Chapter 58 Gift

Mo Hua went home and told his parents that he was about to break through the fourth level of Qi Refining and was going to practice martial arts.

Mo Shan and Liu Ruhua were very happy. At Mo Hua's age, being able to become a cultivator at the fourth level of Qi Refining was considered outstanding among his peers in Tongxian City.

As for the matter of the technique, Mo Shan told Mo Hua not to worry:

"Your mother and I have discussed it a long time ago. Since we can't learn the techniques of Tongxian Sect, we can only find some experienced casual practitioners to teach us. There is a senior named Han among the demon hunters in Tongxian City. He has the spiritual root of the small five elements and is also of medium quality. I will invite Senior Han to drink in a few days and ask him to help. Senior Han is a kind-hearted person and should be happy to help. We can give him some spiritual stones as a reward. It's just that..."

Mo Shan paused and said, "It's just that Senior Han is also a casual practitioner. He often said that although his technique is inherited from his family and is quite complete, it is not a good inheritance. I'm afraid there will be no future for him to practice..."

Mo Shan hopes to give Mo Hua the best, but this is all he can give. He looks a little disappointed.

Mo Hua comforted him, "Dad, I want to be a formation master in the future. As long as a formation master has sufficient spiritual awareness, there is no need to pay too much attention to the skills. It is enough to practice peacefully. This skill was also passed down from generation to generation by Senior Han, which means that the skill is safe to practice and there will be no mistakes. This is better than anything else."

Mo Shan looked relieved. Liu Ruhua also touched Mo Hua's head and said softly:

"Eat, and rest early after eating. Tomorrow I will learn the formation from Mr. Zhuang."

"Yes." Mo Hua nodded obediently.

Bai Zisheng said that he would help Mo Hua find a few skills. Mo Hua didn't tell his parents, because the larger the family, the stricter the inheritance within the family, and things would not be passed on casually.

Besides, he didn't want to accept Bai Zisheng's favor, and the key was that he couldn't repay this favor now.

Who knew that the next day, Bai Zisheng really took a few jade slips and handed them to Mo Hua like a thief.

"I took this out secretly when Aunt Xue wasn't paying attention. Take a look and see if there's anything suitable. If there is, choose one and keep it. I'll return the rest."

Mo Hua opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say.

Bai Zisheng was proud, "How is it? Are you touched?"

Bai Zisheng looked a little arrogant, but he was also very enthusiastic.

Mo Hua said, "Will you not be punished for secretly taking out the skills?"

Bai Zisheng snorted, "I am a direct descendant of the Bai family. Let alone a few low-level skills, even if it is an innate treasure passed down from my ancestors, they can take it and they dare not do anything to me."

Mo Hua's eyes were full of disbelief.

Bai Zisheng was dissatisfied, "Can I still lie to you?"

"It's just confinement for one or two years, it's nothing."

Bai Zixi's tone was flat, but there was a faint smile in his eyes.

Bai Zisheng's face was a little red.

Mo Hua thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I can't take these skills, I can't let you get involved."

Bai Zisheng said unhappily, "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

Bai Zixi also said softly, "Although these skills are valuable, they are not too rare for the Bai family. Just practice them, nothing will happen, otherwise Aunt Xue wouldn't let my brother take them out."

"That's right!" Bai Zisheng nodded quickly, and suddenly said "ah", "How did Aunt Xue know that I took out the skills?"

Bai Zixi glanced at him lightly, "Whatever you do, Aunt Xue will notice, it's just you who thinks others don't know."

Bai Zisheng drooped his shoulders, his ambition was somewhat frustrated.

It would be a lie for Mo Hua to say that he was not tempted. He also wanted to know what kind of skills the aristocratic families practiced and what mysteries they had.

After thinking it through, Mo Hua no longer refused. He silently remembered the good intentions of the Bai brothers and sisters in his heart, and then took the jade slip from Bai Zisheng's hand and read it:

"Small Five Elements Art", suitable for the cultivation of medium-grade five-element spiritual roots, is a simplified version of the top-grade "Big Five Elements Art", cultivators can refine spiritual power for up to 33 cycles, can control the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, simple and versatile...

"Spiritual Hidden Art", suitable for the cultivation of medium-grade water spiritual roots, can cultivate spiritual power for 28 cycles, suitable for concealment spells...

"Flame Art", suitable for the cultivation of medium-grade fire spiritual roots, can refine spiritual power for 35 cycles, can increase the power of fire spells by 10% to 20%...

"Water and Wood Spirit Art", suitable for the cultivation of medium-grade water and wood spiritual roots, can refine spiritual power for 36 cycles, practicing this art can cleanse the meridians, warm the body, and reduce the bottleneck of cultivation. This art can nourish the body, but it cannot strengthen the body, and it is not suitable as a body cultivation art for the main attack. Required spiritual objects: Tianshen wood, Wuyin water, Hualing liquid...

...

Mo Hua was dazzled by the selection and thought everything was good, but as he looked, his brows gradually furrowed.

"Is there nothing suitable?" Bai Zisheng asked when he saw Mo Hua frowning.

Mo Hua asked after careful consideration, "What is Tianshen wood?"

"Tianshen wood is the root of Tianshen, which can nourish the body and is not a very expensive thing."

"How many spiritual stones does it cost?"

"The buds of Tianshen are extremely precious, but Tianshen wood is much cheaper, probably only a few hundred spirit stones per bottle." Bai Zisheng said uncertainly.

"What is the infinite water?"

Bai Zisheng didn't know, so he scratched his head and looked at Bai Zixi.

Bai Zixi's beautiful eyes turned slightly, and said: "The infinite water is the sea water of the infinite sea. It needs to be refined by the alchemist for forty-nine days to remove the impurities in the sea water, and finally condensed into infinite water. Infinite water is not precious, but it takes time. A small bottle of infinite water costs about a thousand spirit stones. If it is in a remote place, it will be more expensive. Moreover, this kind of spiritual object is relatively uncommon, and it may not be available for purchase even if there are spirit stones occasionally."

Mo Hua took a breath of cold air.

What kind of skills are these? He can't afford to practice them at all!

For skills like "Water and Wood Spiritual Skills", even if only a Tianshen wood and a small bottle of infinite water are needed, the spirit stones required are far beyond Mo Hua's expectations.

Moreover, according to the description of the technique, spiritual objects are needed for cultivation, spiritual objects are needed for breakthrough, and spiritual stones for daily cultivation. The accumulated amount is an astronomical figure, which is far beyond what Mo Hua can afford.

This is the consumption of the Qi Refining Stage, not to mention the Foundation Building Stage. The further you go in cultivation, the more resources you need. This is a well-known fact.

Even if Mo Hua really becomes a first-class formation master and draws formations day and night, he may not be able to afford the cost of such cultivation.

Mo Hua looked at Bai Zisheng, then at Bai Zixi, and couldn't help asking, "Do all the disciples in your family practice this kind of skills?"

"Of course not," Bai Zisheng shook his head, "The direct disciples practice a more superior skill, and the natural treasures they need are much more precious than these. Some spiritual objects are even more priceless, and only the family keeps them and never passes them on."

"But this kind of skill cannot be passed on to others. Even if you want to pass it on, others can't practice it without these special spiritual objects required for practice."

"What I gave you are the best ones among the skills that can be passed on at your discretion. Generally, collateral disciples or illegitimate disciples may not be qualified to practice unless they have excellent qualifications."

"Does your family give spiritual objects for practicing skills?" Mo Hua asked.

"Others don't know, but for me and Zixi, the things we use for practice are all given by our mother." Bai Zisheng said.

Bai Zixi glanced at Bai Zisheng and said calmly:

"The family will classify the disciples according to their illegitimate status and talent. The more legitimate the disciple is, the better his talent is, and the higher the clan rank is, the more cultivation resources he will be given. The legitimate children with excellent talent can basically get whatever they want as long as they need to cultivate..."

"Other disciples, if they want to practice better skills and have more cultivation resources than the rank required, they have to find a way themselves. Generally, parents or other relatives spend merit points to exchange spiritual objects from the clan."

"No matter what the situation is, the world will give you the spiritual resources you need." The children of the family only need to practice, and they don't need to find ways to obtain the spiritual stones and spiritual objects needed for practice. "

"That's right," Bai Zisheng nodded and said:

"Whether it is our Bai family or other aristocratic families, they have been around for at least a thousand years, with rich accumulated heritage and easy access to natural treasures. Except for those that are truly extinct, all natural treasures that can be obtained are not scarce."

Mo Hua was shocked. The resources of the aristocratic families are as vast as the ocean, and the inheritance is as numerous as the sea of ​​​​smoke, while what a casual cultivator can get is just a drop in the ocean.

No wonder the Qi Refining Stage is just the beginning for cultivators, but for the bottom-level casual cultivators, it is a lifetime.
