I don't know how long it took, Xiao He woke up from his deep sleep in the Green Wood Cauldron, and the last remaining trace of consciousness slowly tried to feel the surrounding environment. However, no matter how hard he tried, Xiao He felt that he was in an endless world.
In the darkness, he couldn't feel his breathing, heartbeat, or even his own body. It was like a dead soul wandering aimlessly, not knowing where he was or where he was going.
place.
Xiao He wanted to try to use his consciousness to feel the surrounding environment, but found that he couldn't use any force at all. At this moment, he seemed to be more void than a ball of air.
Outside the green wooden cauldron, Tianyanzi was still using his own true energy to continuously send herbal essence into the cauldron. He persisted for so long, and his cultivation level was as high as his, and large beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
At this time, another blue and a green two strands of true power entered the green wood cauldron. Tian Yanzi suddenly felt a little more relaxed. However, he still did not dare to neglect. He stared straight at his green wood cauldron without taking a single step.
Don't want to leave.
In fact, you don't need to look at Tianyanzi to know that these two pure and honest Qi must be his sixth junior sister Tian Yuzi and seventh junior brother Tian Guzi.
Before Tian Yanzi could speak, his junior sister Tian Yuzi said: "Senior brother, don't be distracted, junior brother and I are here to help you!"
Tianyanzi didn't answer. At this moment, all his energy was in the green wood cauldron.
Xiao He has been sleeping in the green wood cauldron. Under the blessing of Tianyanzi, Tianyuzi and Tianguzi, and nourished by the essence of heaven, material and earth treasures collected by Tianyanzi, his body is slowly recovering.
Then, Xiao He could feel that although the surroundings were still dark, his eyes and ears were gradually regaining consciousness.
"Child, child, wake up..."
What was also very surprising to Xiao He was that he seemed to feel an old voice calling him.
"Child, wake up..."
The sound appeared again, and Xiao He, who had just regained some of his senses, tried to open his eyes. This time, he could finally see the surrounding one to two meters clearly, and there was finally a glimmer of light in the endless darkness.
"Child, you're awake." It was that voice again.
Only then did Xiao He see that there seemed to be a person not far in front of him. It was more like a human-shaped ball of soft light than a human being.
Xiao He walked closer and saw clearly that there was indeed a person wrapped in this soft energy. What surprised him even more was that he had actually seen this person before. It was the statue of the founding father above the Guiyan Peak Hall—
— Taoist Master Jue Yuan!
"You, you are Taoist Priest Jue Yuan!" Xiao He has gone through countless ups and downs since he started cultivating immortality. This is the first time he has been so panicked, and he even stuttered a bit when he spoke.
"Child, do you know me?" Taoist priest Jue Yuan looked at Xiao He and showed a very happy expression.
"Well!" Xiao He said, "I just heard that Taoist Master Jue Yuan has already ascended to immortality."
"No one has ascended to immortality in the Central Plains for a thousand years, so how can I?" Taoist Master Jue Yuan asked kindly and kindly.
"I have had such a question, but I never dared to ask Master Tianyanzi about it. I just said that you, Taoist Priest, also ascended a thousand years ago." Xiao He replied respectfully.
"Haha! Actually it's not the case!" Taoist Master Jue Yuan said.
Xiao He was curious and wanted to ask again, but he was a little hesitant. Taoist Master Jue Yuan seemed to have seen his thoughts. He continued: "This is a major secret of our sect. Since Tianyanzi has accepted you as a disciple, you can be considered as a disciple."
I am now a disciple, so there is no harm in telling you! However, you must not mention this matter to outsiders, lest it bring disaster to our sect!"
"Xiao He, remember this!" Xiao He cupped his fists and raised his hands, and said respectfully again!
"Have you ever heard of an eminent monk named Yangshan?" Master Jueyuan asked.
Hearing the word "Yangshan", Xiao He hesitated for a moment, and then said: "When I first set foot on the path of cultivating immortals, my master once mentioned to me Senior Yangshan. It is said that he has become a Buddha and gone to the West.
It’s a paradise world.”
"That's right! The eminent monk Yangshan is also my master!" Taoist Master Jue Yuan said.
When Xiao He heard this, he was so surprised that he was speechless for a moment. He only heard Taoist priest Yuan continue to say:
"You said that Master should be the current madman, right? Master has always intended to accept him as his disciple, but today I want to tell you something else. Back then, I was just a young monk in the Shaolin Temple. Before Senior Yangshan passed away,
I have been taking care of my left and right, and then I was lucky enough to hear Master recite the Nirvana Sutra, the supreme Buddhist teaching inscribed on his beetle leaves. Unfortunately, I could only listen to the first twenty volumes before Master passed away! After that, I followed Master's instructions.
He asked his body to be handed over to the mad demon, and that’s how the rest of the story came about!”
"It's like this..." Xiao He murmured.
"Later, after I gained some insights from the first twenty volumes of scriptures, I opened another sect and created my own sect." Taoist Master Jue Yuan said.
"Is this Guiyan Peak?" Xiao He asked tentatively.
"No! It's the Wudang Ancient Temple! It was also when I attained enlightenment that I founded the Wudang Ancient Temple. Not long after, the name of the Wudang Ancient Temple became the same as the Shaolin Ancient Temple, and became the Taishan Beidou among my various sects of immortality. Like the Shaolin Ancient Temple, it was never subject to the thirty-year rule.
The institutional control of the Six Cave Heavens and the Seventy-two Blessed Lands. Master and I were also known as a good story for a while. At that time, there was a saying in the world of immortality, "Look up at the green mountains and meditate without moving, and be aware of the distant sky at the spiritual washing platform." But I didn't want to become famous or prestige.
It was too early, and because my alchemy skills were the best in the world, this led to a disaster! For my alchemy skills, the Shadow Alliance did not hesitate to send out twelve elders at the same time to attack. I, Wudang, had no time to ask for support from Shaolin. Everyone
The disciple was in the early stage of attaining Taoism, so he lost to the Shadow Alliance and was brutally destroyed!"
"So, how did you avoid this disaster?" Xiao He continued to ask.
"I blew up my golden elixir and wasted nearly a thousand years of practice to temporarily block the enemy. I protected the seven disciples who were closest to me at the time and hid them in my space magic weapon. Only then did I escape the disaster. Those twelve elders
After he was seriously injured by me, he just thought that my body and soul had been destroyed after using up the trick of dying together, so he took me to send him the elixir and left in despair."
"These seven people must be the seven Taoist priests of Guiyan Peak today, right?"
"It's these seven people! I asked them to remain anonymous from now on and never mention anything about the ancient Wudang Temple, let alone the grudges of the past, just so that they won't cause any harm to their lives, and wait until the right time, place, and people are right, before they can glorify Wudang again.
Ancient temple!" Taoist Master Jue Yuan said. "It's just that these seven people are too stupid! Only the fifth disciple Tianyanzi is still loyal, so I taught him the alchemy skills and the remaining heavenly materials and earthly treasures together with my magical weapons.
!”
"Could it be that the space magic weapon you mentioned is this Green Wood Cauldron?" Xiao He suddenly realized!
"Exactly! This green wood cauldron forms a small space of its own. Although the grade is very low, it is enough to retain my spiritual consciousness. No one can control this cauldron at will except the owner Tianyanzi. If it weren't for this green wood cauldron back then,
My protection must have been lost long ago, so how could we have this opportunity between you and me?" Taoist priest Jue Yuan continued to say with a smile.
"That's exactly what the Taoist said! I wonder if I can do anything for the Taoist?"
Hearing what Xiao He said, Taoist Priest Jue Yuan looked at him quietly, smiling and saying nothing.
Xiao He then shook his head, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said: "I am too reckless, even Taoist Master Tianyanzi is stupid, so how can I help?"
Looking at Xiao He's appearance, Taoist Master Jue Yuan smiled kindly again and said, "You don't have to be too modest. Your physique is more suitable for practicing my Taoism than my seven disciples!"
"What? My physique?" Xiao He asked.
"This is also your cause and effect. Although I cannot be the person to open the cause and effect for you, I can help you!" Taoist Master Jue Yuan said. "Today, I will teach you what I have learned from the first twenty volumes of the Nirvana Sutra.
Natural way!"
"Senior, Xiao He can't thank you enough for your kindness. It's not that I don't know how to appreciate it. It's because my physical body has been destroyed. Like my senior, I only have this trace of spiritual consciousness left. I can no longer practice your profound Taoism, senior!" Xiao He felt a little disappointed.
said.
After hearing these words, Taoist Master Jue Yuan looked up to the sky and roared: "Haha, child, you are different from me. I will pass the natural Tao method into your consciousness, and you will be able to practice again after your physical body is rebuilt!"
As soon as Taoist Priest Jue Yuan finished speaking, he raised his hand and pointed, and a ray of light shot directly towards Xiao He. Before Xiao He could react, the ray of light had already shot into Xiao He's forehead. Until the light disappeared completely, Xiao He had no idea.
The slightest feeling.
"My child, your cause and effect has not yet been resolved, and your physical body can be recreated. Now, it is a blessing in disguise!" Taoist Master Jue Yuan said.
"Why did the Taoist Master say this?" Xiao He asked.
"Why don't you take a look for yourself?" Taoist priest Jue Yuan asked.
Only then did Xiao He realize that he could feel his own body through the technique of self-peeping, and then he made a very surprising discovery! When he first practiced, Xiao He could always feel a ball of energy floating above the spring of his Dantian.
Breathing out regularly together with his Dantian, the mass of energy above his Dantian has now taken the form of a human! If his physical body was still there, according to the normal rules of cultivation, he would have reached the bottleneck period of the Golden elixir and would soon reach the stage of Nascent Soul.
The situation is over.
"Master Jue Yuan, you must be helping me, right?" Xiao He asked happily.
"That's not necessarily the case. This green wood cauldron is a world of its own, so it can condense your spiritual consciousness. In addition, Tianyanzi is constantly blessing with herbal essences, and because your physical body has been destroyed and all impurities have been removed, the golden elixir can be formed quickly.
It will be so fast!" said Taoist Master Jue Yuan.
"That's it. Thank you Taoist Priest for your advice!" Xiao He said.
"This is also due to your own luck. Don't thank me. I don't know how many miracles will happen to you! I will pass on two more treasures to you!" Taoist Master Jueyuan said.
Xiao He quickly waved his hand and refused: "Taoist Master, this is absolutely impossible! Xiao He was frightened and grateful to have such an unexpected encounter, and he did not dare to ask for anything more. Besides, Taoist Master's seven disciples also have the important task of recovering Wudang. Taoist Master
If you have a treasure, please pass it on to your disciples!"
Taoist Master Jue Yuan smiled again and said: "It's rare that you have such a character, but my treasures are beyond the control of ordinary people, but today I feel that they may have some fate with you. If what I said is true, my five
My disciple must have passed on the "Waitan Dharma Sutra" to you!"
"It's exactly what the Taoist Master said!" Xiao He said.
"It is also my mission to find a suitable person for the treasure of Wudang Ancient Temple. Now, I am no longer obsessed with recovering Wudang. After you leave the Qingmu Cauldron, you are not allowed to mention your knowledge to anyone, including mine.
Disciples!" said Taoist Master Jue Yuan.
Xiao He only felt that there was something in the Taoist priest's words, and he couldn't understand it all for a while. He didn't ask any questions and agreed to it all.
