Chapter 11: Gathering Qi from the Cosmos

In front of a skyscraper in the city center.

Zhang Yu looked up, gazing at the towering building that seemed to pierce through the sky. Vaguely, he could see what appeared to be an immortal palace faintly emerging at the top of the skyscraper.

This was the office building of the Xianyun Group in the city center of Songyang City.

Beyond that, Zhang Yu could also see a much taller giant building in the distance, as if it were connected to the very end of the real sky. He knew that this was the tallest building in Songyang City, the central skyscraper with 999 floors, which was also a landmark he often saw on his way to and from school.

At this moment, he turned his head again to look at the office building in front of him.

"The Xianyun Group?"

On the way here, Zhang Yu had already searched for relevant information about the Xianyun Group on the Internet.

This was a huge enterprise under the Wufa Sect, one of the Ten Great Sects. The businesses it operated included developing cultivation techniques, selling cultivation techniques, immortal - path education, books and cultural and creative products, etc.

The Wufa Sect was one of the Ten Great Sects. In this Kunxu world, from clothing, food, housing, and transportation to birth, aging, illness, and death, one's entire life was inseparable from the Ten Great Sects, and immortal - path cultivation was no exception.

Therefore, Zhang Yu was not surprised that such a giant enterprise like the Xianyun Group belonged to the Wufa Sect, one of the Ten Great Sects.

Bowing his head, he walked into the building. After explaining his purpose at the front desk, Zhang Yu went through registration, signing contracts, and a simple physical examination in succession. Finally, he was led to a place that looked like a classroom.

He saw that besides himself, there were already several students sitting in the classroom.

After waiting for some time, when the number of students in the classroom reached fifteen, a middle - aged man in a suit walked in and began to introduce today's test cultivation content.

"Hello everyone. I'm your instructor for today."

"Although all of you present have signed contracts, I still need to remind you that everything we discuss here today is not allowed to be spread. Once our company discovers that any of you has leaked the news, no matter where you run to the ends of the earth, we will definitely find you."

Hearing this speech, the hearts of many students tightened. They knew that what the other party said was true. With the strength of the Xianyun Group and the Wufa Sect behind it, it was indeed not difficult to do so.

Then, things like silver needles connected to wires were sent to the students by mechanical arms.

The instructor beside continued, "When you start to circulate qi, the detection patches will monitor the situation of the magical power circulation in your body in real time."

"The Yuan Ci needles will stimulate various parts of your body along the qi - circulation route under the operation of the mechanical arm to assist you in identifying and correcting the qi - circulation route..."

After listening for a while, Zhang Yu understood. It was like an automatic pathfinder... Oh no, it wasn't an automatic pathfinder for cultivation, right?

Because the operation route of this No. 113 cultivation technique was too complicated, and the requirements for the timing and positions of the circulation of spiritual power and qi were too high, it was necessary to detect the qi - circulation path of the cultivator while using the Yuan Ci needles to stimulate various parts of the body to guide.

However, the danger of this process was also not small because the operation route of No. 113 cultivation technique was too complicated.

Under such a complicated qi - circulation route, once the qi - circulation path deviated slightly, it would cause the qi to get out of control, overflow inside the body, making the body feel itchy and painful, alternately cold and hot, and likely to cause a greater loss of control.

If the time dragged on, it would lead to internal injuries. The longer the time dragged on, the more serious the internal injuries would be.

constantly changing data on the screen.

The above showed the situation of the qi - circulation in the bodies of the students after they started to try to cultivate Experimental Cultivation Technique No. 113.

The assistant beside also looked solemnly at the cultivation diagrams of each student on the screen. These were images that described the qi - circulation routes in the students' bodies after gathering the magical power data from various parts of the students.

The correct circulation route was green, while the parts where the qi - circulation deviated would be marked as red.

As time passed minute by minute, seeing more and more red error reports constantly appearing on the qi - circulation routes of each student, disappointment also continuously appeared in the assistant's eyes.

"Teacher, the guidance accuracy of the Yuan Ci needles seems to need to be improved. Otherwise, it won't be able to meet the qi - circulation accuracy requirements of beginners when cultivating No. 113."

"To make beginners master No. 113 is still too difficult. Do we need to recruit a group of testers with higher Dao - heart levels?"

The so - called teacher frowned and said, "No matter whether it's No. 113 or the Yuan Ci needles, they were originally developed for beginners. I won't change this direction."

"After all, those with higher Dao - heart levels have better cultivation techniques to learn. No. 113 lacks competitiveness in its passive qi - gathering effect. On the contrary, beginners need the passive qi - gathering effect more..."

Just then, a student who made a mistake let out a muffled sound and suddenly spat out a big mouthful of blood.

'Teacher' said coldly, "Send him out quickly. Don't let him disrupt the minds of the others."

However, with the appearance of the first vomiting - blood student, more and more students trying to cultivate the cultivation technique began to feel unwell. Some were gasping for breath with faces ashen, some screamed and fainted in pain, and some had minor injuries, only having pain or itching in the positions where they were circulating qi, with pale faces...

Seeing one student after another being sent out, the face of 'teacher' became uglier and uglier.

He complained, "The quality of this batch of students is too poor. Can't you recruit some better students?"

Instead, standing up slowly while enduring the itching and pain, he was supported by the instructor beside him, who also said in surprise, "This student, are you okay?"

This was the first time he had seen someone persevere until the end with such a high error rate.

Zhang Yu held his stomach and said, "I feel as if my internal organs are burning, itchy and painful. My upper body feels like it's on fire, and my lower body feels like it's frozen... It's so uncomfortable."

The instructor quickly supported him and said, "Let me take you to the infirmary to check your condition first."

"No!" Zhang Yu waved his hand abruptly and said, "What I mean is... increase the payment."

The instructor sized him up and looked at Zhang Yu's trembling body and increasingly pale face, and said, "One thousand yuan. Sign another contract, and we will not be responsible for anything that happens to you afterwards."

After some haggling, Xianyun Company finally paid Zhang Yu an additional 3,000 yuan, requiring him to have nothing to do with Xianyun Company regardless of his injuries afterwards.
