Chongming Xianzong

Chapter 134 Goodbye Shan Gong
When the Earth Master finished casting the spell, seeing that Fei Shuhe did not ask for more food, Sect Leader Kang, who had wanted to take his disciples for a meal, turned around and went back with a group of disciples who were still not satisfied.

When he reached the outside of Chongming Sect, he saw the Taoist priest in black shoes standing under the archway waiting for him.

Since Kang Dabao's wedding, the Taoist Hei Lu has not returned to Hemu Dao, and still stays here to teach the Chongming Sect. It goes without saying how profound the teachings of foundation-building cultivation are to the Chongming Sect's Qigong practitioners.

Kang Dabao and his fellow disciples had not received instruction from their master for many years, so this was like a long-awaited rain.

Thanks to this, Pei Yi’s bottleneck of six levels of Qi training that had plagued him for many years has been broken, and he is now in seclusion in the sect.

I think that when he comes out of seclusion, there will be another relatively rare late-stage cultivator in Chongming Sect.

If the moment when the Black-Shoe Taoist blocked the knife of the Yue family assassin for him only eased the resentment in Kang Dabao's heart a little.

After that, he had provided the bride price, argued with Fernando after the bride disappeared, had a big fight with him, and devoted himself to teaching Chongming's disciples.

At this time, although Master Kang still could not treat his master's overly outstanding brother as his master had requested before his death, "treating him like a father", he could be said to have completely untied the knot in his heart and regarded Taoist Heilu as a very close elder to whom he could open up to without worry.

Not long ago, he even had the courage to ask Taoist Heilu why he was fighting with his own master, who was both his teacher and friend.

However, after hearing this, Taoist Heilu's reaction was the same as the old master's. He just shook his head and did not answer.

Compared to the old headmaster, the Black Shoe Taoist mentioned one more thing at the end of their conversation, "After you have established your foundation, I may be able to tell you."

"Uncle Master, what do you want me to do?" Taoist Heilu was actually waiting under the archway. Kang Dabao naturally did not dare to neglect him and walked quickly to Taoist Heilu. However, the latter left everyone else behind and took Kang Dabao aside.

"Shang Gong wants to see you." When mentioning Yin Shang Gong, even the Taoist Hei Lu's tone was filled with undisguised respect.

Kang Dabao was even more shocked and hurriedly followed the Taoist Heilu to a secluded cliff nearby where few people had been.

A short man in linen clothes, straw sandals, hunched over, and wearing a straw hat made of dead leaves, was sitting cross-legged here.

Although this monkey-like elder was only a minor Qigong practitioner, his every breath seemed to be full of truth, causing those around him to hold their breath.

Yin Shangong meditated for a while, and only opened his eyes when the two men came closer.

"Greetings, Lord Shan." Even though Taoist Heilu has already achieved foundation building, his respect for Lord Yin Shan, the legendary senior from Yunjiaozhou, remains the same, and he now pays respects to him as a junior.

“In the past, I thought that you had the same talent as He kid. You didn’t make much progress after listening to my lectures several times. I thought it would be difficult for you to establish a foundation in this lifetime. I never thought that you could actually achieve the golden leaf. It’s amazing. Even many of the experienced disciples of Shannan Dao may not be able to produce one in several decades. You must have practiced hard and you must be lucky.” Yin Shangong praised the Taoist Heilius with a hint of joy in his eyes.

During his nearly 200 years of cultivation, he had spent most of his time supporting younger generations. Seeing that Taoist Heilu had achieved such success, he felt joy from the bottom of his heart.

"I will always remember the kindness of Mr. Shan's teaching." Taoist Heilu bowed sincerely. Although he was from a sect, his master was not very capable and his fellow disciples were all mediocre.

Although he is a disciple of a sect, he lacks resources and his Taoism is incomplete. In fact, he is more like a casual cultivator. The difficulties he faces in seeking the Tao are even more difficult than those of Kang Dabao and Yuan Jin.

When he was young, the Taoist Heilu was able to receive selfless teachings from Yin Shangong. This kindness was invaluable on his thorny path of cultivation and he kept it in mind.

Yin Shangong was always elusive. Even during the years when he taught Qin Sufu, his last disciple, he mostly practiced in seclusion in the mountains, and would only come to Qin Sufu to teach him for a few months every few years. "No need to thank me. Everyone has their own fate in cultivation. This is your own destiny. When you have spare time, just help the younger generation, just like today." Yin Shangong shook his head and nodded.

Guiding the younger generation in their cultivation without asking for anything in return, Lord Yin Shangong had done countless things in Yunjiao Prefecture.

Some of the younger generations he taught died halfway, such as Kang Dabao's master, Master He; some went on to achieve greater success, including several who had established their foundation, and now there is a Taoist priest named Black Shoes who has a promising future.

But in Yin Shangong's eyes, they are all the same.

For him, whose path to immortality was cut off, the best comfort for him was to see his descendants grow up and become pious monks who protected mortals and passed on the immortal path, just like he did in the past.

According to the comments of a certain foundation-building cultivator, this is a rare pure Taoist and true cultivator.

Pingrong County was one of the central battlefields of the Shannan Rebellion. It did not decline as badly as the cultivation world in neighboring Jin County. This was of course due to the teaching of Yin Shangong to the younger generations.

"Master Kang." Yin Shangong turned his gaze to Kang Dabao.

"I don't deserve to be called Shan Gong. I'm here." Kang Dabao lowered his head even lower.

"You're not bad either." Yin Shangong nodded, without saying anything more, he took out a cube of fluorite that was completely green and threw it to him.

"Is this the Yi Mu Qing Liu Heart?" Even though he was an elder in person, Kang Dabao couldn't help but exclaim.

This is because although the Yimu Green Willow Heart is not as good as the Foundation Establishment Pill and the second-rate Liuhe Zhengyang Dates, it is also an extremely precious treasure, enough to double the probability of ordinary people building a foundation.

"The kid Qin has already established his foundation. The things I found from the Shishan Sect before are of no use to him, so he asked me to give them to you as a wedding gift." Yin Shangong said softly.

"Thank you, Mr. Shan, and thank you, Brother Qin. I wonder what level of foundation building Brother Qin has achieved?" Kang Dabao had nothing to be embarrassed about. Since Qin Sufu was willing to give it, only a fool would refuse it.

"He kid saved his life back then, this is what he should do, just remember it." Yin Shangong did not answer, and continued: "The Immortal Dynasty's entry into Yunjiaozhou may be a hindrance to the big sects, but it may be an opportunity for small families like you."

At this point, Yin Shangong paused for a moment before saying, "The young man Qin has listened to me and has been appointed to the court of Yunjiao Prefecture. He is favored by the Earl of Nan'an, and unless something serious happens, he will not return to Pingrong in the future.

Up to now, the Cultivator Association has been like chicken ribs to him, so he picked up two trusted people to take care of it, but he is still worried about the Qin family's close relatives, so he wants you to take better care of them."

"I will take good care of you, kid." Kang Dabao replied in a deep voice.

"What He wanted most back then was to revive his family someday. You should do a good job for him." Yin Shangong gave some more instructions and left in a graceful manner.
