The Great Way to Truth, Starting from Jiazi Laodao

Chapter 14 Half-demon, thank you, Senior Brother

Go to the temple and look under the old pine tree.

A young nun with bright eyes and white teeth sat cross-legged.

On the stone bench, Xuanming was reading the scriptures.

The journey of the sun and the moon, if out of it.

The stars are brilliant, if they are out of it.

As the sun rose in the east and the waning moon set in the west, the nun who had been sitting cross-legged finally moved.

A mountain breeze suddenly blew up, shaking the pine treetops.

The branches and leaves swayed and rustled.

With the Daoist Academy as the center, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged like a tidal wave and flowed into Changning's body.

The morning light and the night sky, the sun and the moon shine together.

Between heaven and earth, the yin and yang energies are dense and evaporate briefly.

The two supreme stars simultaneously dropped a ray of energy, one gold and one silver, which revolved around Changning and was absorbed by him.

Click, click!
Something is broken inside.

Changning's aura continued to rise.

When she was about to enter the second realm, her brows suddenly frowned, and fine beads of cold sweat appeared on her fair forehead. She seemed to be in great pain and her body trembled slightly.

But he did not stop practicing, nor did he give up on breaking through. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain, continuing to draw on the Yin and Yang spiritual energy.

Although he was young, he was determined.

Click, click!
More shattering sounds were heard.

Putting down the scriptures, Xuanming frowned slightly.

There was indeed something strange about little Changning.

It seems that a seal is being broken.

The routes of the Yin and Yang spiritual energy are also slightly different, as if there are two meridian systems in operation.

One absorbs yang energy, the other absorbs yin energy.

Then follow the principle of the mutual generation and restraint of yin and yang, operate at the same time, constantly collide, and in the process offset the contradictory things in the body, seek common ground while reserving differences, blend with each other and yet remain separate.

Yin and Yang are forming a delicate balance with a mysterious trajectory. As for whether it can succeed, it depends on Changning's perseverance and his attainments in the Yin and Yang foundation.

Click, click!
The sound of breaking was endless.

It can even be transmitted directly from the body to the outside.

As the seal was broken, a special aura emanated from Changning's body, a mixture of clear and turbid energy.

Xuanming's expression changed.

At this moment, all previous doubts were resolved.

He knew why Chang Ning had not entered the second realm in fifteen years, why there was a seal on her body, and why she had two meridian systems.

Because she is a human...

A half-demon!!!
Besides reading the sutras, in order to change his mind, Xuanming would read some miscellaneous books to increase his knowledge and pass the time: he read books on geography, historical records, medical classics, ancient legends, etc., with a wide range of content and a wide variety of types.

Since I'm just looking around, I naturally don't care.

Because of this, he knew something about half-demons.

This kind of existence is neither a demon nor a human, but it is both a human and a demon. It is a special kind of existence in the world.

It is not easy for a half-demon to be born, and it is even more difficult for him to embark on the path of cultivation.

Apart from the fact that he is not accepted by the world and is despised by all parties, the more important reason is that he possesses both demonic veins and human connections.

The two meridians are like water and fire, conflicting with each other and incompatible. This leads to a significant reduction in the average lifespan of half-demons and makes it difficult for them to achieve success in their cultivation.

Throughout the ages, half-demons who have embarked on the path of cultivation are rare, and even fewer who have been able to successfully establish a foundation.

"The laws of nature are unpredictable, and the world is ever-changing."

“I never thought the truth would be like this.”

Xuanming stroked his beard and sighed.

No wonder Chang Ning made up for the congenital defects that lasted for more than ten years in just three months. It was because she was not born with defects at all. This was just an excuse given by Junior Sister Xuan Su to the outside world.

Changning was placed under a special seal that even he was kept in the dark about. If it weren't for little Changning's breakthrough this time, Xuanming would still be kept in the dark.

At this moment, Xuan Ming was somewhat glad that he had allowed this little girl to break through in the Taoist Academy, otherwise, it would be hard to predict whether good or bad would happen.

He waved the whisk, and his magic power flowed like water, forming a bowl of light, which covered the Daoyuan upside down to prevent others from spying.

Afterwards, he continued to sit on the stone bench, and did nothing else except staring at Changning.

Everything that needs to be done is done.

She has to get through this level by herself.

If you succeed, the sky will be your limit.

If you fail, you will be lost in the crowd.

The two meridians are the test of heaven and earth for half-demons.

If he tried to help, it would only backfire and make the situation worse.

Blessings are where misfortune lies, and misfortunes are where blessings lie.

Heaven and earth are fair and give all living beings a glimmer of hope. Xuanming believes that this cheap nephew can break through his limits, break through himself, and turn disaster into blessing.

Whoosh~!

Several sounds broke through the air.

Xuanxu, Xuanyang, Xuanyin and others all sensed the changes in Cangdao Peak and rushed here one after another.

Except for Xuan Su, all the paths are complete.

They stood outside the light shield and looked at each other.

"Brother Xuanming actually set up a heavy light shield. Could it be that Junior Brother Changning broke through the realm and established the foundation? Or Junior Brother Changan broke through and then established the foundation?"

Xuankong patted his big belly and made a guess.

It is no secret in Qiuzhen Temple that Changning and Changan were noticed and instructed by Senior Brother Xuanming.

While envying his good luck, all the Taoists wanted to send their disciples in. After all, Senior Brother Xuanming was no longer the same as before, and his abilities made them admire him greatly.

If his disciples receive his guidance, they will definitely benefit.

Unfortunately, they were all rejected by Senior Brother Xuanming.

In his words:

"Senior Brother Xuan Ye passed away, and Chang Anzi was left without a teacher. He has taken good care of me for six years. It can be considered a destiny."

"In the past, Senior Brother Xuan Ye took good care of me. Combined with the two, the old Taoist taught Chang Anzi to repay his kindness."

"Little Changning is most likely the destined person for the Yin-Yang Foundation Building Chapter, so I am giving him some pointers."

"The rest of the disciples have you masters to teach them, so why do I need to take the trouble to instruct them?"

"I am already sixty years old, and my energy is limited. If there is nothing important, please don't disturb my peace."

Thinking of this, everyone felt mixed emotions.

Fortunately, they were all elders in the temple, and they quickly put aside their distracting thoughts and focused their attention back on who had achieved a breakthrough.

Xuan Yang laughed heartily and explained:

"Brother Xuankong, don't think about it."

"I saw Chang'anzi on the road. He was carrying a big tree on his back and hiking up the mountain. He was sweating profusely and his body was covered in bruises."

"This time, Junior Brother Changning should be breaking through the realm and building the foundation."

"But then again."

"Senior Brother Xuanming is really cruel."

"In the past three months, Chang'anzi has been tormented a lot. He goes out early and comes back late every day, relying entirely on physical brute force to work and practice."

"Not only did he often fall and get bruised and battered, but he also lost weight very quickly. I felt sorry for him just by looking at him."

Xuanxu said, "Brother, what are you saying?"

"Senior Brother Xuanming's move must have a deep meaning."

Xuan Yang, who looked like a 8-foot-tall strong man, subconsciously shrank his neck and smiled awkwardly at Xuan Xu:
"Brother, I know this, but I just saw that everyone was waiting here, so I just wanted to make small talk."

At this time, Xuan Kong chuckled and continued, "Junior Sister Xuan Su is usually aloof. When she comes out of retreat and finds that her precious daughter has made up for her innate essence and entered the foundation-building stage, she will probably be shocked and her expression will definitely be interesting."

"When the time comes, I will definitely go to the scene to watch and use the projection stone to record Junior Sister Xuansu's expression."

Glancing at the Bagua Xuankong, Xuantong said enviously: "If you don't fly, then you can fly into the sky."

“Although Junior Brother Changning has suffered many setbacks, if he can successfully break through this realm, he will be able to build a superior foundation for the Tao. His luck will surely turn for the better, and his future achievements will far surpass ours.”

"I am a little envious of Junior Sister Xuansu."

After these words were spoken, Xuan Kong was speechless.

Everyone fell silent at the same time, even Xuanxu was no exception.

After a long while, Xuan Yang said, "If little Chang Ning successfully builds his foundation, I will accept you even if I have to be beaten by Senior Brother Xuan Ming."

The Taoists all nodded, their voices getting louder and louder:

"Junior Brother Xuanyang, what you said makes sense!"

"It must be so!"

"We share the good times and the bad times. I am with you."

"I am with you."

"I am the headmaster, so I should have come first in this matter. If you blame me, I am willing to take full responsibility."

Xuan Yin immediately said, "Thank you, Senior Brother."

Everyone understood immediately and expressed their gratitude.

"Those who are capable should do more work. Thank you for your hard work, brother."

"No wonder you can be the headmaster. You are brave enough to shoulder the heavy responsibility. I admire you."

"Don't worry, brother. I will prepare the elixir."

mystery:……

Shouldn't the law not hold everyone responsible?
I am just saying what you said.

For a time, the headmaster of Qiuzhen Temple felt depressed and under great pressure.
