Longhu Mountain is surrounded by a dragon and a tiger. It is majestic and steep, with many peaks and mountains. There are dragons leaping and tigers jumping. The dust is shaken off and the purple air rises.
With thousands of years of accumulation and several ups and downs, Longhu Mountain is recognized as the first mountain of Taoism, the birthplace of Taoism, and has a prominent ancestral status.
At this moment, Ye Fan is standing here, looking at each other with Lao He and the Lord of Three Valleys. Longhu Mountain is very mysterious. It is the ancestral land of Taoism and is difficult to provoke.
"No wonder Taoism chose this place. Our demon clan sages have always been puzzled. Now we finally understand that there is an earthly immortal." Lord San Gu said.
Lao He sighed: "That's right. In ancient times, this place was protected by a large formation. The Earthly Immortal Burial Ground was first established, but it could not affect the nearby terrain. Now that the Divine Immortal has been established, it can no longer be contained, and we can get a glimpse of it. Taoism is indeed true
There are experts who have chosen this place so early."
As for the Taoist lineage, it is necessary to mention the pre-Qin Laozhuang, but its origin is even older. To be honest, it can be traced back to ancient times.
Tao has existed since ancient times. It has been elaborated by the Huang-Lao School. There are many classics and profound books. Later generations will honor Huangdi and Laozi as their founders.
Taoism has existed for a long time, but it emerged as a real organization later. The rise of Tianshi Taoism and Longhu Mountain becoming the ancestral court is a landmark event.
Later, after thousands of years of ups and downs, Taoism gave birth to hundreds of sects, which were dependent on each other, grew out of each other, and even opposed each other, and never unified.
From ancient times to the present, it has gone through several ups and downs. Although Taoism has many branches, it can be roughly divided into two major sects. One is the Quanzhen Sect, which mainly cultivates inner elixirs and rises in the north.
The other sect is the Zhengyi Sect, which mainly uses Fu Zhuan script. Its ancestral court is Longhu Mountain, which occupies half of the Taoist sects in the world. At the same time, its source is also the beginning of organized Taoism.
Ye Fan and the others must be careful when they come to this place. This is the ancestral home of Taoism. If they are not careful, they may become enemies of the entire Taoism.
Because Zhengyi Sect has a great influence on Taoism and is the result of the integration of Tianshi Tao, Lingbao Sect and Shangqing Sect.
In ancient times, the Celestial Master Taoist respected Laozi, the Lingbao Sect respected Lingbao Tianzun, and the Shangqing Sect respected the Original Tianzun. The Three Pure Ones respected by Taoism were born from this.
Ye Fan and others entered the mountain and watched all the way. This Taoist ancestral land has ninety-nine mountains and twenty-four rocks. Although ninety-nine mountains do not have the shape of a dragon, they have the power of a dragon and a tiger.
"The essence of heaven and earth has dried up, but this place still has restrained purple energy. It is worthy of being the birthplace of Tao." The Great Valley Master sighed.
However, the scenic spots of the past are no longer visible. At its peak, Longhu Mountain had ten Taoist palaces, eighty-one Taoist temples, and thirty-six Taoist courtyards.
During the Qing Dynasty, Tibetan Buddhism was believed in and Taoism, which was mainly believed by the Han people, was suppressed, leading to the decline of this place.
Then, the Middle Earth encountered a great calamity and was at war for hundreds of years. However, when peace finally came, the Four Old Ages were destroyed again. The Taoist priests were completely gone from Longhu Waishan. The Taoist temples were completely destroyed, leaving only the Tianshi Mansion.
However, Ye Fan and the others did not dare to underestimate them. While the outer mountains of the sect had turned into smoke, the cultivators were still there, entering the ancient inner mountains and breaking away from the ordinary world.
"The Nine Dragons pulled the coffin away, and the Taishan Ancestral Altar appeared. It caused a dramatic battle among those with great supernatural powers. If the old Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain had not been invited, the consequences would have been unforeseen."
From that battle that year, we can see the power of the ancestral court of the Zhengyi sect. There are still experts sitting in charge, which is better than other sects.
"It should be this place. You see, there are hanging coffins among the stone cliffs in the outer mountain. They are all ancient relics from more than two thousand years ago, let alone the inner mountain." Master Sangu said.
Most of the cliff tombs at Longhu Mountain are coffins from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which are unique in China. At that time, Taoism took this as its root and truly flourished. It is said that it is also related to the majesty of the hanging coffins.
Lao He said: "Now that I think about it, Taoism is really cunning. It has long known that the coffin of the Earth Immortal is hanging here. It arrived before anyone else and occupied this place. Even if we go in now, we may not be able to find the Earth Immortal."
For thousands of years, as the ancestral land of Taoism, it is impossible for ordinary people to know the inner mountain, and the demon clan, Western Taoism, etc. have never invaded.
Even if there is a shocking secret here, it is impossible for outsiders to know it. There are people with great magical powers from ancient times who suppress it and personally protect it. It is extremely mysterious.
When Ye Fan returned from outside the Star Territory, it can be said that he encountered a rare opportunity. In the Age of Dharma Ending, with his Taoism, he should be able to come in and out, and it would be difficult to stop the Righteous Sect.
The three people turned left and turned again, almost touching the forbidden formation several times, and finally came to the Taoist sacred land and saw the Dragon and Tiger True Mountain.
"It's more dragon-shaped than the ninety-nine peaks outside. This place is amazing!" the Great Valley Master exclaimed.
The mountain is majestic, as if it is about to leap up into the sky. Dragons and tigers are entangled, entwined and intertwined with each other. In this age of Dharma-ending, there is actually a faint purple air steaming, which is rare in the world.
This place was definitely a first-class sacred place in ancient times. No wonder it became the birthplace of Taoism. It is magnificent and beautiful.
The peaks are majestic, surrounded by purple air, with waterfalls and springs, flying cranes, Taoist boys gathering herbs, and old Taoist priests breathing on the cliffs, which is very artistic.
The buildings are neat and tidy, the beautiful buildings are flying, and the mountains and rivers are covered; the towers and pavilions are high, and the mountains and forests are surrounded. The ancient scenery has finally reappeared.
There were dragons and tigers leaping and leaping here, trying to soar into the sky, but they did not see the Ninety-nine Ancient Xiaolong Mountains, they were all gone.
They were very cautious. Ye Fan led the way and avoided Taoist temples and Ziqi peaks. They walked far into the mountains and forests and did not approach the important place of Zhengyi Sect.
"It's not simple. There is actually a leader-level figure in this place. They are probably very ancient figures." Ye Fan wanted to climb a mountain and visit a Taoist temple.
However, both Lao He and Master San Gu hurriedly stopped him and told him not to show up. He was not allowed to break into this place. If he was discovered, he might be punished with a serious crime.
"No, how come there isn't?!" They searched for hundreds of miles, but they couldn't find the Ninety-nine Ancient Xiaolong Mountain. It was unknown where the Earth Immortal was buried.
The auspicious light gathers on several ancient Taoist temples on Longhu Mountain, and the purple air is thick and steaming upward, which touches people's hearts. Other than that, there is no abnormality in the vast no-man's land.
Lao He and Master Sangu were anxious, they could not stay in this place for long. They knew very well how terrifying and powerful the Zhengyi Sect was, and if they were discovered by the hidden masters with supernatural powers, they would not be able to survive.
Ye Fan calmed down and opened his Yuantian Eyes. His body blended into the wonderful scenery of Longhu Mountain, as if he was about to disappear. Endless earth energy poured into his body, and he saw the clues.
"What an amazing method, it almost deceived my Yuantian Eye."
He looked solemn. No one in the world except him could discover that there are mountains outside the mountains, there is another world outside the heaven and earth, and there is an ancient magic circle outside the ancestral court of Longhu Mountain. It should be the burial place of the earthly immortals, and it is also the foundation for Taoism to choose this place.
reason.
This road is very difficult. It is not a killing formation. It is a formation made by making reasonable use of the mountains and terrain. It is inaccessible. If Ye Fan is not a member of the Yuan Tianshi lineage, he will never be able to enter. Even so, he has spent a lot of money.
He spent a lot of time walking with the two of them for three days before entering.
"The ancient sages were incomprehensible and their methods reached the heavens. When they reached that level, the situation they laid out was comparable to Master Yuan Tian."
As soon as they entered this dense land, Ye Fan and the three of them immediately felt a vast and desolate energy, like a group of dragons rising up.
Just on the horizon, the mountains are vast, lush and green, with dragon energy lingering around them. Many dragons and mountains are dancing, as if they are about to break through the sky!
"We found it. This is the place where the Earthly Immortal is buried!" They were very excited.
Respected as an Earth Immortal, one must have methods that defy the heavens. This person has obtained the ninety-nine ancient Longshan secrets, touched the taboo area, and must have left behind a shocking secret.
"Taoist people must have been to this place. I wonder if there is anything left." Lao He said.
The Taoist sages must have seen something when they chose the site of Longhu Mountain. They regard the place of Dragon and Tiger as their ancestral home and have guarded it for so many years. No one would believe it if they said they had not obtained the secret of the Earthly Immortal.
The mountains are dancing and the terrain is shocking. These are a group of dragons, towering and majestic.
Suddenly, Ye Fan stopped and saw a corpse, dressed in a Taoist robe, which had been in the body for hundreds of years. His body was immortal, sitting cross-legged on a rock, and it looked like he was guarding the mountain gate leading to the Longshan Group.
"The protector of the Zhengyi Sect!" Lao He saw at a glance a picture of flying immortals on his Taoist robe, which is unique to the protectors of the Tao.
Anyone who protects the Tao is extremely powerful, even surpassing the leader, and is an accomplished Taoist who protects the Tao.
There were a few lines of writing on the ground, which were pre-Qin bird seals. Several people looked at them with emotion and left them for the old Taoist priests. The main idea was that there had been no successor to protect the forbidden area for two thousand years. The world was dry, and no one could cut the way into Longhu Mountain.
Yes, it's really sad.
"This is a Tao-killing king who sat here hundreds of years ago and has been protecting the Tao. It's shocking." The Lord of Three Valleys exclaimed.
"So, the secret of the Earth Immortal is still there. They haven't moved, otherwise they wouldn't have sent people to guard it." Lao He was horrified and couldn't help but look at Ye Fan. Only the King of Dao Zhan could come in.
Doesn't this mean that the person in front of me is terrifying to the extreme?
"You don't have to look at me like this. I'm just proficient in some magic circles and haven't killed anyone." Ye Fan smiled.
They walked forward, and when they came to the first dragon mountain, they saw a bone tablet, as white as jade, as tall as a person, and it was still intact after so many years, with oracle bone inscriptions on it.
Ninety-Nine Dragon Mountain!
There were only a few words on it, but there was an overwhelming force of great power. When Laohe and Monkey looked at it from a distance, they coughed up blood on the spot and couldn't face it.
"Earth Immortal, you are worthy of being an Earth Immortal, all the ordinary words are like this." The Great Valley Master sighed.
Ye Fan was silent, but there was a huge wave of fear in his heart. Even the words he looked at were a little uneasy. This was definitely a master!
He muttered to himself: "There is no murderous intention behind, it is just a normal carving, leaving a trace of Dao marks."
As soon as they entered the mountain, the Three Valley Master showed joy and shouted: "I found it, I didn't expect it to be so smooth."
Under the cliff, a large crack opened, with thousands of hanging coffins, densely packed, and filled with dragon energy. It looked like the mouth of Longshan was opening, holding ancient coffins.
Among them, deep in the dragon's mouth, a jade coffin is looming, and the flowing dusty light has been immortal since ancient times.
"In the Earthly Immortal's house, there are thousands of coffins hanging on the cliff."
"The clouds are the burial bones of immortals."
The fragrance came, although it was very light, but it made people feel light, as if they were about to soar into the sky. Ye Fan was shocked, this was definitely the elixir of immortality.
Could it be that there is such a thing that defies the heavens in the hanging coffin of the Earth Immortal? He felt that he had underestimated this place before, and the Earth Immortal was more mysterious and powerful than he imagined.
The fragrance came from the large opening under the stone cliff, located deep in the mouth of the dragon. He opened his third eye and saw that although the luster of the dusty jade coffin was dim, the traces were not bad, and there was a branch with shimmering green light and freshness.
Desire drips, the fragrance hits your nose.
"The Immortal Tree!"
Ye Fan was surprised. This place was amazing. It was just a branch, but there was still a whole immortal tree. He had not seen the true appearance of the Earth Immortal, but he had seen such a thing first.
