Qingyang Road in China refers to Xuanshan Mountain.
Purple clouds purify the sky.
This is where Xuandu Temple, one of the authentic Taoist sects and Chunyang Dharma lineage in the world, is located.
It means that Xuanshan Mountain appears in China and is the place where the Dongtian Gate communicates with the outside world. There is a lower courtyard Taoist temple on it - Zixia Temple. Now sitting in it is an inner disciple of the sect with several Taoist boys.
However, Mo Ming used the power of the magic urn to go straight into the cave and did not stop at Zixia Temple.
Xuandu Cave has a radius of 49,000 miles, and is home to nine immortal peaks, thirty-six spiritual mountains, and many mountains, rivers and lakes of different sizes arranged in all directions.
In the mountains, you can see the misty clouds and the misty clouds.
There are also undulating pines, melodious cranes, and the sound of surging rivers harmonizing with the sounds of all spirits, creating a completely pure and natural scene.
What Lin Xuanzhi saw and felt was completely in line with his expectations and fantasies about the paradise of the Immortal Family Cave.
Quiet and natural, full of Taoist charm!
"You go back to Jiuxuan Peak first, and I will take Xuanzhi to meet the temple master."
"Yes, sir."
Shen Xinghe told Mo Ming, then clouds formed under his feet, and he took Lin Xuanzhi towards the cave sky and flew towards an ancient Taoist palace on Xuan Peak.
As the master, Shen Xinghe still reminded: "The master of the temple is the most kind and approachable, so you don't need to be nervous."
It didn't take long.
The two of them descended from the clouds at the foot of Zhixuan Peak and walked up to the quaint and unpretentious Taoist temple halfway up the mountain.
This is a place where Taoist ancestors and ancestors are enshrined, and it is also where the temple master practices daily. It is rare to see other people. Of course, this is because there are not many temple disciples in Xuandu and they are scattered throughout the cave.
After crossing the gate, the screen wall, and passing a large incense burner, Lin Xuanzhi followed his master to the front of Xuandu Palace, the main hall. He saw the words on both sides of the main hall: "One heart is devoted to the Tao, the Tao is boundless, and there is happiness in the Tao." "I have no need to seek anything else." The handwriting is simple and natural, with a sense of spontaneity.
In the main hall.
Lin Xuanzhi saw a Taoist wearing a purple cloud-patterned Taoist robe, with snow-white beard and hair, and baby-like skin looking at the two of them with a smile. He wore a fish tail crown on his head and held a silver whisk with a sapphire handle. His eyes were clear and gentle, which made people laugh. Looking at it brings a sense of intimacy to my heart.
There was a seven or eight-year-old boy in white clothes beside him, wearing a Hunyuan scarf and winking at Lin Xuanzhi and Lin Xuanzhi with a silly smile.
"Disciple Shen Xinghe has met the temple master, and this trip is considered a blessing."
Lin Xuanzhi bowed to the temple master and saluted, and said solemnly: "Disciple Lin Xuanzhi has met the temple master in person."
The master of Xuandu Temple nodded towards Shen Xinghe, then looked at Lin Xuanzhi and said with a smile: "We have met before, we can be considered old acquaintances. The old Taoist Lingxuzi, whose family name is Xie."
Lin Xuanzhi couldn't help but blush, and hurriedly thanked him: "Disciple, I would like to thank the master for using the method to open the altar."
Lingxuzi nodded, and then ordered the boy in white: "Prepare incense."
The boy nodded obediently and quickly took the incense with purple and gold patterns and handed it to Lin Xuanzhi.
In the middle of the hall.
The cloud platform for confession is arranged in a staircase downwards. The top of the jade statue has wide sleeves and robes. Its demeanor is unworldly and ethereal. Its face changes and is hazy, giving people an unfathomable feeling.
However, it does not seem to be in the center, but instead is vaguely juxtaposed with the empty space on the side.
Lingxuzi softly narrated: "Although the Patriarch attained Taoism under the Nanhua Taoist Patriarch, the Taoist Patriarch said that our lineage of dharma is inherited from the Xuandu Taoist Patriarch, who passed on the Dharma to his acting brother."
"Not long after the creation of the world, Taoist Xuandu passed away, leaving very few traces in the world."
Lin Xuanzhi solved a doubt in his heart, and then offered the incense devoutly.
There is only one jade statue on the second floor of the cloud platform. It is an honest Taoist dressed in simple green clothes and wearing a lotus crown. He is the founder of Xuandu - Zhenjun Zixia.
The third floor is the true kings who have achieved Chunyang in the Xuandu Temple. Lin Xuanzhi looked and found that there were thirteen jade statues.
As for the real person Yuanshen, there are portraits of his true appearance on both sides of Xuandu Palace.
However, Lin Xuanzhi also knew that some of the real people and true kings enshrined in the hall had fallen due to disasters, and the reincarnation of their true spirits had reached their limit, and they were completely gone.
As three melodious bells resounded throughout the cave, Lin Xuanzhi's final entrance ceremony was completed.
Shen Xinghe smiled and explained: "When you burn your real name on the jade book, all our true successors, true masters, and true kings will know it."
"This bell only serves to inform the creatures in the cave and the fellows in the inner sect."
The three of them paused at the pavilion in the temple, and the White Deer boy presented them with tea and fruits.
Shen Xinghe was the first to lick his face and said with a smile, "Master Guan, my disciple needs to trouble you if I have something to do."
Lin Xuanzhi naturally understood what it meant, and immediately took the Five Dragons Royal Order, Yuanjun Immortal Pot, Huangzhong Lihe and Colorful Gourd Vine.
Lingxuzi couldn't help but laugh and said: "It's a blessing."
As he said that, he picked up the yellow plum and gourd vine and threw them away, and the two objects disappeared into the void.
"Keep it warm in the Yin-Yang Creation Pond for three to five years, and then plant it in the cave."
Then he picked up the Five Dragons Royal Order, checked it and nodded to Lin Xuanzhi: "Get it in one hundred and twenty years."
As for the last Yuanjun Immortal Pot, Lingxuzi also looked at it carefully before untying the Taiqing Talisman and returning it to Lin Xuanzhi: "Take it with you. If he wakes up, he will naturally accept your love."
Lin Xuanzhi put away the fairy pot and couldn't help but thank Lingxuzi.
Then he saw Ling Xuzi looking at Shen Xinghe, but Lin Xuanzhi didn't know why.
Shen Xinghe pretended for a long time, then reluctantly took out the Taiqing Invisible Sword and said: "Can't we let the disciples play for a while longer? I still want to go to Baiman Mountain to hang out and find someone to catch up with."
"You! You are not allowed to go anywhere in the past two years. Take good care of your disciples!" Lingxuzi said with a helpless smile after confiscating the Taiqing Invisible Sword.
"When Xuan Zhi first enters the cave, you take him to Master Gu to receive the celestial book and rectify the Dharma. He will also be a master."
Shen Xinghe chuckled, and seeing Ling Xuzi nagging him again, he pulled Lin Xuanzhi away.
There are nine main peaks in Zixia Qingjing Cave. Among them, Xuan Peak is where Xuandu Palace is located. Needless to say, it has an ancient Taoist palace. It is the residence of the temple master and the place where the sect holds important ceremonies.
In addition, there are eight peaks such as Jiuxuan, Miaozhen, Zuowang, Zhixu, Daoyan, Chunyang, Wanxiang, and Tianxing. In addition to the first peak of each peak, there are also disciples of the true disciples who have settled on them.
As for the inner sect's disciples' residences, Taoist soldiers, spiritual beast mounts, medicine gardens, and guardian spirits, they are mostly located on the Thirty-Six Spiritual Mountains of Tiangang in the inner sect.
However, there have never been many Guanmen disciples in Xuandu, and the main peaks feel a bit empty. Even the eight leaders have four who travel around all year round, two are in seclusion, and only two are in charge. The dragon has its head but not its tail.
Fortunately, there are few people and few things to do in the mountains, and there is nothing to take care of.
Lin Xuanzhi's master, Shen Xinghe, also known as Kongming Taoist, was the leader of Jiuxuan Peak and the one who was away all year round.
Daoyan Peak is the place where scriptures are preached and Dharma is taught. It is also where Qingfeng Mingyue Pavilion is where Xuandu Temple collects books. The first one is the Gu Zhenren whom Lin Xuanzhi has heard about many times.
But when I actually met Lin Xuanzhi, I discovered that "Gu" was obviously not a surname, but an adjective.
The fourth floor of Qingfeng Mingyue Pavilion.
Wearing loose black robes and with disheveled hair, the white jade skeleton raised his head and looked at the two masters and apprentices who came up, and said in a mellow and gentle voice: "Congratulations to Xinghe on your good disciple."
Shen Xinghe smiled and said hello, then did not disturb the two of them.
Lin Xuanzhi took the initiative to step forward and said hello to Zhenren Gu: "Disciple Lin Xuanzhi has met Zhenren."
Gu Zhenren didn't feel the slightest sense of gloom, but instead gave people a feeling of vitality. Hearing this, he nodded and responded with a smile: "Okay."
Then he took a purple jade slip from the shelf behind him and handed it to Lin Xuanzhi.
"This is the part under the Yuanshen of the "Xuandu Secret Translation of Shangyuan Eight Scenery Cave Gods", including fundamental methods, secret techniques, and Taoist techniques."
Lin Xuanzhi watched the wind and clouds in the city of gods, was baptized by the laws, and made great progress in his sexual skills. Originally, he should only be awarded the golden elixir level.
The jade slips were not the original version of the Heavenly Book. They would disappear on their own after Lin Xuanzhi went back to receive them.
Master Gu then warned: "I have been here for hundreds of years. If you have any questions about practice, you can ask. After all, your master has always been restless and may not stay for a long time."
"Disciple understands, thank you Master." Lin Xuanzhi agreed with a smile.
Shen Xinghe retorted aggrievedly: "I am not as irresponsible as you think. I will keep an eye on his cultivation in the past three years."
"Three years..." Master Gu shook his head helplessly and waved his sleeves to send the two of them back to Jiuxuan Peak.
Shen Xinghe became even more lazy after returning to his home territory. After stretching, he said to Lin Xuanzhi: "There is a map in the side hall of Jiuxuan Palace. You can choose the location and open the cave yourself. You can go anywhere in the cave. It must be at Jiuxuan Peak. If you are short of something, go find it in the mountains yourself. If you don’t have one, use it, or go to Wanxiang Peak to exchange it.”
"I'm very tired as a teacher, so I'll go and rest for two months."
"Practice well and my teacher will look after you!"
After patting Lin Xuanzhi on the shoulder, Shen Xinghe turned around gracefully.
Lin Xuanzhi was speechless for a moment, then looked at the fairy mountain and the sea of clouds and couldn't help but smile.
Since then, there have been several cold and hot seasons. When I am immersed in practice, I feel like there are no armor in the mountains, and I don’t know the year when the cold is gone.
