Bone Taoist

Chapter 853 Lingxu
"I want to find a way through the flowers, straight into the depths of the white clouds, with my noble spirit spreading across the red neon..."

Going up the lush rock forest road, a Taoist priest in a green robe holding a Taoist book was climbing up the mountain. His steps were light, as if he had practiced some secret method, but his mind was turbid, obviously a mortal body.

"Master, please stay."

A man's voice came from behind.

The man in green shirt stopped reciting poetry, turned around, and looked at the people behind him with some surprise.

These people seemed to have appeared here out of thin air, and he did not even notice when they climbed up the forest. This made the young man feel a little chilly, but he quickly calmed down because in this [Lingxu Mountain], no demons or evil spirits could enter.

These people are naturally Ye Zang, Yue Ling and Yu Chen.

They came here to explore the way, because hundreds of years have passed since Yu Wei discovered the spiritual spring vein in the central part. For cultivators, it may not be a long time, but for mortals, dynasties may have changed.

Moreover, just now on the flying boat, Ye Zang and others discovered that this mountain range had been occupied by some mortals.

"Who are you..." The Taoist in green shirt blinked and looked at Ye Zang and the other two in confusion.

"I heard that there are immortals living here, so I went up the mountain to seek the way to immortality." Yue Ling smiled and said casually.

"So you are here to seek the immortality and the way." The Taoist in green shook his head, touched his chin, looked at Ye Zang and the other two, then smiled and said, "My name is Wang Shan, and I am a lay Buddhist from Lingxu Temple. I have been practicing at the foot of the mountain for several years."

"Is that so... Please be kind enough to take us into the temple to pay homage to the Immortal." Ye Zang bowed and said casually.

Wang Shan paused, still sizing up Ye Zang and the other two, and said intently, "Looking at your complexion, it seems that you have practiced Taoism before. Where have you practiced Taoism before?"

"Master, you have good eyesight." Ye Zang said casually.

"We are only practicing some wild techniques, which cannot lead us to the great realm of immortality, so we come to Lingxu Mountain to seek the way." Yue Ling shook his head.

Wang Shan said in a deep voice, put down the Taoist book in his hand, and said: "Practicing Taoism, what matters is the fate of the immortals. This place is also located in the middle of Lingxu Mountain. You can come here, which can be regarded as entering the immortal gate. I am going to the temple to read in the morning, and come with me."

"Thank you, Taoist Priest." Yu Chen said.

"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. Whether you can enter the Immortal Gate is up to the temple master." Wang Shan shook his head and said with concentration: "The mountain road here is winding and rugged, and there is heavy fog. You have to follow closely."

As he spoke, Wang Shan smoothed his Taoist robe and continued walking into the mountains.

Ye Zang and others looked at each other and followed.

This mountain range is lush and green, and the mountains are filled with fog. From the outside, the spiritual energy seems thin, but when you are in it, you can still vaguely feel the spiritual energy bursting out from the earth veins.

"This is a great formation formed naturally by heaven and earth. No wonder no one has discovered it for such a long time." Ye Zang narrowed his eyes, looked around with his Dharma eyes, and spoke to the two of them with his spiritual sense.

“Could there be some monster lurking here?” Yue Ling blinked.

"I don't rule out this possibility, but I haven't sensed any demonic aura for the time being. I guess it's some kind of spiritual treasure from heaven and earth that's protecting this place." Ye Zang said casually.

Just when entering the mountain, Ye Zang's Dharma Eye discovered that there was an extremely hidden soul-protecting formation here, which seemed to be a maze formed naturally by the mountains and rivers of heaven and earth.

They had just arrived and didn't want to make too much noise, so they discussed it and decided not to force their way in.

Yu Wei asked Ye Zang and the other two to explore the way first, while he went to the surrounding areas of Lingxu Mountain to gather information to see if there were any Taoist sects or independent cultivators staying here.

After following Wang Shan for half an hour, Ye Zang discovered that this mortal was not tired at all. It seemed to be related to the Taoism he practiced, and Ye Zang was somewhat interested.

After climbing over a small hill, you can seem to see wisps of smoke coming from the distance.

The three of them looked forward with their sharp eyes and found a few simple palaces standing on a low hill.

The palace was very simple and could be built by an ordinary mortal craftsman in a few days. It seemed that local materials were used to build several pavilions for protection.

"Is that Lingxu Temple?" Yue Ling raised her eyebrows.

Wang Shan was breathing heavily. He was a mortal. He could climb mountains and winding roads without interruption, thanks to several years of practice. However, he was almost at his limit. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and immediately said, "The real person does not reveal his identity. Miss, have you ever heard that the great way is simple?"

"Okay." Yue Ling spread her hands.

At the foot of Lingxu Mountain, there is a natural and simple scenery, with lush vegetation and gurgling streams.

The rocky road is covered with moss, and it is easy to fall if you are not careful.

Wang Shan almost fell down, and Yue Ling helped him up, causing Wang Shan's face to turn red. He was also wondering why Ye Zang and others had such good physical strength and did not show any signs of fatigue at all.

"We're almost there... The master of the temple has seen that nature is the way of the great road. The ruggedness of this mountain road is also a kind of practice, which allows us to feel the brilliance of heaven and earth." Wang Shan wiped the sweat from his forehead while muttering to himself.

Ye Zang and the other two listened in silence.

When it comes to the way of nature, in the entire Dongsheng Shenzhou, only the Cangxuan Sect and the Luoying Valley have a say.

Cang Xuan's ancestor followed the path of nature. In the past, he had an indissoluble bond with the Saint Maiden of Luoying Valley, but it eventually came to nothing. There had also been exchanges of Taoist techniques between the two sects.

Although Cang Xuan was submerged, the Wanxiang Natural Dao that Yu Tianshi walked out of is still one of the most inherited factions in Dongsheng.

After climbing for another half an incense stick of time, I finally reached the top of the mountain.

Ye Zang looked up and found that Lingxu Temple did not even have a decent mountain gate. There was only a moss-covered stone tablet with the word "Lingxu" engraved on it in ancient characters.

"It's actually ancient writing?" Yue Ling asked in surprise.

"This stone tablet is very old. It doesn't look like something that was carved within the past few hundred years." Yu Chen said in surprise.

"Interesting." Ye Zang showed a strange smile on his face.

It seems that the formation of the spiritual spring vein here was not natural, but more like an ancient spiritual weapon that radiated magical power and gathered all the spiritual energy within tens of thousands of miles here, thus forming the spiritual vein.

As for the 'Lingxu Temple' which only appeared within the past hundred years, Ye Zang was even more interested in it.

"Mr. Wang, you are late again today. It seems that you have been slacking in your practice recently."

Just as he was thinking about it, a clear voice came from Lingxu Temple. The voice was indistinguishable between male and female, and was sonorous and powerful.

Then a middle-aged man in a green robe flew out.

When Ye Zang saw this person, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and his Dharma Eye saw through him. His true form really surprised Ye Zang, as it turned out to be an ancient spiritual stone!
