Pure Yang!

Chapter 270 The root of the downfall of Nanzhang! Goodbye Qi Delong Dongqiang

Early in the morning, Yujing South Suburb Airport.

A silver-white plane took off into the sky like a giant bird and gradually flew into the clouds.

Zhang Fan sat in a window seat, getting farther and farther away from the ground, and couldn't help but sigh at the power of technology.

Even though he has now entered the realm of great bodhisattva, he can only leave his soul and ascend to heaven. As for his physical body, he still cannot achieve the so-called so-called soaring flight.

"Practice, practice. What kind of realm do you think can allow one to fly into the sky and hide in the ground?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but say.

The true path of cultivation is completely different from what is said in the legend.

“The Taoist sect has thousands of teachings to pass down. An elder once said clearly that the troubles in this world are nothing but a combination of the four elements. Even this body is just a boat to cross the sea. It must be abandoned once we reach the other side.” Bai Yujing said calmly.

Because of this, many people who practiced alchemy in the past believed that there was no need to cultivate the physical body, as in the end it would be nothing more than an empty dream.

Since it is just an empty dream, no matter how much you practice, it is impossible to be like the immortals in the legend, riding on the clouds and roaming freely between heaven and earth.

"The Quanzhen Taoist school advocates the dual cultivation of sex and life. When one reaches a certain level, this physical body will have the means of an immortal, and riding on clouds and mist will be no problem." Bai Yujing said in a serious tone.

There are tens of thousands of sects in Taoism, but the most famous and widely spread ones are Quanzhen and Zhengyi.

Longhu Mountain is the ancestral temple of Zhengyi Sect.

Mount Zhongnan is the ancestral home of Quanzhen Buddhism.

The Quanzhen school emphasizes the dual cultivation of nature and life. Although it is divided into the Southern School and the Northern School, the only difference is whether "nature first, then life" or "life first, then nature".

It is also because of this that Quanzhen Taoism has produced many great people throughout history, such as Wang Zu Wang Chongyang, Lu Zu Lu Chunyang, Qiu Zu Qiu Chuji and so on.

"Mt. Zhongnan, Quanzhen Sect..." Zhang Fan looked out the window thoughtfully.

"Don't tell me that [Taisui Village] is in Chang'an. It's in the Zhongnan Mountains."

Mount Zhongnan is one of the ten famous Taoist mountains in the world. It has a long history and rich cultural heritage. If we trace its roots, its reputation was even higher than that of Mount Longhu and Mount Zhenwu at certain times.

Zhang Daoling, the ancestor of the Zhang family, once practiced here.

Lu Zu also attained enlightenment in Mount Zhongnan.

Even when Laozi was traveling west through Hangu Pass, Yin Xi built a tower with grass in Mount Zhongnan and waited for Laozi to arrive there, and then taught him the 5,000-word Tao Te Ching.

Because of this, Mount Zhongnan has a very high status in Taoism and is even known as "the most blessed place in the world."

Zhang Fan didn’t believe that such an important place as Wuwei Sect would be hidden right under the nose of Zhongnan Mountain.

"What's so strange?" Bai Yujing said lightly.

"You have been studying Taoism for a long time. You should know that the dragon veins of China start from Kunlun Mountain. There are three big dragons in total. Chang'an is the location of the dragon cave of the [Central Dragon]. Could it be that such a Feng Shui treasure land is occupied by Zhongnan Mountain alone?"

Since ancient times, Kunlun Mountain has been known as the ancestral dragon vein of China. From its origin, three big dragons have been derived, namely the North Dragon, the Middle Dragon and the South Dragon.

Among them, the [Central Dragon] runs eastward from Kunlun Mountain, passing through Qinling Mountains, Daba Mountains, Dabie Mountains, and finally extends to Mount Tai.

Chang'an is the location of the dragon's lair of the [Central Dragon]. It has all four symbols and a mighty royal aura. It is the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties, and its heritage is even more unfathomable than that of Yujing City.

After all, although Yujing City is also known as the ancient capital of six dynasties, all of them were short-lived dynasties. Even though the Ming Dynasty established its capital here, it was overthrown by his own uncle when it came to Jianwen, and later the capital was moved to Shangjing.

"A place like Taisui Village is hidden right under the nose of Mount Zhongnan, how come it has not been discovered for so many years?" Zhang Fan showed a strange look.

"You underestimate Wuwei Sect." Bai Yujing smiled meaningfully.

"The Dao Sect and the Wuwei Sect have been fighting for two thousand years. They have destroyed mountains and temples nine times but have failed to destroy the Wuwei Sect. If it were so easy to find, the Wuwei Sect would have closed down long ago."

After hearing this, Zhang Fan thought for a moment and nodded. This made sense.

"Close your eyes and rest for a while. It will take a while to get to Chang'an." Bai Yujing said softly, "Our journey ahead is uncertain. It's hard to predict whether it will be good or bad."

"Aunt Bai, I want to ask you something."

At this moment, Zhang Fan changed the subject and spoke suddenly.

"What's the matter?" Bai Yujing had already put on a blindfold.

"My mother's business."

As soon as Zhang Fan finished speaking, Bai Yujing's soft body visibly tensed up a little.

"The rebellion of the Thirteen Zodiac Signs was led by [Chen Long]. Where did he come from?" Zhang Fan asked in a deep voice.

Before, he was in a deep sleep, and Zhang Lingzong told him that his mother died in a car accident ten years ago. Now he woke up and knew that it was complete nonsense.

"Well... you should know that even if they are all the same zodiac signs, it is difficult for them to know each other well, especially their real-life identities. That is equivalent to handing your life over to the other party, so how could it be easily exposed?" Bai Yujing shook his head.

"Others may not know, but you definitely know it." Zhang Fan asked.

Bai Yujing is not only a snake, but also one of the five great demons under Li Linglong's command.

As a person of the previous generation, Li Linglong must know everything about the other twelve zodiac signs.

"Alas, you shouldn't ask me about this." Bai Yujing sighed.

"What? Is there something you can't say?" Zhang Fan raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion.

"This is your family affair. I can't say much. You can ask your...your father later." Bai Yujing shook his head.

"What are you talking about? What do you mean by our family affairs? I can't even know the details of my enemy?" Zhang Fan's expression became more and more weird.

The more Bai Yujing tried to cover up the issue, the more doubts he had in his heart.

"I can only tell you that it was your father who personally recommended Chen Long for the position." Bai Yujing said in a serious tone.

"What?" Zhang Fan's eyes darkened slightly. "Are you saying that my dad also knew Chen Long, and that he was the reason why he became one of the thirteen zodiac animals?"

"That's what I mean." Bai Yujing whispered.

"So I said, this is your family affair, and your father is more suitable to tell you than me."

"To be honest, although there are not many people left in your Nan Zhang lineage, it will take three days and three nights to sort out your family's affairs. It's impossible to sort them out."

"..."

Zhang Fan wanted to ask more, but he saw that Bai Yujing's breathing became long and slow, and he seemed to have fallen asleep.

"Chenlong..."

Zhang Fan murmured softly, Bai Yujing's words just echoing in his mind.

……

Two hours later, the plane arrived at Chang'an International Airport.

Bai Yujing had already arranged a car. The two of them left the airport, got in the car, and came to a villa in the suburbs of Chang'an.

This is Bai Yujing's private property.

"The environment here is nice, you can stay here first." Bai Yujing instructed.

"I'll stay here first? What about you?" Zhang Fan asked in surprise.

"I need to find out the situation first... You should know that I haven't been back to Taisui Village for ten years. Even if I'm a zodiac sign, it's not a place that I can just casually enter." Bai Yujing said in a serious tone.

"Don't tell me you can't find the way." Zhang Fan said with a strange expression.

"Do you think that Taisui Village is just a place marked on a map, and you can find it by following the map?" Bai Yujing glanced at him and said lightly.

"If it was so easy to find, it would have been searched eight times in Zhongnan Mountain."

"Even though you are one of the thirteen zodiac signs, it's not possible?" Zhang Fan said in a deep voice.

"There is a special way, but it is difficult to find it actively. Otherwise... if there is a Taoist spy among the thirteen zodiac signs, wouldn't we have to wipe out the whole thing?" Bai Yujing said meaningfully.

"Has it happened before?" Zhang Fan's heart moved and he asked subconsciously.

"Of course there was. You underestimated the Wuwei Sect and the Dao Sect."

Bai Yujing said softly, "The Wuwei Sect and the Dao Sect have been dealing with each other for so many years, and both sides know each other very well. Conventional methods are completely useless."

"There were once people in the Dao sect who were ranked among the thirteen zodiac animals and held high positions of power." "There were even... experts who became human zodiac animals."

"Human figure!?"

Zhang Fan was moved when he heard this. He suddenly remembered the memory he had seen in the Three Corpses Yuandan. The young Three Corpses Taoist once invited the child Chu Chaoran to be the person who would help him ascend to the position of the sect leader.

"The first leader of Wuwei Sect had foresight. He wanted to ensure that no matter who betrayed the sect, it would not affect the inheritance of the sect's teachings." Bai Yujing said in a deep voice.

Even if it was any one of the thirteen zodiac signs, or the master of the three palaces, or even the deputy master of the Wuwei Sect...

Even if all these people betrayed Wuwei Sect, there will still be a ray of incense that will never go out, and the legacy passed down from generation to generation will always shine brightly over the years.

This is also the reason why the Wuwei Sect has not been completely destroyed despite the nine attacks on mountains and temples. Even if they are defeated, there will always be a day when they will rise again.

unless……

"Unless what?"

"Unless there is someone in the Taoist sect who can sit on the position of the leader of the Wuwei Sect!" Bai Yujing said in a deep voice.

"Becoming the leader of Wuwei Sect? That's too difficult." Zhang Fan couldn't help but sigh.

Not to mention the people from the Taoist sect, even the disciples within the Wuwei sect would find it extremely difficult to take the position of the sect leader. Otherwise, the Wuwei sect would not have been leaderless for sixty years after the death of Taoist Sanshi.

The possibility is almost zero.

"Although there is not any possibility at all, there are people who are trying." Bai Yujing said quietly.

"Is there really a fool who would do this? Who is it?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask.

In his opinion, sitting on the throne of the leader of Wuwei Sect is no less difficult than cultivating to the Pure Yang Wuji realm, not to mention that he is an outsider. This is simply climbing to the sky. He knows it is impossible but still does it. Is there really such a fool in the world?

"Your dad!" Bai Yujing looked at Zhang Fan dimly and blurted out.

"..."

Zhang Fan remained silent.

When Li Linglong became a human being, it was to protect Zhang Lingzong and help him take the throne of the leader of Wuwei Sect.

"Your father is not an ordinary person, what a pity..."

"He has too many thoughts. Once he had this thought, he sowed the seeds of destruction for the Nan Zhang lineage." Bai Yujing sighed softly.

"What do you mean?" Zhang Fan raised his eyebrows, showing a look of surprise.

"Zhang Fan, don't think that your life is hard. At least you had your parents to protect you before you were twelve, and your father to stand in front of you after you were twelve..." Bai Yujing sighed.

"But your father had a much harder life than you. He suffered a great change when he was young. All his relatives died, his bloodline was broken, and he wandered in a foreign land from then on. He almost died and survived. He suffered more killings than you have walked..."

"How many hardships and disasters did you go through to acquire this ability?" Bai Yujing sighed.

She had known Zhang Lingzong since he was young, and had some understanding of this man.

After escaping nine fatal dangers and surviving great disasters, he became the most vicious King of the Daling Sect in the world.

"Compared to your father, you are still too immature. Many people are sharing the burden for you." Bai Yujing's every word was powerful and deafening.

"Zhang Fan, you are indeed special, but you are not special enough... You don't have much time left."

As he spoke, Bai Yujing slowly stood up.

"Aunt Bai, I have a question for you." Zhang Fan suddenly said.

"You said."

"Did you come to me this time just because Lin Jianyue asked you for help?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Bai Yujing's eyebrows slightly frowned, and a barely perceptible light flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"of course."

Bai Yujing spoke softly, then turned around and was about to leave.

"How long will it take you to come back?" Zhang Fan caught up and asked.

"It shouldn't take a few days."

"I'm just going to wait here?" Zhang Fan couldn't help but say.

He didn't want to waste time staying in this villa.

"Don't be anxious. This is also a way for you to temper your mind." Bai Yujing chuckled.

"If you are really bored, you can go out and have some fun, visit the Tang Dynasty City That Never Sleeps, see the Terracotta Warriors, and visit the Huaqing Hot Spring..." Bai Yujing introduced.

"Chang'an is a tourist destination with many 5A-level scenic spots!"

"Do you think I'm here for sightseeing?"

Zhang Fan's eyes widened. Before he could finish speaking, Bai Yujing had already walked out of the yard, got into the car, the engine roared, and then he sped away.

"You come back soon!"

Zhang Fan waved and called out loudly from behind until he could no longer see the back of the car.

"Dad..."

Zhang Fan murmured softly, Bai Yujing's words just echoing in his mind.

Perhaps all children are the same. They always wait until their parents get old before they remember to try to understand them, care about them, and get close to them.

"Once I understand everything here, I will come to you." Zhang Fan clenched his hands tightly.

He knew that Zhang Lingzong had been hiding in Ailao Mountain, which was actually a forbidden place. But at this moment, he had an urge to rush over, even if it was a dangerous place.

"Let's go back and wait for news." Zhang Fan sighed, gathered the mixed emotions in his heart, turned around and returned to the villa.

He took out a piece of leather from his pocket and blew a breath of true yang into it, and Zhang Beizang was formed.

"Protect me."

Zhang Fan gave some instructions, then sat cross-legged in the living room and began to cultivate his soul.

The moon rises and sets until evening.

Zhang Fan slowly opened his eyes and heard a rustling sound outside the villa door.

"Is there anyone here!?" Zhang Fan's ears moved slightly, and a light knock on the door sounded in the quiet moonlit night.

"Who?"

Zhang Fan stood up, walked to the yard, and asked through the door. He could feel that the man outside the door had a long and lingering breath, and his body was full of true yang. He must have practiced the authentic Taoist methods.

"Dong dong dong..."

There was another knock on the door. Zhang Fan hesitated for a moment, then opened the door and saw a familiar face.

"Qi Delong!?" Zhang Fan was stunned for a moment and blurted out.

"I am Qi Dongqiang now, and my brother's soul is asleep."

The heirs of Laojun Mountain, Qi Delong and Qi Dongqiang, are two brothers from the same mother, but before one of their bodies was born, the other was absorbed, so the two souls share one body.

Such anomaly is unique in Taoism.

After the battle at the Prison Immortal Temple that day, the two brothers were taken away by Zhao Jiexuan.

Zhang Fan didn't expect that he would meet this...the heir of Laojun Mountain again here.

"Why are you here!?"

"Brother Zhao asked us to come find you." Qi Dongqiang grinned.

"Zhao Jiexuan!?"
