Chapter 9 Six Paths of Tianmen

"Are there really immortal cultivators in the world?" Zhao Mu asked.

     "Yes, it is said that there were immortal cultivators in the land where the Jin Dynasty was located tens of thousands of years ago. These are all recorded in historical records."

     "Until five thousand years ago, there seemed to have been a great war among the immortal cultivators. Since then, the immortal way has declined, and the martial way has gradually become more popular."

     "It is said that martial arts training at that time, on top of the innate realm, there were three major realms: Grandmaster, Martial Saint and Heavenly Man."

     "It's a pity that martial arts has gradually declined over thousands of years. In today's Jin Dynasty, even innate masters are rare in the imperial court."

     Hua Xinzi was very sad.

     Zhao Mu was a little excited when he heard it.

     The immortality is extinct?

     The decline of martial arts?

     It doesn't matter, I have endless life and plenty of time to pursue.

     As long as you can be sure that there really were immortal cultivators in the world, then I believe that one day you will be able to find that path.

     Zhao Mu stood up and said, "Tell me where you hide your things. When I get them back, I will naturally give you what you want."

     "good!"

     Hua Xinzi was very straightforward: "The things are hidden underground in a Zen room in Shanquan Temple. The slave family will draw a picture to point out the specific location. Please keep your promise."

     After saying that, she walked to the desk, picked up a pen and drew a sketch.

     "Don't worry, I always keep my promises to beautiful women."

     Zhao Mu smiled, took the picture and left.

     "Am I pretty?"

     Hua Xinzi touched her cheek and cursed secretly: "If she is really beautiful, why didn't you come back to me for two years after the last transaction?"

     …

     Shanquan Temple is located within the capital.

     It was not a martial arts sect, just an ordinary temple. During the day, pilgrims often came to offer incense, but it was very quiet at night.

     Zhao Mu secretly sneaked into Shanquan Temple and spread the Shravaka Gu to avoid the visiting monks in the temple.

     After a while, he found the Zen room indicated on Hua Xinzi's picture.

     The Zen room was quiet, with no pilgrims staying overnight.

     Zhao Mu took out the prepared tools and quickly dug up the floor of the Zen room, revealing a knee-high black wooden box.

     He opened the box and saw a pile of jade jewelry inside, each of which was priceless.

     In addition to jade jewelry, there are several bottles of elixirs and three books in the box.

     The elixirs should be used to improve cultivation, and their value is estimated to be higher than those jade jewelry.

     After all, this kind of thing is different from ordinary pills and is quite difficult to refine.

     In the Great Jin Dynasty, only the top sects of the world and the families of high-ranking officials and powerful families had the strength to refine it, and the number was not large.

     Zhao Mu put the elixir aside and picked up the three books.

     One of the books is called "Water Contains All Things", which is exactly the inner strength and mental method that Hua Xinzi originally taught.

     The other book is, of course, "The Medicine King's Codex".

     Zhao Mu flipped through it and found that there were indeed many prescriptions for changing qualifications and improving cultivation.

     These things are simply priceless treasures for warriors.

     Any sect that obtains it can cultivate a large number of masters in the shortest time and dominate the world.

     It's no wonder that there were so many people competing for the "Medicine King's Codex".

     Putting down the "Medicine King's Code", Zhao Mu picked up the last book, with four words written on it: The Six Paths of the Heavenly Gate.

     Hua Xinzi has never mentioned this book, and obviously does not think it is valuable at all.

     But when Zhao Mu opened it and took a look, his face became more solemn.

     The content of this book completely shocked him.

     "The Six Paths of the Heavenly Gate" is an enigmatic, yet very tasteless internal skill and mental method.

     I say profound because this is actually a technique that can lead directly to the path of immortality.

     Hua Xinzi once said that today's martial arts training is divided into third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, acquired extreme realm and innate.

     Hundreds and thousands of years ago, martial arts had even more powerful realms, namely the Grandmaster, the Martial Saint, and the most powerful Heavenly and Human Realm.

     The so-called six heavenly gates mean that there are six mysterious heavenly gates in the human body, namely the hand gate, the foot gate, the body gate, the life gate, the heart gate, and the final gate of heaven.

     According to the description in the book, as long as a warrior opens the first door, he can become a second-rate warrior, open the second door to become a first-rate warrior, open the third body door to be innate, the fourth life door to be a master, and the fifth heart door to be a master. Martial Saint, the sixth gate of heaven is the realm of heaven and man.

     What's more important is that this technique can continuously transform the practitioner's physique during the practice process.

     If someone can open the Sixth Heavenly Gate, they can even breed immortal roots in their body.

     The so-called immortal root is a necessary condition for practicing the immortal way.

     There are so many people in the world, but those who are born with spiritual roots are rare and extremely rare among millions of people.

     And "Six Paths of Heavenly Gate" can actually give birth to immortal roots, which shows its profoundness.

     But on the other hand, this technique is also very useless, because its practice actually requires time.

     According to the description of the technique, it takes five years to open the first door.

     After that, the second foot door lasts twenty years, the third body door sixty years, the fourth life door one hundred and thirty years, and the fifth heart door two hundred and thirty years.

     As for the final sixth gate of heaven, it takes four hundred years of cultivation to open it.

     Except for immortal cultivators, who in this world can live to be four hundred years old?

     Therefore, to the world, "Tianmen Six Paths" is of absolutely no value. No wonder Hua Xinzi didn't mention it.

     But others can't practice it, but Zhang Xuancheng can.

     His greatest advantage is his endless lifespan.

     What's more, this technique can actually change his training qualifications, as if it was specially created for him.

     The only problem now is to determine the authenticity of "Six Paths of Heavenly Gate".

     At least you need to know the origin of the exercises and not be made up by charlatans.

     Thinking of this, Zhao Mu immediately leveled the floor of the Zen room and left quickly.

     Jiaofang Division.

     In the darkness, Zhao Mu walked into Hua Xinzi's room again.

     "You're back?"

     When Hua Xinzi heard the noise, he immediately got up and got out of bed: "How's it going? Did you get the things?"

     Zhao Mu put the box on the table: "I got it, you gave me a surprise this time."

     "Really? The complete version of "The Medicine King's Code" is indeed of inestimable value. Hehe, you can give me two more masterpieces this time."

     Hua Xinzi smiled charmingly.

     But little did he know that the "surprise" Zhao Mu was referring to was not the "Medicine King's Code".

     At this time, Zhao Mu opened the box and took out "Six Paths of Heavenly Sect": "Can you tell me about this technique?"

     "Six Paths of Heavenly Gate?"

     Hua Xinzi took the book in surprise: "Why are you interested in it? This technique is just a legend. Almost no one has successfully practiced it since ancient times."

     "Almost?" Zhao Mu narrowed his eyes slightly: "You mean, someone has succeeded?"

     "Uh... there should be one."

     Hua Xinzi explained: "It is said that hundreds of years ago, an immortal cultivator came to the Jin Dynasty and accepted an apprentice who had no immortal roots."

     "In order to allow his apprentice to practice the immortal way, the immortal cultivator worked hard to finally create the "Six Paths of Heavenly Sect" and also found a large number of heavenly materials and earthly treasures for his apprentice that can increase his life span."

     "It is said that since the creation of the Six Paths of Heaven, only the apprentice of that immortal cultivator has ever succeeded in practicing it. After that, no one has succeeded."

     "After all, treasures that can increase life span are not something that warriors can find in large quantities."

     …
