Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 265 0264: Theory of Root Bone

When Cheng Zongyang saw that Qin Sanniang started talking about something he wanted to hear more, he put the matter of the house out of his mind and immediately listened carefully.

He remembered what Tan Sanniang said by heart. He had to tell Ding Xing about it later and let him remember it, so as not to miss anything.

Seeing Cheng Zongyang's concentration like a student, Tan Sanniang found it quite interesting and continued to speak without getting tired of it:
"Let me first tell you about mortal bones and spiritual bones. The biggest difference between the two is the speed of understanding martial arts.

As for martial arts, as long as you study hard, you will eventually get started. But the time it takes to progress is different.

Some people train hard in the hottest days of summer and the coldest days of winter, but they are only able to get started and find it difficult to break through even one level.

Some people only need one or two months, or even ten days or half a month to reach the master level. This is the difference between ordinary bones and spiritual bones. "

Cheng Zongyang nodded. This was true. Many people around him were like this. Just like Li Lu, who had been training for several years, although he had insufficient Qi and blood, his talent was really not good enough.

Li Lu is only at the seventh level now. He has taken a lot of medicines given by him, but it is still difficult for him to enter the sixth level. It is estimated that it will take a long time. Even if he gets better in the future, he should only stop at the middle third level.

His cousin Zhou Zhendong had already entered the sixth rank when he left the county, which was enough to show that his qualifications were also good.

But under his arrangement, I went to Liyuan to report. The rest will be discussed after he comes back.

"No matter if a mortal has a fortuitous encounter or not, if they want to rely on their own hard work and practice, they will still be limited and their achievements will be limited. Throughout their lives, they cannot even reach the threshold of the Xiantian realm, which is the threshold of martial arts. Some people can't even reach the entry level or the middle third level. A mortal is destined to be an ordinary person without talent in martial arts."

"Spiritual bones, even without any adventures, normal practice of martial arts will progress rapidly. And those who possess spiritual bones are those who have the foundation to enter the immortal path."

"In addition, the more spiritual bones one has, the faster one will be at practicing martial arts! The fewer spiritual bones one has, the faster one will practice martial arts. A person with five spiritual bones will be able to practice martial arts five times faster than a person with only one spiritual bone!"

Cheng Zongyang suddenly raised his hand to signal. Seeing this, Tan Sanniang couldn't help but smile and said, "Ask."

Cheng Zongyang looked at his body and asked, "Where is the spirit bone in the body?"

Upon hearing this, Tan Sanniang rolled her eyes and was speechless for a moment.

If it weren't for Cheng Zongyang's serious look, she really wanted to tell him to get lost.

Finally, she sighed and said, "The situation of the spirit bones is currently mainly a statement made by the sect. And this spirit bone does not refer to specific bones, but the five overall areas.

It controls the spine area of ​​the back and head; it controls the sternum and rib area of ​​the chest; it controls the pelvic area of ​​the waist; it controls the hip area of ​​the lower limbs; and finally, it controls the shoulder blade area of ​​both hands.

These five places are the collective name for the locations of spiritual bones. The presence of spiritual bones means that these five areas have unique and innate strength.

For example, being born with supernatural power, running fast, having strong and dexterous hands, etc. are all feedback from the effect of spiritual bones. After practicing martial arts, the relevant natural advantages will gradually emerge. For example, leg techniques such as body techniques are faster than other martial arts; such as boxing; iron head skills, etc.

Brother, you have all five spirit bones, which means that practicing martial arts will improve your body in all aspects. Do you think the progress is fast?"

Cheng Zongyang nodded. Now he understood. He was born with supernatural power, and his body skills were fast, and his palm skills were also fast. Does that mean he has three spiritual bones?
He asked, “How do you measure this?”

Tan Sanniang: "The three regions' chambers of commerce all have spirit-testing papers that can test the root bones of children over seven years old."

"Thank you. Then please continue to talk about your spiritual roots." Cheng Zongyang clasped his fists and thanked him very seriously.

Tan Sanniang was helpless. She really didn't know why she had the patience to tell this to a boy she had just met. It was far less interesting than sleeping in the room and counting spirit stones.

But when she thought of what Cheng Zongyang had whispered at the door, she continued patiently:

"As for those with spiritual roots, they do not need to practice martial arts, they can directly practice immortal techniques to enter the extraordinary realm. The speed of their practice depends on their spiritual roots.

The first series is a single spiritual root, which is also the purest and the fastest to cultivate. The second series is the second, and the fifth series is the most common, which is also the most difficult and slowest, but also has the greatest potential. "

“Although both spiritual bones and spiritual roots can become extraordinary and begin to practice Qi cultivation, there will still be differences here.

When entering the Qi training realm, spiritual bones and spiritual roots are basically the same.

Those who possess spiritual bones enter the Dao through martial arts, become extraordinary and enter the Qi training stage. Their spiritual bones are equivalent to spiritual roots. The more spiritual bones one has, the slower the speed of cultivation will be!

After such people embark on the path of immortality, the difficulty of cultivation will be the same as that of people with multiple spiritual roots. But once the foundation is laid, the combat power will also be extremely strong.

In a life-and-death battle between Qi training cultivators of the same realm, the one with spiritual bones and spiritual roots will 90% die. You know the reason without my explaining it."

"The fewer spiritual roots a spiritual root person has, the faster he can cultivate!"

"For those without spiritual roots, once they want to embark on the path of immortality, they can only see if they have spiritual bones. The amount of spiritual bones determines the speed of martial arts training. But this also determines the speed of cultivation after embarking on the path of immortality in the future.

Cheng Zongyang understood a little bit and said, "The number of spiritual bones and spiritual roots has the opposite speed in the early stage of cultivation."

After hearing this, Tan Sanniang thought about it for a moment and nodded: "You can say that."

As she spoke, she was afraid that Cheng Zongyang would have trouble understanding, so she immediately gave an example:
"If you have Wood and Gold Spiritual Bones, your martial arts training speed will be twice as fast as that of a person with only one Spiritual Bone. You will also enter the Xiantian realm earlier than a person with only one Spiritual Bone and embark on the path of immortality. But once a person with only one Spiritual Bone also enters the path of immortality, your speed will be reversed. Your advantage in the early stage will become your disadvantage after entering the realm of immortality."

"As for spiritual roots, there is not much to say, unlike spiritual bones. The spiritual roots are determined from the beginning. The number of spiritual roots and the early and late stages determine the speed of cultivation."

Cheng Zongyang digested the information carefully. Although Tan Sanniang did not explain it in too much detail, with his ability to understand, it was enough to explain the theory of spiritual roots and spiritual bones.

As long as one has spiritual roots or spiritual bones, one can basically embark on the path of immortal practice.

But in the martial arts field, the more spiritual bones you have, the faster you can practice. The more the faster! But after you start practicing the immortal way, the more you have, the slower you will be.

Although the speed of spiritual roots is also determined by the number, it is not as complicated as spiritual bones. If it is slow at the beginning, it will be slow, and if it is fast, it will be fast. It is destined.

"Where is your spiritual root?" Cheng Zongyang asked again.

Tan Sanniang shook her head, having expected Cheng Zongyang to say this, and said simply:
"The spiritual root is just outside the Niwan Palace, and has no specific image. But it is outside the Niwan Palace, extending into the five spiritual bone areas like roots, indirectly controlling the meridians, internal organs, blood and flesh of the whole body. Thus forming the five spiritual roots.

You can simply understand it as a special meridian attached to the outside of the Niwan Palace, but far above the meridians, so that it can absorb external spiritual energy into the Niwan Palace, allowing it to control the body more delicately and powerfully, and use the Yuanshen to perceive the outside world. "

"Spiritual bones and spiritual roots complement each other. But people with spiritual roots basically have spiritual bones. But people with spiritual bones may not have spiritual roots.

Of course, there are very few people who have both. This kind of people often have another name, called the immortal body. That is, they are born with the physique of immortal cultivation.

After a spiritual bone practitioner has achieved success in his practice and entered the Tao through martial arts, he will use the vital energy stored in the lower dantian to impact the Niwan Palace along the spiritual roots or mortal roots, and after breaking it open, he will enter inside. The vital energy will combine with the Yin God in the Niwan Palace to form the Yuan Shen, generate spiritual consciousness, and become an immortal cultivator.

Those with spiritual roots also condense and absorb spiritual energy and transform it into vital energy, which is stored in the lower dantian they control. Different paths lead to the same end, and the vital energy impacts the Niwan Palace, and also forms a primordial spirit, becoming an immortal cultivator. "

Cheng Zongyang slowly digested what Tan Sanniang had said in detail. After he wrote it down, Cheng Zongyang was filled with emotion.

"It seems that the five-element spiritual root and five-element spiritual bone have become waste. Even if the martial arts practice is fast, it will be slow to enter the immortal way."

However, Tan Sanniang shook her head and retorted: "Those who have spiritual roots or spiritual bones are all born with talent. There is no such thing as useless talent! There is no such thing as useless talent. The difference lies in the speed. And the reason that determines the speed is the supply of resources."

"The cultivation of a single spiritual root is fast, but it will be slow if the resources are insufficient. The cultivation of five spiritual roots is slow, but it will not be slow if the resources are sufficient. The same is true for spiritual bone qualifications.

Spiritual roots and bones are all determined by nature. There is no such thing as a wasted talent, only insufficient resources.

Besides, if a cultivator of the same realm fights a cultivator with a single spiritual root against a cultivator with five spiritual roots, 90% of the time the cultivator with a single spiritual root will be defeated. Do you still think that cultivators with five spiritual roots are useless?"

Cheng Zongyang was suddenly speechless.

My thinking was greatly influenced by the novels in my previous life, and now I suddenly realized it. Tan Sanniang was also right.

Talent is innate. As long as there are enough resources and the more spiritual roots and bones one has, the more potential he or she has!
But at this moment, Tan Sanniang sighed again:
"Unfortunately, the resources in this world are gradually becoming insufficient. Only those with less than three spiritual roots or less than three spiritual bones have a chance to succeed. Now all the resources of all cultivators, and the only chance, is that place. Okay, come back in two days, and I'll take you to see the house then."

Seeing that Tan Sanniang had no intention of continuing to talk, Cheng Zongyang did not ask any more questions, so he stood up and said, "I have learned a lot. Thank you for your guidance, Sanniang. I will come to bother you again the day after tomorrow!"

Tan Sanniang did not respond, but waved her hand, signaling Cheng Zongyang to leave.

After Cheng Zongyang left, an older woman came to Tan Sanniang's side and asked curiously:

"Sanniang, this is not like your style. You actually talked so much to that little boy? What, are you attracted to him?"

Tan Sanniang also laughed: "This kid's background is probably not simple. He can actually come up with such a large amount of spiritual stones to buy a house. Of course, it's mainly because this kid's personality suits my taste, so I said a few more words out of interest."

"Then you can earn more. Then the East District should be able to let you..."

"No need to say more." Tan Sanniang waved her hand to stop them, and said, "Go get the registration book of all the three-bedroom houses on the south bank of Zi'an River. Also, let them change their clothes, it's time to go out and work."

"Yes, Sanniang." The old woman bowed, turned around and walked slowly inside.

After coming out of Chunmanlou, Cheng Zongyang looked at the slightly deserted and narrow alley, but at this moment he felt his heart open.

He has finally figured out the issues of cultivation in this world.

Although he didn't know his own qualifications, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person. As for whether he had spiritual roots, that was unknown.

However, Cheng Zongyang was also quite curious about the information contained in Tan Sanniang's last sentence.

The world is short of resources, which was already noticed yesterday, so where are their new opportunities?

He didn't think it would be the surface world.

It should be that the surface world could not continue to cultivate, so they moved here. Are they going back? It would be better for them to stay here.

Therefore, he felt that there must be something special here.

Cheng Zongyang temporarily suppressed the idea of ​​exploration and prepared to go to the West District to take a look.

There are many formations, spirit-testing papers, talismans, etc. that I want to buy.

He wanted to understand the formation that could be set up in the new house and to protect Yufeng County.

The bigger this type of formation is, the better. In future planning, the existing space in Yufeng County is naturally not enough to accommodate it. Therefore, it has to accommodate the land outside the city. This means that a larger formation is needed for protection, and the formation can kill innate masters at will.

In addition, he also needs a spirit gathering formation.

Although I don’t know whether there is still spiritual energy in the world above, but with the spirit gathering array, at least I can accumulate a little bit into a lot.

In the future, Yufeng County must become a place for cultivation so that it can live up to the name of a fairy city.

Therefore, what he wanted to buy this time was basically used to transform the county town.

When he returns, it will be time for him to occupy the county.

As for the spirit-testing paper, in addition to its own use, it is also intended to be kept in the county for people who want to become warriors or immortals. Of course, the price will be higher.

Although ordinary people cannot live in the other three districts, it is still no problem for them to buy things.

Many of the items sold in the South District are only suitable for martial artists and ordinary people.

If you want to buy items related to cultivation, you can only go to the other three areas.

The West District is a casual cultivation area, similar to the South District, but different from the South District in terms of the identity and status of the people.

Cheng Zongyang followed the street and headed towards Zi'an River in the northwest direction of the South District.

There are three bridges connecting the three areas. Each bridge is twenty feet wide and is divided into two entrances and exits.

There was no one guarding either side of the bridge, and similarly not many people were going there.

After all, those places are high-consumption areas. Ordinary people may go there for a stroll, but it is impossible for them to spend money there. Even if they go there for a stroll, they may spend money.

Therefore, there are basically not many people who go there except for those who go there for serious business.

Although the county has rules set by the sect that cultivators cannot kill mortals at will, it does not mean that they cannot kill.

Killing them will only result in a heavy fine, which is basically no big deal, and the deaths of these ordinary people will be in vain.

It is impossible for a cultivator to kill other cultivators just because he killed a few mortals. Life for life does not exist here, and at most a heavy fine of some spirit stones will be imposed.

This also makes ordinary people very tactful and avoid going there, so as not to provoke the displeasure of some cultivators and cause disaster.

The road was wide and not crowded. Cheng Zongyang walked along the fifty-meter-long stone bridge with exquisite relief carvings of mountains, rivers and lakes and entered the west district.

Because of the formation, the moment Cheng Zongyang stepped into the west area, he immediately felt the different changes in the air.

This feeling is very obvious, just like a person who has lived in a big city for a long time entering the deep mountains and old forests, the freshness of the air will be very obvious.

And Cheng Zongyang could smell the scent of the spiritual liquid he had collected in this air, but it was much fainter.

This is aura.

Much richer than the South District.
