In ancient times, the land of Huaxia was rich in spiritual energy, and without the modern technologies of today, the various Taoist sects developed extremely rapidly and had great influence.
But now, technology is the primary productive force, and air pollution is serious. Even the aura of heaven and earth has been polluted. Real Taoist masters basically do not walk in the world, but hide in the mountains and rivers where the air is fresh and aura is abundant.
During the period, he rarely participated in worldly affairs.
After all, their cultivation process is a process of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to cleanse themselves. If they stay in the secular world for a long time, the seriously polluted spiritual energy will even cause the deterioration of their cultivation. Especially for the disciples who are still in shallow cultivation, they will not be able to survive in the secular world.
Staying there for a month and eating some worldly food would be enough to destroy the foundation of his spiritual practice.
After all, the power of waste oil, poisonous rice, waxed fruits, contraceptive fish, big-headed doll milk powder and other foods are quite terrifying. Only some seniors with relatively high cultivation levels can leave the deep mountains and old forests where their sects are located, and
Walking in the secular world, slaying demons, or recruiting a few disciples. Nowadays, it is becoming more and more difficult for these sects to find a few disciples with good skills.
Although these children's immunity has been greatly enhanced by drinking Big-headed Baby milk powder and eating gutter oil-poisoned rice since childhood, at the same time, their body's spirituality has been completely destroyed by these things, making it impossible for them to embark on the journey.
The path of spiritual practice.
And in a hotel in Bozhou City, there are several old Taoist priests from a sect living there. These old Taoist priests come from the Lingbao Sect of Zhengdao. The Lingbao Sect was founded very early. In the late Eastern Jin Dynasty, it was already
With the Ancient Lingbao Sutra, it has a long history. The Lingbao sect pays attention to the cultivation of merits and rituals, and devalues the Danding, Fangzhongshu, etc. The Lingbao sect has produced many masters, such as Zheng Yin, Ge Hong, etc.
Everyone is the sage of Lingbao Sect.
Of course, with the development so far, all the Taoist sects have been considered defeated and have almost no influence in the secular world. There are not many disciples, and they can only work hard to pass on the teachings of their own lineage in the deep mountains and old forests.
Of course, many accidents also occurred during this period. Many sects have lost their inheritance. The sects that were prosperous in ancient times have now become shabby Taoist temples. There are even only broken walls and some ruins left.
There are only a few or a dozen people in the sect who are working hard to continue the inheritance, but it is becoming increasingly difficult.
Because today's practice is extremely difficult, it is not easy to practice to the state of Bigu. Before that, even Taoist priests needed food, clothing, housing and transportation, and if the number of people was too small, it would be impossible in the deep mountains and old forests.
Survive, and then move to the secular world to survive in desperation.
Then they began to retreat in their cultivation, and finally became obsolete to everyone. However, they had no other abilities and could hardly survive in this world. Finally, they had no choice but to embark on the road of fraud.
.
The real Taoist priests are all in the deep mountains and old forests and cannot come out to tell people's fortunes. As for those who specialize in fortune telling and Feng Shui to deceive, a small number of them just read some Taoist classics casually and then come out to deceive.
A large part of them once had some cultivation skills and then walked in the secular world. Due to the influence of dirty spiritual energy and various dirty waste oil and other food, their skills were wasted in just a few months and turned into
Ordinary people, then have to embark on the road of cheating in order to survive.
And because they were all once true Taoist priests, even if their skills have been abolished, they still have a different temperament from ordinary people. This is the so-called immortal Taoist bone. Because of this, so many people are easily deceived.
.
As for the Lingbao Sect, it seems to be a sect with a relatively good inheritance. There are now more than 200 people in the entire sect. They have established their own Taoist temple on Zhongshan Mountain in Duanzhou. More than 200 people are enough to maintain it.
To support their own livelihood, every once in a while, the Lingbao Sect would send people to recruit some new disciples to replenish fresh blood and prevent the Lingbao Sect from losing its inheritance.
But this time, until now, the old Taoist priests of Lingbao Sect have not been able to find a suitable disciple. Most of them have lost their spirituality due to eating contaminated and poisonous food and breathing polluted air.
The parents of the missing children did not believe this at all and directly regarded these old Taoist priests as child traffickers.
When several families heard what the old Taoist priest said, they called the police directly and called the nearby neighbors to help drive them away. So it has been half a month since they came out, and the old Taoist priests have not been able to complete their tasks. They are also preparing to return.
They went back after a while because they couldn't come out for too long.
The aura of the secular world is too filthy. Even if they are all old Taoist priests with relatively advanced cultivation, they can only resist it for a month. Over time, their cultivation will be affected, and their Taoism will also be affected.
had declined, so even if there was no harvest, they had to go back.
At the same time, they are also worried. It is so difficult to recruit disciples now. I am afraid that in a few decades, their Lingbao sect will be like those sects that have disappeared in the long river of history. They will have to leave the mountains and enter the secular world.
Eventually he became one of the liar Taoist priests.
However, just when the old Taoist priests of Lingbao Sect were worried and unable to sleep, and were meditating in the hotel, suddenly there was a loud thunder, and a group of old Taoist priests of Lingbao Sect also rushed out of the hotel quickly, and then
Rushing towards the direction of Zhan Fei's home, the speed of these old Taoist priests was no worse than those of martial arts masters. This was because the spiritual energy of the world was dirty and their strength was also affected.
If the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on earth today can be the same as in ancient times, then these old Taoist priests can directly breathe in and out of spiritual energy to fly to the sky and escape from the earth, which is far more powerful than ordinary warriors. Due to environmental problems, the strength that these old Taoist priests can exert is also very weak.
And soon, a group of Taoist priests had arrived a thousand meters away from Zhanfei's home. From a distance, they could see that it was a courtyard shrouded by a mysterious shield, and in the mid-air, black
Clouds pressed down on the city, dark clouds gathered on top, lightning flashed and thunder roared. Thick thunder and lightning burst out from the dark clouds, and then fell heavily on the courtyard, and were blocked by the mysterious light shield.
All the old Taoist priests took a deep breath. What kind of power is this, so powerful? (To be continued...)
