Original God: I can earn experience points

Chapter 240: Concentration Technique (Two in One)

"Cousin? That Bai Xiao is your cousin? You didn't rely on connections to be a guard at the Qun Yu Pavilion, did you?"

Paimon crossed his arms and looked at Zhenhai with suspicion.

"What? Cousin, don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense, you must have heard it wrong just now!"

Done.

Zhenhai didn't give Paimeng a chance to refute, and quickly opened the door to go in to find Baixiao.

"What? Why are you so flustered? It's just that 'There are only two or three Moras here'!"

Paimon complained speechlessly.

"Well, that's a strange metaphor."

Li Qiuzhi didn't expect that Liyue had a similar story as "There is no silver here, but there is a tad bit of silver". Could it be that this is the similarity in the development of human society in different worlds?
"Hehe, everyone uses this to describe someone who wants to hide something but ends up revealing something."

Paimon said with a smile, his hands behind his back.

Not long after, Zhenhai came out with Ningguang's secretary Baixiao. She looked at the few people, waved and said hello, then said:

"If you want to find Miss Shen He, she went out for morning exercises in the early morning when it was almost light. She said you can go to the top of Tianheng Mountain to find her."

Bai Xiao conveyed what he had learned.

"Tianheng Mountain? Yeah, I see."

Li Qiuzhi nodded. He didn't expect Shen He to go out so early. He was worthy of being a disciple of the immortal family. He was really self-disciplined.

"Then let's go to Tianheng Mountain now." Paimeng said with a smile.

"Ah."

Ying lifted the golden hair on the side of her face and spoke lightly while tapping her chin.

Tianheng Mountain is not far from Qun Yu Pavilion. One can even create a wind field on the Qun Yu Pavilion to rise to a higher place and fly directly to Tianheng Mountain.

This will save a lot of time climbing up and traveling.

This is what they thought and what they did.

"Wow, I see Liyue Harbor. There are so many densely packed houses and buildings!"

Paimon grabbed the white ribbon on her dress to prevent herself from being blown away by the air currents in the sky.

At this moment, she looked at Liyue Harbor over there with some excitement through the towering peaks of Tianheng Mountain.

"Okay, we've seen it many times, let's fly to Tianheng Mountain quickly."

Li Qiuzhi drove the wind element to blow the three people forward.

I have to say that the wind elemental force is indeed very useful, although it is not an elemental force known for its power.

However, it is particularly useful in assisting exploration, especially when used in conjunction with the Wings of Wind.

According to his current control over the wind element, he could probably make the wind field rise about thirty meters by himself.

Together with Ying, they can fly about a hundred meters on the spot, which is why he is confident that he can fly to Tianheng Mountain smoothly.

After all, it has the support of wind element and will not slowly decline. The only disadvantage is that it consumes a lot of physical strength.

Of course, with his expertise in "full of life", Li Qiuzhi can still hold on longer than ordinary people.

If you want to consume less energy, fly higher and faster, you can only improve the "Wind Element Control" skill.

Unfortunately, I just upgraded "Form Concealment" to the maximum level yesterday, which consumed a lot of experience points, so I can't invest them in "Wind Element Control" for the time being.

anyway.

Ying is able to control the seven elements, but they have been in Liyue for so long and have yet to encounter the Seven-Sky Statue.

Therefore, she did not resonate and awaken the elemental power of rock.

It seems that next time I go to the Adventurer's Guild to accept a commission, I will have to ask Catherine where the Seven Days Statue is in the wild.

The earlier Ying awakens the rock element, the faster he can become familiar with and control it.

While Li Qiuzhi was thinking, they soon approached Tianheng Mountain.

Most of the mountain is covered with dense vegetation, while in some places there are barren rocky mountains with some white iron ore and iron ore exposed there.

These ores are difficult to mine and are not worth much. Even adventurers rarely climb up the mountain to mine them.

Of course, if it is a crystal mine, that’s a different matter.

Li Qiuzhi and his team landed on this rocky mountain. Tianheng Mountain was higher than they had imagined and they had no way of flying directly to the top of the mountain.

So I had to fold up my wings of wind and continue walking along the path.

Fortunately, this place was already halfway up the mountain. After walking for more than ten minutes, Li Qiuzhi and his team reached the top of the mountain. There were no tall plants here, but instead it was covered with short green grass.

The girl, whose long white hair was braided in the middle, was sitting cross-legged on a flat stone, meditating with her eyes closed.

Looking more closely, the stone was too smooth and flat, and it seemed to have been cut by a weapon.

"It's Shen He, let's go say hello."

As she said this, the little Paimon wearing the crown was about to fly forward to say good morning, but at this time Li Qiuzhi quickly pulled her back and said:

"Wait a minute, Shen He is obviously meditating and practicing, let's not disturb him for now."

"Well, that seems to be the case."

Paimeng put his index finger on his lower lip and observed for a while and found that Shen He was extremely quiet, as if he had blended into the natural environment.

It seems that he is indeed practicing.

Ying stood on a piece of dirt without any grass.

The golden hair tips and skirt hem were slightly lifted by the breeze from the front. The calf lines wrapped in over-the-knee boots were symmetrical and soft, and the snow-white thighs exposed above the boot openings were also very dazzling.

She also closed her eyes, as if feeling something.

After a few seconds, Li Qiuzhi saw the breeze blowing towards him suddenly stop, and the faint fluctuation of wind elemental power came from Ying's body.

She opened her eyes, revealing a pair of amber pupils filled with excitement.

"What's wrong? Did you suddenly have some realization?" Li Qiuzhi asked curiously.

"Well, I just felt the rhythm of the wind on the top of the mountain. Now I should be more proficient in using the element of wind."

Ying tapped her chin.

"You are here."

Shen He, who was wearing a chest-covering short top over a black leather jumpsuit, also felt something a little unusual in the environment, so he stopped meditating, stood up from the flat stone, looked at Li Qiuzhi and the others and said.

"Hey, good morning, Shen He. I hope we didn't disturb your practice."

Paimeng waved his hand and flew forward. Li Qiuzhi and Ying followed slowly behind him, stopping a little in front of Shen He.

"I have enough time to meditate, so it's not a problem." Shen He shook his head slightly, indicating that it was not a big problem, and continued, "You are here to learn how to train your mental strength, right?"

"Yes." Li Qiuzhi nodded with a smile.

Although it was mainly Li Qiuzhi who wanted to learn this, since Ying and Paimeng were already here, it would be natural for them to learn it as well. It wouldn't make any difference whether they taught a few or not.

"Then let's start now. Find a place to sit cross-legged."

Shen He folded her hands under her chest, her flat and smooth belly faintly visible through the black silk fabric of the bodysuit.

"Sit cross-legged? Do I have to meditate like you?" Paimon touched his hair and asked puzzledly.

"Yes, the method I taught you to train your mental strength is called 'Mind Concentration Technique'. Even a river fish with no talent can practice it, so it shouldn't be difficult for you."

Shen He sat down on the flat stone again, while Li Qiuzhi, Ying and little Paimeng all sat on the ground.

Ying even folded the hem of her skirt twice and placed it under her hips wrapped in white bloomer shorts before sitting cross-legged, otherwise the sharp tips of the grass leaves would prick her hips and thighs and would be a little itchy.

After getting ready, several people looked at Shen He with some anticipation and listened to her subsequent explanation.

"The main principle of 'Concentration Technique' is to gather and condense mental power. In this process, mental power will increase due to repeated training and become more 'solid'."

Shen He is not good at teaching others, but she also learned this technique under the guidance of her master when she first started practicing.

So now she just needs to repeat in similar words what her master explained at that time.

Li Qiuzhi and Ying all nodded. "Concentration Technique" is easy to understand from the name.

"Then let's take the first step."

After Shen He saw that everyone understood clearly, he continued to speak:

"The first step, as Master said, is to block out distracting thoughts in your mind and enter a state of calm body and mind without emotional fluctuations. Only in this way can you easily perceive your own spiritual power."

This step should not be difficult. When her master taught her, she only took two minutes to do it.

"Well, let's try."

Li Qiuzhi, who was sitting cross-legged, nodded his head lightly, and closed his eyes at the same time as Ying and Xiao Paimeng, trying to block out the distracting thoughts in his mind.

Before I started, I thought it would be easy.

But in fact, the more Li Qiuzhi wanted to get rid of those distracting thoughts, such as Fischl's body was so soft and he wanted to touch Ying's thigh, the more they popped up.

For example, the soft touch of Fischl's calves and ankles through her black semi-transparent stockings.

The more I try to get rid of these thoughts, the more they become like a surging flood, with no way to contain them!

Half an hour later, Li Qiuzhi slowly opened his eyes and sighed silently.

He found that letting go of distracting thoughts seemed to be a daunting challenge for him.

This has nothing to do with willpower, because distracting thoughts are also part of human thoughts. Once you get used to their existence, it will take a lot of effort to change them.

It probably won’t take a day or half a month to succeed.

He looked around and found that Ying next to him was still closing her eyes to try to calm her thoughts. Her calm expression seemed to have some effect?
And the little Paimon next to her was already lying on the ground, his eyes dull as if he was spinning in circles, and it was obvious that he had also failed.

Having had experience, Li Qiuzhi knew without thinking that as soon as Paimeng closed his eyes, all that would pop up in his head would be various kinds of delicious food.

Looking at so many delicious foods, I probably don’t know which one to choose, and I’m simply confused.

After another half an hour, Ying finally slowly opened her eyes.

"How is it? Did you succeed?" Li Qiuzhi asked curiously.

After closing his eyes for so long, he felt that it was no surprise that there should be some results.

"Hmm, I seem to feel spiritual power, invisible and intangible, like some kind of 'force field'."

Ying stuck out her pink tongue tip and slightly moistened her dry upper and lower lips.

"What about you?" she asked Li Qiuzhi.

"Well, I was overthinking a lot and it didn't work." Li Qiuzhi replied with a helpless shrug.

"Humph, idiot!"

Ying rolled her eyes at him with disdain. They ate, lived, traveled and went on adventures together, so she knew exactly what kind of person this guy was.

I was just thinking about the girl's soft, white body under her clothes.

"I failed too. All I saw just now were delicious food. How can I bear to block them all?"

Paimon sighed as he floated in the air.

Ying held his forehead helplessly. These two guys were essentially the same in their love for something, to the point where they were completely defenseless.

So it would be strange if you could successfully master the "Concentration Technique"!

"Master once said that mortals are concerned with the mundane world, so it is normal for them to fail due to many distracting thoughts. If you really can't succeed, you can use the 'Spirit Calming Talisman' to assist."

Shen He saw the situation of several people.

Although it didn't happen as she had imagined that all three of them could succeed easily.

But she also knows that living in a big city with so many distractions, it may be difficult to calm down.

So she planned to use additional auxiliary means for those who were not successful.

"'Soul Calming Talisman'. Just hearing the name sounds like it's very useful. Let's try it out!"

When Paimon heard that he still had hope, he excitedly clenched his fist in the air and spoke quickly.

"Ah."

Shen He stood up and took out two "calming talismans" he had made before from the Eye of God.

They were rectangular ice-blue in color, as if they were made entirely of ice element, a thin sheet.

"Ms. Shen He, how do I use this?"

Li Qiuzhi and Xiao Paimeng each took a "calming talisman" and asked.

"Just stick it on your forehead and it will work."

The sunlight was not too scorching, but it shone on Shen He's delicate white skin, which was revealed by the diamond-shaped hollows on both sides of her waist and hips in her black leather jumpsuit, with a faint reflection.

Li Qiuzhi followed Shen He's instructions and stuck the "calming talisman" on his forehead. Uh, it felt like playing a zombie.

next second.

Just as Shen He said, the "calming talisman" took effect, and a cool energy surged into his mind.

I felt like my consciousness was placed in a silent refrigerator, and all distracting thoughts were quieted.

This "calming talisman" seems to have the effect of healing mental injuries, but it's a bit of a waste to just use it to block out distracting thoughts.

No wonder Shen He didn't take it out at the beginning. After all, if he could do it, there would be no need to waste it.

Ah, it’s a bit frustrating to think this way, and I’ve let Shen He down.

"The first step has been completed. Next, try to gather and condense your mental power." Shen He continued to speak to Li Qiuzhi and the others in a tone without any emotion.

After being able to sense mental power, this step is not difficult. After trying a few times, everyone was able to do it.

[Skills learned: Concentration Level 1 (1/1000)]

Looking at the prompts that popped up on the character panel, Li Qiuzhi knew that he had gotten started, and he could upgrade his level by investing experience points.

In this way, I finally learned a skill to improve my mental strength.

"Thank you, Shen He. Is there anything you can do for us as a thank you?"

Paimon seemed very happy after learning a skill other than the magical flying with phantom limbs that he was born with, and he took the initiative to thank Shen He.

This is very rare for little Paimon.
