God and mystery

Chapter 297 Take advantage of his illness to kill him
"Why did Master leave Yinxian Sect and enter Tongwei Sect?"

"What does it mean to leave? Tongwei was originally a branch of Yinxian. I have established many sects. Have you heard of Wushan sect? At that time, there were all demons inside."

"Demon?"

"What's so strange about a demon? You're still a demon. Compared to a demon, a demon is more intimate."

Ji Xiang took little girl Shen and followed Zhang Sanfeng to leave from the mountain gate. He flew into a secret place, deep in the valley, and there was the sound of reading. There was a road into it, which was built by the imperial court in the past. One of the [-] Wudang roads in Wudang, the ground is covered with boulders and stretches forward, not far from the microcosm, the gate is small, there are seven tile houses, and the incense is very strong.

"Who's reading?"

Miss Shen raised her head and asked curiously, while Zhang Sanfeng showed a little energy, clapped his hands and said to Ji Xiang: "She can hear that voice, it's really good, the child you sent by the celestial master can also hear it last time, bring it with you." Inviting two people with excellent roots, these are two great things you have done for our sect."

"Grandfather, what is this voice?"

Miss Shen also immediately began to establish a relationship. As soon as the grandfather called, Zhang Sanfeng's eyebrows relaxed, and his mood became better:

"Tongwei Sect was established during the Chenghua period. It was originally a place where hermits and ghosts practiced."

"What you hear is the sound of his reading when he stayed here. The sound is engraved in the cliffs and rocks, and it has not stopped for nearly a hundred years."

The little girl was astonished.

During the Chenghua period, it was really very early.

Ji Xiang is also aware of this hidden ghost, and it is said that he has cultivated to the realm of pure yin, which is the highest practice of ghosts and immortals, and corresponds to the realm of pure yang.

It is amazing to be able to cultivate to the level of pure yin in a world full of yang, but it failed when it hit the ascension, and the soul flew away and died, leaving only the aftertaste of this hidden scripture in the world.

"Listen to what you can hear. This scripture has a very significant effect on the stability of the soul."

"Since ancient times, there are countless people who have challenged immortals. Few people can succeed. It is too difficult for Biao Shanhe to become an immortal now."

As Zhang Sanfeng said, he spat at Ji Xiang again: "It's all the fault of you devils."

"Since the aura of heaven and earth is not abundant, the catastrophe of the magic test should be lowered appropriately."

Ji Xiang heard that the old man was such a rascal, so he also responded as a rascal: "Master's words are wrong. There is no need for a magic test for autopsy. You can easily sleep and wake up and you will be a god."

I thought in my heart, now that the autopsy is performed, the next time I wake up, it will be the 21st century.

"Master said it is difficult to become a fairy, but your practice is a real fairy."

Zhang Sanfeng didn't turn his head back: "How many immortals are left in the world?"

"Those who haven't woken up count?"

Ji Xiang asked.

Zhang Sanfeng shook his head: "No, I'm talking about awakened, how many immortals are there that you can know now, excluding those awakened by autopsy?"

"Two morticians, a celestial master, a Song fairy, and three others I don't know, and one of them has a strong evil spirit."

"It seems that one of the three people I don't know is you."

Ji Xiang replied, Zhang Sanfeng led the two into the Tongwei Temple, there were quite a lot of disciples in the hall, at a glance, seventeen were standing for punishment, and the children of artisans brought by the Heavenly Master from the Shuntian Mansion were among them, combing their hair. He looked like an adult, and then stood at the door with the scriptures in his arms, listening to a stern reprimand from a Taoist priest in Tsing Yi.

The Taoist priest in green wears copper rings on his ears, walnuts on his sleeves, and bells on his wrists. When they shake, they sound like thunder and thunder, which lasts for a long time.

Seeing Ji Xiang come back, the craftsman's child's eyes lit up immediately, but the Taoist priest in Tsing Yi was still reprimanding him, so he quickly lowered his head again.

Ji Xiang smiled knowingly, met the Taoist priest in Tsing Yi, and saluted each other.

"Junior Brother Ji completed his meritorious deeds and returned to Wudang? This is too soon."

"Brother Lian said, not yet, come back here."

Zhang Sanfeng interrupted the two of them talking about the past, and ordered to the Tsing Yi Taoist priest: "Bu Yun, bring those two sleepy little guys to my room."

The Taoist priest in Tsing Yi responded and asked many disciples to continue to stand for punishment, and then he went to the backyard of the Taoist temple.

At this time, the three entered the Guanzhong house, Zhang Sanfeng pulled three futons, sat down one by one, and said slowly:

"Other than that, is there anyone else?"

Ji Xiang thought for a while: "Xu Fu, he is still alive, but according to my impression, he is not one of the eight immortals."

"Xu Fu, oh, that old guy is really not a fairy. He was a fairy when he stayed in Dongying, and he is not a fairy when he comes out. He is just a false fairy. It is said that he is like a cat and a tiger. He imitated Dong Zhongshu back then, and he gathered the fortune of the country. In order to create a unity of the heaven and the way, the heaven and the world were still very close at that time, Xu Fu hoped to create an earthly kingdom of gods, but something went wrong and his own body was locked on the islands and he could not get out. If I can’t go back, I’m just dying in Biaoshanhe, and I don’t know the details.”

"I used to look for Dongfang Shuo and tried to join him, but in the end they turned against each other, and the alchemists were divided into two factions. Most of the alchemists who couldn't get along under Dongfang Shuo's command went to Xu Fu's, just like the Canghai Lord at the end of Qin Dynasty. Rubbish."

"Of course, I'm not talking about Xu Fu alone, there are other people, before the Jin Dynasty, they practiced differently from yours, so as a demon, you may not be able to sense them, just like you said corpses Jiexian doesn't need the magic test, after all, there was no such thing as the magic test before the Jin Dynasty."

"However, strictly speaking, the establishment of the real magic test was in the early Song Dynasty. Although the practice world in the Jin Dynasty already had the idea of ​​a demon king, the turmoil in the middle was too long. By the time of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, they had their own The way of cultivation does not rely on the favor of predecessors, so Tang Xian is special."

"Later in the Song Dynasty, in the previous practice, doing good and bad things was all based on one's own mind. Until then, some people came out and said that this is not good, and it should be more standardized, so they received the god of Yuanshi Tianzun. Where did I finally succeed in bringing in a group of heavenly demons, so there was a magic test."

Ji Xiang was thoughtful: "Is there any way to become an immortal other than corpse dissection?"

Zhang Sanfeng: "I'm going to talk about the Earth Immortal here."

"Earth Immortals, the Golden Core Dao, do not have the art of Heavenly Immortals. Now, we use the cultivation of Golden Cores as proof of entering the Earth Immortal level, and use the ascension as proof of entering the Heavenly Immortal level."

"Ge Hong said that when the form and spirit are in harmony, it is a person or a thing; if the form and spirit are separated, it is a spirit or a ghost."

"The way of immortality depends on the appearance of both separation and unity! To be together is to ride a cloud and ride a dragon, which refers to heavenly immortals: to be separated is to disintegrate the corpse, and to dissociate the corpse, and to dissect the immortal! The heavenly immortal is for life, and the corpse is for death. Taoism Confucianism’s practice is not the art of the mean like Confucianism, but the art of yin and yang that is polarized. If you want to achieve great achievements, you must either live or die!”

"As for the earth immortals, they have neither the form of corpse dissection nor the talent of heavenly immortals. They just walk around in the world without great supernatural powers. In fact, it is the middle way. It is for those who can neither become heavenly immortals nor dare to perform corpse dissection. The road of preparation is the way of practice today, that is, the art of golden core."

"So, some monks who are not yet full of heavenly immortals and earth immortals will gradually decay in form and spirit. This is because the earth immortals rely on refining their shapes to stay in the world. Rotation, miasma encroachment, infiltration of various filthy gases, incense poisoning and many other phenomena, and gradually decay.”

"As for those monks who have cultivated to the shape of a half-celestial being, such as Xu Fu, his body and spirit must have changed many times, because their body and spirit no longer belong to the human form of the world, but have the form of a fairy, but it is not a good example. There is no environment to support the immortal form, so the decay of form and spirit is a normal phenomenon. When the form decays, the mind will also decay, and finally become a monster that is neither human nor immortal."

"The same is true for the immortals who descended to the human world. When they arrive in the human world, they are relegated immortals. The accomplished immortals in the human world can go up to the mountains and rivers, but they cannot come down easily. Even if they come down, they need to destroy the former immortal form and then turn back The same is true for your own realm."

"These immortals before the Jin Dynasty, due to the inconsistent practice methods at that time, some of them cultivated the complete form of immortals, but they did not have the great power of immortals. They stayed in the world for a long time without immortal powers, and finally disappeared. At the foundation of existence, there is only an unconscious illusory form and spirit left. At this time, it is no longer possible to say that they are still alive; They are called False Immortals, but because they do not have the appearance of immortals, they are not worthy of the title of Immortals. False Immortals are just our real immortals’ collective name for them, and it is actually inappropriate to say that they are immortals.”

Ji Xiang suddenly realized.

It turns out that the so-called false immortals and false immortals, as shown on the inner scene god card on the second turn elixir, mean this!
Living in one place and not being able to move, calling immortals false!Immortals are unrestrained, traveling in the sea and living in Kunlun at night, and those who only possess the power of immortality in a certain place are false immortals.

Decaying form and spirit, those who have nothing but power are called false!Because the nature of immortals is immortal, and those who are corrupted are not immortals, so it is said that those who are powerful and invisible are false immortals.

At this time, the tile house door slowly opened.

The Taoist priest in Tsing Yi brought the two men over. They closed their eyes and walked in like controlled puppets. Zhang Sanfeng stretched out his hand again, and two rotten futons flew out from under the statue of Sanqing. He sat down on the futon, lowered his eyebrows, closed his eyes tightly, and breathed steadily, but he couldn't wake up as if his three souls had been broken.

Ji Xiang also saw his own three corpse gods, and the three little corpse gods wandering behind them. They had lost their feet and looked helpless like wandering souls, but they had no self-awareness. Order to act, at this time the three gods returned to their positions, turning into three incense sticks and returning to Ji Xiang's body.

Zhang Sanfeng stroked his beard: "It's strange, are these three corpses yours, or my disciple's?"

Ji Xiang inhaled the incense and responded respectfully, "It's mine."

"I have the technique of three dead bodies, so naturally I can use it on myself."

Zhang Sanfeng's expression changed immediately, he pointed at Ji Xiang and said, "That's why the old Taoist is most afraid of things like you!"

The Taoist priest in Tsing Yi was a little puzzled at this moment, why did his teacher point at his junior brother and curse here, and even said "this kind of thing".

Zhang Sanfeng looked at the Taoist priest in Tsing Yi, waved him to go out, Tsing Yi retreated, Zhang Sanfeng scolded again: "The old Taoist managed to kill the three corpses, I'm afraid that meeting something like you will make the three corpses of the old Taoist regenerate!"

Ji Xiang couldn't help laughing: "That's right! Master is the immortal who cuts corpses, so this is where the disciples are afraid."

Lu Wang once mentioned that there are many ways to become immortals, and killing the three corpses is one of them, and it is relatively harsh. It cannot be achieved without great perseverance, because the god of corpses is said to be sent by heaven to monitor each person's body The gods and spirits of the human body have the same root and origin as the human body itself, and it is difficult to kill them, but once the three corpses are cut off, the name of death can be eliminated.

Seeing Zhang Sanfeng's serious face, Ji Xiang quickly changed the subject and talked about the Taoist priest in Tsing Yi:
"I never thought that Senior Brother's aura is introverted, the divine light is gone, and only a little light is left on the brows. It is obviously a great achievement in refining the gods, and it is not far from the appearance of the pure sun state that emits light."

"Then you want to open the door for him?"

Old man Zhang was not angry.

"That's not good, the disciple hasn't cultivated to that level yet."

Ji Xiang is also frank that his cultivation is not enough.

Zhang Sanfeng wants Ji Xiang to open the door for Lian Buyun, but Ji Xiang has no way to help people cheat in the exam. At most, he will interfere with the little devil's exam, and the big devil will interfere in the exam, like King Lu. In that case, the examiner would need to commit a serious crime, and the demon kings of the heavens would come down from the lower realms, but that was because of his own small report.

Wanting to help people overcome the Tribulation of the Demon King, Ji Xiang thinks that his practice is still far behind.

As for Zhang Tianshi's time, it was purely an accident. It was an extra operation that could only be performed during the exam, and it could no longer be done again.

Zhang Sanfeng's expression changed when he heard Ji Xiang say that he was making a small report.

"You said you would still slander the devil?"

Ji Xiang: "It's just reporting all kinds of good and evil things in the world. How can it be called slander?"

Zhang Sanfeng: "Isn't this the work of the corpse god? You are not a demon at all, you are the corpse god becoming a spirit!"

Ji Xiang: "Master, you must be a big treacherous person who cuts three corpses and becomes a fairy."

Zhang Sanfeng was very angry: "Heavenly Demons can also practice!"

"Of course, Heavenly Demons have their own skills of cultivation."

"It's the Yuqing Yinjing!"

"!"

Zhang Sanfeng obviously didn't know the details of the Celestial Master's Chongju, but Ji Xiang was a little surprised when he mentioned the Yuqing Yinjing that the Heavenly Demon practiced, but immediately felt relieved.

"Why aren't you surprised when I tell you that your practice is exquisite?"

Zhang Sanfeng asked on purpose, Ji Xiang responded calmly: "There was once a Lishanhe Shangqing Immortal who mentioned the name of the Heavenly Demon Extinguishing Scenery Technique, and clearly stated that this scripture should not appear on human monks."

Zhang Sanfeng snorted, and then explained: "Heavenly Demon Extinguishing Scenery, Yuqing Yinshu, I have only seen it in classics in the past, and it is the first time I have met someone who can really practice it. It is said that people with great talents in Shangqing want to practice it. scriptures, but the results are extremely tragic, being devoured by all demons and splitting their souls to death."

"So I come to the conclusion that the Yuqing Yinshu is a scripture for the cultivation of heavenly demons, not something cultivated by mortals, but you also know that there is no Yuqing Dao in the world, only Taiqing Dao and Shangqing Dao, and the Yuqing Dao is the source of the Shangqing Dao , but it can also be said to be a branch, after all, the number of Yuqing monks is too small, so they are classified in the supernatant."

"While Yuqing has hidden books, Taiqing and Shangqing naturally also have hidden books. Among them, Shangqing Yinshu is Shangqing ancestral scriptures, also known as ancestral symbols."

Ji Xiang: "I have heard a little bit that it is said that the ancestors of the Shangqing have already appeared in the world, but I don't know where. The two branches of the Shangqing School are interfering in the affairs of the world. Yuqing cultivates demons, what does the Shangqing cultivate?" ?”

"Cultivating ghosts is the way of ghosts and gods."

Zhang Sanfeng stood up, pointed to the two people who were sent in and sat on the futon: "The situation these two people are encountering now is related to the technique of supernatant."

Ji Xiang looked at Feng Xiucai and Hu Xiaoshi, frowning deeply: "I have gone to Shangqing Maoshan and made a big fuss. I have never seen this kind of magic."

"Did you make a fuss about the supernatant?"

Zhang Sanfeng was taken aback: "You have the guts, do you know that behind Shangqing there are two big heavenly palaces, six small heavenly palaces, eleven ascending peaks, and two heavenly minds!"

"Don't look at Biao Shanhe and they are not as good as Tai Qingdao, Li Shanhe's power is not weak at all!"

Ji Xiang was surprised: "Killing the ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty and seriously injuring the third ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty, the disciples think that it is not that serious."

Immediately he thought of something, and suddenly said curiously: "Speaking of which, when I seriously injured the third ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty, I used your rootless technique."

"What! Rootless? Why do you know my rootless? In this world, except for me, everyone else who knows my rootless is dead. I didn't teach you!"

Zhang Sanfeng was taken aback. He passed down the rootless song, but he didn't pass on the rootless technique after the orthodox year. He even changed his name several times, and rejuvenated and grew up again several times , just to wash away Zhang Sanfeng's identity.

Ji Xiang claimed to have severely injured the third ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty with a rootless technique, and Zhang Sanfeng had no doubt that he was bragging.

"This matter is true, and my disciples never lie. In fact, there are many strange things about the Shangqing sect. They divided their own family members, went to snatch the Yinshan Dharma Realm, created the Palace of Biyou, and abandoned the sword of Qingping. Qing Yin Jing is the art of cultivating ghosts and gods, so it seems reasonable to say that Biyou Palace snatched the Yinshan Dharma Realm."

"You really hurt the third patriarch of the Qing Dynasty? But Xu Changshi!"

"It's Chief Xu."

"How did you learn my rootless technique?"

"The disciple is the Heavenly Demon. The Heavenly Demon possesses great wisdom. How can he fail to learn it? Once you realize nothingness, you will naturally master it."

Ji Xiang boasted breathlessly, and Zhang Sanfeng took a picture of a chapter without words, pointed at it and said, "You write it for me."

Ji Xiang melted a stream of lead gas from his body, circulated the root of heaven and earth, and wrote it on the white character talisman in divine script. When Zhang Sanfeng saw it, he lost his mind: "It's really my rootless talisman!"

"How can the secret of the hidden immortal be known by the demon!"

Then I was a little annoyed: "You hurt the third ancestor of the Shangqing with the rootless technique. I really don't know whether to laugh or scold. If it was in the past, I would definitely praise you, but now, how can the Yinxian sect provoke you? Such a giant!"

Ji Xiang was stunned. Just as he was about to apologize, Zhang Sanfeng beat his chest and stomped his feet, sighing:

"You can't beat people to death if you fight like this!"

"Wait, I'll send a message to your ancestor Huolong Zhenren and ask him to assassinate the third ancestor of the Shangqing immediately, so that our Yinxian sect can be stable for a while! Take advantage of his illness and kill him. Get revenge on him before he revenges me."
