Chapter 213 The Daoist

The suzerains of the Qing Dynasty were surrounded by a sea of ​​thunder and couldn't get away. Suddenly, someone urgently begged for mercy:

"We didn't mean to be enemies of the imperial court! The patriarch is really pressing too hard. If we don't join the patriarch, our orthodoxy will be cut off!"

"They want to replace us and usurp our orthodoxy! We are not afraid of death, really"

Ji Xiang pointed his finger, and suddenly a thunderbolt hit him. The suzerain fell to his knees on the spot when he was hit by the lightning.
"Ji Daoist! Please spare your life."

The suzerain vomited blood, looked ashamed, and begged for mercy. Ji Xiang's tone was calm: "I have heard similar words from the eight suzerains. Don't say that you are not afraid of death, and don't say that you are afraid of being replaced by the orthodoxy. What they teach, all the methods of Maoshan are derived from the ancient sect of the Shangqing, unless you yourself say that your methods have nothing to do with the Shangqing."

"Fifteen suzerain, you belong to the Tianxin sect, can you tell me?"

Ji Xiang looked at the fifteen sect masters. The latter's complexion changed, and he said hastily, "Although he belongs to the Tianxin sect, he also went to Maoshan to practice the Shangqing Heart Sutra. It can't be said that it has nothing to do with it."

Ji Xiang nodded: "That's it. The fifteen sect masters of Tianxin Sect have all expressed their views. What else can you say?"

For a moment, the fifteen suzerains looked embarrassed, and the surrounding suzerains also felt a little bit resentful.

Ji Xiang waved his hand, this action frightened the suzerains so much that they were about to hold back the magic formula, but Ji Xiang was stunned and sneered:
"I don't want to entangle you too much. Now I just want to ask you something."

"Bi Yougong, does it have anything to do with your Shangqing behind the scenes?"

All the suzerains shook their heads, and one suzerain explained: "Although the patriarchs asked us to stand with them, we really don't know about Biyou Palace. We don't know what you want to ask."

"What the Lord of the Mountain says, that's what it is. The Patriarchs didn't tell us anything else about Biyou Palace."

The other suzerains nodded one after another, and there was a lot of noise here for a while, all trying to excuse themselves, and tried their best to prove that they really did not know any new news about Biyou Palace.

"It seems that you have not been attracted by your ancestors as confidantes!"

Ji Xiang sneered, and all the suzerains lowered their heads: "We are all forced, so it can't be regarded as sincerity."

"Our strength is of no use to the Patriarch, so naturally they won't tell us important news."

Ji Xiang was a little impatient: "Since you don't know, forget it. Where is the previous Maoshan Daozi? I will take him away."

"This!"

Now the suzerains gave up a little bit, and looked at each other in dismay, showing unspeakable expressions, Ji Xiang narrowed his eyes, and with a thought, the sea of ​​thunder around him boiled and rolled!
The suzerains hurriedly explained together, chattering endlessly, Ji Xiang scolded angrily, and there was a sudden silence.

"Old fifteen, tell me!"

Ji Xiang called the names, and the fifteen suzerains could only secretly say that they were unlucky, but they didn't dare to disobey, so they could only bite the bullet and say:
"Daozi is related to my Taoism in Maoshan. The owner of the mountain is not here. I will offend the patriarch, so it is not good to give Daozi to you."

Ji Xiang couldn't help laughing: "I just heard you say that the patriarch is not afraid of the court, so it is true."

The faces of the suzerains suddenly changed greatly, panicked, and immediately pushed out the person who said this just now!

"Old Eighteen said it, not us!"

"The Taoist master is clearly aware, I am so loyal, I dare not betray the imperial court!"

The Eighteenth Suzerain's face was as ugly as if he had eaten a dead fly, but Ji Xiang didn't care: "I don't care who you said, when he said it, you didn't object too much."

"No objection is tacit consent."

Now the suzerains collectively froze.

Ji Xiang's face also changed all of a sudden!
"So you are really afraid that the patriarch is not afraid of me? It's ridiculous! The county magistrate might as well take care of it now. I'm right in front of you now. You're all going to die if I attack you. Your patriarch has to cross the barriers of two realms to chase you down. Can't tell which is more important?"

"Moreover."

Ji Xiang's tone was stern at first, but then turned gentle again:

"Maoshan Daozi is the key to your ancestor's descent. The mountain lord disappears, and this Daozi is left. You give Daozi to me. Your ancestor will look for me when the time comes. It has nothing to do with you. You are not afraid that your ancestor will find you Trouble, can you throw the trouble to me now, isn't that a good thing?"

"I'm helping you, I didn't expect you to be so shameless!"

"I'm a good talker, as long as I don't get angry."

Threats and persuasion combined, the suzerains were already facing a dilemma at this time. When they heard what Ji Xiang said, some people began to agree and nod, whispering, saying that it would be better to follow Ji Xiang's wishes and hand over the Daozi to Ji Xiang. up.

"The Taoist master is right. Why should we leave the Taoist here, otherwise the patriarch descends and troubles us again, and even his life is in danger. Why take this risk."

"That's right, the union of the supernatants does not need a Taoist to maintain it. Now is a tense moment. It is completely reasonable to give up a Taoist in exchange for the continuation of our Taoism."

More and more people think that the present is more important, and since the Daozi is gone and the Kunlun Cave is destroyed, the Zhuhuo Palace has no means of descending, and they can run away calmly. If it falls, the signboard of the Shangqing School will not fall.

The suzerains were willing to hand over Daozi to Ji Xiang, but Ji Xiang still asked the fifteen suzerains to bring people, and soon Daozi was brought, but the appearance of this little Taoist boy was much haggard compared to last time.

"I have seen Daoist Ji."

Maoshan Daozi's mental state is not very good, Ji Xiang asked directly:
"Do you know the relationship between Biyou Palace and your Shangqing sect?"

Daozi was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Now even the suzerains are confused, but this melon belongs to their own family, so it is not good to ask at this time, sometimes it is rare to be confused.

"Where Biyou Palace is located, can you show me the way?"

Maoshan Daozi nodded slightly again, but shook his head slightly:
"I can show you the way, but the place where Biyou Palace is located is extremely hidden. Only people in Xiamao Mountain know where it is. I know a place that is important in Xiamao Mountain. I can go with you."

He looked back at the suzerains again. At this time, many of the suzerains looked a little ugly, but some people said falsely:
"Today, Daozi left with the Taoist master. In the future, he doesn't have to worry about the ancestor's blame, and the future is bright, the future is bright."

"We are waiting for today to inherit the merits of Daozi. On the day when the Qing Dynasty is revived, we will welcome Daozi back. At that time, the Taoist master will definitely perform meritorious deeds for Daozi, report to the imperial court, and reward him with honors, which will honor the Taoist system."

"I'll wait, send Daozi respectfully."

Ji Xiang took him away, carrying the coffin with one hand and catching people with the other. The sea of ​​thunder gradually dissipated, and Ji Xiang flew away in the clouds, leaving only faces that were grateful for the rest of his life after the catastrophe.

"It's really interesting. It's up to you whether you want to stay or not. I asked them to hand you over, and they handed you over. How do you feel now?"

Ji Xiang's tone was sneering, like those villains who have done evil things.

Maoshan Daozi said calmly:

"Entering the door of practice is like a rootless duckweed, and I have been wandering for a long time."

"It's just falling with the water, walking with the water, reaching a certain place, stopping once, arriving at a certain place, and slowing down."

Ji Xiang's eyes moved slightly, and just as he was about to say something, suddenly the inner scene god card responded!

[Dao Xing: It exists in the true pole and prepares all things.All living beings are not the Tao, and they can be cultivated to obtain the Tao. 】

[It is easier for people with a strong Dao to achieve Taoism and become immortals. For the use of various spells, the emphasis is on "forgetting" rather than "remembering", and they can be used naturally, and the effect is better. 】

[In normal practice, the higher the practice, the lower the Taoist nature, and the longer the retreat time. This is because the practice must produce words, and the words must become scriptures, and the Taoist nature is spontaneous perception rather than Comprehension of scriptures. 】

[The words in the scriptures and classics, as well as the nature itself, may be tampered with, but the nature of Tao remains unchanged. 】

[The ancient immortals of the Lingbao sect talked about this, and pointed out that by cultivating the mind and mind, you can return to the pure and natural nature, that is, restore your own Taoism, but you must cut off your emotions and desires to return to the state of simplicity and innocence. What you need to maintain your mind are scriptures and classics, so while your Taoism is being restored, it will gradually be lost. 】

[Lingbao sect keeps secret about the existence of Taoism and the main practice methods, and hardly talks with outsiders. 】

[Enlightenment by those who are close to the Tao: People who are close to the Tao can be inspired, called "Tao Po" or "Enlightenment" or "Sincere".There is a certain chance to restore and grow your lost Tao. 】

[Use Tongtian Mingyan to strip off his body and spirit, or refine this person into a elixir, which can greatly increase his Taoism. 】

"Taoism.!"

The harvest this time is really a surprise. Ji Xiang never expected to meet such a character with a special entry. This is simply a golden legend drawn by drawing a card.

No wonder the Patriarchs of the Qing Dynasty valued this kid.

Maybe they don't know the existence of Taoism, and Shangqing and Lingbao are not of the same family, but this kid has the characteristics of enlightenment, which is enough to make him a Taoist existence.

Young, young, with a lot of experience.

After Ji Xiang thought about it, he was actually a person over a hundred years old, although when he was bragging, he lied that he was a thousand years old.
As for the last entry, Ji Xiang just skipped it.

If he saw a person with talent and wanted to kill or eat him, then he was no different from those people in Li Shanhe.

Above the clouds and mist, Ji Xiang asked Daozi to tell a lot of things that happened before, including the relationship between Biyou Palace and Shangqing. After listening, Ji Xiang also sighed deeply:
"It's not my guess. The immortals in Lishanhe are really good at finding things. But how do you know this, don't those old immortals regard you as their confidant?"

Maoshan Daozi explained: "Although I fainted before, those who wanted to use my body to hide my soul because of the descending of the immortals. It is the third patriarch who is going to descend, and he talked with the mountain master before, I heard all these voices .”

"Actually, I still need to thank the Taoist Lord. If it wasn't for that lady Hou who swore to die to enter the supernatant, I wouldn't have had so much time to recover my consciousness. The third patriarch wouldn't be busy with the new Taoist, and the short Put me aside."

"After the virtual form of the third ancestor disappeared, I woke up, and it was the Taoist master who saved my life."

Ji Xiang said disdainfully: "Your ancestors still have a lot of tricks. For the sake of the ancestral scriptures of the Qing Dynasty, even the orthodoxy of the mountains and rivers can be discarded, and even broken up and restarted! If I get your ancestral scriptures, what do you say? , do I count as your real patriarch?"

Maoshan Daozi showed a weak smile: "If you have obtained the Ancestral Sutra of the Shangqing and practiced it, then you are naturally the ancestor of the Shangqing."

"But when the ancestral scriptures will be born and where they will be, these things are only known to the patriarchs. I and other cultivators can't know, and they won't let us know."

The clouds and mists were rolling, and Ji Xiang's technique of riding clouds and fog was too slow. At this time, a group of birds were flying in the sky. Looking at Ji Xiang, who was walking on clouds and mists, it was strange that Mao Shan Daozi saw this scene and felt emotional:

"Twilight travels to the North Sea, eats the morning dew and eats the clouds and clouds."

His haggard face regained some of its color, Taoist nature gradually restored the vitality in his body, and even affected Ji Xiang.

Ji Xiang felt a flash of light in his mind, and the true meaning of the three teachings actually started to operate automatically, and an improvement method for the technique of flying through the clouds and riding the fog emerged.

This surprised Ji Xiang!

"This is Enlightenment!"

"Is this Taoism?"

Ji Xiang felt that he had found a treasure now!

Originally, he just casually captured Maoshan Daozi to be a tour guide, but he didn't expect this kid to be so talented!

Ji Xiang got a little inspiration from just a thoughtful sentence. Ji Xiang was amazed by this talent, and felt that this kid should not return to Shangqing.

According to the improved method that just emerged, Ji Xiang used the sea of ​​clouds in the sky to integrate his own clouds and mist into it, and immediately soared and rode the wind. The sea of ​​clouds rolled like a big wave, and the wind blew like sailing in the sea. city.

"Six of the 72 sects in Xiamao Mountain gather here."

Ji Xiang took a look at it. Although this magic eye was a low-level spell derived temporarily, the most basic divine light and demonic aura could still be seen without covering up or changing it.

"What kind of city is this city? Why do I feel a little strange? Isn't this a city in the world?"

"The divine light is floating inside, it doesn't look like a place where sorcery gathers. Of course, my magic eyes are not very useful, can you give me an explanation?"

Maoshan Daozi said: "The six great sects from Xiamaoshan are here. They did not participate in the killing activities of Biyou Palace, but the owner of the mountain once speculated that there must be an undercurrent surging below the seemingly calm water."

"I once heard that there was a big epidemic in the city where the Six Great Sects are located, and many people died. However, not many people mentioned this epidemic afterwards, and some people have never even heard of it."

Ji Xiang looked at this strange big city. The ashrams of the six sects were all in the city. Legalism and Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism were different. They were sects developed from the folk, with their own unique spells, and they lived together with the people.

"To cover up the disappearance of the population, the pandemic is indeed a very good reason."
