For Zheng Fa, the ultimate goal of practicing <Spirit Mountain Method> is not to make money or to gain a high status, but to do research.

It is not just the practice of <Spirit Mountain Method> that can create the Spiritual Qi environment.

Just talking about the practice <Spirit Mountain Method> itself, he also regarded it as a very important experiment.

Zheng Fa feels like he is connected to Rainbow Mountain through two spiritual talismans, forming a huge cycle.

The spiritual power in his Dantian follows the connection in this the Unseen, flows into his Rainbow Mountain, follows the Earth Vein in the mountain, and flows into his Dantian.

When he went out, the spiritual power that had been condensed in his Dantian for a long time was extremely dense, like mercury.

And when this spiritual power returned to Dantian, it had turned into Yunxia, or in other words, it had turned into Spiritual Qi.

Zheng Fa observed this scene carefully.

For people with the Xuanwei Realm, absorbing Spiritual Qi and turning it into spiritual power is a natural thing.

But Zheng Fa who have received modern education will always ask one more reason than Xuanwei Realm people - why can Spiritual Qi turn into spiritual power?

What is the difference between spiritual power and Spiritual Qi?

In fact, he already has a crude conjecture, which if expressed by an equation is:

Spiritual power=Spiritual Qi+Divine Soul+movement trajectory determined by meridians

This is actually not a conjecture, but a rough summary of his cultivation process - in essence, Xuanwei Realm's cultivation is the process of absorbing Spiritual Qi, and then using Divine Soul to lead Spiritual Qi to flow along certain meridians, and finally store it in the body.

This conjecture itself is not difficult, but Zheng Fa feels it is very important - if he understands this, then he has seen through the essence of the Xuanwei Realm and Cultivation Method.

To put it more broadly, he could even say that he was exploring the essence of cultivation.

If you think about it further, Zheng Fa might be able to create the Cultivation Method that suits you best through this exploration of its essence - just like after discovering magnetism and electricity, you can try to build a generator.

Now practicing Spirit Mountain Method is a verification of this conjecture - by observing how his spiritual power becomes Spiritual Qi, he can understand whether his idea is partially correct.

What makes Zheng Fa a little surprised is that the Spiritual Qi formed in his Dantian are indeed no longer under the control of his Divine Soul, and they no longer have the feeling of being able to control them with their fingers.

In other words, Spiritual Qi lacks his Divine Soul compared to his spiritual power, which partially validates his idea.

Even through Spirit Mountain Method, Zheng Fa, another equation can be obtained:

Spiritual Qi=The movement trajectory determined by spiritual power-Divine Soul+Spirit Vein.

He opened his eyes, with some joy in his eyes.

Although it was only a small verification of a very simple conjecture, he was very happy to have such a harvest when he first started practicing <Spirit Mountain Method>.

"What's wrong? Is it done?"

Seeing him laughing, Old Man Bai asked quickly.

Whether Zheng Fa can successfully practice <Spirit Mountain Method> is a big deal for them both.

Zheng Fa looked around with silver light in his eyes.

By analogy, in <Spirit Mountain Method>, Zheng Fa plays a role like a power supply, and the Rainbow Mountain range is a large circuit board - responsible for converting spiritual power into Spiritual Qi.

He is now nothing more than Seventh Layer of Qi Refinement Realm, and the Spiritual Qi he can transform is extremely thin and can only affect a space less than ten meters in radius.

This is also normal.

According to the record of <Spirit Mountain Method>, the Spiritual Qi environment created by the Seventh Layer of Qi Refinement Realm is only enough for a few people to practice, and at most they can only practice to Qi Refinement First Layer...

But now, this is enough for Old Man Bai to get started.

"Don't you feel the change?"

Old Man Bai shook his head blankly and looked around. "Nothing has changed."

"There has been a change." Tang Lingwu on the side suddenly said, "My mobile phone lost signal just now, and it is now turned off."

Zheng Fa was stunned and took out his mobile phone.

The screen of his mobile phone was also black, as if some unknown malfunction had occurred.

He looked at Old Man Bai.

Old Man Bai was holding his mobile phone and shaking his head at him.

"This is, Spiritual Qi can interfere with electronic equipment?"

Zheng Fa frowned and said.

"It's not just interference. If it's just interference, it means the signal performance is not right." Old Man Bai shook his head and said, "It's turned off. It seems that even the circuit inside has some problems because of Spiritual Qi."

Zheng Fa Hearing this, he couldn't help but think of his previous doubts.

If the development of the Xuanwei Realm and Mathematics is a bit outrageous, it is because it is not intuitive enough.

The electromagnetic induction itself is actually very intuitive - especially for monks who know Thunder Method.

They have extremely strong sensing capabilities and can control large amounts of electrical energy.

Even if it is a coincidence, as long as they stand next to the metal and cast Thunder Method, they can detect the magnetization of the metal.

Now it seems that it is probably Spiritual Qi's fault.

Thinking of this, Zheng Fa couldn't help but think of what Senior Brother Zhuang said about Spiritual Qi being the poison of the world.

There is an inexplicable fit.

Of course, even if Xuanwei Realm monks discover this phenomenon, will they start an energy revolution? Zheng Fa doesn't think so.

Spiritual Qi is so easy to use.

"That's not bad." Old Man Bai thought for a moment and said, "At least we don't have to worry about anyone using electronic devices to spy on us."

Zheng Fa nodded, looking at Old Man Bai with longing in his eyes, knowing that the old man couldn't wait any longer.

He walked back to his room and took out five books from his suitcase.

<Scarlet Firmament Formula>,<Azure Water Formula>,<Everlasting Spring Method>,<Geng Metal Formula> and <Yellow Earth Method>.

They are all in the Nine Mountains Sect, which are the introductory Cultivation Method for disciples to practice.

Metal, wood, water, fire, earth Five Elements, Zheng Fa chose one Cultivation Method.

The first criterion for selection is safety!

The ones that require the most annotations, Cultivation Method, are the most detailed, even Qi Deviation are difficult.

"This is?"

"You guys try it one by one, whichever book you can practice the fastest will be the one you can practice with."

The reason why he used this stupid method is because he didn't give Old Man Bai two people a way to test Spirit Root - this is the hard part of being a trailblazer Founder in modern times.

To a certain extent, Hyundai is an enhanced version of the decline of the Xuanwei Realm Spiritual Opportunity.

No Spirit Plant.

No Spirit Stone.

There are no various means that Xuanwei Realm has long been popular.

But on the other hand, developing a small civilization of cultivating immortals from scratch will allow Zheng Fa to have a deeper understanding of the nature of Immortal Way.

Until now, Zheng Fa doesn't know what Spirit Root is.

He also has some thoughts of his own - from the perspective of the process of converting Spiritual Qi into spiritual power, there are two determining factors. The first is of course Divine Soul, and the second is the trajectory of Spiritual Qi determined by the meridians.

Then Spirit Root is most likely related to this trajectory.

As for the relationship, Zheng Fa still needs some additional evidence.

Old Man Bai The two looked at each other and each chose an article.

Old Man Bai took <Yellow Earth Method>.

Tang Lingwu won <Changchun Jue>.

The two of them frowned as they flipped through the books.

These are all Cultivation Method from the Xuanwei Realm, which is a bit difficult for modern people to understand.

There are some concepts in it that are relatively unfamiliar to most people.

"I'll teach you first. It's always harder at the beginning."

Zheng Fa had already thought of these problems. He walked up to the two of them, picked up two books, and began to guide them in their cultivation.

Fortunately, compared to others, both of them have practiced <Spirit Crane Body>, so they have some basic skills.

But some of the terms in Cultivation Method also need to be explained slowly by Zheng Fa.

Zheng Fa was also afraid that they would have problems during their first practice, so he explained both books in detail with great patience.

What surprised him a little was that Old Man Bai seemed to be very basic.

He is very familiar with many terms - such as meridians, meditation, breathing and meditation.

"Am I stupid?"

Tang Lingwu looked at Zheng Fa with a somewhat frustrated look.

Zheng Fa shook his head, also very confused - Tang Lingwu is certainly not stupid. When he learned these things before, he didn't perform much better than Tang Lingwu.

He looked at Old Man Bai with deep thought in his eyes.

"What books have you read recently?"

"Ahem." Old Man Bai scratched his hair, a little embarrassed to be discovered. "I just bought a few Daoist scriptures and read them."

The way Tang Lingwu looks at Old Man Bai has changed, a bit like the way Wang Chen looked at Zheng Fa before - you are so curly!

When it came time to practice, Zheng Fa was even more certain - this old man had practiced!

His meditation posture is very standard.

Entering the cultivation state is much faster than Tang Lingwu.

This can't help but make Tang Lingwu a little anxious.

Old Man Bai was still a little embarrassed, so he comforted Tang Lingwu: "When I master it, I'll tell you the secret!"

Zheng Fa's strategy is to have two people try five copies of Cultivation Method respectively.

Then use <Void-Piercing Spirit Eye> to observe how quickly the two absorb Spiritual Qi.

Thereby picking out the Cultivation Method that they practice the fastest.

To Zheng Fa's relief, both of them could absorb Spiritual Qi smoothly.

This means that both of them have the so-called Spirit Root.

But from the perspective of Zheng Fa at this time, Spirit Root is probably not a question of whether or not, but a question of whether it is good or bad.

After trying it for a while, he found that Old Man Bai was the most suitable for <Yellow Earth Method>, which meant that he absorbed the most Spiritual Qi by practicing <Yellow Earth Method>.

As for Tang Lingwu, she is very good at choosing. The <Everlasting Spring Method> she picked up at the beginning was extremely suitable for her physique.

It's really suitable...

Seeing the speed at which Tang Lingwu absorbed Spiritual Qi, Zheng Fa couldn't help but look at Old Man Bai with deep meaning - he estimated that Tang Lingwu was probably the cultivation speed of Single-Spirit Root.

In other words, she is a genius!

Old Man Bai The two of them gradually became immersed in practice. Zheng Fa watched carefully from the side, fearing that something would happen to these two beginners.

After a while, Old Man Bai slowly opened his eyes, looked at Zheng Fa and said with excitement, "Zheng Fa, I practice this <Yellow Earth Method>, it is indeed faster than the other four Cultivation Method! I feel like I have already cultivated a trace of Spiritual Qi."

Zheng Fa put his finger to his lips and motioned for him to look at Tang Lingwu.

Tang Lingwu At this time, there is a small Spiritual Qi vortex on the head, as if it is advancing.

Old Man Bai was stunned, and the look he looked at Tang Lingwu was very similar to the look Wang Chen was looking at Zheng Fa now - why?

Xuanwei Realm.

Zheng Fa just wrote down on paper this time various thoughts about practicing <Spirit Mountain Method>.

Senior Sister Yuan suddenly broke in.

"Junior Brother Zheng!" She looked panicked. "Aunt-Master Huang sent news that Everlasting Spring Sect was exterminated, Senior Sister Zhang disappeared, and other disciples were ambushed!"
