Chapter 3 Huang Tingdao
After Zhang Zhixuan finished his work, he said goodbye to his seventeenth uncle Zhang Mengjian hastily and returned to his cave.
He unhurriedly opened a protective formation to isolate the cave, and then gently took out a yellowed book from his arms, with a bit of a wry smile on his face.
“I have been living in this world for sixteen years, and I finally have a little understanding of it. When can I return to my hometown?
I guess I have to rely on this mysterious Taoist book. ” Zhang Zhixuan thought secretly in his heart.
Although Zhang Zhixuan has lived in this world for sixteen years, the soul in his body comes from the earth.
More than ten years ago when he was still on Earth, he bought an old book at a used book market. He was reading it with gusto at night. After meditating for a night, his soul traveled to this world and possessed this little baby.
Six years later, his memory gradually began to recover, and he soon discovered that the Taoist book had followed him to this world.
This book is called “Huang Ting Dao Lun”, and it seems to have been written by a Taoist figure. What is discussed in it are all Taoist subtleties and great principles.
Even though Zhang Zhixuan has been familiar with this book for more than ten years, he still doesn’t know much about the content in the book.
However, after reading this book for many years, Zhang Zhixuan found that his memory was getting better and better, his understanding ability was getting higher and higher, and his comprehension also increased.
According to the estimates of the elders in the family, he was only a three-spirit-root monk, and it was impossible for him to cultivate so quickly.
But he has been studying this book for many years. Although this Taoist book did not bring him magical powers, it relied on his increasingly better understanding and years of hard and self-discipline practice. On the contrary, the progress of his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. Even a second spiritual root monk would not be able to reach the sixth level of Qi training at his age.
The average second spirit root monk from a large sect is around 20 years old when he reaches the sixth level of Qi training. Compared with them, Zhang Zhixuan is undoubtedly one step ahead.
Relying on Su Hui, he not only cultivated earlier than others, but also worked harder and more self-disciplined than ordinary children.
After more than ten years, he is already more than ten years ahead of the monks with the same spiritual roots.
The Zhang family of Lushan is the largest immortal cultivating family near Lushan. Starting from the ancestor Zhang Tairen, the inheritance has been orderly for more than 400 years.
Four hundred years ago, the Zhang family settled in Lushan. After hundreds of years of management, the Zhang family now has one monk in the foundation-building stage, more than a hundred Xiantian and Qi-training monks, and 30,000 to 40,000 ordinary members.
According to the genealogy, there are twelve generations of Zhang family monks, arranged in order according to Taichu Lemeng, Zhisi Tongyuan, and Guangsheng Zemao.
Among them, the second generation monks from Taichu have completely sat down.
The monks of the Lezi generation have the smallest number, and most of them have passed away. Now only three people survive.
Except for the clan leader who has extraordinary cultivation and has already established a foundation, the other two have long been extremely old and are now retiring outside the mountains.
The monks of the Meng generation are the backbone of the family. There are more than thirty people in total, and most of them are already middle-to-late-stage Qi-training monks.
The monks of the Zhizi generation have the largest number, about forty people. Most of them are not very advanced and not very old. The oldest is only over fifty years old. Many of them have not yet broken through the Qi training stage and are lingering in the innate stage.
The number of monks of the Sizi generation is even smaller, there are only eighteen of them now, the oldest is only twenty-three years old, and the one with the highest cultivation level has not broken through the ninth level of innateness.
This generation of monks has not yet discovered any outstanding talents, and they have almost no say among the family monks.
The Taoist book in Zhang Zhixuan’s hands is called “Huang Ting Tao Lun”, and only he can read it.
In the eyes of others, this Taoist book is just a big purple jade tablet, and the runes on it are so mysterious that they cannot be recognized at all.
From then on, he no longer looked at him as an ordinary child. Instead, he was carefully cultivated and taught how to read, read, and meditate.
After discovering this mysterious jade plaque, Zhang Zhixuan’s father kept silent and did not tell other monks in the clan.
He was also named Zhang Zhixuan because of this mysterious and mysterious jade plaque.
And the “Huang Ting Dao Lun” that he brought with him through time and space has gradually become somewhat strange.
After he entered the qi training period, he finally understood the first spell of qi accumulation.
This is a qi-nourishing method that can refine the purple energy of the morning sun, and use it to warm the body’s dantian, dissolve the violent magic power in the body, and reduce the risk of becoming possessed.
In addition to practicing this magic technique called Yunqi Technique, Zhang Zhixuan also practiced three magic spells over the years.
These three spells are the Light Body Technique, the Body Fixation Technique, and the Golden Needle Technique.
In the innate stage, monks cannot practice any spells because they have not yet refined their spiritual energy.
In addition to their physical toughness, strength, intelligence, and quick thinking, monks in the innate stage are not much better than ordinary people.
If a mortal wears sharp armor and holds a crossbow and arrows, as long as dozens of armored warriors come forward together, they can defeat ordinary innate monks.
When the monks have reached the Qi training stage, because the meridians throughout their body have been opened, they can already refine their spiritual power, learn spells, and control magic weapons and talismans.
At this point, the monk’s ability has become extraordinary. Even with thousands of troops, there is often nothing that can be done against the monk.
During the Qi training period, monks have not yet developed their spiritual consciousness, their magic power is still relatively weak, and they can learn very few spells.
A monk with a level of Qi training can only learn one spell. With each additional level of cultivation, he can learn one more spell.
Zhang Zhixuan has now reached the sixth level of Qi training. At the peak of the middle stage of Qi training, he could have learned six spells.
It’s a pity that Zhang Zhixuan has only learned three spells over the years because he has been focusing on improving his skills.
Compared with the middle-aged and elderly monks of his fellow cultivators, Zhang Zhixuan has some gaps with them in terms of experience, spells, magical weapons, and spiritual talismans. If he fights with others outside the mountain, he may not be able to protect himself.
“This time when I go out to complete the family mission, try to choose a place as close to the mountain gate as possible.
The first thing is to get familiar with the world of immortality outside the mountain and accumulate as much experience as possible.
The second thing is to go down the mountain to find out the cause of his father’s death, avenge him as soon as possible, and fulfill his long-cherished wish.
After the third trip down the mountain, although spiritual energy is insufficient and cultivation is slow, we still need to lay a solid foundation and learn a few spells to lay a solid foundation for future cultivation and make up for our shortcomings. “Zhang Zhixuan closed the Taoist book and thought to himself.
He slowly transferred the spiritual energy, circulated it for twelve weeks, warmed the acupoints, stabilized his cultivation, and then opened the cave and headed all the way to the top of the mountain.
