In the inn.

Ji Qiu opened his eyes.

He was a little surprised when he looked at the figure in Taoist robes that turned into a stream of light from the window and slowly condensed into a human form.

This Taoist has white hair and a childish face, his figure is somewhere between reality and reality, and there is a faint spiritual light accompanying him. At first glance, he is not an ordinary person.

more importantly...

Ji Qiu knew him.

This person was the Master of Taihua Mountain, Taihua Zhenren, who taught him a volume of Taiping Sutra in the simulation, helping him to step into Qi refining and even achieve the foundation of Taoism!

"Why is this old man here at this time?"

Standing up, Ji Qiu was surprised.

He looked at the old Taoist who had a faint smile on his face and was a bit curious.

After planning for a moment, he still chose to speak and said:

“I don’t know where the real person’s fairyland is, and why are you coming to look for me at this time?”

"If I know what the real person is asking, I will naturally tell you everything I know."

While replying to Taoist Taihua sincerely, Ji Qiu's eyes flashed over the head of the Taoist in front of him.

【Taihua】

[1 year old: Born in an ordinary family in a prosperous age, even if the family background is ordinary, they still have no worries about food and clothing. 】

[8 years old: I left the village for fun and accidentally got lost in the mountains. By chance, I met a Taoist Taoist who taught me Qi refining and was given the method of Qi refining. I started on the path of Qi refining. 】

[17 years old: The Taoist he knew in his childhood was of little strength and only taught him the art of entraining qi. Therefore, as he grew up, Taihua traveled across mountains and rivers to find the inheritance of qi refining. Unfortunately, due to his average qualifications and ordinary background, he did not have any qi.

After accepting the introduction, you have to explore on your own.】

[25 years old: Reluctantly entering the middle stage of Qi refining, traveling around the world, and accidentally obtained a volume of the Taiping Jing, an ancient Qi refining method before the founding of the Great Yan Dynasty. Based on this, I practiced diligently. 】

[37 years old: Twelve years of practice, traveling around the world, helping the world and saving people, relying on the Qi to guide all living beings recorded in the Taiping Sutra, and reaching the peak of Qi refining. 】

[48 years old: The Taiping Sutra focuses on merits and virtues, and establishes one's own way of cultivation. After twenty years of practice, one's own accumulation is perfect, and once the situation is broken, the foundation of the Tao is achieved. 】

[Follow-up:???(It exceeds the upper limit of the host's current strength and cannot be deduced for the time being.)]

[Simulated evaluation: practicing in the world and adhering to one’s original intention can be said to be a true cultivation practice.]

This is the simulated trajectory of Taihua Taoism, which cannot be deduced until he achieves Taoism.

But Ji Qiu knew that this person had lived for nearly three hundred years.

When a monk enters the realm of Qi refining and uses spiritual energy to cleanse his essence and cut his marrow, he can live one year longer than an ordinary person who lives sixty or seventy years.

And the foundation-building monks have cast the Dao foundation, the foundation of the Dan Realm has been completed, the spiritual energy has been liquefied and polished, and the soul has been born from the Niwan Palace. It has already begun to transcend the world, but before the three hundred years mark, few people can survive it.

.

Unless the jade liquid returns elixirs and can instantly increase your lifespan by eight hundred and live for thousands of years, you will inevitably die in the end.

Although the spiritual energy of this piece of heaven and earth is much better than that of Daqian, it is not considered a great spiritual practice. The elixir realm is extinct and there are few records. It is almost like an immortal, whose traces are hard to find.

In other words, this old Taoist priest only has a few years to live.

Hearing Ji Qiu's calm response, Taihua smiled calmly, with a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes.

He used to live in Taihua Mountain to practice all year round, but in recent years there have been frequent turmoils and disasters at the foot of the mountain. The foundation of the Taiping Sutra is to help the world and save the people in order to cultivate merit.

All living beings suffer, but it is the best way to practice the Taiping Sutra.

Speaking of which, it is somewhat ironic.

Hearing that an epidemic was spreading in Youzhou, the old Taoist priest came down from the mountain in order to do some good deeds for the world before his life span ran out.

In this way, it can be regarded as living up to the three hundred years of Taoism.

In fact, when you reach the realm of Taihua, you no longer have any hope of cultivating to the elixir realm.

Because the road ahead is exhausted, or there is no way forward at all, how can we repair it?

Taihua traveled all the way from Jizhou and also wandered around Youzhou, saving many scattered civilians.

But what interests him the most is the Taiping Road that has suddenly emerged in recent days.

Taiping, Taiping, apart from his Taihuashan lineage, which other lineage in this world can be called by this title?

Out of curiosity, he made a divination based on the yin and yang of heaven and earth recorded in the Taiping Sutra.

I originally wanted to check the heel and legs of this giant deer, but who would have expected that this guy is completely innocent, and what's even more strange is that he is still vaguely connected to his own Qi.

It is obvious that I have not known this son for most of my life, and I have no relationship with his family, but I have a fate to know him. What does this mean?

This proves that in the future, I should have a master-disciple relationship with my son.

Therefore, Taihua was very interested and came in person to see what happened in Ji Qiu.

Seeing this young man making waves and using talismans to cure epidemics and save people, the old Taoist priest himself quite agreed with this.

This person's mind is more suitable for practicing the Taiping Dao Sutra than my own.

The only doubt is that when the fortune of this child was calculated, there were two completely different changes in the hexagrams than after seeing it with his own eyes. This really surprised Taihua.

This young man named Zhang Julu should have received his inheritance when he was young, so he had a prominent destiny and showed signs of success.

But when he actually saw him, Taihua realized that his calculation was wrong.

But this may not be a good thing.

Because of this change, his destiny was gradually confused and became difficult to figure out, and even the original fate of great evil gradually disappeared.

The old Taoist priest has lived for most of his life and has never seen such a person.

But after passing the fateful calamity, if this son can practice the Taiping Sutra in this gradually withering world, it would not be a bad thing for the people at the bottom.

Having made up his mind, Taihua decided to teach Ji Qiu the Taiping Sutra.

My life is approaching, and whether it is this method or the world, I need someone to inherit it.

This one is just right for me.

Thinking of this, Taihua stroked his white beard and said:

"The old Taoist's name is Taihua. He lives in Taihua Mountain in Jizhou, and is connected with the mountains and plains of Lu, forming a self-contained Taoist lineage."

"I came here just to ask my fellow Taoist, from which Taoist lineage did your Qi refining method come?"

His eyes were fixed on Ji Qiu in front of him with some serious meaning.

Taihua didn't want to understand how Ji Qiu changed his life, and there was no need to delve into it.

Everyone has secrets and predestined relationships. If you dig deep into everything and force yourself to know, not only will it be meaningless, but it may just make people feel bad, and the gain will not be worth the loss.

Therefore, what Taihua is concerned about is whether Ji Qiu's extraordinary qi refining method has the inheritance of Taoism.

If he has a master, then even if this son is destined to be with him in the future, I'm afraid he can only be destined to have no connection.

Simply, Ji Qiu's reply without hesitation made Taihua stop thinking.

Looking at the white-bearded old man in front of him, Ji Qiu just replied:

"This Qi Refining Method was found in an ancient scroll. There is no Qi Refining Dao lineage."

"The way of peace is also the way that I voluntarily practiced in the ways of Confucian sages and ancient sages when I was studying in Taixue Palace."

"I wonder why Master Taihua asked these questions?"

Under the dim lights, Ji Qiu responded.

After hearing this, Taihua nodded a little and said again:

"Since there is no Tao lineage inheritance, the poor Taoist would like to pass on to you a volume of the Taiping Sutra. The content is extensive, covering the heaven and earth, yin and yang, the five elements, the ten branches, disasters and phenomena, etc. It also contains methods for cultivating the true body of merit and virtue, and assisting in refining qi and practice.

Are you willing to learn?"

"Pindao and you are destined to be together in the future. Although I don't know why some changes happened, but they are not important."

"I observe that your behavior is quite consistent with my Taiping Sutra. As long as you are willing to learn it, I will teach it to you. If you are not willing, I will not force you."

coming!

Ji Qiu couldn't help but perked up when he heard Taihua Taoist take the initiative to mention it.

The spiritual insights and knowledge gained during simulation will not exist after changing one’s destiny against the will of heaven.

But those memories are clearly preserved.

This Taiping Sutra is of an extraordinary level, and it is also a sideline inheritance that can reach the elixir-returning jade liquid. It is not weaker than the Sutra of Transcendence.

The most important thing among them is the practice method of Taiping Sutra.

This method advocates entering the human world to help the world and save people, transforming merit and destiny, thereby increasing cultivation and nourishing the soul.

If you want to achieve enlightenment through this method in an ordinary world, you will need to gather a huge amount of merit. Even if you practice medicine for a lifetime, it is estimated that it will not be enough to gather much merit.

But now that the Great Yan Dynasty is full of wars and there have been great disasters for many years, this is the time when it is easiest to practice this method.

With the help of the Taiping Sutra, Ji Qiu can achieve rapid progress on the path of cultivation in a short period of time, and even reach the Taoist level, which may not be an extravagant hope.

Moreover, many disciples of the Taiping Dao sect received feedback from practicing this method much more quickly than those from the Sutra of Transcendence.

I thought that if Taoist Taihua came to look for me, something unnecessary would happen.

But when he saw that the old Taoist priest was still willing to teach him the Taiping Sutra, Ji Qiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time he was a little moved and admired.

Even when he is approaching the end of his life, this Qi practitioner still maintains a peaceful mind. This kind of character can be said to be a model for spiritual practice.

Ji Qiu has reason to believe that if Taihua was born in Dongcangzhou, where his main body is, he cannot say how advanced he would have been in cultivation, but he would not be able to escape the realm of a real person who can return elixirs with jade liquid.

After listening to what Taihua said, although Ji Qiu knew the foundation of the Taiping Sutra, his face still showed a bit of surprise. He looked at Taihua and said hesitantly:

"This...senior is a master of Taoism. I think he has already reached the level of making wind and rain. Why would he want to teach me such a precious method?"

"Am I not ashamed of it?"

Seeing Ji Qiu's doubts, Taihua smiled lightly and shook his head.

"In my three hundred years of practice, you are not the first person to be awarded the Taiping Sutra, but you should be the last one."

"Among those in front of you, there is one person who has achieved cultivation so far and is still alive in the world. He has established a Taoist lineage in the land of Sichuan and Sichuan, and he is considered to be famous."

"Pindao has seen your efforts in treating diseases and rescuing epidemics in Pingyang County, and I figured out that I will have a master-disciple relationship with you in the future, so I taught you this method."

"If you are willing, you and I will form this master-disciple relationship. Your Taiping Taoism is a perfect match for Ping Dao."

The old Taoist priest smiled and did not pay attention to Ji Qiu's words.

In fact, it didn't matter much to him whether Ji Qiu was willing or not.

He just admires this young man named Zhang Julu and feels that this boy will have extraordinary achievements in the future, that's all.

In response, Ji Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.

That's enough talking about this.

"Then disciple Zhang Julu will inherit the orthodoxy of his predecessor."

"Thank you, Teacher, for teaching me the Dharma!"
