Chapter 201 Xuan Qing Transforms into a God
Xu Heng returned from a long trip, so he should pay a visit to his teacher.
However, it was not dignified after all the travel and dust, so Xu Heng returned to Yutaifeng to rest for the night.
The next day, Xu Hengjing came out of concentration, and the ray of mysterious incense had burned out. He dipped a stick in pure water, gently shook it and sprinkled it on his body, then changed into a loose Taoist robe, and then left the cave and headed towards Xuanzhao Peak. .
Xu Heng has been traveling away from the mountain for more than ten years, but the scenery on Xuanzhao Peak has remained unchanged. After knocking on Master Qiao's cave, Tang Zhi, the flower fairy, opened the door. Seeing Xu Heng face to face, she bowed slightly and spoke softly. He said: "I wonder why anyone came to visit today. It turns out that the young master has returned to the mountain."
"Miss Tangzhi." Xu Heng cupped his hands and asked, "I am returning from a long journey and want to pay a visit to my mentor. I wonder if my mentor is at home?"
Tang Zhi smiled slightly and said: "The master has been in seclusion for a long time, but today his thoughts suddenly appeared. I think it has been a long time ago. I don't know when the young master will come."
After saying this, he led Xu Heng inward.
Xu Heng followed Miss Tang Zhi around the familiar corridor and came to the hall, where he saw Qiao Cheng already sitting upright with his eyes slightly closed as if to rest his mind.
Xu Heng straightened his robes slightly, stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Disciple Xu Heng, I would like to pay my respects to my mentor."
Qiao Cheng opened his eyes slightly, looking from top to bottom, slowly scanning Xu Heng's body, and then nodded lightly.
Xu Heng originally thought that Qiao Cheng would ask first about what he had seen and learned during his trip, his progress in cultivation, or the current situation of Master Xuan Xin, etc. However, Qiao Cheng did not expect Qiao Cheng to look away and only said: "It's good to come back safely."
Xu Heng was slightly startled and then said: "Yes, disciple... returned to the mountain in good condition, with my teacher's concern."
Qiao Cheng then showed a very faint smile, but he stopped it immediately, flicked the fly whisk, and asked, "Have you ever neglected your homework?"
"No." Xu Heng replied: "I have accumulated a lot of questions along the way, and I would like to ask my teacher for help."
"Just say it." Qiao Cheng agreed lightly, and Xu Heng asked about the doubts in his mind. Qiao Cheng broke them down for him one by one. It actually took him two hours to get rid of Xu Heng's confusion.
It can be seen that Xu Heng has accumulated a lot of problems in more than ten years. However, there is a saying that wise people worry too much, and the same applies to practitioners.
If a practitioner does not have sufficient insights into Taoism, many times he will not even have doubts, and he will go astray without even realizing it.
Qiao Cheng finished explaining the Taoism and said, "Not bad."
Xu Heng knew that Qiao Cheng was actually quite satisfied with his performance, so he smiled and said, "Thank you, master, for the compliment."
Qiao Cheng didn't say much, and just asked: "Are you still confused?"
Xu Heng thought about it for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I can't understand it anymore."
Unexpectedly, when Qiao Cheng heard this, he flicked the fly whisk and said calmly: "That's it, go ahead."
Xu Heng was surprised, but since Master Qiao really didn't want to ask any more questions, Xu Heng could only salute again, then turned around and left.
But before he left the side hall, Qiao Cheng suddenly called out softly: "Wait a minute."
Xu Heng turned around respectfully, waiting for Qiao Cheng to speak, but he remained silent for a moment before saying, "You just returned to the mountain, and you didn't know that Xuan Qing had already transformed into a spirit."
"Come out in the form of a god!" Xu Heng was shocked: "Senior Brother Xuanqing?"
"That's right." Qiao Cheng said: "Xuan Qing has transformed into a god. For the time being, our Tianchi sect has no gold elixir monks who have reached the third level."
Xu Heng's eyes moved slightly, and he heard Qiao Cheng say lightly: "You should encourage me."
"Go." After saying that, Qiao Cheng waved his sleeve, turning into a wisp of energy and disappearing into the side hall. …
Xu Heng came out of Master Qiao's cave, still thoughtful.
Senior Brother Xuanqing has actually transformed into a god, passed the level of 'Refining God and Returning to the Void', and joined the ranks of great monks.
This news was naturally shocking, but it was the deep meaning of Master Qiao's words that really made Xu Heng fall into deep thought.
"That's all." After a long time, he came back to his senses and shook his head: "No matter what, I just want to practice diligently."
Xu Heng didn't want to worry about this, so he cleared his mind and pressed it down.
Looking up, it is still snowing today, but it is not difficult to see that the sun has not yet reached its peak.
The pace in the mountains is really relaxing and one day seems to last quite a long time.
Xu Heng had a change of thought. Since he left the cave today, he simply walked around the door and visited some friends to see how they had changed. If there was still time, he might as well go to the library and see what happened. There are new Taoist books….
But thinking about this, Xu Heng remembered something again, so he summoned a ball of flames and turned it into a fire cloud, then flew into the sky. Soon, a majestic peak with no snow cover and red rocky soil came into view.
There is no other such unique scenery in Tianchi Mountain except Danding Peak.
It turns out that when Xu Heng was in the East China Sea, he promised Wei Gong for sword refining. If he returned to the mountain, he would bring the sword pills to Uncle Tongtai for a look.
Although there is no time limit on this matter, no matter how long Xu Heng delays it, or even directly breaks his promise and breaks the contract, it doesn't seem to matter.
But after all, he was not that tempered, so after thinking about it, he decided to go to Danding Peak first to fulfill this agreement.
Xu Heng arrived at Danding Peak and even the Sifang Palace was already familiar with the journey. He quickly lowered the fire cloud, took the letter talisman and threw it into the palace door.
After a while, a Taoist boy popped up and saw Xu Heng waiting here. He quickly straightened his clothes and asked, "Is it the letter talisman cast by senior brother?"
"Exactly." Xu Heng said: "I want to see Master Tongtai, please let me know."
Xu Heng has been away from the mountain capital for more than ten years, and the Taoist boy in the Sifang Hall is no longer the familiar face. He hesitated for a while before saying: "I dare to ask my senior brother's name and why he wants to see me, so that Tong'er can report it to him." ”
"Xu Heng is a poor man." Xu Heng replied: "As for why I asked to see my uncle, it is actually because I was entrusted by someone..."
He briefly explained the cause and effect to the Taoist boy. The Taoist boy carefully remembered it in his heart and then said: "In this case, please wait a moment, senior brother."
Xu Heng agreed, and the Taoist boy hurriedly entered the door. Unexpectedly, he would be there for half a day, until the sun set and the moon rose, and the stars hung in the sky. Come with me."
Xu Heng didn't ask any more questions, and followed the Taoist boy into the palace gate. On the way, the Taoist boy explained: "The master is refining elixirs during the day, and the boy does not dare to disturb him without permission..."
Xu Heng just smiled slightly and replied: "It doesn't matter."
The Taoist boy breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly led Xu Heng straight to the side hall. As expected, he saw that the alchemy furnace in the hall was really burning, and a young Taoist priest was carefully controlling the heat.
Taoist Tongtai sat upright, still looking cold, with his eyes slightly closed.
Xu Heng stepped into the palace and saluted Taoist Tongtai before he said calmly: "If you want to present something to me, just sacrifice it."
