Who said I practiced the exercises incorrectly?

Chapter 99: Taking stock of the harvest, overjoyed

The next day.

South of Weiwuyuan.

In a quiet and elegant secluded courtyard.

The flowers and grasses are lush and beautiful.

The water flows gently and the rockery is majestic.

bedroom.

The expensive incense has burned out, leaving only a gray ash.

The air is filled with a simple, elegant and light scent that smells particularly soothing.

This is the calming incense that only gold medal worshippers are equipped with. It can calm the mind and allow people to practice meditation more quickly.

"Whoops."

A deep breath slowly came out of Ning Yan's mouth.

A pair of eyes immediately opened in the room.

Black and white are distinct, and the brilliance is contained within.

After getting a rough feel of the condition inside his body, Ning Yan couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

"The speed of practicing the Four Symbols True Art is still quite good. It looks like it will only take a few days to reach the peak of Qi Gathering."

“But the real difficulty comes after reaching the peak of Qi Gathering.”

"It's not so easy to break through the level of the Violent Realm."

Ning Yan's brows furrowed slightly.

Today, he is no longer a layman in the world of cultivation and has gained a lot of understanding about it.

Throughout the entire Qingcang, there are only ten violent warriors, each of whom has a name. The last warrior who broke through to the violent realm was four years ago.

During these four years, among the nearly three-digit people at the peak of Qi Gathering in Qingcang County, not a single person with Qi Violence was born, which shows how difficult it is to break through the levels.

Sometimes Ning Yan also thought that whether it was violent energy or gathering energy, they were both the initial stages of cultivation, and it shouldn't be so difficult to break through.

Referring to the online novels he has read, cultivation is usually easy at first and then becomes difficult. Only in the middle and late stages will one get into certain realms and levels, as well as worldly perceptions.

“Perhaps, this is not because the cultivation in this world is too difficult, but because I have not yet come into contact with the true profound method, the true cultivation.”

"Just like in the past, many children in mountain villages could not read English letters correctly when they entered junior high school, but in big cities, many of their peers could even take the IELTS exam.

Is this because the village kids are not talented?
No, this is the gap in educational resources!
It’s a problem of the external environment!”

“These problems, when reported to me, are also temporarily unsolvable.

If you want to get in touch with more advanced mysterious methods, you have to leave Qingcang County.

But for those below the Violent Qi Realm, without many years of business experience, it is too dangerous to travel outside.”

"I have to break through to the Violent Qi Realm first."

“So this has become a knot that has trapped many people.”

"If you want to break through the violent anger, you must first obtain the mysterious method."

"If you want to get the Xuan Fa, you must leave Qing Cang first."

"If you want to leave Qingcang, you must first break through the violent energy."

Damn, what a perfect vicious circle.

Ning Yan finally understood the mentality of the first and second brothers when they reached the peak of Qi Gathering and went out of the city. In order to fight off their anger, they would rather take risks in the outside world than stay in the city and endure it.

But after so much time has passed, it is still unknown whether they have succeeded.

Of course, even if they succeed, it doesn’t mean that this path is completely risk-free.

More similar adventurers are likely to die in obscurity along the way.

"But just because they can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it either."

"After all, I am a genius with a very high level of comprehension. Perhaps I can successfully break through to the level of violent energy without leaving Qingcang."

“And even if I’m stuck at the peak of Qi Gathering, I can definitely cultivate to the point where I can kill the violent Qi, and then go outside to look for a chance to break through. This is much safer than an ordinary person.”

After figuring out the future path, Ning Yan suddenly became determined.

So he stopped hesitating and began to take stock of what he had gained during the period of eradicating the evil cultivators.

Leaving aside the miscellaneous gold and silver, the most important thing is naturally the piece of cloth stuffed into the sole of the shoe by the man in green, and the blue-covered volume given by the tall and thin middle-aged man.

No matter whether it was a piece of cloth or a scroll, a large part of the content was about the practice of "The Secret of the Solitary God's Ascension to the Peak". It even recorded many words and sentences related to the secret book, but they were too fragmented to form a main text.

“Although ‘Sole God’s Ascending Skill’ is an evil skill, and it is even likely to be a skill that many evil cultivators participated in experimenting with, some of its contents are quite reference-worthy and can be used to further deduce ‘Four Symbols True Skill’.”

"Perhaps my chance to break through my violent temper in the future will depend on this technique."

"Besides that, this technique gives me a very strange feeling. It seems that it is not only used to help people break through violent anger, but also seems to hide something else."

"Tsk, there is still too little information after all. Even if I get a few more training records, I can sort it out completely."

Ning Yan shook his head in annoyance and continued to flip through the blue volume.

In addition to the experience of cultivation, this blue scroll also records some other things, such as detailed maps of some areas outside the city, methods of dealing with certain evil spirits, and edible fruits on the roadside, etc.

These are priceless treasures to Ning Yan. They can further complete the map he got from Old Man Gao Guan and reduce the danger of leaving the city in the future.

In addition, Ning Yan was very interested in the matter mentioned above.

It is rumored that there is an old Taoist priest wandering outside the city, known as the "Mountain Moving Taoist". As long as you find him and pass his test, you can obtain precious secret skills.

The tall and thin middle-aged man searched for a while but found nothing. He could only record the incident with regret.

“Being able to roam freely outside the city means that one is at least at the peak of Violence, or even at a higher level.”

"If there really is such an old Taoist priest who can obtain the skills by passing the test, I would also be tempted."

"I don't know what the test is about."

Ning Yan daydreamed for a while and temporarily put the matter behind him.

He put away the blue volume and immediately prepared to go out.

In addition to the two training records, the more important gain this time is naturally the points.

Originally, he could only get 100 points for eliminating one evil cultivator, but he killed two in a row, and then teamed up with Su He and Tang Junwen to kill one. He then made some contributions when searching for the evil cultivator, so that his total score reached 250 points.

After the triple bonus announced by Dean Qiao, his score immediately soared to 750 points. Together with the 60 points he had previously traded with Tang Junwen, he now had 810 points, which was an unprecedented amount of money.

With so many points, let alone just the "Yan Yang Jin", he can even practice some other martial arts and miscellaneous skills.

For example, he was very interested in the "Wheel Power" practiced by Tang Junwen and Su He, or the "Vajra Indestructible Body" demonstrated by the silver medalist Feng Changping.

Maybe I can take this opportunity to exchange them all.

Ning Yan walked towards the Cangwu Building impatiently.
