Journey To Longevity

Zhang Shiping walked through the vestibule, and every two or three zhang in the courtyard, there was a lantern with moonstones and pearls, emitting a quiet light, he stepped on the light and walked all the way to the backyard.

There is a gentle breeze, and the green bamboos planted on the edge of the corridor are rustling, and the light and shadow are colorful.

The mansion is very quiet, as if there is no other person except Zhang Shiping. In this mansion inhabited by Daoist Jindan, in fact, there are not even half of the servants and maidservants there, only a few puppets purchased by Zhang Shiping, which are used to take care of some chores in the mansion, and feed and take care of him in the worm room. Phantom Locust, Blood Moon Scorpion Spider.

Over the years, many phantom locusts have advanced to the rank. Even Zhang Shiping has bred three phantom locusts that are one step away from Dan Jie, but only a few dozen or thirty phantom locusts have advanced to the rank over the years. That's all, the cultivation bases are all at the second-level low-grade, and there is not a single middle-grade one.

There is an explanation for this in the "Insect Classic", it is because of the limited natural aptitude of spirit insects. If it weren't for the two mutations of the Phantom Locust, both of which had something to do with the Blood Moon Scorpion Spider, Zhang Shiping would have thrown them away long ago, so why would he waste spirit stones to feed such inferior spirit insects.

Walking along the corridor, after a few turns, Zhang Shiping came to the quiet room in the backyard.

With a flick of his finger, the bright flames of more than a dozen downlights placed on the lamp stand in the room suddenly rose, and then Zhang Shiping untied the jade belt, took off his outer robe, and habitually put them all on the table not far from the group case. Mu Shi stepped forward, then reached out and pulled out the jade hairpin, took off the sapphire crown, and let his long hair hang down. Wearing only a plain white undershirt, he walked a few steps, put the jade crown in his hand on the wooden table, and then sat down cross-legged.

As for the array arranged outside the quiet room, it had been activated as early as when Zhang Shiping entered the backyard. With this formation that he bought with a lot of money, coupled with the restrictions outside the mansion, he believed that even a monk in the early Yuanying period would not be able to silently peep in the dark.

Afterwards, Zhang Shiping's spiritual consciousness was slightly applied, and he took out the bronze lamp from the jade belt on Mu Shi beside him, lit it and placed it in front of him.

This quiet room is not very big, it is over twenty steps long and seven or eight steps wide, which is just enough to set up a medium-sized spirit-gathering array. But even so, it was too deserted here. When Zhang Shiping first came to Nanxiao City, the Zhang family wanted to send some well-behaved and sensible young people over to help him with some chores, but he refused.

'Yuan Hengtai in the same age, Tianzhi will be Wentian', this is the genealogy of the Zhang family. Since no one in the 'Yuan' generation has built a foundation, the next generation from the 'Shi' is A few foundation-building monks with the word "Heng" are all very old. Among them, although Zhang Hengren has reached the late stage of foundation establishment, he is still far from consummation, and Zhang Shiping does not have any hope for him to form alchemy.

As for the boys of the 'Tian' generation, Zhang Shiping watched over a dozen of them grow up, and they are more affectionate. Among them, what surprised him the most was Zhang Tianya, a girl who was not the best in aptitude, nor the hardest in her cultivation, but she was the first one in her generation to build a foundation. After several years of experience as the head of the Zhang family, according to the agreement between the two, she resigned as the head of the family. After practicing in the family for a few years, she is now traveling abroad, looking for opportunities. As for Zhang Tianwu, after so many years of hard work, he finally succeeded in building a foundation.

In the past twenty years, among their peers, there are still five people who succeeded in building the foundation.

Among them was Zhang Tianhong, the child with dual spiritual roots who was sent to the inner sect by Zhang Shiping. With the support of both Xuanyuanzong and the Zhang family, his practice has been smooth sailing. He is just in his early forties, and he is already in the middle stage of foundation establishment. Although Zhang Shiping was still somewhat dissatisfied with it, he knew that he couldn't force it too much.

As for Zhang Tianyu, who disappeared while traveling, after so many years, there is still no news. Maybe apart from Zhang Shiping who occasionally thinks about it, people in the Zhang family may have forgotten that there is such a person.

And the clan members of the "Zhi" and "Bi" generations have gradually grown up. Before he knew it, Zhang Shiping had watched generation after generation of clan members be born, grow up, practice, and even die.

After years of hardship, I got used to this life and death after watching too much, it was just a common thing.

As for Lin Xier's apprentice, she has slackened a lot in her practice over the years. When Zhang Shiping saw her years ago, he scolded her severely. As a person with double spiritual root qualifications, she is in her early 100s, and her cultivation base has just advanced to the late stage of foundation establishment. How can she satisfy Zhang Shiping, who is a master.

After scolding her, Zhang Shiping looked at her husband Jin Siming next to her with a look of disgust. From Zhang Shiping's point of view, he was also somewhat wrong. It's just that Lin Xi'er admitted her mistake with a smile, and at the same time helped Zhang Shiping, the master, to breathe.

"Forget it, you're such an old man, you just have to think it over yourself." At that time Zhang Shiping said helplessly, telling the husband and wife not to hang around in front of him, out of sight and out of mind.

This apprentice is like a married daughter, it is really worrying. But this person has his own plan, since she doesn't want to be here, Zhang Shiping reluctantly can't come, so he can only let her go.

Thinking of his apprentice, Zhang Shiping shook his head, feeling a little helpless in his heart.

Since her husband and wife will come over tomorrow, then let's talk about it by myself, Zhang Shiping thought in his heart.

Although he said that he would not care about her anymore, but after all, he grew up from that little person day by day. After all, she is now over a hundred years old, but in Zhang Shiping's view, she is still a child.

After clearing his mind, Zhang Shiping stretched out his hand and took out another brocade box from the jade belt on Mu Shi. After laying it flat on the wooden case, he blew lightly. Just floated down.

With a sound of 'click', Zhang Shiping opened the lid, and the box contained small pieces of deep purple prisms the size of a cat's eye. Under the light of the copper lamp, the purple light was mixed with a little silver light, deep and psychedelic. Like the stars in the sky.

This is the Wanguangxingyinsha obtained from Huijiu's stomach. Zhang Shiping only sacrificed it initially when he was in Nanming City. Now that he has time to come back to Nanxiao City, Zhang Shiping will naturally continue to sacrifice and refine it until it is completely refined to the size of fine sand, which is the real silver sand of ten thousand lights.

And the magic weapon forged from this sand has the effect of isolation after being activated, which can protect the monk's mind to a certain extent, and it also has the effect of condensing fire and gathering inflammation. A few days ago, in Nanming City, Zhang Shiping recognized this rare star spirit sand based on these two points.

Zhang Shiping didn't intend to sell this Wanguangxingyinsha, he planned to refine it into his natal pagoda.

Zhang Shiping looked at the hundred or so star silver stones in the box, raised his two fingers together, pointed downwards, and said softly, "Qi".
