"Your wood spiritual roots have reached the highest grade? How is this possible!"

Meng Daluo widened his eyes, and said with surprise on his face: "

If you have three spiritual roots, and the wood spiritual root among them is of top grade, your talent for cultivation is no less than mine back then!

Do you really have such a talent?"

As he spoke, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes as he stared at Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Yes, I have this talent, and my training speed is very fast."

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the barbecue in front of him and said with a smile.

"That's not right. If you have three spiritual roots and your wood spiritual roots are of the best quality, at your age, you should be able to cultivate to the early ninth level of Qi Refining!"

Meng Daluo frowned slightly, fell into deep thought, and muttered to himself: "

Why is your realm so inconsistent with your talent?

How come you have only just reached the seventh level of Qi Refining?"

There was a look of doubt and confusion on his face.

"Zi! Zhi! Zhi!"

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the flames in front of him and heard a sizzling sound coming from the flames. The black wolf meat was burned golden by the flames and a rich aroma wafted into his nose.

Zhang Xiaoshan took a deep breath of the fragrance, an expression of great enjoyment appeared on his face, and he laughed: "

Haha, the roasted beast meat is ready, you can come and eat it now!"

As he spoke, Zhang Xiaoshan reached out and picked up the silver sword beside him, and forked out the roasted exotic beast meat in the flames.

Then he cut off a piece of golden roasted exotic beast meat and began to eat it in big mouthfuls.

“Boy, you have a good talent for cultivation, but judging from your age, you should be about sixteen or seventeen years old. How come you have only cultivated to the seventh level of Qi Refining?”

Seeing that Zhang Xiaoshan did not answer him, Meng Daluo couldn't help but curl his lips and said:

I guess you haven't practiced the immortal arts well since you were young. You are really wasting your talent for cultivation!"

"Senior Meng, you don't understand me."

Zhang Xiaoshan ate the barbecue in big mouthfuls and said with a slightly unhappy look:

I was born in a small village and had little contact with immortal arts since childhood, so I don’t know much about it.

It was not until eight months ago that I joined the Wang family of immortal cultivation in Fenglin Town to practice immortal arts.

From the second level of Qi Refining to the seventh level of Qi Refining, my speed of cultivation is indeed a bit slow, but there is nothing I can do about it.

After all, I came into contact with immortal arts too late."

As he spoke, his mouth was stuffed with barbecue, his cheeks were bulging, and he looked very funny.

"what?"

"You have only been formally practicing immortal techniques for eight months?"

"This shouldn't be possible, right?"

Meng Daluo opened his eyes wide, his face full of surprise, and spoke with disbelief in his voice.

After hesitating for a moment, he said again:

In eight months, you cultivated from the second level of Qi Refining to the seventh level of Qi Refining?

Is your cultivation speed so fast?

Back then, it took me three full years to cultivate from the second level of Qi Refining to the seventh level of Qi Refining. At that time, I was called a genius by everyone!"

At this point, Meng Daluo frowned, somewhat unconvinced by what Zhang Xiaoshan said.

Zhang Xiaoshan ate the barbecue with big mouthfuls, his face full of enjoyment, and from time to time he murmured, "Hmm, not bad, it smells really good."

While eating, he said to Meng Daluo:

Senior, would you like some?"

Meng Daluo looked at Zhang Xiaoshan's mouth full of oil, and the corners of his mouth and nose couldn't help twitching. He said unhappily:

Boy, can’t you see that I am just a remnant soul now?

Can I eat this?"

Then, he rolled his eyes at Zhang Xiaoshan and asked doubtfully, "Boy, you said that it only took you eight months to cultivate from the second level of Qi Refining to the seventh level of Qi Refining. Are you kidding me?"

"You are my senior, why would I deceive you? I am telling the truth!"

Zhang Xiaoshan turned his head and looked at Meng Daluo in the silver sword, smiled and said:

If you don’t believe it, when you have the chance, you can go to the Wang family in Fenglin Town and ask them and you will know.”

Meng Daluo was slightly surprised, his eyes rolled, and he said:

If it really took you only eight months to cultivate from the second level of Qi Refining to the seventh level of Qi Refining, then your talent is truly outstanding among the three types of spiritual roots!

That’s really great.”

As he spoke, he stared at Zhang Xiaoshan closely, as if he was admiring a beautiful flower, and then smiled and said:

Zhang Xiaoshan, you have such great talent, I will just accept you as my apprentice.

If you become my disciple, I believe that within ten years, you will definitely become a peak foundation-building expert.

By then, you will become a great monk, and my Meng family will prosper because of you!"

"Senior Meng, didn't I tell you before that without the consent of my master, that is, Taoist Shen, I will not take you as my master without his consent."

Zhang Xiaoshan was surprised when he heard what Meng Daluo said, and he said quickly:

Also, even if you want to take me in as your apprentice, from your tone, you want me to lead your Meng family to glory. Is this wrong?"

Zhang Xiaoshan was speechless at Meng Daluo's words.

"Xiaoshan, with your talent, you should have a better master."

Meng Daluo smiled and said:

When I was alive, I was a cultivator at the peak of the foundation-building stage. If you become my disciple, I believe that within ten years, you will be able to cultivate to the peak of the foundation-building stage.

As for leading my Meng family to prosperity, it is also an easy task for you. "

"Senior Meng, even if I can become a foundation-building cultivator one day, I should lead the village I live in to become a prosperous village. Why should I lead your family to prosperity?"

Zhang Xiaoshan glanced at Meng Daluo and said.

“Now that my Meng family has fallen to a third-rate family, this has something to do with me.

I don’t want the Meng family to fall like this!”

Meng Daluo sighed and said slowly:

If you are willing to take me as your master, with my guidance, you will definitely become a peak foundation-building expert.

By then, you will be considered a strong man in the entire Lingmu Sect.

With a strong person like you here, if you can support our Meng family a little, our Meng family will naturally be able to get rid of the situation of being a third-rate family."

As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and continued: "

Boy, whether you like it or not, from now on, you are my apprentice.

I will pass on to you everything I have learned throughout my life, bit by bit, according to your progress in cultivation.

I will supervise you to practice hard, and in this way, within ten years, you will be able to cultivate to the peak of the foundation-building stage.

By then, my Meng family will also be able to benefit from it and become a powerful immortal cultivation family."

When Zhang Xiaoshan heard this, he shook his head slightly, feeling a little helpless.

He himself did not agree to become the other party's apprentice, nor did he say that he would lead the Meng family to prosperity. What does this have to do with him?

He thought so in his mind but didn't say it out loud.
