Ji Taoist

The next day, Yan Buji woke up refreshed after practicing all night. After sending Rou'er away, he found Xiao Ran and greeted him as usual.

"Nephew, did you sleep well yesterday?" Yan Buji asked.

Xiao Ran was dazed and suddenly startled: "Ah? Uncle, I rested well yesterday, thank you uncle."

"Well, do you want to do something during this period?" Yan Buji asked with a smile.

"Um... nephew, I want to go to Linshan Academy to have a look."

"This..." Yan Buji was stunned.

This matter is not difficult, but what is Xiao Ran going to Linshan Academy for?

"Do you want to study?"

"I just want to take a look." Xiao Ran said awkwardly.

Could it be for Rou'er?

Yan Buji looked at him, it was obvious that Xiao Ran was hiding something and didn't tell him, but it was really hard to say if it was not for Rou'er.

Xiao Ran bowed and said, "Uncle, I was just joking just now. I also know that places like academies are not easy to enter. I will walk around the city for a while, and I will leave when the time comes."

"Nephew, don't think uncle is nagging. You have a place to go, but it's not time yet?"

"That's right."

Yan Buji nodded: "Okay, a good man has ambitions in all directions. If you have a good place to go, uncle is sincerely happy for you. You must say hello when you leave, otherwise uncle will not recognize you as his nephew! Here are three hundred taels of silver, take it and spend it."

Xiao Ran waved his hand quickly: "Uncle, how can this be..."

"Don't be polite, what is the relationship between me and Brother Xiao? Brother Xiao is gone, but I am still your elder, and I don't need your little food and drink, take it!" Yan Buji put the silver note directly in his hand and said with a smile.

Xiao Ran took a deep breath and bowed, saying, "Thank you, uncle."

"You're welcome. If you need anything, just come to me. I won't say anything else. I have many acquaintances in Linshan City. I will help you if you encounter any trouble."

"Yes, I will definitely not cause trouble for uncle."

Yan Buji watched Xiao Ran leave and didn't pay much attention to him.

But I always felt that Xiao Ran's attitude towards me was much more restrained today. Could it be that there was something wrong with what I did yesterday that made him feel wrong?

"Not really, I have done my best to him. Could it be that this kid has a lot of thoughts and thinks I have ulterior motives when I treat him well?" Yan Buji asked strangely.

Although he is indeed such a person, Xiao Ran doesn't look like that.

If he is really the same person as himself, then he really has to be careful.

Yan Buji didn't want to do too much, so he arranged two servants to follow him. Of course, these two servants were not specially trained. As long as Xiao Ran is more careful, he can find them, but what he wants is that Xiao Ran can find them.

Yan Buji told the servants to watch Xiao Ran, and if he got into trouble, they should go and help, and don't worry about anything else.

As for whether Xiao Ran would get into trouble, if he really had any plans after discovering the servants, I think these two servants would not be able to follow him.

Yan Buji didn't want to cause any more trouble, but he still had to make the necessary statements.

Xiao Ran left the Yan Mansion and wandered around the city.

Before he walked far, he found two Yan Mansion servants following him, and his heart sank: "Uncle still sent someone to follow me?"

[Hehe, kid, your uncle is not a good person. Maybe he is staring at you to see what your intention is for coming to the Yan family. ]

Xiao Ran laughed: "If that's the case, why would uncle send such an outsider here? He knows that my father was a warrior. Even if I'm not, don't I have good eyesight?"

[If you think so, aren't you just falling into the thinking trap set by the other party? What if the other party wants you to think so? 】

Xiao Ran's face darkened, thinking of how his uncle had no prejudice against him yesterday and today, and had given him enough face, and now he was willing to spend a lot of money, how could he be that kind of scheming person?

[Old thing, although I know that people's hearts are separated by their stomachs, I don't have anything worth your uncle's need, but your uncle has been good enough to me, so don't make any assumptions! ]

[Hmph! ]

The old thing in his mind didn't say anything, obviously he couldn't find any flaws in Yan Buji.

This is indeed the case. Xiao Ran has nothing now, and he shamelessly went to the Yan family. Yan Buji didn't send him away but treated him with courtesy, which shows that he is really a good person.

Even if he really practiced some evil skills.....

Uh.....

[Old thing, what kind of internal skills did your uncle practice? Why do you say it's familiar? ]

Although Xiao Ran felt that his uncle was not a bad person, people who practiced evil skills and magic skills usually need to kill people to practice them, right?

Maybe not, but at least I should find out.

[Hmm... It's a bit like the Demon Blood Non-Human Scripture. This is an evil practice for cultivators. Specifically, it can increase spiritual awareness through blood and magic power, and even have three different accumulations at the same time. ]

[Accumulation? ]

[You don't know what cultivators rely on to fight against the enemy? ]

[Isn't it the legendary flying sword, magic weapon, gourd, etc.? ]

[These things do exist. Do you know where the flying sword and magic weapon came from? ]

[How did they come from? ]

[Accumulation, accumulated. ]

The old man said again: [The word accumulation can be described as ‘accumulation of soil forms a mountain, accumulation of water forms an abyss’. The cultivator relies on his own magic power to fuse spiritual materials, first creating a framework blueprint in the body, and then filling this blueprint through accumulation, and then forming various mysterious instruments such as flying swords and magic weapons. As for the cultivation methods of cultivators, none of them can directly point to the peak of the immortal way. Even in those great forces that have been passed down for thousands of years, there are only countless cultivation methods left for the disciples to choose from. Step by step, combine and arrange, and then practice into a new method to break through the realm, and then choose other methods in a new realm to perfect your own method step by step and break through! ]

Xiao Ran listened with wide eyes, and said in a daze: [It means that every cultivator can only follow his own cultivation method, and everyone's cultivation method can learn from others to integrate into their own method, but it is definitely not suitable for large-scale promotion and practice? ]

The old man laughed: [Hehe, that's right, so do you think that a cultivator can really rely on one top-notch technique to reach the top? In fact, no matter how talented you are, cultivation depends on collecting different types of techniques, constantly adjusting the techniques to improve your mana, and then breaking through the realm! During this period, you also need to refine external objects into accumulations, and adjust your cultivation and enemy tools through accumulations. ]

[For cultivators, accumulations are very important. You can think of accumulations as a kind of fragment. Only when countless accumulations are "accumulated", supplemented by your own understanding of cultivation, and constantly debugging, can you get the function you want. ]

[And these accumulated tools are called accumulation tools, which are divided into three categories: auxiliary cultivation, enemy combat, and heterogeneous accumulation tools. And ordinary Qi training cultivators can't have more than two accumulation tools at most. Only those with extremely high talents who can perfect their own techniques at the peak of Qi training can choose one more accumulation tool. And a single technique can have three types of accumulation tools at the same time. Just think about it, if you are one step ahead, you will be ahead in every step! ]

Xiao Ran found a teahouse to sit down, ordered a pot of tea and thought for a long time.

[So for the cultivators in the cultivation world, the number of accumulation tools is the proof of strength? ]

[Nothing is absolute. Occasionally, there will be a few top masters who specialize in one accumulation tool. But this is the orthodox practice. If you want to practice, each breakthrough in a small realm requires another method to connect the practice you are practicing now; until the breakthrough of the big realm, you need to thoroughly integrate all the methods of the ten levels of realm and practice to perfection before you can break through. If you want to obtain other methods, you either trade with others, or join a large sect with sufficient resources for you to choose; or, you just find ways to rob by trickery, and you need to constantly refine spiritual materials into accumulation and accumulate them into tools. The higher the spiritual material, the more complicated and exquisite the accumulation, and the stronger the accumulation tool. From one to five, it is called the ordinary accumulation tool; from six to nine, it is called the immortal accumulation tool. Most of these tools carry the unique ideas and creativity of the cultivators themselves. Generally speaking, even if they are obtained and refined by others, the power they exert will be greatly reduced! 】
