Last time, it was said that Bai Zhongyu was rescued by a "savage" and sent to the palace of the "Great Shang Kingdom". He met "Zichou" again and was shocked by his super memory, so he decided to take him away.
"I dare to ask Master Immortal, is there anything wrong with me? I hope you can explain it to me. I'm very grateful!" Zichou responded seriously.
"Haha, boy, there is indeed something 'wrong' about you!" Bai Zhongyu looked strange: "How did you get your photographic memory?"
"Uh... I don't know, I don't know." When Zichou thought of his tragic life experience, he once again told the details of his past and present lives.
Bai Zhongyu frowned when he heard this, and said to himself: "Can it be said that as long as the ghost does not drink 'Meng Po Soup' before reincarnation, it will..."
"Uh... this... I don't know." Zichou added, "But the one who calls himself the 'Five Divine Beasts' said that he wants to give the villain a great opportunity."
"Oh? Five divine beasts? What chance? Tell me!" Bai Zhongyu was very interested after hearing this, but he was disgusted when he learned that it was given the "Five Elements Miscellaneous Spiritual Roots".
In fact, there is a consensus in the "cultivation world" that the more types of "spiritual roots" a "cultivation person" has, the more unfavorable it is for future practice, because every time a "spiritual root" is added, the "cultivation person" will "When refining "Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi", it will consume twice as much time and energy, and the efficiency is too low!
Therefore, in the "cultivation world", the "five elements miscellaneous spiritual roots" are considered to be "pseudo spiritual roots", which is equivalent to "ordinary people" without "spiritual roots".
Relatively speaking, although the "four elements miscellaneous spiritual roots" are slightly stronger than the "pseudo spiritual roots", they are also considered to be "waste spiritual roots" and have no hope of "building a foundation" throughout their lives.
Only those who have reached the "Three Elements of Miscellaneous Spiritual Roots" will be rejected by the "cultivation forces". They euphemistically call them "human spiritual roots" and can be regarded as "talents".
As for those with "two lines of mixed spiritual roots" and "single spiritual roots", they are euphemistically called "earth spiritual roots" and "celestial spiritual roots", which are the top three talents of "heaven, earth and man".
The potential of "Human Spiritual Roots" usually means cultivating to the "Later Stage of Foundation Building", those with "Earth Spiritual Roots" can reach the "True Alchemy Stage", and those with "Heavenly Spiritual Roots" are expected to transform into infants.
Therefore, all "cultivation forces" attach great importance to the potential of the disciples and disciples they recruit, and even fight for "geniuses"!
This is a common practice in the "cultivation world". The so-called "wealth and law couple's earthly tools" are the five elements of cultivation, each of which is indispensable. Among them, "wealth" means "resources", "fa" means "inheritance", "couple" means "taoist couple", "land" means "cave", and "vessel" means "dharma implement". The five elements can be extended infinitely. For example, "inheritance of skills" requires "high-quality students"!
"Master Immortal, I have told you everything I know, so can you also tell me about 'cultivating immortality'?"
"Haha, why not?" Bai Zhongyu thought for a moment and said, "Boy, you don't know something. The 'cultivation world' is not as beautiful as you think!"
"Oh? Why did the Immortal Master say this? Please give me some advice from the Immortal Master!" Zichou also learned a lot of etiquette in the process of being the "Prince's companion".
"Uh... Let me tell you this, 'cultivating immortality' is just a process, but 'cultivation' is the result. 'The road walks alone' cannot be said, cannot be said."
"The road travels alone? I dare to ask Master Immortal, isn't 'cultivating immortality' for the purpose of 'cultivating truth'? Or..." Although Zichou is young, he seems to have ideas.
"Haha, little guy, remember it. 'Cultivation of immortality' is just for the purpose of 'becoming an immortal', that is, 'immortality', but you will still die when the end is approaching." Bai Zhongyu said.
"Ah? How could this happen? What about 'cultivation'? Will he die of old age in the end?" Zi Chou has been a man for two generations and has his own understanding of "life" and "death".
"This...'cultivation' is to find the 'true self' through 'cultivation'. Whether you will die of old age in the end depends on what level of cultivation you can achieve?"
"Oh? If that's the case, then according to the words of 'Master Immortal', 'cultivation' may be more promising than 'cultivation of immortality', and maybe you don't have to die! Haha."
"Haha, silly boy, what are you thinking about? With your 'Five Elements Miscellaneous Spiritual Roots', just go ahead and dream! Anyway, this grandmaster will not accept you as his disciple!"
"Uh... Master Immortal, please calm down. I was just joking." Zichou quickly apologized: "However, I really don't want to die anymore!"
"You don't want to die again? What do you mean? After your death in this life, do you not plan to drink 'Meng Po Soup' to wash away your memory before reincarnation in the next life? Do you still want to be reincarnated into a good fetus and obtain better spiritual root qualifications? Do you still want to continue cultivating immortality and live forever? Are you thinking too much?" Bai Zhongyu scolded with a smile.
"Uh... Immortal Master Mingzhi clearly knows that this villain has this intention, but..." Zichou hesitated and couldn't help but said: "Can you accept me as your disciple?"
"Haha, accepting you as my disciple? What a joke!" Bai Zhongyu was amused: "With your 'waste spirit root', you probably won't be able to break through the early stage of Qi refining in your lifetime?"
"In the early stage of Qi refining? What state is it? How long can you live?" After hearing this, Zi Chou was not discouraged, but was curious: "Please clear up the immortal master's doubts."
"Uh... this... the 'Qi Refining Period' is divided into nine levels of small realms, commonly known as the 'Nine Heavens'. Every three levels counts as one period, and the early stage is the 'Third Heaven'."
"Third level of Qi refining? How long can I live?"————"I can live up to 120 years!"
"Uh...then if we continue to improve our cultivation level before the deadline is approaching, is it...?"————"Yes, you can live forever!"
"Thank you, Master Immortal, for clarifying your doubts. I understand." Zi Chou was overjoyed: "I would like to ask Master Immortal to point out a clear path. I am very grateful."
"Haha, it's easy to say. Since we meet each other, it is fate." Bai Zhongyu said with a smile: "Although you and I have no relationship between master and disciple, I can take you back to the master's door."
"Ah? Really? Master Immortal, you are so kind! You are like a villain's reborn parent! Wow." Zi Chou cried with joy and knelt down.
"What's the big deal?" Bai Zhongyu said with a serious look on his face: "But the ugly thing is ahead. The journey of cultivation is extremely dangerous. It is inevitable that the weak will be eaten by the strong, and your body will die in an instant. Therefore, after I take you back to the sect, Everything depends on yourself, only if your life is not short-lived can you live forever."
"Only if your life is not short can you live forever? This... I dare to ask the immortal master, what does this mean?" - "Huh, if you don't commit suicide, you won't die! Do you understand?"
"Uh... I understand, little man. Thank you for your guidance, Master Immortal." - "Okay, it's getting late, we should get on our way."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Zhongyu opened his mouth and spit out a crystal flying sword about a foot long. He made a finger and it rose up in the wind, hovering in the air behind the door panel.
At this time, Bai Zhongyu pulled Zichou and jumped up, and easily arrived on top of the "Flying Sword". Before Zichou could react, he continued to seal a little more, and a layer of white mist suddenly rose up on the huge flying sword. The light shield blew away the strong wind blowing on the two of them, streaking across the sky like a shooting star.
This method of "flying with a sword" is simply too simple for "cultivators". Even "Qi Refining Spirit Disciples" can use it as long as they can refine "magic weapons" and release "true essence". "True essence" turns into "mana" and acts on the "magic weapon", thereby producing an "anti-gravity" effect and "thrust" at the same time.
Of course, the above is just the "weapon control" mode of the ordinary "Dharma Cultivation". If it is switched to the "Sword Cultivation" mode of flying with a sword, the efficiency and speed will suddenly increase!
However, the shortest distance from "Fuso Island" to "Haixi Continent" is hundreds of thousands of miles away, that is, flying north from "Kyushu Island" across the sea to the "Korean Peninsula" in the "Liaodong Region". But in this case, it might be intercepted halfway by the "squid spirit" who suffered a big loss, which would be bad.
If you fly all the way from "Shikoku Island" to the west, you have to cross at least two million miles of sea to reach the "Central Plains Region" of the "Hercynian Continent".
As a result, even if Bai Zhongyu, as the "Jindan Zhenren", can fly a hundred thousand miles in a day with his sword, he may not be able to return to land until a month later!
This is unimaginable for Bai Zhongyu, who has not yet fully recovered from his injury. After all, there are too many monsters in the sea and too few places to stay.
So, after some tangle, Bai Zhongyu decided to risk going north, thinking that if he didn't encounter that damn "monster" to stop him, he could return to the sect in less than ten days. But fortunately, there were no dangers along the way, and no big squid monster blocked the way. It was really a blessing among misfortunes!
After returning to the sect, Bai Zhongyu hurriedly sent Zichou to the "outer disciple" registration office to sign up for naturalization, but he went straight to the mountain gate cave to retreat.
After all, it was a good trip. I originally wanted to sneak to the territory of the "Poisonous Dragon Clan" outside the sea to find my old sweetheart to warm up for a while. However, I didn't expect that I would end up in such a bad thing. Not only was I injured by a monster, but I was still there. Halfway through, he became soft-hearted and took in a "waste" with "pseudo-spiritual roots"!
However, for Zichou, this was a major breakthrough in his life. At least he had the opportunity to try the feat of cultivating immortality.
At this time, it was not yet time for the "Changbai Sect" to recruit "outer disciples" every ten years, because it had only been seven years since the last "big opening of the mountain gate".
However, this does not mean that there is no way for outsiders to seek immortality, because the recommender's "token" can be presented to prove that this person can be temporarily stored here.
When the "outer deacon" suddenly saw Bai Zhongyu personally sending a handsome boy who was only ten years old in Confucian robes, he couldn't help but be very curious.
After all, Bai Zhongyu's romantic affair has long been spread throughout the "Liaodong area". Moreover, he was escorting him personally. It's hard not to make people suspicious?
But when the "deacon" passed the preliminary test of the "specific magic weapon" and discovered that the little boy only had "pseudo spiritual roots", this conjecture was further confirmed.
"Oh, is it Uncle Bai? What are you..." An "Outer Sect Deacon" from the "Early Foundation Establishment Stage" saw the elder from the "True Alchemy Stage" arriving and immediately greeted him.
"Stop blabbering and get down to business!" Bai Zhongyu glanced at the other party and said with a solemn expression, "I brought him here. Please take good care of him in the future."
As soon as he finished speaking, the "Elder Bai" turned into a ray of light and flew straight to the mountain gate without looking back, leaving only the bewildered outer gate deacon.
"Uh... this little brother, looking at your handsome appearance, could it be that you have a close relationship with this 'Inner Sect Elder'? I'm going to let Ye Fang and Tian become the Outer Sect Deacon."
"The little man Zichou, I have met 'Master Ye Xian'." Zichou did not dare to tell him because Bai Zhongyu personally escorted him. Instead, he respectfully performed a Confucian courtesy.
"Hey, brother, you are very polite." Ye Fang, a middle-aged man in gray robe, quickly returned the gift and said, "Please tell me your name and where is your home?"
"Uh... the nickname is 'Zichou', and the name is... 'Zhou Jun'." Zichou thought for a moment, frowned and said, "Both of his parents died when he was young, and he was raised entirely by his enemies?"
"What? You were raised by your enemies? This is impossible, right? How could such a ridiculous thing happen in this world? Please tell me in detail!"
In the "world of cultivation", all the forces, large and small, are on guard against each other. They are most afraid of hostile forces using dirty tricks to cause destruction, such as sealing the cultivation base and getting through.
"Indeed! Please give me a chance, Master Immortal Master. If you can cultivate immortality and seek immortality, you will be rewarded generously one day!" After saying that, he knelt down and kowtowed.
