Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 127: The Juyuan Formation was set up overnight, and Zhongnan finally became a blessed land

He traveled all the way, crossing several provinces, and killed three great demons that were more than five hundred years old. He obtained a number of demon pills and three kinds of materials for re-training the Dragon-Swallowing Mace. The harvest was quite fruitful.

I have traveled around and around half of China, and have seen many demons harming people, but there are even more cases where the world is in chaos, people's hearts are scattered, people harm each other, and people eat each other. When humanity itself is not prosperous, demons naturally breed and run rampant.

When seeing injustice, Qiu Chuji would naturally take action to intervene. However, no matter how powerful his supernatural powers were, he could not defeat fate. He could only intervene for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Standing at the height of time, he knew that this was the birth pain before change, but when he was really in it, he understood why countless people of noble character and lofty ideals chose to die heroically.

He was able to cut off the dragon vein of the Jin Kingdom and restore the Han customs in the Central Plains, not only because of his unparalleled martial arts skills, but also because in the Central Plains, the fire of hope was extinguished and many people still wanted to drive the Jin people out and then be the masters of their own destiny.

But this world is different. People’s thoughts are scattered, and they need a fire to gather them together.

But Qiu Chuji was destined not to be able to start this fire. He was just a Taoist priest. He could take care of many things on the mountain, but he could not take care of things happening below the mountain.

As this went on, Qiu Chuji gradually became a little bored and wanted to return to his original world to practice and calm down.

The road from Golden Elixir to Yang God is not easy to walk, but as long as you accumulate practice and insights again and again, there will always be a day when you can break through it.

After talking with Lin Jiu on the phone in Hankou and learning that he had returned to Renjia Town, Qiu Chuji took a train directly to Guangzhou, got off in Guangzhou, and then rented a truck to take him to Renjia Town.

Although he could walk faster than drive a car, Qiu Chuji still preferred to take a car if he was not in a hurry. Even though the roads in that era were very bad and the ride was basically bumpy after leaving the city, this simple way of traveling still made Qiu Chuji feel that he was one of the common people, and not as if he was high and mighty.

After meeting Lin Jiu in Renjia Town Yizhuang, a novice village in many worlds, Qiu Chuji exchanged a batch of demon pills with him. He also kept some of the purified demon pills for further exchange. After offering a reward for the required demon materials, Qiu Chuji temporarily ended his journey in the zombie world and returned to his small world.

In the small world, Qiu Chuji received Mu Dao Ren from Lu Xiaofeng's world and Ning Dao Qi from The Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty. He had a brief exchange with the two Taoists, and they formed a certain bond, and then they dispersed.

As for taking the opportunity to open up a new world, don't count on it at all.

The monks who have the ability and opportunity to come here are not ordinary people and are not easily persuaded by Qiu Chuji.

Only in a special situation like Taoist Qianhe, who is in a crisis of certain death and has little hope for the future of the world, would he calmly extend an invitation to Qiu Chuji.

At present, Qiu Chuji's small world only has the ability to passively accept people, but does not have the authority to actively attract people. The randomness is too high. Even if Qiu Chuji has ten thousand ideas, they cannot be realized for the time being.

Instead, the small world used "bait" to fish for the heavens in the void, and brought back some harvest for Qiu Chuji.

The most valuable ones are the Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique, which is fished out using the 'Taiyi Sin-Removing and Demon-Slaying Protective Curse' as bait, and the Zhong Kui Ghost-Eating Diet, which is fished out using the 'Iron-Chewing Technique' as bait.

Both of these articles greatly supplement Qiu Chuji's methods and abilities.

The Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique is not only a sword technique, but also a way of nurturing sword energy, which requires a good weapon as a carrier.

This requires waiting until Qiu Chuji's Dragon-Swallowing Mace is recast before he can start practicing.

As for Zhong Kui's recipe for eating ghosts, different ghosts are classified into different categories, prepared in different ways, with different cooking ingredients and cooking techniques, and then swallowed and digested.

As long as one can resist the backlash of karma and the addition of sin, one can quickly strengthen one's own three souls and seven spirits by eating ghosts and condense the thoughts of ghosts and gods.

The strengthening of the soul should be of infinite benefit to Qiu Chuji in crossing the distance from Golden Elixir to Yang God.

Therefore, this cookbook is worth Qiu Chuji's repeated study.

After collecting his catch and re-baiting, Qiu Chuji seemed to have returned to the most familiar world, the most familiar Zhongnan Mountain, after a long absence.

At this time, the weather in this world had just turned cooler. Although there was no snow on Mount Zhongnan, frost and dew had already been seen.

In the dusk, the frost in the forest floats in the mountains and forests like a living thing.

The vitality of heaven and earth in this world is thin, like a small pond. With Qiu Chuji's current size, it seems difficult for him to turn over.

But this world still makes Qiu Chuji feel at ease.

If the small world is Qiu Chuji's foundation, then this world is his "home".

Cutting off the dragon vein of the Jin Kingdom and obtaining a massive infusion of the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth not only greatly increased Qiu Chuji's power, allowing his Yuan Qi cultivation to reach a thousand years, but also formed a closer and interdependent connection between him and the world.

This is his "home". No matter how simple or empty it is, it will not make him feel uncomfortable.

Instead, it feels indescribably comfortable.

It is different in the zombie world. No matter how rich the Yuan Qi in that world is, he is just a passer-by.

Qiu Chuji sat alone in the pavilion in the mountains, used to seeing the spring breeze and autumn moon. He did nothing but look up at the moon. The restlessness in his heart was gradually calmed down. "You're back?" Lin Xiaolan's surprised voice came from behind Qiu Chuji.

"Yes! How is life in the mountains these days?" Qiu Chuji asked Lin Xiaolan.

"My master went to Zhongdu, and there is nothing to do in the mountains. I originally planned to go down the mountain to travel... but I was worried that I didn't have the ability to do it." Lin Xiaolan lowered her head, feeling shy for some reason, and played with her fingers.

"You..." Before Lin Xiaolan could finish her next words, she heard obvious footsteps again.

The golden swallow flew over the treetops and landed on one side of the pavilion. It tilted its head and said to Lin Xiaolan, "Senior Sister! I have been looking for you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to be here."

Then he said as if he had just discovered Qiu Chuji: "Ah! So it's you who are back! Why didn't I hear those Quanzhen Taoists shouting?"

Qiu Chuji smiled and shook his head: "Okay! You guys go back and rest early!"

"By the way... I suggested to Uncle Lin before that we build some residences outside the ancient tomb. Has it been effective?"

The ancient tombs are cold and damp, and are actually not suitable for living. If you live there for a long time, as long as you are still practicing true Qi instead of true Qi, you may not feel any effects when you are young, but you will definitely suffer from a lot of illnesses when you are old.

"Yes! Master arranged for people to build several small buildings outside the ancient tomb. My sister and I usually live there. We only go back to the ancient tomb occasionally to practice." Jin Yanzi said.

She and Lin Xiaolan practiced the Jade Girl Heart Sutra together. Although they were both women and lacked the interaction between yin and yang, fortunately they were both virgins, so even their feminine energy was quite pure, so there was no problem for them to practice the Jade Girl Heart Sutra together.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Chuji said no more, took a step forward, and was already a hundred meters away.

He could sense some of the two girls' vague thoughts, but he had no intention of responding.

In his life, he is destined to have only fellow Taoists, but no love between men and women. The universe is so wonderful, it would be a waste to indulge in love between men and women.

After expressing his feelings, Qiu Chuji did not waste any time and began to bury the demon pills and arrange the formation according to the 'Ju Yuan Array' he had exchanged for.

This Yuan Gathering Formation has two effects. The first is to gather the Yuan Qi inherent in heaven and earth to form a unique secret realm and blessed land.

There are actually some such blessed places in the current world. For example, the Langhuan blessed place in Wuliang Mountain was actually a place filled with primordial Qi a long time ago. However, later man-made and natural changes destroyed the structure, causing the Qi to circulate and the blessed place to no longer exist.

For example, there is an unnamed valley deep in the Kunlun Mountains, where sweet and nutritious peaches grow and white apes that can live for a hundred years can be found. It is definitely not an ordinary place.

But this kind of blessed land still relies on the reserves of heaven and earth itself, just like a small puddle, which has shallow and deep water.

And what Qiu Chuji is setting up now is the Gathering Yuan Formation, which should actually be called the Dispersing Yuan Formation. Its main purpose is to distribute the aura in the demon pill in the Zhongnan Mountains in a way that is even, condensed, and almost does not expand outward, and slowly diffuse it, so as to make up for the deficiency of the Yuan Qi of heaven and earth.

The formation was formed with the thousand-year-old inner elixir of the Moon Wolf old monster as the core, and more than a thousand inner elixirs, most of which had been cultivated for around fifty years, as the fulcrums, gradually supporting a large formation.

In the second half of the night in Zhongnan Mountain, there was a rain that brought abundant inspiration.

The next morning, the Taoists in the mountains were pleasantly surprised to find that although it was already autumn, the leaves that had begun to turn yellow had inexplicably taken on new life, and everything seemed full of life.

After practicing in the morning class, I feel more energetic. A short moment of practice can make up for the work of several days in the past.

Dangdang Dangdang!
The big bell of Chongyang Palace was rung, and all the Taoists listened to the sound of the bell and gathered at the square.

When they saw Qiu Chuji, who had not been seen for a long time, standing at the top position, every Taoist's face showed surprise.

Although Qiu Chuji is nominally of the same generation as most of them, in reality, Qiu Chuji is already a martial arts legend, while they are still just unknown people in the world, and the gap between them is incomparable.

"Everyone! Your Senior Brother Qiu has something to say to you. Please be quiet for a moment!" The one who rang the bell and called people was Ma Yu. After Wang Chongyang went to Zhongdu to take charge of national affairs, Ma Yu became the de facto steward of Mount Zhongnan. With the improvement of his skills, his power has gradually grown in recent times. However, he himself has a calm and peaceful temperament, so people who are familiar with him cannot notice it.

Qiu Chuji stepped forward and said, "My fellow disciples! You should have sensed that today's meditation practice is more effective than before."

"That's right! I have used some special methods to transform Mount Zhongnan into the world's most prestigious paradise. If you practice in the mountains, one day's work is equivalent to several days of hard work at the foot of the mountain. If you have the right talent and can practice with concentration, you can reach the top of the martial arts world in less than ten years."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Taoists looked at each other in bewilderment, and then the square gradually became noisy.

It’s not that I don’t believe it, but this is... a little too surprising.

After all, in their view, they had just had an ordinary sleep, but early the next morning, they were told that Mount Zhongnan had become the number one paradise in the world. Who would not be surprised?
Of course, from a probabilistic point of view, once the number of top masters increases, the value of the word "top" will decrease.

Perhaps by then, today's top sects would only be worthy of being called first or second rate. But in any case, with such a new starting point, the development and growth of Quanzhen Sect would be greatly enhanced.
