From a carp to a dragon god

Chapter 326: Rune Taoist and the Nine Taoist Temples

Establishing the Dao and spreading the Dharma is equivalent to founding a sect. At first, Yu Shuyang only considered spreading the Dao and preventing the encroachment of the demon and fairy families.

After experiencing the little tricks of Yin Chenzi and Yang Fuzi, Yu Shuyang finally understood that establishing a lineage of Dharma inheritance involves details in all aspects.

"Master Yang, your method is really not very clever. You can collect the pictographic runes and compile them into a book, and then give it to me to pass on to my disciples as a foundation.

Isn't this equivalent to giving up the Rune Dao Fruit? "I think, why don't you try harder and establish your own lineage?" Yu Shuyang advised with a hint of regret.

He established the Tao and passed on the Dharma for the purpose of cultivation. In the future, all his disciples will have to call him the ancestor. This relationship is not obvious at the moment, but after he ascends to Taiqing Palace, his status will be enhanced as the Dharma lineage grows.

Yang Fuzi laughed heartily and said, "I am not practicing the way of runes, so it doesn't matter if I can become a Dharma Vein Master or not.

I'm giving you this inheritance today, so maybe I can benefit from it in the future, so don't refuse it."

Yang Fuzi does things in an ancient style. The last time Yu Shuyang took the Taoist exam, he saw the Zhang Tiger Clan in Shuzhong bewitching Li Taiping, and also saw Yin Chenzi circling around Yu Shuyang, and he was afraid that he would be fooled.

This is why the Saoxia Fairy Robe was exchanged for the eldest disciple of the Dharma Lineage. Later, it was learned that Yu Shuyang wanted to strip the Dharma Lineage of its luck and refine the weapon, and the eldest disciple's plan was canceled, and the Saoxia Fairy Robe was not taken back.

Yu Shuyang also had a scale in his heart. Although both were great magical instruments, the Qiankun Long Snake Bag was at least three levels lower than the Saoxia Fairy Robe.

The spirituality of the Saoxia Fairy Clothes remains the same, and the magic restrictions were all performed by the same person. After being obtained and nurtured and refined, it turned into a void magic weapon.

In comparison, the Qiankun Snake Bag requires much more effort. Not only does it need to nourish the snake's skin and grow flesh and blood, but it also needs to cleanse the magic ban.

If Yu Shuyang did not have the Dongyuan Xuantian Flag, which could gather the weak water of the Tianhe River, it would be a foolish dream for him to refine the Qiankun Long Snake Bag into a real magic weapon.

Therefore, in his heart, Yang Fuzi is more important than Sheqiu Taoist and Yin Chenzi. He is indeed a rare honest monster.

"Haha, if Master Yang is sincere in giving it to me, then I won't be polite. From now on, the rune monks will respect you as a half-master." Yu Shuyang couldn't help but joked.

As for the Rune Dao, he really didn't want to take it over. After all, he had accumulated too many things, such as the Sword Dao, the Eight Wind Curse, and the Black Tortoise Water Technique. Currently, the Eight Wind Curse didn't even have a successor.

Recently, he has also comprehended the Micro-Dust Tribulation from the Micro-Dust Chess Manual. This method of refining the void into form and refining the real into the void needs to be passed on to another person.

So there are four branches in total, which is really too many. For example, the three students of the Fajian branch are left alone most of the time, and they haven't even broken through to the ninth level of cultivation yet.

"What's the point of being a half-master or not? You should also help think about it. If I can pass it on as soon as possible, it will benefit both you and me.

"Come to think of it, I haven't asked you yet. What are the future plans for Tōkaidōin? The first two waves of students were recruited in the Fox Country. What are your plans for the future?" Yang Fuzi asked sternly.

Yang Fuzi had been holding this matter in his heart for some time. Seeing that Yu Shuyang was letting a group of foxes loose as usual, he wanted to ask what Tokaidoin's future plans were.

Yu Shuyang was not vague and said directly: "I thought about recruiting 3,000 foxes from the fox tribe first and teaching them the 36 sacred scriptures.

He selected the fox cubs who had developed a Taoist nature and accepted them as his disciples, and then let them preach among the wandering cultivators and wild monsters in the East China Sea.

No matter whether they are aquatic creatures in the sea or demon and fairy families on large and small islands, as long as they are not practicing, they can come to the Taoist temple to listen to the scriptures.

At the same time, I will select a few from the hundred arts of immortal cultivation and teach them to the wandering cultivators and wild monsters who come to listen to the sutras, so that their trip will not be in vain."

Yu Shuyang has slowly figured out this method recently, and has discussed it with Li Taiping and Yin Chenzi many times during this period.

Yang Fuzi was a little surprised when he heard this. He really didn't expect that Yu Shuyang would actually open the gate of the mountain.

"Have you thought it through? If we do as you wish, neither the East China Sea Dragon Palace nor the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance will agree. They won't sit idly by."

The control of the cultivation methods by the demon fairy family is from top to bottom. For example, the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea completely enslaves the aquatic creatures in the sea, and any resistance will be exterminated by the three tribes.

Not long ago, Yu Shuyang captured the sea anemone sailors, intending to ask them to help him practice mine magic. However, he did not expect that they were all afraid of the military token system and would rather be killed than cooperate.

The situation is similar for the wandering cultivators and wild monsters at sea. For example, in the five islands and eight cities of Yazhou, there are a large number of workshops in the monster cities, and wandering cultivators and wild monsters can join them. They can only learn one or two skills in the workshops.

The most typical example is the green worm Cao Qing, who was born in Yatou Mountain. After the Fire Crow Immortal died after transcending the tribulation, Yatou Mountain was taken back by Chaoju City and resold to the Fire Duck Immortal. Cao Qing and all the other insect monsters were driven away.

In order to take revenge, he went to Chaoju City and first learned alchemy. Just when he learned how to make fire, the alchemy room was disbanded. He then went to the ink making workshop and stayed there for many years.

If Cao Qing had not caught up with Yu Fu's plan to make spiritual ink, he would have never had the chance to return to Yatou Mountain. He would probably have worked in the ink workshop until his death.

The Demon City and the Dragon Palace are both openly and covertly controlling the cultivation methods, and will not allow the Tokaido Temple to open its gates and spread the cultivation methods.

Yu Shuyang smiled and shook his head, saying, "Earlier, perhaps they would have intervened, but now with Master Yang's help, this matter will be much simpler.

We can refine a rune jade disk and ask the monsters passing by to help deduce it. We can set a high reward and give away an elixir for every perfect word.

Under the pretext of deducing runes, the matter of teaching Taoist scriptures and cultivating the various arts of immortality was hidden in it, and it only needed to be concealed for a few decades.

I think there will be a large number of students by then. As long as we can protect Tōkaidōin, we don’t have to worry about not being able to gain a foothold.

We will develop in the same way as the Qingqiu Fox Clan and the Jiuyi people of the Wanxian League took root.

To be honest, it should be easier for us. First, the Taoist temple does not develop its own bloodline and does not restrict the identity of the students. Second, we do not expand our own power. Basically, we just preach the Taoism and the Dharma.

Last but not least, Tōkaidōin has the support of the Dao League and is not afraid of them at all. We must accomplish this."

Yu Shuyang spoke out all his thoughts in one breath, speaking directly from his heart. He was not afraid of the East China Sea Dragon Palace or the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance. Even if the sky fell, there would be someone taller to hold it up.

In comparison, Yang Fuzi has to worry a lot more, because he is a tall one. If there is any problem in the future, he will definitely be one of the demons and fairies mobilized by Shuiyue Wutong.

At the same time, he was thinking about what Yu Shuyang had said just now, the rune jade disk, one character for each immortal pill, this was to match a grand event to invite all the immortal families, who knew that the runes could really be made.

After pondering for a long time, Yang Fuzi felt that it was right and couldn't help asking, "What you said just now is all right, but there is only one problem that is difficult to solve.

"Each word is worth a pill. Even if I hold Yin Chenzi captive and ask him to refine pills every day, I'm afraid he won't be able to refine that many, right?"

Yu Shuyang couldn't help but burst out laughing after hearing this, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Yang Fuzi was indeed an honest man.

"Master Yang, you are also confused. We have the title of Master Yin. Even the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea cannot doubt that we do not have the elixir.

When the time comes, we will pick out a few easy ones and refine them in eight or ten batches. We won't really give them the elixir, but just let them see it.

After all, there are so many elixirs that can solve the problem, and they still need to start refining. As long as they want to refine the elixir they need, it will be easy, just wait in line. Taking this opportunity, Master Yin can also recruit a few more apprentices to help refine the elixir. After all, the Taoist Academy has no shortage of students, so there is no worry about not being able to select apprentices.

Yu Shuyang's plan is just to make a pie in the sky and ask for food. The more elixirs he owes, the safer Tokaidoin will be.

Yang Fuzi's face turned red for a moment. He was a turtle that had turned into a spirit. He was not lacking in intelligence, but he was just honest by nature. After listening to what Yu Shuyang said, he realized that he was trying to deceive people.

But before Yang Fuzi could say anything, he heard a scolding coming from afar.

"Xuan Yunzi, you have a good plan. You actually want to use my name to cheat!"

The person who spoke was none other than Yin Chenzi, who had returned to the Fox Country to recruit students. He had just returned from the Fox Country and heard Yu Shuyang's words when he was pressing down the cloud.

Seeing this, Yu Shuyang did not feel angry. Instead, he smiled and said to Chen Zi: "Master Yin, this is all for the construction of Donghaidaoyuan. When the time comes, I will refine the elixir with you.

Besides, there's the Wan family. He's been learning alchemy from you these past few years, so we now have three alchemists. If we recruit a few more in the future, the problem will be solved."

He deliberately made things sound very light. These two times, Yin Chenzi pretended to be stupid and Yang Fuzi tricked him. This time, Yu Shuyang also acted.

Yin Chenzi was not angry, and said calmly: "That's fine, you have to learn alchemy anyway, so this is a good opportunity to learn more.

I have recruited students for you. They will all be sent here in two days. From now on, it will be up to you to take charge of the overall situation."

Yu Shuyang understood the meaning behind Yin Chenzi's words. Earlier, Yin Chenzi had asked him for a favor and pretended to be stupid and pushed the matter of Tokaido Temple to him. His purpose was nothing more than to let him accept more fox demons as apprentices.

Now, he wants to use Yin Chenzi's name to cover up trouble. For a while, the offensive and defensive situations have changed. Not to mention that Yu Shuyang is under someone else's control, he can no longer control Yin Chenzi like before.

“Everything is under control. I wonder how the construction of the Jiujianyuan is going. Why don’t we go and take a look.

"A few days ago, my junior brother was discussing with me about planting a fortune tree. Do you have any good suggestions?" Yu Shuyang subconsciously changed the subject.

"Why not choose the Chinese cinnabar tree? This tree has an elegant aura, is long-lived, and can be used to make rice paper.

"Paper is a must-have in a Taoist temple, so this is a good way to put it to good use," Yang Fuzi said.

Now Yang Fuzi's thoughts have completely changed. All he thinks about is the way of runes. When he heard that he wanted to plant a luck tree, he immediately thought of the qingtan tree. After all, he could use it to draw runes in the future.

Yin Chenzi, who was standing by, quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, if you ask me, it would be better to plant a southern candle tree.

Since we are going to build a Taoist temple, we must first eat. Nanzhumu is rich in green rice, which is very nourishing to the body.

Seeing that they were all arguing with each other, Yu Shuyang found it difficult to make a decision, so he said, "Let's go check out the Taoist temple. It's too early to plant the Qiyun tree. We have to wait until the Dao is established and the Dharma is passed down."

So, a group of five monsters headed straight for the center of the lake. In addition to Yu Shuyang, Yin Chenzi, and Yang Fuzi, there were also two nephews of the Bai family on the cloud car.

Since the two hedgehog spirits got on the cloud car, they have been looking Yu Shuyang up and down. They learned medical skills from their father, so they regarded Yu Shuyang as a treasure as soon as they saw him.

The main reason was that Yu Shuyang's muscles and bones were just beginning to grow under his skin and flesh. The two brothers of the Bai family had never seen such a situation before, so it was a great learning opportunity for them.

Seeing how eager to learn his two nephews were, Yu Shuyang let them do what they wanted and told them to observe the acupoints and tendons carefully to compare them with those of humans.

The cloud chariot was floating in the air, and in front of it were two wind horses transformed from heavenly wind. They were originally supposed to be two dragon carps, but were forcibly changed by Yu Shuyang.

In just a moment, they flew to the center of the island in the middle of the lake. Looking down from the sky, they saw a huge "回"-shaped building. To be precise, it should be a nine-layer "回"-shaped structure.

He had heard Li Taiping say earlier that on the way here, Yang Fuzi discussed with the ancestor of the Chi family how to build the Taoist temple.

Later, on the west bank of the lake island, the ancestor of the Chi family was seen activating four star god magic weapons to build a house in mid-air.

Yu Shuyang always thought it was a courtyard, but he didn't expect that it was actually a circle of nine courtyards arranged like this.

In his impression, Jiujianyuan should have nine rooms lined up in a row, with the rest of the houses built symmetrically on the left and right.

Upon closer inspection, there is also a north-south center line in the city below. Nine large halls are built on this line, but they are surrounded by city walls, which makes it look like a circled Chinese character "回".

Yu Shuyang controlled the cloud car with his mind and slowly descended from the sky. Only then did he discover that the city wall was extremely thick and there were watchtowers and city walls on top.

"Master Yang, is this a Taoist temple or a military fortress? We are not fighting a war, so why would we build such a city defense?" Yu Shuyang asked in confusion.

Yang Fuzi was also a little puzzled. After all, he arranged it according to the Five Elements and Four Symbols, so how could it be built into a U-shaped city wall?

Fortunately, the ancestor of the Chi family was very alert and quickly noticed someone coming. He hurried out to check and saw the two demon fairies, Yang Fuzi and Yin Chenzi, coming. They hurriedly flew out of the city.

"Why are you two immortals here? We are still a little short of the right time and some of the prohibitions have not been set up properly." The ancestor of the Chi family came up with a flattering face, looking like a fawning servant.

Yu Shuyang wanted to close his eyes after watching so much, thinking to himself, this old monkey is also a fifth-grade demon fairy, how come he is the same as the old eunuchs in the palace? Especially the servile look on his face, it really makes him sick.

"How are these nine rooms arranged into a military city?" Yang Fuzi asked.

"My Lord, this is related to the Feng Shui of the island. Our island is shaped like an upside-down tortoise shell, and it also serves as a water jar. If we want to build houses to prevent them from being eroded, we have to build them thicker.

Also, regarding the feng shui of the island, I calculated the four directions and realized that there are two water veins passing through under the sea, which need to be suppressed.

So I changed it to its current appearance, with the outer wall shaped like a golden seal, suppressing the two water veins, and a bow and a sword inside the city."

Having said that, the ancestor of the Chi family stopped and pointed to the center line running through the north and south, as well as the moat for drainage.

He said: "This center line is like a sword, running through the north and south, connecting water and fire.

The moat and the culvert are like a bow, the Northwest Shooting Heavenly Wolf Bureau, perfect for dispelling evil and eliminating disasters."

The ancestor of the Chi family built nine courtyards, and he used all his skills. In addition to the overall layout outside, every room inside was also well arranged.
