I am your natural enemy.

Chapter 549: In the cradle, it is better to call him Brother Jian (6.5k, thanks to the leader of Ci Ci)
Wen Yan now truly felt the gap. Even though the door had been opened because cultivators had appeared, the difficulty of entering the new path would plummet. If one met the right person, the difficulty of entry would be lower than that of a warrior.

But the Third Uncle Master, relying only on decades of accumulation, natural talent, and decades of cultivated perception, can accurately understand what he is suitable for, and does so without hesitation.

After getting started, the basic practice has Wen Yan's standard illustration as a reference. The practice is also unstoppable, like a sharp sword piercing, clean and neat, as if there are no obstacles at all.

This is a manifestation of extremely firm will, extremely clear self-awareness, and extremely high level.

Wen Yan felt it up close and took note of the practice route of his Third Uncle-Master. He could clearly feel that there was a kind of meaning in it, the same as that of Brother Jian.

Before, when Wen Yan was trying to start a new path on his own, he didn't have the conditions, he had no accumulation, and his realm was not high enough, so he could only rush.

As for the practice routes, he couldn't be sure which ones were necessary and which ones could be discarded.

He could only follow his instinct, he wanted everything, and he was reluctant to give up anything, so that in the end, along the route of the practice, in addition to the main trunk of the major circulation, there were at least third-level branches, and in some places, there were even fourth-level branches.

And under this big cycle, there is basically the most complete diagram of practicing qigong.

Wen Yan had experienced this when he was experimenting with fingerprints. Many fingerprints could mobilize power and build a small new cycle, which actually did not require such a complicated route of practice.

It is too difficult and unrealistic to rely on active human guidance. The most appropriate approach is to let the power circulate on its own, just like blood circulation, most of the time.

What Wen Yan wanted was what he felt at this moment. Compared with his natural way of practicing martial arts, it was much simpler and was a route of pure strength.

He wrote down the route of his exercises and tried to adjust it actively after several attempts. This would change his original natural route of exercises, which was somewhat difficult. It was far from being as natural and smooth as his third uncle's. However, it was not impossible to copy it.

These high-ranking masters, after switching careers to practicing Taoism, naturally reached a very high realm, which was really outrageous.

When your realm is high, everything that follows will appear naturally.

This is one of the standard characteristics of a cultivator who has reached a high level: supernatural powers come naturally.

Wen Yan's copying was not very smooth, but he was still very happy. He stayed in Fuyu Mountain for half a day, and his third uncle taught him step by step. At least when he concentrated, he was able to switch from the original natural practice route to this specific new practice route.

When he leaves the state of absolute concentration, the energy pathways in his body will naturally return to their original state.

After all, this was not something he had originally understood, so it was indeed not that smooth.

But this is enough to prove that after the Third Uncle changed his job, at least the aspect of strengthening his power can be passed on to others.

However, if one's talent and realm are not sufficient, it will be very difficult to practice.

The level of spiritual practice depends entirely on personal understanding, character, daily accumulation, etc., and ultimately falls into practice, which is actually just reading thousands of books, traveling thousands of miles, meeting countless people, and participating in the world.

These things are Wen Yan’s own thoughts, which are reflected in his career step by step.

As a pioneer, it will naturally affect the tone of the profession itself.

The third uncle changed his job directly, on the one hand because as a mountain guardian who mainly cultivated strength, he could not ascend to heaven anyway, so he did not care about any impact.

On the other hand, he also wanted to experience it for himself.

If the cultivation of cultivators conflicts with that of Taoism, Wen Yan will probably be targeted more, and the profession of cultivators will also be targeted.

This is pure ass-dictating-head stuff.

Several elders in Fuyu Mountain knew that there would be senior masters who would not mind and might even be happy about the appearance of cultivators.

But in the entire Taoist community, not everyone is a high-level Taoist with high character, understanding, Taoism, and realm.

The reason why high priests are called high priests is that they are high in all aspects. That is why they are called high priests.

There are very few people.

Most of the people in Taoism have not reached this level.

Now that he has tried it himself, the Third Uncle Master is relieved. The practice of cultivators and Taoism can be said to complement each other.

Practicing Taoism and improving your state of mind, reciting scriptures and reading books, abiding by etiquette, and understanding one's mind and nature will only make cultivation easier.

Those who wish to ascend to heaven do not need to practice Taoism. In the Taoist sect, there have been Taoist priests who only cultivated their realms and did not practice subduing demons and monsters. They all had high status and were highly respected.

As for those who have no hope of ascending, or are unwilling to ascend, there is nothing wrong with practicing cultivation.

This profession is very inclusive, or in other words, very compatible.

Putting aside the issues of the profession itself and feeling the pros and cons from a practical perspective, Third Uncle Master felt relieved.

Wen Yan does things according to his heart, but as an elder, he has to consider the issue from other perspectives.

Wen Yan was like a sharp sword. He stood there, closed his eyes and copied the homework. While he was getting familiar with the new practice route, the Third Uncle-Master told the Grand Uncle-Master and the other two Uncle-Masters all his feelings without missing a single detail.

After hearing what the Third Uncle said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They were actually a little worried about repeating the same mistake. After dispelling the threat of Lieyang, a bigger trouble would arise.

After thinking for a moment, the great uncle took out his phone.

“Having said that, judging from Wen Yan’s words, he has no intention of monopolizing the cause. The path of cultivators doesn’t even need him to promote it, as some people can already feel it.

The angle and direction from which we look at issues, as well as our attitude, cannot represent everyone.

It is impossible for the vast majority of people to understand so clearly, and it is impossible for them to look at problems so comprehensively.

We must plan ahead and be prepared.

We must never allow anyone to treat cultivators as the new Lieyang and target Wen Yan.

Even when the sun is shining brightly, there will definitely be people who are dissatisfied and their malice will be even greater.

If they knew about the cultivators, they would definitely regard them as the new Lieyang.

By then, someone will surely come out to spread rumors and confuse the public, fanning the flames.”

The Grand Uncle Tai Shi's face was as gloomy as water. He was a man who had experienced wars, hardships, the days of China's slow progress, and also the days of China's rapid development.

He once adopted orphans and let them go down the mountain to live their own lives when they grew up. He had met all kinds of people and knew all kinds of things.

I can’t say anything else, but when it comes to judging people, he is definitely much better than young people.

Therefore, after learning about the cultivators and his great-grand uncle personally trying out his job change, he knew that he had to suppress the inevitable rhythm as soon as it appeared.

This requires advance communication.

The Grand Master Uncle looked at Wen Yan who was still immersed in his practice, and he personally dialed the number and called the old Heavenly Master.

The phone rang twice and then was picked up, and the person who answered the phone was the old master himself.

The great uncle Tai Shi was slightly startled. He thought someone had received a call and made an appointment to call the old Taoist priest.

After all, he also knew that the old Taoist priest usually sat on the cliff of the sea of ​​clouds and was not in the Taoist priest's mansion.

Before the Grand Master Uncle could say anything, the old Heavenly Master spoke first.

"Congratulations, you are really lucky, decisive, and sincere. You deserve to have such a disciple."

"Thank you for being so polite, old master. I'm sorry to bother you this time because I have something I want to talk to you about."

"Is it because of Wen Yan's matter? You guys in Fuyu Mountain should be receiving a call from the Lieyang Tribe soon. Let's talk about it then."

"Old Heavenly Master, this..."

"Don't worry." The old Taoist priest's tone was calm, but it lacked some of the aloofness and indifference, and it had a more soothing flavor.

Before he could finish his words, Fourth Uncle received a call from the Lieyang Tribe.

After picking up the phone, I found out that it was the director calling personally, inviting someone from Fuyu Mountain to attend an emergency meeting. The specifications and priority of the meeting were very high.

The matter to be discussed is nominally related to Lie Yang Pu Zhao, and someone will come to pick us up soon.

In addition to Fuyu Mountain, people will come from all the Three Mountains and Five Peaks except Taiyi Temple. Even the well-known mountain gates outside the Three Mountains and Five Peaks will have representatives.

There was no way for the Grand Tutor Uncle to continue asking questions, so he hung up the phone and chatted with the General Manager for a few words, indicating that someone would go to Fuyu Mountain.

After hanging up the phone, the Grand Master Uncle said to the Fourth Master Uncle.

"You go to the meeting. If it's just about Lieyang, then don't worry about it. I don't think anyone would bring up Lieyang now.

If it is a matter involving cultivators, you should talk to them properly and don’t let people who don’t know the truth develop any prejudice.”

After the Grand Master Uncle finished his instructions, the Third Master Uncle beside him suddenly added a sentence.

"If someone is being unreasonable, rude, or malicious, just remember who they are."

"Third senior brother, it shouldn't be that serious..." The fourth uncle was shocked and hurriedly tried to persuade him. His third senior brother's temper had obviously improved after he had just changed his job.

"You think I have changed my temperament?"

Growing up together, the Third Uncle took one look at the Fourth Uncle and knew what the other was thinking. He sneered.

“Forget about the past, the grudges from the past have continued to this day, and everyone has their own reasons.

Now that Wen Yan has the broad mind to let the scorching sun shine everywhere, everyone will have a chance to become a new professional cultivator.

If someone can't hide his malicious intent in public, who knows what he might do behind the scenes.

At times like this, we should act decisively and never give it the opportunity to create a major public opinion trend.

If anyone dares to do this, I don't mind spending some time to wash the blood off my flying sword.

If the Thirteenth Ancestor had not died, he would have had time to completely create the Fiery Sun Fist and guide it for another thirty years.

There are so many things to come.

Times have changed, if someone wants to do it again.

So what if I fall into the Netherworld?"

It takes decades to cultivate one's character and also decades to cultivate one's sword. After changing one's job, it is even more difficult to conceal one's edge. Without this edge, one cannot cultivate a flying sword.

It's just that he has always strictly restrained himself before and rarely showed any edge.

The fourth great uncle quickly comforted the third great uncle, saying that he would not back down and that other matters could be discussed, but this matter was definitely not negotiable.

Soon, the Lieyang Tribe sent a helicopter to the mountain to pick up people. People from all over the country also took cars, planes, or high-speed trains to the headquarters to attend this temporarily scheduled meeting.

When it was dark, it was already ten o'clock in the evening, and in a large conference room at the headquarters of the Lieyang Tribe, there was a bustling crowd, with representatives from various mountains and factions.

This morning, the director general sensed that the situation had changed, so he prepared to set a time to hold a meeting with everyone.

The original plan was to follow the normal meeting process, make appointments in advance, compile a list of names, have the logistics department arrange a series of issues such as food and accommodation, and leave enough time for people to arrange their schedules and prepare speeches, etc.

But after calling the old Taoist priest, the director went to meet with the people above him, had a brief chat, and then came back and immediately arranged an emergency meeting.

It’s just that the scorching sun is completely different from a new profession of cultivator that can be promoted and replicated like a warrior, and it’s not on the same level.

The Lieyang Department immediately held an emergency meeting to make its position clear and give an official characterization of the matter first. This would prevent someone from leading the trend and making the matter controversial. It would be like forcing a cow to drink water before it is officially defined.

The director hasn't arrived yet, but the others have already arrived and are now discussing their own matters.

"I think it's great. We don't have to argue about Lieyang anymore. I underestimated the contemporary Lieyang before. He has a broader vision than me."

"This morning, my disciples were doing morning prayers and have already felt what it feels like to be blessed by the scorching sun. This generation of disciples will definitely be more promising than my generation in the future."

Some people think it is good, some people think it is not good, but there is no way to say it, so the only thing to do is to change direction.

"That's good. In the future, the gap between us and the Three Mountains and Five Peaks will get smaller and smaller. After all, the Three Mountains and Five Peaks can't possibly hold back and not grant our disciples the ordination."

"Hey, I don't know what the people in the Three Mountains and Five Peaks will think. Anyway, this time it is more advantageous to us."

Some people started to lead the pace towards the mountains and peaks.

"Stupid."

The two of them were singing in unison, and just as the rhythm started to pick up, they heard a clear and melodious voice coming from behind them.

When he turned around, he saw Yan Zhikong walking towards him. He bowed and sighed.

"I have committed a verbal offense, and I have to recite the confession three times when I return. However, I happened to meet someone like you, and I have a deep understanding of what Brother Wen meant by 'owe'."

Yan Zhikong left a word, didn't argue with those people at all, turned around and walked away, sitting down in the front row.

He is here today to attend the meeting on behalf of Laojun Mountain.

The contemporary people who came down from Laojun Mountain expressed their true feelings and interrupted the rhythm simply and rudely. All the people who came to join in the fun dispersed, and no one listened anymore, and no one led the rhythm to the Three Mountains and Five Peaks.

A moment later, the fourth great-uncle from Fuyu Mountain arrived, as did the old Heavenly Master. The general manager also came with representatives from the Lieyang Tribe and entered the conference room.

The chief secretary brought people to distribute the printed meeting agenda to everyone.

After getting this thing, no one made any more noise. They didn't pay attention to the previous part, and their attention was quickly attracted by the cultivators who appeared behind.

There are even people here who, after seeing the three words "cultivator", stand on the threshold of changing their careers.

This time, the normal meeting process was not followed. The director-general spoke directly. He first affirmed the significance of the scorching sun, conveyed the affirmation from above, and completely finalized the matter.

The upper echelons of Shenzhou, including the Lieyang Tribe, are naturally happy to see this happen. This is the most perfect result, a result that they had never dared to imagine before.

The director-general's speech was very brief. In fact, no one had any objection to this matter. It had become an established fact, and everyone knew that the Lieyang Tribe would definitely support it. The majority of the people in the Three Mountains and Five Peaks would definitely support it, and the vast majority below the Three Mountains and Five Peaks would also support it.

After entering the back, the director began to talk about cultivators.

He introduced the cultivators, saying that this was a new profession that appeared after the scorching sun shone everywhere. Just like warriors, almost everyone can practice it.

This is also a new path that Wen Yan has walked on his own.

There are advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is that the further you go on the path of a cultivator, the harder it is to ascend.

When the director general said this, there was an uproar below. For Taoists, ascending to heaven is the highest honor. If they cannot ascend directly, isn't that completely contradictory?

Seeing the noise below, I could no longer remain calm.

The old Taoist priest stretched out a hand and tapped the table twice with his fingers.

The sound seemed to explode in everyone's mind. Everyone's consciousness seemed to stop for a moment and all thoughts were interrupted.

Everyone fell silent, and many looked horrified.

They all knew that the old master was very strong, so strong that he was far ahead of others.

There is no ranking for the second to tenth strongest Taoist priests in the world, which is actually very controversial.

But there is no dispute about who is the most powerful Taoist priest in the world.

But this is the opening ceremony.

The old Taoist priest had not opened the altar or performed any rituals at this moment, and it was even obvious that he was not a professional, but this move shocked everyone.

The old Taoist looked around, slowly stood up and said.

"I have switched to becoming a cultivator."

As soon as these words came out, a group of people gasped.

The old Taoist priest followed Wen Yan's path and cultivated a new profession that Wen Yan had created.

Some people's faith was broken and their mentality collapsed on the spot.

"Wen Yan, a child who is still wet behind the ears and a Taoist priest, is not even worthy of being a Taoist priest. What right does he have? We should have made a decision long ago and got rid of him!"

The old Taoist knocked on the table again, and the man who was red-faced, trembling and roaring immediately became dull and quiet.

"This fellow Taoist has gone astray. Please ask the people of the Lieyang Tribe to settle him down."

Several burly men from the Lieyang tribe immediately came over and took the Taoist out.

This has been done several times within the Lieyang Tribe today.

Wen Yan's scorching sun, coupled with the new Dao, was already a bit of a torture to the soul, and coupled with the mental breakdown, those who already had flaws in their hearts lost control for a moment and were completely exposed.

For Taoists like these who have lost control, hearing the old Taoist priest say these words in person is like the sky has fallen and the whole world is going in reverse.

The director general sat there without saying a word, quietly looking at everyone in the deathly quiet conference room.

He talked his heart out, but even if the Lieyang Tribe established rules and enforced them, the effect would be far less than if the old Taoist priest said these words in person.

This is the significance of the impromptu meeting, to nip the potential rhythm in the bud on the same day.

The Fiery Sun Tribe will never allow a new Fiery Sun incident to occur in modern times.

After the Chinese New Year this year, there are more and more cases, and more and more difficult cases.

After listening to the old Taoist priest’s detailed explanation, the director general realized that Wen Yan’s new way of opening up the source of truth was a shot in the arm, a brand new solution, and most importantly, it could seamlessly connect with previous preparations.

From the perspective of the Lieyang Tribe, this is absolutely the right thing to do in the general direction, and no one will be allowed to lead the rhythm regarding this matter.

During the day, the director saw that several members in the headquarters were exposed when they were attacked, and he thought of this.

An emergency meeting was arranged immediately that day so that all representatives could experience the impact together.

If someone has something to hide and cannot withstand the impact and is exposed directly, it can save a lot of trouble.

Those who can be sent as representatives are basically the senior leaders of the mountain gate, the people who can make decisions and maintain the daily operation of the mountain gate.

This temporary meeting is equivalent to a screening and testing of all the large and small mountain gates.

So far, the effect is pretty good.

One's heart was broken, two found it hard to understand, it was as if their three views had been overturned, but they could still bear it.

There was even a Taoist priest who had a good reputation, was humble, polite, and knowledgeable, and he completed his job change on the spot.

Anyone who can do this without understanding what a cultivator is and what the true meaning is must be a master of a very high level.

The director of the headquarters remembered that this Taoist priest was the abbot of a small Taoist temple in Xiyu County. He had been traveling for half a day before arriving at the headquarters.

This Taoist priest is proficient in three languages. He is not good at exorcising demons, but he is good at digging wells and drawing water. He is also a water conservancy expert and agronomy expert there.

In addition, he is a low-key person with little fame. The director remembers this Taoist priest purely because there are very few Taoist temples in Xiyu County, and this is the only one that currently has disciples who are ordained.

This Taoist priest himself has not even been ordained, and he has never applied for ordination from his youth until now.

The director general took note of the matter and continued to remain silent, leaving it to the old Taoist priest to handle.

On the other side, Wen Yan was still standing on Fuyu Mountain with his eyes closed, but the sharpness in him became more and more obvious.

Brother Jian flew back, floated beside Wen Yan, and circled around Wen Yan.

The Third Great Uncle waved his hand, telling the flying sword not to disturb Wen Yan. The flying sword flew to the Third Great Uncle, circled around him, then flew behind him, made a big circle close to the ground, and then quietly flew to Wen Yan's side.

It felt the aura of Wen Yan was particularly familiar, as if it had met its own blood brother.

When the Third Uncle Master called out, the flying sword flew away, stopped for a minute or two, and then quietly came back, making the Third Uncle Master feel helpless.

"He is practicing, don't disturb him."

As midnight approached, the sharpness in Wen Yan's body reached its limit. He suddenly opened his eyes, put the middle finger and index finger of his right hand together, covered his armor and penetrated his energy, turned them into sword fingers, and pointed them fiercely forward.

In an instant, the power in his body followed the copied route of practice and suddenly accelerated several times, gathering on the sword finger, and then turned into a red light, bursting out in an instant and disappearing into the night.

Wen Yan staggered and sat on the ground. This blow instantly drained all the power running in the new exercise route, and it seemed to drain his physical strength as well.

He sat on the ground and rested for two minutes. The energy pathways in his body returned to normal natural pathways, and his strength was restored.

After standing up again, he took a step forward impatiently and disappeared, following the place where the red light disappeared.

They came to another hill and searched for a long time but couldn't find it. It was Brother Jian who flew over, circled around him, led the way, and brought him to the place.

After arriving at the place, I saw a small hole about the thickness of a finger on a tree. Looking forward along the hole, I found a stone more than half a meter high on the ground, with a small hole on it as well.

Behind the small hole, you can also see that the red light sinks into the ground, and there are traces of burning on the edge.

Wen Yan stretched out his hand and tried, but couldn't feel how deep the small hole was.

Brother Jian crawled into the small hole and quickly crawled out, gesturing something.

Wen Yan turned around and looked to the other side. The straight-line distance between the two hilltops was at least five or six hundred meters.

Wen Yan was very happy. This was more powerful than fists and kicks. The gravity route of the Third Uncle Master was indeed amazing.

He went back and told his third uncle.

"Third Uncle, this thing was created by you, why don't you give it a name."

"You practiced it yourself. What do you mean by I created it? You started it yourself."

Brother Jian flew in front of Wen Yan, blocking Wen Yan's sight.

Wen Yan laughed and said casually.

"Okay, okay, just call me Brother Jian, okay?"

"Sword Song? Not bad." The Third Uncle Master didn't care about it and just nodded casually.
