The Lord of the Laws of Heaven

Chapter 215 Visualization Diagram

Arrived at Yulong Mountain.

The Jade Dragon Mountain stands majestically, covered in silver, and with the clouds, it really looks like a fairy mountain.

There were many pilgrims around, walking towards the mountain.

Xiao Shi said that Xiao Jun led him directly to an empty room in the Yujing Temple of Fang Xiandao. Some pilgrims would also rent a room there.

After saying that, Xiao Shi left and said goodbye, saying that he wanted to report to the sect leader.

……

However, Xiao Shi, led by two boys in black Taoist robes, went directly to pay his respects to the Taoist priest Xiao Anran, who had a golden and purple complexion.

The report included a complete account of Xiao Jun's name, situation and family background.

"Sixteen years old? A man of great integrity, yet possessing painting skills comparable to Qian Daozi..." Xiao pondered dejectedly, then heard the information Xiao Shi shared from below: "He comes from an average family, and his spirit and body are one?"

"I see. I thought it was the reincarnation of some ghost immortal. He's unknown yet he possesses the painting skills of a painting saint. I thought it might be the reincarnation of a ghost immortal, but now it seems I was overthinking it."

This is because all the reincarnated ghost immortals are either wealthy nobles or princes and grandchildren of the emperor. It is absolutely impossible for a ghost immortal to enter an ordinary family.

The reason is very simple. If the ghost immortal wants to go further, he must have the support of resources. Only with the support of a large amount of resources can the ghost immortal be qualified to go further.

I also heard that Xiao Jun's body did not have any of the condensed energy and blood of a warrior, but was born in a state of unity of body and soul, so it was even more impossible for him to be the reincarnation of a ghost immortal.

He has a photographic memory, a righteous spirit, a unity of body and soul, and extraordinary painting skills.

If these are the accumulation of ghost immortals, then it is not scary. However, if such a person appears directly and is born like this, then it is scary.

Xiao pondered for a moment. He had originally thought it might just be a wild ghost immortal. If he could find it, he could borrow the power of Fang Xiandao to either recruit it or surround and kill it. He wanted to see if he could obtain any classic secrets from a wild ghost immortal.

Of course, for a ghost immortal like Qian Daozi, the Fangxian Dao still focuses on recruiting. A highly skilled artist can create powerful visualization diagrams, which could become the foundation of a Taoist technique. If one can incorporate a variety of artistic conceptions into a powerful visualization diagram, then for a Taoist school, it means an increase in its foundation.

Many visualization diagrams of Taoist traditions are not static. Many of them are visualized and comprehended by generations of people, which continuously sublimate the visualization diagrams of generations and eventually lead to the realization of the great Dao.

Just like martial arts, it is possible for martial arts schools to be passed down from generation to generation and improved from generation to generation. It is very likely that it will develop from an ordinary school to become a sect, and then become a martial arts holy land!
"If this boy is naturally self-taught and quickly masters such painting skills, he could very well catch up to Qian Daozi, or even surpass him." Xiao Anran began to ponder deeply, "Qian Daozi wants to comprehend the images of the ancestors of all the Taoist sects in the world, integrating all the principles of the ancestors into a visual diagram, hoping to reach the level of the visualization diagram of the 'Past Amitabha Sutra'..."

"Indeed, the power of so-called Taoist techniques lies in their principles, and visualizations integrate vast principles. A good visualization is always a matter of chance. The most important thing about the "Past Amitabha Sutra" is that it was created by a master painter, integrating countless Buddhist principles into the visualization."
There are various Taoist arts in the world, and most of the methods of practicing them are common, such as the view of hell, the view of the nine deaths, the view of the jade maiden... Everyone knows these visualizations to a greater or lesser extent, and the real core thing is the visualization diagram that carries the truth.

Xiao Anran knew that Xiao Jun was just an ordinary person, not a ghost immortal, so he had the idea of using him. Of course, he also wanted to test his quality.

"Xiao Shi, you did a great job." After saying that, a flying jade bottle suddenly appeared from the distance. The jade bottle was directly held in Xiao Anran's hand, and then thrown directly to Xiao Shi in front of him.

"This is a brain-tonifying and calming pill. I spent ten days and ten nights refining it. Once you take it, it will nourish your mind and allow you to practice Taoism with divine assistance within three months."

"Thank you, Sect Master."

After he finished speaking, Xiao Shi in front of him immediately grasped the jade bottle tightly in his hand and placed it in his arms happily.

"Now, Xiao Shi, call that man over here. And you two, bring a table and chairs, and prepare pens, inkstones, and inkstones. Use the finest kind!" Xiao Anran ordered directly, "I need to test him."

"Hiss, Sect Master, are you planning to let him come directly to the Great Pill Palace?" Xiao Shi was a little surprised and took a breath. Then he turned to look at the extremely lifelike image of the Taoist Master in the palace, which looked like the creation of the world. "Isn't this kind of Pill Palace off-limits to outsiders?"

You know, I am a member of the same clan as Sect Leader Xiao Anran. Although the relationship is a bit distant, I am still one of Xiao Anran's closest subordinates!
Even he could not carefully pay homage to the image of Yuanyang Daozun of Fangxiandao. He could only take a few glances at it occasionally when he came to do business. Even taking a few glances would be of great help to his spiritual practice!

Xiao Anran turned around, looked at Daozu Xiang and said, "He is just an ordinary person with a unified body and soul. Perhaps he is a martial arts genius. Just let him see this Daozu Xiang."

"Our Fangxian Dao has been passed down from generation to generation. The statue of Yuanyang Daozun is actually under constant repair. It is the condensation of the superb cultivation and wisdom of each generation of sect masters. However, after all, it has been passed down from generation to generation. The inheritance of our Fangxian Dao is getting further and further away from the Yangshen Tianxian Dao."

"In ancient times, Taoism was not flourishing, and many Yang Gods emerged. In the Middle Ages, various schools of thought appeared, and a large number of creators emerged one after another. In recent times, even a Meng Shenji could do evil! Meng Shenji is the descendant of the Supreme Dao, the creator and the best master in the world, but in ancient and medieval times, he was nothing!"

"As time progresses, Taoist techniques become increasingly complex, but the level of practitioners is declining... This is due to the secular imperial power, but also to the fact that the inheritance of the ancestors' true meaning is constantly being worn away."

"If this boy is truly capable of painting with extraordinary skills and talent, then I will train him. After all, it doesn't cost much to train a secular painter."

Even the Fangxian Dao had their own arrogance. No matter how powerful a person's painting skills were, they were still just ordinary people. Even if this ordinary person could carve out a visualization diagram that was useful to ghosts and immortals, they were still ordinary people.

In fact, when Xiao Shi came in, Xiao Anran had already investigated and found that it was the true level of natural unity of body and soul. So naturally, he was very relieved.

"The more powerful the artistic conception that is incorporated into Yuanyang Daozun's visualization method, the stronger it will become." Xiao Anran's mind began to turn: "If this boy's method is really capable of painting the image of the Taoist Ancestor, then the artistic conception of the numerous classics that our immortal sect has collected over the years can also be integrated into the image of Yuanyang Daozun's Taoist Ancestor."

This is an extremely boring attempt, but also an expectation.

The main reason was that Xiao Jun couldn't possibly know Taoism, and also because he was too young. It was precisely because he was too young that there were more possibilities.
