Lu Ci and Gong Er lowered their heads after hearing what Shen Yan said. Seeing their state, Shen Yan did not say anything further and invited everyone to go up the mountain.

The Trinity Sect is at the top of a mountain. The road is rugged and the peaks are high, but everyone here is a Qi cultivator, so climbing the mountain is effortless for them.

"Young mountain master, you are too unkind to women. The mountain road is so steep, please support Miss Gong." Lu Ci teased behind them.

Shen Yan thought to himself: "If even you can't beat her, will she be tired?"

But he still asked Gong Er: "Miss Gong, are you tired?"

Gong Er pursed her lips and smiled: "Not tired"

"Oh"

Hearing her say that she was not tired, Shen Yan turned around and continued to rush up the mountain.

The people behind were all confused when they saw Shen Yan's performance.

Lu Ci touched Lu Ren next to him with his arm.

Lu Ren also shook his head helplessly and thought: "He is quite emotionally retarded."

When they were almost at the top of the mountain, Shen Yan and his companions saw from afar several disciples of the Trinity Sect coming out of a courtyard. Each of them was holding a water jar and several bundles of firewood in their hands.

Lu Jin, holding firewood in his hand, stopped and looked at Shen Yan's team.

"Senior Brother Lu, what are you looking at? Do you know this group of people?" Zhuge Hongyuan asked from the side.

Lu Jin's tone was a little puzzled: "I know two of them, Lu Ren and Lu Ci from the Lu family. I don't know the others. Why did they go up the mountain? I'll go say hello."

After saying this, Lu Jin put down the object in his hand, and Zhuge Hongyuan followed behind him to greet him.

"Brother Lu Ren and Brother Lu Ci, long time no see. How have you been?" Lu Jin stepped forward and said to Lu Ren and Lu Ci while clasping his fists.

When Lu Ren saw that the person was Lu Jin, he smiled gently: "It's Lu Jin, very good. We came to Trinity Gate to visit the left head, and we didn't expect to meet you here."

"Tsk! Hypocritical!" Lu Ci casually bowed, shook his head and muttered softly.

Lu Jin didn't care. He and Lu Ci didn't get along well, so he ignored him and looked at Shen Yan who was at the front of the team.

He looked at Shen Yan, and saw that he was about the same height as himself, with an imposing manner and a dignified appearance, and his whole body was so clear and energetic that it was difficult to tell his cultivation level.

"Who are these brothers?"

Lu Ren hurriedly introduced him: "This is our captain. You must have heard of him. He is the little master of Maoshan, Shen Yan."

Lu Jin and Zhuge Hongyuan were stunned, unable to believe that the person in front of them was the famous Shen Yan.

Lu Jin had been staying in the mountains for many years and was not aware of Lu Ren's joining the army, but Shen Yan's name was too familiar to him. In the past two years, all the strangers who came to the mountains to visit him praised Shen Yan's heroic deeds.

The two men straightened their bodies and bowed deeply: "Sinyi Lu Jin and Zhuge Hongyuan greet Senior Brother Shen!"

Shen Yan is about the same age as the two of them, but people in the Xuanmen always call each other senior brothers.

"Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Zhuge, you are being too formal." Shen Yan helped them up.

"This time, Shen came here to ask to see the head of the Zuo Sect. I hope the two brothers can help introduce him to me."

Lu Jin smiled brightly and quickly agreed: "Brother Shen, come with me, my master is in the sect."

Shen Yan and his group followed Lu Jin and Zhuge Hongyuan into the mountain gate. When they arrived outside the Taoist temple, Shen Yan looked up and saw a huge plaque with the words "31" hanging on the door.

He thought to himself, "Among the current Xuanmen sects, the prestige of Trinity is no less than that of Sanshan and Quanzhen, but how did such a big sect fall into the hands of Wu Gensheng?"

"Brother Shen, please come in."

"okay"

Shen Yan didn't think any more and followed Lu Jin and the others into Trinity Gate.

When they entered the temple, the people of the Trinity Sect were practicing in the square of the front hall. Shuiyun and Changqing pointed out the shortcomings of their fellow apprentices. Seeing Lu Jin leading everyone in, the two walked up.

"Junior Brother Lu, who are these guests?"

Lu Jin introduced Shui Yun with a smile: "This is the owner of the mountain, Shen Yan, and Lu Ren and Lu Ci from Lujia Village..."

When the other practitioners heard Shen Yan's name, they all stopped and gathered around.

"Is this the Little Mountain Master Shen Yan?"

“You don’t look that old.”

Everyone was whispering, Shuiyun and Changqing looked at Shen Yan with awe and hurriedly saluted him.

After Shen Yan returned the greeting, he started chatting with the two of them.

"Brother, you entertain Brother Shen. I will go in and report to Master."

After Lu Jin made all the arrangements, he turned and walked towards the back hall, where the left gate chief was discussing the recent situation with Si Chong and Wu Chengzhen.

"Master, when I went down the mountain to buy things these past two days, I found that people on the street were in a panic. Those Japanese pirates seemed to be planning to invade Hubei."

Zuo Ruotong frowned and said, "Although we are a sect that does not care about worldly affairs, we cannot stand idly by when the Japanese pirates invade our border. Once the Japanese pirates invade here, we must protect the people here."

"Brother, you're right. Trinity Sect usually relies on the support of the surrounding people. This is what we should do."

"Master, Lu Jin has something to report."

When the three heard Lu Jin shouting outside, they stopped talking.

"Come in"

With Zuo Rutong's permission, Lu Jin stepped into the room, greeted the three people, and then explained his purpose.

"Master, Shen Yan, the young master of Maoshan, has brought people to pay respects to the mountain and hopes to see you."

"Oh? Why is he here?" Zuo Rutong was a little confused.

Wu Chengzhen interrupted and said, "Master, the young master is far away in the army in Jin District. He must have something urgent to do when he came to Trinity."

Zuo Ruotong stood up from the futon with a smile on his face: "Come with me to meet him"

Si Chong, Wu Chengzhen and Lu Jin followed him to the square in the front hall.

"Master"

When everyone from the Trinity Sect saw Zuo Rutong coming, they all bowed their heads and saluted.

When Shen Yan saw Zuo Rutong, he couldn't help but secretly praised him: "He is really an immortal."

Zuo Rutong was seen standing on the ground barefoot but spotless.

The nature changes naturally, and the true nature allows it to do so.

With a majestic body that lives as long as the sky, and a clear mind that has gone through all the calamities, he will attain immortality!

Shen Yan led everyone to bow to the ground: "Shen Yan, Lü Ren, and Gong Ruomei of Maoshan... greet the Immortal Daying"

"Everyone please stand up"

Everyone stood up, and Zuo Rutong looked Shen Yan up and down.

"When you were born, I, your master, the old mountain master, and the Heavenly Master went to your home to celebrate. Eighteen years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you have become a world-famous little mountain master. Time flies."

"Hehe, I, the left gatekeeper, came here uninvited this time. I hope you can forgive me. I really have something to ask you, left gatekeeper. We will stay in Trinity for a few days."

"Haha, it's okay. We are all one family in Xuanmen. Besides, your Shen family is also the financial sponsor of Sanyi. Shuiyun, please arrange for the guests to rest."

"Yes, Master." Shuiyun led the others to the guest room to rest.

Shen Yan followed Zuo Rutong to the back hall, and the two sat opposite each other on the futon in the room.

"Tell me, did you encounter any difficulties this time when you came to Trinity?"

"I dare not hide it from Master Zuo. I do have some difficulties. I accidentally found a method a few days ago. Its usage is somewhat similar to the third level of reverse birth, but it is not perfect yet. So I dare to hope that Master Zuo can give me some advice."

Zuo Ruotong was curious when he heard this: "Oh? What kinds of magic are similar to rebirth? Tell me about it."

Shen Yan then explained the art of Guiming Jindun, and accurately presented his own understanding of the conjecture of using the Qi of the lungs to transform the whole body. However, he concealed the matter between him and Master Jin Guang, and only said that he had obtained it by chance.

Zuo Rutong listened very seriously, but there was a half-smile on his face.

After Shen Yan finished speaking, Zuo Rutong started to speak and startled him.

"This method is indeed ingenious, but did you really get this by chance, Little Mountain Master? Think about it before you speak!"

Shen Yan swallowed his saliva. He looked into Zuo Rutong's eyes and felt that his eyes could see through his heart. So he decided not to hide it anymore.

"Zuomen Changmingjian, I learned this method from Master Jinguang, but there is a reason behind it."

Shen Yan told him without reservation how Master Jin Guang saved him and his troops, how he taught him the Dharma, and how he received the karma from Master Jin Guang.
