I was selling peach wood swords on a live stream, how did I become a Taoist ancestor?

It was almost noon, and the sun was shining brightly.

Inside a side room of Qingfeng Temple, Li Jun slowly awoke from a deep state of cultivation.

The instant his eyes opened and closed, he felt the whole world had changed, as if a dusty mirror had been carefully wiped clean, and the whole world had become vivid and clear.

With the slightest thought, a wondrous perception unfolds naturally, like mercury spilling onto the ground.

Without even opening your eyes, the furnishings in the room are clearly visible, down to the fine lines on the wooden table and the tiny dust particles slowly floating in the air...

Everything is reflected in the heart with perfect clarity.

This perception continued to extend outward, gently enveloping the entire Qingfeng Temple.

He could "see" his master sitting on the edge of his bed in his room, holding an old pocket watch in his hand, with a hint of worry on his face.

The senses transcended the courtyard wall, spreading up and down the mountain.

The traces left by sword practice on the open ground behind the mountain, the withered grass blown by the wind on the mountain path, and even a few startled crows taking flight in the woods further away...

Everything is under control.

"This is... the Refining Spirit Realm? Divine Sense?"

Li Jun felt an indescribable shock and excitement.

This is even more exaggerated than a human radar! It has 360 degrees of coverage and is incredibly precise!

He tried to focus his divine sense on the evil-suppressing sword on the desk.

"rise."

With a thought, the Demon-Suppressing Sword seemed to hear the summons, emitting a cheerful chime, and flew up from the table on its own, hovering in front of Li Jun.

The sword trembled slightly, as if in perfect harmony with his mind, moving as if it were his own arm.

Li Jun's thoughts shifted again, and the Demon-Suppressing Sword transformed into a nimble golden light, weaving and dancing through the small room, tracing paths and precisely avoiding all the furniture.

"So cool!"

Li Jun was deeply moved and couldn't help but imagine himself riding a flying sword and soaring through the sky.

"Flying on a sword... I wonder if that's possible now?"

The idea is incredibly tempting.

However, Li Jun quickly suppressed this impulse.

The clock on the wall was almost pointing to twelve o'clock. I hadn't left the room all morning, and my master must be worried.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and stood up.

Pushing open the door, the sunlight was a bit too bright.

Li Jun had only taken a few steps when he saw that his master's door across the street had also been pushed open.

The old Taoist priest walked out of the room with a lingering worry on his face. The moment he saw Li Jun, the worry on his face quickly disappeared, replaced by his usual calm.

"You brat, what have you been doing cooped up in the house all morning?" the old Taoist priest asked, feigning seriousness. "Did you stay up late again last night?"

"Master, I didn't stay up all night," Li Jun said with a smile as he stepped forward. "It's just that I've made a small breakthrough in my cultivation."

"A breakthrough?" The old Taoist priest didn't understand these things, but seeing his disciple looking radiant and with eyes much clearer than usual, he nodded. "That's good."

"Oh, right..."

The old Taoist priest seemed to remember something, so he took out his old smartphone from his pocket and tapped it a few times rather clumsily.

"Jun'er, look, the internet is buzzing today, all the big news."

Li Jun leaned closer to take a look.

On the phone screen were several news notifications.

[Last night, a series of horrific incidents involving a hundred demons roamed multiple locations in Japan, resulting in heavy casualties! The Self-Defense Forces have intervened!]

[The Night Watch Headquarters officially announced at 9:00 AM today: The spiritual energy resurgence is real!]

[The era of universal spiritual practice has arrived! The "Basic Qi Refining Techniques" will soon be promoted nationwide!]

Li Jun read through the list one by one, his eyes widening with each passing sentence.

A Night Parade of One Hundred Demons in the Land of Cherry Blossoms?

Will the Night Watch reveal the truth?

A nationwide spiritual practice plan?

The amount of information was too much for him to process all at once.

However, that day has finally come.

Openness signifies order and guidance, and also marks the official beginning of a brand new era.

"The Sakura Kingdom is in real trouble this time." The old Taoist priest clicked his tongue and said, "I heard that a lot of people have died. Those shikigami and monsters are like madmen, killing people everywhere."

Li Jun nodded, but some doubts remained in his heart.

Why did a Hundred Demons Parade suddenly break out in Japan?

However, he didn't think much of it, since it had nothing to do with him. It must be because Japan had done a lot of bad things in the past.

"Little Sakura brought this on herself." The old Taoist snorted, a rare hint of schadenfreude in his expression.

Li Jun smiled, but after he smiled, a thought crossed his mind.

Now that the Night's Watch has announced a nationwide training plan, the teaching materials must be the official, verified version.

Perfect timing! We can take this opportunity to let Master try it too!

My master is getting old. He doesn't aspire to become a master. It would be good if he could improve his health and prolong his life.

More importantly, Li Jun had a wish in his heart: he hoped that his master could live a long life and see Qingfeng Temple flourish.

"Master," Li Jun said, "the country is promoting cultivation now, why don't you... give it a try?"

Upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest paused for a moment, then waved his hand.

"I'm almost ninety years old, with the ground reaching my neck, what's the point of building anything else? It's rare for a person to live to seventy, I'm content, I can't keep up with the pace."

"Master, you can't say that," Li Jun said with a grin. "Perhaps you'll attain immortality in the future and live as long as heaven and earth!"

"At that time, I, your disciple, can also benefit from your influence and get a position in the celestial ranks."

The old Taoist priest was amused by him and gave him a light slap.

"You brat! I'm almost ninety years old, and you still expect me to work hard?"

He laughed and scolded, "Just focus on your own cultivation, and when you become successful in the future, remember to burn plenty of good paper money for your master."

Despite saying that, the old Taoist priest's eyes were somewhat moved.

Having lived to such an old age, he had long since become indifferent to life and death, but there were two things he couldn't let go of.

Firstly, there are some clues about what happened to Master Zhang Xuanzhen back then.

The second is the apprentice in front of me.

I'm nearly ninety years old, and with my neck about to be buried, how many more years can I spend with my apprentice? I might not even see this kid get married and have a grandchild.

If spiritual practice can truly prolong life...

With this thought, the old Taoist priest's initial resistance dissipated.

"But..." the old Taoist priest still had some concerns, "Can my old bones still manage to practice this?"

"Definitely!" Li Jun patted his chest and assured him, "With your apprentice... uh, with the official teaching materials issued by the state, and following the steps step by step, there definitely won't be any problem!"

He had intended to say he would teach, but changed his mind before he could finish.

I'm practicing with the initial version that Jin Hao got before. What if there are any optimizations or changes in the official version?

It would be safest to produce a formal version that is distributed nationwide.

"Alright then...so be it." The old Taoist priest finally nodded. "It's your decision."

Li Jun was overjoyed.

"Master, please wait here, I'll go get the teaching materials right away!"

He excitedly ran back to his room and picked up his phone.

I unlocked the screen and found quite a few messages.

Jin Hao and Yin Jian both sent New Year's greetings in the morning and each sent a red envelope.

The class group chat was buzzing with activity, with almost all the discussions revolving around "the revival of spiritual energy," "civilized spiritual practice," and "the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons in the Land of Cherry Blossoms."

The students excitedly speculated about their own talents and what the future held, creating an incredibly lively atmosphere.
