Chapter One Thousand and Nine
Xuan Jing entered Qingyun Mountain and met Ling Hongcai who was directing a group of young Taoist priests to sweep.
The current Qingyun Mountain Blessed Land is no longer what it was when Lingqing was around.
With the foundation of five mountain roots donated by Li Li, and the conditioning of boundary tree.
Now the five peaks of Qingyun are already extremely tall.
In addition to the original site on Qingyun Gushang, there are also more than ten palaces and temples scattered on the other four mountains.
Lingji, Wenjun and Yuwei also each accepted disciples early.
With the number of disciples and disciples, the original Daoqing Temple could no longer live in it, so it had to open up places on other mountains.
Qingyun Gu was chosen by the viewer, Taoshan in the south belonged to Wenjun, and Yuwei chose Taishan in the east.
The three of them each opened a branch.
There is also the outer sect of Taoist Yunsheng. The original four people, Ling Hongcai, Linghongyou, Linghongcai and Man Jianjun, officially became disciples of Taoist Yunsheng.
This outer sect is responsible for the chores in the mountains.
Basically, all those who are not valued by the three spiritual branches and have the qualifications to practice have become members of the outer sect.
These Lingqings knew about it before, but he had already handed over the Taoism to Lingji at the beginning.
He would have the opportunity to worry about how it would develop, and he would not care too much about it.
Ling Hongcai had already cultivated into a human immortal at this time.
Looking at Xuan Jing's appearance, he was startled for a moment, and then when he was about to welcome him, he found that his cultivation was not as good as his innate ability, and he couldn't help but feel doubtful in his heart.
After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward and said, "I don't know..."
Although Ling Qing and Xuan Jing were in two different realms, they still had the same mind. Seeing his doubts, they smiled and said: "I have important matters and cannot come down. This is my clone."
"Greetings to the Master!" Ling Hongcai immediately bowed his head and said.
Then he called to the disciples on the side: "Everyone, come and pay homage to the old temple master!"
These disciples had also seen Ling Qing's portrait during their morning classes every day, and then they understood Ling Hongcai's greeting.
They all worshiped: "Greetings to the old temple master!"
Ling Qing didn't have much cultivation now, so he just nodded and said: "Okay, okay, everyone, get up."
After all the disciples dispersed and went about their business, Lingqing asked Linghong: "How has everything been going in these years?"
】
"Back to the temple master." Ling Hongcai said: "Everything is fine in the temple. Master Xuanji Temple is extremely intelligent. Our Daoqing Temple's reputation is growing day by day in the hands of Master Xuanji Temple."
"Where are Wenjun and Yuwei?"
"After the third sister left, Mr. Xuan soon took care of his worldly affairs and ascended to heaven.
Xuanwei, on the other hand, has been too slow in her formation practice and still stays in the mountain."
Lingqing paused after hearing this and sighed: "The third aunt has already left."
Before he went to the Yanhuang World, he was still well, but he had already stayed in the Earthly Immortal World for nearly two hundred years.
Even if there is a miraculous elixir, Sangu can no longer practice cultivation, and she will reach her end of life.
"Yes, not only that, the uncle, eldest brother and sister-in-law are also gone."
The uncle, elder brother and sister-in-law he was talking about were none other than the elder uncle Ling Zhenggu, the uncle Ling Hongye and the aunt.
"Not only that, Dazhong is not a monastic either. He is probably not a few years old now, and his wife left earlier.
Once Dazhong leaves, Xuanji will probably ascend to the upper realm."
After listening to Ling Hongcai's words, Ling Qing couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Time has finally arrived, and it’s time for familiar people to gradually leave.
"Is Brother Zhong on the mountain?"
"Yes, he is on Qingyun Gu, guarding the Sutra Pavilion like the original uncle."
Lingqing nodded and walked towards Qingyun Gu.
On the way, I looked at the crowds of people on Qingshui Lake to the west and asked, "Is that an inspiration for entertaining guests?"
"They are all the leading figures of each faction today, the group who went on a mission to Japan with the viewer."
"Good."
Lingqing saw that Zhang Yuanyi and Sun Yuwei were fighting, so he said something casually and stopped paying attention.
When we arrived at Guding, the original Daoqing Temple remained the same, but it only occupied a small part of the now vast Guding.
This place has been turned into the Ancestral Hall by Ling Ji.
The Guanyun Tower in Gujiao was originally used for transit, but the main hall was enlarged and rebuilt to serve as the facade of Daoqing Temple.
From a distance, Lingqing saw Lingzhong who was as old as the great grandfather before.
As he got closer, Lingzhong also saw Lingqing and couldn't help but smile.
His speech was sound and he was in good spirits. He patted his side and said, "Da Qing is here, sit down."
"Brother Zhong has a good attitude." Ling Qing sat down beside him and held his hand.
"That's right. If you eat well and sleep well, my son really has a chance of becoming an immortal. If it weren't for this bad old man like me, he would have ascended to heaven like Wenjun.
Can it be good?" Lingzhong laughed, patted Lingqing's hand and said, "Thank you, Daqing, thank you.
It’s a pity that I’m not a monk, so I can’t enjoy it.”
Lingqing also clapped his hands, speechless.
Fate is something that cannot be explained clearly.
He didn't dare to promise Lingzhong anything about his next life.
For Lingji and the others, Lingqing has a master-disciple relationship with them. No matter how they reincarnate, he can find them.
But spiritual loyalty, to be honest, family relationships are not that important to the endless reincarnation.
Each life has different family ties. If you really count them, it would be a mess.
Unless the family affection between the two has transcended reincarnation.
Otherwise, if you don't encounter it and don't check it out, you won't be able to find it at all.
However, in this vast universe, how could he know where the other party could be reincarnated?
"The Tao is not far away." Lingqing consoled him, "Brother Zhong has become bound to the Tao in this life.
From now on, let’s be at peace with the Tao, and we will have the destiny to do so.”
"Haha, it doesn't matter. For me, having you as a brother and having a child like You Ling is a blessing I have earned over countless lifetimes. It's worth it."
Seeing that he was indeed open-minded, Lingqing laughed and the two started chatting again.
They were all talking about interesting things from childhood.
It took too long, and for Lingzhong, all he could remember were happy things.
Many of them are proud of themselves.
Lingqing didn't remind him and just followed his words.
After talking for a while, Lingzhong was afraid of delaying Lingqing's affairs, so he asked him to go about his business. Lingqing said goodbye to him and turned around to Qingling Pavilion.
Taoist Yunsheng has already been waiting for him here.
Taoist Yunsheng is also a perfect human being, but his qualifications only go so far.
After meeting Lingqing, he also knew that Lingqing had just returned from Lingzhong.
I couldn't help but sigh: "Lingzhong's end is not far away."
"If there are no accidents, it will only take a year at most."
Ling Qing nodded. Although he was not at a high level now, his vision was still there.
"Really?" Taoist Yun Sheng was startled. Although he was aware of it, he was not so precise.
"No wonder, the master of Xuanji Temple has handed over the things in the temple to Wei Yanzi early in the past few years."
Wei Yanzi was Lingji's great disciple, whom Lingqing had met before. He was quite steady, yet alert.
