The Spiritual Energy Revival Began in Zhangjiajie

21: Chapter 21 Kunlun SaintTwo hours later.

”Daoist, this is the Longevity Fist manual I wrote by hand. Please keep it safe!”

Ji Yebai handed the Longevity Fist manual in his hand to the young Daoist leading the way.

Similarly, he received five spirit beads from the young Daoist’s hands.

For the Longevity Fist, he clearly wrote down the practice methods and breathing techniques for each stage; however, since there is currently no Spiritual Qi, ordinary people would only be able to Cultivate it as a health-preserving boxing style.

”Layman, the Temple Master says you may go down the mountain now!”

After the young Daoist finished speaking, he took the papers and prepared to leave.

”Daoist, wait a moment!”

Ji Yebai suddenly spoke up at this moment.

”Hmm!?”

The young Daoist stopped, looking puzzled.

”I would like to ask, who was that elderly man just now?! Why are you all so respectful toward him!?”

Ji Yebai frowned slightly as he voiced his confusion.

He had been full of questions since a moment ago.

He had even searched his memories repeatedly but couldn’t think of any famous Daoist master from his previous life who matched the elderly man’s image.

”That is Senior Kunlun Saint!”

The young Daoist’s eyes sparkled with excitement, like a fan seeing their idol.

”Oh!?”

Ji Yebai pondered his memories of his previous life; there truly was no master named Kunlun Saint.

”I wonder, which School does this Senior Kunlun Saint come from!?”

Ji Yebai lowered his gaze and asked tentatively.

Asking this way would surely provoke the other party’s desire to answer.

”What do you mean ’which School’!”

The young Daoist looked at Ji Yebai with disdain and said proudly, ”Senior Kunlun Saint is a master of our Daoist tradition who lives in the Kunlun Mountains year-round. He is one of the Three Sages of Kunlun. You didn’t even know that!”

Having said that, the young Daoist didn’t even bother to continue speaking with Ji Yebai and turned to leave.

”Three Sages of Kunlun!?”

Ji Yebai was stunned.

He knew this title!

This was a very famous name.

He hadn’t heard it from others.

He had heard it from Bai Zhu in his previous life.

In his previous life.

Bai Zhu had expressed regret publicly more than once.

If the Senior Three Sages of Kunlun could have lived until the day the Spiritual Qi erupted, they surely could have pushed martial arts to new heights.

In his descriptions, he held the Three Sages of Kunlun in the highest esteem.

He even admired them somewhat.

At the time, it had even sparked a discussion.

Unfortunately, information regarding the Three Sages of Kunlun was extremely scarce.

Or rather, someone had protected it so well that no one else could find any relevant information.

There was even an endless debate over whether the Three Sages of Kunlun was one person or three.

”Is this the Three Sages of Kunlun!?”

Ji Yebai thought of the elderly man he had seen today, and his heart stirred slightly.

No wonder even the future Bai Zhu, who became a Xiantian Martial Artist, held the elderly man in such high regard.

To have actually reached the Great Perfection of Qi Sensing despite the absence of Spiritual Qi.

This was simply unimaginable.

For the human body to generate Internal Energy.

Three conditions must be met, and none can be missing.

Physical energy, spirit, and Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

When the three combine, they can transform and condense into Internal Energy.

And now.

Even without a trace of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, the elderly man had actually relied solely on physical energy and Mental Energy to force himself to the level of Great Perfection of Qi Sensing.

If there had been even a little Spiritual Qi, he would have likely already become a Martial Artist in the Internal Energy Realm.

”Sigh, are all Prodigies this terrifying!?”

Ji Yebai lamented inwardly.

To Cultivate to Great Perfection of Qi Sensing in a situation without Spiritual Qi.

The difficulty involved was terrifying just to think about.

If someone with this kind of Aptitude had been born in an environment with Spiritual Qi, they would likely be a peerless Genius rarely seen in a thousand years.

Reaching the Xiantian Realm would certainly have been a foregone conclusion.

With a sigh.

Ji Yebai focused his attention on the five spirit beads.

Ji Yebai had seen photos of the spirit beads after they had lost their mystical properties in his previous life.

Therefore, he could confirm that these were the real five elements spirit beads.

The five precious beads were not particularly transparent.

Instead, they looked like rounded, low-quality crystals.

According to what Bai Zhu said in his previous life, these five elements spirit beads were polished from crystals that had fallen from the heavens.

A strangely colored Meteoric Crystal was taken from different parts and polished into five-colored precious beads.

Furthermore, this Meteoric Crystal was essentially some kind of energy crystal.

”The five elements spirit beads—each one contains a massive amount of elemental energy!”

Ji Yebai looked at the precious beads in his hand, his eyes dazed, as he muttered to himself.

Now that he had the precious beads, he could verify the final secret technique optimized by thousands of netizens in the future.

And by utilizing the energy of the precious beads, he could embark on a path leading to the Innate stage.

”Whew!”

Ji Yebai exhaled.

He snapped back to his senses.

”Even if I possess the secret technique, I must verify it first!”

”Using Five Elements Energy to temper the five organs and create a Pseudo-Xiantian Precious Body—all of this is a hypothesis. Whether it can ultimately succeed remains to be seen!”

Ji Yebai suppressed his excitement and walked outside.

With this trip, he had already achieved his goal.

To be honest, it was easier than he had anticipated.

Thinking of this, he truly felt grateful to Senior Kunlun Saint.

If not for his arrival, it really wouldn’t have been this easy.

”It’s a pity the Senior’s life is about to wither, and he will soon pass away from old age!”

Ji Yebai shook his head regretfully.

In his perception, the Senior’s life aura was like a candle burning intensely.

Although his body still looked healthy, he was actually already at the end of his rope internally.

Life withers, and death comes naturally with age.

This is not something human power can change.

Even those so-called spiritual plants that can increase Lifespan do not simply add to a person’s life out of thin air.

Sigh!

Ji Yebai disappeared from the room.

...

The back mountain of Laojun Temple.

Inside the main hall.

At this time, more than a dozen elderly men with graying hair were sitting cross-legged on prayer mats.

These people were all dressed as Daoists.

There were also more than twenty young Daoists standing nearby.

Judging by their appearance, they were exactly the ones who had fought against Ji Yebai.

”Senior, your presence at my Laojun Temple truly brings us great honor! As for the matter of selecting a person, this Junior has already made arrangements. I will have the Senior examine them now!”

Daoist Taixu sat in the guest seat and spoke slowly to the elderly man in the main seat.

”This old man’s affairs have indeed caused you all a lot of trouble!”

Kunlun Saint’s aged voice rang out.

As soon as he finished speaking, the old Daoists sitting cross-legged below immediately cried out that they wouldn’t dare accept such words.

Following that, the formal martial arts demonstration began.

All the young Martial Artists took turns coming forward to perform several sets of sword techniques before Kunlun Saint and the many temple Elders.

Daoist Taixu checked Kunlun Saint’s expression from time to time.

Seeing that his expression showed appreciation every now and then, he finally exhaled slowly.

Until the last person’s demonstration ended.

”Their natural talent is quite good! Especially that boy!”

Kunlun Saint nodded slightly.

He was talking about none other than Bai Zhu.

”The Senior overpraises him!”

Taixu quickly replied, ”That Disciple is named Bai Zhu. His talent is acceptable, and under this Junior’s guidance, he can now be considered to have entered the Dao!”

Entering the Dao.

This means truly beginning to practice the principles of Daoism.

”Good, good. Then let it be him!”

Kunlun Saint rose slowly and then walked over to Bai Zhu. ”Little Disciple, this old man has three years of life remaining. Would you be willing to follow me and practice for these three years!?”

His voice was gentle and his attitude indifferent, not at all like someone who had just stated they only had three years left to live.

”This Junior is willing!”

Bai Zhu was overjoyed and immediately spoke without hesitation.

Kunlun Saint was an idol to those who practiced the Dao, and Bai Zhu was no exception.

Seeing this scene, Daoist Taixu looked ecstatic.

The other Elders were the same.

Kunlun Saint had already visited five Schools, wanting to choose a talented individual to leave his entire Legacy to.

Choosing someone from their own temple was a huge honor!

This was truly a gratifying matter!

For a moment, everyone was filled with joy.

Just then.

A young Disciple approached, holding several pages of paper in his hand.

Seeing the relaxed atmosphere.

He immediately walked up to Daoist Taixu.

”Temple Master, that Layman left this Longevity Fist manual and departed!”

”Oh!? He’s gone!?”

Daoist Taixu took the papers and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. ”It’s good that he’s gone, it’s good that he’s gone!”

Having said that, he turned his gaze to the fist manual in his hand.
