Chapter 11: Purple Sun Returning to the Mountain, Wanting to Open the Great Heavenly Reef
Following the winding path, they arrived at the square halfway up Mount Longhu in five minutes.
Standing in front of the mountain gate, a solemn and modern Taoist temple came into view. It was a quiet environment with green bricks and tiles. "Zhang Yang greets Uncle-Master."
"Zhang Wei greets Martial Uncle." As soon as he stepped into the mountain gate, the two Dao children guarding the gate bowed.
Zhang Ziyang nodded slightly and stepped into the mountain gate. He walked on the bluestone path and returned to his small courtyard.
After arranging the things, he immediately walked up the mountain. Five minutes later, he arrived at the courtyard house on the mountain. He gently knocked on the wooden door of the small courtyard, and a gentle and kind voice came from it.
"Come in."
Master, I'm back."
Stepping into the courtyard, he saw an old man in a Taoist robe sitting under an evergreen tree with a cup of tea in his hand.
Zhang Zhiwei looked up at Zhang Ziyang and said,""Looks like you've benefited a lot these few days.”
"I wouldn't dare. It's still because Master has taught me well.”As the saying goes, a teacher for a day is a father for life. Facing Zhang Zhiwei, Zhang Ziyang was not as restrained as he was facing Lu Jin. He was rather casual.
"Shut up, when did you need me to teach you? However, the thing you gave me last time gave me a huge surprise!”After saying that, Zhang Zhiwei revealed a kind smile on his face and then said to Zhang Ziyang,
He sensed that Zhang Ziyang's cultivation realm should have just entered the eighth stage of the Houtian realm. His aura was not floating at all. From this, it could be seen that this disciple of his had not gone astray. However, such a cultivation speed was really unprecedented.
One had to know that the higher one's realm was, the more time was needed to accumulate for every increase in realm. However, he had only left the mountain for a few days? If he remembered correctly, this kid was only at the peak of Houtian sixth stage before he left the mountain, right?
"Have a seat. I have something to talk to you about.”
"Yes." Sitting on the jade table, Zhang Ziyang listened attentively. "Zi Yang, you've been cultivating in Mount Longhu for eighteen years, right? Have you ever thought of going down the mountain and living a normal life?”
"En, it has been eighteen years. Disciple doesn't want to go down the mountain and live the life of an ordinary person. After eighteen years on the mountain, I'm used to it!”
Stroking his white beard, Zhang Zhiwei sized him up and said,"Yeah, eighteen years! You've gained a lot this time! This change is too great compared to when I brought him up the mountain.”
Hearing this, Zhang Ziyang remained silent. Time could change everything. During this period of time, whether it was his personality or his appearance, there were great changes.
"In the past few days, I've understood your character.”
Then, Zhang Zhiwei continued," I can see that you have a secret in your heart. It seems that you have been planning something all along. Moreover, your personality is far more stable than your peers. You know very well when you should do what. Among the disciples I have taught, you are the most worry-free. However…"
"Please speak, Master."
"Speaking of which, there was once a talented person in Jianghu. However, he lost his heart on the path of cultivation and walked further and further away.”Zhang Zhiwei narrowed his eyes as if he was recalling what had happened back then.
"I'm saying this to warn you that no matter what height you stand at in the future, what kind of identity you have, you must think carefully before you do anything and maintain your heart so as not to lose your way.”"Don't worry, Master.”
"Yes." Zhang Zhiwei nodded lightly and smiled." You just came back. It's a little serious to say this. How's your relationship with Linglong?"”
Zhang Ziyang smiled bitterly and said,""No wonder Old Master Lu would test me like this. It turned out that Master and Old Master Lu had the same idea.”
Zhang Zhiwei laughed and said,""Young people! I think Linglong is a good girl. Old Master Lu also has the same idea. That girl is so innocent. You can't let her down.”
As the laughter faded, Zhang Zhiwei's expression returned to normal and he said,""Alright, I won't joke with you young people. Let fate take its course! There's less than a year left until the Heavenly Grand Ritual. I'm looking forward to your performance during this period of time.”
"Yes, Master."
"Go ahead."
Zhang Ziyang nodded and closed the door. He walked on the bluestone path towards his residence.
a year later
In the early morning of Mount Longhu, the golden crow rose from the east. Warm sunlight poured down through the gaps in the windows and into the house.
Zhang Ziyang got off the bed and pushed open the wooden door to walk out of the courtyard. When he arrived at the mountain gate, there were already many guests in the square. Looking down at the foot of the mountain, he could already see many cars parked there.
There were tourists here, as well as mutants participating in the Heavenly Grand Ritual. But no matter what, today was the most prosperous day in the history of Mount Longhu.
"Junior Brother, so you're here." Turning around, Zhang Chen looked at Zhang Lingyu and said with a faint smile,""Senior Brother, don't you have to go receive the guests?”
" No," Zhang Lingyu shook her head slightly." The higher-ups are here for an inspection. It's not appropriate for me to go."”
Standing at the entrance of the mountain, Zhang Lingyu said seriously,"" There will be disciples from Wudang Sect, Quanzhen Sect, Maoshan Sect, and many other sects attending the Heavenly Grand Ritual. Whether it's for Master's sake or for the Heavenly Seal…"
Speaking of the major forces, Zhang Ziyang couldn't help but think that the ten old forces would also participate. Some people's goal was probably not only the Heavenly Seal, but also the origin of Zhang Chulan's Qi Body, right?
After all, the origin of Qi body had been praised as the end of techniques. No matter how strong Zhang Huaiyi was, he was just a mortal. Even if he comprehended the origin of Qi Body to the end, how strong could he be?
Any higher and that would not be something that mortals could touch, right? The moment he arrived at Mount Longhu, Zhang Ziyang was quite envious of the Eight Wondrous Skills that had caused the Rebellion of Jiashen.
However, with the improvement of his temperament and realm, he was no longer as passionate about the so-called Eight Wondrous Skills as before. He was only a little curious.
"You, you're Immortal Zi Yang, right? Can you take a photo with me?"
"Wow, so handsome!" Just as Zhang Ziyang was lost in his thoughts, several young girls screamed and surrounded him, holding their phones.
After being transformed by the Purple Sun Sutra, Zhang Ziyang's appearance was very delicate. In addition to his success in cultivating the Golden Light Spell, he looked sunny and handsome. Compared to Zhang Lingyu and the others, he had an otherworldly aura.
"Teacher, since you have a guest to entertain, I won't disturb you.”After saying that, Zhang Lingyu turned around and left, but she looked a little embarrassed.
Looking at his back, Zhang Ziyang sighed slightly. This was really an era where looks mattered. Sometimes, having a good appearance was really troublesome. Sigh! It's my fault for being handsome!
