Chapter 89 The Three Arrogant, Treacherous, and Stupid People of the Five Elements Peak
The Cultivation Ceremony lasted for three days. After three days, the results of all the assessments came out.
In this year's Cultivation Ceremony, the Cultivation Sect recruited a total of 280 true disciples, more than 1,200 outer disciples, and more than 1,400 registered disciples who stayed behind to continue practicing in various peaks and wait for the next Cultivation Ceremony. The huge mountain, Wendao Mountain, disappeared shortly after the end of the Cultivation Ceremony on the third day, as if it had never appeared.
Such a large number of disciples, put into the inner mountain of the entire Cultivation Sect, is like fish entering a lake, and it is impossible to show how many there are.
There are seven spiritual peaks in the inner mountain of the Cultivation Sect. The main peak, Baoxiao Peak, is located in the center and is the most mysterious. Whether it is a true disciple, an outer disciple or a registered disciple, there is basically no chance to contact this peak. Unless it is a true disciple with a different spiritual root, there is such an opportunity. However, it seems that there are only more than 30 true disciples with different spiritual roots in the entire Cultivation Sect.
This first giant peak of Jinji Ridge, which is more than 5,000 feet high, is the cave of the two mysterious supreme elders of the Xiuzhen Sect. It is also the place where the three great elders of the sect who are in the late Jindan stage practice in seclusion. These three great elders in the late Jindan stage are said to be cultivators with different spiritual roots. Zhang Feng was fortunate to become the direct disciple of one of the great elders with wind spiritual roots, Wuzhen. Since parting with Zhang Feng at the foot of the Daodao Mountain, Wu Yan has never seen him again.
Surrounding Baoxiao Peak, there are five spiritual peaks with different spiritual colors, namely the five spiritual peaks of gold, wood, water, fire and earth. The distribution of these five spiritual peaks is really peculiar. They are completely formed naturally according to the five elements. In the world of Xiuxian, such a peculiar distribution of spiritual energy like the mountain gate of Xiuzhen Sect is really rare.
The last spiritual peak is the most peculiar. This spiritual peak is located more than 50 miles north of Baoxiao Peak and the five spiritual peaks. This spiritual peak is not tall, only more than 500 feet high, and the radius is only about 5 miles. It is said to be peculiar because it seems to be a smaller version of Baoxiao Peak. Whether it is the shape of the mountain or the spiritual energy lingering on the mountain, it is exactly the same as Baoxiao Peak.
In a valley at the foot of the mountain below this spiritual peak, there is a small building. This small building consists of a huge cave house, Wuxing Cave, opened at the foot of the mountain of the spiritual peak, and a small courtyard outside the cave. The small courtyard has only seven or eight simple stone houses.
This spiritual peak is the hall where Wu Yan is practicing now. There is a stone tablet more than two meters high outside the gate of the small courtyard, and three big characters "Wuxing Hall" are engraved on the tablet.
Wu Yan, who has been a true disciple of Wuxing Hall for more than a month, is sitting cross-legged in one of the stone houses in the courtyard of Wuxing Hall with an expressionless face, flipping through a pile of classics in front of him. Occasionally, when he looks up, he will show a thoughtful expression, and I don’t know what he is thinking about.
The master Jin Renfeng left the cultivation sect more than two months ago and went out to travel. It is unknown when he will come back. There were also three seniors in the foundation-building period, but they were all practicing in seclusion in the Five Elements Cave.
When they first came to the Five Elements Hall, the three of them were still vying to accept Wu Yan as their apprentice, but Wu Yan's words made the three of them start to avoid Wu Yan every day like avoiding the plague god.
In fact, Wu Yan did not say anything outrageous, but was just concerned about when he could build his foundation, so he asked: "Three uncles and uncles, which one can give me a foundation-building pill, and I will worship that one as my master, how about it?"
This sentence was originally very ordinary, but it became very unusual here.
Foundation-building pills are the pills that Qi-refining cultivators dream of to assist in building their foundations. No one knows which cultivator invented it and when it was passed down. However, in the world of immortal cultivation, there are more than one type of foundation-building pills, but six.
Among these six types of foundation-building pills, five are very precious, but they are not impossible to obtain, just a little difficult. It is said that any type of foundation-building pill is worth thousands of spirit stones. However, if there is a price, it means that it can still be obtained. The last kind of foundation-building pill is simply something that only exists in legends. No matter how much spiritual stones you spend, you can't buy it.
In the world of immortal cultivation, almost all elixirs have this classification. However, the elixirs circulating in the world of immortal cultivation generally have only five classifications, and there is no sixth classification at all.
Wu Yan now realized how big a trouble he had encountered.
It turned out that in the world of immortal cultivation, not only the cultivation methods have five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, but all the supplies and tools of cultivators have these five classifications. For example, immortal cultivators who practice gold-attributed methods have this restriction when taking pills, absorbing spiritual energy, using magic tools, and taming spiritual insects and beasts. It is said that this restriction will not disappear unless they practice to the stage of transformation and ascend to heaven.
Wu Yan practiced the elementary method of "Qi Xing Xiu Zhen Jue" in "Five Elements Sword Canon". If he wants to build a foundation, he must take the sixth non-existent foundation-building pill-five elements attribute foundation-building pill to be effective.
It has to be said that this is a reality that makes Wu Yan speechless and even desperate.
After he started practicing, he has been practicing on his own, and no master has ever guided him in his practice. Even though he later participated in some casual practice exchange meetings, those were the lowest and most superficial exchanges, and his understanding of the world of immortal cultivation was negligible. This also led to him not knowing many of the most basic common sense of the world of immortal cultivation.
However, Wu Yan finally decided to stay in Wuxing Peak to practice, instead of looking for the headmaster to change to another Lingfeng Hall. The reason for this is naturally closely related to Wu Yan's personality and style of doing things.
Almost all immortal cultivators know that the speed of practicing the five-element combined cultivation method is slow and the difficulty is definitely several times that of practicing a single-attribute method. However, the benefits of practicing the five-element combined cultivation method are also obvious.
The magic power cultivated by the single-attribute method is also single. The magic tools, magic treasures, and elixirs they use must be of the same attribute as their own, otherwise the effects and effects they can play are pitifully low. For example, if a cultivator who practices the gold-attribute method takes a wood-attribute elixir, the effect of the medicine is only one-tenth or even less. If a cultivator who practices the wood-attribute method uses a magic tool of fire attribute, the power that the magic tool can play is even less than one-tenth.
However, cultivators who practice the five-element combined cultivation method do not have such restrictions. They can take elixirs of any attribute, use magic tools of any attribute, and can definitely play the greatest role and power. They can practice any spell, and they can also play the greatest power.
Such tempting conditions, let alone Wu Yan, I am afraid that any immortal cultivator will be tempted.
However, considering the difficulty of practicing the Five Elements Simultaneous Cultivation Method, I am afraid that among ten thousand cultivators, not even one would be confident that he could succeed.
Sometimes, Wu Yan himself felt uncertain. I am afraid that if he did not have that mysterious little furnace, Wu Yan would never choose to stay in the Five Elements Hall, but would go to find the head of the Cultivation Sect, Master Zhenxuzi, without hesitation, and ask him to help him change the Lingfeng Hall immediately, even if he had to abandon it and rebuild it.
With that mysterious little furnace, Wu Yan does not have to worry about not having enough pills to take. If he practices slowly, he can make up for it with a large amount of pills. When he thought that if he succeeded in practicing in the future, his mana, spells, and even magic weapons would be stronger than other cultivators of the same level, his heart became hot.
Isn't it just pills? At most, he can secretly plant a large number of spiritual herbs and medicines of various attributes, and then refine them into pills to take, can't he make up for it?
The three unkind guys from the Five Elements Peak said that the reason they were able to successfully build their foundation was because their master, Grandmaster Jin Renfeng, spent countless efforts to prepare five foundation-building pills of various properties for each of them to take, which enabled them to successfully build their foundation. If they can do it, then naturally I can do it too. Anyway, I heard that Grandmaster Jin Renfeng has the recipe for the foundation-building pill. At worst, I can wait for him to come back and ask for the recipe myself, and then secretly refine five foundation-building pills of different properties to take, right? Wu Yan didn't even dare to think about asking Grandmaster Jin Renfeng to give him pills.
He found out that these three lucky guys were all disciples of the lineage of the Golden Rooster God, and he, Wu Yan, was just an outsider. How could the two be compared?
Thinking of this, Wu Yan naturally put aside those unrealistic ideas and stayed here to practice steadily.
The three guys in the foundation-building period of the Five Elements Peak have all been hiding in the Five Elements Cave for retreat these days. The courtyard of the Five Elements Hall has now become Wu Yan's territory.
Mo Ao, who brought Wu Yan here, is still somewhat responsible. Although he regrets that he cannot accept Wu Yan as a disciple, he still gave Wu Yan the key to the Five Elements Peak warehouse and let him use the classics and notes collected in the warehouse to explore and practice.
The other two guys are a sloppy old beggar named Feng Hanxiao, who is thief-like and happy all day long. He smiles at everyone he sees. Wu Yan thought that this old guy was the easiest to talk to and get along with at first. Who knew that this old guy, when he heard that Wu Yan wanted a foundation-building pill, was the first to slip into the Five Elements Cave. More than a month has passed, and he has never come out again. No wonder this old guy is so sloppy. Wu Yan thought maliciously.
There is also an old scholar named Tian Qi, who has a dull expression all day long and is old-fashioned. He is as difficult to get along with as an old pedant. Although this person was not as exaggerated as Feng Hanxiao and the old beggar Feng, he also refused Wu Yan's request for the foundation-building pill. However, he refused not to give Wu Yan the foundation-building pill, but to accept Wu Yan as his disciple. This move is even more extreme. If you are not my disciple, I have no responsibility and obligation to give you the foundation-building pill, right? Who said this guy is stupid? He is smarter than anyone else, right?
Among these three guys, Mo Ao is in the early stage of foundation-building, and Feng Hanxiao and Tian Qi are both in the middle stage of foundation-building. It is said that in the cultivation sect, the three are called "the three absolutes of arrogant, treacherous and stupid".
"Don't ask for help from others for everything. I still rely on myself for everything." Wu Yan sighed, thought about it, moved a large pile of ancient books in front of him back to the warehouse, sealed the forbidden door of the warehouse, walked out of the valley, and walked out of the Five Elements Peak.
