Chapter 10: Elder Wu summons me, what the hell is this "Ma De possession"?
Information about lifespan was displayed on the sky.
The entire Douluo Continent was also plunged into a prolonged state of shock and longing.
The Core Formation stage takes five hundred years, and the Nascent Soul stage takes over a thousand years.
These stark figures are incredibly impactful for the Douluo Continent, where even titled Douluo struggle to live past two hundred years old.
Over the next few months, the images on the sky entered a relatively slow, fast-forwarded state.
After all, cultivators often go into seclusion for months or even years.
Through this perspective of accelerated time, the people of Douluo Continent also witnessed Zhang Tiezhu's transformation firsthand.
on the screen.
The outer disciple area of the Lingxiao Sect is located in a valley rich in spiritual energy.
Everywhere you look, there are well-arranged wooden houses and stone courtyards.
Zhang Tiezhu's daily life is very regular.
In the early morning, I would go to the spirit field to help the sect take care of some spirit herbs that emitted a faint glow. After finishing my work, I would return to my wooden house, sit cross-legged on the bed, and cultivate the "Eternal Spring Technique".
With the nourishment of spiritual energy, Zhang Tiezhu's originally withered and thin body began to gradually become stronger.
The calluses and dullness on his skin, left by years of hard work, are gradually fading away, replaced by a healthy complexion full of vitality.
Three months later.
With a gentle breeze blowing around Zhang Tiezhu, he successfully broke through to the third level of the Qi Refining stage.
Now, even without using any special techniques, he can easily lift a boulder weighing hundreds of kilograms using only his physical strength.
Furthermore, he was also skilled in using a basic spell called Fireball, which allowed him to condense a fireball of astonishing temperature at his fingertips.
See here.
The common people of Douluo Continent were even more envious.
Inside Soto.
Several farmers who had once worked with Zhang Tiezhu in the fields were gathered together, looking at the sky with envy on their faces.
"That kid Tiezhu, his ancestors' graves are really emitting auspicious smoke."
"Yeah, after going to that cultivation world, he's not only grown up to be fair and chubby, but he can also shoot fireballs."
"I think the power of that fireball is even greater than the soul skills released by those level 10 or higher soul masters in the city."
"Sigh, I hope I can be chosen by Sky Curtain next time."
Not just ordinary people.
Even many low-level Soul Masters were filled with envy at this moment.
After all, Zhang Tiezhu's life in the cultivation world seemed too comfortable. Every day, besides doing some farm work, he cultivated, and the sect would also give him a few low-grade spirit stones every month.
This is even more comfortable than the lives of many nobles in the Douluo Continent.
……
Shrek Academy.
Tang San sat under a big tree, holding a twig in his hand, and wrote and drew on the ground.
He had been analyzing the workings of the book "Changchun Gong".
"Although the technique is very basic, Zhang Tiezhu's strength has improved noticeably over the past three months."
"His current overall combat strength, combined with that fireball technique that can be cast instantly without chanting, is probably no weaker than a level 20 battle spirit master."
Tang San muttered to himself.
In three months, he went from a complete failure with no foundation to someone comparable to a Great Soul Master.
This cultivation speed has surpassed that of the so-called geniuses with innate full soul power in the Douluo Continent.
Yu Xiaogang, standing to the side, had a gloomy expression and remained silent.
The better Zhang Tiezhu behaved during this period, the more it felt like a slap in the face, a constant repetition of the previous one.
"Could it be that I was really wrong?" For the first time, Yu Xiaogang began to doubt himself.
Just when everyone in Douluo Continent thought that Zhang Tiezhu would continue to cultivate peacefully until the deadline for his return,
Suddenly, a new change occurred in the scene.
This morning.
Zhang Tiezhu had just returned from weeding in the spiritual field and hadn't even reached his wooden hut yet.
A streak of cyan sword light flashed across the sky.
A young man dressed in a moon-white inner disciple's robe landed in front of Zhang Tiezhu on a flying sword.
The young man looked arrogant and glanced at Zhang Tiezhu.
"You're Zhang Tiezhu?"
Zhang Tiezhu was startled and quickly bowed.
"Outer disciple Zhang Tiezhu greets inner disciple."
The young man nodded, his tone indifferent.
"Come with me. Elder Wu has emerged from seclusion and specifically requests to see you."
Zhang Tiezhu was stunned upon hearing this.
Several outer disciples passing by revealed expressions of envy and jealousy in their eyes.
Elder Wu is a powerful elder in the late Foundation Establishment stage of the Lingxiao Sect's inner sect.
He is usually aloof and difficult to even meet with inner disciples. Why would he suddenly want to meet an outer disciple who has only been a disciple for a few months?
Zhang Tiezhu was also full of doubts, but he dared not ask any more questions.
He quickly followed the young man, boarded an enlarged flying sword, and flew towards the main peak deep within the Lingxiao Sect.
……
On the sky.
As the flying sword ascended higher, the audience of Douluo Continent saw the entire Lingxiao Sect for the first time.
Amidst swirling clouds and mist.
Seven or eight towering peaks pierce the sky like sharp swords.
Cranes flew by from time to time in mid-air, emitting clear, melodious calls.
The waterfall cascades down a cliff thousands of meters high, shimmering with iridescent colors under the sunlight.
Various exquisite pavilions built on cliffs appear and disappear.
This scene, which resembled a fairyland, left many people in the Douluo Continent in awe.
"What a beautiful place."
Ning Fengzhi looked at the light screen and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
Compared to the Lingxiao Sect's headquarters, his proud Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect castle looked like a nouveau riche's earthen manor, lacking any of the otherworldly ethereal charm.
Soon, the flying sword stopped on the mountainside of a mountain called Cuixia Peak.
There is a cave dwelling here that looks very ancient.
Outside the cave, there were exotic flowers and herbs that emitted a rich fragrance, and two snow-white deer were leisurely grazing on the grass.
"Go in, Elder Wu is waiting for you inside."
The inner disciple pointed to the tightly closed stone door of the cave, then transformed into a streak of sword light and disappeared.
Zhang Tiezhu swallowed hard, straightened his clothes, and carefully stepped forward.
Before he could even knock, the heavy stone door opened by itself with a rumbling sound.
A warm breeze carrying a faint medicinal scent blew out from inside.
Zhang Tiezhu mustered his courage and went inside.
The cave was very spacious, and several fist-sized luminous pearls were embedded in the stone walls at the top, illuminating the interior as bright as day.
In the center of the hall stood a bronze alchemy furnace, about half a person's height, with a ghostly blue flame burning inside.
On the futon next to the alchemy furnace, an old man was sitting cross-legged.
The old man was wearing a gray Taoist robe, with gray hair and a long beard.
Although his face was covered with wrinkles, his complexion was very rosy, and his brows exuded a kind and gentle aura.
He truly embodies the legendary immortal demeanor.
"Disciple Zhang Tiezhu greets Elder Wu." Zhang Tiezhu quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Elder Wu slowly opened his eyes and looked Zhang Tiezhu up and down.
Then, he stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction.
"Not bad, you've reached the third level of Qi Refining in just three months. It seems you're quite diligent in your cultivation."
Elder Wu's voice was very gentle, giving people a feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.
He waved to Zhang Tiezhu.
"Get up, come closer and let this old man take a look."
Zhang Tiezhu stood up, flattered, and took a few steps forward.
Elder Wu stretched out a withered hand and placed it on Zhang Tiezhu's wrist, seemingly checking his meridians.
A moment later, Elder Wu withdrew his hand, his smile widening.
"The meridians are stable, and the spiritual energy is pure."
"Although your three elemental spiritual roots are not top-notch, your solid foundation ranks among the best of the outer disciples I have ever seen."
As Elder Wu spoke, he took out an exquisite white jade porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Zhang Tiezhu.
"This bottle contains three Yellow Dragon Pills."
"It can strengthen the foundation and cultivate vitality, accelerating the cultivation speed of disciples in the Qi Refining stage."
"It is fate that we met. I find you pleasing to the eye, so I will bestow this elixir upon you."
