"world?"
"Although Yuanji Immortal Master has achieved incredible achievements, he doesn't like to have his name on a statue and be worshiped by others, even by his disciples."
Hunyuan Tongzi explained: "So if there are offerings at the door of the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo, they often enshrine 'Heaven and Earth', 'Huanyu', 'Dao', etc. instead to show respect."
When Xu Zhuang heard this, his face couldn't help but look a little strange, and he glanced at the word "Heaven and Earth" above him.
The disciples of the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo have replaced it with this one. Could it be that Yuanji Immortal Lord himself compares himself to the greatness of the "Dao of Heaven, Earth, and the Universe"?
However, for such a powerful person, Xu Zhuang did not dare to speculate too much. He shook his head and suppressed his thoughts. Xu Zhuang took a few steps forward, bowed his hands to the white bones in the robe, and then took a closer look.
When the real soul of the soul is scattered, it becomes Qi, and when gathered, it takes shape. Unless it is done deliberately, there will usually be no corpse left behind.
But the power of this corpse has reached a certain level. At least Xu Zhuang felt that if it were still alive, it would probably still be above him.
You must know that a Nascent Soul monk like him who practices superior Taoism has a physical body that is as good as a Taoist bone immortal body. With Xu Zhuang's Taoism, foundation, and skills, his Tao body is also stronger than ordinary people.
Therefore, he expected that this corpse either had some advanced Taoist skills for cultivating the body, or that it had already embarked on the path of becoming a Taoist through other methods.
The facts were not what he expected. Xu Zhuang searched the mansion carefully and actually found a side path to enlightenment carved on the wall in a quiet room.
I don’t know how many times this monk has gone through the teachings of heretics, and the writing on the wall seems to have been changed several times. Xu Zhuang read it carefully, and based on his attainments in Taoism, it is not difficult to see that this sect has created an extraordinary foundation with the energy of the five elements. The method has been perfected.
Even if Xu Zhuang was willing, it would not be difficult to practice according to his Five Elements Taoism. However, Xu Zhuang felt it was boring, shook his head and said: "I don't know how many heretical methods there are in this world. It's a pity." If you don’t get the merits of the Immortal Family, it’s not the right path after all.”
Hunyuan boy responded: "How can everyone be qualified to desire the merits of the Immortal Family? It is a blessing from heaven to be able to obtain the Sanxian Xiaoyao."
Xu Zhuang said: "The methods of attaining enlightenment that can lead to the achievement of Sanxian are probably very few and very difficult."
Hunyuan boy was quite optimistic, and laughed and said: "Maybe I can survive the three disasters, channel psychic changes, and become the Lingbao Immortal. Don't worry, I will definitely not forget to protect you when the time comes."
"You are not ashamed of your words." Taiyi Rainbow Light Sword said coldly: "If you can really achieve something, it will be because of my leadership."
Hunyuan boy didn't worry. After all, it was just a joke. He hummed a few times and said, "That's not bad."
Xu Zhuang ignored the noise of the two boys and walked around in the quiet room. Suddenly he picked up a half-open Taoist book from the table.
This monk seemed to like to record the results of his practice. Xu Zhuang took a few glances at it. The whole book was full of words about Jinxing's Taoism, and there were also some practice experiences of several Taoisms.
Among them, it seems that the most studied one is the 'Gengjin Thunder Sword Qi', but he also spent a lot of time on the 'Huge Gold Warrior'.
In fact, there is also a very profound Taoist technique in Taisu Sect, which can turn Taisu Yuanzhen into a Taoist magic weapon. Not only is it extremely powerful, it can move mountains and seas, but it can also come and go invisible and play with qualitative changes. It can be said that it will " The teachings of Tai Su Zhen Xing Jing are brought to the extreme.
However, because the magic requires borrowing Tai Su Yuan Zhen, it is too extravagant. Even Xu Zhuang only observed it but never practiced it.
I don’t know whether the Five Elements Yuanqi warriors enlightened by the Five Directions Five Elements Dojo may be compared with the Tai Su Yuan Zhen Dao Protector Dharma Soldier.
Xu Zhuang was very interested in this kind of mysterious Taoism that could make soldiers out of nothing, so he simply put away his notes. Although some insights were nothing, but if there was a predestined relationship, he might be able to get one or two points of the Taoism itself from it. secret.
In addition, there are some treasures such as magic weapons and treasures in the mansion, but Xu Zhuang has no intention of looting them.
Firstly, these things are not important to him now, and secondly, this is the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo after all. Even though the situation seems not good now, he does not want to make too many mistakes.
Xu Zhuang wandered around the other monasteries and read some Taoist books, but found nothing. He just had no clue about the mystery of the Five Directions and Five Elements Taoist Temple and the search for the relics of the Fayuan Sect. It seemed that he could only Continue heading deeper into the dojo.
Returning to the square, Xu Zhuang had no choice but to try to explore in the last direction, pushing aside the layers of clouds and fog that blocked his path. He cautiously moved forward step by step for about half a moment before he felt something moved in his heart.
Sure enough, after bypassing a stone pool, Xu Zhuang suddenly saw a strange scene in front of him.
I saw a fairy vine winding up among the overlapping clouds. Each section of it was bigger than the stars. The branches and leaves were as small as islands and as large as continents. Through the clouds and mist, Through the gaps, Xuzhuang could see that countless palaces and temples were built on every branch and leaf.
Where I am, I am just above a small leaf. In front of me is a branch paved with stone steps, leading to the main trunk above the vine body, and then through the main trunk to go to any place...
"Is this the true face of the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo?" Xu Zhuang couldn't help but ask.
"It can't be wrong." Hunyuan boy murmured: "The rumors are indeed true. The Immortal Lord built the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo on an innate spiritual vine. Every branch and leaf has many disciples practicing..."
"It is worthy of the name of the Immortal Master's dojo." Xu Zhuang praised in his mouth. Just looking at the dojo, he couldn't help but feel troubled: "With such a dojo, countless branches and leaves, and countless palaces, how can we find the location of the ancestors of the Fayuan Sect?"
"This?" Boy Hunyuan also had a headache: "Logically speaking, if I get close to the leader's seal, I should be able to sense it, but finding the seal in such a vast place is undoubtedly like finding a needle in a haystack..."
What's more, if the dojo is full of chaotic time changes, I'm afraid it's not possible to go anywhere.
Hearing this, Xu Zhuang couldn't help but frown and said: "In this case, I can only do my best."
Even now, he still feels like he is out of tune with this place. He doesn't know the reason for this, but he has a vague feeling. It seems that as long as his mind moves, he will be 'ostracized' by the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo. go out.
If the real thing cannot be done, he will not hesitate when it is time to leave.
Hunyuan boy responded with a sigh, "That's the only way." Looking for the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo was originally just a whim. Although it was much smoother than expected and he entered the dojo, it's no wonder that he couldn't find the needle in the haystack.
Xu Zhuang nodded slightly, but when he was entrusted by others, he should do his best to be loyal to others before running out of plans, not to mention that the opportunity for his soul had not yet been established.
Having made his decision, Xu Zhuang didn't stop any longer and wanted to go to the main trunk of the fairy vine. Just as he stepped onto the stone steps, Xu Zhuang's expression suddenly changed slightly.
At this moment, the feeling of being out of place was still there, but the feeling of being able to escape at any time suddenly disappeared.
Hunyuan boy and Taiyi Rainbow Light Sword noticed something was wrong, and were about to ask, but Xu Zhuang suddenly took a step back, his expression suddenly softened a little, and when he returned to the 'leaf island', that feeling returned to him. It seems that this is the anchor point and doorway to escape.
This situation is not the worst, but it is just that he cannot leave at any time, which means that Xu Zhuang must be very cautious again when exploring the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo.
Xu Zhuang said: "Young boy Hunyuan, maybe I need to trouble you to protect me at all times."
"Okay." The Hunyuan boy knew the urgency of the matter and responded decisively, then unfolded the Hunyuan Bao canopy to protect Xu Zhuang's body.
Xu Zhuang waved his sleeves and walked downwards a little faster. Following his movements, Hunyuan Boy said again: "The fluctuations in the passage of time have intensified..."
Xu Zhuang nodded calmly, but he moved a little faster. He quickly walked halfway through a long and winding stone staircase. Boy Hunyuan suddenly became excited and called out: "Wait a minute, wait a minute."
Without waiting for further questioning, Hunyuan Bao Huagai suddenly raised a hanging Baoqi, pointed towards the distance, and shouted: "Have you seen that place?"
Xu Zhuang looked up, and through the gap in the clouds and mist, he could just see a section of the main trunk of the fairy vine, and it seemed that he could vaguely see a five-color platform.
Hunyuan boy said: "If the Fayuan Sect's records are correct, it must be the Immortal Vine Middle Festival, where Yuanji Immortal Master opened the altar to preach. It is also the place where countless practitioners of the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo gather most often."
"Oh?" Xu Zhuang pondered: "So, if there is a place where we are most likely to find clues, it is there."
"Not bad." Hunyuan boy said firmly.
"Then let's go there." Xu Zhuang took a closer look and made sure that there would be no mistake in climbing up the main trunk of the fairy vine. He immediately felt refreshed and headed down quickly.
When he stepped onto the main trunk of the fairy vine, Hunyuan boy suddenly said in a deep voice: "Xuzhuang!"
Xu Zhuang glanced upward. The stone steps on the main trunk were even longer, and the five-color platform was hidden in the clouds and mist. He didn't want to delay, and kept rushing upwards. He only responded in his heart: "Speak frankly, boy."
Hunyuan boy solemnly said: "If we use the anchor when we first entered the dojo, we may have spent an extra year on our journey."
Xu Zhuang's heart trembled. He knew that it was not his lifespan that was consumed, but that he was here for just half a day. The outside world might have spent a year. This was based on the fact that when they first entered the dojo, they had not changed from the outside world. computational.
After all, when entering the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo, no matter Xu Zhuang, Hunyuan Boy, or Hong'er, their perceptions were inexplicably blurred. This is undoubtedly what Xu Zhuang least wants to see.
"Since this is the case, there is no need to delay." He glanced upward again, took one step, and seemed to have crossed thousands of feet, but he used the earth escape technique so close to the end of the world, and at the same time said in a deep voice: "Please Boy, keep an eye on me, I don’t want to be disconnected from the outside world for too long.”
Hunyuan boy asked: "Is there a time limit?"
Xu Zhuang responded without any further hesitation: "A hundred years!"
…
Xu Zhuang seems to have heard someone say that the passage of time is like a river rushing forward. No matter how fast or slow it flows, it will never turn back.
It took a hundred years to come, and it will take a hundred years to leave, not counting what would happen if there were any clues.
Hunyuan boy also knew that Xu Zhuang had done his best, without saying a word, and fully aware of the changes in time. Fortunately, along the way, the situation did not seem to be as severe as imagined.
Based on the time when he first entered the dojo, it would not have taken more than twenty or thirty years at most. However, Xu Zhuang seemed to have some unexplainable discomfort during the violent fluctuations and changes, which caused him to develop A bit eager.
Fortunately, after carefully and slowly passing a long stone staircase that was filled with smoke and clouds, making it almost impossible to see anything, our eyes suddenly opened up, and the five-color platform came into view.
It turns out that the whole place is made of five-color jade. It looks like the clouds are flowing. There are inscriptions with the word "daomenlu" in every room a few steps away. It seems that there are other mysterious things.
Climbing here, Xu Zhuang was surprised to find that the five-color jade platform was only about a thousand feet wide, which seemed too small for an immortal to open an altar and for countless practitioners to listen to the sermon.
However, perhaps it was because this jade platform had the ability to make all the wishes come true, and it was reasonable to even have a different cave. Xu Zhuang did not pay too much attention to it. What was even more disappointing to him was that there was not even the imagined scene of corpses everywhere.
The five directions of the jade platform seem to correspond to the five elements, but from gold to earth, no matter which side you look at, they are clean and solemn, as if nothing has happened.
In the center of the jade platform, there was no altar for the Immortal Lord to preach. Instead, a jade pillar was erected. The pillar was densely packed, and it seemed that it was covered with talismans the size of a fly's head.
Perhaps knowing Xu Zhuang's doubts, Hunyuan boy thought hard and suddenly said: "I understand."
"It is said that every time before the Immortal Master opens an altar, he will order his disciples to erect a pillar on the five-color platform and inscribe the topics to be discussed at the opening of the altar."
"In this way, people in the dojo can judge by themselves whether they have listened to the lecture or not. If they are interested, they can understand and figure it out in advance, and then compare it when the immortal master starts teaching. This will be even more beneficial."
"I heard that many practitioners who come from the Five Directions and Five Elements Dojo will do this when preaching. However, my Fayuan Sect does not seem to have such a habit, and I did not react for a moment."
"Oh?" After hearing this, Xu Zhuang couldn't help but feel moved. He quickly walked into the center of the jade platform, looked up, and was slightly surprised.
Writing is for recording and expression. For Xuzhuang, it is not difficult to guess the content even if the words are unfamiliar to him, not to mention that what is engraved here is an orthodox Taoist ritual.
The more advanced the Taoist monks are, the easier it will be to explain the mystical principles using Taoist teachings. Xu Zhuang had only seen half of it and already had some understanding.
"Five Qi Gang Fighting Chapter."
What this is talking about seems to be a chapter in "Five Elements Yuanji He Zhenxian Lu", which talks about a profound change of the five elements' mana. Condensing the five elements' mana into a talisman can carry magical powers.
It seems simple to say, but in fact it is very mysterious. Using this method to refine Taoist talismans is just overkill. It can even be given to others so that others can use it to perform Taoist magic and enlighten the five elements of vitality into strong men. This chapter is just arbitrary. A few strokes.
"Is this the Taoism preached by the Immortal?" Xu Zhuang couldn't help but praise: "It's beyond imagination."
Unexpectedly, Xu Zhuang was shocked when he said this.
I heard a sudden voice from behind, saying: "Really?"
