Amidst the laughter of the master and disciple Taoist priests, the face of the Wuzhao Taoist priest suddenly became extremely ugly. Xu Dao's heart moved, and he guessed that the treatment of the Jindan Taoist priest should be extremely beneficial to him.
Sure enough, without him asking any questions, the elderly Taoist priest took the initiative to say to Xu Dao:
"Fellow Taoist, you are lucky. Taoist Master Yulong only made you punish yourself with three cups of wine, and did not prohibit you from entering the Taoist palace. It's not a big deal, so don't worry."
Another Taoist priest from the master-disciple line also bowed his hand to Xu Dao, with a smile on his face, as if congratulating him. After Xu Dao asked carefully, he finally understood the meaning of the order.
According to what the other party said, although he injured Taoist Lei Zhao and ruined his path, Taoist Jindan only canceled his qualification to practice here for a hundred days and transferred this qualification to Taoist Lei Zhao, allowing him to
The other party is just healing.
If this treatment is considered harsh for ordinary Taoist disciples, it is because the place where everyone is located is close to the Erhai Fairy Garden, which is the place where spiritual veins from all directions gather. Leaving this place with rich spiritual energy, the Taoist disciples spent a hundred days building
The basic one will undoubtedly be much smaller.
But it was different for Xu Dao. He had already completed a hundred days of foundation building in the Immortal Garden, and his Taoist skills had directly reached the number of sixty years. What he needed next was to hone his existing Qi, rather than increase it.
The lack of the opportunity to spend a hundred days in seclusion here was a loss for Xu Dao, but it was not a strain at all.
The elderly Taoist priest said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. It's a good thing that you don't have to endure a hundred days of suffering. Once these newcomers are arranged, I will take you out to play."
When Xu Dao heard the other party's words, a stone fell from his heart.
He thought that he should be able to successfully enter the Erhai Taoist Palace, and he had also established a relationship with the master and apprentice lineage, which was undoubtedly a good thing.
But he glanced at the seriously injured Lei Zhao Taoist priest and said in his heart: "This guy is better off, but even if this guy heals his wounds in this spiritually rich place for a hundred days, he will never be able to completely recover from his injuries."
This is the place where spiritual veins from all directions gather. Taoist priests can use it for free for 100 days to build the foundation when they first enter the Taoist palace. Normally, if they want to come here to retreat for a day, they have to spend a lot of Taoist power, or have to establish a foundation.
Only when you make great contributions will you be rewarded.
Taoist Lei Zhao was given the opportunity to teach and was able to stay here for a hundred days to heal his wounds. It was undoubtedly a blessing for him, but no matter how lucky he was, it was not as good as this person's loss.
Moreover, Xu Dao squinted at the other party and snorted coldly in his heart:
"Just a hundred days will allow me to make preparations outside. When this guy is about to leave seclusion, his death will be approaching."
They were talking and laughing freely, while the Wuzhao Taoist priests had gloomy expressions on their faces. They seemed to be dissatisfied with the treatment of the Jindan Taoist priests, but they did not dare to say anything. They only dared to communicate with each other with their spiritual consciousness, and one by one they
He looked at Xu Dao and the others with cold eyes and snorts.
The elderly Taoist priest came back to his senses. He looked at the group of Taoist priests with gloomy faces. He first led Xu Dao and the two of them to bow to the golden scroll, and shouted in unison: "I will obey the Taoist master's decree."
Then he looked at Wu Zhao with a smile and said, "Why, you guys haven't thanked the edict quickly, but you are dissatisfied with Taoist Yulong's treatment?"
Hearing this, the faces of the Wuzhao Taoist priests suddenly changed. They shook their heads one by one, saying "Don't dare, don't dare", and quickly bowed their hands toward the golden scroll, "I will obey the Taoist Master's decree!"
The chuckles suddenly started again. The elder Taoist priest stopped looking at each other, turned around and called Xu Dao and the others to go aside, arranging for the Taoist disciples who had just left the fairy garden to go into seclusion.
Following the guidance of the elderly Taoist priest, one after another simple and crude stone houses appeared in Xu Dao's eyes. They were a place for retreat. The stone houses had openings and closings. The total number was about thirty or forty, which was not too much, but the details inside each
The aura is so rich that it is not much comparable to the golden pillars in the Erhai Fairy Garden.
Several Taoist disciples who came out with Xu Dao walked into the stone house under the arrangement of the older Taoist priest. After some explanations, they successively entered the state of building the foundation for a hundred days.
Seeing this, Xu Dao still felt a little bit of envy in his heart.
Thinking about the conditions when he was building the foundation for a hundred days, the conditions were difficult and he couldn't even eat enough. It was only after he entered Jiangzhou City that he barely got enough spiritual food.
The Taoist disciples in front of them can not only obtain spiritual roots from the fairy garden, but also don't have to worry about the consumption of spiritual energy during the process of planting spiritual roots. They only need to focus on polishing their true energy and solidifying their foundation.
Xu Dao couldn't help but sigh: "This is the difference between casual cultivators from the side sect and disciples from the Taoist sect."
Until the line of masters and disciples had arranged the new recruits under their command, the Wuzhao Taoist priests did not make any new plans. They only surrounded the Leizhao Taoist priests to help him heal and suppress his injuries.
This also made the newcomers on the Wuzhao side have no choice but to stand and wait, unable to rush to retreat to practice.
As for Taoist Lei Zhao, his face was still ashen, but his aura was more stable than before, and it didn't look like he was going to explode and die in the next moment.
But when he was about to leave, Xu Dao raised his eyebrows, bowed to this person suddenly, and called:
"Fellow Taoist Lei is in seclusion here. When he comes out of seclusion, Taoist Ping will definitely put on a nice banquet and apologize."
Taoist priest Lei Zhao still looked dull, his breath was withered and dying, and he seemed to be unable to care about the outside world at all.
But Xu Dao paused and added with a sigh: "After all, the poor Taoist and the noble disciple Lei Liangxiao are close friends of life and death, friends in times of need. You are my father-in-law, so don't die young like Brother Lei."
"
After saying this, the other Taoist priests all looked at him sideways, with strange expressions.
Xu Dao looked at Taoist Lei Zhao and found that he had no reaction at all, so he turned around regretfully and prepared to leave with his master and disciple.
But not long after he turned around, the black energy on Taoist Lei Zhao's face began to waver again.
Not only that, this man opened his eyes suddenly, opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood arrows. His face suddenly turned gray and his injuries became more serious.
The Taoist priest stared at Xu Dao's back with hatred in his eyes, as if even the water from the Erhai Lake could not extinguish it. The Wuzhao Taoist priest next to him quickly exclaimed: "Brother Lei, please suppress the true energy quickly."
"Kill you, kill you! A certain family has vowed to kill you." Lei Zhao Taoist priest's eyes were red and he was yelling in his heart.
It turned out that after hearing Xu Dao's words, this person immediately recognized Xu Dao as the Taoist disciple who had entered Lei Mansion before. Based on various associations and the meaning of Xu Dao's words, he realized that Lei Liangxiao's death must be related to Xu Dao's.
He couldn't get rid of the relationship, so he became angry and his injuries worsened.
Xu Dao was a little stunned when he saw the other party's reaction.
He just wanted to use words to influence the other person's state of mind and disrupt his true energy. Unexpectedly, with just one sentence, he actually made the other person vomit blood, as if he had killed his only son.
This made Xu Dao mutter to himself: "Could it be that Lei Liangxiao is really his biological son?"
But he didn't have time to think so much. Most of the people were still under the gaze of Jindan Taoist. Although Xu Dao didn't take action directly, he still tricked the other party and ran away as soon as he saw good things.
Alchemist.
So under the secret laughter of the master and apprentice Taoist priests, Xu Dao quickly followed the two of them, passed through the layers of formations, entered the blue water layer, and slowly left the spiritual land.
………………
After completely leaving the Erhai Fairy Garden, Xu Dao found himself standing on a blue sea. The sea was filled with mist, making it difficult to see very far. However, in his induction, several strands of spiritual consciousness immediately glanced at a few people.
Come here, the surroundings are not empty.
One of the master-disciple lineage called him: "Fellow Daoist Xu, go this way." The mana on the three of them surged, and they immediately rushed towards the thick fog.
After some introduction by the other party, Xu Daofang learned that the place where these people were haunting was the very center of Erhai Lake. Under it was not only the place where the spiritual veins from all directions converged, but also the anchor point of the Fairy Garden, which was the centerpiece of the Erhai Dao Palace.
It is so important that there are countless formations and restrictions arranged around it, and Taoist priests are stationed at all times.
As for the location of the mountain gate of the Erhai Taoist Palace, when Xu Dao followed the two of them and flew for several miles, a stretch of buildings appeared in his eyes. They were towering and tall, with carved beams and painted beams, sparkling lights, and countless banners. They were ships dozens of feet tall.
The treasure ships were connected end to end with thick iron cables, forming a sea dock.
Xu Dao could tell at a glance that these treasure ships were all almost magical artifacts, and their spiritual pressure was much stronger than any ordinary magical artifact that could be held in his hand.
According to the elder Taoist priest, the number of these treasure ships is no less than a hundred, and they are connected like long snakes to form a circle, protecting the anchor point of the fairy garden in the middle.
Moreover, each treasure ship is equipped with weapons and formations, so that it can raise a large formation at any time to expel foreign enemies and suppress all directions.
Not only that, the Hundred Boat Water Dock also raised spiritual animals, planted elixirs, opened a market, and housed servants and Taoist disciples of all sizes. The combined function was the mountain gate of the entire Erhai Taoist Palace.
Xu Dao couldn't help but be speechless when he saw such a mountain gate.
He originally thought that the mountain gate of the Erhai Dao Palace would be on an island, on the mountain or under the water, a fixed residence built on the soil. What he didn't expect was that it was actually a dock made up of treasure ships.
Xu Dao muttered in his heart: "Such a mountain gate does not look like a place for preaching and teaching, but more like a place for marching and fighting."
In addition to being able to circle the anchor points of the Fairy Garden, this shipyard can certainly also set sail, cruise around, and suppress disobedience. However, not only are there no monsters in the Erhai Lake, there are even very few living creatures. I don't know.
What can be suppressed?
As a new arrival, he knew too little about the inside story, so Xu Dao could only make guesses, and followed the two Taoist priests of the master-disciple lineage to board a treasure ship.
Along the way, the three of them exchanged names again. Xu Dao learned that the older Taoist priest was called "Zhuang Bufan" and the younger one was called "Chen Men".
Both of these two people are a hundred years old, but they have already achieved the power of condensation. It is a great opportunity to make bold progress in their Taoism.
However, according to what the two of them revealed, the spiritual roots that the Taoist surnamed Zhuang picked when he was building the foundation were not high-quality spiritual roots, and there was no possibility of forming elixirs. His cultivation would probably only be completed after he had completed the astral refining in the later stages of the foundation building.
However, among the hundreds of Taoist priests in the Erhai Taoist Palace, not even one of them could form an elixir. The other Taoist priests chatted and laughed with Xu Dao without showing much concern on their faces.
When the two of them learned that Xu Dao was actually only in his twenties, their faces were even more surprised. They praised Dao for his extraordinary talent and his attitude became much warmer.
After general communication, although I don't know how the two of them are actually, at least they are friendly and have helped Xu Dao, which immediately made Xu Dao feel at ease and have a sense of familiarity with this strange Erhai Dao Palace.
In the following days, Xu Dao was arranged to live in the dock. Because the new Taoist priests at the same time were still in seclusion, and he didn't know how many of them would come out alive, his official entry into the Taoist palace was postponed.
Afterwards, wait for the ceremony to be held with other newly promoted Taoist priests.
And I don’t know whether it’s because there are too few Taoist priests stationed at the dock, or because the master-disciple lineage has had negotiations with the Wuzhao tribe. During this time, except for the two Taoist priests Zhuang and Chen, no other Taoist priests have come to look for him.
.
Fortunately, after a few days, Xu Dao discovered that this hundred-ship water dock really looked like a city, with everything from teahouses and restaurants to it. Many of the mortals among them had lived on the water dock all their lives and had never gone ashore.
In addition, the boundary is the mountain gate of the Taoist Palace, which is much more upscale and mysterious than the ghost market in Wudu City. He does not feel depressed at all, but opens his eyes.
During this period, he also sent someone to deliver a letter to Wudu City, telling the Su Jiu people who stayed in the city not to worry too much.
After the novelty wore off and the two Taoist priests Zhuang and Chen were busy with their own affairs and no longer came to see him often, Xu Dao began to live in seclusion and meditate in his temporary residence.
Because he had gained a lot in the Immortal Garden and his Taoism had increased sharply, it was the time when he needed to digest it properly, so he didn't pay too much attention to it as if he had been forgotten by the Tao Palace.
Time passed, and more than a month passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Xu Dao was in seclusion, polishing his magic power conscientiously in order to eliminate the anger as soon as possible. However, a letter suddenly came and made him come out of seclusion.
There are two pieces of letter paper, one of which is a letter from the Taoist Palace. Although the Taoist Palace still has not officially included it on the door wall, it has also recognized his identity as half a Taoist palace member.
He was also allowed to enjoy an island with spiritual energy in advance for the purpose of practicing in the cave, which meant that he could finally leave the water dock and no longer have to live in a hotel.
The second one is a letter from a Taoist named Zhuang.
It turns out that after more than a month, the Taoist palace was actually investigating his origins. Now they have some clues, and with the efforts of the master and disciples, he has been released from house arrest.
It's just that the Wuzhao tribe has not given up and still wants to manipulate Xu Dao's identity, so the Taoist palace will only allow him to open a cave for the time being. As for the benefits of martial arts, salary, etc., it will have to wait for other new Taoist disciples.
Let’s talk about it after leaving customs.
Such a result has already made Xu Dao very satisfied.
A few days after receiving the letter, he checked the authenticity and safety, and couldn't wait to leave the Baichuan Water Dock and go to open the cave on his own.
This is not only because Xu Dao is tired of staying in the Baichuan Water Dock, but also because in the water dock, apart from polishing his Qi, he does not dare to do much. He is alert day and night to avoid
The walls have ears, or someone is plotting against him.
Now I can finally open a cave by myself, where I can not only practice with peace of mind, but also ponder one thing.
The thing is that one-third of the hundred days have passed, and there are still two months left before Taoist Lei Zhao leaves seclusion. Xu Dao must increase his strength as soon as possible to make it easier to kill the opponent.
He had already considered the specific method, which was to refine Tao weapons!
