Under One Person: I can manipulate magnetic fields!

After the Lu family's birthday banquet, his master brought him and his senior brother to the Celestial Master's Mansion, so he also knew Zhang Zhiwei.

He also knew how terrifying Zhang Zhiwei was; this man was practically a monster.

Only Brother Chen can compare to him.

"Yes, Senior Brother Zhang is a bit too strong."

Lu Jin gave a wry smile.

How come so many prodigies have emerged from their generation, such as Chen Yuan and Zhang Zhiwei?

"Although Master Zhang Zhiwei is not that handsome, his aura is very attractive."

Huang Fang was also staring at Zhang Zhiwei like a lovesick fool.

"You're being a bit too infatuated."

Wei Shufen couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"Sister Huang Fang is really..."

Fangying rolled her eyes.

However, this battle is definitely worth watching.

She could tell at a glance from the imposing aura and astonishing cultivation of this Taoist priest Zhang from the Celestial Master's Mansion.

Apart from that damned young master Chen Yuan, practically no one can compare to him.

"Such powerful life cultivation!"

Liu Dongyang also subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Zhang Zhiwei is too strong.

"Yes, senior brother."

Fang Dongtian also said seriously.

Their Quanzhen alchemy specializes in cultivating life force, but they are still a little lacking compared to this guy in front of them.

The Zhengyi sect learned a much wider range of things than they did, not to mention their knowledge of talismans.

But who would believe that he was completely crushed by his opponent in terms of life cultivation?

"You two kids know there's always someone better, huh? Look at them."

Xuan Yangzi couldn't help but look on with envy.

Zhang Jingqing, that bearded man, has taken in a prodigy! This kid's talent is truly astonishing; he has already cultivated to the level of Refining Qi into Spirit.

This kid is starting to get interested.

Why didn't the Quanzhen School produce a genius like that?

"Master Zhang Zhiwei's cultivation level..."

Lu Ci was also slightly startled.

Inside the training ground, Zhang Zhiwei stood there quietly, but the oppressive aura emanating from him was somewhat unsettling.

"Second brother, besides Chen, the only other one in our generation is Master Zhang. Both of them will be figures comparable to the Celestial Master and Master Zuo in the future."

Lu Ren also narrowed his eyes slightly.

He remembered that Zheng Yi didn't seem to mind marriage, and wondered if Zhang Zhiwei could win him over.

"Brother, although Master Zhang is powerful, can he reach the level of the Great Ying Immortal?"

Lu Ci couldn't help but ask.

"Master, this child's cultivation is truly remarkable."

Zuo Ruotong narrowed her eyes slightly.

This child is truly amazing.

Jin'er and Mu Xuan are already very talented, but they are still somewhat behind Zhang Zhiwei.

The only one who can be compared to Zhang Zhiwei is that kid Yuan'er.

Unfortunately, this is not actually one of their disciples.

"Brother Zuo, you flatter me. Although this kid has some talent in cultivation, he is still too reckless and needs more experience in dealing with people. After all, if he wants to become a Celestial Master and lead the entire Zhengyi sect, he still needs more than that."

Zhang Jingqing stroked his long beard and coughed.

Several disciples with the surname Mao could potentially inherit the position of Celestial Master, but his favorite was naturally Zhang Zhiwei. After all, although he liked to give this kid a stern talking-to, he also valued him the most.

"Master, if you don't like it, why don't you give it to me?"

Zuo Ruotong said half-jokingly.

If Zhang Jingqing is really willing, he won't be polite.

"Haha, Brother Zuo, you're joking."

Zhang Jingqing gave an awkward smile.

How is this possible?

"This guy is really intimidating."

Guan Shihua narrowed her slanted eyes. The oppressive feeling of the opponents she had encountered before was far less than that of Zhang Zhiwei in front of her.

This guy with the nose is a real expert.

"Interesting. Is this the power of immortals?"

Zhang Zhiwei stared at Guan Shihua with excitement. He could sense a peculiar power, which was extremely pure and powerful.

It seems to come from the realm of immortals.

The shamans in Northeast China truly live up to their reputation.

This battle looks like it's going to be quite interesting.

Chapter 492 Defying the Heavenly Dao! (Second Update)

At the foot of Longhu Mountain.

"Master, this Jiangxi-style steamed pork with rice flour tastes really good."

Cheng Chenglin was eating steamed pork with rice flour, his mouth dripping with oil.

"The earliest record of this steamed pork with rice flour can be traced back to Qu Yuan's 'Chu Ci' (Songs of Chu), which mentions 'steamed fragrant herbs and orchids.' Yuan Mei also clearly identified it as a Jiangxi dish in his 'Suiyuan Shidan' (The Suiyuan Menu). It uses pork with a good balance of lean and fat, stir-fried with rice flour until it turns yellow, mixed with soybean paste, and steamed. It is served on a bed of cabbage. When cooked, not only is the meat delicious, but the cabbage is also delicious. Because no water is used, the flavor is uniquely complete. It is a dish of Jiangxi people."

In the Jiangxi region, eating steamed pork with rice flour on the day of Lixia (the beginning of summer) is a fixed traditional custom, called "Shengxia" (撑夏).

Mei Heming spoke eloquently.

"Master, I don't understand what you're saying. Does this dish really have so much history?"

Cheng Chenglin was dumbfounded.

However, he hadn't expected them to come to Jiangxi this time.

I was doing just fine in Hangzhou, so why did I end up in Jiangxi?

But he had long wanted to visit Longhu Mountain, which he had heard was a blessed land of Taoism.

"That's natural. Don't judge anything by its appearance, Chenglin. The same applies to being a person. You must cultivate your character."

Mei Heming continued.

He naturally came to find Chen Yuan because of Xue Laoguai's instructions.

I also came to meet my senior brother's disciple, Xia Liuqing.

"Master, I understand."

Cheng Chenglin nodded hurriedly.

His master's words made a lot of sense. He had learned a lot from him. Recognizing a master was not just about learning skills, but also about taking the relationship between the two of them a step further.

They've almost become father and son.

He understood the saying, "A teacher for a day is a father for life."

"That's good. Chenglin, you have great talent. Cultivate diligently, and you will surely reach my level in the future, or even surpass me."

Mei Heming smiled.

Cheng Chenglin has quite a bit of talent.

In the future, he will definitely inherit his mantle, and may even be able to create his own path.

He never expected his disciples to adhere to old rules; after all, he was also a person who liked innovation.

Even with the divine mask, his divine mask was completely different from his senior brother's.

"I haven't really been around the circle of extraordinary people at the Celestial Master's Mansion on Longhu Mountain, so I'm actually looking forward to it."

Mei Heming's eyes narrowed.

the other side.

"I've heard that the Northern Emperor Sect forbids its disciples from reciting or reading Buddhist scriptures, regarding Buddhism as a major taboo and being at odds with it. Is this true?"

Mr. Liu smiled slightly and then asked.

He had heard that the Northern Emperor faction and the Buddhist sect were sworn enemies.

They didn't even get along well with the disciples of the Zhengyi and Quanzhen schools.

"Pretty much, Senior Brother Liu. Since the An Lushan Rebellion during the Tianbao era of the Tang Dynasty, the attitude of the imperial court towards various Taoist sects has been very changeable. The Northern Emperor Sect opposes Buddhism and worships ghosts, which is significantly different from other Taoist sects that worship gods and alchemy and cultivate themselves. This inevitably caused them to be ostracized by the orthodox Taoist sects such as the Zhengyi Sect and Quanzhen Sect. Later, when Emperor Xuanzong of Tang ascended the throne, he promoted Buddhism and suppressed Taoism. The Buddhist sect launched a counterattack, and the Northern Emperor Sect once again fell into a catastrophic disaster."

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, the Northern and Southern Dynasties saw frequent bloody confrontations between Buddhism and Taoism. After the Northern Wei and Northern Zhou dynasties carried out two large-scale persecutions of Buddhism, Taoists took the opportunity to reshape the orthodoxy of Taoism, but regarded the Northern Emperor faction as an evil art that "defied the way of heaven" and continued to suppress it.

Then, during the Northern Song Dynasty, Emperor Taizong issued an edict banning the practice of black magic, ordering the destruction of the ancestral temple on Magu Mountain, and severing the political ties between the Northern Emperor sect and the imperial family. During the reign of Emperor Huizong, the Shenxiao sect rose to prominence, accepting some of the Northern Emperor's techniques but incorporating them into a larger, more orthodox lineage. By the Jin and Yuan dynasties, the Quanzhen sect suppressed the Northern Emperor sect, using the dual cultivation of body and mind and the fusion of the three teachings to win the favor of the rulers, almost completely eliminating the Northern Emperor sect's space for survival.

Lin Shengyue said with a smile.

When the Northern Emperor Sect was passed down to their generation, only he and another senior brother remained.

However, he later betrayed the Northern Emperor Sect, leaving only his senior brother as his successor.
