Qiu Zu: From an apprentice in a medicine shop to an immortal ancestor

Chapter 128: Making Friends
I don’t know how much time passed.

Qiu Zhen was immersed in "Xiao Yao Ge Jue" for a long time, unable to extricate himself. The light of his innate spirit in his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness was consumed crazily, and even the [Tian Yan 49 Divine Pearls] became dim.

Just like an old Taoist who has been sitting in a cave for many years to meditate on the truth, his appearance is emaciated.

The primordial spirit and the Dharma body both seemed to be becoming somewhat illusory.

until
"I've spread the word by word of mouth!"

A faint sound came from the sky.

Qiu Zhen suddenly woke up and awoke from his state of enlightenment. His soul and Dharma body stopped deducing and began to reflect, regulate his breathing and concentrate his mind.

About half an hour later.

Qiu Zhen looked inward at himself, and after returning to his senses, his illusory soul and body became solid again, and he felt a little relieved.

Just now, it was extremely dangerous. I was too immersed in the rhythm of poetry and almost damaged the origin of my soul and Dharma body.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, he heard the sound of "word of mouth" and suddenly woke up and interrupted his meditation.

"Is this Lu Zu's way of the golden elixir?"

Qiu Zhen murmured to himself, feeling slightly excited.

A true word is passed on, and a thousand volumes of books are falsely passed on.

This regulated verse may seem short, but it actually explains all the mysteries of Lu Zu's "Way of the Golden Elixir".

Even though he awakened his primordial spirit and Dharma body, and had the innate magic weapon to deduce, and almost exhausted the origin of his primordial spirit, he only had some understanding of the first sentence "Yuqing left behind the Xiaoyao Jue, four words to concentrate the mind into the Qi point."

However, just this little realization made him feel "suddenly enlightened" and vaguely touched upon some mysterious realm.

That is "doing nothing and yet doing something", entering into the mysterious realm of the wonderful use of the vacuum, which is difficult to describe in words.

It can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words.

Of course, Qiu Zhen has no time to experience and comprehend it carefully at the moment.

The reason was simple. Not long after he calmed his breath and regulated his breathing, he heard a boiling sound in his ears.

"Hey, Master Lou's evil magic has failed, and the yin and yang in my body have been restored to order."

"It seems that the power of the demonic barrier in the body is also beginning to weaken."

"Hahahaha, this old man has finally regained his male body."

After listening to the noisy sounds from the outside world, Qiu Zhen was unable to calmly experience and summarize his feelings, so he immediately ended his meditation and opened his eyes.

As soon as I open my eyes.

The next moment, he felt more than twenty pairs of eyes looking at him.

Among the crowd, those with high levels of Taoist cultivation have transformed back into men and recovered their Taoist cultivation. Even those who are slightly weaker will not be disturbed by Lou Daoming's evil magic at this time, and their Taoist cultivation will recover bit by bit.

Everyone is still in prison, but each of them has escaped danger.

This small prison can no longer hold them.

But no one left and waited silently.

Until everyone saw Qiu Zhen finish his meditation and wake up, they all bowed and shed tears of gratitude:

"Thank you, Taoist Qingwei, for your bravery in exorcising the demons and saving us."

Just now, everyone in the prison had asked Fairy Yunrou and Monk Zhenkong about this expert who could slay demons with his wise sword.

They heard that Taoist Qingwei was not very interested in the secret realm of immortals at first, and did not come after being invited several times. Only after hearing that the two were in trouble did he rush to rescue them. Everyone was really shocked and surprised.

It has the style of true cultivation of Taoism from ancient times.

This thought popped up in everyone's mind.

In today's world, in this world of immortal cultivation where demons and evil spirits are rampant, accumulating merits and virtues, and cultivating one's nature and truth are all dead ends. True cultivation becomes increasingly precious.

Among the people present, there were monks who acted uprightly, monks who were both good and evil, and even monks who followed unorthodox methods. There was a mixed bag of good and bad people.

However, no matter what you are like, whether you are a good person or a bad person, the principles of making friends are basically the same.

In order to rescue his fellow Taoist, this "Qingwei Taoist Fellow" risked his life by entering the devil's lair and taking action.

This is the kind of person that anyone would like to associate with, or even become close friends with.

Not to mention, at this moment, Mr. Qingwei has displayed his supernatural powers, slayed the demon with his sword of wisdom, and saved their lives. This is a great opportunity to express their gratitude or to make friends with them.

Although they had escaped from trouble, they were reluctant to leave because they wanted to make friends with the mysterious monk "Qingwei Jushi".

"My fellow comrades, you are welcome."

Qiu Zhen bowed to his fellow travelers and was also surprised.

It was the first time for him to meet so many fellow cultivators.

There is the Qian Dao and there is the Kun Dao;
There are Taoist priests, Buddhist monks, Confucian scholars, and unorthodox practitioners, and so on.

Among them, there was a middle-aged man in Taoist robes who stood out from the crowd. His fellow prisoners in the prison regarded him as a "senior" and treated him with great respect. He was like a prominent figure in this dungeon.

At this moment, he was the first to speak, and no one else took the spotlight from him:
"Fellow Daoist Qingwei, I am Yu Chanzi, and I am fortunate to meet you today. I hope to get to know you a little bit."

This Taoist priest named "Yu Chanzi" is also not a simple person.

With the blessing of Qiu Shen's original spirit and powerful spiritual awareness, he was able to vaguely discern a clue that "Yu Chanzi" was actually at the level of "controlling Qi and wandering the spirit", a Yin Shen master equivalent to the "innate inner scene martial artist".

Obviously, this "Yu Chanzi" is the "Yu Qi Youshen" master who had fallen into the gutter as mentioned by Yun Rou and the monk.

If Yu Chanzi can go one step further, he will become a real "old monster who cultivates immortality" and a powerful spirit.

This was the first time Qiu Zhen had seen a cultivator of such a high level. He did not neglect him and bowed:
"I am a lay Buddhist, a solitary cultivator in the mountains, without any sect or school. I am honored to meet Senior Yu Chanzi!"

A wandering cultivator in the mountains, without any sect or school,
The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Yu Chanzi originally just wanted to make some friends, but when he heard “no sect or school, just a wandering cultivator in the mountains”, he couldn’t help but feel his heart beating fast.

He had personally experienced the weirdness and difficulty of "Master Lou". Even with his Yin Shen realm of "controlling Qi and wandering the gods", he still capsized in the gutter and fell into the fairyland. However, this Taoist Qingwei was obviously not as good as him in cultivation, but he was able to kill demons with his wisdom sword.

His moral cultivation was so high that even he, who was well-informed, was secretly astonished.

High spiritual merit may not show any signs of magical powers, but it is extremely important for those who practice Taoism. In a sense, spiritual merit means the "upper limit". The stronger the mind, the brighter the future.

With the wisdom sword of this lay Buddhist killing the devil, the character and cultivation he showed, I dare not say how far he will go, but I am sure that his impact on the realm of "refining qi and transforming it into spirit" in the future will be much greater than that of ordinary people.

This kind of person is actually a wandering cultivator from the mountains without any sect or school.

Yu Chanzi immediately became more amiable:
"I am ashamed. I am only a few years older than you. I dare not call you senior."

Yu Chanzi still wanted to talk to Qiu Zhen, but unfortunately, there was no chance at all.

After the two greeted each other.

Soon, everyone in the cell greeted Qiu Zhen.

"I am Taoist Yulong, nice to meet Taoist Qingwei."

"Fellow Daoist Qingwei, my Buddhist name is Guangyuan."

"I am Bai Lingzi, a wandering cultivator in the mountains. Thank you for saving me, fellow Taoist."

Everyone in the cell greeted Qiu Zhen, left their contact information, and made friends with him. The scene was extremely lively for a while.

At first, everyone mainly greeted Qiu Zhen and wanted to make friends with him, and then they talked to each other and got to know each other.

For a time, this place became a gathering place for cultivators.

Of course, everyone did not delay in "discussing the truth", but left the prison one after another and continued to explore the "secret realm of immortals" excitedly.

This time, Qiu Zhenhui killed the demon with his sword and got the chance to become an immortal. This was a foregone conclusion and others did not envy him at all.

The reason is simple: they still have a chance to find immortality.

The Taoists have Emperor Fuyou, just as the Buddhists have Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara.

The World Honored One does nothing, and his law comes from the Bodhisattva. The Supreme One does nothing, and his law comes from the Emperor.

In the past, the Buddha selected Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva as the most accomplished among all Buddhas at the Lengyan Assembly. As for Lu Zu, he was also the most accomplished among all Buddhas.

Although Lu Zu attained heavenly status, he still went in and out of the human world, saving countless people and spreading the immortal teachings.

This time, the secret realm of immortals is more than just a legacy of immortals. After Qiu Zhen obtained Lu Zu's true teachings, the secret realm did not disappear.

As long as the secret realm of immortality does not completely collapse and disappear, others will still have a chance to encounter immortality.

Because of this, the conversation did not last long.

Soon, everyone left the dungeon and went to other places in the "Lou Mansion" to look for immortal opportunities.

"Qingwei, you have been living in seclusion for many years, but you are unknown. If you show your power today, your name will resound throughout the immortal cultivation world in Changle Prefecture tomorrow."

Fairy Yunrou smiled and said jokingly:
"From now on, I'm afraid I won't be able to boast of my extensive network of contacts in front of you."

"Yes."

Monk Zhenkong nodded. Just now, the focus of all his fellow monks was basically on Qingwei, and everyone wanted to make friends with him.

Of course, the two of them were not jealous or envious at all, they just felt proud of it.

"Hehe~ It's different."

Qiu Zhen shook his head and said with a smile:

"After all, the three of us know each other well and have a deep friendship."

Fairy Yunrou and Monk Zhenkong nodded solemnly upon hearing this.

This time, Qingwei came to the rescue. Although the two did not say anything, they kept it in their hearts.

"You two should also go explore the secret realm of immortals. Don't miss the opportunity."

"it is good!"

The three of them didn't say much and followed everyone out of the dungeon.

As soon as we came out of the dungeon, a surprising scene happened.

Fairy Yunrou and Monk Zhenkong disappeared, and Qiu Zhen appeared in a bushy valley.

There is no such thing as a villa in the mountains.

Only the white fog in the distance proves that this is the location of the former mountain villa "Lou Mansion".

"I have learned the golden elixir method passed down orally by Lu Zu, and the opportunity has come."

Qiu Zhen quickly understood and was not disappointed at all.

The [Xiao Yao Jue] he obtained fully explained the wonders of the golden elixir and was far more precious than any specific secret of immortality.

This is "preaching" rather than teaching methods or techniques.

Qiu Zhen was extremely satisfied with this harvest.

The man is still in the secret realm, blocked by the secret realm barrier, and he cannot get out for a while.

Immediately, he sat cross-legged in meditation, intending to continue to comprehend and summarize his insights while waiting for Fairy Yunrou and Monk Zhenkong.

He gained a lot from comprehending Lu Zu's golden elixir.

Just when Qiu Zhen was about to calm down and enter a state of meditation, he felt a warm sensation from the [Miro Palace] in his chest.

What happened to Yunrou and the monk?

Qiu Zhen was curious and his consciousness sank into the jade talisman of [Miro Palace].

The next moment, he looked surprised.

The reason was simple. He was deep inside the [Miro Palace] and a strange fellow from the [Miro Palace] was calling him not far away.

After using his spiritual sense to investigate and hearing the voice transmission, he was even more surprised.

The other party actually called him by name.

"Fellow Daoist Qingwei, it turns out that you are also a fellow Daoist of the Miluo Palace. Let's not beat around the bush. I am Yu Chanzi, the head of the Sanxian Hall of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance and a candidate elder. Nice to meet you, fellow Daoist Qingwei."
