Wet viviparity

Chapter 943 Dojo, Horizontal Pupil
Deep within the White Scales Reef, a white dragon is resting on the rocky islet.

Suddenly, the pool water moved on its own without any wind. He alertly raised his dragon head and looked out of the temple. His gaze swept hundreds of miles away and saw thousands of fire pearls flying towards him. In the blink of an eye, they condensed into a path of fire, on which a Taoist priest flew at lightning speed.

The white dragon exhaled in disappointment and lay back underwater, revealing only its pair of golden dragon eyes.

The Taoist priest who had escaped saw the white dragon's expression change from expectation to dislike. His already red face turned purple, and he was furious.

“Okay, okay, okay.

You old dragon who judges people by their appearance, I'm definitely going to tell the teacher all about you!

The Taoist was furious, but he didn't move an inch. Seeing that the white dragon was unmoved, he could only swallow his bitterness.

He saw an old Taoist priest beside the white dragon in the Taoist temple. He was a complete stranger. After looking at him carefully, he found that the man had a ruddy complexion, was outwardly yang but inwardly yin, and was actually a yin being who had achieved the skill of returning to yang.

Just as she frowned, realizing that such behavior was detrimental to the serene and auspicious atmosphere of her teacher's dojo, she suddenly remembered the man's identity. She hurriedly straightened her clothes, stepped down in front of the man, and bowed, saying, "Uncle-Master, how have you been? Your disciple, Zao Ling'er, pays her respects."

The old Taoist returned the greeting and said with a smile, "You're too kind. Master Qingyang has already prepared fragrant tea and elixirs with his disciples. You've come all the way from the Central Plains, so please go and enjoy them."

Zao Ling'er bowed repeatedly, and said with shame, "Just now I did not recognize my martial uncle and looked down on him as a ghost or something like that. I was truly ignorant and ungrateful. Please forgive me! Please forgive me!"

"You're a very honest child, no wonder your teacher values ​​you so much."

The old Taoist priest didn't take it to heart at all; on the contrary, he praised her highly, which made Zao Ling'er even more ashamed.

Zao Ling'er stood there straight and said, "I'll wait for my senior brother with my martial uncle."

"Senior Brother?" Bai Long's gaze shifted to Zao Ling'er, and he suddenly became interested. He teased, "Aren't you still in the Fourth Realm? According to the rules of your Daoist sect, shouldn't you call him 'Uncle-Master'? How can you be so ill-mannered?"

Zao Ling'er pretended not to hear. He knew that Bai Long loved to play this trick, and he always fell for it, making himself look bad.

Now that the teacher is giving the third lecture, the senior brother who has been living in seclusion for many years is coming, and the senior brother's master is also here. He should be magnanimous and not stoop to Bai Long's level.

"coming!"

Everyone sensed that the person had arrived.

The light suddenly contracted, as if an invisible mouth had swallowed the light from the sky above Liuji.

As the light dimmed, the originally lustrous water instantly sank into darkness. The white dragon was so startled that it flew up to the high cliff. Zao Ling'er and the old Taoist looked up together and saw that all the radiant light in the sky collapsed, and the Taoist temple instantly became dark and gloomy.

In the center of that twilight sky, a white lotus silently bloomed.

The lotus petals unfolded extremely slowly, and with each partial unfolding, the surrounding darkness deepened. The two people and the dragon stared intently at the lotus, first seeing a blurry outline, then gradually revealing a figure sitting cross-legged within it, as if slowly emerging from the gloom.

When the lotus platform was fully revealed, the entire Ryusei was plunged into complete darkness.

At this moment, only a pair of eyes appeared in the darkness, and then suddenly became bright, so bright that Zao Ling'er and the old Taoist could not open their eyes. Only Bai Long could see clearly that there were two short horizontal pupils in those two eyes.

Before long, the light in the temple began to slowly flow back, focusing on those horizontal eyes. First, Su Lian was illuminated, then the drooping sleeves of her robe, and finally the face of the person was revealed.

"I knew it was this guy." Bai Long closed his eyes to relieve the tingling and numbness from the bright light, but before he could recover much, he couldn't help but open his eyes again. The figure of the Taoist priest before him had gained even more Taoist charm than before. Although he had not yet attained enlightenment, he was already unfathomable.

Zao Ling'er cupped her hands and said, "Senior brother, how have you been? I heard that you have been in seclusion at Jiheng Mountain for seventeen years and have made rapid progress. You have even condensed the Taiyi Golden Lamp into a physical form."

Ji Ming chuckled softly without saying a word, his gaze falling on the white dragon. The white dragon was also looking over from afar, and their eyes met. The white dragon felt its primordial spirit waver and felt dizzy, almost slipping off the high cliff. Its tail frantically swept across the water, creating huge waves.

"master."

Ji Ming approached Fei Huzi and bowed.

Fei Huzi looked Ji Ming up and down carefully, sometimes laughing and sometimes sighing, saying, "It's been many years since we last met. I never imagined that He Guan would be so successful under your leadership, accomplishing a great undertaking that I never dared to dream of."

"Master has mastered the art of rebirth and is now almost indistinguishable from a living person. The day of his return to life is just around the corner."

However, considering the time elapsed, Master has lived for nearly five hundred years, both before and after his death. He should be wary of the lightning calamity, one of the three calamities. I have already refined an Eight Winds Talisman using the Six Earth Divine Qi, which should be sufficient for Master to avoid this calamity.”

Ji Ming handed a jade-green wooden talisman to Master Fei Hu. Fei Hu took the talisman, trying to calm his turbulent emotions, and said, "On Crab Island in the South China Sea, my life and cultivation are without any dissatisfaction. Such a life is truly like that of an immortal."

But I also know that this feeling is only because of Teacher Qingyang's influence.

Later, your fame spread overseas, and my life became even better. I became like a morally upright elder, and people of all sizes on the islands in the sea would come to treat me with respect.

As my reputation has grown, I've also made the acquaintance of a couple of immortals on Crab Island. I'll tell you about them after I meet Master Qingyang; they might benefit you in the future."

Ji Ming and his master reminisced for a while, each with their own sighs. During this time, he also chatted for a few words with the reserved Zao Ling'er. Even Bai Long restrained his usual temper, came over and said a few words before inviting everyone into the Liuli Guangting Pavilion.

Inside the pavilion, Qingyang Xian's figure slowly coalesced.

Besides Qingyang Xian, there was another familiar figure to Ji Ming—Master Huolong.

The grand lesson, which takes place once every forty years, is now in its final stage. Ji Ming knows that Immortal Qingyang has invited Martial Uncle Fire Dragon, which means that Ji Ming has refined the Taiyi Golden Lamp and all the necessary conditions have been met, so he can prepare to awaken his younger brother's innate wisdom.

Both Qingyang Xian and Huolong noticed Ji Ming's eyes. Huolong, the senior master, asked directly, "These eyes are quite wondrous. They were not formed through cultivation, nor were they innate. They must have been formed by a wondrous and spiritual object from heaven and earth being refined into the eyes."

"Master Uncle has excellent eyesight. Why don't you calculate the power of this eye?"

Ji Ming smiled.

These eyes were created when he was refining the Yin Yao. In a moment of inspiration, he obtained the method of eye refinement from the old golden rooster, split the Yin Yao in two, and refined it into his eyes. After several years of nurturing, they were finally usable.

The fire dragon also became interested and immediately began to calculate, but gave up after only a short while.

"Forget it, you're a mysterious fellow, why should I waste my energy? I still have to work hard with Fellow Daoist Qingyang later!"

"Haha, I'll give the lecture first, then we'll talk about other things."

Qingyang Xian laughed.
