After burying Sidao's ashes in the family cemetery, Zhang Zhixuan also paid homage to the patriarch, his fourth uncle and other elders who had taken care of him.
Now, there are more than 600 monks buried in the family cemetery. Most of the names on these tombstones are Zhang Zhixuan's descendants, mainly innate and qi-training monks.
At that time, Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan settled in Lingjing Mountain and had many contacts with the young monks at home. Si Dao, Si Hong, Tong Huai, and Si Jin were the best among them, but more monks had long since turned into a handful of loess.
.
After Zhang Zhixuan moved to Montenegro, he had less and less contact with the low-level monks in his family. Zhang Zhixuan had never met many of the people buried in the family cemetery, had never heard their names, and was not familiar with them even if he met them.
After burning some paper money in front of the tombstones of the patriarch, fourth uncle and others, Zhang Zhixuan was about to return to Lingjing Mountain, but found that Han Yan had also arrived at the family cemetery.
"You just came back?"
Han Yan nodded lonely and said: "Well, after receiving the news that Si Dao was critically ill, I went to Qingyang Mountain first. Unexpectedly, I arrived a step late, and I didn't see him for the last time."
Zhang Zhixuan knew that Han Yan and Sidao also had a close relationship.
Thinking about it, Tongcheng can build its foundation mainly by relying on the support of Han Yan.
Most of the good deeds they exchanged for the Foundation Establishment Pills came from Han Yan. Han Yan was actually not rich back then, and spent almost everything he had to help them.
Unexpectedly, the two people who were carefully selected to join the sect did not have a smooth spiritual path. They were confused and mistakenly took the elixir and ruined their path. Their luck in Tongcheng was even worse, and they followed Lu Hongniang's fate in a confused way.
The mouth of the mourning beast.
Zhang Zhixuan and Han Yan had not seen each other for more than five years. When they met Zhang Zhixuan, Han Yan seemed to have a thousand words to express the pain of missing each other.
But in the end, he suppressed the emotions in his heart and asked: "Did things go smoothly when I went to Dazhou this time? It has been five years since you left, and there has been no news. If the Soul Lantern of the Zushi Hall was not safe and sound, maybe I
I’m going to Dazhou to find you.”
Zhang Zhixuan nodded lightly and said: "There were some twists and turns on the road. It was not very smooth. I couldn't find the elixir-forming spiritual object for you. It seems that I can only take a risk at the Tianyuan Sect ruins.
In addition, this time when I went out, I also made a grudge against the Heavenly Puppet Sect and killed one of their late-stage Jindan masters. When you meet the Heavenly Puppet Sect monks in the future, you have to be more careful and guard against them. But you finally gained something.
I have captured a fifth-level low-grade puppet beast. I am going to give this puppet beast to you for sacrifice. With this puppet beast, you can also intervene in the battles of the Golden Core monk level."
"I'm not in a hurry here. I still have more than four years of life left, and there are still many opportunities to form pills. You should have listened to me last time and don't argue with Senior Sister Luo. As a result, you have been jumping up and down for several years.
, which caused the monks of the sect to complain. Even Patriarch Lu has a strong opinion of you, thinking that you don’t care about the overall situation and only want to benefit yourself."
Zhang Zhixuan shook his head and said: "It's about the opportunity to form an elixir. How can I not fight for you? If you form a golden elixir, your status will be turned upside down. Why should you care about what others think?"
In the end, the demon pill was given to Luo Ziyan, and she couldn't go any further. Your spiritual roots are better, maybe if the demon pill was given to you, the sect might have a golden elixir master?"
"In the end, the sect must talk about merit, seniority, and fairness. Even if I form a golden elixir and make the sect dissatisfied. Once a foreign enemy invades, I'm afraid the whole sect will be full of traitors. Just rely on the three of us and Tiantai Peak.
Our family simply cannot support such a big situation. If we want to use the power of outsiders, we need to be fair, just and honest."
Han Yan's retort left Zhang Zhixuan speechless and could only smile bitterly: "You can always tell a lot of great truths, but it's not easy for the three of us to get to where we are today.
Those buried in this cemetery are all our relatives, the parents who love us the most, the old patriarchs who have given us the greatest help on our journey, the ninth and fourth uncles, and other elders have all turned into a handful of loess. I don’t want you to change either.
If this is the case, when I miss you in the future, I will stay here."
Hearing Zhang Zhixuan speak these emotional words, Han Yan hugged him tightly, and the tears in his eyes continued to stay like broken pearls.
When a monk becomes enlightened, he is doomed to be alone.
Most of their parents, wives, children, relatives and friends cannot keep up with the pace. The process of cutting off secular ties is easy to say, but in fact it is as uncomfortable as a sharp knife piercing the heart.
Especially the relationship between Zhang Zhixuan and Han Yan, who have supported each other for hundreds of years, and their relationship is far beyond ordinary.
Once the day comes when Han Yan will sit down and die, it will be even more difficult for him to accept.
Although the Cold Smoke Spiritual Root is good, the chances of forming a golden elixir are not small.
But going further up, the two crucial steps of becoming a Yuanying and transforming into a Yuanshen, are extremely difficult to take.
This is very different from Zhang Zhixuan's Qing Chan. Zhang Zhixuan and the two can practice the Heavenly Book Kung Fu. Breaking through the bottleneck is only half as difficult as that of normal monks. As long as they don't die in the middle, they have a great chance of ascending to the upper world and becoming immortals and ancestors.
Han Yan cannot practice the Heavenly Book technique, and he himself is not a genius like Taoist Yu who only meets once in ten thousand years in the world of immortality. He is not a natural seed of immortality.
She wants to become an immortal, but even if Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan try their best to support her, the chance is very slim.
It is precisely because of this concern that Zhang Zhixuan will fight for every opportunity for her, even if he does not care about his face, is messy and makes people laugh, he doesn't care at all.
Compared to being free and happy, what does the grievance of this moment count?
"Zhixuan, don't worry, I will definitely follow your footsteps!"
Although Han Yan's ambition is very firm, Zhang Zhixuan knows that there are hundreds of millions of monks in the world of immortality who want to become immortals, but only a handful of monks can actually achieve this.
Among the monks in the past ten thousand years, only Qingyunzi has the confidence to break through the realm and ascend, becoming an immortal and becoming an ancestor.
Even Taoist Yu, who lived for more than five thousand years and whose thirteen disciples formed the Nascent Soul, was not even 20% sure of achieving this step.
Zhang Zhixuan carries the Heavenly Book, and no one except Qing Chan knows it at all.
Maybe Master Liu Lingjun and his disciples had some guesses and knew that they had the Heavenly Book on them, but they didn't know the details of the Heavenly Book technique.
On the contrary, Han Yan was taught by Zhang Zhixuan many years ago and learned the Qi Accumulation Technique.
It's a pity that although she has good spiritual roots, she is naturally unable to practice the Qi Accumulation Technique and cannot refine the innate purple energy, so it is naturally impossible for her to practice subsequent techniques.
Starting from the Zifu period, compared with Zhang Zhixuan and the other two, Han Yan's cultivation gradually fell behind.
Objective laws are independent of human will and are limited by innate conditions. If you want to be on par with Zhang Zhixuan and Zhang Zhixuan on the road, apart from the support of Zhang Zhixuan and Zhang Zhixuan in terms of resources, you can only rely on illusory opportunities.
The two paid homage to their ancestors and returned to the underground cave of Lingjing Mountain together. There was one year left before the time agreed with Geng Jinglong and others, and Qingchan had also refined the teleportation talisman.
This time when they returned to Lingjing Mountain, they were going to Qingli Sea to explore the ruins of Tianyuan Sect for the second time to see if they could get the Five Elements Spirit Fruit and collect pill-forming spiritual objects for Han Yan.
