Thirty-three Levels of Lihentian, Tushita Palace, Taishang Laojun’s dojo.
Tieguai Li had been hesitating in front of the door for a long time. Two boys were guarding there, saying that the Supreme Master was refining elixirs. The most critical moment had come, and even the two of them were kicked out.
Tieguai Li was also very helpless. One day in the sky was equivalent to one year in the world. If he delayed himself and went back to the lower world, he might not be able to find any clues.
"Li Xuan, please come in."
While Tieguai Li was waiting anxiously, a deep voice came from Tushita Palace.
"Li Xuanjin obeys the master's order——"
Tieguai Li first bowed towards the Tushita Palace, and then slowly walked inside under the guidance of two boys.
There are very few people coming to Tushita Palace. Except for two boys on duty, even Taishang Laojun’s disciples often come to say hello, making the place even more empty.
"Disciple Li Xuan, I have seen the master——"
Taishang Laojun has several disciples, such as Changmei Zhenren, Zhang Daoling, the leader of the four heavenly masters, or Tieguai Li in front of them, etc. However, when they meet Taishang Laojun, they only call him "Master".
Master Xuandu is the only "Master".
"Did you just come back from the lower world? Who got the flying sword?"
Taishang Laojun is holding a pill in his hand, which he has just refined, but he is not very satisfied with it.
There was a slight fluctuation in Laojun's mood just now. This has never happened in hundreds of millions of years.
When it comes to the art of deduction, even if Taishang Laojun is not the first person in the three realms, he is definitely one of the few people at the top.
However, after he had calculated for a long time, he had no clue about the missing flying swords. He could not even feel the existence of those flying swords, as if they were no longer within the Three Realms.
You must know that those thirteen flying swords were forged by Taishang Laojun himself. If you want to completely erase his mark, you will have to encounter the saints of heaven or those innate treasures.
Is that possible?
Who would care about the thirteen flying swords if it were really a saint from heaven, or those few innate treasures? Taken together, they are nothing more than acquired spiritual treasures.
"Master Qi, the disciple is incompetent. When the disciple arrived, there was no trace of those flying swords."
"Among the people present, Sha Wujing definitely didn't dare and couldn't take it, and Brother Tianpeng wouldn't even hide it. The remaining Tang Monk, Xiao Bailong and His Highness Prince Jin of the Tang Dynasty couldn't take it even if they wanted to.
I don’t have that strength.”
"Only Sun Wukong has some tricks, but the disciple has also investigated, and he probably didn't take action, and the disciple doesn't think he will be interested in those thirteen flying swords."
Tieguai Li analyzed everyone at the scene one by one. His analysis was reasonable and reasonable, and even Taishang Laojun did not find any faults.
"Not long after the disciples arrived, Guanshiyin Bodhisattva from Nanhai arrived with Hui'an Monk. They came to let Monk Tang accept Sha Wujing as his disciple and help them cross the Liusha River westward."
Taishang Laojun naturally knew what was going on in the Liusha River. He himself was one of the insiders about the journey to the west. It was expected that Tang Monk would accept Sha Wujing and Guanyin Bodhisattva to help him cross the river.
However, the incident of losing the flying sword made Taishang Laojun couldn't help but think more. This is not too difficult. Does Guanyin Bodhisattva really need to be present in person?
"Li Xuan, tell me everything you see and hear, down to the smallest details."
Even if Taishang Laojun is good at deduction, it will never be as realistic as experiencing it in person. Tieguai Li did not dare to neglect, and told the whole story exactly.
Including how he greeted Zhu Bajie, how he asked and explored everything he could, and after the arrival of Guanyin Bodhisattva, he successively had conversations with Tang Monk and Jin Wang Li Zhi.
"You are saying that Venerable Guanyin intended to accept the King of Jin of the Tang Dynasty as his direct disciple, but he refused?"
After listening to it, Taishang Laojun seemed to feel that he had grasped the key point. Among all the details, only this one was the most unexpected.
You must know that the image of Guanyin Bodhisattva is extremely respected among the entire human race. Everyone knows that it is the "Great Merciful and Great Compassion" Guanyin Bodhisattva, and they wish that all the gods and Buddhas in the sky could not be as popular as Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Even though the Tang Dynasty advocated Taoism, and Taishang Laojun was considered the leader of Taoism, he was not confident that his followers could surpass Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Is it that a strong man and a wise man who is highly respected by the world, proposed to accept a direct disciple, but was rejected by His Highness the King of Jin of the Tang Dynasty?
When Taishang Laojun asked this question, Tieguai Li also felt that something seemed a little abnormal.
"Sir, please excuse my disciple's stupidity. Li Zhi, the king of Jin in the Tang Dynasty, is only a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is also a 'Tianluo body'. I can't see what's so special about him?"
"Oh, another 'Heavenly Leakage Body'?"
Taishang Laojun frowned and his pupils shrank, as if he thought of something weird?
"You don't need to pursue this matter any further. It's just thirteen flying swords. It seems that the punishment of the Curtain Roller has also expired."
"Where did fellow Taoist Li Er go? You try to find him for me. Maybe he can do some things, and the result will be better."
Li Er, who is called "Laozi" by the human race, is also one of the incarnations of Taishang Laojun. Taoism in the world is actually founded by Li Er.
Nowadays, the Li Tang royal family in the world respects Li Er as their ancestor. Could it be that the Supreme Lord also takes a fancy to this?
His intentions were unpredictable, so Tieguai Li bowed to accept his orders and slowly exited the "Tushita Palace".
……
"Little Bailong, do you really feel that there is a treasure here?"
At the bottom of the Liusha River, Sun Wukong and Li Zhi have been searching here for three days with the little white dragon Ao Lie, but they have found nothing.
Not to mention any treasures, not even decent ordinary things. I don’t know how Monk Sha got here all these years. Has he been practicing hard like this?
"Elder brother, let's look for it again. My feeling is getting stronger and stronger, as if someone is calling me——"
Sun Wukong gave him a roll of his eyes. This is what the little white dragon said two days ago. Two days later, he still said the same thing.
"Senior Brother, Senior Brother Ao, the bottom of the Liusha River is so big, why don't we search separately. Whoever finds it first will crush the talisman, and the other two can rush over as soon as possible."
Seeing Sun Wukong's listlessness and Little White Dragon's complacency, Li Zhi suggested helplessly.
In this way, the three of them separated from the place where Monk Sha originally lived. Xiao Bailong went south, Sun Wukong went north, and Li Zhi was the most lazy and went directly west, which was only eight hundred miles at most.
Let’s not talk about Sun Wukong and Xiao Bailong, but just Li Zhi.
Since the opportunity belonged to Xiao Bailong Ao Lie, Li Zhi didn't take it too seriously. This kind of thing can't be solved by taking care of it.
At the bottom of the Liusha River, Li Zhi truly felt the beauty of "avoiding water beads".
There was no drop of water in the distance of about three feet in front and behind him. The boundless layer of water not far away made Li Zhi feel that everything was so unreal.
Thinking of the treasure hunt under the "Yingchou Stream", Li Zhi remembered that there was a seedling of "True Sun Fire" in his Dantian.
On weekdays, he is busy practicing "Cangming Jue" and combat techniques, and he really didn't pay much attention to the "True Sun Fire". It was only then that Li Zhi remembered it when he was "treasure hunting" again here.
With a thought in his mind, the flame of "True Sun Fire" began to beat on Li Zhi's left hand, seeming a little shy and a little excited.
If Li Zhi hadn't used his magical power to imprison him, the flames of the "True Sun Fire" seemed to have escaped from his palms. What attracted it was the boundless weak water?
Water and fire are incompatible. As soon as the flames of the "True Sun Fire" appeared, the surrounding river water seemed to be agitated. It wanted to rush towards Li Zhi, but was separated by the "water-avoiding beads".
"What's going on?"
Li Zhi was a little puzzled. The flame of "True Sun Fire" in his left palm went up and down, as if he was nodding at Li Zhi, or begging?
"Little guy, what do you mean? Do you want to leave me, or do you want to play with those weaklings?"
Li Zhi didn't understand what he meant, but he was talking stupidly to the flame in his hand. Unexpectedly, the "Sun Real Fire" flame became even more excited.
"Is it really true?..."
Li Zhi made a move with his right hand, attracting some weak water, about the size of half a bowl, and held it in the palm of his right hand.
The left hand is "Sun True Fire", and the right hand is a bay of weak water, held flat in front of the body.
Li Zhi controlled the weak water in his right hand and dripped it drop by drop on the "True Sun Fire" in his left hand. It was like oil dripping on a fire, and white smoke rose up.
Then, the flames of "The Sun is Really Fire" seemed to really grow a little bit?
Li Zhi was dumbfounded, can it still be done like this?
Li Zhi has completely learned how to cultivate and use the "True Sun Fire". This "True Sun Fire" is very delicate. In addition to using Li Zhi's own magic power to warm it up, it also requires heavenly materials and earthly treasures to complete it.
growth.
What Li Zhi didn't expect was that the weak water in the Liusha River could actually be used to cultivate the "True Sun Fire", which would be much easier to handle.
How much weak water must there be in the vast Liusha River? Is it enough to raise the "True Sun Fire"?
Now that he found out that this was effective, Li Zhi simply stopped delaying and sat cross-legged on the futon, holding the "True Sun Fire" in one hand and attracting weak water with the other hand, and began to feed the "True Sun Fire".
Time passed bit by bit, and the flame of the "True Sun Fire" in the left hand continued to refine the weak water that Li Zhi brought over, and it became larger and stronger visibly to the naked eye.
No sunlight can shine through the bottom of the Liusha River, and Li Zhi doesn't know how much time has passed. Fortunately, he is no longer restricted by light and can see things under any circumstances.
"Haha, what a funny boy, you actually thought of using weak water to refine fire? No, is that the 'True Sun Fire' in your hand?"
Suddenly, a voice came from Li Zhi's mind, which seemed to be very close and yet very far away.
"Who?——"
Li Zhi ignored the practice of "True Sun Fire" and hurriedly put it into his Dantian again. The "Cangming Jue" was spread all over his body, and he looked around cautiously.
It's a pity that Li Zhi couldn't find anyone wherever he could see.
"Haha, stop looking for me, kid. You can't see me. When you used the weak water to refine the 'True Sun Fire', the white smoke that came up was quite interesting. I don't know how long I have been sleeping, but I am still sleeping.
I can’t bear the temptation of such delicious food."
Delicious? Tempting?
Li Zhi doesn’t know why.
"Who are you? You are very sneaky. If you really don't want to show up, please forgive me for not accompanying you."
Sun Wukong and Little White Dragon were not around, and Li Zhi didn't want to cause trouble, so he cupped his hands into the void and continued to go west.
"Hey, kid, don't leave. You woke up my old man. You can chat with me, right? It would be better if you take out the white smoke again and let me take a few puffs."
Li Zhi was sweating furiously. Is this an addict?
It seems that in the entire immortal and Buddhist system in China, I have never heard of anyone having such a hobby.
Li Zhi couldn't find the other party, so he simply stopped talking, but the voice didn't want to stop. It seemed that he hadn't spoken to anyone for too long, and kept chattering.
"Well, I don't have much time left. Although I don't know where I'm going, it's a fate to meet you before I leave."
"It's a pity that although you can practice my skills, it's a bit too wasteful. I wish you were a dragon."
The voice continued to mumble.
"Senior...Senior, are you saying that you are looking for a dragon?"
At the end, Li Zhi stopped. In other words, he found that no matter how he walked, it was in vain. The voice always sounded in his ears like a ghost.
"Yes, I am a dragon. Of course, it is easier to pass on my skills as a dragon. As a human being, your bones are so-so, but your physical body is too bad."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Being called worthless by the other party, Li Zhi couldn't get angry easily. Speaking of his physical body, he is definitely an outstanding existence among the same level, but he can't compare with anyone.
If the other party is really a dragon, there is no comparison at all.
"Senior, it's actually like this..."
Li Zhi briefly told his situation, emphasizing that he came with the little white dragon Ao Lie, and Ao Lie was the third prince of the West Sea Dragon Palace, a pure fire dragon.
"Boom——"
With a muffled sound, a hall appeared out of thin air in front of Li Zhi. The black door and black wall tiles revealed an ancient antiquity.
"Call your companions over -"
It was that voice again, but Li Zhi couldn't hear the other person's emotions.
"Senior, wait a moment, junior, let them come over now."
After saying that, Li Zhi crushed the letter talisman in his hand.
This kind of talisman is very strange. It is made with the same technique. No matter how many there are, once one party crushes it, the other people can receive the message.
At the same time, the specific location of the crushed party will also be passed to it, so that the companion can find it in the shortest time.
Fortunately, Li Zhi and the others were not separated for too long, and they were looking for things under the water, so naturally they could not walk faster.
In a short time, Sun Wukong and Xiao Bailong rushed over one after another.
"Junior brother, you really found it first?——"
This is the exclamation of Xiao Bailong Ao Lie. In his mind, Li Zhi has long been regarded as a "lucky star". If there is one person who can trigger his opportunity here, that person must be Li Zhi.<
/p>
"What an old smell. Is this still the breath of the Three Realms?"
Sun Wukong glanced at the main hall in front of him.
When he was studying art, Sun Wukong was sent to the fragments of the ancient world by his mentor to practice, where he felt like the hall in front of him.
Therefore, Sun Wukong recognized it at a glance. It did not belong to the Three Realms.
"It's a bit interesting. One of them is actually the Lingming Stone Monkey among the four monkeys in the world, and the other is really my dragon clan. He looks like a descendant of Brother Canglong. Unfortunately, his bloodline is a little different, and he is just a four-clawed golden dragon."
Dragons have claws, and the number of claws indicates how powerful the dragon can be.
According to legend, the Ancestral Dragon is a nine-clawed divine dragon, but currently, the most powerful dragon in the world is only a five-clawed golden dragon with the peak level of the Golden Immortal.
"Lingming Stone Monkey? What Lingming Stone Monkey? Who are you?——"
Xiao Bailong didn't speak, but he felt a hint of coercion inexplicably, as if it was imprinted on his blood.
Sun Wukong didn't care so much. He felt that the other party was talking about himself, but he didn't understand what the other party meant.
"Senior Brother, we still have to do business. Regarding the four monkeys in the world, I will tell you in detail another day."
Anyone with extraordinary abilities will have their own unique quirks, not to mention the person in the hall is probably an old monster from a long time ago.
Li Zhi was worried that Sun Wukong's impetuous character might delay Xiao Bailong's opportunity if he said the wrong thing, so he quickly stopped his senior brother.
"I don't have much time, you all come in -"
"Crunch——"
The door of the main hall was opened from the inside. There was no light at all in the dark main hall. Even though a few people could see in the dark, it still felt a bit eerie.
Seeing this, Xiao Bailong hurriedly took out a luminous pearl from his storage bag. Although it was not as big as the one Li Zhi had seen Ao Ling use, it was enough to illuminate the main hall.
"Hmph, do today's juniors just like these flashy things?——"
This was clearly a scolding of Xiao Bailong, but Ao Lie, who had a strong nature, didn't even have the courage to reply.
Because, he finally realized what kind of opportunity he had today - did he meet the legendary ancestor?
Among the Dragon Clan, it is said that the Dragon Clan had an extremely glorious history in ancient times and was once the master of this world.
The tyranny of the ten ancient divine dragons is something that every dragon clan yearns for today but dare not show off.
"Your name is Ao Lie? Just now this kid said that you felt your 'opportunity' here. Let me see, it's true, and it's not true."
"You are just taking advantage of having a dragon body. If it weren't for this kid coming here, you wouldn't be able to sense me."
The hall was empty, with not a single figure in sight, and that deep voice seemed to be pointing directly at people's hearts.
"Young boy Ao Lie, I'm going to pay tribute to the senior dragon clan——"
That voice could ignore Xiao Bailong, but Ao Lie did not dare to neglect it and knelt on the ground respectfully.
"Come on, get up. You are a descendant of the old, so you are not an outsider. Now that you have encountered this set of exercises, it will be easier for you."
Suddenly, a bright light flickered, floated from the center of the hall, and disappeared directly into the eyebrows of Little White Dragon Ao Lie.
"Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Technique?——"
"Boy, I would like to thank my ancestor for the gift. I will practice diligently in the future and live up to my ancestor's high expectations. I am brave enough to ask my ancestor who you are."
After obtaining a powerful skill, Xiao Bailong's last doubt about this voice was dispelled, and he even called out "ancestor" naturally.
"You don't need to know my name. Even if you know it, I'm afraid it won't be of any benefit to you. Just exit first -"
Xiao Bailong smiled helplessly, not daring to say anything, and silently exited the hall.
"Lingming Stone Monkey? You guys really exist. Speaking of which, you and I are of the same origin..."
