Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 9: Secret
After Tang Jie chose his starting technique, Wei Tianchong finally made his choice.
Shaohai Xuan Yuan Jue.
It also uses Shao Hai as the spiritual eye, but this mental method has no characteristics in other aspects. It is just that after successful practice, the spiritual energy will be endless and the stamina will be continuous, which is more suitable for long-term fighting.
Shao Hai is the number one spiritual eye of Xiyue Sect. In fact, most students will choose this place first. Only some students with special needs and pursuits will find another way.
The Shaohai Xuan Yuan Jue is the best type among all Shaohai's techniques.
To put it bluntly, Wei Tianchong wants the best and the least effort.
As for Shi Meng, he chose Shuiquan Huizhao Jue.
Water springs are good for nourishment but not good for fighting. Those who practice this method often have long lifespans and it is easier to improve their realm. Learning some spells such as rejuvenation is more effective. Shi Meng chose this choice because he has made up his mind to improve his realm and connect with the world. There is no way to fight.
His qualifications are average, so if he chooses this technique, there is at least a chance of promotion. Many geniuses often choose a path that is not suitable for them because they think too highly of themselves, and the result is that they are not as good as ordinary people.
Eighty percent of the "waste" spiritual masters in Qixia Realm are basically like him, who only seek comfort and stability, including Master Lu and others.
In addition, Shuiquan Jue is the real foundation of water control and is suitable for learning some water-attribute spells. In this regard, Shaohai Jue also belongs to water, but its water belongs to refining and not to use. There is a difference between the two. .
With Shuiquan Jue as the basis, it will be much easier for Shi Meng to learn some water spells similar to cleaning the house in the future. It is estimated that he is also preparing to get rid of the endless servant life in the future.
These sutras and formulas are the basis of cultivation. They are only used to open the eyes, collect Qi, and lay the foundation. They do not possess any magic spells themselves. Only after the spiritual eyes are opened, can you learn some simple small spells.
After selecting the sutras, the three of them rushed to line up to grab the meal as usual. However, this time everyone was prepared. Some of the sutras were selected faster. In the end, the three of them did not even enter the top 100, so they could only Eat whole grains again.
Wei Tianchong had no choice but to buy more food, and while eating, he said fiercely: "When I complete the Xuan Yuan Jue, the spiritual energy in my body will move freely, my body will be as light as a swallow, and I will win the first place every time!"
Shi Meng had no choice but to remind him: "I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. I'm afraid we won't have a chance in the future."
"Huh? Why is this?"
Tang Jie smiled and said: "Because others are also practicing. But the biggest problem is that although the Xuan Yuan Jue is endless and has strong durability, it is not as explosive, so..."
Without his words, Wei Tianchong also understood.
Xuan Yuan Jue is not based on speed, so in the days to come, everyone will be practicing. If Wei Tianchong strives for speed, he will definitely not be able to compete with those students who specialize in speed. This means that He is afraid that he will never be able to enter the top 100 again.
This fact made Wei Tianchong stand up, his face turned pale, he beat his head and chest and cried: "If I had known, I would have chosen an immortal method that can increase speed!"
Tang Jie smiled bitterly. The Shaohai Cave Golden Technique he chose and the Shuiquan Huizhao Jue chosen by Shi Meng were not dominated by speed. Therefore, at this moment, countless disciples were already in his mind, running around like flying, and three others like himself. The image of a person left far behind.
Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in Tang Jie's eyes, he slapped the table and shouted, "I understand!"
This shout made many students look askance. Wei Tianchong asked in shock: "What do you understand?"
Tang Jie chuckled and said in a low voice: "Young Master, the rules of Xiyue Academy have profound meanings!"
"What do you mean?"
"Put it into practice!" Tang Jie said sternly: "What you learn must be used regularly in order to be truly proficient in it and exert its power. Just imagine, students have to wait less time in order to eat a delicious meal. Every time you eat, you must sprint bravely, and most of the magical skills you have learned will be used. If you compete with me, isn't it the best time to train, and the effect will be much better than practicing hard by yourself!"
"So that's it!" Shi Meng and Wei Tianchong suddenly realized.
Tang Jie continued: "When I studied the disciple rules, I found that the rules of this academy are quite strange. On the one hand, they encourage competition, and on the other hand, they are strict in all aspects. This is not allowed, and that is not allowed. There are quite a few contradictions. Although the Xiyue Sect emphasizes rules, the rules are unreasonable, which cannot be justified. But if you look at it from the perspective of cultivation, then all the questions can be explained. For example, the cleaning of the house She, how can practitioners like us have the energy to clean every day, so we have no choice but to learn a cleaning technique. This cleaning technique seems simple, but because it has too many targets, it pays most attention to the subtlety of the use of spiritual energy, so it is exercise It's controlled by spiritual energy; look at this, no questions are allowed in class, but during the day, I hold up the sign and do whatever I want, and the instructor doesn't care. What does this mean? Refining the talisman! With this talisman to communicate, we can also talk freely in class. , you can talk to whoever you want. If you have the ability, you can also create a soundproof formation. In short, Xiyue Academy has set up various rules. In addition to teaching us how to behave, it also has a purpose of making us under this pressure. Understand what it means to apply what you have learned!”
"Yes, that's it." Shi Meng said excitedly, waving his fist.
"Then not allowing internal fighting is also a test?" Wei Tianchong asked.
"Of course, it will test our concealment and observation abilities. If you have the ability to detect the pickets before they arrive, you can fight them as much as you want, but of course not with dead people." Tang Jie revealed the secret.
Xiyue Academy attaches great importance to rules, and no rules can be broken, but conversely, as long as you have the ability, you can also use your own abilities to break through, bypass, and even take advantage of these rules.
On the one hand, it adheres to the rules and uses rules and regulations to restrict everyone. On the other hand, it encourages competition and courageous progress. Only by being brave under such a large framework can we not lose our direction and not fall off the cliff with one step. .
This is the purpose of Xiyue Academy, to make everyone truly realize what "the immortal road is like a mountain road, thousands of people are competing to compete".
It wasn't until Tang Jie woke up at this moment that the two of them finally woke up.
"What if we can't do it?" Wei Tianchong asked.
"Then just be honest and abide by the rules." Tang Jie said with a smile: "If you don't have the ability, just be an honest person. This is what Xiyue Academy wants to tell us, but as Master Xin said, many things, they It’s not about saying it openly, but putting it into action, and we need to understand it ourselves.”
"That means I will never be able to eat spiritual food again!" Wei Tianchong said with a sad face. Tang Jie said so much, but what he cared about in the end was eating. The thought that he was not as fast as others made him sad.
"...Young master, you don't have to worry about this. I think I already know what to do." Tang Jie said with a smile.
"What can you do?" Wei Tianchong was very excited.
"Come with me after eating."
After eating, Tang Jie took Wei Tianchong and Shi Meng to Lingmiaofang.
This Lingmiaofang is actually the grocery store of Xiyue College. After all, if students want to live here, they cannot have a shop. Therefore, Xiyue College opened a shop here, which contains all kinds of daily necessities. The sale even includes various resources in the world of immortality such as magic weapons, talismans, elixirs, etc. that cultivators need.
Wei Tianchong did not expect that Tang Jie would bring him here, and asked strangely: "What are you doing here?"
"Of course it's shopping."
"Everything here is not cheap."
"It depends on what it is." Tang Jie said with a smile, as he saw a shop in the distance, but it was a food shop. There were all kinds of food in it, and surprisingly there was also spiritual food.
Tang Jie strode over to take a look, and laughed and said, "It's true, young master, look at the price."
Wei Tianchong took a look and saw that this pound of fine rice cost only twenty copper coins. He was shocked: "So cheap?"
In fact, twenty copper coins for a pound of rice is a bit expensive. A pound of polished rice only costs five to ten copper coins among the people. But in Xiyue Academy, where a bowl of rice costs one spiritual coin, two Ten copper coins per pound of polished rice is simply a free gift!
Tang Jie smiled and said: "That's natural. This Xiyue Academy pays attention to applying what you learn. Naturally, magic is available everywhere in life. If you buy it ready-made, it will be sky-high. But if you buy it yourself Buying rice for cooking is much cheaper, but this is not enough..."
As he spoke, Tang Jie called out: "Shop, do you have any seeds in your shop?"
I saw a middle-aged woman walking out of the shop, smiling at Tang Jie: "That's a good question, brother, but my family has seeds, not only fine seeds, but also spiritual seeds."
"What's the price?"
The woman smiled and replied: "The price of polished rice is the same as the market price, and the spiritual seed depends on the variety. The cheapest one or two only costs one spiritual coin."
"As expected." Tang Jie clapped his hands and laughed.
If buying rice for cooking requires a small amount of exploitation from the other party, then buying the seeds and planting them yourself is completely equivalent to the market price, and even spiritual rice is even cheaper - one or two kinds for one spiritual coin. But you can’t buy it outside at all.
It just takes time to grow this spiritual food, so before harvesting, you still need to buy some uncooked rice and cook it yourself.
Tang Jie already said: "This Xiyue Academy requires us to do everything by ourselves, and experience hardships in the process, and also practice our magic. If you want to cook by yourself, you must be proficient in the art of controlling fire, and grow your own. Earth, that is to practice the art of moving clouds and spreading rain."
"That means we can grow our own food in the future?" Shi Meng also became excited. After all, he also came from a poor background and didn't care about this kind of thing at all.
"That's natural." It was the middle-aged woman who answered the conversation this time, and she cupped her hands in front of the three of them: "Congratulations to the three young brothers for finally understanding the secret of survival in the academy. I wish you all the best." Keep working hard to live up to the cultivation of the academy. In addition, I also asked the three young brothers to keep this matter confidential. Some things are better left to the students to understand on their own."
Tang Jie bowed to the woman: "Thank you, madam, for your advice. The boys have remembered it and haven't asked her for her name yet."
In this Xiyue Academy, there are either students or immortal masters, even if they are just a woman selling rice~IndoMTL.com~Tang Jie does not dare to be careless.
The woman just smiled: "You can just call me Mrs. Shui."
Wei Tianchong was so happy that he laughed: "So that's it. Even if I can't outrun others from now on, I can still grow my own land to eat...good...good...not good!"
Wei Tianchong's expression suddenly changed, and the word "good" was changed to "bad".
"What's wrong, young master?" Tang Jie asked.
"I don't know how to farm." Wei Tianchong said with a grimace.
Tang Jie smiled and said: "I thought it was something. In fact, you don't have to farm to eat food. Rice is like this, and it must be the same for chicken, duck and fish. You should be able to raise it yourself. If there is so much, , and can even be sold to other students. After all, we can’t do everything ourselves, so we need to exchange.”
Wei Tianchong came to his senses: "No wonder there is such a large open space in our school yard. The open space has actually been used for us to support ourselves from the beginning, either for farming, raising animals, or digging ponds. The college has no regulations on this, and it is our own choice how to use it."
"No wonder those senior brothers don't go to Qianweixuan." Shi Meng also said.
Tang Jie just smiled. In fact, he had already confirmed his guess since he came to Lingmiaofang, because the senior brothers who usually can't see him are here... They exchange their gains here, here The city is actually mainly composed of students themselves.
"That's true." The woman covered her mouth and smiled: "Everyone has his own ambitions and strengths. Whatever the students are pursuing and what they are good at, then just do whatever they want, as long as it does not violate these principles. According to the rules of the academy, the academy allows it. I wonder what this young master can do?"
Wei Tianchong was stunned for a moment.
He thought for a while, then his fat face suddenly turned red, and he said with shame: "I...I don't know anything!"
