The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Although Xiao Han also felt that her behavior was shameless, she still tried her best to persuade Jiang Yaohua.

"Don't be angry. Think about it carefully. Only after becoming a cultivator can I hope to earn more spirit stones and repay my debts as quickly as possible. Think of it as planting a spiritual herb that will take several years to pay back. Buying seeds, watering, and caring for it all require time and effort, don't they?"

Jiang Yaohua understood Xiao Han's point, but Xiao Han was still a human being, not her spiritual herb. Even if she was certain Xiao Han wouldn't dare to renege on her promise, what if this person slipped out of her control, wasting her time and energy?

As a struggling cultivator at the bottom of society, Jiang Yaohua has no extra sympathy, so when doing anything, he will weigh the pros and cons and maximize his benefits.

Therefore, Xiao Han used benefits to impress her, which made her feel moved but also a little annoyed and aggrieved. After all, all the benefits Xiao Han gave seemed to be empty promises.

But in the end, Jiang Yaohua agreed, on the condition that he paid 500 spirit stones for the Qi-into-body training fee.

Although the ultimate return on this investment is a bit far away, the time and energy she has invested in it are not that much after all.

However, I cannot start learning now because the spiritual energy in the mountains I passed through in the first few days was too thin, and it would be more difficult to successfully draw the energy into my body.

So the three of them continued on their journey using the lightening talisman as they did yesterday.

The price of the light body talisman is low, and one can be bought for ten spirit beads. Qi-cultivating monks usually prepare a hundred or so of them for themselves to use when traveling or escaping.

It is also because of this that Jiang Yaohua uses it in large quantities without any regrets.

Three days later, they finally reached the edge of the fairy mountain.

The so-called edge of the fairy mountain is actually a place where the concentration of spiritual energy is high enough to breed monsters.

However, the higher the concentration of spiritual energy, the higher the level of the monsters it breeds. Just like the large sects and families in the world of immortal cultivation, they all occupy blessed lands with high concentrations of spiritual energy. They also rely on the support of high-level cultivators.

Jiang Yaohua was just a young cultivator at the sixth level of Qi training. Naturally, her route avoided areas where third-level monsters might appear.

Therefore, when they camped out at night, Jiang Yaohua decided to start teaching Xiao Han how to draw Qi into his body. After all, the environment here was suitable for cultivation, and there was no need to worry about attacks from monsters.

In order to help Xiao Han draw the Qi into her body more quickly, she also took out the cushion that Jiang Wan used for meditation and gave it to her.

Although the cushions used by monks vary in value due to the different raw materials, their function is to help monks concentrate their minds and calm their spirits, and quickly enter a state of meditation.

Following Jiang Yaohua's instructions, Xiao Han sat cross-legged on the cushion and closed his eyes.

At this time, Jiang Yaohua held Xiao Han's left wrist and injected a weak spiritual power into her body, which flowed through the meridians. At the same time, he gently reminded her of the names and routes of these meridian points.

While Xiao Han was sensing the place where the spiritual power passed, he was trying hard to remember the names that Jiang Yaohua had mentioned.

After the spiritual power circulated for a cycle, Jiang Yaohua withdrew the spiritual power and told Xiao Han that this was the circulation path of the spiritual energy in the body after it was absorbed.

Spiritual energy can penetrate the body through every pore on the surface of the skin and then enter the meridians. To harness this spiritual energy for personal use, a cultivator must refine it through the circulation of the Qi. Spiritual energy that meets the needs of one's spiritual roots will remain in the Dantian, while the remaining spiritual energy will dissipate and then dissipate through the pores.

The more spiritual roots one has, the more types of spiritual energy a cultivator needs to refine. The more types of spiritual energy one refines, the slower one's cultivation speed will naturally be.

The purity of spiritual roots also affects the speed of refining and absorption. The higher the purity, the easier it is for the body to absorb refined spiritual energy. Therefore, when cultivators test their spirituality, they pay special attention to the number of spiritual roots they have and their purity.

Jiang Yaohua continued, "I'll tell you the cultivation formula. You must remember it carefully. Then, when you meditate, recite the formula silently until you can sense the spiritual energy entering your meridians. Then, refine and absorb it according to the path it just took.

After she finished speaking, she was about to teach the formula, but Xiao Han hurriedly said, "Wait, I'll write it down."

After saying that, she asked Jiang Yaohua to take out one of her packages.

Jiang Yaohua was unhappy and felt that she was troublesome, but she still took out Xiao Han's package from the storage bag.

Xiao Han hurriedly took out a stack of white paper, her homemade quill pen, and ground ink in a small porcelain bottle.

She placed the white paper on her lap, dipped it in ink, and then looked at Jiang Yaohua, "Fairy Jiang, you can speak now."

Generally speaking, this kind of cultivation formula is not complicated and is passed down orally from generation to generation. It is the first time that Jiang Yaohua has seen someone carefully record it with pen and paper like Xiao Han did.

After Jiang Yaohua finished speaking, Xiao Han realized that this formula was almost the same as a seven-character poem, and he immediately felt relieved.

Fortunately, this formula is not difficult.

After she finished recording, Jiang Yaohua's brows furrowed even more.

What kind of weird words are these?

"Read it to me."

She pointed at the ink blobs on the white paper and asked Xiao Han to read them.

In order to record quickly, Xiao Han wrote in modern simplified Chinese characters, and she read it aloud.

Seeing that she read everything correctly, Jiang Yaohua could no longer get angry.

At this time, Xiao Han said, "Fairy Jiang, could you please repeat the names of the meridian points you mentioned earlier so I can write them down and memorize them?"

Jiang Yaohua then explained it to her again in detail.

With the written record, when she used her spiritual power to guide Xiao Han again, Xiao Han finally had a direct impression of the path of the spiritual energy.
