I can't help it, I have no choice but to become a god all the way

Chapter 40 Martial arts training is a bottomless pit

If it were a month ago, Lin Ansheng must have been full of resistance. Xia Wanzhu compared the Zongmen Grand Competition to a war. One can imagine the tragic degree.

But now his thoughts have changed a little.

Firstly, he openly took the lead to sabotage Xuanzong's plan again and again, which made Xuanzong completely hate him. Then, Lin Hao's appearance and being canceled by him at one point may cause him to have ties with the Lin family again.

He needs the attention and protection of the sect more than before, and it is urgent to improve his own martial arts realm. Therefore, it is necessary to have a higher status in the sect.

In addition, the huge cost of practicing alchemy is unsustainable only by the share of small pots, and it is imminent to open up a new path. Zong Chu's land is too small to expand, and he needs a wider area. world.

Lin Ansheng didn't express his opinion immediately, but asked: "Sister Zhu, how many inner disciples and deacons of my miscellaneous sect participated in the last sect competition, how many died, and how many were seriously injured?"

Seeing his cautious look, Xia Wanzhu was angry and funny. Today, Lin Ansheng is synonymous with "integrity and courage" in Zazong. Elder door, who doesn't appreciate him a little bit.

But what they don't know is that this guy is actually a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

With Xia Wanzhu's wisdom, after thinking about it last night, she finally understood Lin Ansheng. The latter has brains, courage, and responsibility. What is lacking is the competitive heart that a martial arts practitioner must have. The root cause is the fear of death.

Regarding what Lin Ansheng said, she wanted to live a peaceful life in Ansheng. She didn't believe a word before, but now she believed it.

It's just that, as a martial artist in the world of practice, and in such a troubled world, this kind of thinking is destined to be just wishful thinking
"Just remember that there were more than a hundred people participating, and about [-]% of them didn't make it out alive."

She gave a vague answer, but she didn't say that the last Zongmen Grand Competition was the one with the least number of deaths since the Zongzong was founded.

After hearing this, Lin Ansheng thought to himself: [-]%, this ratio is not low.

"In the past six months after entering the inner sect, the resources provided by the sect are equivalent to those of the inner sect's disciples?"

"Except that there is no one-on-one teaching from the master, there are some differences in the monthly payment, but everything else is the same."

"That"

"Is it over?"

Seeing Xia Wanzhu frown impatiently, Lin Ansheng twitched the corners of his mouth: "There is one last thing, I want to come to the Zong's kitchen to help every day, this"

"no problem."

After getting an affirmative answer, Lin Ansheng had a firm mind, and he was silent for a moment, gritted his teeth, as if making a decision like a turning point in his life, nodded and said: "OK."

The inner door and the outer door are separated by a mountain, and the atmosphere is completely different.

The outer door is like a college, and the inner door is like an enterprise.

In the daily life of the outer sect, more than a dozen deacons take turns to teach, and the disciples of the outer sect will ask the deacons to solve their problems in cultivation.

As for the inner door, the master leads the door to practice in individuals, and the elders themselves also have to practice, and it takes a month to retreat once.

When inner disciples encounter problems in cultivation, they first think about it by themselves, and then once or twice a month, all the inner disciples gather together to discuss with each other. If they can't solve the problem even through the discussion, they will ask the elders for guidance in private .

This is not because the elders are neglecting the disciples, but because they want to go further on the road of martial arts, they can't lead the way hand in hand, and let the disciples go on their own. As a master, it is more about guiding and inspiring.

In addition to daily practice, inner disciples also need to perform Zongmen tasks from time to time. Correspondingly, the monthly payment from Zongmen is also very generous.

The amount of the monthly payment is linked to the level of the realm, which is the same as that of the outer sect, but the corresponding amount is quite different.

Taking Xu Le as an example, he is currently at the eighth level of body training, and the monthly contribution of the outer sect is three first-grade spirit stones, while the monthly contribution of the inner sect is a full 20 yuan, which is nearly seven times.

It is more than enough to ensure daily practice, but many "luxury items" are still far behind, such as pills, soldiers, high-grade combat skills, and even exercises.

And these "luxury goods" are exactly what make Wu Xiu most greedy.

Routine practice takes half a year to break through a realm, and taking a pill can save a few months of time, who wouldn't want to?

Having a suitable soldier can increase the upper limit of one's own strength by [-] to [-] percent, or even more in actual combat. Who wouldn't want to?
Not to mention high-grade combat skills and exercises.

Therefore, regardless of the generous monthly payment of the inner disciples, they are actually more eager to get more resources than the outer disciples. In the inner sect, such opportunities are much more than in the outer sect, and the competition is more intense.
On the third day after the general election of the Zongmen, the 47 newly promoted inner sect disciples packed their bags and moved into the inner sect from the outer sect.

Three days later, the list of 20 people who temporarily entered the inner sect was released, and Lin Ansheng's name was impressively listed. Besides him, there was also a handyman disciple, Li Yun.

Objectively speaking, Li Yun's strength is not strong, but this guy dared to risk his life, and he was one of the only two five-level body training finalists in the inner sect general election.

Coupled with Xia Wanzhu's recommendation, it is not surprising that he was selected into the list of 20 people.

After a night of preparation, the next day, 20 people went down to the inner gate led by a deacon.

As Shi Yurou and Qin Qianqian said at the beginning, the disciples of the inner sect live in other courtyards, four of them share one, and there is no need to pay extra for spirit stones.

Lin Ansheng and others did not have this kind of treatment, and were assigned a room for each person.

Lin Ansheng didn't move in. As soon as the deacon walked away, he stepped back, walked two miles, and knocked on the door of a separate courtyard.

Shi Yurou, Qin Qianqian, and Xu Le live in this other courtyard, and specially reserved a piece of residence closest to the backyard for him.

"All the things in your room in the outer courtyard have been moved in, and the overpaid January rent has also been refunded."

Qin Feng was seriously injured, Qin's family came to visit, and it happened that Qin Qianqian arrested the young man, which saved Lin Ansheng the effort of moving. Facing the 20 yuan first-grade spirit stone handed over by Qin Qianqian, Lin Ansheng waved his hand and said: " I'm not an inner disciple, this other courtyard won't let me live in vain, how much is the monthly rent?"

Hearing that he took the initiative to mention it, Qin Qianqian also knew that she couldn't hide it, and said truthfully: "30 yuan for a first-grade spirit stone."

Lin Ansheng nodded, and was about to take out the storage bag from his arms when Xu Le stretched out his hand to stop him: "I still owe you ten first-grade spirit stones, plus the 20 yuan refunded from the outer courtyard, it's exactly one month's rent, next month's rent You pay."

Lin Ansheng looked at him and said with a smile: "Fatty, you are rich, and it is different when you enter the inner sect."

Xu Le's face trembled: "The monthly payment I just received the day before yesterday lost half in one fell swoop, leaving ten first-grade spirit stones, which is not enough at all. I have to find a way to earn more spirit stones."

At the end, he gritted his teeth, and there was more ruthlessness in his eyes.

Lin Ansheng said: "You have eight levels of body training, ten first-grade spirit stones a month, it should be about the same."

Xu Le shook his head again and again, sighing: "If it was at the outer door, it would be enough, but this is the inner door. When I get here, I feel like a frog in a well before."

Lin Ansheng blinked: "Tell me specifically."

"The teacher made a training plan for me. Before the Zongmen Grand Competition entered the Meridian Opening Realm, I had to completely stabilize the realm. It is best to open up two meridians. Now it is less than half a year before the Zongmen Grand Competition, and I have broken through two realms in half a year. It is completely impossible in my opinion, but I can’t say no in front of the teacher.”

Xu Le said with bitterness on his face: "Later, it was Senior Brother Chen who gave me some advice. If it is a routine practice, let alone me, with the talents of most inner disciples, it would be difficult for me to practice at my level. To achieve this, the only way is to smash resources, the first to bear the brunt is the Blood Qi Pill, prepare at least three pills in half a year, the medicinal properties are at least first-class, the higher the better."

"And when it's time to rush to the peak of the Ninth Layer of Body Refining, you must prepare a Breaking Pulse Pill, which has first-class medicinal properties and can increase the chance by [-]%. Otherwise, if you fail to reach the realm once, you will have to delay for a month or two."

"This is only based on the fact that the exercises I originally practiced were of the top-grade mortal level. If I have higher requirements for strength, I have to go to the outer gate library to find a suitable low-grade yellow-level exercise. According to the standard of practice, you need to prepare one more Blood Qi Pill, and if you consume spirit stones for daily practice, there will be at least five more first-grade spirit stones in a month."

Speaking of this, Xu Le couldn't help sighing: "Just these things already make my eyes stare, not to mention that if I participate in the Zongmen Grand Competition, I will definitely have to get a warrior and learn a set of yellow-level warriors." Skills, get a talisman next to me. I understand now that martial arts cultivation is simply a bottomless pit."

The last sentence resonated with Qin Qianqian, and she also sighed, and continued: "My teacher also made a plan for me, and I figured it out. I want to break through to the middle grade of Kaimai before the Zongmen Grand Competition, plus Equipped with some other things, at least 800 yuan for a first-grade spirit stone, and the elder’s monthly payment is only [-] yuan for a first-grade spirit stone, which is not enough for half a year."

Xu Le complained endlessly, Lin Ansheng could understand, Qin Qianqian also complained, and in Lin Ansheng's eyes, he became a fool.

"Senior Sister Qin, a few hundred yuan of first-grade spirit stones is not a burden to you, isn't it? At the auction back then, you bought a blood energy pill with first-class medicinal properties, but you didn't even blink your eyelids."

Looking at Lin Ansheng's playful eyes, Qin Qianqian rolled her eyes: "The family subsidizes me with 30 yuan of first-grade spirit stones every month. I can't spend it at the outer door, but when I go to the inner door, do you think it's enough?"

Lin Ansheng asked suspiciously: "30 yuan first-grade spirit stone, so you used up two months of savings when you took the first-class blood energy pill?"

Qin Qianqian pursed her lips: "It's not just two months, more than sixty yuan of first-grade spirit stones, let me save it for half a year, you don't think I have been in the outer sect for four years, and I take blood qi pills for daily practice, right?"

Lin Ansheng stared at her for a while, then slowly said: "Then when you took that blood energy pill, you added ten yuan to the price of the first-grade spirit stone every time. I didn't see you feeling a little bit distressed."

Qin Qianqian was so choked that her pretty face turned red. If it was someone else, she would really spit it out.

The children of the family are the best face, especially she is a woman, no matter how heartbroken she is, even if she is bleeding from the heart, she can't show half of it on her face.

This guy clearly did it on purpose.

Lin Ansheng really didn't do it on purpose. Looking at Qin Qianqian's appearance, he naturally guessed a bit, and shook his head secretly in his heart. It seems that he overestimated the financial resources of his family's disciples. Thinking about it is right, which big family doesn't have hundreds of people? There are thousands of people, and there are dozens if not a hundred children in the younger generation. No matter how big the family business is divided among each person, it is always limited.

Moreover, just because there are so many members in the big family, rules are more important. Whoever gets as much as they want must follow the rules. Breaking rules is the most taboo thing.

This also led to the internal complexity of the big family, the clansmen fought openly and secretly, and the blood relationship was far less than that of ordinary people's families.

At this time, Shi Yurou spoke, but she didn't complain, and there was a sense of tenacity in her tone.

"To practice in the inner sect, the monthly payment alone is definitely not enough. The family subsidy is just a drop in the bucket. If you want to get more resources, you have to fight for it yourself. Fortunately, there are many opportunities."

After hearing this, Qin Qianqian and Xu Le nodded in agreement, the bitterness on their faces faded, and their eyes became persistent.

Lin Ansheng became interested: "What opportunities are there?"

Shi Yuju said: "The sect will send out missions every month. Except for some elders who point out a certain elder to lead the team, the elders will definitely bring their own disciples first. Most of them are voluntary. After completing the mission, they will get a reward afterwards. .”

"Also, there will be a martial arts performance every month. If you get a good ranking, you can also get extra rewards."

"In addition, you can apply to go to the mine to help supervise the work. Three to five mortal spirit stones a day. If you can refine medicine, refine soldiers, or carve talismans, you can also apply for help. I heard that the highest one day can be two A first-grade spirit stone."

Speaking of this, he took a look at Lin Ansheng.

Lin Ansheng understood the meaning, he was practicing medicine refining, and he could go to the medicine refining hall to help.

It's just that there are only two first-grade spirit stones a day, which is still the highest, which makes him completely uninterested.

The amount of spirit stones he needs is huge, in a sense, it exceeds the understanding of Shi Yurou and the other three.

Not only is it very expensive to practice medicine refining, but also martial arts training. As far as he knows, the first floor of the inner sect's library is open to all inner sect disciples. The systematic cultivation method in his mind has already been promoted to the top grade of Huang level.

The cultivation standard of the top-rank Huang class is based on Lin Ansheng's current middle-grade open vein, which is required for regular practice, no less than a hundred first-grade spirit stones a month.

This is still half of his time for practicing alchemy.

Seeing that Lin Ansheng didn't move at all, Shi Yurou remembered that a week ago, Lin Ansheng asked her and Qin Qianqian to help exchange another batch of medicinal materials. It's not difficult to imagine that the batch exchanged earlier may be running out.

The previous batch, equivalent to five or six hundred first-grade spirit stones, only lasted for more than half a month. According to such consumption, even the elders of the sect might not be able to afford it.

Shi Yurou didn't think that Lin Ansheng would last forever, but one thing is for sure, the consumption of practicing alchemy is much more than that of martial arts.

She didn't know that Lin Ansheng had a stable income from Xiaoguocai, so she was really worried about Lin Ansheng.

When exchanging the second batch of medicinal materials, Lin Ansheng made it clear that this was his last property, that is to say, all the property looted from the three cooks had been exhausted.

What should we do next?
