Chapter 18 Teaching the Kung Fu

"This child looks like he has entered the middle stage of Xiantian." Zhang Mengyuan looked at Qingchan and said uncertainly.

"Seventh uncle is right. Qingchan has reached the fourth level of Xiantian a few days ago.

She has been smart since she was a child. She learned to read and write a few years ago and laid a good foundation.

As soon as she came here, I taught her to practice. The foundation of the practice is the One Yuan True Jue."

"So, this little girl has been practicing for less than eight months.

The spiritual energy at the foot of the mountain is thin. Although the Xiantian stage does not need to refine spiritual energy, it still requires some immortal cultivation resources, and the speed of practice is slightly slower than on the mountain.

It took eight months to practice to the fourth level of Xiantian. This little girl is less than ten years old. At this speed, she is at least a cultivator with three spiritual roots."

Seeing that Zhang Zhixuan had found another cultivator with good spiritual roots, the oldest Zhang Menglong stroked his white beard and said happily.

Little Qingchan has been without a mother since she was a child. Her father was busy with official duties and had no time to teach her to read and write.

Although Liu Hushan could not be said to be illiterate, he was not well educated and had not taught Xiao Qingchan to read or write.

Xiao Qingchan had been learning to read and write for the first half of the year since she came here. She had actually started practicing for less than a month.

Moreover, the little girl was young and her personality was not stable. She spent most of her time playing around.

"Qingchan is getting older and it is almost time for her to learn the real cultivation techniques. I hope the elders of the family will allow me to teach the family's cultivation techniques." Zhang Zhixuan found that there were already three elders of the family here and spoke immediately.

According to the rules of the family, it is not allowed for the family's cultivators to pass on the real cultivation techniques.

Every family cultivator will swear a blood oath when learning the techniques.

Any cultivator is very sensitive to this oath and will not easily violate it, so as not to die under the entanglement of cause and effect.

Only the cultivators who join the family will have their cultivation resources opened.

Generally, foreign cultivators can only join the family through marriage.

After all, the Zhang family is a force of immortal cultivators connected by blood, and they can only rely on this to assimilate others.

For cultivators who join through marriage, the family will treat them equally and distribute immortal cultivation resources according to strict rules.

For example, Xiao Qingchan, unless he becomes a Taoist partner with a family cultivator, is considered an outsider and cannot enjoy the core resources of the family.

All mortals in Lushan County will practice the One Yuan True Art when they are twelve years old. Those who practice very quickly generally have spiritual roots.

Once a mortal with spiritual roots is found, Lushan County Magistrate Zhang Menggong will notify the mountain gate. If it is a member of the Zhang family, he will be directly connected to the mountain gate.

If it is a mortal with a different surname, the family will select a partner for them to marry from the cultivators of the right age, and then integrate them into the family.

If they do not want to marry with the Zhang family, these people cannot enter the mountain gate to practice, and will be secretly monitored by the cultivators in the county until they leave Lushan County.

"Since you found this child, let her be your Taoist partner. Do you want to?" Law enforcement elder Zhang Mengchong looked at the others and asked.

Zhang Zhixuan is actually over 40 years old. He has long passed the age of hot-headedness and is quite good at making improvisations.

Moreover, he received materialistic education for more than 20 years in his previous life, and his character has long become a realist.

As long as Qingchan can learn the exercises, Zhang Zhixuan doesn't care about some external forms at all.

Moreover, the family made such rules not entirely to let the cultivators consummate their marriages and try to have children to expand the family's bloodline of immortal cultivators, but also to let the cultivators integrate into the family and completely accept the family's identity psychologically.

"Qingchan is still young now. As long as we provide her with resources and treat her well, her heart will definitely stay at home. Why should we be obsessed with external forms?" Seventh uncle Zhang Mengyuan said disapprovingly.

"The little girl is a female cultivator. It is very likely that she will get married in the future. If she marries someone else in the future, won't the resources invested by the family for many years in cultivating immortals be wasted?" Zhang Menglong said disapprovingly after listening to the words of his seventh brother.

"Don't worry, Uncle Thirteen. When Xiao Qingchan comes of age, I will let her become my Taoist partner. Please agree to let me teach her the secrets of cultivation." Zhang Zhixuan interrupted the elders' argument and said.

If the family's skills need to be passed on to others, at least three elders must agree, and then report back to the elder Zhang Mengling who is in charge of the power, and register it in the family genealogy.

To cultivate Taoism, a cultivator needs money, a partner, a law, and a land. Money does not refer only to spiritual stones, but to all resources for cultivating immortals, including elixirs, magic tools, spiritual talismans, formations, and so on.

Partner does not only refer to a dual cultivation partner, but to relatives and friends of the cultivator, and other relatives and friends who help each other.

Law refers to the cultivation manuals of the cultivators. These cultivation manuals are the result of many years of practice by the predecessors of the cultivators. If they are not very close relatives and friends, it is impossible to pass them on.

Land refers to the spiritual veins that the cultivators cultivate. Without these spiritual veins, it is almost impossible for the cultivators to advance.

Without any of the above, the path of the immortal cultivator will become very difficult. Especially the cultivation method of the immortal cultivator is a great challenge.

Especially for the cultivators who have just started to practice, they still lack the ability to deduce the cultivation method. Without the cultivation method, it is even more impossible to practice.

Unless you have the good luck of Zhang Tairen, the ancestor of the Zhang family, you can find a cultivator's cave and find the cultivation method.

Zhang Zhixuan's cultivation speed is fast, and he has a good chance of building a foundation. His position in the family is becoming more and more important, gradually surpassing some of the monks of the Meng generation.

Xiao Qingchan is the one who was taught by Zhang Zhixuan himself, and her spiritual roots were also discovered by Zhang Zhixuan himself. Her father is also an official in Lushan County. This kind of monk with a clean background is the best fresh blood for the family.

Even if Zhang Zhixuan does not agree to become Qingchan's dual cultivation partner, the family will find a way to let Xiao Qingchan marry into the family when she grows up and become a new member of the family.

Unless the family finds out that Qingchan is a cultivator with a natural spiritual root, in this case, the family will only use Qingchan to trade with Qingxuan Sect in exchange for some immortal cultivation resources.

After all, Qingchan is not the blood of the family, and the family will not be too careful for her.

Now, because they don't know that Xiao Qingchan may be a natural spiritual root, the three elders easily agreed to Zhang Zhixuan's request and regarded Xiao Qingchan as Zhang Zhixuan's Taoist partner and recorded her in the family tree.
