Five Immortal Sects

Chapter 59: Xiaobai enters Taoism (I)

At this time, Li Yan had no idea how his little cleverness could deceive someone who had lived for hundreds of years.

At this moment, his seventh senior brother was teaching him basic knowledge. Lin Daqiao didn't know whether he had no suitable person to talk to in the past few years or not. He was very responsible and he conscientiously carried out the tasks assigned to him by Li Wuyi.

He wanted to tell everyone he knew about the common things in the world of immortal cultivation. This approach also allowed Li Yan to learn a lot of unknown things.

First, he told Li Yan about the level division in the world of immortal cultivation, spiritual root attributes, divine consciousness, these basic things that Li Yan already knew. Li Yan couldn't act as if he already knew them, otherwise what he said before would be exposed.

However, after listening carefully, he gained a new understanding and learned a lot of new details.

Lin Daqiao explained everything one by one, from the division of realms to the practice of fasting and so on, which made Li Yan fascinated.

For example: After the level division, there are differences in the respectful titles between cultivators. This is not based on the mortal world where whoever is older is the elder.

For cultivators, everything is divided only by strength, and the one who is one major realm higher is the elder. When an eighty-year-old Qi Condensation Stage disciple meets a twenty-year-old Foundation Establishment Stage youth, he must respectfully call him "Senior".

If two people belong to the same sect, they have to call each other "Uncle Master" or "Uncle Master", otherwise the other person may kill you with just a wave of his hand. The strict hierarchy is even more cruel than that of mortal dynasties.

When meeting people of the same generation, you cannot use your spiritual sense to randomly scan them, as that is extremely impolite. If you meet someone with a bad temper, it is common to attack them immediately;

If you meet a senior, you can't even look at him. Unless you have a strong backing, or this senior happens to be kind-hearted, otherwise you are basically doomed.

In the world of immortal cultivation, if one reaches two higher realms, one has to call him “Ancestor”, and if one reaches three higher realms, one has to be called “Grand Ancestor”.

As for the four realms, according to Lin Daqiao, there are currently no cultivators in the God Transformation stage in the mortal world. It is said that after reaching the late Nascent Soul stage, if one wants to make further progress, the rules of the world and the concentration of spiritual energy in the mortal world cannot support it anymore, so one must ascend to the Immortal Spirit World.

The Wuliang Sect currently has only five Nascent Soul Grand Elders. I heard that two of them are old monsters in the late Nascent Soul stage. Why haven't these two ascended to the fairyland? With Lin Daqiao's low level of cultivation, he is not qualified to know these secrets of the sect.

After hearing this, Li Yan realized how rash his actions were in the main hall today. After entering, he just looked at everyone at will. Even if he was killed, he probably still didn't know it.

The levels in the world of cultivating immortals are also reflected in the matter of becoming a disciple. Generally, a disciple will only accept people who are one level lower than him, unless you are a person with excellent qualifications and are favored by the elders, then they will accept you into the sect across several levels.

But at most, it would be good enough for you to be a registered disciple like Lin Daqiao and Li Yan. Until one day you have cultivated to a higher level, then you will be officially accepted as a disciple.

Therefore, generally speaking, the skills are taught by senior brothers who entered the martial arts world earlier than them, or by masters who are at a higher level. It is very rare for skills to be taught across levels.

Li Yan also understood why Senior Brother Lin from the Deacon Hall looked surprised when he heard Li Wuyi call him "Junior Brother". He also knew that this fat master was very caring towards him. Not only did he arrange for Li Wuyi to teach him, but he also told him that he could come to him directly if he had any problems.

But the more this happened, the more uneasy Li Yan felt. He didn't know why the master he was worshipping now cared about him so much, which made him think of everything in the Military Advisor's Mansion.

But after Li Yan experienced life and death, he was able to control many things very well, and his face did not show any strange expression despite what he was thinking.

Lin Daqiao did not notice Li Yan's uneasiness and continued to tell Li Yan the story in a very eloquent manner, which forced Li Yan to temporarily put aside his wild thoughts.

Next, let’s talk about spirit stones. The three stones in Li Yan’s storage bag now are spirit stones.

Spirit stone is a kind of mineral born between heaven and earth. It is a component of an entire spiritual vein. The spirit stone contains spiritual energy of different attributes required by cultivators for their practice.

Generally speaking, a spiritual stone has only one attribute. Only very few special spiritual stones may have spiritual energy of different attributes coexisting in different areas.

Spiritual veins are divided into living spiritual veins and dead spiritual veins!

The living spiritual vein was just like what Li Yan had felt in the Wuliang Sect. It was a kind of spiritual energy that traveled between heaven and earth on its own. It was emitted by the huge spiritual vein buried deep underground.

The spiritual vein continuously produces spiritual energy due to the circulation of the five elements. As the sun and the moon continue to grow, the spiritual energy in the spiritual vein will become thicker and thicker, and finally gather in the air.

Similarly, spiritual veins also have attributes. For example, at the foot of the Four Symbols Peak there is a huge active spiritual vein with earth spiritual energy, which allows people who practice earth-attributed exercises to practice faster. The Xiaozhu Peak has an active spiritual vein with water spiritual energy.

The undead soul veins have changed due to changes in the rules of heaven and earth, making it impossible for the original living soul vein to continue to generate new spiritual energy. As time goes by, the spiritual energy in these soul veins slowly settles and stabilizes in the vein stone.

And these vein stones are spirit stones. Of course, living spirit veins are also made up of spirit stones. It’s just that the spiritual energy in those spirit stones is abnormally active and difficult to absorb and control.

Spirit stones are divided into four grades according to the different concentrations and purity of spiritual energy inside them: low grade, medium grade, high grade and top grade.

As long as the cultivator holds the spirit stone in his hand, he can practice in a place without spiritual energy, and he can also quickly restore the spiritual power in his body during a battle.

Of course, spirit stones have many other functions, such as driving magic arrays, spiritual tools, magic tools, using puppets, refining tools, etc. all require spirit stones.

Therefore, it is a must-have for immortal cultivators. Firstly, it can be used for cultivation, refining equipment, and making pills; secondly, it is the common exchange currency in the immortal world. The yellow and white things in the mortal world are of no use at all in the immortal world.

Spiritual veins are also divided into low-level spiritual veins, intermediate-level spiritual veins and high-level spiritual veins due to the different quality of the spiritual energy they contain.

The spiritual stones mined from the same spiritual vein are generally of similar quality, but it is not ruled out that very high-quality spiritual stones may appear in the core of the spiritual vein.

Generally speaking, active spiritual veins will not be mined, and no one would kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Lin Daqiao said that the best spiritual stones he had ever seen were the several middle-grade spiritual stones in the hands of several senior brothers, each of which was hidden like a rare treasure.

High-quality spirit stones are probably only possessed by cultivators like Master who have reached the Golden Core stage or above. As for top-quality spirit stones, they have only been heard of in legends, and it is estimated that the entire sect may not even have a few.

Speaking of using spirit stones to drive spiritual tools and magical tools, Lin Daqiao picked up the storage bag on the table and slapped it. A ray of light flashed, and a small sword about an inch in size and a shuttle-shaped boat-like object appeared in the air.

A gleam of light flashed in Li Yan's eyes. This was the third time he saw someone using a storage bag, but he was still curious. He didn't know what was in this small bag. He had to find out later.

"Junior brother, look, these two are spiritual weapons, both made by weapon refiners."

The Laojun Peak of the Wuliang Sect not only refines medicinal pills, but also has a group of weapon refiners and talisman refiners. These are the types of cultivators that every second-rate and above sect has to a greater or lesser extent. The four major sects even have many of the top weapon refiners and talisman refiners on the continent.

The equipment used by immortal cultivators is not like the weapons used by ordinary people. It must be able to be infused with spiritual power of different attributes.

Like the so-called magic weapons among mortals, the cultivators' so-called magic weapons will usually break into pieces or even turn into dust as soon as their spiritual power is poured into them, not to mention being able to be used against the enemy.

Equipment refiners are a special type of immortal cultivators who can refine some natural treasures into equipment for immortal cultivators to use.

The instruments refined by the instrument refiners are divided into categories from low to high: spiritual instruments, spiritual treasures, magic instruments, magic treasures, immortal instruments, and immortal treasures. I heard that there are also holy instruments and holy treasures in the upper realm.

It is very rare for a Qi Condensation disciple in the mortal world to have a spiritual weapon. For example, many Qi Condensation disciples in third-rate sects cannot even have a spiritual weapon.

The spiritual treasure is higher in rank than the spiritual weapon and more powerful, but it is inferior to the magic weapon and is generally only used by advanced Qi Condensation disciples and early Foundation Establishment disciples.

Magical weapons are usually only possessed by powerful cultivators in the middle or late stages of foundation building, and their power is enough to shake the heavens and the earth;

Magical weapons can only be used by Jindan masters and Yuanying ancestors. It is said that they can turn rivers and seas upside down and reverse the sun and moon. As for immortal tools and immortal treasures, Lin Daqiao doesn't know whether the sect has them. They are all legendary immortal objects, and one of them can destroy an area.

Similarly, spiritual weapons and magic weapons can be divided into good and bad. Good spiritual weapons and magic weapons can enable cultivators to surpass their own combat power, while bad spiritual weapons may not even be as powerful as the spells cast by the cultivators themselves.

As he spoke, Lin Daqiao pointed at two objects in the air!

In an instant, the inch-long sword grew to about seven or eight feet in length, and the shuttle-shaped boat grew to more than thirty feet in length, and was about to occupy the entire living room.

He pointed in the air again, and the two objects quickly returned to their original shapes and fell on the table, which made Li Yan dizzy.

The power of this small sword is only average. If Li Yan wants to replace it with a better one in the future, he will have to spend spirit stones to buy it himself.

The shuttle-shaped boat is used for flying. It can be filled with spiritual power or spiritual stones. The flying speed is not too slow. It can travel nearly a thousand miles a day. As long as your spiritual power and spiritual stones can keep up, you can continue to fly.

However, some cultivators prefer to fly in the air after reaching the foundation-building stage, which is much faster than ordinary flying spiritual tools. They will only choose to use them when they have better flying magic tools or magic treasures.

Lin Daqiao said this, pointing at Li Yan's dark green robe and the boots on his feet.

"These are also spiritual weapons, but they are of a lower grade. The clothes can provide some simple protection, and the boots will increase your speed in combat. They are also good low-priced spiritual weapons.

In addition, the cuffs of clothes of each peak are marked with different logos. You can wear them if you want to, or wear whatever you like. However, most disciples are unwilling to wear other clothes.

There are many disciples in the five peaks of the sect, and it is usually difficult to identify which peak a disciple is from at once. This can be regarded as a quick identification between disciples from different peaks.

If there is an important matter in the sect, the disciples must wear this set of clothes so that they can be better coordinated and managed."

Upon hearing this, Li Yan noticed that the logo on his cuff was a small golden bamboo, which undoubtedly represented Xiaozhu Peak.

The seventh senior brother slapped the storage bag on the table again, and a light flashed. Three talismans appeared on the table, and then he began to talk again. This time he did not take the next step, because every time a talisman was used, the power inside would be reduced by one point.

The function of Fu Lu can be used to attack the enemy, or to protect oneself, and even to cause a light rain or snow during the ritual. Fu Lu is divided into spiritual talismans, magic talismans, treasure talismans, immortal talismans, and holy talismans.

Although cultivators can also use magic power to attack enemies or use magic power to form a protective shield to protect themselves, this requires continuous consumption of magic power.

However, in some aspects, they are not as fast and effective as Fu Lu, as they only consume the power of their own materials and do not involve anything else.

Fu Lu can be roughly divided into two categories:

Attack talismans, such as the "Fireball Talisman", "Wood Thorn Talisman", "Water Arrow Talisman", "Wind Blade Talisman", etc., can be activated by infusing a small amount of mana when used.

In other words, a Qi Condensation Stage may be able to emit a talisman with the power of a Foundation Establishment Stage or even a Golden Core Stage. Of course, this depends on the rank of the talisman.

This is something that some magic arts cannot do. To practice magic arts, you must reach a corresponding realm before you can practice magic arts of the corresponding level.

The most expensive talismans are the protective ones, which are life-saving items and are often out of stock and difficult to buy.

The three talismans that the Wuliang Sect gave to Li Yan and his friends when they joined the sect were all protective. This would be impossible in a second-rate sect. This is the confidence of a large sect.

According to Lin Daqiao, this Lihuo Iron Wall Talisman is a top-level spiritual talisman, which can withstand a full-strength attack from the early stage of foundation building. It is so precious. This is also the greatest care that the Wuliang Sect gives to its disciples while they are away. You must know that the refining materials of each talisman are composed of a variety of extremely precious materials for cultivating immortals.

After finishing the most basic information, Lin Daqiao took a break. Seeing Li Yan's serious and attentive look at memorizing the information, Lin Daqiao immediately felt a sense of accomplishment.
