Huang Chang was forced to remember this every day by reality, because whenever he raised his head, he could see the immortal mountain that was winding and winding, stretching for thousands of miles, but completely separated from the earth, and completely floating in the sky.

He had been in this world for eleven years, and eleven years was enough time for him to realize the radical difference between this world and the "modern society" with the highly developed physical and mechanical civilization that he was familiar with in his previous life.

――That's right, Huang Chang is a so-called "time-traveler", an ordinary senior majoring in mechanical engineering, a standard science student, due to an accident, with his memories of 22 years in modern society, reborn in this wonderful world of Xianxia.

He thought it would be the biggest secret of his life, but the truth is: his parents knew early on that this child was different. Because when he was born, he did not cry like other newborn babies, but looked around with wide eyes full of fear and curiosity about the world. Although the baby's eye organs were not fully developed at that time, everything he saw was blurred, and the sounds he heard in his ears could not be recognized as language at all, including the brain for the same reason, had little memory of that period...... But because his father and mother mentioned it many times in the days since, Huang Chang also knew that his idea of "keeping a low profile" was doomed to failure from the beginning.

In the next few years, Huang Chang also tried hard to dress up as an ordinary child, but in fact, he didn't know what a two- or three-year-old baby should behave to be "normal", so no matter how he pretended to be tender, the twenty-two-year-old soul in his body finally made him look different everywhere.

However, his parents never discriminated against him because of his specialness, and even on the contrary, they were very happy and proud of it. Huang Chang has older brothers and sisters above, and younger brothers and sisters below, as children, those born in the middle are often easily ignored. But Huang Chang has been cared for and loved by his parents the most since he was a child, and his brothers and sisters are not jealous at all, and everyone in the family has high hopes for him.

"Our family Ah Chang is a child with Su Hui, and it is possible to worship the immortal gate in the future!

When he was a child, his father and mother often boasted proudly when chatting with their neighbors, and the neighbors often gave him good wishes for this, of course, there were also jealous and suspicious eyes, but in most cases, the attitude of the people around them often became better because of this, which is an indisputable fact.

Huang Chang was very unaccustomed to this at first, and always felt that it didn't seem to be a good thing for his father and mother to be so high-profile. But as he grew older and learned more about the world, he realized that his worries seemed a little unnecessary.

-- In this world, reincarnation is not a superstitious idea, and it is not very uncommon to be reborn with memories of past lives. The so-called cycle of heaven, there must be life and death, no matter people, ghosts, demons, and demons are inevitably reincarnated. Some powerful cultivators, demon beasts that have opened up their spiritual intelligence, or ghosts with strong mental power, still hold on to one spirit even after experiencing hell reincarnation, so that they can still maintain the memory of their previous lives when they are reincarnated.

In this world, they are said to have "Su Hui" - the wisdom of previous lives. And these people, the chance of entering the Xianmen Dojo is far greater than that of ordinary people.

The so-called Xianmen Dojo is the place where the cultivators are located, and most of them are in the heavens, those immortal mountains floating in the sky. However, there is not a lot of contact between cultivators and ordinary mortals in this world, this is because all cultivators, no matter how powerful they are, have only cultivated step by step from the mortal stage. Even if the two cultivators get married and give birth, the child they give birth to is just an ordinary person at the beginning, maybe they are physically stronger, their talents and qualifications are better, and they will cultivate faster in the future, but in any case, immortals cannot be born naturally, they can only be cultivated, and all immortals are from mortals, this is undoubted.

Therefore, all immortal sects need to recruit disciples from mortals, and since they recruit disciples from the human world, it is inevitable that various bonds will arise from this and the human world. Even if a person ascends to immortality and attains enlightenment, his parents, family, friends, and relatives ...... These social relations always exist, and the changes that arise from them are indispensable.

Generally speaking, the phrase "one person attains the Tao, the chicken and dog ascend to heaven" is particularly evident in this world, and because of the powerful and incredible abilities of immortal cultivators, they are treated with unparalleled respect and preferential treatment in this society. And of course, this kind of preferential treatment often benefits their families and relatives - no matter what your original status, even if you are a beggar or a prisoner, as long as you can be related to the Heavenly Immortal Gate, or even if it is only possible to be related, no one will dare to despise and underestimate you.

Since it is such a good thing to worship in the immortal gate, it naturally attracts everyone's attention. However, the fairy gate is not so easy to worship. Although the Xianmen will recruit disciples in the mortal world every few years, almost all the parents of the Great Zhou Dynasty where Huang Chang is located, or all the countries under heaven, have worked hard for this, but each time they can finally be selected and brought to the immortal mountain to spread the Dao Law, there are only a few dozen. Sometimes more, sometimes less, never more than a hundred.

――The conditions required to enter the Immortal Gate are too harsh.

First of all, the first is to look at talent, in the eyes of those immortals, cultivation is a process of communicating the five elements of heaven and earth, seizing the creation of the sun and the moon, participating in the mystery of life and death, and finally achieving the avenue. And the so-called talent is to check the yin and yang two qi, the five elements of spiritual roots, and the three souls and seven spirits of each applicant...... How are these congenital conditions.

In fact, man is the spirit of all things, born with the qi of heaven and earth, and is bound to be born with both yin and yang. If the five elements are insufficient, the body will be weak, and if the soul is not complete, then you will either be a fool or a madman - in short, as long as you are a person with a normal mind and good health, these conditions can basically be met, which means that in fact, everyone can cultivate the Tao.

However, with the ordinary qualifications of ordinary people, even if they cultivate hard all their lives, it is very difficult to achieve great achievements, and many difficult hurdles in the process of cultivating the Tao cannot be passed, and time, spirit, and financial resources are wasted in vain, and there is even the possibility of going mad and dying at worst -- it is said that in ancient times, there was a great sect that used to spread the Tao of the Immortal Family with the idea that "everyone is like a dragon, and everyone is holy", but the result was a great chaos in the world. The result of cultivating the Tao of everyone in the secular world has not created a kingdom of heaven on earth, but has led to all kinds of evil things appearing one after another: those who have fallen into madness because they have not had enough qualifications but have forced their cultivation of the Dao to become immortals; those who wantonly compete for financial resources in order to become immortals, and who cannot reach their thoughts without taking other people's things; and those who have practiced magic a little, they feel that their own way is the Great Dao, regard others as ants, and kill innocents indiscriminately if they are dissatisfied...... What's even worse is that everyone is oriented to the Tao, everyone cultivates immortals, and all the people in the world are not engaged in production, resulting in barren land and cut off commerce. In this way, the extinction of the country and the nation is inevitable, in short, chaos.

It wasn't until later that the major immortal sects joined forces and it was easy to calm down the incident, but since then I have also understood a truth: cultivation is easy and it is difficult to become enlightened. Immortals are not so easy to cultivate. Only those who are particularly good in congenital conditions, or at least particularly outstanding in one of them, can go far on this road of competing for life with heaven and earth, ordinary mortals may have one or two successes, but the vast majority of them are just looking for death in vain.

Therefore, later, the major immortal sects became more cautious in preaching, and the secret methods of each family were not passed on lightly, also in order to avoid causing chaos in the world. But the side effect of this is that the scrutiny of talent has become more stringent. Only those who are extremely gifted, or the descendants of cultivators, are born with specialties in these aspects, and it will be easier for them to pass the inspection of the major immortal sects. However, it is difficult for the vast majority of ordinary people in the world to have the opportunity to embark on this immortal road again - when Huang Chang first heard these news, he once thought to himself with a lot of amusement: if there were newspapers such as "Southern Weekly" or the vast number of public elites in this society, he would definitely shout that "the road of cultivating immortals is increasingly monopolized by the 'second generation of immortals', and the immortal gate is also unfair......

However, there is one kind of person who is different, even if he has ordinary talents, he can worship the immortal gate - that is the so-called "Su Hui" person with the memory of his previous life. Because in this world, those who can be reincarnated with the memories of their past lives are often successful cultivators, and for various reasons, such as the end of their life or the failure to pass the heavenly tribulation, they have to be reincarnated and seek opportunities in the next life. In the eyes of mortals, the mysterious path of cultivating immortals and seeking the Tao is familiar to them, and some even bring the secret method of inheritance, reincarnation such as relics, which is even more invincible.

The Immortal Sect recruits disciples, and of course it also hopes to recruit this kind of skilled worker, and the possibility of this kind of person becoming an immortal will be much greater. Therefore, for the so-called "Su Hui" people, their selection criteria are often relaxed a lot. Even if you are a little less talented, at least you can prove that you have this ability, or if you have a particularly outstanding intelligence, you can also get the opportunity to worship the Immortal Gate - it is just an opportunity, and it may not be able to worship it.

Huang Chang got the opportunity when he was seven years old, when his father and mother took the whole family to the county town to test their talent - this talent is measurable for everyone, and almost everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty will try it at least once in their life. Its site is located at the entrance of the official offices of various prefectures, and there is a huge round stone. Those who want to know if they have the talent for cultivating immortals only need to put their hands on the cobblestone, and if the stone is shiny, and the brightness reaches a certain level, it is a success. The different colors of the stones represent the strength or weakness of each person's talent in a certain aspect. This kind of talent-measuring round stone is found in many big cities in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Xianmen also hopes to recruit as many good seedlings as possible, but it is not limited to the poor, the old and the weak.

There are no requirements for those who take the test, but there is an age requirement for Xianmen to accept disciples, and usually those who are older than fifteen years old will not be accepted. However, it is not useless for older people to test their talents - they can determine whether their descendants have a chance to cultivate immortals according to their own talents. Of course, this kind of judgment is not reliable, and it is not uncommon for children whose parents are ascetics to not have any talents. But in any case, the chance of being a suitable immortal cultivator in a person with good talent will always be greater. This even affects the parents themselves - those who can make the stone shine brighter, even if they are old, there will be many wealthy families who are willing to marry them in order to give birth to gifted offspring.

Many people can make stones glow, but it is difficult to meet the standards of the fairy gate. Huang Chang's family went up to touch it at that time, and there were actually two or three of the brothers and sisters who could make the stone shine, and Huang Chang was also one of them. But in the face of the eager gaze of his family, the old official in charge of guarding the round stone at the gate of the yamen just shook his head and smiled at them:

"Your family does have some qualifications, but it's still far behind, many people have this level of talent, and it's not enough to attract the attention of the immortal master. Try your luck at any of the gates. ”

However, Huang Chang's father and mother refused to admit defeat easily, and grabbed Huang Chang's hand and shouted:

"Our family Chang'er can remember the events of his previous life, he has Su Hui!"

"What?!"

The old official's face changed suddenly.

............

After waiting in the inn for a few days, Huang Chang stood in front of a real immortal master. Why do you know that he is a real immortal master?--Because the other party has been sitting cross-legged on a futon when talking to Huang Chang, but the futon cannot reach the sky or land, just floating alone in the air.

It is said that this immortal chief is the immortal master who is specially responsible for the selection of qualifications in this area, and he made a special trip from the capital. The Immortal Master's attitude was very kind, and after reaching out to check Huang Chang's pulse and reconfirm his qualifications, he asked him with a smile if he really remembered his past deeds, and what could he use to prove this?

Huang Chang, who has been hesitating whether he should be high-profile or low-key since he was reborn, decisively decided after thinking about it for ten seconds: Now is not the time to be low-key, the trick of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger can't be played, and if you continue to play, you will really become a pig for the rest of your life. So he readily admitted his rebirth identity, and silently wrote a piece of CNC machine tool operating program code on the spot - the work of the original graduation project, to show that he had not forgotten his past life.

Of course, the immortal master couldn't understand his code, but he could see that the code was not written randomly, and there was a strict logical relationship between them. Later, he used some kind of spell to determine that he was not lying, and finally determined his identity as a reincarnated person, so he said that he was qualified to participate in the selection of the Immortal Worship Gate.

The scene that followed made Huang Chang unforgettable for the rest of his life - his mother burst into tears on the spot, hugging Huang Chang and crying. And his father, who at first tried to be calm, but soon failed, and howled all the way from one end of the long street to the other - you must know that this was the street in front of the yamen of the provincial capital! Moreover, his father, who had always attached the most importance to appearance and demeanor as a teacher, was so out of shape that he was not afraid of being arrested as a madman.

Someone did want to arrest him, but he was immediately scolded by the old official at the yamen. This old man is well-informed, and he is used to this phenomenon, and when he saw this, he did not rush forward to join in the fun like others and say congratulations, but silently went to the back to prepare a towel basin, and waited for Huang Chang and his father to go crazy before coming over to greet him to refresh, which made the latter grateful.

As for Huang Chang himself, he was taken by the immortal master to the back courtyard and said some words. The immortal master was very kind and straightforward in his conversation, telling him a lot of knowledge about the immortal cultivation world - such as the saying that "everyone can cultivate immortals", and the reason why the world was in turmoil due to the indiscriminate preaching of the Dharma in ancient times, so that now the major immortal sects are strict in accepting disciples...... These messages were just basic common knowledge for cultivators, but for mortals like Huang Chang, they were absolute secrets.

Of course, in addition to these gossip, the topic of the immortal master is mainly focused on Huang Chang himself:

"Huang Chang, since you have Su Hui, then I can't treat you as a seven-year-old child. There are some things that I think you should be able to understand - although everyone can cultivate immortals, this is only a beginner. The path of monasticism is thorny step by step, and people without talent will not go far on this road at all. You may be able to rely on your intelligence or perseverance to get through the first few levels, but the later levels will only get harder and harder, and those with insufficient qualifications will eventually encounter a threshold that they can never overcome. ”

"Your talent is not bad among mortals, but it can only be regarded as a mediocre for cultivators. I estimate that it will not be difficult for you to get started when you learn the Tao, and you can barely pass the first small pass in the future, but I am afraid that it will be difficult in the future. However, you will always have some mysteries of your own with the memories of your past life, and since you can solve the mystery in the womb and be reborn with spiritual wisdom, you must be a little lucky, so I send you this opportunity. It's just that you have to think clearly yourself, with the intelligence and intelligence of your two lives, if you only mess around in this mortal world, whether you study literature or martial arts, it should be easy to achieve something, and you will have a future in the future. But if you join our faction, you will definitely encounter a thousand hardships, not to mention that you may not be able to repay something. Not only may you not be able to achieve anything until you grow old, but you may even fall halfway through, and your body and soul will be destroyed, and you will not be able to re-enter the cycle of reincarnation - so do you still have to stick to the path of cultivation?"

Huang Chang smiled, do you still need to ask this question? Just looking at his father's reaction, if he went out at this time and said that cultivating immortals was too dangerous, let's stop doing it, or go home honestly and live a stable life, what would be the end?

So he just bent down and made a long salute:

"Thank you for the kind reminder, but the kid has made up his mind, and he voluntarily worships the immortal gate, diligently seeks the avenue, and has no regrets for the rest of his life. ”

The immortal elder smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly:

"That's it, I also said these words according to the rules of the sect - in fact, I have never seen anyone who has the opportunity to worship the immortal gate and give up for so many years. ”

This witty remark made Huang Chang couldn't help laughing, and after the immortal chief told the truth, he flipped his palm and handed Huang Chang a small token:

"This sect opens a mountain every five years to recruit new disciples. Your luck is not good, the mountain gate was just opened last year, and now there are still four years before the next mountain gate is opened, and there will be an assessment at that time. You're seven years old now, and you can come when you're eleven. Don't miss it, after the age of fifteen, even if you have a gifted sect, you won't be included. ”

"Is the assessment difficult?"

Seeing that this immortal chief was very good at talking, Huang Chang hurriedly asked, and the former smiled:

"It might be difficult for a real 11-year-old, but it shouldn't be a problem for someone like you...... Teach you to be good: if you have time, practice climbing more mountains, and then you can climb on your own two legs. ”

The immortal master pointed to the sky and smiled. Huang Chang wanted to ask a few more questions, but saw that the immortal master sat down on the futon and floated, slowly floating towards the sky, obviously leaving.

"Ah, Immortal Chief, there's one more thing: what's the name of my faction?"

Although it has not yet been included, Huang Chang has already regarded himself as a disciple of the sect, the immortal chief smiled, but did not respond, just nodded the token in his hand. Huang Chang's face turned red for a while, and he quickly picked up the token and took a closer look.

The token is pitch black, I don't know whether it is iron or wood, its back is an incomprehensible spell pattern, and the front is only three ancient seal characters, Huang Chang's father in this life is a teacher, and he has shown enough wisdom since he was a child, of course, he began to read and read very early, although these three words are ancient, but he can still roughly identify, presumably it is the title of the sect.
