Chapter 69 Fairy Tales
A glimmer of light flashed in the eyes of Shopkeeper Xiao, and he smiled and sighed: "It seems that Master Su is very persistent in this matter?"
Su Tong stared at him, "A man lives for a lifetime and has a autumn, how can it be enough for just a few dozen or hundreds of years? As the saying goes, the black birds on the head of the stream are joyful, and the wind and rain cannot stop. Who doesn't want to have that kind of power?"
"When you paint the black birds on the top of the stream, you can't stop calling the wind and rain?"
Manager Xiao whispered and looked at Su Tong meaningfully, "Master Su is so literary, but there is no such thing as an immortal in this world. Don't be misled by legends."
"Is it misleading?" Su Tong said meaningfully: "If it is really misleading, what does the Guibao number need so many mitrals for? It can't be just fun, right?"
Manager Xiao also looked at Su Tong for a long time, and suddenly laughed and said, "It seems that Master Su is also a person with a lot of heart. I'm afraid you are deliberately selling the mitral to us, right?"
"God did it intentionally. There is only one reason why I sold silver, that is, I lack money."
Su Tong complained wildly in his heart, but on the surface he sat upright and sneered:
"Shopkeeper Xiao, the wise man doesn't say secret words. Now my martial arts has reached the end of the world. If you want to go further, you need to take that step. I have been looking for this step for a long time. If you have the chance, I will not miss it. I hope that Shopkeeper Xiao will accomplish it.
Besides, I also believe that Jubaozhai can achieve business throughout the continent. If there is no news or path in this regard, I will not believe it. Su is sincere in asking you for advice this time. If Manager Xiao doesn’t want to explain, don’t deceive me.”
Su Tong said it very clearly. If you don’t want to say it, just say it clearly, but don’t lie to me.
Manager Xiao was silent for a moment, and the polite smile on his face gradually disappeared, and then he said, "Since Master Su has said this, then Xiao is going to be the one who is perfunctory.
Then Xiao will tell you, the saying of immortals is indeed illusory, and no one knows whether there are immortals in the world."
When Su Tong heard this, his heart was cold. Are all legends fake?
But then I heard Manager Xiao say: "The legends passed down in the world are actually just left by those pioneers who are pursuing the path of becoming immortals. We generally call this process cultivation. Throughout history, countless sages have devoted countless hard work and even life on this path. After countless years of exploration, this is what we are today."
Speaking of this, Manager Xiao showed emotion in the coming year, "Actually, over the years, Xiao has seen too many people who want to walk on this path, so most of them either fell on the road or died in obscurity. Xiao asked you the last time, would you continue to listen?"
Su Tong smiled faintly: "Even if he dies nine times, he still has no regrets."
Manager Xiao looked at him deeply: "Okay, I hope you don't forget what you said today in the future."
After pondering for a while, Shopkeeper Xiao said: "In general, cultivation is different from practicing martial arts. Practicing martial arts emphasizes the understanding of one's own body and the development of the body's potential to achieve the goal of improvement, while cultivators believe that human power is sometimes poor, how can it be comparable to the great power of heaven and earth? Therefore, cultivators emphasize understanding of heaven and earth, and using the power of heaven and earth to transform themselves to achieve the purpose of immortality.
Of course, this is just the ideal of the sages. So far, Mr. Xiao has never seen such a person.
After countless ancestors over the years of sorting, the road to immortal cultivation was divided into several realms. The first is the Qi-induced realm. Only those who entered this realm are qualified to practice, and then the Foundation Building Realm. This realm is actually laying the foundation for the monks. Later, it is the realm of forming the alchemy. Only when the monks reach this realm can they play out their own realm. After forming the alchemy, they will be the Nascent Soul. After reaching this realm, they will call the wind and rain, and their life span can reach three thousand years."
"Three thousand years?" Su Tong asked in confusion: "Didn't it mean that the sun and the moon shine together with the immortality of heaven and earth?"
"What a big tone, with the same brightness as the sun and the moon and the immortality of heaven and earth, even a real immortal dare not say such big words." Manager Xiao was amused by Su Tong's words and wanted to ridicule a few words, but he thought that this guy was just a rookie and no longer had the interest to curse.
Then he waved his hand in vain: "Forget it, it's useless to tell you. You will naturally understand these things in the future."
Seeing that Manager Xiao was not interested in speaking, Su Tong felt a little unhappy and asked quickly: "Boss Xiao, you haven't told me yet how to embark on the path of cultivation."
"There are only a few ways to enter the path of cultivation. You either enter the sect, or become a casual cultivator, or you join a certain cultivation family to do things for them to obtain resources."
Su Tong hesitated and asked, "What are the resources you mean?"
"Pills, exercises, magic weapons, etc."
Manager Xiao explained, and saw Su Tong showing a ignorant look, patiently explained: "Cultivation is not like practicing martial arts. People in the world are all rich in literature and wealthy in martial arts. But who knows that cultivation is really a bottomless pit. Not to mention cultivation skills, just say that spiritual stones, elixirs, magic weapons, armor needed by cultivators, and even all kinds of things needed on weekdays are very different from those of mortals. These are all bottomless pits. If there is no sufficient foundation, cultivation is a joke. And sometimes even with resources, it may not be guaranteed that you can succeed in cultivation. This is the most desperate thing."
"hiss……"
Su Tong sucked the teeth. After hearing what Shopkeeper Xiao said, it was much more difficult to cultivate the truth than I thought. No wonder when I read the Immortal Cultivation Text, those people always kept talking about the wealthy couple. This is not unreasonable.
Moreover, Su Tong also heard the term spirit stone spit out from Manager Xiao's mouth. He was familiar with this term. Almost all online articles call spirit stones a must-have item for cultivating immortals.
He then asked, "Shopkeeper Xiao, forgive me for being ignorant, what is the use of this spirit stone?"
"Spirit stone." Anyway, I have already said enough today, so Manager Xiao didn't mind saying more, "Spirit stone is something that must be used on the road to cultivation, and its function is just like the effect of money on mortals.
The reason why cultivators are different from mortals is that they want to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and absorb the energy into their bodies and nature. In this process, whether it is practice, building formations or refining magic weapons and refining elixirs, they need to use spirit stones. Without spirit stones, it is difficult to cultivate true to heaven. Do you understand what I said next?"
Su Tong nodded. He was considered to be a waste of time. Cultivation is like rushing to reach the destination. If you want to reach your destination, you must speed up. People without spirit stones can only walk on two legs. If you are worried about sufficient spirit stones and supplies, it is different. People can get on the bus, so the speed is naturally much faster than walking.
