Chapter 179 Going to the Central Plains
"Is it possible that if I don't have these problems, my trip to the Central Plains will be smooth sailing?"
Chu Tai asked back, Feiquan and Mingxia shook their heads at the same time.
“Compared to the hundreds of countries in the Eastern Land, the situation in the Central Plains is more complicated. In other words, the rich are more expensive and the poor are poorer. Although on the surface there is peace and harmony, there are countless overt and covert struggles behind the scenes.”
After Divine Lord Mingxia pointed out the problem of the Central Plains, he hesitated and said: "Two hundred years ago, there were several forces in the Central Plains who wanted to use the dynasty to expand outwards. Among them, those who expanded to the Eastern Territory Part of it was blocked by several sects of our Taiyi lineage.”
Upon hearing this, Chu Tai immediately understood what was the biggest obstacle to his journey to the Central Plains.
He asked for the names of those forces.
“You don’t need to worry about most of the stray forces. The four most famous ones at that time were the Xuanmo Yunmen family, the Zhendong Xiao family, the Natural Sect, and the Xiu Ziya family.”
Mingxia then introduced several forces in detail: "Xuanmo Yunmen's lineage is quite special. Their lineage can be regarded as the inheritance of ancient sages. They specialize in the art of ingenuity. Their cultivation level is not high, but The methods are good, there are many unique treasures, and they are also a faction that is closely related to the dynasty."
"The Xiao family in Zhendong is a very rare family in the Central Plains that specializes in military training. It has inherited guns, The second bow technique is extraordinary, especially the skill of divine shooting. There are records of killing fifth-grade fire immortals and forcing fourth-grade heavenly beings to retreat.”
"The Natural Sect is partial to Immortal Martial Arts. The Patriarch was fortunate enough to hear the sermons of the True Lord Hunyuan. He regarded the True Lord as the Patriarch and passed down the Hunyuan Phaseless Kung Fu for thousands of years. It emphasizes holding on to the emptiness as if it is full. When the emptiness is achieved, the emptiness can be transformed, and the emptiness can be transformed into the surplus. , between the emptiness and the emptiness, it evolves endlessly."
"Xiu Ziya is the most special. Its method is between the side sect and the true method. It has been passed down for more than three thousand years and has ascended in every dynasty. There are very few people who have attained enlightenment in the human world, and most of them are fifth-grade people who have attained the superior Taoist fruit of Sanxian, and then ascended to heaven.” Expanding influence, while converging on some other sect’s methods and perfecting his own inheritance, but your Jinhua lineage predecessors destroyed the treasure of the town sect, and the previous cliff master was also forced to ascend early.”
Chu Taiting. He frowned repeatedly. Similar enemies, Taoist Fuguang, had confessed to Chu Tai back then, but he had never heard of this Xiu Ziya lineage, and couldn't help but ask for the specific reason.
Also a little strange is Feiquan Shenjun. He has never heard what Mingxia said at this moment, so he couldn't help but ask.
"As far as I know, the previous Cliff Master of Xiuziya was forced to stay in the world with secret methods because of his lack of spiritual practice. After several battles, he couldn't suppress it, and then he ascended. Why did it become like this in your mouth? Is it difficult? Could it be that the methods used by both sides were not very honorable back then, so they changed the way they said it to the outside world?”
Mingxia glanced at Feiquan and said: “That’s right, what both sides did back then was not very honorable, so the news There is not much news about it, and I only know the whole story because I participated in it.”
When I heard this, Chu Tai immediately became energetic and knew that this lineage needed to be paid attention to.
Mingxia also knew that this was the key point. As an old man, he recalled carefully for a while and told everything he knew.
“Although the contemporary Cliff Master Tao Yuan is at the fifth level like Taoist Min Yuan, he obtained the superior merits of Sanxian Immortal two hundred years ago, and the condensed Dharma principles are far beyond what Taoist Min Yuan can match. Although I don’t know if he has mastered any magical powers now, but the silent divine thunder and phaseless divine needle of this line are very powerful, and it is difficult to guard against them. If you encounter them, you should take precautions.”
After a pause, Mingxia Shenjun said very solemnly: "It is said that when the two parties agreed to fight, the cliff master of Xiuziya used the phaseless divine needle to break the protective magic weapons of several Jinhua Sect monks, and the Jinhua Sect surrendered. Next, they still destroyed their bodies with the Silent Divine Thunder, and then the treasure of the Zhen Sect was subsequently destroyed."
Hearing this, Chu Tai asked about some of the details.
A few people walked and chatted. After Chu Tai figured out the whole story, they dug a cave and started their own practice.
While Chu Tai was deducing the Yinjing Sect method and refining the magic weapons in his hands, Mingxia and Feiquan left for a while. In the following days, they left early and came back late, and they relaxed a lot about Guo Shan's teachings.
After half a year of this, Chu Tai sorted out most of the magic methods at hand, and after completing the refining of the magic weapons, he said goodbye to Mingxia, Feiquan and Guo Shan.
"Take it."
Before Chu Tai left, Mingxia suddenly took out a pair of tiger charms and handed them to Chu Tai. The tiger talisman is crystal clear and divided into two parts, Yin and Yang. There are many mantras on it to subdue demons. It is the magic weapon Qianyuan Ruyi Turning Heart Lock that was painstakingly sacrificed by Mingxia Shenjun.
"Fellow Taoist, what are you doing?"
"Although you have many magic weapons, they are more for protecting yourself and fighting enemies. There are not many magic weapons for restraining others. , I am afraid that I will be at a loss when I meet Tao Yuan. I have been thinking about it for a while and feel that if I want to deal with Tao Yuan, this Qianyuan Ruyi Zhuan Xinsuo is the most suitable."
"But this treasure is not..."
Before Chu Tai finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mingxia Shenjun: "This thing is of little use if you keep it with me. If you really feel sorry for me, You can come back safely."
Hearing this, Chu Tai naturally couldn't refuse anymore. He took the treasure respectfully and set off for the Central Plains.
The moment Chu Tai walked out of Chu State, he felt a slight feeling of retention from the land of Chu State.
Chu Tai prayed silently in his heart, and after telling his thoughts, the feeling of retention dissipated and turned into little spiritual lights that gathered around Chu Tai.
The Donghuang Bell swayed gently, and a piece of text from the past that had not been completely manifested appeared again.
[Nineteen years - slaying the drought demons, benefiting the people, blessings from the true king, and becoming friends with the state of Chu...]
The flash of light completes the follow-up content [Resist external demons, follow the sky Obey the order, inherit the protection of the ancestors, the yin virtue will grow, and the good fortune will continue. 】
At the same time, new content emerged below this passage.
【Wandering away from Chu Yun, blessings from the earth's veins, obtaining nine strands of merit, performing good deeds in three directions, increasing one's magic power for three periods, and understanding the meaning of the mountains and rivers of Chu. 】
After these words emerged, Chu Tai immediately felt a surge of vitality in the earth's veins, constantly washing away the true energy in his body. And as these vitality washed away, Chu Tai also had an inexplicable feeling. He and Chu Tai were together again. The land of the country is connected into one piece.
The mountains and rivers that belong to this land were exposed in front of Chu Tai. He had a feeling that as long as he was willing, he could use this law to break through the current realm and step into the fifth level.
At the same time, Chu Tai also felt that no matter whether he accepted this Dharma intention or not, and chose to use it to break through, his connection with Chu Di would inevitably be reduced by 90%. The benefits of using the jade talisman to promote the transformation of the Dao Fruit fragments and derive [Fifth Grade·Sacrificial Wine] will also be completely over.
‘So the legal principle of offering wine is actually to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth to obtain blessings? ’
An untimely thought flashed through his mind, and then Chu Tai began to frantically write down the meaning of mountains and rivers that began to dissipate.
With the blessing of the power of Taoist fragments such as [Fang Warlock] and [Kanyu Master], Chu Tai easily memorized most of the mountains and rivers' meanings. The vaguer parts were some information related to the Chu royal family and the Chu country's humanities.
This part was not Chu Tai’s focus, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.
After receiving the meaning of the mountains and rivers, he briefly sorted out what he had gained, turned around and bowed to the mountains and rivers of Chudi, and then walked towards the Central Plains without looking back.
This time, every step he took was blessed by the Dharma of [Flying Immortal]. Every step he took was several miles away, and there was no breath left behind.
After a while, there was no trace of Chu Tai anymore.
