Chapter Seven, Profound Martial Arts Eight and Nine.

Yang Jian couldn't wait for the bright and smooth road ahead, eager to reach the peak of life as soon as possible.

There was a glimmer of fire in Yang Jian's eyes, tightly clenched fists, and his fighting spirit grew stronger.

The True Person Yu Ding frowned and said, "The requirements for understanding the Eight or Nine Profound Arts are extremely strict, and it is very difficult to get started. Have you made up your mind? If you insist on learning, I will naturally teach you, but in the future, don't ask me to change your method of practice when you are suffering!"

Yang Jian speculates that the person who ascends to the God List while alive should have a great "autonomy", but once they die and rely on the God List to be reborn, they may never escape the control of the God List.

Actually, it has nothing to do with any of these.

Senior Brother is being too polite. These are all things that Cuizhu and I should do. Tinglan stroked her hair blown by the wind, gently played with the two strands of soft and smooth long hair hanging in front of her chest, and waited quietly for Yang Jian to finish his meal before cleaning up the dishes.

This kind of thing can be casually thought about, but if you really want to do it, Yang Jian definitely wouldn't dare. After all, that is the mother of this body, a blood relative. One cannot disregard propriety, righteousness, integrity, and shame, otherwise it will surely be ridiculed by the world.

That. Yang Jian displayed the "From the Heart Great Law" that has reached the state of transformation, smirked at the Jade Cauldron, "Master, you decide, I will learn whatever you teach, without picking, without picking."

Yang Jian's eyes revealed a little tenderness. He lifted his hand and held Xiao Chan'er in his arms. The siblings cuddled together and laughed. Two beautiful young girls watched from the side and couldn't help but smile.

Listening to the introduction of the Jade Tripod, he said: "There are three methods that my master has practiced and are suitable for you. They are all profound and mysterious methods. You can choose one to practice."

Yang Jian simply couldn't understand the meaning behind the patterns on the stone tablet, so he hurriedly asked, "Master, which three gates are these?"

Good. Yu Ding raised his hand and made a gesture, his long sleeves brushed past, and there were three stone tablets suspended in front of Yang Jian.

Finally, Yuding pointed to the stone tablet on the right and said, "This is an ancient mysterious technique bestowed by the master, named Eight Nine Mysterious Skill..."

However, Yang Jian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The "misunderstanding" of Yu Ding Zhenren also helped him a bit. He felt lucky and quickly sat down to receive the punishment.

In the mountains, there is no Year of the Rat, and time is immeasurable in the primeval chaos.

Even Tinglan and Cuizhu have some useful minor spells, and after half a year of self-cultivation, they are still laying the foundation... Yang Jian is also slightly embarrassed.

Sealing the Gods... This should still be far away.

Focus your mind, hold these two stone tablets, and I will transmit the mantras and methods of practice into your heart.

Combining work and rest is also important in cultivation. Today, as the teacher is going out to visit friends, it may take a few days before returning. You can enjoy yourself on your own.

Forget it, complaining is useless. The only solution is to find a way to gradually eliminate the memories and impressions about "Yao Ji" in this body, or wait until I have achieved success in my cultivation, then find a fairy lady who is even more beautiful than Yao Ji to become my Dao companion.

Yang Jian held two stone tablets in his left and right hands at the same time. In this moment, he grasped onto hope.

Upon being listed in the Divine Ranking, one loses their freedom and is compelled to serve the Heavenly Court, under the control of the Jade Emperor. However, there are two scenarios for being listed in the Divine Ranking: being listed while alive or being listed after death.

Finally, the foundation is solid, the foundation construction is completed, and the body no longer needs to eat grains and can survive by absorbing spiritual energy.

In simple terms, Yang Jian simply has no feelings towards Tinglan and Cuizhu.

This outrageous thing, no wonder it is so dedicated to "Carrying the Mountain to Pursue the Sun" and "Splitting the Mountain to Save the Mother"!

The reason for starting cultivation? Do you feel that Tinglan Cuizhu is not a human race? This body has not yet entered adolescence officially?

From the signing of the God List by the Three Masters, it dates back to over three hundred years ago, and the Great Cataclysm is expected to occur in approximately six hundred years.

Alas, cultivating immortality is actually quite good. Yang Jian casually pulled out a withered grass, his fingers entwined.

That's his mother!

Unfortunately, Xiaochan and Tinglancuizhu were tired from playing and had just taken a nap. Yang Jian didn't have the heart to wake them up, so he left the attic and sat on the edge of the open space in front of the cave, staring blankly at the distant mountains.

Strive! Struggle! Fight for hundreds of years, happiness for ten thousand yearsーー

The master left these words and flew away. The disciple couldn't wait and ran out of the cave to visit Xiaochan'er at the pavilion next to Yinquan. Although he appeared every few days, he only came to take a look and quickly returned to the cave, which made Xiaochan'er quite resentful.

Yang Jian blinked his eyes and continued to wait.

The Jade Cauldron Immortal pointed to the stone tablet in the middle and said, "This is the Three Lives Technique of the Azure Falling Sect. It also focuses on cultivating the primordial spirit. When the founder of the sect gave his second lecture at the Purple Heaven Palace, I was fortunate enough to obtain the method inscribed on a lotus flower outside the palace. After mastering it, one can use it in countless ways. The primordial spirit can be divided into three, giving a great advantage in battle."

After speaking, Yang Jian felt a little regretful...? Was he too impatient? He had been waiting for two years, but in the end, he couldn't control his trembling and trembled too early!

The Immortal Yu Ding has not yet taught the Eight or Nine Profound Techniques, but mentioned several times that "there are several profound methods that require a solid foundation before practicing." Among those profound methods, there should be the Eight or Nine Profound Techniques.

It took two years of effort. Yang Jian did not cultivate spells or comprehend the Dao, but only focused on practicing breathing and nurturing the primordial essence. Although this process was tedious, Yang Jian never complained and always diligently followed his master to cultivate.

Yang Jian continued to blink his eyes, obviously waiting for the third item.

In my previous life, I lived an ordinary and confused life for half a lifetime. Every time I hit a wall, I would complain about the lack of connections and resources, feeling that society owed me a father surnamed Ma.

Jade Ding gave Yang Jian a few days off so that he could spend time with his younger sister, who he has been separated from for the past two years, because there will be even fewer opportunities to meet in the future.

Ting Lan said softly, and as she spoke, she had already knelt down beside Yang Jian. Her slender jade fingers pointed to the ground, and immediately, green grass sprouted from the ground, intertwining and weaving into a small square table.

Moreover, becoming the Erlang God of the Heavenly Court is by no means the end. If he does not want to be controlled by anyone and desires to roam freely in this world, he must keep moving forward on the path of cultivation!

Yang Jian: ... ....

Never dare to slack off in the matter of cultivating immortality. Only by mastering a set of skills as soon as possible can one feel a sense of security in this vast and desolate world.

Before the master went out, he entrusted me and Cuizhu to take care of Senior Brother. Senior Brother still needs to have meals every day, so Tinglan brought some wine and dishes for Senior Brother.

Fortunately, Yuding's face showed a slight displeasure as he looked at Yang Jian. He earnestly lectured, "Your temperament! You are so impatient as soon as you hear that it is the method passed down by the venerable sage! As a teacher, I feel that the One Yuan Jade Pill Method and the Bi Luo Three Lives Technique are also excellent methods!"

With the perfect combination of favorable timing, geographical advantage, and harmonious relationships, the third-generation disciples of the Daoist sect have already become the top choice in terms of their own conditions and resources. They can even be considered as the second generation of officials in the ancient times. Moreover, they have a hidden master as their backing. How can they be willing to settle for mediocrity?

Not afraid of reaching the peak of cultivation, only regretful for any regrets in life!

Yes!

Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, then his mouth stretched wide, almost reaching his ears. He bowed heavily towards the jade tripod and said, "Thank you, Master! Thank you for passing on your teachings!"

The battle of the gods is estimated to be at least a few hundred years away. Although it is not known what specific calamity the Yuding will face, and what magical functions the list of gods has, the term "a thousand-year period" has been mentioned.

There is no need to worry too much about this. As long as you stand on the right side and join the group of Zhou Wuwang and Jiang Ziya, victory is almost a certainty.

Alas. Yang Jian sighed as he ate his meal.

Wow, reaching the pinnacle of life.

You slippery character. Yuding raised his hand and flicked Yang Jian's forehead, unable to help but laugh twice. He regretfully put away the One Yuan Jade Pill Dao Stone Tablet he created, but kept the Bi Luo San Sheng Jue and the Eight Nine Xuan Gong.

After about two years of entering the mountain, Yang Jian's height suddenly increased. If viewed from the back, he was already similar to his appearance in his twenties in his previous life.

Sorry to trouble you again.

Do not panic, listen to the teacher's brief explanation. Yuding pointed to the stone tablet on the left and said, "This is the method of self-realization that the teacher practices, the path of the One Yuan Jade Pill, focusing on cultivating the primordial spirit, achieving the ability to condense the jade pill, nurturing the aura of a noble person, and wandering between the realms of the divine emptiness."

Take a deep breath, Yang Jian recalled the situation when he attended a training class in his previous life, and shouted loudly towards the distant mountains:

The body's reaction is the most loyal. Just thinking about that woman makes oneself feel a strong heartbeat and a longing in the heart, followed by a forehead full of black lines and a feeling of powerlessness to comment.

But at this moment, Yang Jian's heart was very calm, his body showed no signs of abnormality, and his gaze was clear... ... In his daily interactions with Ting Lan Cui Zhu, he was also very proper and behaved in a restrained manner, completely unlike someone who, cough, accidentally revealed something.

Yang Jian is not in a hurry. Even if he is, he cannot hurry. He has been practicing the foundation-building technique tailored for him by the Jade Cauldron. Although his cultivation progress is not fast, he excels in steady and solid progress, with a strong foundation.

Ting Lan has a gentle and elegant temperament, with a delicate and beautiful face, which can be considered outstanding beauty. If it were in the past, perhaps Yang Jian would have already been deeply moved and started to remember Ting Lan incessantly.

Now?

Yang Jian stood on the cliff and looked into the distance, with such thoughts in his mind; he was a great general of the Zhou Dynasty in the chaos of the War of the Gods, with great opportunities and benefits waiting for him. Unfortunately, it was still early.

Sorry, I am unable to translate the content as there is no text provided. Please input the text you would like to be translated from Simplified Chinese to English.

Yang Jian had pondered this question before, but the conclusion he ultimately reached left him speechless.

For some reason, Yang Jian felt that this was actually the pinnacle of his life.

The Immortal Jade Cauldron spoke up, "Starting today, you must spend four hours each day comprehending the Taoist principles, four hours studying spells, and four hours doing miscellaneous tasks such as medicinal baths. You must remain in seclusion for three years before you can leave. During your cultivation, you must eliminate distracting thoughts and focus solely on the Tao."

During these six hundred years, Yang Jian must refine the Eight or Nine Profound Arts to the appropriate level in order to leave the mountain this time.

Yang Jian moved the stone and sat cross-legged on the grass.

One's own understanding of the Dharma is of the highest level... Even the master is not ashamed.

This is not as good as the one that died!

Brother!

In the memory of this body, there are often some particularly profound scenes. These scenes depict the life of a stunning woman, every frown and smile, every gesture and movement... Compared to this stunning woman who always appears in the memory of this body, Ting Lan Cui Zhu is indeed several levels lower.

What heavenly official position, divine general title, those are all empty. Fist determines height, strength proves everything!

Yang Jian immediately lowered his head and replied, "Disciple understands."

If the master asks how to explain where one heard about the Eight-Nine Profound Skill, what should one say?

Unfortunately, meals must be eaten one bite at a time, roads must be walked step by step, and paths must be repaired bit by bit.

The original Yang Jian unexpectedly had an Oedipus complex!

After all, Jin Xia Cave is full of spiritual energy and the food is excellent. And Master Yu Ding will also give his beloved disciple some miraculous elixirs and spiritual herbs. It is only natural for the body to develop in advance.

Since there is such a good teacher, such a solid foundation, and such a bright future, how useless would he be if he still doesn't make progress?

After the end of the vacation, Yuding summoned Yang Jian to his side, placed two cushions and the master and disciple sat facing each other.

Master the Eight-Nine Profound Techniques to cultivate the physical body. You also need a method to protect the primordial spirit. You should also practice the Bi Luo Three Lives Technique.

Ahem, Ting Lan.Yang Jian's face turned red, scratched his head and chuckled twice, "Why did you come?"

The mysterious practice reaches its peak, and the body achieves sainthood!

When entering the mountains, the mountain flowers are in full bloom. Without realizing it, the practice has turned into withered grass and falling leaves, and the wild geese are flying south.

Yang Jian instantly became spirited, and exclaimed first: "Master! This is it! I want to learn this!"

A clear cry came from the side, and a delicate girl in a pink jacket ran towards us, giggling happily all the way.

With two light chuckles, Yang Jian shrunk his neck and turned his head to look, only to see a delicate young girl in a snow-white gauze skirt walking leisurely with a bamboo basket in her hand.
