This went on for four days, and just when everyone was subconsciously about to sit down cross-legged, An Jingzhi called Old Lady Zhang over.
"Now that you have fully mastered how to draw Qi into your Dantian, I will teach you how to use the spiritual energy in your body. The others can watch from the sidelines so that you can use it in the future as well."
Everyone was immediately excited. The sheer strength and speed displayed by Old Lady Zhang after she entered her body was enough to surprise them. They didn't expect that in Master An's opinion, she hadn't even learned how to use it properly.
Lao Zhou used to be a fan of martial arts novels, but after meeting the original owner, he became a fan of immortal cultivation. His favorite thing was flying with a sword.
He raised his hand and asked, "Master An, are you going to teach Old Lady Zhang how to fly with a sword? Do I need a sword first?"
"Can it fly now?" Lao Yang asked uncertainly.
"Really? Then fly for us and show us. It would be great if you can really fly. We can save money on air tickets in the future!" Old Mrs. Fang said with shining eyes.
An Jingzhi interrupted everyone's chattering questions.
Even he can only fly a few kilometers with his sword at the moment.
These old men and women are really bold.
"Alright everyone, sword flying requires time to train. Fellow Daoist Zhang needs more practice at his current level."
Old Lady Zhang asked in surprise, "Can we really learn to fly with a sword?"
An Jingzhi nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course you can." It would definitely not be possible to fly just by practicing on your own. Even if you can fly, you can only fly a few meters.
But if it is supplemented by other means, it may be possible.
After getting the permission from An Jing, several old men and women immediately started chattering excitedly. The old men were thinking about how free and easy it would be to fly freely among the mountains and rivers.
The old ladies are thinking about being able to fly with swords so that they can save time and money when traveling, shopping and buying groceries in the future.
…
"Listen carefully. The technique I'm teaching you is called the Qi Control Technique. Once you learn it, you'll be able to better mobilize your spiritual energy."
"When you carry heavy objects, you can mobilize the spiritual energy around your body and put it in your hands, so you can lift a thousand pounds without hurting yourself."
"If you gather spiritual energy on your feet and walk quickly, an afterimage will appear. If you master the use of spiritual energy very well, it will produce an effect similar to teleportation."
"As for the sword-flying technique I just mentioned, it's also a form of mastering and utilizing spiritual energy. However, it requires concentrating all of your spiritual energy on a single vehicle. With your current abilities, you're not capable of this yet. Let's not discuss this for now. First, let me explain how to practice this weapon-controlling technique..."
An Jingzhi had just given a brief explanation when all the old men and women were shocked.
Although they are old and don't use the Internet much, it doesn't mean they really know nothing.
Especially after following the original owner in the so-called cultivation of immortals, they became more proactive in learning about this area.
Everyone thought that this spiritual energy was a really good thing. It could turn people into strongmen or martial arts masters.
It can even allow people to fly above the sky.
Old Mrs. Zhang's comprehension is indeed the best among this group of people.
An Jingzhi only explained it once and she understood it completely.
"Now that you understand, do it again according to what I just said."
Old Mrs. Zhang recalled what An Jingzhi said and tried to follow An Jingzhi's method to mobilize the pitiful amount of spiritual energy in her dantian and gather it at the fingertips of both hands.
She pointed her finger at a stone in the distance.
"Bang".
Before anyone could even react, the stone that Old Lady Zhang was pointing at shattered into powder.
"This..." Old Mrs. Fang blinked, stunned with fear.
Just by pointing with two fingers, such a big piece of stone disappeared...
Old Yang was shaking with excitement. "This thing works better than a gun! If I pointed it at an enemy on the battlefield, wouldn't it be like an anti-aircraft gun?!"
"We're all immortal cultivators, how can an anti-aircraft gun compare to us?" Old Zhou said excitedly, "At least it has to be a missile!"
Old Mrs. Zhang looked at her hands in disbelief, then looked at the remaining ashes in the distance.
There were really only ashes left, such a big piece of stone was broken into pieces.
"Master An, am I considered to have mastered this?"
An Jingzhi nodded, then shook his head and said, "I have mastered the basic method of gathering spiritual energy, but I am not proficient in using it yet. I need more practice."
"The use of spiritual energy is not limited to attack. Besides what I have told you, you need to slowly explore its other uses. In addition to meditating and practicing on a daily basis, another task is to master the use of spiritual energy."
Mrs. Zhang replied with a delighted look on her face, "Okay, don't worry, Master An. I will definitely think about it carefully according to your instructions!"
She clenched her fists and for the first time felt that she could live her life again.
Seeing that they were both excited and doubtful, An Jingzhi knew that if he asked them to continue practicing today, they would probably find it difficult to calm down.
But it won’t work if they don’t practice. If they don’t practice, how can they complete the task?
"Everyone seems to be very curious about the use of spiritual energy. And rightly so, mortals are always very yearning for the world of immortal cultivators."
"How about this? Today I'll give you half an hour to ask questions. You can ask any questions you have during this half hour. After that, you must practice diligently."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Yang raised his hand impatiently and asked:
"Master An, I want to ask, regarding what Miss Zhang did just now, which one is more powerful, a gun or a missile?"
"Of course the missile is superior. Fellow Daoist Zhang's spiritual energy can only maintain this much power now." Everyone was a little disappointed.
An Jingzhi continued, "But given time, it might be comparable to missiles."
Old Yang was about to say something when Shi Guozhong beside him interrupted him, "Master An, when will we be able to cultivate to the point where we can fly into the sky and dive into the sea?"
"The cultivation of immortals is a matter of fate and talent. If you want to rely on yourself, it will take at least 40 to 50 years, or at least 20 to 30 years." An Jingzhi said this time was an understatement, because the spiritual energy in this world was so thin.
"The young people here are all in their sixties. Twenty or thirty years? I don't know if anyone will still be around in twenty or thirty years." Shi Guozhong said disappointedly.
Old Zhou asked, "Master An said you can rely on yourself, but is there also a way to rely on external forces? I've seen stories about cultivating immortals that use things like talismans and spaceships."
"But doesn't Master An know how to make spirit-gathering talismans? Can he also make flying talismans?" Old Zhou asked expectantly.
Yes! Master An is a master!
Ten pairs of eyes stared at An Jingzhi.
