Chapter 321 Heavenly Master on Earth
Tang Sanzang cast an inquiring look and fell on Sun Wukong.
"No, something is very wrong." Sun Wukong scratched his head, frowning. He had an indescribable strange feeling in his heart, but it was difficult to figure out the specific reason.
"Why have the mountain gods and land gods of this place disappeared?" He looked around with confusion in his tone.
"And the six Ding and six Jia guardian gods in the sky have also disappeared!" Sun Wukong continued, frowning even more tightly.
"I guess something urgent must have happened, so they didn't even have time to say hello to me, Old Sun, and they rushed over in a hurry." He muttered to himself, his eyes involuntarily turned in the direction of Che Chi, although he didn't know that the incident happened there.
"What on earth could have caused all these gods and spirits, as well as the six celestial beings like the Six Dings and Six Jias, to rush over in such a hurry?" Zhu Bajie was puzzled. As the former Marshal of the Heavenly Peng, he knew the system of the Heavenly Court very well, and was therefore even more puzzled.
"Even if something happens in the Heavenly Court, at most they would just call back the gods like the Six Dings and Six Jias." He shook his head and continued, "Earth gods like the mountain gods and the land gods usually don't go up to the Heaven to be summoned. Their duty is to protect the land."
Zhu Bajie frowned, he really couldn't understand the situation in front of him. However, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he said hesitantly: "Unless... it is another situation."
"What's going on?" Sun Wukong asked immediately, his curiosity was completely aroused.
Not only Sun Wukong, but even Tang Sanzang and Sha Seng were all puzzled. What kind of situation could cause all the gods and spirits on earth to come out?
"Unless someone summons them, and they are called by Taoists, they can go out together." Zhu Bajie explained, "Taoists have the ability to command gods, because they are all in the Taoist system."
"The system of earthly gods and spirits was also established by Taoism, so some Taoist masters can command them at will." He continued, "However, if even gods like the Six Dings and Six Jias who already have missions are summoned, it means that the person who commands them is of extraordinary status."
"What kind of identity is required to achieve this?" Sun Wukong asked curiously.
Zhu Bajie pondered for a moment and said slowly: "At least one has to be a Taoist Heavenly Master, which is equivalent to the status of a Taoist master in the world, to be able to do this."
"It's not enough to just have status, you also need great magical power, so that your orders can spread far and wide." He added, "But as far as I know, there are very few such people in the world, except for the immortals who have descended to the earth."
"Besides, what on earth is it that requires summoning all the gods in the world?" He muttered to himself, his heart full of doubts.
Just then, a rumbling sound was heard, as if huge mountains were passing by.
I saw great mountain gods and land gods from the East rushing over. Each of them was very powerful. For example, some mountain gods of the Three Mountains and Five Peaks even had the title of "Emperor", which showed their power.
These mountain gods, in various shapes, rushed towards Che Chi. Along the way, countless demons were alarmed, but they all trembled in fear and dared not to stop them.
"What happened?" Zhu Bajie raised his head and felt the huge movement.
The mountain gods were in a hurry, and one could only hear their voices but could hardly see them. Sun Wukong looked with his flaming eyes and saw the true appearance of these mountain gods.
"It's the mountain god, a powerful mountain god from the three mountains and five peaks." Sun Wukong replied.
Zhu Bajie was shocked: "Even the mountain gods of the three mountains and five peaks of the East have gone there? What big event has happened?" He couldn't help but look in the direction of Che Chi, muttering to himself: "Something big must have happened, which made all the gods rush there in a hurry."
Sun Wukong was also extremely curious, and even wanted to use his somersault cloud to follow and see what was going on over there. But when he thought of Tang Sanzang still being there, and that he still had the golden hoop on his head, he stopped and suppressed his curiosity.
"It may be something within the Taoist sect and has nothing to do with us," he said.
Zhu Bajie also echoed, "If the sky falls, there are masters to hold it up. We just need to study hard and get the scriptures."
"In fact, there is no need to go to the temple to learn the sutra honestly. The master might stay here to become a live-in son-in-law and enjoy a happy life." At this time, a joking voice suddenly came from the side. It turned out that the Mother of Mount Li and the three Bodhisattvas had transformed into a family and were testing the group by taking in a son-in-law.
Soon, the Mother of Mount Li and the three Bodhisattvas reappeared, and they continued the experiment as if nothing had happened. After this test, among the four masters and apprentices including Tang Sanzang, only Zhu Bajie still had worldly thoughts.
After the experiment, the Mother of Mount Li and the three Bodhisattvas laughed loudly and then floated away, leaving Tang Sanzang and his four disciples in bewilderment. Zhu Bajie was even more embarrassed: "It turned out to be the Mother of Mount Li and the Bodhisattvas, teasing me like this~"
After they had some fun, they continued on their way. After the Lishan Old Mother and the three Bodhisattvas left, the Lishan Old Mother did not leave immediately, but said in deep thought: "I want to go to that car to see it, I wonder if the Bodhisattvas would like to go with me?"
Their Zen Heart Test ended very quickly, so they could sense that the movement at Che Chi's side had not yet ended, and more earth gods and spirits were rushing over. Therefore, Lishan Laomu wanted to go and take a look.
The three Bodhisattvas looked at each other, but Guanyin slowly shook her head and said, "We still have to return to Lingshan, so it's inconvenient to go to Chechi."
This was just an excuse. Lishan Laomu was not a Buddhist, but had some connections with Taoism, and was considered an ancient immortal. However, the three Bodhisattvas were Buddhists, and going to Chechi Kingdom under such circumstances would undoubtedly seem a bit unconventional.
Therefore, the three Bodhisattvas simply decided not to go there. Then, they went their separate ways.
……
In Chechi Country, Taoist gods from heaven, earth, and the netherworld came one after another upon invitation. They left their names on the Nine Extreme Alliance Talisman. On the Nine Extreme Alliance Talisman, the names of immortals and gods were densely packed, shining with a mysterious light.
Gradually, golden light fell from the sky, sprinkling on Lin Nan's body and all over Chechi Country. At the same time, purple air came from the east, as if celebrating the grand scene at the moment.
At this moment, a butterfly appeared on the platform, dancing gracefully. Lin Nan couldn't help but look at it, and saw that the butterfly seemed to be a butterfly, and in his eyes it seemed to have turned into a Taoist priest who was sleeping soundly.
"Zhuang Zhou?" Lin Nan's heart was slightly shaken. He recognized the identity of the person who came. It was Zhuang Zhou, a milestone figure in Taoism. His status was extremely unique. After achieving enlightenment, he roamed freely between heaven and earth, and it was difficult to find his whereabouts.
But at this moment, Lin Nan was in Chechili Daoting, and he appeared here. It was hard to tell whether the butterfly was a butterfly or Zhuang Zhou himself. It was only seen flying above the high platform and hovering beside Lin Nan.
Suddenly, Lin Nan's mind was filled with "Xiaoyaoyou" and "Qiwulunjing", which were Zhuang Zhou's most brilliant achievements. He knew in his heart that Zhuang Zhou was passing on his teachings to him.
"Thank you Zhuangzi for teaching me the Dharma!" Lin Nan expressed his gratitude solemnly.
At this moment, the butterfly flew away to somewhere unknown and disappeared.
Above the sky, a brilliant light streaked across the sky and fell like a meteor into the territory of Chechi State. Lin Nan happened to look up and caught sight of this extraordinary light. He vaguely saw the figure of an immortal in it, and his heart was moved. It seemed that he had met this immortal once in heaven. "Could it be the immortal Huayang?" Lin Nan muttered to himself, and the name of the immortal flashed through his mind. For modern people, the name Huayang may be unfamiliar, but his reincarnation is a household name - Lü Dongbin, also known as Lü Chunyang, who is revered as the founder of the Quanzhen School.
"The Immortal Huayang actually went to Chechi Country?" Lin Nan was quite surprised. He didn't expect that he could witness the moment when Lü Dongbin was reincarnated into the lower world. At this moment, he didn't notice that among the crowd under the high platform, there was an inconspicuous lame man who was leaning on an iron crutch and silently looking up at him.
At the same time, other strange things were happening all over Chechi. On the high platform, Lin Nan continued to preside over the ceremony. He respectfully thanked the gods of heaven and earth and presented rich offerings, which were densely placed below. Although ordinary people could not see some supernatural beings, they could vaguely hear the laughter, clinking of wine glasses, and the sound of drinking and eating from in front of the offerings.
As the ceremony came to a successful conclusion, Lin Nan felt a sense of accomplishment. He had been recognized by the Supreme Being and given the Nine Extreme Alliance Talisman, which meant that his move to establish the Dao Court was destined to succeed from the beginning. However, although the Dao Court had been established, the Dao tradition had not yet been passed down.
When passing on the Taoist tradition, it would not be as grand as when the Taoist temple was established, attracting many gods in the Taoist system to come and watch the ceremony. However, Lin Nan has already named the Taoist tradition that is about to be passed on - Jiuji. From now on, the disciples he accepts and the lineage that will be passed on will be called "Jiuji".
As the vision gradually disappeared, the immortals also left. This long-prepared ceremony finally came to a successful conclusion as time went by. Lin Nan re-established the Taoist Temple in Chechi Middle School and shared a part of the Taoist fortune. To be more precise, it was because he established the Taoist Temple that Taoism had some new fortune.
Even Lu Dongbin, who originally carried part of the Taoist destiny and was destined to be reincarnated in the East, has now been born in Chechi Middle School.
The Chechi Taoist Temple founded by Lin Nan has begun to have some influence and can even be regarded as one of the authentic Taoist sects.
"From today on, I am the heavenly master on earth, Taoist Master Chechi!" Lin Nan said to himself. He clearly felt the change in his identity.
In the past, Zhang Daoling established the Dao Court and continued the name of Taoism. He was once revered as the "Dao Lord" on earth, which means the Lord of the Dao Court. After he ascended to heaven, although he left behind a legacy, the most outstanding of his descendants could only be called Heavenly Masters, and could no longer be revered as "Dao Lord".
Today, Lin Nan has opened another Taoist temple in Chechi country, and can be respected as the "Taoist Master".
Of course, the title of "Taoist Master" is only limited to the territory of Chechi, and not the Taoist Master of the world.
Even so, this is a remarkable achievement.
In the Taoism of Chechi Kingdom, his words are the golden rule.
However, as the Taoist master, Lin Nan currently lacks strong soldiers and generals. His strongest helpers are the three monster immortals: Tiger Power Immortal, Deer Power Immortal and Sheep Power Immortal.
He knew very well that if he wanted to make Chechi Daoting truly powerful, he had to recruit more disciples and enhance his strength.
"After inheriting the Taoist tradition, I will definitely recruit more disciples and strengthen the sect."
Lin Nan was secretly thinking about his next plan. He was determined to strengthen the strength and foundation of Chechi Dao Court. Only in this way could he hope to change the status order with Dongtu Dao Court.
At present, the Dongtu Taoist Court is still the "Da Dao Court" and occupies the majority of Taoist fortune.
The Chechi Dao Court founded by Lin Nan could only be considered a "small Dao Court" at best, with only a small amount of luck. But it was this situation that gave him room for development, just like the Chechi Kingdom itself was full of potential.
"With the blessing of some Taoist luck, some talented people with luck will definitely emerge in Chechi in the future." Lin Nan thought to himself, "I just need to guide them to practice, and they will naturally grow up and become the pillars of Chechi Taoist Court."
Just like Lu Dongbin, the reincarnation of the Huayang immortal, he was born with some luck.
As long as Lin Nan can bring him in to practice, the strength of Chechi Dao Sect will definitely be enhanced.
Lin Nan made some calculations in his mind and figured out that the time for Immortal Huayang to reincarnate would be about half a year later. He had enough time to wait and guide him into enlightenment.
“Even if I don’t take the initiative to guide him, with the Taoist luck he carries, he will be naturally inclined to the Tao and will come to seek the Tao on his own initiative.” Lin Nan understood this in his heart.
If he hadn't appeared, Huayang Zhenren would have probably become a contemporary "Taoist" after reincarnating as Lü Dongbin, because he carried a large part of the fortune of Taoism. The Quanzhen Chunyang School he founded has influenced countless generations of people.
Fortunately, the reincarnation of Huayang Immortal has landed in Chechi Country, and the luck has not leaked out. Lin Nan doesn't know whether this is the arrangement of Daozu or the luck of the opportunity, but in any case it is a good thing, which means that Chechi Country has such potential.
He gazed at the future of Chechi Kingdom, his heart full of expectations: "Now, we just have to wait for Chechi Kingdom to continue to grow and develop. One day it will surely become the center of humanity, replace the position of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and become the orthodoxy of humanity."
……
In the Sanqing Temple on Jiuji Mountain, the three great immortals, Tiger Power, Deer Power and Sheep Power, gathered together. They all looked excited and were very excited about the success of Lin Nan's trip. Lin Nan successfully established the Dao Court, and their status as the national masters of Chechi Kingdom also rose accordingly.
Even now, Lin Nan could use his identity as "Taoist Master Chechi" to grant them the talisman and directly have the three great immortals listed in the Taoist canon. This was tantamount to ascending to heaven in one step for them, something they had only dreamed of before.
The Jade Rabbit Fairy was not present at this time, because she had a grudge in her heart, so she ran to the country of Tianzhu further west to "take revenge". She has not appeared in Chechi in recent years.
"Fellow Daoist Lin Nan, when do you plan to pass on the Taoist tradition here and officially open the sect?" Immortal Huli couldn't help but ask Lin Nan.
Lin Nan had previously used his great magical powers to create this "Jiuji Mountain", which was considered to be the establishment of the mountain gate. However, because he had not yet passed on the Taoist tradition and had not recruited many disciples, it could not be considered the true opening of the mountain gate.
"After I have mastered the knowledge and created the Nine Extremes Sutra, I will open the gate to the mountain." Lin Nan had already made a plan in mind. His strength was enough to open the gate to the mountain to preach, but to pass on the Taoist tradition, he had to pass on his own "Tao".
Although Lin Nan had mastered many classic sutras from the modern era, and even some sutras that had never appeared in this world, he couldn't just use them directly. He needed to summarize what he had learned and integrate all his skills into one.
This was not difficult for Lin Nan, because he had mastered many classic scriptures from ancient times to the present. Even in this world, no Taoist priest could surpass him in terms of the completeness of scriptures. Lin Nan, who came from the modern times, also mastered many classic works from a later timeline.
He only needs to integrate these classics to create a scripture that belongs to the Jiuji lineage. "Now it depends on what kind of scripture I can create." The three immortals said, "Of course, when the scripture is completed, the three Taoist friends will be the first to read it."
Lin Nan looked at the three great immortals, and after a moment's silence, he said, "My three fellow Taoists, you have encountered opportunities one after another this time, and your cultivation has progressed rapidly. Now you are all on the right track in terms of alchemy. Why not take this opportunity to try to condense the golden elixir as soon as possible."
"In this Jiuji Mountain, I can protect the Taoists." As he spoke, Lin Nan took out some elixirs to help them. The Great Immortals Tiger Power, Deer Power and Sheep Power had obtained the secret of the elixir from Lin Nan a long time ago.
Of course, they chose to practice not the same golden elixir method as Lin Nan, but only the top-grade elixir method. Even so, once they mastered the top-grade elixir method, they could still become immortals, and they would achieve the path of celestial immortals. However, compared with the nine-extreme top-grade celestial immortals that Lin Nan practiced, they could not be compared. (End of this chapter)
