Can Scientific Cultivators Penetrate into the Second Dimension

After doing all this, Shen Ao returned to his familiar gentle smile, and smiled as "Senior Brother Shen": "Brother, I've been waiting for a long time."

9. The upgrade and transformation of Qi and Ying in the middle stage of Qi training

When he was going to the sect mission site to settle his personal affairs, senior brother Shen told Lin Xiu a story: a story about the birth of an unwelcome life in the palace.

In general, it is not much different from what Lin Xiu heard from the hearsay when he first started, but it is still more vivid and specific to say it from the mouth of the person involved.

"Junior, do you know who the person who called me Brother Shen just now is?"

Lin Xiu shook his head.

"He is the prince of Qian Kingdom, once upon a time."

Hearing this, Lin Xiu didn't know what expression to make for a moment.

Shen Ao just said to himself: "At that time, there were many people who bullied me in the palace, but he was not included. It's ridiculous. With our identities at that time, he didn't even know that I existed like an ant. Don't say that you specifically targeted me. But it is such a brother who has nothing to do with me, but became the first victim after I worshiped He Guizong, just because he happened to be the prince, but I was not the prince."

Aside from being silent, Lin Xiu also had a deeper understanding of the existence of immortal cultivators.

Perhaps it was because he had already stepped into the mountain gate of Heguizong when he crossed, and he was surrounded by fellow practitioners, so that he gradually ignored the biggest barrier that naturally existed in this world: the difference between immortals and ordinary people.

An illegitimate son of an emperor is worse than an ant, but a disciple of He Guizong is naturally superior to all imperial power, so that the emperor did not hesitate to do something to his favorite child in order to please him. There is no doubt that as long as the current Shen Ao shows even a little intention, the former prince will be killed immediately.

"Phew~ Let the younger brother listen to some boring things."

Pulling himself together, Senior Brother Shen stretched out his finger to the hill in the distance: "That's Monkey Mountain."

How should I say the next thing... It's much simpler than imagined.

Thinking that this would be the first challenge he faced after coming to this world, Lin Xiu was even prepared to get injured and run away—a "Shenxing Talisman" thrown by Mr. Qian before leaving gave to him. Lin Xiu was so confident, but he knew that in the end, Lin Xiu didn't even have a chance to make a move. Instead, he watched Senior Brother Shen fight all the way from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, plowing the forest over and over again with his "heavy water trick" like a steamroller. Lin Xiu just needs to call 666 from behind.

During the conversation, Lin Xiu also knew what level of senior brother Shen's cultivation had reached.

"If there are no accidents, senior brother returning to the mountain will be in retreat this time. Junior brother must work harder so that we can meet in the inner sect as soon as possible."

——The sixth level of Qi training.

He didn't grow up eating spiritual energy, did he?

He got the fruit wine smoothly, and went back to the mountain gate without any surprises to complete the task. In this way, the traverser's first mission of the outer gate of surviving a near death was completed, gratifying to congratulate.

……

"I suspect I'm a piece of shit."

D-level No. 77 ground stove, after renting this ground stove for a month with a spirit stone, before officially starting to practice, Lin Xiu habitually called out "Ying", his face full of displeasure.

"At first I thought that I had developed my own gold finger and could reach the pinnacle of life, but in the end I couldn't even call it copper."

Glancing at the iron sword: "At best, it's an iron finger."

Ying remained silent as usual, and Lin Xiu was already used to it. After venting his emotions a little, he devoted himself to a new round of practice, but this time he set a small goal for himself: not to enter the middle stage of Qi refining, not to go out!

……

"Clang~"

"Clang~"

"Clang~"

Three distant bells rang in succession, and Lin Xiu opened his eyes in Room [-], District C, where the disciples of the outer sect resided, and slowly calmed down the surging spiritual power in his body.

"Three years."

The last time I heard this bell was the last time.

Three years ago, Lin Xiu at that time came to this world without knowing anything, passed the entrance test without knowing anything, and spent the first three months in confusion and anxiety, and then A little bit of exploration, a little bit of understanding, a little bit of change... Until now, Lin Xiu has been able to announce with confidence——

"I, Lin Xiu, a monk in the middle stage of Qi training!"

fluorescent:……

"Don't worry about Ying, although you despise me, I won't give up on you!"

Patting Ying's still stiff shoulder, Lin Xiu was much more satisfied.

After Lin Xiu broke through the third level of qi training half a year ago and became a genuine middle-stage qi training monk, in addition to his physical fitness and senses in various aspects, he also improved his spells.

Among them, the "Hidden Sword Jue" that cannot be used is temporarily omitted, and the cultivation of "Wooden Puppet Art" has been intuitively improved. Although the summoned Ying still can't use any spells, it can already control the body. The wood-attribute aura strengthens the wooden sword on the opponent, and at the same time, it can also burst out through a short-term spiritual blessing when maneuvering.

Not only the internal strengthening, after deciding to use "Ying" as a long-time "dao friend" and "combat ally", Lin Xiu also strengthened her in various ways during this year, including but not limited to replacing her with a higher body. The spiritual wood of the year, the collection of spiritual liquid that can cultivate spiritual plants, etc.

Up to now, the "Ying" in front of Lin Xiu is no longer the monotonous emerald green at the beginning, but has blond hair - from the ten-year Lingmu Jinsinan, and the white flower decoration on the blond hair - from the eight-year The spirit flower Bai Yunhua, and the snow-white dress on her body - from the 13-year-old spirit vine Baijuan vine, and as the core body - a full 20-year-old Qiansizhu.

As an expensive resource that Lin Xiu spent three whole spirit stones in exchange for, the wooden puppets summoned with Qiansizhu as the main body not only have a slender skin color similar to human beings, but are also far superior to ordinary spirit wood in terms of flexibility.

In general, unless you encounter a fire-attribute magic cultivator who has restrained the wood-attribute, Ying is now able to deal with a monk at the fourth level of qi training alone.

Of course, in order to perfect Ying to this level, Lin Xiu has paid a lot of resources. Apart from maintaining his own practice, he has almost invested in the rewards of several sect missions that he has received this year. .

"Okay, the preparations are complete, let's go Pipiying!"

fluorescent:……

He Guizong, the outer gate hall.

Following the gradually crowding crowd, Lin Xiu quickly came to this vast site, and there were many immortal cultivators with deep aura around him, but the ones that really caught the eye were in the sky——

Following the depressive exclamations around, Lin Xiu also raised his head, and saw figures dragging various auras falling to the front of the hall from time to time on the dense mountain gate, and figures with powerful auras stepped out of it. I saw Shen Ao's figure unexpectedly, but the latter was busy with the female cultivators around him and didn't notice Lin Xiu's existence.

Those are all disciples of the same period who have already stepped into the late stage of Qi training. With the power of the magic weapon, these heaven's favored children have initially obtained the power to escape gravity and fly freely in the sky, and that is also Lin Xiu's next pursuit.

Soon, with the arrival of all the disciples He Guizong had accepted under his sect three years ago, three melodious bells rang again.

At the same time as He Guizong's new round of acceptance ceremony outside the gate, a ceremony to determine the future fate of Lin Xiu and others was also officially held.

10. Foreign Affairs Disciple

Many disciples present did not wait long. After the bell rang for the third time, a wooden boat floating in the sky slowly landed. Under the gaze of many eyes, a short and fat figure appeared above it, examining the 300 meters below. Many disciples said slowly: "I am the person in charge of all affairs in the inner sect. My surname is Lei. You can call me Master Lei."

More than 450 disciples in the first phase of the 300th saluted together: "Master Lei."

"Ah."

Even though the distance was still far away, Master Lei's voice was clearly conveyed to everyone's ears.

"It's been three years since you got started, and you've found your own direction. Next, we'll arrange where you go. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can raise it."

Of course, no one dared to express dissatisfaction with a Golden Core cultivator.

Nodding his head in satisfaction, Master Lei read in a deep voice: "Su Qingmiao, Zhang Shiquan, Liu Sheng, Shen Ao, Sun Zuotian... You guys are not arrogant or impetuous in your practice, and you are brave and diligent. You can follow me into the river and return to the inner school of the sect."

The eight people whose names were read came out from the crowd and saluted Master Lei: "The disciple takes orders."

No surprises, eight of the people whose names were read are already in the late stage of Qi training, and without exception, they are all geniuses with more than [-]% single-attribute spiritual roots. If there is no accident, they will be the future elders of the foundation stage , or even the Jindanqi Daoist after a long time.

However, among the more than 300 outer sect disciples in this period, only these eight people can achieve this kind of achievement, and the rest need to choose their own destination...

After Lei Zhenren left with the eight inner disciples, the elders of the foundation establishment stage began to arrange for the remaining monks. The time of the golden core stage monks is very precious, and even wasting a few moments on the disciples of the qi refining stage is not enough. It seems extravagant, that is, a few inner disciples who may become their peers can be included in the eyes, as for the others, they will naturally be handed over to the monks at the base building stage or even the Qi refining stage, otherwise the sect will raise them so much. What are many people doing?

The foundation-building monks are naturally not as powerful as the Jindan monks, and they can't easily transmit their voices to everyone's ears clearly. They can only divide the remaining monks into two parts, and one part is too large - accounting for [-]%. A little more, one piece is too small-accounting for more than [-]%.

Lin Xiu is in the [-]% part.

Standing in the [-]% group, Lin Xiu watched as the [-]% people were half-guided and half-expelled out of the open space. They were the ones who were eliminated, and they still hadn't entered the middle stage of Qi training after three years of practice. Human beings, there are only two kinds of futures waiting for them: fall from outer disciples to handyman disciples, spend their whole lives repaying the resources that the sect spent on them, and then accumulate precious cultivation resources little by little, hoping to one day be able to use their own Later generations or family members push this path.

In other words, he gave up his practice and was expelled from the school after erasing the spiritual power in his body and all related memories about He Guizong, and has never had anything to do with the world of cultivating immortals.

Cruel?

It's cruel, but from the perspective of the whole world of cultivating immortals, He Guizong's handling measures can be called "benevolent and righteous". For those demons, let alone survived safely, once they fail to pass the screening, all they have to do is wait for them from their bodies. Until the soul is squeezed out of fate.

In such a way, the various sects in the world of cultivating immortals have taught their disciples a lesson: the world of cultivating immortals is far more than just the peace and scenery on the surface.

After more than [-]% of the disciples were taken away, the whole venue became much more spacious. The rest of the outer disciples were brought back to the center, and a thin builder with a mustache came to the front, and cast He cast a spell for loudspeaker and shouted: "I am Ma Bande from the outer gate of the chief commander, you can call me Elder Ma."

Hearing this name, Lin Xiu, who was still immersed in the grief of the expelled disciple rabbit and fox for a second, almost froze, and finally coughed to cover it up. The surrounding classmates cast puzzled eyes, but quickly turned their attention again. Turn back to Elder Ma's words.

"Although you can't compare to the proud sons of heaven who stepped into the inner sect, you are still proud enough to go from scratch to this step in three years, and those who can stay will all be included in the outer sect of He Guizong. Tian can be included in the inner sect if he can practice Qi perfectly. But before that, it is impossible for the sect to support you for nothing like the previous three years. Now you have three choices—"

"First, join the Baiyitang of the outer sect, alchemy, weapon refining, array, talisman...choose one of them to study intensively, complete the tasks assigned by the sect on time to obtain cultivation resources; second, join the deacon of the outer sect, Patrol, law enforcement... one of the nine halls, complete the tasks assigned by the sect every day; the third is to become a disciple of the sect's foreign affairs, the sect still has a fixed monthly elixir, but must complete the external tasks assigned by the sect. "

Speaking of which, Elder Ma paused for a while: "It should be noted that the tasks assigned by the sect often involve matters outside the sect's boundaries, so it is impossible to practice all kinds of arts in the sect or join the nine sects of the outer sect. As safe as the hall, think carefully about what you need before making a choice."

After finishing speaking, Elder Ma didn't say much, but simply left, and handed over the rest of the matter to the disciples in the Deacon Hall.

Looking at the noisy surroundings, Lin Xiu exhaled and moved towards the registration office, and soon came to the registered deacon disciples.

"Brother has already made a decision?"

Lin Xiu nodded: "I choose to become a foreign disciple."

The disciples in the deacon's hall were a little surprised: "Master, have you thought it through?"

What can I do if I can't figure it out?Lin Xiu has no other choice.

It's not that Lin Xiu doesn't want to choose the first two, the problem is the first one - the premise of joining the Outer Sect Baiyitang is to master the corresponding spells, such as the fire control formula for alchemy and the hundred forging formula for weapon refining. For ordinary cultivators, it is easy to learn, but there are differences in the degree of mastery, but for Lin Xiu, a "heterogeneous" whose practice method is contrary to common sense, the difficulty of mastering a new spell from zero to master is no more difficult than modifying it. The exercises are much simpler, and the success rate is not guaranteed.

It is safe to join the Nine Halls of the Outer Gate, but the problem is that there is no time to practice.

Lin Xiu's cultivation method is doomed to stay in a specific place for a long time. At this stage, it is next to the D-level ground stove, and he may go somewhere in the future. In this case, he has to complete the "Zongmen daily tasks" every day. There is no way to practice.

After thinking about it, Lin Xiu can only choose the third one.

Fortunately, Lin Xiu had already made a lot of preparations for this day. Thinking of his own body, Lin Xiu smiled at the deacon disciple in front of him: "I think it through."

11. "Fairy"

"Foreign disciples? Foreign affairs disciples are good, one day you will not even have to collect your body if you die outside."

The day after deciding the destination of the outer disciples, Lin Xiu, who had just chosen to become a foreign disciple, received his first mission from the sect that night, packed up the next day, and went to the Buddhist scriptures Pavilion to explain to Elder Qian before leaving. But I heard such a speech.

Lin Xiu's mouth twitched, and he said helplessly: "This junior has no other way. No one is proficient in all the arts of cultivating immortals, and the nine halls of the outer sect are cumbersome and boring. If you want to continue practicing, only the foreign affairs hall can do it." chosen."

Old Qian snorted when he heard the words, and said in a bad mood: "Based on what you say, doesn't it mean that no one who chooses to cultivate immortals and do foreign affairs will not be able to become a talent?"

Lin Xiu quickly denied it.

Seeing Lin Xiu's reaction, Mr. Qian couldn't help but sighed: "You, you, you just think too much... You have to come to see me now, if you come two days earlier, you'd be afraid to put on the old man's face. Can't find a place where you can practice with peace of mind?"

Lin Xiu smiled and did not answer.
