And said you're not a fairy

Chapter 172 Sky Embryos and Immortal Bones

"This person's cultivation level is very high, and he is also in the inner scene!"

After Chen Yuan got rid of the opponent, he looked at the corpse that fell on the ground and sensed his cultivation level from the corpse.

It's just that the opponent used the wrong spell and misjudged the situation, so he was killed in an instant.

With a thought in mind, Chen Yuan put the rusty sword back into the sword case, and then touched the body of Taoist Bailian on the ground, hoping to find something like a token that could prove his identity from the other party's body.

However, I didn't find it, but I found another thing in the chest and abdomen, which was an unexpected surprise.

"This thing is..."

Chen Yuan looked at the scroll in his hand. It was one foot two inches long and one and three inches wide. It was made of milky white jade pieces. On the back was a lifelike white lotus pattern, emitting a faint light. There were no words on the front, but once his eyes were fixed on it, , the various magic practices of Bailian Dao will constantly appear in my mind, and there are nearly a hundred magic spells, large and small, recorded in it.

Among them, in addition to using evil methods to practice, Chen Yuan has already encountered the art of animal creation, invisibility, resurrection from the dead, and divination. In addition, there are also wall penetration, nightmare, and corpse control!

There are even folk illusions, fairy ropes, picking up money in oil, carrying water in bamboo baskets, and not getting drunk after a thousand cups.

"It seems to be the White Lotus Jade Book!"

After Chen Yuan read the many spells recorded in the White Lotus Jade Book, he immediately guessed the origin of this object.

"It seems that this White Lotus Taoist has not left since he obtained the White Lotus Jade Book from the Qing Palace in Aoshan Mountain. Instead, he has been wandering at the foot of Aoshan Mountain for two or three months, just wanting to get rid of me. I don't know how the other party found it. mine?"

Chen Yuan speculated on the process of Taoist Bailian's attack on him.

However, Bai Liandao's spell was weird, and Chen Yuan was not surprised that the other party could find him silently.

"It's just a pity that the White Lotus Jade Book that the other party worked so hard to get from Shangqing Palace fell into my hands."

Chen Yuan looked at the White Lotus Jade Book in his hand and shook his head.

The Taoist Bai Lian didn't know how he knew that the previous events were all his own doing, and he probably felt that he could no longer let himself go.

It may be because of fear of him before, he has been hiding in the dark and did not make a move, this time he finally couldn't help but chose to make a move, but unfortunately he was easily eliminated by himself.

"The spells of White Lotus Dao are all cultivated with evil methods. They are not very powerful and have methods of restraint. They are much weaker than practitioners of the same realm."

Chen Yuan recalled the process of the fight just now.

For example, spells such as animal creation and invisibility all have weaknesses and flaws.

Generally speaking, if one knows how to exploit the weaknesses and flaws of spells, even a few mortals who cooperate with each other can easily get rid of a demon who has practiced the White Lotus Dao spell.

Of course, if it is Taoist Bailian who has advanced cultivation, it will be a different situation.

The reason why Chen Yuan was able to quickly get rid of Taoist Bailian just now was not because Taoist Bailian's spells had weaknesses and flaws, but because Chen Yuan's strength had increased significantly after his cultivation level had just broken through. , he is already very strong now.

"The White Lotus Taoist said that this thing is called Silver Moon Grass. It seems that he knows the name and function of this thing. Unfortunately, he is already dead."

Chen Yuan looked at the ground next to him that looked a little messy after taking away the treasures. Chen Yuan said with regret.

It would be great if the other party is not dead. You can ask the other party about the function of the silver grass he just collected.

But it doesn't matter. There is a ghost fairy Li Shaojun in Qingyang Temple. It's the same thing to ask him after he goes back.

"Let's go, now that the matter is settled, it's time for us to go back."

Chen Yuan put the White Lotus Jade Book into his arms and looked at Xue Niang and Xiao Huangdao who had just watched him get rid of the White Lotus Taoist.

Chen Yuan got on the back of the gray donkey and was about to leave, but after taking a look at the body of Taoist Bai Lian broken into three pieces on the ground, he changed his mind.

"Bai Lian Dao's magic is weird, and it also has the ability to bring the dead back to life. Just in case, let's burn the body!"

He thought for a while, took out a divine fire talisman, and after chanting the spell, the divine fire talisman immediately turned into a red billowing flame and burned towards the body of Taoist Bailian on the ground.

Soon, the body of Taoist Bailian on the ground was burned into a pile of ashes.

As soon as the mountain wind blew, they were immediately blown into the air and dispersed in the forest.

"Now, there should be no way to bring the dead back to life, right? It was burned to ashes. If you can still be resurrected, I will accept it."

Chen Yuan said to himself.

As he spoke, he followed the path he came from and walked towards the official road.

"Chen Yuan, was that Taoist priest from Bailian Tao just now?"

"Yes, the other party is Bailian Dao Demon Dao."

"This person is so weak, Xue Niang feels like she can deal with him."

"You tackled him? Did you spit on him?"

"Don't look down on people, Xue Niang's current water-bending skills are very powerful."

In the woods, the voices of Chen Yuan and Xue Niang talking gradually became distant.

While Chen Yuan was on his way back to Jianghuai City.

……

Jianghuai City.

The level of luxury is comparable to that of a royal palace, covering an area of ​​hundreds of acres, with pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings.

In a secret room.

On a wooden chair, there is a lifelike puppet of a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing Taoist robes.

The puppet was half sitting on the wooden chair. Suddenly, the fingers and eyelashes of the Taoist puppet sitting on the wooden chair began to tremble slightly. The original wooden skin rapidly changed and became rosy, and began to look like a real person. The guard A servant next to the Taoist puppet also noticed the puppet's strange movements, and he looked happy.

"Taoist Master He Kui is awake!"

The servant shouted.

Then he immediately opened the door and ran out to inform his master.

The whole process did not last long. The half-seated Taoist puppet originally sitting on the chair had completely transformed into a real middle-aged Taoist wearing Taoist robes and a lotus crown.

"This person is extraordinary. I was careless this time. I even lost the "White Lotus Jade Book" that I finally got back."

The middle-aged Taoist sighed.

If Chen Yuan were here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that this person was the Taoist Bailian who Chen Yuan had just fought with in the woods at the foot of Aoshan Mountain and was killed by him.

"Taoist Master, you are back! You used your puppet body. Could it be that you encountered some danger?"

At this moment, a middle-aged man with a slightly plump face, a fat figure, a big belly, an aura of nobility, and wearing a bright yellow python robe strode in from the outside, and asked the man named Taoist Bailian from Hekui.

This person was the fifteenth prince Nanxiang King who met Chen Yuan at a banquet hosted by Taoist Changchun, the master of Qingyang Temple.

"It was bad luck this time. I happened to meet the Taoist priest who lived in Qingyang Temple. I originally wanted to eliminate the root cause, but I didn't expect that the Taoist priest had a breakthrough in cultivation and greatly increased his strength. The poor Taoist priest was inferior to others and was defeated by the opponent. Instead, he was eliminated by the opponent. Lost."

He Kui looked ashamed.

"Then I wonder if the Taoist Master has ever obtained the "White Lotus Jade Book"?"

King Nanxiang took a few steps forward and asked He Kui anxiously.

"No."

"I already had it, but it's a pity that the "White Lotus Jade Book" is in Pindao's possession. Now that I have been killed by the other party, the "White Lotus Jade Book" will most likely fall into the hands of that Taoist."

He Kui shook his head.

"What should we do? Taoist priest!"

"The "White Lotus Jade Book" is related to the orthodoxy of the White Lotus Tao. It is a token of the successive leaders of the White Lotus Tao. If we did not have the "White Lotus Jade Book", it would be impossible to gather other branches of the White Lotus Tao."

King Nanxiang said anxiously.

This was a major matter of his planning, so I don't blame him for being anxious.

"Since the White Lotus Taoist war with the imperial court a hundred years ago and the imperial court summoned Buddhist and Taoist experts to annihilate it, it has been in decline. At the same time, the sect has fallen apart. Today, the White Lotus Taoism has split into the Qingcha Sect, the Cross Sect, the Burning Incense Sect, and the Hunyuan Sect. , Hongyang Sect, Truth Sect, Laojunmen Sect, Mahayana Sect, Qingxiang Sect, Yuandun Sect, Bazhen Sect, Dayang Sect and other twelve sects.”

"Behind each sect, there is a lotus head who supports himself and proclaims himself the leader. The saint and the head of Taoism live in seclusion behind the scenes, rarely appearing, and their attitude is ambiguous. No one knows which sect they support."

"Although the prince has received the support of our Hongyang Sect, there is still little hope of achieving great things. Only by obtaining the "White Lotus Jade Book" can we hope to end the disintegration of the White Lotus Way and reintegrate the White Lotus Way for the prince. Effectiveness. Unfortunately, the appearance of the young Taoist priest temporarily living in Qingyang Temple changed the matter, and we could only let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slip away from our hands."

He Kui sighed.

"I even drank with him and wanted to recruit him, but unfortunately he didn't appreciate me."

Thinking of this, the anger in King Nanxiang's heart welled up from the bottom of his heart.

Taoist Qingming has advanced cultivation and powerful spells. Not long after he came to Jianghuai City, there was an uproar in Jianghuai City. If he can be recruited, then he will have two masters, Hekui and Qingming, under his command. Why worry about failure?

"Taoist Master, this "White Lotus Jade Book" must be recaptured. I can send fifty soldiers and Wu Bao to work with the Taoist Master at night."

After being angry, King Nanxiang made up his mind and looked at Taoist He Kui.

It's just that if this is the case, there is no need for the Qingyang Temple who knows his secret to exist.

But in order to regain the White Lotus Jade Book, it was all worth it.

"Does the lord really want to do this? The Taoist named Qingming has made a breakthrough in his cultivation, and he is no longer what he used to be. I am afraid that he is at the stage of life just like the poor Taoist. Even if we make another move, we may not be able to recover Take back the "White Lotus Jade Book" from the opponent's hand." He Kui was a little hesitant.

According to their White Lotus way of doing things, if they don't succeed once, they will hide it and look for opportunities to plot in the future. This is the safest way.

This is also the principle of life that their White Lotus Way has existed for thousands of years and has not been destroyed by successive imperial courts.

In the current situation of King Nanxiang, it is easy for problems to arise.

"There is news from the palace that the emperor's brother has been practicing in seclusion in the harem during this period. He has not been seen for a month. There are no concubines, eunuchs or maids in the palace who have seen him again."

"Does the Taoist understand what it means?"

The King of Nanxiang asked Taoist Hekui.

"clear."

Taoist Hekui said thoughtfully.

"Since the Taoist Master understands, you should know that I don't have much time. Time waits for no one, so we must get this "White Lotus Jade Book"."

King Nanxiang said firmly.

"Well, since the prince has made up his mind, I will risk my life for the prince."

"Pindao will use the treasures at the bottom of the box of our Hongyang Sect tonight to help the prince."

Taoist Hekui finally agreed.

"Thank you, Taoist Priest. Don't worry, Taoist Priest. Once I achieve great things, I will definitely not forget the agreement between me and your sect."

The King of Nanxiang promised.

"So best."

Taoist Hekui agreed.

He and the King of Nanxiang now have a mutually prosperous and mutually destructive relationship.

If he wanted to develop the Hongyang Sect and even unify the White Lotus Way, he would need to borrow the power of King Nanxiang.

……

Chen Yuan returned to Qingyang Temple, settled the gray donkey, and had just returned to his residence.
Changchun Taoist, the master of Qingyang Temple, soon heard the news and came to the third floor of Daojing Pavilion where Chen Yuan lived.

"The Taoist priest has not returned for three months. The old Taoists thought that the Taoist priest had left Chuzhou Mansion."

Changchun Taoist said happily when he saw Gui Chen Yuan coming.

"The bells and souls of Aoshan Mountain are beautiful, and the pure spirit energy in the mountain is rich. It is a blessed land in the cave world, and it is also an excellent place for practice. I practiced on Aoshan Mountain for three months and came back after I made a breakthrough in my cultivation."

Chen Yuan explained.

"That's it. Congratulations to the Taoist Master, you are one step closer to the path of immortality."

Only then did Changchun Taoist understand the reason why Chen Yuan had been away for three months before returning to Jianghuai City. Congratulations to Chen Yuandao.

"It's just a breakthrough in cultivation. How dare you talk about immortality?"

Chen Yuan shook his head.

"Nothing happened in the viewing hall recently, right?"

Chen Yuan asked Changchun Taoist.

"Thanks to Taoist Priest Hongfu, nothing happened. Everything is fine."

Changchun Taoist laughed.

After a while of chatting, Chen Yuan told Taoist Changchun that he heard about Bailian Tao on Aoshan Mountain, which surprised Taoist Changchun.

He obviously also knows Bailian Taoist and Bailian Taoist.

Later, Changchun Taoist took the initiative to leave and let Chen Yuan, who was tired from traveling and traveling, rest first. He agreed to go to the countryside in two days to meet the carpenter with superb carving skills.

……

late at night.

Chen Yuan Yuan Shen traveled, passed through the wall, and came to the second floor of Dao Jing Pavilion.

"what!"

"Su Chu, has your cultivation level reached a breakthrough?"

Chen Yuan's Yuan Shen had just gone up. Li Shaojun, who was reading a scripture in his hand next to the lamp, raised his eyes and saw Chen Yuan arriving. He noticed at a glance that Chen Yuan's cultivation had broken through in Chen Yuan's Yuan Shen.

"I went to Aoshan Mountain. The heaven and earth above Aoshan Mountain were full of pure spiritual energy, so I practiced there for three months and made a slight breakthrough in my cultivation."

Chen Yuan didn't hide anything, sitting opposite Li Shaojun and said.

"Your qualifications are simply terrifying. You are not yet nineteen years old, right? Your cultivation level is already in the life realm?"

Li Shaojun's eyes were filled with wonder.

Because they often read Taoist scriptures together, the relationship between the two parties has long been familiar. Li Shaojun knew that Chen Yuan's real age was less than nineteen, and he had only been practicing for four years.

In four years, he went from an ordinary person to a cultivator with the realm of life. This qualification is too terrifying.

No wonder he was favored by the immortal Lu Xiangong and accepted as his disciple.

"Already nineteen."

Chen Yuan said.

Three months have passed since this practice. Counting this month, he is exactly nineteen years old.

"I'm going to Aoshan now. Have you heard any news about Bailian Dao?"

Li Shaojun asked Chen Yuan.

"I heard some."

Chen Yuan told Li Shaojun one by one some of the news about Bailian Road that he had learned from Aoshan.

And on the way back, he obtained two heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Later, he encountered a White Lotus Taoist who attacked him. After killing the opponent, he obtained the "White Lotus Jade Book" from the opponent's corpse and told Li Shaojun.

"Take out the silver grass and the "White Lotus Jade Book" you mentioned and let me see them."

Li Shaojun said to Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan was not afraid that Li Shaojun would covet his treasures, so he used the "Hu Tian Curse" to take out two treasures and put them on the table in front of the two of them. The other party was a ghost and immortal, so he might not like these two things. .

Li Shaojun first picked up the "White Lotus Jade Book", looked at it carefully and then said: "This "White Lotus Jade Book" is not only a magic secret book, but also a "celestial embryo", which can be used to shape and give birth to a god. Come on, it is indeed a treasure.”

Chen Yuan was a little confused when he heard this: "What's the difference between Tian Pei and Fu Zhao?"

Li Shaojun shook his head: "It's not the same."

Li Shaojun continued: "This "Heavenly Embryo" is much stronger than the talisman. The creatures who obtain the Heavenly Emperor's talisman or naturally condense the talisman will become ghosts and gods at most, but this "Heavenly Embryo" condenses a large amount of heaven and earth aura. The ancient treasure, the god that was conceived is actually a god. There is already a god in this jade book, but it seems that the gestation process has been interrupted and is sleeping."

While speaking, Li Shaojun handed the "White Lotus Jade Book" to Chen Yuan again: "If you touch the jade book with your spiritual sense, you will be able to see the sleeping god in the jade book."

Chen Yuan did as he was told, and then he felt the scene in front of him change, and his consciousness came to a chaotic and undivided world.

In the center of this world, there is a goddess with a height of [-] feet, a female face and body, a perfect appearance, with the sun, moon and stars as her hair ornaments, and black and white chaos as her divine clothes. She is sleeping in this space.

"Old Mother Wuji!"

Chen Yuan knew the other person's name the first time he saw him.

"The gestation process of this god was interrupted midway. It is impossible for him to wake up in a short time, let alone be born again, so you just need to know."

"The average members of the White Lotus Dao may not know the secrets hidden in the "White Lotus Jade Book". In any case, this object is the symbol of the leader of the White Lotus Dao. I guess the White Lotus Dao will not give up."

Li Shaojun said to Chen Yuan.

"As for this thing..."

Li Shaojun picked up the silver grass on the table and looked at it up and down. The more he looked at it, the more astonishment in his eyes became, and eventually it turned into wonder.

"It's actually this thing!"

Li Shaojun exclaimed.

"Brother Li, what is this grass? What does it do?"

Chen Yuan asked curiously.

"Exactly as the Bailian Taoist said, this herb is called Silver Moon Grass, which is only recorded in some ancient Taoist books. It is a very rare and precious fairy grass. It can be taken by both practitioners and spirits."

"Taking it in small amounts is useless, it can only strengthen the body, but if it is taken in large amounts, it can create immortal bones."

Li Shaojun explained.
