Chapter 8: Strengthening the Path of Cultivation
Tang Yi looked at the hexagram array and was taken aback. He knew it was the symbol of a knight, but he had no idea why he had such a mark. However, upon reflection, he realized that it might not be a bad thing for him. Having an additional path of cultivation would likely make him even stronger.
Tang Yi is ready to tell his parents that he can start practicing, but he plans to keep the secret of the inner alchemy and the hexagram formation hidden.
In the morning, Tang Yi still goes to the back mountain for a morning run, along with Tang Shaoyang. During the run, Tang Yi feels that his physical body has improved greatly since he started practicing. The training volume for the morning run now is much easier compared to before. Tang Shaoyang finds it strange that Tang Yi's speed and breathing are both steady, and he asks, "Yi'er, your body seems to have improved a lot today! What's going on?"
Tang Yixiao smiled and said to Tang Shaoyang, "Brother Shaoyang, Yier can now start cultivating! Yier successfully gathered Qi yesterday!"
Tang Shaoyang was initially shocked, then showed some excitement, but quickly showed a worried look. He then said, "Yier, you must not tell anyone about your ability to cultivate, do you understand?"
Tang Yi was a bit puzzled. Tang Yi thought that it should be a happy thing that she could cultivate, so why couldn't she talk about it?
Tang Shaoyang noticed Tang Yi's confusion and explained, "You may not be aware of the situation in the Tang family. Although the Tang family is indeed a harmonious powerful family, the struggle for power is also terrifying. There are only ten positions for elders and only one position for the patriarch. However, our generation has more than two hundred people, and everyone from different branches wants to compete for these eleven positions. Once the news of your ability to cultivate spreads, you will have the right to compete for one of these positions, whether you want to or not. In that case, regardless of whether you want to compete for this position or not, you will become one of the opponents! Although there are a few of us who genuinely have good relationships, they are in the minority. Once the competition for positions starts, there will be constant exclusion and battles!"
Hearing Tang Shaoyang's words, Tang Yi was shocked. He never expected that cultivation could mean that. Tang Yi nodded and said, "Brother Shaoyang, I will definitely not let anyone know!"
Tang Shaoyang nodded, and Tang Yi also realized that Tang Shaoyang was really good to him. Tang Yi was quite happy about it. The two continued their morning run. Although Tang Shaoyang didn't know how Tang Yi could actually cultivate through what method, he didn't want to ask too much. He was indeed full of love for this younger brother and didn't want to become one of his competitors. He was willing to protect his younger brother all the time. At this time, a familiar figure caught up with them at an extremely fast speed. Tang Shaoyang felt that this person's strength was not weak, and he was about to put on a combat stance. However, when he saw the person's face clearly, he smiled and said, "Shaozhen, my brother!"
Originally, it was Tang Shaozhen who followed along. Tang Shaozhen looked at Tang Shaoyang and said, "Shaoyang, Yier, I'll go jogging with you from now on!"
Tang Yi stopped and looked at Tang Shaozhen and said, "Okay! Second brother! Hehe, with the protection of second brother, I won't be afraid of any danger in the future!"
Tang Shaozhen looks a lot like Tang Hongjing. He also has a dignified and domineering appearance, full of masculinity. His eyebrows display a heroic and upright image, and his fair cheeks are quite handsome. With a high and straight nose, he has long and black hair, wearing a sporty short-sleeved shirt and shorts, giving off a youthful vibe. His clear eyes are also handsome. Tang Shaozhen has a high level of attractiveness and is already at the peak of pill formation at a young age. It's worth noting that Tang Zhongqian has also reached the peak of pill formation, but there is a three-year age gap between them. Tang Zhongqian already has a high level of talent, but it's unexpected that Tang Shaozhen's talent is even higher. However, Tang Zhongqian is busy with internal matters in the Tang Mansion every day, so he doesn't have much time for cultivation. Today, he also needs to deal with the matter of the minefield that Cheng Mansion compensated yesterday.
However, Tang Shaozhen did not take over any matters of the Tang family. He spent most of his time playing and practicing, much more carefree than Tang Zhongqian.
The three of them came to the back mountain of the Tang family together. This time, because Tang Yi could practice, they were able to move quickly, using only half the usual time or less.
As soon as she arrived at the back mountain, Tang Yi sat cross-legged and began to cultivate, taking advantage of this time difference. Spiritual energy flowed into Tang Yi's dantian, and Tang Shaozhen, watching her practice, was somewhat shocked. He then asked, "Yi'er, can you cultivate now?"
After all, he is her own brother. Tang Yi naturally believed that Tang Shaozhen would not harm her, so she nodded and said, "Yes, Shaozhen older brother, I spent a whole day yesterday trying to comprehend it, and I can finally cultivate now. I am currently at the initial stage of gathering spirit."
Tang Shaozhen nodded thoughtfully and said, "Could it be that Yi'er was beaten by that brat from the Cheng family yesterday? And now her Ren Tong Second Meridian is open? Hahaha!" Tang Shaozhen then laughed at her own words.
Tang Yi glared at Tang Shaozhen and said, "Second brother! Yesterday, I didn't suffer a big loss!!! After all, I am a member of the Tang family, not so trash!"
Tang Shaoyang and Tang Shaozhen both laughed, and then Tang Shaozhen's face changed and said, "Oh, Yi'er, I was just making a little joke! But principle, ah, except for us brothers and sisters, we can't let others know that you can cultivate!"
The words that Tang Shaozhen said later were similar to what Tang Shaoyang said, but Tang Yi did not interrupt Tang Shaozhen, but nodded repeatedly. Tang Shaozhen then smiled and looked at Tang Yi, saying, "That's great, Yi'er, now you can cultivate, and you will certainly achieve something in the future! I believe in you, Yi'er!"
Tang Yixiao nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you, brother. Yier will not let brother down!"
Tang Shaozhen patted Tang Yi's head and smiled, then Tang Yi began to concentrate on cultivation. Countless spiritual energy poured into his dantian, and he felt his dantian greedily absorbing this spiritual energy. The spiritual energy flowed from his dantian to his whole body, opening up the meridians in all four directions. This feeling was very comfortable. After about half an hour of cultivation, Tang Yi stood up and saw that his two brothers were also cultivating, so he didn't disturb them. However, Tang Shaoyang and Tang Shaozhen's cultivation was shallow, just to ensure that Tang Yi would not be disturbed during cultivation. Now that Tang Yi moved, the two brothers immediately stood up.
Tang Shaozhen looked at the clock and said, "It's getting late, it's 7:30, let's go back and have breakfast!"
Tang Yi nodded and followed his two brothers back home. They had their meal as soon as they arrived home, and this time they came back just in time, so the three of them sat at their own table to eat.
Tang Shaozhen did not rush to eat, but first came to Tang Hongjing's ear and said something. Tang Hongjing's eyes brightened, then looked at Tang Yi, nodded without speaking, and let Tang Shaozhen go eat first. After dinner, everyone else left, and Tang Shaozhen walked to Tang Yi's side and said, "Yi'er, wait for a moment, we will go to father together later!"
Tang Yi nodded and followed Tang Shaozhen to Tang Hongjing's study once most people had left. Tang Shaozhen looked at Tang Yi and said, "Yi'er, you can go in by yourself. Father wants to have a private chat with you."
Tang Yi nodded and said, "Okay!" Then she knocked on the door and heard Tang Hongjing say, "Come in!" Tang Yi walked in and closed the door behind her.
As Tang Yi entered, there was only Tang Hongjing sitting at the desk in the study. There were many documents waiting to be processed on the desk, all wrapped in folders. There were brushes and ballpoint pens on the desk.
Tang Hongjing looked up and saw Tang Yi approaching, smiling and saying, "Yi'er, I heard that you can cultivate now, is that true?"
Tang Yi smiled and nodded, then extended her hand, gathering the spiritual energy within her body into her palm. Tang Hongjing was surprised and exclaimed, "What? Now you can freely control your own spiritual energy?"
Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.
Tang Hongjing laughed heartily and said, "That's great! But don't let anyone else know about your ability to cultivate! Otherwise, I think Shaozhen should have told you!"
Tang Yi nodded and said, "Second brother has already told me about the seriousness of this matter, don't worry, father!"
Tang Hongjing nodded respectfully and said, "Now that you can cultivate and have already grasped spiritual energy, you should learn some techniques. Let me see your strength first. Spread out your spiritual energy and let me see the purity and applicability of your spiritual energy."
Tang Yi nodded and then followed Tang Hongjing's instructions, spreading his spiritual energy throughout his body. Tang Hongjing stretched out his hand and used his own spiritual energy to guide Tang Yi's. The joyful expression on Tang Hongjing's face became more and more apparent. Then Tang Hongjing stopped and said, "Okay, try to absorb this spiritual energy back!"
Tang Yi began to channel her luck, continuously absorbing these spiritual energies into her Dantian. Tang Hong respectfully said, "Very good, your spiritual energy is very pure, and it is already quite impressive. I have ten low-level martial arts suitable for you here. They are all eighth-grade inferior martial arts that you can learn now. Take a look and choose one or two to start cultivating."
Then ten books appeared in Tang Hongjing's hands, which were ancient books sewn with needles and threads, but they seemed to have been refurbished and looked quite good in terms of quality and color.
Tang Yishuang took the ten martial arts books with both hands and started reading. In the end, he chose two of them. One of them was "Thunder Fist", which could transform his own spiritual energy into the power of thunder and gather it in his fists. It was a powerful attacking technique with great attack power.
The second move is called "White Dragon Leg", which gathers spiritual energy in the legs, strengthening the attacks and greatly enhancing one's speed. This is the powerful aspect of this technique, where both speed and strength are improved.
Tang Hongjing looked at Tang Yi's choice of spiritual techniques and smiled, "Yier, these two choices of spiritual techniques are quite good, but they are both difficult to learn. However, I believe in your ability. Let me explain to you first. 'Thunder Fist' is a powerful attacking spiritual technique. You have to train your fists well, gather the power of thunder, and transform your spiritual energy into lightning. On the other hand, 'White Dragon Kick' is even more difficult. The path of cultivating 'White Dragon Kick' will be your longest cultivation journey. Both 'Thunder Fist' and 'White Dragon Kick' are middle-grade level eight spiritual techniques. Your cultivation path will start from these two spiritual techniques!"
Tang Yi nodded, knowing that this path of cultivation would definitely not be easy for him.
After Tang Hongjing finished giving a few instructions, he asked Tang Yi to leave. As soon as Tang Yi walked out of the study, he saw Tang Shaozhen waiting at the door.
Tang Yi spoke up, "Second Brother! Were you waiting for me?"
Tang Shaozhen smiled and nodded, "Yes! My good younger brother! Let's go, I'll take you to practice in the back mountain!"
Tang Yi nodded with a smile, and then followed Tang Shaozhen to the back mountain. Coming to the back mountain for cultivation can be considered a win-win situation. Firstly, it allows him to keep his cultivation secret locked away because the back mountain of the Tang family is very big and not easily discovered. Secondly, the spiritual energy in the back mountain of the Tang family is also very abundant, which will be helpful for Tang Yi's cultivation.
After arriving at the back mountain, Tang Shaozhen began to teach Tang Yixiu to cultivate.
