Honghuang: My understanding is beyond belief. I am the first immortal of Jiejiao.

Chapter 24: The fight among the Three Pure Ones, the recruitment of disciples, the beginning of the Taoist Mysticism! (First published in Chuangshi)

Kunlun Mountains, Qilin Cliff.

In order to test the cultivation level of his three direct disciples, Sanqing let the three disciples compete on the spot.

Since Lin Zhu's cultivation level is higher, Guangchengzi and Xuandu join forces to fight Lin Zhu.

The three of them were ready to make a move, and they did not hold back at all when they attacked.

Guangchengzi and Xuandu wanted to show off in front of their master, and knowing that Lin Zhu had a high level of cultivation, they tried their best.

Lin Zhu was far superior to the other two in both fighting experience and cultivation, so he seemed quite calm.

He only defended and did not attack, and no matter how the two men attacked, they could not pose any threat to him.

How could the situation of these three people be hidden from the discerning eyes of the three saints?

The Three Pure Ones all saw that Lin Zhu was intending to let him win.

At the same time, he also understood that Lin Zhu's strength was far superior to that of Guangchengzi and Xuandu.

Laozi didn't have any ideas. The principle he followed was to rule by doing nothing.

But Yuanshi Tianzun, who had always been fond of fighting, felt a little uncomfortable.

He searched for countless years before he found Guangchengzi, a good candidate with excellent background and qualifications.

Lin Zhu is much better than Guangchengzi in every aspect.

How could Master Tongtian have such a good fate to have such an outstanding disciple?

It’s not that Guangchengzi is not excellent, it’s just that Lin Zhu is too outstanding.

On the other hand, a smile appeared on Tongtian Sect Master's face.

Lin Zhu acted with moderation. He had profound cultivation and fighting experience. He was willing to give in to his two junior brothers, which could be said to be knowing when to advance and when to retreat.

Not only his talent, but also his personality and conduct are impeccable.

Master Tongtian stroked his chin and felt more and more pleased with his eldest disciple.

……

When Sanqing saw that Lin Zhu and others had been fighting for a while without any result, he decided to stop.

After all, there is no point in fighting any further.

Yuanshi Tianzun shouted: "That's enough, today's fight ends here."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhu, Guangchengzi and Xuandu immediately stopped and came to pay homage to the three saints.

The Supreme Master nodded slightly and praised generously, "It seems that your practice and travels these days have not been in vain, and you have gained a lot!"

Upon seeing this, Master Tongtian also said: "That's right, he has made rapid progress, and his future achievements are limitless."

Yuanshi Tianzun hesitated for a moment, and praised the three people, but there was a bit of strangeness in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhu, Guangchengzi and Xuandu hurriedly thanked the three saints.

However, Guangchengzi and Xuandu were aware of the gap between themselves and Lin Zhu, and they had a bit more respect for their senior brother Lin Zhu.

Next, the Three Pure Ones began to teach the Dharma separately and make up for the shortcomings of Lin Zhu and the other two based on their performance.

Seeing that Lin Zhu had excellent aptitude and performed well, almost impeccably, Master Tongtian taught Lin Zhu the swordsmanship.

Seeing this, Lin Zhu thought for a moment and said, "Master, I have understood some of the essence of swordsmanship, but I am not proficient enough. I hope you can give me some guidance."

The essence of Kendo?

Master Tongtian's eyelids twitched slightly. He never expected that Lin Zhu could actually figure out the essence of swordsmanship on his own!
The essence of kendo is the culmination of kendo and is extremely mysterious.

Even he only comprehended the essence of swordsmanship after practicing swordsmanship for countless years.

No one expected that Lin Zhu would figure out the essence of swordsmanship on his own.

Even at the Golden Immortal realm, he has realized such a profound meaning of the sword... his comprehension is amazing!

Even a saint like him could not help but envy such talent.

Master Tongtian secretly sighed in his heart, thinking that he had finally accepted a good disciple.

Then, Master Tongtian asked Lin Zhu to practice the Qingping sword technique.

After hearing this, Lin Zhu raised his hand and activated the Qingping sword intent.

hum!
The Qingping Sword was raised, and the overwhelming sword intent swept in all directions, immediately alarming Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Laozi, who were teaching their disciples.

Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Laozi were slightly moved and came to watch Lin Zhu's practice.

Seeing that Lin Zhu's understanding of the way of the sword was so profound, the two men couldn't help but look at Lin Zhu with even higher regard, and sighed that Master Tongtian was really lucky to have accepted a good disciple and could pass on his legacy to him!

...Not long after, Lin Zhu finished his practice, and Master Tongtian also gave some pointers, all of which were aimed at Lin Zhu's shortcomings.

Lin Zhu gained a lot and thanked Master Tongtian for his teachings.

It took another hundred years to pass on this teaching.

Under the careful guidance of Master Tongtian, Lin Zhu's cultivation also made rapid progress and reached the peak of the Golden Immortal realm.

Tongtian Patriarch saw this and nodded with satisfaction.

After the teachings were passed on, Lin Zhu and the other two thanked the three great saints, and then went into seclusion to digest their insights.

Among them, Lin Zhu's retreat and practice is primarily aimed at stabilizing his cultivation at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm. He is only one step away from achieving the Taiyi realm.

When the Golden Immortal enters Taiyi, there is another big hurdle.

Only when one reaches the level of Five Qis Converging to Origin can one enter the realm of Taiyi.

Among the countless cultivators in the ancient times, many have been stuck at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm for countless years, and none of them are able to break the shackles of Taiyi and achieve the realm of Five Qis Converging to Origin.

Lin Zhu knew that he couldn't be impatient to achieve the realm of Taiyi. He needed to continue to hone himself at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm before he could naturally enter the realm of Taiyi.

……

Hundreds of years later, the Three Pure Ones suddenly summoned their three disciples.

Lin Zhu then broke through the barrier, came to the Taoist temple and paid homage to the saint.

When I stepped into the Taoist temple, I saw the Three Pure Ones, Guangchengzi and Xuandu were all there.

So he stepped forward and greeted the three saints.

Tong Tian Sect Master said: "Lin Zhu, I want to travel around the prehistoric world with your uncle to find people with outstanding talents, take them in as disciples, and promote Jiejiao."

"Therefore, your master uncle will teach you during these days."

"If you have any doubts during your practice, you can ask your master for advice."

Hearing this, Lin Zhu couldn't help but feel confused.

Does a saint need to look for disciples himself?
If the news gets out, there will surely be many powerful and mighty people from the ancient times who will come to join us.

"Yes, Master."

Then, Lin Zhu asked about his doubts.

Master Tongtian smiled and explained: "Ordinary disciples should be more casual, but disciples are the backbone of the sect and belong to the basic base, so they cannot be sloppy."

"If there are some fake people, it might shake the foundation of the sect."

That's it!

After hearing this, Lin Zhu immediately understood.

He naturally knew that Yuanshi Tianzun paid attention to the background of his disciples when accepting them.

It seems that the disciples who appeared in the later Conferred God Tribulation were also carefully selected.

Taishang Laozi did not plan to recruit any more disciples, so he stayed in Kunlun Mountain.

At that moment, the two saints, Tongtian Jiaozhu and Yuanshi Tianzun, left.

Guangchengzi and Lin Zhu paid their respects to Taishang Laozi again.

The Supreme Master smiled and said, "From now on, if you two have any doubts, you can ask me and I will give you guidance."

"In a few days, I will start refining the elixir, and you can come and watch."

Lin Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this.

Laozi's understanding of the Dao of Alchemy is the most advanced in the prehistoric world.

If you can watch it, you will definitely gain a lot.

The two men thanked Laozi and then returned to the cave.

……

Sure enough, a few days later, Xuan Du came to find Lin Zhu and said that Taishang Laozi was going to open the altar to make elixirs, and asked Lin Zhu and Guangchengzi to go and watch.

Lin Zhu and Guang Chengzi came to Taishang Laozi's alchemy room.

When Taishang Laozi saw the two of them coming, he said without hesitation: "I want to teach the Xuandu alchemy, you two can watch. Today I will open the alchemy hall. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

Lin Zhu and Guang Chengzi quickly agreed.

Then, Taishang Laozi began to prepare the medicinal materials, and explained while selecting the herbs.
