From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 89: The Elixir Returns
The seal carving process cannot tolerate any carelessness. Any mistake in the pattern may lead to a significant reduction in the final effect of the Moon Essence Wheel.

Li Yang estimated that at the previous speed, he would be able to complete the engraving of 108 moon patterns in two weeks.
Gao Miao did not disturb him, but waited by the side with his head lowered, just like he did at Baiyun Mountain.

They waited until early morning, when the moon energy in the sky and earth began to descend and the Li Yangyue wheel started to rotate. Gao Miao then stepped forward to inform Qi Qiansu of the situation.

When Li Yang heard Gao Miao mention the red seal and the people coming from Qingcheng Mountain, his expression was amused.

Chi Yanhong smiled and said to Li Yang: "I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Qi is a little late. If he had come to see you in Baiyun Mountain, he might have been of some use..."

Li Yang did not comment, and said: "To be able to cultivate something at this time, he must be a guy with outstanding talent in the Taoist sect. No matter what, let's meet him."

Gao Miao heard a hint of teasing in the two men's voices, but couldn't figure out what they meant. When he saw that Li Yang agreed, he hurried down the mountain to find Qi Qiansu and Wuming.

"Thank you!"

After waiting for a whole night, Qi Qiansu did not show any dissatisfaction, and Wuming never showed any emotion on his face.

After straightening his Taoist robe, Qi Qiansu thanked him and headed towards the Golden Summit of Emei Mountain with Wuming.

After chatting with Qi Qianshu for a whole night, Zen Master Chang Zhen did not feel sleepy at all. He was even quite interested in watching Qi Qianshu going up the mountain. If he was not afraid of breaking the rules, he would even want to go to the Golden Summit with Qi Qianshu.

Gao Miao looked at the old monk who was smiling like a fox, and asked in confusion: "Two Taoists are meeting, why are you, a monk, so excited?"

After many days of entanglement with Old Monk Chang Zhen, the two of them became familiar with each other.

"Fool, what do you know? I have never heard of this Taoist priest Qi Qiansu before, and there has been no movement from Qingcheng Mountain. Now a Xiantian suddenly appears, which shows that he has made a breakthrough recently."

"What? Master Qi is innate!" Gao Miao was shocked. He knew the word innate. It was unclear whether it was known in foreign countries or not, but there were currently three confirmed innate people in China.

I didn’t expect that there is one more person now, who is officially trained and affiliated with the official.

"Think about it carefully. This Taoist Qi had just broken through to the Xiantian realm, and then he was asked by the authorities to bring Wuming, who was also approaching the Xiantian combat power, to Mount Emei to find Master Li. Why was that?"

"This... is not clear..."

Gao Miao was stunned when he heard this, he had never thought about this, but it was true that Wuming's strength was approaching that of the innate level. The three-refined guardian of the Liu sect was almost defeated by him before.

"Foolish boy, you have not awakened your innate wisdom. You have not understood the cause and effect of the world, so you naturally cannot see through it." Chang Zhen shook his head regretfully. Gao Miao's face turned dark. This old monk still has the evil intention of converting him to Buddhism!

Seeing Gao Miao's strange expression, Master Chang Zhen quickly explained with a smile: "The current cultivation pattern has not yet taken shape. The spiritual energy has been revived for less than half a year, and many folk Dharma lines have not yet emerged."

"But in China, all cultivation resources and the development rights of famous mountains are in the hands of the government. The only one who is above the rest is the one in Baiyun Mountain."

"The reason why Baiyun Mountain is so outstanding is because that person's cultivation level has leapt too far. When the authorities were only just beginning to realize it, he had already reached the Xiantian level. Now that Qingcheng Mountain has also cultivated a Xiantian, the authorities will definitely test whether that person's transcendence should continue."

Gao Miao was shocked and quickly argued, "How is that possible? We specially invited Master Li to take charge of the Emei Mountain Blood Demon incident..."

"Fool, this kind of detachment is not allowed in any dynasty. Besides, officials have two mouths, but in fact, there are more than two. There are bound to be different voices within a large organization.

As long as those voices exist, the trial and comparison between the Qingcheng Mountain Xiantian and the Baiyun Mountain Xiantian will definitely happen."

The old monk spoke with such certainty that Gao Miao was stunned. The more he looked at the old monk, the more he felt that he was not serious.

At this age, even my eyelashes are empty.

Hearing this, Gao Miao was also a little worried. Although he was affiliated with the government, he was undoubtedly closer to Baiyun Mountain in terms of emotions.

"So, who do you think is more powerful, Li Zhenren or this Taoist Priest Qi?" "There is no doubt about that, but what Li Zhenren wants is transcendence, and the word transcendence is not just about comparing who is better."

"Besides, Qi Qiansu and Wuming are not easy to deal with..."

The old monk's tone was so leisurely that Gao Miao couldn't help but want to go to the Golden Summit to watch the fight.

He has realized that this will be a battle that will affect the domestic cultivation policies for a long time.

"Amitabha, there are innate people in Qingcheng Mountain and Baiyun Mountain, but there is no movement in my sect on Mount Wutai. Mr. Gao, let's talk about your joining the sect!" Old Monk Chang Zhen changed the subject and looked at Gao Miao with a gleam in his eyes.

"Hey, Mr. Gao, please don't leave. I can promise that if you join the Buddhist sect, I can help you achieve Xiantian status within half a year."

"Slow down, benefactor. I can't catch up. Sigh, young people nowadays don't know how to respect the elderly."
-
At the Golden Summit of Emei Mountain, when Qi Qiansu saw Li Yang, Li Yang was meditating with his eyes closed, and his aura was mysterious and profound.

I felt the breath and opened my eyes to see a thin middle-aged Taoist priest, Li Yangming. This was the innate one from Qingcheng Mountain.

"Qi Qianshu from Qingcheng Mountain has met Taoist Priest Li from Baiyun Mountain."

Qi Qianshu bowed, and after Li Yang returned the greeting, he opened his hand and suspended two cushions, which flew towards Qi Qianshu and Wuming.

So on the open-air meditation platform, Li Yang and Chi Yanhong sat on one side, and Wuming and Qi Qiansu sat on the other side.

The situation was not as tense as outsiders imagined. Except for Wuming, the other three were all Taoists, and they were able to chat happily about Buddhist scriptures and profound theories.

After talking about many classics, Li Yang also discovered the shortcomings of himself as a half-way Taoist priest. He knew about the existence of books like "Zhouyi Cantongqi" and "Huangting Jing", but he had never studied them seriously.

So, in this lecture on the profound principles, Chi Yanhong and Qi Qiansu exchanged ideas with each other, and every word they said was precious.

Seeing that the terms used by the two people were becoming more and more unfamiliar, Li Yang, who could only say "Daoyou, what you said is very true," hurriedly interrupted and said:
"I wonder how the official investigation into the Blood Demon is going?"

Qi Qiansu's face straightened when he heard this: "We have currently detected that the blood demon has escaped along the earth veins to the southern part of Sichuan, but the exact location has not yet been pinpointed."

Chi Yanhong then asked, "Where is the Venerable?"

"This is quite strange. According to fellow Taoists Zheng Zhaoyuan and Wu Peng, the Venerable should be a Chinese. However, after looking through the population information of China, no one can be compared with the Venerable."

I knew that the old cunning bastard of the Venerable Master was not that easy to deal with! Li Yang thought to himself that he had already seen the insidious and cautious nature of this guy when he was in Baiyun Mountain.

Several people were silent, and Qi Qiansu was the first to speak and get to the point.

"It is not my original intention to come here this time, but since ancient times, people who have learned literary and martial arts have been sold to the imperial family. I am here to test the law this time, and I hope that Fellow Daoist Li can understand."

At this time, Chi Yanhong also whispered to Li Yang: "This Qi Qiansu's cultivation is not low. He is practicing the alchemy method of enlightening the mind and seeing the nature, and he is almost at the perfect and flawless spiritual elixir transformation realm."

At their level, whispering is no different from making loud noises. Qi Qiansu laughed at himself:
“It’s not that I don’t want to achieve perfection, it’s just that the slow and steady work is too time-consuming, and the higher-ups can’t wait any longer. But since I’ve entered the Xiantian realm, the road to truth is long, and I also want to see the abilities of the two Xiantian Daoists.”

Qi Qiansu and Wuming's aura grew stronger as they spoke.
Li Yang was a little speechless and quickly interrupted Qi Qiansu's words.

"I know why you're here. Although you're pretty good, I've never said that I'm still a congenital..."

Li Yang shook his head, and his aura was no longer concealed. The surging spiritual power unique to this kind of Taoism made Qi Qiansu's face freeze.
