Poor Taoist Qiu Chuji

Chapter 140: Cultivation on the mountain, turmoil outside the mountain

This time, Qiu Chuji also did not stay in the zombie world for long. He stayed there for about one or two months and then returned to his own world.

Although after eating ghosts, the accumulated evil thoughts and distracting ideas can be "digested" by condensing demon seeds and then expelling the demon seeds, but those evil thoughts and distracting ideas have existed in the brain after all, and it is impossible for them to have no effect at all. Qiu Chuji needs to slow down first and consolidate his foundation... so that he can eat more in one go in the future.

Until one day, I can be like Zhong Kui, opening my mouth wide and letting hundreds of ghosts enter my stomach. With just some strong liquor, it will be a delicious meal.

After his return, Qiu Chuji still lived a secluded life. In addition to practicing martial arts, sorting out his internal and external skills, the art of talismans, and methods of spiritual training, he also systematically integrated what he had learned and knew, and led a line out of it.

Systematically organize these abilities and methods, and compile the foundation and context of one's own martial arts in an easy-to-understand manner.

Qiu Chuji should have done such a thing a long time ago. After all, Wang Chongyang, Lin Chaoying and even Huang Yaoshi all went through this.

It's just that Qiu Chuji has been moving too fast along the way, and has little time to think and reflect, so he has not reached this step yet.

Of course... with Qiu Chuji's current accumulation and foundation, if he were to organize and summarize his own system, it would be absolutely different from that of Wang Chongyang, Lin Chaoying and others.

From the very beginning, the goal is to achieve longevity, which makes it many times more difficult. However, the spiritual feedback after the achievement will be more obvious and abundant.

However, while having lofty intentions, it also has to be practical, so that "ordinary people" who don't have golden fingers or absolute talent can also enter the house and catch a glimpse of the skylight. This is the first difficulty in Qiu Chuji's series of compilations.

The so-called return to basics requires not only simplicity but also the truth that leads directly to the great road.

Without this truth, simplicity becomes vulgarity.

For example, a unique internal martial art like the Reversed Yin-Yang and Six-Combinations Divine Art, not to mention its own incompleteness, its threshold is enough to stop more than 99% of the masters in the world.

The 'Quanzhen Dao Song' that Quanzhen Sect is currently passing down does have some truth to it, because although its threshold is not high and the progress of practice is not fast, as long as one can persevere, as one grows older and becomes more powerful, one will be able to practice faster and stronger.

It perfectly illustrates that at the age of 20, I was like a minion, but at the age of 60, I was able to look down on everyone.

But the idea of ​​leaving everything to time in "The Song of Quanzhen Dao" is still not enough for Qiu Chuji.

The life of a mortal is limited.

If one starts practicing in his teens and only gains something in his sixties or seventies, it is just a glimpse of the future, but he is already on the eve of his qi and blood declining and his energy and energy running out. Isn't it better not to see anything?

Under the innate diagram, Qiu Chuji sat cross-legged in meditation, and circles of water ripples appeared above his primordial spirit, which had already taken shape.

Ding Dong...Ding Dong...Ding Dong!

It's like the sound of inspiration knocking on the soul again and again.

Something more flexible, more abundant and more suitable for promotion is brewing and will be revealed.

······
The clouds and fog on Mount Zhongnan seem to never dissipate.

However, these clouds will not make this blessed land full of spiritual energy fall into a cold and damp situation.

Because most of those clouds are no longer condensed water vapor, but are truly the primordial Qi of heaven and earth.

More than a thousand purified demon pills formed the Yuan Ju Array, and its effect was astonishing.

To be honest, with the current number of Quanzhen Taoists, they simply cannot digest the daily output of Yuanqi.

Not even one percent can be consumed, and the overflowing Yuan Qi of heaven and earth will not dissipate. Instead, ninety-nine percent of it condenses between the mountains and rivers, turning into lingering clouds and mist, subtly changing the mountains, rivers, and plants here, making everything full of spirituality.

Everything living here, whether it is animals or plants, will gradually undergo some changes.

After a period of fermentation, the changes in Mount Zhongnan have gradually become known to many people.

Almost everyone in the martial arts world knows that Taoist Qiu Chuji, who possesses supernatural powers, used his magical powers to turn Mount Zhongnan into a paradise on earth.

Practicing inner strength in Mount Zhongnan is at least equivalent to dozens of days in the outside world for one day. If one is lucky enough to find a treasure land where Qi is gathered and spirits are stored, one can make rapid progress. This is especially beneficial for breaking through barriers.

As a result, many people in the martial arts world began to think about it and tried their best to get a piece of the pie.

If they were asked to come and seize Zhongnan Mountain directly, they obviously did not have the courage to do so.

But all kinds of tricks never cease.

Some of them tried to buy or rent land on Mount Zhongnan to occupy some space for practicing internal skills or recuperating. Some of them used unorthodox methods to find the land deeds of the previous dynasty, which were not sure whether they were real or fake, and then took them to Quanzhen Sect to make trouble and demand that Quanzhen Sect return their ancestral land.

The more arrogant ones use gold and silver to open the way, and stay in Zhongnan Mountain in the name of offering incense and reciting Taoist scriptures. They don’t read much Taoist scriptures every day, but their internal strength improves rapidly.

Of course, these trivial matters would not come to Qiu Chuji's attention.

Today's Quanzhen Sect has the new dynasty as its foundation, and Qiu Chuji, a transcendent being, as its backer. If the Taoists in charge of specific matters cannot handle these trivial matters, or sell out the interests of the sect in order to keep the peace and exchange for personal benefits, Ma Yu and others who are already able to stand on their own will let them know what means are used.

"Brother! There are fellow martial artists who want to communicate with us, or exchange disciples with us, or simply want to divide a piece of land on each other's mountain tops as a base for communication and learning..." Hao Datong took a stack of visiting cards from fellow martial artists and handed them to Ma Yu.

Ma Yu rubbed his brows with a headache, looked at his junior brother who also had a tired look in his eyes, and waved his hand: "It's still the old way. We can put the matter on hold on the grounds that we have no right to decide, or let them go directly to Master and Junior Brother Qiu."

"Well... this is the only way!" Hao Datong nodded in agreement. Obviously, he also knew that there was no better way at the moment.

The Quanzhen Sect is an orthodox Taoist sect and an authentic Xuanmen sect. Although it does not mean that they will allow others to bully them or fight back, if someone comes to ask for money under a high-sounding reason, they cannot just attack and kill them.

"Brother! Last night, we caught a few fellow martial artists who sneaked up the mountain. They confessed their actions... What should we do now?" Liu Chuxuan also came to report the situation at this time.

It's still the same principle. It's just sneaking into the mountains. To be honest, what's the sin?
You can't kill him, right?

These guys who sneaked up the mountain are very smart!
Not only do they not destroy the vegetation and trees on the mountain, they all bring their own bedding and tents, and they eat pickles and steamed buns brought up from the foot of the mountain. Their life is even more frugal than that of ascetic monks. There is really no reason to give people any reason to get angry.

The Quanzhen Sect disciple who was originally responsible for handling the matter, because he had not yet come to his senses, actually chose to temporarily detain the fellow martial artists who had sneaked up the mountain in a cave... This really made these people happy.

After being locked up for ten days or half a month and then released, they were not only still brave enough, but also more excited.

Nowadays, the cave prison on the mountain of Quanzhen Sect is a great place that everyone in the martial arts world is eager to visit.

Being locked up there for half a month is equivalent to one or two years of hard training outside. After a trip in there, the gangsters will directly become the backbone of the gang.

"I do have an idea, which Qi Ji told me yesterday." Wang Chuyi, who had been standing aside but had not spoken, spoke after thinking it over.

"Junior brother, just say whatever you want to say. We are brothers and there is nothing to be taboo about." Ma Yu said immediately.

Wang Chu nodded and said, "Qi Ji reminded me that it is better to open up than to block."

"Since we can't stop it, let's just make a breakthrough."

"We will hold a youth martial arts competition at the foot of the mountain. It will be held every three months. The top ten contestants can enter the mountain to practice for half a year and can choose to become outer disciples of our Quanzhen Sect."

After hearing this, Ma Yu's eyes suddenly brightened: "Junior brother... this method is very wonderful!"

What's the beauty of it?

The first is to recruit talents from all over the world to serve Quanzhen.

No matter what people in the martial arts world say, strength is ultimately what matters. This is especially true after Qiu Chuji's series of heroic deeds, as the world's desire for martial arts has grown stronger.

If the Quanzhen Sect opens up places for people to practice in the mountains, then all the young talents, no matter which sect or school they come from, will try every means to come and participate. Although it is not a mandatory requirement to join the Quanzhen Sect as an outer disciple, after enjoying the abundant Yuan Qi for half a year, how many people can bear to go back to the tight and hard life outside?
Most of them will join the Quanzhen sect.

If things go on like this, other sects in the martial arts world, in order to ensure the continuity of their orthodoxy, will also spontaneously find ways to prevent talented disciples from coming to participate in the competitions.

Secondly, these outer disciples, after going through layers of screening and experiencing the disappointment of their former teachers and elders and the scorn of their fellow disciples, chose to join the Quanzhen Sect and become Quanzhen outer disciples. They would subconsciously protect their hard-earned "privileges". In their eyes, those who sneaked into the mountains became extremely evil and were targets to be attacked with all their might.

If these outer disciples go too far, Quanzhen Sect has its own rules to punish them.

If word gets out, it won't be that Quanzhen Sect has failed to teach well. After all, these people came to the sect with skills and are not direct descendants of Quanzhen.

If Qiu Chuji was here at this moment and listened to the method proposed by Wang Chuyi, he would immediately think of this familiarity, this sense of déjà vu...isn't it the evolution process of overseas students to overseas Chinese in the 1980s and 1990s?
"Do I need to ask Master... or Senior Brother Qiu?" Wang Chuyi was still a little unsure. After all, although this method was good, there were some tricks that were not so "above board".

Ma Yu shook his head and smiled, "There's no need to be like this. We are managing a sect that is growing day by day. It's impossible for everything to be good and fragrant. There are always some bad and smelly ones. As long as we keep a righteous heart and don't fall into evil ways, it's reasonable to have some means."

He knew that neither Wang Chongyang nor Qiu Chuji would object to his decision.

At that time, Wang Chongyang and Qiu Chuji coaxed people from the martial arts world to attack Chang'an City. To be honest, their tactics were more sophisticated.
