Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune starts from Tianshi Mansion

Chapter 555 554. Looking into the Cave Reality (two chapters in one)

The brilliant starlight in the sky above Longhu Mountain seemed to have turned into a universe of stars.

It was still daytime, but the surrounding sky and earth had dimmed, as if it was night.

In the central area of ​​the night, the starlight was particularly bright.

The starlight vaguely gathered into a huge illusory three-layer altar above Longhu Mountain, which was round on the top and octagonal in the middle.

At the topmost round altar, there was a more condensed and brilliant starlight that went straight up, penetrating the night universe, like a column of light and a road to heaven.

The end of the road to heaven sank into the sky, and its whereabouts were unknown.

The people above and below Longhu Mountain and the surrounding areas witnessed such a magnificent scene, and they immediately understood it.

After Yuan Mobai and Chu Kun, the Tianshi Mansion has produced a new talisman school immortal.

The contemporary Tianshi, the Three Caves and Three Days Master Longhu Zhenren, Zhuo Baojie.

All the disciples in the Longhu Mountain ancestral temple, regardless of their level of cultivation, saluted the huge three-story altar formed by the condensation of starlight.

After a while, the starlight converged, and the surrounding night also disappeared, and the world was exposed to the sun again.

Zhuo Baojie looked no different from before. He was wearing a Tianshi robe, a Tianshi sword and a Tianshi seal on his waist, and a Yuanshi crown on his head. He walked out of the Tianshi Hall slowly.

His eyes moved slightly, and his sight was immediately cast on a villa in the mountains.

His eyes seemed to pass through the void and met Lei Jun's eyes.

Lei Jun smiled and nodded.

Zhuo Baojie then calmed down, greeted other fellow disciples in the mansion, accepted everyone's congratulations, and set the time for the opening of the altar.

After all matters were roughly agreed and arranged, Zhuo Baojie went to that cave specifically.

He was very familiar with this place.

It was the cave where Lei Jun lived before he took over the position of Tianshi.

When Zhuo Baojie entered, he saw Lei Jun and his fellow disciple Feng Ting looking at him with a smile.

"Congratulations to the contemporary Heavenly Master Dong Xuan for ascending to heaven and having a long and healthy life." Lei Jun said with a smile.

Beside him, Feng Ting bowed his head with a smile: "Congratulations to the head master, Dong Xuan for ascending to heaven and having a long and healthy life."

Zhuo Baojie looked at the tall Taoist in front of him who still looked like a young man and was wearing a yellow robe. He opened his mouth but could not make a sound for a while.

After he bowed down to Lei Jun like a golden mountain overturning a jade pillar, he was finally able to speak normally:

"It has been nearly three decades since I followed my master back to the mountain. Thinking about it now, it seems like a lifetime ago. I am here today thanks to my master."

Lei Jun raised his hand to hold up his eldest disciple, and asked him to sit down with Feng Ting:

"Master leads you into the door, and it is up to you to practice. Just as Hua Ting is a genius of the human race, you, Hua Jie, are also a natural spirit species, a genius among spirit beasts.

To be honest, practicing the human race's Taoism has even delayed you for some time. If you were taught by other spirit beasts, you could practice according to the spirit beast's method, and you might be able to open the door to immortality earlier than now and become an immortal."

Like Yuan Mobai, Zhuo Baojie practiced the human race's Taoism as a spirit beast, and it took some time to lay the foundation when he first entered the door.

Zhuo Baojie, for example, followed Lei Jun back to the mountain for more than ten years before he was formally ordained and became a disciple in the winter of the year when Lei Jun ascended to the upper three days.

Later, during his cultivation, the master and the disciple constantly discussed and coordinated, and also paid attention to adjusting the progress of cultivation, so that sometimes it seemed fast and slow.

As Lei Jun said, if he had lived in Canghuan since childhood like Zhenlong Huaming, Fenghuang Fengming, and Qingluan Zhuyin, and had been taught and guided by other spirit beasts since childhood, with his qualifications, he might have opened the door to immortality faster than now.

However, Zhuo Baojie did not think so.

After the catastrophe at the end of the Han Dynasty, Canghuan was closed for many years and never returned to the human world.

Moreover, Canghuan later landed in the human world of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, which was decades away from his youth.

If he had not met Lei Jun, he could only slowly cultivate his spiritual wisdom and practice for decades. Not to mention the speed of his cultivation, he might even encounter the risk of premature death. Even if everything went smoothly, it might not be much faster than practicing the Taoism of the human race.

"My disciple is where he is today, all thanks to my master." Zhuo Baojie repeated this seriously.

The three of them were chatting, when suddenly someone rushed in like a fly:

"Congratulations, Senior Brother!"

The purple-robed nun entered the cave, straightened her expression and saluted to Lei Jun: "Disciple greets Master."

It was Han Xiaofei, Lei Jun's second disciple who had traveled far away from the mountain before.

After greeting her master and third junior brother Feng Ting, she soon lost control and looked at Zhuo Baojie with some annoyance:

"I rushed back to the mountain in a hurry, but I'm still a little late!"

Zhuo Baojie remained calm: "Don't panic, I'll wait for you next time."

After Han Xiaofei was annoyed, she soon smiled again: "Anyway, congratulations to Senior Brother Dongxuan for ascending to immortality and living a long and healthy life."

As she spoke, her eyes began to roll around, sneaking a sneaky glance at Zhuo Baojie.

Lei Jun knew what his second disciple was thinking without even looking:

I wonder if the fur will feel better after ascending to immortality...

"Under the tutelage of our master, Uncle Wang's situation is a little special, but he, Master, and Third Uncle have all ascended to the immortal realm, creating a good story."

Zhuo Baojie ignored Han Xiaofei's scrutiny and smiled at her and Feng Ting: "Shall we three try too?"

Han Xiaofei quietly approached her eldest senior brother and said: "Although there is still some distance, I must push open the immortal gate to see the scenery of the immortal realm!"

Feng Ting smiled at the side: "I am not talented enough to compare with my senior brothers and sisters, but I will definitely practice hard, do my best, and follow them."

Lei Jun sat upright, smiling at his three disciples.

After chatting for a while, Han Xiaofei remembered something: "By the way, Master, I remember you mentioned before that the one from Huang Tiandao... Master Kang, he has also been preparing for the Dongxuan Ascension in recent years?"

Lei Jun: "Yes."

Han Xiaofei asked curiously: "I heard that he has a two-phase holy body, and at the same time he practices the Taoist talisman school and the Danding school. So, did he become a Taoist Jingxuanyuan or a Yuanshen?"

Lei Jun: "In a short period of time, he successively cultivated the first level of the Xuanling Yiqi of the Five Qis of the Fulu School and the Mingling Qi of the Five Qis of the Danding School. It can be said that both of the two sects have cultivated to the nine-layered Mahayana realm.

However, after that, he concentrated on He practiced in the Taoist talisman school, and later achieved the perfect Tongxuan Bridge of the Five Qis, and worked hard for the immortality of the Great Vehicle Dao Jing and Dao Jing Xuan Yuan.

In addition, during this period, his two-phase holy body bones had been sublimated into the Hunyuan Immortal Body. "

"It's already the Hunyuan Immortal Body, so you can practice more than two Taoist inheritances."

Han Xiaofei was a little surprised, but when talking about Kang Ming and Huang Tiandao, her tone was calm: "I don't know when he can successfully open the immortal gate. If he ascends to immortality, I wonder if he will stay in the human world or go to the heaven and earth?"

Lei Jun looked into the distance calmly: "As for time, it's almost time."

He looked to the north.

In the extreme northern wilderness of the human world, there is another talisman school altar standing.

However, after the host deliberately concealed it, the altar is extremely hidden at the moment, and it is difficult for the outside world to detect it.

It was the Huangtian Altar that came here after being moved.

Recently, most of the Huangtian Dao's high-level elders, led by Chen Ziyang and Xiahou Bo, have gathered here, waiting half patiently and half excitedly.

The head of the sect, Kang Ming, has been in seclusion for some years.

He has already reached the perfection of the ninth heaven, and is now impacting the fairyland.

Relatively young people like Xiahou Bo are still fine, but the old people like Chen Ziyang are in a somewhat complicated mood.

In the past, Kang Ming's ascension to the immortal world was of vital and decisive significance to Huangtian Dao.

Because the Huangtian Sect Altar was formed by the transformation of the high-level elders of the upper three heavens through secret methods, the Huangtian Sect Altar will also have a lifespan limit of 800 years like the upper three heavens cultivators.

The current Huangtian Sect Altar still has a lot of "lifespan", and it is at least 600 years away from the deadline.

But if Huangtian Dao can produce an immortal and get him to preside over it, the sect altar's deadline can be greatly extended, and it will be with the immortals.

The significance of this is of course extraordinary.

...It should have been so.

But today, all this seems to have lost its meaning.

The Longhu Mountain ancestral temple has restored the prosperity before the catastrophe at the end of the Han Dynasty.

The former Heavenly Master Xuan Xiaozi is in charge of the entire Taoist sect.

Huang Tiandao has also returned to the sect twice.

The world is peaceful and everything is settled.

Although there has been no explicit announcement on the public surface, all parties in the world, including Huang Tiandao, have gradually reached a tacit understanding.

Like the White Lotus Sect, although they are not as open as other Taoist and Buddhist holy places, they have also escaped from the state of prohibition in the early years.

However, under the leadership of Kang Ming, Huang Tiandao is even more low-key than the White Lotus Sect.

The Huang Tianzong altar can be moved everywhere, but it is still secluded in the bitter cold and desolate land of the extreme north, and has not expanded to absorb new disciples.

Including Chen Ziyang and others, they all follow Kang Ming's instructions and only practice themselves every day.

It's like a snow plum in the wild mountains and ridges, blooming alone, surviving alone, silently heading towards the destined withering end, without contact with the outside world.

However, even so, everyone was still excited about Kang Ming's hope of becoming an immortal.

How difficult it is to become an immortal.

Whether it is the world of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths that is gradually entering the heyday of cultivation, or the three realms of heaven, earth, and man when they were truly at their peak in the past, becoming an immortal is a goal that only a few people can achieve.

But this still gives everyone in Huang Tiandao a glimmer of hope.

Kang Ming's ascension to immortality is not as high-profile as others.

When he appeared in front of everyone in Huang Tiandao again, everyone was even a little stunned, and their first reaction was to be surprised whether their leader had taken that last step.

But as high-level elders, Xiahou Bo, Chen Ziyang and others soon noticed the changes in their own Huang Tianzong altar.

In this case, it means that Kang Ming succeeded!

"Congratulations to the leader for ascending to immortality, and longevity!" Everyone in Huang Tiandao came to their senses and congratulated Kang Ming.

Kang Ming was calm and announced that he would open a forum to answer questions and solve doubts for his fellow disciples.

"I will leave the human world after that."

Kang Mingyan said, "But I will return to the human world regularly every year. I'm sorry to trouble you all with the affairs of the sect."

The master's implication is that he will not give up Huang Tiandao. Even if he leaves the human world and enters the heaven and earth, he will live alone and hide his name... Xiahou Bo took a deep breath.

Even if you are now an immortal, do you still insist on being the gravekeeper of Huang Tiandao?

…………………………

As a contemporary heavenly master, Zhuo Baojie opened a forum and preached to all the disciples in the mansion after ascending to immortality.

Lei Jun waited until the head disciple opened the forum before leaving Longhu Mountain.

At the same time, he left the human world and went to the heaven, entering the Three Pure Ones and Three Treasures Cave Heaven in Penglai Sea.

My mentor Yuan Mobai is currently practicing here.

As the younger generation in the mansion grows up, the elders of the older generation have begun to rest and practice.

Yuan Mobai, who had been in charge of the ancestral temple of Longhu Mountain for many years, has spent most of his time in the Penglai Sea in the heavenly realm since he ascended to immortality, except for traveling far away from the mountain.

"Huajie has successfully taken this step." Yuan Mobai's smile was warm, much stronger than usual.

Lei Jun sat below him, also smiling.

The news of the new Heavenly Master ascending to heaven naturally attracted the attention of the entire world of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

For the world, it was not only that a new talisman school immortal had emerged from the lineage of the Heavenly Master's Mansion in Longhu Mountain, but also that three generations of Yuan Mobai, Lei Jun, and Zhuo Baojie had all ascended to the fairyland.

Since the catastrophe at the end of the Han Dynasty, this is the first case in the world of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, which naturally attracted congratulations from all sides and was destined to leave a strong mark in history.

Yuan Mobai and Lei Jun, the master and apprentice, were mostly indifferent in their dealings with the world, but at this moment they were also full of satisfaction because of this matter.

"Kang Ming has also ascended to the fairyland."

Yuan Mobai nodded slightly when he heard another piece of news.

Lei Jun: "He wants to enter the earth and live between the mountains and the sea for a while."

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

He will not interfere.

Yuan Mobai: "This world has accumulated a lot of experience, and now more and more people have ascended to immortality. It is getting more and more like the atmosphere before the great catastrophe at the end of the Han Dynasty."

There are a large number of first-level immortal realm cultivators. As time goes on, there may be more second-level and third-level immortal realm cultivators.

"Mr. Zhang and Fellow Daoist Shen have already started preparing for the second level of immortal realm." Lei Jun said.

Yuan Mobai nodded repeatedly.

Shen Xi of Shushan School has ascended to immortality for nearly 80 years. After ascending to immortality, the magical effect of his Zhouguang Immortal Body has slightly weakened compared to before.

It's not that the Zhouguang Immortal Body is no longer magical, but the road to continue to ascend after ascending to immortality is even longer.

But since unloading the burden of the past, Shen Xi's mentality has always been stable and he has been diligent in cultivation.

He was the first to ascend to the immortal realm after Lei Jun and others, and he is currently at the forefront of his peers, constantly advancing towards the second level of the immortal realm.

Yuan Mobai and Lei Jun are now used to calling Zhang Wantong Tianrui, and "Zhang" generally refers to Zhang Hui.

It has been more than sixty years since Zhang Hui became a saint.

He usually spends most of his time traveling around here and even in the Confucian world since the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths became generally peaceful.

It seems that he no longer has the Nine Heavens Perfection and Confucianism to help him, but his natural talent is still progressing rapidly.

Although they ascended to the immortal realm later than Shen Xi, Zhang Hui and Shen Xi are now the first-level immortal realm cultivators who are at the forefront and are closest to the second level of the immortal realm.

In recent years, both of them have begun to make final preparations to impact a higher realm.

"Master and Third Junior Brother have also been diligent in their practice over the years." Lei Jun smiled.

Zhao Qianran of the Wu Sect, Mu Chunyang of the Taoist Sect, and Xiao Yumen of the Confucian Sect opened the gate to immortality earlier, but on the road to the second level of the immortal realm, Lei Jun is more optimistic about his master and junior brother who are ahead.

Yuan Mobai smiled and shook his head: "There is still a gap."

"In addition, Venerable Huiyin of the White Lotus Sect has an unobstructed wisdom root, and his comprehension is far beyond his peers. If he is determined to make progress, he can catch up with Mr. Zhang and Taoist Shen, but Venerable Huiyin has his own plans." Lei Jun continued.

Yuan Mobai nodded.

Not only did they hear about the relevant matters from Wang Guiyuan, but they also had exchanges with Venerable Huiyin himself when they were meditating and discussing the Tao together.

It's not that Huiyin is lazy, not determined to make progress, or that he is not suitable to concentrate on practicing and improving his cultivation.

It's just that he chose another direction.

Huiyin used to practice Buddhism and vowed to achieve the golden body in one lineage.

If he continued to cultivate the vow lineage of Buddhism, with his qualifications and Buddhist supernatural powers, he would have the hope of achieving the second level of the vow golden body in recent years, from "great use" to "great appearance".

But after Hui Yin achieved the "great use" of the vow golden body, he turned to practice Buddhism of other sects in recent years.

He had previously achieved the nine-layer Dharma body of Buddhism in the three lines of Zen and martial arts, precepts, and hand seals. He continued to practice in these years and successfully achieved the golden body of the Buddhist precepts lineage in the past few years, and cultivated pure nirvana.

In recent years, he has resumed the practice of the Buddhist Zen and martial arts lineage, preparing to achieve the Buddhist Zen and martial arts golden body.

Following Wang Guiyuan to the demon world to save all living beings did not delay the practice of Venerable Hui Yin.

To a certain extent, this trip was more helpful to his subsequent practice.

And the demon world today has changed a lot compared to the past.

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree directly escaped from the current world of demons.

Although the injured Demon Dragon Emperor has a strong ability to recover, if he is not at peace, it will be even more difficult to resist Yan Aoyun who is pressing step by step.

In the end, it also followed the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree and escaped from the world of demons.

Only the Great Destruction Bodhisattva was relatively stubborn and resisted for a long time in the world of demons.

Among the three demons, it is better than the Demon Dragon Emperor in terms of pure frontal lethality and destructive power.

Yan Aoyun's step-by-step attack style was originally conducive to the Great Destruction Bodhisattva to play his strengths.

But since Yan Aoyun dared to do this, it was because he was confident that he was firmly above his opponent.

Although the Great Destruction Bodhisattva resisted for a long time, he had to withdraw from the world of demons in the end.

If it were not for the support of the Demon Dragon Emperor, the Great Destruction Bodhisattva would have been directly suppressed to death by Yan Aoyun in the world of demons and could not escape.

Previously, when the Demon Dragon Emperor was injured, the Great Destruction Bodhisattva did not take advantage of the opportunity to intervene, and now the Demon Dragon Emperor is not returning the favor.

Both sides are considering the loss of the lips and the teeth.

However, the three demons that once brought a long bloody and dark era to the demon world were eventually expelled from this world one after another.

Including the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree that retreated first, the three demons were all injured by Yan Aoyun.

Yan Aoyun traveled between the demon world and the Confucian world for a while, and frightened the three demons so that they dared not come back in a short time, and could only lick their wounds in the outer universe.

Yan Zi was not interested in fame and did not show his sainthood in the demon world on a large scale. After expelling the three demons, he retreated behind the scenes, leaving the stage to Wang Guiyuan, Huiyin and other Buddhist masters and monks.

Wang Guiyuan, Huiyin and others also lived up to expectations, subdued demons on a large scale, and swept away the demons in the three realms of heaven, earth and man who originally followed the Great Destruction Bodhisattva.

Although it was no longer the style of the Buddhist Pure Land in the past, there were still demonic winds everywhere, and demonic auras were rampant, but the end of the Dharma era finally showed signs of coming to an end.

As time went on, with the continuous efforts of Wang Guiyuan and other Buddhist monks, this world is expected to return to peace in the future.

In the Confucian world, Jiao Feiyang and other great Confucians are currently focusing more on Tianmojing and Taiyi World.

After Yan Aoyun successfully expelled the three demons, although he still traveled between the demon world and the Confucian world, he then paid more attention to the Taiyi world.

Yan Zi did not get carried away.

Although he was very successful in clearing the demon world, the problem in the Taiyi world might be more serious.

The manic and chaotic Hundred Eyes Demon Tree was the first to flee among the three demons, and the reason was not fear.

Instead, Taiyi Wu Zun was controlling it to retreat and preserve its strength.

This strength was preserved, which caused the demon world to be swept away by Yan Aoyun faster, and the Taiyi world was strengthened.

Without passing through the Abyss of Time, it would be difficult to travel between the worlds, and even the top masters might get lost in the vast void outside the domain.

But the Hundred Eyes Demon Tree is closely related to Taiyi Wu Zun. It has the clearest signposts to go to the Taiyi world.

As expected, news soon came that the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree had also appeared in the Taiyi World.

It certainly didn't dare to invade the Rulin World through Tianmojing to face Yan Aoyun directly.

But if Yan Aoyun wanted to enter the Taiyi World again, the difficulty would also increase sharply.

Taiyi Wuzun's own strength has always been strong.

The tug-of-war between the two sides over the portals of Tianmojing and Taiyi World has continued over the years.

Xu Yuanzhen still stayed there with great interest.

Tang Xiaotang recently returned to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths World and came to the Three Pure Ones and Three Treasures Cave Heaven in Penglai Sea.

She will impact the third level of the fairyland here and the realm of returning to the true self in three days.

"Hua Jie has also reached the level of a celestial being, which is a cause for celebration!" Tang Xiaotang sighed, "Junior nephew Hua Wei, Rong Rong and Fei Er still need some years to achieve this goal, maybe Xu Hai will be able to take this step faster."

Yuan Mobai smiled, "Just proceed step by step."

Tang Xiaotang was eager to try, "What Junior Uncle said is right, but while proceeding step by step, it does not affect the momentum. This time I will strive to rush all the way up, to the level of a celestial being, to return to the true self in three days, anyway, I must be faster than Senior Sister!"

Lei Jun did not object, "The way that suits you is the best way."

There are differences between people after all.

The way that suits others may not be suitable for you.

For example, Tang Xiaotang, Han Xiaofei, An Buzheng and others have always been making great strides, constantly striving to improve, and paying attention to momentum.

For example, Wang Guiyuan, Yuan Mobai, Chu Kun, Feng Ting and others, most of the time, the word "stable" is the first priority.

As for Lei Jun, Zhao Chanyang, Xu Yuanzhen, Cheng Rongrong, Chi Haifeng, etc., they are relatively "showy"...

Tang Xiaotang suddenly narrowed his eyes, glanced at Lei Jun beside him, and coughed dryly:

"Lei Jun, you... how far are you from the cave truth?"

The Taoist talisman school usually regards the mysteriousness obtained when the fifth level of the ninth heaven of the cave god is perfected as the bridge to the mystery.

This stage is also called the cave god's participation in the mystery.

It refers to the fairyland on the next level, that is, the cave realm, so it is called opening the fairy gate to the cave to ascend to the immortal.

The last stage of the third level of the fairyland or the third level of the cave is called the three days of returning to the truth, also known as the return to the truth through the mystery.

It refers to the legendary cave realm on the next level.

Returning to the truth is not the real cave truth after all.

And the monks of the talisman school have always been on the path of perceiving the nature of heaven and earth and constantly improving their own lives.

When the eighth level of the Cave God is reached, the Divine Court Universe is cultivated. From then on, the universe in the body becomes the Divine Court, then the Mahayana Dao Scene, and then the Dao Scene becomes the Three Heavens Mysterious Wall, which is perfected step by step until the cultivator who finally cultivates his life and nature is like another real heaven and earth.

When reaching the realm of the Cave True Realm, returning to the original state, the Dao Scene Universe disappears and is completely in harmony with life and nature.

What is transformed is called the Three Caves and Three Purities Realm.

The three Qis of Yuqing, Taiqing, and Shangqing flow in it, and the spirit is not mixed. They are born in heaven and earth, and their achievements are unpredictable. They are originally the same as the Dao Qi and have the same profound meaning.

When fighting with external enemies, while basically invalidating the opponent's various means, they themselves are ethereal and unpredictable, with endless changes, as if they are one with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Not only the Taoist talisman school cultivators, but also the Taoist Danding School Zhenzhen ancestors who returned to the void and merged with the Dao in history have appeared in similar situations.

At this level, the Great Dao has different paths and all things return to one. Even if there are still some differences, they are limited and almost two sides of the same coin.

And Taoist practitioners who have reached this level are conventionally called Tianzun.
