I am an immortal in heaven and earth

Chapter 456: The Grandmaster’s Show
The Huashan Sect is now thriving, at least that was the case when Xu Jia was around.

In the Huashan Sect, including all the Buddhist and Taoist temples, there are a total of 327 people who have orthodox monk and Taoist certificates and practice orthodox Buddhism and Taoism. As for those who have practiced orthodoxy before, there are only 83 of them.

But now, the founder has shown mercy and bestowed upon us the Huashan School's basic martial arts, the "Huashan White Ape Kung Fu", which is an extremely exquisite light Kung Fu that can be practiced from the inside out. As long as you master the corresponding breathing rhythm and movement techniques, you can go up and down the mountain briskly with great endurance, and you can also generate acquired true Qi from the soles of your feet, from the outside to the inside.

There is also a Huashan Liangyi Sword, which is simple and easy to learn and not difficult to get started. This sword technique can also cultivate true Qi. There are two streams of true Qi, one in the hand, which circulates the three yang meridians of the hand, which is the small circulation of the upper meridians.

One branch is in the foot, running through the three yin and three yang meridians of the foot, which is the small circulation of the lower meridian.

By combining two of them, one can complete the twelve main meridians. After completing the main meridians and integrating the profound aspects, one can completely open up the Ren and Du meridians, then one can practice the Great Circulation and break through the innate realm.

By then, you can also practice Huashan Xiantian Gong. If you stand out, you can even be awarded Xiantian Zixia Zhenqi or Chen Tuan Sleeping Gong. These three are all earth immortal-level skills that are sufficient to repair the Xiantian realm and even to refine the golden elixir.

This alone would have been fine, they just felt that the master had mercy on them and that the Huashan Sect should prosper.

But when Xu Jialian let Huo Caner distribute one pill of the Zixia Pill, a foundation-building elixir, to each of them, they completely switched sides and became loyal to the Huashan Sect.

Even if they think that this ancestor is not a ancestor, that the two elders of Huashan have forgotten their ancestors, and that the elimination of those unorthodox ways is cruel and without any consideration for human feelings - after all, some of the disciples' friends have also engaged in unorthodox ways, and they do not feel that they are willing to fall, and some even think that there are many hypocrites in the righteous way, but there are true righteousness in the unorthodox ways...

At this time, he got a panacea. After refining it, his magic power became pure, his Taoism level was improved, and it could even heal old injuries, eliminate internal toxins, and cleanse his meridians and marrow.

Since then, they have come to think: "Those unorthodox practitioners should be killed. They are hindering my progress."

If someone asks them, they will say: "In the past, we didn't care about our dirty deeds, but now we understand that outsiders are just outsiders after all, and it's better to be with our own family."

After all, if such a magic pill were to circulate among the independent cultivators and unorthodox sects in the outside world, it could cause fathers to kill their sons, sons to kill their fathers, husbands and wives to turn against each other, and masters and apprentices to become enemies!

How many Yangshen Zhenren in the outside world have such superb means and are willing to open the furnace to refine elixirs for their low-level disciples?
How many people can go to the blessed land and cave of the ancient female immortals to collect magical herbs and refine elixirs?

How many people can collect a huge amount of purple air coming from the east, cultivate a magical herb called Ganoderma lucidum, and transform from a Ganoderma horse into a Ganoderma dragon?

Or maybe an alchemy furnace like this, and several kinds of spiritual fires from heaven and earth?
Although Xu Jia didn't think much of it, he could refine 3,600 pills in one breath. But if it were a terrestrial immortal, it might take him three to five years to refine, and only produce eight or nine pills, and he would have to keep up with his own disciples, relatives and friends.

Those who did not practice cultivation, when they got this kind of elixir, even attracted the covetousness of the disciples who had already practiced cultivation: "Why give such a good thing to mortals? Do they know how to eat it?"

If it weren't for the order of the founder and the new rules of the sect, which prohibited fellow disciples from killing each other, plotting against each other, and even swearing an extremely vicious oath, many mortal disciples' pills would have been stolen that night.

However, these "mortal disciples" soon understood the purpose of the elixir.

They couldn't digest it even if they swallowed it, so they just held it in their mouths, slowly refining it with the help of saliva, and then practiced martial arts. It was truly like one day of practice was equivalent to a hundred days of practice.

Among the mortals, there were old Buddhist scripture masters and Taoist alchemy masters who were in their seventies and eighties. They did not cultivate their lives but only their natures, chanted scriptures, repented, and meditated. Although they also took measures to maintain their health, their blood and marrow gradually became dry. After taking the elixir, they actually began to produce blood again, and their body's vitality was awakened.

Although those who have been dealing with Buddhist and Taoist scriptures for many years have never practiced formally, they do not need anyone to point out the key points. As long as they understand the meaning of the classics, there will be no confusion.

Nowadays, there are already 100-year-old Zen masters who have achieved the Xiantian realm in seven days, and 89-year-old alchemists who have achieved the Xiantian realm in three days. Although they have the help of elixirs, they can achieve it very quickly when they start practicing at such an old age. This also inspires a large number of ordinary disciples of Huashan Sect, and even some disciples who have already reached the Xiantian Qigong realm, to ask them about Zen principles, Taoist scriptures and philosophy.

When Huo Caner heard that the two old mortals had such abilities, he let them comprehend the three innate skills on their own.

The old Taoist had some vision. He thought that since the master was still around, he naturally practiced the Huashan Xiantian Gong created by the master. Although anyone could learn it, it did not mean that it was inferior to Zixia Zhenqi and Chen Tuan's sleeping skills.

However, the old monk, who had been practicing Zen meditation and cultivating his spirit, had already reached a certain level of Buddhism. He then learned Chen Tuan's sleeping technique, continued to restrain his vitality, comprehended the nirvana of withering and flourishing, and was like sleeping but not sleeping. His spirit was connected with the Dharma Realm, and he listened to the wonderful Buddhist teachings in the Buddhist Pure Land in the Dharma Realm.

Xu Jia's attitude towards this was quite tolerant. After all, they were also part of the Huashan Sect.

However, the disciples all felt that the Huashan Sect was a direct descendant of Taoism, and some monks had sneaked in, so they were somewhat discriminated against.

More importantly, during this campaign to clean up the unorthodox sects, the most people killed were those hiding in Buddhist temples. There were so many evil spirits and monsters, and they felt that there were more unorthodox monks than decent ones.

Even if this centenarian Zen master is truly devoted to worshipping Buddha, he may not necessarily be respected.

Xu Jia did not pay attention to these small matters. Instead, he hoped that the Buddhist sect could grow stronger and make the Taoist sect feel oppressed, although he did not make a clear statement of his own. For example, he would pass on to them the Buddhist heritage obtained from Zen Master Baiyun and the heterodox Buddhist teachings of the Western Region Golden Buddhist Kingdom.

If the Huashan Sect has the three major inheritances of Patriarch Chen Tuan, Patriarch Dutian Liehuo, and Xu Jia, and can still be overtaken by Buddhism, then its fate is truly over.

Except for these two old monks and old Taoist priests, who achieved the innate realm in one go, most of the other ordinary disciples could only barely enter the acquired warrior realm.

Taoists, monks, and miscellaneous sects who are neither Taoists nor monks but dress like laymen are lined up in the square outside the main hall of the sect on the Jade Maiden Peak of Mount Huashan.

Xu Jia carried two swords on his back, one was the Wei Ji Immortal Sword, and the other was the Du Tian Fiery Sword. He held a Ling Bao Ruyi in his hand, and sitting on the Ten Thousand Crows Fire Cloud formed by the Ten Thousand Crows Pot.

The Dutian Fiery Array flag is hidden in the void and is used as the Huashan Sect's mountain protection formation.

The fire silkworm transformed into a boy and served beside him.

Next are two earthly immortals from side sects, the Two Elders of Mount Hua, who serve as the left and right protectors.

Next are Duan Ziyu, Huang Yi, Drunken Beggar, and Shanren.

Duan Ziyu is the eldest true disciple and is listed separately.

Huang Yi is from the Taoist school, Shanren is from the Buddhist school, and the Drunken Beggar is from the miscellaneous school.

Next came the rest of the Huashan Sect’s ordinary disciples and outer disciples, who were arranged according to their seniority.

It's quite neat.
