In the dark desert, Zhang Tie's mental power continued to repeat the extremely boring training process in the void...
This cultivation process is so monotonous that it can drive people crazy. Zhang Tie constantly condenses the two energies in the void. After condensing, he continues to let the two energies dissipate naturally. This process is not repeated ten times or eight times.
Instead, it was repeated thousands of times, until Zhang Tie's spirit was completely numb, and everything turned into instinctive and mechanical reactions, which were still continuing.
Zhang Tie hopes that one day he can be as free as breathing when kinetic energy is generated.
To achieve this goal, the process must be made as simple as breathing.
This requires cultivation, hard training, and repeating one thing countless times in order to make a slight improvement. In such training, the only thing that will accompany you is loneliness and emptiness.
It is difficult to find anything fair in the world. Perhaps the only fair thing is time. Time is the same for everyone. You live a day and others live a day. The only difference is what you spend your time on. As time goes by,
, the things you water will take root, sprout, grow, flourish, bloom corresponding flowers, and produce corresponding fruits, some fruits are good, some fruits are evil, and some fruits are evil.
The fruits are beautiful, some are ugly, some are sweet, some are bitter...
In every field, there are strong people, and the so-called strong people are definitely the people who have spent the most time in that field.
This is Zhang Tie's first real retreat after coming to the Sky World.
In such a shut-in, Zhang Tie forgot about time and the disturbances in the outside world. He was immersed in cultivation. It was not until the jade tablet he carried with him vibrated regularly that Zhang Tie emerged from that state.
He stepped back from it and opened his eyes.
A message came from the jade tablet, which was sent by Leng Manxue to His Majesty, Wu Qiankun of the Wa Palace, asking for an audience.
Take him to the Yangxin Hall, I will be there soon.
yes!
After receiving the news, Zhang Tie stood up and moved his body. He made several difficult movements on the spot that others thought were unbelievable. During those movements, the muscles and bones of his body exploded like firecrackers.
ring.
After completing those few movements, Zhang Tiecai felt that his whole mind, spirit, and body finally became active again.
I glanced at the circle of special candles placed on the candlestick in the corner of the room. One of the candles had been completely extinguished, leaving only a base and a one-foot-long candle with thirty marks on it.
Twelve of them were burnt, but the remaining ten have not been lit, which means that I spent forty-two days in retreat this time.
There is no such thing as a clock in the Sky World. The candle is used to record time. The candle is not an ordinary candle, but is called a jade fire candle. It is a specialty of the Sky World. There are several types of jade fire candles, the most common
The length of a jade fire candle is just one foot, and the entire jade fire candle is divided into thirty scales. It takes exactly thirty days from lighting to burning out. It can consume about one centimeter a day. As long as the consumption of the jade fire candle is
, you can judge how much time has been used, which is very convenient. Some jade fire candles can even take a year to light, and the longest jade fire candle can even take a dozen years to light.
In addition to keeping time, after the jade fire candle is lit, it will also leave a faint strange fragrance in the air. That fragrance can repel mosquitoes and beasts, and can also prevent cultivators from going crazy. Therefore, this jade fire candle is also
It has become something that practitioners and generals in the Sky Realm often use during retreat, and it is even an indispensable thing.
The jade fire candle bloomed with a warm yellow light, illuminating a corner of the secret room where Zhang Tie was retreating with a warm color, while most of the secret room was in darkness.
Zhang Tie walked to the candlestick, extinguished the jade fire candle, and then opened the light shield of the night pearl in the secret room, and the entire secret room suddenly became bright.
Zhang Tie pushed open the door of the secret room. There was a secret passage outside the door. Next to the secret passage was a staircase going up. The staircase was made of white jade. On both sides of the staircase, there were luminous pearls inlaid every few meters. Zhang Tie
I walked up the white jade steps that were winding step by step. I walked up nearly two hundred meters and passed through several special protective measures before arriving at the Jiaotai Hall.
The place where the Dragon King retreats is naturally heavily restricted. No one can enter, and it is not easy to destroy. Of course, you can also practice in the Jiaotai Palace, but the practice in the Jiaotai Palace is fine for a short time, but if you need to retreat for a long time
, it is safest to stay in the secret retreat room underground in Jiaotai Hall.
There are several secret passages in the underground seclusion chamber that lead to different places in Dragon Emperor City. One of the secret passages can lead as far as a mountain outside Dragon Imperial City. After constructing those secret passages, the person responsible for
The craftsmen who built the secret passages were all given drugs to erase their relevant memories. Now, only Zhang Tie and Leng Manxue know about those secret passages in the entire Dragon Emperor City.
When Zhang Tie opened the door of Jiaotai Hall and walked out of Jiaotai Hall, the bright and dazzling eyes outside and the happy chirping of birds finally made Zhang Tie feel like he was back among the crowd.
"See your Majesty..." Several divine generals and guards guarding outside the Jiaotai Palace saluted Zhang Tie together with Leng Manxue, who was already waiting here.
Zhang Tie has been in seclusion below these days, but above, a group of divine generals and guards in the Forbidden City have been guarding the Jiaotai Hall in shifts, never taking a break, and Leng Manxue is here to welcome Zhang Tie.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Zhang Tie said to the generals with a smile.
"This is our duty!" Several god generals were flattered and hurriedly bowed again and said.
"If everyone can do their part well, our Dragon King Temple will surely rise again one day!" Zhang Tie nodded, encouraged, and then walked to the Yangxin Palace with Leng Manxue.
Along the way, Leng Manxue was one step behind Zhang Tie, and her eyes quietly stared at Zhang Tie several times.
"What, are there flowers on my face?" Zhang Tie asked Leng Manxue.
"This retreat, Your Majesty seems...seems...to feel a lot more relaxed all of a sudden!" A woman's intuition is sometimes stronger than the consciousness of a holy knight, and Leng Manxue keenly discovered something different about Zhang Tie.
something.
"Really, I think so too!" Zhang Tie nodded. This retreat, for him, in addition to cultivation, these dozens of days of pure and ascetic practice of abandoning wealth, sex, fame, food, and sleep are also a great opportunity for Zhang Tie.
A mental relaxation and return. In this relaxation and return, Zhang Tie felt that he had completely broken free from the trivial matters in the Dragon Emperor Temple, just like climbing out of a quagmire, and once again had that kind of freedom and ease.
Compared with the position of the Dragon King, Zhang Tie feels that this feeling is what he likes, and this is the true self.
But life is often contradictory. Becoming the Dragon King is certainly not Zhang Tie's original intention. Zhang Tie has also paid a lot for this position, but in the position of Dragon King, Zhang Tie can also enjoy many things that he has never enjoyed before.
privileges and vast resources.
"Did Wu Qiankun bring anything?" Zhang Tie asked Leng Manxue.
"Following Wu Qiankun, there were also several divine generals from the Wa Palace. Those generals brought five huge iron boxes. Wu Qiankun said that they were what His Majesty needed. He didn't let me check them, so I asked those generals to check them.
The god general of the Wa Palace is waiting outside the Yangxin Hall with an iron box..."
