That day, Changtao felt that his Primordial Spirit was slightly trembling, as if it was about to mature. Changtao told his Little Gray, you can stay by my side and practice, and I feel that I, as a Primordial Spirit, am about to mature, so I need you to stay in seclusion for a period of time to help me cultivate, and as a result, the Little Gray flew down from Changtao's shoulders and stood on the stone table, squeaking as it replied. Thus, Changtao sat down quietly on the stone bed, and slowly closed his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, a year had passed. In that one year, Little Gray would always fly in and out of the cave, but Changtao did not wake up at all, as it was raining cats and dogs outside. Little Gray was quietly sitting by the side of the stone bed, when suddenly a bolt of lightning struck down, right on the big tree in front of the cave.
When the lightning struck the tree, Changtao had already woken up, but he did not immediately open his eyes. This was because the lightning had brought a trace of inspiration to Changtao, and he immediately sank into deep thought, thinking to himself, Changtao could feel the power of nature, this power was boundless, even if humans could resist it, they could not imitate it. However, in Changtao's own heavenly dao, he felt a sense of familiarity towards the power of nature.
When Changtao woke up again, it was already evening. When he opened his eyes, he discovered that the Little Gray was not by his side, thus he used the Spiritual Sense to search for the Little Gray, and discovered that the Little Gray was fighting with a huge python, that the python was seven or eight meters long and very thick, thinking that it was probably around the size of a bucket. Changtao felt that the python was at least a few hundred years old, thus, he flew towards the place where the Little Gray was fighting. As for the python, it seemed to know that this human had no intention to kill it, so it used all of its powers to fight this human. Changtao activated his Arts while observing the python's movements and movements, paying attention to his surroundings, afraid that other pythons would sneak attacks from the same species.
Seeing that the python was about to die under Changtao's sword, Changtao actually flew to the side of the Little Gray. Because Changtao's Spiritual Sense had found a Demonic Beast of the same cultivation level that was flying over quickly, he was afraid that the Little Gray was in danger, so he did not kill it all. At this time, a huge python that was several times larger than the original flew over from the sky and directly landed beside the little python.
Changtao said: "My name is Wu Changtao, are you training here? "Why haven't I seen you before?"
The giant python replied: My name is Tian Mang, I have always been quietly training in a cave at the back of the mountain and rarely come out to walk. Coincidentally, today, my son has not come back from his journey, so I came out to look for him, and discovered that he was fighting with you, and felt that your cultivation is about the same as mine. I was afraid that my son would be in danger, so I came over to take a look.
Changtao said: "Actually it's nothing, I saw my brother Little Gray fighting with the little python because I was afraid that he would be in danger, so I came to take a look. When I saw that the Little Gray was injured, I came over and replaced the Little Gray.
Tian Mang said: "Your brother, are you talking about this little bird? "Yi, what kind of bird is this? I've never seen it before, and I've never heard of it either. I wonder what kind of bird it is, can you tell me?"
Changtao said: "That's right, he's my brother. We have been together for almost fifteen years, but I don't know what kind of bird he belongs to, nor do I know what kind of eagle he looks like. I gave him the name of" Bird King Ying Zun ", I usually call him Little Gray."
Tian Mang continued: You call him brother, but I feel that Demon Realm and Immortal Realm are opposing each other, how can you treat him as a brother? Could it be that you are not a cultivator, but your Arts told me that you are a cultivator?
Changtao said: "I don't care about demons or immortals, the Little Gray is my brother. As long as I can protect him, I won't let him get hurt."
Tian Mang said: "Alright, well said, you are one of the humans that I admire the most, you are right, there is no need to care about immortals or demons, as long as you think you are worthy, there is nothing wrong with it. Young people, I admire you, are you willing to be friends with me, a snake spirit?"
Changtao said: "En, this junior is willing, but junior has a request, and hopes that senior can agree to it."
Tian Mang said: "Alright, say it. If I can help, I will definitely help you."
Changtao said: "It's like this, Little Gray are birds of the same species, they are not suitable for us humans to cultivate in, junior humbly requests senior to be able to teach the Little Gray a set of flying type Arts, then Changtao will be extremely grateful to senior."
Tian Mang said: "No problem, I just happen to have a set of flying Arts s, which is suitable for him to cultivate in. It's just that the Arts s are not very strong, when he reaches level, he would think about your sect's Primordial Spirit s."
Changtao said: "Then that's enough, it's better than nothing. I will then continue to say to the Little Gray, the Little Gray has come quickly to thank senior. The Little Gray will immediately squeak continuously on Changtao's shoulder to express its gratitude."
Tian Mang laughed out loud, and directly used the Spiritual Sense to transmit the cultivation Arts to the Little Gray's brain, and said: "This is something that is very easy to comprehend, slowly cultivate it, if you don't understand anything, go to the back of the mountain and find me, I will help you explain, then later on I will tell Changtao, does little brother have any interest in coming to my place for a while?"
Inside the stone house, there was a stone bed, a stone table, and four stone chairs. On the stone bed, there was a small stone cabinet, and inside the stone cabinet, there was more than ten small porcelain bottles. It should be the place where the pills were stored.
In Tian Mang's stone room, Tian Mang and Changtao were sitting on a stone bench. The Little Gray and the Little Python each coiled themselves on top of Changtao's shoulder, and Tian Mang said to Changtao: "I normally train here and rarely go out for a walk, which means my son will go out for a walk when he's free. I never thought that I would have to go to the front mountain today.
Changtao said: "Yes, I was cultivating quietly a while ago, but I just woke up today. I found out that the Little Gray was fighting with the little python, so I just came over to see you. It seems that according to what you said, this is heaven's will, haha …"
The Heavenly Python said, "Since this is heaven's will, as an elder, I will give it to you as a gift. Then, with a wave of my right hand, a small porcelain bottle flew out from the stone cabinet. The Heavenly Python caught the porcelain bottle and opened it to pour out three pills, and said to Chang Tao, 'This is a Spirit Gathering Pill, and it can help you absorb all the surrounding spiritual energy for your own use within a short period of time.
When Changtao saw "Spirit Gathering Pill", his brows twitched, because this pill released a dense amount of spirit energy, just like an essence of spirit energy, causing people to feel that this pill was different from the others. Changtao accepted the pill with both hands and said: "Thank you for the pill, Senior, by the way, where is Tong Xiang at under the cave?"
Tian Mang replied: "This below is a hole that is filled with spirit energy that my master discovered, but I do not know what is below, because before Master left for Lotus Mountain Range, he told me that you are not allowed to go down to look until you are at the Dragon-Subduing realm, and you can only absorb spirit energy from it."
The more Changtao thought about it, the stranger he felt. What exactly was down there, and he even had to be at least at the Dragon-Subduing Realm to go down there, could it be that there was a monster or treasure here? Since it was discovered by Master Tian Mang, then I don't need to care anymore.
Tian Mang asked Changtao: "Are you close to reaching the large success stage of the Primordial Spirit?"
Changtao replied, "Yes, but I feel like I'm just a little bit off. I just haven't reached it yet, maybe I haven't fully comprehended it yet."
Tian Mang said: "My current cultivation level is at the large success stage for Primordial Spirit, do you know? I've spent a total of twelve hundred years training to this point. How long have you spent training to this point? "
Changtao said, "When I first started cultivating, I was guided by my master. When I arrived at the Primordial Spirit stage, I had to slowly comprehend the cultivation of the heavens by myself. It's been sixteen years now, and I unknowingly came over."
Tian Mang was shocked when he heard it, and thought to himself, "What kind of strange talent is this?" In a short sixteen years, he has almost reached the large success stage of the Primordial Spirit.
Changtao said, "This junior does not dare to deceive senior. Junior has indeed cultivated for an entire sixteen years."
Tian Mang was still extremely shocked after receiving Changtao's confirmation. He thought to himself, "This child's future is limitless …"
"Changtao, you are one of the more talented people I have ever met." said. "You must cultivate well, and do not disappoint the talent that your parents have bestowed upon you.
Changtao said: "Senior, to be honest, this junior's biggest dream is to cultivate to the best of my abilities to save my father from the human world. This should be the reason and motivation why I am improving so quickly."
Tian Mang said: "Good job, you have spirit, as long as you have a goal, you will always walk towards it, as long as you have the confidence, you will definitely succeed, I support you, I hope that you can reach it soon."
Changtao said: "Senior, this junior would like to ask, other than the spiritual energy being purer in Black Wind Mountain, where else would the spiritual energy be purer?"
Tian Mang said: "There is a big snow mountain at the northernmost part of the continent," and people call it the "Snowfall Mountain" because it is always snowing and the snow on the mountain is never melted, and the spirit energy there is much purer than it is here, but cultivators like us are still able to deal with the environment there. Legend has it that there is an underground palace, and this palace has many good weapons and cultivation Arts left behind by a person who has already ascended their Immortal Realm.
Changtao said: "I don't care about any treasures, if I meet any that shows that it is heaven's will, I will just let nature take its course. I just want to find a place with purer spirit energy and peacefully cultivate, as well as an early realization of my dream.
Tian Mang said: "Then when do you plan to go to the Floating Snow Mountain?"
Changtao said: "When the Primordial Spirit has reached large success, I will be able to protect myself and my brothers. When I cultivate to the large success stage of Subduing Tiger, I will go to the Lotus Mountain Range to learn the remaining Arts, and I hope to ascend to the Immortal Realm as soon as possible."
Tian Mang said: "It's good to have a goal, but one shouldn't be too hasty. If one's cultivation were to go berserk, it would not be good. One must slowly cultivate step by step."
Changtao said: "En, I know. Oh, right, senior asked me something, why can I train in other races' Arts while I cultivate human beings? I was thinking about the Arts that you gave to the Little Gray, and I keep having the feeling that there was some sort of connection between these two Arts, but it's not very obvious, can you tell me why that is? "
Tian Mang said, "Are you saying that you can cultivate different Arts together? This is impossible! Even if they are all of the same race, it's impossible for them to be linked together. We can only use this Arts move and that Arts move.
We are not the same. If you continue to use your own Heavenly Dao to comprehend, if anything is wrong, you must immediately stop this method of training and do not let your cultivation go berserk! "
Changtao said: "Thank you senior for your guidance, this junior will remember, it is getting late, so I will be leaving with Little Gray now, I will come again to greet senior another day with Little Gray. Changtao turned his head and said to the little python, if you can't stay, then you will be looking for me and the Little Gray in the cave at the front mountain, okay?"
Changtao then continued to say: "Alright senior, Little Python, let's go, we'll meet again another day, so the Little Gray flew to Changtao's shoulder, Changtao brought along the Little Gray to fly back to their own residence."
After entering, Changtao told the Little Gray, you need to practice the Arts that Senior gave you properly, you can't be too greedy anymore, okay? I'm going to break through to the large success stage of the Primordial Spirit, I don't know how long it will take for me to wake up, so you better take care of my cultivation, when I reach the large success stage, I will bring you to that Floating Snow Mountain to train, during my time of closed door cultivation, if the little python comes, you can accompany him to play, you know that I'm in closed door cultivation right?
The Little Gray squeaked a few times in agreement, and just like that, the man and beast went back into closed door cultivation.
