The Dutian Lingguan Road that started from the Taoist soldiers

Chapter 39 Daoye Finalized
It took the Ying family's large dragon boat from the Sea Kingdom less than two hours to cross more than a thousand miles. When it arrived at Dongjun, the moon was at its highest point in the sky.

Wu and his entourage bid farewell to Ying's flying boat in front of the county city, bypassed the city gate and headed towards Wu's mansion on Fuyao Mountain.

A group of seventy or eighty dragon horses and thirty or forty spirit horses galloped all the way from the outskirts of Dongjun to Fuyao Mountain, as if the earth was shaking.

"This is too ostentatious and disturbing to the people!" Wu Yong frowned.

"Master Blood, please give me a ride so that I can return home soon."

Turning his head to look at the blood river that was engulfing the evil camp, and the thunder camp riding on the clouds behind him, Wu Yong asked softly.

"also may!"

The Blood Lord responded coldly, and after a moment, the hundred-foot-wide blood river surged, sweeping the hundred or sorcerers into the blood river, which then transformed into a beam of red light and flew straight towards the Wu family mansion.

No matter whether they were dragon horses or spiritual horses, or Taoist priests and sorcerers, they were all swept by the blood river and had no choice but to sink into the scarlet world. Even the three old Gangsha cultivators were unable to resist after entering the blood river.

As soon as the blood river disappeared, Lei Ying followed behind on a cloud. They arrived at the Wu residence at an unhurried pace in just a stick of incense.

"who?"

A team of Taoist soldiers wearing green-scale armor quickly stepped out from the courtyard wall, with their magic crossbows already cocked and the muzzles pointed directly at the bloody light.

"It's me!" Wu Yong took a step out from the blood light.

Soon after, the Wu family guards, the treasury, the four gardens, and more than a hundred monks from various departments were shaken out of the blood river like a sieve!
"Chen Qun, why are you here?"

Wu Yong raised his eyebrows and asked the team of Taoist soldiers.

"During the day, a large number of people were withdrawn from the mansion. You Jijiu and I discussed and decided to split the four groups of the Taoist camp into two teams to replace the Wei camp and take turns patrolling." Chen Qun put away his magic crossbow and bowed slightly to Wu Yong.

"You did a great job! Thank you for your hard work."

Wu Yong patted Chen Qun's shoulder gently, then led the Taoist guards into the mansion.

The Taoists from various tribes led their dragon horses and magical colts to the animal pens in the side yard, and the chief sorcerer of the Wu family followed closely behind Wu Yong, and nodded slightly to the team of Taoist soldiers as they passed by.

"Brother, are you back?" a soft voice sounded.

A young girl holding three sables ran to the main hall of the Wu family, half of her body hidden behind the screen, with only half of her head visible.

"Uncle is back. Did you encounter any difficulties along the way?"

Xu Miaoxi and two nuns came slowly from the back of the hall. Their voices were heard before they arrived. Two or three nuns moved to the front of the hall, wearing red hairpins and fair faces, with beautiful postures.

He glanced at the nun and thought that Xu Miaoxi really listened to advice. This won the hearts of the female Taoists in the mansion and gave him the initial capital to issue orders!

"It's okay. Lingxiu has become a much more docile and well-behaved little mink."

Wu Yong turned his head to look at the girl behind the screen and spoke gently.

The original body was a contemplative and often melancholy person, and had little interaction with this younger sister, so Wu Lingxiu was usually afraid of this melancholy and silent brother.

The conversation between the few people has not yet ended.

Among the warlocks who followed, an old steward could not hold back and interrupted the conversation of several people.

"Second Master, how did the trip to Danyang get involved in the struggle between the two counties? Was the assassin caught? What was the final outcome?"

Perhaps because he was a little anxious and confused, Mr. Lai kept asking one question after another, which seemed like he was interrogating him.

After saying this, he seemed to realize that he had overstepped the mark and quickly stopped talking.

Wu Yong was not angry when he heard this, he just glanced at the other cultivators.

"The story of the assassin ends with the Cheng family. Since the main branch of the Cheng family has been wiped out, it ends here."

"There is no need to say more about the final outcome. In short, it is the grudge between the two counties and five families. It has nothing to do with my Wu family anymore!"

The matter of Danyang came to an end, and Wu Yong was too lazy to look back on it. Even if he knew what the Jiang Xun Dao Shi was like, he could not take revenge now. It would be better to pretend that he didn't know and deal with it later.

"Also, tomorrow prepare a feast, five kinds of animals, and incense to offer to the various camp gods in the temple."

"Now that Wuxuan has joined my side branch, we have to put the ceremony of holding the bloodline ceremony on the agenda."

"Oh, by the way, Cui Ya'er has gone to the sea to lodge a letter. Send him a message tomorrow. There is no need to move any further."

"If you have nowhere to stay, you can join the Wu family. We are in need of some good men right now."

"Before next year's Cold Food Festival, I intend to take a battalion of the God of War to join the governor's expedition outside the borders. I will select more than a hundred regular soldiers and give it a try."

Although being singled out and thrown out of bounds would ruin the effort, it would still be profitable if one could gain a foothold.

In the past, the ancestors of the Wu family gradually rose to power through conquests everywhere, and it is not impossible to replicate that now.

"Ah! Brother is going too!" Wu Lingxiu exclaimed.

In the past, her grandfather, Wu, was killed in the great expedition outside the border, leaving only Old Lady Xun and her brothers and sisters in Dongjun.

Hearing that Wu Yong was going to do it again, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.

At this time, all the martial arts sorcerers were silent. They were present and understood that it was an order from the Governor of Dongzhou, and no one in the three counties and nine families could hide!

"I have the help of all the camp lords, so it's no problem."

"When it comes to conquering and killing, even ordinary mages are far inferior to me, the King of Chaos. There is no need to worry."

Wu Yong waved his hand. The matter was already settled. There was no need to say anything more. He just needed to do everything he could to increase his own weight. The commander of the Lei Camp lifted the door curtain and strode into the hall. The Blood God Son and the Skeleton Commander followed closely behind.

General Lei nodded slightly towards Wu Yong who was standing in the main hall and said:

"Tomorrow I will open the treasury and take out the medicinal materials. Now that I am awake, I will refine an external pill for you."

"From now on, you can also practice my Lingbao Waidan Dao, practice it every day, and practice to make it come true."

The biggest gain of this trip was a flawless golden elixir. If this elixir fell into the hands of others, it might just be a decent treasure.

But in the last era, in the hands of the generals of the Leiying who came from the Lingbao lineage, combined with their secret external alchemy method, it was a good thing that could lay the foundation for external alchemy.

External alchemy is the second of the four methods of Taoism. It is derived from Qigong and appeared at the same time as talismans. It is quite similar to internal alchemy yet completely different. It is an extreme Taoist method that seeks to cultivate the essence from the outside and makes good use of things.

Taking elixirs is an attempt to achieve immortality. Metal and stone are poisonous. The external alchemy method is to completely detoxify the poison and turn them into powder. After proper refining, it can be transformed into a magical elixir. The emphasis is on the word "transformation".

Cinnabar changes into cinnabar and mercury, cinnabar and mercury change into metal and stone, metal and stone turn into ashes of grass and trees. The external alchemy method changes only to seek the way of the world, which is an endless state of mutual transformation.

Refining Qi to transform it into spirit, refining spirit to return to emptiness, refining emptiness to merge with the Tao, and becoming one with the Tao is the way to attain the rank of Immortal.

It is a method between Qigong and Neidan.

"External alchemy emphasizes the two natures of transformation and reason, but the method is quite profound and others cannot master it. They often fail to eliminate the poison of the elixir, which leads to the accumulation of poison and serious harm. Those who practice this way will also perish from this way."

"You have cultivated the Mysterious Spiritual Official Dao and the Yellow Heavenly Talisman Water, opened the spiritual orifices of the Zhoutian meridians, and condensed the Seven Souls Chakra. You should be able to withstand the external alchemy method!"

At this point, General Lei couldn't help but chuckle.

"Haha! This external elixir method is the most extreme among the four methods of the immortal way. If you master it, your life will be as hard as gold and stone, and you can claim to be immortal. But if there is a mistake, the elixir that cannot cure gold and stone can actually kill people alive."

"Do you dare to practice my external alchemy method?"

If the Wu family had not fallen into decline, with thousands of years of friendship and loyalty, and if Wu Yong had not also received a small inheritance from the ancient heaven.

He would definitely not give him this external elixir method easily. Even in the Heavenly Court Era, a fully explored external elixir was hard to come by for the immortals. It was a path that countless alchemy wizards risked their lives to blaze.

“But, I heard that the external alchemy method of becoming immortal is very weak in fighting, and it is useless except for immortality!” Wu Yong seemed a little hesitant.

Ok?
Lei Jiang raised his eyebrows, glanced at him sideways, and sneered:
"You've chosen it. You lack spiritual roots and talent. You can't cultivate the Golden Elixir Dao in this era."

"You can focus on the Zhoutian Qi Souls and supplement with Waidan Dao. If you don't want to, I won't bother you!"

This bastard!

General Lei cursed inwardly, thinking that he really didn't know what was good for him. This external alchemy method was his family's secret magic method. Many Qigong practitioners had tried to obtain it but were unable to, and therefore died with regret.

If you don’t want to learn, then forget it. It would be a waste of his good intentions.

"Thank you, Lord Thunder, for the teachings! Yong has also admired this external alchemy for a long time."

Wu Yong's expression immediately changed. He bowed deeply to General Lei and spoke very sincerely.

External alchemy is also a way to become immortal, it’s better than nothing!

"Very good. From tomorrow on, you must stay in the courtyard. Take Hanshi Powder every morning, and take Wushi Powder when the sun reaches the zenith, and wait for the metal and stone energy to penetrate your muscles, bones, lungs and internal organs."

“Wait until the 49th day, when the external elixir is initially formed, drink it as the golden elixir and jade liquid, and it will turn into the returning elixir. With the help of the elixir, you will enter the second stage of refining the spirit and returning to the void, refining the void and merging with the Tao, and thus practice the false and become the true.”

"My last name was Ge. You can call me Taoist Ge."

Leiying - Commander Ge left some instructions and left the main hall to prepare the elixir recipe, quality recipe, and digestion technique!
Only Wu Yong was left there pondering and thinking over it.

a long time.

Wu Yong raised his head. The sorcerers around him were still standing aside, watching their backs. After the two camps of rampant demons showed up, it was like a guillotine was hanging over their heads. They all became alert about things they shouldn't say or hear.

"Tomorrow we have to prepare a feast for the two camp kings. At the same time, Wu Xuan also has to remember to get up early and formally sign the origin contract in the ancestral temple!"

"It's all gone."

Wu Yong waved his hand, pushed the door open and walked away first, not caring about what others did, leaving everything to the next day.

He had experienced too much in Danyang and was exhausted. He just wanted to have a good sleep!
However, it might not be so easy for the cultivators in the mansion to sleep. They were unaware of the inside story, and suddenly found out that there were two battalions of divine soldiers watching in the dark at all times in the mansion. Their first impression must have been one of awe.

After all, it is a terrifying ghost that can surround and kill wizards and easily wipe out a prominent family. It is rumored to be the last trump card of the great wizard.

Wu Yong passed the corridor and headed towards the East Garden. Along the way, he occasionally met one or two Taoist boys standing on both sides and bowing to him, but he ignored them and strode into the courtyard.

He took a bath, changed his clothes, and lay down on the couch.

"It was really dangerous today. I didn't expect Danyang to be in such a mess. Fortunately, I have established a good connection with the Thunder Camp!"

"I really want to quickly cultivate the outer alchemy path, open up the great orifices of the Zhoutian, condense the Gangsha, and achieve both methods at the same time, so that I can have a chance to compete on the battlefield outside the realm!"

In a daze, I reviewed the recent dangers and fell into a deep sleep.
There is a protector, or a guide.

Mainly study the Zhoutian Wheel Meridian and the Seven Souls. Secondary study is external alchemy.

Personally, I think it’s a very interesting combination.

There are really too few people writing about external alchemy. It seems to be a good way, and I want to write about it.

It should be interesting to practice Taoist military tactics while balancing the properties of the golden stone elixir, right?
