Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 26 Cliff Mountain

Half an hour ago, Room 4, Tianzi.

Zhang Yuanshan and the other two arrived first. They gathered together and talked about what they had gained in the sect over the past six months.

“After entering the Equipment Refining Hall, I have been following my uncle and helping him.

I discovered that I had some talent in refining equipment, so my family increased their efforts in training me, and as a result, I was able to advance to the fifth level of Qi Refining within half a year.

Half a month ago, he was even able to forge a magical weapon blank on his own."

“Senior Brother Zhang has a promising future, which is really enviable.

My younger sister barely broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining a month ago, but she's still a long way off."

Chu He said in a muffled voice:
"Sister, please don't be so modest. I just broke through to the middle stage of Qi Refining yesterday. Doesn't that make me look really stupid?"

"Haha, everyone has a bright future," Zhang Yuanshan said calmly, changing the subject.

"A few months ago, Ji An came to Chitong Mountain to find us and said he wanted to borrow spirit stones.

At that time, I saw that he was only at the second level of Qi Refining, yet he was able to practice the Small Cloud Rain Technique to a small degree, and after his persuasion, I nodded and agreed. He borrowed two spirit stones from each of us.

"Ah, he also came to borrow spirit stones from you two?"

Zhao Mengyao was stunned.

"Also? Junior Sister was also borrowed for spirit stones?"

Zhao Mengyao nodded with a slightly embarrassed look on her face:
"I decided to provide him with spirit stones because I was grateful that he had mastered the Small Cloud and Rain Technique to a minor degree within a month with only the limited mana of the second level of Qi Refining."

She suddenly felt a little regretful and said:
"Now that I think about it, even a minor mastery of the Small Cloud and Rain Technique can only increase the output of the Spiritual Valley by about 10%."

The three of them discussed it and were shocked. Ji An actually had a debt of 16 spirit stones. This should be beyond the repayment limit of an early stage Qi Refining cultivator, right?!

Chu He clenched his fist and said angrily:

"I need to save my spirit stones to maintain my cultivation, but this guy is so good!"

Zhang Yuanshan thought for a moment and said:
"A spiritual farmer is truly useful if he has mastered one of the Small Cloud and Rain Technique, Thick Earth Technique, or Withering and Flourishing Technique to the Great Perfection level.

Ji An has a high level of understanding of water magic, but he doesn't know how long it will take for him to master the Small Cloud and Rain Technique.

He promised to return a batch of spirit stones to us in half a year. We'll see how he performs then.

But we can no longer lend him spirit stones. Today we have to teach him a lesson.

Also, we need to talk about using the secret beast taming technique to pay off debts."

The real test of magic talent is to leap from minor success to major success. There are two levels: entry level and mastery level. As long as you practice enough times, you can quickly reach the minor success level.

However, to quickly improve a minor spell to a major one, simply practicing more is not enough. Without sufficient understanding, it will inevitably take years to achieve it, or it may not be achieved at all.

A promising spiritual farmer is worth making friends with, but if you have to keep borrowing spiritual stones to make friends with him, it will not be worth it.

The other party's debt is really too heavy.

He had never realized before that he could actually practice by borrowing spirit stones.

Damn, it’s all because that guy is so good at talking. The contrast with how dull he was before the pulse was opened is too big.

Ji An took in the expressions of the few people, sat up straight, and said gently:
“Brother, what you said is absolutely right.

The sect has a three-year assessment process for new disciples. It would be impossible to repay the debt within a few years with only a minor level of cultivation magic."

"you know too?!"

Chu He restrained the strength in his hand and pounded the table. This is not what you said when you borrowed the spirit stone!

"It's impossible to rely on minor spells, but is it possible to rely on major spells?
I am a humble junior fellow apprentice, but I have mastered the Small Cloud and Rain Technique and the Thick Earth Technique a few days ago.

I planted two mu of spiritual grain and harvested 580 kilograms of yellow sprout rice the day before yesterday. This year, I don't have to pay rent or taxes to the sect. If I sell all the land, I can get 580 spiritual crystals."

Ji An bowed and spoke sincerely:
"Today's banquet is over. I invite you, brothers and sisters, to stay at my place for half a day and enjoy the bountiful harvest of wine and meat."

Zhang Yuanshan's eyes narrowed. In less than half a year, two mastered spells?!

There was also a look of horror in Zhao Mengyao's eyes. If this was true, she would have to re-evaluate the other party's magical potential!

Zhang Yuanshan said "hmm" and smiled:

"I am proud of my junior brother's achievement.

I'll bother you tonight, Junior Brother, and we'll have a drink and chat happily."

Knock? What the hell is that?

Disciples arrived one after another. Zhang Yuanshan took a quick look and saw that all 16 disciples of the same period had arrived. He ordered the restaurant to serve the dishes.

Drinking and drinking together, it's a great time.

When the wine was half drunk, Zhang Yuanshan gently put down his glass and sighed:
"What a shame. I don't know if I'll be able to come back here and drink with you all in half a year."

His voice was not loud, just loud enough for everyone to hear clearly.

Zhao Mengya was surprised:
"Brother, what do you mean by that? Did you receive a mission from the sect that requires you to go out?"

Sometimes, the sect would assign garrison tasks to disciples above the fourth level of Qi Refining, but those were for disciples with poor production capabilities, and disciples would not be assigned any tasks by the sect by default during the first three years after entering the sect.

At this time, the disciple had just entered the sect and was not proficient in magic, so his safety was not guaranteed.

Everyone asked, their tone filled with worry.

All new disciples will be sent out, and something big must be happening.

The sect is not without enemies. Not to mention the internal frictions among the human race, the demons in the deep mountains of the northwest often fight with the sect.

"I guess so, but it's a good thing," Zhang Yuanshan said with a smile:

"Yesterday, my uncle told me that the sect's chief cultivator had fought several battles with the Blue-Eyed Demonic Ape Clan of Mount Moya, and killed the Ape King.

Now the sect has occupied Moya Mountain, which is home to a top-grade first-class spiritual vein. They will send monks to garrison there as soon as they have set up a mountain protection formation.

Since my uncle was chosen, I took advantage of the opportunity and went with him.

I estimate that the news will be officially released in a few days. If you have any connections, you may try to make some use of it."

"Practicing in a first-grade, superior spiritual vein, Brother's cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds. Mengyao wishes Brother a speedy breakthrough to the late stage of Qi Refining."

"Congratulations, brother."

Everyone congratulated him, and Ji An was secretly envious. He wondered how much spiritual energy the stone turtle could absorb in a day if he could also enter the spiritual vein to practice.

But he was just thinking about it. Such a good thing could not possibly happen to a helpless man like him.

This incident also made him want to advance to the late stage of Qi Refining as soon as possible and find a good master, so that he could enjoy the shade under the shadow of a big tree.

The sect attaches great importance to the inheritance of master and disciple, and only cultivators at the middle stage of foundation building or above are qualified to accept disciples.

In order to encourage the master to teach his disciples attentively, the master can get contribution points after the disciples become his disciples.

If a disciple is at the seventh level of Qi Refining, the master can get 700 points every year. If the disciple's cultivation level increases by one level and reaches the eighth level of Qi Refining, the master can get 800 contribution points every year and an additional reward of 700 points.

Each foundation-building cultivator has only four places for non-foundation-building disciples. When a disciple advances to the foundation-building stage, the master can get more rewards.

There is another benefit of becoming a disciple, which is that you can enter the circle of foundation-building cultivators in advance, obtain more insider information, and suffer less loss in resource allocation.
