Chapter 4 The Difficulty of Cultivation

  In the Blackwood Walled City, the starry night was still silent.   Lu Qingfeng sat up and looked at his hands through the hazy moonlight, the Yellow Dragon Pill and the Rescue Pill had not been brought to reality.   Then he opened the attribute panel.   Name: Lu Qingfeng [Real Body   Race: Human   Camp: None   Title: None   Cultivation: None   Level: 0 (0/1)   Longevity: 16/68   Root Bone: 1   Merit: Unknown   Karma: Unknown   Technique: Huangting Jing, 1st level (uninitiated) [Characteristics: Diffraction (1st level); Unification of the Laws (1st level); Karma Elimination (1st level)]; Yan Yang Jing, 1st level (introductory) [in derivation];   Technique: None   Avatar: None   Equipment: None   Alchemy: "The First Explanation of Alchemy" (uninitiated) [in derivation].   Aside from the first layer of the Yan Yang Sutra, which had never turned from Introductory to Introductory, the Cultivation and Levels were still empty, and the column of Internal Breath didn't appear either.   "So it seems that the game's mastery of techniques such as gongfu and alchemy can be brought directly into reality. But the level cultivation in the game will not be synchronized with the level cultivation in reality."   Lu Qingfeng finally figured it out.   This was similar to the setting of reincarnation and rebirth in The Flood - the memory aspect could be carried, but the physical body level, such as internal breath and cultivation, could not be synchronized.   "So it's good enough."   Lu Qingfeng suddenly lowered his head and buried himself in the darkness.   No one could know how big the fall from the sunrise-like era of the twenty-first century, crossing over to the depressing environment of a near-slave society like the Blackwood Wall was, and how big the impact on Lu Qingfeng was.   Lu Qingfeng was optimistic.   When he first crossed over, he had the past life's persistent wisdom, he could speak in March and run in June. But when he was four years old, his mother died in childbirth, and he saw the coldness and darkness of Blackwood Village for the first time.   After that, after gradually growing up and understanding the danger of Blackwood Village, as well as the rumors of the so-called 'Immortals' of Gui Zhen Sect from on high, Lu Qingfeng became even more cautious.   From being lively and cheerful, he became a man of few words.   He didn't dare to be more and more regimented because he wasn't alone.   If he did something out of the ordinary, or said something out of the ordinary, there was no guarantee that the next day, the rumors would not spread from Blackwood Cottage to Huangzhi Mountain, which in turn would drag his father, brother, and sister into accompanying him to their deaths.   "From today onwards, everything is different!"   Lu Qingfeng raised his head, and in the darkness, a pair of eyes were exceptionally bright.   ......   After confirming the correspondence between the game and reality, Lu Qingfeng once again entered the game.   "It took four Yellow Dragon Pills to make me barely comprehend the Qi Sense, and after that some cultivation contributed another 4 experience points. I don't know how much experience value one Yellow Dragon Dan can provide after comprehending the Qi Sense."   "I only have one Yellow Dragon Pill left in my hand, together with the existing 2 experience points it might be possible to raise my level to level 2."   In the green stone talisman, Lu Qingfeng took out the last Yellow Dragon Dan and directly took it.   The Yan Yang Sutra operated and the weak breath in his body moved with it, continuously absorbing the medicinal power and slowly growing.   Only when the Yellow Dragon Dan medicinal power completely disappeared, did Lu Qingfeng stop cultivating.   [Level: 1 (5/5)]   "Three experience points."   "True."   "Beginning to comprehend the Qi Sense is the most difficult, four Yellow Dragon Pills is only 5 experience points. But after initiation, just one Yellow Dragon Pill has increased 3 experience points!"   Lu Qingfeng's heart was relieved.   In that case, even if his qualifications were a bit worse, as long as he had enough Yellow Dragon Pills, he would always be able to pile up his cultivation.   "It's getting late, let's go back and get some sleep first, tomorrow we will officially start practicing the Yan Yang Scripture!"   Exploring Black Sand Town, Cultivating the Yan Yang Sutra ......   Lu Qingfeng gauged that it was almost dawn and exited the game, trying to calm down before falling asleep.   Without realizing it, the night passed.   ......   Early the next morning, the sunrise rose once again.   The sunlight shone through the gaps in the dark wood and shone into the dark wood house.   For some reason, last night had obviously tossed and turned for a long time, and I'm afraid that it was already close to the early hours of the morning when he returned to reality and went to sleep. However, Lu Qingfeng did not feel the fatigue of sleep deprivation at all.   On the contrary, he was energized.   "Could it be that the game still has the effect of replacing sleep?" Lu Qingfeng couldn't help but think. It was just that when he got offline last night, he was clearly exhausted.   Shaking his head, he didn't think about it.   "Qingyu, get up."   With a roll, he got up from the bed and called out to Lu Qingyu. Lu Qingfeng pulled up the attribute panel on one side and began to wash up on the other.   Name: Lu Qingfeng [True Body   Race: Human   Formation: None   Title: None   Cultivation: None   Level: 0 (0/1)   Longevity: 16/68   Root Bone: 1   Merit: Unknown   Karma: Unknown   Technique: Huangting Jing, 1st level (uninitiated) [Characteristics: Diffraction (1st level); Unification of the Laws (1st level); Karma Elimination (1st level)]; Yan Yang Jing, 1st level (introductory) [in derivation];   Technique: None   Avatar: None   Equipment: None   Alchemy: "The First Explanation of Alchemy" (Not yet Introductory) [Under Derivation].   The attribute panel appeared in response, and only then was Lu Qingfeng convinced that everything last night was not an illusion or a dream.   "Next, cultivate the Yan Yang Scripture while dealing with farming during the day. Enter The Flood at night and feel out this game."   Lu Qingfeng poured two handfuls of cold water on his face and grew more and more energized.   "Qingyu, get up!"   Lu Qingyu was still struggling on the bed, Lu Qingfeng yanked her up and pushed the little girl to wash up.   After washing, the siblings first went to the Chengyang River seven or eight miles to the south to pick up water. After about two trips, they then pulled out the weeds in the ground one by one, after which it was midday.   The two men came with coarse grain cakes and hot water.   Lu Qingfeng took out the coarse grain cake from his bosom, broke off the majority of it and handed it to Qingyu, then gulped down his own small half of the coarse grain cake.   "Big brother, I can't eat this much."   Lu Qingyu wolfed down the remaining small half piece and stuffed it into Lu Qingfeng's mouth, yelling as he did so, "Big brother's saliva is all stained on it, I'm not going to eat it."   Lu Qingfeng opened his mouth and swallowed the coarse grain cake into his mouth.   Seeing this, Lu Qingyu clapped his hands, and his eyes smiled into a crescent moon.   In the past, she always felt that the coarse grain cake she ate at noon was bigger than the one she made, until she realized that the other half in her big brother's hand was much smaller than hers, then she never ate more.   Occasionally, Lu Qingfeng wanted to take advantage of his sister's inattention to share more with her, but she was the first to realize it by Lu Qingyu, and then the remaining small half was fed to Lu Qingfeng.   "Qingyu, do you think following big brother is bitter?"   Lu Qingfeng took a big gulp of half a bamboo tube of cold boiled water and looked at Lu Qingyu and asked.   "It's not bitter!"   "There is no one in the entire Blackwood Walled City who loves me more than Big Brother! Little Flower, Da Ju, they are bullied by their elder brother and younger brother everyday, they don't know how much they envy me!"   Lu Qingyu's two eyes were like stars, and her small face was full of radiance.   "Little girl so easily satisfied, in the future don't be abducted by someone with a few kind words."   Lu Qingfeng teased.   "I won't!"   "I want to be with big brother for the rest of my life."   Lu Qingyu grunted as she wrinkled her nose.   Lu Qingfeng smiled and rubbed Lu Qingyu's little head, thinking about those people who kept coming to the door to say marriage these days, a trace of coldness rose in his heart.   "Qingyu, big brother had a strange encounter two days ago, and in the future, he will cultivate every day. How about you keep an eye out for big brother and call out to me when someone comes?"   Lu Qingfeng ruffled the two yellow hair braids at the back of Qingyu's head and discussed.   He spent time with Qingyu, he couldn't hide the matter of cultivation from the little girl, and there was no need to hide it. The three siblings depended on each other, Qingyu and Qingshan were almost brought up by him, there was no one more trustworthy than them in this world.   "Big brother is going to cultivate too?"   "Yes, yes, yes!"   "I'll watch out for big brother!"   Lu Qingyu shouted out in surprise.   Then realizing that it was too loud, he shrunk his neck and ghostly stood up again to look around, seeing that no one was nearby, before he patted his chest and tiptoed up to Lu Qingfeng's ear and whispered, "Big brother, I won't say anything if you secretly cultivate. When you've practiced, we'll go to Huang Zhi Mountain to save second brother!"   The little girl didn't say anything on her lips, but in reality, she was remembering her second brother Lu Qingshan every day.   "Good boy."   Lu Qingfeng smiled, then sat down and couldn't wait to start practicing the Yan Yang Jing.   Lu Qingyu saw this and got up, enough to look in all directions with his head, seriously looking at the wind.   Lu Qingfeng knew Qingyu's nature, and at the moment, he was in the middle of the wheat field, covered by the wheat stalks, so he was not worried about being discovered.   Currently.   Lu Qingfeng mastered two gong methods.   Although the Yellow Court Sutra was a Dao Ancestor level gongfu, it was more of a supportive gongfu that could not directly raise cultivation levels.   Therefore, the only thing Lu Qingfeng could cultivate for the time being was the Yan Yang Jing.   This was his first time cultivating in reality.   Without the help of the Yellow Dragon Pill, Lu Qingfeng truly realized how poor his qualification was-   For an entire afternoon, he had failed to comprehend the Qi Sense.   Even though the first layer of the Yan Yang Sutra had already been initiated, and even though he had already comprehended Qi Sense once in the game, he was still stuck at this level.   "This-"   After sitting in a disk for an afternoon and being slow to grasp the Qi Sense, Lu Qingfeng was a bit distracted, and his legs were even too numb to move.   Cultivating in reality was more difficult than he had imagined.   "I have experience in comprehending qi sense, theoretically, with a little bit of qualification, one would quickly catch the qi sense."   "But it didn't."   "It seems that Root Bone 1 is indeed a very poor qualification. If you want to achieve something, you either have to suffer with time, one day if one afternoon doesn't work, ten days if one day doesn't work! I can comprehend Qi Sense with the help of the Yellow Dragon Pill, there's no reason I can't do it myself."   "If I can't, I'll learn how to refine the Yellow Dragon Dan in the game!"   The qualifications were poor beyond imagination, but Lu Qingfeng was not frustrated. As long as there was The Flood, nothing was difficult.   Opening his eyes.   Qing Yu was still looking out, meticulously serious. Turning back, he happened to see Lu Qingfeng waking up.   "Big brother, you're awake!"   Lu Qingyu jumped to Lu Qingfeng's front in three or two steps, his eyes stared at Lu Qingfeng's face and asked expectantly, "How's the cultivation going? When will you be able to go and rescue second brother?"   "Cultivation is not that fast."   Lu Qingfeng shook his head.   "Is it hard to cultivate?"   Lu Qingyu cocked his head with a puzzled expression.   "When Qingyu grows up in a couple years, big brother will teach you to cultivate, and you'll know if it's hard." Lu Qingfeng massaged his legs, revitalizing his qi, blood and muscles.   Lu Qingyu heard this, but his eyes were rounded and his small mouth slightly opened-   "Big brother, I can also cultivate?"   She had never known that girls could also cultivate!   Every year, when the Returning Truth Sect came to Blackwood Walled City to select disciples and handymen, they were all selected from boys between the ages of twelve and sixteen.   Lu Qingyu had thought that only the likes of her elder and second brothers could cultivate.   "Of course you can!"   "But Qingyu has to learn to read and write first, as well as the various meridians and acupoints, after memorizing them, he will be able to cultivate in another two years."   Lu Qingfeng laughed.   He had The Flood, and there would definitely be no shortage of various inheritances in the future. As long as he got through the toughest introductions in the early stages, he would be able to achieve something if he cultivated step by step.   At that time, whether it was Qing Yu or Qing Shan, he wouldn't let them continue to stay in this cramped place of Blackwood Walled City.   It was natural to cultivate together.   If he embarked on the path of cultivation and became a loner instead, wouldn't it be putting the cart before the horse.
