Chapter 295 Take advantage of his illness to kill him
"Why did Master leave the Yinxian Sect and join the Tongwei Sect?"
"What does it mean to leave? Tongwei is originally a branch of Yinxian. I have founded many sects. Have you heard of Wushan Sect? At that time, there were all monsters in there..."
"Demon?"
"What's so strange about demons? You're still a demon. Compared to demons, demons are kinder."
Ji Xiang took Miss Shen and followed Zhang Sanfeng away from the mountain gate. As they fled, they entered a secret place. The valley was deep and deep, and the sound of reading could be heard faintly. There was a road entering it, which was built by the imperial court in the past. It is one of the 300 Wudang roads. The ground is paved with large stones and stretches forward. Not far away is the microcosm. The gate is not big and there are seven tile-roofed houses. The smell of incense is very strong.
"Who is reading?"
Miss Shen raised her head and asked more curiously. Zhang Sanfeng showed his spirits slightly, clapped his hands and said to Ji Xiang: "It's great that she can hear that sound. The child you asked the Heavenly Master to send last time can also hear it. Bring her You have brought in two people with good qualities, which are two great things you have done for our sect."
"Grandpa, what is this sound?"
Miss Shen also immediately established a strong relationship. As soon as Grandpa Grandpa called him, Zhang Sanfeng's eyebrows relaxed and his mood became better:
"The Tongwei Sect was established during the Chenghua period. This was originally a place where hermits and ghosts practiced cultivation."
"What you hear is the sound of reading he left here back then. The sound is imprinted on the cliffs and stone walls, and it has lasted for nearly a hundred years."
The little girl was surprised.
During the Chenghua period, it was really, really early.
Ji Xiang also knows about this hidden ghost. It is said that he has reached the realm of pure yin. This is the supreme cultivation of ghosts and immortals, which corresponds to the realm of pure yang.
It is very amazing to be able to cultivate to the level of pure yin in the human world full of yang energy. However, he failed when he was trying to ascend. His soul flew away and he died. All that was left in the world was the afterglow of this hidden sutra.
"Listen to what you can hear. This scripture has a very significant effect on the stability of the soul."
"Since ancient times, there have been countless people who have tried to challenge the immortals, but few have been able to succeed. It is really difficult for Shanhe to become an immortal now."
As Zhang Sanfeng spoke, he spat at Ji Xiang again: "It's all the fault of you devils."
"Since the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is no longer abundant, the calamity of Mokao should be appropriately lowered."
Ji Xiang heard that the old man was such a scoundrel, and he also responded: "Master, what you said is wrong. You don't need a magic test to dissect the corpse. If you sleep easily, you will be a god when you wake up."
I thought to myself, if I perform the autopsy now, the next time I wake up it will be the 21st century.
"Master said it is difficult to become an immortal, but your practice makes you a real immortal."
Zhang Sanfeng asked without looking back: "How many immortals are there left in the world?"
"Those who haven't woken up also count?"
Ji Xiang asked.
Zhang Sanfeng shook his head: "No, I'm talking about those who have woken up. How many immortals do you know now, excluding those who have awakened from corpses?"
"Two corpse exterminators, the Heavenly Master, a Song Immortal, and three others I don't know, one of whom has a strong demonic aura."
"Now it seems that one of the three unknown people is you."
Ji Xiang responded, Zhang Sanfeng led the two of them into Tongwei. There were quite a few disciples in the temple. At a glance, there were seventeen of them standing in the punishment station. The children of the craftsmen from Shuntian Mansion who were brought by the Tianshi were also among them. They combed their hair. He looked like an adult, then stood at the door holding a scripture, listening to the severe reprimand of a Taoist priest in blue.
The Taoist priest in green clothes wears copper rings in his ears, walnuts on his sleeves, and a bell on his wrist. When he shakes it, it sounds like thunder and thunder, which lasts for a long time.
Seeing Ji Xiang coming back, the craftsman's boy's eyes suddenly shone, but the Taoist priest in green next to him was still scolding him, so he quickly lowered his head.
Ji Xiang smiled knowingly, met the Taoist priest in green, and bowed to each other.
"Junior Brother Ji has completed his career and returned to Wudang? This is too soon."
"Senior Brother Lian, I haven't come back yet..."
Zhang Sanfeng interrupted the two people's reminiscence and ordered the Taoist priest in green: "Bu Yun, bring those two sleepy little guys to my room."
The Taoist priest in green responded and asked many disciples to continue standing for punishment, and then he went to the backyard of the Taoist temple.
At this time, the three of them entered the Guanzhong house. Zhang Sanfeng pulled three futons, sat down one by one, and said slowly:
"Besides, is there no one else?"
Ji Xiang thought for a moment: "Xu Fu, he is still alive, but according to my induction, he is not one of the eight immortals."
"Xu Fu...oh, that old guy is indeed not an immortal. He was an immortal when he was in Japan, and it doesn't count after he comes out. He is just a fake immortal. It is said that he looks like this, imitating Dong Zhongshu who used to copy cats and tigers to gather national fortunes.
Jia Shen wants to achieve the unity of Heaven and Dao,
At that time, the way of heaven was still very close to the human world. Xu Fu hoped to create a divine kingdom on the earth, but something went wrong and his own body was imprisoned on the islands and could not get out.
I'm still gasping for breath, but I don't know the details."
"I once looked for Dongfang Shuo and tried to join him, but in the end they turned against each other. The alchemists were also divided into two groups. Most of the alchemists who couldn't survive under Dongfang Shuo went to Xu Fu, just like the Canghai Lord at the end of Qin Dynasty, picking up things everywhere.
Rubbish."
"Of course, I'm not talking about Xu Fu alone. There are other people before the Jin Dynasty. Their practice methods are different from yours, so as a demon, you may not be able to sense them, just like you said about corpses.
There is no need for a magic test to understand the immortal, after all, there was no such thing as a magic test before the Jin Dynasty."
"But, strictly speaking, the real demon test was established in the early Song Dynasty. Although the practice world of the Jin Dynasty already had the term demon king, they experienced too much turmoil in the middle. By the Sui and Tang dynasties, they had their own
The way of practice does not rely on the blessings of predecessors, so Tang Xian is special."
"Later in the Song Dynasty, in the previous practice, doing good things and doing bad things all depended on one's own thoughts. Until then, some people came out and said that this is not good and that we need to regulate it, so they took over the throne of Yuanshi Tianzun. I don't know where to start from.
Wherever I finally succeeded in attracting a group of demons, so there was a demon test."
Ji Xiang thought thoughtfully: "What's the way to become an immortal besides dismembering corpses?"
Zhang Sanfeng: "Here we have to talk about the Earth Immortal."
"Earth Immortals, who are on the golden elixir path, cannot use the techniques of heavenly immortals. Now, we will use the cultivation of golden elixir as the proof of entering the earth immortal level, and the ascension as the proof of entering the heavenly immortal level."
"Ge Hong said that when the form and spirit are in harmony, it is a person or an object; if the form and spirit are separated, it is a spirit or a ghost."
"The basis of the Immortal Way is the phase of both separation and union! When combined, one rides on the clouds and rides on the dragon, which refers to the Heavenly Immortal; when separation means the corpse is dissolved and transformed into matter, then it is the corpse-decomposing Immortal! The Heavenly Immortal is the supreme life, and the corpse is the supreme death, Taoism
The practice is not like Confucianism, which upholds the art of the golden mean, but the art of polarized yin and yang. If you want to achieve great achievements, you must either live or die!"
"And the earthly immortals have neither the form of corpse dismemberment nor the talent of heavenly immortals. They just wander in the human world and do not have great supernatural powers. In fact, it is the golden mean, for those who can neither become immortals nor dare to perform corpse dismemberment."
The prepared path is now the path of practice, the art of golden elixir."
"So, for some monks who are not yet full of heavenly immortals and have not yet transformed into earthly immortals, their bodies and spirits will gradually decay. This is because earthly immortals rely on refining their bodies to stay in the world. If they fail to become heavenly immortals, their bodies and spirits will deteriorate as time goes by.
Over time, it was invaded by miasma, contaminated by all kinds of filthy gases, poisoned by incense and many other phenomena, and gradually decayed."
"And these monks who have cultivated to the half-immortal form, such as Xu Fu, must have changed their form and spirit many times, because their form and spirit no longer belong to the human form in the world, but have the form of an immortal, but the appearance of mountains and rivers
There is no environment to support the immortal form, so it is normal for the body and spirit to decay. When the appearance decays, the mind will also decay, and finally become a monster that is neither human nor immortal."
"The same goes for the immortals who descended to the human world. When they reach the human world, they are demoted immortals. Immortals who have achieved success in the human world can go up to the mountains and rivers, but they cannot come down easily. Even if they come down, they need to destroy the form of the immortal in the past and then turn back.
The same is true for your own realm."
"These immortals before the Jin Dynasty, due to the inconsistent cultivation methods at that time, some people cultivated the complete form of immortals, but they did not have the power of immortals. They stayed in the world for a long time without immortal power, and eventually perished.
At the foundation of existence, there is only an unconscious illusory form and spirit left. At this time, it is no longer possible to say that they
Still alive; some have cultivated the power of immortals but do not have the form of immortals, so their original forms and spirits gradually decay. Such people can be called fake immortals, but because they do not have the form of immortals, they do not deserve the name of immortals.
"Fake immortals are just a general term for them by us real immortals. It is actually inappropriate to say that they are immortals."
Ji Xiang suddenly understood.
It turns out that the so-called false immortals and false immortals shown in the interior scene of the Second-turn Immortal Pill are like this!
Immortals who live in one place without being able to move are called false immortals! Immortals are free from restraints, travel across the sea and live in Kunlun at dusk. Those who only possess immortal power in a certain place are false immortals.
Those who have decayed forms and spirits and only have power are called false! Because the nature of immortals is immortal, those who are decayed are not immortals, so those who are powerful and invisible are called false immortals.
At this time, the door of the tile house slowly opened.
Gu Jian
The Taoist priest in Tsing Yi sent the two people over. They closed their eyes and walked in like controlled puppets. Zhang Sanfeng stretched out his hand again, and two rotten futons flew out from under the statue of Sanqing. The Taoist priest in Tsing Yi scolded and sat down.
He sat down on the futon, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, closed his eyes tightly, and breathed steadily, but it was as if he had lost three souls and could not wake up.
Ji Xiang also saw his three corpse gods. The three little corpse gods were wandering behind them. They had lost their legs and looked like wandering ghosts. They were lonely and helpless. However, they had no self-awareness. They only followed Ji Xiang's instructions.
The order was followed, and at this time the three gods returned to their positions, turning into three streams of incense and returning to Ji Xiang's body.
Zhang Sanfeng stroked his beard: "It's strange, are these three corpses yours or my disciple's?"
Ji Xiang inhaled the incense and responded respectfully: "It's mine."
"I have the art of resurrecting three corpses, so I can naturally use it on myself."
Zhang Sanfeng's expression suddenly changed, he pointed at Ji Xiang and said, "That's why the old Taoist is most afraid of people like you!"
The Taoist priest in green was a little confused at this time, why his teacher was pointing at his junior brother, cursing here, and saying "such things".
Zhang Sanfeng looked at the Taoist priest in Qingyi and waved his hand to let him out. Qingyi retreated and Zhang Sanfeng cursed again: "The old Taoist finally killed the three corpses, but I'm afraid that when I meet someone like you, the three corpses of the old Taoist will regenerate!"
Ji Xiang laughed: "That's right! Master is the immortal who kills corpses, so this is where he is afraid of his disciples."
King Lu once mentioned that there are many ways to become an immortal, and beheading three corpses is one of them, and it is relatively harsh. Only those with great perseverance cannot succeed, because in legend, the Corpse God is sent by God to monitor every person's body.
The spirit of the spirit has the same origin as the human body itself and is difficult to kill. Once the three corpses are killed, the name of death can be eliminated. No evil method in the world can be added to the body, and it is an immortal body.
Seeing Zhang Sanfeng's serious face, Ji Xiang quickly changed the subject and talked about the Qingyi Taoist:
"I never thought that my senior brother's aura is restrained, his divine light is gone, and only his brows are a little clear. He has obviously achieved great success in refining the gods, and is not far away from the pure yang realm where he will shine brightly."
"Then you want to open the door for him?"
Old man Zhang was not angry.
"That's not possible. The disciple has not yet reached that level of cultivation."
Ji Xiang also admitted that his cultivation level was not enough.
Zhang Sanfeng wanted Ji Xiang to open the door for Lian Buyun, but Ji Xiang couldn't help people cheat in the exam. At most, he would interfere with the small magic test. The big magic test would interfere, like King Lu.
In that case, the examinee himself would need to commit a serious crime, and then the demon kings would come down to the lower world, but that would be because of his own reporting.
If he wants to help people overcome the tribulation of the devil, Ji Xiang thinks that his cultivation is far from perfect.
As for Zhang Tianshi's time, it was purely an accident. It was an extra operation that could only be performed during his own exam, and he could no longer do it again.
When Zhang Sanfeng heard Ji Xiang say snitching, his expression suddenly changed again.
"You said you would also slander the devil?"
Ji Xiang: "It's just reporting all kinds of good and evil things in the world. How can it be called slander?"
Zhang Sanfeng: "Isn't this the job of the Corpse God? You are not a demon at all, you are the Corpse God transformed into a spirit!"
Ji Xiang: "Master, you must be a treacherous person who kills three corpses and becomes an immortal."
Zhang Sanfeng was very angry: "Heavenly demons can also practice!"
"Of course, the devil has his own way of practicing."
"It must be the Yuqing Hidden Sutra!"
"!"
Zhang Sanfeng obviously didn't know the details of the Celestial Master's Chongju, but when he said the Jade Purity Hidden Sutra of Celestial Demon Cultivation, Ji Xiang was slightly surprised, but then he looked relieved.
"Why aren't you surprised when my Tao reveals your exquisite cultivation?"
Zhang Sanfeng deliberately asked, and Ji Xiang responded calmly: "There was once a clear immortal in the mountains and rivers who said the name of the magic of destroying the demons and scenery, and clearly stated that this sutra should not appear on human monks."
Zhang Sanfeng snorted, and then explained: "The Heavenly Demon Destruction Scenery and the Yuqing Hidden Book have only been seen in classics in the past. This is the first time I have encountered someone who can actually practice it. It was said that there was a great talent in the Shangqing Dynasty who wanted to practice it.
Sutras, but the result is a very miserable death, with the soul being divided and eaten by thousands of demons."
"So we come to the conclusion that the Yuqing Hidden Book is a scripture for the practice of demons, not something that mortals can practice. But you also know that there is no Yuqing Tao in the world, only Taiqing Tao and Shangqing Tao. The Yuqing Tao is the source of the Shangqing Tao.
, but it can also be said to be a branch. After all, the number of Yuqing monks is too small, so they are classified as Shangqing."
"There are hidden books in Yuqing, Taiqing, and Shangqing. Naturally, there are hidden books in Shangqing. Among them, the hidden books in Shangqing are the Shangqing ancestral scriptures, also called ancestral symbols..."
Ji Xiang: "I have heard a little bit. It is said that the Shangqing Ancestor Sutra has appeared in the human world, but I don't know where it is. The two branches of the Shangqing Sect are intervening in human affairs for this reason. Yuqing is cultivating demons, what is Shangqing cultivating?
?”
"Cultivating ghosts is cultivating the way of ghosts and gods."
Zhang Sanfeng stood up and pointed to the two people who were sent in and sat on the futon: "The situation these two people are encountering now is related to the art of Shangqing."
Ji Xiang looked at Feng Xiucai and Hu Xiaoshi, frowning deeply: "I have already gone to Maoshan Mountain in Qing Dynasty to make a big fuss. I have never seen this kind of magic before."
"Did you cause trouble in Shangqing?"
Zhang Sanfeng was surprised: "You have such courage, do you know that behind the Shangqing there are two big heavenly palaces, six small heavenly palaces, eleven ascending peaks, and two heavenly states of mind!"
"Although Biao Shanhe and the others are not as good as Taiqing Dao, Li Shanhe's power is not weak at all!"
Ji Xiang was surprised: "I killed the second ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty and seriously injured the third ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty. I think it's not that powerful."
Immediately he thought of something and suddenly said curiously: "Speaking of which, when my disciple seriously injured the third ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty, he used your rootless technique."
"What! Rootless Technique? How do you know my Rootless Technique? Except for me, everyone else in the world who knows my Rootless Technique is dead. I never taught you!"
Zhang Sanfeng was shocked. He had passed down the song of rootlessness, but he had not passed on the technique of rootlessness to anyone after the Zhengtong years. He even changed his name several times, and rejuvenated and grew up again several times.
, just to wash away Zhang Sanfeng’s identity.
Ji Xiang claimed to have used rootless techniques to severely injure the three ancestors of the Qing Dynasty. Zhang Sanfeng had no doubt that he was bragging.
"This matter is true, and the disciple has not lied. In fact, there are many weird things about the Shangqing Sect. They divided their own sect, and went to seize the Dharma Realm of Yinshan Mountain, build the Palace of Biyou, and abandon the Sword of Qingping. However, what Master said is the Shangqing Sect.
The Qingyin Sutra is the art of cultivating ghosts and gods, so the matter of Biyou Palace robbing the Yinshan Dharma Realm seems to make sense..."
"Did you really hurt the third ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty? But that Xu Changshi!"
"It's Chief Xu."
"How did you learn my rootless technique?"
"My disciple is a demon. Demons have great wisdom. How can they not learn from it? Once they understand nothingness, they will naturally master it."
Ji Xiang boasted breathlessly. Zhang Sanfeng took a picture of a chapter without words in white characters, pointed at it and said, "Write it for me."
Ji Xiang formed a lead energy from his body, which circulated the roots of heaven and earth, and wrote it on the white urn with divine characters. When Zhang Sanfeng saw it, he suddenly lost his mind: "It's really my rootless talisman!"
"How can the secret of the hidden immortal be known to the devil!"
Then he became a little annoyed: "You used Wugen Technique to hurt the Third Patriarch of the Shangqing Dynasty. I really don't know whether to laugh or scold you. If it were in the past, I would definitely praise you, but now, how can the Yinxian Sect provoke this?"
Such a huge thing!"
Ji Xiang was stunned and just about to apologize, Zhang Sanfeng beat his chest and stamped his feet, sighing:
"You can't kill anyone with all your fighting!"
"Just wait, I will send a message to your master, Huolong Zhenren, and ask him to assassinate the third ancestor of the Shangqing Dynasty immediately, so that our Yinxian Sect can be stable for a while! While he is sick and will kill him, in
Before he takes revenge on me, take revenge on him first."
