Kunlun one millet

Chapter 216

"Marquis Zhenming, please come in."

In a deep mountain valley, there are ancient sandalwood trees hanging on the left and right, and green pines extending branches. After Chu Mengchun chanted the mantra, the forest trees and vines in front of him slowly separated towards the two sides as if ordered, revealing a doorway with green light whirling around. The scene behind the door hazy.

Different from other blessed places, the Lingtai Ruins are hidden by the barrier formation. Even if you look down from the sky, it is just a dense mountain forest covered by clouds and mist.If you can't find the entrance and exit door, you will immediately fall into the maze, lose your bearings, and find it difficult to distinguish up and down.

If there are still people in the blessed land presiding over the operation of the formation, the enemies who break through the formation will be besieged from all directions.Even though the Xuanpu Hall declined suddenly in the last years of the Tianxia Dynasty, the disciples of Kemen could still rely on the Enlightened Nine Gates Formation guarding the Lingtai Ruins for decades.

Zhao Mi walked calmly and walked directly into the doorway. After the green light passed, he suddenly became enlightened. As far as he could see, there was a vast wilderness with undulating and gentle terrain.In the distance, you can see pavilions, terraces and pavilions dotted among rocks, springs, grass and trees. This scene alone shows the image of the fairy family living in seclusion and living in the mountains.

Lingtai Ruins are not tall and straight peaks, here the air is full but not intense.In the seemingly messy garden, the qi mechanism is combed in an orderly manner, and the orderly collocation of monarchs, ministers, assistants and envoys makes different types of sesame herbs coexist in one place without the slightest conflict.

The medicine fields and spiritual gardens of immortal cultivators are different from mortal farmlands. Spiritual plants and fairy grass often need to be nourished by abundant fresh air, so they cannot be planted in large quantities in the same area. The earth's air will be quickly depleted.

In addition, different spiritual plants also need different environments to promote their growth.Some like shade and don’t like humidity, some like sun and don’t like drought, some will wither when exposed to wind, and some need to be buried for many years before they can germinate. All kinds of physical properties are different, and they cannot be cultivated in the same way.Sometimes even the water used for irrigation has to be prepared separately, and it may be more difficult to serve than a living person.

Zhao Mi learned many methods of repairing the blessed land and rectifying the spiritual garden from the Xuanpu Jade Book, but because of his busy schedule, he rarely had the opportunity to prove it practically.Even if Liang Tao gave Zhao Mi the deed of geological survey of Yunyan Peak, he would have no time to stay at Yunyan Peak and complete it.

And when Zhao Mi remembered that his mother was the disciple of Xuanpu Tang, he couldn't help feeling a lot in his heart.Now that his experience has increased, the resentment towards his mother's early departure has long since dissipated.

The collapse of Xuanpu Hall may be due to Chongxuan Hall sitting idly by, but who can guarantee that they will be able to escape from the chaos of the end of Tianxia?Yunyan Peak, Fengming Valley, and the inheritance of immortality that have been destroyed since the end of Tianxia have never been missing.

Thinking about it in my own shoes, all my achievements in cultivation come from the teachings of the master of the sect. The collapse of the sect and the separation of the disciples, this feeling is comparable to the loss of a family.If there is nowhere to vent, it is not surprising that one's thoughts are not smooth for a while, and then turn into hatred and anger.

Zhao Mi thought again of the intention of his teacher Zhang Duanjing to forge the divine sword. He hoped to prevent the immortal family from interfering in the mortal world. If he thought about it carefully, the immortal cultivator should also keep quiet and get involved in disputes for all kinds of mortal fate. Tired, not quiet.

Looking at the blessed land of the fairy family in Lingtai Ruins, Zhao Mi also had some thoughts of being out of the dust in his heart.

"Wait! You monsters are not allowed to enter! Stop!"

It's a pity that Chu Mengchun's shout broke Zhao Mi's state of mind. Looking back, he saw the group of otter monsters rushing into the entrance hole, like a swarm of rats crossing the border, rushing into the Lingtai Ruins.Chu Mengchun went in without knowing it, and was so frightened that he sacrificed a chi button jade seal, intending to stop him.

But before Chu Mengchun could use it, a big black iron hand was placed on his shoulder, firmly clamping the movement of the air machine.Chu Mengchun turned his head in pain, and was surprised to see a tiger-headed general staring at him fiercely, as if he was about to open his mouth and bite his head off in the next moment.

"I invited them here." When Zhao Shu spoke, the group of otter monsters gathered around Zhao Shu's feet, each of them looked like a human being, holding cloth altar utensils behind their backs, and looked naive.

Chu Mengchun reprimanded: "Lingtai Ruins is a blessed place for immortals, how can a group of mountain monsters be allowed to run around? If the energy of the earth veins is disturbed and the spiritual garden of the medicine field is destroyed, how will Marquis Zhenming plan to repay it?"

"Don't mess around here." Jiang Ru also walked into the Lingtai Ruins at this time: "Difei Mountain is also a blessed place for immortal families. Doesn't our Jiang family still live in the mountains?"

Chu Mengchun was speechless for a while, and the majestic tiger general withdrew his big hand. Zhao Mi said, "Don't worry, these otter monsters are born to be good at sensing the earth's veins, and they also know a little bit about building a blessed place. I'll call them here. It's nothing more than helping to arrange the mandala... well, each of you go to find out the situation and find a suitable location for arranging the mandala."

After saying this, the otter demons put down their utensils, scattered in all directions, disappeared among the grass blades in a blink of an eye.

Chu Mengchun did not hide the disgust on his face: "It is not the work of the orthodox cultivator to drive monsters. Besides, it is rumored that you are the successor of the Tianxia Dynasty's praise officer. How can there be a praise officer like you?"

"Praise officials are not always the same." Zhao Mi said with a flick of his sleeves: "And you don't know much about praise officials, so just say a few words less, so as not to be ugly."

Chu Mengchun's face was flushed, and Jiang Ru sneered and said, "Since ancient times, there have been many masters of the immortal family who enlightened ghosts and ghosts, and promoted them to immortality. What's more, if you talk about driving monsters, you, Chu Mengchun, are not qualified to talk about others. In Qingyan County, there is no shortage of using monsters and ghosts for personal gain."

Jiang Ru is too aware of the children of this kind of aristocratic family, what she does can't be criticized by others, but if others do the same thing, they will often slander them.

It's just that after being pointed out by Chu Mengchun, Jiang Ru found that Zhao Mi and Liang Tao were more and more similar.When Liang Tao was patrolling the territory with his sword, he swept away the evil spirits in the south, and in the process subdued the Tianhu lineage who wandered in the world.Zhao Mi, on the other hand, opened altars to patrol the territory, destroying prostitutes, slashing tyrants, and subduing a group of rex demons by the way, instructing them in cultivation.

This is not to say that there is no difference between Zhao Mi and Liang Tao, but Jiang Ru found that the two people's life experiences and dealing with others gradually overlapped.In particular, Zhao Mi's words and deeds in front of Chu Mengchun were almost in an attitude of looking down from above, that kind of composure was almost consistent.

At this time, Lu Wangji also walked into the entrance with the qin in his arms. She was still cold and silent, but when Chu Mengchun saw her, he couldn't help but yell at her: "What is the true story of Fengming and the tune of the Suqin? flow!"

Lu Wangji didn't answer, but Zhao Mi said, "Chu Mengchun, it seems that you haven't fully comprehended the intention of the elder of Chongxuan Hall to send you to Lingtai Ruins."

"What's your intention?" Chu Mengchun snorted coldly, "Is it not enough for you to force me to this point?"

Zhao Mi slowly shook his head: "Lingtai Ruins is far away from the hustle and bustle, and it is the most suitable for cultivating the mind. You have been in the officialdom for too long, and your mood has long been dusted. Do you have the appearance of a disciple of the Immortal Family in Chongxuan Hall? If I say that I envy you, will you believe me?"

"Bullshit!" Chu Mengchun retorted sharply, "If you like Lingtai Ruins so much, you should stay here forever!"

Chu Mengchun felt that Zhao Mi just wanted to humiliate himself. No matter how good the Lingtai Ruins are, this piece of medicine fields and spiritual gardens will be there when you open your eyes.Chu Mengchun felt that he was in prison, and all this was thanks to Zhao Mi!
"Oh, I want to be quiet but I can't." Zhao Mi sighed: "You were arranged to come here, which means that the elders of Chongxuan Hall still have hope for you, but you yourself have wasted a great opportunity."

"Marquis Zhenming has great powers, so I don't think I need the help of a shallow person like me." Chu Mengchun couldn't bear to listen, so he cupped his hands casually, turned and left the Lingtai Ruins.

"It's really no progress!" Jiang Ru cursed after watching Chu Mengchun leave: "The Chu family has the most prosperous population, but there is no one worth looking at!"

Zhao Mi said: "If you don't teach, you can't succeed. After a person has indulged and fallen, it is meaningless to add blame. It is better to reverse the trend of decadence first."

Lu Wangji said softly, "A dead wood cannot be carved, and not everyone can be enlightened."

"That's right!" Jiang Ru agreed, "The chief ordered Chu Mengchun to guard the Lingtai Ruins, but he wanted to go out of the mountain to pretend to be a ghost. It's even worse than when he was the county guard. What does this kind of person tell him?"

"This shows that I'm not good at educating others." Zhao Mi felt helpless.

"However, I think Chu Mengchun seems to be more impetuous than before." Lu Wangji said: "He is good at serving the alchemy furnace. He used to be the county guard, and he was able to calm his mind and protect the fire. I saw him today. , but a little more impulsiveness of a marketer."

Zhao Shu frowned slightly. He had actually noticed something strange about Chu Mengchun, and considering that Lu Wangji had once served as his guest secretary, he should be more familiar with the changes in his words and deeds.

"Could it be that this is the consequence of turning to Shinto?" Zhao Shu secretly said, "Collecting the power of incense and fire nourishes the soul, and the faith of all living beings disturbs the body and mind, resulting in unstable emotions."

"Very good, you have gradually learned to see through the foundation of other people's cultivation." Lingxiao said.

Zhao Mi continued: "According to common sense, the power of incense cannot be directly collected and refined for personal use. Goblins and ghosts steal altars and attach themselves to god statues. They must develop their souls and allow the power of incense to grow gradually. Soul, cultivation base and mana can also increase day by day.

It's just that this action will make the soul stained with the wishes of all beings, and many goblins and ghosts gradually become familiar with human affairs during this process, and their temperaments change from wild beasts to secular hearts.This is why most of the ghosts and gods have burning desires, and they are insatiable in blackmailing and offering blood. "

Lingxiao said: "Ordinary people pray to the gods, and they have desires and vows in their hearts. How can they not be contaminated by the power of incense and fire with their souls?"

"But it's still not right." Zhao Mi immediately made a judgment: "Even if it is a goblin or a ghost, not everyone can attach to the altar and enjoy the power of incense and incense at will. The soul altar is inherently dangerous, and it is like hanging outside the demon pill.

Back then when I sent down the Thunderbolt Arrow Shade to bombard the evil temple in Xinglong County, the rat demon's soul and magic power rested on the altar.

However, those who practice immortality are very different when they start to work hard. They pay attention to restraining the soul, restraining the soul, and regulating the spirit, which is quite different from the act of sending the soul out.Although as far as I know, there are indeed some soul-moving and soul-dividing techniques, but they are also used to enclose paper figures and change avatars, and cannot be used to carry incense. "

"But Chu Mengchun did it anyway," Lingxiao said.

Zhao Mi pondered and said, "As you said earlier, maybe Chu Mengchun didn't understand his own situation. Liang Tao used some means to enable him to gather the power of incense. Especially the skills of those boy servants, I feel... ...It's like the way the demon god of the South Earth bestows divine power!"

"This is not the result of borrowing the Dharma." Ling Xiao said: "Receive the faith of the incense, and then return the blessing to strengthen the heart of faith."

Zhao Mi guessed, "Could it be that Liang Tao used Chu Mengchun to experiment with incense and gods? But Chu Mengchun's temperament and emotions have obviously changed, and the foundation of immortal cultivation has also been shaken. This is not a good sign."

"Did you forget that Liang Tao also has the skill of fractal transformation?" Ling Xiao reminded.

"Could it be that he intends to use his avatar to bear the power of incense?" Zhao Mi thought for a while. Liang Tao's well-known description is usually the appearance of an old man in deep clothes. This is not only a kind of scheming behind the scenes, but also Distort the world's perception of Liang Tao.

Many cultivators and even shrines and temples don't know that the statues of gods are not made casually.Just as the strokes of a talisman are closely related to the spirit and aura, there is also a mysterious connection between the statue of the god and the true form of the deity.

And the more similar the statue is to the true form of the deity, the more it can attract incense and confidence.As a result, some ghosts and ghosts cling to the statues for a long time, nourished by incense, and their souls and auras naturally form their true forms, gradually becoming indistinguishable from the statues, which is also a form of transformation.

If Liang Tao really wants to ascend the Taoist throne and receive incense in the future, the statue on the altar may not be the original face of young Yingwei, but still be described as an old man.

Considering that the avatar's temperament, words and deeds are different from the deity's, maybe Liang Tao realized this very early on, so he deliberately used the avatar to walk outside and treat others.

But this is not enough. After the Dao Kingdom on Earth is created in the future, it is impossible for Liang Tao to do everything by himself, so he must have a group of capable people to do things for him.

Even if he made many promises to Zhao Mi, one person alone was not enough.Although there are many disciples in the Chongxuan Pavilion, the four surnames of the immortal lineage are corrupt, and there is even a hidden danger of establishing their own family. Therefore, Liang Tao has to use alternative methods to order the disciples.

As a living immortal family, Liang Tao must be very aware of the selfish nature of a cultivator. Respecting the teacher, teaching and enlightening, I am afraid it is far from reassuring Liang Tao.After all, if you are successful in cultivation, your mana belongs only to you, and cannot be easily taken away by external forces.

But what if Liang Tao bestowed all his magical powers and could take them back at any time?That person must be extremely loyal to Liang Tao and dare not violate it in the slightest.

"This is not a disciple of the disciples, but a believer." Zhao Mi immediately remembered that outside Dantu County, the Jiuli barbarians received divine power from the Nantu demon god. They were extremely fanatical and fearless of death. Entangled.

With Liang Tao's wisdom and vision, he probably knew the methods of the Nantu demon god long ago, but he didn't immediately try the method by himself, but asked Chu Mengchun to prove it on his behalf.
