The ironwood forest halfway up Yunxi Mountain is lush and green, with hundreds of black iron trees growing there.
This kind of black iron tree is said to be only found in Yunxi Mountain within a radius of nearly a thousand miles. Originally, there should have been more than two thousand iron trees here, but many of them have been cut down over the years, leaving only less than eight hundred.
In the past, the Yunxi Sect not only used black iron trees to forge weapons, but also used them as materials for building wooden houses and laying floors, etc. At that time, when they chopped down the tree, they would cut off the entire tree, including the roots.
The roots of the black iron tree are excellent forging materials. The roots of one black iron tree can be used to forge twenty high-quality weapons.
It was only in recent years that the Yunxi Sect began to only cut tree branches, without cutting trunks and roots.
At this time, Chen Yun and Xiang Tianlin were staying in the black iron forest halfway up the mountain.
Both of them were holding an axe in their hands.
There was a pile of iron branches not far away. Chen Yun leaned against a black iron tree to rest, while Xiang Tianlin was still on another tree nearby, swinging a hatchet vigorously to chop branches.
"Brother Yun, can you help me cut some too!"
Xiang Tianlin was perched on the black iron tree next to him, sweating profusely and shouting at Chen Yun.
The two had been chopping wood together for seven days.
The job of cutting the black iron branches was originally supposed to be done by the other two miscellaneous disciples. After Chen Yun became a miscellaneous disciple, Dong Fei arranged Chen Yun and Xiang Tianlin to work here the next day.
The two disciples who were chopping wood here before were said to have been assigned to sweep the floor.
Comparing the two, sweeping the floor is easier than chopping wood.
However, for Chen Yun, who possesses demonic blood, chopping wood and sweeping the floor are equally easy. Moreover, he does not need to see other people when chopping wood. He only needs to stay in the woods with Xiang Tianlin.
At the beginning, Chen Yun also helped Xiang Tianlin chop wood. Under normal circumstances, the work that two people would need a day to do could be completed by Chen Yun in half an hour.
Then when it was time for lunch, Xiang Tianlin was asked to go to the mountain to help get food down. When it was time for dinner, Xiang Tianlin was asked to help get food down again.
Chen Yun wandered around in the black iron forest, daydreaming and looking at the scenery, and a day passed by.
During these seven days, Chen Yun occasionally took time to practice the immortal cultivation technique given by Xiang Tianlin.
Until now, Chen Yun still doesn't know what the name of that technique is.
Moreover, there were only formulas and drawings of little people. Chen Yun had no idea how he could inexplicably create more "qi" in his body by relying on formulas and postures.
If you think about it, this is impossible.
However, considering that this is a world of cultivating immortals, maybe you can develop qi through practice.
Chen Yun did not practice seriously, but practiced casually. He was distracted most of the time and only practiced occasionally.
Just today, just now.
Chen Yun suddenly developed the Qi.
Just now, Chen Yun was reciting the mantra silently and meditating according to the posture of the exercises, just like he had done in the previous few days. Suddenly, a faint red thread of energy appeared in his body.
The red thread of air was like an earthworm, constantly swimming inside the body.
At first, Chen Yun thought this thing was disgusting, but he got used to it after watching it for a while.
With the Qi, Chen Yun can now be considered to have successfully practiced Qi.
This is considered the entry point into cultivating immortals, and at the same time, you can also perform introspection like other practitioners.
"Tianlin, I seem to have succeeded in practicing Qi."
Chen Yun leaned against the black iron tree trunk behind him and spoke softly to Xiang Tianlin who was cutting branches from the tree next to him.
"What?"
Xiang Tianlin stopped what he was doing, his face full of disbelief.
"I think I've developed some energy."
Chen Yun repeated it again.
"It's only been a few days? Have you really succeeded in practicing Qi?"
Xiang Tianlin still didn't believe it.
"Really? The Qi I practice is red. What color is yours?"
Chen Yun asked in a soft voice.
"I practiced gray, not red. How can I practice red Qi?" Xiang Tianlin jumped to the ground, walked in front of Chen Yun, and asked curiously, "When we first started practicing Qi, wasn't it all gray? How come yours is red?"
Although Xiang Tianlin has just started practicing Qi, he knows a lot of common sense about cultivating immortals.
As we all know, when every cultivator succeeds in practicing Qi, the Qi they produce is gray. There is no reason to be able to produce Qi of other colors from the beginning.
For many powerful cultivators, the color of their spiritual energy in the later stages is different from that of others. This is because it changes according to the cultivation methods they practice.
At the beginning, everyone should be gray.
When every cultivator first succeeds in practicing Qi, he is equivalent to a piece of gray paper. Apart from gray, there is no other color.
"Are you really red?"
Xiang Tianlin asked again in disbelief.
"It's really red." Chen Yun nodded and said, "Is this abnormal?"
"It's abnormal, so abnormal!"
Xiang Tianlin nodded continuously.
"How many levels of Qi training do I need to reach before I can release spiritual energy?" Chen Yun asked.
"You have to reach the ninth level to release spiritual energy. Isn't it a line of spiritual energy per level in the Qi training stage?" Xiang Tianlin said, "When you reach the ninth level, it means you have nine spiritual energies. Then you can condense the nine spiritual energies into one and release them out of your body."
"Will other people kill me when they see that I have red aura?"
Chen Yun asked worriedly.
"Kill you?" Xiang Tianlin hesitated. "I don't know. I probably won't kill you. You're just a different color than others. There are toads that are born with three legs. There are always exceptions. I don't think they'll kill you."
"With your words, I feel relieved."
Chen Yun said softly.
"No, don't worry too much." Xiang Tianlin quickly raised his hand and said, "I'm just a handyman like you. You can refer to what I say, but don't take it too seriously. Besides, I'm not as good as you."
"To be honest, it's only been a few days, and you've already succeeded in practicing Qi. Your talent is even higher than mine, right?"
Xiang Tianlin couldn't help feeling a little disappointed when he thought that Chen Yun had succeeded in practicing Qigong in such a short time.
Chen Yun couldn't help but smile and said, "My talent is nothing. Didn't I tell you that I have seen fake Dan in his twenties and eighteen-year-old cultivators who are more powerful than fake Dan."
“No, have you really seen a fake Dan in his twenties?”
Xiang Tianlin always thought that Chen Yun was lying when he said he had seen the 29-year-old fake Dan on the day they first met. Now that Chen Yun mentioned it again, and considering that they had been together for seven days, Xiang Tianlin finally felt that Chen Yun was not lying.
"Really? His name is Yu Haolong. Have you heard of him?"
Chen Yun asked softly.
"Yu Haolong?" Xiang Tianlin's mouth suddenly opened wide. "Oh my God, Brother Yun, have you really seen Yu Haolong?"
"Really?"
Chen Yun nodded slightly.
"Is it Yu Haolong from the True Dragon Village?" Xiang Tianlin grabbed Chen Yun's shoulders and asked excitedly, "Is it Yu Haolong, the leader of the True Dragon Village?"
"Besides that Yu Haolong, are there any other Yu Haolongs around here?"
Chen Yun couldn't help but smiled softly.
