Chapter 853 The Eight Immortals Are Born at the End of the Volume
Chunyang Temple is a Taoist temple on Zhongnan Mountain.

However, unlike other Taoist temples, Chunyang Temple is located on a peak in the depths of Zhongnan Mountain.

The mountain wall at a right angle of nearly ninety degrees is simply not something ordinary people can climb up, and its height is even deeper into the clouds and straight into the sky.

If it was not known in advance that there is a Taoist temple above the clouds, it would be really difficult for anyone to think that there is a Taoist temple shrouded in smoke above the misty clouds.

Reminiscent of a fairyland, but also like a divine garden...

The specialness of the Pure Yang View can be seen, and the horror of creatures that can live at this height can be seen even more.

In fact, this Chunyang Temple is the residence of one of the many Taoist schools in Zhongnan—the Danding School.

According to legend, the history of the Danding School can be traced back to the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and the earliest theoretical basis is a Taoist book called "Zhouyi Cantong Qi".

In the period of various schools of thought, the Danding School incorporated part of Huang Lao's thoughts and opened up a practice path based on breathing qi and refining alchemy.

It was not until the birth of Baopuzi in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties that the Danding School reached its first peak, and it became a mainstream school from the original low-level Taoism.

Up to now, the Danding sect can barely be divided into two branches: outer alchemy and inner alchemy.

Waidan is to smelt lead and mercury and other ore medicines in a furnace to prepare the edible immortality elixir.

Inner alchemy generally refers to treating the human body as a "furnace", using one's own essence and qi as medicine, and using the spirit to burn it, and it is a combination of spirit and qi.

However, few people know that the Danding School actually has an inseparable relationship with Li Xuan, the first Yang God of Taoism.

Li Xuan, who was born in the pre-Qin period, was once a member of the Danding School.

It is also this talented genius who has brought the originally declining Danding School to its current height.

In a sense, the fact that the Danding Sect has the prestige it has today has an inseparable relationship with Li Xuan, the former "master".

However, being brilliant often also means being rebellious.

After practicing Xu He Dao, Li Xuan declared that the "Road of Dan Ding" has come to an end, this is a wrong road destined to a dead end.

So he does not intend to continue on this road, but to look at other roads.

To be honest, all masters who can establish schools are all those who have a long-term vision and are proficient in a hundred schools of thought.

For these people, although Li Xuan's remarks sound absurd, they are not something to be surprised by, and no one will expel the other party from the Danding Sect because of this.

Li Xuan's rebellion is rebellious. Apart from theory, his execution ability is also full.

After letting go of his rhetoric, Li Xuan began to practice his theory almost without stopping.

Or cheat, or steal, or rob...

Li Xuan offended almost all the sects at that time, just to get the Dao Zang in their hands.

Under such circumstances, no matter how much the elders of the Danding Sect loved Li Xuan, they could only be forced to announce that he would be expelled from the sect.

It's a pity that the various schools of thought are not a fuel-efficient lamp, so it is naturally impossible to accept such a unilateral "announcement" of the Danding faction.

As a result, the Danding School, which was once glorious for a while, entered a century-long decline. Even if there were several revivals during the period, its disciples never exceeded ten fingers.

In addition to the extinct Huifu sect and the Fulu sect, which has always been passed on as a single line, the disciples of the Danding sect who have been passed down can be said to be rare species at the panda level.

But just like the previous two sects, no one can deny the strength of the Danding faction, just like no one doubts whether Li Xuan still maintains contact with the Danding faction.

To put it bluntly, more than 90.00% of Taoist practices today are derived from the theories of the Danding School.

How did these theories spread?

This may have to ask Li Xuan who has stolen the classics of various schools of thought and has been trying to break the limit of the Yang God.

Especially after the saying that "If you want to pass on the Eight Immortals, teach the Tao of Quanzhen" has spread, every ambitious insider wants to compete for the fruit of the Eight Immortals.

Therefore, when the Danding Sect, which has not been born for a long time, accepts a new disciple, no one will ignore his existence.

......................................................................................................

Lu Yan, the youngest son of Lujia Village at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, his ancestral home is from Hezhong Prefecture, Puzhou, Hedong.

Legend has it that on the day Lu Yan was born, a black snake manifested in the sky, a black turtle appeared in the river, and the pure yang energy swept away the evil spirits in Baili.

With such obvious auspicious features, it is impossible for a practitioner to ignore its existence.

However, when the Zhongnan factions wanted to find out, the Danding faction, who seemed to have expected it, took Lu Yan away first.

And the person responsible for going down the mountain to pick up Lu Yan is the oldest elder of the Danding Sect, and also the living god with the longest lifespan known in the world—Zhengyangzi.

Zhengyangzi, whose real name is Zhongliquan, nicknamed Heguzi, and styled Yunfang (jidao).

In later generations, this Zhengyangzi also has a more resounding name-Han Zhongli.

As a disciple of the Danding Sect who was active in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Zhong Liquan has lived for 700 years, and has already surpassed the 500-year limit of heaven and man.

Theoretically speaking, even if Zhong Liquan cultivated into the Immortal Yang God, his physical body should have been extinct by now.

But in fact, Zhong Liquan has not yet had his body dissected, and there is no sign of the five declines of heaven and man.

like now...

In the towering Chunyang Temple, Zhong Liquan, with his big belly on his back, fanned a plantain fan, and with a smile on his face, he urged the disciples in the audience to study in the morning class.

Among these disciples are young adults who have grown up, and some who are still childish...

Among these disciples, a child who seemed to be only three or four years old was particularly eye-catching.

call!
I saw the boy coiled on top of the tuanpu with his eyes closed.

Golden flames were burning all over his body, and substantial vitality spewed out from his nine orifices...

A looming golden pill floated above his head, devouring the first ray of morning sun like a sea of ​​rivers.

"Nine revolutions of alchemy, the group of demons can be changed."

"Master Zu, his Nine-Turn Golden Elixir has been cultivated!"

Staring at Lu Yan's performance dumbfounded, Yue Yangzi, the elder sister who has been in the classroom for the longest time, couldn't help showing an envious expression.

Nine-turn golden elixir is the secret method of the alchemy tripod sect, and it cannot be cultivated without the body of pure yang.

Yue Yangzi practiced the method of pure yang with a female body, but it took a full 60 years to barely reach the eighth rank.

This Lu Yan had only entered the mountain gate for three or four years, but relying on his own pure yang energy that was so abundant that he could cheat, he forcibly cultivated the Nine-Turn Golden Elixir.

The gap during this period cannot be described in words.

"Chunyangzi really deserves to be the reincarnation of his master's uncle. This talent is simply too shocking."
