Hong Ling stretched her eyebrows, took out pieces of spiritual stones from her body, and arranged them in a circle next to Hong Li.
"One, two, three, four, five, six..."
Hong Ling hesitated for a moment, but gritted her teeth and pressed the spirit stone to the floor: "Six!"
"Uh..."
Hongli looked beside her in confusion, and asked curiously: "Um, teacher... aunt, what are you doing?"
Could it be that it is some mysterious ritual specially used to detect lies?!
Hongli subconsciously hugged her legs tightly and stared at the spiritual stones surrounding her with a wary expression.
Weak, pitiful, helpless, and lazy!
"Huh——"
Hong Ling sighed and said with some distress: "Xiaoli, Xiaoli, my aunt has spent a lot of money on you this time. This is a middle-grade spiritual stone, a total of six yuan!
Even for inner disciples like us, it's heartbreaking enough. Ordinary masters can't be like this, but who told you, this kid, to be so lovable?"
"Ah..."
Hong Li's brain was in chaos. She only learned about spirit stones after coming to the sect. They could not only assist in cultivation, but also serve as hard currency among practitioners, and their value was far beyond that of ordinary gold and silver.<
/p>
It's just that she doesn't even have a low-grade spiritual stone now, and the special spiritual stone inlaid in the secret room is not allowed to be taken down...
As a result, Hong Li didn't know the specific value of the spirit stone, but seeing the distressed look on Hong Ling's face, it was probably very precious.
Of course, there is another possibility: my aunt is actually a poor person!
Then here comes the problem.
"So, what is this going to do?"
Hong Li scratched her head and managed to pass the so-called test. Why is there another level?
"Everything is ready, all that's left is the finishing touch!"
Hong Ling's eyes brightened: "This group of disciples have not yet entered the Taoist stage of refining their Qi. I think Xiaoli, you can try to get the first place. Not only can you directly enter the outer sect, but there will definitely be help from the sect."
Special rewards!"
"Well, let's not mention anything else..."
Hongli was puzzled: "Am I not an outer disciple now?"
"Ah ah ah, of course not."
Hong Ling waved her hand: "As we all know, generally only those who are in the Qi Refining Period can be considered as an outer sect of my Five Elements Sect, that is, a disciple in the true sense.
As for those of you who have just started, you are still in the internship period at most. The reason why you are not allowed to go out is because you are not qualified to walk in the world as disciples of the Five Elements Sect.
Of course, safety issues are also one of the reasons to consider.
Therefore, if you want to become a true disciple of the Five Elements Sect, hurry up and enter the outer sect!
Well, I will first teach you how to refine your Qi. If you successfully refine your Qi within two years, you can officially join."
"Then what if the Qi refining fails within two years? Will you be expelled from the sect?"
"No, generally as long as you don't make any principled mistakes, violate the sect's rules, and be expelled from the sect, there will be no such severe punishment."
Hong Ling shook her head: "I'm just turning into a registered disciple for the time being. As for the treatment, not to mention compared with the outer sect, even your current internship treatment is not as good.
Just like this secret practice room, as well as your daily food and clothing, aren't you charged for everything?
But if you are a registered disciple and want to use sect equipment or anything else, you need to pay."
After a pause, Hong Ling smiled: "But if you are promoted to the outer sect, each disciple will have his own courtyard and can live in the spiritually rich mountain gate. At the same time, the residence has its own training room and other facilities, and more basic necessities, food, housing and transportation."
There are many preferential treatment.”
"Oh ho, that sounds great."
Hong Li blinked her big eyes: "What does that have to do with me? I'm just at the ninth level of body training!"
"Doesn't this give you a chance to break through?"
Hong Ling pointed to the spiritual stones around Hong Li: "I'm here to protect you. You use the Qi refining method to activate these pure spiritual energy, pull your own Qi machine back to your innate nature, and achieve the Qi refining stage.
Based on your accumulation and understanding, I think it’s just the right time!”
"Huh?"
Hongli swallowed: "Well, I think I have to prepare more..."
She has a shitty accumulation!
"It's okay, it's just the first step of refining qi. Even if you fail, there won't be a big price, and with my protection, everything will be foolproof!"
Hong Ling waved her hand nonchalantly.
Who is she? A master in the foundation building stage!
Just refining qi is child's play!
"Really!"
Hongli's eyes lit up: "Can there be many trial and error opportunities without problems?"
"Haha, that's not true."
Hong Ling's words made Hong Li's heart skip a beat: "If someone with no foundation wants to forcibly practice qi, it may cause the accumulated qi and blood to drain away and the meridians to flow back. Not only will they not be able to go any further, they may also fall into the realm."
."
"Ah this..."
"Hahaha, I'm kidding!"
Hong Ling couldn't help but laugh out loud: "This kind of mistake can only be made by beginners among beginners. Xiaoli, you have already mastered the Qi Refining Method, so you don't have to worry about this kind of thing at all, hahaha!" Hongli: "..."
"What?"
Hongling stopped laughing in confusion: "My joke, isn't it funny?"
"Hahaha, funny, really funny!"
Hongli smiled, tears welling up in her eyes. It was so funny, she was afraid it would become a joke soon!
"In this case, let's get started without further ado!"
"That..."
"What, is there a problem?"
"No, no, my sitting posture just now was a little uncomfortable. I just adjusted it a little!"
"Oh, let's start quickly!"
"..."
……
Hongli sits cross-legged among the six spiritual stones, with a peaceful expression and no shock at honor or disgrace. One can't help but admire him at the sight of him: He is indeed a good young man in cultivation. He can immediately enter a state of calmness, and his innocent heart is full of sincerity.
!
My heart is as calm as a ghost!
Hongli stopped thinking.
……
"No, calm down, calm down, sharpen your weapon in the face of battle, it will be a waste if you are unhappy!"
Hongli roared angrily in her heart to comfort herself: "Just use this time to quickly go over and understand the Qi refining method that you have memorized!
Very good, it’s become simpler. Let me think about it, I understood it last time...the second word in the first line of the first paragraph of the first page!"
"..."
Haha, I really belong to you, the past me!
Hong Li smiled and shed tears. In the past, I really didn’t leave any way for myself to survive, right!
Qi refining, as the name suggests, involves spiritual energy, and is a process of refining acquired turbid energy in the body back to innate energy.
After reaching this level, the style of fighting can be changed compared to before. For example, throwing a fire method, condensing a water method, etc., it does not necessarily have to be close combat with fists and fists.
Of course, your physical fitness will not fall behind either.
In the process of refining qi, the practitioner is like the locomotive, pulling the carriage called acquired turbid qi, burning the energy called spiritual energy, polishing it through the correct meridians, and upgrading it to an innate high-end carriage.
At this time, Hongli, who was the locomotive, was hesitating before the fork in the road.
Which way should we go?
I remember it was written about the Qi Refining Method, hmm...
That’s right!
Hong Li's eyes lit up, and she confidently guided the turbid energy in a certain direction, it must be this way!
"Boom!"
[Your bound person (Hongli) failed to refine Qi, the meridians were reversed, and Qi and blood were lost... The realm is being synchronized, the loss failed, the realm remains unchanged, and the current realm is the ninth level of body training.]
【Heiyang:?】
[Hei Yang: What happened?]
"..."
Hongli returned to the fork in the road again, her face calm.
