Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 466 A Vacancy Leads to a Dog's Demotion, A Three-Legged Square Table

His voice was booming and full of authority.

The nine spirits, who were waiting solemnly, opened their mouths and swallowed the incense and golden beads in front of them, and bowed respectfully to Li Wushou's three bodies.

The next moment, a prayer echoed throughout the cave.

It sounded like Buddhist chanting, or like decadent music filled with desire.

The tree goddess's five-element wood branches rustled, and one after another, five-element light curtains appeared, firmly sealing the cave and revealing not a trace of it.

The old beggar lay on the branch and chuckled strangely:
"Little tree branch, that's not how you use the power of the Five Elements."

The branches and leaves slowly twitched, and the face of the Tree Goddess quietly appeared. Looking at the old beggar, the Tree Goddess respectfully bowed and said:
"Please, sir, give me some guidance!"

The old beggar looked at the Tree Goddess's exquisite face and sighed inwardly.

The little tree branch seemed quite wary of me, rarely wandering around in front of me alone.

It's one thing to guard against that gluttonous Chen Gou'er, but to guard against a decent gentleman like myself? That's outrageous!

Muttering to himself, the old beggar replied without uttering a word:
"The harmonious integration of the five elements is indeed a good method, but it is not the only great path."

It should be noted that the mutual restraint and generation of the five elements is also one of the five great principles.

The five elements generate each other, thus their power is inexhaustible!

Upon hearing this, the Tree Goddess's heart stirred!
At this moment, she activated the Five Elements into one, transforming it into a binding force to seal off the four directions. It was indeed quite tight, but she found it very difficult to use.

She was already finding it hard to keep up with the second master's advances!

Such a drain on her energy would require the Second Master's assistance in using the Yin-Yang differentiation and the Five Elements to sustain her.

But what if we use the five elements to generate each other, thus stimulating the power of the five elements?
It actually seems feasible!

The Tree Goddess was naturally perceptive to the Five Elements, but her knowledge and understanding were lacking. After receiving guidance from the old beggar, she quickly focused her attention on two things at once.

While operating the Five Elements Mutual Generation Method, the Five Elements are generated.

On the other side, the five elements that were generated will be merged into one and sealed off the four directions.

Seeing this, the old beggar nodded and smiled:

"Ruzi can be taught!"

After giving a compliment, the old beggar didn't stop.

The Tree Goddess's sealing technique was enough to keep the Nascent Soul True Monarchs inside Zhongtian Pass in the dark, but it couldn't fool the Sparrow Lord and the Immortal Mountain.

Especially Mount Bulao!

I really underestimated that Great Celestial Venerable and Earth Mother Venerable.

"I, an old man, have to take action myself!"

However, after this, Li Wushou should have some ability to protect himself, which will allow this old man to have a little more peace and quiet.”

With a sigh, the old beggar slowly rose from the tree trunk.

He pointed a finger at his brow, and the three-legged square table was taken out of the Three Immortals Pavilion.

With an indifferent expression, the old beggar broke off three fingers, rubbed them together to make incense, and stuck them into the corner of the three-legged square table.

His eyes gleamed with golden light as he looked up at the sky.

The three-legged square table's form faded, and the entire Zhongtian Pass seemed as if a dark cloud had drifted by.

The gloomy scene flashed by, and the three-legged square table reappeared in the void, while the sky above Zhongtian Pass returned to its original state.

The old beggar gazed at the three-legged square table and slowly walked to the empty seat in the corner where the leg was missing.

His tattered clothes fluttered without wind, and the old beggar calmly sat down solemnly on the right side of the missing leg.

The moment the old beggar sat down, the power of the five elements on the Tree Goddess was drawn out of control and gathered beneath the old beggar to form a Five Elements Throne.

The Tree Goddess felt a sudden weight lift from her shoulders. Looking at the old beggar's slightly hunched back, she felt a sense of being like an ant gazing at the sky.

At this moment, the old man felt extremely unfamiliar to her!

She felt no lust whatsoever.

Indifferent, heartless, and aloof.

Daunting!
As the Tree Goddess was lost in thought, the old beggar, who was sitting idly, looked down in Li Wushou's direction and suddenly let out a soft shout:
"Come!"

The Tree Goddess shivered, somewhat bewildered, when she suddenly saw a dark shadow rise up behind the Second Master's physical body. The shadow was no better off than she was, equally trembling with fear!

Then, involuntarily, it floated to the old beggar's feet, but the old beggar never looked at it again.

He casually lifted his foot and stepped on it.

The dark figure was curled up in a ball, looking like a black dog.

"Refine your spirit!"

Under the Five Elements Tree
The old beggar's actions made Li Wushou thoughtful.

A three-legged square table can capture the spirit of a world, and can merge with a void, or even the Dharma realm, making it mysterious and extraordinary.

Before he began his spiritual practice, the old beggar often used a three-legged square table to block out the sky and help them conceal their bodies.

After Li Wushou began his cultivation, he also defeated his enemies many times by using a three-legged square table!
He had asked about the origin of the three-legged square table before, but the old beggar only said that it was an old item from his home.

Like the clay incense burner, it was one of the possessions he left behind after dividing the family property.

When pressed for further details, they refused to answer.

Therefore, Li Wushou did not know the specific origin of the three-legged square table, only that when he opened his eyes, the old beggar was carrying it on his back.

In addition, the right side of the missing leg is never used for sitting!
The old beggar and Chen Gou'er always sat on the two sides facing the missing leg, while only Li Wushou sat on the side to the left of the missing leg.

Why is no one sitting on the right side?
Li Wushou had naturally asked the old beggar.

The old beggar looked resentful and said bluntly that the seat was for someone else.

He will treat them well!
Li Wushou and Chen Gou'er were also curious for a long time about who this person was, but they never saw him sit there again, so they never asked again.

But today, the old beggar sat solemnly on the right side!
The moment the old beggar sat down, Li Wushou felt a sudden jolt in his heart.

In fact, not only the Tree Goddess, but also the old beggar felt both unfamiliar and familiar to him at this moment!

The reason he seemed unfamiliar was that the old beggar appeared to be a completely different person!

The reason it felt familiar was that the aura the old beggar exuded at that moment was remarkably similar to that of "He"!

The same indifference, the same ruthlessness!

Who exactly is the old beggar?
Even though Li Wushou trusted the old beggar implicitly, he couldn't help but have some doubts at this moment.

However, he was momentarily speechless, considering the previous movements of "His" Dharma Body and the old beggar's attitude towards "His".

The old beggar and "He" must have had some kind of entanglement, but it was probably not a connection, but rather a feud.

However, when Li Wushou saw the dark figure being trampled under the old beggar's feet, he felt a strange feeling again.

And so, is it really because they still don't trust the shadowy figure?

Should we just find an opportunity to kill him?

The shadowy figure, who was already feeling wronged by being trampled underfoot by the old beggar, became even more resentful after sensing Li Wushou's thoughts.

However, due to the old beggar's oppressive presence, it was unable to speak and felt extremely sad.

It desperately wanted to shout:

"Unjustly accused!"

It dared not, because it could sense that if it made any unusual movement, the foot on its body could easily crush it to death at any moment.

It is different from the Tree Goddess and others!
It knew from the beginning that the eldest master was just as terrifying as the second master.

Li Wushou was filled with mixed emotions. After hearing the old beggar's indifferent reminder of "refining the spirit," he immediately composed himself.

The three bodies, the mind, and the spirit depart from each other and directly enter the divine aperture.

Within the low mountain, the spirit tablet within Dao Yun's body flickered, drawing the mind's attention to the tablet.

In order to rid himself of the corrupting influence of incense on his mind, Li Wushou used the spirit tablet to govern his three bodies and accept the worship of the nine spirit bodies.

This time, because of the Daoist spirit offering the spirit tablet, it was much easier than the last time!
The mixed sounds of prayers and desires lingered in his ears, yet they could not shake his mind.

Silently chanting "Food is the foundation of life," Li Wushou almost swallowed the refined incense power from the Nine Spirits into his primordial spirit body in a gushing manner.

Meanwhile, the invisible golden elixir and the physical body of the original being can mobilize the power of flesh and blood in a timely manner to replenish the needs of the flesh and blood evolved from the primordial spirit.

The primordial spirit, seated beneath the Five Elements Tree, grew at a visible speed.
