Under One Person: Communicating with Xiao Zizai about his condition at the beginning

In an instant, people moving around in the villa, including Chen Zhuo, Qu Tong, Ma Xianhong, all looked towards the second floor.

However, what followed was a long silence.

Everyone was wondering why Lu Liang hadn't come down yet?

Chen Zhuo was lying on the sofa, flipping through a thin book in his hand. This was Qu Tongmo's trick.

Several people looked at Chen Zhuo.

Chen Zhuo stretched lazily, put the thin book into his swallowing bag, and said lazily, "I'll go up and take a look."

Chen Zhuo stood up.

Then he walked towards Lu Liang's bedroom on the second floor.

dong dong dong.

Chen Zhuo knocked on the door.

Immediately, the door opened and Lu Liang stood behind it, his face pale with exhaustion and an expression of shock that he could not hide.

Chen Zhuo leaned against the door frame:

"what happened?"

"Why did you stop howling after that?"

Lu Liang's voice was a little dry:

"Brother Chen, come in."

"I'll show you Mr. Tian's memories."

Chen Zhuo raised his eyebrows and walked into the house.

Lu Liang raised his hand, and a blue ball of light floated on his palm. Shen Yi grabbed it and pressed it between his eyebrows.

In an instant, Chen Zhuo felt dizzy and his mind seemed to be pulled into a spiritual world shrouded in clouds and mist.

The fog has cleared.

In front of him stood a short man with big ears, wearing a cloth coat and a plain hat. He asked seriously:

"Jinzhong, do you really have to know the truth?"

A resolute voice came out of Chen Zhuo's mouth: "Huaiyi, if you don't tell me the truth, I won't let you go!"

Chen Zhuo understands.

This is from Tian Jinzhong's perspective.

The short man in front of him is Zhang Huaiyi.

During the Jiashen year, Tian Jinzhong and Zhang Zhiwei went down the mountain separately to look for Zhang Huaiyi, but Zhang Zhiwei found nothing.

However, Tian Jinzhong found it.

Zhang Huaiyi sighed:

"The thirty-six thieves we swore brotherhood were truly of the same mind and shared mutual admiration. During these turbulent times, we were hunted down by various clans. I won't judge whether we were right or wrong. I can only say that we should be responsible for our choices. I don't regret that brotherhood."

Tian Jinzhong retorted:

"You know that's not what I'm asking."

"If it's just a sworn brotherhood, you just need to come back with me. Master will definitely be able to protect you. Why don't you come back with me?"

"Could it be because of the Eight Great Techniques?"

Zhang Huaiyi was silent for a moment, nodded and said slowly:

"exactly."

"My enlightenment of the Eight Great Skills stems from an opportunity Fourth Brother received. This opportunity contains a truth."

"A truth about Tongtian."

Tian Jinzhong was shocked and stammered:

"Tong, Tongtian?"

Zhang Huaiyi nodded. Since he had chosen to say it, he no longer wanted to hide it from Tian Jinzhong.

"In the world of extraordinary people, putting aside those who are born with extraordinary skills, those who practice acquired cultivation mostly cultivate the secret techniques passed down by their ancestors. These secret techniques also often describe the realm of transcendence. In addition, in ancient and medieval times, there were many legends of ascension. However, up to now, no one has achieved the state of transcendence."

Tian Jinzhong said:

"Isn't it because our disciples are dull and have never realized that profound realm?"

Zhang Huaiyi smiled:

"I used to think the same, but it wasn't until that drunken sworn brotherhood that Fourth Brother revealed a shocking piece of news to us."

"It's not that we are inferior to the ancients."

"It's that the path to heaven has been cut off. Those who practice cultivation in this world have no hope of achieving immortality and ascension. Moreover, this isn't a natural sign, but rather the active collaboration of the masters who have ascended to immortality in this world."

Tian Jinzhong's eyes were blank, and he muttered:

"Why... why is this?"

Zhang Huaiyi said slowly:

"Fourth Brother said that the elder's legacy was vague, but only vaguely mentioned that the gods are unkind and treat all living beings as straw dogs."

"All the great calamities of the ancient world, whether during the Xia, Shang, Zhou, Qin, Han, or Tang dynasties, were marked by the activities of heaven and man. In all such times, they inevitably brought devastation to all living beings."

Tian Jinzhong was stunned:

"So the Heavenly Road is cut off to protect this world?"

Zhang Huaiyi nodded slightly:

"Do you know our Tianshi Ferry?"

Zhang Huaiyi looked at the almost dazed Tian Jinzhong, stretched out a finger, and pointed to the sky:

"I suspect that the Heavenly Master's Ferry doesn't hide any method of cultivation, but rather the secret of the severance of the Heavenly Path."

"Besides our Tianshi Mansion, Wudang, and Shaolin, any sect that has a legend of its founder ascending to heaven may have similar secrets."

Tian Jinzhong sorted out his thoughts:

"This news is indeed shocking, but what does it have to do with the Eight Great Techniques?"

Zhang Huaiyi said:

"Because the Eight Wonderful Techniques are not techniques from this world, but methods from heaven and man!"

"what?!"

Zhang Huaiyi looked at Tian Jinzhong, who was shocked, and said solemnly:

"Jinzhong, what happens next is only known to Fourth Brother and the nine of us who have mastered the Eight Wonders."

"Fourth Brother has placed a restriction on us, forbidding us to reveal this secret. However, what I have learned has surpassed his, so the restriction has no effect on me..."

"But do you still want to listen?"

"This is a truly horrific secret."

Tian Jinzhong was already immersed in Zhang Huaiyi's mysterious narration. He urged:

"Huaiyi, please speak quickly."

Zhang Huaiyi paused:

"Fourth Brother learned a secret from that opportunity. With the right time, place, and people, the Heavenly Road will be temporarily weakened, or even reconnected."

"However, by then, the news of the Thirty-Six Bandits' Oath of Brotherhood had already leaked, and we were hunted by various factions, forcing us to hide from place to place."

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. There will be more exciting chapters later!

"Later, I received a message from my fourth brother. It was the time when the nine stars aligned and the Heavenly Road was reopened. He asked us to gather at a secret Feng Shui location to glimpse the opportunity of the Heavenly Road."

"We are all cultivators. Who can resist such temptation? We all went there secretly without any prior arrangement."

"In the end, only the eight of us managed to escape the pursuit and interception of the various families and reunite with Fourth Brother."

Tian Jinzhong asked:

"What happened next? What did you see?"

Memories emerged in Zhang Huaiyi's eyes:

"Later, we followed Fourth Brother's instructions and sat in a circle on the day when the nine stars aligned, using the earth's energy to connect with the sky, hoping to catch a glimpse of the magnificent view of the Heavenly Road."

A look of shock appeared in Zhang Huaiyi's eyes:

"The moment the road to heaven reopens."

"I saw a beauty so magnificent that it is beyond description in this lifetime."

"The beauty between existence and non-existence, the interplay of reality and illusion, the omnipresent wonder, all the profound explanations in the Taoist and Buddhist scriptures seemed to become crystal clear at that moment."

"But only for a moment."

"The Heavenly Road closed again."

Tian Jinzhong's eyes were gleaming, and he was just hearing the exciting part, but it felt like something stuck in his throat. Zhang Huaiyi sighed:

"The Tongtian Road closed, but a Tongtian Dao Fruit condensed. The eight of us practiced based on our own foundations and realized the eight extraordinary skills passed down from the world from this Tongtian Dao Fruit."

Tian Jinzhong asked subconsciously:

"Where is the Tongtian Dao Fruit?"

"Can it really reach the sky?"

Zhang Huaiyi looked at the sky and sighed:

"maybe."

"But I can't tell you where that Dao Fruit is."

"I can't go back to Longhu Mountain."

"The temptation to go to heaven will bring great disaster to the sect."

Chapter 132 New Crisis

When Tian Jinzhong heard this, he suddenly realized that there was such a great secret hidden behind the Eight Great Skills.

People in the world are greedy.

Once this secret is made public, all the extraordinary people will start a chaos in pursuit of the so-called Tongtian Dao Fruit.

Zhang Huaiyi said solemnly:

"Jinzhong, this is the secret of the Eight Wonders. Fourth Brother originally set up a ban, and none of us can reveal it to the outside world."

"But what I have realized has surpassed that of Fourth Brother Wu Gensheng, so I can reveal it to you, and you..."

Tian Jinzhong said without hesitation:

"I understand, I will never reveal this secret!"

……

At this point, Tian Jinzhong's memory gradually faded.

Chen Zhuo came back to his senses.

Looking at Lu Liang, his eyes were also full of surprise.

Lu Liang murmured:

"Brother Chen, immortality, the opportunity to reach the sky."

"The Eight Great Techniques are more far-reaching than we imagined."

Chen Zhuo nodded.

In Tian Jinzhong's memory, Zhang Huaiyi still had some reservations. At least Chen Zhuo could be sure that the so-called Tongtian Dao Fruit...
