In the 40th year of Jingtong of the Great Song Dynasty, Emperor Jingtong, who had been in charge of the Song Dynasty for more than 40 years, Yu Long Bintian, died of illness only eight months after the new emperor came to the throne.
After many rounds of games, the master of the Qingniu Palace in Lin'an was finally invited to cast a magic spell to calculate the source of fortune, and the young prince Zhao Yuting was selected to succeed him as the new emperor. The new emperor was then renamed Zhao Zhu, and the next year the name was changed to "Shun".
sky".
At this time, the Great Yuan Dynasty had changed seven emperors, and all the tribes in the Western Regions were revolted, as if the building was about to collapse. It was a pity that the Great Song Dynasty had reconciled with the Great Yuan Dynasty after the death of the hero Guo Jing, and then the world was peaceful and the world was peaceful.
During the Qing Dynasty, military armaments became increasingly relaxed in recent decades.
Five years ago, there was a war in Annan. Niuhou barbarians coerced the crown prince of the Chen Dynasty to rebel. The Song Dynasty sent a hundred thousand troops to suppress them. They lost their troops and generals. They fought fiercely until the early spring of this year before annihilating the rebels. The prince of the Chen Dynasty and the Niuhou barbarian chieftain were driven to Lin'an and beheaded.
Although the Song Dynasty has been bragging about this battle to pacify Annan, the impression of a powerful and capable dynasty on the outside has awakened countless promising people. The annexation of other lands, a large number of refugees, the proliferation of banknotes, inflation and other phenomena have become even more serious.
This made many ministers of the current dynasty propose to imitate Jiading and Zhaoyuan's past events of the two dynasties and carry out reforms.
It's just that the dragon slayer has long since turned into an evil dragon. The beneficiaries of the reform back then are now the Gong Gong princes in the court. If they want to reform, they will have to eat their cake. Naturally, there will be a quarrel and they will not be able to pass.
The Yuan Dynasty and the Song Dynasty were declining day by day, but there were also great changes in the world. Fourteen martial saints appeared in the Quanzhen Immortal Sect over the years, and the leader Wu Xufa died in the 30th year of Jingtong.
Although the Quanzhen Immortal Sect has not had an immortal since the death of Master Wu, the new leader Qiu Yangqi and the fourteen masters of the Yang generation are still an irresistible force that is enough to suppress the martial arts world.
However, after the emergence of Wu Xufa, in order to establish the image of the Immortal Sect, and at the same time to sharpen his disciples, leader Qiu reformed the world's Taoism, and taught some Quanzhen Immortal Techniques regardless of any sect or sect.
Zixiao Palace will accept fewer disciples and prepare to train them carefully.
Afterwards, he also ordered that all Taoist sects and sects who have great masters after their birth can worship in the Zixiao Palace to practice the foundation-building immortal method. From then on, the Quanzhen Sect’s Zixiao Palace, which is in charge of the world’s path, actually became a real world.
The Lord of common respect.
In just eleven years, the Zixiao Palace of the Quanzhen Sect has become the most holy place in the world, and no longer interferes with the affairs of the world. It is truly called the ancestral palace of the Quanzhen Immortal Sect by the world.
The Zixiao Palace of the Quanzhen Sect is far away from the disputes in the world. The nine major sects in the world are headed by Yuqing Palace, Qingniu Palace, Huashan Sect, Shaolin Temple, Zhongnan Sect, Emei Sect, Kunlun Sect, Dalun Temple and Beggar Clan. They are known as
It is one of the four sects of the Two Palaces and Two Temples, and the remaining thirteen sects, including the Kongtong Sect, Taishan Sect, Longmen Sect, and Suishan Sect, are among the top sects in the world.
However, the Ming Cult, which had disappeared for more than ten years, suddenly reappeared. For unknown reasons, Xie Xun, the deputy leader of the Ming Cult, killed the Kongxing monk of the Shaolin Temple, the Taoist monk of the Yuqing Palace, the Taoist priest of the Qingniu Palace, the elders of the Huashan Sect, and the leader of the Kunlun Sect, Bai
Lu Zi and Fang Dongbai, the first elder of the Beggar Clan, were said to have died because of the enmity between Cheng Kun and Xie Xun.
.
Suddenly, the Mingjiao, which had a bad reputation due to conflicts with the Beggar Clan, Zhongnan Sect, Shaolin Temple, Kunlun Sect and other sects for hundreds of years, completely turned into a demon sect. All the sects in the Central Plains massacred the Mingjiao disciples, and the world was filled with chaos.
There were also waves of bloodshed.
In order to stabilize the situation in the world, Shaolin Monk Kongjian, Master Song of the Zhongnan Sect, and Taoist Master Guangling of Qingniu Palace personally set out to find Xie Xun's traces, hoping to capture him in one fell swoop.
While the Central Plains Mingjiao was fighting with the Nine Families, far away in the secret valley under the Jade Dragon Peak in West Kunlun, Bai Yuan'er kept crying with tears in his eyes.
In front of the thatched cottage, although the faces of Lin Qingxuan, Li Mochou and Xiao Longnv did not change, their eyes revealed sadness.
In front of the three people were Bai Yuan'er, who was kneeling and whispering, and Zhou Botong, who was sitting cross-legged with his beard and hair as white as snow. He had changed from his previous appearance of a child with crane hair. His face was pale, his brows were dark, his breath was weak, and his figure was decadent.
You know that your life span is about to end and you are almost dying.
While everyone was still in seclusion, Zhou Botong suddenly called a few people and Bai Yuan'er with a clear whistle, and then explained some funeral arrangements, including burying himself next to Yinggu and taking good care of Bai Yuan'er.
At this time, Zhou Botong was already one hundred and ninety-eight years old, and he had lived to the limit that a mortal body could reach. He had been in seclusion for ten years after returning to the secret realm. He originally wanted to use his own method to strengthen the Yin God to the limit, and then began to temper and practice.
, but after just one step of tempering, the body has reached the point where it is exhausted.
Lin Qingxuan noticed Zhou Botong's intentions when he heard Zhou Botong's funeral arrangements. He looked at Zhou Botong with a sad smile and said, "Brother, do you really have the heart to leave me behind? If you were reincarnated and re-cultivated, with your Yinshen great achievements
Your cultivation level should be able to preserve 90% of your memory. I will lead you to re-enter the Taoist practice. You will be able to set foot on the immortal way again in twenty years at most. You will be able to reach your current level of cultivation again within a period of time. When the time comes, you will slowly refine it.
Isn't Yin Shen bad? Why take such risks."
Zhou Botong tugged on his beard and said: "I have lived for almost two hundred years, and it would be boring for me to become a child and live for several more decades. What's the point of this?"
The most interesting thing in the world is practicing martial arts. With your help, brother, the method of tempering the Yinshen that I created has gradually become perfect. I think I will continue to practice like this!
Hehe, since you also said that this method is quite good, it will save you a lot of hard work when transforming into a Yang God after you master it, and after my death, my body transformed into a Yin God will last for four to five hundred years, then
What else would I do if I were reincarnated?
It is better to temper the divine body directly with the body of the Yin God, and then transform into the Yang God and become immortal and immortal."
Zhou Botong's words were so convincing that Lin Qingxuan and others were speechless after listening to them.
It turns out that for the past ten years, Lin Qingxuan and Zhou Botong have been practicing in seclusion every one or two years. Lin Qingxuan also taught Zhou Botong the method of tempering the Yins and Gods by deducing the Tianyan Mirror to make up for the gaps, and Zhou Botong continued to practice.
pondering.
About four years ago, Lin Qingxuan made the Yin Shen Dacheng. Then he started to use the Yin Shen to escape from the body according to the mental tempering method that he had created and deduced 80% of the time. He used spells to visualize the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, beasts and birds, and countless other things.
Scenery of creatures.
The method of tempering the Yin God created by Lin Qingxuan is to combine the visualization method to transform the Yin God, and realize the mystery of the transformation of heaven and earth.
The magic is also combined with the illusion of Taishi. When the Yin God can turn the void into reality in the illusion of Taishi, the tempering is completed, and the body of the Yin God has mastered a trace of the transformation of heaven and earth.
At that time, you can try to transform yin into yang and build the method of immortal yang god.
This method created by Lin Qingxuan is very practical and completely feasible.
Because the Yin God is originally formed by condensing the spiritual will into divine thoughts. The Yin God visualizes all things in the world and is free between heaven and man. To realize the changes in the world is to transform the Yin God into a small world. After a long period of time, the Yin God can slowly transform into a small world.
The Yin God is tempered and becomes more flexible and indestructible until it merges with the heaven and earth and transforms into the Yang God.
Although the tempering method created by Lin Qingxuan is good, the improvement of visualization practice is too slow. After four years of practice, Lin Qingxuan feels that the Yin spirit has only strengthened by 10%. He wants to temper it to "turn the void into something in a single thought."
Really, the supreme state of "flying hundreds of miles in an instant and traveling around the world" requires forty years of hard work.
Zhou Botong achieved great success in Yin Shen two years ago, and then began to practice the method he created to cultivate Yin Shen.
Zhou Botong's method is more dangerous than Lin Qingxuan's.
The Yin Shen is tempered by leaving the body during the day, and the Yin Shen is sharpened with the help of sunlight. Only when the Yin Shen can no longer be supported can the Yin Shen be put into the body, and then the method of strengthening the body is used to warm and restore it. After a long time, the Yin Shen can be sustained.
It lasts a long time and is not even afraid of the sun.
At that time, you can travel around the world, tempered by the wind of the nine heavens, the fire of the nine earths, and the fierce sun of the nine heavens. Finally, when the Yin God is perfected, you can be infected with a ray of immortal Yang, and then strengthen the Yang until it turns into a pure Yang god.
I have mastered the magic of immortality.
Zhou Botong's method is very good, but it has been verified by the Tianyan Mirror to be an authentic immortal method. However, this method is very dangerous. It is not only painful to practice, but also may damage the foundation of the Yin God if you are not careful. It may take decades to practice again.
To make up for it, the severe ones can only be reborn.
However, even though Zhou Botong's method has many dangers and disadvantages, he has gradually mastered it through repeated practice in two years. The Yin God can leave the body and travel freely during the day. His speed in tempering the Yin God is faster than that of Lin Qingxuan.
More than three times.
If Zhou Botong can live for another twenty years, he will be able to reach the perfect state of cultivating the Yin God and be infected with a ray of Yang. Then he can start to transform into a Yang God with twice the result with half the effort.
However, things did not go as expected. Zhou Botong entered the body to recuperate after practicing the Yin Shen practice on this day. Suddenly he found that the results of several days were no longer as effective as half a day. Only after he came out of concentration did he realize that his life span was about to expire, and his body's qi, blood and internal strength were rapidly declining.
, at this rate, he will die in three days at most.
Zhou Botong instantly accepted the fact that his body was not up to par, and then let out a clear whistle to summon Lin Qingxuan and others, telling the three of them that he would die soon, and at the same time expressed that he did not intend to be reincarnated and practice cultivation again, but that he wanted to practice directly as a Yin god.
thoughts.
"Transcendence in yin, turning yin into yang, yin being exhausted and yang being pure, having a body outside the body, being detached and ascending to immortality..."
This is the final outline of the immortal method created by Zhou Botong. Lin Qingxuan knew that Zhou Botong wanted to take this path, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly asked: "Brother, if you lose your body, where will the Yin God be stored?
"
Zhou Botong laughed loudly and said: "The Qi of the Earth Veins Tomb is the most Yin. I settled down in the Yin area and used the Yin God to practice visualization. In the future, I will be able to make up for the deficiency with the Yin Qi of the earth, lungs, and warm and nourish the Yin God.
It doesn’t matter if you have a body or not, you can temper the Yin spirit. Brother, I can be considered as the founder of the Yin cultivation lineage."
Lin Qingxuan used the Tianyan Mirror to copy Zhou Botong's latest mental method. He poured all his true energy into the treasured mirror and practiced it for half an hour. It was not until there was not much true energy left in his body that he saw the ripples flowing on the mirror, and the seven or eight sentences of the mental method were
You can also be sure that there are no errors.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Lin Qingxuan whispered: "Now that the elder brother has made up his mind, the younger brother will no longer try to persuade you, but you must be more careful when practicing."
Zhou Botong nodded and said: "If I don't leave a way out for myself, I just hold on to the idea that if I can't become a Yang Shen, I would rather be a gray. I have indeed lived enough. If I didn't want to see how far Xianlu can go, I would
I have long wanted to go down and see if there is an underworld."
Lin Qingxuan and Zhou Botong had the best relationship, and were as close as brothers. Since he failed to persuade Zhou Botong, Li Mochou and Xiao Longnu also remained silent.
Lin Qingxuan and his two daughters sat cross-legged in front of Zhou Botong, clapped their hands and sang loudly: "The Taoist flew to the bright wind, and there were three green birds in Xuandu... After returning to the immortal after taking the food, he fell into a trance, and the immortal corpses in the sky became a forest...
How profound is the heart, the earth, and the heart... Eight thousand years old, there is no sound..."
After Lin Qingxuan sang once, Li Mochou, Xiao Longnu, and Zhou Botong sang together the second time: "The Taoist flew to Langfengcen... There are three green birds in Xuandu... Eight thousand years old...
…Wuyin…”
The song was melodious and desolate, penetrating through the night sky, causing the valley to reverberate, startling birds, and frightening the deer and hares in the forest to flee in panic.
The white ape sat there in confusion, looking at the master with the white beard and the master with the black beard. Although it could not understand what the masters were singing, it guessed that it must be the same as the crow it made when Uncle Eagle died.
The meaning is almost the same.
Thinking of the long-dead sacred eagle, and looking at the white-bearded owner who seemed to be dying, the white ape couldn't help but scream loudly and lowly.
Songs, ape cries, echoes, waterfalls...
Many sounds gathered together, and sounded high and low, before and after, one after another, as if they were playing a piece of heavenly music. After an unknown amount of time, the sounds gradually disappeared one by one, until the only sounds in the valley were the cries of apes.
echo.
After finishing the song, Zhou Botong suddenly salivated at the corners of his mouth and closed his eyes with a smile on his face.
Lin Qingxuan, Li and Long just looked at Zhou Botong intently.
However, the three people's spiritual thoughts clearly saw a translucent Zhou Botong, who was invisible to the naked eye and could only be detected by the spiritual thoughts, floating out of his body. After waving his hands to the three people, he sank into the ground, sinking dozens of times in an instant.
ten feet.
Lin Qingxuan sighed softly and said: "Brother Zhou's Yin Shen has left the body and is hiding in the underground undercurrent to warm up. Don't worry, Long'er, you continue to practice. Baiyuan'er, bury the great master's body."
As he spoke, Lin Qingxuan had already rushed to Yinggu's tomb. With a wave of his right hand, a large ice shovel was formed out of thin air.
Bai Yuan'er picked up Zhou Botong and jumped into the pit, carefully laying him down before jumping out and turning around, whispering reluctantly.
With a thought, Lin Qingxuan used the big shovel to backfill the soil and it turned into white smoke and disappeared. At this time, there was an extra tomb on the side of Yinggu's tomb.
At this time, Li Mochou had already used Qi to grab a stone. With a flash of Xiao Longnu's sword, the stone turned into a smooth stone tablet.
Li Mochou flicked her sleeves and brought the stone tablet to Lin Qingxuan, saying, "Lang Lang, please write something."
Lin Qingxuan moved his fingers and wrote on the stone tablet through the air: "The place where the immortal bones of Zhou Botong, a San member of the Quanzhen Sect, are buried - Lin Qingxuan stands in respect."
Li Mochou recited it once, then clasped her hands and said, "Taoists are real people, real kings, and you are the emperor. This week, my eldest brother has never become a monk but has not entered the world of mortals. This unofficial person is perfect."
Lin Qingxuan turned to look at the two girls, and saw a nervous look in their eyes. Knowing that they saw Zhou Botong's body dying at the end of his life, they also felt a sense of urgency in their hearts. Not to mention them, Lin Qingxuan thought that he was already a hundred years old.
It is inevitable to be nervous when you are fifty years old.
If we calculate that Zhou Botong will die before he is 200 years old, even if Lin Qingxuan took Hualong Shengtian Powder for more than ten years longer than him, he would only live to be over 200 years old at most.
Li Mochou and Xiao Longnu may only live to Zhou Botong's age, so there is not much time left for the three of them.
If they cannot become the Immortal Yang God before they die, most of the three of them will have to be reincarnated and rebuild themselves, and by then there will be a lot of variables.
"Continue to retreat."
Lin Qingxuan disappeared as he spoke.
His chants echoed faintly in the air: "When you refine the qi, the five qi will rise to the vitality. When the three yangs gather at the top, the energy will be full and forgetful. The fetal immortal will transform itself when the yin is exhausted and the yang is pure. Only when there is a body outside the body can the body be expelled and become an immortal.
, the extraordinary and the holy will naturally soar into the sky..."
