Chapter 104 Heart Method

For cultivators, if they want to achieve something, talent, mind method, and resources complement each other and are indispensable.

Since Lin Mu wants his parents to embark on the path of immortality, he needs to start with these aspects.

There is no need to elaborate on talent. Both of them are mortals without spiritual roots, and there is no room for improvement in this regard.

In terms of mind method, there are many choices.

The "Nine Directions Heart Method" that Lin Mu has been practicing is a very good basic mind method. Although the grade is not high, it is better in that the spiritual power is mellow and warm, and there is no risk of going astray. However, the "Nine Directions Heart Method" is only a second-grade heart method after all, and the effect of practice is not very significant. It is not suitable for parents who are already middle-aged.

In addition, the "Phantom Heart Method" of the Yuling Sect is as high as the fourth grade, which is also a good choice. But the "Phantom Heart Method" is more suitable for the disciples of the Yuling Sect. Many secret techniques are closely related to spirit beasts. This choice is not the best.

Lin Mu's favorite is the "Five Elements Heart Method", which is very suitable for his parents.

Both of them have no spiritual roots. The five elements of heaven and earth are originally one. Before building the foundation, they can't perform any five elements magic.

They can only perform some neutral magic, such as "Wind Control", "Object Control", "Sound Transmission", "Giant Strength", etc.

Five elements magic like "Genjin Jue", "Fireball", "Water Arrow" can't be performed because they don't have spiritual roots.

They can only wait until the foundation is built, and they can separate the five elements of spiritual energy in their spiritual power by themselves, and then they can rely on their own spiritual power to perform magic.

In this way, before the foundation is built, the attack power of the two will be extremely low, and they must not fight with others, otherwise they will inevitably cause a disaster.

Lin Mu's heart was firm, and he secretly made up his mind that he would never allow anyone to hurt his parents.

After making a good choice, Lin Mu took out the jade slip with the Five Elements Heart Sutra 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 a night to memorize the formula of just a few hundred words.

Following the formula, Lin's father and mother tried to practice. After half an incense stick, they felt a burst of heat rising in their abdomen.

Lin Mu was overjoyed and told them that this was spiritual energy.

It was just that the heat was like a small insect, crawling in the meridians, and it automatically dissipated before it moved forward.

This was the same as when Lin Mu first practiced. Lin Mu also encountered such a problem at the beginning.

This is the first stage of practice, Qi absorption. The cultivator absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and circulates it in the meridians along a fixed route.

It's just that the two of them have poor qualifications, and the spiritual energy they absorb is too little, far from reaching the point where the spiritual energy can circulate freely in the body.

Lin Mu knew that it would take some time for the two to accumulate enough spiritual energy to maintain the most basic circulation.

Lin Mu was not anxious about this. It took him three days to accumulate enough spiritual energy to run for a week.

Both of his parents were less talented than him. Yanman City was also located in a remote area. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was far less dense than that of Lin Mu's sect. It was reasonable that the speed was slow.

When Lin Mu decided to let his parents practice Taoism, he had already expected the current situation.

But this did not discourage Lin Mu. He decided to start using his own resources.

Lin Mu greeted his parents and then took them into the Xuanyue space.

As soon as they landed, Lin's father and mother were deeply shocked again. In the Xuanyue space, there were six acres of spiritual fields, spiritual herbs and medicines everywhere, and the fragrance of medicine was overflowing. The spiritual energy was rich.

The spiritual energy here was even more than twice as dense as that of the West Peak where Lin Mu was. Although Lin's father and mother were weak in sensing spiritual energy, they also felt refreshed in front of this abundant spiritual energy.

Lin Mu brought his parents into the hut and said with a smile: "Dad, Mom, you can practice in this room. You will be able to complete the circulation of the heavenly body in less than ten days."

Father and mother Lin suddenly left their own courtyard and came to this strange space. They were a little panicked. Mother Lin asked: "Where are we? How come we are here when it went dark?"

Lin Mu took out the jade pendant from his neck and handed it to his mother, saying: "We are now in this Xuanyue pendant. As long as my consciousness moves, I will still be in the room after I go out."

After that, Lin Mu took his parents and appeared in the room again.

Looking at the familiar scene in the room, the two believed that what Lin Mu said was true. Lin's mother exclaimed: "This jade pendant is really magical. There are several acres of land inside. 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 to the storage bag and corrected: "This is a storage bag, which is specially used to store things. It is much better than the cloth bag you mentioned."

Lin's father 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. I discovered this secret by accident at the beginning. It was with this jade pendant that I achieved some success in cultivation."

Lin's mother boldly guessed: "Maybe one of our ancestors once practiced Taoism, so this jade pendant was passed down."

Lin Mu nodded and said: "Maybe so, but the time is too long, and the ancestors have long been buried, and there is no way to verify it."

Father Lin said: "Not necessarily. Maybe the ancestors have already become immortals. They left this jade pendant to leave hope for the descendants. All these coincidences are also God's will."

Lin Mu smiled and said: "Don't worry about the origin of the jade pendant. As long as it is beneficial to cultivation, it's fine."

After that, he brought his parents into the Xuanyue space again.

Father Lin nodded in agreement and turned to Mother Lin and said: "Let's practice in this room."

Lin Mu smiled and said: "You two elders can practice here with peace of mind. I will help you refine some spirit gathering pills. When you can complete the circulation of the heaven, you can take the spirit gathering pills to practice."

Father Lin and Mother Lin were very happy and began to sit in meditation in the house to practice.

Lin Mu smiled and did not disturb the two. He came 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.

It took Lin Mu eight days to refine this top-grade bronze furnace.

Now, refining pills by yourself is not like renting a pill room. The flames in the pill room come from the underground lung fire, which is extremely easy. The flames needed for refining pills by yourself are all supported by the spiritual power in the body of the cultivator. It is necessary to sacrifice the pill furnace once so that the pill furnace and the cultivator can have a slight mental connection to achieve the best effect.

Lin Mu stretched out his hand and the bronze furnace floated in front of him. He pinched his hands and used the "Red Fire Art" to make a ball of white flame appear at the bottom of the furnace.

Third-grade spiritual fire bell shoot fire!

Lin Mu threw a portion of material into the bronze furnace, covered the furnace, and began to stimulate spiritual power and increase the flame.

This was the first time that Lin Mu relied entirely on his own ability to refine pills, but he still lacked experience. Half an hour later, there was a "hiss" sound in the furnace, and a puff of green smoke came out of the furnace.

The pungent smell of burning reminded Lin Mu that this time the pill refining had failed.

Lin Mu himself knew the reason for this failure.

The main reason was that he didn't have enough control over the flame. This time, the flame was completely emitted by himself, and the whole process had to be done carefully. Lin Mu was just not careful, and the flame immediately became unstable, and the furnace of pills was immediately scrapped.

The next three furnaces, Lin Mu failed.

For Lin Mu, whose success rate in alchemy has exceeded 80%, three consecutive failures are a rare thing.

Lin Mu only then truly realized that relying on external objects and being self-reliant are completely different things.

It was not until the fifth furnace that Lin Mu carefully refined a bottle of Gathering Spirit Pill.

After refining this bottle of Gathering Spirit Pill, Lin Mu's forehead was covered with sweat. He kept maintaining 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 strenuous.

After refining like this, every time he refined three bottles of Gathering Spirit Pill, Lin Mu had to sit down and rest for a while.

This speed is neither fast nor slow. He can refine about 20 bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills every day, which is still a certain distance from the previous peak level of more than 25 bottles per day.

Ten days later, Lin Mu put away the pill furnace.

After ten days of hard work, Lin Mu refined a total of 200 bottles of Gathering Spirit Pills, which should be enough for his parents to take for a period of time.

These ten days are ten days in the Xuanyue Space, and only five days have passed outside.

During these days, Lin's father and mother only left the Xuanyue Space three times in total. The rest of the time they meditated in the hut. When they were hungry, they took a fasting pill and did not need to eat for several days.

It took Lin Mu eighteen days to sacrifice the bronze furnace and refine the pill.

It was on the fifteenth day that Lin's father and mother truly completed the first cycle, and the first step of taking in qi was initially completed.

But the speed of the two was too slow. It took seven or eight hours to run a cycle, which was a world of difference compared to Lin Mu now.

Lin Mu distributed two hundred bottles of pills to his parents, asking them to take one bottle every three days to speed up their cultivation.

Then, Lin Mu plunged into alchemy again.

Before this alchemy, Lin Mu left the Xuanyue Space once to say goodbye to Pang Huai, saying that his family would be away for a while and asked him not 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, and under the urging of the head Ren Liang, they were frantically looking for Lin Mu's whereabouts.

Lin Mu naturally disdained this and thought, you guys take your time to look for it.

In case someone else finds this place, Lin Mu specifically told Pang Huai to say that no matter who asked, he had never seen him. In order to completely erase the traces, Lin Mu even put all the items he bought in Yanman City into the Xuanyue Space, so that the disciples of the Yuling Sect could no longer find any clues.

Then, Lin Mu entered the Xuanyue Space and began to work hard to make pills.

Five thousand alchemy materials is a huge task for Lin Mu.

At first, Lin Mu could only refine about twenty bottles of Juling Pills every day. As time passed, Lin Mu's skills became more and more skilled, and his alchemy level continued to improve.

Later, it slowly became twenty-one bottles a day, twenty-two bottles, and later reached twenty-five bottles a day, which was no different from the previous alchemy with the Earth Lung Fire.

But Lin Mu knew his progress. In terms of fire control, he was at least more than twice as strong as before.

Lin Mu spent a full half year refining the Soul Gathering Pill in the Xuanyue Space, which was equivalent to three months outside.

During this half year, Lin Mu finally finished refining more than 5,000 materials.

4,386 bottles!

This is the number of Soul Gathering Pills that Lin Mu refined.

These Soul Gathering Pills are enough for Lin's father and mother to use for three years without worry.

The only problem that bothered Lin Mu was that he found that he did not have so many white small bottles to store the pills.

It was a happy trouble.

Later, Lin Mu simply cleaned the two large water tanks in his home, dried them, put all the Soul Gathering Pills in the tanks, and sealed them with restrictions to prevent the Soul Gathering Pills from leaking out.

During this half year, with Lin Mu's continuous supply of Soul Gathering Pills, Lin's father and mother's cultivation also made great progress, both reaching the peak of the third level of Qi Refining, and only one step away from the fourth level of Qi Refining.

If this were to be told, it would definitely cause exclamations.

The cultivation speed of mortals is actually far beyond that of some genius cultivators.

You have to know that Lin Mu had practiced hard for three years in Qianyu Sword Sect, but his cultivation level was only at the third level of Qi Refining.

If the speed of Lin's father and mother were known to others, it would surely embarrass many geniuses.
