Since Zhang Yu came back, he has spent the past few days reading Taoist books and sorting out his own Taoism. It has not been long since he embarked on the road of Jixu, and it is also the time when he needs to settle down.
Although the issue of the Yuandu faction has been resolved, the people in the outer layer, Shangchentian, have not retreated. The two sides are still confronting each other. No one can say when a war will start. Therefore, it is not only necessary to establish magical powers,
And it's very urgent.
But he knew in his heart that the more this happened, the more urgent it would be.
If the created magical power is not to your liking, then just recreate it. However, if this leads to a deviation in the understanding of Taoism, then it will take a lot of effort to change it back.
Those Zhenfa monks have the experience and reference of countless predecessors. He can only explore on his own. Not only himself, as the person who pioneered the Xuanfa, the way he followed is also very likely to be learned by later generations, and the impact will be even greater. Therefore,
Also need to be more cautious.
While he was immersed in this, there was movement outside the palace. He concentrated his mind and looked ahead.
As a ray of light flashed outside the palace, Taoist Master Mingzhou walked in from the outside, gave him a slap in the face, and said: "Shou Zheng, this time I will keep Zheng to quell the internal troubles in Yuandu. As usual, the court will give you a meritorious reward. Special reward."
Order it to be delivered tomorrow week."
Zhang Yu's eyes dropped and he took the imperial edict from Taoist Mingzhou. He opened it and saw that this time Xuanting had given a total of 350 minutes of gongxuanliang. He also said later that his contribution was,
It's hard to define, so I just give some praises first, and then tell all the merits after the war is over.
After he read it, he put away the edict and said to Taoist Mingzhou: "Thank you, fellow Taoist."
Taoist Mingzhou said: "Since Shouzheng has received it, Mingzhou will leave." After he saluted, his figure wavered for a moment and then disappeared.
Zhang Yu pondered for a moment, then stood up and returned to the back hall, placing the edict in the pavilion. When he came back, a godman came to report and said: "Keep your guard up, Zhankong Xuanzun is here to visit."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Let me greet you personally." He walked out of the palace and saw Taoist Zhankong standing in front of the steps. He raised his sleeves and saluted, saying, "Senior, you are polite."
Taoist Zhankong hurriedly returned the greeting and said, "Zhang Shouzheng just calls me Taoist friend."
Zhang Yu nodded, took a step sideways, and said, "Fellow Taoist Zhankong, please."
Taoist Zhankong bowed again and followed him to the hall. As he walked, he said, "My incompetent disciple didn't cause any trouble to my fellow Taoist, did he?"
Zhang Yudao: "Although my senior disciple is young, he is very sensible and does not need to worry about me. Everything is fine in Dongting. I have found a good disciple."
Taoist Zhankong shook his head and sighed: "It is like this now, but it may not happen in the future. I am not afraid of jokes from fellow Taoists. I used to have a disciple who was sensible and polite, but now he is too opinionated."
After a pause, he sighed and said: "My Yuandu lineage is very unique because of the inherited skills, making it difficult to find disciples. In addition to being excellent in talent and talent, they also need to be compatible with the skills. At the same time, their character must not be too bad."
, otherwise my senior brother wouldn’t have been searching for him for so many years. Even if he found one a few years ago, he didn’t know what he wanted, and then he went to look for another disciple.”
While they were talking, the two came to the hall and sat down respectively as guest and host.
Zhang Yu ordered the divine man on duty to deliver the spiritual tea. Taoist Zhankong picked it up and took a sip, saying, "Does this seem to be where Taoist friend Yusu got the spiritual tea?"
Zhang Yudao: "Exactly."
Zhankong Taoist said: "I haven't tasted it for many years."
Zhang Yudao: "What happened this time, is Fellow Taoist Zhankong planning to return to Yuandu? Are you still staying at the upper level?"
Taoist Zhankong said: "I have been awarded the title of 'Guanzhi' by Xuan Ting, and I am going to stay at the upper level permanently."
Xuanting actually wanted him to serve as court administrator. After all, Xuanting had made such a proposal when he helped Tianxia in Yuandu to expel Shangchen Tianhou.
But this time, he still declined.
Because in his opinion, this incident was an internal turmoil in Yuandu. It was good enough for Xuan Ting not to care about his own fault. How could he be so shameless as to regard this as his own merit?
Moreover, he doesn't like to deal with mundane affairs, and he is not good at it. Just because of this incident, he also learned a lesson, thinking that maybe it was because there was not much communication between the two parties last time that there was such chaos, and he could not
He wanted to make the same mistake again, so he chose to stay and took up a non-responsible position as a supervisor.
"The old Taoist planned to come to visit fellow Taoist earlier this time. I heard that fellow Taoist has been in retreat these days, so I took the time to do some calculations and realized that fellow Taoist may be free today, so I came here to visit."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly, not surprised by this. This is also the skill that true cultivators are best at. Monks who have practiced for a long time are very good at celestial calculations. As long as the fundamentals of the cultivator are not involved, most of them can calculate accurately.
Taoist Zhankong said again: "My fellow Taoist and I have some connections. I wonder if some of my words are presumptuous?"
Zhang Yudao: "Fellow Taoist, please speak."
Taoist Zhankong said slightly solemnly: "I can't say what your Taoist is capable of. I just observe that your Taoist energy is smooth and your spirit is restrained. This should be a way to correct yourself. This matter cannot be ignored. What we have realized today is,
That’s the journey for another day.”
Zhang Yu was thoughtful, nodded and said: "Thank you, fellow Taoist, for reminding me."
Taoist Zhankong said: "I am not familiar with the mysterious method, but the road to the great road leads to the same destination in different ways." He raised his sleeves and took out a jade slip. These are some Taoist books collected in my Yuandu Sect. Fellow Taoists may wish to take one.
Watch.”
Zhang Yu glanced at it, but did not leave to pick it up, and said: "But is it convenient?"
Taoist Zhankong smiled and said: "It's nothing inconvenient. After my Yuandu sect merged into Tianxia, it was no longer a sect. Besides, after this time, I am also thinking about sending all the Yuandu sect's classics as gifts."
After entering Xuanting, anyone who wants to come and learn from now on can do so."
When Zhang Yu heard what he said, he was no longer polite. He thanked him and took the jade slip. He thought about it and then said: "Dao Youyuan will send the classics to Xuanting, but you have to send them to Xuanting."
Was there a contract before the change?"
You must know that the Yuandu lineage used to have its own place and could not be drafted in case of war. Now it seems that it may have to make even greater changes.
Taoist Zhankong said: "In the past, the two of us always thought that this matter could not be done urgently, fearing that many people in our sect would not be able to accept it at once, so we still worked alone, hoping that it would take hundreds of years for our fellow sects to slowly change their minds.
But I didn’t expect that Junior Brother Ren still took the wrong path. In this case, I will simply be tough and make the decision for them."
Zhang Yu changed his mind, if this is really the case, this time Tianxia will not only eliminate the internal troubles through this crisis, but may also be able to get strong support, not to mention the Xuanzuns of the Yuandu sect, and the likes of Yuandu Xuantu.
The value of magical artifacts is immeasurable.
After Taoist Zhankong chatted with him for a while, he said: "I have been disturbing Shouzheng for a long time this time. From now on, Taoist Taoist will be walking around inside and outside Xuanting. There will be a lot of time to come down and deal with Zhang Shouzheng, so I won't bother you."
When Zhang Yu saw this, he did not say a word and sent him out of the palace in person. After he came back, he continued to study books and practice.
On the wasteland, in a simple but large-scale palace, exquisitely carved statues with graceful lines are displayed all around, and most of them are images of female fairies and spiritual birds and animals, because the carvers
It gives them a certain spirituality, so each one looks smart and natural.
Kuai Jing has been here for many days. He has been supervising Liao Ling's practice these days, but he is not satisfied with the latter's progress.
There was always a kind of vigilance and urgency in his expression, and he said seriously: "Junior brother, your progress is too slow. You must know that those dangers will not wait for us. We don't know when they will come. We must seize them."
Time, you need to be more focused.”
There was a circle of light outside Liao Ling's body. He was restrained here and could not get out. He said feebly: "Brother Kuai, I have tried my best."
Kuai Jing shook his head and said, "No, I don't think you have."
"I..." Liao Ling really wanted to curse.
Kuai Jing said with a heavy expression: "This is the only way."
Liao Ling suddenly felt frightened and said: "You, what do you want to do?"
Kuai Jingchao stood still and glanced somewhere. A beautiful statue of a goddess standing there suddenly collapsed.
Liao Ling screamed and shouted: "Stop, stop!"
Kuai Jing said solemnly: "Junior brother, I know you don't understand my approach, but it doesn't matter. As a senior brother, I will help supervise you. If you don't practice hard, then I will break another statue."
Liao Ling immediately said: "Okay, okay, I'll practice, I'll practice, why don't I practice well?"
He looked at the statue that was broken to the ground and felt extremely sad in his heart. But with Kuai Jing threatening him, he really had no choice but to practice desperately.
In just ten days, his performance has indeed improved a lot.
He was able to be favored by Xun Ji and taken under his sect. His qualifications were naturally not bad, but he had never practiced seriously. But just by doing this, he had reached the realm of Yuanshen Zhaoying. Now in order to protect his statue
, he was forced to practice hard, and his skills were constantly improving.
But every time he practiced, he kept scolding Kuai Jing in his heart, wishing that the latter would die, and wondering when would such dark days end?
One day, he suddenly saw a flying boat flying over his head. He felt happy, but then he thought of something. He looked over there and saw Kuai Jing staring at the flying boat. His heart skipped a beat.
He asked cautiously: "Senior Brother Kuai, you don't think these people are here to deal with us, do you?"
Kuai Jing looked over and said in surprise: "How could it be? Junior brother, I'm not a lunatic. I won't regard everyone as my enemy."
Liao Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and then watched in surprise as Kuai Jing took out a pair of glasses from his sleeves, wiped them with a soft cloth, and then put them on. His eyes were a little strange and he couldn't help asking: "Brother, do you wear glasses?"
do what?"
Normally, a cultivator has sharp five senses, but with a cultivation level like Kuai Jing's, in his opinion, he is one step away from reaching Xuanzun. Where would he need to use such a thing?
Unless this was to hide his identity, but there were only two of them here, so what was he trying to hide?
Kuai Jing replied seriously: "These look like glasses, but they are actually a magic weapon."
Liao Ling looked at him, unable to say anything for a moment, but after Kuai Jing put on his glasses, he always felt that there was something more inexplicable about him.
Kuai Jing then looked at the sky and said, "I've thought about it."
Liao Ling asked in confusion: "What?"
Kuai Jing said in a deep voice: "Junior brother, I have seen your performance improve these days, which shows that my methods are very useful. But it is very unfair to the other disciples to only help you."
There was a look of worry on his face and he said: "They don't know what a terrible world they are in. As a senior brother, I should help them like I helped you."
