Not long after, Xu Mu saw his Master Teacher meditating in the Red Flame Hall in the center of the cave, and hurriedly and respectfully stepped forward to greet him, "Master Teacher!
As he lowered his head, Xu Mu saw that Master Teacher also had five small cloth bags on his side, which seemed to be similar to the small bags he had seen around the waists of some of Wang Zhi's senior brothers earlier.
Liu Yan heard Xu Mu call out to himself and quickly opened his eyes and smiled, "You're here, this is the storage bag that several of your senior brothers used during their lifetime, storage bags are commonly used storage tools by cultivators, there is no owner recognition function, whoever gets it can use it, you can make sure to keep your own storage bag in the future."
"In addition, this storage bag is for you, inside it is a set of standardized supplies for internal disciples, there is also a disciple token, I have collected them all for you, you put away the storage bags of your various senior brothers and yours."
"All for me?" Xu Mu froze at his words and looked at the six storage bags in front of him in disbelief.Liu Yan obviously didn't care, after seeing Xu Mu do all these things, only then did he open his mouth and say, "All right, today the teacher will teach you Master Feng's 'Withered Wood Rejuvenation Technique', listen up, the so-called beginning of heaven and earth, wood gives birth to all things ..."
What Liu Yan wanted Xu Mu to achieve was not that one gongfu cultivation to the fourth level of qi cultivation was enough, but that all five basic gongfu should reach this level.
Of course, it was impossible to cultivate all five gongfu together, so Liu Yan's intention was to have Xu Mu cultivate all five gongfu in the order of the five elements.
Xu Mu's name had the word "wood" in it, so Liu Yan simply had him cultivate the "Withered Wood Flooding Spring Technique" of the wood attribute first, and then cultivate them in the order of fire, earth, gold, and water.
In this way, he could also avoid the problem of the five elements being mutually exclusive, so he could avoid conflicts between the techniques he cultivated at the same time, and at the same time he could use the five elements to increase his cultivation speed.
Thus, according to the five-year time frame, Xu Mu would have to successfully cultivate a gong method to the fourth level of qi cultivation every year.
In fact, such qualifications were a dime a dozen in the Terrace Spirit Mountain, and as long as one had a qualification of three Spirit Roots or more, he could basically achieve it.
Unfortunately, Xu Mu was carrying a Five Spirit Root and his cultivation speed was very slow, so Liu Yan said that there was only a 50/50 chance that Xu Mu would be able to complete it.
In a short while, Xu Mu finished listening to Liu Yan's teachings and felt like his head was in a daze, half unable to come back to his senses.
Liu Yan looked at him and smiled slightly, "All right, go back to your cave and cultivate, if there's anything you don't understand, you can come back and ask me again.Xu Mu was brought back to his senses by his master's words and stood up respectfully, "Yes, master!"
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Xu Mu suddenly turned around curiously and asked, "Senior, may I ask what attribute technique you are cultivating?"
"Me?"Liu Yan froze at his words and laughed, "I'm cultivating a fire attribute technique."
"I see."Xu Mu nodded, did not ask anything else, and respectfully retreated.
Halfway down the road, Xu Mu pondered over the words his master had just taught him while muttering, "No wonder master was able to advance to the JieDan stage, he actually understood all the wood attribute techniques so thoroughly."
After a short while, Xu Mu returned to his cave and placed a pile of jade bamboo slips on the table.
These things were called Jade Slips, and although they looked like rolled up bamboo slips, they could not be opened.
As long as the jade slips were stuck on one's forehead, the contents recorded in the slips would naturally appear in one's mind, and if one had cultivation in one's body, one could also use spiritual energy to change the contents.
At this moment, even though Xu Mu had no cultivation, he still had no problem reading the jade tablets.
When he placed one of the green-colored jade slips on his forehead, Xu Mu's mind instantly saw a long passage of text, which was none other than the Withered Tree Rejuvenation Technique.
According to the records in the jade slips, the Withered Tree Rejuvenation Technique was one of the most basic Five Elemental Techniques, and although its power was mediocre, its solid foundation was outstanding, and after cultivating it, one's mana was generally much deeper than that of a cultivator of the same rank.The rest of the various Five Elemental Techniques were actually of a similar nature, they did not contain any subtle magical abilities, only a deeper cultivation speed and mana.
The reason why Liu Yan only asked Xu Mu to cultivate them up to the fourth level of qi cultivation instead of a higher realm was also very simple: at the fourth level of qi cultivation, a cultivator could cultivate spirit harnessing techniques and thus use magic weapons.
One was a green leaf-shaped flying magic weapon that he'd seen before, which wasn't very useful except for the fact that flying was more energy efficient.
The other magic weapon was a small red sword, which was the legendary flying sword.
Both of these magic weapons were from Red Flame Peak, but they were the work of those ordinary outer disciples, not personally refined by Liu Yan.
That's right, Red Flame Peak also has outer disciples, those sheds Xu Mu saw before, is the outer disciples door forging magic weapon a place.Liu Yan will basically teach these people how to refine weapons once a month, as well as answer some questions about cultivation, and Xu Mu's treatment is completely incomparable, and this is exactly where the gap between the inner disciples and the outer disciples lies.The inner disciples who were taught hand in hand by the experts of the Foundation Establishment Stage, each and every one of them was the pride of heaven, or at least the existence of a double spiritual root or a special physique.
Of course, Xu Mu's five spiritual roots were special enough.
It was only after a long time that Xu Mu put down the jade slip, mentally recalling his master's teachings, slowly closing his eyes, and began to channel the spiritual energy of the surrounding Heaven and Earth.
The first step in cultivation was to absorb qi into the body, a step that no one could help anyone else with.
Only by relying on one's own efforts and sensing the changes in the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth, thus establishing a connection between oneself and Heaven and Earth, could one succeed in channeling qi into one's body.
Xu Mu didn't consider himself a genius, but he also didn't expect his qualifications to be so poor, and after closing his eyes and sensing for half a day according to the records of the Gongfu, he still didn't sense anything.
He vaguely felt that there seemed to be a layer of membrane surrounding his body, preventing his mind from expanding outward.
After trying for more than an hour, Xu Mu was still unable to break through this membrane, and instead, his mind was exhausted and he fell into a deep sleep.
The moment he fell asleep, the tightly closed eyes of Liu Yan, who was far away in the Red Flame Hall, suddenly opened, revealing a helpless, bitter smile.
After hesitating for a long time, he pulled out a green jade pendant from his chest and held it as he walked out of the hall, heading straight for Xu Mu's cave.
