Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 717 Lu Yinglingzhen
At this time, Master Fenglian asked nervously, "The Palace Master has just arrived. Does he have any instructions?"

Although they can be considered as people of Shangzhen Palace, strictly speaking, they are just some on-duty deacons. On weekdays, they can only stay in the palace to practice in the name of guards and are not allowed to enter the palace without reason.

As for whether they could continue to cultivate here in the future, it all depended on whether the new Palace Master, Chen Mu, would approve. Since they didn't know his temper, everyone was a little nervous...

Chen Mu smiled slightly and said loudly, "Just follow the usual procedure. The only difference is that Senior Brother Zi Yang will take over the position of the Side Hall Master."

Zi Yang immediately bowed and said solemnly, "Zi Yang thanks Chen Shang Zhen."

Chen Mu politely called him "Senior Brother", but he couldn't take it calmly. After all, their status was different now, and they couldn't compare with their relationship in the early days...

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They were not familiar with Chen Mu, but they were very familiar with Taoist Zi Yang. They knew that he was free and easy-going and fair in his dealings. With him in charge, things would be much easier in the future.

At this time, Chen Mu waved his sleeves and said, "I will go to the hall. Everyone, please go yourselves."

True Man Fenglian and the others did not dare to disobey the order. After bowing, they all withdrew.

Chen Mu started forward, and Zi Yang followed closely behind.

Although Shangzhen Palace has the word "Palace" in its name, its interior is filled with infinite scenery and a unique world, with cranes and flowing clouds, and a continent away from the world. It is a paradise on earth.

Zi Yang seized the opportunity and said aloud: "Shang Zhen means True Immortal, which is the most outstanding of the six great palaces. Chen Shang Zhen may not find it special at first, but if he practices here regularly, the benefits will become apparent."

Chen Mu nodded slightly when he heard this, and had his own thoughts in his mind.

After walking roughly around, he stopped and asked, "Where is the Dao Pavilion?"

Zi Yang chuckled when he heard this and said, "Is Chen Shangzhen really that anxious?"

Chen Mu smiled and replied, "After observing the Dao Palace's profound techniques, I will go back to Beiyuan."

Zi Yang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "If that's the case, then I'll take you there."

The two of them leaped up and flew out of the palace in a moment.

True Man Fenglian was practicing outside the hall, and when he saw him come out, he quickly stood up and saluted.

Chen Mu just nodded, then flew past and headed straight for the Black and White Taoist Pavilion with Zi Yang.

Halfway through the journey, Zi Yang paused, then spoke out, "Chen Shang Zhen, pardon my words, but if you want to reach the Nascent Soul Perfection within a hundred years and catch up with the Devil Tribulation, you should try your best to cultivate in Shang Zhen Palace."

"I'm not saying this to look down on the Northern Plains. Rather, I'm speaking from a practical point of view. You've just witnessed the celestial aura of the Shangzhen Palace, so you should carefully consider it..."

What he said this time was indeed out of consideration for Chen Mu. The two of them had met by chance in their early years and had a good impression of each other. Naturally, he hoped that Chen Mu would have a smooth career.

Another reason is related to Chen Mu's luck. If he stays in the Taoist Palace for a long time to practice, it is inevitable that his luck will be shared with the Taoist Palace and even Zhongzhou.

Although the bulk of the troops are still in Beiyuan, the more they can go, the better, right?
He believed that Chen Mu would see through this win-win situation.

Chen Mu smiled calmly and nodded, saying, "Senior Brother Ziyang is right. Since I have already promised Master Xuyun, I will keep my word. Once the Beiyuan matter is resolved, I will come to the Dao Palace to practice."

Hearing this, Zi Yang nodded with a smile, said no more, and led Chen Mu to the Black and White Taoist Pavilion.

The place of Taoist canon is the most important place for any sect, and it is not an exaggeration to station a garrison there.

However, the Black and White Taoist Pavilion looked unremarkable. There were no Nascent Soul cultivators under the eaves, and even the Golden Core True Immortals were few and far between, as if there were no precautions at all.

"Could it be the confidence of the number one immortal sect in Central Continent? They're certain that those with ulterior motives won't be able to come here?"

Perhaps seeing Chen Mu's confusion, Zi Yang smiled slightly and pointed to a magic plate on the door of the Taoist pavilion.

This Dharma disk is black and white, which is in line with the Taoist rhyme of black and white, and achieves the image of Tai Chi. It is obviously in a static state, but when you look up, you can only feel the flow of black and white, and the balance of yin and yang.

Chen Mu's eyes flickered, sensing the extraordinary nature of this object. Zi Yang said with considerable pride, "As long as this object remains, no one in this world will be able to break the barrier and enter."

He spoke in a very arrogant tone, not even excluding the living True Lords.

Chen Mu asked, "Why do you think so?"

Zi Yang smiled but did not answer. He just extended his hand and said, "Please lend me your True Dharma Seal for a moment."

Chen Mu waved his sleeves and the seal fell into Zi Yang's hands.

Zi Yang took it respectfully, and then with a surge of his magic power, a golden light shot out from the seal and hit the Dharma disk straight up.

The golden light of the Dharma disk seemed to blend with water and milk, and a gurgling sound was heard, like a clear stream flowing.

In a moment, a ray of spiritual light flew out from inside and appeared in the air, and a man in a Taoist robe with fluttering sleeves walked out!

This man had a handsome face and eyes full of spirit. He was looking at Chen Mu and the others and frowned, saying, "Who called me?"

Chen Mu's pupils trembled, and he sensed something different about the person in front of him. He exclaimed inwardly, "The charm of a weapon spirit?!"

Zi Yang had already bowed his head and saluted, saying respectfully, "Lu Ying Ling Zhen, this is the Palace Master of Shang Zhen Palace. I wish to go to the Dao Pavilion to observe the Dharma. I hope Ling Zhen will allow me to go."

"The Palace Master of Shangzhen Palace? Wasn't he a fat boy? How come he was replaced by such a handsome man?"

Lu Yingling asked out of curiosity.

Zi Yang coughed lightly upon hearing this and said softly, "That was the previous Palace Master, he has passed away..."

"Dead?" Lu Ying raised his eyebrows and said with a tut-tut sound: "If you don't strive for progress, you should have died long ago..."

From his tone, it sounded like he had heard about the absurd things done by the previous palace master and couldn't help but complain about it.

However, Zi Yang didn't dare to respond, so he could only speak again and explain the purpose of his trip.

Lu Yingling really responded, looked at Chen Mu deeply, nodded slowly and said: "This person looks okay, not much worse than Qing Cang when he was young."

When these words were spoken, Chen Mu didn't realize anything, but Zi Yang was secretly shocked, because Qing Cang was not someone else, but the sixth generation ancestor of the Black and White Taoist Palace.

He was a figure whose brilliance surpassed that of the previous and next five thousand years...

Lu Yinglingzhen waved his sleeves, releasing the Dao Pavilion's restrictions, and then said, "Practice well, don't let each generation be inferior to the previous one..."

Zi Yang felt a little embarrassed again. The person Ling Zhen praised was just a guest official, not a true disciple of the Black and White Dao Palace...

He shook his head and quickly returned the Supreme True Seal, gently reminding him, "Lu Yinglingzhen has been stationed at the Dao Pavilion for ten thousand years. If Chen Shangzhen has any questions, he can consult him."

Chen Mu had calmed down by now. He nodded after hearing this, bowed to Lu Yinglingzhen, and then walked in.

As he walked along the corridor, he was still secretly amazed.

The spirit of the weapon is no different from a cultivator. It has been stationed in the Taoist Pavilion for ten thousand years. All these conditions show the background of the Black and White Taoist Palace.

That black and white magic disk must be a rare immortal treasure in this world...

He pondered for a moment, and suddenly his eyes became clear, and he entered the inner room of the Taoist pavilion.

Seeing this, he regained his composure, looked up, and found that the space inside was not as spacious as he had imagined. The layout was similar to that of the Fushan Changhe Daozang.

The walls were filled with stone niches, and inside were scrolls of jade books, shimmering with the spiritual light of Taoism...
