The Qi Refiner's requirements for accepting disciples are extremely strict. If you don't have any talent, even if you offer ten thousand taels of gold, the Qi Refiner will not teach you even a single sentence of the formula.
Bai Qi's talent is outstanding in the eyes of Princess Yuzhen. She was walking in front, feeling a little proud in her heart. Various sects competed fiercely for this genius of cultivation. Longhu Mountain is one of the famous sects.
It is the only sect in the country that has connections with the imperial court, but it will take considerable effort to recruit someone like Bai Qi.
As she thought this way, her steps became lighter. Bai Qi followed, and felt much more comfortable when he saw Princess Yuzhen's graceful figure swinging in the Taoist robe. If there wasn't an old zombie following him next to him, his mood would be even better.
a little better.
Just when I was worried about how to learn about these sects, I was brought by Princess Yuzhen. Seeing that Princess Yuzhen meant it, it was related to her family.
If you can get on the line with Longhushan, it will be much easier to find out some bad news about your father.
The scenery along the way gradually changed. The weather in early spring was originally cold, but when we climbed over a mountain ridge, the cold in the mountains was even more severe. Bai Qi even saw a pine forest, which was a northern scenery.
After climbing over the mountain ridge, Bai Qi also saw from a distance the Taoist temple built on the mountain, with flying eaves and brackets, full of ancient charm. In front of the Taoist temple, two tall ancient locust trees were planted. The front door was deserted, and the mountain wind blew by.
, several birds flew up, climbed over the eaves and disappeared.
Princess Yuzhen looked from a distance and frowned: "There are outsiders here."
She thought for a while, then took out a Taoist robe, asked Bai Qi to put it on, and warned: "If anyone asks you, just say that you are a casual cultivator with no family or sect, and you are not allowed to say your real name."
Baitou agreed. He heard what Princess Yuzhen said just now. In this Taoist temple, there are monks who are not from the Longhu Mountain lineage. Now the Qi Refiners gather around the capital, and most of them want to deal with their own fathers. Princess Yuzhen is like this
He said, but he wanted to protect his own safety.
Bai Qi was enlightened by his wet nurse, and his meridians were expanded by the broken spear. After changing into a Taoist robe, he really looked a bit immortal, but he was too young and still had a childish look between his eyebrows.
Not long after, several people had arrived in front of the Taoist temple. A young Taoist priest came out, glanced at Bai Qi, and said, "Yu Zhenzi, why do you bring outsiders here? Our Longhu Mountain can..."
"It's none of your business." Princess Yuzhen obviously hated this pale-faced Taoist priest. She directly called the zombie to rush forward. The Taoist priest was very angry, but he didn't dare to fight the zombie, so he could only get out of the way.
The real princess walked in proudly.
The white-faced Taoist priest looked at Princess Yuzhen's back from behind, his face gloomy, but his eyes showed boundless desire. He gritted his teeth, but finally did not catch up with her and reasoned.
Bai Qi was now walking side by side with Princess Yuzhen. He said strangely: "I think that man just now doesn't look like a Qi Refiner, but more like an evil slave."
"Huh, that's because my practice went wrong. I still don't want to repent and want to..." At this point, Princess Yuzhen's face turned red and she didn't continue. With a cold face, she led Salin around the hall.
Come to a courtyard at the back.
There is an ancient locust tree in the courtyard, which covers the entire courtyard. There is also a deep well under the ancient locust tree, which exudes coolness.
"Bai Qi, just wait in this courtyard and don't go anywhere."
"Where are you going?" Bai Qi couldn't help but ask. In the past, of course he was fearless, but after entering the world of Qi Refiners, he knew that he, the son of Duke Yu, in the eyes of Qi Refiners,
Maybe they are no different from village women and lackeys.
Seeing Bai Qi's childish expression, Princess Yuzhen said gently: "I'm going to see my master. Longhu Mountain has always supported the imperial court. Your father's matter is also Longhu Mountain's matter. I'll go and discuss it with the master first.
Let’s see if we can send a few Qi Refiners to your house to prevent anyone from harming your father in the capital.”
Bai Qi felt relieved now. Princess Yuzhen's attitude was obviously that of Longhu Mountain.
It turned out that he didn't understand the meaning of Longhu Mountain and thought it was just a group of magic sticks. He learned from his wet nurse that the successive heavenly masters of Longhu Mountain were at least people with the highest level of golden elixir. Only when they became immortals and ascended would they leave everything and go to the heaven.
The ultimate golden elixir is the highest state of refining the spirit and returning to the void. In this world, it is the most powerful qi practitioner. Unless he meets an immortal, he is invincible.
Princess Yuzhen was cautious and left the old zombie and the four palace maids to accompany Bai Qi, but did not let Bai Qi enter the surrounding alchemy room.
Bai Qi didn't mind and went directly to the well to meditate, waiting for the good news from Princess Yuzhen.
Princess Yuzhen then left her courtyard and went to the master's alchemy room.
There was originally no important person to take care of Longhu Mountain's industry here, but it was only because of Princess Yuzhen that the place began to prosper. On the contrary, there was no powerful Jindan person in charge of the Taoist temple in the city.
When she arrived outside the alchemy room, Princess Yuzhen felt something was wrong. Outside the master's door, two Taoist boys who usually served her were standing outside with pale faces. There was silence in the room.
"Qingfeng, what's going on inside?" Princess Yuzhen asked.
The Taoist boy, who was slightly taller and had a dark complexion, replied: "The teacher was meeting an important person and kicked us out."
"Important person?" Princess Yuzhen was about to ask again, but the master's voice came from the alchemy room.
"Yamako, come in and talk."
Princess Yuzhen pushed the door open in response, but was stunned. She saw that the master was not sitting on the cloud bed where he usually practiced, but on the chair opposite. On the cloud bed, a young man wearing a high crown was leaning there,
Beside him are two beautiful women wearing high buns.
The young man looked arrogant and lowered his eyelids, as if he didn't take the Taoist in front of him seriously at all.
"Yu Zhenzi, come here and meet Mr. Yan."
"What sir!" Princess Yuzhen said angrily.
The young man on the cloud bed raised his eyelids and glanced at Princess Yuzhen. His whole body suddenly glowed with energy, and he no longer looked as lazy as before.
The young man's demeanor changed, and he immediately exuded a strong pressure. Princess Yuzhen was already a monk in the middle stage of Qi refining. Forced by this pressure, she stepped back a few steps and leaned her back against the door. She was shocked in her heart.
.
But he didn't say anything to Princess Yuzhen, but said to Princess Yuzhen's master: "Bai Yazi, this matter is the will of Heaven. You, Longhu Mountain, must listen to it or not. Well, yours
You are a good apprentice. I will come to propose marriage later, but don’t refuse."
Princess Yuzhen's master wanted to say something. The young master named Yan already had a purple gold token in his hand, facing Bai Yazi.
On the front of the token, there are eight seal characters - Watch on behalf of heaven, as if I were here in person.
Bai Yazi's body was trembling, and the golden elixir monk couldn't stand up at all when facing the token. Mr. Yan stood up, put away the token, smiled at Princess Yuzhen, and left with the two maids.
Princess Yuzhen was in despair. She had heard about the token in Mr. Yan’s hand.
Above the Nine Provinces, there is Heaven. It is difficult for people in Heaven to go down to the lower world, so they can only choose the immortals with the lowest cultivation level to deal with matters on Nine Provinces. Above each major state, there are several inspectors of the Heavenly Emperor, holding the Purple Night Golden Order.
, patrolling on behalf of heaven.
The inspectors of the Emperor of Heaven are immortals. Even if their strength in the human world falls, they are still people who can refine the gods and return to the void. In addition, with the Purple Night Golden Order in their hands, they can control the ghosts and gods in the world. Except for a few immortal cultivators, I have never heard of anyone who dares to violate this.
The will of the Emperor’s inspector.
The young man walked away, and then Bai Yazi stood up and said sadly: "Yuzhen, this, this, this..."
He didn't expect that the Emperor's inspector fell in love with Princess Yuzhen and wanted to propose marriage. A person like him naturally knew the details of Mr. Yan. The so-called marriage proposal was just a concubine. How could he be willing to give it away to such an outstanding apprentice?
Is this Mr. Yan a concubine?
Princess Yuzhen was a little flustered when she saw her master losing her composure, but she immediately comforted her master and said, "Master, why don't I go back to the palace now? If I don't come out, the heavenly patrol will not be able to destroy the Jiuding barrier?"
Bai Yazi let out a long sigh and said, "Yuzhen, you still don't understand. The Heavenly Emperor's inspector ordered Longhu Mountain not to help the Bai family, which is going to destroy the foundation of the Jin Dynasty. Those twelve bronze men will be destroyed, and Jiuding will be destroyed."
Maybe keep you safe?"
"How is that possible!" Although Princess Yuzhen practiced Taoism, she believed since she was a child that even heaven could not interfere with the state affairs of the Jin Dynasty.
Bai Yazi shook his head and said: "This Heavenly Emperor's inspector must have come to Longhu Mountain to warn more than just one faction. Now Bai Jian can only fight alone. Without the Qi Refiner to help him, do you think a human warrior can withstand the Qi Refiner?"
Endless assassinations?”
Princess Yuzhen shook her head, and Bai Yazi said: "If Duke Yu dies for his country, the foundation of the Jin Dynasty will be shaken, monsters will appear everywhere in the world, and the country's destiny will be weakened, then Master Yan will naturally come to kill him in the end..."
Bai Yazi couldn't bear to talk any more, and Princess Yuzhen was dumbfounded. Finally, she pulled Bai Yazi's sleeve and said, "Master, save me!"
Bai Yazi nodded secretly, this apprentice still understood the truth. If he was asked to save the Jin Dynasty, there was nothing he could do.
Thinking of this, Bai Yazi said: "Yuzhen, if Bai Jian dies in battle, the palace of the Jin Dynasty will not be able to protect you. There are only four sects in Zhongzhou that are not afraid of the Emperor of Heaven's inspectors. I am not familiar with Kunlun, but Qingcheng in the west
The sent Li Zhenren and I have known each other for hundreds of years, you go to him to take refuge."
"Zhenren Li?"
"Exactly, the common name is Li Fanyu."
"It's Master Yuzhen!" After hearing this name, Princess Yuzhen relaxed a little. The imposing manner of Mr. Yan just now was unparalleled, and she had no idea of confronting him head-on.
However, as Master said, there are still many sects in the Nine Provinces, and the Heavenly Emperor's inspectors cannot influence them. These sects are all inextricably linked to the Heavenly Court.
Kunlun in the northwest, Qingcheng in the southwest, Penglai in the east, and Luofu in the south. These four immortal sects are so powerful that Heaven can only appease them.
As long as he can enter Qingcheng, Mr. Yan must have no choice but to give up.
