Marvel's Magic Master

The next day, Ao Bing and Nezha followed Taiyi Zhenren to Yuxu Palace in Kunlun Mountain under the reluctant gaze and repeated instructions of Li Jing and his wife.

Ao Guang had already returned to his body and handed over all affairs here to Shen Gongbao.

He is the most important force to suppress the three dragon kings and the sea monsters, so his soul cannot leave the body for too long, otherwise the seal will loosen and there will be trouble.

George did not go to Yuxu Palace. Although he wanted to join the Chan Sect and become Yuanshi Tianzun's apprentice, he had to understand the situation first.

After all, this is not the real Investiture of the Gods, but a parallel world, and some things are still different.

Just like the current eldest senior brother of Yuxu Palace is called Wuliang Xianweng, but he remembers that the eldest senior brother of the Chenjiao in the Investiture of the Gods should be called Nanji Xianweng.

And there was something else behind Shen Gongbao's words yesterday, which also proved that there might be something fishy going on in Yuxu Palace.

So he planned to have another good talk with Shen Gongbao, collect more information about Yuxu Palace, and then combine it with the information he had obtained from Taiyi Zhenren.

The final decision is whether to join the orthodox sect or the unorthodox sect.

In fact, he wanted to join the human religion more.

First of all, in his opinion, among the Three Pure Ones, Laozi is the most powerful.

Secondly, Taishang Laojun is good at refining elixirs, and his only real disciple is Master Xuandu. If you can become his second disciple, you will definitely be trained as a key person.

Unlike the Orthodox and Unorthodox sects, which have too many members, even if you become a disciple, the master will lead you to the door, and the practice depends on yourself. Most of the time, you still have to figure it out on your own.

Finally, with the protection of Taishang Laojun, basically as long as you don’t act too recklessly, you don’t have to worry about danger.

Unless he directly confronts Tongtian Jiaozhu and Yuanshi Tianzun, there is nothing he can do.

Unfortunately, Taishang Laojun doesn't like to accept disciples, so there is basically no chance of becoming his disciple.

"Master Shen practices so hard, he is truly a role model for us!"

George flew to the top of the city wall and saw Shen Gongbao practicing hard with a thunder whip in his hand, and he praised him loudly.

Compared to the greedy and sleepy Taiyi, Shen Gongbao's practice is indeed very hard. From yesterday to today, he has hardly stopped.

But the reality is cruel, some things cannot be achieved by hard work.

Moreover, Taoist practice places more emphasis on talent and understanding.

Although Taiyi was greedy and sleepy and did not practice diligently, he just fits the Taoist idea of ​​being free from distractions.

Therefore, his cultivation level is not much worse than Shen Gongbao, who works hard every day, and his upper limit in the future will be much higher.

This is also one of the reasons why Yuanshi Tianzun values ​​Taiyi Zhenren.

"Practice, don't slack off!"

Only when he saw George appear did Shen Gongbao stop practicing and put away the thunder whip.

The mermaid who was assisting in the practice over there was almost exhausted.

"admire!"

George waved his hand, conjuring up tables, chairs, and sumptuous food and wine, then said with a smile:
"Excuse me for delaying Master Shen for a moment. I have something I want to ask you."

"It doesn't matter."

Shen Gongbao waved his hand and sat down.

He and the dragon clan already owed each other a favor, so they would be more than happy to be of help.

George picked up the wine glass and poured a glass of wine for Shen Gongbao:

“For a thousand years, I have been practicing in seclusion, and I am not very clear about the outside world. I only know that the Three Religions are the orthodox Taoism, so I want the help of the immortal to introduce me to the Yuxu Palace.

I just don’t know what’s going on in Yuxu Palace, I hope Master Shen can give me some pointers.”

"I've given up drinking a long time ago. To cultivate one's cultivation, one must control one's desires. As the saying goes: If one cuts off one's desires, one's spirit will be complete."

Shen Gongbao pushed the wine glass aside, then picked up a piece of mutton with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, then slowly said:
"Fellow Daoist Black Dragon, in your situation, I don't really recommend you to join Yuxu Palace. Yuxu Palace is not as good as you think."

"how do I say this?"

George's heart moved, knowing that Shen Gongbao must know some inside information.

In the eyes of Taiyi Zhenren, Yuxu Palace is perfect and there is nothing wrong with it, but that is because he is Yuanshi Tianzun's most beloved disciple.

So it cannot be used as a complete criterion for judgment.

"As a disciple of the Chan Sect, I shouldn't have said this, but you have done me and the Dragon Clan a favor, and I don't want you to end up like me in the future."

Shen Gongbao thought of the injustices he had suffered over the years, reached out and grabbed the glass of wine that had just been pushed away, drank it all, and began to recount his experiences over the years.

Shen Gongbao's father was named Shen Zhengdao, a leopard monster.

However, unlike those evil leopard monsters who eat people, he is a kind-hearted and upright leopard monster.

Before he became a demon, he was picked up and raised by a kind-hearted wild Taoist priest, from whom he learned a lot of Taoist knowledge.

It is also because of this that he highly respects Yuxu Palace.

He also opened private schools in the seven mountains and five ridges to guide the monsters in their practice and guide them onto the right path.

The thing he was most proud of was that his son Shen Gongbao, whom he personally taught, successfully passed the entrance exam to Yuxu Palace and became an immortal of Yuxu Palace.

So when Shen Gongbao entered Yuxu Palace, he brought with him all his father's expectations and the blessings of the monsters in the territory.

For this reason, he did not dare to slack off for a moment and practiced day and night.

However, when he actually entered Yuxu Palace, he realized that things were not that simple at all, and Yuxu Palace was not as good as his father and he thought.

Born as a leopard monster, no matter how hard he tried, he was looked down upon by his fellow disciples.

The eldest senior brother, Wuliang Xianweng, even used threats and inducements to make him the captain of the monster-hunting team, leading the team to the lower world to capture monsters and refine them into elixirs for the disciples of Yuxu Palace to practice.

Of course, on the surface it means that they will go to the lower world to capture those rebellious demons, bring them to Yuxu Palace to educate them, and then release them.

Among the demons that were actually captured, except for a few who were really causing chaos in the lower world, most were kind demons who had never hurt anyone. They had always stayed in their own territories and practiced hard.

Even so, he didn't get many elixirs over the years, not even as many as some of the respected third-generation disciples.

As for the promises made by the eldest senior brother Wuliang Xianweng, none of them were fulfilled.

If he had not been clever, he might have been cursed by Wuliang Xianweng and turned into helpless puppets, just like Wuliang Xianweng's two disciples, Lu Tong and He Tong.

“I have done a lot of wrong things, and there is no turning back, and I don’t want to turn back.

This world is so cruel, only if you are strong enough can you get everything you want!"

Shen Gongbao slapped the table.

He never thought that he was innocent. Although many things were done under the coercion of his senior brother Wuliang Xianweng, he did do them.

There are indeed many kind-hearted monsters who were able to make elixirs because of him.

He felt ashamed of his father's teachings.

But he did not regret it. His experiences in the Chan sect over the years taught him that only by constantly climbing up and becoming stronger could he have a foothold in this world.

Only if he becomes one of the Twelve Golden Immortals and is valued by Yuanshi Tianzun, will his younger brother and the monsters in the territory avoid experiencing the discrimination and suffering that he has experienced.
