Chapter 7: The Title of Scrap Material
The training hall is divided into three parts. The front yard is for the primary class, where beginners learn to guide the breath into their bodies. After practicing the 5th layer of Qi, students begin to choose a corresponding Gongfa, at which point they move to the intermediate class in the backyard, where they are taught Gongfa and techniques by seniors in the foundation-building period. When they reach the 10th layer of Qi, students can come to the middle yard, where the spiritual energy is the most concentrated place in the training hall.
The Qi Refining stage has 12 layers, with the first four layers being the early stage of Qi Refining, the fifth to eighth layers being the middle stage, and crossing the ninth layer is the late stage. At the tenth layer, one can take the Foundation Establishment Pill to attempt foundation establishment. The twelfth layer is the peak of Qi Refining.
Zi Yun was promoted to intermediate class half a month ago after advancing to Qi Refining 5th layer, so he specifically came to send Luo Yu over.
The front yard was a square of about 500 square meters, with more than 10 cushions placed in the middle. At this time, there were already 9 people sitting on it, including naive children and teenagers around 10 years old.
"Seventh Brother!"
"Seventh brother!"
As Luo Yu and his sister walked in, everyone stood up to greet them. Only one person remained seated, letting out a cold hum at them.
Luo Yu looked at her in confusion, and saw a bright-eyed and white-toothed little girl, about 10 years old, wearing a red dress.
At this time, Zi Yun pulled Luo Yu over and introduced her to everyone; "This is my younger sister, Luo Yu, thirteen years old, please help take care of her!"
"Hey, isn't this the useless trash that Elder said can't even build a foundation?" A sharp female voice rang out.
Zi Ye glanced over, and the red-shirted woman finally closed her mouth in anger.
Luoyu wasn't actually angry, this was the truth, but it's strange that the woman targeted her. Was it because of her brother? The woman had unrequited love and turned to hate? Luoyu couldn't help but think about gossip.
As it was already a bit late when he arrived, Ziyu hastily gave a few instructions and left.
Luoyu sat quietly on a rush cushion at the side, and no one paid attention to her.
He's just a useless person, nothing valuable! What happened in the Zong Si Tang yesterday has been known to everyone for a long time, it's just that they still need to give Huang Xiao Qi some face.
"Thirteen Sisters——"
Luo Yu turned his head to the left and saw a dark-skinned little boy softly calling him.
(⊙o⊙) Oh, isn't this Dog Wawa's little brother? No, it's Zi Qín Tóng Jué!
"Fifteenth younger brother." Luo Yu responded.
"When you weren't here, I heard that Seventh Brother is incredibly powerful, reaching the 5th layer of Qi training in just 4 years. Oh, and the most powerful one is Ninth Sister, who has already reached the 8th layer of Qi training. The second most powerful one is Fifth Sister, who has reached the 7th layer of Qi training." Huang Ziqin said with a face full of admiration.
Wow, worthy of being called a genius female lead and female supporting character!
Luo Yu had not yet responded when a middle-aged monk approached.
All I saw was his thick eyebrows and wide mouth, with a serious face, very majestic.
"Today, five new people have arrived, and what I say today is only for you to listen, the rest of the old people can practice on their own."
At this time a little maid handed out a booklet to the five people. Luo Yudian took a look and saw that it was written with "Qigong".
"This technique is for you to guide the energy into your body, but only after reaching the fifth level of Qi cultivation can you choose a method. Among the five of you, one has three spiritual roots, two have four spiritual roots, and two have five spiritual roots. Your innate abilities are not very good, but there's no need to be discouraged. If you persist, it will take at most 10 days or a month to guide the energy into your body. Now, let's open the manual." The middle-aged cultivator paused for a moment.
"In the beginning, heaven and earth were mixed in chaos, later the clear air rose up, and the turbid air sank down..."
After he explained it once, he left, leaving the five people to feel the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on their own.
Luo Yu sat cross-legged, with five hearts facing upwards, her tongue pressed against the upper palate, and her eyes closed, feeling the spiritual energy surrounding her body...
"This is the standard posture for cultivation, but it's not necessary. As you cultivate deeper, anywhere and anytime, even lying flat can be used for cultivation. It's just that for this group of ignorant children, such a posture allows them to feel the spiritual energy more easily and guide the energy into their bodies earlier."
"Sister, sister!" "Brother?" Luo Yu struggled to open her eyes, "How are you here?"
"Everyone's gone!" Zi Xi helplessly looked at this dazed little girl, "Follow brother home."
"Brother, I've been sitting for a long time but I still haven't felt any spiritual energy... and then... and then..." Luo Yu's voice grew softer and softer.
"It's okay, I also didn't notice the spiritual energy around me until the second day."
"How long have you been practicing qigong?"
"Alright, the 8th day then." Zi Xi said after thinking for a while.
"Wow, brother is so amazing! Brother, tell me about Fifth Sister and Ninth Sister."
"Jiū mèi wǒ měi rì dōu kàn dào tā qù hòu yuàn, hěn ān jìng, wǒ yě xī zhēn yǔ tā yǒu shén jiāo liú. Zhì yú wǔ jiě——" zǐ xī zhòu le yī xià méi tou.
"I rarely see her, she hardly ever comes to the school, only heard that she cultivates in the clan leader's exclusive practice room."
The afterglow of spring shines on two small people, one tall and one short, as they walk, their shadows gradually lengthening behind them...
