Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 320 Mountain and River Talisman

Within a thousand miles ahead, countless mountains and islands float in the air, like stars, with amazing spiritual charm. The pavilions and towers on them are shrouded in clouds and mist, half-hidden, and it really looks like a fairy palace.

Even more mysterious is that the myriad peaks and islands are all surrounded by a long, slowly flowing river that runs from east to west. Like the river itself, it is also suspended in the air, shimmering in the sunlight, a truly delightful sight...

The more Chen Mu looked, the more amazed he felt. In the past three months, he had seen many beautiful mountains and rivers, but this was the first time he had seen such a fairy-like scene.

After a while, he descended into the distance and arrived at the reception desk of Fushan Changhe.

"Where are you from, fellow Daoist? What brings you here?"

On a small floating island, two white-robed disciples on duty stood up and stepped forward.

Judging from their cultivation, they are all at the eleventh level of Qi Condensation or above. If they were placed in Shuiyun Gorge, they would surely be practicing hard and planning to build their foundation. But here, they are still required to complete their guard duties.

"Chen Mu of Zhao State is looking for Fellow Daoist Xu Jingyang."

The disciples of Fushan Changhe were neither humble nor arrogant, and Chen Mu was also calm and spoke slowly.

"Senior Brother Xu?"

Unexpectedly, the two men let out a light exclamation, and then seemed to remember something, and looked around at Chen Mu curiously.

"Hmm?" Chen Mu's heart moved, and the momentum of building the foundation was slightly revealed.

The disciple on duty turned pale immediately, realizing that he had violated the taboo of the world of immortal cultivation. He hurriedly bowed and said:
"Don't blame me, Senior. It was us two who were reckless..."

Chen Mu waved his hand and didn't take it to heart, but the reactions of the two of them just now made him a little confused and unable to see clearly.

"Senior Chen, please wait a moment. I will pass the message to Senior Brother Xu!"

One of the disciples on duty turned around and left, while the other led Chen Mu into the pavilion and treated him to hot tea.

Not long after, a beam of light came hurriedly and descended from the clouds. It was none other than Xu Jingyang, who had not been seen for three months.

However, he was now wearing a Taoist robe with a white base and aqua blue embroidery that surrounded it like a long river, which looked much better than before.

"Hahahaha...Fellow Daoist Chen, you're here!"

The laughter could be heard before anyone arrived.

Chen Mu smiled slightly, stood up and said, "It's only about three months away, how can you bear the word 'yes'?"

Because of his previous doubts, he actually started to test it directly this time.

Xu Jingyang chuckled, and although he had something to say, he didn't say much. He walked straight forward, bowed, and then turned around to lead the way towards the mountain gate.

"Let's put everything else aside for now. Fellow Daoist Chen, please follow me into the mountain gate!"

The two of them stood up and walked side by side.

"My master has already made all the arrangements. In a moment, you only need to go through the formalities, and you will become my Fushan Changhe's true disciple..."

Although he had expected this, Chen Mu still couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he actually came here.

"Thank Senior Su for me, and thank Fellow Daoist Xu as well."

He had just entered the sect and already had the status of a true disciple, let alone in such a sect. From this, it can be seen that Su Wenyan must have put in a lot of effort...

"It's okay, don't be so polite!"

Xu Jingyang laughed and suddenly pointed to a floating mountain in front of him: "We're here, the Hall of Inquiry."

Chen Mu looked up and saw a majestic palace standing on the top of the mountain. It was very spacious and had the words "Ask your conscience" written on it.

"Master has already said hello, so you can be exempted from the previous trials. This one is the only one that cannot be avoided. However, this one is actually the simplest. As long as you don't have any inexplicable thoughts, you can pass it easily..." Xu Jingyang explained to Chen Mu in a low voice and slowly stepped into the hall.

The hall is bright and spacious, with a huge statue of an old man placed in the center. The statue has a solemn expression and is quite touching.

"Senior Brother Mo!" Xu Jingyang greeted him, as if he was very familiar with the person in charge here.

"This is Fellow Daoist Chen Mu. You have come here to become a disciple of the mountain sect."

After a brief explanation, Chen Mu followed the guidance of the monk named Mo and sat cross-legged on the cushion in front of the statue, then relaxed his mind and waited quietly.

After a while, he noticed a figure quietly emerging from the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness, and the figure looked exactly like the person in the statue.

"Who are you, where are you from, and what are you doing?"

Three consecutive shouts were like thunder that resounded through my heart.

Chen Mu suddenly felt an inexplicable force pressing against his heart, as if forcing him to tell the truth.

However, he had no other thoughts in mind, so he did not resist and told the truth directly.

The reason he came here was simply to cultivate the Great Dao...

After a moment, the huge statue's spiritual light dimmed quietly, and the two people who were chatting nearby nodded and greeted Chen Mu who had just stood up.

"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Chen... No, congratulations, Junior Brother Chen, for joining our sect and becoming the 317th true disciple of Fushan Changhe..."

The male cultivator named Mo laughed repeatedly, and then took out a lot of things.

Tokens, talismans, robes, and ritual plates...

He first pointed to the token shaped like a mountain with a long river surrounding it and introduced it, "This is your disciple's certificate. From now on, Junior Brother Chen will need this to allocate all the resources in the sect..."

"I need to explain to you, Junior Brother, that in our sect, if you want to exchange for resources, you don't need spirit stones, but the sect's unique mountain and river talisman. This talisman comes from the mountain gate's spiritual veins and allows people to cultivate at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary spirit stones."

"Of course, it's not necessarily impossible to use spirit stones, but it's not very cost-effective to exchange one mountain and river talisman for a thousand spirit stones, so not many people would do it..."

"Junior Brother Chen has just entered the sect. According to custom, the mountain gate will provide a hundred mountain and river talismans free of charge. I hope that Junior Brother will integrate the resources well. Such good things will not happen again in the future."

The man surnamed Mo spoke with such conviction that it was obvious that he had not planned well at the beginning, which led to this lesson.

Chen Mu nodded frequently, digesting everything about Fushan and Changhe.

Seeing him like this, the male cultivator named Mo nodded, handed the token to him, and then drew out a hundred mountain and river talismans.

Chen Mu took them all and used his spiritual sense to leave his thoughts on the token.

Instantly, he felt the pressure from the massive formation that was faintly present across the entire Fushan River disappear completely...

He felt something in his heart and after a pause, he looked at the mountain and river talisman in his hand.

Although it is a talisman, its shape is prismatic, quite similar to ordinary spirit stones, but the mountain and river patterns on it show its difference.

"The spiritual charm is indeed amazing..."

After a brief sigh, Chen Mu put the Mountain and River Talisman worth 100,000 spirit stones into his pocket.

Owning your own spiritual stone mine is just that generous...

The male cultivator named Mo did not stop moving, and then picked up the slightly flickering talisman.

"Everyone has one of these talismans. It's similar to the Jade Sound Transmission Talisman, but it's unique to our sect. It contains the contact talismans of most of our disciples. Only a few, who are so secluded and quiet, haven't shared their addresses or contact information on it..."
