Chapter 222 No one who has been to Resentment Mountain can escape
Identity is a very strange thing.
Intangible, it is just a concept that exists in people's minds.
But this kind of thinking can form a hierarchy and form a rule for superiors and subordinates.
Just like Xu Mo, when he came to Jade Court to watch, he was just a guest at most, but now, he is regarded as the 'second ancestor' of the Sanqing Sect.
His high status is equivalent to a crow turning into a phoenix.
Even the old Taoist priest Xuan Yizi changed his clothes and took the only two Taoist priests left in the temple, Xuan Zhenzi and Xuan Nianzi, to pay homage to Xu Mo.
Xu Mo also understood that this was a ritual.
Ritual has been around since ancient times. It seems meaningless, but in fact it is not.
If it is really meaningless, it will not be passed down from ancient times to the present.
It is a special kind of 'thought power', which can only be implanted in people's hearts after a ritual. This matter has already begun, or has become a fact.
Just like Xu Mo is the second ancestor.
After the ceremony, although there were only three Taoist priests, no one dared to deny it, and no one would disrespect the order of the second ancestor.
Xuan Yizi had the highest status before, so he couldn't let go of Yuyan Temple, so no one can give up the temple.
But now that Xu Mo had the highest status and ordered them to pack their bags and abandon the view to escape, Xuan Yizi also had to obey the order.
Of course, Xu Mo actually didn’t know how to pack his things and leave.
According to Xuan Yizi and others, the strangeness in the Resentment Mountain is unfathomable. In fact, the place they are in is only the outer edge of the Resentment Mountain and has not entered the real Resentment Mountain at all.
"It is rumored that there is an immortal in the mountain, and it is difficult to get close. Even if you get close to the mountain, you cannot come out. This is true for people, and it is also strange!" Xuan Zhenzi and others have stayed here for more than sixty years. It is not in vain, they know a lot
matter.
Some of the information was gleaned from the mouths of the few surviving 'people', and some of the information was revealed 'strangely'.
Of course, things that are weird may not be believable.
Conversely, the same goes for what people say.
"Second Ancestor, Senior Uncle Xuan Yi, Senior Brother Xuan Zhen, I once heard a rogue cultivator say that as long as you are in Resentment Mountain, no matter the outer or inner mountains, you cannot get out. Even if you can escape, you will inevitably die."
Xuan Nianzi, the youngest in the Taoist temple, said.
He is Xuan Zhenzi's junior brother. He looks to be in his twenties, but is actually over eighty years old.
Although the Mountain of Resentment is strange, one thing is very good. People's lifespan seems to be consumed very slowly here. Even if they stay for a long time, they don't seem to have gained many years.
"Perhaps, there is something strange inside our bodies!" Xuan Nianzi guessed.
Xu Mo comforted the three Taoist priests.
"Even so, it should be a small amount of weirdness, otherwise, we would have died long ago, or become that kind of monster. The road of cultivation is rugged and difficult, so we should face the difficulties and persevere!"
That being said, we still have to find ways to solve the problems that need to be overcome.
At this moment, the outside of the Yuting Temple is surrounded by strange things. There are magic weapons in the temple, so those strange people dare not approach. However, Xuan Zhenzi said that the magic power of the magic tools is weakening. In the past, the strange people did not dare to come forward when they were hundreds of feet away. Now,
It's already within ten feet.
"Perhaps after a while, we won't be able to control them anymore!"
Xu Mo was very curious about the magical artifact in Guanzhong, so Sandao took Xu Mo to see it. In the Sanqing Hall, Yuanshi Tianzun in the middle was holding an object.
It's a lamp.
The lights are always on, but they are very weak at the moment.
"This lamp is a Yuyan lamp, which is the most precious treasure in the temple. It used to be much brighter, but in Mount Resentment, the light gradually dimmed. I am really afraid that one day it will go out. By then, I am afraid that the Yuyan Temple will be destroyed.
day."
Xuan Yizi said.
Xu Mo took a closer look.
The flame of this lamp is like a bean, and it does have some magical power.
Since the Sanqing Great Sect was created by the time-travelling predecessor, then this thing should have been created by the other party as well.
"With this thing, it shouldn't be difficult to get out of trouble."
Xu Mo was determined.
But before leaving, Xu Mo had to do one more thing.
Understand the cultivation method in Yuting Temple.
This is what Xu Mo cares about most.
"The method of Yu Yan Guan has the same origin as that of the great teachers of the Three Qing Dynasties, which are "Tourning in and Moving Qi", "Eight Views of the Sacred Platform", and "Twenty-Four Huangting True Alchemy Secrets".
Xuan Zhenzi explained the exercises and there are also manuscripts.
It can be seen that these are the real family assets of Yuyan Temple. If it were anyone else, it would be impossible to take them out, and they would not be left behind even if they were burned.
But if the second ancestor wants to see it, no one can stop it.
Xu Mo immediately read and studied it carefully.
The three exercises can be said to be three steps. From bottom to top, after completing one, you can complete the second one, until you reach the final "Twenty-Four Huangting True Alchemy Techniques".
If you complete the last one, you will basically have entered a very advanced realm.
According to the Sanqing Sect, they already belong to land gods.
This 'immortal' is naturally different from the current 'fake immortals' and 'weird immortals'. It is an immortal in the true sense of Xu Mo's understanding.
After reading it briefly, Xu Mo knew that such practice was theoretically feasible.
It just takes a very long time.
Units must be measured in hundreds of years, and one or two hundred years is not enough.
At least three, four, five, six or seven are all possible.
This is the true method Xu Mo wants.
Although it takes a very long time to practice, as long as you are willing to study, it may be shortened after multiple iterations.
As for the difficulty of training, Xu Mo hasn't practiced it yet, so naturally he doesn't know.
But Xuan Zhenzi and the others practiced.
"Taoist Priest Xuanzhen, which chapter have you reached?" Xu Mo asked curiously.
When it comes to cultivation, there are currently three in Yuyan Temple. In fact, the one with the highest cultivation is Xuan Zhenzi. Although Xuan Yizi has a higher seniority, his cultivation is not as good as Xuan Zhenzi.
So when it comes to cultivation, you don’t just have to look at time.
It also depends on talent, perseverance, understanding, and resources.
Four elements are indispensable.
That's why Xu Mo asked Xuan Zhenzi, who had the highest level of cultivation.
"Back to the Second Ancestor, Xuanzhen has reached the entry-level level in the "Twenty-Four Huangting True Alchemy Techniques"."
"Oh, how long have you been practicing?"
"Being involved in the Mountain of Resentment, I have been cultivating for thirty-seven years. However, I have no sense of the years in the Mountain of Resentment. I only know that a long time has passed. I don't know how many years exactly."
Xu Mo did the math. In the previous thirty-seven years, plus the sixty years in Resentment Mountain, Xuan Zhenzi had been practicing for at least ninety-seven years.
Good guy.
It's really long enough.
If those weird immortal cultivators outside have practiced the "Secret Technique of the Human Pill" in the past ninety years, they will probably become immortals. Even if they haven't, their cultivation is stuck due to some reasons.
Furthermore, as I asked just now, Xuan Zhenzi is still a rare talent in the Yutingguan lineage that can only be seen in a century.
In fact, he is the one with the best cultivation talent, the strongest perseverance, and the highest understanding in this lineage.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Xuan Zhenzi had practiced the "Secret Technique of the Human Pill", he would have become an immortal long ago based on his ability.
This is the difference!
"No wonder, the orthodox cultivation method cannot compete with those evil ways. It has too many shortcomings and the price-performance ratio is too low!"
Xu Mo shook his head helplessly.
However, Xu Mo was willing to give it a try. In his previous practice, he had not actually focused entirely on one system. One reason was that the techniques were incomplete, and the other reason was that these techniques, when traced back to their origins, actually originated from a strange place on the shore.
If you practice according to the opponent's method, you will actually become a fat pig raised in the opponent's pig pen.
If you gain weight, you will have to get a knife sooner or later.
