Li Yuexia knew that what he lacked was the opportunity to enter the Tao. But opportunities are hard to come by, and who knows where they are!
"I heard from Sande that the Immortal Master wants a Taoist disc. Although this is a bit troublesome, since it is the Immortal Master who is asking for it, there is no big problem. Pindao will prepare it now, and the Immortal Master can carry out the transfer tomorrow. That's a great gift." Li Yuexia knew that he could not offend these initiates and could only make good friends with them. So I agreed readily. For Taoist rituals, an auspicious day of the zodiac is usually chosen to hold a ritual ceremony to gather Taoist priests who want to receive rituals throughout the year to celebrate the rituals together. This kind of scene is glamorous, and it can also promote the style of Taoism, killing two birds with one stone. Like now, when I travel alone, it's rare. They are often those with special status and superior status. Although Xu Zhipeng is not well-known, as a Taoist and an immortal master, it is also the glory of their Taoism. No one dares to say no!
"Senior, juniors don't dare to take this title of Immortal Master. Senior can just call me Hunyun, or junior's common name is Xu Zhipeng. You can also call me Zhipeng. Don't call me Immortal Master. I don't dare to call you Immortal Master. Immortal." Xu Zhipeng felt uncomfortable when he was called Immortal Master. He quickly reported his Taoist name and common name, wanting to refuse this title. He was only at the fourth level of Qi Refining. According to the tradition of the previous cultivation world, he did not even dare to admit his identity as a cultivator. How could he dare to recognize the title of Immortal Master?
The nine realms of cultivation are originally calculated from foundation building.
"Of course I am an immortal master!" Li Yuexia said with a smile. "But since fellow Taoist Hunyun said so, then Yue Xia should be more respectful than obey his orders."
"Fellow Taoist Hunyun, you may not know the current basic situation of the Taoist world." Li Yuexia said. "Currently, in the world of monasticism, there are almost no initiates. For example, our Lingbao sect, Gezaoshan, Gexianshan and several other branches, plus you, the number of initiates is probably less than the number of hands. Zhengyi, Longhu, etc. The situation of the Tianshi Taoist Sect, Quanzhen, and Maoshan is not much better. Immortal Master, this is an honorific title for those of you who have entered the Tao, and it has been going on for hundreds of years. Fellow Taoist Hunyun, there is no need to be self-effacing."
"Ah, I didn't expect that the Dao Sect has fallen to this!" Xu Zhipeng sighed.
"Alas..." Li Yuexia also sighed accompanying him. Then he suddenly came back to his senses and slapped himself on the forehead. "I almost forgot, fellow Taoist is a Taoist immortal master. Who in our Chongzhen Palace is qualified to preside over the ceremony for you? Come on, the old Taoist will introduce you to a Taoist immortal master from our Lingbao Sect and ask him to help you. Host the transfer."
"Ah, is this convenient?" Xu Zhipeng was a little embarrassed. For him, what he is pursuing is just a Taoist offer, and it doesn't matter who will host it for him. He felt that it was rare for the purple-robed Palace Master to be willing, so why did he need any immortal master to support him? "I'm satisfied with the palace master presiding over it, so how dare you add more trouble to me."
"Fellow Taoist Hunyun is relieved. He lives behind Chongzhen Palace, only a quarter of an hour's walk from here. Moreover, if he knew that our Lingbao had sent a young initiate, I don't know how happy he would be. "Li Yuexia persuaded with a smile. Normally, if there is nothing serious, he really doesn't like to go to him. Apart from not giving him a good look, the main issue is his own mentality. The majestic Master of Chongzhen Palace and the headmaster of Lingbao Sect, Da Zhenren, cannot compare with his disciples in Taoism and Dharma, so there is no way he would have the nerve to hang out in front of him so often. "Let's go, I'll take you to find him!"
"Thank you, Palace Master!" Xu Zhipeng quickly expressed his thanks. Follow him out of Chongzhen Palace and walk towards the back mountain.
"I observe that Taoist friend Hunyun is very profound. I wonder how many years he has been practicing?"
The two of them were walking and talking, and somehow they came up with this topic. Xu Zhipeng frowned, not knowing how to answer. My Tao skills are mediocre, and I can still get some good Tao skills. However, in these years of practice, I feel a little embarrassed when I say it. I can't even count for a hundred days, and I don't know if I have the qualifications to obtain the Tao disc.
However, lies will eventually be exposed one day. Instead of feeling uncomfortable when the time comes, it is better to tell the truth, which will not make the Taoist heart become dusty. "I am not afraid of being laughed at by the Palace Master if I speak out. I have been inspired by my master, and I have only been able to practice Taoism for a hundred days. The Taoist teachings are sparse, and I have not yet been able to make it to the stage. But my master has passed away, and my Xuanwei suddenly has to face transformation. I have not yet If you have time to obtain the Taoist disc, you are not considered a Taoist priest, and you will naturally not be able to inherit the Taoist temple. Therefore, you have the audacity to come to the ancestral court to ask for the Taoist disc." What he said was a bit calm and natural, even though Li Yuexia heard it a little strange, But he didn't dare to laugh out loud.
It’s only been a hundred days since I entered the Tao! Although he has not yet entered Taoism, he still has some discernment. This Hunyun does not look like an immortal master who has just entered Taoism, but like a Taoist immortal who has been immersed in Taoism for many years. Li Yuexia wanted to believe it or not, but he couldn't think of a reason for Xu Zhipeng to lie to him, so he could only laugh dryly, blaming himself for talking too much.
"Tao dishes are all trivial matters. Those things about Qi Nian San are really a headache! I think our Chongzhen Palace has encountered various problems in the past. In recent years, through our Lingbao Sect disciples, we have been constantly Through hard work, we truly took control of the management of Chongzhen Palace. Alas, the decline of the Taoist sect is really a tragedy for our generation of Taoists!"
"Fellow Taoist Hunyun, please remember to keep a normal mind and don't act out of anger!" As he said this, Li Yuexia felt the same way and said it about himself. Their experience in Dawanshou Chongzhen Palace can also be full of twists and turns. Originally, the Chongzhen Palace on Gezao Mountain was just a Taoist temple. In order to develop tourism, the local government introduced capital and rebuilt the Chongzhen Palace. However, the management rights of Taoist temples have fallen into the hands of these foreign capitals. They, the Lingbao Sect disciples, had been competing with them for more than ten years before they regained control of the Dao Palace four years ago. How can we talk to others about the hardships and compromises involved! At the end of his words, he finally admonished Xu Zhipeng in front of him.
"Of course this junior can save it!" Xu Zhipeng was grateful. To be able to say this kind of heartfelt words of comfort to a person whom he met on the first day, he has recognized the love.
"Look, we're right ahead." After walking for a while, Li Yuexia pointed his hand and said to Xu Zhipeng. Xu Zhipeng looked in the direction pointed. There was an old Taoist temple there, leaning against the mountain wall. There were also several yellow attics halfway up the mountain, connected by plank roads along the mountain. At first glance, it seems to be the abode of gods.
“What a Three Treasures Temple!”
"Ah, from such a distance, fellow Taoist Hunyun can actually see?" Li Yuexia was filled with admiration when he heard Xu Zhipeng's praise. This place is still about a mile away from the Three Treasures Temple. From such a long distance, Hunyun can actually see clearly the small characters on the door. It is indeed a profound magical power. "Yue Xia is really impressed!"
"Haha, it's just a trail. Once the palace master breaks through the current shackles, he can easily do it." Xu Zhipeng responded modestly. This is simple indeed. It is just a matter of luck reaching the meridians of the eyes, and the vision will become clear immediately. There is really nothing to pay attention to.
After walking for a while, they arrived at the entrance of Sanbao Temple.
The gate was wide open and no one was guarding it. After walking into the Taoist temple and turning around the screen wall, I realized that all the people in the Taoist temple should be in the square in front of me.
There should be two groups of people in the square. Needless to say, one group is the owner of the place, and the other group, Xu Zhipeng looks at it, should be wealthy people, but he doesn't know what they are here for.
But it seems that Palace Master Li also knows him, and now he has walked forward quickly.
"Li Sansheng, why is it so lively today? Hey, isn't this layman Guo Da? Why are you free to come to our Gezao Mountain today?"
"Haha, Li Yuexia, Palace Master Li, you are fine."
"The palace master is not enjoying the blessings of Dawanshou Chongzhen Palace. Why did he come here to the back mountain? Could it be that he heard someone Guo coming!"
This layman surnamed Guo must be from Guangdong Province. He speaks Cantonese Mandarin that is half-understandable. However, it seems that his tone does not have much respect for Palace Master Liu, and there is even a slight hint of contempt in his words. I don’t know why he has such courage to insult the leader of Lingbao Sect in Gezao Mountain. Teach great people. Aren't you afraid of being repaired by the Taoist priests in front?
You know, among the Taoist priests standing in front of him, five of them are monks who have entered the Qi training stage. If that person is picked out, he can be easily dealt with.
But they don't seem to care!
Xu Zhipeng glanced at them and had nothing to be angry about. Instead, he looked curiously at Li Yuexia and the Taoist priest Li Sansheng standing not far from him.
