Taoist priests in the supernatural world

Chapter 132 Returning to Familiar Places, Re-entering the Twin Pupils

Observe the form and receive the pattern, take medicine and wear a headdress.

These eight characters reveal the true meaning of the "Scripture of the Queen Mother of the West's Immortality".

The Classic of Mountains and Seas states: The Queen Mother of the West has tiger teeth and a leopard tail, with disheveled hair and wearing a headdress.

The phrase "disheveled hair and headdress" does not refer to the image of a disheveled woman with loose hair and headdress as depicted by later painters.

The "hoopoe" here refers to the authority of the celestial officials.

Those who wear ceremonial robes are ordained by Heaven and registered in the Kingdom of the Queen Mother of the West.

From then on, they were no longer mortal beings of flesh and blood, but celestial officials who bore the mandate of heaven in human form and the mandate of heaven in beast form.

Huang Bai gently stroked the edge of the jade slip, feeling a wisp of cool moonlight within it.

"However, we still need to explore this area."

He muttered to himself, the golden light in his eyes flickering uncertainly.

"Moreover, the lineage of the Queen Mother of the West is likely to impose significant restrictions. It's possible that after practicing this method, one will come under the control of the Queen Mother of the West."

Huang Bai had no sectarian prejudices regarding the path of cultivation.

Whether it's the Queen Mother of the West or Shao Hao, they are both practicing a method of cultivation.

Although the two sides are in an opposing relationship, they are not as clearly divided as good and evil.

The methods of the Western Queen Mother's Kingdom have limitations, hidden dangers, and extremely profound aspects.

Ignoring something simply because it is hostile is a poor choice.

For those who cultivate themselves, the most important thing to avoid is a narrow perspective.

In conclusion, it should still be like external alchemy practice, taking the essence and discarding the dross.

Nether.

The blood mist over the South China Sea is gradually dissipating.

Zuo Ci, Yu Ji, and others, along with the Taiping Dao cultivators, cleaned up the last remaining strange beasts in the Hentian Kingdom.

With the last of the strange beasts defeated, the chilling aura that had lingered on the island for many years finally dissipated completely.

Just then, the Heavenly Decree lit up.

[Heavenly Decree to Exterminate Demons: Travel to the world of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms," eliminate the messenger of the Queen Mother of the West, and destroy the Kingdom of Hatred.]

The characters on the edict transformed into pure gold, stroke by stroke.

This also means that the mission in this realm has been completed.

"Zhang Jiao, An Qisheng!"

Huang Bai put away the jade slip and summoned the two people.

Before long, Zhang Jiao and An Qisheng arrived at the Fusang tree.

"Your Highness!"

The two stepped forward to greet each other.

Huang Bai looked at the two of them and said:

"I will ascend to the upper realm, and I don't know when I will return next time."

His gaze swept over the Fusang tree, the Thunderfire Golden Palace, and the Penglai Dharma Realm, which was gradually settling down in the distance.

"Take care. I entrust the Penglai Immortal Kingdom to you."

Zhang Jiao's expression turned serious, and he immediately cupped his hands and said:

"Rest assured, Your Highness, your disciple will certainly live up to your expectations."

An Qisheng nodded slightly and said:

"The Immortal Elder has laid a foundation for us along the way. From now on, maintaining the Dharma realm and educating all people will be our duty."

Huang Bai smiled.

There's really not much to explain.

Huang Bai did not hold back anything from the people of Penglai Immortal Kingdom, but passed on all the teachings he could.

Of course, this excludes those methods that breed ambition and cause great harm.

For Huang Bai, the Dharma itself is not the most important thing.

What truly matters are the people who walk alongside you.

"Disciple understands."

Zhang Jiao nodded solemnly once again.

He paused, then couldn't help but ask:

"Will the prince ever return from his journey to the celestial realm?"

Huang Bai glanced at him and smiled:

"Of course I will. The heavens are vast, and I cannot possibly go to only one place."

An Qisheng smiled upon hearing this and said:

"We will wait here for the immortal to return next time."

Huang Bai nodded slightly.

The next moment, golden light slowly shone from his body.

The colorful feathers unfurled gently in the light, like clouds draping her body.

Zhang Jiao and An Qisheng stood under the Fusang tree, watching helplessly as the yellow and white figures were gradually enveloped in golden light and faded away.

Until the last trace of light disappeared.

"A towering mountain to be admired."

Zhang Jiao stared at the empty void, his face filled with obvious shock.

He originally thought that after his ascension to heaven in broad daylight, he would be able to close the gap with princes and nobles to some extent.

Even now, he still can't see through the ways of the princes.

It was even less clear than before I ascended.

The sense of pride and satisfaction felt during the ascension has now completely vanished.

An Qisheng looked at Zhang Jiao and said with a smile:

"It seems you understand now."

Zhang Jiao was silent for a moment, then said:

"The more one cultivates oneself, the more one realizes the vastness of heaven and earth."

An Qisheng nodded and patted him on the shoulder.

"Now that you have ascended to heaven, the position of True Lord Donghua Siming will be handed over to you."

Zhang Jiao was taken aback and asked, "And what about you?"

An Qisheng turned around with his hands behind his back, a leisurely smile on his face.

"I'm going to be my Arctic real person."

Having said that, without waiting for Zhang Jiao's reply, he smiled and disappeared into the mountains.

His figure disappeared into the vegetation behind the hibiscus tree, his green hair blending into the branches and leaves, and he was soon indistinguishable from the others.

Zhang Jiao stared in the direction he had left, then shook his head and chuckled after a moment.

From then on, the Penglai Immortal Kingdom was ruled by the Thunder God.

The interior of the ancient temple.

It shimmered with golden light.

Suddenly, a Taoist priest, dressed in colorful feather robes, with a handsome appearance and seemingly otherworldly, appeared.

After landing, he gently flicked his sleeve, and the colorful feathered robes disappeared at his will, transforming into an ordinary Taoist robe.

Huang Bai looked around and gently exhaled.

"A very fruitful harvest indeed."

A hint of satisfaction appeared in his eyes.

This trip to the Three Kingdoms world was truly worthwhile.

Before the incense table, the wisps of smoke suddenly condensed slightly.

Before long, two sticks of incense slowly condensed inside the cauldron.

Huang Bai stepped forward and reached out to touch it.

Related information then emerged.

【Crossover Fragrance】

【Ember Fragrance】

"Another crossover fragrance."

Huang Bai smiled slightly.

"This incense is quite good."

He still remembered that he had used this incense stick to take Ying Zheng to the mummy world.

If used properly, this item can help me recruit powerful beings from all over the world to fill the Penglai Immortal Kingdom.

It can even allow practitioners from different worlds to verify each other's Taoist teachings.

If these people were to get together, they might just come up with something new.

As for the lingering fragrance, there's no need to elaborate.

It allows one to return to the world they once experienced and reactivate the Heavenly Decree.

Huang Bai put away the two incense sticks, pondered for a moment, and then turned and went to the Mica Mountain in the Great Ming Hall.

Stepping into the side hall, the view suddenly opened up before my eyes.

The area is shaded by trees and the sky is clear and bright.

On the mountainside, veins of minerals such as cloud sand, gold sand, and mica are exposed, gleaming with a faint spiritual light.

The stream flows down from the mountainside, around Dan Ding, and the sound of the water is crisp and clear.

The mica mountain in the Daming Hall is one of the most stable sources of raw materials for Huang Bai's elixir.

Huang Bai stopped in front of the alchemical furnace at the foot of the mountain.

With a flick of his sleeve, he took out seven treasures, including gold, silver, giant clam shell, and agate, and put them into the cauldron one by one.

When the seven treasures were placed into the cauldron, they immediately produced a clear, tinkling sound.

The precious light flashed and shimmered, and the cauldron was filled with a misty aura of precious energy.

This time, he plans to refine a Seven Treasures Jade Powder Pill using Seven Treasures Jade Powder.

This elixir serves as the foundation for the supernatural powers of the Cloud Seal.

If one can truly master this method, the yellow and white talisman system will be further advanced.

The Taiyi True Fire rose from beneath the cauldron.

Flames licked the belly of the cauldron, and the seven treasures softened, crumbled, and melted little by little in the fire.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Purple mist hangs in the sky above Mica Mountain.

A unique fragrance permeated the surrounding area.

Before the alchemy furnace, the purple aura gradually formed the shape of a dragon and a tiger.

The dragon-shaped object meanders and coils, while the tiger-shaped object crouches and roars; the two continuously circulate around the cauldron.

Suddenly, the lid of the cauldron trembled slightly.

The pure white pill, as white as a cloud, burst out of the cauldron and hung suspended in mid-air, as if it were about to break through the air and fly away.

"Don't leave!"

Huang Bai opened his mouth and inhaled.

The Seven Treasures Jade Powder Pill instantly transformed into a beam of white light, which he swallowed.

This is the transformation from external elixir to internal elixir.

After the pill entered his stomach, Huang Bai's internal energy trembled slightly.

He closed his eyes and sensed for a moment, only to feel a light and white pill in his abdomen.

The surface of the pill was shrouded in clouds, while inside, fine, bird-track-like patterns constantly gathered and dispersed.

Huang Bai suddenly stood up and lightly tapped the air with his fingertips.

Thin lines of light intertwined rapidly at his fingertips, instantly forming cloud-like seal script.

The cloud-shaped characters hang in mid-air, light and ethereal, seemingly real yet illusory.

Wow!

The cloud-shaped seal script took shape.

The next moment, they transformed into two fire dragons, circling several times in mid-air.

The fire dragons are on the left and right, their bodies composed of firelight and rune lines, and when they coil, you can even see scale-like light patterns.

After a few breaths, the fire dragon gradually disappeared.

Huang Bai watched this scene and nodded to himself, quite satisfied.

One talisman usually corresponds to only one spell.

However, cloud script can correspond to multiple spells.

This is the mystery of the Heavenly Book and Cloud Script.

After the Seven Treasures Jade Powder Pill transformed into an inner elixir, Huang Bai reopened the "Queen Mother of the West's Immortal Scripture".

On the jade slip, the cloud-like characters gathered and scattered unpredictably.

Huang Bai stared intently at the screen, muttering to himself:

"My foundation is the Immortal Corpse Dissolution Technique, and my path is the External Elixir..."

"The fourth time I'll have to figure it out myself."

Huang Bai knew very little about the Corpse Dissection lineage.

After all, the corpse disintegration was too fast back then because a trick was used.

If one can understand one's own foundation or learn the complete method of corpse dissolution, wouldn't that be more beneficial to one's path?

Thinking of this, Huang Bai suddenly had an idea.

"I have the lingering fragrance, so I might as well return to the world of 'Double Vision'."

As soon as this thought crossed his mind, a hint of reminiscence appeared in Huang Bai's eyes.

That's where the dream began.

The first world he truly traveled to was the world of Twin Pupils.

Huang Bai spent half a year in Taipei, accumulating a large sum of cash through the stock market and sports games.

Subsequently, he bribed officials with cash and successfully took over the Zhenxian Temple in the Science and Technology Building, obtaining the Five-Zhi Pill.

Back then, I didn't even have any real magic, let alone any elixir of immortality.

All I have to rely on is my knowledge of the plot and a bit of courage.

"Based on the plot at the time, it was determined that Xie Yali's sister had limited influence on reality, so official power was used to prevent Xie Yali's dismemberment, and a bomb was planted..."

"Thinking back now, it was really thrilling."

Huang Bai couldn't help but shake his head and smile.

Looking back now, he has actually discovered quite a few loopholes.

What if Sister Xie Yali could not only make bullets curve, but also stop bombs from exploding?

What if the True Immortal Temple has a backup plan beyond the original storyline?

The Heavenly Decree's mission at that time was to prevent Xie Yali from undergoing a physical transformation, not to eliminate him.

In fact, as long as one of the five demons is killed, rendering its prophecy invalid and causing it to miss the best opportunity for corpse liberation in this life, the mission can be completed without any major incidents.

Given the nature of Heavenly Decrees, the first world is usually not too difficult.

It's just that I overcomplicated things back then.

"In any case, this can be considered my first pot of gold."

Huang Bai took out the ember incense, lit it, and silently chanted "Double Eyes World" in his mind.

The incense burned slowly.

A plume of smoke rose and lingered in the air.

His eyes reflected the flickering incense smoke, like fireflies.

Soon, text appeared in the center of the Heavenly Decree.

[Heavenly Decree to Exterminate Demons: Proceed to the world of "Double Pupils" and slay the Corpse-Dissolving Immortal Huang Shang.]

"The Immortal of Corpse Dissection, Huang Shang..."

Huang Bai's eyes flickered slightly.

This Huang Shang is the person who created the Five Prisons Immortal Ascension Method in the story.

Unlike the Xie sisters, Huang Shang truly succeeded in achieving immortality through corpse liberation.

I just don't know how strong this person really is.

The yellowish-white figure slowly faded.

"I wonder how Xie Yali's sister would feel if she met me now?"

"Would you call this a triumphant return home?"

Returning to familiar places, returning home in glory.

It always gives people a sense of excitement.

Back then, when I almost got caught up with Xie Yali, I was just a young man in my early twenties.

Now, if you calculate his age, he's already a 150-year-old man.

Thinking of this, Huang Bai couldn't help but chuckle.

A 150-year-old man returns to the streets of a modern city.

It's quite interesting, actually.

Wow!

Inside the ancient temple, the yellow and white objects disappeared.

The temple returned to silence.

Taipei streets.

The streets were bustling with traffic and crowds.

Motorcycles sped by, their horns blaring so loudly they made people frown. Neon signs flashed along the roadside.

The betel nut beauty stood behind the glass window, her hot figure and coquettish voice attracting customers.

In the distance, tall buildings stand tall, and the GG screen flickers incessantly.

On the street, a stylishly dressed young man with long hair strolled slowly.

He was handsome and had a calm demeanor. Even though he was walking in the crowd, he seemed to be separated from the surrounding noise by an invisible distance.

People around them kept glancing at them.

Several girls pushed and shoved each other, finally mustering the courage to step forward and ask for contact information.

"Um... excuse me, could I please add your contact information?"

The girl had just spoken when she noticed a figure flash in front of her.

When I looked up again, the long-haired youth had disappeared into the crowd.

She stood there, stunned, looking around for a long time, before finally rubbing her eyes.

"Ah, the modern world I haven't seen in so long."

Huang Bai stood in the shadows at the street corner, taking a deep breath of the air, which was slightly tinged with exhaust fumes.

It's been at least a hundred years since I've been to a world with a modern setting.

After experiencing countless years in the heavens, looking at these everyday scenes now feels even more familiar.

Dong dong qiang!

The sound of gongs and drums could be heard from not far away.

Immediately afterwards, firecrackers went off in unison.

The crowd converged on a certain square.

Huang Bai followed the sound and walked closer to take a look.

A group of people dressed in ancient costumes, holding incense sticks, with their faces painted, paraded through the streets with strange steps.

Their steps were heavy, their shoulders swayed slightly, and their expressions were solemn with a hint of ferocity. Some carried instruments of torture, others had tokens hanging from their waists, and their faces were painted with black, white, red, and blue colors. As they marched, the rhythm of gongs and drums grew increasingly rapid.

This is the procession of the Eight Generals of Ksitigarbha Palace.

The air was thick with the scent of cigarette smoke, and firecracker scraps littered the ground.

Huang Bai looked at the front of the group and suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

"Oh, it's an old friend again."
