Chapter 660: Sword Cultivation (Thank you to the leader who cultivated the immortal together~)

 After opening the "merit" permission, the disciples obviously became busy.

They come from aristocratic families and may not lack spiritual stones and other monastic resources, but some rare inheritances, reputation within the sect, and even quotas in the inner sect must be striven for.

 This itself is also an invisible competition.

 Whoever has more meritorious deeds means the greatest contribution to the sect. The more recognized by the sect elders, the higher the voice among the disciples.

We are all the proud sons of heaven. Even if we are polite on the surface and pay attention to the friendship of the same family, no one will really obey the other in our hearts.

 Earning merit involves not only one's own interests, but also the face among fellow disciples.

 At their age, face may be more important than "profit".

As a result, the disciples of the same sect became enthusiastic and accepted various "bounties" whenever they could, completed tasks, and earned meritorious deeds.

 This made Mo Hua feel a little at a loss for what to do.

 But no matter what, more than a thousand meritorious services is still a "huge sum of money".

And his current merits are more than a thousand.

It’s just that the Daoting Division has always been verbose and slow in doing things. I don’t know when the cards will be issued.

In addition, there should be some meritorious deeds regarding the Fire Buddha.

 Others are also trying to find ways to earn merit.

 Especially, we need to learn formations.

 For example, looking at the gate, sweeping the street, etc...

There are many monsters in the mountains, some of which are powerful monks who specially capture rare species and put them in the mountains.

 Back at Shangguan's house, Yu'er was required to walk, sit, and lie down in a manner that was polite and restrained, as if he were a disciple of a great family, and was very restrained.

Of course, for some introductory tasks, I still don’t like him.

And what if there is still a Jue Zhen inside Taixu Sect?

How much merit will it take to defeat the enemy?

 I don’t even dare to think about ink painting.

On the contrary, the ink painting is about a person, alone, as if nothing happened.

Even if he rolled on the grass, no one would blame him, Mo Hua would still smile at him, and Yu'er was very happy.

 So it is better to take precautions, make early plans, and accumulate more merits.

 Ink painting suddenly felt like I had already graduated, and then I saw my fellow disciples still "failing the course and making up for the exam" calmly...

“Junior brother, we may not have time to go out on missions this year...”

Mo Hua’s eyes lit up.

 “Monster Refining Mountain!”

Murong Caiyun explained: "We disciples who are in the middle stage of foundation building are about to enter Demon Refining Mountain."

 Only Xiao Yu'er accompanied him to bask in the sun, occasionally rolling happily on the grass.

If a rare formation becomes really expensive, it will be a bottomless pit.

 As for other disciples of the same sect, it is unknown how long it will take them to earn so many meritorious deeds through these entry-level tasks.

 He remembered that Situ Jian seemed to have told him before.

Zheng Fang is immersed in taking over the task of formation...

Mo Hua was stunned.

Situ Jian went to sweep the streets.

At noon, after eating, he could still eat on the grass, bask in the sun and chat with his classmates.

Seeing Yu'er so happy, Mo Hua felt relieved.

During his break, Mo Hua went to find Senior Sister Murong and wanted to continue following the gangster mission, but Murong Caiyun looked apologetic.

 But more than a thousand meritorious deeds will definitely not be enough for him in the future.

 It was what he had accumulated over a long period of time by catching criminal cultivators and drawing formations, and then what was left after buying a lot of formations.

 Cheng Mo went to see the gate.

But in the future, if you learn second-level high-level formations, you may be unable to make ends meet.

 As a result, as soon as "merit" is turned on, everyone has disappeared.

 For things like merit, the more the better.

 But he no longer looks down on these "entry" tasks.

 Even if Mo Hua really wanted to experience it, others would not let him take it if they thought he was weak.

When he arrived at the sect, no one was controlling him, so he became much more lively.

I am only in the early stages of foundation building now, because I am following my senior brothers and sisters, and doing missions in Dao Tingsi. The merit points I earned are used to learn the second-grade mid-level formations, so I can barely make enough money.

 There is a "Monster Refining Mountain" within the boundaries of Qianxue Prefecture.

  As for the matter of meritorious deeds, it’s not that he’s not in a hurry.

 The purpose is to allow the disciples of the sect to experience actual combat, hone their Taoism, and work together to slay demons...

 “Are there many monsters inside?”

"Hmm." Murong Caiyun said, "The Monster Refining Mountain is very large, with complex terrain, and there are many monsters inside. There are many rare materials in the monsters that can be used to refine spiritual weapons."

“Does this Demon Refining Mountain belong to our Taixu Sect?” Mo Hua asked doubtfully.

Murong Caiyun laughed and said, "No, although our Taixu Sect is quite powerful, we still don't have the ability to control the entire Demon Refining Mountain..."

“The Demon Refining Mountain is nominally owned by the entire Qianxue Prefecture, and is under the unified supervision of the four major sects, the eight gates, and the twelve streams.”

“Disciples of all sects can go into the mountains to hunt monsters.”

“Hunted monsters can be skinned and deboned by themselves to obtain materials for refining weapons, or they can be sold to the sect in exchange for meritorious deeds…”

 “Of course, it’s best if you use it yourself.”

“For some special schools of sword cultivators, the materials needed to refine the spirit swords of this school can only be obtained by hunting specific monsters in the Demon Refining Mountain, such as bones, minions, blood essence or inner elixirs, etc…”

"Some extremely rare monster materials can be sold to the sect in exchange for a lot of merit..."

“Therefore, in the middle stage of foundation building, the source of merit for most sect disciples is the monster beasts from the Demon Refining Mountain…”

Mo Hua’s eyes lit up after hearing this.

 Hunting monsters!

 Meritor!

 He felt that his demon hunter bloodline was about to stir.

Murong Caiyun seemed to see through his thoughts and sighed.

She has been with Mo Hua for so long, but she still can't tell what his junior brother is thinking.

Although sometimes, the ink paintings are profound and unfathomable.

 But sometimes, his heart is very simple, and his little thoughts are written on his face.

 “You can’t go.” Murong Caiyun said.

Mo Hua was startled, "Why..."

Murong Caiyun counted them to him one by one:

"First, you are in the early stages of foundation building and your cultivation level is not enough; second, you are in the second year of entry and do not have enough years; third, you need a door talisman to enter Demon Refining Mountain. You are not qualified for this door talisman, so buy it. Less than…”

Mo Hua whispered:

 “Can you sneak in?”

Murong Caiyun glared at him slightly, "It's sealed with a formation, how could you sneak in?"

Mo Hua's eyes lit up, "What level of formation is it?"

Murong Caiyun shook his head, "I don't know about this, but there should be at least a fifth-grade formation."

 “Fifth grade…”

The ink painting is a bit of a pity.

The level of the fifth-grade formation is too high, and I can't do anything about it. Otherwise, I might be able to secretly open the door and sneak in to take a look.

But he was also curious about what the fifth-grade formation looked like.

“In short,” Murong Caiyun warned, “don’t think about the matter of Demon Refining Mountain for now…”

“As for the tasks, if you have any trouble, just tell me and I will definitely help you when I have time.”

Mo Hua was moved and nodded:

“Don’t worry, senior sister, you go about your business first and don’t worry about me!”

After separating from Murong Caiyun, Mo Hua walked alone in the direction of his disciple's residence.

As he walked, he thought about it in his mind.

“Senior Sister Murong is going to the Demon Refining Mountain…”

“Then Senior Brother Shangguan, Senior Brother Feng, and Senior Sister Qianqian, they should also go into the mountain..."

“After all, Demon Refining Mountain is the main source of merit for disciples in the middle stage of foundation building.”

 This way, no one will take me to play...

 Although I am a little more familiar with Daotingsi now.

 But Daotingsi is Daotingsi after all, not a sect. It is very complicated and the water is very muddy. The credit earned may not be converted into the sect's "merits".

Even if it can be transferred, the process is cumbersome and lengthy.

 “Then...get more people to play together?”

Who to pull?

 Cheng Mo, Situ Jian and the others?

Mo Hua shook his head slightly.

 They are all in the early stages of foundation building.

 I used to play with my senior brothers and sisters who were in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, Daotingsi Executive Secretary who was in the late Foundation Establishment stage, and Uncle Gu, Gu Diansi who was in the Golden Core stage.

It’s enough if you don’t upgrade, how can you still downgrade?

But after thinking about it, it seems that there is no one else.

Mo Hua thought about it for a long time and sighed.

 “Let’s talk about it later…”

 Do your own thing well first.

 After returning to his disciple's residence, Mo Hua meditated in his room, closing his eyes and practicing.

 When the sea of ​​qi is full and the meridians are slightly swollen, then you open your eyes.

 “Practice!”

 From now on, spend more time every day on practice.

Although it is said that spiritual practice is a matter of time and effort, and it is important to keep practicing and it will come naturally, but if you work harder every day and practice more diligently, the speed will naturally be faster.

 Ink Hua has considered it.

 The second year in the sect was actually very boring.

 His spiritual realm was blocked by his cultivation.

 The bottleneck between the sixteenth and seventeenth lines is the bottleneck of spiritual consciousness from the middle stage of foundation building to the late stage of foundation building.

 This bottleneck is like a chasm.

Even though Mo Hua was drawing formations every day and honing his spiritual consciousness, he would occasionally protect Xiao Yu'er from nightmares and earn some "extra money" by the way.

 But his spiritual consciousness is too advanced after all.

 It will be difficult to break through this obstacle in a short period of time.

His consciousness is stuck, and the level of the ink-drawn formation cannot continue to improve.

He can only broaden the foundation of formations and continue to learn other formations within the second grade and sixteen lines...

 It’s just this type of formation. After all, it’s not challenging. It’s a bit boring after learning too much...

Mo Hua sighed.

 He wants to learn higher-level formations.

 Especially the metamagnetic formations, the construction of deeper magnetic patterns and the application of secondary thunder patterns, Mo Hua has been eyeing it for a long time.

 But without a breakthrough in spiritual consciousness, he would not be able to learn it now.

 Ink painting is a little helpless.

 …

 One month later, because Senior Sister Murong and the others entered the Demon Refining Mountain, Mo Hua rarely went out to do tasks.

He alone cannot receive the "bounty" above the middle stage of foundation building.

The reward in the early stage of foundation building is too little.

 It's a bit of a waste of time for him to do it alone.

 It is better to draw more second-level formations yourself, so that you don’t have to run around and earn more merit.

 Ink painting is even more boring.

 You cannot go out to offer rewards.

 Cultivation level increases bit by bit, slowly, but cannot break through the realm.

The spiritual consciousness is also gradually increasing bit by bit, but it can't break through the realm either.

Yu'er occasionally encounters nightmares at night, and is harassed by demons, but there are no sheep bones to follow.

 As for spells, you have pretty much learned what you need to learn. The structure of the small meteorite technique is already very stable.

He also learned a lot of other second-grade functional formations...

 In a short period of time, there is nothing to pursue...

 Life is as plain as water, with no surprises or joy.

Mo Hua suddenly felt that he should take the initiative to find something more to learn...

 He thought for a while, then picked up the "Breaking Gold Sword Control Technique" again, wanting to practice his sword skills.

 When it comes to practicing sword qi, my foundation in ink painting is too poor.

 Other disciples who practice swordsmanship in the sect have their own family heritage. Under the influence, they have been practicing sword moves and sword aura since they were young.

 With each higher level of cultivation, the sword energy becomes more powerful.

 At the later stage of cultivation, the sword and man become one, and the energy of the sword reaches the sky and the earth.

 Mo Hua was born as a casual cultivator. Before establishing the foundation, he had basically never touched a sword.

The only time he encountered a sword was when Zhang Lan was teaching the passing water step. In order to demonstrate the formation, he asked Mo Hua to stab him with the sword.

That luxurious and heavy sword has not yet been picked up by Mo Hua...

 In the end, I could only replace it with a branch.

Therefore, if you really want to practice swordsmanship, you have no foundation at all in ink painting, let alone compete with other swordsmanship practitioners...

 But idleness is also idle, and people always have something to pursue.

Mo Hua regarded practicing swordsmanship as his way of "intelligence and entertainment".

Even if you can't cultivate it, it is still a good thing to know yourself and your enemy and restrain yourself from sword cultivation.

This sword technique is used to break the Golden Gate.

It was not easy to practice ink painting in public, so I found a secluded grove, bought a second-hand Broken Spirit Sword, and practiced by myself.

The Broken Metal Sword Technique is a metal-based sword technique.

 Ink painting is a small five-element spiritual root, and also contains a part of the golden spiritual root.

 You can practice it with practice.

 After practicing for a while, I discovered a problem in ink painting.

Sword energy seems to be condensed on its own, which is indeed very difficult.

The sword cultivators he has met include Zhang Lan, Uncle Zhang, Senior Brother Ouyang Feng, Senior Brother Shangguan Xu, and Situ Jian, who is in the same class as him.

When they use their swords, the sword energy they inspire is stable in shape, sharp in sword energy, and powerful.

 But the sword energy that I cultivated...

 There are some ink paintings that are difficult to evaluate...

The condensed sword energy, first of all, the shape of the sword is not fixed. Let's call it a "sword", it is similar to a "stick", and sometimes it looks like a "branch"...

The sword is not very sharp, and sometimes it cannot even cut the bark of a tree...

Not to mention its power.

 He throws a fireball casually, and its lethality is higher than this "sword energy"...

Mo Hua fell into deep confusion.

“Is my talent for practicing swordsmanship really that bad?”

 “It’s not that bad…”

“Or is it that everything is difficult at the beginning, and I just haven’t gotten started yet?”

Mo Hua couldn’t understand it, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

  There’s nothing else to practice anyway, so let’s practice and have fun first…

 Whatever you practice will be what you do, no need to put pressure on yourself.

If you really can't cultivate it, you should take precautions and lay the foundation of sword cultivation to prepare for the future "Taixu Divine Mind Transformation Sword True Technique".

 "Shen Nian Sword True Technique", as the name suggests, should be different from ordinary swordsmanship.

         ,

Mo Hua sighed.

 That’s all I can do to comfort myself...

After tea and dinner, when I have free time for ink painting, I will find a small forest and practice my skills by chopping a few swords.

 Sword energy was flowing, the trees remained motionless, only the leaves were falling.

 Fortunately, I am not discouraged in ink painting.

 Just think that you are "pruning" the sect's trees.

 …

 Just like this, another period of time passed.

One day, Mo Hua returned to his disciples' residence and met several disciples on the road, talking to each other.

Mo Hua took a closer look and found that it was Cheng Mo, Situ Jian, and three other disciples who were not familiar with them.

Mo Hua walked in quietly and heard them saying intermittently:

 “The day after tomorrow…ten days off…”

 “Outside Cheongju City…”

 “I pretended to be a senior brother…I finally got it…”

"not dangerous…"

 “It’s okay…the five of us are enough…”

 “Just catching someone…”

 “At your fingertips…”

"…ah!"

Before Cheng Mo finished speaking, he suddenly noticed someone standing behind him. He was startled and his face turned pale. When he realized it was Mo Hua, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“Mo Hua, you scared me...”

 Then he complained: "Why are you eavesdropping on us?"

Mo Hua was speechless, "This is an upright road. I walked uprightly, stopped uprightly, and listened to you all..."

“How can you blame me for your lack of vigilance?”

Cheng Mo was speechless, then muttered:

“Who knew you walked like a cat? Not only did you have no sound, you didn’t even breathe…”

Mo Hua looked at them suspiciously, "What bad idea are you... planning?"

 Cheng Mo seemed to be a student who had been caught wrong by the "teaching", and immediately became nervous, "Let's talk about...cultivation..."

Mo Hua looked unbelieving.

 Cheng Mo said: "Really!"

 After saying this, he felt something was wrong.

Mo Hua is not an elder, let alone a teacher. He is just a "little senior brother" who teaches them formations and they dare not offend. Why is he so nervous?

 Cheng Mo immediately stood up straight.

Mo Hua whispered: "You want to secretly accept Daotingsi's reward?"

Cheng Mo was startled, "How do you know?"

Mo Hua curled his lips.

They are all leftovers from my own play, and they are made mysterious...

Situ Jian lowered his voice and said, "Mo Hua, don't tell me..."

Cheng Mo also nodded repeatedly. After thinking about it, he felt that there was no sincerity in this. Usually, a "bribe" would be required in this kind of situation.

Cheng Mo then said: "Mo Hua, you promise not to tell anyone. After the matter is completed, we..."

Cheng Mo hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "... I'll give you some of the merit!"

Mo Hua was curious, "How much is it divided into?"

Cheng Mo became confused.

 They just did these tasks, so they couldn't earn much merit, and even if they did, they wouldn't be able to use it.

 “I’ll give you ten points…” Cheng Mo said cruelly, “I’ll give you ten points!”

 Ink painting: “…”

Cheng Mo didn’t say anything when he saw the ink painting. He was a little shocked and said:

“You don’t think it’s too little, do you?”

"Ten o'clock...it's not much..." Mo Hua said.

Cheng Mo said heartbrokenly:

“You really don’t know how expensive firewood and rice are. Do you know that for these ten points of merit, how many days will I have to watch the gate and how many times will I sweep the streets?!”

 “Do you think this kind of merit is easy to earn?”

"Okay, okay..." Mo Hua said helplessly, "I won't tell you to go out, and I don't want your merits, but it is very dangerous to go out, so be careful..."

Cheng Mo was stunned, then immediately smiled, put his arm around Mo Hua's shoulders and said:

"You are indeed my good brother! If anything happens in the future, I will protect you!"

Situ Jian also glanced at Mo Hua gratefully.

 But seeing Cheng Mo's proud look, one of the disciples couldn't help but said:

“Stop putting a lot of money on your face. How can you protect the ink painting?”

Cheng Mo said: "What do you know?"

 “Why don’t I understand?”

“A fence has three stakes, a good man, and three gangs...”

 “Are you a hero too? At most you are a piece of shit…”

 …

Mo Hua saw them making noise and didn't bother to pay attention to them. He only told them:

 “Be careful when you go out…”

 “Some sin cultivators are very cunning...”

 After that, Mo Hua left.

Mo Hua is not too worried either.

Although the five people of Cheng Mo, although they were disciples of the foundation, they were all born in the world.

 Five people working together, even if they encounter an ordinary mid-stage foundation building, even if they cannot win, they can still escape.

What’s more, what they arrested this time should only be criminal cultivators in the early stages of foundation building, so it’s not a big problem.

A few days later, Mo Hua saw clearly that Cheng Mo and the others had secretly left the sect during the ten-day break.

Within two days, several people came back with great satisfaction.

Mo Hua knew without thinking that their mission was successfully completed.

Especially Cheng Mo, it seems that he has made a lot of achievements in this mission, and he is very proud of himself.

Taixu Sect currently does not allow disciples like them to take on the task of arresting sin cultivators.

 First, most sin cultivators are vicious.

And the disciples in the sect, who have been pampered and arrogant since childhood, suddenly come into contact with sin cultivators, and can easily be plotted and fell into trouble.

 Cheng Mo and the others are quite capable and have good luck.

 Because they accepted the mission secretly, they were considered the first batch of disciples from the same sect, except Mo Hua, to successfully complete this wanted "reward".

This kind of thing is naturally the most popular.

 The elders don’t know, or they just turn a blind eye.

 But this matter gradually spread among the disciples.

 There are also many disciples who are beginning to think about going out.

 After all, the introductory missions are too slow and boring to accumulate merit, which is far less exciting than this type of wanted "bounty", which is fresh and exciting, and the benefits are also high.

Some disciples secretly asked Tuomo how to accept missions, what to pay attention to when going out, what pills to prepare, etc...

 Cheng Mo was even more proud.

But he didn’t forget about ink painting either.

One day while eating, Cheng Mo secretly found Mo Hua and said, "Next time I do a mission, I will take you with me..."

Mo Hua was stunned for a moment, "You take me?"

"Well!" Cheng Mo said, "There are four of us, plus you. You don't have to do anything. You just run errands and do odd jobs. I will share the merit with you when the time comes..."

The ink painting has complex emotions and is a bit touching.

But he still shook his head.

 He doesn’t need Cheng Mo to lead him.

And he doesn’t care about the little merit he gets...

Cheng Mo thought Mo Hua didn’t trust him and vowed:

"In terms of formation, I recognize you as the eldest brother! But if you really want to go out to offer rewards and arrest criminal cultivators, your little arms and legs won't do it. You have to recognize me as your eldest brother!"

 The ink picture is expressionless, "Oh..."
