After talking to Zhou Yu, Liu Qingqing raised her head and looked out the window in the direction of Tianqiong Mountain. The window of the restaurant where they were sitting was facing Tianqiong Mountain. From the window, they could see a large area of Tianqiong Mountain.
In fact, when Liu Qingqing discovered this in the early days of the recovery of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, she had the idea of coming to Tianqiong Mountain, but later she suppressed this idea because she realized that her inheritance was about to be cut off and the Taoist door was incomplete.
The disciples of the sect can all step into cultivation through the incomplete skills inherited from the master. So as the Zhenjun Taoism, the largest sect in the past, how can there be no capable people in Maoshan.
Even before the resurgence of spiritual energy, the law of heaven and earth ended and the years changed many times, the practice has declined to a great extent. Coupled with the government's repeated interference in various religions, the entire Taoist sect has declined to a great extent.
But after all, he is the former leader of the Taoist sect. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and his background is definitely not comparable to that of a small sect. It is definitely a risky move to head to Tianqiong Mountain alone.
So even though she had wanted to come to Tianqiong Mountain for a long time, she was always suppressed by Liu Qingqing until she met Zhou Yu. Although Zhou Yu's specific strength Liu Qingqing could not determine, because she was just a sect whose inheritance was about to be cut off.
The disciples of the small sect and the elders of the sect have long since disappeared. Naturally, they cannot get much guidance on practice. They also have very little knowledge about practice. Many of them can only understand a few things from ancient books.
However, judging from the strength that Zhou Yu showed to her before, Liu Qingqing can be sure that Zhou Yu's strength has definitely reached the realm of metamorphosis in the records of cultivation. The essence of life transcends mortals, which is the realm of real people in Taoist records. This
It is a big hurdle for spiritual practice.
Although Liu Qingqing himself only knows a little about the realm of real people through some classics passed down by his masters, and does not know much about the specific realm divisions, Liu Qingqing has records of the history of practice and the situation of the end of heaven and earth that have been handed down through his masters.
But I understand.
Even in the era when Zhenjun was alive, Zhenjun's realm was at the top of the cultivation world. Every Zhenjun was enough to dominate a major sect. Even at that time, Zhenjun became the largest sect in Taoism and the strongest leader.
In the large Maoshan sect, apart from Zhenjun, there are only two real people in the entire sect at the same time.
In the years after the True Lord became a Taoist, the end of the law in the world became more and more serious. After a thousand years, there was no real true person in the entire Taoist sect, and it was completely reduced to a legend.
Liu Qingqing has been studying the past history since the revival of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. She can be sure that before the spiritual energy of heaven and earth revived, there was probably no real-life monk in the whole world, and even the monks with real cultivation were rare.
Even if Maoshan is the largest sect in Taoism, it will never be able to reverse this situation.
Because this is the general trend of the entire world and the restrictions of the rules of heaven and earth, absolutely no one can violate it.
And now the recovery of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has just begun. Although Liu Qingqing cannot be sure when the recovery of spiritual energy of heaven and earth started, she can be sure that this time point will definitely not exceed three years.
Three years have passed, and it is the early stage of the recovery of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Even if the cultivation era comes again, it is absolutely impossible for anyone to improve so much in such a short period of time.
Unless you are someone like Zhou Yu who is lucky enough to obtain the spiritual fruit of heaven and earth and directly ascend to heaven in one step, otherwise, under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible for other normal monks to cultivate to the legendary realm of real people. Even if they can, the basic realm of real people is the highest level.
Oh my god.
Therefore, Liu Qingqing is very confident about going to Tianqiong Mountain this time. Although her own strength is still far from the realm of a real person, Zhou Yu is already a real person, and Zhou Yu is her greatest confidence.
Now the recovery of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has just begun. Even if Maoshan is the former leader of the Taoist sect, it is absolutely difficult to have a real person appear in such a short period of time. As long as there is no real person in the Maoshan sect on Tianqiong Mountain, then they have a chance to win in this business.
, even if the worst-case scenario is that Maoshan has already produced a real person, then they may not be defeated.
And now the spiritual energy recovery of the world has just begun. It can be said that no matter what your background is, whether you are from a big sect or a small sect, at this moment, you are basically on the same starting line. As long as you seize it from this moment, then
It is completely possible to do it one step at a time.
From the moment she knew that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had revived, Liu Qingqing completely realized that this was an unprecedented change in the world and an unprecedented huge opportunity. As long as she grasped it, she would definitely be able to rise to the top and even achieve a legend.
So this time, Liu Qingqing is bound to win Tianqiong Mountain.
It was already sunset, and soon night fell.
Liu Qingqing and Zhou Yu rested for the night in the county town. The next morning, before the sun came out, they set off to the mountain early.
However, even though it was early, as a famous domestic mountain, river and tourist attraction, there was already an endless stream of tourists, including many tourists who climbed up the mountain on foot like the two of them.
Liu Qingqing and Zhou Yu also dressed up as foreign tourists. In the eyes of others, they looked like a young couple who came to travel. The man was handsome and the woman was pretty. In addition, they were both cultivators and had an outstanding temperament.
It attracted the attention of many tourists along the way, but no one thought much about it.
It is only the early stage of the recovery of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Generally speaking, there have not been any large-scale strange phenomena. In addition, the government departments will also suppress all unstable factors and news to a certain extent for the sake of social stability. Therefore, for ordinary people at present,
, everything is still business as usual, and only a handful of people have truly realized that the world has changed.
The two of them walked up the road.
"Where to go first?"
Zhou Yu asked Liu Qingqing that there were many Taoist temples and palaces on Tianqiong Mountain. If they wanted to go up to find people from the Maoshan Sect, they would naturally need to look for them.
"Go directly to the Zhenjun Palace. The Maoshan Sect flourished with Zhenjun. It was because of Zhenjun that he established his position as the leader of the Taoist sect. He also respects Zhenjun the most. Zhenjun Palace is also the main hall of Tianqiong Mountain. It should be the easiest place to find people from Maoshan.
of."
Liu Qingqing said without thinking, Zhou Yu saw that Liu Qingqing had a plan, and immediately nodded and went directly to the True Sovereign Palace on the top of the mountain.
The Palace of the True Lord is also the largest palace attraction on Tianqiong Mountain and the most important place for tourists to check in, especially those who come to burn incense.
When Liu Qingqing and Zhou Yu arrived at the Zhenjun Palace, the place was already crowded with people. They followed the crowd into it and soon found the Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes inside. However, this sight was shocking.
The two of them were greatly disappointed because the other party had no aura of cultivation at all.
Then Liu Qingqing tried to use some Taoist etiquette to say hello, but found that the other party didn't understand it at all.
This is a fake Taoist priest!
Liu Qingqing was instantly sure that if she was really a member of the Taoist sect, even if she didn't know how to practice, she would definitely understand the most basic Taoist sign language etiquette, but the other person had no idea about it at all, and Liu Qingqing had been observing the changes in the other person's expression, and she was completely
It's not disguise.
Afterwards, the two of them visited other Taoist temples and palaces on Maoshan Mountain to find other Taoist priests, but they found that——
They are all fake Taoist priests!
No one has cultivation,
No one understands the etiquette of the Taoist sect, and they are obviously not members of the Taoist sect.
"Could it be that the government's planning and management of these scenic Taoist temples over the years has caused all the real people from the Maoshan sect to leave?"
Zhou Yu couldn't help but think to himself, after getting to know Liu Qingqing, he also knew a little about the situation of the Taoist sect. In recent years, the country has vigorously rectified and planned tourist attractions in various places, especially famous mountain holy places like Tianqiong Mountain.
Liu Qingqing's eyes narrowed when she heard this. She knew better than Zhou Yu in this regard. The national government had actually targeted certain sects over the years.
In fact, it is the same not only with Taoism, but also with other sects such as Buddhism.
In fact, Liu Qingqing knew that this was also an age-old problem. The top level of the national government could not be unclear about spiritual matters, and as a government, as long as it is a powerful government, it is basically impossible to tolerate the existence of some uncontrolled powerful forces.
Therefore, it is completely impossible to say that the country has completely left things alone regarding Taoism.
For a long time, the national government has never stopped intervening in Taoist sects, especially the supervision of Taoist altars in various places.
In fact, the so-called Taoist monks in temples and Taoist temples in many places are actually fake Taoist priests and fake monks, while there are fewer and fewer real Taoist and Buddhist people. Liu Qingqing did not expect that even Tianqiong
The mountain, which was once the most holy place of Taoism, seems to have become like this, replaced by a group of fake Taoist priests.
Liu Qingqing's eyes couldn't help but change for a moment, then she shook her head and said.
"No, there should be disciples of Maoshan here. This is the ancestral mountain of the Maoshan sect and the place where the true king attains enlightenment. It has irreplaceable symbolic significance for the Maoshan sect. As long as Maoshan remains, there will definitely be Maoshan disciples guarding it.
it's here."
"Let's search again. Since these apparently crowded Taoist palaces are all fake Taoist priests, let's search for places that no one seems to go to."
Zhou Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately understood Liu Qingqing's point.
And I have to say that what Liu Qingqing said is very possible.
