Foreigners are just foreigners after all. They have learned Chinese Taoism, but they have not learned the humility of Chinese people.
If you are a Chinese, you will never think of challenging someone when you come to ask for help.
But in Adam's mind, there was no contradiction between the two.
This is a different way of thinking.
Li Muchen had no intention of teaching him anything, not to mention that immortals behave as they please, but Adam's behavior was more in line with the freedom and ease of a cultivator.
Li Muchen also wanted to see the temple master, so he went with Adam.
When I got inside, I found a Taoist priest and asked. The Taoist priest heard that foreign colleagues were visiting, and he took them very seriously. He politely took them to the living room to have tea, and then went to report it himself.
After a while, another Taoist priest came. After being introduced, he learned that he was a knowledgeable guest here. After asking Adam about his purpose, they briefly chatted for a few words and then took the two of them to the Yunji Mountain House at the back.
Anyway, no one asked about Li Muchen along the way. Because Li Muchen looked ordinary and was not a Taoist priest, he was regarded as Adam's guide or translator.
In the mountain house, Jiang Quanlin, the prison director, met them.
Jiang Quanlin was very enthusiastic and said: "Zhongfu Temple is an important overseas branch of our Taoist sect. Your master, Taoist Master Xie Lin, visited Baiyun Temple many years ago, which is also a good story. How is he doing well now?"
Adam said: "My master is very good. Thank you Taoist Master Jiang for your concern."
Jiang Quanlin smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist, you don't have to be polite. Although you are a foreigner, spiritual practice knows no borders. We are all from the same sect, that is, our own family. You will stay in Yunji Garden today and enjoy the sights of the capital in the next few days."
."
Adam said: "Taoist Master Jiang, I'm not here for a trip this time. I'm here with the teacher's orders."
Let’s talk about the pagan attacks on Buddhist and Taoist temples in Los Angeles.
After hearing this, Jiang Quanlin said angrily: "These overseas fanatics don't practice well and engage in sectarian conflicts all day long, which is really against the heart of Tianzun's preaching. Fellow Taoist Chichengzi, don't worry, although Zhongfu Temple is far away in North America, but I
As the ancestral palace of Longmen and the Quanzhen Jungle, Baiyun Temple will certainly not ignore it. You go back and tell the Master that we will send someone to Los Angeles as soon as possible to join you."
Adam was happy in his heart, said "thank you", and asked: "Director Jiang, I wonder who you will send to Los Angeles?"
Jiang Quanlin said a little embarrassedly: "This can only be decided after we discuss it."
Adam said: "I practiced Taoism in North America, and I yearned for China very much. My master said that there are strong Chinese practitioners in large numbers, and there are masters everywhere. Anyone you meet may be a member of the immortal stream."
With that said, he stood up and cupped his hands towards Jiang Quanlin, "Taoist Master Jiang, I want to learn from the seniors of the Huaxia Taoist Sect. Please give me some advice."
Jiang Quanlin was stunned for a moment, frowned and said: "Little fellow Taoist, what do you mean? Are you here for help, or are you here to compete in the gym?"
Adam was also stunned. How could he become a kicker after just asking for advice?
But he still insisted: "Director Jiang, I just want to learn a lesson. Besides, the people you send to Los Angeles must be stronger than me. If you send someone weaker than me, then I might as well not come.
."
Li Muchen almost laughed, this guy was too straightforward.
Sure enough, Jiang Quanlin's face looked a little ugly. If it weren't for the foreign Taoist friends, he would have had an attack at this time.
"Liancheng," Jiang Quanlin said to a young Taoist priest guarding the door, "come and compete with this fellow Taoist Chichengzi. Remember to hit the spot and don't hurt anyone."
"Yes, Master."
The Taoist priest named Liancheng walked in, bowed to Jiang Quanlin, and then turned to face Adam.
Adam looked around and saw that this was a guest room, with tables, chairs and sofas. There wasn't much open space. He asked in confusion: "Is it right here?"
Jiang Quanlin chuckled lightly, with a trace of harmless contempt in his smile, and said: "It's not a martial arts competition, but a ring. The application of Taoism is exquisite and depends on the heart. In one breath, the victory or defeat is decided.
"
Jiang Quanlin didn't believe how advanced a foreigner could be.
Adam was in awe after hearing Jiang Quanlin's wonderful words.
Taoist Liancheng made a gesture of invitation to him and said: "Brother, please!"
Adam stood up, cupped his hands, and said, "Please!"
The two of them were facing each other in the living room, separated by a distance of three to five meters.
Liancheng moved his hands first. He lowered his eyebrows and formed seals with his hands, like an old monk in meditation. Then he followed his heart and moved his body at will. The hand seals changed several times in a row. A surge of magic power surged around his body, spinning into wind and blowing.
His clothes are fluttering.
Jiang Quanlin nodded slightly, with a satisfied smile on his face.
Li Muchen frowned.
This little Taoist priest's Taoism is really too humble.
With this kind of Taoism, let alone fighting with practitioners, even if you compete with martial arts practitioners, you may not be able to defeat anyone.
Compared with martial arts, Taoism does not have an advantage in the early stages.
Martial arts is more direct, and what you practice are all killing skills.
In the early stages of Taoism, Taoism often fails to work, so many monks are born with deficiencies or do not work hard, and in the end they can only rely on magic tricks to fool people.
But once you reach the later stages of cultivation, Taoism will overwhelm martial arts.
For example, Li Muchen has not yet entered Xiantian, but Qiantang Grandmaster He Changchun has already stepped into the gate of Xiantian, but Li Muchen does not take him to heart at all.
Because innate and innate are not the same thing.
The innateness of martial arts is the threshold for entering the Tao from martial arts.
As for Li Muchen's innate talent, he was a true immortal after experiencing a thunderstorm and narrow escape from death.
The little Taoist priest in front of him, if his magic power is comparable to that of martial arts, he can at most go up against Hong Tiancheng and Huang Hai for a few times. If he encounters Master Rong, Boss Wang and others, he will lose his life with one move.
This Jiang Quanlin looks down on people so much!
Li Muchen concluded that Liancheng was no match for Adam.
Although Adam also saw it, he preconceived that the Taoist priests in Baiyun Temple must be masters. In addition, Jiang Quanlin's words just now made him think that Liancheng was hiding his strength. Maybe there was something hidden in this understatement.
A powerful killing move.
Adam didn't dare to be careless, his true energy circulated around the sky, and he also pushed out a palm.
A strong mana flowed out with the wind from his palm, rushing towards Liancheng like a stormy wave crashing on the shore.
Jiang Quanlin's expression changed drastically and he took action quickly, but it was already a step too late.
Adam's and Liancheng's mana have collided.
The connected body floated up like a kite with its string broken, spurting out a mouthful of blood in the air.
Jiang Quanlin flew forward to catch Liancheng, dragging his back to the ground, and a burst of true energy flowed into Liancheng's body.
Liancheng coughed violently, and it took him a long time to calm down. His face turned red, and he didn't know whether it was internal injury or shame.
"Master, I failed. Please punish me, Master." Liancheng lowered his head and said.
"I don't blame you!" Jiang Quanlin looked at Adam with a sullen face and said angrily, "Why are you so harsh? How can you be so ruthless and ruthless as a cultivator?"
Adam couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed and said: "I didn't expect him to be so weak. I only used three successes."
If he explained it this way, it would be better not to explain it at all.
In Jiang Quanlin's view, this is simply a provocation!
"Hmph, you, a Taoist priest from overseas, dare to be so arrogant. Do you really think that there is no one in Baiyun Temple?"
