Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 198 Suppression of Mountains and Rivers

The cock crows and he rises, washes his hands, washes his hair, and straightens his clothes.

Every household in Qingcheng County is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and both men and women wear bright clothes to celebrate the coming of the New Year.

Chen Yun led Wang Siyan, the five demons, and the spirit beasts to the main hall first to make sacred offerings to the Sanqing Taoist Patriarch, Dongwang Gong, and his mentor.

Then, burn incense, chant sutras and worship.

After doing all this, he went to the side hall to offer incense to the divine soldiers and generals and the Yin soldiers and generals.

In the past few days, the Divine Soldiers and Divine Generals and the Yin Soldiers and Yin Generals have been immersed in "upgrading", and there has been no movement so far.

Chen Yun knew that refining ghost energy would take time, so he was not in a hurry.

Just after finishing their busy work here, the five demons went to patrol the mountains as usual.

Wang Siyan was also going to the kitchen to prepare food for the five demons and spirit beasts.

"Sister."

Chen Yun called to the other party to stop.

Wang Siyan, who had just crossed the threshold, turned around and said, "Brother, what's the matter?"

Chen Yun took out the flying money from his sleeve and said, "There is some gold in it. Take it out and put it in the Taoist temple."

Wang Siyan quickly waved his hand and said: "No, no, there is still a lot of salary distributed by the court in the past few days, which is enough for the whole year."

Because Chen Yun was canonized by the imperial court, his honorary official position was above the third rank, and his salary was the same as that of a formal official. Therefore, his annual salary was more than sixty taels of silver, in addition to nine hectares of land, and the corresponding standard wages of thirty-nine slaves, totaling about one One hundred and two taels of silver.

Of course, there is also some miscellaneous income.

For example, rice, food, silk, gold and silverware, miscellaneous colors, etc. given during festivals.

Anyway, the annual income is quite large, which is enough for the Taoist temple's daily expenses, and it can even save a lot.

Chen Yun was too lazy to bother with these trivial matters, so he left them all to Wang Siyan. He naturally knew that the expenses would be sufficient.

But today he took out the flying money, not for expenses, but because he knew that the Tang Dynasty was about to fall. If he didn't take out the gold in the flying money, maybe no one would recognize it in the future.

Of course, it doesn't matter to him whether he has money or not.

Chen Yun had other purposes for taking out the money.

He stuffed the flying money into Wang Siyan's hand and explained: "These days, you are busy up and down in the Taoist temple and you have no free time. Why do you talk about spiritual practice? Besides, now that the imperial court has given nine hectares of land, so... We can't let you work in the fields, can we? Even if you want to work in the fields, you won't be able to do it. After all, there are only 450 acres of land. In this way, in addition to leaving some fields for planting Taoist food, the rest will be rented out to poor families at a cheaper price so that they can have food. Food. In addition, I have some spare money here. After the New Year, you can go to a dental shop to buy some hard-working boys and girls to come back and work. Everything is in accordance with the Taoist concept. You can just take care of them at ordinary times, and you can also have some time to practice hard."

Wang Siyan joked: "Are you asking me to be the abbot of a Taoist temple?"

Chen Yun couldn't laugh or cry and said: "No way, we live in the Taoist temple ourselves, so why do we need an abbot? Well, anyway, I have to worry about the affairs of the Taoist temple. I always keep my kindness in mind."

Wang Siyan blinked his eyes and pointed out something else: "Just remember it."

After chatting for a while, she took the flying money and went to work.

Chen Yun also has something to be busy with.

He picked up a large load of new year's goods and rushed all the way to Jinquan Mountain to wish Xie Ziran a new year.

Then, he went to Guanjiang Erlang Temple and the place where Zhang Jiwen lived to pay New Year greetings to Erlang God and Zhang Jiwen respectively, and to offer tribute and burn incense in front of the statue of Zhang Tianshi.

As for Zhongnan Mountain, the journey was too far. He had asked the Qingcheng County government to send an urgent message a few days ago, and with the help of the moving array, he sent some New Year's greetings materials back to the Taoist temple.

Of course, not one of them, including Lu Dongbin, Zheng Wenshu, Zhao Gongming, Guan Erye and Chen Yun, were left behind. They all sent urgent messages from the government and helped deliver New Year's gifts.

……

At night, firecrackers were blasting outside.

Such a noisy environment is definitely not suitable for practicing inner alchemy.

Chen Yun has refined Qi Transformation Soup, so naturally he practices it every day.

He did not go to sleep immediately, but studied powerful spells such as the Golden Light Curse and the Pot Heaven Technique for a while.

Immediately, he saw that he still had time, took out the Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Immortal Clothes and Caixia Glazed Pagoda, and sat there to look at them carefully.

"I roughly understand the specific function of the Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Immortal Clothes, which is nothing more than ultimate defense."

Chen Yun stared at the pagoda, "But apart from suppressing ghosts, does this Caixia Glazed Pagoda have any other function?"

He really couldn't figure it out.

This study lasted only a short while.

Because Chen Yun was so focused on his work, he didn't even notice the effect of the Qi Refining and Transformation Decoction in his body.

Suddenly, when his true energy dropped, Chen Yun "felt" his body gradually enlarged, his spirit soared, and the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers were all in his body. He felt like he was standing on top of the sky, and his limbs didn't know where they were.

This is a normal phenomenon in practicing the "Elixir Falling Method".

Chen Yun was about to reach out and press it in the same way as before to make the "god" return.

Unexpectedly, the Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Immortal Clothes and Caixia Glazed Pagoda in his hands began to operate automatically.

The Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Immortal Clothes immediately took the initiative to put on Chen Yun's body.

The Caixia Glazed Pagoda conveyed a large amount of information to Chen Yun, as if it could allow him to absorb mountains, rivers and rivers into it like an arm and a finger, suppressing, crushing, melting, etc.

Because when practicing, the "god" will only leave the body for a moment.

Therefore, in the blink of an eye, Chen Yun felt that he had lost contact with Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Immortal Clothes and Caixia Glazed Pagoda again.

"Huh?" He couldn't help but widen his eyes, "The moment the 'god' left the body just now, I felt the indestructible will coming from the Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Immortal Clothes, and the powerful will to suppress the mountains and rivers also came from the Caixia Glazed Pagoda."

Chen Yun made a bold guess, "Could it be that...as long as I can use the power of 'god', I can control these two powerful artifacts?"

This is definitely good news.

After all, he initially thought that he had to practice until the Yang God left his body.

But now, you only need to use the power of that "god" to drive these two artifacts, which means that the difficulty has been greatly reduced!

"But what should I do to activate the 'divine power'?"

Chen Yun thought about it carefully for a while, "Hey, by the way, last time I guessed that if the inner alchemy can be practiced to the level of a superior mage, it should enter the spiritual cultivation part. By then, will I be able to mobilize the power of 'god'? "

Although Yin Shen is also a "god", in essence, Yin Shen is actually a "clear spirit ghost".

The "god" that can only come out of the body through cultivation is the true god in the body.

In the inner alchemy technique that Chen Yun practiced, if he wanted to form a golden elixir, he not only needed to refine the energy, but also needed to condense and sublimate the three treasures of essence, energy, and spirit, thereby cultivating a holy fetus, the golden elixir, and then refining the Yang Shen.

Then, before refining the golden elixir, "god" must be involved.

"My guess is correct. If you train to become a high-level mage, you will most likely be able to command two artifacts."

Chen Yun was secretly happy in his heart, "And the 'god' just left the body and made me understand the function of the pagoda. The function of this magic weapon is to suppress. It is not just as simple as suppressing. Once the enemy is absorbed into it, as long as I move my mind, I can suppress it." The enemies in it can be crushed or melted, etc., and people can even be imprisoned in the pagoda forever."

He finally knew why the ghost commander, the four ghost generals and tens of thousands of ghost soldiers had not been wiped out after being suppressed by the pagoda for more than 8,000 years. The reason was because the Earth God simply wanted to imprison the ghost commander and his subordinates. Eliminate excess.

Perhaps because he wanted to understand this problem, Chen Yun vaguely realized that he had done something wrong before, that is, he should not have wiped out all the ghost commanders.

"The ghost commander, the four ghost generals, and tens of thousands of ghost soldiers were able to endure in the pagoda for more than 8,000 years without dissipating. I am afraid that the strength before the suppression was far more terrifying than what I saw before."

Chen Yun squinted his eyes and guessed, "If I'm not wrong, the Ghost Commander is most likely a god, but a Yin and Evil God. The four ghost generals and tens of thousands of ghost soldiers are the subordinates of the Ghost Commander. , but lost in the battle with the Earth God, so he was taken into the pagoda."

What does this mean?

It means that if you don't kill the ghost commander, you might still be able to learn about the relics of a god and get some treasures.

It's just that now that all the ghost commanders have been wiped out, there's no point in regretting.

"Since both the Earth God and the Ghost Commander are in Lizhou, if the Ghost Commander is really an evil god as I guessed before, then his ruins should not be too far away from the Earth God's Stone Tomb. Let's explore it again when we have the opportunity."

These thoughts flashed through Chen Yun's mind.

Of course, these are just my guesses and may not be tenable.

After all, all the gods who have lost faith have fallen. If Gui Shuai was really a god before, there is no reason that he could continue to survive after being suppressed by the Caixia Glazed Pagoda for more than 8,000 years, not to mention not only Gui Shuai, but also the four great ghost generals and tens of thousands of Yin soldiers. None of them have lost their strength due to the passage of time and disappeared in the long river of history.

Thinking about it, he put away the Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Immortal Clothes and Caixia Glazed Pagoda, and calmly felt the effects of the medicine.

Although the Refining Qi Transformation Tang will take the initiative to practice and does not require his own attention, it is fine, but he can feel it quietly as if he is really practicing, which can increase his "proficiency", so he naturally has to feel it carefully.

True Qi is constantly being transformed in the body.

Time passed by minute by minute.

A little Sunday.

Three little weeks.

Nine small weeks.

An hour passed and the effect of the medicine ended.

Chen Yunjing felt it carefully and found that the amount of true energy he had increased tonight was only slightly more than what he had practiced actively.

"Now that I am only in the early stage of an intermediate mage, the effect of the primary refining and transforming qi soup will become less and less obvious. If I reach the middle stage of cultivation, I am afraid that the effect will not be as good as if I take the initiative to practice."

Chen Yun couldn't help but shook his head, "In addition, the twelve servings of Qi Refining Decoction are almost finished. I will stay in Qingcheng for the next three years to meditate. I think the growth rate of my cultivation will slow down."

If it were before, he would have become very anxious when he learned that his cultivation speed was about to slow down.

Just following his mentor for so long in practicing Taoism, Chen Yun's mentality has been tempered, and he knows that some things cannot be rushed.

Waidan can indeed help you quickly improve your cultivation, but it also has "side effects", that is, it will make your control of power and state of mind unable to keep up.

The control of power is relatively easy to solve.

Once you calm down and become more familiar with the power, you will be able to master it in no time.

It’s just that it’s troublesome to keep up with this state of mind.

Wang Siyan came over this time with the oral training from his mentor.

After hearing this, Chen Yun realized that he had fallen into the tribulation of lust and could not extricate himself.

He knew that he could not solve the problem, and even if his words came true in the future, he was afraid that one day the problem would become serious, and his entire cultivation would be reduced to ashes and fall into reincarnation.

Or if you have done a lot of good deeds, you will be named a minor god by the Three Officials Emperor after your death and receive incense and blessings.

Chen Yun had seen the earth god before and knew the disadvantages of using incense to become a god.

Once faith is lost, powerful gods will also fall.

Therefore, he feels that if he can follow the "immortal way", he should try not to follow the "divine way".

"In the past three years, I will first hone my state of mind, and by the way, I will practice powerful spells such as the Golden Light Curse and Hutian Technique until I can reach a small level. After three years, my state of mind should have improved a lot. By then, I will go to collect the world. Use the spiritual roots to brew a more advanced Qi-refining soup."

While Chen Yun was prepared for slow growth in his cultivation, he also set goals for himself.

Once you have mastered the Golden Light Curse and Hutian Technique to a small degree, you will have a greater chance of obtaining the spiritual roots of heaven and earth by yourself.
