Ugly Cultivation Notes

Jiao Gu did not refute Zhao He's words, he just said calmly.

"I am indeed very weak, and I cannot help you practice. Cultivation is your own business. The help of outsiders is like a castle in the air. It looks like a castle in the air, but in fact it will fall down when the wind blows."

Zhao He was stunned. What Jiao Gu said seemed to make sense.

In fact, over the years, she had pinned her hopes on the scorched bones she picked up. The main reason was that she had already felt the bottleneck on her cultivation path when she first broke through the Nascent Soul Realm decades ago.

No matter how much spiritual energy she put into her body, that spiritual energy could not increase her cultivation level at all.

Only certain powerful elixirs could slightly improve her cultivation.

But Zhao He did not dare to take more of this kind of elixir.

The more pills you take, the more harmful they will be to your practice. This is common knowledge in the practice world.

Zhao He's eyes gradually became serious when he looked at Jiao Gu.

"You're right, but my qualifications are not good. If I don't borrow external help, I might not even be able to break through the Nascent Soul stage."

"Really? Cultivation focuses on qualifications, and more importantly on character. If you don't even believe that you can make a breakthrough, then your path of cultivation must really come to an end."

Zhao He's heart trembled, and he felt like he was enlightened.

Could it be that her cultivation has become more and more difficult in recent years because of this?

Zhao He no longer had the slightest intention of looking down upon her. She bowed solemnly to the withered bones in front of her and said, "Senior, please teach me!"

"You found spiritual stones for me to help me recover my soul. You were kind to me, and I should teach you about emotions and principles."

At this point, Jiao Gu paused for a moment, "It's just my method, you may not be able to accept it."

"Senior, it doesn't matter, as long as I can go further on the path of cultivation, I can endure any hardship!"

There was a look of determination in Zhao He's eyes. The Corpse Refining Sect had always treated the ordinary disciples in the sect with ease.

She has been practicing alone so far, and has taken many detours and suffered a lot.

Seeing Zhao He express his attitude, Jiao Gu said calmly.

"When it comes to cultivation, the most important thing is your mind, followed by your understanding and skills. If you have poor qualifications and insufficient spiritual stones, it's just that your cultivation speed will be slower."

Zhao He said thoughtfully, "Everyone says that the most important thing in practice is the Dharma and the Dharma of the wealthy couple. The senior's words are refreshing."

Jiao Gu suggested, "Spiritual stones are important, but they are never the most important. Don't neglect the basics."

Zhao He kept these words in mind and then asked, "In the opinion of the seniors, how should I go in the future?"

"I have checked just now. The techniques you practice are very ordinary, and the foundation you laid when building the foundation is not strong. You only built a fifth-grade Taoist platform."

There are grades in the Taoist platform, the first grade is the best and the ninth grade is the worst.

Above the first grade, there is a dust-free golden Taoist platform, and below the ninth grade, there is a gray gradeless Taoist platform.

In the vast world of spiritual energy, it is relatively easy to refine the energy and build the foundation. Zhao He only condensed the fifth-grade Taoist platform when building the foundation, which is already considered poor.

There was a hint of helplessness in Zhao He's eyes, "At that time, I had not yet joined the Corpse Refining Sect. I had no talent or background. I tried my best, but I could only build this fifth-level Taoist platform."

Jiao Gu said softly, "The nine-story platform starts from tired soil, and building the foundation is the first step on the road to cultivation.

If the foundation is not strong, no matter how high your cultivation level is, it will be a castle in the air. When you reach the advanced stage of cultivation, you will naturally be unable to succeed. "

Zhao He sighed, "Senior is right. Although I have Nascent Soul cultivation now, I can't make up for this shortcoming."

"In addition, you were eager to achieve success and swallowed too many pills, which caused too many impurities to be blocked in the meridians. This is also one of the reasons why your cultivation has stagnated."

Zhao He said dejectedly, "My qualifications are too poor. If it weren't for the help of the elixir, I might still be in the golden elixir realm..." There is abundant spiritual energy in the Tianyuan world, and it is very easy to cultivate to the golden elixir realm. Most monks with spiritual roots can break through to this realm.

Zhao He's cultivation in the early stage of Yuanying would not be easy in the Tianyuan world. If she only had the cultivation in the late stage of Jindan, it would be even harder to gain a foothold in the Tianyuan world.

Jiao Gu said unceremoniously, "If your foundation is not strong, your strength will be slightly lower than that of monks of the same level. Although pills can improve your cultivation, there are far more ways to improve your strength than this.

When you take a large amount of pills, you get a short-term improvement at the expense of your potential. "

After hearing what Jiao Gu said, Zhao He couldn't help but blush.

"Senior, I have realized this mistake. This is why I have never taken any pills since I broke through to the Nascent Soul Realm."

Jiao Gu's tone softened slightly, "You will find your way back when you have lost your way. The wisdom of the past is the same. You are only over 300 years old, so you are still very young. There is a chance to start all over again."

"Start all over again?"

Zhao He's heart skipped a beat, "Senior, do you mean to let me relax my skills and resume cultivation?"

Jiao Gu explained, "The potential in your body has been exhausted long ago. If you reluctantly take the elixir, you will only be able to practice to the late Nascent Soul stage at most.

If you want to go further, it's best to start practicing again and go back to the wrong path. "

"But re-cultivation of San Gong means that everything has to start again. All my efforts in the past have been in vain..."

Zhao He hesitated, "And once I lose my power, I won't have any ability to protect myself for a long time in the future."

If during this period, one encounters an accident or is approached by an enemy, one's life may not be guaranteed.

And the more important reason, Zhao He did not say.

In order to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, she had tried all kinds of methods. If she had to do it all over again, she really had no confidence that she would be able to advance to the Nascent Soul stage again.

Hearing the hesitation in Zhao He's words, Jiao Gu said no more.

When it comes to spiritual practice, all others can give him is guidance and instruction. The specific path must be taken by Zhao He himself.

If she didn't figure it out, no matter how much Jiao Gu said, it would be useless.

Seeing Jiao Gu's silence, Zhao He felt uneasy in his heart.

She knew what Jiao Gu said was right. If you don't break, you can't build. If you want to take a step forward, it's the best way to spread your energy and rebuild and walk the past path again.

However, she couldn't make up her mind when she thought of having to suffer all the hardships she had suffered in the past.

Zhao He said apologetically, "Senior, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. I really don't have the courage to stop practicing again..."

Jiao Gu was silent for a long time, and then spoke.

"I respect your choice. If you don't stop practicing again, there are many ways to improve your strength.

Throughout the ages, there have been many physical practitioners who have used their strength to realize the Tao, but this path is not as easy as re-cultivation. "

"Body training?"

Zhao He's eyes were slightly stunned. The speed of physical cultivation was much slower than that of legal cultivation.

Moreover, physical training requires constant fighting and finding opportunities for breakthrough between life and death. Every small step forward is very difficult.

Abandoning the path of legal cultivation and turning to physical training is not what Zhao He wants. (End of chapter)
