Chapter 148 Assist Cangjie and help him achieve enlightenment and become a saint!
“To worship the Three Pure Ones? What an honor it is!”

After saying this, Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren were extremely excited, and their emotions surged like a raging tide.

The two of them stared at Cang Xuan with burning eyes, their eyes full of anticipation.

“To be honest, I was fortunate enough to have met Jade Ding Zhenren once before. Under his guidance, I went to Kunlun with Brother Chi Jingzi to join the Xuanmen sect!”

Taiyi Zhenren spoke frankly, without hiding anything in his words, showing his sincerity.

“Brother Cang Xuan, please be at ease. The two of us are determined to seek the truth and have no second thoughts, let alone the slightest treacherous thoughts!”

Chi Jingzi patted his chest hard to assure himself, his voice loud and powerful.

“I and Taiyi Zhenren have always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and are as free as idle clouds and wild cranes. We have never had any disputes with any forces, and will never do anything that goes against the Taoist sect.”

“I beg you to show me mercy, Senior Brother, and lead us to see the Three Pure Ones!”

Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren spoke in unison, their tone full of earnestness.

“Even if we are not favored by the saints and cannot be officially accepted into the sect, we are willing to live outside Kunlun Mountain.”

“Every day I look at the majesty of the Three Pure Ones from afar, practice with all my heart, and never change my original intention.”

Their eyes were full of desire and determination.

The Three Pure Ones are supreme; among all the heavenly saints, only they have reached the pinnacle of cultivation.

In addition, the Black Turtle of the North Sea also practiced in Kunlun and voluntarily joined the Xuanmen.

Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren have always dreamed of becoming disciples of Taoism.

Even if you are just a nominal disciple and do some trivial things, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Cang Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully examined the two, and then slowly said: “You two Taoist friends have pure Taoism hearts and deep foundations, and you are indeed predestined to be with Xuanmen.”

“However, now is not the time to enter Kunlun and meet the Three Pure Ones.”

“In addition to stopping the evildoers, I have another important task, which is to select disciples for the Three Pure Ones.”

“If you can pass the test I set, you can directly become a disciple of Xuanmen.”

When the two heard this, they froze in place, stunned.

Their minds are clear and their understanding is extraordinary.

In a moment, they had insight into some truths.

Cang Xuan’s status is definitely not something that an ordinary gatekeeper disciple can achieve.

“In fact, I and Master Taiyi should have realized this long ago!”

Chi Jingzi saw a vast desolate scene and stared at Cang Xuan, feeling filled with emotion.

“Brother Cang Xuan’s realm is unfathomable, and he was able to take out the Chaos Spirit Root. He also has the Chaos Black Qilin close to him. He must be the disciple of the Three Pure Ones!”

Taiyi Zhenren also had a gleam of hope in his eyes and was full of anticipation.

Immediately, Taiyi Zhenren bowed to Cang Xuan and said earnestly: “I beg Senior Brother Cang Xuan to grant me and Chi Jingzi a test. We must go all out and dare not slack off in the slightest!”

Seeing this, Cang Xuan slowly said: “I am the direct disciple of Master Sanqing, and also the second generation leader of Xuanmen.”

“You two have good comprehension, and you do have some affinity with Xuanmen.”

Cang Xuan nodded slightly, his eyes moving between Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren.

“However, only after going through the test can we step into Kunlun Mountain!”

“Besides being excited, why not first listen to what the test is?”

There was a barely perceptible hint of mockery at the corner of Cang Xuan’s mouth.

If you want to enter the mysterious world, you must first follow its rules. The system rewards are only one side, and the other side is to temper the character of the two.

The tests set by Cang Xuan are by no means random.

But it varies from person to person, and is aimed at tempering Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren.

If they are timid or their determination is not strong, even if they have extraordinary comprehension, they will have no chance to join the Taoist sect.

“Brother Cang Xuan, please rest assured.”

Taiyi Zhenren was full of confidence and his expression was firm. “Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire, we will not retreat even a single step!”

To become a Taoist monk is what Taiyi Zhenren has always dreamed of.

Hearing this, Cang Xuan raised his lips slightly and said, “Since you two Daoists are so brave, I will speak frankly.”

“The test is to go to the coast of the East China Sea, assist Cang Jie, and help him achieve enlightenment and become a saint!” As soon as the words fell, Chi Jingzi firmly stated: “What’s the difficulty?”

“We will do our best to live up to our senior brother’s high expectations.”

While Chi Jingzi was making an impassioned speech, Taiyi Zhenren shrank his neck, tugged at Chi Jingzi’s sleeve, and whispered, “Brother Daoist, listen to what you are saying.”

“Assist Cang Jie and help him attain sainthood?!”

“We’re afraid that even if we die a billion times, stick our butts up to the sky, wear out our lips, and use up all our magic power, we still can’t do it!”

He felt like crying but had no tears. He began to doubt his life and even thought Cang Xuan was teasing them on purpose.

However, after seeing Cang Xuan’s serious look, Taiyi Zhenren finally understood that if they wanted to join the Xuanmen, they must assist Cang Jie in achieving enlightenment and becoming a saint.

But with their level of cultivation, how could this be possible?

The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, and the Two Saints of the West are all top-notch innate gods, and are also disciples of Hongjun Daozu.

But they also need to find opportunities to become saints, and ultimately use various means to gain merit from the Way of Heaven, and then rely on the infinite creation of the Hongmeng purple energy, before they can prove their way and become saints.

From this we can see that achieving enlightenment and becoming a saint is as difficult as ascending to heaven!
In addition, the ancestor of the Styx is a living example.

In terms of background, the powerful ancestor of the Styx is strong enough.

He first followed the example of Nuwa and founded the Ashura clan. Then, following the Three Pure Ones and the Two Western Saints, he resolutely swore an oath to the Heaven and founded the Ashura religion.

However, in the end he still failed to attain the status of a Heavenly Saint.

This shows how difficult the path to sainthood is.

“Just us?”

Chi Jingzi realized it later and quickly covered his mouth with his hands, feeling extremely regretful.

He patted his chest and promised Cang Xuan without thinking it through, but now he is in an embarrassing situation.

Chi Jingzi’s face showed regret and he felt uneasy.

Seeing the embarrassment of the two, Cang Xuan responded calmly: “With Cang Jie’s luck, he will naturally achieve the status of a saint.”

“Besides, I don’t expect you to help him too much, just assist him wholeheartedly.”

“Let’s head to the East China Sea now!”

Cang Xuan continued, his voice steady and powerful. “Don’t worry, I am the disciple of the Three Pure Ones, the second generation leader of Xuanmen, so I will not tease you!”

After all, young people have not experienced many storms.

Cang Xuan looked at Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren calmly, and sighed in his heart.

Although they were nervous and unsure, they finally nodded vigorously.

Assisting Cangjie to attain enlightenment and become a saint is more difficult than ascending to heaven, but they have no choice.

“Thank you for your enlightenment, Senior Brother!”

Taiyi Zhenren said bitterly, with helplessness on his face.

“As the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more valuable the fish. Brother Chi Jingzi and I will definitely abide by our duties and help Senior Cang Jie solve his problems and help him achieve enlightenment and become a saint!”

“No matter how long it takes, we will live up to our brother’s high expectations.”

I feel bitter, but I still have to pretend to be strong.

The breeze blew gently, carrying away Taiyi Zhenren’s tears.

“Go!” Cang Xuan waved his hand with an indifferent expression.

I thought to myself: If I’m not good at it, I need to practice more!
Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren are still a little immature after all.

With their level of cultivation, they naturally couldn’t help Cangjie too much, but they had excellent comprehension and could give Cangjie some ideas at critical moments.

Of course, the most important thing is to sharpen one’s heart and enhance one’s understanding of the Tao.

“Senior Brother Cang Xuan, goodbye!”

Chi Jingzi and Taiyi Zhenren turned around and left Kunlun Mountain reluctantly.

Cang Xuan watched them go away, their figures gradually moving further away.

At this moment, the system’s voice suddenly sounded in Cang Xuan’s mind.
