Chapter 72: 71: Immortal Power, Qingsi, Meet the Master
“Who? Save me!!”
The Stubborn Stone Ancestor raised his huge head in surprise.
But I saw a hunchbacked, skinny old man in white clothes, with goat horns and a long snow-white beard standing under a pine tree about ten steps away.
“Who was I thinking? Turns out to be you, the little lamb spirit from the Mist Hidden Mountain. What? Do you think you are looking for trouble with me since I am in trouble today?” The smile on the face of the old ancestor Wanshi turned gloomy, and he said with a sinister smile.
“I dare not, I dare not; I just came to see you, old master.”
“When I’m in trouble, none of my old friends come to help me. Lord Antelope, if you help me out, we will be brothers. How about that?” Wanshi’s expression looked better and he even addressed him as “Lord Antelope” instead of “Little Lamb Spirit”.
“Ancestor, you have extraordinary powers. How dare an old man like you to approach you?” Mr. Lingjiao shook his head and waved his hands.
“Bah! Stop taking advantage of your age and seniority. When the old ancestor attained enlightenment, you, a little lamb, didn’t even know where to chew cow dung.” The old ancestor Wanshi cursed.
Lingjiao Gong is a sheep spirit who has been practicing in Wuyin Mountain for hundreds of years.
However, the stubborn old monster used to cast spells in Baiyun Rock when he had nothing to do. He would bring sheep from Wuyin Mountain thousands of miles away to barbecue and eat, and he caught many of the old sheep’s descendants.
Therefore, they became enemies.
He admitted that he couldn’t beat Ji Yuan.
But he was still able to defeat the wild monsters and evil ghosts of Taiyue Mountain with ease. Even when they were suppressed, his magical powers were not damaged at all, so he was not afraid.
“If you don’t want to save me, then get out of here!”
The stubborn stone complained loudly: “Make way for the good guys!”
Anyone who can come to save him is a good person.
Antelope Horned Man was not angry.
But the next words almost made Old Man Stubborn Stone so angry that he vomited blood.
“I am here to accompany the old ancestor. I am also here to help the Xuanwei Sect master keep an eye on the old ancestor and drive away the ‘good guy’ who wants to save the old ancestor.”
Antelope horn man stroked his beard and shook his head as he spoke.
When saying the word “good man”, one has to emphasize the tone.
“I still have 300 years to live. I have decided that when I die, I will be buried under the cliff, next to my ancestors.”
……
In the blink of an eye, several months have passed.
A huge mountain range extending from the southern foot of Taiyue Ridge to the boundless wilderness, about tens of millions of miles away from Taiyue.
In the wilderness, evil spirits rose into the sky and turned into colorful mist. Minotaur with bull heads and human bodies sometimes turned into giant bulls and ran in the wilderness, and sometimes turned into human bodies and stayed in the city.
In the misty clouds, a Dharma body of dozens of feet tall, emitting strange light, proudly stood in the temple on top of a thousand-foot-high peak on the plain.
The shrine is vast and boundless, and its name is [Chunjun]
The Green Fire Toad walked into the temple with extremely cautious steps, stepped on the white jade stairs, and looked at the huge Dharma body in the clouds.
“Hey? Green Fire Toad, where have you been and why have you changed into a human body?” A buzzing voice was heard.
The Jade Fire Toad looked in the direction of the voice, his face pale, and he kowtowed respectfully in haste: “Uncle Master Qingsi!”
The one who spoke was a burly man; he was about two meters tall, but his appearance was very scary.
He has a single horn on his forehead, bright eyes, rough skin on his head, black flesh hanging from his ears, bloodshot eyes like copper bells that contain divine power. He is dressed in a suit of Suzhao brocade and has a jade belt with a lion pattern on it around his waist. His hands are blue with scorched veins, and he seems to be able to bully the sky and the moon, and he is indescribably majestic.
If Ji Yuan were here and heard his voice, he would find it very familiar.
It was Qingsi, an old acquaintance from Wolong Ridge.
“I asked him to go to the Sixth Realm.” Before the Green Fire Toad could speak, not far behind him, the mist in the void condensed and transformed into a figure with indigo cheeks, the same strong figure, and a white robe.
A wisp of supreme immortal energy that transcends all calamities instantly covered the entire wilderness for millions of miles.
“It seems that you haven’t obtained the Kuiniu Treasure Scroll.” The indigo-faced figure’s voice became a little colder.
“Grandmaster! Grandmaster! I had already succeeded, but who knew that an old monster suddenly appeared from that place, unfathomable, holding the innate treasure, the Heaven-turning Seal. I was no match for him…”
The Green Fire Toad knelt on the ground with a look of fear on its face, and knocked its head on the ground, causing blood to ooze out.
He recounted everything that had happened, no matter how big or small.
He just silently described the realm of ‘Guangchengzi’ as ‘the ancient golden immortal’ Guangchengzi.
The Heaven-Flipping Seal also became an ‘innate treasure’.
Patriarch Bijiao said nothing.
Upon hearing this, Qing Si stretched out his fingers and calculated for a while, but could not find the basis. He looked at Patriarch Bi Jiao and asked, “Master, you attained the Tao in the ancient times, have you heard of this Heaven-Flipping Seal? And the name of Guang Chengzi of Kongtong Mountain?”
“That Heaven-Flipping Seal does have this treasure, which was just achieved two years ago; but it is not a magic weapon.” As Bi Ciao’s eyes opened and closed, he understood all the secrets and knew the whole story.
Any magic weapon accomplished in the world will be favored by the Great Dao and be infused with the rhythm of the Dao.
The founder of the Immortal Sect has proven that he is indestructible from all calamities and his body is in harmony with the Great Dao; whether this treasure is real or fake, this naturally cannot be hidden from Him.
The Jade Fire Toad trembled with fear, and said in a trembling voice: “It’s all…it’s all said by Guangchengzi, I…I would never dare to deceive the master…”
Patriarch Bijiao ignored him, and his eyes revealed infinite secrets: “As for Guangchengzi from Kongtong Mountain…”
Qing Si and Bi Huo Chan looked into the eyes of Patriarch Bi Jiao and both of them felt dizzy.
It was as if there was a loud bang in the head, and the consciousness was separated from the body, falling into the endless deep avenue.
The number of days is constantly changing, like a rolling river, in which the destinies of all lives rise and fall.
A Dharma body, billions of feet tall, stands above the rolling river, like a fish-watcher, observing every change.
The consciousness of Qing Si and Bi Huo Chan were caught in the palm of the Dharma body and floated upstream.
It’s like time and space are reversed before your eyes.
More than a year ago, all the images in the Tianwu secret realm appeared before our eyes.
There are figures of sword Taoists, barefoot Taoists, and Tai Chi masters.
However, when the scene passed by Tai Chi Zhenren, a huge hand suddenly stretched out from the long river of time and space, carrying a misty fairy air and descending, instantly obscuring it.
The ten thousand zhang Dharma body did not care and continued upstream.
Finally, the picture froze on the figure in hemp clothes in front of Tianwu’s mansion.
suddenly!
“Crack, crack, crack” all kinds of scenes shattered in an instant.
The scene in front of him changed, from the endless dark river to the temple in an instant.
“Heh…” The Green Fire Toad breathed rapidly. At that moment just now, his thoughts seemed to be frozen.
Even at the Qingsi level, he actually had some chest heaving and difficulty breathing.
They looked at Grandmaster Bi Jiao in surprise, only to find that Bi Jiao’s expression had darkened a little.
“Ancestor, what happened just now?” asked the Green Fire Toad in a low voice.
“That old guy Xuanwei Yujing has taken action.”
“I don’t know what’s wrong with that old man. He suddenly erased all the secrets.” Bi Jiao shook his head.
“Master, could it be that Guangchengzi was sent by the Xuanwei Sect? Are they also after the Kuiniu Treasure Scroll?” Qingsi guessed.
“It must be so; a few old ghosts in the six regions want to take advantage of the great catastrophe to refine a list of heroic spirits; they want to help hundreds of millions of disciples achieve immortality, which is ridiculous…” Patriarch Bijiao smiled inexplicably.
As he spoke, he took out a golden scroll about a foot long and handed it to Qingsi.
“The Kuiniu Treasure Scroll? This…” Qingsi was puzzled.
Wasn’t it said that the Kuiniu Treasure Scroll was snatched away by Guangchengzi?
“It’s useless with only half of it. You can use it to comprehend it; and by the way, go to the domain again; it would be best if you can get the remaining half back.” Bi Jiao stroked his beard and said.
“A few old ghosts of the human race want to refine the Xuanhuang Qi and lure out a person to fulfill their mission. This time you go, you can take the opportunity to snatch the Xuanhuang Qi from them!”
“But the last time I went to the domain to overcome a severe calamity, I alarmed many powerful people. This time…” Qing Si was a little hesitant.
“Even the slightest trace of Xuan Huang Dao Qi can be transformed into merit and greatly increase one’s enlightenment. If one obtains it completely, one can truly build an unrivaled foundation. One can also become a trend-setter in the great calamity, and have the hope of achieving immortality.”
“The Jade Fire Toad’s skills are too shallow after all. With your skills, even if those old ghosts take action, they may not be able to take you down, let alone those youngsters.”
“Proof of the truth!” Qingsi’s eyes sparkled.
“Okay, I will pack up and head to the domain.”
“No rush, there is still early. You can comprehend half of the treasure scroll first.” Bi Jiao said, and his figure turned into invisible Taoist mist and disappeared out of thin air.
………
Kunwu Mountain, Jinque Peak.
Ji Yuan, who was exhausted from all the traveling, stood outside the main hall of the Purple Extreme Palace where the headmaster was staying.
As soon as I returned to the mountain gate, the first thing I did was, of course, to find the head master and hand over the map of the secret realm to get some credit.
After a while, a little boy with two buns tied up in a bun walked out of the hall slowly.
“Brother Lingyu, what did the head teacher say?”
“Come with me. The headmaster is waiting for you in the hall.”
Ji Yuan straightened his clothes and followed Ling Yu into the spacious Jinque Palace. As he entered the palace, there were wisps of mist under his feet, and the spiritual energy was rich, making him feel like he was in a fairyland.
What catches the eye are rows of swaying palace lanterns, burning with South China Sea mermaid oil; there are hundreds of them, burning for thousands of years.
The entire empty hall, which was thousands of feet in size, was illuminated in every detail; there were purple gold beams that were dozens of feet high and several feet thick; there were carvings of dragons and phoenixes and paintings, and on the walls, there were exquisite talismans engraved.
At the very top, sitting on a golden throne, was a tall Taoist in purple clothes, with white hair and beard; his face was plump, his eyes were twinkling with a hint of brilliance, and he was full of majesty.
He held a white jade whisk in his hand, and his aura was so vague that it was impossible to tell his level of cultivation.
He was the headmaster of Xuanwei Dao, his surname was Jiang, his Buddhist name was Jiang Xuyuan, and his honorific title was Qiankun Yiqi Jinque Zhenren.
Jinque Zhenren was also looking at Ji Yuan, who was walking with sleeves fluttering and neither humble nor arrogant, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Few people could remain calm and composed while walking into such a spacious and majestic palace under his gaze.
“Disciple Teng Haifeng Lingbao; paying homage to Uncle Master Jinque.” Ji Yuan stood more than ten steps away and bowed deeply.
“No need to be so polite. Lingyu told me that you have something important to report?”
“I have discovered a spiritual realm at Qingbiegang in Taiyue Ridge, near Lihen Territory, and I have come to report this to the head teacher.”
“Oh? Qingbiegang Spirit Realm is the territory of Xuanjun Sect. The two sects do not interfere with each other. What does it have to do with our Xuanwei Sect?”
“My disciples believe that the two sects in Taiyue Mountain are half of one family. For millions of years, they have not erected flags or monuments to clearly define their territories. As long as the spiritual realm is in Taiyue Mountain, our Xuanwei Dao must have a share of it,” Ji Yuan said loudly.
“What a sharp-tongued Lingbao! Well said.” Jiang Xuyuan clapped his hands in praise.
With a faint smile in his eyes, he said, “But this news was reported a year ago. Your news is indeed more than a year late.”
Although Ji Yuan had expected this, he was not disappointed: “I have entered the Spirit Realm once and obtained a Spirit Realm map from a disciple of Xuanjun Sect.”
“Oh? This can calculate your merits. I was just worried about the geomancy in the spiritual realm.”
Jiang Xuyuan nodded and said, “But it also depends on your map to see if it is complete.”
He didn’t take the map matter too seriously.
After all, how much information can an ordinary disciple of Xuanjun get?
He stretched out his hand and took the scroll in Ji Yuan’s hand. When he opened it, Jiang Xuyuan’s eyes changed slightly.
On the atlas, the mountains and rivers, the swamp barriers, the homes of poisonous insects, the locations of strange beasts, the east, west, south, north, and the spiritual realms thousands of miles away were all marked in fine detail in tiny characters.
Not only that, there are many dotted lines, and blank spaces outside the map have words like [one inch = one hundred miles] written on them.
It is surprisingly complete.
“Interesting! The Xuanjun Sect has mastered such an exquisite method of drawing geomancy maps! This method must be learned!”
Jiang Xuyuan’s eyes lit up and he waved his hand: “Lingyu, take this map and have the elders of the Sutra Pavilion copy it a thousand times. They must understand the geomancy and measurement method, and then change all the hundreds of thousands of geomancy maps in the Sutra Pavilion into this one.”
“We in Xuanwei Sect must learn what Xuanjun teaches us! We must also learn what Xuanjun doesn’t teach us! Tell them that I will go check in five days.”
“Yes!” Lingyu took the map and walked out of the hall.
Ji Yuan was speechless.
Aren’t the things worth noting the locations of the various spiritual objects that I marked?
It is foreseeable that the elders of the Sutra Repository of Qingshui Yamen will curse their mothers.
The map was actually drawn by Ji Yuan himself. It was indeed extremely detailed, using a common map-drawing method from his previous life.
It’s not that it’s so advanced compared to the map surveying methods of this world.
It’s just a different way of thinking, and it’s more superficial.
“You not only brought back the map of the spiritual realm, but also the secret surveying method of the Xuanjun Sect. That counts as two merits for you. Nephew, what reward do you want?” Jiang Xuyuan was obviously very busy, so he stood up and asked.
This kind of achievement is truly a contribution to the religion and is countless times better than merit points.
One merit is worth at least 100,000 merits.
“I want to go to the Sutra Library to look up some books. Also, I have some questions and would like to ask the teacher for help.” Ji Yuan used his two merits without hesitation.
“The Sutra Library is looking for a scripture proofreader. You will take up the position later and stay as long as you want.”
Hearing him say it so lightly, Ji Yuan was stunned and complained in his heart, why did it feel like he had told her.
And when did you say you wanted to work in the Sutra Repository?
Just as he was thinking, Jiang Xuyuan sat down again and asked, “Do you have any questions? If I don’t understand, I will ask the old masters for you.”
“Since I heard about the Dao, I know that the three disasters will come to practitioners every five hundred years. Even if one’s power reaches five hundred years, one will still experience these disasters.”
“But when I went to the Spirit Realm, I saw many Xuanjun disciples who had cultivated for more than 500 years, and they still hadn’t survived the Three Calamities.”
“I don’t know why this is happening?” Ji Yuan asked out the doubts in his mind.
Jiang Xuyuan raised his head and pondered: “Good question; you are a good questioner; this question alone is worth your two merits.”
Even so, he pondered for a moment, looked at Ji Yuan and asked instead of answering: “You have seen a lot? It shouldn’t be that much, this kind of people, even if Xuanjun Sect is known for teaching without discrimination, and each generation has millions of disciples, there will not be more than ten of them.”
“I can’t hide it from my uncle, there are only five or six of them.” Ji Yuan sneered.
“Well, in fact, the Three Calamities are indeed unavoidable; only one in ten thousand can survive; however, there are some treasures that can suppress the Three Calamities.”
“It involves secrets. I can only tell you that we also have that treasure. It can not only suppress the three disasters, but also has many benefits.”
Jiang Xuyuan thought for a moment and said, “But this kind of treasure has both advantages and disadvantages.”
“The three disasters will always come. With this kind of treasure, the three disasters will come at once, and their strength will be ten or a hundred times stronger than usual. Without the confidence and strength, ordinary people would not dare to obey them.”
“Then the better luck one gets after overcoming the three disasters, right?” Ji Yuan asked thoughtfully.
“Indeed.” Jiang Xuyuan nodded.
“Can I get that treasure?”
“Boy, how many questions have you asked? You’re not thinking of taking advantage of me and forcing me to do it hundreds of times, are you?”
“No, no, I just want to solve this doubt.”
Jiang Xuyuan said this, but he still said in a friendly manner: “You are so confident; I think you have extraordinary means; in this case, go to the Merit Hall in two years to find my apprentice Liu Lingquan and pay 5 million merits to register.”
“and then?”
“Then the ancestors will arrange for you to participate in some training missions. They will select the best among them and not only grant you this treasure to help you refine it, but also appoint you as the first seat of the true teachings.”
“Five million merits…” Ji Yuan nodded, and was a little surprised by the number.
“This is just a threshold. There is only one such opportunity every ten thousand years. Do you think that anyone can participate? If hundreds of thousands of disciples in my sect go together, wouldn’t it be a mess?”
After explaining some more information, Jiang Xuyuan stood up and waved his hand: “Go ahead. Your name is Lingbao, right? Remember to report to the Sutra Library next month.”
……
Exiting the Jinque Palace; Ji Yuanbian walked back, thinking about something.
“These two small merits are worth it in exchange for these secrets. The headmaster is really good and has more Taoist spirit than I thought.” Ji Yuan thought to himself.
The essence of the spiritual realm is in Ji Yuan’s hands; it’s just a map.
Besides, the Xuanwei Sect already knew about the secret realm of Qingbiegang.
And these things can be said to be the real secrets.
An admission ticket worth five million merits alone is obviously not something that ordinary people can afford.
Even a normal inner sect lineage, with hundreds of disciples combined, could not muster this many.
Only those big families and families studying Taoism can afford it.
Even with such a high threshold, the number of people participating is estimated to be no less than hundreds or even thousands.
Moreover, according to the headmaster, there are only twelve people who can obtain the treasure this time.
Five million merits are really just the entry ticket.
If the treasure is not obtained, the five million merit points will be wasted.
But the rewards are also huge.
Anyone who obtains the inherited treasure will undoubtedly become the top genius of Xuanwei Sect, and will naturally obtain the true position of honor.
“Kill three birds with one stone; it seems I must participate.” Ji Yuan made up his mind.
First of all, he was determined to obtain the throne of Xuanwei Daozhen.
Not only will you need this identity and luck to practice magic weapons in the future, as well as the protection of the leader.
There is also the mobilization of manpower, or investigation of the location, life or death of the sister-in-law and brother.
Another thing is that as Ji Yuan has cultivated his magic power for four hundred years, the disaster is approaching and he is not completely sure of what will happen.
Xuanming cold fog can increase the chance of surviving a fire by 30%.
【Call the Wind and Summon the Rain】Great supernatural power; can control all kinds of wind, and there is no way to deal with wind disasters.
This is because the wind disaster is not real wind, nor is it worldly wind, but rather one’s own internal calamity. The effect of the supernatural power of calling the wind and rain is minimal.
If you obtain that kind of treasure, you can suppress disasters.
With fifteen hundred years of Taoist power, the power of supernatural powers will greatly increase, and he will be able to go to many dangerous places and forbidden areas, and naturally he will be able to find a way to overcome the three disasters.
At least, you can plunder many treasures like the Xuanming Cold Mist.
