At the same time, Mount Tai, Nantianmen.
In front of a cliff with stone carvings.
The dead tree planted next to it bloomed with thunder flowers, just like a dead tree blooming in spring, pregnant with vitality.
The old Heavenly Master put his hands behind his back and looked at the lines of golden text on the cliff stone carvings, trying to understand the mystery.
Suddenly, he felt something in his heart, and turned his head to look in the direction of Longhu Mountain, with a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.
"The succession ceremony of the new Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain has begun..."
The old Heavenly Master whispered to himself, then walked towards Dai Ding, stood at the highest point of Mount Tai, and looked towards the direction of Longhu Mountain.
He just stood in the sky, blowing the mountain breeze, fluttering his robes, and stared motionless.
After a moment, the old Heavenly Master sighed, waved his sleeves, and a little spiritual light flew out of them.
With the appearance of this spiritual light, the breeze suddenly started blowing from all directions in the world around Mount Tai, and all gathered on that spiritual light.
In the blink of an eye, the aura merged into the breeze and quickly formed a figure.
It was none other than that kind-hearted teacher, Zhang Ruogu!
At this moment, the teacher stood in the void, with his back to the Heavenly Master, also looking in the direction of Longhu Mountain, standing motionless.
The old Heavenly Master looked at his old friend and couldn't help but look sad, and murmured, "Brother Ruogu, I owed you a favor that night on Tianmen Mountain.
The time has come for the matter you asked me to do before, and it will be settled today.
In the future, please don’t cling to me like your chess piece..."
At this point, the sadness in the old Heavenly Master's eyes grew stronger, but he couldn't help but laugh and curse.
"Of course, if you still want to play chess with me, you are welcome to come over at any time.
Even if it wakes me up in the middle of the night, it doesn't matter...it doesn't matter..."
The old Heavenly Master, who was originally "above the masters", would hardly repeat what he said.
But at this moment, the old master kept mumbling "it doesn't matter", as if he was talking to his old friend, and also as if he was comforting himself.
Because he knew that that little aura was the last trace of vitality left by his old friend in the world.
If even this bit of aura is extinguished, then the old friend will be completely gone, with no soul body and no breeze to accompany him.
And the old master standing in the void naturally heard the murmur of the heavenly master.
The old teacher didn't say much else. He just left a few words, waved his hand, looked up to the sky, laughed, and strode away.
"Brother Taoist, we will never see each other again."
The old Heavenly Master looked at the figure of his old friend, quickly disappearing at the end of the horizon. He couldn't help but stare blankly, and did not look back for a long time.
On the day when my master passed away, Heavenly Master was never sad.
Because he knew that the spirit of his old friend was still alive and still alive in this world.
And those breezes are the carrier of old friends.
When the teacher and his father traveled around the world and came to play chess with him, the Heavenly Master was not sad because there would be another chance to meet him in the future.
Only at this moment, when the figure of the old friend disappeared from sight, the figure of the old master suddenly became a little lonely and desolate.
And the white between his eyebrows seemed to be stained with a layer of ink that lingered for a long time.
…
The world only knows that Tianmen Mountain, where Tianshi Mansion is located, is the highest peak of Longhu Mountain.
Little did he know that on the top of Tianmen Mountain, there was a path leading to a short hill.
This small hill is the highest peak of Longhu Mountain and the back mountain of Tianmen Mountain.
On this back mountain, there is the presence of the tomb guard, and there are 203 hanging coffins that the world cannot see!
At this time, under the leadership of Zhang Kongming and other senior brothers, there were also many uncles and uncles accompanying them.
Qiheshan was surrounded by stars like a moon, and walked towards the small hill.
Behind him were many guests and fellow Taoists.
The formation was mighty, but very disciplined. No one was making loud noises, and no one was discussing in low voices.
Guests and fellow Taoists all walked on the mountain road with solemn expressions, as if they were on a pilgrimage.
They all know that the back mountain is a geomantic treasure of Longhu Mountain.
Non-disciples of Longhu Mountain are not allowed to go.
But there is a special situation where everyone is allowed to go to worship and offer sacrifices.
That is the day when generations of heavenly masters succeed to the throne!
Therefore, many guests and Taoist priests showed a bit of excitement and expectation on their faces, wanting to see what the back mountain looked like.
As everyone moved forward, a short hill soon appeared in front of them.
The scale of this hill is not large, like a square, and the stones are all made of granite.
At the end of this square, stands an ancient Taoist temple.
The Taoist temple seems to be growing on the edge of a cliff, becoming the center of the world in front of you.
Opposite the Taoist temple is the group of tomb cliffs.
"Guests from all directions, stop! Disciples from Longhu Mountain, enter the Tianshi Temple!"
Zhang Kongming's loud voice sounded again.
Many Taoist priests and disciples from Longhu Mountain first lined up on both sides to make way for a passage.
After Qi Heshan crossed the threshold of Tianshi Temple, they gathered together and walked into Tianshi Temple.
Inside the Celestial Master Temple, there are tablets of the Celestial Masters of past dynasties.
It is also the place where every new Celestial Master needs to come to worship on the day of his succession.
Worshiping the heavenly masters of past generations is also the first step in the succession ceremony.
Wait until all the Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain enter Tianshi Temple.
Many guests standing in the square stretched their necks again and looked inside, hoping to see what was happening inside.
There were also many guests who began to communicate with their eyes but did not dare to make any sound.
After all, the direction that everyone was facing was the tablet of the Heavenly Masters of the past generations in Longhu Mountain, so naturally they did not dare to be presumptuous and blasphemous.
Zhou Yixing, Zuo Zhishan and others stood at the front and could clearly see the scene happening inside through the gate of the Taoist temple.
Inside the Temple of Heavenly Masters, Qi Heshan was wearing a purple Taoist robe, standing in front of the memorial tablets of the Heavenly Masters of all generations, offering incense and worshiping.
Standing behind him were all his uncles and disciples, as well as many disciples, all holding three pillars of incense in their hands and saluting after him.
Zhang Kongming stood aside and shouted loudly, "It is midsummer, the Heavenly Master has succeeded to the throne, and it is an auspicious day.
Qi Heshan, the thirty-sixth generation grandson of the Han Celestial Master, is a disciple of Hezhong and a believer in Lusheng from the nine states of the Dragon Kingdom.
Prepare fragrant preserved flowers and fruits and present them to the Xuantan in Chen Zhai.
Inspiration: The Three Pure Saints, the gods of Haotian, the great emperors of the Five Mountains and Three Mountains, Emperor Xi and Nuwa, the three emperors and the five emperors, in front of the seats of the heavenly masters of all dynasties..."
As this loud shout rang out, it echoed in the sky above the back mountain, shaking the entire Tianmen Mountain as it buzzed and trembled.
In the group of tomb cliffs opposite the Taoist temple, a loud "rumbling" sound suddenly sounded.
The stone door of a cave opened and a rickety figure walked out.
This figure took one step and walked from the dark cave into the sun.
Looking carefully, behind this figure, there is actually a real bronze tripod suspended!
In addition, in his hand, he also held an ancient lamp that would last forever.
And as the tombkeeper looked towards the Tianshi Temple opposite, a loud shout resounded from inside the Taoist temple!
"Worship my master!!!"
Inside the Temple of the Heavenly Master, Qi Heshan was holding three pillars of incense, with a respectful and pious expression. He was the first to bow his head and bow to the Heavenly Masters of all generations!
The masters and uncles standing behind him, as well as many disciples, also followed him to worship!
In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color, and countless thunderbolts gathered in the sky above Tianshi Temple.
There are also colorful auspicious signs, cranes crowing, golden lotuses blooming... all kinds of magical phenomena emerge!
At the same time, all the 203 hanging coffins in the tomb cliff group vibrated and made a buzzing sound, which was like the response and recognition given by the heavenly masters of the past generations.
Among them, the last tomb of the Celestial Master trembled the most violently!
Just like the laughter of my old master, it penetrated the tomb cliffs, resounded through Longhu Mountain, and penetrated the world! ! (End of chapter)
