The figure forms a meditation mudra, its chest rising and falling, breathing in and out in a specific way. When it absorbs a stream of spiritual energy into its body, the mudra begins to change.
Almost every meridian requires a hand seal.
The handprint seemed like a rein, firmly controlling the energy and guiding it along a specific path.
The path is relatively simple, with only twelve meridians corresponding to twelve hand seals.
Finally, place your hands together and press down on your lower abdomen (Dantian) to subdue your breath and transform it into the practitioner's magical power.
One cycle is one instance of circulating Qi.
The initial stage of cultivation, guiding qi into the body, involves repeatedly going through this process. It is tedious and requires constant concentration. If the hand seals are wrong, the qi will stagnate in the body, resulting in anything from vomiting blood and getting injured to going into qi deviation, becoming a cripple, or even dying.
The "Cloud and Rain Green Wood Skill" is said to have a low probability of causing qi deviation. First, it involves fewer meridians and fewer magic seals, thus saving energy. Second, the true qi is gentle, so qi deviation generally does not result in death.
However, this also means slow cultivation speed, poor combat ability, and low potential.
Li Changzhou was already familiar with all of this. When he was in the cultivation technique shop, he relied on his powerful divine sense to break through the magic array that rejected divine sense and read the jade slip without being affected by the spiritual contract.
But does a Qi Refining stage spirit contract really bind him?
Besides, he's just a magic weapon now?
After studying it for a long time and finishing the cake, the fairy said, "It's quite simple, but I don't understand where these meridians are. What would happen if I went to the wrong one?"
[First, read the book, "On the Circulation of Qi Through the Meridians."]
In the following time, Shenxian'er began to read books, including cultivation books, travelogues, and miscellaneous writings.
"There are seven sects around Wangyue Lake. Every year during the Mid-Autumn Festival, they hold a grand competition to determine the spiritual energy of the moon and water in Wangyue Lake based on their ranking. Qingyue Sect ranked third in the last competition."
As she read on, the fairy realized something was wrong.
"The Azure Moon Sect is by a large lake? I don't see a lake! I thought I was in the mountains!"
This lake might be larger than some oceans on other planets.
"Planet?"
The stars in the sky.
"My Lord, have you been to the heavens? Have you even been to the stars?"
[The gorilla can't get carried away.]
"ah?"
Go read your book.
The fairy had no choice but to continue reading.
Li Changzhou pondered his experiences along the way, occasionally thinking of Li Qianxia and the others.
After a moment of silence, the fairy said again, "My lord, the book says that cultivation requires spiritual roots. Without spiritual roots, it's like not having a bucket; you can't draw water and therefore can't cultivate."
[You don't necessarily have to use a bucket to fetch water, and the water you fetch doesn't have to be water from a specific place. The world is vast.]
"Then I..." Shenxian'er didn't understand to begin with, and Li Changzhou's words only made her more confused.
These things are too far removed from your life. Just focus on cultivating your Qi. You have spiritual roots, so don't worry.
Li Changzhou had already finished reading the book. The way to verify whether someone has spiritual roots is simple: if their meridians are intact and their Qi Sea is leak-free, then they have spiritual roots.
Based on this, the stronger the meridians, the larger the Qi Sea, and the better the spiritual root.
Some special spiritual entities have unique meridians and energy centers, which can transform spiritual energy into special spiritual energy.
These things cannot be seen from the outside; beauty or ugliness, height or shortness are all unrelated to spiritual roots.
The only thing that affects appearance is disability. Even if one has spiritual roots, one will be unable to cultivate certain techniques due to the lack of certain meridians.
The fairy not only has spiritual roots, but they are also very good.
Choosing the human race at the start is a hellish start. Li Changzhou saved her from the crisis of being hanged. If she didn't have a spiritual root, then Value Game simply didn't want Li Changzhou to play.
Although Value Game hated Li Changzhou, it was always fair—the immortal child had excellent spiritual roots, came with information about the cultivation world, and was worth four spirit stones (sold for six).
Li Changzhou didn't know how the others had started, but under the same conditions, he believed he had done his best.
The immortal memorized the operating path and mastered the twelve hand seals to the point where he no longer needed to be distracted before he nervously began to breathe and exhale.
"Sitting cross-legged calms the mind, bringing relaxation and natural tranquility."
"Gather your spirit and energy, and send it into the Niwan point (the center of the head), until it is continuous and subtle."
During my breathing, there was a particularly special moment when my breath was incredibly fresh, and even tasted sweet.
I've caught a glimpse of inspiration!
She quickly changed hand gestures.
After only six attempts, Shenxian'er successfully guided Qi into her body, and a faint aura appeared in her Qi Sea.
A top-notch cultivator.
This is the reward: choosing the human race as your faction and surviving the demons at the beginning will inevitably bring greater benefits.
"My Lord God, I did it!" Shenxian'er opened her eyes, pulled out a tree branch and screamed. She then got out of bed and hopped around like a rabbit.
Finally, he collapsed onto the bed and tossed and turned for a while, like he was swimming.
Exhausted, she lay on the bed, panting. Once her breathing had calmed, her eyes were vacant, and she muttered to herself in a daze, "I've become an immortal."
Have you solved the problem of food and clothing?
"Having enough to eat and wear?"
What do you eat after you finish the pancake?
Shenxian'er's beautiful face suddenly collapsed; the problem was serious, as there were only two cakes left.
Although she had some silver, one spirit crystal in the market could be exchanged for ten thousand taels of silver. The little she had painstakingly saved as a maid was so little that no one would even pick it up if she threw it on the ground.
She rolled over and got up, put the branch back into the bundle, and knelt down.
"My Lord God, please grant me spirit stones to save Xian'er!" She kowtowed with utmost sincerity.
Everyone knows they need spirit stones!
"Didn't you become an immortal?"
The fairy's face turned bright red, and she looked very cute.
