Chapter 763 Secret Help
The true immortal method, especially the great method created by the Taoist ancestor, cannot be spread casually.

Even "minor techniques" (Taoist techniques that do not involve laws) require an interval of forty years or more before they can be passed on to the next generation.

The "Eight-Nine Profound Art" can only be passed on to one person every 129,600 years.

And one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred years constitutes a "yuan", a complete era.

"It's strange. What is Master Huanglong thinking? Yu Fengxian is obviously not a contented person. He is not suitable for our Chan Sect, especially not with his personality!" Erlang Shen muttered again.

Lei Zhenzi was somewhat speechless, "Brother, you were not a quiet person back then."

"She and I are different after all." Erlang Shen shook his head and said, "My conflict with the Jade Emperor has nothing to do with the Heavenly Court.

He went down to the mortal world to experience hardships and became a mortal. He became my uncle and is not the same person as the 'Jade Emperor'.

I have always been in awe of God and respect the Emperor of Heaven.

Yu Fengxian is truly lawless.

Moreover, I joined the Chan Sect because of Master’s mercy and God’s will, Yu Fengxian.”

He paused, and said thoughtfully: "Brother, I am afraid we underestimated Yu Fengxian.

She must have some background, not as simple as what we have seen so far."

Lei Zhenzi sighed, "Let's not look into her background, even if it's just what we can see now, it already shows that she is extraordinary.

This is nothing.

Among our true disciples of the Chan school, who among them does not have a divine destiny and extraordinary roots?
A truly ordinary person cannot become a disciple of the Taoist master."

He himself also has extraordinary aptitude and is a congenital thunder spirit body.

The two fairy apricots from Yun Zhongzi were just to help him develop his potential.

Erlang Shen pondered and said, "Let's not talk about the origin, let's just talk about the present. The true method obtained by Yu Fengxian is very incomplete, maybe only the general outline and the first two chapters, or even less.

If you barely cultivate the primordial energy, and just touch upon the basic principles of the method of transformation, you will not be able to truly transform. "

Lei Zhenzi glared and shouted, "Brother, are you having a brain storm? Yu Fengxian's transformation technique is so exquisite that even the demon gods and the great immortals in the sky find it difficult to distinguish.

To be honest with you, after receiving the imperial edict from the Jade Emperor asking me to strike Yu Fengxian with the divine thunder, I used my heavenly eyes to scan the world, but I couldn't find her.

Although we knew that she had started from Daiyi City and entered the Central Plains and determined the approximate range, we still couldn't find her.

I asked the clairvoyant, but he also said that he couldn't recognize it and needed the help of the talisman master and the ghosts and gods in the underworld to investigate.

Now you say she won't change?!"

Erlang Shen returned to the front hall and sat down, frowning slightly as he said, "You came down from heaven to find me because I have practiced the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts and can answer your questions based on my own experience.

What I am saying now is a theoretical judgment based on my own experience.

The discrepancy between theory and reality indicates that there are variables that we are not aware of.

Perhaps because the technique was incomplete, she created some subsequent techniques on her own, which are different from the original "Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques."

Lei Zhenzi felt it was more and more absurd. "She is just a mortal, what knowledge can she have? The Eight-Nine Mysterious Art is one of the supreme scriptures of the Chan Sect, and it is a great method created by a saint.

Even our master would find it difficult to modify a single word, so how could Yu Fengxian do that? "

Erlang Shen said: "She was able to practice part of it, at least she has read the general outline and understood the principle of changeability of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art.

It is difficult to create a follow-up method, even if it is just a tail to a tiger.

But difficult doesn’t mean impossible.”

"Okay, Yu Fengxian is a genius, and she added some parts to the original. But why is her method of transformation better than the real Eight-Nine Profound Art?" Lei Zhenzi said.

Erlang Shen pondered and said, "Her dog tail is definitely not as good as the mink tail, but the dog tail also has its own advantages.

The Eight-Nine Mysterious Art is all-encompassing; everything in the world can be changed.

Yu Fengxian may only be good at certain types of changes.

I need to observe her carefully for a few more years, and maybe meet her in person?"

He just had the idea in mind, but immediately cut it off and shook his head, saying, "Forget it. If she is the 'Flying Feather Fairy' and I meet her near Guanzhou, I will definitely take the initiative to pay her a visit.

Since it is Yu Fengxian, I will try to stay away from her until she completes her fate."

He did not intend to participate in this great catastrophe of the Qin and Han dynasties.

It's not targeting anyone in particular.

He will try his best to keep a distance from any key figures in the catastrophe to avoid being implicated and involved in the catastrophe.

"Brother, don't worry about whether her transformation technique is exquisite or not. What I mean is that the technique she obtained is incomplete." Yang Jian said.

Lei Zhenzi was stunned for a moment, then said with enlightenment: "Uncle Huang Long didn't plan to accept a disciple, he just gave away a chance to become an immortal?
But the Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts is the treasured book of my Chan Sect. If I don’t want to accept a disciple, why would I give away such a precious immortal art?"

Yang Jian said: "Master has the right to give any magic to anyone, we have no right to interfere."

Uncle Huanglong is also the third among the second generation disciples of the Chan sect.

No matter whether he is a "three-no real person" or not, his seniority and status are high enough.

He is really giving away magic power casually. Even the ancestors don’t care. So how can we, the younger generation, make a fuss?

Lei Zhenzi asked: "Then should I strike her with a sword?"

Yang Jian asked, "Have you looked for Master Huanglong?"

Lei Zhenzi had a strange expression on his face and said, "Yu Fengxian stole peaches. Such a big thing will spread throughout the three realms in a few days.

If my uncle wanted to find me, he would naturally give me a hint.

At this time, I took the initiative to find Uncle Huang Long, but it put him in a dilemma.

A small matter that was originally dealt with casually may turn into a big matter that is difficult to resolve."

Yang Jian was stunned for a moment before he reacted: the reason why Lei Zhenzi came to him was because he received an imperial decree from the Emperor of Heaven to strike Yu Fengxian with lightning, and it was difficult to find a balance between the Chan Sect and the Heavenly Court.

Even Lei Zhenzi is in trouble, so wouldn’t it be even more difficult for Master Huanglong, who is directly involved?
If Master Huanglong asked Lei Zhenzi to obey the order of the Emperor of Heaven, he would be suspected of being a coward to the Heavenly Court.

Huang Long is a second generation disciple. If he admits defeat, it is equivalent to the Chan sect admitting defeat.

If Master Huanglong asked Lei Zhenzi to openly disobey the order of the Emperor of Heaven, it would be a clear provocation to the majesty of Heaven.

Huanglong is a disciple of Daozu and can represent the Chan teaching.

The best option is for the elders who have no connection with the Heavenly Court to stay behind the scenes and let the younger generations who work in the Heavenly Court do the work.

Even if the younger generations did the wrong thing, it can be attributed to their poor "professional skills" rather than the attitude and stance of the Chan sect towards the Heavenly Court.

Yang Jian asked again: "What was the reason for the Emperor of Heaven to strike Yu Fengxian with lightning? How severe was the punishment?"

"Yu Fengxian is very smart. She didn't steal peaches directly from the Peach Garden."

Before coming, Lei Zhenzi really investigated the matter thoroughly.

After recounting the details to his "Second Brother", he concluded: "Dongfang Shuo's guilt is irrefutable and he has been sentenced to three years of hard labor.

Theoretically, it would be impossible to return to the human world within a thousand years.

I don’t know whether the Queen Mother will forgive him after the great catastrophe of heaven and earth is over.

Since he had already pleaded guilty, the "Pantao Garden Peaches Stealing Case" was naturally settled.

The case that has been settled cannot be used to try Yu Fengxian again.

Therefore, the Emperor of Heaven only charged her with the crimes of "disrupting the Peach Feast" and "going against the will of heaven", and punished her with the "disaster of becoming an immortal".

Yang Jian said: "After taking away the fortune of heaven and earth, invading the mysteries of the sun and moon, and changing fate against the will of heaven to achieve an immortal body, one should be tested by the three disasters. But the three disasters test should be carried out five hundred years after becoming an immortal. Yu Fengxian is only in her early twenties now, it is too early."

Lei Zhenzi said: "If the three disasters were natural, how can they be considered a punishment from the Emperor of Heaven?

She is also stubborn.

All the gods in Shenzhou wanted to plead for her, and the Jade Emperor also tacitly allowed Zhang Tianshi to secretly pass the message to the human world.

But Yu Fengxian even refused to become a naturalized citizen of West Kunlun.

Maybe she is thinking of escaping through Kunlun Dragon Qi again and entering the Peach Garden to steal the fruit."

Yang Jian said: "If it was just the normal Three Calamities Thunder, it shouldn't have killed her.

She doesn’t have much karma and cause and effect, but she has a lot of merit.”

Lei Zhenzi sighed, "Brother, now is the time of great calamity of heaven and earth.

She interfered with the normal operation of the catastrophe of heaven and earth.

According to the original destiny, a large area of ​​land in the northern border of China will fall into the hands of the barbarians.

Simply put, not only would Xiu Ge and the King of Donghu not be completely wiped out, they would not even be driven out of the Great Wall.

When Zhang Yuan's letter for help was sent to Northern Juluzhou, a large number of demons, half-demons and even evil cultivators of the human race went to Zuoguli Wang's tribe to help. A few months later, when the temperature warmed up, they directly plundered the northern border and were unmatched.

Millions of Chinese people were ravaged for decades, corpses piled up like mountains, blood flowed like seas, and the north was filled with the stench of the barbarians.

This is destiny.

But after Yu Fengxian's actions, the Hu people's alliance's overall strategy has changed, and this day is almost over."

Yang Jian frowned and asked, "What do you mean by almost gone? Will it really go away?"

"Brother, this is not the point." Lei Zhenzi waved his hand and shouted, "The point is that Yu Fengxian greatly interfered with the destiny during the great catastrophe of heaven and earth, and all the causes and effects involved in her body were transformed into catastrophe energy!

Even if she has merits, how can merits eliminate cause and effect and calamity?
During the medieval times when the gods were conferred upon us, who among our uncles and uncles lacked merit?

My master is still a 'Blessed Immortal', and he still joins the game."

His master, Yun Zhongzi, was an immortal of great blessings and virtue. He entered the Ten Absolute Formations and was not cut off the three flowers on the top of his head by the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation, but Yun Zhongzi still participated in the Conferred God Tribulation.

Not only did he send his disciples to take the blame for him, he also burned Grand Master Wen Zhong to death with his own hands. As a result, after the Conferred Gods Conferred, his disciples went to work for Wen Zhong.
After all, the immortals' blessings to the world and accumulation of merits are only their duties towards heaven and earth and towards human beings (the protagonists of heaven and earth representing the will of heaven) after enjoying the bliss of eternal life.

You should not receive any extra rewards for doing your duty.

If you want to avoid being contaminated by calamity, you must follow the will of heaven, stop making unnecessary troubles, interfere less with the normal operation of human affairs, and create less cause and effect.

There is no doubt that Xiaoyu only seeks to avenge himself and is unwilling to follow his fate. He also likes to make trouble and brings himself to cause trouble.

If not, there are many celestial immortals, mysterious immortals, and golden immortals in the world who are stronger than her. Why would they rather cheer for her in the Lingxiao Palace than take action themselves?

Yang Jian said: "It concerns the life and death of millions of people in Shenzhou. The northern border is stained with the smell of barbarians, which is also the key point."

"Second brother, this is destiny, we can't change anything!" Lei Zhenzi sighed.

Yang Jian said quietly, "I would also like to plead for it! We dare not interfere, but if someone is brave enough to take the initiative to do it, we should at least help and say a few words."

Lei Zhenzi shook his head and said, "It's too late, too late, the imperial edict has already come down.

The Jade Emperor's words are the will of heaven."

The Jade Emperor is not equal to "God", but after the Jade Emperor sits on the throne of the Lingxiao Palace and is given power, he can represent "God".

At this time, the Jade Emperor, who has become one with God, speaks words that represent the will of heaven.

Because the Jade Emperor in this state represents God, he cannot allow his personified self to vent his emotions at will. The more he looks like a person, the less he looks like "God", and the greater the gap between him and authority.

Do you want God’s power and supreme status, or do you want to vent your emotions briefly and let your thoughts flow?
It is difficult to reconcile the two because the direction of personal emotions is likely to be contrary to God's will.

The Jade Emperor made his choice. He chose power and status rather than the promotion of his own humanity.

But once the Jade Emperor finds a legitimate reason, that is, his human desires coincide with the will of heaven, he will be firm and resolute and unable to disobey.

To disobey him is to disobey the will of heaven; to oppose him is to oppose the Pangu world.

At least for Lei Zhenzi and Yang Jian, it is difficult to defy fate, the cost is too high, and the success rate is extremely low.

"Besides, if you ask for mercy, Yu Fengxian will appreciate it." Lei Zhenzi continued, "She is so stubborn! The Jade Emperor was persuaded by the fairies and was willing to give her a chance to go to Yaochi to be a jade maiden in the orchard.

Zhang Taibao from Taiyi Dao went to look for her.

She was very arrogant, saying that she just wanted to have a clear conscience and not be afraid of retribution!"

Yang Jian asked again: "Is the calamity energy on Yu Fengxian heavy?"

Lei Zhenzi sighed, "She has a lot of merits, but the calamity is even heavier, enough to kill her, so I am in a dilemma."

If he couldn't kill anyone with his sword, he wouldn't have come to find Yang Jian at all.

“Just the fact that she knows the Eight-Nine Profound Art is enough to show that she has a close relationship with our Chan Sect. Besides, she suffered this disaster not because of any evil deeds, you can’t just kill her with a chop!” Yang Jian said.

Lei Zhenzi asked, "What did the Jade Emperor say?"

Yang Jian pondered and said, "Can you find her approximate location? Before the thunder strikes, I will give her an opportunity. When you strike her with thunder, don't hold back."

Lei Zhenzi was surprised and asked, "Second brother wants to help her complete the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills"?"

Yang Jian shook his head and said, "If Master Huanglong has the order, I will definitely be willing to pass on the Dharma to her.

Now without the instructions of my uncle-master, how dare I act on my own?

It's just about overcoming the three disasters of thunder. Once you have mastered the little tricks, you don't have to learn the entire "Eight-Nine Mysterious Arts."

Lei Zhenzi hesitated and said: "Second brother has extraordinary magical powers. It may not be difficult for him to give her some advice and help her get through this disaster.

But I’m afraid I can’t keep it secret from the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.”

Yang Jian smiled and said, "Don't accuse me of following orders but not decrees. I don't need to listen to what they say.

Even if I really want to do something, with my methods, I won’t leave any obvious evidence.”

Lei Zhenzi said: "Yu Fengxian transformed into someone else, and I couldn't find her for a while.

All we know for sure is that she had just left Daiyi City a few days ago and was heading south.

However, when her calamity energy explodes and is about to trigger the three disasters of thunder and lightning, I will be able to sense it."

Yang Jian frowned and said, "When the thunder tribulation is about to start, it will be a little late. I won't have time to arrange the 'Immortal Fate'."

"She doesn't show up, so I can't find her. What we want to do is not tolerated by the Heavenly Court, so we can't ask ghosts and gods for help in a big way." Lei Zhenzi said helplessly.

Yang Jian narrowed his eyes slightly and kept calculating with his right hand.

After about a quarter of an hour, he slowly said, "Brother, you can go back. I have a plan. Maybe we can do it secretly, so that the Emperor of Heaven and the Queen Mother can't catch us."

Lei Zhenzi was surprised and asked, "What strategy is so powerful?"

Yang Jian smiled and shook his head, "Don't tell me, it won't work if I tell you."

Lei Zhenzi said: "I don't ask about strategies, I just want to know what I should do after the thunder punishment is triggered."

“No matter whether she got the ‘immortal fate’ at that time or not, you must obey the Jade Emperor’s order and do your best without holding back,” Yang Jian said.

Lei Zhenzi hesitated and said, "What if Yu Fengxian still can't hold on?"

"Well, we want to help her and we have tried our best. What happens next depends on her own luck." Yang Jian sighed.
