Shopkeeper Xiao's eyes flashed, and he sighed with a smile: "It seems that Master Su is very persistent about this matter?"
Su Tong's eyes stared at him, "How can a person live only one life and only one autumn of vegetation? Just a few dozen or even a hundred years are not enough. As the saying goes, the music of blackbirds in Xitou can make wind and rain come and go. Who doesn't long for that kind of power?
?”
"The painting of blackbirds at the head of the stream and the music of the blackbirds can't stop the wind and rain?"
Shopkeeper Xiao murmured and looked at Su Tong meaningfully, "Master Su is very talented in literature, but there is no such thing as an immortal in this world. Don't be misled by legends."
"Is it misleading?" Su Tong said meaningfully: "If it is really misleading, then why does Guibao need so much mithril? It can't be just for fun, right?"
Shopkeeper Xiao also looked at Su Tong for a while, then suddenly laughed and said: "It seems that Master Su is also a thoughtful person. I'm afraid you did it deliberately by selling the mithril to us, right?"
"God did it intentionally. There is only one reason why I sold my silver, and that was lack of money."
Su Tong was complaining in his heart, but on the surface he was sitting upright and sneered:
"Shopkeeper Xiao, please don't tell me secret words. Now my martial arts has reached the end of the world. If I want to make further progress, I need to take that step. And I have been looking for this step for a long time. If I have the opportunity,
I won't miss it, and I hope Shopkeeper Xiao will make it happen.
Besides, I also believe that Jubaozhai can do business all over the continent. If there is no information and methods in this regard, I will not believe it. Su is asking you for advice sincerely. If shopkeeper Xiao doesn’t want to
That's what I said, but don't try to deceive me."
Su Tong's words are very clear. If you don't want to say it, just say so, but don't lie to me.
Shopkeeper Xiao was silent for a moment, and the polite smile on his face gradually faded away, and then he said: "Since Master Su has said this, it would be my fault if Xiao continues to be perfunctory.
Then Xiao, let me tell you, the theory of immortals is indeed illusory, no one knows whether there are immortals in the world."
Hearing this, Su Tong's heart froze. Are all the legends false?
But then I heard Shopkeeper Xiao say: "The legends passed down in the world today are actually just left behind by the forerunners who pursued the path to becoming immortals. We generally call this process cultivation. Throughout the ages, countless sages have made great efforts on this path.
After countless efforts and even lives, and countless years of exploration, we have reached today’s situation.”
Speaking of this, Shopkeeper Xiao showed emotion on his face, "Actually, over the years, Xiao has met too many people who want to take this road, but most of them either died halfway or died on the way.
Die in obscurity. Xiao will ask you one last time, do you want to continue listening?"
Su Tong smiled faintly: "Although he died nine times, he still has no regrets."
Shopkeeper Xiao looked at him deeply: "Okay, I hope you will never forget what you said today."
After pondering for a while, Shopkeeper Xiao said: "In general, cultivation and martial arts are different. Martial arts practice focuses on understanding one's own body and developing its potential to achieve the purpose of improvement, while cultivators believe that human power sometimes
How can we be poor compared to the power of heaven and earth? Therefore, cultivators focus on comprehending heaven and earth and using the power of heaven and earth to transform their bodies in order to achieve the goal of immortality.
Of course, this is just the ideal of the sages. So far, Mr. Xiao has never seen such a person.
After countless years of arrangement by countless ancestors, the road to immortality has been divided into several realms. The first is the Qi-entraining realm. Only those who have entered this realm are qualified to cultivate. The next is the Foundation-building realm. This realm is actually for monks.
What they lay the foundation for is the realm of pill formation. Only when they reach this realm can monks be able to exert their own realm. After the pill formation is the Nascent Soul. After reaching this realm, it is easy to control the wind and rain, and Shou Yuan can even more.
Up to three thousand years."
"Three thousand years?" Su Tong asked doubtfully: "Didn't it mean that it would shine with the sun and the moon and that the heaven and earth would be immortal?"
"Such a big tone, the sun and the moon shine together and the heaven and the earth are immortal. Even a real immortal would not dare to say such big words." Shopkeeper Xiao was very happy by Su Tong's words. He wanted to make a few sarcastic remarks, but he just thought of this.
I'm just a newbie, and I have no interest in cursing.
Then he waved his hand in disinterest: "That's all, it's a waste of effort to tell you. You will understand these things later."
Seeing that Shopkeeper Xiao had lost interest in speaking, Su Tong felt bad in his heart and quickly asked: "Shopkeeper Xiao, you haven't told me how to embark on the path of cultivation."
"There are only a few ways to enter the path of cultivation. Either join a sect, become a casual cultivator, or join a certain cultivation family to work for them to obtain resources."
Su Tong hesitated and asked, "What resources do you mean?"
"Elixirs, exercises, magic weapons, etc."
Shopkeeper Xiao explained, and when he saw Su Tong's confused look, he patiently explained: "Cultivation is not as good as martial arts. Everyone in the world knows that the poor are poor in culture and the rich in martial arts. But who knows that cultivation is really a bottomless pit. Let's not mention it.
Cultivation skills, such as spiritual stones, elixirs, magic weapons needed by monks, armors and even various things needed in daily life are very different from those of ordinary people. These are all bottomless pits. If there are not enough
My background is that cultivation is a joke. And sometimes even if you have resources, you may not be guaranteed to succeed in cultivation, which is the most despairing thing."
"hiss……"
Su Tong took a breath and listened to what Shopkeeper Xiao said. The difficulty of cultivating the truth is much harder than imagined. No wonder when reading the articles on cultivating immortals in the past, those people always talked about the law of the wealthy couple. This
It's not unreasonable.
Moreover, Su Tong also heard the term spirit stone uttered from Shopkeeper Xiao's mouth. He was no stranger to this term. Almost all online articles described spirit stones as necessary for cultivating immortals.
He then asked: "Shopkeeper Xiao, forgive me for being ignorant, but what is the use of this spiritual stone?"
"Spiritual stones." Anyway, we have said enough today, and Shopkeeper Xiao doesn't mind saying more. "Spiritual stones are things that must be used on the path of cultivation, and their effect is just like the effect of money on mortals.
The reason why cultivators are different from ordinary people is that they have to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and take it into their bodies to create themselves. In this process, whether they are practicing, building formations, or refining magic weapons and elixirs, they need to use spiritual energy.
Shi, if you don’t have the spirit stone, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky to practice cultivation. Do you understand what I’m saying?”
Su Tong nodded. He finally understood. Cultivation is like rushing on the road. If you want to reach your destination, you must speed up. People without spirit stones can only walk on two legs. If you worry about sufficient spirit stones and supplies,
Different, people can get in the car, and the speed is naturally much faster than walking.
