Chapter 138: The Mystery of Becoming a Disciple: A Great Opportunity
“Dong Tianren.”
Zhou Qing received the sound transmission from the flying sword, unfolded it and took a look, feeling slightly shocked. After a moment, he put it away and looked outside.
It was getting late at this time, and the sun was about to set. The bright red light came from the top of the mountain and fell on the water waves, creating a layer of rouge color. Farther away, three or five waterbirds fluttered by, and their chirps spread far and wide.
The sky is getting late, the sunset is shining alone, what a beautiful scene!
Just like his own mood, Zhou Qing laughed a few times when he saw this. A little bit of his feet, a burst of true energy surged out, supporting his body, and then he flew into the clouds and mist, leaving the Denglong Qi Mansion and flying towards the distance.
When we arrived at Danyang Continent, we quickly met Zhou Chen and Zhou Zhenren.
Zhou Qing stepped forward to salute and said loudly: "Sixth Uncle."
Zhou Chen looked up and down and saw the young man in front of him with a jade face and sword eyebrows. The true energy is falling down, like a deep abyss of water, cold and biting, but there are tiny golden awns that keep leaping into it, the golden and black shine, and there is an indescribable depth.
I haven’t seen you for a while, and there have indeed been big changes.
The more Zhou Chen watched, the more frightened he became. When he thought about the other party being able to leave his name in the Astronomical Academy, he felt more and more that he should treat each other with admiration after seeing each other for three days.
Zhou Chen calmed down his mind and kept a calm expression on his face. He just said: "Zhou Qing, wait a minute and follow me to see the real Tianming in the clan."
Tian Master Ming is the Dongzhenren of the Zhou clan in Luochuan. He plays an important role not only in the Zhou clan in Luochuan, but also in the Zhenyi sect.
“Yes.” Zhou Qing agreed, his eyes shining with joy. After practicing for so long, I was finally able to see the Celestial being in the cave.
For myself, this is an amazing progress.
Zhou Chen looked at the sky and saw that it was not time to leave yet, so he said, "Tell me about what happened at the Astronomical Academy."
"The Astronomical Academy." Zhou Qing had nothing to hide, he Reflecting the sunset behind him, he spoke unhurriedly.
After half an hour, it became quiet.
Seeing that the time had come, Zhou Chen waved his sleeves and raised a startling rainbow, carrying Zhou Qing away from here.
When he reappeared, he had reached the cave where Tianming lived.
The size of Guanghua Cave in Zhengu Ming Dynasty is not inferior to that of ordinary land continents. Since this place is the place where Tianming master practices Taoism, to show respect, the uncle and nephew did not use the flying escape technique, but just like ordinary people, got on the carriage and followed the road.
Along the way, you can see Qi flowers blooming under the trees, Yao grass growing in the rocks, Baozhen leaves dancing, and Ganoderma lucidum shaking its fragrance back and forth. There are also spirit turtles watching the moon in the deep pool, flying cranes watching people in the clouds, and great ape practicing boxing in the stream.
Large tracts of auspicious aura hang down and scatter in all directions, forming tangible but invisible flowers. Some are still in bud, some are already in full bloom, some are three to five horizontally leaning branches, or thousands of records are clustered together. Clusters.
When you are in it, the sacred bones are filled with an indescribable aroma, making you feel like you are in the clouds, as graceful as an immortal.
"This is the cave sky." Zhou Qing looked at it, his eyes shining with light. This world was completely different from the outside world.
The caves used by monks are the collective name for the places of cultivation, but they are specifically divided into six categories: "Dongtian, Blessed Land, Zhen Palace, Qi Palace, Xuan Lu, and Jingshe", among which they are divided into upper and lower classes depending on the number of Qi veins and spiritual intelligence.
In Zhenyi Sect, true disciples can choose "Blessed Land" and "Zhen Palace", inner disciples can choose "Qi Palace", and outer disciples can only choose "Xuan Lu" and "Jingshe".
As for Dongtian, it is basically in the hands of the people of Dongtian. Unless someone is a junior who is valued by the people of Dongtian, or his direct disciple, there is no chance for him to practice in Dongtian.
Zhou Qing was thinking about something. The "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Diagram" he practiced was okay, and the Denglong Qi Mansion was enough for the time being, but he practiced "Spiritual Life Gold-falling Book", one of the five qi and four methods of Zhenyi Sect. ", progress in Denglong Qi Mansion was slow.
If he could practice in the cave for a period of time, he believed that he would definitely be able to push the "Golden Book of Spiritual Life" to the same level as the "Picture of the Dragon Transformation of the Yuan Emperor".
After a while, when they arrived at the place, Zhou Chen and Zhou Qing got off the carriage.
Because there is a solitary peak hanging high above the sky in front, with the palaces and buildings above leaning against the mountains and rocks, hinting at the aura of gold and silver. Surrounded by mountains, mountains, smoke, trees and clouds, the scenery is endless. Outside, there is a startling rainbow penetrating through. At the bottom, there is a thin and dense silver ring hanging, with countless thunders surrounding it, colliding with each other, and dazzling lights are constantly shining, one after another, endlessly bright. .
Even though they are far away, just by looking at it, there is a vast power of heaven penetrating through it, which makes people subconsciously frightened.
A child was waiting in front, riding a big transparent jade horse, which made his three-foot-tall white fat body look even more petite and exquisite. Eyes flickering.
Seeing Zhou Chen and Zhou Qing coming over, the little boy said with a sweet voice: "Which one is Zhou Qing? The Patriarch has given the true talisman, and you can go directly to Guanghua Hall."
Seeing this, Zhou Qing took the initiative to step forward and took the jade talisman from the hand of the boy on horseback. When he got closer, he found that the aroma of medicinal mushrooms hit his nose.
It turns out that this three-foot girl riding a big horse is Bao Zhi in disguise.
Zhou Chen waved his hand and said: "Go."
Zhou Qing nodded, grasped the true talisman in his hand, turned his true energy inward, and the next moment, a golden light exploded , wrapped him up and disappeared in place.
When Zhou Qing opened his eyes, he had arrived at a simple hall.
Looking up, the main hall has golden pillars and arches, stars are lined up, and in the center stands a glazed pagoda.
The body of the pagoda shows a kind of moonlight crystal white, with arches like rainbows, a cloister on the ground floor, and a square room. The eaves, brackets, and railings are inlaid with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and earth. Waiting for glazed tiles.
When the precious light reflects, two windows open on each wall of the nine-story glazed tower, and the hollow patterns seep out tiny bits of light, surrounding the full moon-like treasure inlaid on the top of the tower. In the wheel, swaying gently.
After Zhou Qing stood still, he bowed straightly to the square end of the nine-story glazed pagoda.
After a while, on the top of the glazed pagoda, the treasure moon wheel shone brightly, and a Taoist priest appeared inside. He wore a nine-color lotus crown on his head and a robe of sun, moon and thunder. His face could not be seen clearly, but A pair of green eyes cast down, containing thunderous majesty.
"Master Tianming." Zhou Qing didn't know whether the person coming into the hall in front of him was the real body, the Dharma body, or the clone, but no matter what, the power contained in it was as majestic as the sun and the moon. In front of him, he was as weak as an ant.
"Zhou Qing." Master Tianming, who was sitting on the nine-story glazed tower, spoke, his voice as exciting as gold and stone, and said: "Have you practiced the "Golden Book of Spiritual Life"?"
"Yes." Zhou Qing agreed without thinking too much.
""Spiritual Life Gold Book"." Master Tianming pondered for a while, and actually started to explain this Xuan Gong, one of the five qi and four methods of Zhenyi Sect.
When Zhou Qing heard this, he immediately held his breath and pricked up his ears to listen.
On that day, Master Zhou Chen passed on to him the Qi Refining Part of the "Golden Book of Spiritual Life", and he continued to comprehend it. But compared with the words and deeds of Dong Tianzhen, it is incomparable.
Dongzhen’s teachings are truly from a high position, worth a thousand dollars.
Master Tianming spoke for half an hour before he stopped. His green eyes were fixed on Zhou Qing, and he saw the energy surging in his body, like the clouds rising from the sky, Geng Jin coming from the west, sharp and sharp. He walked up a level faintly and couldn't help but nodded. To be able to leave a name in the Astronomical Academy is indeed a solid foundation.
Zhenren Tianming waited for Zhou Qing to wake up, said a few words to him, and then ordered a Taoist boy beside him to lead Zhou Qing out to the side hall.
Compared with the main hall, the side hall is smaller. The ground is paved with gold bricks and painted with cloud patterns and flying dragons. It is spotless.
There is a beam of light shining down from the top. It is very bright and white, reflecting the gold bricks. There are countless flying patterns dancing inside, turning into unicorns, white cranes, pegasus, turtles, etc. Wait, all kinds of things.
Zhou Chen was clasping his hands and looking around. He saw someone coming, and when he saw it was Zhou Qing, he nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he heard footsteps coming from behind.
After a while, a middle-aged man came out from behind. He was thin and his face was pale gold. There was a cloud on the top of the door. He was holding a medium-sized incense burner. Every time it rotates, countless galaxies are reflected from it.
"Zhenren Fan." When Zhou Chen saw the middle-aged man, he led Zhou Qing forward, said hello to him, and at the same time concealed the strange color in his eyes.
Zhou Qing may not know, but he knows that although Master Fan Jing is stuck in the first level and cannot make any progress, not many people in the Hengnan Zhou family dare to underestimate him.
Because Fan Jing has always served Master Tianming, he is the great steward of Master Tianming and even the entire ancient Ming Xiu Guanghua Cave, and he is very important.
If he came forward, it meant that they had just met, and Master Tianming was quite satisfied with Zhou Qing.
As expected, after Master Fan Jing sat down, he said with a smile on his face: "It's really good for Zhou Qing to leave his name in the Astronomical Academy. The news came that our Zhengu Ming Xiu Guanghua Cave is very popular all over the world. Happy."
Zhou Qing smiled and said a few words modestly.
If he remembered correctly, the last person from the Luochuan Zhou family to leave his name in the Tianxiang Academy seemed to be the real master of Guanghua Cave in the ancient Ming Dynasty, the Master Tianming whom he had just met.
Same as leaving a name in the Astronomical Academy, but now the gap between myself and the other party is huge.
After Fan Jing praised Zhou Qing, he looked at Zhou Chen and said, "Zhenren Zhou, you still have a keen eye for knowing people."
"Zhou Qing should live up to his own expectations." Regarding this Zhou Chen did not accept all the words. Because he knew in his heart that he had indeed brought Zhou Qing back to the Luochuan Zhou family's clan from outside. He was usually very helpful, but that was all.
Zhou Qing's realm of cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, and he even left his name in the Tianxiang Academy and attracted the attention of Master Tianming. This was all done step by step by himself.
Fan Jing said a few more words, then wiped away the smile on his face and said to Zhou Qing: "Zhou Qing, I came to you this time for one thing."
"As for your apprenticeship, I am going to talk to you. Let’s talk.”
“Apprenticeship.” Zhou Qing frowned when he heard this.
After getting started, apprenticeship is an extremely important choice.
The powerful beings in Zhenyi Sect all form their own forces. If you worship under his door and enjoy the shade under the big tree, you will have great potential in the future.
But it is so difficult to find a good master.
Many times, the person you like looks down on you; the person who is willing to take you in is willing to take you in, but you yourself are not willing. What was even more unlucky was that not long after he became a disciple, his master was defeated in a fight within the sect, and he became a lost dog. His apprenticeship made him feel bad, making him want to cry.
"Moreover," Zhou Qing turned his eyes and glanced at Zhou Chen.
If the apprenticeship is arranged by the family, there will definitely be no big risks and it will be very safe. After all, it has long been customary for aristocratic families to learn from each other.
It's just this kind of apprenticeship. Generally speaking, it's just a name. The master will not really teach the skills of pressing the bottom of the box. Later, Zhou Qing will still have to learn the secret skills from Luochuan Zhou Family. This kind of apprenticeship is similar to marriage, and it is mainly used to connect feelings and cooperate.
Zhou Qing didn't like this kind of apprenticeship very much.
Exactly like this, when he first decided to become a true disciple, even though Huang Yue mentioned that if the clan arranged to become a master, it would be of great help for him to become a true disciple, he refused.
Zhou Qing's idea is that he doesn't want to be such a "marriage partner" or an "olive branch". He would rather choose someone who can help him a lot.
Zhenren Zhou Chen was slightly surprised when he heard this. He knew what Zhou Qing was thinking and signaled him to calm down. Then he faced Fan Jing and said, "Zhenren Fan, do you have any plans for Tianming?"< br>
Hearing this, Zhou Qing's eyes darkened, and there was a layer of gloom between his eyebrows that was difficult to get rid of.
If it were the arrangement of a cave-like person like Master Tianming, I couldn't stop it with my current status, so I could only agree to it.
Anyway, it’s better to be safe than not.
Zhou Qing couldn't resist, so he could only comfort himself in this way.
Fan Jing smiled and replied: "The arrangement is an arrangement, but I personally think it is a good thing."
Seeing that the uncle and nephew in front of him were all listening, Fan Jing did not show off, and said directly: "Recently, Master Guande has been interested in recruiting disciples. Master Tianming thinks that Zhou Qing can give it a try."
"Master Guande." Zhou Chen thought of his old friend who drank with him that day and turned his eyes. It seemed that something happened that he didn't know about.
"Zhenren Guande has a noble character and profound mystical skills. If Zhou Qing is lucky enough to become his disciple and be taught by Zhenren Guande, your future will be truly limitless."
< br>"Teach with all your heart?" Hearing these four words, Zhou Qing was a little startled.
According to the apprenticeship between aristocratic families, even if I go to the disciple of Zhenren Guande, I will just give him a name. The other party may give me some pointers, but how is it possible to teach him wholeheartedly?
After all, under the Dongtian Sect, he will only teach his disciples who are recognized by the Dongtian people.
Fan Jing glanced at Zhou Qing, pointed out his confusion, and said word for word: "If Master Guande accepts a disciple this time, he will teach him as a real disciple, teach mysterious skills, grant supernatural powers, and give magic weapons."
"Not only that, if you are really outstanding, you may not be able to inherit the Changling Miaozhen Royal Dao Cave where Master Guande is located in the future."
"What?" At this time, even Zhou Chen couldn't sit down. Come on, this kind of thing is very rare.
"A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." Fan Jing looked at Zhou Qing and said seriously: "If you hadn't been able to leave your name in the Astronomical Academy this time, I might not have been able to get into the eyes of Master Guande."
He didn't say a word. If Zhou Qing hadn't been born in the Zhou family of Luochuan, even if he left his name in the Tianxiang Courtyard, he wouldn't be able to get into the eyes of Zhenren Guande.
Zhou Qing took a deep breath, suppressed the joy in his heart, and thought about what he just said carefully. Suddenly an idea came to him, and he couldn't help but ask: "Is it not decided yet?"
