Chapter 241 Low-level Spirit Gathering Array
The Wen family members who were watching at the entrance of the cave looked at each other in disbelief.
This...this is it?
This seems a bit unreliable.
Although the Master appeared very confident and certain, he seemed a bit too frivolous.
Aside from the hematite, which was relatively difficult to find, everything else was easy to obtain. Bamboo leaves and clear water were readily available, and the other items were also not hard to come by. However, the talisman was prepared by the Master himself, which might explain its importance.
For a moment, no one spoke, and there was an awkward silence.
Wenwen volunteered, "Master, let me try and see how it goes." She then stepped into the cave.
Before she could even take a step with her left foot, Master Zhou quickly refused, "Stop! You can't."
Wenwen asked, puzzled, "Why can't I do it?"
Master Zhou: "Because your cultivation is too high and you enter meditation too quickly, there is no point in testing you."
Is the cultivation level too high, rendering the experiment pointless?
What's the point?
Wenwen was on the verge of tears. She never expected that someone with such high cultivation would be looked down upon. Who would be upset if she wasn't? She had even wanted to support her teacher, but he didn't appreciate it at all.
snort!
She didn't care anymore, crossed her arms, and looked sullen.
Not only Wenwen couldn't understand it, but the rest of the Wen family couldn't understand it either.
Wen Yuanqian: "Kang Yan, why is that?"
Master Zhou: "Those who enter meditation too quickly already know how to absorb spiritual energy and can skillfully operate the cultivation technique to quickly refine spiritual energy. In this case, the effect of the spirit gathering array cannot be seen. On the other hand, those who have just drawn qi into their bodies are not very skilled in the cultivation technique and cannot continuously and stably absorb spiritual energy."
Wen Yuanqian: "Then what kind of person is most suitable?"
Master Zhou: "The most suitable person is someone who has been drawing qi into their body for a period of time, has mastered the cultivation method, but whose refining of spiritual energy is not ideal and who has not made progress for a long time. This is because such a person attracts spiritual energy but cannot refine it. Only by measuring the amount of spiritual energy gathered here can I measure the effectiveness of this spirit gathering array."
Oh, I see.
This explanation seems to be understandable and acceptable to everyone.
Without hesitation, Wen Yuanqian shouted towards the outside of the cave, "Third brother—come here!"
The people blocking the entrance immediately moved to the sides, making way for a path in the middle.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Wen Qikang walked into the cave entrance, somewhat weakly, "Father, why me?"
Wen Yuanqian was furious and retorted, "Why not you? It's you."
That brat is a complete idiot, utterly useless. Last night, the three of them cultivated in the back mountain for half the night. Yao Changhao and Ye Jingchuan have already successfully reached the second level of Qi Refining, but he's still stuck at the first level, sitting there steadily. I don't know who he's waiting for. Xiao Chuan has already caught up, but he's still sitting on his fishing platform. He's really... the biggest idiot of all!
Wen Qikang didn't want to embarrass himself and still wanted to try, saying, "Actually, I'm not really suitable either."
Still arguing? Wen Yuanqian wouldn't allow him to argue. "Look around here. Tell me, who is the most suitable?" With that, he pushed him away with a palm strike.
Wen Qikang felt a powerful blow coming from behind him, so he stopped resisting and floated into the cave.
Master Zhou: "Third Brother, let's begin."
The two then sat down cross-legged.
Wen Yuanqian helped to shoo people away, saying, "Alright, this is in the testing phase. Everyone, go outside and stay away. Go do what you need to do and don't disturb the Master's testing."
Testing isn't something that can be done in a short time, so let's just call it a day.
Wenwen, leading a few little ones, said, "Come on, let's go hiking in the mountains with your big sister!"
"Let's go~~~"
These kids can run incredibly fast in the blink of an eye.
Wen Qilin turned to Uncle Wei and the others and said, "Brother Wei, let's go and explore this valley."
Uncle Wei was in a particularly good mood. "Hey, let's go, let's go, let's go!"
Uncle Wei has only been here a short time, yet he still feels like he's dreaming. What he's seen and heard these past two days has completely exceeded his understanding of the past half of his life. At this moment, he's terrified of waking up from this dream. If he could, he would want to stay in this dream forever.
Uncle Wei followed Wen Qilin's footsteps to the edge of a newly reclaimed field, where he saw Wen Chengjian and the other young men planting medicinal herbs.
Ye Jingchuan stood by the edge of the field, "Hey, don't cover the top layer of soil too thickly, and don't compact it, remember that..."
After passing the medicinal herb field, we saw Wen Qiyuan and Yao Changhao leading the women of the Wen family to water some saplings. There was a small stream nearby, making it very convenient to get water.
As expected, Aunt Yang was in the watering team, looking very happy. She had never done this kind of work before. If others saw her, they would only think that she was there to experience life. However, no matter what others thought, only she knew that she was really enjoying herself.
Uncle Wei pointed to the saplings and asked, "Brother Wen, are these fruit tree saplings?"
Wen Qilin: "That's right, I just bought them yesterday. I didn't expect there to be so many fruit seedlings here in Mobei City, so I bought a lot more."
Actually, there were also fruit seedlings that they had sprouted inside, which were planted together to avoid suspicion.
Uncle Wei rubbed his hands together excitedly, "Then when they bloom and bear fruit next year, won't we be able to... hahaha... get rich!"
"Yes, we'll just have to wait until next year for it to bloom and bear fruit, hahaha~~~"
The two men's laughter suddenly rang out, startling not only the birds in the nearby trees but also the people planting herbs and trees over there.
Time flies when you're working, and it flies even faster when you're playing.
As night fell and the birds returned to their nests, everyone went back to the bamboo courtyard, including Master Zhou and Wen Qikang who were testing in the cave, as well as Wen Yuanqian who had been guarding the cave entrance.
With everyone working together, a sumptuous dinner was easily prepared.
Actually, there are also small animals in the valley, such as pheasants and rabbits. There are also big animals on the more distant hills, such as wild boars and wild cattle. The Wen family usually doesn't hoard too much meat. If they crave meat, they can go out hunting for a day or two, which is enough.
For the Wen family, food and clothing are important, but cultivation is even more important; the best solution is to do both.
After dinner, the whole family gathered together to listen to Master Zhou's summary report on today's test.
Yes, the Wen family has long had a habit of announcing important events collectively after dinner.
Wen Yuanqian: "Kang Yan, tell us the results of today's test, let everyone hear them."
"Yes, father."
Then, Master Zhou talked about the test from the very beginning to the very end, going into many details and analyzing them bit by bit. He explained everything from the test theory to the test methods, and finally even presented the motivation for studying the formation and the direction for further research.
It can be said that every detail about this formation was described in great detail.
To put it bluntly, the only thing missing is bitter tea seeds.
Everyone understands the Master's good intentions without saying a word.
The purpose of teaching is to ensure that there are successors.
