Chapter 816
Seven Treasure Boys! The Prodigy Assessment
"My Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Skill was supposedly given to me by a man of extraordinary appearance. It was later passed down to me and that's how I learned it."
Zhang Lingshan told the truth.
Upon hearing this, Granny Qian remained silent for a long while, her eyes distant, as if she were thinking about something.
After a long while, she said, "Without anyone guiding you, you only ended up in your hands with a booklet, yet you've already learned the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Technique. This shows that you have a connection with our Glazed Tile Sect. Therefore, I wish to teach you the complete version of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Technique. Are you willing to learn it?"
"I am willing."
Zhang Lingshan never expected things to take such a turn for the better, with the other party suddenly becoming the more proactive one.
I thought the other party would investigate and verify whether what I said was true or not, but to my surprise, they believed me directly after I described him as a "remarkable man" with such a vague description.
Unbelievable.
But no matter what Granny Qian was thinking, as long as the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Technique she taught was correct, Zhang Lingshan didn't care what she thought.
Regardless of whether the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Technique she taught was real or fake, the panel would correct it for me, and my own Myriad Laws True Scripture and the Myriad Laws of the Myriad Wonders Gate were not just for show.
In short, this is a good thing, I must agree and learn it first.
"This is a secret treasure of my Glazed Tile School, called the Seven Treasures Boy."
As she spoke, Granny Qian took something out of her storage ring and handed it to Zhang Lingshan.
It was an ordinary little doll, somewhat like it was made of dough, white and quite cute.
Zhang Lingshan took the Seven Treasures Boy and heard Granny Qian explain, "You can activate the Seven Treasures Boy by sending the power of your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Kung Fu into it, and it will then teach you the true Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Kung Fu."
"So miraculous?"
Zhang Lingshan exclaimed in surprise, and then followed his instructions to send in his Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Technique.
Then they saw that the Seven Treasures Boy actually started to dance and gesticulate. With each movement he made, different spots of light appeared on his body, as if he was instructing Zhang Lingshan on how to develop the power of each major acupoint.
If an ordinary person saw these, they might not understand them at first, or they might need to examine them carefully and observe them repeatedly before they could come to a conclusion.
but.
Upon seeing these postures and the corresponding light spots appear, Zhang Lingshan immediately gained insight, and the major acupoints on his body began to throb.
Even without assuming these postures, he could still tap into the power within the various acupoints by following the teachings of the Seven Treasures Boy.
In fact.
Those postures are not important; the reason they are needed is for guidance.
Posture is a means; the ultimate goal is to uncover the hidden treasures within the major acupoints.
Zhang Lingshan, on the other hand, skipped over the gesture and went straight to his ultimate goal.
This scene shocked Qian Da Po to no end. She felt that compared to the other person, she was simply a complete waste.
Back in the day, I was considered a minor genius in the Glazed Tile School, which is why I was able to receive the reward from the Seven Treasures Boy.
After obtaining the Seven Treasures Boy, he painstakingly studied it for several years, following its every move, before finally comprehending the ability to develop acupoints.
Someone like Zhang Lingshan, who immediately grasped the method of developing acupoints as soon as he obtained the Seven Treasures Boy, is probably someone even the most outstanding genius of their Glazed Tile School back then couldn't do.
This kid is truly destined to be with our Glazed Tile School, or perhaps he is the reincarnation of our Glazed Tile School's sect leader?
Grandma Qian dared not think any further.
If I think about it again, wouldn't I have to just bow down and worship?
She didn't even dare to look anymore; the more she looked, the more shocked she became.
While Zhang Lingshan followed the Seven Treasures Boy to develop the power of his acupoints, he also sent out his divine consciousness, fearing that Granny Qian might have some bad intentions.
As a result, they saw Granny Qian inexplicably retreat to a distance, no longer even looking at their side.
'That's excellent.'
Zhang Lingshan didn't know why the other party was acting this way, but as long as it didn't affect him, it was a good thing.
So he continued to use his divine sense to keep a watchful eye on his surroundings while working with the Seven Treasures Boy to develop his acupoints.
Time slips away slowly in this process of contemplation.
Finally, the Seven Treasures Boy stopped making any moves, and the light spots on his body stopped shining, returning him to his original shape as a dough figurine, motionless.
If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely have to give the Seven Treasures Boy the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Technique again, and then observe and learn it again.
For example, Aunt Qian had to go through this process many times before she finally understood.
However, Zhang Lingshan doesn't need it, because it's already included in the panel.
[Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Skill: Beginner, 0/1000]
'It's actually on par with the Immortal Spirit Body, the Heavenly Wind Divine Curse, and the Extreme Cold Ice Talisman.'
Zhang Lingshan was secretly amazed.
This Liuli Sect must be extraordinary, otherwise it wouldn't have such a top-notch body-refining technique.
Such an extraordinary sect was actually wiped out; how powerful must the force that destroyed it have been?
No wonder Granny Qian only dared to hide in the Ice Spirit Sect and live a low-key life.
"The Seven Treasures Child can be further activated; it's not a disposable item. Why don't you use it anymore?"
While Zhang Lingshan was observing the panel, Granny Qian noticed that he was not moving and suddenly asked a question.
Zhang Lingshan cupped his hands and returned the Seven Treasures Boy, saying, "Thank you for bestowing this treasure upon me, senior. I have already learned how to use it, so please return it to its rightful owner."
"you……"
Grandma Qian opened her mouth, but she simply didn't know what to say.
You've already learned it?
Although she just saw that Zhang Lingshan learned very quickly, according to her estimate, no matter how fast you learn, you would still need to review it more than ten times with the Seven Treasures Boy to remember it.
But now, the other party actually claims that they have already learned it.
Is this nonsense, or is it really true?
"Practice it for me once."
"That's what Grandma Qian said."
Zhang Lingshan said, "I didn't remember the movements, I only remembered the order of each acupoint."
As he spoke, Zhang Lingshan did not demonstrate for him personally, but instead quickly tapped Qibao Tongzi hundreds of times.
The positions and order in which he applied the acupoints corresponded to the positions and order in which the acupoints lit up.
Granny Qian's eyes twitched slightly as she took the Seven Treasures Boy and fell into a long silence.
'He must be the reincarnation of the sect leader, otherwise it's impossible to explain why the sect leader went to the lower realm. That extraordinary man was just a hallucination he created in his own dream. Or perhaps it's the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Technique he obtained from his previous life.'
Grandma Qian couldn't help but have this thought in her mind.
But she quickly shook her head, suppressing the strange thought in her mind.
Regardless of whether the other party is the reincarnation of the sect leader, the other party is not the sect leader at present, but just a minor Golden Immortal, a minor Golden Immortal who cannot even withstand a slap from me.
and so.
There's no need to think so much.
When the other party can truly cultivate to a higher level, it will not be too late for me to become his sect leader.
However, by then, the person will probably have already remembered their past life, so there's no need for Granny Qian to worry about it anymore.
In short, no matter how things develop from here, Qian Da Po doesn't need to worry about it.
As Shen Zhixin, the sect leader of the Ice Spirit Sect, said, the two of them already carried too much on their shoulders and were too tired. How wonderful it would be if someone could help them share the burden.
At that moment, Granny Qian saw hope.
Isn't Li Xuanbing the best person to share the burden?
He was just an ordinary disciple of the Glazed Tile School, while Li Xuanbing was an exceptional talent, and might even be the reincarnation of the sect leader himself.
Then shouldn't he be the one to inherit the heavy responsibility of reviving the Glazed Tile School?
"Li Xuanbing, now that you have learned our Glazed Tile Sect's secret Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Technique, you are now a disciple of our Glazed Tile Sect. Do you understand?"
"Grandma Qian said in a deep voice."
Zhang Lingshan asked, "If I become a disciple of the Glazed Tile School, can I still be a prodigy of the Ice Spirit School?"
“Yes, it’s fine, there’s no conflict. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have taught you the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Technique,” said Granny Qian.
Zhang Lingshan nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then I am both a disciple of the Ice Spirit Sect and a disciple of the Glazed Tile Sect. A dual disciple. However, if I become a disciple of the Glazed Tile Sect, won't our Ice Spirit Sect Master mind? Do I need to tell him the truth?"
"It won't affect anything. The Ice Spirit Sect's sect leader has always been a woman. Even if you become a prodigy, you won't become the sect leader. As long as you're not the sect leader, you can leave the sect in the future. However, the Glazed Tile Sect's sect leader doesn't restrict gender. You can become the Glazed Tile Sect's sect leader in the future."
"That's what Grandma Qian explained."
This time, it was Zhang Lingshan's turn to remain silent.
He felt like he had been tricked.
The Glazed Tile School has been destroyed. What right do I have to be the sect leader? Wouldn't that just be giving the powerful figures who destroyed the Glazed Tile School a hard time?
If someone gets the mood one day and wipes out Zhang Lingshan, this imposter sect leader, wouldn't I be in deep trouble?
"As for the matter of becoming the sect leader of the Glazed Tile Sect, I am too low in cultivation level and experience, so let's discuss it later. However, is it only you who survived in the Glazed Tile Sect? There must be other strong individuals who would be more suitable to be the sect leader."
Zhang Lingshan said.
Granny Qian said, "Even if there are survivors, they all live in hiding and dare not contact each other, lest they attract the attention of those with ulterior motives. So you must also remember that unless you break through to the Immortal Emperor level and become an Immortal Emperor powerhouse, you must be careful when displaying your Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Technique."
"Immortal Emperor?"
Zhang Lingshan was speechless for a moment.
That would be ages before it's too late.
The Xuanjin Body cannot be displayed, and the Seven Treasures Glazed Technique cannot be used openly.
As for the Immortal Spirit Body, it should be no pushover either; once it is revealed, it is highly likely to attract attention.
What use is this body I have for!
When will I be able to stand proudly and upright in the celestial realm?
Zhang Lingshan couldn't help but sigh.
"Practice diligently and don't lose heart."
Seeing Zhang Lingshan sigh and look dejected, Granny Qian comforted him, saying, "Of all the people I have ever met, only you have the potential to become an Immortal Emperor! As long as you focus on cultivating the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Technique, one day you will be able to reach the realm of an Immortal Emperor!"
"Thank you for your kind words, senior. I will definitely work hard and make progress so as not to let down your kindness in passing on your skills."
Zhang Lingshan said earnestly.
Granny Qian smiled slightly and said, "You still call me senior? Call me senior sister."
"Senior sister."
While Zhang Lingshan called out those words, he secretly wondered if he was now burdened with karma.
Dealing with these Celestial Kings is really difficult.
One forced him to marry a wife, while the other used the pretext of transferring his skills to make him accept the karma of the Glazed Tile School.
Sending his wife away was, in the end, taking on karma, and he was completely bound to the Ice Spirit Sect.
Fortunately, I possess the panel, which is a talent that defies the heavens.
For an ordinary person, this cause and effect would probably have crushed them long ago, leaving them terrified and their skin crawling.
"Hey."
Granny Qian agreed and said, "Since you've called me Senior Sister, I'll give you a treasure."
As she spoke, Granny Qian took out a palm-sized round ball and handed it to Zhang Lingshan, saying, "This is a crystal jade that can release crystal light. When you cultivate the Seven Treasures Crystal Technique, hold this jade in your hand and you will receive the blessing of crystal light, making your efforts twice as effective."
"Thank you, senior sister."
Zhang Lingshan took the glass jade but did not use it immediately. Instead, he put it away to study later.
At that very moment, a dazzling light shot into the sky from the main peak, symbolizing the opening of the council hall.
Upon seeing this light, all the peak masters of the Ice Spirit Sect, regardless of what they were doing, unless they were in seclusion, would immediately come here to discuss matters.
and so.
It is clearly inappropriate to experience the radiant light emitted by the crystal jade at this time.
“Yes, let’s go over there too. You’re the star of the day, everyone’s here for you.”
"That's what Granny Qian said."
She was now very polite to Zhang Lingshan, no longer grabbing him and dragging him towards the council hall, but instead guiding him with a gentle force using her right hand.
If Ji Buyi were to witness this scene, he would be so shocked that his eyes would pop out.
Why is this happening?
You don't treat me like this, Mrs. Qian. Why are you acting this way?
Whoosh!
A figure streaked across the sky and landed at the entrance of the council hall. It was an old man dressed in blue. He glanced at Granny Qian, then noticed Zhang Lingshan beside her, and asked, "Who is this child? Did the sect leader convene this meeting today for him?"
"Yes, the sect leader is about to begin the prodigy assessment, and he is one of the candidates. Haven't you received the news? What about the prodigy candidates from your Qingling Peak?"
After saying this, Granny Qian said to Zhang Lingshan, "This is Chang Songqing, the peak master of Qingling Peak."
"Greetings, Peak Master Qingling."
Zhang Lingshan cupped his hands in greeting.
Chang Songqing said, "I have never seen you before. You should not have joined our Ice Spirit Sect yet. I think you have a connection with me. If you join my sect, I will use the power of Qingling Peak to help you cultivate."
"Who is this person who could possibly win the heart of our Qingling Peak? It's unbelievable."
A voice suddenly came from afar, followed by a man and a woman.
The man was tall and handsome, with a smile on his face; he was the one speaking.
Beside him stood a gentle woman who immediately greeted Chang Songqing and Granny Qian: "Junior Wen Wanyu greets Peak Master Qingling and Protector Qian."
It turns out that Granny Qian is a protector of the Ice Spirit Sect.
Only then did Zhang Lingshan realize the truth.
"Young man, what's your name? To have the sect leader start the prodigy assessment ahead of schedule for you, you must have already been accepted into the sect by the sect leader. Hehe."
The man chuckled, seemingly speaking to Zhang Lingshan, but actually mocking Chang Songqing.
Chang Songqing snorted, "The sect leader is working so hard for the sect, how can he have the mind to teach disciples? It would be most suitable for him to join my Qingling Peak."
"You're getting anxious because you don't have any outstanding candidates under your command. Don't worry, there will be other opportunities later."
The man continued, cutting to the heart.
Chang Songqing roared, "Di Jun, shut your bird mouth! So what if you have candidates? With this little brother around, even the most outstanding talents have no chance, hahaha!" (End of Chapter)
