Chapter 5 Outer Court Disciples

The rising sun is rising.

The outer courtyard has already become busy, with smoke rising from the cooking stove, full of vitality.

Xu Xian got up before dawn and followed other disciples from the outer courtyard to do morning classes, practicing the "Five Qi Return to the Truth".

He has been in the outer courtyard for three days. Because of the bone-generating pill, Xu Xian's broken leg has been cured. The Immortal Sect elixir is indeed magical. The so-called broken bones are healed in a hundred days. A elixir can heal in less than one day. It is indeed beyond Xu Xian's perception, which also makes him more curious and longing for the immortal cultivators in this world.

The Five Qi Return to the True Art can be obtained by disciples from the outer academy and is a basic exercise.

Basic exercises can make people feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Only by first realizing the spiritual body can we refine qi and strengthen the body, transform our spirits and concentrate our minds, and step into the path of cultivation.

Mortals eat grains, and immortals absorb energy.

That's the reason.

In addition to "The Five Qi Return to the Truth", disciples from the outer academy can also practice various martial arts, palm techniques, boxing techniques, sword techniques, and sword techniques, which are all contributed by disciples from the outer academy in the past dynasties. These martial arts have many advanced martial arts, and when placed outside, they are all unique secrets that martial artists cannot find.

Xu Xian didn't pay attention.

He only practiced the "Five Qi Return to the Truth" because only this is the orthodox method of cultivating immortals.

Half an hour later, when the sky was dawn, a gong sounded in the distance, and many disciples from the outer courtyard stood up from meditation and left.

As a disciple of the outer academy, in addition to normal practice, there are many chores.

Of course, there are many types of errands, including leisure and labor.

The words Yang Xiu said before leaving worked. With the instructions of the Seventh Master Uncle, Xue Gui, the general officer in charge of assigning disciples from the outer courtyard, arranged an errand for Xu Xian that others envied.

Go to the medicine field to help.

There are 3,000 disciples in the outer courtyard, and only 100 people can help in the medicine field. I don’t know how many people envy this job.

Because of leisure.

A leisurely errand means more time spent on practice. If you waste most of your time on errands, you will be exhausted even if you come back. How can you have time and energy to practice?

Three days is enough for Xu Xian to understand the situation in the outer hospital.

Following the winding stone road, Xu Xian headed towards the medicine field on the mountainside. Along the way, all the disciples of the outer courtyard were in a hurry. At this moment, he was wearing the gray disciple uniform distributed by the outer courtyard, which looked no different from other disciples of the outer courtyard.

The medicinal fields in the outer courtyard are very large, and it is said that there are thousands of acres of fertile land. Most of them are supplied with five sects of alchemy, and are responsible for the elders within the five sects. However, the elders do not come often. The one who cares for the medicinal fields on weekdays is the chief manager of the medicinal fields.

When he arrived at the place, Xu Xian received the waist card first and walked towards the hill where he was responsible for taking care of him.

There are about ten basketball courts in this place, distributed on a small hill like terraces.

First, follow the rules and inspect the fields back and forth, and record the number and categories of herbs. The first day Xu Xian was a little busy, but fortunately, he had a strong learning ability, and his memory of never forgetting, so he had already remembered most of the spiritual herbs in the field. By this third day, he was already familiar with it.

What he had to do was to take care of the ten acres of medicinal fields, water them regularly every day, fertilize them regularly, remove weeds, and beware of other birds, birds, spirits and beasts in the mountains.

After it was done, it was already two hours later. After getting free, Xu Xian sat on a stone, took out a book in his arms and started reading.

This book was borrowed from the Foreign Academy Pavilion.

There are some books in the book pavilion that record ore types and spiritual herbs, which are compiled by some seniors of the Five Elements Sect. Xu Xian knew very well that he had to work in one line and worked in the medicine field. If he wanted to do a good job and do a steady job, he had to put in more effort in this regard.

"The six-ring spiritual herb has its leaves like needles, and there are shallow six-ring patterns on the leaves. They like the Yin and dislike the Yang, and their roots are fragile..."

"Pure Yang grass is like red flowers, with thorny stems, and likes sun and dislikes yin..."

"Thousand Grass Grass, its shape is fat and contains grain energy..."

"Feng Ling Fruit..."

Xu Xian read it seriously and finished reading a book without realizing it.

After closing the book, closing his eyes and thinking, Xu Xian smiled.

"There are so many benefits to remember this after reading it. It is normal to understand the hundreds of spiritual herbs in this book, or even memorize their habits, it will take at least several days, and it may not be able to remember them all..."

After thinking about it, he murmured to himself: "It's a pity that there are only types of spiritual herbs, but no introduction to medicinal properties."

There are still too few books in the book pavilion, and the content is very shallow. If you want to study further, you can only find another way.

This is the peak of the sun in the mountains. Fortunately, there is a big tree on it. Sitting under the shade of the trees, watching the surrounding medicinal fields, occasionally the mountain wind blows, it is also pleasant.

Xu Xian knew that Yang Xiu had a big role in getting such a miserable situation. He should have taken the initiative to return the medicine bottle and gave the other party a favor. If it weren't for Yang Xiu's last advice, Xu Xian could be 100% sure, and then the general official Xue Gui would not have arranged for him to come to the medicine field.

It seems that even in this other world, relationships are an extremely important part.

After taking out the "Five Qi Return to the Truth" he received, Xu Xian flipped through it and only took dozens of pages. He had already memorized it in his heart. This is actually just the first article of the Five Qi Return to the Truth. If you understand and learn it thoroughly, you can practice to the second level of Qi refining.

The first step in cultivation is to see if you can enter the realm of Qi refining. Xu Xian has learned in the past three days that the path to cultivation of immortals begins with Qi refining. Qi refining is divided into ten levels, and above Qi refining is the realm of spiritual transformation, and also divided into ten levels of spiritual transformation. As for what is above the realm of spiritual transformation, Xu Xian doesn't know, and others don't tell him.

But even a mere Qi Refining Realm is also a hurdle that most disciples in the outer courtyard will never be able to overcome in their entire lives.

To put it bluntly, practicing is difficult to reach the sky.

It is completely insufficient to have insight alone, but also depends on talent. The so-called talent is physical fitness. In the words of this world, it is something called spiritual roots.

Whether there is a spiritual root, whether the spiritual root is good or bad, determines the future achievements of the practitioner.

New disciples from the outer courtyard will test the spiritual roots once, and Xu Xian is no exception. His test result is the low-grade Golden Fire Spirit Root.

Spiritual roots are divided into inferior roots, low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade and best-grade according to level.

According to the attributes of the five elements, there are more spiritual roots, but we have always known that pure attribute spiritual roots are the easiest to practice. Correspondingly, the spiritual roots with miscellaneous attributes are very ordinary.

Xu Xian is a low-grade gold and fire spirit root. If you look at it from a practitioner, it is very ordinary and almost impossible to achieve anything. Perhaps it is because of this reason that the seventh uncle of Mu Zong did not accept disciples.

This was later analyzed by Xu Xian himself.

The seventh uncle looked at him at one glance, and his eyes were filled with a faint light. With a cultivator of that level, he should be able to see through his spiritual root qualifications at one glance.

Very bad.

So, the other party arranged himself to the outer courtyard.

Of course, there is no chance to go to the outer hospital. Every year, there will be a big test for the outer hospital. Excellent people have the opportunity to join the five sects. This is an opportunity to change their destiny, otherwise they can only stay in the outer hospital.

Xu Xian had already memorized the first chapter of "The Story of Returning to the Truth of Five Qis" the first day, and even with his learning ability, he had already understood it thoroughly.

But this does not mean that his cultivation can also improve by leaps and bounds.

Knowing and truly achieving are different things.

From Xu Xian’s perspective, this Qi Refining Period is actually a process of continuously absorbing and accumulating spiritual energy. Suppose that the first layer of Qi refining is represented by numbers, and the amount of spiritual energy that needs to be absorbed should be 1,000 units. If it is a medium-grade or high-grade spiritual root, and its attributes are pure, the amount of spiritual energy that can be absorbed every day is between 1 and 3 units. One to three years, the first layer of Qi training can be reached.

However, if it is a low-quality or inferior spiritual root with a messy attribute, the unit amount of spiritual energy absorbed in a day may be only a few minutes, or even it is finally absorbed, but because the spiritual roots are impure, it will be lost. It is said that some unlucky guys will lose as much as they absorb, and they will have no effect after working for a long time.

This kind of person is naturally not suitable for cultivation.

Although Xu Xian is not that bad, he is just a little better.

To put it bluntly, the technique of martial arts is just a method to absorb spiritual energy.

Of course, there are also methods that can assist in cultivation, such as elixirs. Qi Gathering Pill is the most suitable at this stage. If Xu Xian had a Qi Gathering Pill every day, the speed of incorporating spiritual energy would be doubled. However, Qi Gathering Pill alone is not enough, and spiritual energy needs to be kept in the body, which also has corresponding elixirs.

Heqi Pill!

Eat a Qi Gathering Pill every morning and a Qi He Qi Pill in the afternoon. In this way, the cultivation speed will be truly doubled, which is equivalent to a medium-grade spiritual root.

However, neither the Qi Gathering Pill nor the Heqi Pill are so easy to get, let alone one for you to eat every day.

No matter how big the family business is, it cannot withstand this.

In addition to elixirs, there are also spirit stones.

Spirit stone is a crystal containing spiritual energy. If you hold the spirit stone in your hand, the cultivation speed will increase exponentially. However, there are some hidden dangers to using spirit stones. The spiritual energy in the spirit stone is too complicated, and it is okay to assist in cultivation occasionally, but if it takes a long time, you need to cooperate with some special elixirs to remove impurities. In addition, spirit stones are also divided into grades and attributes, and they cannot be used just by just taking one.

In short, there are many ways to practice, and Xu Xian knows only a very small part of it now.

He came to the outer courtyard. Apart from the first day of exploration and adaptation, he actually started practicing from the next day. Even though he had learning ability far beyond ordinary people, he could start to absorb spiritual energy as soon as possible, but in two days, the spiritual energy he absorbed was just a unit.

In addition, the spiritual energy lost due to impure spiritual roots is actually at most zero point five units.

This is Xu Xian's estimate, not necessarily accurate, but it is probably the same.

Obviously, the distance between thousands of people is too different. According to this speed and method, without making any changes, it will take at least twelve years to cultivate to the first level of Qi training.

It's comparable to elementary school to college entrance examination.

No wonder, many of them in the outer courtyard are middle-aged disciples, and Xu Xian even saw the gray-haired old man.

I heard that if I have not practiced to a certain level in the outer courtyard at a certain age, I will be persuaded to return to my hometown directly. Moreover, when I leave, the memory of the Five Elements Sect will be wiped out by magic. In this way, even if I go out, the location of the sect will not be exposed.
