Refining Taoism and ascending to immortality

Yang Xiaozhu wore a white dress and black silk, and had a pretty face. She stood on tiptoe, staring at the river in the distance, carrying iron, stone and gold sand. The golden water was rising in the distance, and under the light of the sky, it formed a mottled magnetic halo. When her consciousness approached, she felt a tearing sensation and couldn't help but said, "Uncle San, is that the Jinsha River that Senior Brother Meng mentioned?"

Standing in front of the girl was an old man who looked less than 60 years old. His face was full of red, and under his feet was a seven-color rainbow bridge condensed by Dansha power. There were auspicious beasts running back and forth, flying out and chirping, coming and going continuously. , he said cheerfully: "Yes, the golden water in this river is surging, and the sound can be heard thousands of miles away. It is indeed rich in inspiration. But the water is turbulent and the gold is everywhere, which can easily affect the process of condensing the pill."

"Xing Shuai, this kid, has a kind of tiger spirit."

When Yang Xiaozhu heard this, she raised her thin eyebrows, stomped her feet lightly, and said coquettishly: "Third uncle, you are talking nonsense again. Senior Brother Meng is not a tiger. He must have a bottom line in his heart when he chose this Jinsha River to condense the pill."

"Hehe."

The old man looked at his niece's little girl and laughed a few times. He didn't say much, but there was a lot of teasing in his eyes.

The boy who is condensing the pill in the Jinsha River now has excellent qualifications, is tall and handsome, and has aroused the spring heart of many girls in the sect. It is normal for a younger generation like me to think about spring at this age.

However, if the other party can successfully condense the pill this time and be promoted to a Danhua cultivator, it is not a bad idea to match the two of them.

Noticing the gaze of her third uncle, Yang Xiaozhu blushed. She turned her head away, not looking at him, but staring at the river surface, thinking about her senior brother who was sinking into the water and condensing the elixir.

As she looked at it, she subconsciously held her hands in front of her and prayed softly, saying, "Bless, bless, everything goes well."

The pious girl stood in the light, like a perfect jade statue.

As for the old man Yang Zhao, who had cultivated to the perfection of elixir early, his expression was calm and he didn't worry too much.

With Meng Xingshuai's qualifications and accumulation, the success of condensing the elixir was almost certain. It was just that he was always cautious, so he sent a message to the sect before condensing the elixir and came to Jinsha River to take care of it.

After all, once a cultivator condenses the elixir, the principles of heaven and earth will fall. Once he achieves a golden elixir of medium quality or above, he will naturally attract the qi around and form a certain phenomenon.

Such a phenomenon is so obvious that it cannot be concealed. If the luck is very bad, an accident may occur.

At this moment, Yang Zhao felt something and looked into the river.

At some point, a startling rainbow appeared in the river. It was more than ten feet long and plunged into the water. It reflected the waves and the mist, reflecting the surrounding area with a piece of red clouds. It was red and continuous, and beautiful.

The sky, water color, and clouds were reflected on the calm water surface, forming hundreds of halos, which were big and small. In each of them, there was a constantly changing seal script, which was born and died.

"It worked."

Yang Zhao's old face showed a gratified smile. He had a good eye and could see at a glance that this was the strange phenomenon caused by the condensation of the elixir by Meng Xingshuai, a younger generation of his sect.

After all, he practiced the sect's true and profound skill "Hanging One Word Book", which explained the wonderful principles in thousands of words.

Among the many profound skills of the sect, this skill is not easy to practice and is quite difficult, but once it breaks through to the realm of elixir, the upper limit is opened and the power is infinite.

"One-word book and middle-grade golden elixir."

Yang Zhao looked at the rainbow across the waves, the colors changed, and the smile on his face became bigger and bigger.

For the Zhongxuan Sect like them, such a combination symbolizes a promising future in the sect.

"Huh."

When Yang Zhao's smile was the biggest, his expression changed, and he looked up at the sky, and suddenly, colorful clouds and white mists appeared, and a flying palace as delicate and transparent as a pearl was lifted up.

Looking from the sky palace, you can see that in the flying palace, the table is clean, the books are opened, and the words soaked in green jump out, and they are read naturally, telling the truth, and every word is a pearl, which inspires people to think deeply.

As if sensing Yang Zhao's gaze, the words in the Baozhu Flying Palace flew up one by one, constantly arranging and combining, and finally gathered into a book with bamboos on the pages, held in the slender jade hands of a beautiful lady. She was wearing a palace skirt and light makeup on her face. She sat quietly behind the jade table, and a strange power was overflowing from her body. The sound of continuous recitation sounded one after another, one after another, and it was clear and melodious.

The Baozhu Flying Palace moved the sky above the Jinsha River, and groups of golden words shot out from below, gathering together to form pages of books that were constantly turned over. All the sky colors, all the water lights, and all the sounds surrounded the Baozhu, as if they were chanting.

For a moment, above the waves, only the rainbow formed by the successful condensation of the elixir still stood under the cleansing of the principles of heaven and earth, and the others were covered by the Baozhu.

Yang Zhao saw the Baozhu Flying Palace and the ladies in palace skirts leaning against a jade table and holding books in the palace. He was surprised and asked, "Master Jiang Yue from Yingtian Academy?"

The Baozhu Flying Palace moved, and the light in front rolled up like a pearl curtain. Master Jiang Yue also saw Yang Zhao and the rainbow on the waves. Her voice gave people a lingering power and said, "It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Yang. Long time no see. Is there a disciple in the sect who has achieved the middle-grade golden elixir?"

"Master Jiang."

Yang Zhao's expression changed several times, and he immediately pulled his juniors over to greet him.

Speaking of which, the two of them had had many interactions with each other before when they went out to look for "foreign medicine" for condensing pills. Later, they were promoted to the realm of pill condensation together and also traveled around. However, in the future, his cultivation level was stagnant, his improvement was slow, and his progress was hopeless. However, the other party, with the support of the sect and his own opportunities, broke through the barrier of alchemy and became the Yuanying Master of Shangxuanmen Yingtian Academy. The two of them The status between them is getting bigger and bigger.

Now that the other party can take the initiative to speak and say hello, it is considered that he has not forgotten the past. Otherwise, he, the alchemy monk of the Menghua Sect of Xuanmen, would not be able to enter the Dharma eyes of such a real person of Shangxuanmen.

Master Jiang Yue from Yingtian Academy was about to speak. At this moment, the rainbow on the waves receded, and a young man stepped out from the water. He was wearing a small crown, a splendid dream-like robe, and long sleeves. Like a wing, a wisp of elixir energy rushed out from the Tianmen, and when it was shaken in the air, it turned into a strange book, ever-changing.

After the young man came out, he glanced at Yang Zhao and the hanging orb, with a look of thinking on his face.

"Xingshuai." Yang Zhao also noticed the young man who came out, called him over, asked him to salute the real person on the orb, and said: "This is Zhenren Jiang from Yingtian Academy."

"Junior Meng Xingshuai has met Master Jiang."

The young man stepped forward, straightened his clothes, and saluted uprightly. He looked serious, neither humble nor overbearing.

Master Jiang Yue couldn't help but take a second look. It was really good for a monk in the Zhongxuan Sect to have such a temperament. She thought about it, took out a thin book from her sleeve, cast a bright light, and rolled it up to Meng Xingshuai. He came closer and said: "As a senior, I didn't bring anything good when I came out. This is the copy of the Grand Contemplation Sutra that I copied in the sect. I give it to you. I congratulate you on your success in condensing the elixir. I hope you will practice well and bring righteousness to the sect." color."

These words were originally a bit condescending and old-fashioned, but in the gentle voice of Master Jiang Yue, there was a kind of sincere instruction and high expectations, which made people believe it after listening.

When Yang Zhao heard this, he didn't care about anything else and said quickly: "Xingshuai, Master Jiang has such good intentions, please accept it quickly!"

Did he know that in Yingtian Academy, there is a huge monument of the Heavenly Viewing Scripture left by the Yasheng, which is said to contain the principles of heaven and earth and all the wonders of the world. This kind of scripture is really full of gems and contains great power. Even if it is just a copy of the book, it is a rare treasure.

What's more, this is a manuscript written by Jiang Yue, a real Yuanying person. When she copied it by hand, she incorporated her own insights into it word by word, which was amazing.

The most important thing is that the mysterious skill that Meng Xingshuai practices is "The Hanging One-Character Book". He got this real person's handwritten book on the Grand Contemplation Sutra, which exactly corresponds to what he has learned, and he gets twice the result with half the effort.

This congratulatory gift sent by the other party is not only not light at all, but also appears to be very thoughtful.

Meng Xingshuai also knew that this gift was not light. He stepped forward politely, took the scroll with both hands, bowed again, and said loudly: "Junior thanks the master."

"Okay." Zhenren Jiang Yue has been on the Baozhu Fei Palace and has not come down, but her eyebrows are swiping lightly, her jade face is delicate, and her every move has a bookish air, which makes people not feel any distance at all. At this time, she gently A smile was like a hundred flowers blooming, with a kind of gentleness that hit his face, and he said: "Fellow Taoist Yang Zhao and I are also familiar with each other. We finally met today, so we don't need to be too polite."

After this interaction, the atmosphere in the venue was obviously much better. Yang Xiaozhu, a girl who was already lively, now looked at the orb flying into the palace and Jiang Yue, who looked like a classic and perfect lady, and couldn't help but said: "Zhenren When you come to Jinsha River, are there any disciples who go to the Jinsha River to condense the elixir?"

"That's right." Master Jiang Yue nodded slightly, his jade face glowing, and said: "A younger member of my clan is also condensing elixirs in the Jinsha River to pass the pass. Counting the time, he will be out soon."

"I wonder if I can compare to Senior Brother Meng."

Yang Xiaozhu didn't say anything, but just glanced at his fellow senior brother. He was standing by the river, with the golden wind blowing, and his whole body seemed to be glowing.

In her opinion, her senior brother Meng's ability to successfully condense elixirs and induce visions was very extraordinary. Among his peers, he was absolutely outstanding and unmatched by others.

Master Jiang Yue noticed Yang Xiaozhu's little thoughts. She smiled sweetly and didn't care. Which girl doesn't have a child? That's exactly what happened.

Yang Zhao and Meng Xingshuai looked at each other, made a decision, and decided to stay.

They didn't have Yang Xiaozhu's blind confidence. The main reason they stayed was to take a look at the levels of Chengdan of the disciples of Xuanmen Yingtian Academy and find out the difference.

That's exactly what it is like to see a wise man and think about him.

Everyone did not wait for long, less than half an hour. Suddenly, bursts of reciting sounded from the river. At the beginning, it was clear and crisp. After a while, the sound became louder and louder, grand and upright, and in the end, the whole place was filled with the sound of reading.

Wherever the sound goes, flowers are falling from the sky, golden lotuses are flowing from the ground, and ancient simple characters appear on it. Between the silver hooks and iron paintings, an indescribable mystical theory is flowing, explaining philosophy, rules and human hearts.

Just by looking at it, it seems that all the principles in the world are pouring into my heart, letting people know how to behave and do things.

"this,"

Seeing this scene, Meng Xingshuai's face changed even though he had been prepared for it, because he discovered that the vision created by the other party's condensation covered hundreds of miles, which was almost several times the vision created by his own condensation. .

Not to mention, in the other party's vision, the pen is like a rafter, the gold characters are falling, expounding the legal principles and human feelings, and the mystery revealed in it is beyond my own perception.

It is obvious that the other party's cultivation of the mysterious art and his attainments in the mysterious art are far superior to his own.

The gap between the two of them is visible to the naked eye and there is no need to question it.

"Top-grade golden elixir."

Yang Zhao looked at the ancient text and described the legal principles, muttering that only when a cultivator builds a top-grade golden elixir and the heaven and earth are in contact, will there be such a strange phenomenon.

"Top-grade golden elixir."

Meng Xingshuai also judged it. He put one hand in his sleeve and clenched it tightly, with no expression on his face.

He just succeeded in condensing the elixir, but he knew the difficulty of condensing a top-grade golden elixir. Condensing the "external medicine" of the elixir, condensing the "internal medicine" of the elixir, and finally removing the dross and retaining the essence of the soul and true qi, these three levels must be done very well before it is possible to achieve success.

It sounds simple, but it is really too difficult to do it in reality.

In the Baozhu Fei Palace, Jiang Yue Zhenren stroked her hair with her hand, and glanced at the three people from Menghua Sect with her beautiful eyes. Yang Zhao was surprised, but it was natural. Meng Xingshuai, the young man, was shocked, puzzled and thoughtful. Yang Xiaozhu, the young girl, widened her eyes and smiled again.

Seeing someone build a top-grade golden elixir with her own eyes was indeed very shocking. However, this was also the vision of the middle-level Xuanmen cultivators like them. In their Menghua Sect, there were really too few people who could achieve top-grade golden elixir.

But in the upper Xuanmen like Yingtian Academy, it was different. There were indeed few top-grade golden elixirs, but there would always be some who could build top-grade golden elixirs among the true disciples.

"Top-grade golden elixir."

There was light in the beautiful eyes of Zhenren Jiang Yue. She was a fourth-grade elixir back then, and finally she was promoted to Zhenren. Although she, a younger generation, achieved a top-grade golden elixir, there was only one word difference, but her future was far greater than hers.

After a while, the strange phenomenon still existed, but the waves moved, and a tall young man came out. He wore a star crown on his head and a long robe with an open book embroidered on it. His face was not too handsome, but he was square and gave people a very calm feeling.

Master Jiang Yue called his younger generation and said, "Kai Shou, come here."

"Yes."

Jiang Kai Shou agreed, he turned his head and nodded slightly to the three people from Meng Hua Sect, and jumped together, with a Dan Sha force, and came behind Master Jiang Yue.

The whole process was peaceful and quiet, without any fireworks, but when I thought that the other party was a true disciple of Shangxuan Sect who had just condensed a top-grade golden elixir, it still gave people a sense of oppression.

Master Jiang Yue said another sentence to Yang Zhao, and was about to drive the Baozhu Fei Palace away. When he was about to leave, a strange phenomenon came from the water for the third time, and the momentum was even greater than the strange phenomenon when Jiang Kai Shou achieved a top-grade golden elixir just now.
