Chapter 1981: Returning to Xiniu Hezhou

Zhang Xuezhou had never tried to practice the Western religion's 180,000 physical techniques after eating the meat of a spiritual beast.

But he has done a lot of similar things. For example, he used X446 medical treatment to promote the Bigu method, and used X432 medical treatment to promote the initial stage of mental strengthening.

Zhang Xuezhou is an expert at using external forces to rapidly advance spiritual practice.

The reason why he hadn't advanced the 108,000 acupoints of his physical body for a long time was simply because it was too difficult to practice. It would take a whole day to practice, and this whole day was insignificant to the progress of practice.

Even though Senior Brother Rulai was extremely powerful and displayed skills that were even stronger than those of Zhou Xin and others, Zhang Xuezhou never worked hard on this technique.

He was thinking about when he would encounter a spiritual energy storm or find Qin Meng's big spiritual jade, and then try to practice.

Of course, Zhang Xuezhou felt that even with the help of external objects, his progress in cultivation would most likely be limited, but he had never thought of becoming the second Senior Brother Tathagata, or of taking on the enemy like Zhou Xin.

For Zhang Xuezhou, he feels that as long as his ability is sufficient, that's enough.

For example, it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to kill him once they get close to him, or Zhang Xuezhou can escape after taking a beating. Zhang Xuezhou feels that this ability is enough.

He was extremely happy with the reward offered by Master Ran Deng in exchange for allowing him to preach again, and he also understood how to quickly improve the 108,000 acupoints of the physical body.

But Zhang Xuezhou had to guard against the possible malicious intentions of Master Ran Deng.

This requires him to act a little clumsy, but also a little normal. Even with the help of the spirit fish to nourish his body, he cannot practice too fast.

Zhang Xuezhou mentioned that he was negligent in practicing the 108,000 acupoints of the physical body, and he gave up after practicing for two days.

What he said was not wrong. Zhang Xuezhou had practiced twice in reality and had not practiced again, and the same was true for his current body.

If he had not met the Taoist Master Ran Deng by chance, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he would have no idea how long it would take him to progress in cultivating the 18,000 acupoints of the physical body.

"My friend, you are wrong again!"

Taoist Master Ran Deng must say that Zhang Xuezhou's practice performance is very average.

This does not mean that Zhang Xuezhou is completely incapable of practicing, but that Zhang Xuezhou took some detours during his practice. If he had not stopped him, Master Ran Deng felt that he would not even be able to enter the door.

It can be seen that Zhang Xuezhou really did not spend any time on the 108,000 acupoints of his physical body, and he almost gave up on it completely.

Zhang Xuezhou's condition satisfied the Taoist Master Ran Deng.

Firstly, they focused on practicing the poison avoidance technique, and secondly, Zhang Xuezhou had only practiced a little and had never even started.

Senior Brother Tathagata was almost pushing the poison avoidance technique to 24,000 acupoints, but the 1,000 acupoints in Zhang Xuezhou's physical body had not been activated at all.

Moreover, under the premise of using the spirit fish to nourish his body, Zhang Xuezhou's practice performance was not satisfactory.

This inevitably made Randeng sigh that the strength of the cultivators in the Eastern Land's Southern Continent was more dependent on the conditions of the "land". If the conditions were not so good, the cultivators in this land would not be able to be stronger than those in the Western Niu Hezhou.

"It's too difficult to practice for just one night to get started!"

From the sunset to the rising of the sun in the early morning, Zhang Xuezhou finally mastered the 108,000 orifices of his body.

He touched the shiny skin and flicked it, only to feel that his body was as if wrapped in a layer of cowhide, much stronger than before.

But Zhang Xuezhou kept complaining.

"My cousin has 1,000 holes a day, 10,000 holes in 10 days, and 180,000 holes in 100 days!"

Rong Tianding's speed is two points slower than Zhang Xuezhou's.

Zhang Xuezhou had a foundation in this area and had practiced many tens of thousands of techniques, so it was naturally extremely difficult for him to hide his abilities. Rong Tianding, on the other hand, had not really practiced enough, and he was so exhausted after flying all day that he could not make it through the night. He fell asleep in the middle of the night and did not wake up until the early morning.

He calculated Zhang Xuezhou's progress in practice, and pointed out that he should practice for three years.

This made the Taoist Master Ran Deng smile. It would be great if spiritual practice could be calculated this way.

Not to mention the increasing difficulty of practicing the myriad of acupoints, the constant improvement in the requirements for nourishing the physical body is beyond the endurance of ordinary people.

It took Brother Tathagata, who has such a talent, nearly a year of practice to push his Poison Avoidance Technique to a level close to 24,000 acupoints. During this year, Tathagata has swallowed a lot of things to nourish his body and poisons, and he eats almost every day. If he wants to push it further, the time required will double or even several times or even dozens of times.

The Taoist Master Ran Deng did not ask for the perfection of Tathagata's practice of the Poison Avoidance Technique, he only asked for Tathagata to be able to resist the poison of Brahma, and did not think of anything else. Tathagata's cultivation of the self-realm, combined with a powerful body and nearly 24,000 orifices of the Poison Avoidance Technique, was already an extremely powerful combination.

Taoist Master Ran Deng originally wanted to return to Hezhou, Xiniu, but he didn't expect to meet Zhang Xuezhou by chance.

At this time, he pushed Zhang Xuezhou to learn the art of physical body, and also hoped that Zhang Xuezhou would return the favor and push Tathagata's 24,000 acupoints of poison avoidance to the right place.

“My friend, what you said is right. As long as you are willing to endure hardships and have all kinds of good conditions for practice, it is not difficult to achieve perfection in a hundred days,” said the Taoist Master Ran Deng with a smile.

"That's what I said. It's great that the Taoist priest thinks so too," said Rong Tianding.

"I hope you can lend us a helping hand," said the Taoist Master Ran Deng, "and see if we can get Tathagata to push into the 24,000 orifices."

"My ability is limited, so I can only preach. How much you can correct, fellow Taoist Tathagata, depends on your own ability," said Zhang Xuezhou.

"It's natural!"

The Taoist Master Ran Deng nodded repeatedly, indicating that Tathagata could check for omissions and fill in the gaps.

He was busy all night long, just waiting for Zhang Xuezhou to say this.

For the Taoist Master Ran Deng, even though he was familiar with the 18,000 physical body techniques and the names of many of these acupoints were universal, he still had some omissions in his memory.

At this time, Zhang Xuezhou was preaching again, which made the Taoist Master Ran Deng prick up his ears.

On the one hand, he needed to listen to Zhang Xuezhou's explanation again and then push himself to remember it firmly. On the other hand, Taoist Ran Deng needed to guard against mistakes in Zhang Xuezhou's explanation. Once he found something different from the previous explanation, Taoist Ran Deng would definitely ask Zhang Xuezhou to stop.

"Little friend..."

"Fellow Daoist Randeng, you remembered it wrongly. This is what I have been reciting for several years. How can there be any mistakes? Don't worry. Listen to me and then you will know that you remembered it wrongly!"

……

When Zhang Xuezhou was preaching, the Taoist Master Ran Deng interrupted him three times.

But after three times, Master Ran Deng never spoke again.

Because he found that the content of Zhang Xuezhou's sermons was exactly the same as before, the more Zhang Xuezhou spoke, the more familiar it felt to him.

While adjusting the errors in his memory, Tathagata beside him also continued to make corrections after obtaining permission.

It was not until the scorching sun at noon that Zhang Xuezhou finished explaining the cultivation method of the 24,000 acupoints.

"If you two need anything else, you are welcome to come to Chang'an City to give lectures and exchange ideas!"

Zhang Xuezhou stood up very politely.

He was cautious to show that he still had value, and was not afraid that Master Ran Deng would change his mind or harbor ill will.

This is Zhang Xuezhou's instinct when facing an uncontrollable powerful cultivator.

His invitation obviously made Master Ran Deng very satisfied.

"Once the Tathagata's 24,000-orifice small circulation is stabilized, we will try the poison of Brahma in Islam. If the Tathagata is unable to resist, then please take good care of him!"

The Taoist Master Ran Deng also spoke very politely.

It's not that he didn't want to push Brother Tathagata to reach the cycle of 36,000 orifices, 48,000 orifices, etc., but Master Ran Deng lacked time and it was difficult to find better treasures.

The spiritual fish that was enough to motivate Zhang Xuezhou to practice the basic physical technique overnight had little effect on Senior Brother Tathagata, and it was even more difficult to find a highly poisonous creature to promote the poison avoidance technique.

At this moment, he was just hoping that Tathagata would quickly complete the poison avoidance spell, and then return to Xiniu Hezhou to check on the situation.

Even if nothing happened to the two leaders of the Western Church, the time for the century-long battle involving the major holy places was approaching.

If Tathagata could appear in such an occasion and win the first place, he would certainly be able to obtain important natural treasures to promote the improvement of his cultivation.

This is an important time window, and Master Ran Deng and others will obviously not miss it.
