Xia Zhi also put away the Golden Light Mantra and followed Zhang Zhiwei to the place where the Celestial Master usually meditated and practiced.

"I originally thought you would be fifteen years old before you could become a high priest, but I didn't expect you to grasp the true use of the Golden Light Mantra so quickly."

Zhang Zhiwei was very satisfied with Xia Zhi's performance, and stroked his white beard as he smiled.

"How can you go abroad without having a few special skills? Today I will teach you the Thunder Technique of the Celestial Master's Mansion!"

Under Xia Zhi's expectant gaze, Zhang Zhiwei began to tell him about the Thunder Technique.

"Our Celestial Master's Mansion's thunder magic is called the Five Thunder Orthodox Method. It is called Five Thunder, but it is actually Five Qi. It is divided into Yang Five Thunder and Yin Five Thunder. What I am going to teach you is Yang Five Thunder."

Xia Zhi blinked, feigning an innocent and adorable look as if she knew nothing, and asked the old master.

"What about Yin Wu Lei? Can't I learn that?"

"Yin Five Thunders is a thunder technique for adults; it's too early for you. You can only learn Yang Five Thunders for now."

Zhang Zhiwei fooled the children without batting an eye.

"The true Five Thunder Orthodox Method can only be practiced after becoming a Celestial Master. If you want to learn the complete method, wait until you can inherit my position."

"Oh."

Xia Zhi nodded and continued listening to Zhang Zhiwei break down the Thunder Law bit by bit, explaining it in detail.

Chapter 267 Flying Carriage

In the blink of an eye, two months have passed since Xia Zhi began learning thunder magic.

On the training ground, Xia Zhi and Rong Shan, their bodies glowing with golden light, were engaged in combat.

"Thunder in the Palm!"

Xia Zhi raised her right hand, and a bolt of lightning traveled several meters, striking Rong Shan almost instantly.

In this situation, Rongshan had no way to avoid it and could only rely on the Golden Light Mantra to withstand it.

Crackling!

The blinding blue-white lightning collided with the dazzling golden light, and the golden light was almost completely defeated and routed.

Thunder magic is originally an upgraded version of the Golden Light Mantra, so high-level disciples must have a solid foundation in the Golden Light Mantra before they can learn it.

Although Xia Zhi can't unleash many lightning spells yet, it's already enough to give Rong Shan a hard time.

Under the pressure of the summer solstice, Rong Shan abandoned his defenses and unleashed the Golden Light Mantra in front of him with all his might, trying to block the palm lightning.

However, Xia Zhi's palm lightning was only weakened by half by the Golden Light Mantra, and then it struck Rong Shan.

boom!

"what!"

Rongshan screamed, his whole body trembling slightly, numb from the electric shock.

At the same time, his hair stood on end due to the electric current, turning into an afro!

After learning the Thunder Technique, Xia Zhi often used palm thunder to bully Rong Shan and his other junior disciples.

They started counting down the days, wondering when Xia Zhi would finally leave Longhu Mountain.

This guy is practically the tyrant of Longhu Mountain!

Watching his disciples and followers being electrocuted by Xia Zhi and hopping around like frogs, Zhang Zhiwei not only didn't stop them, but also watched the show with Tian Jinzhong.

"Xia Zhi is only eleven years old and has only been cultivating Qi for a little over four years. You young men can't even beat him, yet you have the nerve to complain to me?"

Therefore, all the disciples of Longhu Mountain who had been chosen by Xia Zhi began to cultivate even more diligently.

Being defeated by lightning magic is nothing, but getting your hair turned into an afro by lightning is really too embarrassing!

Longhushan cannot accept such a trendy hairstyle; Zhang Zhiwei would hang him up and beat him.

Several days later, Xia Zhi packed up her clothes and shoes and bid farewell to her master, uncles, fellow disciples, and nephews.

For the past eleven years, many people have grown up watching the summer solstice.

Seeing that he was going to study abroad, everyone felt a little reluctant to see him go.

Xia Zhi bowed to Zhang Zhiwei, hoping that he could come down the mountain again in more than ten years to wipe out Quanxing and slap down Lu Jin, one of the Ten Elders. He wished Zhang Zhiwei well.

"Master, I won't be back until June next year. Please take care of yourselves and don't make Uncle angry."

Zhang Zhiwei: ? ? ?

He thought Xia Zhi was going to say something sentimental, and he was all ready to shed tears, but this was what he got. He was so angry that he glared at her on the spot.

Tian Jinzhong was amused and burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha! Senior brother, did you hear that? Xia Zhi is so smart!"

Everyone else laughed too, but they were too embarrassed to laugh out loud in front of their master and grandmaster, which eased the sadness and reluctance of parting.

In 91, flying was very troublesome, let alone sending an eleven-year-old child like Xia Zhi to England alone.

Therefore, Snape will come in person to take Xia Zhi to school.

According to Xia Zhi's understanding, the biggest difference between magic and Qi is that magic affects the outside world by changing it, while Qi tends to tap into one's own potential.

Most importantly, magic cannot be learned later in life; wizards in China are often referred to as innate geniuses.

This resembles the Lü family's Minghun Technique, which is passed down through bloodlines.

Qi, however, can be understood through later learning.

In Xia Zhi's view, magic and Qi are actually just degenerate products of magical power.

However, the spiritual energy in this world is dwindling, immortals and gods are nowhere to be seen, elves are struggling to survive, and magical powers are difficult to cultivate, which is why it has become what it is today.

……

Snape arrived at Dragon Tiger Mountain in a carriage pulled by two hippogriffs.

This carriage was enchanted and could fly.

The carriage was certainly not as fast as the flying broom, but the flying broom was too small to carry people.

Many disciples of Longhu Mountain showed expressions of surprise upon seeing the exquisite flying carriage and the two strange beasts.

This is not the internet age yet; even the extraordinary people of the Celestial Master's Mansion on Longhu Mountain are just country bumpkins.

Not to mention that the hippogriff is a unique magical creature in the European magical world, and even the Old Master had never seen it.

Looking up at the sky, Zhao Huanjin, with his round belly, swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"Such a big bird, is it tasty?"

In the sky, the two winged beasts with eagle heads and horse bodies suddenly felt a chill and quickly landed.

"Old Master."

Upon landing, Snape greeted the old master.

Zhang Zhiwei spoke to him very kindly.

"Young man, have you eaten? Would you like to try some of our Longhu Mountain sesame seed cakes?"

"Thank you, Master. I have already eaten."

Snape was clearly not one for small talk; he got straight to the point.

"Does the old master have anything else to say? I will take Mr. Xia Zhi to the hotel to rest first, and the next day I will have an older student take him to buy the things he needs when school starts."

"Of course, there are still some."

The old master stroked his beard and asked Snape.

"You wizarding communities also use pounds?"

Snape shook his head slightly and explained.

“We use gold Galleons, silver Sickles, and bronze Knuts. 1 Galleon = 17 Sickles, 1 Sickle = 29 Knuts.”

"As a freshman, Mr. Xia Zhi receives an interest-free loan of one hundred Galleons each academic year, which is enough for him at Hogwarts."

"Oh, I see. An interest-free loan is not bad."

The old master nodded and asked again.

"How can I exchange some Galleons for him?"

"The wizard's bank is called Gringotts, where you can exchange gold or gems for Galleons."

As a master of potions, Snape finally managed to travel abroad on public funds, and besides the summer solstice, he wanted to bring back some other things.

“In fact, some herbs from China are very rare, and I am willing to pay a high price to buy them.”

"That's easy to handle."

The old master smiled slightly and gave instructions to his two disciples.

"Huanjin, Rongshan, accompany Professor Snape for a walk in the back hills."

The two nodded with smiles.

"okay!"

"Yes, master!"

……

Because he had been gathering herbs for too long, Snape ended up staying at the Celestial Master's Mansion that night.

Many disciples from Longhu Mountain came to watch the winged, horse-headed creature, which made them quite agitated.

Then Xia Zhi appeared around the two strange beasts and silently glanced at them.

Immediately, the hippogriff, with its beastly instincts, sensed a strong threat!

They lay obediently on the spot, just like quails, and were so frightened that they defecated and urinated, making Snape feel extremely embarrassed.

The next day, Xia Zhi, along with the more than five hundred Galleons given to her by Snape, boarded the carriage and bid farewell to the people of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

Snape was clearly very satisfied with his gains; even his icy expression softened.

Chapter 268 Diagon Alley, Buying a Wand

Perhaps because they wanted to get rid of the summer solstice as soon as possible, the two winged creatures with hippopotamus heads flew with extra effort.

It originally took Snape two and a half days to get from Hogwarts to Dragon Tiger Mountain, but it only took him two days to get back.

The carriage landed in the Hogwarts woods, and the two hippogriffs broke free of their reins and immediately flew into the Forbidden Forest without looking back.

Snape had originally planned to have a student take Summer Solstice shopping.

But he had acquired many precious herbs from Longhu Mountain, and considering that Xia Zhi had traveled all the way from China to Hogwarts, he simply took him shopping himself.

As for the things that need to be dealt with when school starts—leave them to Dumbledore.

"Did you bring your acceptance letter? Tomorrow is the first day of Hogwarts. We need to hurry up and buy everything you need today."

Hearing Snape's words and seeing the hippogriff's panicked appearance, Hagrid, who had come over to tidy the carriage and was about to ask Snape what had happened, looked like he had seen a ghost.

Snape glanced at Hagrid, his eyes cold.

“Mr. Summer Solstice’s luggage is inside. Let the house-elves take it to the castle first.”

Hagrid, on the contrary, breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the Professor Snape I know!

"I brought it."

Xia Zhi took out the acceptance letter that Dumbledore had given her, and watched as Snape waved his cloak and strode forward like a giant bat.

"follow me."

The two arrived at a fireplace, and Snape took some powder from a small box of powder next to the fireplace and held it in his hand, saying to Xia Zhi.

"This is Floo powder, which can take you through the Fireplace Network. Shout after me: Diagon Alley."

Snape threw out Floo Powder. With a burst of green flame, his figure disappeared before Summer Solstice's eyes.

Then, Xia Zhi also grabbed a handful of Floo Powder and went into the fireplace to do the same.
