I have become immortal, Taoist friends still need to be diligent

Li Mu went to several more shops, some selling elixirs, some selling spiritual weapons, some selling talismans, some selling robes, and so on.

Li Mu went to have a look, and found that there was no shortage of people. However, some stores needed clerks, but Li Mu was not interviewed because he was too unfamiliar with the world of immortality.

"Bah~ Who are you? He's a cultivator of immortality. He doesn't even know how to speak politely."

Li Mu lowered his head and cursed in his mind the few shopkeepers he encountered who rejected him.

Just because someone asked Li Mu some common sense about the world of immortality, Li Mu didn't know anything about it, and then just said the same thing.

"You have no chance with our store, please find another place."

Li Mu hadn't eaten yet today and was a little hungry, so he went to the tavern he met yesterday, ready to rest his stomach before pursuing further development.

"Boss, what food do you want?"

Li Mu asked after entering the tavern.

"Sir, here is the menu, please take a look."

A young boy who looked like a waiter saw Li Mu coming in and quickly stepped forward holding a menu and said.

"it is good."

Li Mu found a seat and sat down, opened the menu and started reading.

"In the early stage of Qi refining, there are five kilograms of spiritual pork and one low-grade spirit stone. In the middle stage of Qi refining, there are five kilograms of spiritual mutton and two low-grade spiritual stones..."

Li Mu frowned when he saw it. He only had more than thirty low-grade spiritual stones in his body, and he still had to pay rent. At this price, he would starve to death in a few days.

"Brother, is your store still hiring staff?"

Li Mu thought for a while and decided to try his luck in this store again. What if it happens?

"I'll ask the shopkeeper."

The waiter didn't despise Li Mu for looking for a job before ordering. He turned around and went to the counter to ask the shopkeeper.

"Here we go, but we only need one fireman. Do you have fire spiritual roots?"

The shopkeeper naturally heard what Li Mu said and spoke to Li Mu before the waiter arrived.

"Yes, I have."

Li Mu was a little surprised and immediately left his seat and came to the counter and said to the shopkeeper.

"Oh? I think you have reached the third level of Qi Refining, right?"

The shopkeeper immediately raised his eyes and looked at Li Mu and said.

"The third level of Qi refining is complete."

Li Mu said confidently.

"Well, how's your control over flames?"

After getting Li Mu's affirmative answer, the shopkeeper asked again.

"Pfft~"

Li Mu didn't answer, but casually summoned a fireball technique.

"Ha~ The perfect "Fireball Technique"?"

"You were born to eat this bowl of rice. Xiao Wang, take him to the kitchen."

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up when he saw Li Mu's perfect fireball technique, and then he smiled and said to Li Mu.

"Well, I wonder what the reward is?"

Li Mu didn't wait for the waiter to take him to the fire room, then he rubbed his fingers suggestively and said to the shopkeeper.

"Hey, fifty low-grade spiritual stones a month."

The shopkeeper smiled and said to Li Mu.

"Do you care about food and accommodation?"

"Take care, take care of yourself."

The shopkeeper patted his chest and said proudly.

"Okay, I did it."

Finally having a place to live and eat, Li Mu felt a lot more at ease, and then followed the waiter to the kitchen.

"Master Zhang, um, by the way, what's your name?"

"My name is Li Changsheng."

"Good name."

"I think so."

"..."

Li Mu was then taken by Chef Zhang to arrange matters.

Chef Zhang is a sixth-level Qi Refining monk in his forties. Mainly responsible for the preparation of dishes in the tavern.

The task he assigned to Li Mu was to learn to cut vegetables and prepare ingredients every day, and the most important thing was to use spiritual fire to heat dishes.

Because only dishes heated by spiritual fire can keep the spiritual energy of the spiritual meat and vegetables in the dishes full.

There are five or six firemen in the fire room, taking turns to heat the dishes. The most important time is controlled by Chef Zhang. Li Mu only needs to be responsible for slow heating for an hour intermittently every day. Just add two more hours of chores and take three days off every month.

The room arranged for Li Mu was a ten-square-meter independent dormitory without a spirit gathering array.

The food they ate were all the leftovers from the monster beasts in the early stage of Qi refining. But Li Mu didn't care. The most important thing was to survive in this city first.

In this way, Li Mu left the house of Immortal Guesthouse and came to the tavern to start his first job in the world of immortality.

"Xiao Li, add more heat."

Following Chef Zhang's words, Li Mu quickly gathered his spiritual fire, and slowly the fire was as thick as a child's arm and shot towards the bottom of the pot.

"Reduce the heat by 10%."

"okay."

"Strengthen it by 30%."

"Ah."

At the end of the day, Li Mu felt that the spiritual energy in his Dantian was less than 30%. I quickly went back to my room and started practicing.

The days passed like this, and in less than half a month, Li Mu learned about his physical condition.

It turns out that everyone’s spiritual roots in the world of immortality are different. Youtianlinggen, a single spiritual root, can cultivate successfully by eating and drinking.

Without taking elixir herbs. Just by swallowing enough spiritual energy, it will take twenty years to break through the foundation. There is no bottleneck before Jindan.

Earth Spiritual Root, two spiritual roots, takes twice as long to cultivate as Heavenly Spiritual Root. Without taking elixirs and herbs, it would take forty years to break through the foundation building. Only when you break through the golden elixir, will there be any bottleneck.

Three spiritual roots, as the name suggests, there are three spiritual roots. The cultivation time is three times that of Tianlinggen. Without taking elixirs and herbs, it will take sixty years to break through the foundation building. There are no bottlenecks before foundation building.

Four spiritual roots. There are four spiritual roots in the body. The cultivation time is four times that of Tianlinggen. Without taking elixirs and herbs, it would take eighty years to break through the foundation building. There are certain bottlenecks in the foundation building period.

The Five Spiritual Roots are also called the Five Elements Spiritual Roots, and they have all the Five Elements Spiritual Roots. The cultivation time is five times that of the Tianling Root. Without taking elixirs and herbs, it will take a hundred years to build the foundation. There are bottlenecks every time you break through a small realm, and the bottlenecks when you break through the foundation building stage are even more difficult to describe.

Of course this is only theoretical. The details also depend on your understanding, cultivation resources, Taoist heart, etc. Just like many three spirit roots, even if there are enough elixirs and herbs, they may not be able to break through the foundation building.

The Four Spiritual Roots and Five Spiritual Roots are even more difficult. They have bottlenecks when they break through the foundation building stage at the peak of Qi refining, and they need to constantly polish them, and then use elixirs that help break through before they have a chance to build the foundation.

Li Mu also knew about his physical condition, because if he had multiple spiritual roots, he would need to keep up with the rest of the spiritual root realms every time he reached a small realm. Otherwise, it would be difficult to break through, and even if he broke through, his body would still suffer. damage.

Li Mu also knew the method of testing his spiritual roots.

One is to hold a soul measuring board and test it directly, and it will be very accurate. However, testing the spirit plate requires a thousand lower-grade spiritual stones, and the spirit plate will be scrapped every time it is tested a certain number of times. Li Mu doesn't have that much money.

Ordinary people would not buy a soul measuring board separately, unless some family sects would buy it for testing.

The second method is to use various cultivation techniques to explore whether you have this kind of spiritual root. If there is, the corresponding spiritual energy in the air will be sensed. If not, it will naturally not be detected.

In the world of immortality, this way of sensing spiritual energy is called inspiration. Only when you sense the spiritual energy and draw it into your body to open up your Dantian, and you become a first-level Qi refining monk, can you truly practice cultivation.
