Chapter 170: The Secret Compass

The handover ceremony of the head of the palm of the palm was not over for long.

The monks left one after another, and Zhao Mu and the other two returned to the carriage and drove away gradually.

They walked all the way east, and when they reached an unmanned wilderness, the carriage suddenly stopped.

A figure rushed after him from behind, and several ups and downs stood next to the carriage, which was Mu Xinzhi.

He clasped his hands together and bowed respectfully: "Mu Xinzhi, I have seen sir."

"Did you see me just now?" Zhao Mu's voice came from the carriage.

"Yes, it's been twenty years, but I didn't expect the little monk to see him."

"Haha, I am traveling all over the world and just passing by here. I didn't expect that I happened to meet you. You took over as the head of the Palm Sutra. Congratulations, for fulfilling your long-cherished wish since childhood."

"I have to thank you for this. Mr. If Mr. Wu helped the monk open up his meridians back then, the monk is probably still the little monk from the Arhat Temple, and no one cares about it."

Mu Xinzhi paused for a moment and said, "Sir, can you tell the little monk about your identity this time so that you can repay your kindness back then?"

"Who am I? I believe you have already guessed something, so I don't need to say anything. As for repaying kindness..."

Zhao Mu's voice slightly condensed: "One day in the future, I may need your help if I have something to do. If you can take action, it will be considered a repayment."

"Okay, no matter when, as long as you speak, the monk will do his best."

"Haha, then we'll make a decision. I hope you'll be stronger next time you meet."

After Zhao Mu finished speaking, the carriage moved forward again and gradually disappeared at the end of the wilderness.

Mu Xinzhi stood there for a long time before turning around and leaving.

...

Emperor Sude died half a month after Mu Xinzhi took over as the head of the sutra.

When Zhao Mu and the other two traveled all the way to the Great Jin Dynasty, the fourth prince Sima Tongsheng had already ascended the throne and his reign was Tianyou.

This time the power alternation made the entire court seem very stable.

It is also a rare emperor of the Jin Dynasty in recent generations, and there was no power transfer in which fierce battles occurred.

Sometimes Zhao Mu wondered whether the royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty had been cursed in some way.

Just counting from Sima Tongsheng, except for the new Chu emperor who passed the throne to Emperor Mingyuan, there were no generations of emperors who came to the throne, and there was no bloody war.

I don’t know if the ancestors of the royal family did something that was angry and resentful?

Zhao Mu was not very interested in who to be the emperor.

So after returning to the Great Jin Dynasty, he prepared to take his two daughters to the valley where he was reborn and lived in seclusion and practiced for a while.

But at this moment, a piece of news that is difficult to distinguish between true and false suddenly spread all over the world.

Half a month ago, a cultivator of immortals appeared in the world outside the East China Sea.

For the people of the Great Jin Dynasty, immortal cultivators have long become legendary existences.

After all, except for the immortal cultivator who was rumored to have sought medicine for medicine two or three hundred years ago, the practice of immortality has long been extinct in the Great Jin Dynasty for thousands of years.

But this cannot stop people's yearning for the path of immortality.

From powerful ministers and emperors to ordinary people, who doesn’t want to have the ability to live forever and escape from the sky?

So as soon as this news came out, before I could figure out the true or falsehood, it shocked the entire Jin Dynasty.

The common people, sects, powerful and wealthy businessmen, countless people packed their luggage and rushed to the East China Sea.

Another half month passed, and new news spread in the East China Sea - traces of immortal paths appeared again.

It is said that early that morning, a huge gray fish suddenly appeared on the sea surface of the East China Sea.

The big fish is less than three hundred feet long and looks like a small island.

And on the big fish, there was a mysterious Taoist temple on its back. The sound of chanting scriptures was constantly heard from the Taoist temple, and even if it was standing on the coast, it could be vaguely heard.

The rumors this time are concise and make people believe its authenticity even more.

So in the next few days, more people rushed to the East China Sea.

Even the new emperor Sima Tongsheng in the palace, and Mu Xinzhi, who was far away in the Great Jinlun Kingdom, took people to the East China Sea in person.

Zhao Mu, who yearns for the immortal path, naturally would not let go of such rumors.

So he was about to go to the valley to live in seclusion, so he took the two girls to change the route and also headed to the East China Sea.

East China Sea, Shuiyun City.

This is a secluded and peaceful coastal town, and it is also the first place where rumors of immortal cultivators spread.

It is said that when the big gray fish were swimming on the sea that day, many people in Shuiyun City saw it.

They also swear that the sound of chanting from the Taoist temple behind the big fish contained mysterious power.

The people who heard scriptures by the beach that day seemed to have been baptized by some mysterious power.

People with illness recovered from health the next day;

No one is sick, and since that day, he feels refreshed every day, and he feels like he is twenty years younger out of thin air.

These words from witnesses are becoming more and more certain that immortal cultivators have indeed appeared here.

So every day, countless people sailed to sea, hoping to find traces of immortal cultivators as soon as possible and to worship them in the Immortal Sect.

Since then, he has become an immortal and has lived for thousands of years.

But more than twenty days have passed, and people have searched all the islands near Shuiyun City.

Some people even rely on their strong true energy to sneak into the seabed dozens or hundreds of feet deep, but no one found it. The big gray fish carrying the Taoist temple in the rumor.

After a few days, many people are wondering whether the cultivator has left?

The government office of Shuiyun City has been temporarily requisitioned as the emperor's camp.

At this time, Sima Tongsheng was sitting there in the hall of the government office, listening to Li Weiyong's reply.

"Your Majesty, our people have searched all the waters near Shuiyun City, but they have not even found any suspicious traces. Do you think that the cultivator has really left?"

Li Weiyong asked with a frown.

"Continue looking for it, I hope he hasn't left yet, otherwise I may never see the traces of immortals again in this life."

Sima Tongsheng sighed.

The lifespan of a mortal is only a few decades. Even as a master of the Grandmaster realm, he can only live at most 120 or 30 years old without any accidents.

Such a lifespan seems to be quite short, but in front of the cultivators who often live thousands or tens of thousands of years, it is not even enough.

People in the Great Jin Dynasty only saw such a trace of immortal cultivator for hundreds or thousands of years.

Sima Tongsheng really had no confidence that he could live until the next time the fairy tale appeared.

So he only hopes that the cultivator this time has not left, so that he can worship the other party as his master, and from then on, he will break away from martial arts and enter the practice of the supreme immortal path.

"By the way, have any suspicious characters appeared near Shuiyun City recently?"

Sima Tongsheng asked.

Li Weiyong shook his head: "The suspicious person did not notice it, but Zhou Yue, Yuwen Piaoxu, and Zhao Jinyan seemed to have also come to Shuiyun City. Our people saw them yesterday."

"Zhao Jinyan? That apprentice of the poison doctor?"

Sima Tongsheng looked shocked: "Tell me the order to find the three of them as soon as possible, and say that I have something to ask for advice and let them come here to meet."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Weiyong immediately went out to pass the order.

Sima Tongsheng was a little excited. In his opinion, if anyone is most likely to find the trace of an immortal cultivator, it is probably the number one master in the world, the poison doctor.

So he hopes to confirm from Zhao Mu whether the poison doctor has come to Shuiyun City?
