Chapter Nine, Tongtian Jiao Master
Zhang Mingxuan suddenly felt that his time to rise to prominence had come, and he became bolder, humbly stating: "It's just average! There will be better things to come!"
The Celestial Master smiled slightly and said, "Don't be nervous, I am here to buy a book. I have purchased this book, but I have no money!"
Zhang Mingxuan immediately flattered, "Please take whatever you desire! It is a small honor for me!"
Zhang Jun opened the book and took a closer look, only to see the author had written "Invincible Little Overlord"! What kind of name is that! Zhang Mingxuan certainly would not tell Zhang Jun that this was his online name on Earth
Zhang Mingxuan happily said: "It is 20 wen!"
Zhang Jun had just walked for a while when a man in a blue robe, with a long sword at his waist, entered the crowd. He appeared ethereal and aloof, completely out of place in the surrounding environment, yet it seemed as if no one noticed him at all
Zhang Jun happily paid 20 wen, and Zhang Mingxuan certainly would not tell him that twenty volumes could produce a total of 130 copies. Zhang Jun walked away joyfully with the inexpensive book for 20 wen. Zhang Mingxuan tossed the 20 wen in his hand, also very pleased, a win-win situation for everyone!
After finishing his words, the Tongtian Master vanished without a trace, and the sounds of commotion from outside came rushing back in. Zhang Mingxuan, in a daze, slumped into his chair. The books were all deceiving; in the novels of his past life, every traveler faced with a powerful adversary remained unyielding, passionately shouting slogans like "Might cannot be subdued!" It was all a lie. Only when truly confronted could one experience that sense of helpless despair, where the body was completely beyond one's control.
Zhang Jun was instantly bewildered and at a loss, having never encountered such a situation before! He approached the counter with the book in hand and asked Zhang Mingxuan, "What about the rest? Why is it missing?"
Zhang Mingxuan broke out in a cold sweat and stammered, "No! Actually, my favorite is still you. This ranking is based on age and does not represent anything!"
Tongtian did not express a clear opinion and continued, "The cultivation method practiced in the Qingyun Sect is the Taiji Xuanqing Dao, right? It is divided into the Taiqing Realm, Yuqing Realm, and Shangqing Realm! Do you think Taiqing and Yuqing are stronger than Shangqing?"
Zhang Mingxuan felt his legs go weak, almost scared to the point of losing control. Who is Tongtian? The Supreme Being of the Upper Clear! Indestructible through countless tribulations, untouched by cause and effect, the supreme existence that remains alone when heaven and earth are destroyed! Yet here I am, just a novice! How could I have attracted the attention of such an existence, and even have them come knocking at my door? In that instant, Zhang Mingxuan had a feeling: a pill!
Then there is the Qinyun Sect Q&A, a glimpse into the splendid scene of the immortal realm that the Qinyun Sect has to offer. The competition for disciples within the Qinyun Grand Hall brings a knowing smile to Zhang Jun's face; even immortals have such an interesting side! However, this Zhang Xiaofan should be the main character, right!
Zhang Mingxuan spread his hands in helplessness and said: "The author hasn't written it yet, just wait!"
Zhang Jun's first impression upon opening the book was, what is this? The entire text is in colloquial language, accompanied by peculiar symbols.
Zhang Jun continued to read on, observing the characters: the steady senior brother Song Daren, who was learning the art at Dazhu Peak; the second senior brother Wu Dayi, who enjoyed light tunes; the diligent practitioner Zheng Dali; the book-loving He Dazhi; the childlike Lv Daxin; the gambling enthusiast Du Bishu, whose name truly suited his fate; and the clever and quirky junior sister Tian Ling'er. There was also the gentle and kind master Su Ru, the insincere yet image-conscious Tian Buyi, and a large yellow dog. The multitude of characters seemed to come alive before his eyes, as if performing. His spirit moved with the book; when he saw Zhang Xiaofan and Tian Ling'er in danger in the valley, he felt anxious, and when he witnessed Zhang Xiaofan's progress, he felt joy. The clever and quirky junior sister Tian Ling'er, the gentle and kind master Su Ru, the insincere yet image-conscious Tian Buyi, and the large yellow dog all contributed to this vivid experience. The characters appeared to act out their stories, and his heart resonated with the narrative. He felt tension when Zhang Xiaofan and Tian Ling'er faced peril in the valley, joy when Zhang Xiaofan made progress, and laughter at Du Bishu's dice artifact. With the Seven Meridians uniting in martial arts and myriad immortals gathering, flying swords and magical treasures traversed the heavens and the earth, Zhang Jun also felt a sense of pride.
The Tongtian Cult Leader continued, "The story is well written, and I like it very much"
Zhang Jun, unwilling to accept, said: "How can this be? Who is the author? I will go find him!"
Zhang Mingxuan was overjoyed! The Tongtian Cult Leader said he liked him very much, so I am in the clear; it is either not causing trouble or rewarding the author! Supreme techniques, innate treasures, or immortal pills and spiritual fruits
The Tongtian Cult Leader said: "Do you really like the Human Teachings? The name uses the Taiji Xuanqing Dao, with Taiji as its emblem, and places Ta Qing at the highest position"
Zhang Jun hesitated for a moment, rubbing his hand over the cover for a while. He thought about not being able to see Zhu Xian, not being able to see Zhang Xiaofan, Tian Ling'er, and Du Bishu for a period of time, and felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
After turning over the page, if you wish to know how the story unfolds, please wait for the next inquiry to be resolved! It is indeed a playful matter
Indeed, in this novel "Zhu Xian," the Taiji Xuanqing Dao does not continue the original classification of Taiqing, Shangqing, and Yuqing, but has been altered by Zhang Mingxuan to Taiqing, Yuqing, and Shangqing, placing Shangqing at the most basic level. Upon hearing the words of the Tongtian Cult Master, Zhang Mingxuan's initial excitement and joy were immediately doused by a bucket of cold water; one misstep could lead to death!
Zhang Jun read two chapters but did not find where the fairy was, nor did he see the scenes he wanted to see, and he felt too embarrassed to ask Zhang Mingxuan.
Zhang Jun let out a sigh and said: "Fortunately, it's quite cheap. Other books are priced at 70 to 80 wen each"
The man in the blue attire looked at Zhang Mingxuan and said, "I am Tongtian"
Patiently looking down, Zhang Jun sighed upon seeing the tragic events of the previous chapters in Caomiaocun, lamenting the harshness of the world, a chaotic era filled with demons! Not to mention a small village, even a great nation could be devoured by a single demon. He then felt fortunate to be born in the Central Plains, where there is a heavenly court above and a netherworld below, and the teachings of the sages are passed down through generations, so there is no fear of demons causing chaos. At this moment, he was captivated by the content of the novel, flipping through the pages with great interest, and he had come to understand the application of punctuation marks, which he could not help but praise as exquisite! It was just a pity that it appeared in a legendary story; the works of great scholars were truly the rightful place for such punctuation to be introduced! Thinking of this, Zhang Jun felt a twinge of pain in his heart, feeling an immense sense of regret, a lament for the misallocation of heavenly resources!
Zhang Jun saw that Zhang Xiaofan had drawn a bye and smiled knowingly, saying, "What great luck!"
I comforted myself, saying: "This is just a prelude, it will come soon."
The man in the blue attire walked into the bookstore, smiling as he looked at Zhang Mingxuan. Upon seeing the man in blue, Zhang Mingxuan immediately stood up, respectfully waiting for a reprimand. He himself did not understand why he had to do this, as if it were instinctive, feeling the need to maintain respect towards this person
Zhang Mingxuan immediately realized why the Tongtian Cult Master had come to him; he had committed an infringement! He truly wanted to give himself a slap on the face. At that time, he had thought of the Heavenly Court, the Underworld, and even the demons, but how could he have overlooked this true big shot! The Tongtian Cult Master!
With a bite of his teeth, he said: "How much? I will buy it!"
The Master of the Heavenly Way took the sword from his waist and placed it on the counter, saying: "I will not take your book for free; I will use this sword as collateral. I will come to retrieve it once I have the money."
The Master of Heaven extended his hand, and a copy of "Zhu Xian" automatically appeared in his grasp from the bookshelf. He caressed the cover of the book and said, "Zhu Xian! What a wonderful name!"
