Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo' Chapter 1100 566: The Pillar Skill of Home Cultivation
What does the rust under the eyes and the ash in the belly mean?
The whispers were increasing, becoming more intense, making Li Banfeng's head spin.
After an hour or so, the noise gradually faded away, and his wife's gentle singing slowly brought Li Banfeng back to normal.
"Winter arrives with snow all around, the husband is anxious, the wife's heart is restless, the family treasure self-counting technique is unforgettable, a skill by one's side is a pillar."
The last sentence is different.
Previously, it was always about adding another room for the gentleman.
Li Banfeng withdrew from the speaker and asked the phonograph, "What does 'a skill by one's side is a pillar' mean? Isn't another room added to the house this time?"
"A room has naturally been added, but the critical point of this technique, you must understand, house treasure self-counting technique is the pillar technique of home cultivation, you must not take it lightly," said the phonograph.
"What is a pillar technique?"
The phonograph explained, "It's the most important technique within the Taoist Sect. If you master the house treasure self-counting technique well, it means you've raised the beam of the home cultivation sect,
if you fail to learn, or learn it poorly without raising the beam, your cultivation in home cultivation will end here, and no matter how you cultivate in the future, your cultivation level will remain at the Second Layer, with no further progress."
Li Banfeng was shocked, "Home cultivation actually has such an important technique?"
The phonograph said, "Not only home cultivation, every Taoist Sect has pillar techniques."
"Does Traveling Cultivator have it too?"
Hong Ying said, "Yes, the First Layer Technique Wind Rises on Flat Ground is the pillar technique."
Li Banfeng carefully recalled the process of learning Wind Rises on Flat Ground. At entry, he relied on the coachman's guidance to learn the Foreign Carriage Step, which gave him astonishing endurance.
However, Grandpa Train didn't favor the Foreign Carriage Step and taught Li Banfeng the Train Footwork at Dream Tugging Tower. From then on, he excelled in Passing Glance, Trample Over Thousands of Rivers, Path-breaking Technique, and many other techniques, which should be the influence of the pillar technique on cultivation.
"Why does Traveling Cultivator's pillar technique come so early?"
The phonograph said, "Each sect has its own way. Traveling Cultivator's pillar technique comes early, the cultivators use it often, it seems learned solidly. But using it often and using it right are two different things. Upon entering the path, knowing little about the essentials of the Taoist sect, it's easy to go astray. If the path is wrong, no amount of effort will help."
Hong Ying snorted, seemingly disagreeing with the phonograph's statement.
The phonograph ignored Hong Ying and continued guiding Li Banfeng, "The pillar technique for home cultivation comes later. But you know much of the essentials of the home cultivation path, as long as you cultivate diligently, you shouldn't go astray.
However, you're too eager, your cultivation level is still at Earth Skin, somewhat sloppy in learning techniques. Golden Gaze Autumn Hair, Hundred Flavors Delicate, Insightful Spirit Sound are three techniques given by the Little Servant, you're quite proficient with them,
Arrow Homing, Benevolent and Righteous, Deep Mansion Courtyard Technique, Close Doors and Shut Windows, Peaceful Dwelling these five techniques, you often use them, not bad,
Golden House Concealing Beauties this technique, you use it poorly, occasionally as a Sweet Melon Person, you can barely fight. Shadow Hanging Technique, you've only scratched the surface, as for Land Expansion Skill, it's not even as good as Golden House Concealing Beauties, you've barely learned the basics,
the previous techniques, you need to study more, but for house treasure self-counting technique, you must not just go through the motions, or Little Servant truly can't help you improve your cultivation level."
Li Banfeng dared not be negligent, seriously asked, "How is this technique used?"
"Family treasures refer to the home's treasures, place the home's treasures in your heart, count them one by one, in times of adversity, bring out the treasures and use them as your left and right arms, this is the essence of house treasure self-counting."
Li Banfeng laughed, "Does one even need to learn this technique? Our family's treasures, I count them every day, every battle they serve as left and right arms!"
The gloves hugged their shoulders, shook a finger and said, "You treat us like dear brothers, we fight without hesitation, living and dying together in this bond, this big beam of the Taoist sect, you've long since raised!"
The phonograph snickered at the gloves, "You're quite the talker, no wonder you are favored. Family treasures self-counting isn't just about you all, other objects in the house are treasures too,
once a Martial Cultivator expert entered a home cultivation courtyard, fought a home cultivator, the Martial Cultivator's level far surpassed the home cultivator, and whatever fell into the Martial Cultivator's hands was a supreme weapon,
but never expected, in this home cultivator's courtyard, every object he held couldn't become a weapon, none helped the Martial Cultivator exert his power,
while this home cultivator relied on assorted debris in the yard to injure the Martial Cultivator seriously, this is an example from house treasure self-counting technique,
if you want to master this technique, you cannot start with magical treasures and spiritual objects, you should first find an ordinary object in the home, communicate with it sincerely, see if you can both develop a sense of connection."
The most ordinary object?
"What object is suitable?"
The phonograph advised, "The longer an object has been placed at home, the easier it is to become a family treasure, objects you sincerely like can also become family treasures."
First is the objectively long time, second is the subjective liking.
Li Banfeng glanced around, first saw his own iron shovel.
This shovel entered with the sickle, it developed spirituality, becoming a magical treasure, yet this iron shovel is still just a shovel.
Though without spirituality, this shovel followed Li Banfeng for quite some days, through many fierce battles, during the first battle on Kuwu Mountain, it achieved merit, defeating the Deathgate Star formation, the shovel exerted great force."
