Ordinary people can also be extraordinary

The three of them went back after dinner. Zhang Chen returned to his room and lay on the bed, recalling what happened today. Whether it was the second prince or the errand boy, they were respectful to them because of Wang Dong's qualifications, which made Zhang Chen feel deeply moved.

After a few days, more and more people started living in the nearby rooms. Everyone got to know each other and had some basic understanding of Qingyu Gate.

Finally it was the end of the month. That morning, a bell rang above the room where the newlyweds lived, followed by a majestic voice.

"All new disciples must gather at Chaoyang Hall."

Zhang Chen and his companions hurried towards Chaoyang Hall. The pedestrians on the road were in a hurry. It seemed that there were many new disciples this time. When they arrived at Chaoyang Hall, many disciples had already lined up in the square. Zhang Chen and his companions also selected a team of people to line up. After about a quarter of an hour, everyone was there. Everyone was bustling and whispering.

Qin Qiang stood on the high platform in the hall, wearing a blue Taoist robe, looking intimidating without even being angry.

"Quiet!" Suddenly a roar echoed in everyone's ears, and the scene became silent.

"My name is Qin Qiang. I am in charge of your initiation as a new disciple. I am here to preside over the initiation ceremony under the order of the sect. First of all, on behalf of the sect, I welcome everyone present to join our Qingyu Sect. Our Qingyu Sect was founded by the Qingyu Patriarch a thousand years ago and has been around for a thousand years."

"The purpose of our Qingyu Sect is to cultivate elites. Those with high talents and fast cultivation will have more resources. Of course, our sect also takes care of and encourages those with poor talents and slow cultivation. Talent is not everything, so if you want to go a long way on the road of cultivation, you have to work harder."

"Some of you may become the backbone of the sect, while others may quit halfway. The path of the great way is to make the world a common place. Since you have chosen this path to heaven, be prepared to withstand the storms along the way."

"Everyone, get a jade pendant now and go to the front to input your information. Then the jade pendant will record everything about you. You will need it in many places when you enter the sect. Someone will teach you how to use it."

Everyone received the jade pendants and walked forward. Because there were many newcomers, the sect arranged ten foundation-building disciples to give the newcomers admission information.

These people just waved their hands and the jade pendant came into their hands. Then they drew a drop of their own blood and integrated it into the jade pendant using a secret method. From then on, the jade pendant had their own aura, because the jade pendant was specially refined and had a small space inside, where information could be engraved using a special method.

"Please keep the jade pendant safe. It will be a symbol of your identity in the future and can be used in many places." The young man in charge of entering information said to everyone.

Zhang Chen held the jade pendant in his hand and felt a familiar breath on it. He put the jade pendant on his forehead and suddenly a picture appeared in his mind. It showed a three-dimensional portrait of Zhang Chen, with a note next to it. Name: Zhang Chen, age: 1054, born in Daqing, Youshui County, founded in the Qing Dynasty, Yumen, joined on July , ...

"It's amazing." Zhang Chen murmured to himself.

Everyone recorded the information and returned to their original place.

"Now everyone line up and come up one by one. The uncle-skills present will select the appropriate exercises for you. The results of one month's practice will be related to your future." Qin Qiang said to everyone while standing in front of the hall.

People lined up in front of a dozen young men. When the first person went up, a stream of spiritual power popped out from the young man's finger and entered his body. After a few breaths, "earth spiritual power is absorbed the fastest, which means that the earth spiritual power attribute is most suitable for you." Go to the Kung Fu Pavilion to receive the earth-attributed Qi Condensation Kung Fu.

Next!

"Water attribute spiritual energy is absorbed the fastest." Go to the Kung Fu Pavilion to obtain the water attribute Qi Condensation Kung Fu.

next

……

The crowd slowly moved and finally reached Zhang Chen. The uncle glanced at him and said nothing more. "Relax your body and mind and feel it quietly." After that, a stream of spiritual power shot into Zhang Chen's body.

"Well, the absorption of spiritual energy is the same?"

"Go to the Kung Fu Pavilion and choose a Qi Condensation Kung Fu with all attributes, and give me the jade pendant." The young man looked at Zhang Chen deeply.

Although Zhang Chen can also practice single-attribute techniques, he absorbs all five types of spiritual energy at the same speed, so he absorbs all five together. This way, he can absorb more spiritual energy.

It’s like Wang Dong can absorb 100 gold-attribute spiritual energy in one hour, but when he absorbs five kinds of spiritual energy together, he can only absorb 60.

Zhang Chen, however, was just the opposite. If he only absorbed a single type of spiritual energy, he could only absorb ten in an hour, but if he absorbed all five types together, he could absorb fifteen.

Zhang Chen hurriedly handed over the jade pendant. The uncle took the jade pendant, input a message, and returned it to Zhang Chen.

Next,

After hearing this, Zhang Chen immediately stepped aside and came to the Kung Fu Pavilion as instructed. At this time, there were many people queuing up in the Kung Fu Pavilion to receive Kung Fu, so Zhang Chen also quietly lined up.

"Take out your jade pendant." The uncle who guards the Gongfa Pavilion said to Zhang Chen.

Zhang Chen immediately took out the jade pendant and handed it over. The uncle who was guarding the martial arts pavilion frowned after using his spiritual power to investigate.

"All-attribute skills?"

Without thinking too much, he immediately took out a jade slip and engraved the technique into it. Then he handed it to Zhang Chen and told him: "The technique must not be passed on to others, otherwise you will be severely punished by the Law Enforcement Hall."

Zhang Chen nodded repeatedly.

Everyone received the skills, and many people couldn't wait to read them.

"Everyone, please pay attention. Now I will explain to you how to practice." A middle-aged man came out and said to everyone.

"The so-called Qi Condensation is to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, absorb it into the body, enter the meridians through the acupuncture points, and flow into the Dantian through the circulation of the meridians. When the first wisp of spiritual energy enters the Dantian, it has reached the first level of Qi Condensation."

"When the spiritual energy in the body continues to accumulate and fills the Dantian, the Dantian is continuously compressed. When the spiritual energy transforms from gaseous to liquid, it is the foundation-building stage. You are still too far away from this." The middle-aged man continued to talk incessantly.

"Now let's talk about how to sense the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and absorb it into the body."

"Sit cross-legged, put your hands on your legs, keep calm, empty your mind, adjust your breathing, relax your body and mind, and concentrate." The middle-aged man began to explain.

Zhang Chen listened carefully, not daring to miss a single word.

Many people started to sit cross-legged and try it out while listening to the explanation.

After about an incense stick of time, the middle-aged man finished speaking. He spoke very carefully and also shared some of his own experiences and insights.

Zhang Chen remembered it very clearly, and it didn't seem very complicated. He was just not very familiar with some meridian points.

"Okay, now you can go back and practice on your own. Let me tell you one more thing, the sect will always reward the new disciples who have outstanding practice, so you must practice well." The middle-aged man said and left.

The scene was bustling with people discussing their views on cultivation.

Zhang Chen, Wang Dong and Bai Yunyun also walked back while discussing.

As soon as he returned to his residence, Zhang Chen took out the jade slip and put it on his forehead. Then, information about a technique appeared in Zhang Chen's mind. The technique was called the Qi Condensation Technique.

Zhang Chen sat cross-legged on the bed, and slowly adjusted his breathing according to the description of the exercise and today's explanation. The exercise said that one should slowly sense the spiritual energy in the air and breathe it into the body, allowing the spiritual energy to flow along specific meridians in the body, following a fixed route. After several cycles, the spiritual energy can be gathered in the Dantian.

But after Zhang Chen practiced for an hour, he didn't feel anything in his body. The exercises said that he would feel the flow of qi, numbness in the body's meridians, and a feeling of fullness in the lower abdomen, but none of these happened.

"Did I practice incorrectly? I have practiced several times, following the steps of the method completely. What went wrong?" Zhang Chen was completely confused.

"Forget it, I'll go see how Xiaodong and the others are doing in their training."
