Episode 67: Beginner Mana

Thank you for the dream, the children's shoes are rewarded, the first helmsman of this book, plus more congratulations!

That night, Yizhuang, Jiang Chen sat on the bed in his room, in front of him, there was the book of Shangqing Dao that Uncle Jiu passed on to him, under the control of his internal force, the pages of the book were turning by themselves, allowing him to read it quietly.

Well, although he has some other expectations, this so-called Shangqing Dao recipe has neither a golden pill nor any divine ascension, it is indeed just a basic exercise that teaches people to meditate quietly and absorb the aura of heaven and earth and transform it into their own mana.

With mana, you can cast the Dao Method, just like the internal force and moves, the same is true of the principle of the Dao Method, which is why the blood of the Ninth Uncle and the Four-Eyed Dao Master can subdue the walking corpses, because, when they sealed it, they had already melted their own mana into the blood.

After reading it several times, Jiang Chen imprinted every word and symbol in the book in his heart, trying to memorize it backwards, and then began to practice for the first time.

There is usually a saying that the foundation is built in 100 days, which means that within the first 100 and 8 days of cultivation, the cultivator does everything possible to accumulate mana, condense a spiritual root, and lay the foundation for cultivation!

Generally, the spiritual root must have at least nine wisps of mana as the foundation to condense, the higher it goes, there are twelve earthly branches, twenty-four heavens, thirty-six Tiangang, seventy-two earthly demons, one hundred and eight small Zhou Tian, three hundred and sixty-five Zhou Tian, etc., the more mana accumulates, the better the condensed spiritual root.

The spiritual root, also known as the immortal root, is related to the size of the cultivator's future achievements, it is extraordinary, it can be said to be extremely important, because every cultivator will pay special attention to the cultivation of the hundredth day, and complete the foundation of the hundred days as best as possible, Jiang Chen, naturally, is no exception.

Because of his experience in cultivating internal strength, the first step is to settle down, and for him, there is no difficulty at all. The next thing is to comprehend the aura of heaven and earth, which is not difficult for Jiang Chen, who has reached the realm of an innate grandmaster in martial arts, and even the link of ingesting the aura of heaven and earth into the body is very simple, but refining the aura into the body into mana is a realm that he has never been exposed to before.

Fortunately, in the first two reincarnation worlds, although he had no chance to contact the Immortal Dao, he also cultivated Gu Wu and Neijia Quan to the innate realm, whether it was refining the aura of heaven and earth into true qi, or turning it into flesh and blood to enhance the power, it was all experience, so after some hard work, he finally succeeded in condensing his first wisp of mana!

For ordinary cultivators, even if they are talented, after all, they have no foundation, and it is already very remarkable to be able to condense a wisp of mana when cultivating the Dao technique for the first time. However, for Jiang Chen, this was just the beginning, after all, as a martial arts master, his foundation was ten times better than that of ordinary cultivators.

Everything was difficult at the beginning, with the condensation of the first wisp of mana, soon, Jiang Chen's cultivation was on the right track, and with his operation of the Dao technique, the aura between heaven and earth was pulled and gathered by him, and the 480 million pores from the whole body were continuously poured into his body, and he condensed it into his own mana.

In one night, Jiang Chen had condensed thirty-six wisps of mana, and if he wanted to, he could even directly smelt it into his own spiritual root, and then he could start cultivating the Dao Method. But is he a short-sighted person? Naturally, he will not ignore the importance of building a foundation for the sake of a momentary speed.

Early the next morning, Jiang Chen got up early for morning exercise as usual, and the same was true for Uncle Jiu and Wen Cai, but it was Qiusheng, because the lord was at his aunt's house in the town, so he rarely came over so early.

After all, Uncle Nine had been cultivating for many years, and he could knock out the changes in Jiang Chen's body at a glance, and he couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Senior brother, have you already condensed your mana?"

In this regard, Jiang Chen naturally had nothing to hide, and responded truthfully at the moment: "Yes, I didn't sleep all night last night, I worked hard to cultivate, and I have successfully condensed my mana. ”

"Wow, Uncle Xiaoshi, you are really powerful, you have only practiced mana in one night!" Hearing this, Wen Caidang couldn't help but exclaim: "I practiced for seven days before I could condense the first wisp of mana." ”

"I'm embarrassed to say that I'm stupid!" Uncle Nine snorted coldly, glared at him, and then turned to Jiang Chen and Yan Yuese and said: "You are worthy of being a master of martial arts, and your foundation is thick, but junior brother, you must not be slack, building a foundation in a hundred days is very important, and you must condense as much mana as possible to be able to cast the best foundation." ”

Facing Uncle Jiu's kind suggestion, Jiang Chen immediately responded respectfully: "Little brother, remember." ”

In the next period of time, Jiang Chen worked hard to cultivate, perhaps, as Uncle Jiu said, as a martial arts master, he has a very thick foundation, almost every time he cultivates, he can condense thirty or fifty wisps of mana, and over a period of time, the mana he has accumulated has been as many as two hundred and forty wisps.

You must know that even his master, the Ninth Uncle, who built the foundation in a hundred days, only condensed seventy-two wisps of mana in total and smelted the immortal root, Rao is like this, among the disciples of the Maoshan Sect in the past hundred years, he can be regarded as highly qualified!

But Jiang Chen still continued to cultivate regardless of it, anyway, he had already made up his mind in his heart, and he had to wait for a hundred days of cultivation before he could condense the immortal root.

It's just that although he thought well, after more than ten days, he had to dispel this idea, because, after he condensed three hundred and sixty-five wisps of mana, no matter how he cultivated, he could no longer condense the three hundred and sixty-six wisps of mana, and he had no choice but to ask Uncle Nine for advice.

When Uncle Nine heard that he had condensed three hundred and sixty-five wisps of mana, the whole person couldn't help but widen his eyes, and he was stunned for a while, before he replied with a wry smile: "Senior brother, I forgot to tell you, and it is not recorded in the book, building a foundation in a hundred days, and condensing immortal roots with three hundred and sixty-five wisps of mana, is already the limit of my Maoshan faction's exercises, unless you can get more profound and profound exercises than my Maoshan faction, otherwise, no matter how you cultivate, I am afraid it will be difficult to condense three hundred and sixty-six wisps of mana." ”

"I see. When Jiang Chen heard this, he couldn't help frowning: "Then, Senior Brother, can I directly condense the immortal root and cultivate the Dao Law now?"

"This" Uncle Nine hesitated for a moment, but said: "It's better to wait a few more days, your cultivation speed is too fast, although the foundation is deep, but it's better to be careful, these days, you will polish and refine the mana accumulated in your body, and try to make the mana pure, which is also good for condensing the immortal root." ”

"Yes, brother. Jiang Chen didn't hesitate to do this, after all, it was from the era of information explosion, his vision was broad, not inferior to anyone, he naturally understood what Uncle Nine meant, since he couldn't increase the quantity of mana, then improve the quality of mana, and he could also improve the grade of the immortal root.

"Senior brother, although you are the latest to start and the time is not long, I have to admit that you are not much stronger than my two unsuccessful apprentices. Uncle Nine looked at Jiang Chen, more and more satisfied, reached out at the moment, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Go back and rest, get up early tomorrow, someone will ask me to discuss things, and when the time comes, you will follow, and I will take you to taste foreign tea." ”

When Jiang Chen heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, but he remembered the scene when the two masters and apprentices of the ninth uncle and Wencai were in the café in the reincarnation plot, but he said: "Senior brother, this is not good, after all, it is you who are invited." ”

Uncle Nine said: "What is this, you are my junior brother, and you have seen the world, so you can just give me a staff officer." Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "I almost forgot, junior brother, you lived in Hong Kong before, you must have drunk foreign tea, right?"

Jiang Chen replied with a smile: "Of course. ”

"Okay, good!" Hearing this, Uncle Nine couldn't help but be overjoyed, and then quickly rubbed his hands and asked, "Then can you teach me, what is the point of drinking foreign tea?"

"Absolutely. Jiang Chen answered, and then roughly told him about the importance of drinking coffee, and then Uncle Nine frowned, and with Jiang Chen's ear, he could still hear his muttering from a distance:

"I really didn't expect that there would be so much attention to foreign tea, it seems that I must bring my junior brother tomorrow, well, there is also a literary talent, in case there is a mess, you can let him top the tank"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but be speechless for a while, and howled sadly in his heart: Senior brother, are you really good like this?
