Chapter 104 Heart Method
For practitioners, if they want to achieve something, talent, mentality, and resources all complement each other and are indispensable.
Since Lin Mu wanted his parents to embark on the path to immortality, he needed to start with these aspects.
There is no need to elaborate on talent. Both of them are mortals without spiritual roots. There is no room for improvement in this aspect.
In terms of mental methods, there are many choices.
The "Nine Directions Mental Method" that Lin Mu has been practicing is a very good basic mental method. Although it is not of high grade, it is better because of its mellow and gentle spiritual power, and there is no risk of going crazy. It's just that the "Nine Directions Mind Method" is only a second-grade mind method after all, and the cultivation effect is not very significant. It is not suitable for parents who have reached middle age.
In addition, Yulingzong's "Phantom Spirit Heart Technique", which is up to the fourth level, is also a good choice. However, "Phantom Spirit Method" is more suitable for Yuling Sect disciples. Many secret techniques and the like are closely related to spirit beasts. This choice is not the best.
Lin Mu's favorite is the "Five Elements Mental Method", which is very suitable for his parents.
Both of them have no spiritual roots, and the five elements of spiritual energy of heaven and earth are one. Before establishing the foundation, the two of them cannot perform any five element spells.
Only some neutral spells can be cast, such as "Wind Control", "Object Control", "Sound Transmission", "Giant Power", etc.
The Five Elements techniques such as "Geng Jin Jue", "Fire Ball Technique" and "Water Arrow Technique" were unable to be used because the two of them had no spiritual roots.
You can only wait until the foundation is established and you can separate the five elements of spiritual energy in your body on your own before you can rely on your own spiritual power to perform spells.
In this way, before the two of them build the foundation, their attack power will be extremely low, and they must not fight with others, otherwise they will definitely be killed.
Lin Mu felt firm in his heart and secretly made up his mind to never allow anyone to hurt his parents.
After making a choice, Lin Mu took out the jade slip with the "Five Elements Mind Technique" written on it from his storage bag, studied it, and taught the cultivation formula to his parents over and over again.
It took the two of them half the night to remember the formula of just a few hundred words.
According to the formula, Father Lin and Mother Lin tried to practice. After half a stick of incense, they felt a burst of heat rising in their abdomen.
Lin Mu was overjoyed and told the two of them that this was spiritual energy.
It's just that the heat is like a small insect, crawling in the meridians, and dissipates automatically before it can move forward.
This was the same as when Lin Mu first practiced. Lin Mu also encountered such a problem.
This is the first stage of cultivation, accepting Qi. The cultivator absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and circulates it in the meridians according to fixed routes.
It's just that the two people's qualifications are too poor, and they have absorbed too little spiritual energy from heaven and earth, far from being able to let the spiritual energy circulate freely in their bodies.
Lin Mu knew that it would take some time for the two of them to accumulate enough spiritual energy to maintain the most basic daily needs.
Lin Mu was not impatient about this. It took him three full days to accumulate enough spiritual energy to run for a week.
The qualifications of his parents were even worse than his own. Yanmancheng was also located in a remote area, and the aura of heaven and earth was far less rich than that of Lin Mu's sect. It was reasonable for him to be slower.
The moment Lin Mu decided to let his parents cultivate, he had already anticipated the current situation.
But this did not discourage Lin Mu, and he decided to start using his own resources.
Lin Mu greeted his parents and then brought them into the rotating moon space.
As soon as they landed on the ground, Father Lin and Mother Lin were deeply shocked again. In the rotating moon space, there were six acres of spiritual fields, filled with spiritual herbs and medicinal herbs. The fragrance of the medicinal herbs overflowed and the spiritual energy was rich.
The aura here was even more than twice as rich as the Xifeng where Lin Mu was. Although Lin's father and mother had weak senses of aura, they felt refreshed in the presence of this abundant aura.
Lin Mu brought his parents into the hut and said with a smile: "Father, mother, you will practice in this house. In less than ten days, you will be able to complete the rotation of the heavens."
Father Lin and Mother Lin suddenly left their small courtyard and came to this strange space. They felt a little panicked. Mother Lin even asked: "Where are we? Why did it go dark before we came here?" "
Lin Mu took out the jade pendant around his neck, handed it to his mother and said, "We are in this pendant of the rotating moon now. As long as my consciousness moves, I will still be in the room after I go out."
After saying that, Lin Mu appeared in the room again with his parents.
Looking at the familiar scene in the room, the two of them believed that what Lin Mu said was true. Mother Lin exclaimed: "This jade pendant is really magical. There are several acres of fields in it, and the space is larger than the cloth bag hanging on your waist." , it’s really surprising.”
Lin Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He pointed at the storage bag and corrected: "This is a storage bag, specially used to store things. It is much better than the cloth bag you mentioned."
Father Lin saw the problem: "This jade pendant is a family heirloom. How could there be such a scene inside?"
Lin Mu shook his head: "I don't know either. I discovered this secret accidentally at the beginning. I relied on this jade pendant to achieve some success in my cultivation."
Mother Lin boldly guessed: "Perhaps some of our ancestors once practiced cultivation, and this jade pendant has been passed down."
Lin Mu nodded and said: "Perhaps so, but it's just that it was too long ago and the ancestors have long been buried in their graves, so there is no way to verify it."
Father Lin said: "Not necessarily. Perhaps our ancestors have already become immortals. They left this jade pendant behind just to give hope to future generations. All this coincidence is also God's will."
Lin Mu smiled and said: "I don't care about the ins and outs of the jade pendant, as long as it is beneficial to cultivation."
After that, he took his parents into the revolving moon space again.
Father Lin nodded in agreement, turned to Mother Lin and said, "Let's practice in this room."
Lin Mu smiled and said: "You two can practice here with peace of mind. I will help you refine some spirit-gathering pills. When you can complete the cycle of the sky, you can take the spirit-gathering pills to practice."
Father Lin and Mother Lin were both overjoyed and began to meditate in the house to practice.
Lin Mu smiled and did not disturb the two of them. He went outside the house. Lin Mu took out the bronze furnace from the storage bag and began to prepare to help his parents refine the spirit-gathering pill.
Lin Mu spent eight days refining this high-quality bronze furnace.
Now making alchemy by yourself is no better than renting an alchemy room. The flame in the alchemy room is the fire of the earth's lungs coming from the ground. It is extremely easy. The flames needed to refine the elixir are all supported by the spiritual power in the cultivator's own body. It is necessary to refining the alchemy furnace once so that the alchemy furnace and the cultivator can have a slight mental connection to achieve the best effect.
Lin Mu reached out and made a move, and the bronze furnace was suspended in front of him. He made a secret with both hands and used the "Red Fire Jue", and a white flame appeared at the bottom of the furnace.
Third level spiritual fire, bell bamboo shoots fire!
Lin Mu threw a piece of material into the bronze furnace, covered the furnace lid, and began to activate his spiritual power to increase the flame.
This was the first time that Lin Mu relied entirely on his own ability to refine elixirs, but he still lacked experience. Half an hour later, there was a "chi" sound in the furnace, and a burst of green smoke came out of the furnace.
The pungent burnt smell reminded Lin Mu that this alchemy had failed.
Lin Mu himself knew the reason for this failure.
The main reason was that he didn't have enough control over the flames. This time the flames were completely emitted by himself, and the process had to be done carefully. Lin Mu just accidentally became unstable, and the flames immediately became unstable, and the furnace of elixirs was immediately scrapped.
The next three furnaces in a row all ended in failure for Lin Mu.
For Lin Mu, whose success rate in alchemy had exceeded 80%, it was rare for him to fail three times in a row.
Only then did Lin Mu truly realize that relying on external objects and relying on one's own resources were completely different things.
It wasn't until the fifth furnace that Lin Mu carefully refined a bottle of Spirit Gathering Pill.
After refining this bottle of Spirit Gathering Pill, beads of sweat rolled down Lin Mu's forehead. He continued to maintain the output of spiritual power for more than an hour. Even though Lin Mu's cultivation was at the peak of the tenth level of Qi Refining, it was still very difficult.
After refining in this way, every time three bottles of spirit-gathering pills are refined, Lin Mu will meditate and rest for a while.
At this speed, whether it is fast or slow, about twenty bottles of spirit-gathering pills can be refined every day. There is still a certain gap between the previous peak level of more than twenty-five bottles a day.
Ten days later, Lin Mu put away the alchemy furnace.
After ten days of hard work, Lin Mu refined a total of 200 bottles of spirit-gathering pills, which he thought would be enough for his parents to take for a while.
These ten days are ten days in the spiral moon space, and only five days have passed outside.
In these days, Father Lin and Mother Lin have only been out of the Circular Moon Space three times. The rest of the time they spent meditating in the hut. When they were hungry, they took a Bigu Pill and didn't need to eat for several days.
Lin Mu sacrificed the bronze furnace and made the elixir for a total of eighteen days.
It was on the fifteenth day that Father Lin and Mother Lin truly completed the first Zhoutian, and the first step of receiving Qi was initially completed.
It's just that the speed of the two of them is too slow. It takes seven or eight hours to complete a full cycle. Compared with Lin Mu now, it is simply heaven and earth.
Lin Mu gave two hundred bottles of elixirs to his parents and asked them to take one bottle every three days to speed up their cultivation.
Later, Lin Mu dived into alchemy again.
Before making the alchemy this time, Lin Mu left the Xuan Yue Space once to say goodbye to Pang Huai, saying that his family would be away for a while so that he didn't have to worry.
At the same time, Lin Mu also noticed that many of the figures flying around the village were disciples of the Yuling Sect.
These disciples were like ants on a hot pot. Under the urging of the leader Ren Liang, they frantically searched for Lin Mu's whereabouts.
Lin Mu naturally dismissed this and thought, you guys should take your time to find it.
Just in case, Lin Mu was afraid that someone would find this place, so he specifically told Pang Huai that no matter who asked, he would always say that he had never seen him. In order to completely erase the traces, Lin Mu put all the items he bought in Yanman City into the Xuan Yue Space, so that the Yuling Sect disciples could no longer detect any clues.
Later, Lin Mu entered the rotating moon space and began to work hard to refine the elixir.
Five thousand alchemy materials was a huge task for Lin Mu.
At first, Lin Mu could only refine about twenty bottles of spirit-gathering pills every day. As time passed, Lin Mu became more and more skilled in his techniques, and his level of pill refining was also constantly improving.
Later, it gradually became twenty-one bottles a day, twenty-two bottles a day, and later it reached twenty-five bottles a day. It was no different from the previous use of the fire of the earth and lungs to refine elixirs.
But Lin Mu knew that he had made progress. In terms of fire control, he was at least twice as strong as before.
Lin Mu spent half a year refining the Spirit Gathering Pill in the rotating moon space, which is equivalent to three months outside.
In the past six months, Lin Mu finally refined more than 5,000 materials.
Four thousand three hundred and eighty-six bottles!
This is the number of spirit-gathering pills that Lin Mu refined.
These spirit-gathering pills are enough for Father Lin and Mother Lin to take for three years.
The only problem that bothered Lin Mu was that he found that he did not have so many white vials to hold the elixirs.
What a happy trouble.
Lin Mu later simply cleaned the two large water tanks at home, and after drying them, he put all the Spirit-Gathering Pills into the tanks and sealed them with prohibitions to prevent the Spirit-Gathering Pills' spiritual energy from leaking out.
In the past six months, with Lin Mu's continuous supply of spirit-gathering pills, Lin's father and Lin's mother's cultivation had also improved by leaps and bounds. They both reached the peak of the third level of Qi refining, and were only one step away from the fourth level of Qi refining.
If this were said out loud, it would definitely lead to exclamations of surprise.
The cultivation speed of ordinary people is far faster than that of some genius cultivators.
You must know that Lin Mu had been practicing hard at Qianyu Sword Sect for three years, and his cultivation had only reached the third level of Qi Refining.
The speed of Father Lin and Mother Lin would definitely put many geniuses to shame.
