Chapter 308: Two Sects’ Methods
"Allow me to leave? Taoist Wutai, if your real body was here, I would still be a little afraid of you, but you are just an incarnation..."

Before Yuanhua could finish his words, a five-colored light descended and swept towards him fiercely.

Yuan Hua's eyes widened, and he raised the jade staff in his hand high. Purple air and golden flowers rose, and thousands of Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Treasure Scrolls of all sizes flew out, forming a light curtain and treasure tower to protect the grandfather and grandson of the Yuan family.

However, facing the magical power of Taoist Wutai, this method was ultimately inferior by three points and was defeated.

Just as Yuanhua was thinking about how to escape, a clear light emerged, rose from the bottom, turned in the air and fell again, turning into a light curtain to protect Yuanhua.

Seeing this, Taoist Wutai sneered and said, "Are you finally willing to show up? Judging from your external incarnation, it is obvious that you have completed the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Scripture of Master Hunyuan" and started to practice the "Nine Heavens Mysterious Scripture" itself."

The visitor heard this and responded, "I heard earlier that you were sorting out your own cultivation methods. Now it seems that your Taiyi Hunyuan Jinzhang has been perfected, and you can integrate the Taiyi Yushu Jiuzhuan Yanwuxing Miaofa and the Hunyuan Yiqi Shenghua Wuxing Xuanwei Zhenfa."

When saying this, the person also glanced in the direction Chu Tai left.

Chu Tai, who was hundreds of miles away, was secretly amazed. He had a clearer understanding of the abilities of these two seniors. He decisively cut off the backup plan and left this place of trouble.

However, as far as he knew, he was somewhat concerned about the previous communication between the people sent by Emei and the Taoist priest from Wutai.

The core of the Wutai School's practice method is the "Taiyi Hunyuan Jinzhang" created by the Wutai Taoist priest, with the "Taiyi Zhengfang Wuxing Pian" as the foundation, and the "Xiantian Taiyi Chunyang Miaofa" as a link between the upper and lower parts. The most important ones are the "Taiyi Yushu Jiuzhuan Yanwuxing Miaofa" and the "Hunyuan Yiqi Shenghua Wuxing Xuanwei Zhenfa" two lineages of practice as the orthodox methods.

Secondly, the Wutai Sect also has the demonic "Mysterious Sutra of the Heavens" and "Miscellaneous Sutras of the Four Demons", as well as the Buddhist "Manjushri Prajna Sutra".

Among these scriptures, the series of cultivation methods in "Taiyi Hunyuan Jinzhang" can be regarded as the methods that Wutai Taoist learned from Taiyi Zhenjun. It is the evidence that he is a descendant of the Taiyi lineage. Over the years, he has been constantly improving the Taiyi method, and he has also thought about occupying the remaining destiny of the Taiyi Immortal Sect.

It's a pity that his method of cultivation is too complicated. The "Mysterious Scripture of the Secret Demons of the Heavens" records many secrets of the secret demons outside the sky, as well as many supporting methods of refining magic magic weapons. As a result, the Wutai Sect has been unable to complete the integration with the Taiyi Immortal Sect.

As for the "Four Demons Miscellaneous Scriptures", it is even more exaggerated. It is a summary of the paths of the four great demon kings compiled by Taoist Wutai during his time on the path of the devil. It records in detail hundreds of kinds of magic from the path of the Lord Demon, the path of the Buddha Demon, the path of the Blood Demon and the path of the Heaven Demon, as well as hundreds of methods of refining magic weapons.

However, it is said that the Wutai Sect has been constantly deleting this part of the content in recent years, or modifying some of the things that are not suitable for Xuanmen. The Iron Umbrella Taoist's Disha Tianyin Hook is one of the typical cases.

As for the last "Manjushri Prajna Sutra", it is the inheritance of the Manjushri Taoism acquired by the Wutai Sect, and it is also one of the methods used by many Wutai monks to stabilize their minds.

It is precisely because of these circumstances that, although the Wutai Sect is mainly based on the Xuanmen school, the environment within the Tao is complex, with intertwined energies and destiny, and it is very interesting to see whether it is neither immortal, Buddha, or demon.

In comparison, the practice method of the Emei Sect is much more sequential. According to the explanation of Taoist Youkan, most of the Shaoqing immortal methods practiced by the Emei Sect start with the "Shaoqing Linggan Sutra", then lay the foundation with the "Shaoqing Zifu Secret Book", and then choose one of the "Ziqing Doushi Zhenchi" and "Difu Shaoqing Tianzhuan" to practice simultaneously, and finally learn the most supreme method "Nine Heavens Mysterious Sutra".

In addition, although Su in the Emei Sect also has the completed "Three One Five Tooth Sutra", the "White Ape Sword Sutra" learned from the Thunder and Fire Swords, the "Lotus Sutra" and "Buddha's Sutra on the Practice of Samantabhadra Bodhisattva" inherited from the Emei Mountain Buddhism, etc., these methods are mostly practiced concurrently by Emei disciples. Except for a few disciples who inherited the Emei Buddhism, no one will take these methods as the core.

This is also why many people believe that the true founder of the Emei Sect is the Third Patriarch Baimei Taoist who created the Shaoqing Immortal Technique.

Of course, some people also believe that Taoist Baimei was able to achieve enlightenment because of True Lord Hunyuan. As we all know, True Lord Hunyuan originally practiced the Taiqing Immortal Method.

In addition, when Taoist Baimei first entered Taoism, the core method he practiced, the "White Ape Sword Sutra", had a close connection with the Taiqing lineage, and the remaining chapters of the "Three One Five Teeth Sutra" were even more of a wonderful method of the Taiqing lineage. Therefore, some people believe that the Emei School should belong to the Taiqing lineage, and that a True Lord Hunyuan can be added among the ancestors.

It is said that this idea was mentioned during the reign of the fifth generation leader of the Emei Sect.

But in the end, he was rejected by Master Hunyuan. He said that the Emei Sect was a branch of the Taiqing Sect and was the inheritor of his Hunyuan Taoist tradition, but Taoist Baimei had already walked his own path and there was no need to regard him as the ancestor.

But it must be said that the actions of the fifth-generation leader of the Emei Sect at that time made many immortal sects and cultivators of the Hunyuan lineage feel more favorable towards Emei, and many cultivators of the Hunyuan lineage were also willing to cooperate with the Emei Sect.

The fact that Emei Sect has such a great appeal today is also related to this incident.

As far as Taoist Youkan knew, there were as many as nine Hunyuan Taoist sects and fourth-grade cultivators that had close relations with the Emei Sect and had fourth-grade celestial beings.

The sects are Shangyuan Palace on Ziguang Mountain, Qingyang Palace on Yuanbao Mountain, Qingxu Temple on Heming Mountain, Yuanmingmen on Mingjian Mountain, and Xuanyuan Island overseas. The monks are Yuanming Taoist and Zihua Fairy, as well as Master Tianque and Kongtuo Zen Master from the Buddhist sect.

"But judging from the current situation, we should also add the Danxia Mountain lineage..."

Chu Tai thought about it for a while, and pondered in his mind the capabilities of Mount Wutai, intending to compare it with the Emei Sect.

'Although the Wutai Sect has joined the Xuan Sect, its roots are not clean after all. Most of its allies are first-class side sects. The only ones that can provide first-class fourth-grade assistance are the Huashan Lihuo Palace, the Heihe Bei Xuan Sect, the Fangchun Mountain Xuansang Grandma, the Jinguang Valley Taibai Xianma and the Zhenyuan Lake Wutu Island lineage. However, these five lines are not so much allies of the Wutai Sect as they are fellow practitioners who comprehend each other's five elements. When the Wutai Sect and the Emei Sect really fight, they may not intervene...'

Thinking of this, Chu Tai's thoughts couldn't help but linger on Grandma Xuansang and Immortal Grandma Taibai. These two could be considered old acquaintances of the Taiyi lineage. Both of them had received part of the inheritance from True Lord Taiyi, but their cultivation foundation had little to do with the Taiyi lineage. However, in recent years they seemed to have the idea of ​​becoming Taiyi disciples and had the intention of establishing a sect.

'I just don't know, did they come up with the idea of ​​establishing a sect themselves, or did someone hope that they would take over the fate of the Taiyi lineage?'

Thinking of this, Chu Tai couldn't help but sigh secretly. He felt that the difficulty of taking back the Jinhua Sect's dojo in the future and subsequently revitalizing the Taiyi lineage was even greater than he had originally imagined.
