Donghuang Ziji

Chapter 421: Pneumatic Fire

"It's easy to say, 'Follow my own path,' but how many people in the world can do it?"

Taoist Yunchi sighed, looked at Shao Siming with a trace of admiration in his eyes and said, "Daoyou, you have done it, which is much better than me. However, you were too impulsive before. Sikong Xi's magical power is strange. If you are not careful, you may be attacked back."

Chu Tai could tell that Taoist Yunchi was talking about the problem of his true Qi being affected by Sikong Xi, which caused the colorful glow to appear.

If it were in the past, Chu Tai would not have talked about this in detail, but now as the head of a sect, although he is not inferior to the vast majority of fourth-grade celestial beings in the cave heaven and can also exert combat power equivalent to that of a fourth-grade cultivator through the air, his cultivation is only fifth-grade after all. Appropriately exposing some things will help to create a deterrent.

Especially when some of the positions of the Donghuang Bell are compatible with Chu Tai and his trump card has clearly changed, exposing his own practice intentions is also a way to divert other people's attention.

"Fellow Daoist, you worry too much. My Dharma will is very special. It can be called [One], which is both a starting point and an individual. Sikong Xi pursues the emptiness of the five aggregates, so he is easily disturbed by my power. Of course, I caught him off guard before. If he had time to react, the effects of my magical powers and Dharma will would have been greatly weakened."

Yun Chi was a little surprised when she heard this. Although she guessed that Chu Tai's method of cultivation was very special, she really didn't expect that the Dharma meaning Chu Tai condensed was actually [One]. This name, plus the previous feelings and the specialness that Chu Tai had always shown, can all be deduced that this Dharma meaning is not simple at all, and the condensation and grasp of its concept must be a very difficult task.

'Is this the fate of Taiyi Xianmen over the years, to breed a person who can cope with the changes and disasters of heaven and earth? This kind of talent and ability is enough to be compared with the third ancestor, the White Eyebrow Patriarch. The other ancestors are all inferior to him.'

Suppressing his surprise, Yun Chi said with a smile, "The meaning of the law of [One], the starting point and the individual. Is this the reason why you didn't give the other party a chance to speak and just attacked crazily when you had the upper hand?"

"Sikong Xi has specialized in Buddhism for many years and is familiar with many Buddhist scriptures. If we insist on competing with him on the concepts of the five aggregates being empty, the four elements being empty, and the emptiness of form, we will only be dragged into the field he is good at and circumvent his thinking logic. It is not easy to defeat the other party in a field that he is proficient in."

"I see. That's why you finally told Sikong Xi that if you don't recognize the color as yourself, get out of this world created by Yuan Qi."

Yun Chi's praise made Chu Tai a little embarrassed, and he smiled and said, "This is not just an explanation. It is also an ability similar to the Word Spirit that I gained during my practice. I can influence the opponent's power through words, and then shake the opponent's power system. Of course, this power is not very useful for a fourth-grade cultivator under normal circumstances, but Sikong Xi is just right for it."

"Because he doesn't recognize his physical form as his true self, he is easily affected by your Dharma and then disturbed by your words. So this was his weakest state before, which is a pity."

Taoist Yunchi understood the whole story and couldn't help feeling sorry.

According to Chu Tai's description, although Sikong Xi was not fundamentally injured before, after giving up the five aggregates and the color phase, he was in the least connected with the heaven and earth. If he was forced a little more, he might have to ascend.

"However, given the current situation, the other party should not interfere too much in human affairs in the short term. This will give us some peace and quiet for a while."

Yun Chi nodded at Chu Tai's summary. Chu Tai had a brief conversation with her and then got up and returned to Yulou Pavilion to stay for five days.

During the five days, Shao Siming helped fellow Minghua brothers to stabilize their cultivation and practice the Lingtai method. Feifei and Guo Shan helped to repair the surrounding earth veins, set up formations, and improve the spiritual power of the Taoist temple.

However, before Shao Siming left, Gu Nan went to Jinhua Sect to pay a visit to Chu Tai.

This meant that when Shao Siming left, only his fellow apprentice Minghua and his brother were there to see him off. Minghua took out the token of the leader of Yulouge, separated a wisp of his aura and merged it into a jade token, which he handed to Shao Siming, bowing and saying, "If the Jinhua Sect comes to you with this item in the future, as long as it does not go against the righteousness of the world, my Yulouge will surely help you." Shao Siming did not delay. After taking the token, the fortune of the Jinhua Sect fluctuated slightly and showed a slight improvement.

Chu Tai, who felt something, took a look and many immortal monks who also noticed this also raised their heads and began to calculate silently.

The face of the great ancestor in Lihuo Palace turned red, a little angry and a little helpless.

"It is worthy of being the orthodox inheritance of Taiyi Xianmen. Just by taking over a third-rate sect, it can bring about changes in its own destiny. We have successively occupied four Taiyi inheritances, and each one is better than the other, but the improvement is less than one-third of the other. Even so, we still need to send disciples to suppress the changes in the ground veins of the corresponding dojo. You and I also have to stay in the sect, sort out the destiny, and prevent a counterattack."

"But your cultivation has indeed improved a little, right?"

Patriarch Mingzhi said a few words of advice and looked at the lotus pond in front of him that was transformed by his destiny. In the slightly messy water of the pond, four lotus flowers of different colors were immersed and were being melted bit by bit by the water.

The fire lotus standing in the center of the lotus pond exudes a warm glow, emitting strands of golden red light, and a very faint green color can be vaguely seen in the center.

Ancestor Dayou looked at the green light, and a hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

"You are right. Although the fate of these four sects is difficult to digest, the quality of their fate is not low, and the corresponding inheritance is also quite mysterious. It will be helpful for me to improve my own true qi. If I continue like this, in about thirty years, I will be able to try to achieve the third-grade true qi in the human world. After another ten years, you can also try this."

"At that time, our Lihuo Palace will be able to expand outward, occupy more of Huashan's destiny, and even become the leader of Huashan's Taoist tradition."

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Mingzhi did not answer, but looked in the direction of Mount Wutai. Seeing this, Patriarch Dayou said in a cold voice, "Are you worried about Taoist Wutai? This guy and I have been friends for many years, and he will not cheat us in this regard."

"I am not worried about Fellow Daoist Wutai, but I am worried about the subsequent changes brought about by the fate of Taiyi Xianmen."

Patriarch Mingzhi showed a slightly worried look on his face.

"There are actually quite a few people who have tried to annex Taiyi Xianmen's destiny, but most of them chose to take their time and share a small amount of profits. Wutai Sect, us, and the people from Emei Sect have put this matter out in the open. As far as the current situation is concerned, if we don't progress fast enough, Wutai Taoist may not be able to suppress the subsequent changes."

"Whether it's the Humane Dynasty, other unorthodox sects, or even the Demonic Path, they may not let go of this opportunity."

"After all, it's not easy to attack Taiyi Xianmen, but they won't show mercy to those of us who stole Taiyi Xianmen's luck."

Patriarch Mingzhi's words made Dayou silent for a moment, and he said in a cold voice: "Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. We have chosen this path. If we fail, we will die. You stay here and I will go and get the inheritance of Taiyi Mingli Mansion first. The suppression of that Taoist temple will be put aside for later."
