This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 158 Where is the Ascension Passage?

In order to help Xiang Yuan fulfill his wish, Master Bai Yue was willing to play the good cop, and when she saw that Master Zixu had fallen into the trap, she brought up the matter of accepting disciples on behalf of the master.

In a word, don’t even think about it, you young man, you are already mine!

True Man Zixu understood the reason, but with such a good talent in martial arts, it would be a pity not to go to Wudang Mountain.

It would be fine if he didn’t know, but now that he knows, he must fight for it.

"Wise disciple..."

"Master, this is my junior fellow nun!"

You, nun, talk too much nonsense. Just wait and see what I can do. I can use a little trick to abduct you to Wudang Mountain.

Zhenren Zixu is full of confidence in the inheritance of his own sect. When it comes to martial arts in the world, everyone knows Wudang, Shaolin, and Emei. There are several good inheritances. Then, what else can compare with Wudang?
Are there more female disciples than Wudang?
It's useless. The quarrels between the girls will only interfere with their martial arts practice.
True Man Zixu believed that as long as he could reason with Xiang Yuan and appeal to his emotions, and demonstrate some of his skills, Xiang Yuan would clearly see the gap in foundation between Emei and Wudang, and would naturally make a wise choice.

"My dear disciple, the nun is making unreasonable arguments. I cannot argue with her, as it would ruin the tranquility of Shaolin Temple. Let us pretend that we do not know each other for now. I call you my little friend, so please do not blame me for being heartless."

True Man Zixu sighed, looking helpless as if a master and disciple were meeting but were stopped by a nun.

If it weren't for the fact that his face didn't resemble the heartless Taoist priest at all, and they were definitely not the same person from two different worlds, Xiang Yuan wouldn't feel wronged to call him Master given his shameless attitude.

"My friend, have you encountered any confusion during these years of learning Wudang Kung Fu?" Master Zixu smiled slightly, waiting for Xiang Yuan to take the bait.

"I'm ashamed to say that regarding the body-protecting Qi..."

Xiang Yuan was halfway through his words when he turned to look at Master Bai Yue: "Senior Sister, is it appropriate for me to ask Master about these things?"

"Of course not..."

"Of course it's appropriate!"

Zixu Zhenren interrupted directly, grabbed Xiang Yuan and walked to the corner, muttering: "The secret of Wudang cannot be heard by the Emei nun, let's talk aside."

As he walked, he gestured to Yunhe and Zhuyan to block Master Baiyue.

The two Taoist priests were extremely embarrassed, and they stood side by side to cover their master as he left. Seeing that Master Bai Yue's face was as cold as ice, they immediately looked bitter and thought to themselves, Master, don't blame me, the master has always been like this, and he has a brain attack from time to time.

"Wudang is really good at scheming. Seeing that my junior fellow nun has extraordinary talent, they blatantly snatched her away."

After performing the whole scene, Master Bai Yue left with her apprentice Ji Muqing, leaving with a word of disdain. When she turned around, she glanced at Xiang Yuan's back and wished him a successful start and all his wishes come true.

Senior sisters of this age are no longer green and are really good at taking care of people.

On the other side of the corner, Master Zixu learned that Xiang Yuan was lacking in the method of protecting his body with Qi, and after a moment's hesitation he told him about the Wudang School's method of refining Qi.

The Dragon Subduing Realm was ingenious in its research on the body-protecting Qi, and had come up with a new trick that the Abyss Realm didn't have, creating a path that belonged to them alone. It wasn't exactly brilliant, but it was simply a summary of the ancestors of past generations, who had overcome one level after another by accumulating knowledge over time.

Essentially, things that everyone has have already been spread around and cannot be considered secrets.

If I have to say, the famous sects have more thorough research on details and their protective qi is more lifelike because there are many senior masters.

For example, Shaolin and Wudang, if you don't know their posture, you would really think that once they unleash their inner energy, they can summon gods and Buddhas to descend to the world.

True Man Zixu was intent on fishing and did not consider the sunk costs, so he made a heavy nest. While he was explaining the method of refining the vital energy, his expression changed drastically, as if he had revealed some huge secret.

Xiang Yuan saw a line of words on his complex face and translated it: I shouldn't have taught you my unique skills without permission. It's because you have an indissoluble bond with Wudang. Today, I'm going to make a decision that goes against my ancestors' teachings and teach you step by step. I hope you will cherish it, visit Wudang Mountain more often, and don't fall for the nun's beauty trap.

Master!

He can write a paragraph with just one expression, what a master!

Xiang Yuan said he had learned it, and was curious in his heart. Shaolin and Wudang were the two best in the world, and if the head of Wudang was in such a state, what about the abbot of Shaolin? Would it be true as the rumors said that if one offended the abbot, he would not be able to leave?

……

That night, Xiang Yuan sat cross-legged in the room, following the method of refining the inner energy taught by Immortal Zixu. He arranged the strength of the opening of the acupoints and combined the appearance of the protective inner energy that he liked.

The first choice for a calm person is a tiger, and the first choice for a cold-blooded person is a sea of ​​blood.

Doubi's thoughts were complicated. At first, he thought about the white-robed emperor holding a sword in all directions, but then he thought about playing with a knife, so he gave up the long sword. He made some changes to the design and thought it would be nice to put a few big flags behind him, so he made some more changes...

Because they were all too greedy, the emperor who planted the flag was changed to have a long sword in his hand, his left foot on the cloud, his right foot on the lotus, a knife stuck in his chest, and a Fang Tian Hua Ji on his back.

"What the hell is this? It wasted half of my time..." The funny guy started over again and had a lot of fun playing by himself.

The Wudang sect's method of refining the inner energy is a great skill in the Dragon Subduing Realm. In the Qianyuan Realm, when the innate ability is promising, no one cares about the shape of the inner energy. As long as it can be rolled into a big ball, it's fine as long as it can be used.

But Xiang Yuan doesn't think so. Being handsome is a lifelong thing. The protective qi can be used not only in the foundation-building period, but also after the innate period. It will do no harm to hone it well.

Furthermore, what is powerful is not the martial arts method, but the person who practices it.

During the day, there were several masters present whose realm was slightly higher than his, but in terms of the thickness of their true energy and the strength of their souls, they were several times inferior to him.

They came up with new tricks to use the protective qi technique. They were limited by the heaven and earth qi of the Dragon Subduing Realm, and could only do so many tricks. But when it came to Xiang Yuan's hands, he was not only able to come up with new tricks, but also to carry it forward.

I am so confident whether it is turned on or off!
No, this is the foundation of the Qianyuan Realm from a high vantage point!
There was nothing to say all night, and it was dawn the next day.

Master Bai Yue pushed open the door and saw Xiang Yuan sitting cross-legged on the bed, having practiced hard all night without rest. She admired him but also felt distressed for him, so she personally fetched a basin of water for him to wash.

Yes, they live in one room.

To be precise, Xiang Yuan, Master Bai Yue, and Ji Mucheng lived in one room.

The Shaolin Temple had a limited number of rooms for entertaining distinguished guests, so Xiang Yuan squeezed in with the master and his disciple. He lived in the outer room, while the master and his disciple lived in the inner room.

Ji Mucheng got dressed and got up. He pushed the door open and saw his uncle sitting cross-legged on the bed. His master was wiping his face with a wet towel, and his expression suddenly became strange.

has a problem!
There is a question about a master who is preparing to return to secular life!

Xiang Yuan also felt that there was a problem. It was a good thing that the senior sister was caring for others, but she was too caring. What if she slipped into his life if he wasn't careful?
To avoid embarrassment, he said nothing and pretended to be immersed in cultivation, completely unaware of the outside world. He did not wake up from his cultivation until Master Bai Yue finished her work.

"Sister, you came just in time. I just woke up and have a few questions for you." "No hurry. The kitchen will deliver the food. We can talk while we eat."

Nun Bai Yue tried to persuade Xiang Yuan a few times, saying that the way of martial arts is to combine work and rest, and that blindly seeking speed will only harm oneself. Fearing that Xiang Yuan would not listen, she repeated it twice.

Senior sister, you don’t understand. It’s because I’m going too fast that I have to stay up all night to speed up!

Xiang Yuan did not explain and looked like he was willing to learn humbly. When Ji Mucheng brought the vegetarian meal from Shaolin Temple, he realized that the monks from the Dragon Subduing Realm ate meat, and the nun did too.

Come to think of it, for people who practice martial arts, external supplements are indispensable. The alchemy of the Dragon Subduing Realm has its shortcomings. Without external supplements, the monks won't even have the strength to fight. How can they convince people with reason and persuade the devil to give up his evil?

As expected of the Shaolin Temple's kitchen, the pork elbow in soy sauce was cooked really well, but the portion was a little small. Xiang Yuan was not satisfied and took out a fasting pill to add to his meal.

For several days, Xiang Yuan was obsessed with modeling the protective qi. It was not until Master Bai Yue reminded him that he remembered that he was here to watch the ascension ceremony. He followed the large group and, under the guidance of Abbot Laofan, headed for the back mountain of Shaolin Temple.

The abbot's ascension is the top priority of Shaolin Temple right now, and it must not be missed. Today, Hongyuan Mountain is under martial law and all outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering.

On the way to the back mountain, there was a guard every three steps and a sentry every five steps, and the security was extremely strict. The monks walked back and forth, their eyes were like torches, their spirit lights were like torches, and together they formed a large golden light formation, which was the kind that could move, shaking and making Xiang Yuan grin.

Who can perform the Sun Fist? Is this the Eighteen Bronze Men?

Arriving at the forbidden area behind the mountain, Xiang Yuan's eyes suddenly opened up and a relatively open square came into view. The ground was paved with bluestone, and there were many pagodas built around it. The texture was heavy and the surface was covered with moss, giving it a calm and solemn look that had been weathered for a long time.

In the center of the square, an old monk in a simple robe sits on a cushion.

The old monk has a kind face, with years carving deep wrinkles on his face. His eyes are half closed, as if he is in deep thought or meditating, as if he has merged with the surrounding environment, giving people a feeling of being detached from the world.

He is the protagonist of this ascension, Shaolin Abbot Lechen.

To be precise, it was the previous abbot who, due to his ascension, could not stay in the human world for long, so he passed the position of abbot to the head of Dharma Academy, Le Yuan.

The current abbot Le Yuan, the head monk of the Reception Hall Le Fan, and other high-ranking monks of the Le generation were all present. There were seven or eight bald men, all of them were masters. Any one of them was at the level of the three best masters of Emei. In terms of foundation, Emei is indeed far inferior to Shaolin.

The people watching the ceremony sat down in order. Master Bai Yue got a cushion near the front, and Xiang Yuan sat between the master and his disciple.

He took a look and saw that when Master Bai Yue sat down, her loose clothes were stretched straight, her shoulders were slender, her hips were plump, and her curves were like a gourd...

Bah, that’s not what he was looking at. His eyes passed over Master Bai Yue and looked at Chen.

It seems that the abbot is a person who knows how to create a good atmosphere. If there is a Bodhi tree with a solemn appearance, perhaps relics will explode on the spot.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Lechen sat in meditation the whole time. If it were not for his breathing, and the sound of wind chimes on the pagoda swaying every time he exhaled and breathed, Xiang Yuan would have thought he was just like Senior Zombie.

So slow!
Where is the ascension channel? Is it in the wrong place?

Xiang Yuan secretly thought it was boring, but he also knew that Liaochen had some feelings in his heart. The specific time of his ascension to the upper realm today was not up to Liaochen.

hold on.

In the field, eminent monks were chanting scriptures silently. The group of martial arts masters who came to watch the ceremony did not speak, for fear of disturbing Chen's peace. They watched with bated breath, trying to glimpse the legendary innate realm through the changes in Chen's breath.

There is no innate cultivation technique in the Dragon Subduing Realm. It ends at the foundation building stage, and once you reach the innate stage, you will ascend. Therefore, there are no innate masters who have explored on their own and left behind any techniques to pass on.

This is also the reason why it is difficult to find innate talents in the Dragon Subduing Realm. There is a lack of systematic exercises, and in the later stages of foundation building, most people have to explore on their own, or refer to the experience and insights left by the predecessors of the mountain gate.

"Amitabha!"

An unknown amount of time had passed. As the sun was setting, Xiang Yuan could almost see calluses on Master Bai Yue's butt. Only then did Le Chen murmur a Buddhist name in a low voice.

He slowly stood up and looked up at the sky with a smile on his face: "Thank you all for coming to watch the ceremony. I am deeply sorry for having to wait for so long. The auspicious time has arrived, and it is now."

Everyone looked up at the sky, and Xiang Yuan also looked up.

Nothing.

Again, where is the ascension channel? Is it in the wrong place?

This thing can't possibly cause traffic jams, right?

Taking into account the possibility that Chen might suddenly disappear, Xiang Yuan looked up to the sky and then to the ground, vowing to see the path to ascension clearly.

When he was undercover in the forbidden area of ​​the Heavenly Demon Sect, he heard very clearly that the old man Tianshe said that the upper realm had a zero-tolerance attitude towards the demons and only accepted human cultivators to ascend. Once the demons went up, they would be beaten to death on the spot.

Xiang Yuan likes this setting very much. Although there is a shortage of people above, the threshold for ascension has been lowered and people can go to heaven by nature. However, the necessary moral integrity is still there and no quota for the demons has been expanded.

After watching for five minutes, Xiang Yuan couldn't help it. It was as calm as a breeze. Nothing happened. Lechen did not disappear on the spot, and the ascension channel did not appear.

No way, the ascension is delayed?
With so many martial arts masters watching, it would be a lot of fun if there was a delay.

In line with the principle of "watching the fun while getting involved", Xiang Yuan was quite looking forward to it.

Can't fly!
Can't fly!
But soon, he found something wrong...

The surroundings were quiet. Black mist was emanating from Master Bai Yue in front. On both sides, the dignitaries who came to watch the ceremony had ferocious brows, as if they were possessed and were struggling with the evil thoughts in their hearts.

Oh no! Shaolin Temple is a traitor and has sided with the demons!
There was also demonic energy emanating from Xiang Yuan's body, but not much. He squinted his eyes and looked around, and found that a row of senior monks were also struggling.

The only one who was not troubled by the evil spirit was the protagonist Lechen who ascended to heaven today.

"Time, fate, and God are on my side!"

Lechen's laughter was hoarse at first, then became ferocious and fierce. His body twisted, and in the horrified eyes of everyone, he turned into a blue-haired demon with horns on his head.

The leader of the Wujian Demon Cult is Vinayawen!
