Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Begins to Practice and Enters Qi Training
Ali walked around the stalactites that had formed a stone forest standing in the water, followed the instructions, and finally locked onto a column that had turned jade-like to the point of being transparent. A glowing fragment could be faintly seen in the middle of the column.
As the distance got closer, Ali's own spiritual energy, which had been depleted due to forcibly commanding the intelligent spirit, quickly recovered.
The throbbing feeling in her heart became more and more obvious. She tried to use her talent to enter the stalactite, but was directly repelled out by a repulsive force. She tentatively pushed the stalactite hard, but it didn't move at all.
It seems that I can only take the whole thing away...
Ali walked around the stalactite, which was thicker than several people could hug, several times, observing the connection at the top. He was a little worried about how to take the stalactite out.
It's too thick. When the system collects items, it will collect the connected items as a whole into the system space. This is not just a simple matter of collecting a stalactite into the system.
This stalactite extends to the end and is likely to even connect to the entire continental plate in this area.
[It is recommended that the host first practice the mental method, and after entering the Qi training stage, use his own talents to melt and absorb the top connection part.]
Ali paused.
"Can you hear my heart?"
The system does not have the ability to spy on the host. It can only receive the host's strong and purposeful voice and requests, and spontaneously search within the range of the spirit gathering array for items and specific acquisition plans that are beneficial to the host. If the host does not like this, this function can be disabled.
"No."
Ali weighed the pros and cons for a moment, and finally decided to keep this function.
Looking at the stalactites in front of him, Ali decided to follow the system's advice and sat cross-legged on the water, his consciousness gradually sinking into the sea of knowledge.
In the vast universe and among the dazzling stars, a huge golden book stands.
This is Ali’s sea of consciousness.
With Ali's arrival, golden words appeared, spiritually emerged from the book, and entered Ali's consciousness.
Ali felt his whole body leaping with joy, and the nameless chanting sounded in his ears.
In the outside world, the spiritual energies that were originally close to Ali seemed to have discovered something, and various spiritual energies swarmed in, competing to pour into Ali's body.
Fortunately, Ali's body had been tempered to be strong enough in the previous body training. Otherwise, when he first practiced Qi, such a huge amount of spiritual energy would have poured into his body and would have exploded.
A huge heat flowed through the meridians. With every step, a few strands of heat would be divided up by the nearby cells to replenish themselves. At this moment, the spiritual energy that Ali had divided up by his body cells alone was hundreds of times the amount used by an ordinary person entering the Qi training stage.
Fortunately, the mental method rotated very quickly, and the cells were ultimately unable to rob everything. The airflow finally followed a peculiar route and circled through Ali's eight extraordinary meridians, and finally rotated at the dantian, condensing into a small gray-black cyclone.
As the cyclone condensed, Ali relaxed completely.
Every cell in the body seemed to be awakened, and the operation of the mind method spontaneously became faster, making Ali feel a sense of clarity and comfort like a cool breeze blowing in the face in the hot summer.
Fortunately, Ali still remembered his purpose. He turned his mind a few more times before reluctantly opening his eyes.
Qi Refining Stage, Success.
Without any conscious input, the mind method continued to operate on its own, but its speed instantly dropped many times. Most of the spiritual energy drawn into the body was absorbed by the various cells of the body during its journey. By the time it reached the cyclone, only a pitiful amount remained...
He felt that the strength of his body seemed to be growing stronger all the time following the spontaneous movement of his mind. Although the cyclone expanded very slowly, Ali didn't care much.
This is fine...
For her, who possesses natural skills, she values physical fitness more than the control of spiritual energy.
She pushed hard on her feet, stepped on the stalactites, and after a few jumps, she sank to the top where the stalactites connected to the stone wall.
Ali stretched out his hand and pressed the part where the stalactite connected to the stone wall. As his mind turned, he started to circulate his own mental skills.
The place where the stalactites meet the stone wall is like snow that has begun to melt, slowly sinking in.
A vast energy that was completely different from spiritual energy surged into Ali's body. Before Ali could be alert, the spontaneous feeling of joy coming from his body made Ali let down his guard. With the influx of this energy, Ali's realm rose rapidly as if there was no barrier.
Second floor…third floor…fourth floor…
As the connection became only as thick as a washbasin, Ali finally let go of his hand, hugged one side of the huge stalactite, and with a force, he finally broke the stalactite off from the stone wall above and put it into the system space.
Feeling the attraction completely disappear, Ali finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that she was right. What was inside this stalactite was what her mother left for her.

Main Quest 1: Give your sect a name and determine its location (Reward: Nine Transformations Heart Sutra)
Side Quest 1: Foundation Building (You haven't even reached the Foundation Building stage yet. You can't even protect yourself in this world, so how can you protect the inheritance? Please complete the Foundation Building within 1 year.) (Reward: ?? Fragments)
Ali looked at the main task, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said:
"Let's call him Tian Yan. Everything we do is God's will."
[The sect's name has been confirmed: Tianyan Sect, and has been updated to the subsystem.]
Main Quest 1 Updated: Please find a suitable location for the sect and establish a stronghold (Reward: Nine Transformations Heart Sutra)
[Trigger side quest: inheritance]
[Host, please recruit 10 outer disciples for the sect]
A series of prompt sounds flashed by.
Looking for a place to stay?
Ali was silent for a while.
When she first came out and learned about the main mission, her first thought was to establish the sect's headquarters in her own mountain village.
She has a large spiritual vein, the foundation left to her by her parents, and the villagers she knows as friends. She can also select some people from them to join the sect, and her start might be much smoother.
With his own mountain village as the core, he could slowly expand out and recruit some refugees, and perhaps he could form a huge force.
But the reality shattered her ideas.
She doesn't plan to stay in the village, so choosing the next place to stay will be much more difficult.
Regarding the use of land deeds, unless she wants to find a deserted place in the wilderness to open a sect, she can only compete with other villages for some territorial sovereignty.
She had originally considered Takigakure Village.
The terrain is favorable, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and because of the existence of the tailed beasts, Takigakure Village rarely participates in wars and has little communication with the outside world.
The natural waterfall barrier prevented outsiders from easily noticing what was happening inside. Their country was small, and with the ninja villages far more powerful than the daimyo, and economic constraints, the civilians of Takinin Village didn't even have to pay land taxes to the daimyo, but instead paid them directly to the ninja villages...
No matter how you look at it, Takinin Village is the most suitable place for the development of her sect.
But after the system's previous impact with the so-called subsystem similar to a mobile phone in each person's hand, Ali suddenly thought of a better base.
The Sky Fortress of the Sky Country...
She almost forgot that this is the extremely technologically advanced ninja world!
It can fly, fight, hide underground, and enter the sea. As long as there is enough energy to drive it, it can go wherever it wants.
It's really a drought or flood, and the black technology is outrageous.
Once she gets the aerial fortress, she will upgrade the fortress's raw materials and add defensive formations, and it will be a perfect sect base.
As for energy?
She slowly turned around and looked in the direction she came from...
Ali quickly left the stalactite forest and reached out to touch a half-exposed spirit stone.
"System, collect"
Since she was leaving, she took this seemingly ownerless spiritual vein with her.
[Ding, all the spirit stones and the connected spirit veins have been collected. The total collected is: Top-grade spirit vein * 1 (damaged, currently producing only low-mid-grade spirit stones), Top-grade spirit stones * 3576, Top-grade spirit stones * 32680, Mid-grade spirit stones * 70179, Low-grade spirit stones * 1567]
[Detected that the host has received a large amount of spirit stones, whether to redeem and return the points]
Ali widened his eyes in surprise. He originally thought that system points could only be obtained through system tasks, but he didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise.
Thinking of this, Ali asked concisely, "System, how to get points?"
Ways to earn points:
1. After completing the task, you can get corresponding reward points
2. All spiritual objects, such as spiritual stones, spiritual minerals, spiritual tools, spiritual plants, elixirs, talismans, array plates, etc., can be exchanged.
3. Exchange for Innate Chaos Energy (This path is unlocked after the host establishes their foundation)
4. The subsystem sells items and earns corresponding points and price difference.
Ali's eyes stayed on the third one for a long time, then he asked
'How is the exchange rate calculated?'
[1 low-grade spirit stone = 1 point, medium-grade 10 points, high-grade 100 points, and top-grade 10,000 points.
The exchange of spiritual plants and minerals is flexibly evaluated based on the spiritual energy value and characteristics of the spiritual plants.
Secondary processed spiritual tools, elixirs, talismans, and array plates are flexibly evaluated based on the grade and corresponding efficacy detected in real time.
In my opinion, except for the spirit stones which are fixed, everything else is flexible, right?
And the difference between the best-grade spirit stones and other spirit stones is so huge? It jumped directly from 100 to 10,000!
[Top-grade spirit stones have the ability to absorb spiritual energy to a certain extent. Even the energy will not burst out instantly when used, causing damage to the user.]
Ali nodded, but didn't pursue the matter any further.
Get rich...
This was Ali's first thought.
"First, use low-grade and medium-grade spirit stones to pay back the points you owe."
[1200 medium-grade spirit stones and 300 low-grade spirit stones have been deducted, and the host's remaining points are 0]
[It is detected that the host has paid off the outstanding balance. The system mall has been opened. The host can check it by himself.]
Ali did not pay direct attention to the system mall, after all, he had seen this setting many times in novels.
Anyway, the mall will not go away, she can check it at any time. She is now a little worried about another problem.
"Why don't you first deduct all the low-grade spirit stones?" I'm about to have an obsessive-compulsive disorder!
[It is recommended that the host reserve some low-grade spirit stones]
"Why?"
[The host will soon welcome the first round of disciples to the sect. Even though the number of disciples is small at first and there is no need for a very clear subsidy system, the host is still responsible for their cultivation.]
For those who have just started practicing, top-grade spirit stones are too precious. Although low-grade spirit stones have less spiritual energy, they are gentler and safer to use than medium- and high-grade spirit stones. They will not be damaged by the huge amount of spiritual energy that suddenly surges into the body, breaking through the meridians.
Ali quickly woke up from his dream of getting rich quickly.
The corners of her mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but think of the tens of thousands of disciples in a sect in the novels about cultivating immortals, and then thought of the scene where the number of people in the sect increased in the later period. Thinking of the spirit stones that needed to be spent every month, Ali's scalp went numb.
It seems that when I look at the system mall later, I can't just buy whatever I want.
As the leader of a sect, she has to consider the development of the sect...
Even if this sect now only has two commanders...
