mountain ghost

Chapter 43 The Road to Cultivation
Lu Chen brought the camellia saplings back to the temple, just as the open space in front of the door had just been cleaned and refurbished, so he transplanted and planted them next to the mountain spring pool, which could directly absorb the water in the pool, saving even watering on weekdays.

"Starting today, you will grow here well."

As he spoke, he tamped the soil.

Lin Xiaofan beside him couldn't help leaning forward, and asked curiously, "Master Immortal, what exactly is this sapling? You seem to be attaching great importance to it?"

"This is a spiritual tea plant. If it grows into a plant, it will benefit endlessly in the future."

Lu Chen didn't explain too much to him, but just replied casually. When it came to tea, he remembered the pot Dan Yunzi gave him just now, and wanted to taste the mystery of this stone milk tea, but unfortunately, his broken The temple doesn't even have a pot, let alone a tea set.

This is embarrassing.

Do I have to knead a tea set out of mud?
Just thinking about it, Lin Xiaofan was very good at observing words and expressions, and when he heard Lu Chen say that it was a tea tree, he knew that he was interested, and immediately said courteously: "It turns out that the immortal master likes the way of drinking tea, and it happens that I have a set of purple clay that has been preserved for many years Pottery tea set, Xiaofan is not very good at it, so he didn’t use it, and put it aside, bring it to the immortal teacher to try it some other day?”

This guy is quite good at stitching things together.

Lu Chen wanted to refuse, but Lin Xiaofan said again: "Master Immortal, don't refuse, if you weren't there just now, the crane might not have saved me, so it's like I owe you another life, please let me express my gratitude anyway , otherwise I will feel uneasy."

After talking about this, Lu Chen no longer twitched, nodded, and agreed.

"Then it's settled. I'll go down the mountain and arrange for the villagers to enter the mountain to renovate the temple. Master Xian, do you think there is anything else that needs to be prepared here?"

Lin Xiaofan looked very excited.

Because he was most afraid that Lu Chen would reject his kindness.

As long as the other party is willing to accept it, it means that you have an opportunity, and of course you must firmly grasp it.

"There is really a small matter that needs you to do."

Lu Chen thought for a while, he did have one thing that Lin Xiaofan needed to do.

"I've been studying Go recently, and I want to find some books about it. If it's convenient, you can bring some for me next time."

"Chess records and the like? This is simple. My father was arty and collected a lot of things in this area, but now they are all in the library. If the fairy master needs them, I will have them all brought up later."

Lin Xiaofan said generously.

This made Lu Chen a little embarrassed, although he has not completely changed his view of Lin Xiaofan now, but it is not good to just take things from others for nothing.

I thought to myself, after studying Dan Yunzi's jade slips later, if there is really a suitable way to get started, maybe I can consider giving some advice.

"If there's nothing else to do, Master Xian, you can rest first, and I'll go down the mountain to make arrangements."

After finishing speaking, Lin Xiaofan went down the mountain excitedly.

Although I didn't get any substantial benefits from entering the mountain this time, I managed to close the relationship with the immortal master, and I barely got his initial approval. Next, as long as I can finish the renovation of the temple, Put the construction of trade roads on the agenda as soon as possible, and sooner or later you will be able to worship under the immortal master!
……

After Lin Xiaofan left, Lu Chen poured some water on the rapeseed in the field, then picked up the fishing rod, and while fishing, he took out the jade slip given by Dan Yunzi, and checked it.

"The Taishang said that there is no way to misfortune or good fortune, but people call upon themselves, and the retribution of good and evil follows each other like a shadow, so there is a god in heaven and earth..."

The first sentence of the opening is to quote the Taoist Taishang Induction.

It seems that this Dan Yunzi is indeed a practitioner from the Taoist lineage.

Lu Chen read carefully.

It was discovered that the Jade Slips recorded in great detail Dan Yunzi's many mental journeys of practicing and seeking the Tao, and some simple Qi-refining formulas were also mentioned in it. It belongs to the common goods in the practice world.

But in the mortal world, it is also a treasure that is hard to find.

Lu Chen's attention was not on this, but on Dan Yunzi's cultivation experience, to get a glimpse of the road of cultivation.

Like him, Dan Yunzi, who was just starting out in cultivation, fell into confusion like him. He didn't know how to go after Yunling.

"The living beings in the world have extraordinary insights and step into the realm of cultivation..."

"Regardless of human beings, gods, demons, and ghosts, the three thousand methods all lead to the same goal in different ways. First, use the body to accumulate the spirit, and when the spirit is full, you will see the realm of Xiyi. Search for dragons here to open up the yellow court, the house of essence, and refine the essence to transform energy. , and achieve mana..."

After reading the jade slips, Lu Chen realized something in his heart.

The practice system of this world is basically born out of the Taoist qi refiner, who refines essence to transform qi, refines qi to transform spirit, opens up the upper, middle and lower three dantians, conceives the five qi in the chest, gathers the three flowers on the top, and thus ascends. Seek the god of immortality.

Even demons, gods, ghosts, etc. are also applicable here, but there are slight differences on this basis.

For example, monsters have a few more natural thresholds than human practitioners. They need to develop their wisdom first, and then refine their bones. Another example is ghosts, who first refine their souls and focus on spiritual cultivation. Re-quench the essence.

Another example is the gods.

Except for those gods raised by nature who are born with the strength of immortals or above, other gods, whether they are the gods of incense and fire enshrined in the world, or the gods of ditches born from the earth, or the gods who are directly canonized by the heavens. To improve through practice.

It's just that some are completely dependent on the merits of incense, some are better at self-cultivation, and some are both.

The Lord of the Taihang Mansion, who controls the sixth-grade runes of the Taihang Mountains, can be regarded as a natural god.

But strictly speaking, Lu Chen is not a real god, he just stole the god's position by relying on the jade talisman.

Therefore, he does not have the cultivation base and strength of a natural god, and needs to improve himself through practice.

Of course, one good thing is that because he has refined a flesh and blood spirit, he can not only practice like a qi refiner, but also absorb powers such as incense merits and virtues to enhance his divine power.

'Practice and the so-called Shinto, in fact, do not conflict.Like the legend of the Conferred Gods List, aren't the gods on the list all Qi refiners who cultivate immortals?Like Erlang Xianshengzhenjun, after becoming a god, he still mainly relies on his own practice.This is the majestic avenue that preserves the chance of sanctification, with a higher ceiling. '

Lu Chen asked himself a little bit more.

How can I say that I am also a time traveler, so I must set a higher goal.

As for whether it can be done, we will talk about it later.

'In other words, next, I will continue to accumulate spiritual power, and then I will be able to gain insight into the so-called Xiyi realm, from which I will search for dragons, open the Jinggong Huangting, and then I will be able to refine mana and step into the next realm... ...'
