Chapter 203: Miro Immortal Picture [Water-washing and Thought-transforming Method]

Has anyone uncovered the reward post?
Qiu Zhen was delighted.

In just one or two days, all the previous troubles appeared to be resolved.

It’s much better than working behind closed doors in the Valley of Truth.

Immediately, he took the tortoise shell and the immortal scripture and walked straight out of the purification room.

Soon, the main hall became the living room.

The man had a handsome face and shiny black hair, which was casually tied up with a white jade hairpin. He had an uninhibited and carefree smile and wore a loose moon-white robe, which made him look like flowing clouds in the sky, free and easy. He had a purple ribbon tied around his waist, on which hung an exquisite jade gourd, which gave off a faint aroma of wine.

“Fellow Daoist Qingwei, my name is Taoist Rongku, and I am a wandering cultivator in the mountains. I just saw your bounty post, and I happen to have some goods, so I came to pay my respects to you.”

“Fellow Daoist Rong Ku, nice to meet you!”

Qiu Zhen asked the other party to sit down.

After some pleasantries.

Taoist Rong Ku smiled and became interested:

“Fellow Daoist, I heard that you want to find a way to refine your divine consciousness?”

“Exactly!”

Qiu Zhen nodded, and then explained:

“A few days ago, I fought with my enemy and won. Before he died, in order to prevent me from taking advantage, he left a divine consciousness mark on his own magic weapon. I used my divine consciousness to refine it for a long time, but there was no movement. So I came here to find a way to refine divine consciousness.”

“I see.”

Taoist Rong Ku smiled and asked:
“Fellow Daoist, do you know the difference between divine consciousness and divine thoughts?”

Qiu Zhen shook his head: “I only have a vague understanding, please give me some advice.”

“Spiritual consciousness is the consciousness of the mind. It is the power of perception that you and I use to know the gods in the cultivation. Through practice, the spiritual consciousness of immortal cultivators can interfere with the outside world and gain great magical power.”

Taoist Rongku talked freely:

“Divine thoughts are even more powerful. They are unconscious divine consciousness transformed into various divine thoughts.”

“After a mortal dies, his resentment is so deep that he will turn into an undying ghost, which is extremely difficult to deal with. The divine consciousness left by a Yin Shen master is even more powerful. It is not difficult to forcibly dispel it with the power of divine consciousness alone, but I am afraid that the treasure will be destroyed.”

“I have a method called [Water-washing and Mind-transforming Method] that can refine divine thoughts. I wonder if you are interested?”

Qiu Zhen’s heart was moved and he said with a smile:

“Fellow Taoist, make a price.”

Taoist Rong Ku smiled:

“Fellow Daoist, you are willing to post a reward. I believe you must have known about it beforehand. The method of dissolving divine thoughts is very rare and precious.”

Qiu Zhen is not a novice in cultivating immortals at the moment and does not know anything.

In fact, he had consulted Fairy Yunrou and Monk Zhenkong before, and this kind of method to dissolve spiritual thoughts was indeed obscure and rare.

Of course, being rare and obscure doesn’t mean you can charge a sky-high price.

“You are right, fellow Daoist. I am looking for a magic weapon for the purpose of refining my mind. Its value is limited. I am offering a reward of thirty spiritual herbs and precious medicines. The price is not small. Fellow Daoist, you can’t ask for an exorbitant price. Name a price. If I think it is acceptable, then we will make a deal.”

“Fellow Daoist, you are straightforward. The price is one hundred and eighty spiritual herbs and precious medicines.”

“It’s too expensive. The value of that magic weapon is just this much.”

After bargaining between the two, the deal was finally concluded at a price of fifty plants of the precious medicine.

Taoist Rong Ku took the magical herbs and precious medicines, feeling satisfied, and went out.

After bidding farewell to Taoist Rong Ku, Qiu Zhen returned to the clean room without saying a word, holding a golden leaf in his hand, and his consciousness sank into it.

After about a hundred moments of rest.

“It’s worthy of being a grand gathering for cultivating immortals. There are all kinds of methods.”

A look of satisfaction appeared on Qiu Zhen’s face.

The “Taoist of Glory and Desolation” did not deceive him.

[The Washing Water to Transform Thoughts Method] is indeed a method of “refining divine thoughts”. After learning this method, one can transform one’s own divine thoughts into “washing water” to continuously wash the “divine thoughts” until they are refined. It is very powerful.

In essence, the method of refining divine consciousness is the fight between the spirit and the soul, the impact and fight of thoughts, which is extremely dangerous.

Therefore, the [Water Washing and Thought Transforming Method] cannot refine “divine thoughts” that are much stronger than itself, and if one is not careful, it will hurt oneself.

With Dan Yuanzi’s level of cultivation, he must at least have an epiphany of “communication between heaven and man”, and his soul and thoughts must be baptized by the power of the external world, before he can refine the remaining thoughts of consciousness in the [Fragments of the Alchemy Book].

In other words, he is currently unable to refine the old monster’s spiritual thoughts in the [Fragments of the Alchemy Book].

However, Qiu Zhen was still in a good mood.

It is always a good thing to know the specific situation and the direction of efforts.

Just at this moment, the wooden hairpin on Qiu Zhen’s head flew out by itself.

A flash of inspiration.

Xiao Zaozi showed up and said to the outside of the courtyard:

“Sir, I don’t like that Taoist in white.”

Qiu Zhen remained calm:

“What do you see?”

“Nothing.”

The little jujube was shaking the tree branch, with a simple and honest face:
“I just don’t like the smell of him.”

Qiu Zhen seemed to be thinking about something.

The little jujube has a pure heart and its intuition is often very accurate. People it doesn’t like are most likely not good people.

He was not surprised by this.

The world is in chaos nowadays, and it is common to post bounty notices or treasure-selling notices and be targeted by people with ulterior motives. It is not surprising at all.

But he is not the kind of person who would give up because of fear.

He is skilled and bold, and is not afraid of being targeted.

However, it is better to have less trouble than more.

The next moment, a ball of real fire suddenly appeared in Qiu Zhen’s hand, and the golden leaves in his palm melted into golden slag.

In Wanxian City.

“It’s cautious.”

Taoist Rong Ku, who was strolling, noticed something, paused, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he murmured in his heart:

“Man Niang, can you sense the powerful spiritual plant?”

“Yes, he is quite famous.”

Taoist Rong Ku heard Xin Tian’s response and immediately became interested:
“Have you figured out something? Can you sense what kind of spiritual plant it is?”

“It’s a sacred evil-repelling tree. To be more precise, it’s a living, spirit-like sacred evil-repelling tree!”

“What! The evil-repelling sacred tree that has turned into a spirit!”

Taoist Rong Ku’s expression changed slightly, and then he was ecstatic and his body trembled slightly.

A tree struck by lightning that can survive the destructive power of heavenly thunder can be called a “lightning-struck sacred tree”. It is the number one sacred tree in Taoism, has a wide range of uses, and is extremely rare and precious.

It would be even more terrible if the sacred tree was struck by lightning and turned into a spirit.

In a sense, the Lightning God Tree that has become a spirit has unlimited growth potential.
If it is cultivated properly, it may even become a magic weapon.

Taoist Rong Ku’s heart couldn’t help but beat fast and he couldn’t control it.

He saw on the notice board that someone was offering a reward for an ancient secret method of cultivating “spiritual plants”. Originally, he was just relying on the unique magical power of his own wife, Man Niang, and out of habit, he was just trying his luck.

Unexpectedly.
It is true that there is no place to look for after wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

“Man Niang, my chance to find my life-saving magic weapon has arrived.”

“Congratulations, sir! Congratulations, sir!”
–
On the eve of the Grand Gathering of Ten Thousand Immortals, the gathering of immortal cultivators becomes more and more heated.

The monks were looking for treasures and exchanging what they had, and it was very lively. Throughout the next day, from time to time, someone would open a reward post and bring ancient books and secretaries on spiritual plants to the door.

Qiu Zhen accepted them one by one, spending more than a hundred spiritual herbs and precious medicines to purchase six ancient secret books on spiritual plants.

In order to purchase these ancient books and secret volumes, he had almost squandered all the precious herbs and medicines he had. He was no longer able to purchase them, so he gave up and took back the “reward post”.

A person’s luck cannot always be good.

Even people with great fortune can have bad luck sometimes.

Qiu Zhen’s luck was bad from then on.

The six ancient secret books on spiritual plants are genuine treasures, and they contain many methods for cultivating top-level spiritual plants.

Although it is not as good as Guo Wenju’s method of taming beasts, it is also a top-notch treasure in the world of cultivating immortals.

However, he searched through six ancient secret books but could not find any method to cultivate and nurture the “spiritual roots of heaven and earth”.

There weren’t many descriptions.

It’s like drawing water with a bamboo basket.

Big loss.

Fortunately, we had a good harvest in the past two days.

[Black Turtle Fetal Breathing Method] [Six Jia Heavenly Book] [Water Washing and Mind Transformation Method] were all what he needed. Being able to collect so many treasures at once was already far beyond his expectations and was enough to soothe his wounded heart.

The next day.

The bustling Wanxian Market suddenly became deserted, no longer as lively as it was in the past few days.

The reason is simple: the Ten Thousand Immortals Festival has officially opened.

Early in the morning, Qiu Zhen, Fairy Yun Rou, and Monk Zhenkong went out together.

“Qingwei, I saw several groups of people entering your yard yesterday. You were so generous and kept making moves. You were really magnanimous.”

“Hey, stop talking about it. It’s a loss.”

“Goose goose~”

Fairy Yunrou smiled:

“You scared me. I thought you found a bargain again. Fortunately, I’m not the only one who made a mistake and lost money.”

Qiu Zhen: “.”

The three of them chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the square in Wanxian City with a group of fellow travelers.

At this moment, the city square was crowded with people and extremely lively.

There is a high platform in the center of the square, and under the platform, there are cushions arranged in a fan shape, with fewer near and more far away.

Among the cultivators who attended the banquet, apart from the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and other immortal cultivation forces, there were hundreds of independent cultivators, a large number.

The Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance had already been organized, with seating arranged according to the level of cultivation.

The token number of the house is the seat, one person per seat.

Qiu Zhen, Fairy Yun Rou, and Monk Zhenkong sat in the front middle position, facing the platform.

Perhaps it was because the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance was well organized that the scene was diverse but not chaotic.

Soon, hundreds of people took their seats one after another, and everything seemed orderly.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, suddenly, two streaks of light flew from the sky and landed on the platform.

It was none other than Mr. Wansheng and Taoist Priest Biyou.

“Meet the All Saints Alliance Leader, Elder Biyou!”

Everyone bowed in unison.

“No need to be polite.”

The voice of Wansheng Jushi was plain, but it resounded throughout the Wanxian Square and was clear to the ears:
“Today, many of you fellow Taoists must have come here to listen to me preach and explain the inner and outer cultivation methods. Unfortunately, you must be disappointed. Today, I will not preach!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the monks in the square began to talk about it, with regretful looks on their faces.

Mr. Wansheng is a well-known top-notch old monster in the world of cultivating immortals. He has profound Taoism skills. It is a rare opportunity to listen to him preach.

For many people, it is more attractive than the legendary “True Picture of the Immortal’s Inner Scene”.

After all, only a few people are destined to have the chance to see the true form of the immortals’ inner world, while most people can only envy it but are not lucky enough to enjoy it.

Everyone felt regretful, but no one complained. Instead, they all looked at Taoist Biyou.

The leader of the Ten Thousand Saints does not preach the law, and the Taoist Biyou is not much different in his preaching.

Taoist Biyou is also an old monster of the Yuanshen realm, and is very famous in the world of immortal cultivation.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Taoist Biyou shook his head slightly:
“The old Taoist doesn’t preach the sutras.”

“boom!”

This time, the entire Wanxian Square was no longer filled with discussions, but was completely in an uproar.

The faces of all the monks were filled with disappointment.

“Master Wansheng, Taoist Biyou, I have come all the way from a remote prefecture, and encountered many encirclements and suppressions by the imperial court along the way. I risked my life to come to Yulong Mountain for the banquet, just to listen to the senior’s lectures.”

“It was the same for me. For the sake of safety, I did not cast any spells to hasten my journey. I followed the caravan and it took me several months to reach the Yulong Mountains. I went through so much hardship and finally made it to the meeting. How could it be that you are not preaching for no reason?”

“Master Wansheng, what happened? I am just one step away from a breakthrough. Please understand that it is not easy for me to practice.”

Perhaps because they were afraid of causing a “spiritual consciousness storm”, people did not use their spiritual consciousness to communicate, but spoke with their mouths, so the whole square was in an uproar.

The huge square suddenly became lively.

“quiet!”

Seeing everyone’s excitement, Wansheng layman smiled faintly, and his spiritual consciousness transmitted a message throughout the square:

“Don’t worry, everyone. The lecture has not been cancelled. It’s just that it will not be held by this leader and Elder Biyou. There will be another expert. It’s not appropriate for the two of us to embarrass ourselves in public.”

Is there any other expert who can give some advice?

The monks present suddenly quieted down upon hearing this. They were overjoyed, but more curious.

“Master Wansheng, I wonder which senior is giving the lecture?”

Someone shouted.

The All Saints Alliance Leader smiled upon hearing this, but did not answer. Instead, he took out a scroll from his sleeve:
“This time, the Miro Immortal Picture has been opened to the highest quality, and Senior Painting Immortal will personally give a lecture on the sutra. I wonder if you are satisfied?”

boom!
This time, there was an even bigger commotion in the huge square.

Especially under the high platform, dozens of top Yin God masters in the realm of “Controlling Qi and Wandering Gods” were all excited when they heard about the “top-grade Miluo Fairy Map” and “Senior Painting Fairy”.

What happened?
Qiu Zhen had little knowledge and looked at Fairy Yunrou and Monk Zhenkong beside him.
“You two, what does the All Saints Alliance Leader mean by this?”

“do not know.”

Fairy Yunrou and Monk Zhenkong shook their heads, equally confused, not knowing what was going on.

In essence, they were also independent cultivators and had no master. At most, they entered the world of immortal cultivation earlier than Qiu Zhen, had more affinity with immortals, and had more experience, but they did not know many things.

Just when the three of them were confused, they heard Yu Chanzi’s telepathic voice.

“You three are so lucky. It’s your first time attending a cultivation event and you actually encountered a top-quality scroll. You are truly blessed.”

Qiu Zhen, Fairy Yunrou, and Monk Zhenkong became interested.

“Fellow Daoist Yu Chanzi, is there something special about this?”

“Naturally there are particularities.”

Yu Chanzi was also a little excited at this moment:
“The Immortal Cultivation Festival originated from the No. 1 force in the Immortal Cultivation World, the [Miro Palace]. It was called the [Miro Festival] back then, with the purpose of passing on immortal methods and spreading the great Dao. This [Miro Immortal Map] is the treasure of inheritance. However, the Painting Immortal who caused unrest in the [Miro Immortal Map] was injured, and his origin was damaged, so he could not spread the great Dao.”

“Now that Senior Painting Immortal has opened a top-quality painting scroll, this means that the [Milo Festival] will reappear!”

Qiu Zhen, Fairy Yunrou, and Monk Zhenkong all felt awe-inspiring.

“Fellow Daoist Yu Chanzi, what does the [Milo Festival] mean?”

“It means the way to immortality”
