Kunlun Mountains.
This mountain is known as the ancestral vein of mountains. It is hundreds of millions of feet high and thousands of miles wide. The mountains are undulating, the clocks are sharp, there are immortal birds and beasts, Langyuan, immortal flowers, spiritual roots and immortal grass. Although it is not as high as Tianzhu Buzhou Mountain, it is full of spiritual energy and immortal energy, and in terms of wealth, it is still higher than Buzhou Mountain.
Kunlun Mountain crosses the two boundaries of the ancient world and the east. Thousands of miles to the west, it is called West Kunlun, which is the dojo of the Queen Mother of the West, the head of the prehistoric goddess. Thousands of miles to the east, it is called East Kunlun, which is the dojo of the Sanqing Dynasty.
At this moment, a ray of light flashed, and three people were seen landing on a mountain peak in Kunlun. They were the newly sanctified Laozi and Xuanchen Xuandu.
Kunlun Mountain has thousands of peaks vying for beauty, all of which are magnificent and wonderful scenery, but this place is very different. There are three palaces towering into the clouds, with pavilions on each floor, beautiful bricks and jade tiles, and fairy sounds lingering.
"Brother!"
As soon as he landed on the ground, before Xuan Chen had time to take a closer look, he saw two people coming towards him. A middle-aged man on the left wearing a pure white robe, with a solemn face and a calm expression, and a handsome young man with sword eyebrows on the right. The eyes are majestic and majestic, giving people a cool and neat feeling. The person coming is none other than Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun and the leader of Shangqing Tongtian.
The Sanqings became saints one after another. When they met, they exchanged greetings and congratulations, and the saints communicated. Xuanchen naturally stood aside and did not dare to disturb them.
After some pleasantries, Tongtian first looked at Xuanchen and Xuandu and asked.
"Brother, are these two your new disciples? Earth Immortals? Their cultivation level is too low."
"Yes and no, this son's name is Xuandu, and he is the direct disciple of the chief disciple of our Human Religion. The other son's name is Xuan Chen. It is said that I owe my understanding of the method of establishing a sect to becoming a saint because of his inspiration, but I have no relationship with him. The relationship between master and disciple is a coincidence. He heard that you, third brother, wanted to teach Wu Lei, so he wanted to join your name. Since he was on his way, I brought him back."
My expression was indifferent, and I couldn't see any trace of sadness or joy. He first pointed at Xuandu, and then pointed at Xuanchen and said.
How could Xuan Chen dare to be reserved? He quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Disciple Xuan Chen pays homage to the saint. He has heard that the saint has teachings without distinction. Anyone who has the heart to follow the Tao can worship at the door of the saint. I beg the saint to show mercy and accept him as a disciple." "
People always like to hear good things, even saints are no exception. Hearing Xuanchen's words, Tongtian's face also showed a touch of joy. He vowed to educate all living beings and would not refuse. Moreover, this son was recommended by his eldest brother. After hearing the eldest brother's recommendation I still owe him some karma, so I might as well accept him as a personal successor.
"In that case, you will be my second disciple. When I traveled to the ancient world, I already had a disciple named Duobao. You will meet me later. However, your cultivation level is too low. I have the lowest level of Immortal Technique. You have to be in the realm of true immortals to practice. I think you should practice the golden elixir path taught by elder brother. When you enter the realm of true immortals, I will teach you the supreme immortal method."
"Disciple Xuanchen pays homage to the master. May the master live a long and holy life!" Xuanchen bowed again after hearing this, and then bowed to Laozi and Yuanshi.
"Meet the great uncle and the second uncle."
"Congratulations to my third brother on your new disciple."
Hearing this, I said to Tongtian, Yuanshi was noncommittal, but still nodded.
Xuan Chen was very confident that Tong Tian would accept his disciple. After all, there is no distinction between teachings, and it was not just a promise that thousands of immortals would come to the court in the future, but he did not expect that he would be his own disciple, and he would be ranked second.
You must know that although thousands of immortals came to the Jie Sect in later generations, most of them were ordinary disciples and registered disciples. During the Conferred God Period, the Jie Sect was also divided into inner and outer sects. The disciples of the inner sect all lived on Jin'ao Island with the leader of Tongtian Sect, such as Duobao Taoist, Our Lady of Jin Ling, Our Lady of Wudang, Our Lady of Turtle Spirit, Seven Immortals, and Ten Heavenly Lords of Jin'ao Island, etc.
The outer disciples opened dojos outside, such as Zhao Gongming, Sanxiao, Flame Immortal Luo Xuan, Plague Immortal Luyue, Four Saints of Kowloon Island, Empress Shiji, etc. For example, Sanxiao opened an dojo in Bixia Palace on Jieshi Mountain. Zhao Gongming opened a dojo in Luofu Cave in Mount Emei.
Although many Jiejiao immortals are famous, they are not direct disciples of Jiejiao. There are only eight direct disciples, namely Duobao Taoist, Jinling Holy Mother, Wudang Holy Mother, Guiling Holy Mother, Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, and Bixiao. Eight people.
At this time, the Sanqing family had not yet separated, and the relationship was still very harmonious. Tongtian accepted him as his direct disciple for the sake of my face. In the future, he would be ranked third in the Jiejiao family, with Tongtian and Duobao above him. In the future, Jinling Shengsheng, Holy Mother Wudang, Holy Mother Turtle Spirit, Zhao Gongming, Yunxiao, Qiongxiao, Bixiao and others all want to call themselves Second Senior Brother. It sounds good when you think about it.
Second senior brother? Why does this setting look so like a villain? Forget it, strength is everything, otherwise the first and second senior brothers would all be empty talk. Xuan Chen stopped thinking and stopped thinking.
The eight direct disciples of Jie Jiao are all innate beings. They are at least true immortals and mysterious immortals at the beginning, and it is possible for them to even be golden immortals. My qualifications can only be said to be average. I should hurry up and practice while no one has come to become my disciples yet. right way.
Kunlun Mountain is full of aura and is a good place for cultivation. Even without the sermons and blessings of saints, Xuan Chen broke through to the realm of immortals in just ten years.
The path to immortality is rugged, and each time you reach a higher level, it takes more time, often multiplying by several times or dozens of times. When you reach Daluo, quasi-sages are even measured in Huiyuan.
This is not to mention the bottlenecks, inner demons and resource problems encountered on the way to practice, so the further you go, the more difficult it becomes. Monks with higher realms often spend thousands of years in retreat at a time. Just like a pyramid, those who can stand at the top of the tower There were very few people.
The road to immortality is long, and only those with a firm heart and the ability to endure loneliness can reach the top.
In the past ten years, Xuanchen has not only focused on cultivation. After all, cultivating immortals is not only about fighting and killing, but also about being humane and worldly, so he will go to Sanqing every once in a while to pay his respects.
I also met other people on Kunlun Mountain, first of all, his cheap senior brother, Taoist Duobao. Taoist Duobao is the incarnation of the innate Duobao rat. He became a disciple long before the leader of Tongtian became a saint. Now he is in the late stage of Golden Immortal. In terms of cultivation, he is just easy-going, generous and courteous to others, and there is no trace of the Tathagata Buddha in future generations.
Secondly, there is the disciple of Chanjiao, Taoist Nanji and the white crane he raised. There are no shadows of the twelve golden immortals now. Nanji, like Duobao, was a disciple before Sanqing became a saint, but now he has the image of a middle-aged Taoist. , far different from the image of an immortal with white hair and white beards in later generations, and his current cultivation level is in the late Golden Immortal stage.
Although Anji is also polite, he doesn't talk much. Xuanchen greets him politely every time he sees him. He has a good relationship with the white crane he raises. He occasionally picks some fairy fruits from Kunlun Mountain to feed, but he just doesn't know. Is this White Crane the White Crane boy from the period of becoming a god in later generations?
As for Xuandu of the Human Sect, although they were both born in the human race, they have different personalities. After arriving at Kunlun Mountain, they concentrated on training. In the past ten years, Xuanchen has only seen Xuandu twice, and the last time he broke through to the realm of immortals.
Yes, Xuandu was born to be an immortal. It stands to reason that everyone was created by Nuwa and their qualifications should be similar. However, Xuandu broke through to the realm of immortals two years earlier than Xuanchen.
In the past few years, some people have come to Kunlun Mountain to become their disciples. Master Taiqing has no plans to accept disciples. Master Yuanshi’s requirements are too high, and no one who comes here likes them. As for his master, Master Tongtian, he accepts all comers. There are more than ten, but most of them are unknown people from later generations. There are only two people whose names are passed down from later generations, namely Jinling Holy Mother and Wuyunxian.
The Holy Mother of the Golden Spirit is the form of the innate Geng Metal Qi, and the transformed form is the Golden Immortal. Not only is she extremely beautiful, but her qualifications are also considered to be among the best in the entire prehistoric period. The leader of Tongtian naturally accepted her as his direct disciple, and Xuan Chen and her often interacted with each other. Although she was gentle and polite every time they met, Xuan Chen could tell that she was a little dissatisfied with being a senior brother to a guy like him who was not even a golden immortal, but he didn't show it.
Wu Yunxian is a golden-bearded turtle in the form of a fish. His qualifications should be about the same as Xuanchen's. He can only be considered average. He looks stern but is actually gentle and polite and easy to get along with. However, he has not been accepted as a direct disciple, just an ordinary disciple.
As for the others, they are just registered disciples.
After reaching the realm of immortals, Xuanchen was finally able to practice some of the spells recorded in the Golden Pill Avenue, such as avoiding dust, removing dirt, escaping from the earth, controlling objects, soaring into the clouds, etc. However, although they were just some small spells and not great magical powers, they were still Xuan Chen was very happy.
In the realm of immortals, one has a lifespan of ten thousand years. As long as Xuan Chen does not commit suicide, it is not a problem to live for ten thousand years.
Those who reach the True Immortal Realm have a lifespan of 30,000 years, the Mysterious Immortal Realm has a lifespan of 50,000 years, and the Golden Immortal Realm has a lifespan of 100,000 years. Only when one reaches the Golden Immortal Realm can one's lifespan exceed one yuan.
As for Taiyi Jinxian, he has to practice three flowers and five qi. Every time he practices one more qi, his longevity increases by one yuan. After practicing five qi and gathering three flowers, he will reach the realm of Daluo Jinxian. By the time he reaches Daluo Jinxian, he has transcended the three realms and is no longer in the five elements. In theory, he has the same life span as heaven and earth, and the same age as the sun and moon, achieving immortality. As long as there is no external force or the spiritual energy is exhausted, he will live forever.
However, all things are born to nourish people, and people have nothing to repay the sky. There is a limit to the carrying capacity of the ancient world. When it reaches a certain level, tribulation will be generated between heaven and earth, and tribulations will be produced, such as ferocious beasts and dragons. , lich calamity and so on.
In his previous life, Xuanchen had also read many ancient novels, many of which were about the protagonist's advancement in realm leading to the advancement of the world. However, even in the ancient world of gods and demons, the law of conservation of energy must be followed. Spiritual energy will not be generated out of thin air. There are signs of the world's offerings. Perhaps the depletion of spiritual energy in later generations and the advent of the Age of Ending Dharma come from this.
The number of the poles of heaven is nine. In the past, Hongjun Taoist ancestor gave a lecture in Zixiao Palace and said that there are nine positions of heavenly saints. Hongjun Taoist himself occupies one, and the heavenly way escapes one of them. After that, he gave Hongmeng Ziqi, the foundation of seven saints. , it is estimated that this is also the reason.
As for the earth and humanity, many prehistoric novels have also written about them. For example, many people in Houtu say that they are earth saints, and many people say that they are heavenly saints. Chen's current level cannot verify whether it exists, but even if it exists, it is limited by the prehistoric world itself, and there must be many restrictions.
Although heaven, earth, and man are tied as three talents, and coincide with the five elements of heaven and earth, there are still differences. In his previous life, Xuanchen followed an old Taoist priest and read the "Book of Changes" and many Taoist canons.
The number of the five elements is the number of the five elements, which is water one, fire two, wood three, metal four, and earth five, which is also called the number of Xiaoyan. One, three, and five are yang numbers, and their sum is nine, so nine is the extreme number of yang. Two and four are yin numbers, and their sum is six, so six is the extreme number of yin. The numbers of yin and yang add up to fifteen, so when transformed into Luo Shu, the numbers vertically, horizontally, and diagonally are all fifteen, which is the number of yin and yang and the five elements. Therefore, in the Book of Changes, nine represents the Yang Yao and six represents the Yin Yao.
The sky is yang and the earth is yin, so the number of the poles of the earth is six. Therefore, even if there are earthly saints, there are only six at most. As for the human world, it is not clear.
Being so ambitious is not conducive to practice. Xuan Chen just thought about it and continued to practice in seclusion. After all, as a second senior brother, it is not a problem for all his junior brothers and sisters to have higher cultivation levels than him.
