Yunchonglou sat in the main seat with a dignified air. "Alright, since you're Xianing's grandchildren, you're here to participate in the East Sea Palace's disciple selection, right? Just now, Li Xiang reported to me about the situation regarding the mine. Tell me in detail."
Zhang Haoran and Yun 'er looked at each other and said,""Master Yun, we are not very clear about the mineral vein. We accidentally caught a big fish when we were out at sea. When we returned to the village, we found two Water Spirit Crystals in its stomach. Uncle Xia told us that there might be a large mineral vein in the place where there were Water Spirit Crystals. He also told me to report this matter to the master of the Yun family because the Yun family is also a family from Sunset Island and has always taken care of my Sunset Village. Uncle Xia asked me to thank the master of the Yun family again!”After saying that, he bowed deeply to Yun 'er.
Yun Chonglou heard that the kid could say beautiful words and felt a little satisfied."Oh, then do you know where the big fish was found? Did you tell anyone?"
Hao Ran said," I roughly know about that sea area, but when I wanted to tell Uncle Xia, Uncle Xia told me not to tell anyone, including Uncle Xia. He said that there was no benefit in knowing too much, so he only told me to remember the route myself. After this test is over, the head of the Yun family will arrange for someone to return to Sunset Island with me and then go to that sea area together. If they could find a mineral vein, the dozens of families in the village would not have to worry about their livelihood!”
Yun Chonglou laughed,"Xia Ning is a scheming person. Not bad, this is very good. Then you can prepare for the test!" Do you have the two Water Spirit Crystals?"
"At my place," Hao Ran replied.
"Do you know what use this Water Spirit Crystal has?" Yun Chonglou asked. Haoran said,"I'm not sure. Uncle Xia only said to ask the Yun family head!"”
"This old man Xia only knows how to do these things." Yun Chonglou laughed again.”
Alright, let me tell you.
"This Water Spirit Crystal can stimulate your own attributes through the East Sea Palace's basic mental cultivation method. It's said that all things originate from water. With the Water Spirit Crystal, you can stimulate your body's attributes as soon as you enter the beginner level by using the East Sea Palace's basic mental cultivation method. This meant that you had a ticket to Donghai Academy.”
" Of course, those who have yet to activate their potential will have to go through the intensive training of opening their meridians. The training will last for three months. If they don't open their meridians in three months, they will be sent back. The difference is that those who can't open their meridians or don't have the opportunity to open their meridians will have another chance in five years. If they can't open their meridians after five years, they will only be able to cultivate martial arts.”
"The guards you saw when you came in were people who cultivated martial arts quite well. Because they were unwilling, they could only cultivate martial arts while waiting for opportunities.”
"But that's not something you can encounter in 10 or 20 years. For those of you who have water spirit crystals, my Yun family can teach you the first level of the basic mental cultivation method before the test. After you use your own comprehension and circulation, your body will change. Then, during the test, my Yun family will give priority to recommending you to enter the test for disciples. As long as you are not defeated, you will have a proper inner sect identity. The difference between inner sect disciples and outer sect disciples is very big."
"Have the two of you practiced any martial arts before?" Yun Chonglou asked. Haoran and Yun 'er said," The juniors have only learned some basic skills to train their energy. Currently, they are at the peak of Martial Arts Level 6. Yun' er is at Level 5."”
A cold light flashed in Yun Chonglou's eyes."Yunfeng, bring Yun 'er back first. I'll teach you Haoran's basic mental cultivation method today. Yun' er, come over tomorrow.”
Elder Yun Feng brought Yun 'er to the trading company's encampment.
Yun Chonglou carefully looked at Zhang Haoran and said,"Kid, have you really only practiced ordinary martial arts?”Zhang Haoran's heart stirred, but his expression did not change."Yes, Master Yun."
"Impossible," Yun Chonglou continued,"I can see an indescribable blood aura between your brows. How can an ordinary martial technique have such a blood aura?"”
"Honestly speaking, there's nothing to hide here.”
Zhang Haoran remained calm." I've been practicing ordinary martial arts with my father and brother since I was a child. However, a month ago, I died a little while ago when I participated in the hunt for the big shark. I was swallowed by the shark. After that, I was able to return after many twists and turns. Later, when I prayed in the Sea Ancestor Temple, I vaguely understood something, but I really didn't practice any special martial arts.”
Oh... "Do you know what you've comprehended?" Yunchonglou asked softly.”
Hao Ran replied," I don't know. It's just a vague feeling. People feel very comfortable in those complicated seal scripts. However, I don't recognize those seal scripts at all, so I don't have any specific comprehension." But later, he felt that his body was very smelly, so he went to take a bath. He found that there was a thick layer of black mud-like matter on his body. He soaked in the sea for a long time before it was removed.”
"Is that black mud an ointment?”Yun Chonglou asked again.
"That's right." Zhang Haoran replied.
Yun Chonglou nodded." Between life and death, your mind has been enlightened. It's not bad that you actually have the opportunity to cleanse your meridians and marrow. How much combat strength do you currently have?" How high can you jump?"
Zhang Haoran was shocked. It was not good to show off his ability now.
"I don't know," he said.
"It doesn't matter," Yunchonglou said,"we'll know once we try. Follow me."”
The two of them came to the outer courtyard and called for two strong men to carry the stone locks over.
The two muscular men carried over three stone locks and said,""Patriarch, this small one is about two to three hundred pounds, and the big one is about a thousand pounds.”
"Haoran, go forward and take a look."”
Zhang Haoran didn't hesitate. He bent over and lifted the small one. He lifted the middle one over his head. Then, he took a deep breath and lifted the one that weighed a thousand pounds with both hands. However, he didn't show off too much. He was afraid that his performance would arouse suspicion.
Yun Chonglou smiled." Not bad. My thousand jin lock requires three people to lift. It's not bad that you can go past your waist alone." Then, he said,"Try jumping with all your strength. Don't leave any room for maneuver. If it's too high, I'll catch you."”
How could Zhang Haoran dare to jump? This jump would send him flying into the sky. This was not appropriate. Thus, he carefully jumped at full strength and fell down after reaching a distance of five to six feet.
Yun Chonglou lifted his hand to slow down his descent."Not bad, not bad. You haven't practiced martial arts. If you practice martial arts, you won't fall. According to the current situation, you have indeed gone through the initial cleansing of your meridians and marrow. Your physical condition and root bone are not bad. Follow me again."
Yun Chonglou turned around and walked towards the backyard. There was a mountain in the innermost part of the backyard. Yun Chonglou came to a door and said," There's a cultivation technique inside the quiet room. It's the first level of the basic cultivation technique that Donghai Academy gives to every family that has contributed. It includes the profoundness of the Meridian Unlocking Technique. You can only practice the first level. You can choose not to practice the rest because after the test, Donghai Academy will choose the second level of the cultivation technique based on the individual. However, you can study the general outline and profound meaning. If you don't understand anything, you can ring the bell in the cultivation room to inform me. I will come back to answer your questions in the time it takes to brew a cup of tea.”
"Thank you for your teachings, Patriarch. I'll comprehend it now." Zhang Haoran bowed. Yun Chonglou didn't say anything more. He said,"Let's go in." Then, he turned around and left.”
Zhang Haoran stepped into the quiet room. The four walls of the room were illuminated by night pearls, and the light was very clear. There was a futon in the middle, and in front of the futon was a small table. On it was a scroll of mental cultivation techniques.
Scroll opened with the title," This technique was written by the founder of Donghai Academy. It is the first chapter of the supreme technique. If you learn it, you will become a disciple of Donghai Academy. This technique can be used together with the Water Spirit Crystal. If there is something you don't understand, just do it normally." His body would undergo some changes after the Qi Circulation. Water Spirit Crystals will also be partially consumed, and you can report how much you consume to your master.。。It was forbidden to continue practicing on the day of opening the meridians and wait for his master to tell him to choose the second level of the cultivation technique before practicing.”
Zhang Haoran wasn't in a hurry to cultivate after reading this. He flipped to the second page, and the second page turned into the words 'Rune'. Zhang Haoran carefully compared the words on this page and the first page, and found that the number of words on this page was the same. Zhang Haoran was delighted. Could this be the corresponding words of the rune?
He repeatedly studied a few more pages, and it was the same. He slowly matched it with the runes in his mind. This mental cultivation technique was not very thick, but it was only 50 pages.
After a detailed comparison, Zhang Haoran realized that the basic meaning of the words in his mind could be figured out. However, the only problem was that he could not say it out loud even though he could see the version of the seal scripts. Because he didn't know how to pronounce it.
At the same time, he thought about the contents of the page in the underground palace and carefully studied it. He found that it was different from this basic mental cultivation method. The difference was that this mental cultivation method only had nine initial meridians, but the mental cultivation method in the underground palace had as many as 18 meridians. What was the reason? Could it be that his cultivation technique was incomplete? Well, it was very possible. After all, this should be a simplified version. But another problem could be the difference in species. A human could only open nine spirit meridians, but that unknown species was much stronger and taller. This time, Zhang Haoran was at a loss. Should he ask the head of the Yunchonglou family about this?
Thinking of this, Zhang Haoran could only pull the bell. After a while, Yun Chonglou came to the door and said, Haoran, do you have any questions?
Zhang Haoran bowed deeply and said," This junior of the Yun Clan has just read through this mental cultivation technique and has yet to practice it. I can't understand the runes at the back of each mental cultivation technique. I wonder what words it is?" Why did it feel like it was similar to the seal scripts in the Sea Ancestor Temple?
Yun Chonglou smiled and said," You are indeed a cautious person. When I first entered Donghai Academy, the instructor also said that the runes at the back are ancient characters. After the compilation of the past palace masters, this volume has the same meaning and content. Since the ancient characters are undecipherable, I brought one to you because I heard you say that you had some enlightenment in the Sea Ancestor Temple. Under normal circumstances, there was no need to look at the seal scripts at the back. Just focus on your training."
