In the small world of bronze lamps, there are still day and night changes as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, but it is not very obvious.
Zhang Wenfeng completed today's tempering and meditated to restore his cultivation. He stood up and carved a mark on a piece of wood. The blackness on his face and body disappeared as he thought. He walked out of the empty and lifeless bronze hall and whispered to himself: "I don't know if Senior Sister broke through."
How is the situation?"
"She left the customs yesterday and failed to break through."
Mo Ye walked out of the darkness, his whole person seemed to have a cold and ghostly air.
"Failed……"
Zhang Wenfeng had already expected it, but he was still stunned for a while and shook his head slightly, "I know it is not a blessing, maybe it is a good thing..."
Mo Ye tilted his head and looked at the Taoist priest who was pacing in front of him and whispering to himself, and said, "You are not worried that she will suffer this blow and will never recover and miss the path. Your attitude is very strange."
"Senior sister has a tenacious temperament. The more she tempers, the more her fighting spirit will be stimulated. Crossing this threshold will be beneficial to her future practice. Master Xuanmu said in 'Inheritance Anecdotes': Flaws in practice may be caused in the early stages of practice.
Only the tip of a needle is bigger and insignificant. If you just muddle along, it will become a roadblock that is difficult to shake in the later stages of your practice."
Zhang Wenfeng smiled.
I have read the classics before, thought about them at different stages of practice, and gained different insights.
Reviewing the past and learning the new is a principle proven by the ancients.
Of course Mo Ye knew these simple principles in practice, but she was a little surprised by the Taoist priest's "understanding" at this stage.
Seeing the knowledge in books does not mean that you can understand it. Once you understand it, you often don’t know how to use it.
She got into some conversation and said: "In practice, some people leave flaws in their character to their own devices and let them go. Small flaws will turn into big bottlenecks, and then they can be eliminated with all their strength to achieve the goal of breaking through."
Zhang Wenfeng stood still, thinking about it and shook his head with a smile: "Everyone has his own method. This method is too bold and risky. It is not suitable for my temperament of calmness and stability, and it is not suitable for senior sister."
It sounds very suitable for He Guangjun's single-minded sword cultivator.
He wrote it down as a folk remedy for the time being.
"I see that you are quite courageous. Whether it is meeting other third-level monks or meeting me for the first time, underneath the respectful surface, you actually have no fear in your bones. You even have a... temperament of being on an equal footing."
Mo Ye smiled and said that she chose the word "temperament" to describe it.
In the past, when countless masters in the world saw her, they all felt awe, admiration and fear from the bottom of their hearts.
Who dares to call her name to her face?
This Taoist priest is the only one who can say "Mo Ye" smoothly and without any knots.
It's a pity that she didn't tell her her real name, otherwise the "giant eye" in the sky would have known about it.
Zhang Wenfeng chuckled dryly. It would be embarrassing to expose someone in front of someone rather than slap him in the face. He joked: "Mo Ye, if you don't use the 'mind-finding technique', we can have a good chat."
If we keep chatting like this, we will die talking to each other.
Mo Ye said seriously: "I don't use mind-detection or other spells. I don't like to spy on others. All I see at a glance are the filthy desires, obsessions, and evil thoughts. Few of them can catch my eye. I'm here
It hurts your eyes to mess around in the lower world."
Zhang Wenfeng understood that Mo Ye was too highly cultivated and could see through everything at a glance.
He didn't know that it was related to the magical power that Mo Ye cultivated.
"Since you are hanging around in the lower realm and have your senses closed to a few percent, you don't have to look for trouble on your own."
"No, it's better to isolate yourself than to go back to the underworld, or go to the upper world. I can't easily see through the cultivation level above the fourth level, it's not that easy at first glance."
Mo Ye answered casually and brought the topic back: "The first time I met you, I felt that you were a little strange. Luck is part of it, but mainly the inner 'temperament'. You don't seem to care about the authority of high-ranking people."
She couldn't find the right words to describe it.
Zhang Wenfeng said in surprise: "No way, Mo Ye, you must have made a mistake. I am a well-behaved and cautious person. From the beginning to the end, I respect the authority of the superior..."
Mo Ye just watched with a smile and said nothing, allowing Zhang Guanzhu to exaggerate.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell the truth, don't look at me like this."
Zhang Wenfeng didn't retreat. He couldn't stand Mo Ye's eyes that could see through people's hearts and said: "You know I am a soul from another world. In our world and country, what is preached is that everyone is equal.
Although it is impossible to distinguish between high and low in real life, in this world, my decades-long habits may appear abnormal without me even realizing it... It seems that I will have to pay more attention to my words and deeds in the future."
Mo Ye walked a few steps thoughtfully and said with a smile, "Tell me about your world."
"Can you tell me? There's nothing taboo about it, right?"
"You can talk about it in this small world. It's best not to mention it when you go out. There are ears in the sky."
"Understood."
It was rare for Zhang Wenfeng to take the opportunity to reflect on "that world". He was always worried about attracting obsessions, so he could only suppress himself by chanting sutras and stop thinking about it, so he started talking about what he saw, heard, and thought starting from his student days.
Talk about whatever comes to mind.
He also told it to himself, to fulfill his wish and timidly get rid of the little mental obstacles hidden in his heart, so as not to become a roadblock on the road to spiritual practice in the future.
This lecture lasted for more than an hour, and Mo Ye just listened quietly.
The girl with the hairpin is not a qualified audience, so she doesn't know that listening to a story requires praise. Fortunately, Guanzhu Zhang doesn't need any praise at all. He just needs an opportunity to speak out and speak freely to relieve himself.
Mo Ye smiled and said, "We'll talk about it tomorrow, but we'll stop here today."
She wanted to hear more and think more. It was not appropriate to finish talking in one day. She looked up and said, "There are quite a few guests here."
As he waved his hand, a smooth water mirror formed by the condensation of black mist appeared in the sky.
The scene in the Yijian Canyon was shown in the mirror. Zhang Wenfeng saw two familiar figures among them, Protector Xie Moling from Zhoucheng and Gao Yi from Weiyun Temple. The other four people he did not recognize were surrounded by a skinny old man wearing a black Taoist robe.
.
The old man seemed to have noticed the spy, and turned his eyes to look at Zhang Wenfeng in the water mirror.
Zhang Wenfeng was startled. The old man gave him a very powerful feeling.
"The fourth-level golden elixir realm Taoist cultivator is a guardian who stayed over five hundred years ago. He has about ten years left to live, and is about to run out of gas. He has a magic weapon in his hand, which is not bad."
Mo Ye turned the water mirror casually, deflecting the angle so that the old man could not find the direction with the help of the magic weapon, and explained in his mouth.
After hearing Guanzhu Zhang's story, her attitude towards Guanzhu Zhang changed.
This was the first time that Zhang Wenfeng heard that there were "Guardians" of the Golden Core Realm in the Da'an Dynasty. He thought that all the monks who had not reached the fifth realm had moved overseas to the "Duxian Island". He knew some unknown things from the bronze fish pattern talisman.
Top secret information is known to everyone.
"Mo Ye, didn't you clean up all the traces?"
"No need. In two days, the yin energy of this bronze lamp will leak out and attract the attention of the outside world."
"How could this happen... is it because I have not completed the entire process of succession as a judge and refuse to accept the ghost energy filling my body?"
Zhang Wenfeng suddenly asked in surprise.
Isn't this forcing someone to do something difficult? He has already completed his task, so why do you want to plot against him if he doesn't want to be the judge?
"It's been so long that I can't use my magical powers to 'see' it. I only know that you, the destined person, must deal with this trouble. You can't let this important weapon of the world fall into the hands of others, not even the Daolu Academy."
Mo Ye reminded me clearly.
Bronze lamps and heavy weapons play a huge role in changing the situation in the lower realm in the early stages of the rise of spiritual energy.
It is not too difficult to seize the opportunity and destroy a neighboring country.
The changes in the lower world are an unreasonable disaster for the old guys in the upper world. They are all talented people who have gone through many hardships. They calculated that one of the younger generations to accept their arrangements is better than the risk of all of them being dragged down.
"Mo Ye, what can you do? Apart from taking over as the judge of the Soul-Suppressing Hall, everything else is easy."
"The method is very simple. When refining this bronze lamp, it is mainly against the guests. If you are not the judge of the soul-suppressing hall inside the bronze lamp, you will not be able to do as you like."
Mo Ye smiled, his eyes a little narrow.
She learned a lot of benefits from Guanzhu Zhang and gained some "light". Of course, she had to return it before leaving.
She can do whatever comes easily to make things even better.
Without dozens or hundreds of years of hard work, Guanzhu Zhang would not be able to refine this important weapon until he reaches the fourth level, not even with her help. Needless to say these words for the time being.
Moreover, this bronze lamp involves a lot of things, and she wants to make those who come and go suffer a heavy loss.
Those people who wanted to do this didn't expect her to have a hand in it, right?
I still want to take back the bronze lamp I gave away. How can I take advantage of it and still be good at it?
Zhang Wenfeng was stunned and speechless.
Such great courage, this is the difference in vision and knowledge of a top master!
He has never considered refining a small world as his own. He is a down-to-earth person who is not too ambitious or too whimsical.
"There is not enough time at the moment. It is imperative that you refine the ghost energy in your body according to your own plan so that you can get out."
Mo Ye's gentle words brought Guanzhu Zhang back from the clouds.
