I was favored by the evil god, and I became a white-bone bodhisattva.

He felt embarrassed when his true identity was exposed.

"Haha, we were initiated together back then. I remember you had a talent for alchemy."

The foundation-building monk shook his head and said, "You've already left, why are you back now? Although I didn't bother with you back then, you came to me on your own, so you still have to be punished."

Upon hearing this, Ling Huanzhen immediately took off the bamboo basket he was carrying.

"My fellow brothers, if I offer these things to my master, maybe I can make amends for my mistakes?"

Oh?

A monk casually lifted the cloth covering the bamboo basket, and what he saw was a piece of Ganoderma lucidum the size of a washbasin!

His eyes nearly popped out of his head and he quickly squatted down to take a closer look.

"Where did you get these herbs?"

Ling Huanzhen smiled without saying anything. After seeing this, everyone discussed it for a while and decided to report the matter to the sect leader.

Not long after, due to a basket of rare medicinal herbs, Bian Ding personally received this former outer disciple.

"..."

Sipping tea and looking at the smiling Huazhen cultivator in front of him, Ling Huanzhen couldn't help feeling a little dazed for a moment.

Because of what the six-eyed woman said back then, in Ling Huanzhen's mind, immortal cultivators are all arrogant and self-respecting, and even out of touch with the world.

But in reality, can a mere basket of medicine make the master welcome you with a smile?

Although, those are indeed very precious medicinal materials, but, but...

"What are you doing here? You don't really want to be an outer disciple again, do you?"

of course not!

Ling Huanzhen came back to his senses instantly. While adjusting his humble mentality, he slowly said, "Master, I came here to ask for a pill recipe from the sect."

"What prescription?"

"As long as it's a prescription that can prolong life, I can give it to you."

Prolong life?

How dare you think!

Bian Ding almost laughed out loud, but then he thought, this person is not even a cultivator, so it is normal for him not to understand these things.

"There is no elixir in the world that can prolong life!" he said firmly.

.....

There's none?

Ling Haozhen was really unwilling and disappointed at first, but he could only settle for the next best thing: "A pill formula that can replenish energy and strengthen the body will also work. Of course, it has to be better than the one I created."

As he spoke, Ling Huanzhen handed the recipe of Xiaohuandan to Bian Ding.

"This recipe is good. You really have some talent for alchemy."

Bian Ding sighed a few words and was about to nod, when suddenly something happened to him.

"I won't pass on my recipes to anyone, but you can exchange them for herbs. One basket of herbs for one furnace of elixirs, no cheating, what do you think?"

The so-called immortal cultivator is so mercenary? !

Ling Huanzhen's worldview was completely shattered. He was completely speechless as he looked at the sanctimonious Bian Ding.

"Well, if you have any difficulties, you can exchange half a basket of medicine for a furnace of pills. We are family, so we can discuss everything."

Am I family again?

The corner of Ling Huanzhen's mouth twitched, and then he nodded with a smile.

At this moment, he really had an impulse, that is, the next time he came, he must have soldiers lead the way and create a big battle.

What immortal cultivator? I, Ling Huanzhen, am a first-rank Taoist official, the [Immortal Feathered Priest]. When you see me, why don’t you kneel down and kowtow to me immediately!

Of course, although it is impulsive, it cannot be done in reality.

After all, there are all kinds of elixir recipes in Danding Sect, and there are many alchemy masters.

If His Majesty really notices this sect, what advantages will it have in the future?

'...'

"But it's really strange. Since the immortal cultivators are not what I imagined, why don't they serve in the palace?"

.....

"I will start refining the elixir now. You can go down the mountain and come back in five days."

"Follow the master's order"

After Ling Huanzhen bowed respectfully, he left with mixed feelings.

"The medicines this man brought are not something you can buy with money. Go down the mountain first to see if he has contacted anyone. If you can't find out where he is right away, wait for him to get the pills in five days, and then follow him secretly to investigate."

"Yes"

Bian Ding didn't even start refining the elixir, so he certainly didn't have any elixir for longevity, but he had handfuls of elixirs that were more effective than Xiaohuandan!

He meditated and gathered energy until late at night, and several elders who had gone down the mountain to investigate came to report.

"Master, he acted alone and has not yet found anything useful."

"Well, then..."

Boom --

Suddenly, a muffled thunder sounded, interrupting the words of the Huazhen cultivator.

Bian Ding felt inexplicably frightened, and soon his ominous premonition was confirmed.

Boom --

There was another earth-shattering bang, and all the cultivators below the Pupa Dan level on Danxia Peak fell to the ground with blood coming out of their seven orifices.

Bian Ding, with a pale face, led the elders to run out and saw that there was thunder in the sky and an infinitely terrifying force was about to judge the Danding Sect.

"The Heavenly Master teaches the Supreme Thunder Method? This kind of majesty must be performed by the Heavenly Master himself."

"Why? Why!"

As Bian Ding roared in despair, thunders fell one after another from the sky.

Boom --

Chapter 037: Destiny

Zhao Tiangang sat cross-legged on the clean thatched bed.

Although he had been thrown into the Heavenly Prison, the jailer did not dare to neglect this former Heavenly Master in the slightest.

The cell where Zhao Tiangang was located was not only in an excellent location, it also received sunlight from outside every day and was even equipped with all kinds of daily necessities.

In addition, every meal has three dishes and a soup. If an ordinary person stayed here, he would not want to leave even if you chased him away.

"Mr. Zhao, someone is here to visit you."

As the sound rang out, the endless phantoms of thunder in Zhao Tiangang's eyes disappeared instantly.

He slowly climbed down from the bed and smiled gratefully at the prison boss who walked quickly outside the iron bars: "Thank you for your help."

"No need, just chat slowly, I'll be waiting outside."

After the jailer left, Wang Tiancheng fell to his knees.

"Master, thank you for your hard work! I am contacting all the masters to jointly submit a petition, asking His Majesty to forgive your sins."

"Okay, okay, he won't eavesdrop. Stand up and talk."

Wang Tiancheng stopped sobbing, stood up and looked at his mentor with a worried look on his face.

"How do I look?" Zhao Tiangang asked with a smile.

"Master, you have a fake face, so I can't tell your expression."

Seeing Zhao Tiangang's stern face, Wang Tiancheng said helplessly: "Dark clouds are covering the head, the forehead is black, and the face has the look of death."

Even if Zhao Tiangang could cast spells across states and destroy the Danding Sect at will, once the emperor threw him into the Heavenly Prison, he would never be able to get out for the rest of his life unless there was a turnaround.

Even now, life or death depends on the old emperor's decision.

This is the authority of the Emperor who governs the Nine Provinces internally and defends against the Miao Region and Luosha externally!

"Don't panic, this is the third death calamity for the master."

Although he said there was no need to panic, Wang Tiancheng outside the iron prison was obviously panicking.

He forced a smile and said, "Master is very wise. He managed to get through the previous two fatal disasters with ease. This time, it should be OK, right?"

"How can I be calm? I would have died the last two times if I had made a mistake, and I am even less certain this time. I can only say that if the crown prince does not ascend the throne soon, His Majesty will definitely get rid of me."

Zhao Tiangang said in an inexplicable tone: "After all, my Tianshi Sect has a great influence in Dajin, and he has long been wary of it."

.....

Zhao Tiangang took out a small token from the thatched bed and handed it to his disciple through the iron bars.

This item is called [Tianshi Order]. Even though the title of Tianshi has been taken back by the emperor, it still represents the authority of the Tianshi Sect.

Zhao Tiangang now handed the master's token to Wang Tiancheng, who suddenly felt ominous.

"Master..."

"You are also involved in my plans. If I, the master, unfortunately pass away, you must shoulder some of the burdens for me."

Seeing his disciple in awe, Zhao Tiangang was silent for a moment and then reminded him, "My Tianshi Sect is not alone. Many Taoist friends have made up their minds to destroy the power of the Emperor. The behavior of some Taoist friends may disgust you, but you must clarify the primary and secondary contradictions and avoid internal fighting at the critical moment."

"Yes!"

Wang Tiancheng calmed himself down and continued to listen to his master's teachings.

"In addition, when you take charge of a sect in the future, you must not blindly trust those with extraordinary cultivation. Even the immortals who have truly ascended to heaven in broad daylight can make mistakes, let alone the rest."

Since these words involved the founder of his religion, Wang Tiancheng could only smile bitterly.

Of course, deep down in his heart, he actually agreed very much with Master’s words.

When Emperor Taizu of Jin was rising up, he received help from the founder of the Tianshi Sect many times, and the two sides formed a great bond.

Therefore, after the Great Jin Dynasty unified the nine provinces, the Tianshi Sect naturally became the state religion.

The founder of the Tianshi Sect was so pleased that he completed the unprecedented feat of ascending to heaven in broad daylight!

Up to this point, everything seems to be fine.

However, the good days of Tianshi Sect did not last long. After Emperor Wu conquered Miaojiang and Luosa and vigorously promoted the imperial examination system, the whole country gradually won over.

When everyone acknowledged the [Mandate of Heaven] of the Great Jin, the authority of the Emperor was officially consolidated!

.....

When Emperor Taizu of Jin ruled a state, the country's destiny could only be protected by a few people.

But when the Nine Provinces were unified, important officials in the court were basically immune to the adverse effects of magic.

At this time, all the cultivators in the world, including the founder of the Tianshi Sect, did not realize the seriousness of the matter.

Important officials are immune to spells?

?i It doesn’t matter at all!

The Tianshi Sect and the major sects can completely undermine the imperial power from bottom to top, and within a hundred years the emperor will become a complete puppet.

But no one would have expected that once the Emperor's power was consolidated, everything would change dramatically.

Emperor Wu trampled all the cultivators in the world under his feet. Even the Tianshi Sect was at his beck and call.

'If the master is really omniscient and omnipotent.'

"The authority of the Emperor will never be allowed to appear, and my Tianshi Sect will never fall to this level."

Wang Tiancheng sighed secretly, then bowed deeply to his mentor.

"The Great Jin Dynasty is as old as the Qilin. I firmly believe that there is no eternal dynasty in the world. This time, the destiny is in my hands."

"What a great saying! Destiny is in my hands!"
