Please call me Dadaozu

Chapter 159 Dao Master, what a nice title! (4000)

"If it weren't for my junior brother, we would have died without a burial place." The female Taoist standing behind the young man said softly.

The tone is soft and sweet.

The four of them stepped forward, each with a friendly smile on their face.

Zhang Yuanzhu loosened the knife handle with his five fingers, reached up and took off the mask.

He revealed his handsome face with a pair of double pupils, and looked at the four approaching disciples of Wuliang Palace with a half-smile.

"Four Daoists, why do you have to be so hypocritical and let me look down on you?"

Open and fearless.

For a moment, both the square-faced young man and the Taoist who walked forward together were stunned where they were.

They looked at the double pupils and the face and fell into silence.

As expected, the other party was not a disciple of Wuliang Palace.

No matter how similar the spell is, there are still some differences when it is cast.

The young Taoist leader sighed softly.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang is right. It's me who is the problem."

Strands of light bloom on his body, sacred and majestic.

"It would be great if a man as outstanding as Brother Dao were truly a disciple of the Wuliang Palace."

The other three fell into silence. After spending a few brief moments together, they could already tell the temperament of the young man in front of them.

Frank, gentle, and decisive.

Because of this, and the other party's talent, he must be killed at all costs.

There is no room for negotiation due to different positions.

Strands of light emerged on the body, entangled with each other, and merged into one.

The low sound of chanting slowly rose up, echoing in the sky, on the ground, and in the vast ancient forest.

"Infinite Heaven, Infinite Earth, Infinite Dao, Infinite Light!"

Zhang Yuanzhu listened to the familiar chanting and sensed the rapidly rising momentum.

Place your palm on the hilt of the knife and tap it lightly.

"If it were usual, I would still be somewhat elegant and discuss things with the four Dao brothers, but today..."

"one move!"

"One move, breaking the spell and killing the enemy."

The ethereal sound drowned out the chanting.

At this moment, the night disappeared, the bright moon disappeared, and only heavy snow fell from the sky, occupying the world.

Red lotus flowers grow from the snow, gorgeous and beautiful.

Every lotus petal is crystal clear and flawless.

The sky was filled with snow and red lotuses were emerging from the ground, as if a myth had been recreated. It was extremely beautiful and gorgeous.

The four Taoists looked at everything in front of them blankly and even forgot to recite the scriptures.

The square-faced young man seemed to realize the outcome he would face today, and a hint of bitterness appeared on his face.

"My fellow disciples, the path to immortality is bumpy and difficult, and the afterlife is not."

"Please!"

"Ha! Ha! Brother, why do you have to say such a depressing thing?"

"You want to kill us with one move? Come, let me see."

Long howls cut off the fear in the heart and turned into the sound of grand chanting.

"Infinite heavens, infinite earths, infinite paths, infinite light, my path is infinite."

"kill!"

Brilliant, divine light burst out from the bodies of the four people, transforming into a vast ocean that rushed forward.

Wherever it passed, the snowflakes melted and the red lotus trembled.

But it could not break through the heavy snow and gradually disappeared into thin air.

Between heaven and earth, only the heavy snow remains and the red lotus blooms brilliantly.

But there was no sign of the four Taoists.

A young man stood with a sword slung over his shoulder, looking at the four defeated opponents, and murmured:
"If my life is my own, then I can plant red lotus under the snow."

The low humming sound echoed in the wind and snow, and then faded away.

The slender figure also disappeared, snow fell all over the sky, and red lotus emerged.

Four days later.

Black Horn Spiritual House, thousands of miles to the east.

A cave was opened in the broken wall.

Zhang Yuanzhu sat cross-legged on a cushion, surrounded by pearls inlaid on his body, shedding light and driving away the darkness.

"After four days of running, we should be safe."

The boy whispered.

This cave has just been opened up, and many formations have been set up around it.

He planned to practice here for a while and take stock of the spoils he had obtained from the battle.

While thinking, Zhang Yuanzhu stretched out his hand, and a storage bag appeared between his fingers.

This was the spoils he obtained from the old man Kudu.

He held the bottom of the bag with his five fingers and shook it gently, but nothing fell out.

The boy looked surprised, but soon he thought of something.

Some high-level storage bags rely on blood and spiritual consciousness to open, and are not like low-level storage bags that can directly pour out items.

This kind of high-level storage bag is exclusive to foundation-building cultivators. It was the first time he got such a storage bag, and he didn't react at all.

Fortunately, he is a formation master, and there is still a way to crack this storage bag.

He pulled the storage bag back in front of him and tapped it lightly with his five fingers. Lines appeared from his fingertips and spread all over the bag.

Stab! Stab!
Cracks appeared on the bag, and the entire storage bag was shaking.

Zhang Yuanzhu's face was calm, and his five fingers quickly brushed across the bag.

Pick up the storage bag and pour it directly down.

Crash! Crash! Bang!
Before he could pour out a few items, the storage bag exploded and the items inside disappeared.

But at this time, Zhang Yuanzhu's eyes were fixed on the items on the ground, and he didn't pay attention to the damaged bag.

The young man raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looking at the golden mace on the ground with joy.

"So, this spiritual weapon was bought by you."

"A mid-grade spiritual weapon, the Golden Mace!"

Zhang Yuanzhu murmured, stretched out his hand, and grabbed the spiritual weapon.

Bang!
A rolling wave of air was generated, sweeping through the cave, but the spiritual weapon was only lifted a little.

"Good weight!"

The young man's eyes narrowed slightly.

He felt like he was lifting a mountain, but even with his physique, he was showing signs of being unable to support it.

At this moment, the magic power in Dantian surged, and the skin, bones, muscles, and even the five internal organs exerted force at the same time.

Boom!

The entire cave was shaking, and the golden mace was brought in front of him.

Zhang Yuanzhu felt it carefully and smiled even more happily.

Although he couldn't use the spiritual weapon, there was another way to use it. He whispered in his heart:
'Control!'

In an instant, the golden mace disappeared.

Deep in the soul, on a green leaf of the Seven Wonderful Treasures Tree, the golden mace floats in the red and blue divine light.

The mirror surface also changed with the arrival of the mid-grade spiritual weapon.

[Level 2] Golden Mace (Ability: Moving Mountains)

[Level 1] Shorea Bark (Ability: Comet Heart)

[Level 1] Dragon Blood Spirit Wood (Ability: Coercion)

"Does the spiritual weapon correspond to level 2?"

Zhang Yuanzhu’s thoughts.

So what is the [Characteristic] Moving Mountains?

The young man stretched out his hand and felt his own strength rising rapidly, and also adding some things that he could not handle.

His pupils flickered and his palms were placed on the ground.

boom!
A wonderful feeling emerged in his heart, as if he could listen to the pulse of the earth.

The land beneath my feet has a special sense of affinity.

Bend your five fingers slightly and tap gently following the pulse of the earth.

Rumble!
The entire cliff trembled slightly, raising clouds of dust.

Frightened roars of beasts rang out around the rock wall.

Zhang Yuanzhu stretched out his hand, placed it in front of his eyes, looked at the five fingers with distinct joints, and chuckled softly:

"Ah!"

"So this is what moving mountains is. Now I can actually move mountains."

"But." Zhang Yuanzhu tilted his head slightly and looked at the mid-grade magic weapon inserted aside - the Xuanshui ruler.

This was the first magical weapon he obtained.

Now, the strength increase is not as good as [Characteristic] Moving Mountains, not to mention [Characteristic] Moving Mountains has affinity with the earth.

The Xuanshui Ruler has no value in control and can only be used as a magic weapon for attack.

He reached out, grabbed the Xuanshui ruler, and put it behind his back.

Then he took off his shoes and socks, put away the cushion, and sat cross-legged on the ground.

At this moment, he once again listened to the pulse of the earth. Strands of pure spiritual energy rose from the ground and flowed into his body, increasing the magic power in his dantian.

"It's worthy of being a spiritual weapon."

Zhang Yuanzhu sighed softly.

Then he looked at the other items poured out from the storage bag, including spirit stones, pills, and some sealed insect eggs.

He just glanced at it and ignored it.

It's just something insignificant.

After counting the spoils, Zhang Yuanzhu took out two jade slips from his arms.

"The Cry of Fire Crow" and "The Art of Golden Light" are his gains from the auction, which are related to his future path.

He reached out his hand and picked up the two jade slips.

I opened it carefully, memorized the contents, and then put it away.

The most important thing for him now is not to practice the newly acquired spells, but to successfully condense the magic patterns of the sixth level of Qi training.

A few days ago, he performed a combination of Taoist techniques - Planting Red Lotus Under the Snow.

He clearly felt that the obstacle that hindered the concentration had disappeared, and he could condense the magic pattern at any time.

breathe~breath~
Zhang Yuanzhu placed his arms flat on his knees to calm his inner excitement and cut off all distracting thoughts.

I don’t know how long it took, but the double pupils that were open slowly closed.

Within the Dantian, the magic power began to surge, and the five magic patterns were like swimming fish, constantly changing positions.

The phantoms of the Qilin and the dragon roared towards the sky and purified their magic power at a very fast speed.

As time passed, Zhang Yuanzhu's understanding of the Eight-sided Fire Technique became deeper and deeper.

A shadow with patterns appeared in the dantian, carrying a mysterious Taoist rhythm.

Five magical patterns that had already condensed gathered around the phantom, as if waiting for something.

A cup of tea!

A stick of incense!!
One hour!!!
The shadows of the lines continued to solidify, gradually leaping from virtuality into reality.

At the same time, the pressure of the magic pattern on the body became greater and greater, and the muscles, bones, and internal organs were all trembling.

This time the concentration of the magic pattern is far better than before, but fortunately it is still within the tolerable range.

Noisy!
With a sound of Taoism, the illusory magic pattern was completely solidified.

In an instant, the six magic patterns vibrated together, emitting brilliant light, like six small suns rotating around the dantian.

At this moment, Zhang Yuanzhu was speechless. He had never seen such a change in any ancient book.

While the young man was thinking, the six magic patterns collided at high speed and gathered together.

In the blink of an eye, it turned into a small seal, suspended in the magic power.

This small seal is formed by a series of Taoist magic patterns, carrying a mysterious aura and a strong Taoist charm.

The young man had deep pupils, and as he carefully sensed the small seal, a hint of understanding gradually appeared.

The technique of growing red lotus under the snow has been completely perfected, without any flaws.

This is recognition from Tao.

From then on, he could perform it immediately upon thinking about it, and it became an instinct.

Call ~
The boy let out a breath of foul air.

He stood up, stretched out his hand, and a red lotus appeared.

The red lotus is gorgeous and beautiful, without a single flaw, as perfect as a work of art.

The palm dropped, and the red lotus fell to the ground without causing any damage.

The boy's smile grew even more delighted at the ease with which he handled the matter.

The magic pattern was condensed successfully, so the next step was to practice "The Record of Blazing Sun True Fire" with all my strength.

Raise your cultivation level to another level.

However, before that, a little guy needs to be arranged.

While thinking, he patted the monster bag lightly.

A dog demon rushed out with books in its mouth.

Woof~woof~
Da Huang growled and rubbed the boy's clothes affectionately.

Then, he went to the corner, lay on the ground, and started reading a book.

The young man glanced at Da Huang and confirmed that he had started studying the exercises.

He took out the Great Sun Spirit Essence directly from the storage bag and placed it on his abdomen.

The spirit gathering array also began to be arranged.

Zhang Yuanzhu sat cross-legged on the ground barefoot and began to practice.

Rays of golden light emerged from the abdomen, illuminating the cave.

The vast spiritual energy swarmed towards the slender figure.

The pure spiritual energy from the earth continuously flows into the body.

For a moment, his cultivation speed was even faster than in the market town.

Day after day, month after month.

Zhang Yuanzhu was immersed in spiritual practice.

Every moment, he was practicing his skills to absorb spiritual energy and refine the light of the sun.

A month later.

A figure sat cross-legged on the ground.

He had a slender body, emitting a faint glow, and his pupils were bright, as if a sun was embedded in them.

Just sitting cross-legged on the ground without any movement gives living beings a sense of sacredness and heaviness.

Zhang Yuanzhu looked inwards into the depths of his soul, at the mirror composed of red and blue.

Realm: Qi Training Level 99.99 (%)

Just half a step away from a breakthrough.

"Today, a breakthrough."

The young man spoke with absolute confidence.

The next moment, the magic power in Dantian surged, continuously rising, and leaped to a higher level.

The shadow of Nuo mask, Qilin and red dragon stood on both sides of the magic stream and roared continuously, trying their best to purify the magic power.

When the magic power breaks through, the body also begins to transform, and the muscles, bones, and internal organs continue to strengthen.

Different from the change from the fifth to the sixth level of Qi training, the change from the sixth to the seventh level of Qi training is a breakthrough of a small level and a greater transformation.

For example, when one breaks through from the third level of Qi training to the fourth level, one will have the power to control magical instruments.

After breaking through to the seventh level of Qi training, your strength will surely increase dramatically.

Wow! Wow!
The sound of rolling waves echoed in the cave.

Click!

The sound of breaking rang out in his heart, and Zhang Yuanzhu felt his whole body lighten.

The next moment, the magic power in the dantian rose rapidly.

Countless magical powers condensed into raindrops and fell, splashing water in the magical stream.

The magic power in Dantian increased from the size of a stream to the width of a lake.

Zhang Yuanzhu's closed eyes slowly opened.

Stab it!

The void turned white, like a pair of magic swords, cutting through the air and directly cutting open the cave.

"Wang~wang~"

"Master, you have made a breakthrough."

A childish voice came from the side.

I saw a yellow dog the size of a calf, circling around the boy excitedly, its tail wagging wildly.

I am happier than my own breakthrough.

Zhang Yuanzhu lowered his eyes, looked at Dahuang, and shook his head.

He reached out his hand and patted the dog's head.

"You don't need to call me Master, just call me Fellow Daoist."

The big yellow beast paused slightly, with doubt in its eyes, and even its tail stopped wagging.

It was born not long ago and actually does not understand things that are too complicated.

It is also impossible to produce complex sounds.

After a moment, Da Huang responded obediently:
"Master Daoyou, it's Dao Master."

"Then Da Huang will call the master Daozhu from now on."

Zhang Yuanzhu withdrew his palm, supported his jawline, looked at Da Huang lying in front of him, and muttered to himself:
"Daoist!"
