Joining Tiandao Company: Starting by mending a zombie world

"Come on up!" Chu Sheng walked to the stairs and called Zhou Li up to the second floor.

Zhou Li glanced at the room on the second floor, casually tossed her purse onto the table, and asked curiously, "Why are you working as a security guard here?"

Chu Sheng shook his head: "I bought it."

"You bought it? Where did you get the money?" Zhou Li's tone rose, tinged with surprise.

At this point, she changed the subject:

"You didn't snitch on me, did you?"

"Tell me out?" Chu Sheng curled his lip and said disdainfully, "I earned it by selling a few Yuan Shikai silver dollars."

As he spoke, he took out his phone and handed the transfer record to Zhou Li: "Here, take a look."

"No!" Zhou Li reached out and pressed down Chu Sheng's hand, which was holding his phone, and said seductively:

"I believe you, but you still don't?"

"Let's take a bath!" Chu Sheng said, pointing to the bathroom. "Let's bathe and burn incense."

"Really?"

Zhou Li looked past Chu Sheng into the bathroom and saw a large wooden tub inside.

I went over to take a look.

A few small flowers were floating inside the wooden bucket.

"Does it have to be this formal?" Zhou Li turned to look at Chu Sheng and asked happily.

"Let's be more formal," Chu Sheng nodded.

"Then..." Zhou Li pulled Chu Sheng's hand, then whispered in his ear, "Let's do it together."

……

After bathing and burning incense.

The two were completely open with each other. Zhou Li was filled with anticipation and kept seeking the same intense tenderness from Chu Sheng as before.

Who knew?

Chu Sheng remained completely unmoved. Instead, he took out a talisman brush, dipped it in cinnabar, and said:

"Don't move."

"I will also draw runes on your body."

A hint of confusion flashed in Zhou Li's eyes as she asked in bewilderment:

"You...you're not trying to replenish your yang energy by absorbing yin energy, are you?"

Chu Sheng didn't hide anything and looked at Zhou Li seriously:

"I've reached a crucial moment in my training."

"I need your help. If you don't agree, you can back out now."

"but…"

His tone became very serious as he said, "Once you start, you can't stop."

Zhou Li's fingers unconsciously traced the rim of the bucket, her voice softer than before: "Won't this process... be very uncomfortable?"

Chu Sheng's pen didn't stop; the vermilion ink flowed smoothly, outlining an arc:

"When your mind is relaxed, you won't feel bitterness."

"How long...will this continue?" Her breathing tightened slightly.

Chu Sheng looked up at the darkening sky outside the window: "Three hours. It will be complete at sunrise."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Li's eyes lit up. Instead of being afraid, she was filled with anticipation: "Then... you come, I can hold on."

Chu Sheng said no more.

No buffs were added this time either.

After all, it is unknown whether the founder rejected the mixing of Buddhism and Taoism.

This time, he did not write a traditional Taoist scripture, but rather the Heart Sutra.

"When Avalokiteshvara Bodhisattva was practicing the profound Prajnaparamita, he perceived that the five aggregates are all empty, and thus transcended all suffering and distress..."

The Buddhist scriptures have been copied.

Feeling uneasy, Chu Sheng found a red thread and tied Zhou Li up with it.

The red lines, like vines, twine around, outlining undulating curves.

I secretly admire my own hands-on skills; the result is exactly the same as Ms. Kui's.

Zhou Li was breathing rapidly, tears streaming down her face, and her eyes were completely glazed over.

"Concentrate."

Chu Sheng knew the time was right, so he drank the tiger's blood and silently practiced the guiding techniques from the "Introduction to the Joyful Zen Visualization Method".

Zhou Li closed her eyes as instructed.

Initially, a gentle warmth spread from the lower abdomen, like a small cup of wine warmed up on a winter night.

But soon, that warmth came alive.

It flows along the path drawn with cinnabar, wherever it passes.

It felt as if my skin had been gently brushed by an extremely thin cicada wing, sending a shiver down my spine.

This is not pain, but a strange, completely exposed vulnerability.

As time quietly passed, the air became exceptionally sweet, swirling and surrounding the two of them.

……

Downstairs is the shrine, on the altar.

"Madam, isn't the master a Taoist?"

Why is a bald monk's Heart Sutra placed inside the house?

Madam Qingling said, "Perhaps it is because the master has a special constitution and needs to cultivate both Taoism and Buddhism."

"Dual cultivation?" Su Xiaoyao blinked her fox-like eyes. "Wouldn't that be incredibly powerful?"

Lady Qingling nodded: "My lord is so young, yet he has already achieved the Great Perfection of the Lesser Heavenly Circuit."

"In this day and age, that's already considered a master."

"If only we could break through to the Great Heavenly Cycle."

"Apart from the ancestors, you can walk sideways without any trouble."

……

One night passed.

The blush on Zhou Li's face had long since faded, and her breathing had become long and steady.

Chu Sheng sat cross-legged on the futon, continuously absorbing the pure yang energy brought to him by the tiger's blood.

As the first rays of sunlight shone on Baihui.

He hissed, "Now!"

Immediately, the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" was pushed to its limit.

In an instant, the surging internal energy, like a river bursting its banks, rose from the dantian and rushed straight to the Du meridian along the Baihui point.

Then, following the Ren meridian, it flows back to the Dantian.

The hall downstairs.

Lady Qingling suddenly looked up at the second floor, her illusory face showing surprise.

"Such a strong fluctuation of yang energy! Master is attempting to break through the Great Circulation!"

Su Xiaoyao also noticed the abnormality. Her fox eyes widened as she saw a faint mist seeping out from the cracks in the doors and windows on the second floor.

"Madam, is it possible for Master to succeed?"

"The Yin and Yang have already moved, and the Dragon and Tiger have met. There shouldn't be any problem." Lady Qingling's tone was solemn, but her eyes were filled with expectation.

Swah——

As soon as the words fell

The sunlight falling on the second floor seemed to possess a magnetic force, bending and converging into Chu Sheng's brow, finally coalescing into a purple vertical eye.

Chu Sheng heard a "buzzing" sound in his ears.

He could clearly "hear" the sounds of blood flowing through his body and his internal organs churning.

The most noticeable change is in the dantian.

Originally gaseous, Qi undergoes countless microcosmic cycles.

A drop of heavy, mercury-like, golden-red true qi, with an inner radiance, condensed at the core of the dantian.

This officially allowed him to enter the Great Circulation!

"The purple aura of the rising sun, the Lesser Pure Yang Body is formed!" Chu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of golden-red light seemingly passing through them.

As he finished speaking, the purple vertical eye on his forehead disappeared beneath his skin.

He walked to the mirror, touched his increasingly handsome face, and revealed a proud smile.

In this era, those who have entered the Great Circulation and achieved the initial formation of the Lesser Pure Yang Body are considered to be at the pinnacle of the Xuanmen (Taoist) path.

As long as you don't do anything heinous or offend the wrong people.

He was confident he would have a great time.

"Ding ding ding..."

Just then, a pleasant cell phone ringtone interrupted Chu Sheng's wild ambitions.

He glanced at the caller ID, nudged the sleeping Zhou Li, and handed her the phone.

"It belongs to Chen Ming."

Zhou Li looked at Chu Sheng with sleepy eyes, trying hard to recall everything from last night.

The kind of wonderful pleasure that made her willing to offer her body.

It's simply unimaginable.

It made her wish she could kneel before Chu Sheng and become his most loyal follower.

Chu Sheng was unaware that the "Introduction to Joyful Zen Visualization Chart" could also guide people into the path of enlightenment. He assumed Zhou Li was just confused after waking up, so he asked again:

"Follow up with a 'one'?"
