"The breakthrough from the third level of Qi training to the fourth level of Qi training increased life span by four years. However, this breakthrough only increased the life span by three years."
After thinking about it, Meng Zhou understood the rules.
The former is a key step from the early stage of Qi training to the middle stage of Qi training, and the nature of mana has undergone great changes.
But this time the breakthrough is more about the improvement of the magic power, but the change in the nature of the magic power is not big.
Moreover, after adapting to the state after this breakthrough, Meng Zhou had a distinct experience.
The improvement in strength brought about by this breakthrough is not obvious. If his strength before the breakthrough was 100, his strength after this breakthrough would only be around 110 at most.
Because he has perfected a large number of martial arts, his combat power far exceeds the scope of the normal fourth level of Qi training, or even the fifth level of Qi training.
The greater significance of this breakthrough is to make his foundation thicker and more solid. Secondly, the increase in magic power increases the endurance time of the battle.
Meng Zhou looked at the "perfection" that filled the screen among the skill items. Only the Cleansing Talisman and the Knot Method still had room for improvement.
However, all the 190 talismans purchased last time have been used up. In addition to the 190 finished cleaning talismans, there are also newly completed cleaning talismans that have been upgraded to the level of Dacheng.
As for the knot method, he was still struggling with the first rubbing stone carving. With the more insights brought by the continuous improvement of the cleansing talisman, he took a few more steps forward.
However, there is still a long way to go before it can be completely cracked, and this cannot be achieved through hard work. It will have to wait until his understanding of the Tao of Talisman reaches a further level.
"Continue to practice new martial arts?"
The most important thing in the memory of the former master was various martial arts, but after thinking about it, Meng Zhou gave up this idea.
He has mastered enough types of martial arts now and has formed a relatively complete system. Even if he takes two or three more martial arts to perfection, the improvement in combat power will be minimal.
When he perfects the first martial skill, his combat power will be increased by 50. When he perfects the second martial skill, his combat power will be improved by only 30 or even 20.
Now that he has perfected ten martial arts, the additional combat power that can be gained by completing the eleventh martial skill is only two or three points.
Diminishing marginal benefits are vividly reflected here.
"So, how many spells should I choose?"
Adding a few spells to your arsenal can indeed greatly enrich your combat and survivability capabilities.
But after thinking about it carefully, Meng Zhou gave up on the most common attack or defense spells. The effects of the ten perfect martial arts in these aspects are no weaker than these spells.
After thinking carefully, Meng Zhou took out a yellowed ancient book from his storage bag.
"Medicine Master's Notes"
Pharmacist is a profession focused on medical treatment.
It takes basic skills with matching characteristics as the core, supplemented by a series of special spells, to build a complete and self-consistent professional system.
In this "Medicine Master's Notes", there are more than thirty kinds of magic spells mentioned, some of which are close to myths.
There are eight types of detailed cultivation methods.
Interrogation, inspection, golden light, detoxification, treatment, regulating qi, rejuvenation, and cultivating energy.
After careful consideration, Meng Zhou decided to include detoxification and healing techniques into his recent training plan.
The master has practiced detoxification before, and it is also very practical. It is necessary for a person to master such a spell when walking alone.
The same is true for healing, and this spell is quite a bit like a panacea.
But at the end of the day, the two spells he appointed had not yet been mastered, but the consultation and inspection skills were successfully mastered.
Because the introduction to these two spells is so simple, every time he enters meditation practice and conducts internal self-examination, it can be regarded as pre-practice for these two spells.
【Introduction to Diagnosis:5/25
Introduction to Inspection:5/25]
…
The next day, end the practice and check the results of the night's practice.
Cultivation progress +3, skill experience +22.
The efficiency of practice has dropped a lot.
And this is also due to the fact that the consumption of Lingmi Lingcha yesterday was nearly doubled compared to previous days.
However, the Water Nourishment and Moisturizing Technique is now at Dacheng 537/600, and it is not far away from another breakthrough. This "downturn" will not last long.
Just this morning, the former master had successfully mastered the detoxification technique. Just when Meng Zhou was planning to make a big effort and master the healing technique as well.
Meng Zhou's heart moved. He opened the stone door and pushed aside the flowing fog curtain covering the door. A small paper bird lingering outside the door swayed and landed on Meng Zhou's hand.
The spiritual energy dissipated and turned into an ordinary letter.
The Fetion Technique can lock the target position within a hundred miles based on the aura reserved in advance and accurately deliver information.
But the disadvantages are also very obvious. It is not very fast and can easily be destroyed or intercepted by others.
Of course, as a communication method commonly used by many middle- and high-level monks in Nuanyun Valley, everyone consciously did not mess with this aspect and maintained a tacit understanding to maintain the safety and smooth flow of this aspect.
Meng Zhou started to read the contents above, went back to the house to tidy up, and then went out to the market.
Less than half an hour later, Meng Zhou stood in front of the door of a small courtyard and knocked lightly on the door.
"Uncle Zhou." Yu Peng opened the door and welcomed Meng Zhou into the house.
When Meng Zhou entered the small courtyard, Chu Zheng was also coming out of the house.
Chu Zheng quickly led him to sit in the pavilion next to him.
As soon as Meng Zhou sat down, he asked him why he called him here.
Chu Zheng said: "This is what happened..."
As Chu Zheng told it, Meng Zhou gradually understood what was going on.
It is not a secret among the professional circles who are close to him that Chu Zheng forced himself to attack higher levels of Talismanism at an old age, which resulted in physical weakness and disease.
Now that his body has recovered, he has successfully taken a step further in Talisman Dao and has become a first-level top-level Talisman Maker. He is a late bloomer and will blossom with age. When he meets old friends in the circle, he can't help but show off.
Whether intentional or not, everyone's focus is not on the fact that he is getting older and taking further steps, but is curious about why he recovered so quickly and completely.
Chu Zheng did not tell Meng Zhou directly, but he thought about the matter in private. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was an opportunity, so he called Meng Zhou to explain it to him.
As for the final choice, of course it is up to the person involved, Meng Zhou, to decide for himself.
…
After listening to Chu Zheng's story, Meng Zhou pondered.
Chu Zheng is now nearly eighty years old. His talent is not very good, and his cultivation level is not high either. He is only at the sixth level of Qi training.
Given his age and physical condition, it is difficult for him to advance further in his cultivation.
But as a Talisman Maker, even before this adventure hits the first-level high-level Talisman Maker, as a first-level mid-level Talisman Maker, it is enough for him to firmly take root in Nuanyun Valley.
He has lived in Nuanyun Valley for more than forty years, and the people he has the most contact with and the best relationships with almost all have the same label as him.
Their cultivation levels are neither high nor low, and their professional levels are neither high nor low. Moreover, they are all quite old and their bodies have already passed their peak.
On the one hand, as you get older and your body has passed its peak state, it will become worse and worse, and it will become less and less able to withstand the torment.
On the other hand, as a professional, as long as you persist and never slack off, with the accumulation of experience, the growth of vision, and the advancement of age, no matter how fast or slow, you will gain more and more insights, and you will move up on your career path.
Over time and over time, the earth becomes a mountain.
And similarly, as a professional, it is difficult to resist the urge to move forward.
But a contradiction arises. The accumulation in the brain is enough, but the body is decaying.
If you're not careful, you can easily pull off the egg.
Therefore, elderly professionals like Chu Zheng have some chronic illnesses and injuries, whether mild or severe.
Chu Zheng spread this phenomenon in front of Meng Zhou, and at the same time, he also put a choice in front of Meng Zhou.
"So, should I debut as a pharmacist in Nuanyun Valley?"
