Dongsheng Shenzhou, Shaoyang Mountain.
Shaoyang Mountain does not have a sage ancestor, but instead practices Yuqing Shangfa. The current temple master of Shaoyang Mountain, Li Xuanyi, is the founder of Shaoyang Mountain.
Li Xuan sought Taoism as a young man and traveled all over the world to visit famous teachers. He did not meet a true master for thirty years.
But he did not give up, and his desire to seek the Tao became more determined. Thirty years later, the seventy-five-year-old Li Xuanyi was still a mortal body and had not yet entered the Tao.
Finally, at the age of seventy-six, his life was about to end, but he never regretted his lifelong pursuit of Taoism, even if he gained nothing, even if he died alone.
At the end of his life, Li Xuanyi finally had a profound enlightenment. He stood up like a flashback and wrote a question poem on a big stone with his fingers. The poem said:
The young man is uninhibited and high-spirited, and his mind is in the sky when he is in the world of mortals.
Don't be afraid of distant mountains and dangerous cliffs, just be afraid that this life will be like basil.
I have never seen the world grow old in my life, but I can see my beauty disappearing with each passing year.
Once the smoke and clouds of wealth are gone, it is a waste of time to live in this world.
This heart piously pursues morality, and leaps out of the world to be free.
I don't regret my past life with a snap of my fingers, and I am willing to break the mortal prison in the next life.
When writing this, Li Xuanyi suddenly realized that the big stone in front of him was stained red with blood. When he looked at his right hand, he found that half of his arm had been worn off.
But he didn't feel the pain at all. In an instant, it was like light from heaven entering his body, the spiritual platform was bright, and the wind in the forest was blowing. In the dark forest, a colorful tiger suddenly jumped out and rushed directly towards Li Xuanyi.
Instead of being afraid, Li Xuanyi waited calmly. The tiger roared and then threw Li Xuanyi's body to the ground.
But Li Xuanyi did not fall to the ground, because it was his mortal body that fell to the ground.
The two huge tiger claws of the beautiful tiger held down Li Xuan's mortal body, turned around and spat out human words to Li Xuan: "Congratulations to the Taoist Master for achieving the righteous fruition, attaining the Tao and becoming an immortal. The Taoist Master has become an immortal." , then this mortal body must be useless, right?”
Li Xuan chuckled, waved his sleeves and said, "Thank you very much for helping me, otherwise I wouldn't have shed my mortal body so quickly, and I would have given this mortal body to you."
The beautiful tiger was overjoyed and said: "The immortal is benevolent, and the little demon is grateful."
After that, the beautiful tiger took Li Xuanyi's mortal body in its mouth, jumped up and disappeared into the forest again.
After Li Xuan had an epiphany and cast off his mortal body, he picked the True Immortal Tao Fruit, and was given Taoist teachings by Dou Mu Yuanjun. With Taiyi Xuanxian Daoguo.
Today, Li Xuanyi established a mountain in Dongsheng Shenzhou to recruit disciples, and established the gate of the mountain as "Shaoyang Mountain". He became a great master and the founder of the mountain.
At this moment, Li Xuanyi was sitting cross-legged in his mountain gate monastery. He had met Yan Haiping from Yuhua Temple and Zhao Yangqing from Xuantu Temple a few days ago, and the three families had already formed a secret alliance.
However, the attitude at Lingxia Mountain was still vague, but Li Xuanyi was not surprised.
"In everything you do, you have to look after yourself, your wealth and your life. How can you leave the struggle for orthodoxy to others?" Li Xuanyi thought in his heart.
But Zhenyang Dao Palace is powerful after all, and there are thirty-six golden immortals among them. Li Xuanyi does not think that he, Taiyi Xuanxian, can defeat thirty-six golden immortals, let alone thirty-six, even two All of them can only help themselves.
But seventy-six years of seeking Taoism have already made him extremely determined in his heart, "If Zhenyang Taoist Palace really wants to be ruthless, they can only abandon the mountain and run away for a while. If you can't leave, that's it." Even if your body is shattered into pieces, you will never change your ancestor Yizong!"
Although Li Xuanyi is the founder of Shaoyang Mountain, there are two gods enshrined in Shaoyang Mountain, one is Taishang Laojun, and the other is Doumu Yuanjun who bestows dharma.
It is common sense that Taishang Laojun is worshiped by all Taoist disciples, but Doumu Yuanjun Shaoyang Mountain is worshiped in the name of the founder of Taoism.
At this moment, when Li Xuanyi was planning something in the monastery, a golden light suddenly flashed through, illuminating the entire monastery.
Li Xuanyi hurriedly raised his head and saw a piece of silk slowly emerging under the golden light. Li Xuanyi hurriedly stood up and took the silk. When he saw the talisman on the silk, he was shocked.
"Is this the talisman of Tushita Palace?" Li Xuanyi quickly bowed to the golden light, and then slowly opened the silk.
I saw two lines of inscriptions written on it, saying: "A great disaster is coming, hurry up and leave Gushan, the fate of Emperor Tianxing should be in Zhuming."
"This is a warning from the Taoist Patriarch!" Li Xuan put away the silk and immediately flew out of the monastery.
"Summon the disciples of the sect to come to Shaoyang Palace to discuss matters." Li Xuan said to the boy beside him.
The boy took the order and left, and soon all the Shaoyang Mountain disciples came to the Shaoyang Hall to assemble.
Facing these Shaoyang Mountain disciples, Li Xuanyi said directly without any nonsense: "The Zhenyang Taoist Palace is pressing hard, and our Shaoyang Mountain power is weak and it is difficult to compete with them. In order to inherit the Shaoyang Mountain Taoism, I have decided to abandon the mountain and leave, giving you an hour to go back and prepare."
Recently, the persecution of Shaoyang Mountain by Zhenyang Dao Palace has indeed become more and more serious, and all the disciples are also deeply aware of it. After hearing this, no one questioned it, and they all followed the order and left.
Half an hour later, Yuhua Temple and Xuantu Temple sent people over respectively. It turned out that their two families had also received the silk warning.
"It seems that Zhenyang Dao Palace is going to take action." Li Xuanyi immediately guessed the reason behind this.
"It's just that we are ashamed to bother Dao Ancestor personally to issue a warning." Li Xuanyi then said to the two families: "You should go back quickly and report to Guanzhu Yan and Guanzhu Zhao, saying that Shaoyang Mountain has also received the warning from Dao Ancestor. Please ask the two temple masters to lead the disciples to abandon the mountain immediately, and we will meet at the west border of Zizheng Kingdom."
"Yes." Upon hearing this, the two disciples immediately took the order and left.
After another half an hour, Li Xuanyi finally led all the Shaoyang Mountain disciples to abandon the mountain, taking away all the statues and tablets, leaving only an empty temple.
...
Just when the three families of Shaoyangshan, Xuantuguan and Yuhuaguan abandoned the mountain and met at the border of Zizheng Kingdom, Fang Jianzheng came out of Leibu.
He had already received Cen Biqing's notice about the Yuhua Temple. This was the helper he had arranged for Zhu Yuanzhang and the others.
That's why he transformed into Da Fang Zhenren and rescued Lu Xuansheng that day. Counting the days, Lu Xuansheng should have recovered from his injuries and returned to Yuhua Temple. It's time to take this step.
Because the Hongqing Temple was built in Lingxia Mountain, the communication between Cen Biqing and Fang Jian became much easier.
As long as the people of Yangxia County prayed to the Earth God in the same way, the information can be directly transmitted to Fang Jian's Immortal Official Jade Plate.
Fang Jian can also appear in the Hongqing Temple and meet Cen Biqing through magical manifestation.
After Fang Jian returned to Fang Cunju in Tianyuan Court, he immediately appeared in the Hongqing Temple in Lingxia Mountain.
The little demon who was responsible for guarding and cleaning the Hongqing Temple first saw the statue of Hongqing flashing with fairy light, and then the statue slowly turned into a real person exactly like Fang Jian. He screamed in fright, then ran out and shouted : "The boss has appeared!"
"Brother Fang has appeared!"
When the little demon shouted, it immediately alarmed the entire main peak of Lingxia Mountain. Then a clear fairy light flashed across the top of Lingxia Mountain. It turned out that Cen Biqing had flown from the main hall of Lingxia Mountain to the Hongqing Temple. .
