Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 759: Taisu Wuxiang Yuqing Jue
Without knowing when, the depths of winter came quietly.

The people of the Black and White Taoist Palace followed the changes in the weather and comprehended the Taoist principles. Therefore, unlike ordinary small sects, they did not use magic to stop it, but allowed the heavy snow and the biting north wind to blow.

The snow stopped and the sky cleared. The clouds in the sky dispersed and the mist dissipated. Looking up, I saw the sky, clouds, mountains and water, all white, with almost no other colors.

In the side pavilions of Shangzhen Palace, the black eaves are covered with snow. The few pine trees in the courtyard are even greener after being washed by the wind and snow. Behind the wall, lush green bamboos stand in the snow.

"Squeak."

The door of the pavilion opened, and a young Taoist walked out slowly. His brows were slightly furrowed, and he looked at the clouds and mountains in the distance as he walked, as if he was thinking about something.

He was wearing a black robe with silver threads, which made him look taller and more slender in the white sky and earth. However, the slightly messy hair on his forehead added a sense of casualness to him.

"Everything in the universe returns to its roots..."

"The great way is simple. Only by understanding the fundamentals and returning to the great essence can one achieve the Tao of no form and reach the realm of Jade Purity..."

Chen Mu muttered to himself, his spiritual perception becoming clearer and clearer.

"The Dao of the Formless… The Jade Purity Supreme Realm…"

Suddenly, he heard the sound of thunder in his ears, and a clear energy appeared all over his body, stirring up thousands of flying snowflakes. A spiritual light came out from the top of his head, as if the daylight was shining backwards, mysterious and extraordinary.

"It's done, it's done!"

In an instant, a gleam of brilliance flashed in Chen Mu's eyes, and he laughed out loud while waving his sleeves.

Three years have passed since I obtained this technique to destroy the seeds of Tao.

During the three years, apart from his normal practice, he spent all his time comprehending this technique.

He originally thought that this technique was just a special method that Tao Xianxu had obtained by chance, but after he truly comprehended it, he became more and more shocked.

This technique involves an extremely high level, and actually points directly to the realm of "the great way is simple".

You know, the Great Dao is simple, but if you ask who has reached this state, there might not be anyone in this world...

Moreover, according to the records in this technique, there are many Taoist methods in the world, but most of them do not involve the fundamentals, which is what is often said as "Tao follows nature."

"Tao follows nature" is also the realm of immortals, which is far beyond the reach of cultivators in this world.

This technique was created based on this, pursuing the concept of all things returning to one, erasing the three thousand Tao seeds, and achieving the supreme natural Tao.

Conceptually speaking, the person who created this technique possesses extraordinary talent and unpredictable abilities. In Chen Mu's mind, the only one who can be compared to him is the predecessor who created the "Great Five Elements Zhoutian Mystical Art".

These two techniques have different focuses, one is "Tao follows nature" and the other is "the foundation of the great way". One has an upper limit and the other has a lower limit. It is impossible to judge which one is stronger.

"I already mastered the 'Great Five Elements Zhoutian Mystical Art', and now I've obtained this 'Tai Su Wu Xiang Yu Qing Jue'. Could it really be luck?"

"The preciousness of this technique far exceeds my imagination. Tao Xianxu... is willing to share this secret technique."

Chen Mu felt certain in his heart that he owed Tao Xianxu Tian a great favor.

This is a matter of great importance, so no matter how much I repay you, it won't be too much...

However, what Chen Mu didn't know was that Tao Xianxu himself didn't know how precious this technique was.

After all, he did not have the help of the mysterious water lotus. Even if he tried his best throughout his life, he would be far from reaching the realm of "Tao follows nature" advocated by this technique.

Moreover, he had not grasped the essence of this technique at all, the "formlessness" of Taoism...

It can be seen that no matter how precious the Tao is, it still depends on the individual...

Chen Mu flicked his sleeves and turned around immediately, returning to the quiet room in a moment.

After sitting down, he did not rush to start, but took a deep breath, held his breath and concentrated, his mind gradually calmed down, and his eyes became clear again.

After a long time, he finally focused his mind, his lips moved, and he muttered something. The Nascent Soul in his body also sat in meditation beside the water lotus, and every breath he took echoed with the spiritual light.

Not long after, Yuanying suddenly opened his eyes, stretched out his hand, and a strand of jade-white fat quietly burst out from his fingertips.

This is the true meaning of "Tai Su Wu Xiang Yu Qing Jue", which can erase the seeds of Tao and provide the fundamental method.

The fundamental method that Chen Mu chose was naturally "Lingshu Qingyuan Zhenshui".

He used this method to form a Nascent Soul, and what he achieved was a ninth-level water-based Nascent Soul. With this method as the foundation, his strength growth could be said to be twice the result with half the effort.

The technique he chose as the first "nutrient" technique was "Fuyao Qingxuanfeng".

He did not spend much energy on this technique, and its power was not as great as that of thunder magic, its defense was not as good as that of water magic, and its special ability was not as good as that of the "Twelve Dragon Birds Killing Immortal Demon Sword".

Although he didn't want to think so, the result was like this. This technique was useless to him.

It would certainly be a good thing to stay, but if it is not beneficial to his own path, he will give it up without hesitation.

The green whirlwind floated slowly, and the jade light slowly approached. At the moment of contact, the green wind shattered, and the jade light suddenly emitted a dazzling light.

In an instant, Chen Mu felt hot all over, his mind was in ups and downs, and the green wind in his chest was like a knife, overflowing his purple palace. With just a slight shake, it seemed that it was about to break out of his body from the acupoints.

Chen Mu naturally would not let the essence of the Tao Seed go to waste, so he quickly suppressed his breath and slowly restrained it.

This is another time-consuming process.

However, compared to condensing the Dao Seed, this process is much faster.

Three months later, the scattered green wind was finally gathered together. When Chen Mu looked inward, he saw only the light of white jade, as thick as ointment, extremely refined and pure.

Now, the only thing left is the last step, which is to offer this Dao rhyme to the fundamental Dharma.

Whether this last step can be completed in one go and add to his foundation in water magic is the key to his future achievement of the ultimate law, and there can be no mistakes.

How can we stop moving forward until we achieve complete success?
In the quiet room, the Liuhe Yinling Cauldron was flickering slightly.

Chen Mu's mind gradually calmed down, and he slowly began to practice the magic formula.

The white jade light floated like clouds and mist, gradually approaching the Dao Seed of Water Law, that ancient water palace...

Chen Mu concentrated his mind and didn't notice the passage of time.

He had only one feeling: as the jade light merged into the water palace, making it clearer and more solid, a stream of the origin of the great way spontaneously emerged, floating within the water palace...

The morning bells and evening drums, the mountains and rivers are safe.

Suddenly one day, there was a faint movement in the quiet room.

"strangeness……"

Chen Mu had already opened his eyes at this time. Although he was very happy in his heart, his brows were secretly furrowed, as if he was confused.

"Water magic has indeed made great progress, which shows that this technique is genuine and truly points directly to the path of ultimate law."

"only……"

He muttered something, then suddenly raised his hand.

The next moment, a gust of green wind suddenly rose in front of them, and the field suddenly became quiet, as if even the air was bound by the green wind.

"Hasn't Fuyao Qingxuanfeng... already had his Dao Seed annihilated?"

Chen Mu was stunned. After a moment, he looked inward and found that the original green whirlwind seed had indeed disappeared without a trace.

"But why..."

He was puzzled and reached out again, but this time he slowed down and carefully observed the changes in his inner inspiration.

I saw a stream of water rushing out of the water palace, and when it passed through a jade-colored light, the Taoist inspiration suddenly changed slightly.

Until it burst out of the body and manifested in the outside world, it had already become the existence of Fuyao Qingxuanfeng...

"This……"

Chen Mu suddenly fell silent and fell into deep thought.

"The great truth is simple, but its evolution leads to complexity..."

"Understand the fundamental principles, return to the Great Element, and then you will achieve... the formless Taoism..."

"Could it be that?"

His eyes suddenly lit up and he understood immediately.

"The formless Taoism, it turns out that it should be here!" Although the seeds of Taoism have been destroyed, the meaning of the law still exists. In the "Tai Su Wu Xiang Shang Qing Jue", the form is transformed into the formless. As long as the water flowers are endless, this can be used as the basis to cast spells.

As the saying goes, all things return to one, and one transforms all things. This is the ultimate way...

Chen Mu's mind was lifted, and he consciously embarked on the path of the great road!
"Even if the Dao Seed can be annihilated, what about the meaning of the Great Dao?"

He did not forget that there was still the killing talisman deep in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"If the Way of Killing can be transformed into formlessness, then doesn't that mean that the Three Thousand Great Ways can also become one..."

In an instant, Chen Mu was startled by his sudden thought.

Regardless of whether this is feasible or not, even if it is possible, it is not something he can do now as he really wants.

"It's better to be realistic and focus on the present..."

He took a deep breath, unable to hide the smile on his face.

"In this way, the Taiyin Yi Lei Tian Zhuo technique and the Twelve Dragon Birds Killing Immortal Demon Knife can both grind away the essence of the Tao seed."

"Moreover, all the magical powers, magic techniques, and even spells that I have cultivated in the past have been completely obliterated. From now on, I will only master the fundamental Taoism, and rely on it to evolve into countless forms!"

Thinking of this, Chen Mu calmed down and immediately closed his eyes again, muttering something.

My Nascent Soul mobilized the Jade Light, this time focusing on the Twelve Dragon Birds...

……

Flowers bloom, flowers bloom.

An autumn rain continued, and in the blink of an eye, another three years had passed.

Chen Mu sat cross-legged on the cushion. A spiritual cauldron on one side of his body vibrated slightly, emitting a buzzing sound, but he did not feel annoyed or disturbing.

When the last trace of mist in the quiet room disappeared, he let out a long breath, his eyelids slightly raised, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

At this moment, Chen Mu's realm remained unchanged, but his aura was greatly different from three years ago.

Three years ago, he had mastered many Taoist techniques, and all kinds of spiritual inspirations were flowing around him.

But right now, it was pure and pure, like a deep ancient pool, and nothing else could be seen...

This is because from the thunder method to the water arrow method, no matter it is the Tao seed or the seal, they have all been polished by him into the origin of the Tao and integrated into the water method.

In three years, the Dao rhyme of "Lingshu Qingyuan Zhenshui" has grown exponentially. If compared with water veins, at least three fourth-level spiritual rivers are needed to achieve such progress.

And if calculated in terms of time, it would have offset his decades of hard practice.

You know, he has the mysterious water lotus to help him. It takes him a few decades, but for an ordinary cultivator, it may take a hundred years or even thousands of years.

A Nascent Soul cultivator enjoys a thousand-year lifespan. In just three years, he had already achieved half the accomplishments of an ordinary cultivator...

"During the sword fighting event, I witnessed the Yuanqing Sect's Xuanji Daoist fellow's perfect Dao skills, which was astonishing. I never thought that in just over thirty years, I would also show signs of perfection."

Chen Mu smiled slightly, stood up and walked out of the palace.

Fenglian and the others quickly stood up to greet them, but the number of people present was far less than six years ago.

Chen Mu was not surprised. When he first returned from Southern Xinjiang, many stewards in the palace felt sorry for him because he was in great trouble. So they secretly became disloyal and even hesitated to step forward to greet him.

He is not a soft-hearted person who can be bullied. How could he stay in the palace for long in the face of such subordinates?

So after the matter was settled, he found an excuse to send Zi Yang away.

"Does the Lord have any instructions?"

Fenglian bowed and asked, her expression more respectful than before.

Chen Mu waved his hand without saying a word, jumped up, found the right direction and flew away.

Before long, he arrived in front of the Black and White Taoist Pavilion.

The Dharma plate remains above the door of the pavilion.

He took out the Supreme Seal and shot out a golden light that flew upwards to the Dharma disk.

In a moment, Lu Yingling appeared in mid-air, calling out, "Which boy is looking for me?"

Chen Mu bowed his head and said, "I am Chen Mu from Shangzhen Palace, and I am honored to meet Lingzhen."

Lu Yinglingzhen's eyebrows twitched slightly, he lowered his eyes and looked for a while, then nodded and said, "It's you, why did you call me?"

He remembered Chen Mu, who had advised him more than 20 years ago not to be distracted too much and to focus on one method to achieve the state of incarnation, which was the right path.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

However, he noticed the change in Chen Mu's aura and thought that he had listened to his advice and actually put it into action.

"Extremely pure, with profound energy. Good boy, you've made considerable progress in the past twenty years!"

Lu Yinglingzhen nodded repeatedly, and the more he investigated, the more amazed he was.

"Such a speed, I've never seen it before..."

"Did you eat something? How could you gain such a huge benefit?"

Chen Mu smiled slightly and said with a bow, "Ling Zhen, you are joking. I have achieved this through hard work."

Lu Yinglingzhen immediately curled his lips. He naturally didn't believe what Chen Mu said, but he also had no intention of pursuing the disciples' background and opportunities, so he waved his hand and didn't mention it anymore.

"What are you calling me for?"

Chen Mu replied: "I want to see the Taoism in the pavilion."

Lu Yingling really nodded, waved his hand to disperse the restriction in front of the door, and made way.

Chen Mu didn't stop, and walked in after another bow.

After walking about a hundred steps, a room full of stone niches appeared before our eyes.

As a guest official, he could only choose from the first floor of the Dao Pavilion.

He still remembered that the last time he came here, he didn't like any of them and was scolded by Lu Yingling for it.

But this time, he didn't have so many requests.

In the end, all we're doing is promoting water techniques together. Currently, the most important thing is to increase the number...

Half an hour later, Lu Yingling's eyes widened with a look of disbelief.

"what?"

"You're going to copy down all of these twenty-plus Taoist techniques?!"

Chen Mu frowned slightly: "But it's against the rules?"

"cough……"

Lu Yinglingzhen came back to his senses and said with a complicated expression, "That's not the case. You are the Lord of Shangzhen Palace. Although you are not allowed to go to the second floor due to your guest status, you can choose as many as you want here. There is no limit on the number."

Chen Mu was determined in his heart, and he bowed and said, "Then please ask Ling Zhen to lift the ban and allow me to copy it."

"This……"

Lu Yingling seemed to be hesitant to speak, stammering and unable to speak, as if he was carefully choosing his words.

"Boy, I'm not saying anything to you, but since you've already understood the Dao of the Supreme Law, why are you still wasting time practicing so many Daoist techniques?"

"I can understand one or two methods, just consider it as adding a new method, but these twenty-plus..."

"Isn't that a bit too exaggerated?"

Chen Mu knew that he meant well, but the reason could not be revealed, so he could only be vague.

"Thank you Lingzhen for reminding me. What I'm doing this time is not entirely for cultivation, but for reference, to deduce my own destiny..."
