From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 55: Fate
After finding a tourist center in Leidongping to charge their cell phones which had been turned off for a long time, Li Yang and Chi Yanhong slowly walked down the mountain.

On the way down the mountain, many tourists kept looking at him, but not because of Li Yang, but because of Chi Yanhong.

Chi Yanhong changed into casual clothes at this time. He had fair skin and bright red lips. After obtaining the root method at Jinding, Chi Yanhong's obsession was released. It can be said that he "let go of the breeze around the earth and revealed the moon in the blue sky". His temperament became more and more dignified.

Walking on the street with such a girl with such a beautiful appearance and temperament is a very eye-catching thing.

"The Yangwu Qi-eating method is indeed mysterious. It allows people to get a glimpse of the secrets of practice before they even get started." Chi Yanhong sighed and looked at Li Yang, who was walking in front of him, in confusion.

Although she has inherited the Yangwu Qi-eating method, she has not yet reached the stage where the spiritual energy can enter her body and circulate throughout the body. She still needs a lot of time in seclusion to practice.

But when she looked at Li Yang's condition on the Golden Summit, she could clearly see that he had already mastered the fundamental method of Yangji.

She had read through all the Taoist texts left by her master, but had never seen any record of anyone being able to practice both yin and yang root methods at the same time.

"The Yangji Root Method does have some tricks, and it has advantages over the Yuchan Qi Food Method in terms of nourishing the spirit and cultivation conditions." Li Yang nodded, and noticed Chi Yanhong's gaze, and asked in confusion: "Daoyou, what are you looking at?"

"No, I just lamented that the Yangyang Root Method had been hidden in the Golden Summit for who knows how many years, and there were countless tourists coming and going, but in the end we got it."

"Indeed, with the resurgence of spiritual energy, many opportunities are hidden among the common people, but most people cannot see the true face of Mount Lu with their mortal eyes."

Li Yang shook his head with a sigh and walked all the way to Jiulao Cave.

At this time, Jiulao Cave was still closed, the two little monks were not there, and the entrance of the cave was covered with warning signs.

Li Yang knew that all the Tibetan macaques in the cave had returned to the ecological monkey area. As if he had thought of something, he walked into the cave alone.

Chi Yanhong waited outside for a long time before he saw Li Yang coming out of Jiulao Cave holding a strange stone.

"This is a Kunlun embryo. Its essence has been plundered, leaving only a little bit of energy. But when the staff at Mount Emei discovered that the Tibetan macaques had left Jiulao Cave, as soon as the tourists entered the cave, this wonderful creature would be exposed. I'm afraid it will really turn into stone again."

Li Yang took out a piece of clothing and wrapped the Kunlun fetus. Chi Yanhong was shocked that such a legendary thing really existed, and at the same time he lamented that the world had brought him so many disasters.

Seeing Chi Yanhong's curiosity, Li Yang handed the Kunlun fetus package to Chi Yanhong, but Chi Yanhong repeatedly withdrew his hands and refused: "This kind of spiritual object cannot be contaminated by worldly breath before it becomes a Tao. You are already a congenital one, so it's okay, but if I touch it, it will ruin his Taoism."

Li Yang was surprised. It was the first time he heard such a statement, so he took the package and went around the mountain road.

He had no intention of bringing the half-dead Kunlun fetus back to Baiyun Mountain. Instead, he found the small hill where Jin Chan was hiding when he was seriously injured. He used the Moon Essence Wheel to make a hole on the top of the hill and buried the Kunlun fetus inside.

"I don't know if this will be of any use to you. I took your earth milk, so I'm giving you a share of karma. This place is quiet and uninhabited, so it should be good for you."

There was residual snow on the mountain peaks, and Li Yang found some broken ice, sand and gravel to restore the place to its original state.

After going down Jiulao Cave, the two suddenly found a group of Tibetan macaques surrounding a white monkey with sad expressions in the ecological monkey area.

Li Yang took a closer look and found that it was the same white-haired Tibetan monkey king as before, but this time it had multiple wounds on its body, its hair was dark and covered with blood and mud, and even one of its eyes was blind. The little monkey had disappeared.

Looking at the miserable state of the Monkey King, Li Yang immediately realized that the little monkey was probably captured by someone. It should be that the two people who attacked the monkey group during the time he went up the mountain, injured the Monkey King and took away the little monkey.

Looking at the Monkey King's pleading eyes, Li Yang sighed:
"The little monkey has taken away Kunlun's fortune, which means he has taken on Kunlun's fate. This is only the first catastrophe. There will be infinite catastrophes in the future, and I cannot resolve them. But those two also hurt my people. If they meet me, I will naturally ask for the cause and effect."

The Monkey King seemed to understand what Li Yang meant. He bowed twice to Li Yang like a human, and then, with the help of the monkeys, he went to Jiulao Cave, where there was a pool of diluted earth milk that could help him heal his wounds.

Looking at the Monkey King's back, Li Yang suddenly said: "You and I are the first group of people practicing in this modern society. The disasters and obstacles we face are no less than theirs. We have to tread on thin ice all the time. Fellow Daoist, do you think we can reach the other side?" Li Yang's words were bleak, revealing a sense of vicissitudes.

Chi Yanhong covered his mouth and smiled: "Don't pretend, you now have the Yin-Yang Root Method in your body, and you have practiced the Moon Essence Wheel, but you are still walking on thin ice."

"I'm not expressing my feelings."

"Okay, Master Li, but I have to warn you, if you keep going for a while longer we will miss the high-speed train."

"Don't worry, we'll make it in time. I bought a high-speed train ticket for three days later."

"? Why three days later?"

"I still need to look for some more things on Mount Emei..." Li Yang smiled and took out the stone he got from Nie Wei.

After three days, the spiritual energy in the stone had barely recovered to 1/5, and it would take an estimated half a month to fully recover.

Most of the internship locations at Shuchuan University of Technology were at the foot of the mountain. The two rented a hotel there. In the following time, Li Yang visited each of the internship locations given by Nie Wei.

Chi Yanhong had not yet reached the innate state and could not tell which stones were spiritual stones. He had no choice but to stay in the hotel and comprehend the Jade Leaf Golden Tablet and the Yangwu Qi Eating Method every day.

After a day of exploration, on the next morning, Li Yang finally found two spirit stones in the Zilan Cave at the foot of the mountain.

Zilan Cave is a natural karst cave with underground rivers running in all directions. These spiritual stones seem to have flowed out from the interior of Mount Emei along the underground rivers.

He searched the entire Zilan Cave and checked the springs and waterfalls along a line along the underground river. In the end, he found 14 spirit stones, plus the original one, a total of 15.

Standing in the Zilan Cave, Li Yang stroked the hard stone wall and sighed in despair. He knew that there should be a lot of spiritual stones inside the mountain, but if this amount of work was not done by the official, there would be no way to develop all the spiritual stones inside Mount Emei.

He could only drill a few meters using the Moon Essence Wheel before he became exhausted. Moreover, the rock mass of the cave was very unstable. If it collapsed while he was drilling and he was buried in the mountain, that would be courting death.

On the morning of the third day, carrying a pile of stones, Li Yang and Chi Yanhong finally got on the high-speed train back to Mei County.

"You said these stones are really spiritual stones?"

Chi Yanhong held a stone in her hand and looked at it back and forth. She carefully sensed it for a long time, but could not notice any difference between it and the stones that could be seen everywhere on the roadside.
