Zhang Mingtu's final harvest of this round slowly appeared on the Book of Life and Death.
The Martial Saint’s Key!
These four words are simple and clear, but I don’t know how many people these four words can affect. If spread in the building, they can affect the hearts of hundreds of millions of warriors.
Because I don’t know how many people want to become a martial saint, and every practitioner wants to reach this pinnacle.
But in every era, there are often only a few people who can reach this peak, and countless people fail before this threshold.
It can be said that this is the most touching part.
In the world, there are countless obstacles and constraints on family, friendship, love, identity, status, power, wealth, countless temptations, and countless difficulties that will bind people and prevent them from being free.
The real people recognized by the world as the most carefree and free-spirited people, who are not bound by heaven and earth, and who are not bound by laws, are the Martial Saints. They are also called the living true dragons.
Just like the supreme emperor, he can walk freely between heaven and earth.
There is nothing that can restrain them, perhaps the only thing that restrains them is life span.
What emerges from the Book of Life and Death now is how to break through to the Martial Saint, or the key points to break through to the Supreme Martial Saint.
"The key to martial arts lies in the unity of essence, energy and spirit. The three elements of essence, energy and spirit are ignited together. Fight with all your strength to break through the obstacles..."
Zhang Mingtu looked down carefully. Marrow cleansing and blood exchange were created by the ancestors of the human race in the past, imitating the method of carp leaping over the dragon gate, and the fish and dragon changing in all kinds of ways.
The ancestors of the human race felt that the human body was not strong enough and was a little weak, so they wanted to make changes.
He observed all things in the world and found that the most strange thing in the world was just a small carp.
After many hardships and pains, he underwent numerous transformations, and finally the fish jumped over the dragon gate, shed his mortal body, and became a true dragon.
It can be said that it is the most legendary and the most meaningful one.
Therefore, although not all the techniques created by the human race were derived from the Fish Leaping Dragon Gate, their essence has been retained. The nine transformations of marrow cleansing and blood exchange imitate the idea of Fish Leaping Dragon Gate.
But there is not one fish in a hundred that leaps over the dragon gate.
After the ninth level of marrow cleansing and blood exchange, he reached the pinnacle. He went one step further, crossed the dragon gate, and became a true dragon in the world from then on.
It can be said to be the most difficult level on the spiritual path.
I don’t know how many people were stopped in front of the door.
Zhang Mingtu looked at all the relevant passes in detail, remembered them all in his heart, and had a vague understanding.
It can be regarded as understanding why there is only one person who achieves martial arts.
Jing, Qi and Shen are the three treasures of a warrior. Every aspect must be carefully cultivated. Every day, the spirit must be cultivated, the muscles and bones must be strengthened, and the Qi must be refined.
Every step is taken with caution, even trepidation, trying their best to maintain the three treasures of energy, energy and spirit, and constantly cultivate and strengthen them.
But if you want to break through to the Martial Saint, you have to do the opposite.
When the Three Treasures of Essence, Qi, and God are accumulated to their peak, they are also ignited to serve as the basis for door-knocking.
Once it fails, the three treasures of energy, energy, and spirit will be severely damaged, ranging from serious damage to vitality to death on the spot.
After experiencing a failure, you may never have the chance to make a comeback again, which is the most dangerous level.
Moreover, this level of cultivation can be said to be the most important and secret part among all the sects.
No matter who you are, you will strictly guard against this method. After all, the most top sects and founders in the world are just living true dragons.
This can be said to be the core of the secret core among the top sects. Even though Daxia has the world's best martial arts, the martial arts can be freely selected by people from the six sects of Jin Yiwei and even officials.
There are countless top secrets.
But Zhang Mingtu can be sure that such a secret within a secret, breaking through the Martial Saint's method, will be hidden and hidden by people in Daxia, and it will never be spread easily.
After all, the other name of the Martial Saint is also called the Living True Dragon.
Today's Emperor, the Holy One, is also called the True Dragon. The controllers of Daxia absolutely do not want a living True Dragon outside of their control to appear.
The freedom of the Martial Saint robbed the rights of others, especially the rights of the supreme emperor of Daxia.
Zhang Mingtu carefully looked at the relevant breakthrough methods and memorized them firmly.
The Dharma is not very long, and the relevant essence is only a few hundred words short.
But this is a path that generations of top talents have trodden with their lives. Before the path is clear, it is unknown how many people at the peak level of marrow-cleansing and blood-transformation have died on this path.
It seems like a simple rule, but Zhang Mingtu knows that it contains the efforts of many predecessors.
Just like common sense in the Land of the Rising Sun, don't go out after dark.
It is also a law of life that was discovered little by little after countless people died.
"Phew, is that all?"
Zhang Mingtu let out a breath and held the knife in his left hand, undoubtedly making a knife dance.
The sword was gorgeous and smooth. After swiping it out, Zhang Mingtu was stunned for a moment.
His right hand had never been so nimble in the past, and his left hand suddenly became so smooth that he was a little unable to react. Then he suddenly thought of the self-deprecating evaluation of his future brother, the one-armed hero and the divine eagle Yang Guo.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh softly.
"What the future brother left to me is not only these magic scriptures, but also many painful experiences, as well as this kind of silent, ordinary changes that are even more valuable!"
With a sigh, Zhang Mingtu closed the book of life and death.
The cover of the book of life and death still shows the stormy sea, with the stormy waves crashing on the shore and rolling up thousands of piles of snow.
In that huge wave, a leaf in the boat is really like a leaf falling into the lake, small and insignificant.
The gentle movement of the wave can overturn the huge ship that can accommodate hundreds of people.
"The Land of the Rising Sun..."
Zhang Mingtu couldn't help but whisper, thinking about the experience of beings living in that magical country, like a country among demons, that felt like a world away for a moment.
Demons mix with humans on a large scale, and it is impossible to tell whether they are demons or humans.
The demons walk around the human world at will, hunting people who appear within the territory.
It's exactly like the Shiwanshan Mountain where Zhang Mingtu once stayed. All living things are a link in the ecological chain.
Demons will not hunt others endlessly and at will, but will exercise restraint and seem to be satisfied with food and clothing.
After all, this is their daily routine, they go out to hunt once or twice every day.
Demons are often more restrained than humans, and will not fish in the lake, but will hunt in a controlled manner.
Zhang Mingtu even had a very clear impression that in the Land of the Rising Sun, people with serious illness or old people would walk out of the house on their own initiative.
They will walk into the mountains and forests in the dark night and into the heavy shadows.
In the dark night, there is no shelter or relevant rules. There is only one way to go into the shadows and into the mountains and forests.
"Such a twisted and strange world."
…
"General Zhang Qi seems to be in a low mood."
Rui Hai picked up a white piece and placed it on the chessboard. He looked at Zhang Mingtu opposite who was deep in thought with a smile. He picked up the tea cup in front of him with his left hand and took a sip.
At this moment, they were on a large ship, which carried Rui Hai's family, a bunch of crew members, and cargo.
The group of people were walking along the river road, heading directly to Jiujiang County.
After all, the most developed area in the south of the Yangtze River is river water transportation.
Water transportation is not only cheap and convenient, but also saves time and effort.
When traveling in Jiangnan, basically everyone chooses to travel by water.
Zhang Mingtu picked up a black stone and placed it on the chessboard without thinking. When he saw Rui Hai frowning and lost in thought, he spoke softly.
"After all, I'm still young, so I'm not used to leaving home for the first time, and I don't know how it would be if my parents were at home."
When Rui Hai heard this, he was slightly startled. Then he remembered that although the person in front of him was very experienced and handled all kinds of things extremely smoothly, judging from the relevant information given by Jin Yiwei, this person was only seventeen years old.
Not as good as the crown
No matter how you look at it, the person in front of you is a young man.
Thinking of this, Rui Hai felt a little guilty. In the past, he had worked with Zhang Mingtu, and Zhang Mingtu was more skillful than those old officials.
Especially when it comes to investigating accurate information related to household registration, he is so skilled that he can't be more skilled. Rui Hai is amazed by many actions. Even if he did it, he couldn't do it better.
He was also impressed by the relevant governance experience he presented, the strong support for his property inventory, and his understanding of the suffering life of the common people.
As a result, he had always overlooked one thing: the person in front of him was still a child in terms of age.
Zhang Mingtu didn't see the flash of guilt on Rui Hai's face. He still lowered his head, his eyes seemed to be staring at the chessboard in front of him, but in fact his eyes were blank, thinking about things related to Jiujiang County.
"The problems in Jiujiang County are not big, but with Ruihai's sophisticated methods, there shouldn't be much trouble in dealing with the local problems."
Zhang Mingtu had great confidence in Rui Hai, not because he was blindly confident, but because Rui Hai had become a frontier official and was able to govern a state or even a territory.
In addition, Ruihai, who governs a state and a territory, is still known throughout the world for his honesty and integrity.
This is not something that can be done simply.
Judging from the general environment of this era, it is difficult for honest and upright people to integrate into the mainstream. Since they do not join the mainstream, it will be difficult for them to ascend to a higher stage.
However, under various constraints, Ruihai's position became higher and higher, and finally he even wrote a book about the emperor's faults, becoming famous all over the world.
For a person like Rui Hai, who has a clear bottom line in his mind and a very clever way of doing things, Zhang Mingtu is not afraid of any big problems happening to Rui Hai.
He was thinking more about how to deal with Xuedao Hongji and how to deal with issues related to Jiujiang County and its region.
Thinking about Zhang Mingtu, he couldn't help but think of the two women who were killed by him in the Jianyi Underground River Demon Incident.
At that time, he got a lot of related letters, as well as small code books and the like, but because he didn't know the language of the Land of the Rising Sun, he just forcibly copied a copy of those symbolic letters.
Now I am thinking about it in my mind and comparing it with the related texts about the Land of the Rising Sun. I have gained some results, but not much.
"It is not entirely written in the language of the Land of the Rising Sun. There are many rewritings. It is indeed the most elite group of people in the Land of the Rising Sun..."
Zhang Mingtu sighed silently.
The Country of the Rising Sun maintains exchanges with Daxia all year round. Of course, the more important thing is that there is no large-scale exchange between private and official people, and the storm at sea hinders this.
Even so, there are not a few people among the people who know the writing of the Land of the Rising Sun, especially in the southeastern coastal area, where Japanese pirates are prevalent and there are also many people doing business. If there is interest, there will be relevant people to learn from it.
After all, with 300% profit, capital dares to trample on everything.
But now it is just a simple matter of learning a foreign language, and many people have mastered it.
The Land of the Rising Sun wants everything it sets its sights on, and will buy it in large quantities.
In the southeastern coastal area, there are many people who specialize in translation. Of course, most of them are people with relatively low status who learn it. Even many businessmen in the Land of the Rising Sun can learn to speak fluently themselves.
Daxia Mandarin.
With such a foundation, spies in the Land of the Rising Sun will certainly not communicate directly in their own country's language.
When they talk in private, they may use the language of the Land of the Rising Sun, but formal correspondence and intelligence communication will never be that simple. There will definitely be a code book or something else.
"If you want to crack the relevant codebooks directly from the language, it is still too simple."
Zhang Mingtu shook his head and continued to play chess with Rui Hai while chatting.
So when I was passing the time, related thoughts were still running through my mind.
"Solve things one by one. If there is a problem here, turn to the other side and deal with Blood Sword Hong Ji first."
Thinking of Blood Sword Hong Ji, Zhang Mingtu felt a coldness in his right arm for no reason.
Suddenly, the brilliant bloody sword light came to mind again.
"If I hadn't remembered, Xuedao Hongji should have been on the river during this time, and he should have gone to Yaodu or Bashan."
At this moment, on the merchant ship of another caravan that was also slipping down, a middle-aged man in a blue robe stood on the bow of the ship, admiring the scenery on both sides of the river, and inadvertently glanced at Zhang Mingtu's side.
One glance.
While Zhang Mingtu was thinking, the sound of sailors on the ships passing by made him look sideways.
At this glance, Zhang Mingtu's expression remained unchanged and he looked back without any strangeness.
As for the man standing on the deck at the bow of the ship opposite, he didn't notice anything strange and glanced around him calmly.
He was standing on the bow of the boat in a robe, and the breeze was blowing his hair and robes. His tall and straight posture, coupled with his aura of a noble man from a noble family, was quite attractive, but his appearance was mediocre.
It makes people feel a little regretful.
"how?"
The others didn't feel anything strange. Rui Hai was observant and vaguely noticed that something was wrong with Zhang Mingtu. At least he was distracted while playing chess, and his move this time was not as good as before.
He raised his head and looked around, but he didn't notice anything strange. When he saw the tall man standing on the other ship who looked like a noble man from an aristocratic family, he gave a slight compliment.
"It does have some temperament."
Zhang Mingtu lowered his head and said nothing, with only a hint of coldness showing in his eyes. The person standing on the bow of the boat was none other than Hong Ji, whom he longed for in his heart.
