Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 413 Tianguang Zhenren
Some say the disciple was possessed by a demon, and the master reluctantly took action. Others say the disciple betrayed the sect, and the master killed his own brother for the sake of justice...

There are many speculations, but none of them have been confirmed. Even most of Fushan Changhe's disciples do not know the truth. It is estimated that only a few people know the truth.

Looking at the gifted young man before him, Chen Mu felt a little emotional before regaining his composure and asking, "Junior Brother Zhang, has Senior Sister Xiao arrived?"

Zhang Ren reacted after hearing what he said and quickly turned sideways to lead Chen Mu into the inner hall.

"Senior Sister Xiao has just gone in. Senior Brother, please follow me."

Chen Mu nodded slightly, and soon the two of them entered the hall.

The inner hall of Shanhe is not as spacious as the outer hall, but its decoration is much more exquisite.

Chen Mu immediately saw Tianguang Zhenren sitting at the top, who was talking and laughing with Xiao Qiang below.

He was wearing a Taoist robe with a long, casual look, his hair was tied up casually with a hairpin, his face was ordinary, and a long sword with a sheath was placed next to his right hand.

"He is the leader?"

Chen Mu pondered inwardly. The person before him didn't look like the leader of a Yuanying sect, but rather a strange person hidden in the mountains...

"Disciple greets the master."

Even though you think so, you still have to perform the necessary etiquette.

"Junior Brother Chen is here." Xiao Qiang smiled slightly and motioned Chen Mu to come closer to talk.

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he looked up at the headmaster.

Tianguang Zhenren raised his head and smiled, then waved his hand: "Why are you so reserved? Come closer and talk."

Chen Mu nodded and said yes, then stood with Xiao Qiang.

"Well, since you two are here, I'll just be frank..." Tianguang Zhenren pointed to the chair next to him and said, "No need to be so polite, just sit down."

"Thank you, Master." Xiao Qiang moved quickly and sat down almost the moment he finished speaking.

Chen Mu was not familiar with the master's temperament, so he did not act rudely. He bowed and leaned forward to sit down.

Seeing him like this, Tianguang Zhenren shook his head and smiled, saying, "You are a good child, knowing how to behave according to etiquette... However, I have always been reluctant to restrict my disciples with etiquette. From now on, you can do whatever you want in front of me."

Chen Mu was stunned. After decades of practicing Taoism, this was the first time someone praised him as a... good boy.

However, compared to a cultivator who had reached the Perfect Golden Core stage, his decades of cultivation were indeed not much.

Without waiting for him to respond, Tianguang Zhenren went straight to the point and said, "I already know what happened during this trip to Xuantian. You did a good job, taking up half of the quota. This is beyond my expectations, especially Junior-Martial-Nephew Chen..."

He smiled broadly, praised Chen Mu, then changed his tone and continued, "The secret inheritance is extraordinary. The sect needs the two of you to copy down what you have learned."

Xiao Qiang nodded: "Master Su Yao told us about it, so we have copied it down and prepared it in advance."

After she finished speaking, she waved her hand and a jade slip fell near Tianguang Zhenren.

Seeing this, Chen Mu waved and handed over the jade slip. This was something the two of them had thought about together when they returned to the mountain.

After comparison, he confirmed that what Xiao Qiang and others obtained was the "Wuwang Visualization Picture" without any portraits.

Zhenren Tianguang smiled with satisfaction and took the jade slip to examine it on the spot.

The place became quiet for a moment. Zhang Ren came over and set out some spiritual tea, and chatted with the two of them while waiting.

After a short while, Tianguang Zhenren regained his composure, his eyes gleaming with brilliance as he murmured, "This method focuses on the spirit and soul. If it were passed on to Nascent Soul masters, there might be a slight chance of achieving the Primordial Spirit..."

The primordial spirit is the highest realm of the soul. At that level, the primordial spirit exists forever and wanders around the world. Even if the physical body disappears, the primordial spirit remains immortal.

Logically speaking, only after one’s cultivation reaches the level of transformation into a spirit will the soul undergo the baptism of heavenly tribulation and transform into the primordial spirit.

But with this secret method, the impossible things have changed a little bit... Zhenren Tianguang was delighted in his heart. If his Nascent Soul cultivator could achieve the Primordial Spirit, then the name of Fushan Changhe would not be limited to the Beiyuan Continent.

After all, the Great Dao is now declining, and there are few cultivators who have reached the level of God Transformation in the Taiyi Xuanling Realm, let alone those who have reached the level of transcending tribulation.

"The rank of this technique is not obvious, but just based on this one effect it is a priceless treasure!"

Thinking of this, Tianguang Zhenren laughed and said, "You two have made great contributions."

When he heard Su Yao and the others say that it was a method of the soul, he was quite disappointed, but he didn't expect it to be such a pleasant surprise.

"But it wasn't just the two of them who obtained this technique. Xuantian Mansion also got it. As for that Western Desert cultivator... Xuantian Mansion probably wouldn't let him take the inheritance away easily."

He pondered for a moment, then came back to his senses and looked at the two people below: "Tell me, what reward do you want?"

"Here it comes!" Chen Mu's eyes flashed, knowing that his master was going to reward him according to his merits.

Whether or not one can achieve the Golden Elixir smoothly depends on the level of the rewards that follow...

Xiao Qiang glanced sideways at Chen Mu, nodded slightly, and stood up and said, "Master, this disciple and I are both close to the Core Formation stage, so we would like to obtain some spiritual objects to assist us in that process."

After he finished speaking, Chen Mu also stood up and bowed.

This was also what the two of them had discussed before...

"Yes." Tianguang Zhenren nodded and smiled, "As a disciple of Shanhe Dao, you are close to the stage of Dan Jin. Even if this incident did not happen, the master would still give you a spiritual object."

"As for Junior-Junior Brother Chen, the same is true. After the three Nascent Soul ancestors gave their nods, Junior-Junior Brother Chen has basically been confirmed as the Taoist of Mountains and Rivers. However, the promotion ceremony has not yet been prepared."

Chen Mu's heart moved when he heard this. It would be a lie to say that he didn't yearn for it, Taoist Shanhe. After all, he had been coveting the magical powers of the Taoist Canon Hall for a long time.

If one can become a Shanhe Daozi, one can learn a magical power for free every five years...

"Thank you, Yuanying Patriarch, and thank you, Master." Chen Mu immediately bowed in thanks and said, "If these tedious ceremonies are not necessary, they can be omitted. I don't care about them."

Perhaps because of years of practicing Taoism, his mood has changed a lot.

I vaguely remember when I first entered the inner sect of Shuiyunjian and attended the Tianhu Summit for the first time, I watched Senior Brother Xu Yang distributing pills on behalf of the mountain master. I was so envious of his demeanor that I wished I could take his place.

But if it were him now, he probably wouldn't even think about such thoughts. The most important thing is to practice peacefully.

Upon hearing this, Tianguang Zhenren laughed heartily and said, "That's quite true to my temperament!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and two golden lights flew out from his sleeves.

Chen Mu reached out to take it and found it was a small wooden box.

"Sun and Moon Spirit Fruit!"

Xiao Qiang opened the wooden box first and exclaimed.

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he also opened the wooden box, and saw a small fruit in gold and silver.

"Although there are many types of spiritual objects that aid in forming a core, cultivators can only choose one to use." Tianguang Zhenren explained, "These two Sun and Moon Heavenly Spirit Fruits are extremely precious and rank among the best spiritual objects. I hope you two can make good use of them and not waste these precious gifts."

In fact, what he had prepared in advance were only two Xuanzhen Pills, not the Sun and Moon Heavenly Spirit Fruit at this time.

This was because he just realized the preciousness of the secret method, so he made up his mind to exchange it for a reward.

The grade of the Sun and Moon Spiritual Fruit is not high, only a third-grade mid-grade one, but its rarity is higher than some fourth-grade spiritual medicines.

This is because the method of growing it has long been lost and there are not many left in the world.

Even the two from Fushan Changhe were acquired thousands of years ago...
