Chapter 106 Just because I am in this mountain
Chapter 106 Just because I am in this mountain
The next day, the first day of August, he still left his physical body in Wuyou Cave to refine Qi, and controlled his bamboo body to go to Jiutian Yingyuan Mansion to learn magic. However, this time, he specifically moved the blood dragon of his heart palace to the acupoints of his bamboo body.
A few months ago, after spending about a year, Cheng Xinzhan had entered the door of the divine thunder method, so he applied to transfer from the Beiji Division's Zhuxie Office to the Penglai Division's Ganlin Office to continue practicing the water thunder method.
However, from last year's Jingzhe to this year's Jingzhe, he not only got started with the method of divine thunder, but more importantly, he got started with the method of thunder. The practice of divine thunder alone did not take up too much of his time, so he quickly got rid of the true evil.
The same goes for naval mines.
The teacher who taught Cheng Xinzhan how to mine was Taoist Master Jianping, who was also He Jiyuan's master. He believed that Cheng Xinzhan's ten days of practice a month was equivalent to He Jiyuan's several months of practice. Of course, this was not to say that He Jiyuan was bad. Taoist Master Jianping also believed that he was far inferior to Cheng Xinzhan in terms of comprehension.
Hearing that Cheng Xinzhan wanted to refine Dragon Thunder, Taoist Jianping nodded and said,
"You have indeed mastered the art of water thunder. The next step is to practice water grinding. However, only those with dragon power can practice dragon thunder. Do you know this?"
Cheng Xinzhan nodded.
Taoist Jianping understood and said, "There are very few people practicing Dragon Thunder in the mansion. There is one person, the head of the Demon Slaying Department of the North Pole Division, and then there are the elders in the Five Thunder Court. I suggest you go directly to the mountain master to see if you can enter the Five Thunder Court to practice. Anyway, you have to practice Divine Thunder, Water Thunder, and Dragon Thunder, so why not learn all five thunders in the Five Thunder Court. I think you have the qualifications."
Cheng Xinzhan nodded. Since the headmaster had already made an easy choice for him, there was no reason for him not to use it.
He went straight up to the ninth floor and arrived at the Shenxiao Yuqing Mansion. He saw a wooden sign at the door that read "Director, please sign up to enter" and said,
"Cheng Xinzhan, an intern at the Ganlin Department of Penglai Division, requests to see the Palace Master."
"Enter."
Cheng Xinzhan went in and saw the man writing furiously again.
"It's Xinzhan, what's the matter?"
The man did not look up and continued to review.
Cheng Xinzhan bowed and said, "Palace Master, I would like to practice the Five Thunders together with you."
Zao Wou-Ki paused, raised his head, and smiled.
"That's right. I'm afraid that you're practicing thunder magic for the sole purpose of warding off evil spirits. If you want to practice the Five Thunders at the same time, I'll naturally welcome that."
Previously, at the request of Wen Sukong, he let Cheng Xinzhan practice in Lei Mansion, but he had not paid attention to him. However, later, the child became famous in Baiyujing and his name spread to the earth. There was also a decree from the head master ordering Sanshan to teach him the true teachings, so he began to pay attention to him.
He asked Jian Xian, who taught Cheng Xinzhan the Divine Thunder Method, and Jian Ping, who taught the Water Thunder Method, and he also asked the heads of both departments, but the answers he got were the same.
"I wish I could pass on the true teachings of the Lei Mansion."
These people also came to him and asked him to get the child from Meiji Mountain. However, Zhao Wuji knew Wen Sukong's temper, so he naturally would not really ask for him. What's more, the deputy headmaster in charge of Cardinal Mountain is also the founder of Meiji Mountain.
However, if it's not possible openly, we can do it secretly. As long as this child is studying in Lei Mansion and is unwilling to leave, no one can do anything about it.
I have been attending the class as an auditor for two years, but the thunder method is profound. What can I learn in two years? If I attend the class as an auditor for ten or twenty years, it will not be too late to switch to the new method then.
"Among the five thunders, you have already practiced the divine thunder and water thunder, as well as the heavenly thunder, community thunder and dragon thunder. The heavenly thunder is responsible for the prosperity of fortune, the community thunder is responsible for felling mountains and destroying temples, and the dragon thunder is responsible for rewarding merits and punishing evil. The heavenly thunder and community thunder are easy to deal with, but the dragon thunder can only be practiced by those who possess the power of dragons, which is a bit troublesome."
Zhao Wuji was thinking of a solution. Dragon power is rare, otherwise dragon thunder would not be the most difficult thunder method to learn among the five thunders.
Generally speaking, if humans want to possess the power of dragons, they must either be emperors, or refine dragon energy, or be gifted with dragon seeds.
None of these three is easy. The emperor of the world has the power of a dragon, but he is destined to be unable to practice it. Even if he wants to learn, no one dares to teach him. As for the royal bloodline, it is estimated that only the prince who is the regent can carry some power of a dragon, and there is no need to think about the others.
Dragon Gang is even rarer. The thirty-six kinds of Heavenly Gang are already extremely rare things in the world, not to mention those that contain dragon power. At most, there are only three or four of them.
As for the gift of dragon seeds, it was naturally not simple. First of all, the dragon seeds had to be mature dragon seeds. True dragons and nine sons were rarer than celestial beings. Among the dragon species, they had to be the true blood species of Jiao, Chi, Qiu, Pan, Jin, and Li. Miscellaneous blood species such as Mirage, Viper, Fish, Python, etc., even if they had some dragon shape, were still not true dragon seeds.
And even for the types such as Jiao, Chi, Qiu, Pan, Jin and Li, it does not mean that they can possess the power of a dragon just by having some blood, horns, scales and hair. Their blood is from their heart blood, their horns are from their medulla, their scales are from their fins and their hair are from their whiskers. Each of them is treasured by the dragon. How could they give them away easily?
"Palace Master, I was lucky enough to get some opportunities, and I should have the power of a dragon."
Seeing that Zhao Wuji was thinking, Cheng Xinzhan said something in a low voice.
"Ok?"
Zhao Wuji looked over, a little surprised, "Let it out so I can see it."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xinzhan's mind moved, a blood dragon swam in his heart, and a dragon's might emanated from him.
Zhao Wuji felt it and nodded, "Yes, you have a good opportunity. The dragon's might is like a prison and an ocean, which can really help you practice dragon thunder.
"Well, don't go to the Ministry to study. Go to the Five Thunders Court. The elders there must be a little bored after their training. It's a good opportunity for you to go over and keep them company."
Cheng Xinzhan was delighted when he heard this, as this was exactly what he wanted.
----
The elders in Wu Lei Yuan are indeed old and numerous. After all, the young ones are all working in the offices.
When Zhao Wuji led Cheng Xinzhan over, he praised him a lot, which aroused the curiosity of the elders. When they heard that this kid wanted to practice the Five Thunders together, they became even more interested. Some elders asked a few questions casually, and Cheng Xinzhan answered them fluently and even had some interesting ideas and wise remarks, which attracted the repeated praises of the elders.
The final result was that Cheng Xinzhan was released very late.
When he flew back to Meiji Mountain, he suddenly discovered that there was thunder rising into the sky where the bamboo stele was hidden.
Is Master back?
He fell over immediately.
Sure enough, I saw Master in the bamboo pavilion.
"Master."
Cheng Xinzhan walked over to pay his respects.
Wen Sukong nodded with a smile.
Cheng Xinzhan saw that Wen Sukong was surrounded by thunder and full of vitality, so he smiled and said,
"Congratulations, Master, for successfully overcoming the tribulation."
Wen Sukong smiled and said, "It went smoothly."
He was a little curious. He didn't know the specific realm of his master yet, so he asked,
"Master, how many pill tribulations have you experienced?"
Wen Sukong looked at him when he heard this, but did not answer immediately.
"It is my fault for being so presumptuous."
Cheng Xinzhan said.
"Second wash."
Wen Sukong answered with two words.
"what?"
Cheng Xinzhan was a little surprised. Master had only washed twice?
Seeing his apprentice's stunned look, Wen Sukong smiled and said,
"Do you think my master's realm is too low?"
"Disciple doesn't dare."
He shook his head.
“This is the second baptism for the Master’s incarnation.”
Wen Sukong's voice became a little softer.
"what?"
Cheng Xinzhan was even more surprised this time.
"Why, do you think you are the only one who has an avatar?"
Wen Sukong said with a smile.
"Disciple doesn't dare."
He said it again.
"The practice of incarnation and spirit division is one of the fundamental methods of our Meiji Mountain. My incarnation is not as good as yours, but I have also practiced from the humblest level to the highest level." Wen Sukong said, and she also explained,
"When your physical body and incarnation reach the third realm at the same time, it will bring you another benefit, which is that others will not be able to know your true realm."
Cheng Xinzhan understood immediately. Yes, who knows whether the one who is undergoing the tribulation this time is the real body or the incarnation?
"My true self is the Sixth Golden Elixir Wash."
Wen Sukong told her disciple her true realm.
This is higher than Cheng Xinzhan imagined.
Speaking of the realm of cultivation, Cheng Xinzhan reported his recent progress to his master and mentioned the sword refining in the Yang Palace and his fellow practitioners of the Five Thunders.
Wen Sukong nodded and said everything was fine.
Cheng Xinzhan was a little worried. He had been practicing thunder, sword and refining arts together recently and had made rapid progress, but his progress in refining Qi was a little slow.
Now that the Fire Palace and the Gold Palace have been opened, he told Wen Sukong about his idea of using the Earth to open the Spleen Palace next.
Wen Sukong listened carefully, nodded and said yes, it was indeed reasonable and well-founded.
Seeing that his master agreed, he explained his recent troubles to Wen Sukong.
"Master, Wu Earth represents a mountain, and it also has a noble position, determining yin and yang, life and death. I originally had my eyes on Mount Tai and Mount Laoshan, and wanted to go and see them in person, but the headmaster asked me to study in the sect for two years, and I am afraid that I will be delayed."
Wen Sukong listened, glanced at this clever and thoughtful disciple, and said,
"Do you know why the headmaster wanted to keep you for two years?"
Cheng Xinzhan blinked. Isn’t it just because he wants to learn more and better?
"It's true that the headmaster has taken a liking to you, but the reason why the time is set in two years is because the Dragon and Tiger Dharma Assembly will be held the year after next, and he specifically asked you to participate, so he doesn't want you to run around to avoid mistakes."
Cheng Xinzhan nodded, so there was such a thing.
"The Dragon and Tiger Dharma Assembly is held every three generations. It is also the founding ceremony of Longhu Mountain to recruit disciples. The major sects of Yuzhang will be invited to watch the ceremony. After the disciples are recruited, our sects will perform Dharma and discuss Taoism. It is a rare grand event in Yuzhang."
Wen Sukong explained.
"Also," she added, "You don't have to go outside to look for opportunities every time you open your residence. This time you went far away instead of near."
Cheng Xinzhan didn't understand what he meant.
"Master asks you, what does Meiji Mountain major in?"
Cheng Xinzhan was shocked when he heard this.
Yes!
Meiji Mountain is a Yin-Yang school that specializes in corpse reincarnation, which seems very appropriate!
However, it is true that Meiji Mountain is a sacred mountain, but it is not a revered mountain.
Wen Sukong guessed what Cheng Xinzhan was thinking, and said meaningfully,
"Do you think the words 'Ming' and 'Zhi' were chosen randomly?"
Cheng Xinzhan frowned.
"bright".
"rule".
Thinking about it carefully, his eyes gradually widened. These two words seemed to be exactly the words that the high-ranking venerable loved!
"This……"
He didn't know what to say.
"There are only you and me in Meiji Mountain now. If something happens to my master someday, you will be the master of the mountain. There are some things I should tell you."
Wen Sukong said this in a serious tone.
Seeing this, Cheng Xinzhan's face also became solemn.
"You come with me."
Wen Sukong walked out of the bamboo pavilion and Cheng Xinzhan followed him.
She stopped in front of the stone tablet that read "Where Zhan Biyun Hides Bamboos", drew a few symbols in the air with her fingers, and asked Cheng Xinzhan to remember them. Finally, she entered the light symbol into the stone tablet.
A light hole suddenly appeared on the surface of the stone tablet!
She led the way into the cave of light.
Cheng Xinzhan also walked in.
The light was blinding, he closed his eyes and went in. When he opened them again, he was immediately shocked by the scene before him!
"This, this, this is..."
He stuttered a little.
“This is what the inside of Meiji Mountain looks like.”
Wen Sukong said calmly.
Cheng Xinzhan couldn't believe it.
It turns out that the interior of Meiji Mountain is empty!
The whole mountain was hollowed out!
The underground is deeper and bottomless, as if it leads to the underworld!
And in such a vast space, there are countless coffins floating densely!
These coffins are divided into two types, gold and jade, and each is arranged in the shape of a yin-yang fish, with gold representing yin and jade representing yang. They fit tightly together and rotate slowly, forming a swimming Tai Chi diagram!
What a scene this is!
What kind of person is buried in the coffin?
"Inside the jade coffin are the remains of the predecessors of Sanqing Mountain who were above the Golden Core Realm."
One sentence was earth-shattering.
Cheng Xinzhan stared at his master in a daze.
"Meiji Mountain is the mausoleum of Sanqing Mountain. You and I, the predecessors of Meiji Mountain, are all grave keepers."
Wen Sukong said.
"Master, Master, why is this happening?"
Cheng Xinzhan was puzzled. Even if a cultivator could not ascend to heaven, when his lifespan was over, he would just sit in meditation and pass away. His essence would return to the heaven and earth, and nothing would be left. How could there be a corpse?
When one reaches the Jindan stage, when the lifespan ends, it is not called sitting and passing away, but is called ascending to heaven and earth. After death, the essence of the body will return to the heaven and earth, and at the same time, it will give birth to life in the dead air. The soul will be reincarnated, and the aging Jindan will turn into a white crane, soaring in the blue sky, as a witness to the birth and death of a Jindan cultivator.
There is only one exception, that is, the cultivator dies suddenly, and his body is sealed by some kind of spiritual energy, or he is turned into a walking corpse.
However, with so many coffins, how could the predecessors of Sanqing Mountain end up like this?
"These are all seniors who, after their lifespans ended, voluntarily locked up their physical essence and turned into corpses. This is because if one day a force that can destroy Sanqing Mountain attacks the mountain gate, and heaven and earth are helpless, then the disciples of Meiji Mountain can gather thousands of corpses to resist the enemy! Among these thousands of corpses, the lowest realm in life is the Golden Core Realm, and there are also immortal corpses!"
Wen Sukong's voice trembled slightly.
Cheng Xinzhan remained silent for a long time. The Nine Yang Refining Eyes had never been dazzling, but now, they felt a little sore.
"Is this the reason why Master has been telling me not to neglect the Corpse Raising Technique?"
Cheng Xinzhan asked in a low voice, as if he was afraid of disturbing these seniors.
"Yes."
Wen Sukong nodded, "This is the duty of the disciples of Meiji Mountain, so Meiji Mountain does not need too many disciples. A few grave keepers are enough on this mountain. This is one of the biggest secrets of Sanqing Mountain. But no matter how few disciples there are on Meiji Mountain, the inheritance will never be broken. Once the generation of Meiji Mountain is broken, the living ancestor will directly become the new mountain master and immediately start to recruit disciples to resume the Dharma lineage."
"If even the ancestor is gone, then the deputy leader of Yuanyin Hall will become the new mountain master and continue the lineage! This is also the reason why the deputy leader of Yuanyin Hall is in charge of Meizhi Mountain. The first thing the deputy leaders of Yuanyin Hall in every generation do after taking office is to be told this secret by the head of the sect or the master of Meizhi Mountain!"
Wen Sukong looked at Cheng Xinzhan and smiled again, "Master, I know that many sects in the sect want you to come over, but unless you are willing, it will be useless even if they ask the headmaster for help! The inheritance of Mount Meiji is the most important thing in Mount Sanqing!"
Asking for monthly tickets at the beginning of the month, comments and messages are welcome!
