I am devoted to the Tao

Chapter 17: More fathers out of thin air?
Jiangchuan's residence is located halfway up the mountain behind the Monk Temple.

The two-story attic is quiet and elegant. The huge pomegranate tree in the yard is full of fruits, adding a sense of vitality to the entire courtyard.

"Junior brother, am I dreaming? This house is more than ten times better than our previous cramped little house!"

Jinghui ran into the attic excitedly and kept looking around.

Jiang Chuan's face was also full of smiles.

"If this were on Earth, I'd be considered a homeowner!"

Thinking of this, Jiangchuan became even more grateful to Elder Jingyun.

Although all the monks who entered the Martial Monk Academy were reallocated to new residences, only Jiangchuan and Jinghui were assigned to the second-floor attic.

In addition to the fact that he ranked first in the assessment, it was naturally also because of the care of Elder Jingyun.

After briefly cleaning the attic, Jiang Chuan used the excuse of taking a rest, closed the door, sat on the bed, and prepared to start the simulation.

[Ding! Simulation begins. Now randomly matching the host with a dating simulation partner.]

[Ding! Match successful.]

[The romantic partner for this simulated match is Lu Chenling of the Seven Killing Demon Sect.]

"Lu Chenling? This name seems familiar."

Jiang Chuan's expression changed slightly: "This time, I was matched with the Seven Killing Witches."

In his previous simulation, he and Ji Xinyu were searching for the Dragon Transformation Cave on Chisha Island, and heard the cultivators talk about Lu Chenling.

Lu Chenling is the first among the younger generation of the Seven Killing Demon Sect, so she is called the Seven Killing Witch.

"Damn love simulator! Can't you match someone with someone normal? Lu Chenling is obviously a crazier woman than Ji Xinyu. This is going to be difficult."

[You began to comprehend the Treasure Mountain Seal in seclusion. After three months, you initially mastered the Treasure Mountain Seal and simultaneously broke through to the eighth level of the Second Realm.]

The Jiuyuan Dynasty, led by the Jiuyuan Saint Emperor, visited the Bodhi Temple. Having just emerged from seclusion, you were immediately assigned to entertain Li Yunwen, the 28th Prince of the Jiuyuan Dynasty.

[The Jiuyuan Dynasty has a total of 32 princes and 24 princesses, all of whom have the potential to inherit the throne.]

Twenty-eighth Prince Li Yunwen, upon learning that you are highly regarded by Elder Jingyun and have achieved first place in the Martial Monk Academy assessment, believes you have a strong chance of entering the Arhat Academy in the future.

[Therefore, I have been trying to get closer to you. Not only have I treated you like a brother, I have also given you many treasures and elixirs.]

"Li Yunwen asked me to call him Big Brother, so what's my relationship with the Nine Abyss Saint Emperor? I just got a new father out of nowhere?"

Jiang Chuan thought of Li Yunwen, whom he treated like a brother, and his eyes twitched slightly.

Jiang Chuan is very opposed to the idea of ​​recognizing his father.

but
Turning his head to look at the yellow gourd half a person's height on his back, Jiang Chuan grinned.

"However, if you give me a few thousand more Duize Lingsha, I might consider recognizing you as my father."

[You obtained many treasures and elixirs from Li Yunwen, which made some of his subordinates jealous.]

[One of the disciples of the Maha Palace, Qu Changhe, even challenged you to a fight.]

Considering the disparity in power between the two parties, you, adhering to the principle of a hero not taking a loss in the face of adversity, refused on the spot.

"You're at the ninth level of the Third Realm, ten small realms below me, yet you're still trying to challenge me to a fight. Qu, you're really shameless!"

Jiang Chuan touched his chin and smiled wickedly: "Fortunately, I am thicker-skinned than you."

[You immediately returned to the Martial Monk Academy and found seven or eight fellow apprentices.]

[I complained to them about Qu Changhe's tyranny and offered them some medicinal pills, begging them to help.]

[Finally, on a dark and windy night, you brought along seven or eight other brothers from the Martial Monk Academy and beat up Qu Changhe.]

Qu Changhe was beaten black and blue, with broken bones all over his body. If it weren't for the fact that killing someone in the temple was not a good idea, this day next year would be the anniversary of Qu Changhe's death.

[Beating up Qu Changhe will make you feel better.]

Li Yunwen quickly discovered the beaten Qu Changhe. As you'd expected, he didn't make a big fuss about it. Instead, after guessing it was most likely you, he gifted you a low-grade jade knife.

[You know Li Yunwen is worried that this matter will become a big deal and reach the ears of the Nine Abyss Saint Emperor, leaving the impression that he is incompetent. Therefore, he is trying to make a big deal out of a small matter.]

【So, you gladly accepted the Jade Knife.】

[Another half month later, Li Yunwen left with the Nine Abyss Saint Emperor.]

[One month later, you successfully broke through to the ninth level of the second realm.]

[With the help of the elixir Li Yunwen gave you, you immediately broke through to the third level of soul refinement, your soul transformed into a Yin spirit, and condensed your divine consciousness.]

[Then you went to the Foreign Affairs Hall and accepted a mission to hunt underground demons in the Southern Region, and then prepared to set off to the Southern Region to find Lu Chenling.]

[After learning that you were planning to go to the Southern Region, Elder Jingyun approached you.]

"Due to the events of the Jiuyuan Dynasty, the Maha Palace and our three Buddhist and Taoist sects started a fight."

Elder Jingyun spoke slowly: "You have just broken through the third realm and your strength is insufficient. It is not appropriate for you to go out."

Jiang Chuan clasped his hands together and said, "Amitabha! Elder Jingyun, as the saying goes, if jade is not polished, it will not become a useful object. I cannot stay under your protection for the rest of my life."

Elder Jingyun slapped Jiang Chuan on the shiny head, knocking him to the ground.

"You kid, do you think I'm discussing this with you?"

Jiang Chuan lay on the ground, looking at the blue sky, only to feel the sky shaking constantly.

"Elder Jingyun."

"Ok?"

"Next time, next time, can we talk it out peacefully instead of using violence?"

Elder Jingyun looked down at the monk shoes on his feet.

"Okay, next time I talk and you don't listen, I won't use my hands, but my feet."

Jiangchuan: "."

How is this different from just taking action?
Or, is it more convenient for you to kick me farther away so that you can out of sight and out of mind?

[Due to Elder Jingyun's tyranny, you are forced to remain in the Monk's Court.]

[In addition to practicing the Dark Sky Devouring Universe Sutra, you will use all your energy to practice the Treasure Mountain Seal.]

According to legend, there is a Buddha in the Buddhist world named Many Treasures Tathagata King Buddha.

The Buddha of Many Treasures possesses tens of thousands of magical treasures of infinite power. Treasure Mountain is where the Buddha of Many Treasures keeps these magical treasures.

The Treasure Mountain Seal is a great power of Buddhism. Based on the ten thousand magical treasures of the Tathagata King Buddha and the creation of the Treasure Mountain, if cultivated to the extreme, it is said that one can borrow the power of the ten thousand magical treasures of the Tathagata King Buddha.

[You comprehend the Treasure Mountain Seal, and your understanding of it becomes increasingly profound.]

【In a trance, you seem to have come to another world. 】

"Where is this place?!"

Jiang Chuan looked at the scene in front of him with a dazed expression.

The golden peaks pierce the sky, like the pillars of heaven in mythology and legends, rising from the sky to the earth.

The majestic momentum is like a god standing between heaven and earth, which makes people feel awe.

The silver waterfall cascades down from the clouds, like a silver dragon falling from the sky into a lake as clear as sapphire, rumbling.

Lush green Bodhi trees are rooted on the mountain peaks, and magical animals such as monkeys and white deer roam among them.

At this moment, Jiang Chuan felt as if he had come to the beautiful fairyland in mythology.
