The Monk

Chapter 15 The Land of Five Spirits ()

Zhang Pa laughed secretly. No wonder the little snake pointed in this direction. It turned out that it knew the location of the lair of the spiritual ginseng. He patted the snake's body and taught it like an adult: "Little snake, but you are so smart."

The white-haired old man looked at the man and the snake and felt something was wrong. He asked: "Did the snake recognize its master?"

Zhang Pa didn't understand: "What is master recognition? Did it recognize me as its master?"

"Master recognition is a blood-dripping ceremony to control monsters. Draw a talisman array, recite the spell, and then drip blood on the monster. The monster absorbs the blood and recognizes the master successfully. After recognizing the master, the monster only recognizes you as its master and obeys you completely. It will not devour its master."

"Is it so complicated? I don't know how to do it."

"Then why are they willing to listen to your orders?" The old man asked curiously.

"I don't know." The old man thought about it and said, "Do you want to recognize the master with blood from Fushe? I know this spell." Zhang Pa shook his head: "No, isn't it better to let them be free?" The old man looked past him and looked at the basket behind him: "Those three puppies are ordinary domestic pets. They are restricted by people and cannot grow up for life. I don't understand why you are carrying three burdens? Your cultivation is not high." "What? There is a restriction? No wonder they haven't grown up for several years. Can you remove it?" Zhang Pa is very concerned about the three little guys. The old man smiled: "What's the difficulty? It's just that after the restriction is removed, they will grow up and will not be so cute. Do you really want to remove the restriction?" Zhang Pa nodded: "Cuteness cannot be the price of not being able to grow up. Please cast a spell." The old man smiled and looked at Zhang Pa. He flicked his fingers three times. In an instant, the three puppies were shaken and their eyes were confused. They seemed a little uncomfortable with the current situation. After a while, they slowly returned to normal. The old man said, "Okay, can you tell me why you brought them with you?"

Zhang Pa told them about how they were the only ones to accompany him when he was alone, and the old man nodded, "I wrongly blamed you before, don't blame me, fellow Daoist."

Zhang Pa was a little embarrassed: "If you want to blame someone, I should be the one to apologize, I killed all your monsters."

The old man looked at the giant pig and said lightly, "His cultivation is equivalent to the initial stage of the human Jindan period, but he couldn't withstand the attack of Fushe."

"Jindan period? What's the realm of my uncle? That pig is so powerful? Please forgive me, senior." Thinking of the ferocious appearance of the big pig, Zhang Pa was a little scared. If Fushe hadn't been there, he would have died a thousand times.

The old man waved his hand and said, "Why blame me? I have many monsters with such cultivation, all of which are at the initial stage of Jindan." He turned his head and looked back at the puppy: "It's you, whose cultivation is not high. If you run around with them, their lives may be in danger. It's better to abandon them as soon as possible." Zhang Pa shook his head and said stubbornly, "Absolutely not. They are good to me, so I have to be good to them too!" The old man smiled. At this time, he completely believed that Zhang Pa had no ill intentions. He let down his guard and praised him, "You are a good boy with affection and righteousness. Tell me how you came to the boundless grassland." "What? This is the boundless grassland? Not Tianlei Mountain? Where is Tianlei Mountain?" Zhang Pa asked hurriedly. "Tianlei Mountain? It's not too far. If you fly, you will arrive in ten days or half a month."

Zhang Pa was very depressed. It seemed that the way back would be more difficult. He told the old man in detail about his journey with a bitter face. The old man laughed and asked him: "You haven't seen a woman?" Zhang Pa argued: "I have seen one in Daoxian Town!"

"Yeah, I have, hehe." The old man laughed for a while, pointed to the pig demon corpse and asked Zhang Pa: "What do you think it looks like?"

"What do you think it looks like? Isn't it just a bigger pig?"

The old man nodded: "Yes, he was originally an ordinary domestic pig."

"Ordinary domestic pig? Cultivated to the Jindan stage? Much better than me." Hearing such a thing, Zhang Pa would be surprised.

The old man said again: "Do you remember the secret about my age that I just mentioned?" Zhang Pa nodded.

"The ordinary domestic pig can cultivate to become a Jindan master and it is also related to that secret." The old man said slowly.

"What secret?" Zhang Pa was full of curiosity.

The old man looked at Zhang Pa cautiously: "This secret is a bit against the will of heaven. Can you swear to keep it secret forever?"

Zhang Pa tilted his head and thought for a while, then refused: "Thank you for your trust, senior. Since this secret is so important, I'd better not know it. It would be bad for you if it is leaked out."

Now it was the old man's turn to be surprised. There are cultivators who give up the secret method of rapid cultivation just for a secret that has nothing to do with them? However, the young man would only benefit from not exploring the secret, so he was relieved and laughed: "What a good boy. In this case, I won't force you. I will give you a few bottles of pills later to help you cultivate."

Zhang Pa thanked him again and again.

The old man thought for a moment and warned: "Your Fushe is too young and has not recognized its master. If it is discovered by a high-level Yuanying cultivator, not only will the young snake be caught, but you will also die. Don't let them out casually in the future." Zhang Pa realized the seriousness of the matter and said respectfully: "Follow the teachings of the senior." The old man stood up and said: "Wait here for a while, I'll be back soon." As soon as he finished speaking, his face suddenly changed, and he stood facing the west. An idea flashed through his mind. He didn't have time to think about it. He made a quick decision, waved his robe sleeves, collected the giant pig's body, and covered Zhang Pa and the three puppies, and disappeared from the grassland in an instant. After an incense stick, a flash of lightning flashed over the sky where Zhang Pa and the old man had just talked, and disappeared in the distance in a moment. Not long after, the lightning flew back and stopped in the sky above the boundless grassland. The light faded away and a human figure appeared. It was a tall bald man. He frowned and thought: "Strange, the spiritual energy is gone, could it be a high-level monster passing by?" Since no one found it, the bald man chanted a spell and rushed eastward again like lightning.

Zhang Ai was in a daze at this time. He was shocked by too many things in the day, and even more so in front of him. Zhang Ai was completely stunned. Just now, the old man cast a spell to cover him, and then used the earth magic to sink dozens of miles quickly. When his eyes were darkened, his eyes suddenly lit up, and a huge garden appeared in front of him. There were countless exotic flowers and plants in the garden. There are several clear springs and streams. Occasionally there are huge monsters lounging in the grassland, all in the shape of cows, horses, sheep and pigs.

If it was just like this, that would be fine. The most peculiar thing was that the aura in the garden was so overwhelming that Zhang Ai couldn't wait to practice.

When he came to the garden, the old man was no longer nervous, and his expression returned to normal. He smiled and talked to Zhang Awei: "Man is not as good as God. Originally, fellow Taoist did not have to come here, but now that he has entered the garden, the old man no longer hides it, and gives it to fellow Taoist A relief."

Zhang Ping followed the old man into a pavilion and listened to his detailed explanation of the origin of this place.

The old man has been cultivating underground for at least 700,000 years. Although it is difficult to improve his cultivation, his spiritual consciousness and soul have become extremely powerful. On the ground just now, the old man wanted to go down to get the elixir, but suddenly he noticed that a high-level master of the Nascent Soul stage was flying towards him. The old man was no match for the master of the Nascent Soul, and he did not dare to take the risk of leaving Zhang Ao alone on top, in case he He was discovered by a master and got information about himself through prying. Judging from the cruel experience of hundreds of years of training, the master would definitely not be as kind as Zhang Awei and let him go. As a last resort, he had to take Zhang Awei into the underground garden with him. Escape from the Nascent Soul stage masters.

The underground garden is a huge barrier with various strange formation restrictions, sealing all spiritual energy and preventing it from leaking out. Below the garden is the place where the five spirits gather their blessings. After being closed by the barrier, all the spiritual energy fills the garden.

This closed space was set up by an unparalleled genius thousands of years ago. It is said that his cultivation level is incredibly high. No one knows what level he has reached. He is only said to be invincible. This expert liked to wander around when he had nothing to do. He accidentally discovered the place where the five spirits gather their blessings, so he used his magical power to transform the world and build this garden dozens of miles underground.

What's even more amazing is that he didn't know where he learned the magic, and he used the Five Spirits Blessed Land to create a heaven-defying cave.

As the old saying goes, one day in heaven and one year on earth, Nitian Cave has this effect. This man of God actually created a cave under the ground, so that he could spend one day on earth and one year in the cave. Because it was too unnatural, after the creation of the cave, the tens of thousands of miles of boundless grassland lost all aura, and no crops except weeds could grow.
