Wu Family Sword Spirit

Chapter 1028: The Gratitude Report
Old Man Song raised his head and glanced at me. He seemed to have something to say, but he hesitated. Finally, he shook his head helplessly and said, "Young man, I'm still saying the same thing as before. Can you go through this muddy water?" Don't go there, the water is too deep, and there are countless great masters involved. Although you guys are very high in cultivation, you are still far behind those top masters. In the past, you were nothing more than cannon fodder. Now, here we are. Finally, it is very possible that if you don’t catch the golden toad and snow lotus, you will risk your life in it. I am relatively straightforward in speaking. This is because of the few people who saved my family and I only told you sincerely. Is there anything to offend? It’s a great place, so I hope you’ll take care of me.”

Several of us know how dangerous this is.

But I will definitely not give up on this matter. Li Banxian and Monk Hua naturally know my thoughts. Even if they don't follow, I will definitely go.

Li Banxian glanced at me, and then said to Old Man Song: "Thank you, brother, for reminding me. We all know the benefits and risks involved, and we have anticipated them before. But this time we are here, determined to bring them to justice." The Golden Toad and Snow Lotus got it, because it was indeed used to save lives, so we had to risk our lives. As for the other things, we can't care about it..."

Old Man Song sighed and said: "The Golden Toad Snow Lotus is indeed a good thing. Everyone in the world wants to get it for three reasons. The first is that the Golden Toad Snow Lotus can indeed increase people's cultivation. It even allows practitioners to reach a new level. Those great masters in the current practice world are already at the top, but they still want to get this golden toad and snow lotus. They want to break through the shackles and reach a new level of practice. It is possible to achieve the status of Earth Immortal. In today's Dharma-ending era, there has not been a super master like Earth Immortal for nearly 100 years, so it has attracted many top masters to compete for it."

"Secondly, once you get this Golden Toad Snow Lotus, it will be a priceless treasure. Most of the martial arts masters came here after hearing the news, and they are fancying the value of this Golden Toad Snow Lotus. If anyone gets it, and then sells it, It’s enough to eat and drink for a lifetime, and only high risks can lead to high profits, so everyone wants to get involved.”

"The third thing is that you all have the same idea. You have a family member who is seriously ill and there is no cure, so you want to use this golden toad and snow lotus to save your life. But there are very few people like you. , it is estimated that it is less than [-]%, most of them are here to pursue fame and fortune. I can completely understand your feelings, but it is too dangerous to go here, and the chance of success is too slim... …”

As Old Man Song said, people who come to snatch the Golden Toad and Snow Lotus basically have these reasons.

As for the top masters in the cultivation world, it is precisely because of the golden toad and snow lotus that they can break through the shackles and reach a new and higher realm.

Although our family has no sect, most of our martial arts originated from Qingshan.

I can be regarded as half a descendant of Qingshan. The "Secret Techniques of the Wu Family" handed down by my ancestor contains records about the inheritance of Taoism.

There are five Taoist realms of immortality, among which the boundaries between ghosts, immortals, and humans are clearly distinguished: “Those who are pure yin without yang are ghosts; those who are pure yang without yin are immortals; those who are mixed with yin and yang are humans. People can be ghosts or immortals. If you are young and don't cultivate, you can indulge your passions and die of illness and become a ghost; if you know how to cultivate, you can transcend the ordinary and become a saint, and you can lose your quality and become an immortal."

These words mean that people are between ghosts and immortals, that is, they can become ghosts after death, and they can also become immortals through cultivation.

Immortality, attaining enlightenment and becoming an immortal are the lifelong pursuits of many practitioners. If they fail to achieve this, they will settle for the next best thing, hoping to live a long and healthy life without any illness.

Taoism clearly distinguishes five realms of immortality.

The first type is ghost immortals, ghost immortals, one of the five immortals, and also the lowest kind of immortals. They are detached in the shadows, have unknown gods, have no surnames in ghost gates, and have no names in the three mountains. Although they have not entered reincarnation, they cannot return to the world. Ying, in the end, has nowhere to go, it is just a kind of rebirth and seizing one's body.

In other words, this ghost fairy is just a kind of spiritual body, but it is more powerful than the spiritual body.

The second type is human immortals. People with strong bodies and long lives are called human immortals.People like my great-great-grandfather, who have lived well for more than a hundred years, have probably transcended this realm, but immortals also have their moments of demise.

The third type is earthly immortals. Earthly immortals have the talents of gods but are not immortals. They have immortality and become the gods of immortals traveling on land. They are the riders of immortals. Such earthly immortals often have to do with mountains and rivers. The river merges into one and becomes a guardian deity. I seem to have seen this one before. For example, the great master who guards the Yin and Yang Realm in Qingshan is probably a land immortal. He seems to be very familiar with my ancestors.

The fourth type is immortals, and the fifth type is heavenly immortals.

This is a bit illusory, and I feel a bit unrealistic. I think gods should be like the Earth God and Guan Dijun, who are respected by thousands of people.

Heavenly immortals are easier to explain, such as the Queen Mother, Taishang Laojun, etc.

Whether there is one or not, who knows.

But the first three, as a practitioner, are indeed within this system, and I have seen almost all of them.

For me, my ambition is not lofty, and I don't want to become a fairy, I just want to live a peaceful life. I came to fetch this golden toad snow lotus, nothing more than to treat the old man's illness, and I didn't think about anything else at all. Pass.

Now, Old Man Song has repeatedly talked about the dangers of this matter and tried to dissuade us from going, but he couldn't get us to give up the idea, so we had to give up.

Finally, Li Banxian stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Since Brother Song is not going to show us a clear path, we have to go by ourselves. After dawn, we will leave here and go straight to the foot of the snow-capped mountains."

Old Man Song looked at Li Banxian solemnly, then glanced at Monk Hua and me respectively, but neither stood up. After sitting there for a long time, he patted the table and suddenly stood up and said: " Hey... that's all... Since you are determined to grab the Golden Toad and Snow Lotus, I will do you a favor. I have stayed in this northwest land for decades. If nothing else is possible, it shouldn't be a problem to guide you. , just go with you..."

"Brother Song, this matter is too dangerous. Please don't go. If you really end up there with us, we will feel bad...the things you told us have already benefited us. It's so profound..." Li Banxian said sincerely.

"You should repay your kindness. If it weren't for you, our family of three would have died long ago. That's it. I'll accompany you for a while!"
