The twenty-second round, the first small week
Zhang Tong was helpless and spent a lot of energy, but after all, he got nothing.
Only then did he calm down, and he no longer dared to hope to ascend to the sky in one step with the help of treasures.
After a while, he put away the gourd and put his mind back on cultivating the Dao of Heshan Dao.
Before he arrived at Dengping Mansion, Zhang Tong had already opened up the four acupoints, but he didn't want to be too shocking, so he deliberately slowed down his cultivation speed, and instead began to carefully polish his true qi and try to consolidate the foundation as much as possible.
Now that he has arrived at Jiuyang Mountain, most of the original scruples have gone, and in Dengping Mansion, he found the herring fish sword and killed Liu Tianwei, he has made great contributions, and he has already won the trust of Zhen Yuandao, if he deliberately hides it, he will be despised.
Zhang Tong made up his mind, immediately let go of his hands and feet, and went all out to practice the Qi cultivation method of Heshan Dao. Because he deliberately polished his true qi a while ago, coupled with the fact that the turbidity qi in his body was already thin, now that he has cultivated, he is even more like a fish in water, and he can open a hole in almost three or five days.
In less than half a year, Zhang Tong was like a bamboo, opening up all the thirty acupoints around the dantian, and the first small Zhoutian cycle was formed.
Originally, there were 360 acupuncture points in the human body, and it was divided into the main acupuncture and the main acupuncture, 12 main orifices, 348 from the acupuncture, and each main acupuncture with 29 acupuncture acupuncture, which was a small Zhoutian, a total of 12 floors.
Only when the twelve floors are all connected, can a Great Zhou Tian cycle be formed, and the true qi in the body will change from acquired to innate nature. At this point, the realm of qi cultivation has been cultivated to the extreme, if you go one step further and break through the entrance of heaven and earth, you will be able to condense the innate true qi and turn it into mana, so as to be transcendent and reach the realm of transforming into gods. From then on, he broke away from the shackles of heaven and earth, entered and exited the green underworld, and traveled in the mountains and seas, but it was just a snap of his fingers. It can make people reborn, and from then on, all diseases will not invade, and the life span will last for thousands of years.
It is a pity that today, there are countless cultivators, but there is not one in ten thousand who can reach this state.
Like Zhen Yuandao and others, he has practiced hard for more than 50 years, and only now has he practiced the ninth Zhou Tian. And the other three disciples under him, except for the eldest disciple Yin Chunlai, who has practiced to the fourth level, the other two are still working hard in the third level, and there is little hope of breaking through the entrance of heaven and earth in the future.
Zhang Tong practiced the first junior Zhou Tian, knowing that the three senior brothers above had all practiced for more than ten years before they reached the third or fourth realm, if he came up far beyond Tongji, he would inevitably be squeezed out by the three in the future.
Moreover, in the past few months, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, which also made him faintly feel that the foundation is a little unstable, just after breaking through the first Zhou Tian, he stopped to warm up for a while, so that although the entry is fast, it is not shocking.
Zhang Tong made up his mind, and as before, he no longer attacked the acupuncture point, but began to polish his true qi. However, this time he had already practiced a heavy Zhou Tian, and his cultivation was far several times higher than before, and it took a lot of hard work to polish and mellow his true qi.
Fortunately, his heart is extremely strong, and he does not lose his penance every day, and even enjoys it. It wasn't until more than half a year later, when I came to the Jiuyang Mountain Lingxi Temple for almost a year, that I finally re-polished the true qi in my body to be extremely pure.
Zhang Tong secretly thought about it, felt that the heat was almost over, and was planning to continue to practice Xiangxia every week. Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhang Chun hurriedly came, saying that Zhen Meng had something to do and asked him to go over to discuss, and the senior brother Yin Chunlai was also there.
Zhang Tong was in a good mood, but when he heard this, his face suddenly sank. Since he came to Lingxi Temple with Zhen Yuandao a year ago, everything else has been fine, but only this Zhen Meng has made him very bored.
Because it turned out that Zhen Yuandao's four disciples had always been the only one who was Zhen Meng's horse, and now Zhang Tong had taken that person, Zhen Meng believed that he was Zhen Yuandao's nephew, and bullied Zhang Tong when he first arrived, and wanted to take the opportunity to surrender him as well.
But Zhang Tong is extraordinary, and he has experienced many lives and deaths in Dengping Mansion before, which makes his character a little more old and spicy, how can he be compared to an ordinary teenager, and he saw through Zhen Meng's tricks as soon as he came up. ...,
It's just that at the beginning, Zhang Tong was still afraid that Zhen Meng was Zhen Yuandao's nephew, and he took a lot of patience to talk to him. But later, after a long time, I realized that Zhen Yuandao didn't treat this nephew well, so he simply didn't bother to pay attention to him.
After that, Zhen Meng sent someone to call a few times, but Zhang Tong prevaricated on the grounds that he was busy with cultivation. But this time, the senior brother Yin Chunlai was also there, but it was not good to refuse again. Otherwise, he will offend both of them, even if Zhang Tong is protected by Zhen Yuandao, it will not be easy to gain a foothold in the door in the future.
Zhang Tong thought for a while, and said in his heart: "I don't have anything urgent now, it's better to go and see, otherwise I will avoid it for a long time, and let others think that I am afraid of him!"
Zhang Tong made up his mind, answered Zhang Chun's call, changed into a dress, and went with him.
Originally, there were several brothers and sisters, all of whom lived in the west wing of the front yard, which was not too far apart. However, this time Zhen Meng invited him, but it was not in his own house, but next to the Lingxi Temple, about two or three miles away, there was a needle pine forest. The terrain in the forest is flat, and stone tables and stone benches are set up, and it is also very good to gather here when the weather is good.
By the time Zhang Tong came, Zhen Meng and Yin Chunlai were already seated, with a few plates of delicate side dishes on the stone table and a pot of fruit wine. Yin Chunlai still had a pale face and did not smile, but Zhen Meng was a little weird, with a smile on his face, toasting cloth dishes, which was very different from his usual above-the-top look, it seemed that there was really something to ask Yin Chun to come.
Zhang Tong came to him, and when he saw that the two of them had already started, he was very unhappy, and he couldn't help but sneer secretly, and said in his heart: "This Zhen Meng really deceived me when I was young! Since I was ordered to be called, I should wait for a while, otherwise when I come, I will have to eat the leftovers of the two of you!"
If Zhang Tong had just arrived a year ago, he would have thought that his cultivation would not be good, and it would be difficult to dispute with others. But now, he has practiced the first Xiao Zhou Tian, and there is a black dog nail beside him. Only with Zhen Meng's cultivation of the third Xiao Zhoutian, if he didn't have a powerful magic weapon, he really couldn't help him.
Zhang Tong thought about it for a while, and became more and more angry in his heart, when he was in Dengping Mansion, he even dared to kill Liu Ziyu, and how could he be willing to let people ride on his head. simply raised his eyebrows, and secretly made up his mind to take the opportunity to make trouble with him today, so that people would know that he was not a soft persimmon to be held casually.
Zhang Tong sneered in his heart, came to the stone table, and sat down without asking. Then he hugged Yin Chunlai and shouted, Senior Brother is fine. Then he seemed to smile, looked at Zhen Meng a few times, and asked, "I don't know what the second senior brother has to say when he invites the junior brother to come today?"
Originally, Zhen Meng wanted to dry Zhang Tong, so he deliberately talked to Yin Chunlai and didn't invite him to sit down. Unexpectedly, Zhang Tong ignored him at all, as if he had returned to his home, he didn't need to be invited at all, he sat down with peace of mind.
Zhen Meng is from a big family, if he didn't have something to ask for, he wouldn't even pay attention to Yin Chunlai, not to mention Zhang Tong, a little junior brother who had only been in the house for a year, immediately his face sank, and he reprimanded: "I am holding a banquet here today, and I am the host of the banquet." Isn't it rude for my junior brother to sit down without my invitation!"
Zhang Tong turned his head to look at Zhang Chun, who was standing beside him, and said with a smile: "Oh? This is strange! Could it be that my senior brother invited me here? What's more, I didn't ask for instructions to sit down when I had dinner with my master, so is it possible that my senior brother's rules are greater than our master's?"
If it comes to clever sophistry, how can Zhen Meng be as good as Zhang Tong, he was speechless when he was asked only this sentence. Moreover, as soon as Zhen Yuandao came back, he began to retreat, practiced the herring sword, and had time to explain other things in the future, which also made Zhen Meng misestimate the situation. Otherwise, if he knew that Zhang Tong had helped Zhen Yuandao get a flying sword, he would never dare to despise Zhang Tong like this.
Unfortunately, Yin Chunlai was present at this time, and when he saw that Zhen Meng was embarrassed, he hurriedly played a round, and said with a smile: "They are all their own brothers, how can they pay attention to them." Zhang Chun, why don't you go and add a pair of chopsticks to the little junior brother!"
In fact, Zhang Chun had already seen the dirtiness between Zhang Tong and Zhen Meng, but as a child, he was like a subordinate, but he didn't dare to talk much. After listening to Yin Chunlai's instructions, he hurriedly bought wine glasses and tableware, and then hurriedly retreated, for fear of getting into trouble.
Yin Chunlai poured Zhang Tong a glass of wine with a smile, filled Zhen Meng's wine glass, and said: "Today, it is rare for our brothers and sisters to get together, not to mention those trivial matters, I wish the master a boundless life!"
Although Zhen Yuandao was not present at the moment, Yin Chunlai moved him out, Zhang Tong and Zhen Meng did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly toasted together, which eased the atmosphere a lot.
Originally, Yin Chunlai and Zhen Meng did not have a close relationship, but Zhang Tong, as a junior brother, dared to argue with his senior brother, and he didn't like it very much. It's just that he is very deep in the city, and what he thinks in his heart, his face never shows, but it makes people feel quite an elder.
