Chapter 11 – Selecting a Technique
Chapter 11: Selection of magic spells
Qi Haozhi’s mood was a little complicated, but more than that, it was anger and shame.
He started practicing from the first day he entered the Free Sect, and only a few days ago he broke through the first level of Qi cultivation, but this ugly girl who clearly can’t even read big words, actually has the same cultivation level as him!
Doesn’t this mean that the ugly girl’s cultivation speed is even faster than his own?
No, this is impossible!
Xu Chuniang frowned, why was this person as annoying as a fly?
It was only the first level of Qi cultivation, couldn’t she break through?
How could these people know how much time and effort she had put into her cultivation journey?
“Jean Jean, you’re blocking me from picking a spell!”
Xu Chuniang said expressionlessly.
Qi Haozhi, however, didn’t let go and instead stared at Xu Chunniang closely, “I know, you must have used spirit stones to cultivate right?”
Xu Chuniang only found him baffling, what did it matter to him whether she used spirit stones or not?
But there was nothing to deny, she wrapped her arms around herself and squinted at Qi Haozhi.
“So what if it is? Even if I’ve been using spirit stones to cultivate since the first day I tried to draw qi into my body, it’s none of your business, right?”
Hearing her “explanation”, a flash of realization flashed across Qi Haoyi’s face.
No wonder her cultivation speed was faster, so it turned out that she had been using spirit stones all along.
As for why the ugly girl would directly use spirit stones to cultivate, he quickly thought of the reason.
It must be because the dormitory she was assigned to was too poor, and the aura was so thin that she couldn’t cultivate, so she had to use spirit stones.
After finding the reason, the look on Qi Haozhi’s face relaxed again.
Even if the ugly girl had six more spirit stones in her hand than he did, so what, just six spirit stones, but she was assigned to a dormitory where she couldn’t cultivate at all, when the spirit stones in her hand ran out, she would wait to cry!
Sure enough, she was a mud legged person who couldn’t rise to the occasion and was short-sighted!
With this thought, Qi Hao Zhi’s mood flew up, not even bothering to look at Xu Chuniang again, he even felt that his earlier behavior was a bit ridiculous, actually getting nervous because of a mud legged person.
He raised his chin and left, taking his chosen technique with him.
Seeing Qi Haozhi’s demeanor inexplicably condescending, although Xu Chunniang was puzzled, she didn’t bother to care that much and picked out her own spells.
She took a look at this book and touched that one, really wanting them all!
It’s only been more than two months since she entered the Immortal Sect, and Xu Chuniang is no longer the ignorant little village girl she used to be, so she naturally knows the truth that greed can’t be chewed.
More importantly, new disciples were only allowed to choose two spells for free.
She muttered, ”I’m a Water, Wood, and Earth Spiritual Root, so it’s best to choose the magic spells with these three attributes.
Earlier, during the spiritual root test, they said that my water spiritual root was the best, with a spiritual root purity of sixty, my wood spiritual root was the second best, with a purity of only forty-five, and my earth spiritual root was the worst, with a purity of only thirty-five.
So it seems that the most suitable for me should be the water attribute technique, then the wood attribute, and finally the earth attribute.
If I can only pick two, then pick a water attribute one and add a wood attribute one!”
Xu Chuniang landed her gaze on a book of Water Arrow Techniques and was about to take it, but she paused.
The Water Arrow Technique was known to be an attack-type technique at a glance, and after learning it, she would be able to possess a certain level of self-protection.
However, before her cultivation reached the fourth level of Qi cultivation, as long as she didn’t fight with others, the Water Arrow Technique could almost be said to be useless.
The protection period for new disciples was only three years, and after three years, regardless of whether her cultivation level was high or low, she would have to pay the contribution value to the sect. Paying one point a month, she would have to pay a full twelve points a year, coupled with the expenses of six spirit stones a year for the Grain Resistant Pill, even if she didn’t use spirit stones to cultivate, she would have to earn enough contribution points and spirit stones a year before she could do so.
A little contribution can be exchanged for a spirit stone, but a spirit stone can’t buy a little contribution.
Spirit stone still have method to think, but this contribution point is must do task or commission to get, all disciples are no exception.
If it was someone else, they shouldn’t be so worried, but Xu Chuniang was different, she had offended Steward Zhang, if Steward Zhang was determined to give her trouble, she really might not be able to earn enough contribution points.
Xu Chunniang’s eyes crossed over the Water Arrow Technique and landed on the Spiritual Rain Technique.
Her spiritual root was water, wood, and earth, which was very suitable for developing in the direction of spiritual plants.
The Spiritual Rain Technique was also a single water attribute technique, but it was a complete auxiliary technique, and it was also a mandatory method for the introduction of “Spiritual Plants” in the Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation.
As for the function of the Spiritual Rain Technique, it is used to water the spiritual plants.
Having made up her mind, Xu Chuniang painfully discarded the powerful Water Arrow Technique in favor of the Spiritual Rain Technique.
For the second technique, Xu Chuniang thought about it and chose the wood-based Spring Life Technique.
The “Spring Life Technique” was also a mandatory entry-level technique for the “Spiritual Planting” specialty, and since she was determined to develop in the direction of Spiritual Planting, she naturally couldn’t do without the “Spring Life Technique”, which was capable of accelerating the growth of plants.
In the Transmission Pavilion is responsible for the topography of spells, is the steward is a female cultivator, see her choose half a day, but in the end chose a book of spiritual rain art and a book of spring life art, but also did not say anything.
The female cultivator steward quickly printed, handed her two jade slips, and solemnly said, “Remember, any art of the Free Sect shall not be spread out!”
Xu Chuniang nodded, she had memorized the rules of the sect, and knew that privately spreading out the sect’s arts was a major crime, and would result in the abolition of cultivation and expulsion from the Immortal Mountain.
As for why the disciple who privately spread the arts was not killed, Xu Chunniang thought that it should be for deterrence.
After all, letting someone who had embarked on the path of immortality go back to being a mortal was even more difficult than letting someone die.
After receiving the jade slip, Xu Chunniang walked out of the Transmission Pavilion and headed towards the dormitory. Passing by the Hall of Instruction on the way, she hesitated for a moment and ultimately didn’t go in.
The lessons taught by the masters and uncles in the Lecture Hall were certainly good, but what was more important to her right now was to raise her cultivation, after all, cultivation was the root of everything.
Moreover, the arts taught by the senior uncles were all profound arts that could only be learned in the middle and late stages of Qi cultivation, and I’m afraid that such entry-level auxiliary arts as the Spirit Rain Art and the Spring Born Art wouldn’t even be mentioned.
The sun was setting in the west, and Xu Chuniang walked to the foot of the mountain peak where the dormitory was located. It was just that she didn’t choose to go up the mountain, but continued traveling south.
Although she had only stayed outside the dormitory for a few moments last time, she had also sensed that the aura at the top of the mountain could almost be described as barren.
Right now with a better place to cultivate and shelter, she naturally wouldn’t think of staying in that rickety, broken house.
After walking south for half an hour, she finally made it to the cave before it got dark.
Seeing that the pile of weeds she had used to cover the entrance of the cave did not show any signs of having been moved, Xu Chuniang was very satisfied.
The only thing that made her dissatisfied was that every time she went in from the outside, she would inevitably fall into a pool of water ……
Fortunately, the disciple clothes issued by the Easy Sect were not only dustproof and cold-proof, but also waterproof, so she climbed ashore wet, but her clothes were dry and crisp.
After her hair dried, Xu Chuniang began to cultivate as usual. Without the aid of a spirit stone, the speed of cultivation slowed down as far as the eye could see.
Xu Chuniang is not as anxious as she was when she was trapped earlier, so naturally, she can’t use the spirit stone to cultivate directly, and even though the cultivation speed has slowed down a bit, she can only do so.
Today’s Lantern Festival, I added more. The small cuties to be happy ah!
