Chapter 6: Apprenticeship
Zhao Zheng didn't use much time to see the blink sword technique, what he needed most now was to cultivate the Gengjin Decision and the Chasing the Stars and the Moon, and it was the top priority for him to improve his cultivation.
That's why he only skimmed hastily, and then took the trick of chasing the stars and the moon to find the guard elder. As for the secret martial arts of the Seven Peerless Hall, you need to go to the hall to find the hall master to ask for it, which involves the secret exercises of the sect, so naturally you need to investigate the background before you can get it.
Fortunately, the outer disciples of the sect have strong business ability and can transmit information quickly. Before the sun set the next day, Zhao Zheng got the secret method of the Seven Xuanmen that he had been thinking about after a complicated interrogation by the hall master, Gengjin Duel.
As soon as the exercises were in his hands, Zhao Zheng couldn't wait to take them back to his residence and read them.
Although the theory of meridians is the same, the operation effect of the exercises is not the same. Judging from the effect described in the book, if you practice casually for a year and a half, you can be called a second-rate master in the rivers and lakes in the previous life.
Zhao Zheng has a foundation in cultivation, and he did not encounter many difficulties in transferring to Gengjin Jue, but Gengjin Jue is different from other martial arts, and he needs to take the special elixir of the sect - "Gengjin Pill" to draw out the unique sharp nature of Gengjin True Qi. He had already obtained two from the hall master when he was receiving the exercises, and he had already taken them when he was cultivating.
Gengjin Pill is an elixir to help disciples get started quickly, only need to take it once at the first time of cultivation, feel the special Gengjin true qi and let it circulate in the body along the route of the exercises, and form true qi seeds in the dantian, and in the future, the Gengjin Qi can be continuously produced with the circulation of the exercises.
Zhao Zheng already had a nameless true qi in his body that had been cultivated by relying on the exercises of his previous life, and this true qi was unexpectedly very compatible with Geng Jinju, and the transformation process was effortless, not to mention, the total amount of true qi had not been lost too much.
As the transformation of his true qi was completed, he circulated it in his body more than a dozen times before slowly finishing his work.
After finishing his cultivation, he wanted to try the effect of this Gengjin Duel, and Zhao Zheng went out with the hundred forging sword he carried with him.
He came to a pine tree with the thickness of an adult's thigh, and activated the Gengjin True Qi that had just been transformed in the dantian, and the Gengjin True Qi in his body was instantly covered with sword blades. First, he stabbed the tree with his sword, and the sword of the hundred forges pierced through the old pine tree that he didn't know how long it had lived. He drew his sword and changed the stab into a split, and the body of the tree was split in half like a knife cutting tofu, and it was extremely silky.
"That's awesome!" Zhao Zheng couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
Compared with internal strength, the cultivation of the trick of chasing the stars and the moon is not so smooth, this exercise requires continuous exercise, so that the practitioner can form a muscle memory of its footwork, and then adapt to the unique breathing rhythm, with the true qi to achieve the effect of "chasing the stars and chasing the moon". This is a piece of kung fu that drips through stones.
Zhao Zheng has long been mentally prepared for this, he can't become a fat man by eating in one bite, he has the exercises, and his talent is not bad, are you afraid that he won't be able to learn?
It's nothing more than that there will be one more practice subject in addition to swordsmanship in the future, and it is a matter of time before the practice is completed, and it can be developed well in the sect in the past two years, and it is not too late to find Mo Juren and wait for the martial arts to be completed.
————————————————————
Two days after Zhao Zheng got the exercises, his cheap master suddenly sent someone to look for him, saying that the apprenticeship ceremony was ready immediately, and asked him to clean up the past. Zhao Zheng has been waiting for this in the past few days, and Wenxin is naturally busy agreeing.
He found a solemn dress, and after putting it on with the help of Senior Brother Ye, he followed the disciple to the main peak of the Seven Xuanmen.
The apprenticeship process is very cumbersome
First of all, it is necessary to worship the patriarch of the sect, that is, the protector god, in order to pray for the blessing of the patriarch, and at the same time reflect the respect for the sect and the piety of the apprentice.
Bow to the master again, usually the master and the master sit on the main seat, and Zhao Zheng as a disciple performs three kowtows to him, and then offers a post to the master and offers tea to the master.
Finally, the Master speaks and informs him of the rules. The content of the speech is generally to educate the apprentices to respect the ancestors, abide by the rules of conduct, and encourage the apprentices to be innocent and upright, and to work hard to learn martial arts to repay the sect.
tossed enough for Zhao Zheng.
After the ceremony, before everyone dispersed. Zhao Zheng's cheap master called him to his side, and identified the three senior brothers who were out on a mission and hurried back:
"This is your senior brother Zhang Yunzhang, who is also a big disciple of the teacher, he has practiced marksmanship, he has been with the teacher for more than ten years, and now he is the protector of the Hundred Forging Hall, you can find him if you have anything to do in the sect."
"I've seen the master, the junior brother" Senior Brother Zhang's plain face smiled very kindly. I saw that he had taken the items he had prepared in his hand and handed them over.
"I heard that there is a junior brother to get started, and the senior brother specially prepared a steel ring armor for you, this thing is made of stainless steel, the weight is not heavy, and it can be worn on the body to block ordinary swords and axes. The rivers and lakes are sinister, and the senior brother gave it to the junior brother to protect his life. ”
"Senior Brother Xie!" Zhao Zheng happily accepted it, the chain mail sent by this senior brother could just add some defense to him.
"This is your second senior brother, named Wu Kun. It is the protector of the intelligence department in the door. Master Gao continued.
"I've seen the master, the junior brother" The second senior brother's stiff face squeezed out a smile, which was more ugly than crying. I could tell he hadn't laughed in a long time. I saw him take out a bottle of unknown elixir from behind him and hand it over.
"This is Qing Lingsan, which can detoxify all kinds of poisons, and give it to the junior brother"
"Thank you, Second Senior Brother!" Zhao Zheng smiled even more happily, and he hurriedly stepped forward to carefully take the jade bottle into his hand. This is a miracle medicine for the rivers and lakes, a must-have for going out.
"This is your third senior brother, named Wang Heng. Like you, he is a disciple of the Seven Peerless Hall, and your cultivation is the same, so you can find him when you encounter problems in your cultivation in the future. "Master Cheap gave a brief introduction to the last senior brother.
"I've seen the master, the junior brother" Senior Brother Wang has big eyebrows and big eyes, and his appearance is extraordinary. Wearing silk and satin, it looks like his family is not ordinary. At this moment, there is a smile on the corner of his mouth. He took out a delicately carved jade pendant from his sleeve and handed it over.
"Senior Brother is finally not the youngest disciple now! This piece of mutton fat jade was given to the junior brother, which was obtained by accident for the younger brother, and he had never been sick for so many years, most of which was due to his blessing......
"Senior Brother Xie! Pick up your auspicious words" Zhao Zheng took the jade pendant and hung it on his body. It was probably the lowest gift he'd ever received, and he pouted inwardly. Thinking about it, this third senior brother is also a disciple, how can he have good things in his hands.
"Good apprentice, since your senior brothers have given you such a precious gift, you naturally can't be stingy as a teacher, I don't know if you like this piece of extraterrestrial dark iron......" The master of the high gate smiled and took out a piece of black Qiuqiu from his arms.
This is the legendary Outer Heaven Darkiron!???
Zhao Zheng was stunned by the sudden surprise, and forgot to reply for a while.
