Chapter 282 The dust has settled, and the old relationship has begun again

Chapter 282 The dust has settled, and the old relationship has begun again

Cheng Xinzhan listened to the familiar voice and a smile appeared on his face. From the time he left Fuxia Lake until now, Hong Changbao had been in seclusion for such a long time, it turned out that he was waiting for this opportunity.

Yes, Hong Changbao has no elders to protect him, nor does he have immortal soldiers to defend himself. If he were to break through the realm and reveal his fetal sound, in a place like the heart of Miaojiang, someone would probably come to attack him right away.

It turned out that he was waiting for the man who was repairing the plank road to appear.

Now that he has been promoted to the fourth realm, with the help of the magic sword left by the red-haired ancestor and some other foundations, Fuxia Lake has finally become a tough nut to crack. The investment and support of Haoran League over the years have not been in vain.

"Congratulations to Master Hong for his enlightenment, and Bamianshan congratulates Fuxia Lake!"

The innocent boy happily returned the gift and congratulated.

"Congratulations to Master Hong for his enlightenment, and the Hengshan Sword Sect congratulates Fuxia Lake!"

Deng Qingyang expressed his congratulations again.

According to the unwritten rules of the world, if a new dojo is established by breaking through the four boundaries, the major sects in the surrounding areas will congratulate it. As the saying goes, everyone will carry the sedan chair, and if your family opens a branch in the future, people will naturally support it. Of course, as long as you have a strong enough face, a high enough reputation, and good popularity, the sects that congratulate you will naturally not be limited to the borders around the dojo.

Miao territory borders Wuling, Bashu, Dianwen, Nanhuang and Sanxiang, but only Bamianshan and Hengshan came to congratulate Fuxia Lake.

This is not surprising. The Taoist sect congratulates the Taoist sect, and the side sects congratulate the side sects, all celebrating the prosperity of their own Taoist sects. But now, under the rampage of the northern and southern demon sects, the side sects have declined, and most of them have turned into demon sects. This new Fuxia Lake, as soon as it appeared in the world, is about to become the flagship of the side sects. How can other side sects come to congratulate?

Hengshan congratulated him because he knew that Haoran League had supported Fuxia Lake in recent years, and it was also for the sake of being a close neighbor and fighting against the demons together. Bamianshan congratulated him purely because Tianzhen Tongzi admired this man who could break through the realm and continue the lineage despite the loss of the ancestral temple, the death of the ancestor, and the enemies on all sides.

When the strange phenomena of the east sun, west rain and the red clouds in the sky subsided and the storm settled, the innocent boy returned to the Zhenwu Temple, and Cheng Xinzhan and Liu Guquan also walked in.

"Everyone who sees it has a share."

The innocent boy said with a smile, and then cut the Gangsha into four pieces, kept one piece for himself, fed one piece to the Zhenwu Sword, and handed the remaining two pieces to Liu Guquan and Cheng Xinzhan.

Liu Guquan blushed.
"No merit, no reward. Just take this energy and the Immortal Sword."

Cheng Xinzhan also nodded.

The innocent boy never hesitated when doing things. He raised the gauze and threw it towards the two of them, saying,
"It's up to you whether you want to or not. Don't blame me if it falls to the ground and scatters."

When the two saw the Gangsha slowly floating over, they looked at each other and accepted it. Liu Guquan also took it with his hand like Tian Zhen, but Cheng Xinzhan was not at that level yet, so he took it with a lead bottle.

"You should go back quickly. The Immortal Sword will accompany you during the pregnancy. Tell Senior Brother that once my Nascent Soul is stable, the Immortal Sword will naturally go back."

The innocent boy immediately began to order Liu Guquan to leave.

Liu Guquan was completely helpless against this junior brother, and through the strong fetal sounds and the strange phenomenon of the gift of heaven and earth, he realized that if Wudang Mountain wanted to become the world's sect or produce a second immortal, it would most likely depend on this junior brother.

"Your temple is just being built, and the Zhenwu Temple is empty. Why don't I send some disciples over and transfer the genealogy to you?"

Liu Guquan stood up and prepared to leave, but asked one more question before leaving.

The innocent boy shook his head like a rattle.
"I recruited them myself. I don't dare to recruit people from Wudang Mountain. They all want skills but have no skills, and their eyes are looking up to the sky. And there is another thing you can say when you return to the mountain. As long as Wudang does not completely break off with the secular Zhu Ming, I will never return to Wudang."

Liu Guquan shook his head and sighed when he heard this. If it was so easy to break, it would have been broken long ago. Why drag it on until now? However, he knew that Tian Zhen was devoted to the Tao and was unwilling to pay attention to these things, so he didn't say much, just nodded and left.

When Tian Zhen and Cheng Xinzhan were the only ones left in the temple, a smile immediately broke out on Tian Zhen's stern face, and he called Cheng Xinzhan to sit next to him.

"How did you find the bead last night?"

asked innocently.

The bead was extraordinary and hidden in the night. Tian Zhen and Xian Jian didn't find it at first. Although Xian Jian would definitely detect it if it got closer, Cheng Xinzhan had discovered its tracks first, so Tian Zhen was able to deal with it more calmly.

Cheng Xinzhan replied,

"Divination technique passed down from our ancestors."

The innocent boy nodded and said,
"All divination techniques in the world are more effective with greater costs. It is a taboo to predict the future with a low score. You must have been seriously injured, right?"

Cheng Xinzhan smiled and shook his head.
"Small injury."

Tian Zhen snorted, obviously not believing it. Then, he stretched out his hand in front of Cheng Xinzhan, turned his hand over, and a light flashed in his palm, and a dark green bead appeared.
"Take it."

Cheng Xinzhan took a look and found that it was the bead that Xin Chenzi placed his second soul on. Moreover, after being hit by the magic sword, it did not break at all, but the light of the gem was much dimmer.

"No, no."

Cheng Xinzhan shook his head repeatedly. What he did as a Dharma protector was to repay Master Wen for his kindness in preaching. He accepted the Gangsha because Master Wen forced him to, and also because Liu Guquan was there. It would be difficult for him to accept it if he didn't accept it. Since he had already obtained the spiritual Gang, how could he dare to accept the precious pearl.

Tian Zhen smiled when she heard this, tossed the beads in her hand, and asked Cheng Xinzhan,

"Don't be so quick to say no. Do you know what kind of beads these are?"

Cheng Xinzhan shook his head.

"This is the Xuanpin Pearl, the Green Robe Patriarch's famous magic weapon. I didn't expect that he would be willing to give such a treasure to Xin Chenzi. However, the Green Robe Patriarch is now more capable and has a broader vision, so it is understandable that he is generous.

"Plus, he had previously gnawed on Xin Chenzi's arm, damaging his eldest disciple's foundation, causing his golden elixir to be incomplete. He must have felt that he owed him something. And if it weren't for this bead, with Xin Chenzi's ability forced to the fourth realm, he probably wouldn't be able to stay in Baiman Mountain."

The innocent boy explained.

This was the first time Cheng Xinzhan had heard of this name, Xuanpin? These two words were not put together randomly, and it didn't sound like a magic treasure.

"The Valley Spirit is immortal, it is called Xuanpin. The gate of Xuanpin is the root of heaven and earth." "Xuanpin" means the Yin Mother of the Great Way, and is somewhat similar to "Yuanyin" which is opposite to "Chunyang". It is a very wonderful Taoist term. How could the devil give the pearl such a name?

Cheng Xinzhan expressed his doubts.

The innocent boy smiled and answered,

"Of course this is not something that Green Robe has refined. It is something that is naturally born."

"A natural thing?"

Tian Zhen hummed and asked,

"Have you ever heard of "Xuanyou Female Evil"? "

Cheng Xinzhan nodded. Among all the evil spirits that have appeared throughout history, this one is also one of the highest ranked evil spirits. It is at the same level as the "Huangji Zhengwu Evil Spirit" and the "Dutian Liuji Evil Spirit". It is said that this evil spirit has the magical effect of embracing everything and promoting the growth of all things. It is also known as the "Gold Mother and Wood Father" among the evil spirits. It can promote the growth of gold and wood evil spirits, and it also has a certain restraint on gold and wood evil spirits.

However, since this evil spirit appeared in the world, few people have been able to obtain it. In the past hundred years, fewer and fewer of them have appeared in the world, so many people believe that this evil spirit is dead. Perhaps the newly appeared "Purple Fire Rotten Peach Evil" is the replacement of this evil spirit.

"This Xuanpin Pearl is a spiritual pearl born from the 'Xuanyou Pinmu Sha'. It is a natural spiritual object. Because of its magical effect of embracing everything and promoting the birth of all things, it can be used to cultivate a second soul, to refine an incarnation, and even to be placed in the Huangting to repair a broken golden elixir.

"This treasure has appeared twice. The first time it appeared in Lishan Mountain in Guanzhong, it was taken away by Qingcheng Mountain, which created the reputation of "Qingcheng is the most secluded place in the world". The second time it appeared in Lijiang River in the southern wilderness, it was taken away by Lupao Jinshuiloutai, who refined it into his second soul. Once, Lupao was almost beaten to death by Changmei, but he came back to life with the help of this bead."

Tian Zhen handed the beads over again and said to Cheng Xinzhan,
"The devil only knows how to use this kind of treasure, not how to nurture it. Although this pearl has experienced two demon masters, Lu Pao and Xin Chenzi, and has lost a lot of its essence, and was chopped by my sword, it is still a rare treasure. "And the blood evil spirit that this pearl has been stained with has been refined away by my fairy sword. You should collect it and nurture it. It will be of infinite use in the future."

Cheng Xinzhan waved his hand.
"How can I accept such a precious treasure? This treasure is magical and should shine brightly in the hands of Master Wen."

Tian Zhen put on a serious face. His knowledge was so broad that he knew at a glance that Cheng Xinzhan's use of divination had depleted his energy and blood, and might even have shortened his lifespan. And a person's time limit is incomparable to any treasure.

"You still insist that I owe you a favor? Take it immediately!"

As she said this, Tian Zhen was about to stuff the beads into Cheng Xinzhan's arms, but seeing this, Cheng Xinzhan immediately stood up and

"Master Wen is trying to drive me away."

Innocently and childishly, he slapped the floor vigorously.
"The elders have bestowed upon me, and I dare not refuse!"

Cheng Xinzhan said,
"The merit is small but the gift is great, so I cannot accept it. If this treasure is useless to Master Wen or Master Wen has more, then I would have the audacity to accept it, but this treasure is infinitely magical and there are only two of its kind in the world, so I cannot accept it."

He stared at Cheng Xinzhan innocently, but he couldn't do anything about it, so he said,
"Sit down first!"

Cheng Xinzhan sat down six feet away from the innocent boy.

Tian Zhen held the beads in his hand, thought for a moment, and then said,

"How about this, I will lend you this bead for sixty years. During this sixty years, I need to stabilize my pregnancy and mind, regulate my Nascent Soul, and recruit many disciples. I don't have time to study this thing. You can use it to comprehend it first. After sixty years, you can return it to me. And by nurturing the bead for me for sixty years, you are also doing me a favor. Is this okay?
"If you don't agree, I'll be really angry. If I get angry and the tire slips, it'll all be your fault."

The innocent boy said very seriously.

Cheng Xinzhan thought about it and felt that he could accept this, so he bowed.
"So, then follow the teacher."

Tian Zhen smiled when she heard that and threw the bead over like throwing a peach. Cheng Xinzhan caught it with both hands. As soon as he held it, he could feel the extraordinary nature of the bead. It was as light as a feather, as cool as spring rain, and it was a spiritual object that could be directly inserted into the acupoints of the human body.

"Okay, sit closer. I need to remind you of some things about pregnancy."

Cheng Xinzhan didn't have time to take a closer look at the spiritual pearl, so he put it in his arms and sat closer to listen to the Taoist teachings.

Crows fly and rabbits leave, and a month has passed. It is the hottest time of the year, the Great Heat.

During this month, Cheng Xinzhan not only listened to the Dharma, but also set up a mountain protection array with Tian Zhen Tongzi. In just half a month, not much could be accomplished. It was just a framework, and the mountain veins had not been reinforced. It was far from enough to resist the attack of the four realms monks.

At present, there are two urgent matters, and some prohibitions have been made. One is to hide the traces, so that the naked eye cannot see them, and if a mortal enters by mistake, he will turn back. The second is to set up a test formation according to the request of the innocent boy, and those who want to become his disciple must break through the formation and come up.

Two days before the Great Heat, the two men set up the formation, and on the day of the Great Heat, some people went up the mountain.

The two of them sat in the Zhenwu Temple - during this month, they also repaired the roof of the Zhenwu Temple, and used the formation to observe the situation of those who went up the mountain to seek the truth.

After taking a closer look, Cheng Xinzhan smiled.

The man was a burly guy with a square face and a curly beard. He was wearing a bright red robe and looked like a general.

"Xinzhan, why are you laughing? Do you recognize this person?"

The innocent boy asked.

Cheng Xinzhan nodded.

"Master Wen, do you still remember that when we first met, we talked about a village in Miaojiang?"

Tian Zhen nodded and said,

"What's wrong? The person who came here is obviously a monster. He can't be from the Miao village."

Cheng Xinzhan said,
"He is from that Miao village, but he is not a human, he is a big red-crowned rooster in the village!"

"Oh? Haha, I see. Their chickens have a strong impression on me. This monster is not bad either. It has a solid foundation and abundant Yang energy. It is very suitable for practicing the method of exorcising demons!"

The innocent boy smiled and then asked Cheng Xinzhan,

"Xinzhan is still in contact with that village?"

Cheng Xinzhan nodded.

"There have always been some, but when I went to see them a few days ago, I found that the old village chief who I got along well with had passed away. I think they will come and go less and less in the future."

Upon hearing this, the Taoist Tianzhen said yes.

"People leave and tea gets cold, it is irrefutable, worldly love is but a snap of the fingers."

Cheng Xinzhan nodded, thinking that the village was not far from here. It would be great if Ji Kaiming could become Master Wen's disciple. He could have a romantic relationship, embark on a bright and prosperous road, and also take care of the villagers. It would be a truly wonderful thing.

It depends on whether he has this affinity.

The two of them watched Ji Kaiming pass numerous tests in Zhenwu Temple and walk up the mountain step by step.

This adventure lasted three days and three nights. On the morning of the fourth day, before the sun rose, Ji Kaiming finally passed the last checkpoint and reached the top of Bamashan Mountain.

Bamian Mountain is also a flat-topped mountain with steep cliffs on eight sides. Only in the south direction was a step for mountain climbing trial hastily carved out by Cheng Xinzhan and Tian Zhen Tongzi in this month, which was integrated with the mountain protection formation.

At this moment, Ji Kaiming stepped over the last step and saw a clear view in front of him. The sky was about to brighten, and there was a layer of bluish-white mist floating on the top of the mountain. However, it was waist-high, so one would mistakenly think they were in the water.

On the top of the mountain, which was in full view, there were lawns all along the edge, and only in the middle was there a forest, with eaves visible in the forest. So Ji Kaiming knew that was where the Zhenwu Temple was.

He began to walk into the woods.

Inside the Zhenwu Temple, Cheng Xinzhan stood up and said goodbye.
"Congratulations to the Master for accepting his first disciple. I have to take my leave now. Otherwise, if he sees me, he might think that I am secretly taking care of him, which will be detrimental to his future state of mind and practice.

"I am sorry to bother you for a long time. I am grateful for your teachings. I have benefited a lot from them. I will come to Bamianshan to listen to the immortal music someday."

Tian Zhen saw Cheng Xinzhan talking a lot and didn't want to listen, so she waved her hand and told him to leave quickly.

Cheng Xinzhan bowed down, and when he stood up, he disappeared into the Zhenwu Temple.

At this moment, a voice was heard from outside the courtyard.
"I am from Hongjiang, Miaojiang. I am Ji Kaiming, a little demon, and I pay my respects to the master of Zhenwu Temple. I sincerely wish to worship at Bamianshan, serve the master, and practice the way of Zhenwu. I beg for your help."

As soon as he finished speaking, the gate opened by itself.

Ji Kaiming saw a Taoist boy sitting in the Taoist temple in the courtyard. He looked like a ten-year-old child, delicate and delicate, but his aura was even taller and more majestic than the Eight-sided Mountain. He only took a glance at him and did not dare to look again, and kowtowed heavily.

"I beg the master to help me."
