Chapter 460 Changling Taoist Temple
Chenghuang Temple.
There are many pedestrians and it is bustling and lively.
Gui Ji Xi Lengyan frowned and disliked such a popular place. The maid next to her felt even more uncomfortable. Even holding an umbrella, she could feel her body being burned by the popularity from all directions.
“Miss, can the incense candles and charms in the temple really cover our breath?”
Chunxiang asked.
Xi Lengyan casually replied: "In this kind of City God's Temple, the incense candles and charms carry the power of incense and wishes, coupled with the blessing of the City God's Yinsi's divine power, they can naturally easily cover up the cold and ghostly aura on our bodies. However, It can’t last too long, otherwise it will corrode us.”
“In the heyday, this kind of thing wouldn’t affect me, but it’s different now. Okay, you control a few ordinary people to buy incense candles. And the charm."
Chunxiang nodded, "Yes, miss."
After a while.
Two women handed over the incense and candle charms they purchased.
Xi Lengyan tapped her fingers, used some tricks, and then placed the charms on her and the maid respectively. "Let's go back to the inn. At noon, you can rent a courtyard and light incense candles in the courtyard. The breath on our bodies will disappear.”
While they are doing their business.
Inside the inn.
Shen Ping is sitting cross-legged on the bed, running the self-created technique "Dao Lun Jue". Before in the ancient temple, he did not dare to practice too much for fear of attracting attention. Now that he is running at full strength, there are bursts of waves around him. The cold spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured into the body from all directions, and soon passed through the spine of the dragon and transformed into his mana.
This kind of mana is not the same as the mana transformed by spiritual roots. There seems to be a rule restriction in the mana, making it difficult to use mana to perform the magical means in the memory of the true spirit.
To this.
He was not surprised at all.
This palace world must have the influence of the great avenue of heaven and earth. Only by using the rules of this world can we exert extraordinary power.
After noticing the scent of Leng Yan and Chun Xiang outside the inn, he immediately stopped practicing.
Not a moment.
The two women walked into the inn room.
"No, these are the snacks and roasted chicken that the lady brought you. Mr. Shen, my lady is sincere to you, and I hope you will not let it down."
Chunxiang placed the lunch box on the table. Don’t forget to remind me.
Shen Ping said with a pointed smile: "Don't worry, I will repay your lady well tonight."
The cheeks of the two women suddenly turned red.
Although they are not chaste and virtuous women, they were still ladies of the world during their lifetime, and they are reserved and shy in this regard.
After finishing the food.
Chunxiang left to rent a residential compound.
Shen Ping took the opportunity to ask Xi Lenyan about matters related to practice, "Miss Xi, I see that your maid has good legs and feet. Has she followed an immortal? Can she know magic?"
Xi Lengyan shook her head, "There are no immortals in this world. They are just Taoist methods and heretical techniques. Chunxiang and I met a wandering Taoist priest in the early years and learned some things. Only then did we dare to go out in the wilderness. Walking."
Shen Ping said, "So, if you want to practice, you have to enter a Taoist temple to learn from a disciple?"
"Yes, but Taoist temples are very strict in accepting disciples. , not only talent, but also character. Since Mr. Shen is a scholar, the Nu family thinks it is best to take the imperial examination. If he can reach high school, he will be no weaker in this world than cultivation. "
Xi Lengyan said seriously.
“How do you say this?”
As he spoke, Shen Ping first told the story of his encounter with the demon fox, and then revealed his desire to visit immortals and find the way.
"Anyone who can pass the imperial examination and high school will be protected by Wenquxing. Once he enters the court and becomes an official, he will be protected by the court's dragon aura, which will make it difficult for ordinary people with righteousness and wild fox monsters to get close..."
Listen to Xi Lengyan’s explanation.
Shen Ping gradually gained a clearer understanding of this world. There is only one dynasty in this world, which is the Kingdom of Zhao. It has twelve major states under its jurisdiction, and each state has a dragon tripod. By gathering the energy of the dragon vein, the government, even the county and county offices, will be protected by the dragon vein, and the sneaky monsters will not be able to approach easily.
The world-famous Taoist temples will be granted imperial edicts and enjoy the luck of the dynasty. In addition, there are also some folk Taoist temples and temples that can gather dragon energy through the incense of the people.
"The way of cultivation is difficult to reach the sky. Even if you succeed in cultivation, there are many restrictions and you can't be truly free and easy. Therefore, the young master should still work hard on his studies. Once he enters the Dragon Court one day, he will rise to the top."
< br>Shen Ping shook his head, "Miss Xi, don't try to persuade me anymore, Xiaosheng's determination to practice Taoism has long been determined and will never change."
Seeing this.
Xi Lengyan could only sigh helplessly. Although her cultivation level was not low, she came from a scholarly family and had been influenced by it for many years. Her desire to study and pursue a career had long been ingrained. In her heart, she hoped to have a few nights with her. The happy Mr. Shen can pass the Jinshi exam like her father.
It’s time for You.
The maid Chunxiang rented the house and the three of them moved in.
This house is a hundred years old. When you enter the house, the front yard and atrium are quite nice, but the back yard is dilapidated and looks quite eerie at night.
“It’s just a place where Yin Qi gathers, and that well is the location of the Six Evils. It’s a good place for those of us who cultivate Yin bodies.”
Xi Lengyan was very satisfied. .
Chunxiang smiled and said, "As long as the young lady likes it, relying on this environment, the young lady can recover faster."
Late at night.
Inside the bathtub in the bedroom in the backyard.
The water soaked in the medicinal materials showed a milky white color. Shen Ping could feel his body warm when he soaked in it, as if the medicinal power was nourishing his body.
"This medicinal bath will replenish the body. Mr. Shen has been having sex for the past few days. Although he seems to be fine, he has already lost money inside. He will replenish his body tonight and serve me well tomorrow night. "Master."
Xi Lengyan stood next to the bathtub and gave Shen Ping a clear look.
Shen Ping said with a smile: "Miss Xi, why don't you give me one piece?"
Xi Lengyan's face turned red and she said angrily: "Young master, don't try to seduce me. If I fall into the water, I might be tortured by you. ”
After that, he left quickly.
And the next night.
The energetic Shen Ping took off Xi Lengyan in three strokes, leaving only a pink bellyband. Under the light of the red candle, her skin was glowing with moisture.
Soon there was a loud sound in the house.
It hasn’t been more than an hour.
Xi Lengyan couldn't stand it anymore and gasped: "Master, why don't you let Chunxiang come with you? This girl is listening at the wall."
Before Shen Ping spoke, the maid Chunxiang He rushed into the bedroom and said with a full face: "Miss, you finally remembered me."
"You damn girl, why don't you come and help the young master warm up."
"Okay."
The next six or seven days.
The three of them stayed in the house and lived happily, reciting poems and playing poems during the day, and playing the flute every night. "Chunxiang, my cultivation level has recovered to 60%. It's time for us to leave Shanyang County."
This day.
Xi Lenyan said quietly.
Chunxiang could see the young lady's reluctance to let go of Mr. Shen. After all, Mr. Shen was her first man whether before or after her birth. Although there was no relationship between husband and wife, they were still married.
"Miss, although Mr. Shen is good, he is a scholar. Taking him with us will only drag him down, and in fact, it will harm him."
In fact, Chunxiang is also a little reluctant to let go, she In the past few days, I have experienced how powerful Shen Ping is, and that feeling is simply happier than anything in the world.
“Chunxiang, I don’t know what you are talking about. It’s just, just...that’s all. Let’s pack up and leave. This house will be left to him. I hope we can meet again in the future.”
The two women left without saying goodbye.
But in the bedroom where she lived, Xi Lengyan left a letter.
With Shen Ping's powerful true spirit, he could naturally sense the two of them leaving, but he did not forcefully persuade them to stay, because in the eyes of the other party, they were people from two different worlds.
Sit at the table.
Open the letter.
There is a beautiful handwriting on it: "Young Master Shen, I'll tell you the truth, I am a ghost body. If you and I are together, we may be punished by God. Moreover, I have things to do, so I can only leave without saying goodbye... ...I know that Mr. Shen is devoted to Taoism. There is a Taoist temple in Daliang Mountain near Shanyang County. You can try it. If you don't have the talent, I hope you will change your mind and devote yourself to studying and pass the imperial examination. "
“We are destined to meet again, Mr. Shen, don’t miss me.”
Fingers flashed with fluorescent light.
The letter burned to ashes.
These days, he has become more and more skilled in the use of his own magic power. Although it is still difficult to activate various methods, he has understood that the bones of the Tao are the foundation of all magic power.
"Miss Xi is indeed very kind. If it were any other ghost, they would have eaten me up and wiped me clean."
Shaked her head.
Put down distracting thoughts.
He rushed directly to Daliang Mountain the next day.
Daliang Mountain is not one of the famous mountains and rivers in the Twelve Prefectures of Da Zhao. The peaks are not as steep and majestic as other mountain ranges. The terrain is relatively gentle, but the scope is very vast, stretching for nearly hundreds of miles. The vegetation in the mountains Prosperous and rarely visited.
Not long after Shen Ping left, he encountered several snakes and insects.
After walking along the winding and rugged mountain road for more than two hours, I saw mountain people going up the mountain to collect medicine. After asking around, I learned that the temple is at the top of the third mountain.
Looking up, you can vaguely see it, but there is no building.
He hurried on his way and arrived at the entrance of the Taoist temple near dusk.
"The young man comes here in search of the Tao, hoping to worship him."
The Taoist temple is not big, so it was easy to find the Taoist priest. He directly stated his intention.
One of the older Taoist priests looked at Fan Shenping. This time, Shen Ping did not use the true spirit to cover up the mana in his body. "Hey, he actually has mana. It seems that he has Taoist talent." , come up.”
“Yes, Taoist Master”
Shen Ping took a few steps forward.
The Taoist priest checked and nodded slightly: "Have you ever entered other Taoist sects before?"
"No, Xiaosheng met a Taoist priest You Fang before. The Taoist priest taught him a few formulas and practiced them for several years."
"That's it."
" The master of the temple is not here, so you should stay in the temple for now and then make a decision when the master of the temple comes back.”
That’s it.
Shen Ping stayed in Changlingguan for three months.
Although he has not officially entered the Taoist school of Changling Temple in the past three months, the Taoist priest named Chen still gave him a cultivation method called "Changling Jue". Although it is only an entry-level Taoist method, it is recorded in it. The method of transporting and absorbing made up for Shen Ping's understanding of the rules of this world.
He just realized that when he absorbs and practices, he must not only absorb the Taoist bones, but also absorb a ray of vitality between heaven and earth. This vitality is just a name, like the purple energy rising in the east every day, which is vitality, and there are other special The yin and yang energy born from the environment, the energy of the five elements, etc., and Taoism also specializes in vitality pills, which are extracted from medicinal materials.
So without the orthodox practice methods, it is impossible to use spells and other means.
“Throwing beans into soldiers, paper cranes passing messages, golden-armored puppets, substitute techniques...these are all Taoist spells. They are interesting. It seems that the secret lies in this ray of vitality absorbed.”< br>
Different practice systems do have different presentation methods.
Shen Ping's previous method of cultivating immortal spiritual roots had many methods, but they could not give life to dead objects. Like puppets, they could only be controlled and driven by means such as the Art of Controlling Objects. However, here, even the puppets will have simple intelligence after being given magical power.
“This must be the influence of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.”
“The Dao of this world must be extraordinary.”
His face showed joy.
The Avenue of Heaven and Earth in the world of the giant cyan palace last time was actually very ordinary. Even if he relied on it to break through the Emperor, he would still be the most ordinary Emperor. So after choosing the way of the Great Hun Cave, he Instead of impatiently using the great avenues of heaven and earth such as metal, wood, water, fire, and earth to build a mixed cave space, he entered the palace world of Jiehai Peak.
Looking at it now, this is undoubtedly correct.
The more powerful the Heaven and Earth Avenue is, the more complete and stable the mixed cave space will be, and the more powerful the small world will be in the future.
"Shen Ping."
"You have made rapid progress in cultivation in the past three months. Even those introductory disciples of the Dao Sect are not far behind. Although the master has not returned, , but I have sent a letter to explain the situation. Yesterday, the temple master replied, asking me to accept you as a disciple first."
"Today, I will officially accept you as a disciple and give you the Taoist title Lingzhen. From now on, you are me. Chang Ling Guan’s Ling Zhen Taoist disciple.”
The main hall of Taoist temple.
In front of the statue of the founder of the Changling lineage.
Taoist Master Chen is also the solemn Taoist priest of Lingwu.
Shen Ping hurriedly saluted: "Thank you, Master, and thank you, Master Lingwu."
For a moment.
After going through a whole set of apprenticeship procedures, Taoist Master Lingwu showed a smile on his face, "Lingzhen, get up, you will be my nephew from now on. Our elder brother Ling Guanxiao has only ten people in the sect. Currently, your senior brother Follow your master, and when they come back, I will introduce them to you one by one."
"In addition, you can read the books in the temple if you want, but remember not to take them out or do anything with them. It’s a mess.”
This is what Shen Pingping said, “Uncle Xie Lingwu.”
There are not many books in Changling Temple, only fifty or sixty volumes, and most of them are. It's useless, but there are still several books containing information about spiritual practice.
In the Taoist sect, all practices are based on Taoism. Whoever has a profound Taoism can control the world. Taoism is a threshold every hundred years. Anyone under a hundred years is considered a Taoist. The above are considered Taoist priests who can be naturalized.
The foundation of Taoism is vitality. The vitality absorbed every day will form lines similar to annual rings on the Tao bones. The more lines there are, the higher the Taoism will be. To a certain extent, it can even turn decay into magic and create something out of nothing.
Shen Ping checked the annual rings of his Taoist bones. Among them, the Qi of the Five Elements practiced by the Changling lineage is now less than one circle. The same lines of Yin and Yang obtained from the ghost concubine Xi Lengyan are also Less than a circle.
