The night was as cool as water, and Taixu Garden became quiet for a while. The breeze blows through the purple bamboo in the garden, the branches and leaves sway, and the falling shadows linger.
In front of the stone table, Ye Ling and Bai Wuyu exchanged cups. After drinking strong alcohol, the sun burns in your stomach. If you don't spit out the truth in your stomach, it will be difficult to calm down.
Bai Wuyu spoke slowly and said: "The Holy Spirit Continent is a vast territory, divided into five directions and five regions. Only the southern region is wild and barbaric, and the northern polar region is where my demon clan lives. I practiced in the southern region when I was a child, and I was not yet able to transform. The method was captured and sold by the human race. It was transferred to Wentian Sect, originally for the purpose of refining alchemy."
"But fortunately, I was smart and managed to escape by luck and ran to Taixu Garden. Master saw that I was pitiful, so he helped me get rid of the pursuers, and I have stayed in Taixu Garden since then."
"Master has a destiny. Taixu Garden does not recruit demon disciples, so master does not accept me. Although he does not have the name of master and disciple, master often guides me to practice, and he follows me everywhere in Taixu Garden. Otherwise, with my I’m afraid I can’t even reach the current level of talent.”
"Although monks are pursuing the path of immortality, I have no idea. Being able to live to this day is considered a blessing. For the rest of my time, I just want to stay in Taixu Garden and don't want anything else."
Bai Wuyu's eyes flickered. Although he was a demon, he could not see his animal nature. He usually laughs, but he is in such a state of mind, which makes Ye Ling look sideways.
Ye Ling said: "The three teachings of Taoism are mysterious, but I chose the sword cultivator lineage. I still can't tell whether this is my own choice. But now that I have embarked on a journey, I only have the road in front of me, so why not care about it?" The back body? The edge of the sword, there is no retreat!"
Practicing swordsmanship also subtly changed Ye Ling's character. At this moment, he is like a sword that has just come out of the furnace. He just wants to show off the cold blade to prove his reputation!
Bai Wuyu smiled and said: "Senior Brother's character is such that he should be fearless and invincible!"
"The same goes for you, Xiaobai." Ye Ling turned to look at Bai Wuyu and said, "Since you call me senior brother, we are brothers. Master said that there are no travelers on the road, but I don't think so. Even if a sword strikes, Dust, there is also a scabbard to hide the sharp edge, let alone a monk? What is the point of being alone and alone for the rest of your life if you are traveling on the great road?"
"The sword in my hand is not a murderer, but a tool to prove the Dao!" Ye Ling said seriously: "The journey of the Dao is never a person's journey alone, but a companion on the Dao!"
Bai Wuyu smiled brightly and said: "Master will never accept a disciple easily, and the disciples he accepts are not easy people. What senior brother said tonight, Xiaobai, I will bear in mind!"
The two drank the wine and stopped talking. Drinks are ruthless, people have their own intentions.
…
The sky is bright and the shadows of the trees shine on the creek, flowing slowly.
In front of the wooden house, Bai Wuyu transformed into a crane about ten feet long with snow-white feathers.
Wu Qing on the side smiled and said: "I didn't expect you to be so handsome in your true form, Xiaobai. It's much prettier than your incarnation!"
Xianhe continued to speak human words and replied: "Our ancestors have long since taught us to practice in the form of the human race, which is most in line with the great road and makes rapid progress. Therefore, all tribes use the human form as their form and the human language as their language."
Ye Ling's forehead represents the leader of all spirits, so it has been imitated by hundreds of tribes and has been like this for hundreds of thousands of years.
The two of them turned over and sat on the back of the crane, and Bai Wuyu carried them down the mountain.
Disciples of the Wentian Sect can go to the Lingshi Mansion every month to receive a certain number of spiritual stones for cultivation.
Ye Ling and Wu Qing were new to the sect and didn't know the rules of the sect, but with Professor Bai Wuyu, they wouldn't be confused.
Soaring in the sky, wherever you look, you will see misty fairy mist, overlapping mountain shadows, vast forests and beautiful trees, bright palaces and high pavilions, waterfalls, cool springs, and clouds and clouds. A wonderful land of fairy land, all in sight.
Occasionally, a monk would walk in the air, taking one step forward and shrinking to an inch. It was truly otherworldly, and the wind was flying out of the dust.
Since then: the clouds are misty and the fog is clear. Towering green peaks invade Bihan, and mountain streams gurgling around stone bridges. The spiritual ape knows how to learn and secretly gathers Ganoderma lucidum grass. There is a wonderful way to listen quietly in Xiantai. Who knows that the Taoist skills in this place are high.
Every time you go to the mountains and forests, there will be a group of cranes soaring high and chirping happily. Bai Wuyu also talked in harmony, but he didn't know what he said.
Wu Qing was curious and asked: "People have their own language, and animals have their own animal language. Xiaobai, what do you say to them?"
Bai Wuyu turned his head and said: "The immortal cranes in the sect are all my descendants. On weekdays, I teach them how to practice, and they all call me master. When they see the master coming, they naturally come out to pay tribute."
Wu Qing smiled and said: "I didn't expect that your seniority is so high. Doesn't it mean that I can also be called master?"
"This is natural," Bai Wuyu responded: "I have already mentioned the two senior brothers to them. From now on, when walking in the sect, you can ask them to come out and use them as your legs. You don't need to run on the ground by yourself."
"That's not bad!"
Lingshi Mansion is relatively far away from Taixu Garden, located in a white jade stone palace directly north of the sect. In the mountain behind the stone palace, there is a spiritual stone mine for mining within the sect.
Spiritual stones are formed by innate spiritual energy soaking into the ground and combining with the soil.
There are five elements in the world, metal, wood, water, fire and earth. The innate spiritual energy is contained in it. When combined with gold, it is regarded as an immortal attribute, which can forge Taoist tools and temper immortal weapons. It can detoxify and nourish the body, or it can refine weapons to hurt people; when combined with fire, it can also be used as a divine fire, which can burn nothing and cannot be saved by ordinary water; when combined with earth, it can turn into a spiritual stone.
The spirit energy in the spirit stone is condensed and abundant, so it is most suitable for cultivation. It is much easier to absorb the spiritual energy from the spiritual stone than to ask for it from heaven and earth.
At this moment, Ye Ling and Yihe have not yet arrived, but the front of Lingshi Mansion is already crowded. Many of the Eight Peaks disciples gathered here, wanting to see Ye Ling and Wu Qing.
Taixu Garden has not accepted disciples for thousands of years. The natural treasures, magical weapons and Taoist treasures in the garden are enviable. Many disciples racked their brains to win Chen Yan's favor, but to no avail.
Therefore, someone suddenly worshiped Taixu, and the eight peaks naturally shook, making everyone even more dissatisfied and wanted to test his worth. However, Ye Ling and others never went out, so they had no chance.
When Ye Ling and others left Taixu Garden, people from the mountain had already seen them, and they were followed immediately. They judged that their destination was Lingshi Mansion, so they waited here in advance.
The elder in charge of the Lingshi Mansion is sitting in the hall, with his beard and hair like snow, floating on his chest, wearing a light yellow robe, embroidered with the Yin and Yang Tai Chi diagram, the Big Dipper array, and the bones of the immortal wind. He is not a mortal.
A young monk stepped in in front of the door, cupped his hands at the old Taoist and said, "Master, more and more people are gathering outside the door. Shouldn't you go out and take a look?"
"It doesn't matter!" The old Taoist replied: "The sect can come and go freely. As long as they don't come to the house to snatch spiritual stones, it has nothing to do with us. However, it is a strange thing for everyone to gather together. Do you know why they came?"
"Disciple heard that today the two newly promoted masters in Taixu Garden... are coming to the mansion to receive spiritual stones, so disciples from all peaks are here to have a look at them!"
Ye Ling and Wu Qing worship Chen Yan as their disciples, so they are very senior in the sect. They are the same generation as the headmaster, peak master, and elders everywhere. However, it is said that they are still young, so the young monk hesitates a little. Only then did he spit out the word "Uncle Master".
After hearing the words, the old Taoist realized: "That's so, it's human nature. Taixu Garden has not accepted disciples for thousands of years, and the treasures in the garden are coveted. If it weren't for the rules and regulations, Taixu Garden would have been rampant with bandits. , there are corpses everywhere. In that case, you don’t have to worry about it anymore, the old Taoist also wants to see my two junior brothers, what kind of geniuses can make Master Chen take them under his disciples."
"Yes, Master!"
…
The disciples in front of the door were in small groups, talking a lot, and the topic was about Ye Ling and Wu Qing:
"I don't know what these two people have, so they can enjoy Taixu."
"Back then, we knelt in Taixu Garden for a month, but we didn't see Master Chen Yan showing mercy. How could two outsiders get there first?"
"It's not just me. I heard that the masters from various peaks are also dissatisfied and are coming today to test the strength of these two people."
"Look, it's coming!"
Everyone looked as they were told and saw two young monks walking side by side in the distant sky. The person on the left has long flowing hair and a face like jade. He is wearing a light blue Taoist robe and a jade belt. He is shaking a folding fan in his hand and has an elegant temperament. The person on the right has his hair tied up in a bun with a jade hairpin inserted horizontally. He has a handsome appearance, white face and no beard; he is dressed in a snow-colored Taoist robe, with a fly whisk slanted on his arm, and he looks aloof from the world.
The two of them stepped into the void and came closer in a few steps. Everyone consciously gave up an open space for the two of them to stay.
The person holding the folding fan is Wang Zijin, a disciple of Xuanjin Peak; the person holding the whisk is Meng Peiran of Yuanshuifeng. Both of them are masters in the peak, the strongest among their peers. At a young age, they have already reached the level of Lingxu Realm. They can fly in the air and transcend the mundane world.
Not long after, another fairy arrived. This woman's hair is tied up with clouded temples, her face is like a peach blossom, and her glazed fairy skirt covers her graceful figure. A pair of jade feet are not covered by a single thread, half floating in the air, unstained by the world.
naturally:"
The pear blossom couldn't help but feel the cold wind, and her two red lips lightly lifted. The Xiang skirt is narrow and tied around the willow waist, and the bare feet are walking slowly on the golden lotus.
Why are you so lazy in this world? Light up your hands and scatter fireworks. I was so surprised to see the beauty of Pengdao that I could not sleep day and night. "
This woman is Lan Gongyue of Qingyu Peak, who has the same cultivation level as Wang Zijin and Meng Peiran, and was born in Lingxu.
Weiji, another young monk, strode over with long hair floating behind his head. He was wearing a scarlet Taoist robe, his face was like purple jade, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he stood with his hands behind his back.
This person is Huo Yun, a disciple of Crimson Fire Peak, with the same cultivation level of Lingxu Realm.
