Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune Starts From Tianshi Mansion

Chapter 550 549. Continuing the spirit of Longhu Mountain (two-in-one chapter)

"Losing for a while doesn't mean losing for the rest of your life."

Zhuo Baojie was as casual as he was in front of his direct disciples, speaking honestly and politely: "But as of now, we have indeed lost."

He certainly knew the implication of An Buzheng's words.

Theoretically, the leader of a faction may not necessarily be the best person or the strongest among his peers, especially when the inheritance is orderly, the sect has a deep foundation, and there are many teachers who can preside over a stable situation.

In the so-called selection of talents, in addition to considering the master's cultivation strength, it is also necessary to consider whether other aspects are suitable.

In addition to character, this includes not only sect governance, popularity among internal and external people, but also the ability to teach and cultivate the next generation.

Only in relatively extreme situations, when top masters are urgently needed to support the portal and unite people's hearts, will they only look at the strength of the monks' cultivation and put the rest aside for the time being.

For example, when Tang Xiaotang, the 35th Heavenly Master, took over the throne, it was such a special situation.

Even so, before and after Tang Xiaotang took over the Tianshi Mansion, he also made great achievements such as recovering the Tianshi Sword and expelling and purging the Li family. There was no shortage of meritorious deeds both inside and outside.

After he took over, he was not arbitrary and did not mind being assisted by a group of highly skilled elders.

In the past, Tang Tianshi might have had problems of one kind or another behind the scenes, but he never made any mistakes in public.

She has made outstanding achievements during her term of office, so when she is mentioned inside and outside the Tianshi Mansion, most people respect her.

In a relatively stable situation, we do not take cultivation strength as the only reference standard, but comprehensively consider all aspects to finally decide on the candidate. This is not a time when history has failed.

Let’s not talk about Tianshi Mansion’s own situation. The Shushan sect next door had Fu Dongsen and Chen Donglou as precedents in the past.

Naturally, with the headmaster Tianjun Lei Jun still alive, no matter whether Chi Haifeng or An Buzheng takes over the Tianshi Mansion in the future, Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion will remain prosperous.

The reason why An Buzheng is speaking today is not just because Chi Haifeng first achieved the Nine Heavens Mahayana realm himself.

It's because, while the other party surpasses him in basic understanding and qualifications, and improves his cultivation faster than him, he also contributes more to Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion in other aspects.

Over the years, An Buzheng has also received a lot of job experience from his master, and he has accomplished all of them extremely well.

But An Buzheng knew best that his main focus was always on practicing seriously and concentrating on improving his realm and strength.

Neither Tianshi Zhuo Baojie nor anyone else in the house objected to similar matters, and were happy to see it come to fruition.

The mission assigned to An Buzheng was mainly for him to gain experience and benefit his practice, so as to avoid being isolated from the world and working behind closed doors.

But the same is true for Chi Haifeng.

In fact, compared to An Buzheng, he was more interested in related things.

Chi Haifeng is full of curiosity and desire to explore all things, phenomena and dharma in the world, and is willing to communicate and interact with others.

In recent years, he has been involved in the improvement and improvement of Taoist talismans, the introduction of new ones, and the refining of various magical weapons and elixirs.

As time went by, his reputation inside and outside the Tianshi Mansion increased.

Although he is not as calm and steady as he is in life, his outgoing and positive attitude can also unite a large number of people's hearts and make many achievements in Longhu Mountain.

Although no one has ever said it, in the eyes of many people, the current situation is already like this:

Not only did Chi Haifeng win in terms of qualifications and cultivation, but his contribution to the sect and popularity among people inside and outside the palace were also becoming more and more impeccable.

An Buzheng is also popular among the public, but apart from the impression that he has a calmer temperament, how much of this is because he is the true successor of the Heavenly Master and the direct descendant of the headmaster?

No one took the initiative to mention it.

But An Buzheng would ask himself this question.

In particular, he has devoted his main energy to improving his cultivation level so that he can barely keep up with Chi Haifeng. However, the gap between the two sides has finally become unstoppable and is getting bigger and bigger.

In the initial stage of spiritual practice, it is not unusual to focus on improving your realm first, and then expand upon it when your realm is high.

An Buzheng's great uncle Tang Xiaotang and second great uncle Han Xiaofei both followed this approach.

However, Chi Haifeng is not.

He has been involved in a wide range of subjects since he was a child.

But it did not specifically slow down the improvement of his cultivation level.

"Junior Brother Chi seems to be riding a boat along the water. His attention is not on steering the boat, but on the surrounding mountains and rivers. However, the boat is still moving quickly on the water."

An Buzheng smiled mockingly to himself: "The disciple is the one who ignored a lot of scenery along the way and rowed hard to catch up with him, but gradually failed to catch up."

Zhuo Baojie: "Well, you have also realized that there is a peer who does not need to be imitated, but is more like your master than you."

An Buzheng couldn't laugh or cry when his master joked about black history: "Master, please spare this disciple. I have already known my mistake."

Zhuo Baoyue nodded: "As a teacher, I naturally know that you have done nothing wrong over the years..."

He calmly looked at his disciple: "In that case, there is no need to put so much pressure on yourself."

An Buzheng: "Yes, my disciple has now understood this truth."

Zhuo Baojie smiled: "I don't know how many people look at you the same way you look at Master Nephew Chi."

Whether it's imitating Lei Jun or competing with Chi Haifeng.

An Buzheng's attainments in the Yuanci Flying Sword were also very high, and his head-on fighting skills were almost as good as Chi Haifeng's at the same level.

Although he is not as good as his opponent, he possesses both the Yin and Yang twin thunders of Nine Heavens Divine Thunder and Xuanxiao Immortal Thunder. The two of them together support the Liangyi Tianyuan Law. Impeccable.

Zhuo Baojie asked himself, if he could only defeat his apprentice with just one single magnetic flying sword, it was only because of the overwhelming difference in realm.

Under the same realm, Chi Haifeng, Feng Ting, and Cheng Rongrong faced An Bizheng, and Yuanci Feijian also had no advantage.

The Yuan Magnetic Flying Sword is just one of the many methods that An Buzheng has practiced, and it is not even his strongest point.

The Dharma Elephant of the Dou Mu Star God, the Dharma Elephant of the Heavenly Eclipse Star Abyss, the Dharma Elephant of the Nine Heavens Thunder Ancestor, and the Dharma Elephant of the Xuanxiao Lei Ancestor... With the blessing of many Dharma Ribbons, the physical body has powerful life skills, the spirit and spirit are tenacious, the life and life are intertwined, and both Dharma and Weaponry are available. , the body shape comes and goes like electricity, and combined with the Yuan Magnetic Flying Sword, it can reach far and near. At the same time, because the Liangyi Immortal Body's mana recovers very quickly, this is An Buzheng's relatively complete actual combat state.

In fact, the same is true for Chi Haifeng.

Yuan Magnetic Flying Sword is just one of his hobbies.

He has the ability to guide Shushan sword cultivators in this aspect, but the one who is best at it is not the Yuanci Flying Sword.

The most powerful thing about Chi Haifeng is the life kung fu itself, which is constantly integrated and refined from complexity to simplicity.

If not, how could they be regarded as the continuation of Longhu Mountain's destiny?

"If you don't put pressure on yourself, why leave? If you want to change your previous style, you can do it anywhere."

Zhuo Baojie looked at An Buzheng: "Are you too concerned about the outside world's opinions and evaluations?

Or are you unwilling to give up after all and want to change your thinking and environment and try again for a chance? "

An Buzheng: "This disciple is indeed determined to change his thinking and environment, but it is not for the purpose of making a comeback and turning defeat into victory."

Contrary to speculation by some outsiders, he and Chi Haifeng actually had a very good personal relationship.

Among their peers, the two of them had the most exchanges and discussions.

After a brief pause, An Buzheng said softly: "Disciple has a vague feeling in his heart that this path is more suitable for his own practice."

Hearing this, Zhuo Baojie nodded: "You have reached the eighth level of heaven and have understood yourself clearly. Since you have this feeling, you must be quite different.

But there is no need to rush. After surviving the catastrophe from the eighth to the ninth heaven, in addition to practicing meditation, you should also gain more experience and accumulation in the mansion.

Founding a sect is not as easy as being alone, but don't think about things too simply. "

An Buzheng solemnly said: "Master taught me that I should keep it in mind. Junior Brother Chi invited me to travel around the world of Confucianism. I also intend to travel to various places in the future before making a decision. As you and Master have always taught us, I People who practice Taoism should follow the destiny and act according to the circumstances.”

Zhuo Baojie nodded slightly: "Very good."

After nodding, he sighed again: "Hey, in the future, when Xuwu leaves, I will inevitably have a lot of emptiness in my lap."

An Buzheng said seriously: "Disciples are also happy to see more junior brothers and junior sisters."

Zhuo Baojie waved his paws in disinterest.

How can you be so lucky to find a disciple of the Two-Year Immortal Body to accompany you...

………………

Beyond the vast world, there is a vast universe.

There is something special somewhere among the lonely and sparse stars.

At first glance, it looks like shining stars.

But within the starlight, there is a different world.

A vast expanse of white, but not snow, together form a white Taoist palace with unclear outlines.

In the Dao Palace, there was a looming green fire.

There were two people sitting opposite each other, a man and a woman, both wearing traditional shaman costumes.

At this time, the void in the outer universe seemed to shake.

Then there seemed to be a dark star map appearing out of thin air in the middle of the white Taoist palace, and a middle-aged scholar stepped out of it.

The man and woman who were meditating behind closed doors opened their eyes at the same time, stood up and greeted each other: "Master Shuofeng Mountain is here."

Lian Feng, the master of Shuofeng Mountain, returned the greeting: "Lian, I'm sorry for bothering you."

The three of them entered the Dao Palace hall together.

Lian Feng looked at the back hall: "Tianjun is still meditating?"

The two Witch King Ruan Qiao and Wang Dianchen, one female and one male, both said: "Not bad."

After the three of them sat down in the white hall, Lian Feng shook his head slightly: "Lian failed to fulfill his mission. This trip failed to find the other half of the lost map of the universe."

Ruan Qiao: "No matter what the outcome is, thank you to Master Shuofeng Mountain for your hard work."

Lian Feng took a long breath.

Although the outer void universe can exist in the fairyland masters, it is not a livable place.

Unless you have the intention to wander around and explore, or as a last resort, no one would be willing to stay in it for a long time.

Fortunately, Gao Tiansui is not only the third-level Heavenly Lord of the Taoist Fulu Sect in the Immortal Realm, but also the legendary Taisu Taoist.

Only in this way can we create a safe place in the vast void outside the universe, and even practice here.

Here he has been in retreat for many years.

It's just a pity that if a complete map of the universe could be obtained, Gao Tianjun would probably have achieved the Taoist level of enlightenment comparable to that of a Confucian saint.

He is a genius. Even though he has had many twists and turns in the past years, like Yan Aoyun, Wu Hailin, Zheng Baiyu and others, he still has the opportunity to continue to make breakthroughs even if he only relies on his own practice.

It's just that this takes quite some time.

After leaving the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Gao Tian then came here to meditate and practice in seclusion, completely ignoring foreign affairs. He did not miss half of the universe map he had obtained.

After using this half of the universe map to lead Lian Feng to leave the world of Confucianism and travel to and from the vast void outside the universe, half of the universe map was combined with the Dao palace to further stabilize the Dao palace.

Lian Feng, Ruan Qiao, and Wang Dianchen can also meditate in it.

As for Lianfeng, he knew very well that without the opportunity brought about by Yuzhou Zheng Baiyu in the world of Confucianism, his hope of reaching the realm of a Confucian saint would have been extremely slim, even slim.

But Gao Tiansui had a chance.

Whether it's for the old members of Tiangong or for himself, Lian Feng hopes that Gao Tiansui can succeed as soon as possible.

Now that Yan Aoyun has become a Confucian Saint Master, and Lei Jun, Zhang Wantong, Xu Yuanzhen, Tang Xiaotang and others are following closely behind him, even if Gao Tian succeeds, he may not have a chance to make a comeback.

But if it doesn't succeed, all hope will be lost.

Even if you succeed too late, it won’t work.

Lian Feng, like Gao Tiansui, is determined and unyielding for his vision.

But he was also worried that Gao Tian would give up on searching for a complete universe map and other opportunities, and instead concentrate on using his own meditation to attack the realm of cave truth above the cave. Will he succeed and when will he succeed?

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

However, when he came here this time, as a third-level Confucian prime king in the fairyland, he quietly felt the flow of immortality and spiritual power in the Taoist palace, and Lianfeng's mind gradually calmed down.

He could vaguely sense that Gao Tian was constantly moving forward on a road.

Although the road is still long, the end is looming and not out of reach.

Lian Feng looked at it and his mind was set.

Ruan Qiao and Wang Dianchen also waited patiently.

The Great Tribulation War at the end of the Han Dynasty in the past had a negative impact on both parties involved.

If there hadn't been that battle, Gao Tiansui would definitely have taken the step towards the truth before Zhuang Zheng, He Ying and others.

Afterwards, he was delayed in Biluo for thousands of years, and at that time, the three realms of heaven, earth, and man were all torn apart. Even if Gao Tiansui ignored the others and recovered early, it would be difficult to go further in Biluo.

Biluo was unsealed, and everyone in the Tiangong's old family saw the light of day again. Unfortunately, under the joint action of Lei Jun, Zhang Wantong, Zheng Baiyu and others, the vast world of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths was no longer conducive to them gaining a foothold.

Fortunately, Gao Tian was still calm and unaffected by his mood, and continued his own practice.

If he can succeed and go further, it will benefit Lian Feng, Ruan Qiao, and Wang Dianchen who receive his talisman.

The three of them sat quietly in the white palace, all closing their eyes and silently recuperating themselves.

……………

Time flies, years pass.

Lei Jun celebrated his 184th birthday.

This summer, a new martial arts master who opened the gate of immortality was added to the vast world of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Zhou Pu, the king of the Later Han Dynasty, achieved further success.

The news spread and attracted attention from all sides.

The Tang imperial family was still stable.

No matter what Zhang Wantong's true thoughts are in her heart, officially she is still the contemporary Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and she has no intention of abdicating the throne.

If the members of the Zhangtang clan were worried, it was because since Zhang Wantong and Zhang Hui, neither the Zhang family nor the Shangguan family had produced top-notch successors.

But not only Zhang Wantong, but also Zhang Hui didn't care about Zhang Tang's imperial family.

Currently, he has an extremely close relationship with the clan, and the person with the highest personal cultivation strength is still Shangguan Yunbo.

But when he reached the ninth level of Heavenly Martial Saint, he was already over two hundred years old.

Under normal circumstances, the perfect state of the fifth level of the Nine Heavens is his end point. Unless there is a serious accident, there is basically no possibility of becoming a martial immortal.

What's more, in the same realm, he is no match for Zhou Pu.

The main reason why the Tang Dynasty paid attention to Zhou Pu's achievement as a martial arts immortal was that besides the clan, they also had Shen Qubing, Chu Yu, and Fang Yue who opened the immortal gate one after another. At the same time, Xiao Chunhui, Meng Shaojie and others also It is closely related to the Tang Dynasty.

Even if we don't make any external expansion, we should be safe if we maintain our success.

In comparison, the Han Dynasty was truly shocked.

Their relationship with the Later Han Dynasty was already awkward, so they were naturally more concerned about it now.

Fortunately, Zhou Pu became a martial arts immortal and did not make any more moves. Everything was safe, and some people were slowly relieved of their worries.

"Although His Royal Highness the King of the Later Han Dynasty has no intention of abdicating the throne, he is willing to live in the realm permanently. Most of the affairs of the country are entrusted to Geng Yuanyan and Gu Muqing." Wang Guiyuan talked with Lei Jun about the recent rumors he heard in the Youdu of the realm. .

Lei Jun nodded: "Before the King of the Later Han Dynasty went into seclusion to challenge the disaster of the natural chasm leading to the fairyland, he established the crown prince of the East Palace."

Representatives from Tianshi Mansion, Zhenwu Temple, and other dynasties and holy places were invited to watch the ceremony.

"There are also important ministers from the Han Dynasty." Wang Guiyuan smiled and sighed: "Li Feiyang layman."

Lei Jun nodded slightly.

In the past, Li Feiyang, the most outstanding young son of the Li family in Suzhou, quickly achieved the status of a great scholar in the world.

Up to now, he is not only the pillar of the family, but also one of the mainstays of the Han Dynasty.

Among the monks who had close contacts in the Han Dynasty, Ke Lang and Xiang Chengyuan of Kongsang Didu were getting older and had lost their vigor, so it was difficult for them to get further opportunities.

And Li Feiyang is the Han monk who is closest to the fairyland, even before Yu Boyan and others of Shushan Sect.

"In terms of Buddhism, it's the Heavenly Tree." When Wang Guiyuan and Brother Lei Jun talked about this matter, they couldn't help but feel dumbfounded.

The orthodox Buddhist sect of the nine heavens and ten earths has been inherited from several major holy places. Although many talents have emerged in recent years and have gradually recovered their vitality, none of them are particularly outstanding and can reach the golden realm in a short period of time.

Several eminent Buddhist monks, such as Guangshu and Xinguan, have advanced in cultivation, but they are all getting older.

Relatively young masters such as the distant abbot of Bodhi Temple, although they have reached the realm of the ninth heavenly Dharmakaya, are still far away from the Golden Body Venerable.

At the end of the day, the person who has now completed the fifth level of the Dharma Body in the Nine Heavens and is beginning to approach the attainment of the Golden Body is... the future Maitreya of the former Great Understanding Lotus Sect, Monk Tianshu.

Referring to the previous works of Wang Guiyuan and Hui Yin, it is true that people are speechless.

The White Lotus Sect remains low-key, and the news is only known to a limited number of people. If it is announced to the public, it is difficult to say how the authentic Buddhist successors such as Yuan, Guangshu, and Xin Guan will react.

"What do Master Tianshu think?" Lei Jun asked.

Wang Guiyuan: "It's no big deal. He and Master Jianhai are currently paying more attention to the situation in the World of Demons."

Lei Jun nodded slightly.

The former great master of Lotus Sect, Monk Jianhai, was also getting older.

Monk Tianshu is the monk who was related to the Ming Dynasty in the past and is now the closest to the fairyland.

Although Luo Hai has Pixiu Kong's care, there is still a long way to go.

As for Confucianism, although Zhou Mingzhe succeeded in becoming a saint, he was "watched" by the three Taoist immortals, and was finally killed by Mu Chunyang himself.

A step behind him, Chao Feng, who was still studying behind closed doors to seek breakthroughs when the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were unified, was also "watched" by a large number of top experts from the Nine Heavens in the human world after the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were unified.

In the end, Chao Feng, who was seriously injured, was killed by Yuan Qingci, the former head of Shushan Sect in Ming Dynasty.

In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, the three inherited treasures of the Shushan School, the Qiankun Sun and Moon Pot, the Xianxiao Bell, and the Duxu Shuo, were confiscated by the Ming court due to the Han Qingtao Rebellion. They were written by Chao Feng's mentor Chen Yu, the former leader of the Wu Party.

"Forget it, just cut off one of the front edges." Lei Jun nodded.

Wang Guiyuan also nodded.

Lei Jun's eyes suddenly moved slightly, and the heavenly and earthly penetrating Dharma scrolls quietly circulated in his pupils:

"Well...Kunwu Sect Leader Zhang just came to hear that Fellow Daoist Zhao has successfully escaped from seclusion."

Wang Guiyuan was also overjoyed when he heard this: "Zhao Zhenjun has returned to the void after refining his spirit?"

The Taoist Fulu sect traditionally calls monks who have reached the third level of the fairyland the Three-Day Xuanyuan Guizhen, also known as the Dongxuan Guizhen.

The monks of the third level of the Taoist Alchemy Sect's Immortal Realm are called the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, refining the gods and returning to the void.

"This is really gratifying." Wang Guiyuan sighed: "The disaster caused by the demon world and the demon dragon emperor, fortunately, it did not have a big impact on him."

Lei Jun also agreed: "Yes."

Now, a total of eighty-one years have passed since Zhao Chanyang reached the second level of fairyland.

Although the disaster was successfully resolved at first, the additional twists and turns caused his eighty years of practice to shift slightly to the "right".

"I didn't break your record, junior brother." Wang Guiyuan teased Lei Jun.

Lei Jun: "Fortunately."

Zhao Chanyang was one hundred and seventy-three years old at that time, which was slightly younger than Lei Jun's age of one hundred and seventy when he reached the third level of Immortal Realm.

When Wang Guiyuan talked about this matter, he was not making fun of Zhao Chanyang, but more of making fun of Lei Jun.

After all, Zhao Chanyang ascended to immortality at the age of seventy-two, much younger than his fellow disciples.

Lei Junneng came from behind and Shise Hegai took the greatest credit, among which Zhao Chanyang also contributed.

After chatting and laughing for a while, Lei Jun sent a reply to Kunwu to congratulate Zhao Chanyang on his return to the void, while chatting with Wang Guiyuan:

"Fellow Daoist Zhao has returned to the void. I just want to inform him of something. News has recently come back from the world of Confucianism, and the heaven over there is gradually showing signs of reappearing."

Wang Guiyuan heard this and thought thoughtfully: "Is there an approximate time already?"

Lei Jun nodded: "According to Yan Zi's judgment, it will be within twenty years at most."

Wang Guiyuan: "That's it..."

He thought of the extraterritorial demons and demon capitals on the other side of the Confucian world.

If the heavenly realm that has disappeared for many years in the Confucian world reappears, it will most likely have an impact on Tianmojing.

Regardless of whether the invasion of extraterrestrial demons will be eliminated in the future, when things come to an end, there are likely to be new changes and entanglements.

At first glance, this matter is not directly related to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths World. At best, Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang are there.

But Wang Guiyuan had another thought.

The world of Confucianism is about to undergo major changes, and Yan Aoyun will inevitably be attracted to it, and may even be involved.

As a result, the three major demons in the world of demons may have strange movements.

Except that the Hundred-Eyed Demonic Tree may be related to the demons outside the territory, the Demonic Dragon Emperor and the Great Destruction Bodhisattva will probably not directly intervene.

But taking advantage of the opportunity that Yan Aoyun was not paying attention to, it was hard to say whether they would make any side moves.
