Mo Hua went home and told his parents that he was about to break through the fourth level of Qi refining and would practice Kung Fu.
Mo Shan and Liu Ruhua were quite happy. At Mo Hua's age, he could become a monk at the fourth level of Qi Refining, and he was considered a leader among his peers in Tongxian City.
As for the martial arts, Mo Shan told Mo Hua not to worry:
"Your mother and I have discussed it a long time ago. If you can't learn the skills of Tongxian Sect, you can only find some experienced casual cultivators to teach them. There is a senior named Han among the demon hunters in Tongxian City, who is from Xiaowu Xing.
The spiritual root is also of medium quality. In a few days, I will treat Senior Han to a drink and ask him to help me with this. Senior Han is a very kind-hearted person, so he should be willing to help. Then we can give some spiritual stones as a reward. It’s just...
…”
Mo Shan paused for a moment and then said: "It's just that Senior Han was also a casual cultivator. He himself often said that although his technique was passed down from his family and was quite perfect, it was not a good inheritance. After practicing, he
, I’m afraid there is no prospect…”
Mo Shan hoped to give Mo Hua the best, but that was all he could give, and his face felt somewhat disappointed.
Instead, Mo Hua comforted him and said: "Dad, I want to be an formation master in the future. As long as the formation master has sufficient spiritual consciousness, there is not much emphasis on the skills, as long as he can practice them safely. This skill has also been passed down from generation to generation by Senior Han.
If it comes down, it means that the practice is stable and there will be no mistakes. This is better than anything else."
Only then did Mo Shan look more relieved. Liu Ruhua also touched Mo Hua's head and said warmly:
"Let's eat. Take a rest early after eating. We will learn the formation with Mr. Zhuang tomorrow."
"Yeah." Mo Hua nodded obediently.
Bai Zisheng said that he wanted to help Mo Hua find some skills. Mo Hua didn't tell his parents because the bigger the clan, the stricter the inheritance within the clan and they would not pass things on at will.
Moreover, he does not want to accept Bai Zisheng's favor because he has no merit and no reward. The key is that he cannot afford to repay this favor now.
Unexpectedly, the next day, Bai Zisheng actually took a few jade slips and handed them to Mo Hua like a thief.
"I took this out secretly when Aunt Xue wasn't paying attention. You can see for yourself if there is anything suitable. If there is anything suitable, choose one and keep it. I will return the rest."
Mo Hua opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say.
Bai Zisheng became proud, "How's it going? Are you very touched?"
Bai Zisheng looks a little arrogant, but he also treats others with enthusiasm.
Mo Hua said: "If you secretly take out the exercises, won't you be punished?"
Bai Zisheng snorted, "I'm a direct descendant of the Bai family. Not to mention a few middle- and low-grade skills, they are innate treasures passed down from our ancestors. If you take them, you will take them. They don't dare to do anything to me."
Mo Hua's eyes were full of disbelief.
Bai Zisheng was unconvinced, "How can I still lie to you?"
"It's just a year or two of confinement, it's nothing."
Bai Zixi's tone was calm, but there was a slight smile in her eyes.
Bai Zisheng's face turned a little red.
Mo Hua thought for a moment, then shook his head and said: "I can't take these skills, and I can't harm you."
Bai Zisheng said displeasedly: "I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of?"
Bai Zixi also said softly: "Although these skills are valuable, they are not too rare for the Bai family. Just practice them and nothing will happen to you, otherwise Aunt Xue will not let my brother take them out."
"That's right!" Bai Zisheng nodded quickly and suddenly said "ah" again, "How did Aunt Xue know that I took out the exercises?"
Bai Zixi glanced at him lightly, "There's nothing you do that Aunt Xue doesn't see. It's just you who thinks others don't know."
Bai Zisheng slumped his shoulders, his ambition somewhat frustrated.
Mo Hua was lying when he said he was not moved. He also wanted to know what kinds of exercises the wealthy families practiced and what their mysteries were.
After thinking about it, Mo Hua no longer refused, silently keeping the kindness of the Bai family brothers and sisters in mind, and then took the jade slip from Bai Zisheng's hand and read it:
"Small Five Elements Technique" is suitable for middle-grade five-element spiritual root cultivation. It is a simplified version of the top-grade "Big Five Elements Technique". A monk can refine spiritual power for up to thirty-three days and can control the five types of five-element spells of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. It is simple.
General use...
"Lingyin Jue" is suitable for middle-grade water spiritual root cultivation, can cultivate spiritual power for twenty-eight weeks, and is suitable for concealment spells...
"Fire Flame Technique" is suitable for the cultivation of medium-grade fire-based spiritual roots. It can refine spiritual power for thirty-five weeks and increase the power of fire-based spells by 10 to 20%...
"Water and Wood Spiritual Gong" is suitable for the cultivation of medium-grade water-type and wood-type spiritual roots. It can refine spiritual power for thirty-six days. Practicing this method can cleanse the meridians, warm the body, and reduce training bottlenecks. This method can nourish the body,
However, it cannot strengthen the body, and it is not suitable to be used as a physical training method for the main attack. Required spiritual materials: Tianshen wood, boundless water, spiritual liquid...
…
Mo Hua looked dazzled and thought everything was very good, but as he looked at it, his brows gradually wrinkled.
"Is there no suitable one?" Bai Zisheng asked when he saw Mo Hua frowning.
Mo Hua asked after careful consideration: "What is Tianshen wood?"
"Tianshenmu is the root of Tianshen. It can nourish the body and is not too expensive."
"How many spiritual stones will it cost?"
"Heaven's ginseng buds are extremely valuable, but heaven's ginseng wood is much cheaper. It only costs a few hundred spiritual stones." Bai Zisheng said uncertainly.
"Then what is the boundless water?"
Bai Zisheng didn't know either, so he scratched his head and looked at Bai Zixi.
Bai Zixi's beautiful eyes turned slightly and said: "The Boundless Water is the seawater of the Boundless Sea. It needs to be refined by the alchemist for forty-nine days to remove the impurities in the seawater. The final product is the Boundless Water. The Boundless Water is not precious, but
It takes a lot of effort, a small bottle of boundless water costs about a thousand spirit stones, and if it is in a remote place, it will be more expensive, and this kind of spiritual object is relatively rare, and you may not be able to buy it even if you occasionally have spirit stones."
Mo Hua took a deep breath.
What kind of skills are these? He can't afford to practice them!
For a technique like "Shui Mu Ling Gong", even if it only requires a stick of Tianshen Wood and a small bottle of boundless water, the required spiritual stones far exceed the expectations of Mo Hua.
What's more, looking at the description of the exercises, you need spiritual objects for cultivation, spiritual objects for breakthrough, and spiritual stones for daily practice. The total amount is an astronomical amount, which is far beyond what Mo Hua can afford.
This is still consumed during the Qi Refining period, not to mention the subsequent Foundation Establishment stage. The further you go in cultivation, the more resources you will need. This is a well-known fact.
Even if Mo Hua really became a first-level formation master and painted formations day and night, he might not be able to afford the cost of such training.
Mo Hua looked at Bai Zisheng, then at Bai Zixi, and couldn't help but ask: "Are all the disciples in your family practicing this kind of technique?"
"Of course not," Bai Zisheng shook his head, "The direct disciples practice more advanced techniques, and the required heavenly materials and earthly treasures are much more valuable than these. Some spiritual objects are even more valuable and have no market. Only the family itself
It is treasured and never shared."
"But this kind of skill cannot be taught to others. Even if you want to teach it to others, others will not be able to practice it without these unique spiritual objects needed for practice."
"The ones I gave you are the best ones among the techniques that can be taught to others as appropriate. Generally, collateral disciples or common disciples may not be qualified to practice unless they have excellent qualifications."
"Does your family provide spiritual objects for practicing the exercises?" Mo Hua asked.
"Other people don't know, but the things Zixi and I use for cultivation are all given by my mother." Bai Zisheng said.
Bai Zixi glanced at Bai Zisheng and said calmly:
"The family will divide the grades of disciples according to their direct disciples and talents. The more direct disciples, the better the talent. The higher the grade within the family, the more training resources they will be given. Direct disciples with excellent talents will basically be given the same amount of training resources as long as they are needed for cultivation.
It’s all about getting what you want…”
"Other disciples, if they want to practice better techniques and exceed the training resources required for a fixed product, they have to find a way on their own. Usually parents or other relatives spend merit points to exchange spiritual items with the clan."
"No matter what the situation is, the children of the aristocratic family only need to practice. They don't have to figure out the spiritual stones and spiritual objects needed for cultivation."
"Yes," Bai Zisheng nodded and said:
"Both our Bai family and other aristocratic families have lasted for at least a thousand years. They have accumulated rich heritage and have easy access to the treasures of heaven, materials and earth. Except for those that are truly extinct, all the treasures of heaven, materials and earth that can be obtained are not considered scarce."
Mo Hua was shocked in his heart. The resources of the aristocratic family are as vast as the vast ocean, and the inheritance is as numerous as the vast ocean, but what casual practitioners can obtain is only a drop in the ocean.
No wonder the Qi refining period is just the beginning for monks, but for casual cultivators at the bottom, it is a lifetime.
