Industrial Cultivation

Chapter 11: Refining Qi

Views:

Taking into consideration that it was Zhu Changyang's first time to fly a sword, Jun Shu kept the sword at a gentle speed.

As they fly out of the Immortal Land and unlock more maps, the vaster and more magnificent world of the Misty Continent gradually emerges.

The long mountains and distant waters, the wilderness and wastelands, are all creations of nature, and every one of them is astonishing.

Zhu Changyang only felt his heart pounding, and a shout was not enough to express the passion at the moment.

After pondering for a moment, he decided to take advantage of the explanation for free, so he turned around and said, "Xiaojun, do you know all these places? Can you introduce them to me?"

There was limited space on the sword, and the two men were very close. Zhu Changyang was slightly shorter, and when he tilted his head, the end of his hair brushed across Jun Shu's chin.

Jun suddenly felt an itch on his lips and was slightly stunned, but he immediately came back to his senses: "...Xiaojun?"

Wasn't it Xiaoci before? Although I don't know what that means.

"Ah, you don't like it?" Zhu Changyang followed suit, "Then the Great Lord? Xiao Shu? It can't be the Grand Lord, right?"

Anyway, there is no proper name for it.

Jun Shu felt a little overwhelmed, so he gave up and said, "No, whatever you want."

He calmed himself down, turned his attention to the ground beneath his feet, and pointed, "That's Daishan Mountain."

"That's the Snow Spray River."

"That's Changping Realm."

Zhu Changyang: “…”

What a poor introduction. Brother, with your level of explanation, you will be unemployed if you work as a tour guide.

Fortunately, Zhu Changyang had already taught himself some common sense about the Piaomiao Continent before, so he was able to match them one by one now.

As far as the eye can see, the endless dark green mountains are shrouded in a rolling sea of clouds, among which the pavilions and towers of the weapon refining sect Yong Zhoutian can be vaguely seen. With their emerald tiles and golden buildings, they look like a fairy palace in the clouds.

On the top of the dark mountain hidden behind the clouds, the snow that has accumulated for thousands of years continues to melt, and the snow water rushes down, stirring up thousands of hectares of white waves, like a blizzard.

The Pengxue River rushed forward, splitting a crack in the earth. The crack was deep and wide, extending all the way to the swamp at the other end, dividing the continent into two halves.

On one side is the land of no dust, and on the other side is the land of everlasting peace.

Changping Realm is the largest mortal city among the Nine Realms and Eighteen Continents. From afar, you can see that its vast territory, convenient transportation, and various types of houses are scattered across the city, which cannot be summarized in a few words.

There is an undiscovered area in the distance that has not yet been developed...

The live camera followed Zhu Changyang's gaze and presented everything he saw and heard to the audience.

Before everyone had recovered from the mental pollution of the "scooter", they were immediately shocked by the beauty and wonder of the world of [Piaomiao Continent].

[It’s so beautiful! It’s so beautiful! I’ve never seen such a beautiful plane before! ]

[Oh my god, this is so realistic, is this really a virtual world?! Oh no, is this the real world? ... It doesn’t seem right either! Anyway, is this really the world that my eyes can see? ? ?]

[Ah! Within five minutes, I want to see the map of the entire Piaomiao Continent. Guan San, I advise you to take care of yourself! Don't force me to kneel down and beg you!]

[I’m not trying to be harsh, but the Piaomiao Continent is really better than the cultivation planes developed by other companies…]

[When will Pujiang fix the bug? Is it possible to open it to ordinary people? I am willing to spend money! ]

[I used to think that Changyang was unlucky to be sent there by mistake, but after seeing these scenes, I suddenly felt that it wasn’t such a big loss… ]

After the advent of plane technology, major technology companies have launched their own virtual planes. These planes are all highly realistic and beautiful, bringing great visual enjoyment to the audience.

Now, [Piaomiao Continent] has refreshed everyone’s cognition again.

Because plane development requires huge resources, in order to control costs, major companies cannot make their plane maps too large.

Before this, the most vast virtual planes were the Dotted Realm of Cultivation [Ascending to the Clouds] and Pujiang’s [The Light of Humanity].

The design drawings released by the former showed that the area of the entire plane was nearly 600,000 square kilometers, while the latter reached a staggering 800,000.

But the area of Piaomiao Continent is far beyond everyone's expectations.

There are nine regions and eighteen continents in total on the mainland, and the area that Zhu Changyang was flying over on his sword was only one of the regions.

After crossing Changping Territory, they will go to Cangbo City, which is another land.

One can imagine how spectacular it will be when the entire continent is unlocked.

In addition to the area, the scenery of [Piaomiao Continent] is also a brand new experience.

The green mountains are like splashed ink, and the raging waves are like spraying snow. The fairy mist is ethereal, and the world is endless.

Everything is clearly within everyone's imagination, and everything is also beyond everyone's imagination.

It seems as if this is a completely real world parallel to time and space.

So, more than half a month after Zhu Changyang traveled through time, the term "Piaomiao Continent" became a hot search on Weibo for the first time.

Netizens were overwhelmed by the beautiful scenery captured on screen and flocked to the live broadcast room to experience it in person.

Then, without any psychological preparation, he was caught off guard by the aerial scooter and was shocked, leaving a patch of green grass.

All in all, it was a very complex psychological experience.

.

Due to speed limitations, Zhu Changyang and Jun Shu were unable to fly too far on the first day.

At night, the two found an inn on the post road and rested for a while.

After dinner, Zhu Changyang returned to his room, then entered the workshop and called up the live broadcast panel to check.

When I saw this, I was immediately surprised.

The panel displays two messages:

[Popularity value: 10987070, do you want to exchange it for nutrient solution? [Yes][No]]

[Nutrient solution: 109990, do you want to withdraw cash? [Yes] [No]]

The popularity of his live broadcast room has been low for several days, and the number of viewers once dropped to only double digits.

What happened today, why did it suddenly break out

The barrage is not available yet, and Zhu Changyang has no idea what is going on. He can only sort out today's schedule. Some vague ideas flash through his mind, but he cannot be sure for the time being.

No matter what, now that he has gained popularity, he can continue his practice.

Zhu Changyang counted the digits on the panel again in a daze, and confirmed that it was indeed tens of millions, and tears suddenly filled his eyes.

You know, even when he was at his most popular, his popularity never reached over 10 million!

He clicked [Yes] on both options without hesitation. Just like last time, the numbers on the panel decreased rapidly and turned into a strange aura that flowed into his mind and spread throughout his body.

The exchange ratio of popularity points to nutrient solution is 100:1. After the exchange, he has a total of more than 200,000 nutrient solutions, which is ten times the last time.

The surging air flow rushes through the body, cleansing the meridians and internal organs.

Zhu Changyang quickly sat down cross-legged, and according to the methods in the textbook, he held his breath and concentrated his mind, guiding the breath to circulate in his body and finally gather at his spiritual center.

The mind gradually becomes clear, and consciousness expands and extends outward.

Zhu Changyang was surprised to find that he could sense the situation around him without opening his eyes or leaving the room.

The breeze outside the window, the swaying shadows of the trees, the waiters walking by with lanterns, everything seems to be right in front of me.

The scene in the next room was also clearly presented, but there was no breath in it. Jun Shu was not there

Unfortunately, the range that consciousness can explore is still relatively limited, probably only a few meters in radius. But for Zhu Changyang, it is undoubtedly stepping into a whole new world.

After an unknown amount of time, the airflow was finally completely absorbed and filled the spiritual platform.

Zhu Changyang opened his eyes. Now his cultivation had reached the middle stage of Qi Refining and was close to perfection.

He reviewed the method of using the spiritual fire in the textbook again, with his right palm facing up, reciting the formula silently in his mind.

But he saw a flash of light in front of his eyes, and the magic method moved at will, and a cluster of light golden and reddish flames appeared out of thin air in the palm of his hand.

Success!!

Zhu Changyang was ecstatic!

Although the flame was small, it was successful. It was a spiritual fire that was truly driven by thoughts and ignited by magic power!

What does this mean? It means he can still be successful!

.

Early the next morning, Zhu Changyang walked out of the room feeling refreshed.

Almost at the same time, the door of the next room opened and Jun walked out quickly.

The two looked at each other and said at the same time: "You last night..."

Jun Shu: "What?"

Jun Shu paused for a moment and shook his head: "Nothing, let's get ready to go."

After breakfast, Zhu Changyang took out the handlebars again and installed the sword, then Jun Shu made a hand gesture and flew off with the sword.

The second time he flew the sword, Zhu Changyang was much more skilled. In addition to the experience of the first day, he felt that his perception of flying sword magic had also improved significantly, which was obviously brought about by his improved cultivation.

If this continues, maybe in a few days he won't need to wear a seat belt anymore.

Zhu Changyang thought happily, and became bolder. He gestured forward: "Xiaojun, let's speed up!"

Jun Shu lowered his eyes to look at him, chuckled, and made a gesture to activate the sword. Immediately, the sword flew away as if the accelerator had been stepped on.

In this way, the two of them traveled during the day and rested at night.

Zhu Changyang also took advantage of the rest time to practice various basic spells.

Cangbo City and Buchen Land are located at the two ends of the continent and are far apart.

The two were not familiar with the route, and the map was not as good as the satellite positioning system. Sometimes it took them a long time to find the way, and they had to stop someone to ask for directions, not to mention that they could fly in the wrong direction if they were not careful.

After flying for nearly seven days with many bumps and stops, the two finally arrived near Cangbo City.

Why were they so sure that they were near Cangbo City? Because there were obviously more monks flying around with swords, and they were all heading in the same direction, and it was obvious that they were going to join in the fun.

The further we went, the more people there were. At one point, there were even people flying all over the place. The scene was comparable to the collective deployment of small aircraft in science fiction movies.

It was the first time that Zhu Changyang saw such a spectacle in real life, and he couldn't help but watch it with great interest.

As he was flying, he always felt that something was wrong. He pondered for a while and asked Jun Shu: "Xiaojun, is it my illusion? Why do our swords seem to be flying to the side?"

Jun Shu glanced at his feet and said casually: "Oh, because there are fewer people over there."

Zhu Changyang: "That's not necessary. I'm very stable on the sword now. I won't get hit even if I fly with the crowd."

Jun Shu remained calm and said, "It's my sword that's afraid of being hit."

Zhu Changyang was surprised: "Hey, can swords also have emotions?"

Jun Shu said briefly: "Some swords do."

It is said that all things have spirits, and the same is true for swords. It just requires a specific opportunity, but this is not something that can be told to outsiders.

Zhu Changyang only half understood, but out of politeness, he still praised: "Great, it seems that you are quite cautious with your sword."

Jun Shu: “… Ahem.”

It was really hard to explain to him, but in fact his sword felt so ashamed.

Looking at the entire Piaomiao Continent, which other sword has such a front? Of course, I have to avoid other swords.

Not only the sword, but the monks around also frequently looked towards them, looking at the iron frame held by Zhu Changyang, their eyes full of confusion.

Some were so absorbed in watching that they nearly bumped into the swords in front of them, luckily avoiding a mid-air accident.

Zhu Changyang naturally noticed everyone's gazes, but he remained very stable. As a host, he still had some psychological quality.

Instead, it was the others who couldn't hold back first.

"Brother, please stay." A young man, riding a sword in a snake-like shape, chased after him from behind.

Zhu Changyang turned his head and his eyes were suddenly flashed.

The person who came was not only charming in her movements, but also charming in her person.

Not only was he dressed in brocade and had a jade belt, but the sword at his feet was also very eye-catching. The silver blade was shiny enough to reflect one's reflection, and the hilt was a gorgeous gold color inlaid with precious gems.

Zhu Changyang didn't know much about swords, but he knew that everything in the world had a cost for packaging. Just by looking at the fancy shape, you could tell that this sword must not be cheap.

The two swords were placed side by side, making the rusty swords under their feet look even more shabby.

However, the young man did not pay any attention to the sword. He only stared at the iron frame in Zhu Changyang's hand and asked curiously, "Excuse me, what is this?"

As he spoke, he still maintained his flirtatious posture, swaying back and forth.

Zhu Changyang couldn't help but look at him a few times, but didn't say much. After all, there are many young racing kids who like drifting in modern times. As young people, everyone has some second-year thoughts.

"Oh, this is the front of the car." Zhu Changyang said. He was embarrassed to say that it was used to stabilize himself and not fall off, so he only introduced another function, "It is used to control the direction."

"Control direction?" The young man was even more surprised, with a hint of ecstasy in his surprise, "There is such a good thing?!"

Zhu Changyang thought his words were a little strange, and was about to say something else when Jun Shu suddenly said, "We're here."

Zhu Changyang turned around subconsciously and was immediately shocked by the scene before him.

A magnificent city suddenly came into view.

A tall city wall stands in front, serving as a defense. Inside the wall, there are buildings with flying eaves and shops everywhere. From afar, you can see crowds of tourists and the sight of carriages and horses.

This is Cangbo City where the Changchun Tower of the famous medical sect is located.

Cangbo City is a relatively special city among the Nine Realms and Eighteen Continents. Because Changchun Tower has close contacts with the mortal world, in addition to cultivators, there are also a large number of mortals living in the city, so it is extremely prosperous.

It is also for this reason that flying is prohibited over Cangbo City.

At this time, they were already close to the city defense formation of Cangbo City. Jun Shu reminded them, "Be careful, let's go down."

After saying that, he pressed down the tip of the sword and flew towards the ground.

The young man in fancy clothes was still studying the front of Zhu Changyang's car and forgot to look at the road for a moment. He came to his senses when he saw them going down, and then he found that he was about to rush to the city defense formation.

"Ah! Turn your head, turn your head quickly!" the young man screamed.

Unfortunately, his control over the sword seemed to be not very good. He made a flustered voice output and finally managed to make the sword turn its head, luckily it didn't hit the formation.

But it hit a big tree nearby.

With a "bang", both the man and the sword fell to the ground together. The scene was extremely tragic.

Zhu Changyang had just stopped his sword when he saw him get hit in the face. He immediately said: "…"

Ah, so the guy was not trying to be cool when he was moving in a snake-like manner in the sky just now. He just had unstable control of the sword, right? !

Zhu Changyang quickly jumped off his sword and ran over to help him: "Are you okay?"

The young man stood up with a dusty face, grabbed Zhu Changyang's hand, and said bluntly: "Brother, can you sell me your car head? I will give you fifty middle-grade spirit stones!"

Zhu Changyang was stunned: "Ah?"

There is actually someone who wants this broken car head and offers such a high price for it.

"Is it not enough?" The young man thought that he would not agree, so he immediately raised the price, "Then one hundred!"

Zhu Changyang: “Huh?”

And with automatic price increase

The young man gritted his teeth and said, "Two hundred, is that enough? It seems that you didn't use any precious materials for this thing..."

"Enough, enough." Zhu Changyang responded quickly. Enough is enough.

The front of the car was made of only a bit of picked-up iron, and the cost was less than a low-grade spirit stone.

It seems that as long as you find the pain points of the market, it is not that difficult to make money in the world of cultivation.

The audience in the live broadcast room was also numb.

[??? There is actually a market for this thing!]

[Am I abnormal, or is this world of cultivation abnormal?]

[I’m so afraid of seeing a sky full of scooters in this live broadcast room in the future…]

[Fuck! There’s a picture! ]

The author has something to say:

Changyang: Focus on market pain points, penetrate the minds of users, and achieve granularity through influence and methodology!
