Journey to the West: Start by giving Taishang Laojun a whole life

Chapter 28 The Legend of Zhenwu, I Have a Friend's Goddess Furnace

Qingniu is pretty good.

He really gives something.

Of course, it is also possible that he looks down on these things that are of little value. After all, no matter how powerful the magic weapon is, it is not as powerful as the ring on his arm or the diamond bracelet.

Not to mention a replica of a magic weapon.

So Qingniu gave the set of miniature swords to Zhang Tian, asking him to practice them well. They are now quite handy for now. When he has reached a higher level of cultivation in the future, he can go to the secret realm of Longhu Mountain and take out the set of Taoist flying swords truly made by Taishang Laojun.

He looked through the supplies that Zhang Tian had taken from the cave of the Lihua Immortal, but there were not many that he was interested in. Except for a few items that he took out as snacks and seasonings, he gave all the others to Zhang Tian.

"It would be best if you could turn that magic weapon into a sword formation and perform an exquisite sword technique. Otherwise, it would be a waste of talent. Unfortunately, I like to be straightforward and have no interest in formations. Otherwise, I would have taught you one or two tricks."

Zhang Tian felt a little regretful.

But he was already content in his heart.

After all, a magic weapon that can be called good by Qingniu must be of top grade in the human world.

That would be nice!
Zhang Tian thanked the other party and went back to sort out the things collected by the Lihua Immortal. These were all treasures that the other party had borrowed from countless monsters while traveling in the mountains, and now he had obtained them all.

Except for some acquaintances.

Things that can be eaten and can increase your cultivation.

Zhang Tian then planted the remaining medicinal herbs that he didn't recognize, had not yet reached their age, and had other uses, on the top of the hill, next to the orange tree. Why did he plant them here?

There was resentment in the eyes of the Lihua Immortal.

I want to take back my things but I don’t dare to go.

The more I think about it, the more aggrieved.

Crying harder.

Zhang Tian pretended not to see it. After all, he had seen big scenes. What was a mere cat girl pretending to be pitiful and showing her white legs?
He fiddled with the Taoist flying sword he had obtained, and used his not-so-powerful spirit and rather clumsily to nurture it, trying to communicate with the spirituality in it and make it as easy as an arm to use. Just like the ancient legends, he could fly the sword and kill the enemy thousands of miles away with just a thought.

But he practiced for several days.

It feels like not much progress.

So he knocked on Zhang Huairen's door in the middle of the night. Zhang Huairen was not asleep. It was unknown whether he was too distressed to sleep or was afraid. When he heard that Zhang Tian was asking how to raise the flying sword, he immediately became angry and blushed, and yelled, "You beast, you beast!"

Zhang Tian: Haha, you stingy guy.

Two more days passed.

Finally, it was the fourth month since the opening of the inheritance of the Cold Pond Immortal, so Zhang Tian took the flying sword down the mountain, fearing that it would be stolen back by Zhang Huairen.

Beside the cold pool.

Zhang Shanfeng, who had not been seen for a long time, was fishing by the cold pond. It was obvious that he still planned to stay here and wait until the inheritance here was over. He was determined to catch his spiritual bone that had escaped.

Zhang Tian was a little hesitant, but still walked over and sat cross-legged beside the cold pond, waiting for the colorful stones in the cold pond to emit light.

Then he heard Zhang Shanfeng speak, and he actually praised him. He only heard the other party praise him, "I read the sutra you wrote, it's really good, and you have some understanding."

Zhang Tian was stunned for a moment.

He didn't know what the relationship between the other party and Qingniu was, but since Qingniu showed the Taoist scriptures to the other party, he must not be his enemy, so he nodded modestly, "It was all a flash of inspiration, just parroting, it's not a big deal for me." If he was in front of other people, he would definitely show off, after all, being able to simplify morality and lower the threshold so low is truly an extraordinary achievement.

But when he thought that the other party was Zhenwu, who only took him more than forty years from birth to enlightenment and becoming an immortal, during which time he traveled around the world, killed countless demons and monsters, and ascended to heaven, he was assigned an important task by the Jade Emperor and was promoted to Zhenjun.

He was even highly regarded by Yuanshi Da Tianzun, who helped him wipe out many big monsters in Beijuluzhou. His achievement was earth-shaking, no easier than a monkey going through 81 difficulties.

Because of this achievement, he was promoted to a frontier official, directly guarding the land of Nanshanbuzhou, which can be said to be a truly high-ranking position with great power.

Later he was promoted to the position of Zhenwu Emperor.

With such talent and ability, as well as the speed of promotion, Zhang Tian thought about it and felt that only monkeys could compare with him. In front of such a legendary figure who was like the protagonist, he didn't feel that there was anything to be arrogant about.

Zhang Shanfeng smiled and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

"I have been working hard for thirty years to become an immortal, and I will work hard for another seventy years to see if I can become a disciple of Brother Qingniu and become the boy who burns the furnace to make elixirs."

Zhang Tian felt that with his talent and luck, being a boy of Taishang Laojun was a very good future for him, not to mention that he would become like the King of Gold Horn and Silver Horn who was full of treasures in the future.

Just thinking about the situation where you accidentally offend the wrong person and get beaten to death, the Jade Emperor can perform a resurrection spell, which is worth a lot. The King of Hell dare not say that you will die at the third watch, and who dares to let you live at the fifth watch? I'm afraid you will send your soul back obediently at the second watch.

Moreover, you can take the opportunity to stay in the fairyland and the heaven. There is fairy air there, and you can eat fairy fruits and drink fairy water. Time flows slowly. One year on earth is only one day there. You can live a very long time with the same lifespan.

Zhang Tian thought it was great.

But Zhang Shanfeng was puzzled.

In his opinion, as long as one works hard, one can become an immortal. If an immortal works harder, within a thousand years he can become an immortal golden immortal. If he works hard for another thousand years, kills more monsters, and accumulates some merits, he can be promoted to a true lord of heaven. He can be sent out to guard the country for as many years as he wants, and can be promoted when he returns. Isn't this better than being a free and easy boy?

He was puzzled and remained silent.

The air became quiet for a moment.

There was an unusual movement under the cold pond. Zhang Tian quickly closed his eyes and chanted a spell, causing the colorful light to cover his whole body. He inherited the magical powers left by the immortal and unknowingly pushed the Tao Te Ching to the extreme.

The dense Taoist patterns reappeared on his forehead, constantly entangled, and stood out to form a Taoist eye.

My understanding increased immediately!
Easily grasp endless thoughts!
There is endless inspiration blooming!
Zhang Shanfeng saw it all, and the more he looked, the more surprised he became. After all, he had heard Qingniu mention that the other party had only practiced for a year and a half. He then looked at the Taoist scripture in his hand, and felt that it was a pity and he was moved to admire his talent.

Wait for Zhang Tian to wake up from the inheritance.

Then Zhang Shanfeng groaned, "You have practiced the Tao Te Ching well, but it's a pity to be a boy. I have a friend..."

He did not mention who it was.

He just said that the other party was in need of a good apprentice.

Zhang Tianze understood what he meant. After all, Emperor Hengyu said the same thing back then. "I have a friend who has an unruly furnace. As long as he locks a beautiful woman in it, she will be completely devoted to you and will sleep with you to death. No matter if you are a goddess, a saint, a witch, or a jade girl, he will sleep with you." Of course, that is a friend of mine, not my alias!

He thanked me again and again.

Rejected this matter.

Then he turned and left.

This caused Zhang Shanfeng to sigh, "Alas, Grandmaster, it seems that your Lingtai Fangcun Mountain is destined to not be able to recruit good disciples!"
