Chapter 182 Longhu Mountain Beset by Internal and External Troubles
Chapter 182 Longhu Mountain Beset by Internal and External Troubles
Make big!
Taking over Xuanyin Temple expands the Xuanmen territory of Longhu Mountain and brings in a talented person for the mountain. With this achievement, he will surely receive many benefits upon returning to the mountain.
Yunlong Daoren was secretly pleased with this matter and became even more enthusiastic towards Lu Feng.
Lu Feng inquired about the situation on Longhu Mountain, and Daoist Yunlong tried his best to explain it to Lu Feng clearly.
After settling the matter, Daoist Yunlong sent the message back to Longhu Mountain and then stayed at Xuanyin Temple, waiting for a reply from Longhu Mountain.
The Taoist priests on Longhu Mountain were quite efficient; in just two days, Master Yunlong received a reply from Longhu Mountain.
A magnificent crane, the size of a griffin, arrived carrying a scroll of silk, formally congratulating Xuan Yin Temple on becoming part of the Xuanmen sect, headed by Longhu Mountain.
"Thank you so much, Uncle He, for making this trip!"
Master Yunlong solemnly took the scroll of silk from Longhu Mountain from the back of the spirit crane.
This silk scroll is not ordinary silk; it is a special item woven entirely with gold thread, refined with spiritual materials, and crafted in a furnace. In a sense, it can also be considered a magical artifact.
In the main hall of Xuan Yin Temple, Daoist Yunlong slowly unfurled the silk scroll.
The front of the silk manuscript features a large character “道” (Dao), with vigorous and powerful strokes, clearly the work of a master. The single character “道” itself contains an indescribable profound meaning, inspiring various insights into the Dao in those who gaze upon it.
"This silk scroll with the character 'Dao' is a valuable item; this single character alone is worth a lot of resources!"
Lu Feng sensed the extraordinary nature of this silk scroll and sighed inwardly.
Such things that can help people improve their understanding of Taoism are extremely precious and rare. Even if you wanted to buy them, you couldn't, thanks to the current channels of Xuan Yin Temple.
Longhu Mountain really went all out to send this item, and Lu Feng felt respected from their actions.
So far, Longhu Mountain seems pretty good.
Seeing that Lu Feng had discovered the wonderful use of the silk scroll, the Jade Dragon Taoist grinned and introduced it:
"The character 'Dao' on this silk scroll was written by the current Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain. It contains the essence of Dao and can aid in cultivation. It is even useful for Daoists in the Foundation Establishment stage. It is a precious treasure even within Longhu Mountain and rarely leaves the mountain. This shows how much the current Celestial Master values your Xuan Yin Temple!"
"Then please thank the Celestial Master for his reward!"
Lu Feng expressed his gratitude and took the silk scroll from Yunlong Daoist's hand. There were also words written on the back of the silk scroll.
It stated when Xuan Yin Temple joined Longhu Mountain, the agreement between the two sides, the benefits Lu Feng received, and the obligations he had to fulfill. Next to these words was a crimson Heavenly Master's seal.
A condensed and powerful magical force flowed across the crimson seal, a force that had surpassed the Foundation Establishment level, the work of a Golden Core cultivator from Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Lu Feng carefully sensed that the Golden Core level power existed on this silk scroll, giving the words on it a certain degree of binding force.
Longhushan fulfilled the agreement, and Lu Feng enjoyed the benefits; therefore, he also needs to fulfill his obligations.
If Lu Feng were to tear up this silk scroll and break the agreement, he would suffer a backlash from this power, and in future battles against Longhu Mountain, he would be at a disadvantage, lose some initiative, and reduce his chances of victory.
"What wondrous power and methods! Longhu Mountain truly lives up to its reputation as an established power entrenched in Liang Kingdom. They have many tricks up their sleeves and should not be underestimated!"
Lu Feng thought to himself.
Of course, this constraint is not insurmountable. As long as Lu Feng's strength surpasses that of the master of this power, he can easily break this constraint.
Alternatively, finding a helper at the Golden Core level could easily resolve this constraint.
If Lu Feng wants to resolve this matter concerning the silk scroll, he should go to the Lord's World and find his teacher, Ms. Green.
With a backup plan in mind, Lu Feng no longer cared about the silk scroll. After all, he had just joined Longhu Mountain, and he still had to give them face.
Following the instructions of Daoist Yunlong, he placed the silk scroll in the main hall of Xuanyin Temple and offered it with incense from the temple to signify that Xuanyin Temple had officially joined Longhu Mountain.
From then on, Xuan Yin Temple and Longhu Mountain were on the same front of the Xuanmen sect in Liang Kingdom, sharing weal and woe and being of one mind.
In the main hall of Xuan Yin Temple, bells and drums resounded, and the Taoist priests followed behind Lu Feng, all holding incense and offering prayers.
Incense smoke rose slowly, swirling around the silk scroll bearing the character "Dao" that was being offered.
Lu Feng observed with his divine sense and saw that the power of the incense offered by the people would quietly disappear upon contact with the silk scroll, as it was no longer part of the territory's system.
The character "Dao" on the golden silk scroll shone brightly. When Lu Feng looked closely, he seemed to see a phantom of a fairy pavilion standing amidst the clouds and mountains.
The incense offerings made by the Taoist priests of Xuanyin Temple were transmitted to this celestial pavilion through the medium of the silk scroll.
"This is...this is the blessed land of a Golden Core cultivator from Longhu Mountain?"
After pondering for a while, Lu Feng vaguely guessed the origin of this illusory fairyland.
No wonder Longhu Mountain offered such generous terms to invite him to join; it turns out they were eyeing the immense incense offerings and prayers under the jurisdiction of Xuanyin Temple.
Lu Feng has done a good job developing the Xuan Yin Temple territory. The people under his rule live in peace and prosperity, the population continues to grow, and their morale and spirit are quite good.
Before Yunlong Daoren came to persuade Xuanyin Temple to join Longhu Mountain, he had already visited the areas under Xuanyin Temple's jurisdiction and personally witnessed the abundant resources of incense offerings and vows under Xuanyin Temple's jurisdiction. Only then did he manage to persuade the higher-ups of Longhu Mountain to offer Xuanyin Temple such generous terms.
Lu Feng valued the heritage of Longhu Mountain, while Longhu Mountain valued the incense offerings and prayers under the jurisdiction of Xuan Yin Temple.
"Very well, each gets what they need! As long as Longhu Mountain still needs the incense and prayers from my Xuan Yin Temple, then my position as the Abbot of Xuan Yin Temple and an inner elder of Longhu Mountain will remain secure. But if they truly need nothing, then I'll have to worry about my position as the leader of the Six Yang Sect!"
Having figured these things out, Lu Feng breathed a slight sigh of relief. If Longhu Mountain truly had no desires, he wouldn't feel at ease staying there.
After settling these matters, Lu Feng also asked Daoist Yunlong:
"Fellow Daoist, I have longed to visit Longhu Mountain for a long time. I wonder when I will be able to set foot on Longhu Mountain and see the immortal scenery there?"
Yunlong Daoist naturally understood Lu Feng's meaning. After thinking for a moment, he said:
“In principle, as an inner elder of Longhu Mountain, you can go to Longhu Mountain at any time. However, the current Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain has gone out on business these days and will probably not return for two or three months!”
"I advise you to postpone your trip to Longhu Mountain. There are many conflicts there, and without a Celestial Master to oversee things, your visit could easily lead to trouble. After all, Longhu Mountain is no longer the peaceful place it once was; it's now rife with sectarian disputes and worldly affairs..."
At this point, Daoist Yunlong sighed and explained to Lu Feng with some helplessness.
Although Longhu Mountain is the leading Xuanmen sect in Liang Kingdom, the cultivators on the mountain are just like those in the human world, filled with conflicts of interest and deceit. In the past, with the presence of the old Celestial Master at the Golden Core realm, everything could be kept under control and the mountain could not descend into chaos. However, in recent years, the old Celestial Master at the Golden Core realm on Longhu Mountain has often gone into seclusion and has not been seen on the mountain for a long time.
Without the Heavenly Master to suppress everything, the current Heavenly Master, Wang Daoyi, is merely a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator and has no ability to suppress all sounds in the mountain, making Longhu Mountain increasingly chaotic.
The people on Longhu Mountain were not of one mind internally, so naturally they could not unite to deal with the Vajra Temple outside the mountain.
Hmm, there are actually these kinds of troubles on Longhu Mountain!
Upon hearing this, Lu Feng immediately felt that by attaching himself to Longhu Mountain, he had embarked on a pirate ship.
However, the more chaotic Longhu Mountain is, the more opportunities and benefits it may contain.
The Cloud Dragon Taoist in front of him was clearly a member of the lineage of the contemporary Celestial Master Wang Daoyi. Such an obvious statement was clearly intended to pull him into Wang Daoyi's camp.
Lu Feng understood the principle that you have to choose the right side to get benefits.
Since the current Celestial Master Wang Daoyi is not on Longhu Mountain, Lu Feng naturally has no intention of going on an adventure to Longhu Mountain now.
It'll only take two or three months. Lu Feng has plenty of time; he's not in a hurry at all.
He shared his idea with Daoist Yunlong, who was immediately delighted and beamed with joy.
This Fellow Daoist Lu is clearly not a reckless person, very good, very good!
It was impossible to go to Longhu Mountain for the time being, but Lu Feng had no intention of returning empty-handed. He asked around with Daoist Yunlong and managed to get some usable spells and techniques back for Xuan Yin Temple.
"The supernatural powers and techniques on Mount Longhu need to be obtained from the Divine Power Hall within the mountain. Although you have the status of an inner sect elder, you still need the current Celestial Master to lead you there and comprehend them."
"However, some basic techniques from Longhu Mountain can be studied and comprehended by you, fellow Daoist. These techniques are simplified from the supernatural and wondrous methods of Longhu Mountain, and they are good for training disciples and for you to gain some insight into them!"
After explaining, Daoist Yunlong took out a basic martial arts manual from his robes and handed it to Lu Feng.
Lu Feng unfolded the package and saw that there were quite a few of them.
It includes "Dragon Tiger Yin Yang Gong", "Eating the Clouds and Absorbing Qi Method", "Five Qi Great Capture Technique"...
There are thirteen magical techniques in total, covering methods of gathering qi and opening the acupoints, defending against enemy attacks, and assisting in life preservation. Each one is a righteous cultivation method with considerable power, and the true qi cultivated is also abundant and upright.
These spells and techniques greatly enriched the cultivation options for Lu Feng's subordinates. Although they could not master supernatural powers, they could still cultivate step by step to reach the Foundation Establishment stage without any problems.
Longhu Mountain is, after all, a reputable and legitimate sect in the Liang Kingdom, and its martial arts techniques are comprehensive and effective.
Lu Feng obtained these cultivation techniques and placed them in the Xuan Yin Temple's scripture pavilion, allowing the Taoists in the temple to exchange them for learning using their contribution points.
No Taoist would refuse such a fine thing as a superior cultivation technique from Longhu Mountain.
Lu Feng also looked at these methods himself. With his mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation, learning these methods was extremely simple.
He could learn it by watching it a few more times, but learning these techniques did not increase his combat power in the slightest.
However, Lu Feng gained some insights into the Xuanmen Daoist arts, making it easier for him to cultivate the Mingyu Spring and Autumn Cicada Technique.
The Taoist practices of Longhu Mountain are completely different from the Blood God Sect's demonic blood arts.
Lu Feng used to practice blood-path demonic arts, but now he practices Daoist arts while cultivating the Mingyu Spring and Autumn Cicada Technique.
Two completely different paths converged on him, mutually reinforcing each other and merging into one, giving Lu Feng an aura of both immortality and demonhood.
While waiting for Wang Daoyi, the contemporary Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain, to return to Longhu Mountain, Daoist Yunlong temporarily returned to Longhu Mountain.
Before parting, Lord Yunlong said that as soon as the current Celestial Master Wang Daoyi returned, he would send a message to Lu Feng, asking him to go to Longhu Mountain.
Lu Feng agreed to them all.
After seeing off Daoist Yunlong, Lu Feng's life returned to normal, and he continued to cultivate his supernatural powers.
Whether it's the Blood God Demon Scripture or the Mingyu Spring and Autumn Cicada Technique, Lu Feng has only entered the basics. He has cultivated the supernatural powers and can use them, but he has not yet perfected them.
Take the Blood God Demon Scripture as an example. To cultivate the Blood God Demon Scripture to perfection, one needs to cultivate a vast amount of blood essence to create an endless sea of blood, cultivate three thousand Blood God Children, merge the Blood God Children with the endless sea of blood, and then cultivate oneself into a Blood God, merging with the sea of blood. Only then can one consider the Blood God Demon Scripture to be cultivated to perfection.
At that time, as long as the Blood Sea is not destroyed and the three thousand Blood God Sons are not all dead, even if Lu Feng's physical body is destroyed, he can use the Blood God Sons in the Blood Sea to be reborn in an instant.
When facing an enemy, there's no need to use a thousand tricks. Just transform into a blood shadow and pounce on the enemy. All protective auras, magical artifacts, and treasures will be tainted by the sea of blood, and the enemy will be devoured in an instant.
Lu Feng has only just begun to understand the Blood God Demon Scripture; he is still far from reaching such a perfect level.
The Mingyu Spring and Autumn Cicada Technique is similar. To perfect it, one needs to lie dormant on the earth and undergo nine rebirths. Through each transformation, one cultivates oneself into the body of the Spring and Autumn Jade Cicada before achieving perfection.
Both of these supernatural abilities require Lu Feng to continue to work hard and cultivate them gradually.
Cultivation also requires a lot of resources. The Blood God Demon Scripture requires the essence of blood and flesh, and the Bright Jade Spring and Autumn Cicada Technique requires the energy of the earth.
In other words, Lu Feng has a powerful world behind him with abundant resources; otherwise, he wouldn't be able to support the cultivation of supernatural powers by the few people in Lu Feng's territory.
Lords of the World, the River of Rage.
Lu Feng arrived here, and after a long time, the Naga camp that he remembered was located by the Angry River had disappeared.
Where did Vachira and the others go?
As Lu Feng was wondering, several Naga heads emerged from the Angry River and waved to Lu Feng in the air.
"My lord, we are here. The Dragon King has built a water palace in the Angry River. The chieftain has led us to move our camp to the water palace. Please enter the water, my lord, and we will lead you to the Dragon Palace!"
The voice of the Naga in the water reached Lu Feng's ears. Lu Feng descended from the air, cast a water-avoiding spell, and then followed the Naga into the Angry River.
In the clear river water, the Naga twisted its supple serpentine tail, cutting through the ripples and carrying the land breeze deeper into the riverbed.
Soon, a colossal dragon palace standing on the riverbed rocks appeared before Lu Feng's eyes, a truly magnificent sight.
"The old Dragon King is living a good life!" Lu Feng exclaimed, admiring the scale of the Dragon Palace and Water Mansion.
