Chapter 138 Immortal (Happy New Year everyone!)
More than a year has passed, and some things in the clan have been settled.
One after another, naturally, a total of twelve people announced to retreat, and Fang Weimin, who was the first to retreat, has already left the retreat.
Among these twelve people, the only one who caused some disturbance was Lu Duxing, the deputy headmaster of Yujingfeng, who announced that he had fetal movement and wanted to go into seclusion. He asked the headmaster to resign as deputy leader and devote himself to Taoism.
If a monk in the Four Realms has fetal movement, it means that there is a change in the Nascent Soul Dao Fetus. This change cannot be said to be good or bad. It may be that the Dao Fetus is unstable, or it may be that there is an opportunity to merge with the Dao. No one can say for sure.
Fetal movement is a big deal, so the master naturally agrees and lets him practice quietly and peacefully.
This position of deputy headmaster was vacant, and it was the extremely important deputy headmaster of Yujingfeng. Therefore, the former deputy headmaster of Chunyang Palace, Shi Tongxuan, who had also announced his resignation due to fetal movement, was out again and temporarily replaced the deputy headmaster of Yujingfeng. To teach, the peak master of Yuxu Peak is especially assisted by Xu.
As for the deputy leader of Chunyang Palace, he is still vacant and will be taken over by the deputy leader of Yuanyin Palace.
In addition to Lu Duxing, more than half of the twelve people were in the Golden Core realm. Among them, the one with the highest status is Pang Jingyu, the deputy mountain master of Baihu Mountain.
Naturally, Cheng Xinzhan could not find out about these matters. It was on this day that Master Tianji suddenly came to Meiji Mountain to find him and specifically told him.
He asked,
"Master, have the important secrets of Sanqing Mountain been leaked?"
Headmaster Ji Hehe nodded painfully,
"Longhu Mountain already knows about the ginseng fruit. Lu Duxing personally told Zhang Tianshi when you were attending the Longhu Dharma Assembly. As for other secrets, many have been revealed in bits and pieces over the past hundreds of years. I have already Let Tongxuan preside over the adjustment of the mountain protection formation.”
Cheng Xinzhan was shocked. He really didn't expect that the person who was sealed could reach the level of Master Lu.
"What about those people?"
he asked.
Ji Hehe frowned and said,
"These people are all yearning for Longhu Mountain, but they are not completely the puppets of Longhu Mountain. Sanqing Mountain treats them well. This is also engraved in their ghosts. Their biggest wish before was that Sanqing Mountain and Sanqing Mountain be together. Longhushan has always been friends and has become an alliance of brothers. They have never thought of selling all Sanqingshan, so these people cannot be killed easily."
"What about claiming to be in seclusion?"
"They have all been sent to the Secret Realm of the Three Pure Heavens. If the time is short, the mark on the ghost spirit will be washed away if the level is low. If the time is long, if the level is high, the soul will be broken and recast."
Cheng Xinzhan frowned. Zongli's vitality was seriously damaged this time. It was not easy to cultivate a person in the Golden Core realm. The better he performed at the Dragon and Tiger Ceremony, the more worrying he was now.
"However, I have contacted the masters of Gezao Mountain, Bingfeng Mountain and Xishan to inform them of this matter and asked them to eliminate the hidden danger. With this incident, Longhu Mountain has become the target of public criticism. It is Shenxiao. The faction has always respected Longhu Mountain, but this time Longhu Mountain is trying to seize human rights, which even Bingfengshan is determined not to tolerate
"Misfortune depends on blessing, and misfortune lies on it. Longhu Mountain digs its own grave. Once this happens, it may not be a bad thing for our Yuzhang Taoist sect. But the time here needs to be controlled well. First, there is the battle between Tao and demons. , then the Eastern Dao and the Western Xuan Legal System, and finally the internal strife of the Yuzhang Dao Sect. If this order is not grasped well, it will be a good thing and a bad thing.
"And once Longhu Mountain is in danger and the ginseng fruit issue is brought up, Bingfeng Mountain, Xishan, and Gezao Mountain may turn against each other again. At that time, it may not be Yuzhang's internal affairs, but all the sects and sects in the world will come. I’m just joining in the fun, so I can’t offend Longhushan before I’m fully prepared. Before that, Zhang Tianshi wants to steal the ginseng fruit, so he will definitely keep it secret.”
Cheng Xinzhan felt dizzy after hearing these words. The matter was far more complicated than he thought. However, as the saying goes, people who have no long-term worries must have immediate worries. What the leader said makes sense, and you really need to make plans in advance.
It’s just that after listening to it, he didn’t ask about the word Sanqingtian Secret Realm, which he had never heard before. He just asked,
"Master Tongxuan has been transferred to Yujing Peak, what about Wufu Mountain?"
Ji Hehe heard this and said, "You don't have to worry about this. There is an immortal coming to the secret realm of Sanqingtian. I am here today to lead you to visit him."
Cheng Xinzhan was stunned when he heard this, "Immortal?"
Ji Hehe nodded, "The situation in the heaven is complicated now, and it is not uncommon for immortals to stay in this world. As you have seen, not to mention loose immortals and earth immortals, the owner of Huanzhu Tower is just a heavenly immortal, and he doesn't want to ascend."
Cheng Xinzhan had doubts in his heart, so he asked,
"Master, if you don't want to do something like ascension, don't you just do it?"
Ji Hehe smiled. He came here today just to talk to Cheng Xinzhan about these things.
During this time, he had been busy dealing with the affairs of the people who had been sealed, and had no time to take care of Cheng Xinzhan. When the matter was settled, he inquired and found out that Cheng Xinzhan was cultivating his mind and character and had put his practice on hold.
This made Ji Hehe extremely happy.
He was happier than Cheng Xinzhan's last two South Dou Rankings.
Only those who are lofty-minded and look forward to the future can not be anxious about the speed of their steps. Process and accumulation are very important. Those who are eager for success will have difficulty in passing the golden elixir tribulation, let alone giving birth to the Tao fetus and the world of harmony.
So after he heard about it, he made a special trip to talk to Cheng Xinzhan about these things. If he knew about the major events in the sect earlier, he should not be limited to the individual, but should look at the sect, the legal system and even the world. As for destroying people's path and destroying There is no need to fight or kill people because of their Dharma lineage. There are more vicious methods.
The purpose of discussing immortals is naturally to put Cheng Xinzhan's eyes on the immortal realm. It is to let him know that immortals are not far away. With a higher realm in his eyes, his mentality can reach a higher level before he can deliver. Something bigger.
"Immortals are divided into four categories: Loose Immortals, Corpse Interpretation Immortals, Earth Immortals, and Heavenly Immortals. When the five realms are combined, it is necessary to determine the path of immortality. The combination of heaven and earth is the heavenly immortal. . To become an immortal, one must overcome tribulations. Heavenly immortals and zombie immortals will ascend to heaven after completing their tribulations. Only earthly immortals will remain in the human world after completing their tribulations.
"If the Heavenly Immortal Tribulation has not passed, as long as one breath is left, you can transform into a Loose Immortal. If the Loose Immortal remains in the human world, you need to go through the Loose Immortal Tribulation again. Only after the ninth transformation is completed, you can regain the status of a Heavenly Immortal. But as long as you have not passed it once, you can become a Loose Immortal." It's the death of the body and the disappearance of the Tao.
"If the Earthly Immortal Tribulation has not passed, as long as one breath is left, one can turn into a Ghost Immortal. However, a Ghost Immortal cannot be considered a true Immortal, and there is no chance of returning to the Immortal Path, so he is not among the Four Immortals. As long as his longevity is reached, he will become a Ghost Immortal.
"As long as the immortal tribulation of corpse dissolution has not passed, he will die on the spot immediately, without any room for maneuver.
"So in terms of retreat, people divide the four immortals into four levels. The heavenly immortals are higher than the earth immortals, higher than the corpse-dissolving immortals, and higher than the loose immortals. But in terms of magic power, there is no distinction between the four."
Cheng Xinzhan nodded, that's it.
"After the Heavenly Immortal and the Corpse Realm survive the tribulation, the heavenly gate opens and they can enter the heaven. However, after becoming immortals, the Heavenly Immortal and the Corpse Realm can still descend to the realm, but their magic power will be suppressed and they cannot stay for a long time. If they stay for a long time, the pure Qi on their bodies will It will be eroded by the earth's energy, which can lead to the decline of the gods and humans, and the worst to fall into decline."
"But the Earth Immortals and Loose Immortals will never be able to pass through the Heavenly Gate and ascend to the Heavenly Realm. However, there is still a chance for the Loose Immortals to turn around, while the Earth Immortals need to stay in the human world forever.
"So from the perspective of freedom, some people think that the heavenly immortals are higher than the zombie immortals, higher than the loose immortals, and higher than the earthly immortals."
"So no matter how you look at it, heavenly immortals are the optimal solution. This is why everyone wants to become heavenly immortals, but it is the most difficult to merge with heavenly secrets in the five realms. How many people have not been able to merge with Taoism until their life span is exhausted. Tianji, so this also requires a choice.
Cheng Xinzhan suddenly realized.
"Xinzhan, if you think about it carefully, this point is not only reflected in choosing the path of immortality, but also in every realm before becoming an immortal. If you go fast in one realm, your understanding of the five elements will be poor, but if you go well in one realm, Slowly, the lifespan is also being depleted. If you are in the second realm, the quality of the elixir will be poor. environment, want If the quality of the golden elixir is poor, then the way forward will be blocked and no further progress can be made. However, if the quality of the golden elixir is too good, the more calamities the elixir will undergo, the more lifespan will be wasted, and the day may not be able to wait for the birth of a Tao fetus. . The four realms and the five realms are all the same, so you have to think clearly about every step you take, and you must be clear about your direction, and you must always keep an eye on the life wheel in your Jiang Palace.”
If Cheng Xinzhan realized something, he saluted Ji Hehe,
"Thank you, Master, for your advice." After thinking about it, he asked again,
"I wonder who the senior who came to take charge of Wufu Mountain is?"
"Celestial Immortal, that is my master, a good person. When you get to the place, you just call me Qu Zu. There is a secret realm in the cave in Sanqing Mountain, which can conceal the secrets of heaven and extend the time of the existence of the Celestial Immortal and Zhijie Immortal."
Cheng Xinzhan said yes.
So, Headmaster Ji used the Void Technique, crossed over in one step, and took Cheng Xinzhan to Wufu Mountain.
This time, he was led by the great monk from the fifth realm.
This time, I didn't feel dizzy at all.
When they arrived at the ginseng seedlings, they saw a Taoist sitting in the tent built by Master Tongxuan.
The Taoist looks middle-aged, has a kind face, linen clothes and mango shoes, and has five crowns on his head. He is playing with a pair of yin and yang rings in his palms.
Ji Hehe brought Cheng Xinzhan forward and called him master.
Cheng Xinzhan leaned over and bowed,
"Disciples are looking forward to seeing Qu Zu."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Qu Xian looked at Cheng Xinzhan and saw that his aura was restrained, his foundation was solid, and his complexion was rosy and shiny. Looking closer, he saw that there were five colors of light intertwined into a group on his chest. This was a sign of good health and fruitful practice. .
Quxian nodded, with a smile on his face,
"I have heard about you, good boy, you have made great contributions to the sect."
Cheng Xinzhan didn't even dare.
"You're in the second realm, right? Let's take a look, Rong Laodao, and see what's missing. Well, there are a few acupoints that have been opened. You have to work hard. Why haven't all the seven apertures on the face been opened yet? This is not good. Look at your eyes, there is yang on the left and yin on the right. The yang palace looks pretty good. Why is there no movement in the yin palace? Come on, the old Taoist will give you a pupil technique. You can open the yin palace with this secret pupil refining method, which just happens to be the same as your yang palace. Match.”
Without waiting for Cheng Xinzhan to say anything, Qu Xian stretched out his hand, and a flash of spiritual light rushed into Cheng Xinzhan's Zi Mansion. When he looked inside, he found that it was a piece of pupil magic.
"This pupil technique is called "The Blue Eyes of the God that illuminates the secluded world", also known as the Judge's Eye. According to legend, it was first obtained from the Judge of the Ancient Underworld. After being refined, one can see every detail of a cow from across a mountain, and the pulse from across a distance of soil is accurate, and can also Insight into the spirit of the soul has the effect of defeating ghosts."
The ancestor had already taught the Dharma and could not tolerate Cheng Xinzhan's refusal, so he had no choice but to bow and thank him again.
"Hehe, what position does this child have in the sect?"
Quxian looked at Ji Hehe again.
Ji Hehe replied, "Xinzhan has entered the second realm for the first time, and there are no arrangements yet."
Qu Xian waved his hand, with a hint of blame in his words, "What about the second realm? The juniors are capable, but you don't know how to add to the burden. I think so."
Ji Hehe immediately bowed his head and obeyed the order.
"There has always been a position of White Tiger Envoy in the Correction Department of the Police Mansion. I think it is very suitable for Xinzhan. The judge's eyesight is very good, and it is also very suitable for him to practice eye skills. As for offending people, there is no harm in being younger and waiting for the next position. It’s hard to do it if it’s too high, what do you think?”
"The disciple feels it is excellent."
Ji Hehe responded, then looked at Cheng Xinzhan and asked,
"Xinzhan, is there no problem?"
He marveled at the courage of his master. The White Tiger Envoy's robes and salary were vested in the Baihu Mountain Patrol Office, but his authority far exceeded Baihu Mountain. Looking at the entire Sanqing Mountain, it was extremely special.
From the named disciples to the five sect leaders, the White Tiger Envoy can criticize the culprits for their mistakes and make corrections. They can also assign people from the Yingyuan Mansion and the Jie Mansion to lock up the culprits and either confine them or torture them.
Moreover, in addition to the power of inspection, the White Tiger Envoy can also access almost all the files and classics in the sect, and can freely enter and exit the restricted areas within the sect.
Because it is too special, although Sanqing Mountain has this position, few people have ever performed it. Even if they have performed it, it is mostly the deputy leader of Chunyang Palace or the master of Baihu Mountain. It has never been awarded to a second-level disciple.
If he wants to push this matter forward, there will be considerable resistance, but now that the ancestor has spoken, he just needs to go with the flow.
Cheng Xinzhan didn't know what the White Tiger Envoy meant yet, but he knew what the Correction Department did. Supervising fellow sect members was a very important job, but no one was willing to do it. This White Tiger Envoy should be similar.
But at this time Qu Zu and the headmaster both looked over. He couldn't just enjoy himself in the mountains and not work, so he should just accept it. Qu Zu was right. While he was still young, he would serve as a picket for a period of time and then retire. , and no one should hold a grudge.
So he cupped his hands and said,
"Disciples must abide by the law."
Qu Xian and the Headmaster both laughed.
Then Quxian reminded Cheng Xinzhan of some spiritual matters, and Ji Hehe left Wufu Mountain with Cheng Xinzhan.
Before leaving, Cheng Xinzhan took a special look at the seedling. It could be said that it was growing well. It had already produced two leaves and was half a foot tall.
————
After leaving Wufu Mountain, Ji Hehe asked Cheng Xinzhan if he knew what the White Tiger Envoy was.
Cheng Xinzhan looked back at him. Aren't his fellow disciples in the Jiu Fen Department all White Tiger Envoys?
He rarely inquires about the Department of Justice.
Ji Hehe laughed loudly when he heard this. After laughing, he told him the duties of the White Tiger Envoy.
Cheng Xinzhan was stunned.
Ji Hehe also said that since the sect had given the White Tiger Envoy such great authority and convenience, the evaluation of the White Tiger Envoy was naturally high. During the performance report, it was necessary to examine how many times the White Tiger Envoy had been stabbed and how many people he had dealt with. If he neglected his duties, Not only was he dismissed from his post, he was also fined.
Cheng Xinzhan begged the head teacher to take back his orders.
Ji Hehe laughed, "This is the Immortal's decree! I'm looking forward to seeing you and go back to the mountain to wait for the appointment. Take advantage of the last rest time. I will inform the mountains of the Immortal's decree soon."
