There was lightning and thunder outside, and heavy rain poured down.
The oil lamp gave off a weak flame and illuminated the room, bringing light and warmth to the small room. Lu Zhong was lying on the bed covered with a quilt, staring at the roof with a look of despair.
Not long ago, he was happily staying up late to cultivate immortality.
As an ordinary migrant worker, playing games all night on weekends is Lu Zhong's only entertainment method. Compared with various outdoor activities that cost a lot of money, the dopamine secreted by playing games is cheaper.
But he never thought that he would be here just by squinting his eyes.
"Cultivation to immortality, haha, I really came to cultivate immortality..."
Sporadic memories kept popping up in his mind, all left by the original owner of the body who had the same name as him and was twenty-eight years old. It is worth noting that this person was a legendary immortal cultivator.
Yes, it is possible to cultivate immortality in this world.
You can catch the moon in the nine heavens above, and catch turtles in the five oceans below.
But this has nothing to do with him, a passerby monk with four spiritual roots who has average qualifications and lacks gold in the five elements.
To cultivate immortality in this world requires spiritual roots, a magical thing that the roots of trees have on big trees.
Spiritual roots have attributes, which correspond to the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Everyone's natural spiritual roots are roughly equal, but according to the amount of spiritual root attributes, qualifications can be divided into five levels.
The qualifications of the Five Spiritual Roots cannot be carved out of wood. If you are not born into a large clan of cultivators or a famous Immortal Sect, or you are lucky enough to get an extremely amazing opportunity, you will spend your whole life cultivating to the third level of Qi Refining at most.
Lu Zhong's Four Spiritual Roots are of average and lower qualifications. In the world of cultivation, they are just like ordinary goods. If you have the resources, you can cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining. If you are lucky, there is still a slight chance that you can
Become a foundation-building monk respected by thousands of people.
The three spiritual roots further up are intermediate qualifications.
The number of monks with such qualifications is not small, accounting for about one or two percent of the total number of monks. They are basically the backbone of major sects and families. In some small sects and families, they are even trained as little geniuses.
.
If they have the right opportunity, they might be qualified to have a glimpse of the Danjie Avenue.
As for double spiritual roots and mutated spiritual roots, they both belong to the category of cultivating geniuses and are extremely rare.
As long as such a person does not die in the middle of the journey, at least he will have a bright future as an ancestor of the Pill Formation. They are usually well hidden by various clans and sects. They hold them in their hands for fear of dropping them and hold them in their mouths for fear of melting.
It's all about baby's tightness.
There are also monks with single spiritual roots, which are also called "Tianlinggen".
A monk with this kind of qualification is the darling of God, a true super cultivation genius. It is not an exaggeration to say that his cultivation speed is thousands of miles a day. As soon as he is born, he will attract competition from the immortal sects or the great clans that have been passed down from generation to generation, causing trouble in the cultivation world every time.
It was earth-shaking.
Perhaps the magnificent scenery in the world of cultivation is specially designed for people with this qualification.
But as mentioned before, all this has nothing to do with Lu Zhong.
After all, he is just a newbie who has just introduced Qi into his body and has not long since reached the first level of Qi refining.
Such people are undoubtedly at the bottom of the world of cultivation.
"Well, let's make peace with what comes." Lu Zhong has always been content with the situation.
Although he didn't have any hope in his heart, he still began to recall relevant memories and wanted to see what the original body left for him.
In his memory, the cabin he was in was just rented by his predecessor, and he was "cheap" without even staying there for one night.
The layout of the hut is one bedroom and one living room, with a small kitchen built haphazardly. It has been in disrepair for a long time, and many places are rotten and infested with insects. Fortunately, the main structure is relatively safe. Unexpectedly, some houses may be destroyed and people killed.
Danger.
I rummaged here and there and picked up here and there, and found a lot of things.
A book with yellowed paper.
There are about ten pieces of yellow paper.
A set of charm making tools.
A long sword made of hundred-forged stainless steel.
Every meter is half a cylinder.
These are all the relics left to him by the original owner.
"What a poor guy!" Lu Zhong complained helplessly.
I don’t know what the original person was thinking, but he spent all his spiritual stone savings just to rent this dilapidated and dilapidated small house.
The reason for renting a house is to have enough spiritual energy to absorb.
But isn’t this really a momentary fever?
He was so upset that he couldn't sleep, so he simply picked up the book and started reading.
On the cover page, there are six characters "Common Talisman Making Method" written vigorously. The signed author is a person named Qinghe Jushi. He introduces himself at the beginning as a master of making talismans.
At the beginning of this book, Master Qinghe introduced the hierarchy of talismans in the world of cultivation. The talismans in the Qi refining stage are the first level, the talismans in the foundation building stage are the second level, the golden elixir stage talismans are the third level, and so on...
.
The first-level talismans can be subdivided into three levels: upper, middle and lower, which strictly correspond to the junior high school and post-secondary realms of the Qi refining period. Usually, one needs to reach the corresponding small realm before one can draw talismans of that level.
The book "Common Talisman Making Methods" records a total of seven methods of drawing talismans. There are three first-level low-grade talismans, which are the cleaning talisman, the candlelight talisman and the arrow-avoiding talisman.
Dust talisman, light body talisman and exorcism talisman. Finally, there is a method for making a first-class high-grade defensive talisman, the golden light talisman. It is the most lengthy and the most detailed in the book. The layman Qinghe even specially marked a sentence on it.
"The golden light talisman is necessary for us talisman makers to settle down and live a successful life."
After reading the whole book word for word, Lu Zhong knew the original intention of buying this talisman-making book and the set of talisman-making tools. It was obvious that he wanted to follow the path of a talisman-maker in order to find a livelihood for himself.
s method.
After all, practicing cultivation is not easy, and it costs money everywhere.
Just like the small house he lives in now, even though it is full of insects and mildew, the monthly rent still requires a spiritual stone.
Even so, the original body had to break his head to get it.
The original purpose of renting a house is not only because I don't want to become a wandering cultivator in the wilderness, but also because I want to absorb the abundant spiritual energy here so that my cultivation can grow faster.
In other words, rent is equivalent to spiritual energy tax.
Lu Zhong was also worried when he thought about the rent.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If you fail to pay the rent, you will definitely be kicked out and become a homeless ghost.
Based on the average lifespan of a casual cultivator in the wilderness, he concluded that he would not survive more than three days.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhong secretly complained in his heart and quickly recalled the memories related to making talismans.
There are many stories in my memory about the original person practicing making talismans. Unfortunately, his talent for making talismans was mediocre, and he did not receive any guidance from a famous talisman-making master. Apart from a book he bought, he had to rely on his own experience.
.
After using up hundreds of talisman papers to only a dozen or so, I still failed to draw the simplest cleaning talisman.
"If it were me, I guess it wouldn't be much different..." Lu Zhong couldn't help but thought sadly in his heart, and closed the book in his hand.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain in his mind, followed by a feeling of dizziness.
When he opened his eyes again, he found that he had entered a space filled with gray fog.
"What is going on?" Lu Zhong looked around in astonishment and found many glass lens-like objects floating in the diffuse gray fog. He subconsciously touched them gently with his hand, and a clear memory immediately flooded into his mind.
This is a memory about his predecessor. He accidentally dug up a spiritual grass and was being hunted. The strong fear was transmitted along the memory, making Lu Zhong who looked at this memory immersed in the scene.
Everything is a retrospective of the scene at that time.
It is extremely restored and can be said to be extremely real.
Withdrawing from this memory, Lu Zhong found that his head began to hurt.
"Each piece of glass lens represents a memory. Touching it can realize the recall of memory, and you need to pay a certain price. It is what is called spiritual consciousness here..."
After understanding this, he no longer dared to touch the memories floating in the gray mist.
"You can look back on your previous memories, but what's the use?" Lu Zhong squatted on the ground, drawing small circles, thinking hard, and suddenly a flash of light flashed in his heart, and he clapped his hands heavily.
"Yes, you can do this!"
He remembered that the original price of the talisman-making books was quite high because the monks who sold the books would instruct them on how to draw the cleansing talisman.
The knowledge of this world is extremely expensive, and it is impossible to get it for nothing. Without paying some price, you can't even hope to get a little bit of real information from other people's mouths.
It can be said that half of the money I spent on books was spent on instructing how to draw cleansing charms.
This memory should still be floating in the gray mist, and he might be able to gain something if he checks it.
If he can really learn how to make talismans through this, then he will be able to obtain a means of livelihood and gain a foothold.
As soon as he thought about it, a meteor fell in front of him. It was the memory of the cleaning talisman.
"Oh, it also has automatic search!"
Lu Zhong clicked on it without hesitation, and a large number of pictures immediately appeared in his mind.
It was like walking into a noisy market in person, and even the vibration of the wheels rolling by could be transmitted to the soles of the feet. At this time, an old voice spoke unhurriedly.
"Drawing talismans is a careful job, and there is no room for carelessness..."
"Before you start drawing the talisman, I suggest you meditate first, and wait until you calm down before you can draw the talisman again to get twice the result with half the effort..."
"I will only teach you once, so be careful! This is how the cleaning talisman is drawn..."
The sixty-year-old man who set up the stall picked up the talisman pen and dipped it in a jar of talisman ink. His spiritual power was transmitted from the palm of his hand through the tip of the pen to the talisman paper evenly and steadily. His hands were as stable as iron pliers, and he moved smoothly.
Draw a cleansing charm.
"I see. I didn't expect that there are so many tricks. These are not mentioned in the talisman making book."
Lu Zhong was fascinated by what he saw, and he suddenly understood a lot about how to draw the cleansing talisman.
Once...twice. The more times he checks this memory, the greater his gains will be.
After repeatedly checking the memory of this instruction on how to draw a talisman seven or eight times, Lu Zhong paid the price of almost exhausting his spiritual consciousness, and finally he was able to talk on paper about how to draw a cleansing talisman.
