"Snapped!"

A small white bottle was thrown to the ground, and the shards flew, and the few pills that were originally contained in it were also smashed. 【 】

The elixir was mottled in color and extremely rough, and on the surface of the elixir, occasionally fine grass leaves could be seen.

Lin Mu looked at the elixir that he had smashed with his own hands, feeling powerless in his heart.

This is a bottle of spirit-gathering elixir, and it will be of great benefit to the cultivation base if it is taken by practitioners during the Qi refining period.

It's just that this bottle of spirit-gathering pill is a waste pill!

Abandoned alchemy is the product of alchemy failure, it can't be used for cultivation at all, if it is taken forcibly, it will cause great harm to the body.

When Lin Mu got this bottle of Gathering Spirit Pill, he found that it was another bottle of waste pill.But he endured it and did not attack.Because the person who gave him this bottle of waste pill was a deacon disciple.

In Qianyu Jianmen, Lin Mu is just a handyman, responsible for washing, cooking, carrying water and cleaning.The deacon disciples are specifically responsible for managing the affairs of the outer disciples, and the distribution of Juling Pills is naturally among them.

Every time Lin Mu works as a handyman for a month, the sect will give him two low-grade spirit stones and a bottle of spirit gathering pill.

However, that Deacon Ma took advantage of it and filled his own pocket.Although the two low-grade spirit stones would not be deducted, the Juling Pill was shoddy, and the waste pill was distributed to Lin Mu. The intact Juling Pill was swallowed by him and he took it himself.

This is the third time Lin Mu has obtained the Abandoned Pill, and it has been three months since Deacon Ma has been in charge of the affairs of the outer disciples.That is to say, after he came, Lin Mu never got a complete Gathering Spirit Pill again, and now it seems that there is no way to count on it in the future.

After working hard for a month, but getting nothing in the end, who can not be angry?

It's just that apart from being angry, Lin Mu felt more powerless in his heart.That deacon Ma has already cultivated to the seventh level of Qi refining, and he has just refined the third level of Qi, so he has no strength to resist at all.

Moreover, Lin Mu himself knew that low cultivation was not the main reason.The reason why that deacon Ma is like this is because Lin Mu is the spiritual root of the five elements.

Spiritual roots are extremely important to cultivators.In the realm of self-cultivation, a single spiritual root is the best, such as a single water spiritual root and fire spiritual root, followed by dual spiritual roots, such as water and fire spiritual roots, earth and wood spiritual roots, and thirdly, three spiritual roots , the worst is the Five Elements Spiritual Root.The better the spiritual root, the more sensitive the response to the aura of heaven and earth, and the faster the practice speed.

Lin Mu's spiritual root is the worst of the five elements.His spiritual root is too balanced, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and five elements are all present, but none of them stand out.Compared with other disciples, his ability to sense the aura of heaven and earth is more than half weaker.Although he has worked very hard, he will practice the mental method taught by the school three times when others practice it once.But after three years, the others are already at the fifth level of qi refining, and he is still hovering at the third level of qi refining.Moreover, as time goes by, this gap will become wider and wider.

That Deacon Ma liked Lin Mu's slow progress in cultivation, so he swallowed Lin Mu's spirit-gathering pill without conscience.He didn't have to worry that Lin Mu would surpass him one day in cultivation and seek revenge on him.

Coupled with the fact that he withheld Lin Mu's Spirit Gathering Pill, Lin Mu's practice speed would be even slower, but his practice speed would instead increase a bit.He has no worries, that's why he is so unscrupulous.

Lin Mu sat on the futon in the quiet room with his head depressed, the broken tiles and mottled medicine seemed to be silently mocking him.

Lin Mu no longer had the heart to practice, sitting on the futon in the room in a daze, his heart filled with sorrow.

After a long time, the room became pitch black. Lin Mu took a jade pendant from his neck and wept silently while holding the jade pendant in his hand, with tears flowing freely on his face.

He remembered his parents' instructions before leaving, asking him to practice hard in the door.Before leaving, his mother put the only valuable thing in the family - a family heirloom jade pendant, around his neck, hoping to keep him safe.

That was three years ago, Lin Mu's hometown was in a famine, starvation was everywhere, and Lin Mu's family had no rice to cook.The family depended on the bark for a living, and later the bark was eaten up, making life unsustainable.

At that time, it happened that the elders of Qianyu Jianmen went there to select outer disciples, saying that if they entered Qianyu Jianmen, they would have no worries about food and clothing.

When Lin Mu's father heard about this, he looked at Lin Mu who was already too thin to resemble a human figure, and felt a burst of sadness in his heart.He took Lin Mu on a mountain road for dozens of miles, rushed to the elder, knelt on the ground, and begged the elder to accept Lin Mu.He knew that immortals would be separated forever, and it would be difficult to meet again in the future, but he couldn't just watch his son starve to death in front of him.

The elder inspected Lin Mu's roots and said that Lin Mu had spiritual roots for cultivating immortals, but the spiritual roots were too poor, and there was no hope of seeking immortality.

Lin Mu's father knelt on the ground and kowtowed beggingly, nodding like garlic, his forehead bleeding profusely.Lin Mu kept kowtowing while he was busy.Seeing their sincerity, the elder felt compassionate and accepted Lin Mu to enter the mountain gate.

After Lin Mu entered Qianyu Jianmen, he did not have to worry about food and clothing, but because of his poor spiritual roots, he practiced slowly and received all kinds of cold eyes. Now he is being blatantly deprived of his hard-earned income by Deacon Ma.

Lin Mu missed his parents very much, wondering if they survived the famine.Several times, he wanted to go down the mountain and go home to visit his parents.

But Qianyu Jianmen has a gate rule, and it is not allowed to go down the mountain until the foundation building period.

This means that if the foundation cannot be established, Lin Mu will never see his parents again in this life.

Therefore, he has been cultivating assiduously all along, hoping to build a foundation as soon as possible so that he can go back as soon as possible.

It's just that his spiritual roots are too weak, and his progress in cultivation has been slow. Now that his spirit gathering pill has been swallowed by Deacon Ma, the foundation establishment is probably even more hopeless.

It took him three years of hard work to reach the third level of Qi Refining.There are ten layers in the Qi refining period, and the further you go, the slower the speed.At his speed, it may take 50 years to build the foundation.

After 50 years, both parents must have passed away long ago.

When Lin Mu thought of his parents growing old alone, there was no one to accompany them before they died.The heart is even more sad, the grief comes from it, the crying is even worse, and the wail is endless.

Holding the jade pendant tightly with both hands, resting his forehead on both hands, weeping bitterly.The crying was suppressed, and the whimpering was difficult.

After a while, the crying stopped, Lin Mu hugged the jade pendant, and silently wiped away his tears.

I secretly vowed in my heart that I must build a foundation, and see my parents again in my lifetime.
