Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality

The next day.

The sky was just beginning to brighten; the full moon of last night had not yet completely set in, and a faint outline still lingered in the west.

Zhang Tiezhu, who was lying in bed, opened his sleepy eyes at this moment. He squinted at the faint light shining into the room through the window, quietly sat up, took out the clothes that were under the quilt and put them on. He glanced at his parents who were fast asleep on the other side, and tiptoed off the kang (a heated brick bed).

It snowed heavily last night, and he had already made plans with his friends to go outside and have a snowball fight as soon as it got light the next day.

Snowball fights are one of his favorite games. But because he can only play them at certain times each year, he got up early today, which is unusual for him, instead of staying in bed to sleep in.

He gently pushed open the door, and a gust of cold wind rushed in, making Zhang Tiezhu shiver. He quickly pulled his neck into his collar and stepped out of the room.

Outside, all was silent; the thick, white snowflakes seemed to have swallowed up all sound.

But in the courtyard that should have been covered in snow, an extremely unusual scene appeared.

Zhang Tiezhu tilted his head, looking at the crooked jujube tree in front of his house with surprise and astonishment.

The bare jujube tree branches, which should have been covered in snow, are now covered with lush green leaves and laden with bright red jujubes!

Zhang Tiezhu stared blankly for a while, then rubbed his eyes hard.

I must be dreaming because I'm not fully awake!

With the weather so cold and snowing so heavily, how could the jujube tree suddenly grow so many leaves and bear so many jujubes?

But when he opened his reddened eyes again and looked at the jujube tree, the leaves and jujubes on it had not disappeared; they were still hanging full on the tree.

At this moment, Zhang Tiezhu finally believed that what he was seeing was not an illusion, but real!

His jujube tree really did grow full of leaves and was laden with big jujubes in one spot!

As a boy just reaching the age of 18, this discovery filled Zhang Tiezhu with immense excitement. He instantly forgot his promise to have a snowball fight with his friends and immediately shouted at the top of his lungs into the house:

"Zhang Tiegen, Wu Cuihua, wake up! A fairy has come to our house!! Come out and see! The fairy has made our jujube tree bear lots and lots of jujubes!"

While shouting, Zhang Tiezhu opened the door and ran into the house, wanting to wake his parents as quickly as possible.

To his surprise, just as he lifted the heavy curtain and before he could even fully enter the room, he heard a loud "smack" and a rough, large hand slapped him mercilessly on the top of his head.

"You disrespectful brat, are you asking for a beating again?! How dare you call your father and mother by their full names?!"

Awakened by the noise, Zhang Tiegen sat up cursing and looked at Zhang Tiezhu on the ground, who was clutching his head and crying out in pain. He felt a surge of anger.

Wu Cuihua looked helplessly at Zhang Tiezhu, who was being lectured, and asked, "Tiezhu, what are you shouting about so early in the morning?"

Zhang Tiezhu pursed his lips and glanced at Zhang Tiegen, who was glaring at him angrily. Then he looked at Wu Cuihua and said excitedly, "Mother, a fairy has come to our house! The jujube tree in the yard is lush and green, and it's full of lots and lots of jujubes!"

"You're spouting nonsense first thing in the morning! I think you just want more big red dates to grow on your little head!"

While cursing, Zhang Tiegen raised his hand, ready to strike Zhang Tiezhu on the head again.

"Dad, you can't hit someone on the head! If you hit me again, you'll beat me into an idiot!" Zhang Tiezhu yelled as he dodged. "If you don't believe me, go out and see for yourselves! I'm telling the truth! Go out and see for yourselves!"

"Still arguing!"

Zhang Tiegen didn't believe a word Zhang Tiezhu said.

There's no such thing as a jujube tree bearing fruit in the dead of winter; that defies common sense! He felt that this brat was deliberately trying to annoy him and deserved to be taught a lesson!

Seeing that Zhang Tiegen was truly angry and about to get up, Wu Cuihua quickly stopped him and advised, "The child is still young, why are you arguing with him? Besides, how can you hit a child on New Year's Day?" She then urged Zhang Tiezhu, "Quickly apologize to your father!"

"I didn't say anything wrong!! Everything I said is true! Why won't you believe me!"

Zhang Tiezhu stomped his feet in anger, then looked at the window frame. With a determined heart, he bypassed Zhang Tiegen and Wu Cuihua, jumped onto the kang from the other side, rolled to the window, and pushed it open.

"See for yourselves!!"

"You little brat, you dare put your shoes on the kang (heated brick bed)! You've really gone too far! Even if the King of Heaven himself came, he couldn't stop me from beating you up today!!"

Just as Zhang Tiegen, gritting his teeth, was about to reach out and grab Zhang Tiezhu, Wu Cuihua, who was standing next to him, grabbed his arm.

"My dear husband, what Tiezhu said is true. Our jujube tree really, really is bearing jujubes!"

"What did you say?!"

Zhang Tiegen almost thought he had misheard. When he turned to look at Wu Cuihua, he saw that Wu Cuihua was craning her neck, staring wide-eyed out the window in shock.

Seeing his wife acting so strangely, Zhang Tiegen was taken aback. He then craned his neck and looked out the window. What he saw left him speechless.

Amidst the pristine white snow, the crooked jujube tree, lush and verdant, laden with large, red fruits, stood out so conspicuously!

What that little brat said is all true!

A deity has truly visited their home!

Aside from immortals, he couldn't think of anyone else who could possess such miraculous abilities!

The couple exchanged a glance, and without saying a word, immediately put on their clothes, got off the kang (heated brick bed), put on their shoes, and ran to the jujube tree.

Upon closer inspection, the two realized that each of the dates on the tree was about the size of an egg, and looked smooth, round, and very tempting.

Zhang Tiegen and Wu Cuihua both swallowed hard.

"Since it was bestowed by the immortals, there shouldn't be any problem if we try one, right?"

"I think it's fine. Since it was bestowed upon our family by the immortals, it must be for us to eat!"

After convincing themselves in a few words, the couple immediately had Zhang Tiegen, the tallest of them, reach out and pick two dates.

"Dad, pick one for me too! I found it first!"

Zhang Tiezhu looked up and jumped up and down behind him, shouting urgently.

Zhang Tiegen thought it made sense, so he picked another one.

The family of three excitedly picked up the bright red dates in their hands, looked at each other, and then took a bite together.

With a crisp "crack," the three of them felt an indescribable sweetness explode in their mouths, rushing straight to the top of their heads, making them feel elevated.

The three of them squinted their eyes in unison, savoring the subtle and magical sensation that the date brought them.

These aren't dates, they're practically celestial fruits!

Such delicious fresh fruit is probably something even the emperor might not be able to taste!

After finishing the entire jujube, the three of them looked completely satisfied.

A single jujube the size of an egg was enough to fill them up, and after eating it, all three of them felt refreshed and full of energy, and could only exclaim: "It is truly a gift from the gods!"

Following the principle of keeping wealth out of sight, the family of three, after a brief discussion, immediately took out a basket, picked all the dates off the tree, sealed them up, and hid them away.

Such a treasure should not be easily revealed to others!

But what they didn't know was that the same thing wasn't happening only in their household.

Throughout Qingyang Town, similar scenes were observed in every household that specifically cultivated flowers, plants, and trees.

Overnight, all flowers bloomed and all trees came back to life.

Such a magnificent scene, appearing amidst the vast expanse of snow, is nothing short of a miracle!

As a result, the story of the immortals bestowing blessings quickly spread throughout Qingyang Town and gained the approval of everyone.

Even those who don't usually believe in the existence of immortals have no choice but to accept it.

Such an incredible thing is something that no human could do. Who but an immortal could have such abilities?
