Alright, ginseng, linghzi and tranquility grass seem to grow really fast even on fertile soil but the spirit leaves stopped growing after a while because of unsuitable qi. How do I fix this? Do I just wait for the soil to accumulate more qi?
You can artificially increase the Qi of an area using Qi Gathering item. A piece of Spirit Wood at the center should cover a cross shape area in 5x5.

Effect that states "Physical Cultivator's" will apply to the cultivator passively.

Effect that states "Secret Body" requires you to equip Body Part skill to work along it.

Most rare purple tier effect are the prior type.

Defense are good for making that body part harder to be damage too.

The Spirit Crystal refill 20k Qi, so you will get hurt if your Max Qi is lower than that. You will only get some injury if you are close to that amount like 17k.

Cow are great farmers. All of them practically start out maxed farming with cap breaks.

They have unique four stomach organs and techniques to massively increase in consumption.

Frog suck. it’s practically impossible for body cultivator to die in battle, so faster healing means they might be able to wake up during the battle to go again.

Treasure suppression are good against enemy with little treasures. Holding onto one treasure won’t help against someone with six or group battle. Except for whoever have the howl technique (wolf?) to suppress all treasures in range.

I might be bias on this since I go straight for attacking the daoist instead of dancing around with their treasure. Qi Piercing ftw :madmax:

Single treasure suppression is great against wild demon who only have one treasure core.

Snake are great herbalist/alchemist.

All Body Cultivator will reach a point where they eat several bowls of food each day, so you need to get a huge farm going.

One of our body turtle reached the point where he is trapped in the cycle of walking to table, eat, returns to cultivation spot, got hungry again, repeats. Put table next to turtle and hope they go for that one.

I think wolf might have the most powerful combat techniques, but they are very difficult to unlock. There’s one that need 200 points on base essense on each body parts.

If you mean those on sale in trade, they are all Rng and they are terrible. You should only go for those with unique spells or treasure/alchemy/spell buff arts.

The tribulation cloud for the six path is a lot lower in Qi to match with the weakening. Like 5 or 6 digits. So it would in theory, be very easy to breakthrough in Formation, or learn max Qi art on any point of your breakthrough to get a boost on top of your weakened stat. The next weakening should start to include the newly gained Max Qi for the scaling.

Daoist wizard are the type that power up through sucking in mana (Qi) and works toward stuffing as much of it as possible in their body without exploding through various means of Qi manipulation to temper/strengthen the body, eat rare herbs/alchemy-elixir that nourish the body to become more capable of doing so, etc. Once they got enough ultra dense mana to become a magical being with poo poo ton of MP capable of changing the weather, manipulate law of nature, and greater understanding of soul: They are as good as god when they can do all that.

There are many other inter-inherent systems revolving around this primary concept of the genre like heaven culling this practice with tribulation and how cultivator circumvent, overcome, or bypass the system of this heavenly/natural law to attain godhood.

Is it worth studying max qi practices that are counteractive and eating the inspiration penalty?
Yes for mid game if you are desperate for a demi-god, and absolutely for end game if you can’t get core 1 in other way. You would eventually be swimming in inspiration from shrine’s faith and find plenty of ways to lower dao.

Unprovable stuff like tiger dong soup would remain as is due to the fact that "no evidence" isn't a good enough scientific conclusion for those who are desperate to get their dong working.

If you are still learning and want to get rid of the corner map demon beast, then you can cheese it by trapping it in a room filled with campfires to cook it to death. Building it will help you learn a bit more about room size and temperature control.

As for food, a normal map usually have enough pear tree and ginko tree to last you to winter. It’s easier to send Inner to visit the village that produce meat instead.

The difficulty ties to your sect’s reputation, so keep it low and you will be fine.

So after a body part has the max essence, what exactly happens if you choose more of that? It seems like it just disappears, but I could be missing something.
Disappears. There's a warning bar about it. Good for getting one less White stat though.

Those don't have medicine resistance. You can eat them forever, but ginseng fills hunger.

I just set the game to make infinite spirit stone spears once I can support it because it makes higher tier weapons that are more valuable.
If you have more manpower to mass produce weapon, it's better to make bow for time-to-money efficiency.

Spear need 1 main material, 2 Iron Bar, 3 timber, and 100 water. Your Outer would need to smith iron for 2 bar, chop wood for 3 timber, and draw water from lake or well to make one spear.

Bow need 5 main material.

I don't know if there is a real rhyme to the tribulation timer. I have a slight suspicion that the races that get huge modifiers to a stat, combined with a tiny "base" stat leads to some huge timers. Like bulls almost always have 10 con, but this example has 9.3 and a 777 day timer along with some decent levels in skills, and the rest of his stats are better than a lot of rolls.
There seem to be a minor RNG factor for chargen that adjust some numbers. Recreating the same character in mod will follow the countdown and other stat formula instead.

The only reason to delay Golden Core is for the right timing bonus for weather/season/time, and build Inner qi caldron. You can also get a one time Qi sense boost from attanding the Kunlun Competition, but it’s not worth it.

Shrine and Gate is just a place for praying/kowtowing action when someone trying to join or paying respect right after joining. It helps to gather every recruit in one place like Hell Gate.

I read the guide and I have my mental state pretty consistently at 200, but I can't keep it under 50 long enough for her to do the breakthrough. I think the longest I got was 33% until some event happened to break the streak and I had to start over.

Mind Fasting effect may be temporary, but it is more reliable if you can't get rid of mood buff. It will gradually drop it down to 1 over time.
