Chapter 74 The mountain gate is empty
What is the ultimate goal of practicing Taoism?
If it were in the current era, there might be many answers.
However, in ancient times, when practicing Taoism was to cultivate the mind, it ultimately wanted to shed its old skin and ascend to the legendary fairy world.
However, nowadays, the spiritual energy in the world is thin, the Taoist sect has withered, and I haven't heard of the fairy tales for a long time, so many people in the Taoist sect will inevitably become a little confused.
It is possible to allow Longhu Mountain to join forces with Shanhaidao and take great risks to calculate all the Taoist sects. Apart from cultivating immortals and asking about Taoism, Zong Hao and I really can't think of anything else.
I was a little lost and asked, "The fairy world really exists?"
The people in Longhu Mountain are not idiots. If it is really for this purpose, they may have mastered some secrets that other Taoist sects do not know. Obviously, Shanhaidao also knows such secrets.
Regarding my question, Zong Hao smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed, "Who knows! The secular world is connected to the Yin and Yang realm, and is connected to the underworld. It is hard to say whether the rumored immortal world also has a channel connected here. There are some vague records in Maoshan's classics, but it is said very vague, and it seems to have something to do with the underworld, and I don't know whether it is true or false..."
Upon hearing this, I frowned and said in a deep voice: "Is it possible that the purpose of Shanhaidao's intention to borrow from the underworld is to go to the legendary fairy world?"
Zong Hao was silent and said after a long time, "After seeing Master, you may have an answer!"
We stopped talking and rushed to Maoshan.
When we came to Maoshan, under Zong Hao's leadership, we came to a remote valley. He shook his hand and threw out a talisman. The talisman light instantly sank into a cliff and disappeared.
After a few breaths, no response.
Zong Hao frowned and murmured: "It's really closed? It feels something is wrong!"
Then, Zong Hao directly took out his black long sword, cut his fingertips, and a wisp of blood appeared on it, and the bright red light flashed slightly.
Swish!
Zong Hao slashed out with a sword, and a faint black and red light burst out from the sword body and penetrated into the cliff.
A ripple appeared at the cliff, and Zong Hao and I flashed and sank directly into it.
"Boom..."
There were roaring sounds in my ears, and thunder flashed, making my body tense and I became alert.
"Is this your Maoshan Mountain Protection Array?"
I couldn't help asking Zong Hao and said, "Can you treat us as foreign enemies invading?"
Zong Hao frowned and did not respond to me. Golden lights bloomed all over his body, and illusory golden runes flashed. Although the thunders seemed fierce, they seemed to be able to distinguish Zong Hao's identity and did not attack us.
After passing through the mountain protection formation, before I could breathe a sigh of relief, the scene in front of me shocked me.
I heard from Zong Hao that even if Maoshan is not as good as Longhu Mountain, it is still an existence like a holy place for immortals, but what have I seen now?
The mountains collapsed and the ground was full of devastation, and it was full of chaos.
Not to mention the full spiritual energy, there is not even a slight vitality here. The dead energy spreads, like a dead land. The trees, flowers and plants wither, the mountains, rivers and rivers have lost their vitality, and it feels more deadly than the other side of the Yin and Yang Realm.
What happened here in Maoshan?
Zong Hao's face looked ugly, his hands were shaking a little. He took a deep breath and ran towards a place. I was worried that there would be any danger here, so I hurriedly followed.
After a short period of time, Zong Hao and I walked around most areas of Maoshan, without even seeing a ghost.
There were no bloodstains of corpses, Maoshan's collection of classics, etc., all of them had been emptied. It felt strange. It didn't seem like there was some powerful force attacking Maoshan, but it seemed that all the people on Maoshan had evacuated.
Zong Hao's face also improved a little, a little confused.
Finally, we arrived at the forbidden area of Maoshan. According to Zong Hao, this is the place where the ancestors of Maoshan were buried.
When we came here, we found that the tombs had been opened and the tombs were empty. At the same time, in this bone-burying place, a stone tablet more than three feet high stood.
There are some runes carved on the stone tablet. Zong Hao shook out a talisman with a calm face. After the talisman light penetrated into the stone tablet, the runes on the stone tablet swirled, and a light flashed, and a thin old man appeared in the light.
"Master!" Zong Hao blinked his eyes and was a little excited.
The old man Phantom did not respond to Zong Hao's words, it seemed that it was just an image left by Master Zong Hao.
"Boy, if you can see the thing left by your master, it means that your master has left here! Everyone in Maoshan has left and I wanted to take you with me, but you still have a great opportunity here. If you leave at this time, it would be a loss! At least three to five months, or more than one year, your greatest opportunity will come. When you wait, your master will come to pick you up..."
"Your opportunity, there is a big secret on Jiang He, but unfortunately my master can't figure out what it is! If you see him, tell him that his grandfather has left with us, so there is no need to look for it anymore! The Jiang family is the most special in ancient times, and he is also the one who must win in Shanhaidao..."
"The Taoist lord of Shanhaidao has a deep connection with the eight royal families. Destroying the Taoist throne of the Chinese is paving the way for the future. You kid are careful in the future. Follow Jiang He, he will have great luck. Shanhaidao may fall into his hands in the future. This is the secret of deducing the loss of ten years of life for his master... Damn, if it weren't for the big secret of Jiang He, how could the teacher lose ten years of life for his master at once? If he hadn't deduced the loss of a vague secret, he would have lost ten years of life for his master at once. After deducing it, he would have only got a vague secret of heaven. It would be a big loss..."
The phantom left by Zong Hao's master tells a lot, but he didn't mention the things that Zong Hao and I care about the most!
Where did those people and grandfather in Maoshan go?
Maoshan seems to have predicted the upcoming chaos in the Taoist sect in the Huaxia. Why did Maoshan, a major Taoist sect, migrate directly at this critical moment?
To put it bluntly, isn’t this the act of a coward?
But, I also know that this matter is definitely not that simple!
After the phantom left by Zong Hao's master disappeared, Zong Hao and I remained silent and digested the things that the phantom said.
After a long time, Zong Hao took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and cursed hatefully: "What is the point of leaving me behind?"
I sighed, scratched my head and said, "I'm a little confused now. Come on, tell me, why did my grandfather get involved with you Maoshan?"
Zong Hao gave me a blank look and said angrily: "Do you think I know it? The amount of messages left by my master's immortality is a bit large, and I am still confused until now!"
I spread my hands and said helplessly: "What should I do now?"
Zong Hao waved his hand irritably and said, "You make an idea, I will go wherever you go!"
I thought about it, and said, "Let's go back to the school first! Ask your sister's information on the special service team and see the movements in Shanhaidao. This time, this time, I feel a big whirlpool hit me. If the wind direction is wrong, I'm going to hide in a place for a while!"
"Where to hide?"
"Are you interested in the land of the demon clan?"
