Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune starts from Tianshi Mansion.

Chapter 449 448. Leniency (Two chapters in one)

"Master Brother?" Li Wanqiu looked at Shen Xi in surprise.

Shen Xi said calmly, "I can't enter Penglai anymore. The Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain in the Tang Dynasty has already taken control of the place very deeply. If they really want to wipe out all the ancient talisman sects, I think they have the ability to find us in this world, but since the Penglai incident, they have not made any further moves."

Li Wanqiu fell into deep thought after hearing this.

Shen Xi: "Maybe, it's because of the Wanfa Sect Altar."

Li Wanqiu raised his head: "From the earliest Black Emperor in the North, to the White Emperor in the West and the Red Emperor in the South, they all coveted the Ten Thousand Laws Sect Altar and the Heavenly Master Seal of the Heavenly Master Mansion in Longhu Mountain? But we don't have it..."

Shen Xi: "The Central Yellow Emperor Yan Keji, the White Emperor Han Qingtao, and the Red Emperor Li Hang also had relevant discussions.

Although I am not very clear about the specific details, I can infer from the Penglai ruins that whether it is the Human Kingdom or the restoration of the Heavenly Palace, if they want to become a big country, they cannot do without the Heavenly Master Seal or the Ten Thousand Laws Altar. "

He had no intention of getting involved in related matters, and in the later period, he seldom participated in the secret discussions between Yan Keji, Li Hang and Han Qingtao.

Whether the Southern Jin Dynasty succeeded in establishing a human kingdom or not was not very important.

As long as Gongsun Daoqi can maintain his life and make it easier for the Shushan Sect of the Southern Jin Dynasty to withstand the pressure from the Buddhist sects in the north and south, it will be enough.

But the bad news is that the previous changes in Penglai caused Gongsun Daoqi's injuries to recur.

Li Wanqiu hesitated and said, "Master, is it possible that... the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion didn't come to cause trouble for us, so do they have other plans? Like leaving bait to lure you into a trap or something like that.

Or maybe they are afraid of Xumi and Saha and don't want to make any big moves in our world?"

Shen Xi: "It's not impossible, but the chances are slim."

He looked at Li Wanqiu and said slowly: "It is connected with us here. The reason why the Jiangzhou Lin Clan in that human world has suddenly been active recently is because there, the human dynasty in that human world has undergone tremendous changes.

Rumor has it that there were immortal masters who existed before the great catastrophe at the end of the Han Dynasty, and the lineage of the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain in the Tang Dynasty had a great influence in it, and was the one who laughed last, or at least one of the final winners. "

The Jiangzhou Lin Clan is currently active, which has attracted Shen Xi's attention, but he currently knows only limited details.

However, the information currently known is enough to outline a thrilling outline.

Li Wanqiu was shocked when he heard what Shen Xi said: "Does the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain in the Great Tang Dynasty have a strong man above the Ninth Heaven?"

Shen Xi: "As far as the Jiangzhou Lin Clan knows, no."

Li Wanqiu was even more shocked: "This is really, really..."

Even with the Penglai incident that happened before, he still felt shocked and unbelievable.

However, if the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain in the Tang Dynasty is really so powerful, then instead of coming to settle accounts with the Human Kingdom of Southern Jin, it seems that they really don't care much about this aspect.

It seemed that Li Wanqiu and others were overly suspicious.

Shen Xi: "All of this is just speculation at the moment. I need to meet the current Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain to find out the truth."

Li Wanqiu: "Master, what you said makes sense, but it is still a bit risky for you to go there directly."

The Shushan School of the Southern Jin Dynasty has often been known as a holy place for one person for many years.

The reason is that Shen Xi stands out while the others are mostly mediocre.

The real situation inside is certainly not that exaggerated.

Faced with pressure from both northern and southern Buddhist sects, the Shushan Sect of the Southern Jin Dynasty used the Southern Jin Human Kingdom to secretly hide part of its strength.

Gongsun Daoqi and others were among them.

What is made public is just the tip of the iceberg.

But even so, as the current top master of the Shushan School of Southern Jin and the only high-level Mahayana master of the Ninth Heaven, Shen Xi is still like a pillar that supports the sky.

If Shen Xi was killed, the Shushan Sect of Southern Jin would not only lose half its life, but it might also be unable to recover.

Under the current background of the Two Jin Dynasties, even if something seems certain, Shen Xi, Li Wanqiu and others have to be more cautious.

Shen Xi: "Junior brother, your concern is correct, but we don't have that much time to waste."

Gongsun Daoqi's condition is becoming increasingly unstable. At the same time, with the frequent movements of the Jiangzhou Lin clan on the shore, news has leaked out. Shen Xi knows it, and people from other forces in the outside world may also know it.

More changes may occur by then.

"Senior Brother Head..."

After hesitating for a moment, Li Wanqiu said softly, "Even if the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion doesn't mind our sect using the ancient talisman to practice, but... at best they will acquiesce and won't support or encourage us to do so, let alone help us, right?"

Shen Xi remained silent.

Compared to his own safety on this trip, Li Wanqiu's words really hit the nail on the head about what Shen Xi had been most worried about during this period of time.

But even so, he had to go through this journey.

"I will go and come back quickly, so as not to be summoned by His Majesty or to be discovered by the monks of Xiaoxitian."

Shen Xi said goodbye to Li Wanqiu and went straight to Jiangzhou.

When he arrived in Jiangzhou, he kept a low profile and hid his identity for the sake of secrecy.

The void portal is still some distance away from the ancestral land of the Jiangzhou Lin clan. Even if Lin Xiaoyi herself arrived near the void portal after leaving the ancestral land, it would still be difficult for her to discover Shen Xi, whose cultivation level is higher than hers.

Shen Xi had no intention of fighting with anyone, so he retracted his body, and his entire body seemed to melt and disintegrate into the void.

He quietly passed through the void portal, left the world of the Two Jin Dynasties, and headed for the world of the present Han Dynasty.

There is also the Shushan School among the Han people today. Shen Xi has already learned about this through the people of the Jiangzhou Lin clan of the Han Dynasty who went to the Jin Dynasty.

However, he currently does not have the extra time or energy to contact the Shushan Sect of the Han Dynasty.

As for the people in the Two Jin Dynasties, he acted in secret, not wanting to be away for too long, while also avoiding more people knowing about it.

However, Shen Xi did not go straight to Longhu Mountain.

He went to the Bashu area among the Han people today to observe for a while.

As expected, after the people of the Tang Dynasty were connected with the Han people today, in addition to the Tianshi Mansion lineage of Longhu Mountain, there was also a lot of exchanges between the Shushan sects.

The Shushan Sect of the Tang Dynasty currently has representatives among the Han people today.

Xie Yiying looked at the young Taoist priest in front of her with some surprise. He was wearing cloth clothes and hemp shoes, just like her, and was dressed like a Shushan monk.

"I am Shen Xi, a disciple of Shushan, and I come from Southern Jin." Shen Xi said simply.

Xie Yiying's original intention of coming to the Han Dynasty was to visit the fellow master who had previously borrowed the Ziwei Sword.

Although everyone in the Shushan Mountain of the Tang Dynasty speculated that the other party was his uncle Chen Donglou, only the Ziwei Sword returned afterwards, and Chen Donglou himself never appeared again.

This time, Xie Yiying came here, contacted the Shushan Sect of the Han Dynasty, and investigated everywhere, but still could not get any solid clues or evidence, and everyone was confused.

At this moment, he suddenly met Shen Xi.

The person in front of him was definitely a high-level Taoist master of the ninth heaven of the weapon-refining school, and a direct descendant of Mount Shu.

As a fellow swordsman, Xie Yiying is particularly sensitive.

In front of him was a great swordsman from the ninth heaven.

Southern Jin?

It should be another world...

Xie Yiying had all kinds of guesses in his mind, but he heard that the other party had no intention of visiting the Shushan Sect of the Han Dynasty or the Shushan Sect of the Tang Dynasty, but hoped to visit the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain first.

Such an abnormal behavior made Xie Yiying feel suspicious.

Shen Xi said calmly: "I heard that the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion of the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty are now inherited from the same lineage. In order to avoid being rude, could you introduce me to Longhu Mountain on the Han Dynasty side?"

Xie Yiying said, "I will try to contact fellow Taoists from Longhu Mountain first. Brother Shen... please forgive me."

Shen Xi waited calmly: "It should be so."

Chu Kunxian, who was at the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain of the Han Dynasty, was startled when he received the news.

In the Two Jin Dynasties, the head of the Shushan Sect, Shen Xi...

Eastern Qing Emperor.

Why did the other party come to our door so brazenly?

Xu Yuanzhen is currently in Kunlun, so Chu Kun does not have to worry about the other party coming forcefully. After notifying Lei Jun and Xu Yuanzhen separately, he simply invites them to visit Longhu Mountain in the Han Dynasty.

Shen Xi calmly went to the appointment.

When the two sides met, he frankly stated his purpose.

"This matter is beyond the decision of this poor Taoist." Chu Kun said: "If it is convenient for Sect Leader Shen, please go to the Tang Dynasty. Our sect leader invites you."

Shen Xi: "This is exactly what I wish for. However, in order to avoid misunderstandings, I have to trouble Daoist Xie and Daoist Chu a lot."

.....................

The world of the Tang Dynasty.

Inside the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain.

Lei Jun is currently in the Shangqing Lei Mansion Cave.

The Mahayana path and the mysterious universe unfold.

In the vast universe and starry space, Lei Jun sat cross-legged quietly.

With himself as the center, the seven qi of Haoling continue to flow.

Seven-point White Light came into being.

In contrast, there is a brilliant golden rainbow light, also condensed.

The golden rainbow is so heavy and condensed that it looks like a solid.

This was no longer the flawless golden rainbow that Lei Jun had obtained from the people of the Jin Dynasty.

That flawless golden rainbow came from the Saha world, and after endless tempering, it became graceful and beautiful day by day and on earth.

Then, it was refined into Lei Jun's body.

Then, it was polished by the seven parts of Haoling Qi and contrasted with the seven parts of white light, so it was formed as if a rainbow light condensed like gold and iron was formed in front of it.

The origin is clearly stated there, and it has been practiced by the senior brother Wang Guiyuan, so Lei Jun has no intention of changing the name in an original way. He still calls this level of magic the Infallible Golden Rainbow, which, like the seven parts of white light, all come from the seven qi of Haoling.

But the effect is completely opposite.

Compared to the condensed and sharp seven-part white light, the effect of the current flawless golden rainbow is closer to the five-colored cloud and is a treasure that protects the way.

As Lei Jun's mind moved, seven parts of the white light disappeared, leaving only a flawless golden rainbow that surrounded him from top to bottom, completely round and flawless, without a single flaw.

At first glance, it looked like a high-ranking cultivator from the Danding Sect opening up his great elixir and releasing it.

Then, colorful auspicious clouds spread in all directions and enveloped Lei Jun from the outside, protecting him and the impeccable golden rainbow in the center.

In this way, Lei Jun's own protection is stronger. Even if the Heavenly Master's Robe and the Taiqing Eight Scenery Treasure Cape are not counted, the defense is still extraordinary. Well, in the words of the eldest brother, there is a little more sense of security... Lei Jun nodded silently.

Compared with other monks at the same level, his best abilities have always been attack and insight.

Adhering to Lei Jun's consistent ideas of cultivation, his cultivation in these two aspects is extraordinary.

Then comes the body movements and speed.

Further down...it's actually recovery power.

Possessing the Liang Yi Immortal Body and Yin Yang Infinite Star Brilliance, Lei Jun's mana recovery speed actually crushes most opponents of a similar realm.

The reason why he showed signs of exhaustion at times was actually because he pushed himself too hard.

Again, the ultimate output burst in exchange for an unconventional attack that is beyond everyone's expectations, opening fire on the enemy first and ending the battle quickly, has always been Lei Jun's idea.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to achieve such amazing results.

In fact, his total amount of mana and recovery speed are the best among cultivators of the same level, and few can match him.

If an ordinary cultivator were to cast spells like him, let alone three or two moves, he would probably run out of energy before he could hurt the enemy with one move.

Or conversely, if Lei Jun attacked with the same strength as most cultivators, relying on his own foundation and the ability of the talisman sect to borrow the laws of nature and constantly recover his energy, it is no exaggeration to say that he could continue to use his magical powers until someone on either side of the enemy dies of old age.

On the contrary, although Lei Jun's own defensive power was also outstanding and he had rarely been injured in the past, he did not have a clear gap with other masters of the same level.

To some extent, this is also related to his long-term pursuit of the idea of ​​firing on the enemy first.

Now with the addition of the flawless golden rainbow, Taoist Master Lei's own defense method has become more and more outstanding.

He continued to hone himself, and his Haoling Qi was constantly polished, until the flawless golden rainbow gradually became richer.

Lei Jun is currently practicing in seclusion, but he is not in a state of death.

Somehow, he felt something in his heart, and began to collect his energy, and then left the Shangqing Leifu Cave Heaven.

Deep in the pupils of his eyes, the light of the Heaven-Connecting and Earth-Transmitting Dharma Talisman quietly flowed, illuminating the all directions through the Jade Purity Zhoutian Dharma Mirror and the Star River Sky Net.

A looming figure came into Lei Jun's sight.

It was Shen Xi, the leader of the Shushan Sect of the Southern Jin Dynasty.

Out of confidentiality considerations, Shen Xi came alone to the Tang Dynasty and to the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain.

Lei Jun and Chu Kun gave him a certain degree of trust, and Shen Xi did not disappoint them. He rushed to the Tang Dynasty and visited the contemporary Taoist master Lei Jun in a low-key manner.

"I already know about the situation of Master Shen and your sect."

Lei Jun said calmly, "I and Senior Sister Xu of our sect have sorted out the Penglai-related relics, so even if there are related talismans scattered outside, they will gradually be affected and lose their effectiveness."

Shen Xi said softly: "Master, please be merciful. I beg you to help my master.

Our sect is weak and has nothing to repay you for. As for one of your sect’s three great caves, the Yuqing Miro Cave, it once appeared in the human world of Dajin in the past.

However, as the Great Jin Dynasty, which once ruled the country, was divided into the Northern and Southern Jin Dynasties, the whereabouts of the Yuqing Miluo Cave Heaven is currently unknown.

Before I came here, I have been searching for a long time, but have not found anything. From now on, everyone in our sect will do their best to search for me. However, my master's health is getting worse and worse, so I have no choice but to come to see the Heavenly Master first. I hope the Heavenly Master will forgive me."

"Our sect is indeed looking for Yuqing Miro Cave Heaven. Sect Leader Shen is interested."

Lei Jun said: "Our sect is not incompatible with the ancient talisman sect. There is no grudge between our two sects in the past or today. Sect Master Shen is upright and open-minded, and I have no intention of making things difficult for your sect.

It’s just that our sect’s Daoism has changed its era name a long time ago, and even if we give other Daoists talismans, it is for the purpose of strengthening contacts and helping each other, rather than passing on the Daoism like the Daoist countries in the human world.”

Regarding what Shen Xi said, Lei Jun will have to observe carefully.

As the contemporary Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu, he can tolerate the Taoist Kingdom of Southern Jin, but he will never take the initiative to continue to encourage the other party's current ancient talisman school to grant talismans and transmit edicts, nor will he reverse himself and grant talismans to Shen Xi and Gongsun Daoqi to replace Shen Xi and become the new Eastern Green Emperor.

He would not change the layout of Penglai either.

Otherwise, while leaving a loophole for Shen Xi and Gongsun Daoqi, it would also be equivalent to leaving potential loopholes for others.

Especially for the old people of Tiangong.

However, the other party's situation is special, and Shen Xi came here on his own initiative today. Lei Jun is willing to find other ways to give him a helping hand.

He didn't want to keep Shen Xi in suspense, and said directly: "Take this treasure back to your respected teacher."

As Lei Jun spoke, a green light flashed and landed in front of Shen Xi.

Shen Xi was a little surprised. He looked closely and saw that it was a jade ruyi.

His cultivation, comprehension, and vision were also extraordinary. He only looked at Yu Ruyi for a few times and saw some clues:
This jade ruyi is also a product of the ancient Taoist tradition of talismans.

Shen Xi quickly thought of some rumors he had heard among the Han people before, and guessed that this treasure might have come from the Longhu Mountain lineage of the former Han Dynasty, but it was seized by Lei Jun and others.

But for Shen Xi, the current harvest has already made him breathe a sigh of relief.

After receiving the Jade Ruyi, Shen Xi thanked Lei Jun solemnly: "Thank you, Master. This time when I return to the human world of the Two Jin Dynasties, I will do my best to find the Yuqing Miro Cave Heaven."

Lei Jun returned the greeting: "In that case, I would like to thank Master Shen first."

Shen Xi: "I am eager to go home now, so I will not bother you any more. I hope I can have a chance to visit you in the future, and also see the origin of our sect in other human worlds."

After saying goodbye to Lei Jun, he went down the mountain immediately, left the Tang Dynasty, passed through the Han Dynasty, and returned to Southern Jin.

"Brother, how credible are his words?" Chu Kun, who was still in the Han Dynasty, communicated with Lei Jun through the telepathic talisman.

Lei Jun: "Young Senior Sister is currently in seclusion, so we are missing an authority to make judgments. However, based on our current observations, we can wait and see what happens."

He then asked Chu Kun, "Third Junior Brother, your accumulation of Divine Court Middle Scene should be quite deep. In the near future, you can achieve the third level of the eighth heaven and cultivate the Divine Court Outer Scene?"

Chu Kun: "Excuse me, Senior Brother, but I do have this plan."

Lei Jun said, "The Daoist reform in Dahan is on track. You can return to the Great Tang Mountain Gate to practice in seclusion. Senior Sister Zhang will go to Dahan to take over your place."

Chu Kun: "In that case, thank you for your hard work, Senior Sister Zhang."

Lei Jun: "What is the current situation of the struggle for succession in the Han Dynasty?"

Chu Kun: "They have already torn their faces apart and started fighting."

After Lei Tianshi left the modern Han world and returned to the Tang world, the fight for the throne of the Han Dynasty finally entered a white-hot stage.

On the surface, everyone is still trying to maintain a balance.

But as time went on, various forces made their own bets behind the scenes, and the situation became increasingly serious.

By now, a full-scale fight had officially broken out around the capital Chang'an.

However, even though Lei Jun himself has returned to the Tang Dynasty, he is still keeping an eye on the movements of Longhu Mountain as he is still fighting for the throne among the Han people.

Although the battle is in full swing, neither force dares to expand easily. No matter how fierce or even bloody it is, it is still confined to a certain range, which is somewhat like building a temple in a snail shell.

There is no other reason.

The Heavenly Master of Mount Longhu has already expressed his stance.

Lei Jun does not support either side.

In this case, at least we cannot become the party opposed by Longhu Mountain.

Therefore, all the masters of the royal family who were fighting for the throne in the Han court tried their best to avoid involving Longhu Mountain.

"What about Xumi?" Lei Jun asked Chu Kun.

Chu Kun: "The Sumeru Treasure Department has made some moves, but the Treasure Department's leader, Vandatta, is not seen."

Lei Jun nodded slightly: "Senior Sister Zhang has already gone to your place. When you come back after the handover, we can talk again when we have time."

After Chu Kun returned to the mountain, he reported to Lei Jun, the head of the sect. After being entrusted with the task and meeting his master Yuan Mobai, he began to practice in seclusion.

In the following days, Lei Jun continued to focus on his own practice.

In addition to this, he also teaches his disciples.

In addition to his second apprentice Han Xiaofei, Tang Xiaotang's apprentice Cheng Rongrong has also frequently attended Lei Jun's lectures during this period.

“It’s progressing rapidly.”

Lei Jun and Yuan Mobai talked about the two's progress in cultivation: "Judging from the current progress, I'm afraid we should consider whether to make an exception and teach them the Dharma in advance, just like we did with our junior sister back then."

Due to time constraints, Cheng Rongrong and Han Xiaofei were ordained one year after their ordination.

If you miss that ordination, there will be a gap of six years until the next one.

For others, six years is not a lot of time.

However, Cheng Rongrong and Han Xiaofei's speed of improvement in the initial stage was even faster than that of Chu Kun, Qin Caiwei and others in their early years.

On the one hand, with the surge of spiritual energy from heaven and earth, the general environment is more conducive to the progress of young cultivators.

On the other hand, they have better innate talents, while some opportunities of Chu Kun and Qin Caiwei depend on acquired ones.

"Yes, although they are still inferior to Junior-Junior Naughty Xiaotang, their speed of improvement is still among the best throughout history." Yuan Mobai nodded with a smile.

Lei Jun: "In terms of age, unless something unexpected happens, they don't need to rush for two or three years. However, the obstacles between the great realms of cultivation are hard to predict, so they still cannot be taken lightly."

For the vast majority of cultivators in the world, the path of cultivation is always to be as fast as possible.

The first quarter of your life is the golden window period for spiritual practice. You should use it to improve your cultivation, forge ahead, and climb vertically continuously.

Wait until the next plateau period when progress slows down, and then start horizontal expansion.

This is why when a cultivator is at his own plateau period, it is often praised as the peak stage of his actual combat power.

But there are always exceptions to everything.

People like Lei Jun, Xu Yuanzhen, Tang Xiaotang, etc. are difficult to judge based on common sense.

"Both Junior Brother Hua Rong and Hua Fei are extremely talented, so we should teach them according to their aptitude."

Lei Junyan said: "Sometimes, they themselves are the ones who know their own situation best. It's better to listen to their own thoughts on relevant matters."

Yuan Mobai smiled: "Master, what you said is very true."

The master and the disciple were chatting when suddenly Lei Jun's expression moved slightly.

He turned his gaze to the north.

Yuan Mobai followed his gaze and gradually felt something in his heart.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the Tang Dynasty suddenly began to undergo drastic turbulence and changes.

The source of the change lies in Luoyang City, the capital of the Tang Dynasty today.

Master Lei Jun and his disciple felt the change in spiritual energy, retracted their gazes, and looked at each other:

"Your Majesty, take the final step!"
