Chapter 4: Nine Dragons Jade Carving, Sect Mission
Two months later, the monks' cave was built in Jinhong Valley.
Taoist Qisha himself doesn't care much about his own birthday, or in other words, most monks don't care much about it.
After cultivating to a higher level, a retreat may take several years or even ten years. It is impossible to just go out to celebrate your birthday.
Moreover, it is really possible for a Taoist to live as long as heaven and earth, so they don’t care much about these things.
But since he has just accepted six disciples, even if Yin Tianchou is unkind, he will not be able to get close to those disciples who don't even care about their master's birthday. This is also human nature.
Zhang Lie's fourth uncle, Zhang Chuanli, deliberately left Jinhong Valley for more than two months for this birthday gift and apprenticeship. Finally, he barely made it back in time and handed Zhang Lie a Nine Dragons Jade Wall.
Jinhong Valley, inside the cave of Taoist Qisha.
Looking at the majestic Nine Dragons Jade Wall in front of him, which was made entirely of cold jade and contained aura, even Yin Tianchou, the experienced Qisha Taoist, was quite satisfied.
The value of this piece of cold jade is not very high. In the world of immortality, its value is only ten spiritual stones. However, the craftsman who carved and crafted it has integrated his life's skills and hard work into it, just like injecting spirit into it.
Soul, so that the nine cold jade chi dragons have exquisite images and majestic appearance, which is extremely high added value.
Zhang Chuanli is an experienced man, and he deeply understands that the key to giving gifts is that the other person likes them, especially for people like Taoist Qi Sha, who don't care much about the high value of the gift.
"Lao Wu, you've worked hard."
Yin Tianchou stroked his beard and sighed in admiration, clearly liking this object. This cold jade nine-dragon sculpture is used as a decoration in the mansion, and it is very good for moving the wind and changing the qi.
"It is what a disciple should do to serve the Master wholeheartedly." Zhang Lie saluted and said this.
In addition to Zhang Lie, several of his other senior brothers also came from the same family. At this time, they also took out their own gifts:
Either a sword technique, a precious elixir, or a magic weapon, most of which are spiritual objects of great value compared to their worth.
However, Taoist Qisha's reaction to this was very dull, at least he didn't express his obvious liking like when he admired the Cold Jade Nine Dragon Sculpture.
Among the seven disciples, the sixth disciple Kong Xiu’s gift was the shabbiest. It was just a Taoist robe handwoven by himself. It was not even a spiritual object, but a precious brocade. The workmanship was so average that Kong Xiu was almost embarrassed to take it out.
Come on.
"Sixth, stop hiding behind the scenes. If you give Master a gift, do you want Master to go there in person?"
Senior sister Li Manmei said this jokingly as she intended to rescue her junior sister.
"No, no, Master, I, I..." When Kong Xiu pitifully took out the Taoist robe and handed it to Yin Tianchou.
Yin Tianqiu's face and expression did not change, but he directly picked up the Taoist robe and put it on himself, putting it on on the spot. It can be said that he took great care of Kong Xiu's face.
Others also knew that Kong Xiu was born as a mortal. Although he was a high-ranking nobleman in the mortal world, it was difficult for Kong Xiu to borrow any power in the world of immortality.
In the cave, under the service of many maids and puppet agents, Yin Tianchou and his seven disciples and sons sat at separate tables, drank together, and tasted the delicacies of spiritual food.
On this day, he received many gifts from many disciples. Even a cold-hearted person like Yin Tianchou had a gentler expression and chatted with many of his disciples about their future plans.
"I'm telling you, Master, after half a year to keep up with my training, I plan to go to the sect's Alchemy Pavilion to try out whether I can become an alchemy apprentice."
"Master, like Senior Brother Zeng, my seventh uncle is a master craftsman of the sect's weapon pavilion. I also plan to try it out to see if I have that talent."
Cultivation is a lifelong matter. Even if you are a descendant of a family, the family does not have unlimited resources to provide you. To seek Taoism and practice immortality, everyone lacks resources. Especially if you strive to be the best and really have a heart to realize Taoism, you can learn one or two useful arts of cultivation.
, is almost a must.
As Zeng Mingxu, Cheng Xuesong and others responded one after another, Yin Tianchou's eyes gradually moved to Zhang Lie.
Seeing this, Zhang Lie stood up from behind the long table and said politely:
"Master, I plan to take over the task of guarding the spiritual field for the sect and go to Honghefang to guard the spiritual field."
"Guarding the Spiritual Field, Lao Wu, are you planning to become a Spiritual Planter? Honghefang is quite remote and far away from the sect. You can run to and from each class."
Li Manmei asked out of curiosity. The art of spiritual cultivation is a skill that few people choose among the hundreds of arts of cultivating immortals. Although it is easy to get started, it is too difficult to reach a very high level. Many monks would rather not learn it.
Waste your time on learning this art of cultivating immortals.
However, before Zhang Lie could answer, Yin Tianchou directly expressed his thoughts.
"Lao Wu, your cultivation qualifications are not good, and you have practiced the Purple Heart Dafa of the Red Eyebrow Ancestor. There is no shortage of cultivation resources in the early stage. You should practice wholeheartedly first and then earn cultivation resources when your cultivation level is relatively advanced. This is also
It is indeed a path that is very suitable for you. But you should also be careful. Honghefang is far away from the sect and where loose cultivators gather, so you may not be able to achieve purity there."
"Thank you Master for your teaching."
Immortal cultivators spend most of their lives in cultivation, but this cultivation is not just about refining spiritual energy and increasing mana.
Since the energy and spirit in the body of a cultivator is limited, there is also an upper limit on the daily Qi training time. Therefore, after the practice time has passed, it is only reasonable to spend the rest of the time practicing cultivating skills or meditating on exercises.
Zhang Lie is very aware that his cultivation qualifications are very poor, and the cultivation advantages brought by Suhui in his previous life are gradually decreasing.
If you want to succeed in building foundation in the future, you can no longer take the path chosen by most cultivators.
I can only focus on Qi training and swordsmanship, spending time and effort to reach heights in these two fields that are difficult for monks of the same level to reach.
"The Blazing Lotus Sword Technique and the Earthly Evil Sword Art, I will spend the next ten years learning them all from you. This is my only chance."
After the birthday banquet, Zhang Lie walked out of the cave, looked up at the sky, and saw clouds gathering, Zhang Lie whispered in his heart.
As time went by, days passed. After memorizing and dictating half of the Disha Sword Sutra, Zhang Lie and his fourth uncle Zhang Chuanli moved to Honghefang to guard the spiritual field for the sect. In this aspect, he could
Earn a small amount of spiritual stones, but they are also pure enough, suitable for concentrating your mind and meditating.
The only problem is that it is too far away from the sect. Whenever something happens, he returns to the sect and uses the light body lifting technique supplemented by sword control. It can completely exhaust the mana of a monk in the middle stage of Qi training. However, Zhang Lie used this
As a kind of training for one's own cultivation, running long distances consumes every ray of mana in the meridians. Although he is exhausted afterwards, but after many times, Zhang Lie can clearly feel that his body is
Adapting to this extreme state, even the power and purity of mana are slightly improved.
