He started as a shepherd and took on countless jobs.

Duties include beast tamer.

Lines of small ink-wash characters disappeared.

The effect of the [Yan Beast] reminded him of an old friend.

The little blue-haired girl, whoever touches her will become a fool.

Find a mountain with a hundred thousand peaks, dive in, and when you come out you'll have a million beasts at your command.

Demons are used to subdue demons.

……

"This place is nice."

Pei Si found a cave, went inside, and absorbed all the energy from the red stone to nourish his soul.

Half a day later, Pei Si emerged from the pass.

"That's enough to connect to the fourth paper doll clone." Pei Si stretched and did some calculations with his hands.

"Oh, there's a chance in the west."

…………

There is a mountain to the west, called Pingdingshan (Flat-topped Mountain).

A group of four people and a horse came from east to west.

The four were respectively called Jin Gong, Mu Mu, Huang Po, and Sanzang.

The horse is called Yima.

The monk had a face like jade, a tall and straight figure, and a handsome appearance.

After a long journey, Sanzang looked exhausted. Seeing the steep mountains ahead, he said to his three disciples, "There are treacherous mountains blocking our way; there may be demons."

Jin Gong chuckled and said, "Master, don't panic. With me here, even if demons block our way, we can just kill them with one blow."

"Master, have you become complacent? Your cultivation is not yet complete; you cannot afford to be lazy."

"Mother Mu, go patrol the mountain and scout the way," Jin Gong ordered, pulling on Mother Mu's ear.

With a wry smile, Mother Mu waved her sleeve and said, "Senior brother, I'll go, I'll go."

Mu Mu was naturally lazy, so she agreed to Jin Gong's request, rolled up her sleeves, and went up the mountain.

He found a shady and secluded spot and took a long nap.

Before they knew it, half a day had passed. Mu Mu opened her hazy eyes and mumbled, "If my senior brother asks, I'll say that this mountain is called Stone Mountain, and there's a cave on the mountain called Stone Cave..."

Suddenly, a woodpecker flew over and pecked the wood mother's lips, drawing blood. The woodpecker wasn't about to let go; it pecked the wood mother's ear before flying away.

"Pah, that bird is too shameless, it tricked people and then ran away!" Mother Mu said with a gloomy expression, and went back to report.

He recounted his explanation of the rocky mountain and rocky cave to his senior brother.

Upon hearing this, Jin Gong sneered, rolled up his sleeves, grabbed Mu Mu's ear, and scolded, "You idiot, you're so lazy!"

"Master, a Taoist priest is coming from ahead," said Granny Huang, who had been silent all along.

The Taoist priest, who walked with a limp, said upon seeing Sanzang, "I am a wandering Taoist priest who stumbled upon the Silver Demon of Flat-Top Mountain. These injuries are thanks to him!"

Upon hearing this, Sanzang's expression changed drastically.

There really is a great demon on this mountain.

Jin Gong stared coldly at the Taoist priest, his gaze intense.

The Taoist priest secretly cast a spell, summoning three great mountains to suppress Jin Gong.

Jin Gong carried three great mountains on his back, making every step difficult.

The Taoist priest conjured a cloud of black mist, intending to abduct Sanzang.

"Fellow Daoist, you have skillful methods." Suddenly, a clear, cold voice rang out.

Pei Si stood in the air, his sleeves fluttering.

The environment here is different from before; one can fly through the air.

Pei Si glanced at the four people, master and disciples, and already knew what was going on.

The original owner of this Daoist secret realm truly possessed extraordinary abilities, having even evolved the path of cultivating both body and spirit here.

These Golden Man, Wooden Woman, and Yellow Woman, along with the Golden and Silver Demons of Pingdingshan, are all from the same Journey to the West I read in my previous life.

The Journey to the West implicitly contains the inner alchemy path of cultivating both body and mind, which is a different path from the Purple Mansion Golden Elixir path that he is currently cultivating.

The hardships and dangers encountered along the way were inextricably linked to that handsome monk.

The Silver Demon's move of the Three Mountains to suppress the Golden Duke was essentially an activity to subdue the Mind Monkey.

What is meant by "Three Flowers Gather at the Top, Five Elements Return to the Origin"?

The three flowers are further divided into gold flower, silver flower, and lead flower. The five elements are metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Therefore, this place is called Lotus Cave on Flat Top Mountain.

The two flowers, gold and silver, went missing and transformed into demons here, which means their cultivation has gone awry!

Before his spiritual practice was complete, Sanzang became complacent.

According to the Great Dao of Internal Alchemy, which emphasizes the dual cultivation of body and mind, the circulation of true qi in the body's meridians depends entirely on the regulation of the divine fire within the body, allowing the true qi to either stop, move, or accelerate within the meridians.

As soon as the divine fire was lit, Sanzang became complacent!

Therefore, the firepower is insufficient!

The Wood Mother belongs to the Wood element, therefore the Metal Duke wants the Wood Mother to patrol the mountains and strive.

The Wood Mother was lazy and unwilling to exert herself, which made Sanzang feel lazy. Since the Wood Mother was lazy, the fire simply couldn't be lit!

The woodpecker's beak drawing blood signifies a clouded mind and careless speech; the sound of a fly hitting one's ear again is a metaphor for a clouded mind and poor hearing.

When the three external treasures of the ears, eyes, and mouth fail to function, a person's mind will become stubborn and unyielding!

Pei Si knew what was about to happen after reading this passage.

If we follow the idea of ​​the master of this secret realm, we can evolve into the path of cultivating both body and mind.

Those two demons, the gold one and the silver one, must also have a nine-tailed fox godmother.

The two attendants who carried his godmother's sedan chair had to have the characters "dragon" and "tiger" in their names.

The golden rope is made of earth to suppress the dragon and tiger, which corresponds to the fact that the Golden Duke was suppressed under three great mountains.

The fox is suspicious by nature; its unsettled mind is called "huang" (韻). Its nine tails signify confusion and uncertainty.

Pei Si understood in a single thought.

The Golden Lord, the Wooden Mother, the Yellow Woman, Sanzang, and the two demons of gold and silver all vanished.

Pei Si silently speculated in his heart.

Could the master of this secret realm feel that his path to enlightenment is cut off and wish to switch to the path of cultivating both body and spirit?

Currently, the Purple Mansion Golden Elixir Dao is prevalent, but those who cultivate their nature and life force are rare.

A golden light suddenly appeared, and a golden treasure chest slowly rotated.

Pei Si opened it, and inside lay a Seven Star Sword.

The "Seven Star Sword" symbolizes the metal element of the Gen (艮) and Dui (兑) trigrams, representing the interconnectedness of energy between mountains and lakes.

The golden energy can be passed on to Bai Guanxing for use.

Pei Si hung the Seven Star Sword at his waist without any restraint, seemingly unaware of the principle of not flaunting wealth, and walked around ostentatiously.

…………

"Fellow Daoist, I greatly admire the Seven Star Sword at your waist. I wonder if you would be willing to part with it?"

"I am Ling Tian from the Seven Absolute Sword Sect."

Ling Tian smiled broadly, glancing at the Seven Star Sword at Pei Si's waist, a greedy glint in his eyes.

"What a coincidence, I think you are too, fellow Daoist." Pei Si smiled slightly.

Upon hearing this, Ling Tian's smile froze, and a chill ran down his spine. Could this person have homosexual tendencies?

Pei Si put away the Seven Star Sword and held the famous sword that Fifth Lingxun had given him.

"Ling Tian, ​​I don't know what's wrong with you cultivators on the mountain? Are you used to living a life of luxury? Why can't you get rid of this habit of asking for everything?" Pei Si said with a half-smile.

"Zangetsu Tenshou!"

Without hesitation, Pei Si unleashed a sword strike.

"How dare you!" Ling Tian's expression changed as he saw Pei Si draw his sword, and he was about to get angry.

Trying to compete with him, a true disciple of the Seven Absolute Sword Sect, in swordsmanship is like an ant trying to shake a tree—laughable and overestimating his own abilities!

The sword energy, shaped like a black crescent moon, swept past at lightning speed.

Ling Tian was about to draw his sword.

The sword energy was already upon them.

puff.

The crescent-shaped sword energy pierced through Ling Tian's body, leaving a line of blood appearing between his brows.

Ling Tian fell.

Pei Si shook his head; there wasn't a single one who could fight.

"Refine them into a raging army," Pei Si whispered.

"How boring," Pei Si remarked.

"Why don't we go and look for traces of the cultivators from the Tai Xuan Fu Dao Palace?"

Pei Si summoned Han Yan.

"My lord," Han Yan said respectfully, clasping her hands in greeting.

"Do the cultivators of your sect have means of communication with each other?"
