My group members have a promising future

Chapter 1 The Struggle of the Traveler
-------
In Xuan Country in the eastern part of Cangqing Continent, there is a fertile land called Wujiangyuan. Five great rivers rush through it like dragons converging into the sea, nourishing countless lives along the coast.

Late at night, when everyone is asleep, the lights of Jiangji Town on the bank of Qinglong River are as bright as sand, close to the side of the river.

This is a small town by the river with a population of over 80,000. It has convenient transportation and often holds large markets, hence the name.

A figure emitting blood like wolf smoke was riding on an armored beast on Binjiang Road in Jiangji Town. Red wriggling muscles were visible among the black scales. Three scarlet flesh tails that seemed to have been skinned were able to rotate freely, and at the end of each tail was a ferocious green one-eyed head that looked like a snake.

This ferocious beast was five meters tall, with a humanoid creature sitting on its back. Both it and the mount were wearing heavy black armor, and the armor clattered as they walked on the street.

In front of them is a quiet and peaceful town, but this quiet and peaceful town has been awakened at this moment, because the earth is shaking and lights are lighting up one after another.

Behind them, the ground cracked, as if it had been cut by a thousand-meter-long sword. Red and black evil spirits seeped out of the cracks, like a wound in the earth from which black and red pus and blood flowed. And that pus and blood was a surging monster.

……

Jingle Bell

Xu Zhuo grabbed the phone next to his pillow, turned off the alarm, and glanced at the screen with empty eyes.

A quarter past five
Today's weather: cloudy, 0-3℃

'It feels like I only slept for three minutes.'

Xu Zhuo yawned and wanted to take another nap.

However, as a senior high school student, he is not qualified to sleep in.

He opened an APP to check the data of the video he uploaded yesterday.

Snail, 1323 views
It's not bad. After all, I'm a newcomer. I have no support from seniors, no promotion from the company, and I haven't purchased any traffic services. It's good enough to have these plays in eight hours.

no way.

As a time traveler, his progress in practicing this world's Qigong is just as unsatisfactory as Abin's academic performance.

The main problem is lack of money.

Let him give up practicing?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!
It's hard to get a chance to master extraordinary powers. How could Xu Zhuo, who has lived an ordinary life, give up?

However, his family conditions in this life were ordinary, and his parents had already done their best to support his schooling and practice, so there was no way for him to go any further.

But with his current level of cultivation, he could not meet the admission standards of the eight local cultivation schools.

If you want to go further, you have to spend money.

Therefore, he could only think of a way to find a part-time job with "money prospects" to earn some money to supplement his cultivation.

It just so happens that time travelers like him can usually switch to the profession of "Cultural Porter". Of course, it can also be called "Art Sharing Officer".

In places where copyright protection is relatively good, this career is very promising.

After he had traveled through time and space for a few days and understood the situation clearly, he made a judgment:

According to his current situation, copying songs would be more convenient, so that he can quickly obtain funds to support his continued practice.

"It's a pity that it's already the end of April." Xu Zhuo thought with some regret.

April.

April is full of beauty in this world.

For him, it was a bit too late in terms of time.

His cultivation is not high enough. Even if he can make money as a cultural porter now, how long will it take him to make enough money?
At least, I won’t be able to catch up with this year’s college entrance examination.

The cultivation system in this world is called Qi.

Qi is the source of life and the root of all things.

The Qi of human cultivators is a combination of human vitality and soul power. It is because of this that it can flow within the human body and can be controlled by human thoughts.

The realm of cultivation in this world is divided into two major realms: 'internal energy' and 'external energy'.

There are nine levels of Inner Energy Realm. Only those who can cultivate to the third level, Qigong Realm, will be eligible to apply for the eight major cultivation schools during the college entrance examination.

The first stage, the Qi Sensing State, is to perceive the existence of Qi. One needs to use the power of the soul to sense the vital energy in the body and achieve "inner vision".

This level depends on talent. People with good talent will reach it in a shorter time.

Alternatively, you could spend money to buy a Qi Sensing Pill and easily enter this realm in a few days.

After all, the key point of this realm is 'perception'. If you can do it the first time, you will naturally become familiar with it in the future.

The second stage is the Qi-nourishing stage. After sensing the existence of the vital energy in the body, one can continuously nourish and strengthen the vital energy, and the vital energy can also feed back to the body, making the physique stronger. Xu Zhuo is currently in this stage.

The vast majority of monks of the same age are also at this stage, because the key to this stage is "nurturing".

It costs money to raise a pet.

An ordinary family like his can only eat some nutritious food.

On the other hand, wealthy students can take elixirs that nourish their vital energy. It won't take them long to complete the 'Qi-nourishing Realm' and achieve a state where their entire bodies are filled with Qi.

There is a huge gap between the lower and upper limits of the Qi-nourishing realm.

The lower limit is just a little stronger than ordinary people.

The upper limit is that one can tear tigers, leopards, rhinos and elephants apart with bare hands, and even use his flesh and blood to rival the low-level mechas of the mechanical race.

The third stage of Qigong is to have control over the vital energy. One can move the vital energy according to one's own will, so that it can reach various parts of the body when needed.

Yuan Qi is magical. Wherever it gathers in the human body, it can enhance the strength of that part of the body, improve the ability to resist attacks, eliminate fatigue, speed up the healing of injuries, etc. It has many wonderful uses.

Only when one reaches the third stage of internal Qi circulation and can freely control the circulation of internal Qi in the meridians, can one practice various advanced Qigong secrets.

This threshold is also the admission threshold for the eight major cultivation schools in Yuzhou.

Only if you reach this level before the college entrance examination will you be eligible to enroll in the eight major spiritual cultivation schools. Otherwise, you won’t even be able to move your vital energy, and you won’t be able to practice even if you are given the Qigong secrets.

Xu Zhuo is now in the second stage of internal Qi cultivation. He is not even halfway through this journey. The vital energy in his body is still dormant between his muscles, tendons and bones, and hidden in his blood and flesh. He is far from reaching the point where his internal Qi is full and has plenty to move around.

He also needs more exercise and nutrition to develop more energy.

He started cultivating this realm in his first year of high school, and it has not yet been completed.

There is no other way. The Qi Cultivation Realm depends purely on resources.

If there were some pills that could replenish one's vital energy, one could reach this level in a month or two.

No?

Then just take your time.

A cultivator at the peak of the Qi-Nourishing Stage has his body filled with vital energy. With every move he makes, his body is passively blessed by the vital energy. He can lift a weight of 20,000 kilograms with one hand with his physical strength alone.

With such power, hunting rhinos, elephants and other wild animals with bare hands is naturally not a problem.

Therefore, whether one can lift 20,000 kilograms with one hand is also a simple way to measure whether the Qi Cultivation State is complete.

But I don’t know how many people have been stumped by this level.

As a time traveler, Xu Zhuo has read a lot of fantasy novels about cultivation, and he knows one thing:
Practice, practice, but without resources, how can you move forward?

So, after getting familiar with the environment, he started to engage in the very promising career of a cultural porter. He first borrowed a song he liked very much from Milk Tea Lun and posted it online to test the waters.

However, he only awakened his past life memories in April and started this plan. Even if he could get some money from the traffic, it would be May and it might not be much.

He doesn't have much pocket money, and the fee for registering the copyright of a song is two hundred yuan each time. He doesn't even have extra money to register the copyright of a few more songs, otherwise he would not release only one song.

Among the resources for cultivation, those qi-nourishing pills usually cost tens of thousands of yuan each, and need to be taken continuously, which is simply unaffordable for ordinary families.

Therefore, Xu Zhuo felt that even if he mastered the cultural resources of a world and would definitely become famous, it would be too late for him to make a comeback before the college entrance examination.

According to his current development, if he works hard to copy songs and earn money to buy medicine, he should be able to successfully reach the third level of internal energy after graduating from high school.

But that would mean staying in high school for an extra year.

People on the Internet say that the sooner you start practicing Qigong, the better.

In addition, recent news reports have shown that disasters are becoming more frequent in various places, and the increasing number of casualties has made Xu Zhuo feel a sense of urgency.

He needs strength.

He needs to feel safe.

The fourth stage of internal energy, the Tongmai realm, can open the meridian gates, allowing the vital energy to pass through the meridians and blast out from the meridian gates. You can then perform the Hundred-Step Divine Fist and hurt people from a distance.

The seventh stage of internal energy, the realm of body refining, the cultivator's vital energy can penetrate the body and change into a thousand forms. The vital energy can be transformed into swords, spears, swords and halberds, and can also be transformed into wings for free flight.

That's flying!
In the future, he must try the feeling of soaring into the sky with his own strength!
"Nothing can stop my yearning for cultivation~"

He hummed a song and went to the bathroom to wash up.
