Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 11: Learn from a teacher

Views:

At the top of Tianmen Peak, in Xiantian Hall, Lu Yang stood upright, respectfully waiting for his master to arrive.

The Xiantian Hall is cold, quiet and spotless. The smoke from the rising incense makes one’s heart peaceful.

Lu Yang noticed that there were three tablets enshrined in the hall, namely Xiantian Taoist, Guiyuan Tianzun, and Hanhai Taoist.

Lu Yang knew all three of them. They had extremely special significance in the Dao Sect:

Twelve thousand years ago, the Xiantian Taoist who walked out of the Taoist temple established his own mountain gate and founded the Wendao Sect. At that time, the Xiantian Taoist was just an ordinary cultivator. There were at least eight thousand people with his level of cultivation in the Central Continent. Therefore, when the Wendao Sect was first established, it was just a small sect.

One hundred thousand years ago, the world was in chaos, and an extraordinary genius emerged in the Dao Sect. In terms of talent for cultivating immortals, he was not even ranked in the top 50 at the time, but he was smart, good at making friends, loyal, and blessed with some mysterious luck. He rose in the troubled times, followed the trend of the times, stood at the forefront of the times, was unparalleled in his glory, and his cultivation was unmatched. His title was Guiyuan Tianzun.

The Wenda Sect flourished under the leadership of Guiyuan Tianzun, and it quickly became one of the most important sects at that time. At the 20,000-year celebration of the Wenda Sect, many close friends came to celebrate. He took this opportunity to jointly establish the title of the Five Great Immortal Sects with the four top immortal cultivators at that time, which was recognized by the world.

There is nothing eternal in the world, and no eternal glory. After another 50,000 years, the Wendao Sect became weak, and the elders in the sect were either approaching the end of their lives or had died a violent death. There were only a few who could hold up the situation, and none of the disciples were up to standard. The sect was faced with an awkward situation of a lack of young talents, and there were even rumors that the sect would be kicked out of the five major immortal sects.

Perhaps the Wendao Sect was really blessed with good luck. One day, an elder of the Wendao Sect went out to slay a demon and rescued a child from the ruins. He brought the child back to the sect and was surprised to find that the child was an extremely rare genius in cultivation. The child lived up to everyone's expectations and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds. Within a few years, he became the strongest person in the Tribulation Crossing Period at that time.

The child was named Hanhai Daojun, and was later called the ancestor of the revival of the Wendao Sect. He continued the glory of the Wendao Sect for 50,000 years, until today.

"Senior Sister, where is our master?" Lu Yang retracted his gaze and waited in the hall for a long time, but no one else showed up except the Senior Sister.

"Master is in seclusion now. He is in a critical period of cultivation and cannot be away. I will accept you as my disciple and teach you how to cultivate."

"Before we start practicing, let me briefly introduce our school to you. Master has very few rules. As long as you don't go too far, violate ethical principles, or cause the wrath of heaven and people, he won't care."

"But my bottom line is higher than his. I will take care of things that he won't."

"Master has four disciples. In addition to you and me, you have a senior brother and a senior sister. One of them is in the Western Buddhist Kingdom, and the other is in the Southern Demonic Territory. They don't return to the sect for many years, so it's difficult to see them."

“When you have achieved success in your cultivation and have the opportunity to travel around, you may meet them. As for now…” Yun Zhi paused, took out three ink portraits and laid them out in a row. They were the master, second senior brother, and third senior sister whom Lu Yang had never met.

The three people in the portrait were smiling very happily.

The master has white hair, and his eyes are not as cloudy as those of other old people. He looks like a hermit who likes to have fun and play with the world.

The second brother has a gentle smile, sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, and is as gentle as jade.

The third sister is a charming woman who brings disaster to the country and the people.

"Master specifically told me that there are five of us in our sect, including you. It would be too lonely for you and me to be your disciple. So Master specially prepared portraits of the three of them to represent them."

Lu Yang looked at the senior sister, then looked at the lifelike black and white portraits placed around him that seemed to be staring at him, and he inexplicably felt a chill down his spine.

Among the entire sect's entire clan of loyal heroes, only he and his senior sister were left.

Three more incense sticks appeared in front of Lu Yang. They were handed to him by Yun Zhi. "This is a letter incense. It can convey your thoughts. Lighting three incense sticks for Master can convey your gratitude and respect."

Three incense sticks were lit and inserted into the small incense burner placed in front of the master's portrait: "Master, bear witness. Master, please accept your disciple's greetings."

Now it's more like that.

After the apprenticeship, Lu Yang asked hesitantly, "Big Sister, although it may be a bit disrespectful to ask this, Master is still alive, right?"

Lu Yang was afraid that Yun Zhi would sneer and say, "Our master has passed away, and the higher-ups are keeping it a secret." Now that you know this secret, he cannot let you go.

Yunzhi was confused and didn't understand why Lu Yang asked this question.

"Of course I'm alive."

"I have seen your test results at Yanchuan Peak. You remember the locations of acupuncture points and meridians in the human body very accurately, and you can recite and memorize the basic mental methods. This is very good. Your enthusiasm for learning deserves praise."

"Then we will start the formal training."

When Lu Yang heard this, an excited smile appeared on his face and he listened more seriously.

He could finally start practicing.

When the formal training began, the eldest sister started by saying, "This is my first time teaching a disciple, and this is your first time being a disciple. You and I should just get along with each other."

"But you don't have to worry too much. I've made adequate preparations for today."

Yunzhi lined up various small medicine jars with the names of the pills on them. Lu Yang had heard of them:

The bone pill that can bring back to life human flesh and bones.

The Buddha Kingdom invented one of the series of creations for accumulating merits, the Seven-Level Pagoda Pill, which is worth saving a life than building a seven-level pagoda. Anyone who eats the Seven-Level Pagoda Pill will gain a share of merit from the Buddha Kingdom.

Nine-turn reincarnation pill. In the world of immortal cultivation, there is a saying that one must undergo nine reincarnations in exchange for one life.

With these pills, it would be difficult for Lu Yang to die.

"To train your Qi, you must first train your body. Since you have never been exposed to physical training, let's start from scratch."

Yunzhi casually cut through the space and took out two large water jars from the storage space. Hearing the dull sound of the water jars hitting the ground, Lu Yang's heart skipped a beat and he had a bad feeling.

"Sword cultivation emphasizes sword intent and arm strength, so the first thing to focus on when refining the body is to train arm strength. I will only demonstrate it once, so please watch carefully."

Yunzhi stepped on the edge of the water tank with both feet as if walking on flat ground. Then she pinched the edge of another water tank with one hand, gently lifted it up and let go. Before the water tank hit the ground, she pinched the edge of the water tank with her other hand again. She repeated this process. Her movements were smooth and fluid, which was pleasing to the eye.

If you don't consider how your arms feel, this method can indeed help you build arm strength.

“Just do it to this extent.”

Yunzhi put down the water tank and spoke lightly.

Lu Yang swallowed his saliva in fear. He could tell without even lifting it that the water tank was half a person's height. It would be more than enough to stuff him into the tank, fill it with sand and bury him in the ground.

It's a life-threatening pace to play with such a big tank.

Lu Yang strode forward, held his breath, and picked up the water tank with one hand, the whole action was done in one go.

I couldn't lift it.

He exerted force with both hands, using all his strength, and the water tank shook reluctantly, indicating that Lu Yang had indeed tried very hard.
