Shangyuque

Chapter 9 The base and multiplier are not that important, what is important is the conversion rate!
The aura of a Qigong practitioner is naturally extraordinary.

You said that practicing Qi with the help of the Great Elixir to break through the realm is a joke among Qi practitioners?
That is also practicing Qi!
As soon as Tang Nianqiu appeared, the casual cultivators who were making trouble and wanting to stay in the special price rooms stopped shouting.

"Fellow Daoist Tang, you guys at Fuyuanju have suddenly raised the prices. This is not a decent thing to do."

Fortunately, there was also a Qi-cultivating cultivator among these wandering cultivators. This Qi-cultivating cultivator stepped forward, stood in front of everyone, and started arguing with Tang Nianqiu.

"Fuyuanju paid a concerted fee of fifty spirit stones, and we don't want to raise the price, but if we don't, Fuyuanju will go bankrupt!"

This is of course nonsense. If Fuyuanju could go bankrupt so easily, the Wang family would have stopped running it long ago. However, Tang Nianqiu at least gave a reason.

"If you think the rooms here are too expensive, you can rent a courtyard yourself. The spiritual eyes in Senior Jiang's garrison are all rented out."

The independent cultivator who stepped forward to take the lead was thrown into a dilemma by Tang Nianqiu's words.

Yes, Jiang was a very greedy guy, he even rented out the spiritual eyes that the red light camera provided him with.

But if I could afford it, why would I live in your Fuyuanju?
"What Qi-inducing methods have you practiced?"

In Huafengju, Buddhist Hongmei was operating the refining furnace and asked without turning his head.

"I have water and fire spiritual roots, and I practice the Qi-inducing Technique common to all Wang family members. Yu'an is a little more special, and he practices the 'Hundred Forgings of Gold and Stone'."

Ms. Hongmei only knew that the Wang family had been passed down for a long time, but she didn't know that the Wang family had been passed down for a thousand years.

He was quite surprised that Yu'an could practice a technique that matched his spiritual roots, and even stopped the action of transforming gold.

"What about the others? Do you know anything about the art of making talismans and refining equipment?"

"From a young age, the clan taught us the following: 'A Brief Explanation of Spiritual Materials of Metal, Stone, Bone, and Wood', 'A Hundred Textile Discourses', 'Identifying Drugs and Poisons', etc. We only learned the basic Qi-inducing Talisman when making talismans.

In the Dao of Refining, I have only heard of refining tools and refining pills. These are things that can only be practiced by the Qi-refining cultivators in the clan."

Zhong Ningyao was a little confused.

"Is this all that your Wang family teaches?"

Hongmei glared at her daughter, and Ningyao's face tightened, and she didn't dare to ask any more questions.

“Okay, then you can start with drawing talismans. When you have mastered the fire control technique and talisman drawing, you can start the next stage of practice.

Ningyao, take them to the backyard to practice fire control first, then practice drawing talismans."

Just as they were about to leave, Hongmei added.

"By the way, just practice with ordinary jute cloth, don't make any mistakes!"

Wang was too cunning. She sent the child to him without teaching him anything in advance, for fear that he would know the family inheritance.

Is this what it means to treat me as your master?
You're treating me like a thief!

To these two cheap apprentices, Hongmei taught them to be generous when necessary and stingy when necessary, saving every penny! —
In the backyard, Yulou sleekly started a flame in the water, which was then extinguished by the water in an instant.

Yu'an, who was standing by, blushed with holding her breath, but there was still nothing on her hand in the water.

"Junior Brother Yu'an, you must concentrate when practicing the fire control technique. As long as you concentrate, you will make progress and slowly you will be able to light a fire."

Zhong Ningyao had never taught an apprentice, so she didn't understand how difficult it was for the gold and earth spiritual roots to start a fire in water.

"Senior Sister Ning Yao, Yu'an's spiritual roots are not very suitable for this kind of practice. Can we change it and let him try it in a normal state?

Let's start with normal spiritual power to make fire, and after success, switch to making fire in water, what do you think?"

There was nothing profound in the basic training, so Yulou thought about letting Yu'an first get the feeling of making fire, and then further refine the control of the flame.

Hearing Yulou's words, Yu'an took his hand out of the water, and instantly, flames rose up.

"Senior Sister, you see, as long as I'm not in the water, I can perform fire control well."

The boy who wanted to take credit spoke excitedly.

Zhong Ningyao scratched her head and asked in confusion.

"Is the influence of spiritual roots so great?"

Yulou said carefully.

“I’m not too sure, but Yu’an doesn’t have a fire spirit root, so he’s already a little short of it.

He was trying to make fire in water, but he didn't have any water spiritual roots, so he was even less capable.

When the two phases are combined, it becomes much more difficult.

By the way, Senior Sister Ning Yao, what is your spiritual root?"

At the end of the conversation, Yulou calmly asked a tentative question.

“I am Fire, Wood, and Gold, but I have more Fire spiritual roots and the least Gold, so I practiced the ‘Ben Mulberry Induction Qi Technique’.

It's a pity that you don't have wood spiritual roots, otherwise you could also cultivate this."

What a good senior sister, with a very pure mind. She told Yulou everything when Yulou asked her a little, and even expressed regret that her Qi-inducing technique was not suitable for Yulou.

"It's okay. The main practice method in the Qi Induction Period is not important. The speed of practice and power will not make a big difference." Yulou said.

The relationship between cultivation level and the technique practiced is a base and a multiplier.

According to the standards of immortal cultivators, the base number corresponding to the Qi Induction Stage is zero to one, and the multiplier corresponding to the Qi Induction Stage's skills is not much higher.

But after practicing Qi and building the foundation, the situation is different.

练气期的基数可以看作1~10甚至1~20，唐念秋之流可能也就有个2或3，练气高阶的王荣远起码也是个十。

Combined with the different influences of skills, magic tools, special secret teachings, etc., and multiplying this base number, the final cultivation and strength will be worlds apart.

For example, Tang Nianqiu, although he broke through to the Qi training stage with the help of the realm-breaking elixir, the martial arts he practiced were quite powerful. He also had a handy magic weapon at hand and secretly prepared a killer weapon or something.

最后，2.5（2或3的均值）×2×1.5×1.25……他的实力就会是十甚至十几。

Of course, if we apply this model to Wang Rongyuan, it would be even more amazing.

However, these are still far from Yulou.

His main task now is to improve himself quickly.

At the second level of Qi Induction, he couldn't even leave Qingxifang alone. To be more precise, he was not allowed.

The road to immortality is long, so we must forge ahead.
-
In fact, Yulou's calculation of the cultivator's strength was already correct, but he still overlooked one point.

This may be related to the fact that he has never experienced a fight between monks.

In the automotive field in Yulou's previous life, there was a term called engine thermal efficiency.

In the world of cultivating immortals, there is an undefined concept which can be regarded as similar to the thermal efficiency of an engine, that is, the conversion rate between the strength of a cultivator and the strength of a fighter.

If calculated using mechanical and simple addition, the combined strength of five Tang Nianqiu is roughly equal to that of one Wang Rongyuan.

But in an actual fight, even if there were twenty Tang Nianqiu standing in front of Wang Rongyuan, Wang Rongyuan would not even take a breath even if the magic weapon was chopped to the point of curling.

This is also the reason why Wang Rongyuan dared to go fishing and wait for the robbers to die!
"stop!"

After flying for more than a thousand miles, Wang Rongyuan finally encountered a fool who was not afraid of death. Instead of smiling, he was so scared that he couldn't even keep his flying magic weapon steady.

He pretended to be stupid enough to attack first unexpectedly!
At first, the flying magic weapon was startled and became unstable, and then Wang Rongyuan landed on the ground in the forest. Because he was too embarrassed, he fell on his butt.

"Hahaha, I finally got it. Big brother, come on, he's just an idiot in the middle stage of Qi Refining!"

"Fellow Daoists, what do you mean?"

Wang Rongyuan struggled to get up from the ground and looked in horror at the three people approaching him rapidly in the sky.

"Hand over everything and we can let you go alive!"

The three Tribulation Cultivators flew to a place about a hundred meters in front of Wang Rongyuan, and the one with the lowest cultivation level spoke.

Even though this one has the lowest cultivation level, he has reached the eighth level of Qi training. The other two, one has reached the tenth level of Qi training, and one has reached the great perfection of Qi training!

Wang Rongyuan is at the tenth level of Qi training. It looks like he is fighting one against three, and he is overwhelmingly strong.

But.is it really so?
"Please let me go. I am an inner disciple of the Dripping Cave, a vassal sect of the Red Lantern Sect. If you rob me, the Red Lantern Sect and the Dripping Cave will not let you go!"

Hong Dengzhao is one of the ten sects. The sect has special skills and is renowned for its fire skills. Most of its disciples have fire spiritual roots.

Dripping Cave is a vassal of Hong Dengzhao. As the name suggests, most of the disciples of this sect practice water magic.

Fire magic, water magic, has Uncle Rong Yuan revealed his true identity?
"Hahaha, a dripping cave? My elder brother is an inner sect disciple of Miaofeng Mountain. Would he be afraid of a dripping cave like you?"

fake!

These people are also shaking me!
"Idiot, are you crazy?" the cultivator who had reached perfection in Qi training said angrily.

Really, this guy who is at the eighth level of Qi training is just an idiot!
There is nothing special about the skills of the disciples of Miaofeng Mountain, but they mostly use needles, thread, and cloth as tools - be careful with the needle!

“Brother, I want him to see the situation clearly and give up struggling.

Hurry up and hand over everything, we can give you a quick death, otherwise hehe~"

Wang Rongyuan's face was full of indignation and he cursed.

"The disciples of Miaofeng Mountain still want to practice robbery cultivation. I will report you to the Immortal Alliance!"

After cursing, Wang Rongyuan used a slightly clumsy earth-diving technique and drilled directly into the ground.

"You still want to run away in the middle stage of Qi training? Dream on!"

The disciple from Miaofeng Mountain who was at the eleventh level of Qi training snorted coldly, then summoned a spirit shuttle and headed straight for the place where Wang Rongyuan disappeared!

The other two robbery cultivators also reacted quickly, quickly entering a state of fighting and looking for Wang Rongyuan's trace.
