Volume 1 Travels Chapter 4 Choices
After settling down, Zhang Fan finally decided to read the two books given by Elder Situ first, and familiarize himself with the situation in this world first. Zhang Fan, who had just arrived in this world, did not look for a place to rest, and was anxious to understand the current environment, so he sat cross-legged in a corner outside the main hall, meditating and checking two books. The crescent moon had risen, and the light of the crescent moon was bright enough for him to read a book.
Two books, one titled "The Earth", deals with the known state of the world. It turns out that the name of this world is Taixu Tian, the earth is infinite, no one has ever explored the edge, the known races have reached hundreds, there are seven continents, and the continent where they are currently located is called Zhongzhou Continent. The Zhongzhou continent is thousands of miles in circumference, and the continent is ruled by three major races, namely the wing tribe, the beast race, and the sea tribe, and the human race is just a small race in the remote part of the Zhongzhou continent. The place where he is currently located is called Wanghaiguan, which is located in the southernmost part of the Terran power, bordering the Sharjah tribe of the Sea Clan.
The title of another book, "The Human Domain", introduces some of the situation in the mortal world and some knowledge of the cultivation realm. There is only one country in the mortal world of this world, Qin, and the surname of the country is also Qin, and the control system is similar to the official government of the world where he was before, and it is also a county system, with a total of thirty-six counties. The county has a county guard (presiding over civil affairs), a county lieutenant (presiding over the military), and a county supervisor (presiding over supervision affairs), and a county warden has a county guard under him, as the deputy position of the county guard.
The central structure is set up with three dukes, namely: Prime Minister: the assistant of Emperor Qin, the chief of a hundred officials, who assists the emperor in handling the government affairs of the whole country, divided into two left and right. Imperial Doctor: He is the assistant of the prime minister, second to the prime minister, and is responsible for holding the ministers' chapters, issuing edicts, and supervising hundreds of officials. Lieutenant: He is in charge of the country's military affairs, but has no real power. Under the prime minister, there are nine qing, named Fengchang, Lang Zhongling, Weiwei, Zongzheng, Taifu, Tingwei, Dianke, Zhisu Neishi, and Shaofu, respectively, in charge of the temple etiquette, the palace gate, the palace gate guards, the horses, the punishment, the righteous barbarians, relatives, grain goods, mountains and seas, and the taxes of Chize, so as to give co-support.
On the Xiuzhen side, the Xiuzhen Alliance is in charge of the Terran Race's directional strategy, and there are three Great Elders and sixteen ordinary elders during the period, and there are things that need to be decided by these elders together. Among the ten major sects under it, the Moon Moon Sect is only one of them, the medium-sized sects are thirty-six, and the small sects under it cannot be counted. As for the specific cultivation of the elders of the Xiuzhen Alliance, they were not written, and I think these are also secrets of the human race.
As for the division of the cultivation level, it is: refining qi, building the foundation, knotting the Dan, Yuan Ying, and transforming the gods. There is still a statement in the book, but it is not written. And each level is divided into the early stage, the intermediate level, the peak level, and the cultivation is endless.
What's more, he also said that cultivation requires qualifications, and the gap between those with poor qualifications and those with good qualifications will be dozens of times different when they cultivate, and even more said that those who can cultivate the truth may not have one person in a thousand people in the human race, and those with superior qualifications will have to take one out of a thousand people. Seeing this, Zhang Fan understood a little bit about Situ's faint refusal in the main hall, it should be that he has cultivation qualifications, but it will definitely not be very good or very poor.
The book also introduces another cultivation method, which is the so-called physical cultivation, which is one's own physical body, and the names are: Out of the Mortal, Tongmai, Yi Tendon, Hammer Bone, and Refining the Intestines. Physical cultivation requires refining muscles and bones, which is very difficult, and it is impossible to cultivate the true element of mana, and the inability to call the true element of mana during battle depends on physical defense and strength, but there are many mysteries of the human body, and physical cultivation can often burst out with terrifying power, and when it goes berserk, it can even exert a combat power that is far more than usual. But without the true element of mana, he can't release spells, and he can't fly out of thin air, at least in the realm he knows now. What's more, it's not like Xiuzhen can increase longevity.
It is said that if you have the achievements of building the foundation, you can live more than 200 years old, and you can increase the longevity of 300 years, and the longevity of the Yuan Infant Realm has passed 1,000 years, and the transformation of the god is 3,000 years. But if you cultivate to the hammer bone realm, you will only live twenty or thirty years longer than ordinary people, and more than 100 years old is the limit, and it is not really a thousand years old compared to cultivation. Therefore, those who have the qualifications for cultivating in the current cultivation world will basically not practice the art of refining the body, and there are even fewer people who specialize in the cultivation of the body, and only some people who are very confident in their qualifications will take a double break in the Dharma body, but no one has achieved anything so far.
However, there are many physical cultivators in the official army of the mortal world, and because physical cultivation does not require qualifications, as long as you are willing to work hard and endure hardships, you may be able to achieve something. Of course, this also leads to the fact that there are the most physical cultivation exercises in the official mansion of the mortal realm, and if you want to take the path of physical cultivation, you might as well go to the official mansion, but now it is known that the highest physical cultivation only reaches the hammerbone realm.
After reading the two books, Zhang Fan hesitated. In the main hall, Zhang Fan felt that after Elder Situ took his pulse, he metaphorically said that he didn't want to accept himself as an entry, and his cultivation qualifications would definitely not be very good, but if he took the path of physical cultivation, it would be difficult to reach the peak of this world now, after all, the highest level of physical cultivation in the entire Qin Kingdom was only to the hammer bone. And because I can't fly, it must have made it harder for me to find my way home. Let's confirm his cultivation qualifications first, thinking of this, he is ready to go to the main hall.
Got up from his knees cross-legged and walked to the entrance of the main hall. At this time, it is already the middle of the day, the sun is already shining on the earth, and there will be a little humidity and heat in the summer seaside season.
Walking outside the gate of the main hall, there is no decoration on the simple and unpretentious temple door. Zhang Fan was about to knock on the door, when the door slowly opened from the inside, and the voice of Elder Situ came from his ears. "Come in!"
Zhang Fan was stunned for a moment, but Elder Situ knew that he had arrived at the entrance of the hall, so he opened the door and let him in. Zhang Fan did not hesitate, and walked towards the hall.
In the main hall, Situ Nan and Dongfang Ming were still meditating with their eyes closed. Zhang Fan walked in front of Situ Nan, and then stood up waiting for Elder Situ Ming's questioning after making separate gestures to Situ Nan and Dongfang Ming. The time for the two teas passed in the blink of an eye, Elder Situ Nan did not open his eyes, and Zhang Fan was not in a hurry, standing and waiting quietly. Although he wants to get the answer as soon as possible and find a way home, but now he is in his thirties and has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and the tempering of his mind and the cultivation of his state of mind are not comparable to those of young people.
After an hour, Elder Situ finally opened his eyes, looked up at Zhang Fan, and said slowly. "I've read your book, how do you choose?"
Zhang Fan said: "The juniors are a little unclear, I want to ask the juniors first, I don't know if the juniors can help the juniors answer the question of the juniors' cultivation qualifications!" ”
Elder Situ's eyes moved slightly, and he glanced up and down at Zhang Fan before saying, "You should understand what I said yesterday, why do you need to ask again!" ”
Zhang Fan said: "The younger generation still wants to listen to the seniors in detail, so that the younger generations can trust their own judgment." ”
Elder Situ sighed and said, "I've helped you see it yesterday, your cultivation qualifications are not very good, if you have a chance, you may be able to build a successful foundation." But cultivating the truth does not mean that if you have good qualifications, you will definitely be able to cultivate the truth, you also need to have a Dao heart. I see that you are in a good mood, since you are here again today, I will still give you two choices, one is that I will directly earn as an apprentice, as long as you keep the current Dao heart, I will ensure that you can build a foundation for success, as for whether there will be a chance to go further in the future, it depends on your chance. The second is what I said yesterday, send you into the nearest city of the human race, and you will find an opportunity by yourself. ”
At this point, Zhang Fan had no choice, he went to the Terran town to find the body refining exercises, not to mention whether the body refining could reach the highest realm, just say that the exercises he might not be able to obtain easily. What's more, he has just entered this world, and he really needs a stable environment before he can find his way back. Thinking of this, Zhang Fan knelt down directly, knelt three times and bowed nine times, and called him the master.
Situ Nan waved his sleeves to help Zhang Fan up, and was about to tell Zhang Fan about the sect and some of his own disciples, when suddenly a divine sense came, Situ Nan suddenly stood up from his seat and looked at Dongfang Ming opposite.
Dongfang Ming had already stood up and said, "It's here." ”
Situ Nan shouted: "Go." Then with a wave of his sleeves, he rolled up his sleeves, and Zhang Fan flew out of the hall and flew towards the pass.
