one person's life

Chapter 267 Tang Muzhi and Lao Tianshi

Tang Muzhidao: "I think of a person, Liu Yiming, the 11th generation master of Quanzhen Longmen. If we talk about the entire Quanzhen Taoism, the one who has the greatest relationship with "Journey to the West" is this Liu Yiming. He wrote a book on Dan Tao. From the perspective of explaining the "Original Purpose of Journey to the West" in "Journey to the West". He also has a book called "Tongguan Wen", which refers to some levels of cultivation for seekers, one of which is the 'Luohuo Pass'."

Zhuge Gong: "Oh, I was also thinking of Grandmaster Liu Yiming at first. He said that "Journey to the West" 'explains the principle of three religions and one family, and teaches the way of cultivating both life and life. As the saying goes, secrets are hidden in proverbs, and inner thoughts are revealed in jokes.' But I remember that this master was mainly active in Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia, and I am afraid he has not been to Baiyun Temple a few times. If he wants to build such an illusion, I am afraid that it will not be possible without several generations."

"Perhaps it was made by Baiyun Temple later." Tang Muzhi paused and said: "The Luohuo Pass of the Alchemy Way is the practice step of the Golden Alchemy Way, and it is indeed related to the illusion, the spiritual platform, and the Heart Monkey. , why don’t we go in and take a look?”

Zhuge Cheng nodded, "I just don't know where the red-tailed horse monkey has gone. It should be one of the three monkeys. It would be a pity if we didn't catch it."

"There's no rush. The flow of time in this illusion is inconsistent with the outside world. Maybe if we stay here for a few months, the outside world may only pass by as long as a stick of incense, and there will be plenty of time to find the monkey."

The two of them pushed open the front door of the mansion and entered. Unexpectedly, there were two people sitting cross-legged in the open-air courtyard waiting for them.

An old man and a young man, both of them are tall and imposing.The old man has a kind face. He is wearing a purple double-breasted cassock, calf-length and body-length sleeves. There are Taoist auspicious patterns embroidered with gold and silver threads, such as the sun, moon, stars, pagodas, dragons, phoenixes, cranes, etc. He stands in place, seemingly unhappy. No trace of breath is leaking out, but it has the momentum of a lion standing guard at a great pass. It is like standing in the center of a storm, giving people a sense of oppression as the storm is coming and the sky is darkening.

"Old Heavenly Master?!"

Zhuge Gong was stunned, how could the Heavenly Master appear in this illusion?Could it be that he also burned incense and came in?Why is this?Are you going to play with the two juniors here?And he looks like he’s about to fight, right?
"Illusion... look." Tang Muzhi patted Zhuge Gong on the shoulder and motioned for him to look towards the old man.

Zhuge Gong turned his attention and saw a young man standing next to the Heavenly Master with his hands on his back. He had a well-proportioned figure, arms and waist. He was dressed in rough cotton and linen clothes. His long hair was tied back in a simple bun. A strand of black hair naturally hangs down on the right side of his forehead. He has star-shaped eyebrows and sharp eyes. He looks at the two people in front of him with eyes that are as calm as dead water without a trace of ripples, calm and profound.

Zhuge Gong suddenly looked back at Tang Muzhi, then he felt relieved and said bitterly: "These two people can't be our opponents... It might be easier for you to deal with yourself, but let me fight with the old Tianshi. No chance of winning."

The old man is naturally Zhang Zhiwei, the old Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain and a member of the Heavenly Path; the young man is naturally another Tang Muzhi.

Tang Muzhi smiled and said: "This illusion reflects the imaginary enemy in our hearts, right? Brother Zhuge, did you summon the Heavenly Master or me?"

Zhuge Yuan thought for a moment and said cautiously: "I'm afraid the term 'imaginary enemy' is not very accurate, but this illusion projection is most likely the most perfect strong figure in our hearts. I think the person I summoned should be the old Celestial Master. ...To be honest, I have defeated my ideal self before, if there is another 'Zhuge Gong' standing here today, I have the confidence to defeat him."

Tang Muzhi said in surprise: "So, my 'imaginary enemy' is myself? Wouldn't it be a bit arrogant for me to think so?"

Zhuge Gong waved his hand: "What are you thinking? Many people are like this. In fact, a person's biggest enemy in life is himself. Only by defeating yourself can you be qualified to have a glimpse of the supreme scenery. This is the foundation, or it can be said to be the first level. Of course. For you, maybe you are the last one."

"In your opinion, is it possible for us to win?" "Tsk... let's put it this way, most people in the circle today don't have any thoughts of competition when they think of Master Tianshi. He and I are not on the same level. If this illusion really replicates the old heavenly master in my mind, then he is almost invincible—the limit of what I imagined as a stranger."

While the two were talking, the transformed "Old Heavenly Master" and "Tang Muzhi" had already walked towards the two of them together.At this time, their momentum has undergone a huge change.

The "Old Heavenly Master" stood there casually, like a high wall in front of Tang Muzhi and Zhuge Gong. An invisible pressure spread upward from the ground, giving people the feeling that the order of heaven and earth was about to get out of control, and the force of gravity was The feeling of being twisted.Blood energy accumulates in the soles of the feet, making people feel cold all over.Zhuge Cheng thought to himself, if there is dust in the fairy mansion, it must be flying upwards now.

The feeling of "Tang Muzhi" is similar to that of Lao Tianshi, but more restrained and profound. It is also breathless, but the feeling is more of fear than shock, and it feels like there is a sharp weapon on the back. His spine was bone-chilling, his hair stood on end, and his muscles were tense.A distorted emotional atmosphere spread, and Zhuge Gong stiffened and turned his head slightly to look at Tang Muzhi with squinted eyes.

If the threat of "Old Heavenly Master" is to make people feel that a volcano is about to erupt underground, knowing the destiny of death, and complete despair, then the threat of "Tang Muzhi" is like being sucked into the endless whirlpool of the deep sea. Unable to predict what will happen in the next second: twisted into pieces by huge power?Or will he be dragged into a lonely alien planet by this undersea black hole?No matter which one, it is no longer the power that the Qi Refiner can display.

"Now that things have come to an end, we can't avoid it. Let's give it a try." Tang Muzhi stepped forward steadily under the pressure. Zhuge Gong finally widened his eyes and used Qimen's visualization technique. Qi Guang seemed to Shooting from the eye sockets like a flashlight.

"You're right. Although I'm not very good at fighting as a warlock, it's worthwhile to be able to fight against an illusion of this level."

Tang Muzhi thought for a moment, then bowed his fists to the "Old Heavenly Master": "Tang Sect Tang Muzhi, please give me some advice from the Heavenly Master."

"Old Heavenly Master" opened his eyes slightly, revealing a dazzling golden light, sacred and solemn, he nodded slightly towards Tang Muzhi.

"You can really exchange opponents!" Zhuge Gong looked at the cold "Tang Muzhi" in front of him with a bit of toothache. To be honest, he would rather face the old master, which would only create a sense of powerlessness rather than fear.

"'Old Tang', it's easy to attack... eh!"

Zhuge Gong's eyes widened and he looked at a white line that spread out on his arm in horror.

Unable to move Qi, there was an incomparable pain in his meridians, which instantly made Zhuge Gong drip with cold sweat.

He thought he knew what the twisted atmosphere was like just now.
