In his previous life, Zhang Zhixuan was Zhou Boyong, a young man from Earth who liked to seek immortality. Because he was unable to meditate, he was reincarnated into this world of immortals when he woke up.
His mother was not a cultivator. She had damaged her roots early in giving birth to him, and she passed away after only two or three years.
His father's spiritual talent was not good either. He was over forty and his cultivation level was only at the third level of Qi training. He was killed by his enemies when Zhang Zhixuan was eight years old.
The three generations of his ancestors were also ordinary people, and their ancestors had already passed away and withered away.
After his parents passed away, Zhang Zhixuan lost the support of his biological relatives when he was young. It was originally difficult to survive in this dangerous world.
Fortunately, when he was six years old, he was found to have spiritual roots. He relied on the protection of his family to survive in this difficult and dangerous world. He was also able to learn Taoism, take spiritual pills, and realize his wishes in his previous life. In this Taoism
Cultivation continues in the world where the Dharma appears.
Because his spiritual root qualifications are better than those of his father, and because he practices hard, even though he is still underage, Zhang Zhixuan's cultivation level has far exceeded that of his father.
Two years ago, his cultivation had reached the fifth level of Qi training. This time, he broke through the barrier and reached the sixth level of Qi training.
There is only one step left to break through the late stage of Qi training, and then I will be more confident about going down the mountain to avenge my father.
When he first came to this world, Zhang Zhixuan did not recall the memories of his previous life due to underdeveloped brain. It was not until he was six years old that he gradually recovered his past life memories, and only after he was twelve years old did he fully remember the events of his previous life.
Even so, he has a reputation for being precocious after the age of six. Because of the memory bonus of his previous life, his understanding ability is far beyond that of ordinary children, and his personality is relatively mature, far more mature and stable than teenagers.
In just half a year after the age of six, he had already recognized the words of this world and memorized all the meridians and acupoints. He began to practice under the guidance of his father.
In just one year, his cultivation level has broken through the innate stage and entered the Qi training stage, and then it has advanced by leaps and bounds at a rate of almost one level per year.
In just seven years since then, he has passed five levels in a row and entered the sixth level of Qi training.
For monks to practice, the younger they are, the greater the benefits will be.
For humans with spiritual roots, their meridians are naturally thicker than ordinary people, and they gradually become blocked until they reach adulthood at the age of eighteen.
If you start practicing after your meridians are completely blocked, even a monk with relatively good spiritual roots will take more than ten years to reach the first innate stage.
Unfortunately, limited by the wisdom and experience of children, they cannot distinguish the meridians and acupoints at all, nor can they understand the profound mysterious methods, and they simply do not have the ability, wisdom, and experience to complete the practice.
Children usually become literate around the age of six.
After the age of nine, he began to understand the meridians and acupoints, understand Taoist terminology, and come into contact with the mysterious methods of Xuan Gong.
When he was eleven or twelve years old, he began to practice Kung Fu under the guidance of his teachers and relatives. He started with simple internal Kung Fu and gradually opened up his meridians to complete the innate stage of practice.
When I was fifteen or sixteen years old, my wisdom had grown, and I had some experience. After that, I began to learn immortal cultivation techniques, refine spiritual energy and store it in the acupoints and Dantian.
The Xiantian stage is the first realm for monks to practice. This realm can be said to be simple or very simple, but it can also be said to be difficult.
When monks practice in the innate stage, they only need to open up the eight extraordinary meridians of the body, gradually complete the circulation of internal energy, and then guide it into the Dantian.
It opens the eight extraordinary meridians and the two bridges of heaven and earth, completing the cycle of introducing Qi into the body.
Then the spiritual energy is introduced into the meridians and stored in the Dantian. Even if the innate stage of practice is completed, the Qi training stage is entered.
In this realm, the easiest thing to cultivate is a newly born baby, because babies are not polluted by acquired Qi. If they can practice, they can break through the innateness in an instant and become a monk in the Qi training stage.
Children before the age of six still have a breath of innate energy in their bodies, so it is relatively easy to complete this step. Even monks with ordinary spiritual roots can successfully break through the innate energy and refine spiritual energy in less than a year.
After adulthood, the meridians in the body are blocked. If you want to open the meridians, you will need more resources and spend a lot of time.
Even for a monk with the best spiritual roots, it would take three years to fully open up the meridians throughout his body.
After reaching the age of sixty, even if one possesses Heavenly Spiritual Roots, one has missed the time to practice. Even if one practices until old age, he may not be able to successfully build the foundation.
Relying on the wisdom of his previous life, Zhang Zhixuan is already a big step ahead of ordinary monks.
When he was sixteen years old, he had already reached the sixth level of Qi training.
According to Zhang Zhixuan's cultivation speed, it is much faster than ordinary three spiritual root monks.
As for the average Three Spiritual Root cultivators, at his age, they may have just broken through the innate stage and entered the first level of Qi training stage.
Only when you are around thirty or forty years old can you break through the late stage of Qi training. Before you are sixty years old, you can enter the ninth level of Qi training and have the opportunity to try your hand at the foundation-building realm.
Only those core disciples of famous sects with abundant cultivation resources and enough spiritual pills and spiritual stones can save half the time.
Because of a war thirty years ago, the Zhang family lost Jiuhua Mountain, the family's important place, and even the spirit-detecting platform on Jiuhua Mountain was lost.
Therefore, in the past few decades, the Zhang family monks have not been able to measure the attributes of spiritual roots, and the young Zhang family monks have not been able to choose appropriate exercises and can only rely on the experience of the family elders to guide their practice.
As a result, you can't choose a suitable exercise method, which will waste some practice time.
In the past thirty years, the monks who have come down from the Zhang family as adults are often only at the first or second level of Qi training.
Compared with these fellows, Zhang Zhixuan's cultivation level is undoubtedly much higher.
Even among the family monks who are in their thirties and forties, many of their cultivation levels are not as good as that of a young man like Zhang Zhixuan.
Moreover, Zhang Zhixuan's character is young and mature. Although he is in cultivation and experience, he is still not as good as the dozen or so backbones of the Zhang family.
But compared to the fledgling middle school boy, he will be safer at the foot of the mountain and more capable of facing various threats in the world of immortality.
That's why the second elder Zhang Mengling wanted to drag him down the mountain to make up for the shortcomings of the monks at the foot of the mountain due to lack of manpower.
After hearing what Zhang Mengqian said, Zhang Zhixuan nodded slightly and said: "My nephew already knows what Uncle Nineteenth thinks.
According to the rules of the family, my nephew still has two years to practice. It is my nephew’s interests that I have to fight for with all my strength. I wonder what Uncle Seventeen thinks?"
The middle-aged Taoist priest Zhang Mengqian smiled and said solemnly: "Family rules are rules, but they must be adapted to reality.
You already know the situation at home. In the past few decades, due to the injury of the clan leader, the strength of the clan has declined a lot.
The family's business has become increasingly difficult, and we have already been unable to make ends meet. We are in urgent need of young people like you to supplement our efforts.
If you lose the protection of your family, what will you do with your future practice?
Do you want to break up your family and go out to work as a casual cultivator?
If you become a casual cultivator, you will have to rush for a spiritual medicine or a spiritual stone every day.
Wealthy couple and lawless land, is this what you want?"
Zhang Zhixuan said: "My nephew is naturally willing to contribute to the family. Without the family's upbringing, inheritance, protection and safety, my nephew would not be where he is today."
But if there is no spiritual vein after coming down the mountain, what will happen to my nephew’s future practice?”
Zhang Mengjian said: "Your nineteenth uncle will consider this for you. Although the spiritual energy at the foot of the mountain is thin and the conditions are far inferior to those on the mountain, there are always one or two spiritual places that can always allow you to continue practicing."
