C28 The Wrong Cultivation System

The night was gloomy and the stars were twinkling. It was a building that looked like a courtyard with a large area. Rows of houses were erected on all four sides, as if four long walls had been erected. The wind was gentle, and the leaves in the courtyard were swaying in the wind.

In a house in the courtyard, the window of the window was wide open. Duanmu Kuang was sitting in front of the window. He leaned against the window, supported his cheeks, and looked up at the stars in the sky. His eyes were blurred, as if he didn't even notice the rustling of the leaves in the courtyard.

"Hu..." After a long time, Duanmu Kuang took a deep breath. He had been sitting in front of the window for a few hours. Unknowingly, it was already midnight.

Today, in the shed, although he was found to have no affinity for attributes during the test, Duanmu Kuang only felt a little regretful and did not take it to heart.

However, the Deacon's words made him fall into a daze and fear. The Deacon's understanding of martial arts and the use of the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy were very different from what he had learned. There were many differences that puzzled him.

According to the Deacon, the ultimate goal of a martial artist's cultivation was to assimilate with the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy and become a part of it.

However, Master often said that the human body itself had the five elements of yin and yang, and the human body was a furnace that could accommodate the five elements of yin and yang. A martial artist's cultivation was to absorb the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy into the body and fuse it into a part of the body.

"Which one is right? What Master said shouldn't be wrong, but why is that Deacon completely different from what Master said?" Duanmu Kuang asked himself.

He thought about this question for a few hours, but still could not come up with a conclusion. One stressed on making himself a part of the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy, and the other stressed on making the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy a part of himself.

These were two extremes. In Duanmu Kuang's heart, he was biased towards his master. But if what his master said was right, then it didn't mean that the Deacon was wrong. The entire cultivation system of Five Mountain Sect was wrong.

And according to what the Deacon said, what he said was publicly acknowledged by all the warriors of the continent. Didn't that mean that the cultivation system of all the warriors in the continent was wrong? This news was too shocking. If it was spread out, what kind of storm would it cause? Duanmu Kuang didn't dare to imagine.

This conclusion was too absurd and unbelievable. He was afraid that if Duanmu Kuang told others that their cultivation system was wrong, they would think that he was crazy. The cultivation system of the martial artists on the continent had been perfected by countless generations of ancestors. How could it be wrong?

However, that was what his master said. That was different. Thinking of his master's identity, Duanmu Kuang became even more determined. He firmly believed that the cultivation system inherited from the continent was wrong.

After solving the doubts in his heart, Duanmu Kuang stood up. He carefully sized up this house. From now on, this place would be his resting place. He had officially become a disciple of the Five Mountain Sect, an outer circle disciple. And this house was the residence allocated to him by the sect.

Although he didn't pass the last test of the afternoon, he still passed the first two tests, which met the requirements of the Five Mountain Sect to recruit outer circle disciples. Thus, he was naturally recruited.

After today's test was over, Duanmu Kuang and the other youths who didn't pass the final test with him were led by a Deacon to the outer circle disciples' activity area.

He also told them that somewhere was a forbidden area and another disciple's area, and that they weren't allowed to enter. He also told them to familiarize themselves with the environment.

Then, the Deacon brought them to the Deacon's area to collect the outer sect disciples' items and register them. Finally, he was brought to the house in the courtyard.

This courtyard was very large. Four rows of houses were like a wall surrounding a courtyard. Duanmu Kuang estimated that there should be a few hundred houses.

However, the house was a little narrow. Other than a bed, a square table, and a few chairs, there was nothing else in the house. It was not empty in this small house.

Duanmu Kuang's eyes swept across the house. His gaze landed on the square table in the house. On it were the items that he had received today. There were a few sets of Five Mountain Sect Sect uniform, a small booklet, and a small bag.

The uniform of the Five Mountain Sect disciples were all light blue. There were five large mountains embroidered on the left chest. The mountains were divided into four colors - gold, silver, bronze, and iron. This differentiated the grade of the disciples.

Looking at the uniform on the table in front of him, Duanmu Kuang saw that the large mountains embroidered on it represented the iron black color of the outer sect disciples. Duanmu Kuang picked up a set and measured it before putting it down.

"Sigh..." Thinking that the life of the outer sect disciples would start tomorrow, Duanmu Kuang sighed and sat down in front of the square table. He opened the small book on the table and read it carefully.

He was told at the Deacon area that the small book recorded the sect's rules and the things that outer sect disciples should pay attention to.

As the pages flipped, Duanmu Kuang's face became darker and darker. The situation of this outer sect disciple was even more severe than he had imagined. It could even be said that he was being targeted at all times.

In the Five Mountain Sect, outer sect disciples were the same as those who were abandoned by the sect. According to the introduction in the small booklet, Duanmu Kuang knew that outer sect disciples learned the lowest level cultivation techniques and martial skills in the sect. They did the jobs of ordinary wealthy families' servants and guards.

Not only did they have to frequently complete missions assigned by the sect, but the cultivation resources obtained from the sect were even less insignificant compared to those high level disciples.

"No wonder it's said that outer sect disciples have no future. Under such circumstances, it would be strange if their cultivation speed could be fast." Duanmu Kuang sighed.

He opened the small bag on the table. Inside was the fifteen origin stone distributed by the sect. Duanmu Kuang took out one of them, and instantly, a dense Heaven and Earth Vital Energy spread out in his hand.

"This low-grade origin stone really contains a lot of Heaven and Earth Vital Energy. I wonder how effective it will be when used for cultivation?" Duanmu Kuang's eyes were filled with anticipation as he looked at the origin stone in his hand.

This was an origin stone. Duanmu Kuang had never used this thing to cultivate. Although Zhong Lingyan had given Duanmu Kuang 100 low-grade origin stone back in Nanling Mountain Range, he had not had the time to cultivate these few days.

Now that he was free, Duanmu Kuang could not wait any longer. He had been focusing on cultivating using the origin stone for a long time. At this moment, his eyes were shining with a dark green light like a hungry wolf.

"Phew." Duanmu Kuang took a deep breath and walked to the bed. He held the origin stone in his hand and sat down cross-legged.

As soon as he circulated his Qi, Duanmu Kuang felt that the origin stone in his hand was like a pipe with an opening. A thick and solid Heaven and Earth Vital Energy rushed into his palm.

The thickness of this Yuan Qi exceeded the total amount of Yuan Qi he absorbed in the surroundings in the past. In the past, when he absorbed the surrounding Yuan Qi, it was as thick as frost mist, but when he absorbed the origin stone's Yuan Qi, it was as solid as cream. The two of them could not be mentioned in the same breath.

This Yuan Qi was like a flowing river as it continuously flowed into Duanmu Kuang's body. Duanmu Kuang circulated the Azure Dragon Sky Shattering Spell and guided this Yuan Qi through his meridians.

"So comfortable." Duanmu Kuang almost cried out.

It was too smooth. He had never been able to circulate the Azure Dragon Sky Shattering Spell so smoothly before. This Yuan Qi was like a dark blue stream of water, following the path of the Azure Dragon Sky Shattering Spell. It circulated through his meridians, passing through without obstruction. It was very smooth.

Yuan Qi filled his meridians to the brim, but he did not feel any swelling pain. Wherever the Yuan Qi flowed, his meridians seemed to stretch a little. It became a little bigger. Finally, it flowed into his dantian and was absorbed into his sea of Qi. It gradually condensed into a part of his sea of Qi.

Two hours later, Duanmu Kuang opened his eyes and slowly stopped cultivating. The origin stone turned into a small pile of dust in his palm.

Duanmu Kuang blew a breath and blew away the limestone in his hand. Then, he used his Divine Sense to look inside his body.

"This origin stone is really good stuff!"

Very quickly, Duanmu Kuang muttered to himself, his face full of excitement. Using the origin stone to cultivate not only increased his speed by 30%, but after condensing it, the Yuan Qi in his Qi Sea became even more solid and solid, and even his meridians became a little hazy.

Usually, Duanmu Kuang cultivated and absorbed the Yuan Qi between heaven and earth, but the Yuan Qi between heaven and earth was mottled and mixed. When the Azure Dragon Sky Shattering Spell was circulated, there would always be a slight delay. But when using this origin stone to cultivate, the Azure Dragon Sky Shattering Spell was incomparably smooth. This made Duanmu Kuang even more overjoyed.
