Chapter 669: Small Meeting, True Teachings

hum~
Strands of light golden magic power flow through the meridians, bones, blood, and even the Niwan Palace, sometimes converging in the acupoints and sometimes gathering in the Dantian.

Or it can transform into Kun, swallowing and exhaling in Dantian; or it can transform into Peng, moving vertically and horizontally in the acupoints throughout the body.

The magic power is unrestrained and flows naturally within the divine body.

Li Yuan only felt a sense of perfection and completeness surging from his soul and heart, making him feel as if he had made up for his shortcomings and improved himself.

There are two major leaps in the state of unity.

The first is to cultivate the first magical power, which is a huge transformation from nothing to something. The second is the last magical power, which is round and perfect.

Any fundamental law, no matter it is a scripture or a sutra, or even the "Tao", in this state of unity, can only cultivate a maximum of ninety-nine magical powers.

"The unity is complete."

Li Yuan exuded a sense of satisfaction from the inside out:

"This is the benefit of piling up talents. It's hard at first and easy later. That's it!"

From eighty mana to eighty-one mana, it was a difficult hurdle for ordinary cultivators, but he did not notice the existence of the bottleneck, and it was accomplished naturally.

The benefits of god-demon-level talents are demonstrated at this moment, but it is far from reaching the bottom.

Why did the Origin Divine Dynasty call the seventh-level talent divine and demonic?

There is no other reason. For those who possess such talents, there are almost no insurmountable bottlenecks before the sixth realm. The reason why it is said to be almost is because when advancing to the sixth realm, one needs to go through the catastrophe.

He has divine and demonic talents, and is even called a quasi-god in many sects in different realms.

"According to what is written in the book, a god-devil-level talent, whether it is innate or acquired through fate, will give birth to a body that is close to the Tao..."

While feeling happy, Li Yuan couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Concerning the divine and devil-level talents, many classic books in Dongxuan Mountain describe them in greater detail, and collectively refer to the physical constitution that cultivators with divine and devil-level talents will inevitably develop as the 'near path body'.

To break it down, it is what most cultivators understand as the 'Dharma body', 'divine body', 'demon body', 'holy body', etc.

If we further subdivide it, there are the divine body, the primordial spirit body, the lunar divine body, the solar divine body, and so on.

"The Enlightened Body of the Dragon Demon Taoist should be called the 'Enlightened Holy Body' to be more precise. It is one of the rarest of all physiques..."

Thinking of the Dragon Demon Taoist, Li Yuan couldn't help but complain in his heart.

In the Bafang Temple in the past, the ray of divine power left by the old Taoist priest mistakenly thought that his control and blessing were a kind of strange physique.

It is also named as Mangniu Body...

"All gods and demons have physical qualities. There's no reason why I should be special, right?"

Li Yuan let out a long sigh and stopped wasting time.

It is good to have physical constitution and the like, but if you don’t have it, then you should find out the reason.

No matter how difficult it is, can it be more difficult than pushing your average or lower-level bones to the level of gods and demons step by step?
"Om~"

Li Yuan's mind turned slightly, and he entered the Niwan Divine Realm.

More than two years is not a short or long time. He has perfected his practice and cultivated 81 kinds of magic power. The unity of essence, energy and spirit is naturally improved simultaneously. Not to mention his physique, the change of his spiritual realm is also natural.

He looked up, but what he saw was no longer the endless ocean as before, but a large island located in the middle of the sea.

On the island, there are towering trees that are as tall as ninety-nine feet. The trunks of the trees are as dark as jade, but there are strands of purple lines all over their bodies. They cover the island and make it lush and green.

From one tree comes a forest.

The spirit of Kunpeng no longer lurks in the sea as before. Most of the time, it transforms into a golden-winged Peng bird and lives among the branches and leaves, and even builds a rather large nest.

At this moment, he is combing his feathers in the nest, but in fact, he is practicing the 'Taiyin Sword Qi'.

During the two years, Li Yuan made great progress in the four magic spells he learned, which was reflected in his spiritual appearance. The feathers of the Peng bird were actually full of Taiyin sword energy.

Under the tree, the originally huge nine-headed snake skin seemed a little small, not only because the black vine tree was growing bigger, but also because the snake skin had become smaller.

"It's faster than expected, 25% less. At this rate, it may take another seven or eight years to completely digest it."

Li Yuan climbed onto the island and stroked the giant tree. He could feel the joy of the Black Vine Tree as well as the changes taking place within the tree.

"What will come out of it?"

Li Yuan felt a little expectant and a little satisfied.

The growth of cultivation can be clearly felt in the body, but it is more intuitive and clear in the spiritual realm.

The expansion of the divine realm, the expansion of the island, the growth of the black vine tree, and even the golden-winged Peng bird became more lively and agile... these were all the results of his practice.

How can you not be happy?

"The only thing that is not going well is the Green Emperor's magic power..."

Li Yuan felt a little regretful again.

With the help of five black vine snake skins, he practiced the Qingdi Longevity Sutra with almost no troubles or difficulties.

But in order to condense the first bit of magic power, divine patterns are indispensable.

Over the past two years, he has been concentrating on refining the technique, but Little Mirage Dragon has been going out every now and then, carrying the gourd Taoist soldier who has reached the third level and rushing around to collect scenery and make rubbings.

However, there are no top-grade divine patterns produced in the Dongxuan Realm. Although all other types of divine patterns have been collected, without the core nine top-grade divine patterns, it is impossible to refine the magic power of the Green Emperor.

The growth of the Black Vine Snake is also limited to ninety-nine feet and cannot increase any further.

"Of the nine kinds of top-grade divine patterns, six are available in the several immortal cities of Tianshiyuan. Although the price is high, it's not that bad. As for the other three, it's a bit troublesome. I wonder if other brothers have them?"

In the bamboo building, Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes.

"Congratulations to the master for his great achievements!"

On the balcony, the small white gourd swayed gently, congratulating with great joy. It felt the extremely pure magic power of its master, which had faintly exceeded the scope of medium-grade magic power.

"Watch and enjoy!"

Li Yuan stretched out his finger and sent out a magical power.

Woo~
The moment the magic power left his body, his merits and deeds could be seen. Golden light filled the bamboo building, there was a faint sound of tides spreading, and there was a faint fragrance of plants in his mouth and nose.

"Thank you, Master!"

The little white gourd swallowed up the magic power in one gulp, feeling extremely happy.

"Come with me for a walk."

Li Yuan casually hung the small gourd around his waist and walked out of the bamboo building.

There have also been some changes in the small cave.

The mountain where the bamboo building is located has a bit of the flavor of a fairy cave. Outside the bamboo building, all the way to the mountainside, there are lush and green magical bamboos and herbs, and there are also magical birds singing.

Spiritual springs were led down the mountain to irrigate the three hundred acres of spiritual fields, which were already of considerable size. Three hundred acres was not a lot, but it was barely enough for Li Yuan alone.

Inside and outside the spiritual field, there are spirit puppets working.

Apart from the two gourd Taoist soldiers, Dao Master Li, who was not well-off, did not purchase any more Taoist soldiers, but he still bought more than 30 spirit puppets for working, to tend the spirit fields and cultivate the mountains.

"Squeak~"

The little mouse poked its head out of the hole and shouted twice, congratulating its master. Then it retreated back into the hole and immersed itself in digesting the Transcendent Pill.

A few days ago, unable to resist the little thing's desperate requests, Li Yuan took it to see the Black Vine Snake. After seeing its 'little friend' that was nearly a hundred feet away, the little mouse was deeply shocked and never left the cave again.

I vowed to enter the Tao.

"It will take this little mouse thirty-two years to become a Taoist."

Li Yuan calculated with his fingers and understood clearly.

He was counting on his fingers with a magic he had practiced two years ago, called 'Qingdi Yan', which was a method of hidden form divination in Qingdi's Changsheng Sutra.

Since he practiced this magic, he would pinch his fingers from time to time, which could be considered as practicing magic.

In fact, the practice of this magic is entirely based on the Qing Emperor's Longevity Sutra. Due to the growth of the black vine tree, he was able to easily get into the door after gathering the magic patterns. However, since he did not have the magic power of the Qing Emperor, it was difficult for him to make progress after getting started.

"Huh~"

On the gas-gathering platform, the small black gourd was 'huffing and puffing' as it gathered the Nine Smoke Divine Patterns.

After Li Yuan spent a lot of effort to advance to the third realm, the speed of collecting scenery with this small gourd has increased a lot, and it can collect three sets of Nine Smoke Divine Patterns in a month.

Although his appetite increased greatly and he needed to expend an extra mana for each meal, Li Yuan was relatively satisfied.

There was no other reason. Even if he didn't do much rituals and practice, but just nurtured it on a daily basis, Jiuyanluo had already developed the ninth-level forbidden weapon, which was promoted to a top-grade magic weapon, and his escape speed increased dramatically.

"It's your reward!"

After the small gourd had collected all the divine patterns and swayed in greeting, Li Yuan flicked his fingers and two streams of magical powers entered the gourd, causing the latter to exclaim "Ouch" and kowtow repeatedly.

"Let's continue with the scene selection."

After taking away the divine pattern picked from the black-skinned small gourd, Li Yuan left with satisfaction. He did not leave this small cave directly, but went to the neighboring mountain.

This mountain was only a dozen miles away from his residence and was quite desolate. There was not a single blade of grass growing on the mountain or on the foot of the mountain. Later, he chose it as a place for the White Bone Taoist soldiers to eat.

"Kaka~"

From a distance, Li Yuan could hear the teeth-aching chewing sounds.

A group of sturdy bone demons squatted among the mountains of various bones and ate with big mouthfuls. The bone demon who had just been promoted to the third realm a few days ago had a huge appetite and had been eating for seven or eight days.

"Come!"

After the Skeleton Demons finished eating, Li Yuan waved his hand, and the twelve Skeleton Demons, which were already somewhat silver, turned into bone chains and fell into his hands.

"Twelve is still too few. If we can gather thirty-six, any cultivator at the third level of cultivation can be defeated with just the Dao soldiers. Unfortunately, they are too expensive."

When receiving the entry benefits, Li Yuan had already guessed that these skeleton demons would not be cheap.

In fact, it was really not cheap, and Li Xuanyong was not very willing to sell it.

"I have already learned the magic of the Skeleton Man. At worst, I can practice it myself!"

Turning gently, feeling the Bone Demon's icy breath, Li Yuan had an idea and walked out slowly.

……

There are no ordinary disciples among the Dongxuan Mountain.

No matter if they were just nominal students or auditors, at least for Li Yuan, who joined the school the latest, none of the brothers who were at the peak of the third realm were weak.

The Dongxuan Mountain is a very loose organization, and most of the disciples follow their own ways. They only gather together for a short time when the Taoist Master preaches and when the true disciples give lectures.

However, the Taoist priests' lectures were irregular, sometimes only once every hundred years or even several hundred years, whereas the lectures of the true disciples were relatively fixed, with one of them giving a lecture every twenty years.

When Li Yuan walked out of his own little cave, he met two senior brothers. After nodding to them, they followed him up the mountain.

Soon, he arrived at the 'Small Cave for Teachings' with 999 steps, which was the fixed place for teachings.

This small cave is very small, covering an area of ​​only a few thousand miles. It is smaller than the first-level fighting arena in the fighting hall, but the environment is quite good.

There are mountains, water, and also magical birds and plants.

The place where the true teachings were preached was a quiet valley with a high white jade platform. Below the platform were many cushions, the same number as all the disciples.

"It's so lively."

From a distance, Li Yuan saw dozens or even hundreds of fellow students gathered outside the valley, which was considered a grand event.

"Junior Brother Li."

Li Xuanyong arrived early and was talking to someone outside the valley. When he saw Li Yuan, he bowed and greeted him.

"Li Yuan?"

"The youngest junior fellow who entered the room!"

As soon as Li Xuanyong opened his mouth, the people outside the valley looked over with curiosity and scrutiny.

"Li Yuan greets all the senior brothers and sisters."

Li Yuan was not shy and bowed. Everyone, regardless of their thoughts, returned the greeting.

"Brother Li, what is this?"

Li Yuan walked closer and saw Li Xuanyong setting up a stall with bone tokens on it.

"The Skeleton Black Armor Warrior and the Skeleton Sword..."

Li Xuanyong said, shaking a gourd on the stall: "As for this gourd, it contains the blood of the Nightmare Hydra. Are you interested, Junior Brother?"

"Nightmare Hydra blood?"

Li Yuan pretended to be surprised and asked: "What kind of spiritual beast is this?"

"A strange beast from Guixu, extremely rare and ferocious, its blood has many magical uses..."

Li Xuanyong explained, and when he saw a guest coming forward, he bowed to Li Yuan and went to entertain him.

"Nightmare Hydra Blood..."

Li Yuan took a deep look at the gourd, but did not disturb Li Xuanyong anymore. Instead, he looked at the stalls outside the valley.

Before the true teachings are delivered, there will usually be a small exchange meeting outside the valley, where all the disciples of Dongxuan Mountain will briefly exchange what they have and what they have, which may last for three to five days, or seven to eight days.

Li Yuan came here just to try his luck. When he took a quick look, he was so attracted by the dazzling lights that he couldn't take his eyes away.

Anything that can attract the attention of the disciples of Dongxuan Mountain and be displayed must be an extraordinary item.

"There are a lot of good things here, I wonder if there are any top-grade divine patterns?"

Li Yuan's eyes lit up and he walked towards the nearest stall.
