Plants vs. Cultivation.

Chapter 5: Qi Refining Method
After receiving Gu Mo's affirmative answer, Yao Shifeng's smile became even wider. As a noble of Da Xia, he knew very well that if he wanted to accomplish anything, he couldn't do it alone, especially as he was a menial disciple.

If he possessed medium or even high-quality spiritual roots, he would not need to make friends with anyone. The sect would provide him with enough resources to help him practice.

Unfortunately, Yao Shifeng was only detected to have the lowest grade of inferior spiritual roots, a result that Yao Shifeng obviously could not accept. In the mortal world, he was a high-ranking noble, but after entering the world of cultivating immortals, he became the lowest grade of menial disciple. He was unwilling to accept this.

Therefore, it is not without precedent that Yao Shifeng wants to climb up step by step, and eventually become an inner disciple of a sect from a menial disciple.

During this period, Yao Shifeng studied the cases of those disciples who emerged from the menial jobs in the library. Considering the current conditions, he finally chose the plan of making friends with his fellow townsmen.

Canteen private room.

Yao Shifeng, Gu Mo, Hu Hai, Wu Jinfei and Chu Feifei sat together. After Gu Mo agreed to join, Yao Shifeng invited everyone to have dinner and get to know each other.

After some conversation, Gu Mo also had a general impression of the three people other than Yao Shifeng. Hu Hai was a short boy who gave people a feeling of inferiority, which must be related to his background.

Wu Jinfei is the opposite of Hu Hai. He is a big guy and is quite talkative. His previous aura detection was also at an upper-middle level.

Chu Feifei was the only female among the five people. She was beautiful and, at the age of fifteen or sixteen, already had a well-proportioned figure. Hu Hai and Wu Jinfei would glance at each other from time to time.

"Everyone, I have some cultivation experience here that I can share with you." After a brief acquaintance, Yao Shifeng spoke.

He had his own plans for forming such a small group, and if he wanted to gain profits from this small group, then initial investment was essential.

Hearing Yao Shifeng sharing his experience in cultivation, everyone turned their attention to him. What is the most important thing now? It is naturally cultivation. Cultivation is everything.

Although the sect would have senior brothers in the Qi Refining stage to teach them, that kind of rote teaching would not provide detailed insights into cultivation.

"An elder of my clan once joined a sect and left behind some experience in cultivation." Seeing everyone's eyes looking over, Yao Shifeng gave a brief introduction.

The reason why Yao Shifeng is a powerful and noble family in Daxia is all thanks to the elder who joined the sect. Although his elder was only an outer disciple and has passed away for more than a hundred years, the legacy he left behind still allows Yao Shifeng's family to firmly sit among the powerful and noble.

Among them, the cultivation experience left by the elder is a very important part of the inheritance. With the help of this cultivation experience, Yao Shifeng was able to become one of the best among the menial disciples.

Unfortunately, that elder was just an ordinary outer disciple, and he had passed away for many years and had no connection with the sect anymore. Otherwise, Yao Shifeng could still rely on that elder.

Taking a deep breath, Yao Shifeng began to tell the cultivation experience left by his family elders. This cultivation experience would definitely be an extremely precious treasure in the hands of a casual cultivator. Its preciousness would be reduced in the sect, but it was still very valuable for menial disciples.

"I see!"

Listening to Yao Shifeng's story, Gu Mo had a clear idea of ​​the Qi Refining stage practice. After completing the process of drawing Qi into the body, the next goal of practice was to continuously accumulate spiritual energy. Then, using the accumulated spiritual energy to open up the meridians and complete the small circulation.

The number of meridians that need to be opened up in the small Zhoutian varies according to the different exercises, but all the exercises in the Qi Refining Stage follow the rule of nine small Zhoutian, three middle Zhoutian and one large Zhoutian. Completing a small Zhoutian means successfully entering the first level of the Qi Refining Stage. Completing three small Zhoutian means entering the third level of the Qi Refining Stage. After that, there is a small bottleneck from the early to the middle stage of Qi Refining. After integrating the three small Zhoutian and completing a middle Zhoutian, one can enter the middle stage of Qi Refining.

Completing three middle circulations is the ninth level of Qi training, and integrating the three middle circulations into one big circulation is the great perfection of Qi training.

Looking at the thoughtful expressions on everyone's faces, Yao Shifeng smiled slightly. He took out the gift of cultivation experience, so this small group was stable. And he only talked about a small part of this experience, and he would release it bit by bit later.

As Yao Shifeng finished his explanation, everyone came back to their senses and expressed their gratitude to Yao Shifeng.

"Our current task is to improve our cultivation as quickly as possible. We will meet again in a week, and then we can exchange ideas on cultivation." Yao Shifeng waved his hand.

"This Yao Shifeng is not a simple person." Returning to his own cabin, Gu Mo recalled Yao Shifeng's previous performance and said to himself.

However, this is nothing. Others have given us valuable experience in cultivation, and Gu Mo doesn't mind giving something in exchange.

He took out the sunflowers from the black fog space and looked at the sky. It was already evening. Because the sunflowers had been placed in the black fog space by Gu Mo that day, no solar essence had condensed on the sunflowers.

This also made Gu Mo realize that sunflowers could not condense the essence of the sun if they were placed in the black fog space, and could only be placed outside.

"Then, let's start practicing."

Gu Mo took out the Qi Gathering Technique issued by the sect and read it carefully. Time passed quickly as Gu Mo concentrated on practicing.

Soon a week had passed, and today was the time for everyone to gather together again. During this week, Gu Mo's practice had made great progress.

All this is thanks to the sunflower. That one portion of sun essence is equivalent to Gu Mo's two days of hard practice. The so-called hard practice is 12 hours a day, and only practice for more than 8 hours can be called hard practice.

One portion of the sun's essence condensed by the sunflower is equal to the progress of Gu Mo's two days of hard practice, and that portion of the sun's essence can be refined in the blink of an eye.

To put it in a more understandable way, Zhou Gumo's cultivation speed during this period is equivalent to that of cultivators with inferior and upper-grade spiritual roots. If the cultivation speed of inferior spiritual roots is set at 1, then the cultivation speed of inferior spiritual roots is 2~4. The reason why it is not a fixed value is that even if they are both inferior spiritual roots, there are still differences between them.

But what is certain is that the cultivation speed of low-grade spiritual roots is at least twice that of inferior spiritual roots. This is only low-grade spiritual roots. If it is a medium-grade spiritual root, the speed will be 2 to 5 times. High-grade spiritual roots can even be 7 times that of inferior spiritual roots.

This is just the basic increase speed. If it is combined with powerful skills, spiritual places, and elixirs, the speed will be even faster.

With the help of the sun essence condensed by sunflowers, Gu Mo reached the cultivation speed of lower-grade spiritual roots. It is no exaggeration to say that this is equivalent to changing Gu Mo's spiritual roots.

This effect alone is enough to prove the preciousness of this sunflower. However, during this week, Gu Mo also discovered other uses for this sun essence.
