Chapter 157 Is it true that some people think Xu Qingxiao is an immortal genius?
?
Kyoto of the Great Wei Dynasty.
The figures of the two Taoist priests slowly appeared.
One old and one young.
The old Taoist has chicken skin and white hair, but his demeanor is energetic and he looks like a Taoist.
The young Taoist priest looked very handsome, with his hair tied down, attracting a lot of attention.
"Ziying, we are going to meet the Empress of Wei later. Remember, don't look arrogant when facing the empress."
The old Taoist spoke in a calm tone.
"Master, don't worry. Although my disciple is a little arrogant, he can also distinguish the situation clearly."
"But my disciple won't say anything flattering. I hope the master understands this."
The man named Ziying replied.
His eyes were full of pride.
Hearing this, the old Taoist couldn't help but sigh.
"You, you, just don't understand the ways of the world, and you are full of arrogance. Sooner or later you will suffer."
The old Taoist said this, but it was not a reproach, it was just a lesson.
"As long as you have enough strength, there is no need for worldliness."
"Master, you are old."
Lu Ziying said calmly, and the arrogance could be heard in his tone.
As soon as he said this, the old Taoist couldn't help but sigh slightly.
"You, you, you just haven't met anyone with better qualifications than you."
The old Taoist said so.
When Lu Ziying heard this, she couldn't help but continue.
"Master, it's not that my disciple is boasting. My disciple's talent is known as the first talent in immortality. The ancestor once said that I have the talent to become an immortal."
"It's difficult to find someone in this world who can surpass my disciple's qualifications, so I don't need to do anything to be worldly."
"Only the weak will go to great lengths to please others."
Lu Ziying was extremely arrogant.
But as soon as he said this, the old Taoist couldn't help but smile bitterly, because Lu Ziying was right.
Lu Ziying can indeed be called the number one person in the Immortal Way. At the age of only twenty-four, he has already entered the fourth level of Shangqing Realm. Such qualifications are indeed rare in ancient and modern times.
So Lu Ziying can also say this.
"Don't be too happy too early. You must know that there is a sky beyond the sky and there are mountains beyond the mountains."
When the old man opens his mouth, it is better to educate him.
Lu Ziying did not answer, obviously he was tired of hearing such words.
"By the way, Master, why did you come to Wei Kyoto specifically?"
Lu Ziying asked curiously.
"Two things. One is to go to Yunyan. Her master asked me to bring her something."
"The second thing is to go see Wei Xinsheng. I may need his help with something."
The old Taoist replied, making Lu Ziying a little curious.
"The new sage of the Wei Dynasty? Is it Xu Qingxiao that the world has been discussing recently?"
Lu Ziying asked.
"Well, it's him."
The old man nodded.
"Ask him for help? My disciple has heard of him. He entered the fifth-grade Confucian realm a few days ago. I can only say that he is not bad. The title of New Sage of the Wei Dynasty is a bit exaggerated."
Lu Ziying was a little surprised. Her master was the head of the Supreme Immortal Sect, Taoist Wuchen, and had a very high status. But she didn't expect that she would come to Xu Qingxiao in person to ask for help?
You must know that the Taishang Immortal Sect is one of the seven great Immortal Sects in the mortal world, with a long history of three thousand years. When Emperor Taizu of the Wei Dynasty established the Wei Dynasty, there was a shadow of the Taishang Immortal Sect.
That's why he was so surprised. As for Xu Qingxiao's evaluation, Lu Ziying didn't look down on him, but felt that Xu Qingxiao was exaggerated.
This is normal. Geniuses are all dissatisfied with each other, especially the top geniuses.
"Hey, I asked you to read more books before, but you refused to read and insisted on herding cattle. Confucianism and Taoism are completely different systems."
"The level of difficulty for a fifth-level scholar is even more difficult than that of a fourth-level immortal, especially since Xu Qingxiao has only been in school for half a year."
"Ziying, how long did it take you to reach the fourth level of high purity?"
Taoist Wuchen wanted to use Xu Qingxiao's name to suppress his disciple and make him not be so arrogant.
However, Lu Ziying didn't care, but still said proudly.
"ten years."
"But the first five years are bone building."
Lu Ziying replied, but added that he was reshaping his bones in the past five years, otherwise, five years would be enough.
"Yes, after five years of practicing the Immortal Way, you are only at level 4."
"He has been practicing Confucianism for half a year, and he is already a fifth-grade Confucian. How big is the gap between you?"
Taoist Wuchen asked rhetorically.
"The fourth grade is the fourth grade, and the fifth grade is the fifth grade. No matter what is more difficult than the other, besides, if I were asked to practice Confucianism, maybe I would not be worse than him."
"But if we let him practice immortality, will he be able to reach the fourth rank in five years?"
Lu Ziying said this.
This is obviously being stubborn.
"That's not necessarily true. For those of us who are cultivating immortals, the most important thing is qualifications. He has half a year in Confucianism and Taoism, and is at the fifth level. Maybe he really has the talent to cultivate immortality."
Taoist Wuchen said this, but soon he saw that Lu Ziying was still a little dissatisfied, and immediately spoke out to interrupt the other party's words.
"Oh, forget it, I won't tell you anymore. In short, curb your arrogance. You can be as arrogant as you want on the mountain. When you go down the mountain, be more low-key."
Taoist Wuchen has nothing to say. His disciple is so arrogant, which can be good or bad. It is normal for young people to be arrogant, as long as they are not arrogant.
Lu Ziying didn't say anything more. In fact, he didn't have any ill feelings towards Xu Qingxiao, he was just purely competitive.
After all, who doesn’t want to be number one in the world?
Just like that, the two figures walked towards the capital of Wei Dynasty.
And at the same time.
Kyoto of the Great Wei Dynasty.
Shouren School.
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
The whole Shouren Academy was a little weird. There were noises in Xu Qingxiao's room from time to time. If Xu Qingxiao hadn't told people not to come in before, everyone would have wanted to open the door to see what Xu Qingxiao was doing.
"Brother, sir, what's going on?"
At this time, Shouren Academy was no longer alone. Since Xu Qingxiao had the qualifications of a new saint, he had indeed attracted many scholars to follow him.
There are no seventh-grade Mingyi, five realms of self-cultivation, more than thirty enlightenments, hundreds of Qi-nurturing, and many scholars who have not reached the highest grade. However, Xu Qingxiao has one condition for those who have not reached the highest grade.
You just need to understand your mind. You can come and listen to Li Shouming's class every day, and then Li Shouming will review it. If the answer is acceptable, you can enter. If you can't answer it, forget it.
This is done to eliminate some scholars who want to build relationships instead of actually learning.
What Xu Qingxiao needs now is elites, not numbers, quality not quantity.
Everyone stood in Shouren Academy with curious expressions on their faces.
Even Yang Hu and others are very curious.
However, Chen Xinghe walked out and said calmly.
"Junior Brother Xu is the future new saint. He became a great Confucian four days ago and is now consolidating his Confucian position. It is normal to cause some strange phenomena. Don't you understand?"
Chen Xinghe opened his mouth and said this.
As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly realized.
"Uncle Master is right."
"So that's how it is. Uncle Master is indeed very knowledgeable."
Upon hearing this, everyone understood.
I think what Chen Xinghe said is very reasonable.
However, in Xu Qingxiao's room.
A blood filled the air.
He has swallowed the seventh-level realm-breaking pill and is now impacting the seventh-level realm.
The tenth level of martial arts is to nourish the body, the ninth level is to condense the pulse, and the eighth level is to cultivate the Dantian.
The seventh level is the state of ‘rebirth’.
A state of rebirth.
Upon reaching this state, the physical body will completely transform, and the bones, blood, and skin of the body will all undergo the ultimate transformation.
Once the transformation is successful, there will be incredible changes.
For example, an eighth-level warrior can hold his breath for up to half a quarter of an hour in the water.
However, a seventh-level warrior can hold his breath in the water for an hour.
An eighth-level warrior jumps up to two or three meters, which is still within the range of ordinary people.
But a seventh-level warrior can reach dozens of meters in one jump.
If an eighth-level warrior is cut with a knife, his skin will still bleed.
The seventh-level warrior was slashed by a knife and was not injured at all, and ordinary flames could not burn him.
The ability of an eighth-level warrior is to vomit within one hundred and eighty breaths.
The ability of a seventh-level warrior is that he will not vomit for an hour. Whether he wants to vomit or not is completely within his control.
This is the difference between seventh-grade warriors. There is a huge difference in nature.
Everyone in the world wants to become a seventh-grade warrior, but it is extremely difficult to become a seventh-grade warrior.
This is why the seventh grade is said to be a watershed.
After the seventh level is the sixth level of dragon transformation.
One product and one heaven.
Boom boom boom.
Another roaring sound sounded, Xu Qingxiao's body transformed, and a layer of blood filled his body.
Then the blood energy disappeared into the body, and wisps of black energy were rejected.
An hour later.
Xu Qingxiao's body is like a baby's, smooth and white, with strong blood.
Click click click.
Xu Qingxiao jumped down from the bed, her whole body bones shaking, and extremely powerful power gathered in her body.
There is a real sense of improvement when a martial artist is promoted. Unlike Confucianism and Taoism, promotion is just like that for ordinary people.
However, when the warrior was promoted to the seventh level, Xu Qingxiao really felt that his strength had increased.
Clenching her fist with five fingers, Xu Qingxiao punched the desk.
boom!
The wooden table exploded instantly. Xu Qingxiao did not use any trace of Qi. This was the strength of the physical body, which generated fist power, which was extremely ferocious.
"With my current strength, I can kill the old me with one punch."
"The strength of the warrior is so terrifying. This is only the seventh level. What if it is the first level? Wouldn't it destroy the world?"
Xu Qingxiao clicked her tongue a little.
This fighting power is too strong. He is only at level 7 and can achieve this level.
If it were a first-grade one, wouldn't it be like punching the void?
Regarding the warrior system, Xu Qingxiao was really very vague. It was like Prince Huaiping was a fifth-grade Dzogchen warrior. He was very powerful, but also very vague, without a specific feeling.
Now that he has been promoted to the seventh level, Xu Qingxiao feels inexplicably that he is really arrogant. He angrily attacked a fifth-level warrior. Fortunately, Prince Huaiping has some brains. If he had been rash, he might have died.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingxiao couldn't help but secretly warn in her heart that she should ask others about their level before attacking them in the future.
If you don't want to be punched to death, you will lose blood.
Xu Qingxiao thought of this.
However, the reason why Prince Huaiping didn't kill Xu Qingxiao was not because he was cautious, but because he couldn't kill him.
How many powerful people are there in the capital of Wei Dynasty? Let’s not talk about the Eight Gates’ soldiers and the like, just the people living in the capital.
If you are either a prince or a prince, if you can reach this level, will your martial arts level be poor?
It just didn't show up on weekdays, and Xu Qingxiao didn't ask.
But if Prince Huaiping really wants to kill Xu Qingxiao, will these princes and princes watch helplessly?
Even if the princes and princes of the country looked on eagerly, there were still first-class warriors in the capital of the Wei Dynasty.
This kind of existence can appear thousands of miles away in a single thought.
There are two first-grade warriors in the Wei Dynasty. Unless the empress wants her to die, no one in Kyoto would dare to kill Xu Qingxiao.
"Boy, do you know my strength now?"
At this moment, the voice of the Alchemy Ancient Scripture sounded, and he asked after Xu Qingxiao broke through.
"Thank you, senior."
Xu Qingxiao bowed to the ancient scripture of the Alchemy God.
This feeling of upgrading from taking drugs is really great.
Otherwise, according to my current situation, a fifth-grade scholar would not be able to increase his cultivation level by relying on strange arts, let alone normal cultivation.
Don't expect to break through to the seventh level every few decades. Now it only takes a few hours. How can this not make him happy?
"Boy, should we tell you the materials for the sixth-grade realm-breaking pill now, or wait some time?"
Danshen Ancient Scripture asked.
"Senior, let's talk now, junior, get ready."
Having tasted the sweetness, Xu Qingxiao naturally did not want to waste time.
"You have memorized the materials for the sixth-grade realm-breaking elixir. You only need four. Seven-leaf blood lotus, Xiaoluo fruit, Wannian Bodhi seed, a medicine king, any kind of medicine king will do."
The ancient Dan Shen Sutra informed Xu Qingxiao of these four materials.
But when Xu Qingxiao heard that it was these four kinds of medicinal materials, she couldn't help but lose her composure.
The first three were all fine. He had some impression that they were extremely precious, but they were all within the acceptable range. But Xu Qingxiao couldn't accept the King of Medicines.
What is the King of Medicines? The King of Medicines, this is something that can extend your life, at least for a hundred years.
No matter what your current state is, or whether you are poisoned or not, as long as you swallow a medicine king, you can be immune to all diseases, prolong your life, and forcibly extend your life for a hundred years.
This thing is marketable but priceless, and someone will buy it if it costs one hundred thousand taels of silver.
After all, if your life is extended for a hundred years, why can’t the eight great merchants come up with a hundred thousand taels?
Of course, you can only take one strain of Medicine King in your lifetime. Unless you can find a higher quality miracle medicine, otherwise, a person will be immune after taking one Medicine King.
But it still doesn’t stop Medicine King from being extremely valuable.
The sixth-grade realm-breaking elixir requires a medicine king. This is outrageous.
The other three medicinal materials are also very precious, but they are all within the acceptable range.
He can't stand this Medicine King!
"My little friend, you are wrong. Although the medicinal materials are indeed precious, breaking through the realm. Think about it, if an ordinary warrior wants to break through from the seventh level to the sixth level, can he do it in seventy or eighty years?"
"Some warriors with poor qualifications will never be able to break through this realm in their lifetime. The realm-breaking pill can allow you to reach the sixth level in an instant. It is a cost-effective thing."
Brainwashing Tao from the Ancient Danshen Sutra.
However, Xu Qingxiao is not stupid. You said that he can accept the first three medicinal materials, but he can't do it with the King of Medicines. He can't do it at all.
This is simply too much to do.
"Senior, juniors all understand the truth. It's just that this thing is too precious. Don't say anything else. Even if you sell me, you won't be able to get the Medicine King."
Xu Qingxiao answered seriously.
It's impossible to let the Alchemy Ancient Scripture control everything, you have to bargain.
"Aren't you the Minister of Wei now? Don't the Empress admire you very much? Isn't this possible?"
Dan Shen Gu Jing is a little curious.
"Senior, I am the minister of the Wei Dynasty. It does not mean that the Wei Dynasty belongs to me. The Medicine King is not good enough and I can't get it at all. Senior, please find another one."
Xu Qingxiao is very serious, he doesn't joke.
"In this case, I won't say much. As long as you get these materials, I will not only give you the realm-breaking pill, but also help you refine the first to sixth-grade realm-solidifying pills, how about it!"
The Ancient Alchemy Scripture says that medicinal materials cannot be lacking, but I am willing to give away Grade 1 to 6 Solid Realm Pills as gifts.
Hearing this, Xu Qingxiao nodded slightly. Although it still couldn't change the preciousness of the Medicine King, it at least gave him something. He really wanted to exchange a Medicine King for a Breakthrough Pill.
Xu Qingxiao really couldn't bear to leave.
But Xu Qingxiao still wanted to continue bargaining, but Dan Shen Gu Jing spoke up.
"My little friend, you go and try it first. If you don't try it, how will you know whether you can get it or not? What if you get it? If you really get it, a Medicine King plant won't mean much to you."
"Based on your current situation, at the seventh level, you can definitely live to be 150 years old. After reaching the sixth level, you may be able to live to 200 years old."
"Of course you are the only one who can do it, and others can't. So a King Medicine plant won't be of much help to you in a short period of time."
"listen to me."
The Ancient Alchemy Scripture did not persuade Xu Qingxiao with his advice, but asked Xu Qingxiao to look for it first, not that he would find it today.
"Fine."
Xu Qingxiao sighed, let's look for it first, it's really not urgent for a day or two.
But a problem arises.
The sixth-grade realm-breaking pill uses the King of Medicine. What if it is fifth-grade, fourth-grade, third-grade, second-grade, or first-grade?
It's hard to imagine that something that even Emperor Wu couldn't afford was indeed something.
It was at this time.
Suddenly, a voice suddenly sounded.
It was Li Shouming's voice.
"Teacher, a message has come from the palace, asking you to go to the palace. Your Majesty has something to do with you."
Li Shouming's voice sounded outside.
"Your Majesty, what do you want from me? Why is this woman so troubled?"
Xu Qingxiao murmured in her heart, but she still set off honestly and walked towards the Wei Palace.
Two quarters of an hour.
Xu Qingxiao arrived at the Wei Palace.
The person who leads the way is Li Xian.
As usual, he was doing some chores in the palace.
Although His Majesty established the Chief of Ceremonies, he was not reused. After all, there are many eunuchs in the palace, especially those around the empress. Which one is not loyal to Your Majesty?
Promoting Li Xian directly would make others jealous, and Li Xian would also be easily inflated. Instead, let Li Xian continue to be an ordinary eunuch. It is best to hit a wall. In this case, if you let Li Xian take the position again, the effect would be the best.
good.
Li Xian has to know who asked him to go up there, otherwise just a few words can really make Li Xian be submissive to him?
When he is in trouble, anyone who treats him well is a good person.
When you are in your prime, if you are nice to him, he may think that you are trying to fawn over him.
Xu Qingxiao knew this method well.
Besides, the eunuch party has not developed at all now, it is just a prototype, and there is no rush.
"Your Majesty, why are you looking for me today?"
Xu Qingxiao, who was walking towards the palace, asked, breaking the silence.
"Sir Xu, I don't know what the specific matter is, but I know that two Taoist priests came to the palace, and it may have something to do with them."
Li Xian said with great respect.
"Two Taoist priests?"
Xu Qingxiao became even more curious as to why she was related to the Taoist priest again.
"Yes, Master Xu, they are just two Taoist priests."
"I heard that he seems to be an immortal monk."
Li Xian replied.
"Immortal way?"
Xu Qingxiao became even more curious. He quickened his pace a little and appeared outside the hall soon.
"Announce that Aiqing will enter the palace."
The Queen's voice sounded.
At that moment, Xu Qingxiao walked into the main hall, and her eyes quickly fell on an old man and a young man.
The old man looked at himself with a smile in his eyes.
The young Taoist priest was handsome and had an air of immortality, but his brows were a little indifferent as he looked at himself.
Xu Qingxiao quickly withdrew her gaze and bowed to the empress.
"My lord, Xu Qingxiao, pay homage to your majesty. Long live my emperor."
Xu Qingxiao bowed slightly.
"Xu Aiqing is exempt from the gift."
The empress spoke, then looked at the other two people.
"Xu Aiqing, these two are Taoist Wuchen, the sect leader of the Taishang Immortal Sect, and his beloved disciple, Lu Ziying."
The empress opened her mouth and personally introduced the identities of the two to Xu Qingxiao.
"The Supreme Immortal Sect?"
Although Xu Qingxiao knows nothing about the immortal way, he also knows about the seven major immortal sects in the world.
The Taishang Immortal Sect is vaguely ranked number one. It used to be inferior to the Wei Dynasty, but considering the current national power of the Wei Dynasty, it may not be possible.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingxiao bowed slightly.
"Junior Xu Qingxiao has met Master Wuchen."
"I've met Brother Lu."
Xu Qingxiao was humble and polite, while Taoist Wuchen nodded with a smile, took out a piece of crystal clear pure white jade and said.
"I have always heard about Xu Shouren's reputation. When I saw him today, I realized that I really have the qualities of a saint."
"This object is a magic weapon refined by a poor Taoist. As long as it is crushed, it can block the attacks of any monks below the third level. It is considered a gift from me, an elder. I hope that little friend Xu will not dislike it."
Taoist Wuchen said this, and at the same time gave this magical weapon to Xu Qingxiao.
"Senior praised me, I would like to thank you."
Xu Qingxiao understands this truth, but he doesn't hit the smiling person. In addition, this kind of thing is really useful to him. As his strength increases, Xu Qingxiao understands more and more how strong the high-level warriors are.
The more of these life-saving things, the better, so Xu Qingxiao did not refuse.
At this moment, the empress' voice sounded.
"Xu Aiqing, regarding what Taoist Wuchen did when he came to Kyoto this time, he wanted to ask you to write an anti-evil article to suppress some evil spirits."
"I wonder if Xu Aiqing can help."
The empress spoke up and told what Taoist Wuchen wanted to do with her.
"An article to suppress evil?"
Now it's Xu Qingxiao's turn to be surprised. Write an article to suppress evil?
He really didn't expect that the dignified leader of the Supreme Immortal Sect was looking for him just to make a fuss?
"Xu Xiaoyou, it's difficult to explain the specific things. To put it simply, we have discovered a demon cave, and it is very likely that a demonic disaster will break out."
"In order to prevent the seals of the Demon Cave from loosening, we have prepared some spiritual seals, but there are still a few articles on suppressing evil. Xu Xiaoyou is an eternal talent, and now he has been promoted to a great scholar, so I want to ask for an article on suppressing evil."
"I also hope that little friend Xu will help me for the sake of all the people in the world."
What Taoist Wuchen said is not false. This is the main purpose of his coming to Kyoto this time. Of course, he came to find Xu Qingxiao by the way.
"Senior Wuchen, Xu has little talent and little knowledge. It's not that he doesn't want to help. It's just that there are great scholars in the Wen Palace of Wei Dynasty. For such a matter, let Xu do it."
This time Xu Qingxiao really lost her humility and saved the world.
Brother, you can ask me to compose poems and pretend to beep, but you want me to do this thing?
I can't do it.
"Xu Xiaoyou, in fact, we have already approached the great scholars in the world of literature and art. Xu Xiaoyou can give it a try. If the writing is good, it will be the best. If the writing is not good, it doesn't matter. Just use it as a poem preparation."
Taoist Wuchen smiled slightly.
Looking for Xu Qingxiao was incidental. After all, he was also a great scholar, and the devil's cave was extremely terrifying. It was suspected of being an ancient devil's cave, not to mention a great scholar in the world.
He has even contacted a living saint to take action.
But the more articles about suppressing evil, the better. They contain the power of Confucianism and Taoism and have magical effects. Even if they are a little more powerful, they can at least provide more protection.
"Do I have to write an article? Can I change it to something else?"
Xu Qingxiao hesitated for a while, and then gave this answer,
"Okay, as long as it's text, I'm sorry to bother you, little friend Xu. If we can really seal the big devil, it will be a great merit."
Taoist Wuchen said this.
Lu Ziying on the side did not take it seriously because he knew something. However, this disapproval was not because he looked down upon Xu Qingxiao, but because the matter involved a lot, and his master just called Xu Qingxiao by the way.
"That's okay, but how long will it take?"
Xu Qingxiao continued to ask.
If she had to write an article on suppressing evil, Xu Qingxiao really couldn't think of anything. If she asked herself to write about national security, she would be using modern economic theory to make fools of herself. If she really asked herself to write an article about suppressing evil, I'm sorry for my lack of skills.
If you can write something else, you can also think about it. At the same time, you have to ask about the time. If it takes about three to five days, you can't do it.
"Time is not bad. We have used precious weapons to suppress it. There will be no problems in three to five years. And there is no need to be too impatient, little friend. I am afraid that being impatient will lead to chaos. If it is faster, it will be within three years. If it is slower, it will be within five years."
good."
"I really can't write it, so I won't blame my little friend."
Taoist Wuchen replied like this.
Xu Qingxiao breathed a sigh of relief. After three or five years, it would be fine. When you have nothing to do, you can think about it and then write when you think about it. Xu Qingxiao would still find it a bit tricky in three to five months.
There won't be any problems in three to five years. It's still a long time, so there's no need to worry.
"Okay, then Xu agreed. Confucian scholars serve the common people of the world. This is also the responsibility of Confucian scholars."
Xu Qingxiao answered in the affirmative.
"Then thank you so much, little friend Xu."
Just when Xu Qingxiao was thinking wildly, Taoist Wuchen said this, but the next moment, Xu Qingxiao spoke.
"Taoist Wuchen, if you don't bother me, I would like to ask you for help with something."
Xu Qingxiao spoke up.
"Oh? What's wrong, little friend?"
Taoist Wuchen asked.
"It's not a big deal. It's just that Xu is very interested in the Immortal Way, but it's still a bit obscure just by reading books, so I wonder if Taoist Wuchen can explain something about the Immortal Way to me."
Xu Qingxiao expressed her thoughts.
He is indeed very interested in immortality, not because he wants to cultivate immortality, but because he thinks this immortality has a promising future.
Just like the rain-seeking talisman, can we make fine-tuning changes so that the rain-seeking talisman can be mass-produced? Not to mention mass-produced, at least it doesn't need to be too precious. It is guaranteed that every palace in the Wei Dynasty can store dozens of them.
If you really encounter a drought, snap and throw out a rain charm, which can solve some problems, which is a good thing for the development of the country.
Just when he said this, Taoist Wuchen frowned slightly.
"If the seniors are busy, then forget it. The juniors can also study on their own."
Seeing Taoist Wuchen frowning slightly, Xu Qingxiao didn't say much. It didn't matter if he couldn't help. He just wanted to understand, and he didn't really practice immortality.
"No no no."
"My little friend has misunderstood. It's not that I don't want to teach you, but that I have other important matters and I don't have time to teach you at the moment."
"But it doesn't matter. This is the old man's disciple, Lu Ziying. Although he is young, he has already reached the fourth rank. He may be a little inferior to my little friend."
"But there is no problem in teaching my little friend the Tao of Immortality. It just so happens that my disciple also wants to learn Confucianism and Taoism. The little friend and the old man can help each other and complement each other. Isn't that a nice talk?"
Taoist Wuchen said with a smile.
As soon as he said this, Xu Qingxiao couldn't help but look at Lu Ziying, and Lu Ziying couldn't help being stunned.
When did you say you wanted to learn Confucianism?
But since his master had spoken, and it was in front of His Majesty, Lu Ziying nodded and said, "I have met Brother Xu."
"I've met Brother Lu."
Xu Qingxiao returned the gift and then said.
"In that case, I'll bother you, senior, and brother Lu."
Xu Qingxiao said this.
"You're welcome, little friend."
"Brother Xu is serious."
The two of them talked, but Taoist Wuchen was smiling all over his face, while Lu Ziying was very calm.
"That's very good, Xu Aiqing. You can help Lu Ziying more on Confucianism, and Lu Ziying can help you more on Immortalism. They complement each other, which is great."
The empress spoke out. Although she didn't know why Xu Qingxiao suddenly wanted to study the art of immortality, she still supported it no matter what.
"Okay, Xu Aiqing, Lu Ziying, you two should step back first."
Having said this, the empress spoke and asked the two of them to retreat first.
After all, there's nothing wrong with the two of them.
"That minister will retire first."
"Ziying retires."
Xu Qingxiao and Lu Ziying spoke at the same time.
"Ziying, tutor Qingxiao well, but don't be casual, otherwise you will not be lenient as a teacher."
Before Lu Ziying left, Taoist Wuchen specially reminded him that he was afraid that his disciple would be too cold and arrogant and offend Xu Qingxiao. If this was the case, it would be unnecessary.
"I understand, Master."
Lu Ziying answered somewhat casually, and then walked out of the hall with Xu Qingxiao.
After the two of them walked out of the hall, Lu Ziying's voice sounded.
"Brother Xu, my junior sister happens to be in the Great Wei Palace. Lu Mou goes to find her first. This is a spiritual talisman that can test a person's aptitude for immortality. You take it first, and when you return, you can put a drop of blood on it to test.
Show your immortal aptitude."
"I'll look for you when Lu is done."
Lu Ziying opened her mouth and asked to see her junior sister.
"Okay, Brother Lu, walk slowly. Xu lives in Shouren Academy. If Brother Lu is finished, just come to the school to find Xu."
Xu Qingxiao took the spirit-detecting talisman without saying anything. He bowed slightly, then turned and left.
He could tell that Lu Ziying was a little dissatisfied with him. It was not hatred or contempt, but a disapproval.
It is obvious that Lu Ziying is very arrogant, a little more arrogant than his senior brother Chen Xinghe.
But it doesn't matter. I don't really practice immortality. It's a favor if the other party wants to talk, and it's reasonable if they don't. There's nothing to force.
And looking at Xu Qingxiao leaving, Lu Ziying didn't think anything.
He doesn't hate Xu Qingxiao, nor does he hate Xu Qingxiao, he just thinks that everyone is bragging too harshly, especially his master, who has been talking about how good Xu Qingxiao is in the past few days.
When I saw him today, he was just average. Apart from being handsome, what else is good about him?
As for the five grades of Confucianism and Taoism.
It's not that Lu Ziying is arrogant, it's just that he has not practiced Confucianism. If he had practiced Confucianism, he would definitely surpass Xu Qingxiao.
And can Xu Qingxiao surpass him in practicing immortality? Can she break his record?
The answer is obvious, it's impossible.
Shaking her head, Lu Ziying left and found a eunuch to lead the way to the Scripture-Tiding Pavilion.
And at this time.
Inside the main hall.
The empress's voice sounded slowly.
"What's going on with the Demon Cave?"
the empress asked.
When mentioning this matter, Taoist Wuchen looked serious and did not smile at all.
"Your Majesty, the situation in the Demon Cave is going well so far, but the seal is too old and is a little loose. Although the seven Immortal Sects have joined forces to stabilize the seal, it is still not enough."
"Based on the current situation, the seal will be broken automatically in three years at the fastest and five years at the slowest. The only hope right now is with the Half-Saint."
Taoist Wuchen is very serious,
"If the Half-Saint takes action, how sure are you?"
The empress continued to ask.
"About 70%, plus the magic-suppressing treasure currently being created and the Ten Thousand Buddhist Scriptures copied by the Buddhists, there is a 90% certainty that the demon cave can be suppressed."
"What I'm most worried about right now is not the devil's cave, but whether other evil spirits will take advantage of the situation and attack us while we are strengthening the seal."
Taoist Wuchen is 90% sure of his answer, but this must be done under the premise that no one is sabotaging it. If someone is sabotaging it, it will be different.
"What do you want me to do?"
the empress asked.
"When you ask for the seal, Your Majesty will send two first-grade warriors to protect the law, and then dispatch an army of 200,000 to guard the Demon Cave."
Taoist Wuchen said this.
"No!"
"First-grade warriors are of great significance. They cannot leave the capital of the Wei Dynasty."
"This is absolutely impossible. I can give you an army of five hundred thousand to resist the demons, but first-class warriors are not allowed to come out."
The empress refused directly.
Not only for this reason, but also for several other extremely critical reasons, a first-grade warrior must never show up until the country is destroyed.
This is an unwritten rule.
When Jingcheng was humiliated, why didn't the northern barbarians actually attack Kyoto? The main reason was that they were afraid of first-class warriors.
Otherwise, they would all have reached Jingcheng, which is only five hundred miles away from Kyoto. It doesn't take a day to reach Kyoto.
Therefore, a first-grade warrior is of great significance. It is the heritage and true foundation of the Wei Dynasty.
They must never show up.
"Your Majesty, an army of 500,000 won't be of much use. At least one of the first rank must be invited."
"I hope your Majesty will take care of all the people in the world."
Taoist Wuchen said this, somewhat pleading.
"Master Wuchen, it's not that I'm hard-hearted, but I have my own difficulties, but I can send five great scholars to take charge of you, how about that?"
The empress said, first-level warriors are not allowed, but great scholars can go.
"Oh, thank you Your Majesty."
"In this case, the old Taoist will resign first."
Taoist Wuchen could see that the empress was determined not to agree, so she sighed, agreed, and resigned at the same time.
"Taoist Master, walk slowly."
The empress didn't mean to send her off, she just spoke briefly.
Soon, Taoist Wuchen left, and the empress' eyes were full of strangeness.
She is thinking about many things.
That's it.
An hour later.
In Kyoto during the Great Wei Dynasty, a man and a woman were walking on the street, the man walking in front and the woman walking behind.
The man is extraordinary and handsome, he is Lu Ziying.
The woman was wearing a veil, and although her appearance could not be clearly seen, through her body shape and some mental calculations, she could tell that this woman was definitely not an ordinary beauty, but rather Shui Yunyan.
"Junior sister, we haven't seen each other for a long time. If you don't treat me well, why don't you drag me to Shouren Academy? Why bother?"
Lu Ziying was really depressed.
He didn't know what to say about his junior sister. She had a weird personality and hadn't seen him for a year. He originally thought he would have a good chat with his junior sister and tell some stories about the sect.
But he didn't expect that after his junior sister learned what happened today, she would insist on asking him to go to Shouren Academy to teach Xu Qingxiao the Immortal Way.
This made him a little depressed.
What exactly is the charm of Xu Qingxiao? This junior sister of mine is known as the number one cool fairy in the immortal world.
Why is this happening suddenly?
The next moment, a note appeared in his hand. It was written by his junior sister and threw it over.
"Teach him seriously."
These four words made Lu Ziying a little depressed.
Shui Yunyan behind her had a simple idea. She had always been curious about whether Xu Qingxiao's master had been rescued, but she didn't dare to ask. Now she learned that her senior brother had met Xu Qingxiao, and her senior uncle also asked Lu Ziying to teach Xu Qingxiao.
Immortal way.
Naturally, Shui Yunyan forced her senior brother to find Xu Qingxiao.
Xu Qingxiao wanted to learn the immortal way, maybe for other reasons, Shui Yunyan couldn't care less, but he helped others to the end, Shui Yunyan still hoped that Xu Qingxiao's master could be rescued.
Just like that, the two of them arrived at Shouren Academy.
A note appeared again in Lu Ziying's hand.
"I'm leaving first. Senior brother, teach Xu Qingxiao well, otherwise I'll tell my senior uncle to go."
This was Shui Yunyan's note. The next moment, Shui Yunyan disappeared in place. She didn't like contact with strangers, so she had to muster up her courage to go to Liyang Palace that day.
When I gave the materials to Chen Xinghe, I felt uncomfortable all day, let alone entering Shouren Academy.
Looking at Shui Yunyan's note.
Lu Ziying was a little annoyed.
Teach teach teach!
Teaching is not enough!
I was just wondering, what’s so good about Xu Qingxiao?
Do you really think that he is highly talented in Confucianism and Immortalism?
Okay, you want me to teach you, right? Then I will teach him the most difficult thing and see if he can cultivate to immortality.
Really, don’t waste my time. Isn’t my Lu’s time precious?
Lu Ziying was so angry that he really had no temper.
Thinking of this, he walked directly into Shouren Academy.
Just teach me, it's just a waste of time.
No way, no way, no way?
No one thinks that Xu Qingxiao is both a Confucian and Taoist genius, right?
So what if he is a genius?
Let’s take a step back.
Are you as heroic as I am?
Is it better than Lu Ziying?
If God had not given birth to me, Lu Ziying, the path to immortality would last forever, have you ever heard of it?
Xu Qingxiao? Aren’t you just good at Confucianism?
If I practiced Confucianism, would I be worse than him?
snort!
The next moment, Lu Ziying entered Shouren Academy.
