Longevity and Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Controlling Your Own Essence

"Master of Passage."

Zhang Yao responded politely.

He was a little troubled before, how to communicate with Tongxing Arhat and Heze Patriarch openly and openly, and discuss important matters without arousing the vigilance of the senior officials of Mani Temple.

This was easy to do in the past, but now due to his status and strength, it is not so easy to do.

But unexpectedly, a sudden turn of events occurred, and the appearance of the Tiangong Jade Talisman made all these obstacles no longer a problem.

No matter how powerful the Mani Temple's methods are, they are not as powerful as those of the three heavenly palaces. Even those great Arhats cannot monitor the secret conversations of the three of them.

Recalling that at the beginning, Patriarch He Ze took the opportunity of the Dharma Conference to go to Mani Temple in person to communicate with Tongxing Arhat. I am afraid that it was true and false, false and true, to confuse those who were interested.

"Old monk."

Ancestor He Ze’s voice was full of teasing:

"You have been waiting for this day for many years, right?"

"But you are patient enough and have a really good eye. You fell in love with this fellow Taoist Qingxu at a glance."

Old monk Tongxing's tone was calm:

"Fellow Taoist Qingxu is from the lineage of the Five Elements Celestial Masters. He has a bright future and unlimited possibilities in the future. This does not require any foresight."

When he responds to summons, he will always be a beat or two slower. This is because the summons with the help of the Tiangong Jade Talisman will also be delayed.

The three of them were in the same country, only tens of thousands of miles away from each other, so the delay was very short and almost negligible.

The further the distance between the two parties, the delay will increase exponentially. If one is in the southwest and the other is in Tianzhou, then it may take several hours to ask and answer, which can only be used to convey some key information. and intelligence.

But even so, this is still a unique ultra-long-distance communication method that surpasses all magical methods.

"Yeah?"

Ancestor He Ze laughed, obviously not believing what he said:

"The Celestial Master's lineage is certainly powerful, but it is also very difficult to practice. You are really brave."

It is very difficult to get started with the Tianshi School, and it is even more difficult to grow up.

Otherwise, in the past hundreds of years in the Nine Palaces of Tianzhou, there are not many people who have stepped into the path of the Heavenly Master. However, the only one who can really shock Tianzhou and ascend to the "Nine Heavens Golden Book" is the "Dragon King of Mirror Lake". .

Tongxing Luohan dared to put his treasure on Zhang Yao, betting that he would grow up smoothly and have at least the ultimate level of Jindan. He was definitely very courageous.

"Okay, let's get down to business."

Tongxing Luohan did not want to dwell on this topic and said:

"Now, fellow Taoist Qingxu has finally reached the highest level of the Golden elixir, which is a great thing."

"There are only a few years left before the earthquake occurs. According to our previous plan..."

He described the original plan in further detail, especially the different division of labor and arrangements among the three people, which was the top priority.

Zhang Yao also listened very carefully, especially the occurrences and countermeasures of various unexpected situations, which required special attention.

What Tongxing Arhat is planning is a major event that will change the world!

Even for Zhang Yao today, this is full of dangers and extremely difficult. If he is not careful, he will die in Mani's country, so he cannot help but take it seriously.

Of course, with high risks comes higher returns. Zhang Yao has already received half of the reward in advance, but after the event is completed, there is an ancient spiritual treasure with infinite power waiting for him.

Until half an hour later:

This crucial secret meeting has just come to an end.

"Fellow Taoist, stay."

Tongxing Luohan disconnected the communication channel, and Patriarch He Ze also said goodbye and left.

"Time is running out."

Zhang Yao watched Patriarch Heze's light disappear, and then he looked back, his eyes slightly deep.

He fluttered his sleeves and turned around, returned to the Demon Sealing Hall and sat down cross-legged, killing his stale energy as usual, quietly waiting for the opportunity to come.

…………

In the blink of an eye, six years have passed.

Zhang Yao was sitting in the Demon Cave of Changle Mountain, and while his cultivation level was further improved, he also slightly dispelled some of the vigilance of Mani Temple's senior officials.

Until this day, he took the initiative to contact the senior management of Mani Temple and asked to send a golden Arhat to replace him, but he did not receive an immediate response.

the reason is simple:

In the Jingguo Liangyue River, the Taiyin Tide Festival, which is held only every 296 years, is about to begin, with less than three months left.

The Taiyin Tide Festival is a grand event in the immortal cultivation circles of nearby countries. Mani Temple will definitely send people to participate, and there are quite a lot of people, so internal coordination is a bit troublesome.

Monks with six pure roots also have competition, not to mention the Taiyin Festival with endless benefits?

As this grand event begins, more than half of the dozen or so foreign golden elixir monks stationed in Mani's country have temporarily resigned, further increasing coordination difficulties.

"Amitabha."

It wasn't until a few days later that an old acquaintance of Zhang Yao came to take his place.

"Master Zhenhui?"

Zhang Yao looked at the young monk in front of him, a little surprised:

"How could it be that you came to replace me in the Demon Cave of Changle Mountain? Shouldn't you be accompanying me to Jingguo?"

Monk Zhenhui was the most outstanding genius in Mani Temple for hundreds of years. After practicing for decades, he reached the realm of golden Arhat. Even Zhang Yao was shocked by it at first.

Moreover, he is still the direct disciple of Tongxing Arhat. With Tongxing Arhat's status in the Mani Temple, it is not his turn to take over the drudgery of the Demon Cave, right?

"Why……"

Monk Zhenhui sighed, looking a little sad, but did not open his mouth to explain.

But with Zhang Yao's wisdom and experience, once he saw the expression on Monk Zhenhui's face and the thoughts in his mind, he immediately guessed the truth.

"It seems that many people inside Mani Temple are very dissatisfied with Tongtong Arhat."

Zhang Yao understood clearly in his heart.

The Hall of Great Enlightenment is known as the first hall of enlightenment in the Mani Temple, and it is the only shortcut to the realm of the great Arhat.

Tongxing Arhat has been in charge of the Dajue Hall for so many years, but he has been unable to untie his heart knot and break through to the upper realm, so that he has blocked the way of too many people and offended too many people.

This internal game was probably also a concentrated outbreak of conflicts, which led to monk Zhenhui being implicated by his master and losing the opportunity to go to Jingguo to participate in the grand meeting.

"This is truly an unforeseen disaster."

Zhang Yao didn't feel comfortable opening his mouth to comfort him, so he quickly completed the handover in a businesslike manner and hurried away in the form of a rainbow.

A few days later.

"Greetings to the ancestor."

In the Qingxu Palace, more than a dozen Jindan monks gathered together, and the atmosphere was quite warm.

Nowadays, the southwest land has become a whole. Facing the lunar tide event, it is natural to advance and retreat together.

Of course, this is also related to their vital interests. They all eagerly hope to hug Zhang Yao's lap, so much so that they came to Qingxu Palace early to wait.

"You don't have to be polite."

After Zhang Yao raised his hand to signal, he said directly:

"The Taiyin Tide Festival is just around the corner. Naturally, we in the southwest cannot miss such an opportunity."

"However, although the opportunity of the grand gathering will attract Jindan monks from nearby countries to flock here, there may also be hidden evil cultivators and demonic cultivators who take advantage of this opportunity to cause chaos, slaughtering creatures and hunting monks."

"Therefore, we cannot go out in full force, we must leave manpower behind to prepare for possible raids."

As soon as this statement came out:

The expressions of many Jindan monks suddenly changed slightly and they became silent.

Zhang Yao's meaning was obvious, someone had to stay behind, but the problem was that no one wanted to stay and miss this opportunity in vain.

"Ancestor."

Finally, Dugu Yan broke the silence and asked proactively:

"According to the ancestor's wishes, how many manpower should be left behind?"

Zhang Yao waved his hand and said:

"It doesn't have to be too many. It's enough for Dali, Dayu, Damo and Dacang to each have one golden elixir cultivator to stay behind."

After hearing this, many Jindan monks secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they looked at me and me with different expressions.

So who will be the unlucky guy?

"Fellow."

Ancestor Mingyuan took the initiative and said:

"I won't go to this grand event. I'll stay and take care of Mo Yuan."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you, fellow Taoist."

Zhang Yao nodded slightly and agreed to the request.

Although the Taiyin Tide Grand Event is a rare opportunity, Mo Yuan is also very important, and strong people are indispensable.

Today's southwest land can be called two or three big cats and kittens. Although there are many golden elixir monks, the only powerful ones worthy of praise are Zhang Yao and Ancestor Mingyuan.

"Is there anyone else who has volunteered?"

Zhang Yao's gaze swept across the numerous Golden Elixir cultivators:

"The Golden Core monks who are responsible for staying behind don't have to worry about missing the opportunity."

"All the gains from this Taiyin Tide event will also be divided among the Jindan monks responsible for guarding it. In addition, there will be an additional compensation."
