Honghuang: It makes sense that there are four Sanqing, right?

This little fellow is so gifted; if I, this old Taoist, give him some proper training, he will surely surpass Yun Zhongzi and outshine Zhen Yuanzi in the future.

At that time... I, the old Taoist, will be second only to the leader in the Chan Sect, and I will make that annoying Zhen Yuanzi bow and pay his respects to me every time he sees me!

Thinking about it, Randeng couldn't help but chuckle, his face crinkling with wrinkles, which made Xiao Xuqing feel uneasy.

It seems that Ran Deng is following his second brother's lead now. Although I don't really like the many rules of the Chan Sect, there shouldn't be any major problems, right?

With their own thoughts, Ran Deng waved his hand, dressed Xu Qing, and then carried him to Kunlun Mountain.

After this period of development, even though Yuanshi Tianzun was very reluctant to accept disciples, thanks to Randeng's efforts, the number of people in the Chan Sect has increased dramatically.

Currently, Yuanshi has eighteen direct disciples and dozens of nominal disciples. After Zhenyuanzi joined the Chan Sect, he also selected some talented people from Wanshou Mountain to cultivate here. Randeng also has more than a dozen disciples. Of course, with Xiao Xuqing's talent, he will definitely be left to Yuanshi.

In addition, each of the three had two disciples, bringing the total number of people on Kunlun Mountain to nearly a hundred, creating a bustling scene far exceeding any previous era.

Xu Qing looked down into the distance from the lamp in Ran Deng's arms. Who would have thought that there would be smoke rising from the Kunlun Mountains?

Zhen Yuanzi's disciples are a little less disciplined in their conduct. Some of them have weak Daoist resolve, or whose Daoist resolve is inherently hedonistic. They often cannot resist their cravings and hunt spirit birds and wild beasts on the mountain to roast and eat.

Yuanshi was initially somewhat dissatisfied and discussed it with Zhenyuanzi. The final result was that he could eat, but only in designated places, and the number of times he could eat was limited.

Returning to this familiar place, he witnessed the changes of time and the transformation of the landscape. Xu Qing, having shed his innate form, was even more emotional and couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. However, he was genuinely happy about the changes in Kunlun Mountain.

It's good to have popularity. With popularity, you won't be bored, and you'll experience emotions much faster.

Ran Deng was completely unaware of Xu Qing's thoughts. He only saw Xu Qing looking at the Kunlun Mountains creaking and groaning, a smile playing on his lips. He found it cute and was somewhat happy.

As expected of a prodigy born with extraordinary phenomena, his Dao heart came even earlier than his enlightenment.

Randeng thought Xu Qing was happy because he had come to the sage's temple and felt the Daoist energy.

Burning Lamp was already in the late Quasi-Saint stage and was close to breaking through, so he moved extremely fast and soon arrived at Jade Void Palace.

"Master, Ran Deng requests an audience."

In front of the Jade Void Palace, there were two Daoist boys who were dozing off. One was a woman, whose original form was a white crane in the sky, and the other was a man, whose original form was a white deer treading on snow.

Although Yuanshi disliked demons, he regarded these auspicious demons with special regard. When he encountered them during his travels in the prehistoric world, he was delighted and took them as his disciples.

Both young Taoist boys were exquisitely beautiful. They were startled by the sound of the lamp being lit. The white crane boy stood up and pouted.

"Vice Master Ran Deng, you scared me to death! Please wait a moment, I'll go and report right away."

After complaining, she saw Xu Qing in Ran Deng's arms and felt a mix of joy and indifference.

"Is this another apprentice being found for the master? This one is much cuter than the last one."

"Yes, yes."

Randeng doted on the two adorable young Taoist disciples and didn't take their somewhat disrespectful words to heart.

Holding Xu Qing, the two waited for a while before hearing a majestic and vast voice.

"Go in!"

I never expected that my second brother would act so arrogantly when he was alone in Kunlun Mountain.

Xu Qing couldn't help but complain, and then he was taken to the Jade Void Palace by the excited Ran Deng.

"Master, during my travels through the primordial world, I discovered another child destined to be with my Chan Sect. Please take a look."

"good."

Sitting upright on the futon with his eyes closed, Yuanshi swept his whisk, and a cloud of auspiciousness appeared, lifting Xu Qing to his feet and bringing him to a steady stop.

"Fellow Daoist Ran Deng, you've already found me six disciples. If another one comes along, perhaps it's best to decline. I'm really quite tired."

Yuan Shi said this, but the smile on his lips couldn't be hidden. It has to be said that most of the disciples that Randeng found were indeed exceptionally talented.

If we were to rank Yuanshi's disciples by their talents, aside from Li Xuan, who was personally accepted by Yuanshi, the second to sixth were all found by Randeng. This achievement is simply terrifying.

Moreover, these top six are all sages!

It's unclear where Randeng found the reincarnation of Lao Deng, but Yuanshi couldn't help but wonder if it was related to his original body, the coffin lamp, and that finding a reincarnation had a miraculous effect.

However, Randeng's achievements were remarkable, giving him confidence to surpass Lingbao. Therefore, Yuanshi was willing to grant Randeng the position of vice leader and share the fortune of the Chan Sect.

Now that Ran Deng has sent another one, Yuan Shi couldn't help but feel a little expectant.

"The Master's teachings are correct. I have made mistakes. However, all living beings suffer and need the guidance of a sage to escape the sea of ​​suffering. I humbly beg the sage to have mercy on the world."

Randeng understood Yuanshi's thoughts perfectly well, and immediately lowered his head, looking as if he had confessed his sins.

"Fellow Daoist Ran Deng is right. As a sage, one should bear the responsibility of educating the world."

As he spoke, Yuanshi continued to work with his hands.

Because Randeng often brought disciples with him, and Yuanshi himself occasionally traveled the prehistoric world to take on disciples, each time he would use his qi to probe the inner body, which always caused some trouble.

Therefore, Yuanshi invented a minor spell that could directly reveal the recipient's talent through light.

The best is the purple-gold radiance, which is currently only possessed by Yunzhong in the Chan Sect. The next best is the golden radiance, which is the level of the other five brought by Randeng.

In theory, anyone with a golden aura or higher has the potential to become a saint.

However, the probability is extremely low. For example, if Burning Lamp were to investigate, he would probably be above Purple Gold, but it is still unimaginable that he could become a saint.

The reason for this is that, on the path after becoming a Quasi-Saint, the importance of affinity and mental capacity has become greater than that of innate talent.

Below that are purple, blue, green, and white, with the highest achievement decreasing in that order. White is the last color, since even the Golden Immortal realm is out of reach, so it's not within the scope of Yuanshi's consideration and therefore has no color.

As soon as Yuanshi had a thought, Xu Qing felt a warmth in his body and began to glow. His whole body shimmered with purple-gold light, revealing him to be a prodigy who was no less than Yunzhong!

"Okay, okay, okay!"

"This child is destined for my Chan Sect; I will take him in!"

Yuanshi exclaimed "Good!" three times. The purple-gold talent originally belonged only to Yun Zhongzi, and now that he had recruited another person, even he was somewhat excited.

Lingbao, it seems you're destined to lose this round!

Unfortunately, my fourth brother went to Chaos and will not live to see this day. However, the four realms are deeply connected by cause and effect. Since I have no feeling, I suppose my fourth brother should be alright.

Yuanshi's thoughts drifted further and further away until a single sentence from Randeng pulled him back: "Please, Master, bestow upon him a Taoist name."

Oh, right, there's also important business.

The primordial atmosphere was solemn, and the tone was calm.

"Where did you find this child?"

"In a forest, he was alone on the ground, and I knew it from his crying."

Ran Deng told a lie; he couldn't very well tell him that he had stepped on it and only then realized it.

"Wood represents green, and hearing represents truth."

"Let's name this child Qingdi."
