Chapter 9 Six Paths of Heaven

"Are there really immortals in the world?" Zhao Mu asked.

"Yes, it is said that there were immortals in the area where the Great Jin Dynasty was located tens of thousands of years ago, and these are all recorded in history books."

"Until five thousand years ago, the immortals seemed to have had a great war. Since then, the immortal way declined and the martial arts began to gradually prevail."

"It is said that at that time, the martial arts practice had three major realms above the innate realm: Grandmaster, Martial Saint and Heavenly Man."

"Unfortunately, after thousands of years, the martial arts has gradually declined. Today, in the Great Jin Dynasty, even the innate masters are rare in the court."

Hua Xinzi sighed.

Zhao Mu was a little excited when he heard it.

The immortal way is extinct?

The martial arts are declining?

It doesn't matter, I have an endless lifespan and I have plenty of time to pursue.

As long as I can be sure that there really were immortals in the world, I believe that one day I will definitely find that way.

Zhao Mu stood up: "Tell me where you hide the things. When I get the things back, I will naturally give you what you want."

"Okay!"

Hua Xinzi said very straightforwardly: "The things are hidden in the basement of a Zen room in Shanquan Temple. I will draw a map to point out the specific location. Please keep your promise."

After that, she walked to the desk and drew a sketch.

"Don't worry, I always keep my promise to beautiful women."

Zhao Mu smiled, took the map and left.

"Am I beautiful?"

Hua Xinzi touched her cheek and secretly scolded: "If I am really beautiful, why didn't you look for me again for two years after the last transaction?"

...

Shanquan Temple is in the capital.

It is not a martial arts sect, but an ordinary temple. There are often pilgrims coming to burn incense during the day, but it is very quiet at night.

Zhao Mu sneaked into Shanquan Temple and spread the voice-hearing Gu to avoid the monks patrolling the temple.

After a while, he found the Zen room indicated by Hua Xinzi's map.

The Zen room was quiet, and no pilgrims stayed overnight.

Zhao Mu took out the tools he had prepared and quickly dug up the ground of the Zen room, revealing a knee-high black wooden box.

He opened the box and saw a pile of jade jewelry inside, each of which was priceless.

In addition to jade jewelry, there were also several bottles of elixirs and three books in the box.

Elixirs should be used to improve cultivation, and their value is estimated to be higher than those jade jewelry.

After all, this kind of thing is different from ordinary elixirs and is quite difficult to refine.

In the Jin Dynasty, only the top-level Jianghu sects and high-ranking officials and powerful families had the strength to refine, and the quantity would not be large.

Zhao Mu put the elixir aside and picked up the three books.

One of the books is called "Water Contains All Things", which is the internal strength method that Hua Xinzi taught at the beginning.

The other book is naturally "Medicine King Canon".

Zhao Mu roughly flipped through it, and there were indeed many prescriptions for changing qualifications and improving cultivation.

These things are simply priceless treasures for warriors.

Any sect that gets it can cultivate a large number of masters in the shortest time and dominate the world.

No wonder so many people competed for the "Medicine King Classic" at the beginning.

Putting down the "Medicine King Classic", Zhao Mu picked up the last book again, which had four words written on it: Tianmen Six Paths.

Hua Xinzi had never mentioned this book, and obviously didn't think it was valuable at all.

But when Zhao Mu opened it and took a look, his face became more and more solemn.

The content of this book shocked him completely.

"Tianmen Six Paths" is a profound but very useless internal strength method.

It is said to be profound because it is actually a method that can directly lead to the immortal way.

Hua Xinzi once said that today's martial arts practice is divided into third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, acquired extreme realm and innate.

And hundreds and thousands of years ago, there were more powerful realms in martial arts, namely Grandmaster, Martial Saint and the most powerful Heaven Realm.

The so-called six gates of heaven refer to the existence of six mysterious gates of heaven in the human body, namely the hand gate, foot gate, body gate, life gate, heart gate, and the final gate of heaven.

According to the description in the book, as long as a warrior opens the first hand gate, he can become a second-rate warrior, open the second foot gate to enter the first-rate, open the third body gate to be a congenital, the fourth life gate to be a master, the fifth heart gate to be a martial saint, and the sixth heaven gate to be a heavenly man.

More importantly, this technique can actually continuously transform the practitioner's physique during the practice process.

If someone can open the sixth heaven gate, he can even breed immortal roots in his body.

The so-called immortal roots are a necessary condition for practicing immortal ways.

There are countless people in the world, but those who are born with spiritual roots are rare among millions of people.

And "Six Paths of Heaven" can actually breed immortal roots after birth, which shows how profound it is.

But on the other hand, this technique is also very useless, because its practice actually depends on time.

According to the description of the technique, it takes five years to open the first hand gate.

After that, the second foot gate takes twenty years, the third body gate takes sixty years, the fourth life gate takes one hundred and thirty years, and the fifth heart gate takes two hundred and thirty years.

As for the last sixth heaven gate, it takes four hundred years to open it.

Except for the immortal cultivators, who in this world can live to be four hundred years old?

So for the world, "The Six Paths of Heaven Gate" is worthless, no wonder Hua Xinzi didn't even mention it.

But others can't practice, but Zhao Mu can.

His biggest advantage is that he has an endless lifespan.

What's more, this technique can actually change the cultivation qualifications, just like it was specially made for him.

The only problem now is to confirm the authenticity of "The Six Paths of Tianmen".

At least we should know the origin of the technique, and it's better not to be made up by a charlatan.

Thinking of this, Zhao Mu immediately leveled the floor of the Zen room and left quickly.

Jiaofangsi.

In the dark, Zhao Mu walked into Hua Xinzi's room again.

"You're back?"

Hua Xinzi heard the noise and immediately got up and got out of bed: "How is it, did you get the things?"

Zhao Mu put the box on the table: "I got it, you gave me a surprise this time."

"Really? The complete version of "The King of Medicine" is indeed invaluable. Hehe, you have to give me two more masterpieces this time."

Hua Xinzi smiled charmingly.

But she didn't know that the "surprise" Zhao Mu was referring to was not "The King of Medicine".

At this time, Zhao Mu opened the box and took out "The Six Paths of Tianmen": "Can you tell me about this technique?"

"The Six Paths of Tianmen?"

Hua Xinzi took the book in surprise: "Why are you interested in it? This technique is just a legend. Almost no one has succeeded in practicing it from ancient times to the present."

"Almost?" Zhao Mu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Does it mean that someone has succeeded?"

"Uh... there should be one."

Hua Xinzi explained: "It is said that hundreds of years ago, there was a cultivator who came to the Jin Dynasty and accepted an apprentice without immortal roots."

"In order to allow his apprentice to practice immortality, the cultivator took great pains and finally created this "The Six Paths of Tianmen", and also found a large number of natural treasures that can increase the life span for the apprentice."

"Legend has it that since the creation of "The Six Paths of Tianmen", only the disciple of the cultivator has succeeded in practicing it. After that, no one has succeeded."

"After all, treasures that can increase life span are not something that warriors can find in large quantities."
