Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune starts from Tianshi Mansion.

Chapter 528 527. I will be the Grandmaster from today! ( words, three chapters in one)

Another person who is in a similar situation to Feng Ting is Qin Caiwei.

Among the third generation disciples on Mount Longhu, she is the highest in terms of cultivation level, except for Zhuo Baojie.

Qin Caiwei has already reached the fourth level of the eighth heaven, and is currently preparing to reach the ninth heaven Mahayana realm. She has been in seclusion for a lot of meditation in recent years.

Although she has left Bai Mei, her current practice is on the right track.

If she can pass the chasm between the eighth and ninth heavens, she will become the second Mahayana cultivator among the three generations of disciples in Longhu Mountain.

As she grew older, she took on various tasks in the palace and handled them all properly, so she was still well-respected.

Therefore, even though most people inside and outside Longhu Mountain did not know about her relationship with Bai Mei, in the eyes of the public, she still had a chance to compete for the title of New Heavenly Master.

But Qin Caiwei herself is not interested in this.

"There's no need to rush. Let Baobao train for a while longer. After he finishes his term as a teacher at the Taoist Academy, he can be sent out to patrol." Lei Junyan said.

Chu Kun nodded slightly.

Lei Jun then asked, "Brother, have you gained anything more from the Abyss of Time?"

Chu Kun: “There is good news and bad news.

The good news is that my situation now seems more like chance than human error.

The bad news is that I vaguely feel that there seems to be a huge change brewing in the world of Confucianism, but it is vague and I don’t know why.”

Lei Jun: "The situation over there is already chaotic. In addition to the intervention of the Demon Buddha, the dispute between the new and old Confucianism has reached an extremely fierce level.

It's just that in the past two years, because the extraterritorial demons have invaded again, both the new and old Confucianism have been affected, so the two sides have temporarily put aside their conflicts and worked together to deal with the extraterritorial demons and even the descendants of the Demon Buddha.

As the attacks of the extraterritorial demons gradually subside again, the contradiction between the new and old Confucianism may no longer be suppressed.

What's more, Mr. Beichen might be planning something."

Chu Kun: "Let's go to the Abyss of Time in Wujian together."

Lei Jun: “That’s exactly what I meant.”

When they arrived at Wujian, they met up with Wang Guiyuan, and the third senior brother met for a detailed discussion.

Chu Kun took out his Jiuhua Kunyuan Ding, and with the help of Wang Guiyuan, he relied on the magic weapon to place many talismans around the Abyss of Time in front of him, gradually forming a complex formation.

Lei Jun did not offer any advice this time.

The magic power gathered into a huge black and white Tai Chi diagram, hanging above the Abyss of Time, and Lei Jun sat quietly on the Tai Chi diagram.

As his magic power circulated, the Blue Sky, one of the Nine Heavens, and the Yellow Spring, one of the Ten Earths, shook slightly at this moment.

In the blue sky and the underworld, an illusory figure appeared, sitting upright on a lotus. It was none other than Lei Jun's body of Taiyi Emperor, who was responding to the call.

The two illusory figures stood in front of him, each forming a spell.

Lei Jun himself is currently in Wujian, sitting on the black and white Tai Chi diagram, and is also making the same movements.

Then one could see a ray of light falling from the Tai Chi diagram beneath his body, covering the abyss of time below.

At this moment, in the abyss of time, a figure of Emperor Taiyi gradually began to emerge, responding to the voice.

It’s just that the turbulence of time and space in the abyss is too complicated and the changes are too drastic.

Lei Jun followed the sound and used the power of Taiyi Emperor's body to enter, but in the blink of an eye he was twisted and torn into half of his body.

Lei Jun responded calmly and remained unmoved.

He simply condensed his Dharma body in the endless space as quickly as possible.

Although the newly condensed Dharma body soon shattered again, the cycle continued over and over again without ever becoming discouraged or impatient.

As time goes by, the years pass, and the time that Lei Jun can stay in the Abyss of Time with the power of Taiyi Emperor can become longer and longer.

The Dharma body became more and more perfect and round.

In contrast, in the Confucian world, as Lei Jun and Chu Kun estimated, after the unrest brought by the extraterritorial demons gradually eased, the contradictions between the new and old Confucianism immediately became acute again, and the conflict became more intense.

Zhang Wantong and Xiao Chunhui also quickly sent back the news through Xu Yuanzhen:
The two top masters of Confucianism in the world, Yan Aoyun and Wu Hailin, both of whom are at the third level of Confucian saints and are known as the King of Su, finally had a head-on battle recently.

Although the winner was not determined immediately, the head-on confrontation between the two of them completely ignited the war between the new and old Confucianism.

In the vast world of Confucianism, all major Confucian schools and academies are basically involved in it, and it is difficult for anyone to stay out of it.

However, as the two sides were fighting each other, some people had other ideas and acted secretly.

Zhang Wantong has recently paid more attention to Lian Feng, the master of Shuofeng Mountain, and the new school of Yanzhao.

Lian Feng and others had no intention of sitting back and watching the fight between two tigers.

Confucianism was also their enemy.

But there were undercurrents within the new Confucianism, and it was not just Lian Feng and others who were involved.

Among the mountains of Quzhou, a man came alone, walking from west to east.

He was dressed like a young man from an aristocratic family, had great literary talent, and looked no more than twenty years old.

He seemed to be on an outing, enjoying the mountains and rivers, and he was the only one among the desolate mountains and wilderness.

When they arrived at the lake in the mountains, the young man from a noble family stopped, looked at the lake, and stood silently.

After a moment, he looked straight ahead and said, "I never thought that it was the owner of Wei Yu Zhai who came in person. I am honored."

"Mr. Huo, you are too polite. Since you have come here in person, how dare I be rude?"

A middle-aged scholar suddenly appeared by the lake and came to the side of the young master of the aristocratic family: "Please give my regards to your father. Since we parted that year, not seeing you for a day feels like a long time."

He had previously been in contact with other members of the Huo family in Yuanzhou, but now a new person had suddenly come over. Although he had seldom dealt with them before, the young man in front of him was no stranger to the cultivators in the entire Confucian world.

Because this Mr. Huo, Huo Feihuo, is the grandson of the eldest branch of the Huo family in Yuanzhou and the most outstanding rising star of the younger generation.

For many people, perhaps they should no longer consider the other party as a junior, as his cultivation level and strength are increasing too rapidly.

The reason why Huo Feihuo came to the Huo family in Yuanzhou this time is probably not just to contact You Yuening.

The Huo family may make bigger moves in eastern Jiangxi and even in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas in the future.

"Master You, you are too kind." Huo Feihuo smiled and said, "I came here to entrust you with an important matter."

You Yuening, the owner of Wei Yu Zhai, was born in Jiyang, Liangzhe. He was a famous scholar in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and one of the important figures of the new Confucian school here.

But now, he has his own thoughts.

Frankly speaking, he had no aversion to prominent families like the Huo family in Yuanzhou, which had a long tradition of poetry and literature.

What he cared about was that he and his descendants could not be among them.

The You family of Jiyang will be passed down through the ages, with deep roots and lasting for a long time.

This is his goal.

There is always a difference between inside and outside of people.

"This is the scroll needed to condense the cultural context. My father asked me to bring it to Master You Zhai." Huo Feihuo smiled and said, "With Master You Zhai's ability, the rest should be easy."

"No, I am a humble student and I still have many things to ask your father and other seniors for advice. I would like to ask for your care in the future." You Yuening took the scroll handed to him and felt it was heavy.

It is not difficult to consolidate the cultural context of the classics passed down from generation to generation.

However, if one wants to bless future generations and allow one's own bones to have a chance to be passed down through blood, the difficulty is extremely great.

How to maintain the cultural context after successfully consolidating it involves many aspects and cannot be decided by the You family alone.

"The current situation is turbulent, and Master You Zhai is as clear as a candle. I believe he has already known it clearly." Huo Feihuo continued: "Consolidating the cultural heritage and accumulating strength for a long time, it is not appropriate to rush..."

You Yuening: "Don't worry, Master Huo, I, Jiyang, will not act hastily or blindly. Everything will be done according to the agreement. After Jiyang is fully prepared, we will wait for the instructions of Mr. Le Yuan and your father, and then act together."

Huo Feihuo: "In that case, I'll trouble you, Master Youzhai."

Finally, he said softly, "Mr. Huo has other things to do and will go to eastern Zhejiang later. I hope Master You Zhai can cover for me. Thank you in advance."

You Yuening thought to himself that he had come, and did not ask about the details. He just agreed generously: "Mr. Huo, please don't be polite."

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

The great world of nine heavens and ten earths.

Time flies and the seasons change.

It was midsummer again, and Lei Jun celebrated his 129th birthday.

Then summer goes and autumn comes, until winter arrives.

As the New Year is coming to an end, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion will usher in a new ordination ceremony.

This ordination ceremony received considerable attention from both inside and outside the country.

According to rumors, there is an extremely outstanding immortal seedling in the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain, who will officially enter the mansion through a grand ceremony of ordination.

There is a Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain, one of the six branches.

A tall and thin young man, dressed in a gray Taoist robe, left the courtyard where he lived and went to the main hall to attend evening classes.

On the way, other little Taoist children came over and said, "Brother An, I want to ask you some questions about cultivation..."

The tall and thin Taoist boy's attitude was not enthusiastic, but he did not directly refuse or send the other party to find a teacher.

He gave a few simple pointers, and the Taoist boy felt as if he had suddenly understood something.

"Thank you, Brother An, for your guidance." The little Taoist boy was very grateful, but at the same time he was sighing in his heart that the enlightenment at the level of tranquility was really beyond the reach of others.

Although we are all in the same Taoist temple, after spending two years together, everyone knows that they are in different worlds.

Fortunately, although Senior Brother An Buzheng is aloof and taciturn, he is not arrogant and often gives advice and guidance to his fellow disciples.

"Senior Brother Chi is back! Senior Brother Chi is back!"

When they were almost reaching the main hall, other little Taoist children came running over from a distance.

Upon hearing the news, the Taoist children from the first branch were immediately delighted and went out together to greet him.

An Buzheng looked over and asked, "Senior Brother Chi is back in the mountains?"

The little Taoist boy from the Sixth Branch beside him said, "I haven't heard any news about him before. It seems that he just came back."

An Buzheng nodded and continued walking towards the main hall.

The Taoist boy beside him seemed to want to say something but stopped himself.

The Sixth Branch is An Buzheng.

Chi Haifeng from the first branch.

These are the two most popular immortal seedlings in the Taoist Temple of the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain. Although they are still young, their fame is not limited to Longhu Mountain, and even the outside world is paying close attention to them.

There is no need to say much about An Buzheng.

He was born with an immortal body and possessed a level of enlightenment that was pure and quiet.

Such superior innate qualifications, since the last Heavenly Master Tang Xiaotang, in just over a hundred years, the Heavenly Master Mansion in Longhu Mountain has produced another one, which is truly envied by the outside world.

Especially since he has a Yin-Yang Immortal Body, he has a special color to the current Tianshi Mansion.

Although there is no clear evidence, many people speculate that the contemporary Heavenly Master Lei Jun's physique has been improved after birth, perhaps more than once.

An Buzheng was born with a yin-yang immortal body and a pure and quiet understanding, so his future achievements naturally aroused great expectations from all parties.

The emergence and growth of younger talents is undoubtedly a reflection of the heritage of this holy land.

The current situation of the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion is sufficient to ensure the safe growth of talents like An Buzheng.

On the other hand, in addition to An Buzheng, there is another young genius Chi Haifeng emerging among his peers, which makes other holy lands and sects even more envious.

It is basically confirmed that Chi Haifeng is Xin Beiyuan's disciple. Now the history of Huang Tiandao is no longer a problem for Longhu Mountain.

But such a coincidence that these two outstanding talents belong to the direct lineage of Lei Tianshi and the related lineage of Huang Tiandao respectively, not only adds a bit of legendary color to them, but also gives others more topics to talk about after dinner.

Logically speaking, An Buzheng possesses both an immortal body and a pure and quiet understanding. Referring to Tang Xiaotang's previous experience, the first level of Qi refining and foundation-laying stage can be completed in one go for him.

As a disciple two years ago, he does not necessarily have to wait for this ordination ceremony. He can make special arrangements and receive guidance and instruction from senior masters such as Zhuo Baojie to reach the second level of foundation-building.

In this way, as long as he concentrates on practicing diligently, he will probably have a chance to catch up with the ordination ceremony at the beginning of next year or the ordination ceremony at the beginning of the next year.

However, An Buzheng did not seem to be in a hurry about this. Instead, he took a step-by-step approach and waited for the ordination ceremony.

In terms of cultivation, he had already reached perfection in the twelfth level of Qi Refining.

However, he was not impatient on weekdays. While quietly nurturing his condition, he either took on tasks in the Deacon Hall to gain more experience, or studied Taoist scriptures and recited various rituals.

Everyone in the palace praised him for his maturity at a young age and his calmness. Not only did he have a top-notch innate talent and comprehension, but his state of mind and will were also top-notch.

In this way, coupled with the resources and environment provided by the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion, he will surely be able to realize his talents and his future will be limitless.

On the other hand, another person, Chi Haifeng, followed the path of Tang Xiaotang and Han Xiaofei. He cultivated to the twelfth level of Qi Refining at an early stage and then, with special approval from the palace, did not wait for the ordination ceremony at the beginning of next year. Instead, he was taught the Great Dao Scripture of the True One by Xin Beiyuan, and was given special training to lay the foundation for building the path.

In terms of public procedures, he is also expected to formally participate in the ordination ceremony at the beginning of next year and change into a yellow robe. Therefore, he is currently wearing the Taoist boy's gray robe like An Buzheng and others, and he also lives in the Taoist boy's courtyard at the foot of the mountain on weekdays.

But last year, he had successfully survived the chasm between the first and second heavens and established his foundation successfully. Afterwards, he continued to practice, and was given the talisman scripture and learned how to make talismans.

This year, Chi Haifeng also went out traveling with his senior teachers to broaden his horizons.

An Buzheng took it calmly and continued at his own pace.

The little Taoist boy beside him couldn't help but guess that Chi Haifeng was rushing ahead with the intention of competing with Senior Brother Tong An.

But the little Taoist boy didn't dare to say this out loud, for fear that Brother An would misunderstand him and think he was trying to sow discord.

After the two arrived at the main hall, all the Taoist children, whether they were from the Sixth Branch or not, stood up and greeted An Buzheng.

An Buzheng calmly returned the greetings one by one.

Later, a group of Taoist children from the branch who had gone there earlier came in, accompanied by another boy who looked to be only twelve or thirteen years old.

In the main hall, most people also greeted him: "Senior Brother Chi."

The young Taoist boy smiled and returned the greetings to everyone.

"Brother Chi, how is the scenery of Shushan?" someone called out.

The young man named Chi Haifeng drew a circle in front of him with his arms: "Five peaks facing the sky, a unique scene!"

Another person asked, "What about magic? How does the Shushan Sect's Yuanci Refining Device compare to our sect's Yuanci Talisman?"

Chi Haifeng: "This..."

Suddenly, a jade chime rang.

Chi Haifeng quickly stopped talking and stood with the other little Taoist children.

A slightly shorter figure appeared at the entrance of the hall.

The Taoist children, who had already quieted down, became even more solemn when they saw that it was Elder Zhuo who came.

In terms of cultivation realm, Elder Zhuo is even higher than Elder Xu.

Although Zhuo Baojie will not succeed Xu Rui as the chief instructor of the Taoist Temple until next year, he has often come to the temple to answer questions and give lectures in the past two years.

Zhuo Bao's light swept calmly across the faces of An Buzheng, Chi Haifeng and others.

He nodded slightly.

The disciple who was teaching beside him and wearing a crimson Taoist robe rang the Dharma bell.

Zhuo Baojie personally presided over today's evening class.

Everything went as usual in class.

After the evening class, everyone was instructed to pay their respects to Zhuo Baojie and then disperse.

Chi Haifeng came close to Zhuo Baojie.

Zhuo Baojie: "Nephew Chi, is there anything wrong?"

Although he addressed Chi Haifeng like this, Chi Haifeng, who had not yet experienced the formal ordination ceremony, was not comfortable addressing the other party as his uncle: "Elder Zhuo, I have some questions that I would like to ask you."

Zhuo Baojie: "Okay, follow me."

He calmly led Chi Haifeng into the back hall: "What's the matter?"

Chi Haifeng: "This time, I accompanied Elder Feng to Mount Shu and saw the method of refining Yuanci weapons in Mount Shu. Although I did not personally witness the more advanced Yuanci sword-controlling technique, I have a strange feeling."

He had already reached the second level of talisman foundation building and began to come into contact with talisman scriptures.

Among them was the Yuanci Talisman, which was the basic talisman transformed from Lei Jun's Liangyi Tianyuan Falu and Liangyi Yuanci Fazhu, which fascinated Chi Haifeng.

This time he accompanied Feng Ting to visit Shushan, serving as his accompanying Taoist child, serving him and gaining experience and knowledge.

Feng Ting is the top expert in the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain who specializes in the study of Yuanci Flying Sword.

After returning from Shushan, Chi Haifeng asked him for advice. After Feng Ting gave him some pointers, he sent him to Zhuo Baojie.

In the art of Yuanci Flying Sword, apart from their master in heaven, Zhuo Baojie, a Mahayana master, is the person with the highest attainments in Yuanci Flying Sword in Tianshi Mansion.

"The Shushan Sect's Yuanci refining technique is naturally extremely advanced, but it is obviously inferior to our sect's Yuanci Talisman technique. However, apart from this, I vaguely feel that our sect's Yuanci Talisman came first in this world, and then the Shushan Sect's Yuanci refining technique came into being?" Chi Haifeng was puzzled.

Because as far as he knew, this line of Taoism was created by a deceased elder of Shu Mountain, and then flowed into the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain. It should have been that there were magic tools and magic treasures first, and then talismans.

But Chi Haifeng felt the other way around: "...Is it because the Sect Master Zhenjun Dongxuan ascended to immortality, and his cultivation is even higher than that Shushan elder?"

Zhuo Baojie remained calm and said, "If one principle is understood, all principles are understood. It is said that the Tao follows nature and all principles return to the truth. It is not uncommon for different Taoist traditions to have studied and comprehended similar or even identical principles.

What's more, he studies the universe and the human world, and studies various legal principles on a daily basis, covering a very wide range of subjects. However, things have their priorities, and he may not record and study all of his inspirations.

The Yuanci sword-controlling technique was undoubtedly first created by Elder Chen of the Shushan Sect. The Yuanci methods and talismans of our sect were also developed based on it as a framework, but it is difficult to say when it started. However, whether it is the head master or our sect, there is no need to delve into the matter.

Elder Chen of the Shushan Sect is magnanimous and generous, a genius who does not care about sectarianism, so how can we not appreciate his kindness?"

Chi Haifeng bowed: "Thank you, Elder, for your guidance."

He asked Zhuo Baojie for a while about the secret of the Yuan magnetic talisman, and then took his leave.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the back hall, he saw another young Taoist priest in purple robe waiting for him. It was clearly Xin Beiyuan.

Seeing that there was no one else around, Chi Haifeng called out, "Master?"

Xin Beiyuan took a step forward, and Chi Haifeng hurriedly followed.

But Xin Beiyuan didn't ask him about other things during the trip. Instead, he asked, "Before the evening class, another Taoist boy asked you which one you thought was better, our sect's Yuanci Fu or the Shushan sect's Yuanci Refining Method. What do you think?"

"Disciple thought..."

Chi Haifeng was talking halfway when he suddenly remembered something. He got stuck in his words and smiled awkwardly after a while: "... Each of us has our own strengths. It's hard to compare. It's hard to compare."

Xin Beiyuan: "Do you know what to do?"

Chi Haifeng nodded like a chick pecking at rice: "Yes, Master, I know I was wrong!"

After returning to the small courtyard where he lived, he didn't dare to talk nonsense with other fellow disciples anymore. He closed the door and refused visitors, and began to copy Taoist scriptures with great effort.

In the back hall of the Taoist Temple, in addition to Zhuo Baojie, there was another high-ranking elder, who was his fellow apprentice Feng Ting.

"You have a sharp eye, better than me." Feng Ting said leisurely, "Don't even mention practicing the Yuanci Talisman on the lower three days. I only had a vague feeling when I practiced the Liangyi Yuanci Spell on the middle three days. I'm so sure that I can only be sure on the upper three days." Zhuo Baojie nodded gently, "The understanding of the Qingjing level is not comparable. It's absolutely true. Learning from the heaven and earth, it's almost self-taught, and the understanding of the natural level."

The innate level of enlightenment that is achieved naturally has not appeared even in the Tianshi Temple in Longhu Mountain for many years.

Feng Ting smiled: "Junior Brother An has a quiet understanding and a Liangyi Immortal Body, and Junior Brother Chi has a natural understanding and a Wanxiang Saint Body. The waves behind push the waves ahead. The ancients were not deceiving me."

Zhuo Baojie also laughed: "The disciple surpasses the master, this is called inheritance."

After laughing, Zhuo Baojie became more serious: "Even though you are naturally gifted, you still can't relax after birth."

In particular, some people have some flaws on their faces, while others have them in their hearts, so they need to be more careful.

Zhuo Baojie and Feng Ting rose up into the sky and arrived at the Three Pure Ones and Three Treasures Cave above the sky.

On the eve of the ordination ceremony, the contemporary Heavenly Master returned to the ancestral temple from Wujian.

After the two disciples exchanged greetings, they reported what had just happened.

"It's nothing serious." Lei Jun said calmly.

In addition to the fact that he himself has a natural level of understanding, he has dealt with too many similar people, so his vision in this regard is much sharper than Xin Beiyuan who picked up Chi Haifeng, let alone his fellow apprentices Zhuo Baojie and Feng Ting.

But he doesn't need to ask too much about such things.

Zhuo Baojie and Xin Beiyuan can make proper arrangements.

"Master, regarding the child Buzheng..." Zhuo Baojie's voice became a little deeper.

Lei Jun: "What do you think?"

Zhuo Baojie: "Disciple, I think it is better to speak early than late.

Logically speaking, with his talent and qualifications, even if there were any problems, it should be no problem for him to overcome the natural chasm from the first heaven to the second heaven.

But it is a natural chasm after all. When the time comes, there will be no chance to regret, and he has to rely on himself. The disciples cannot help him. "

Lei Jun: "It's up to you."

Zhuo Baojie: "Yes, Master."

Feng Ting stood aside without saying anything, but he felt in his heart that every family has its own problems.

After the New Year, guests from outside the mountain arrived one after another to watch the ceremony.

After the preliminary preparations, on January 15th, the new Dragon and Tiger Transmission Ceremony officially began.

The visiting guests watched carefully as the gray-robed Taoist boys completed the ritual in a methodical manner.

To be fair, in this era, anyone who can enter the Taoist Temple at the foot of Mount Longhu has high talent. The average level is far better than a hundred years ago.

The best of the best are selected in this way. Those who are now qualified to participate in the ceremony of ordination and are able to formally join the Tianshi Mansion can basically be considered high-quality immortal seedlings if they are placed in other families.

But be afraid of comparison in everything.

Even among a group of young talents, Chi Haifeng and An Buzheng still stand out.

The former is a man of talent, and outsiders generally cannot tell his true depth just by looking at him, but he is already a cultivator of the second level of foundation building, and this alone is enough to make him different from others.

Although the latter is still in the Qi Refining stage, his reputation is more famous than Chi Haifeng.

"Even his height seems to be a bit too high..."

Wang Jianan, the elder of the North Peak of Shushan Sect who came to watch the ceremony, looked at An Buzheng in the crowd and muttered to himself.

In two years, An Buzheng gradually grew taller and began to surpass his peers.

He has not yet reached the age when he grows the fastest. If he continues to grow by then, his height will probably be much taller than that of an average person when he grows up.

It is difficult for the viewer not to think of a certain Heavenly Master from Mount Longhu who has become the head of the Xuanmen sect.

Next to Wang Jianan, Yu Boyan, who was also from Beifeng, looked straight ahead and said, "Junior Brother Wang, be careful with your words."

Wang Jianan one province.

Although Lei Jun did not preside over this ceremony in person, it was a rare occasion for him to be present in person.

His first disciple Zhuo Baojie is opening the school and accepting disciples today, which is of extraordinary significance.

This also attracted more attention from the outside world to the master and disciple Zhuo Baojie who were performing the ceremony of dividing the rings and breaking the ticket.

"Master Lei is not such a strict person." Ji Chuan, the East Peak Elder of Shushan Sect, smiled softly at this time.

Wang Jianan breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at An Buzheng and sighed: "From some rumors, this is also very similar."

Although his personality is rather indifferent and cold, he is not harsh or arrogant.

He was especially caring towards his fellow disciples in Longhu Mountain.

"Practice is also neither fast nor slow. It shouldn't be that one step is too slow and the next is too slow, right?"

Wang Jianan's eyes moved between An Buzheng and Chi Haifeng: "After all, it is the Yin-Yang Immortal Body and the Pure and Quiet Enlightenment."

Although Lei Jun has not yet announced the successor to the Heavenly Master, and Zhuo Baojie has not been sent out to patrol due to his new disciple, among the several main candidates, he is the only one who has served as the on-duty elder in the Deacon Hall.

To some people inside and outside Longhu Mountain, Master Lei Tianshi's inclinations have been revealed to some extent.

And if Zhuo Baojie takes over the Longhu Mountain, then An Buzheng, who is currently becoming his disciple, will be the new generation of Heavenly Master.

Even if he is not, as Lei Jun's direct disciple, his importance is unquestionable.

Although Chi Haifeng has established his foundation first, the gap is not that big for their qualifications, and An Buzheng may catch up at any time.

Take Lei Jun himself as an example, not to mention others. At the beginning, his cultivation level was far behind Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang, but in the end he was the first to reach the profound realm of immortality.

"That friend Chi..." Ji Chuan said softly, "He is already in the late stage of foundation building."

Compared to many hearsay news, Feng Ting and Chi Haifeng visited Shushan Sect before and were guests at Dongfeng, where Ji Chuan hosted them.

Yu Boyan and Wang Jianan looked at each other in surprise when they heard this.

Even if someone gives special training, can one reach the late stage of foundation building within two years of learning?
If this continues, he may even have a chance to participate in the ordination ceremony next year!
"The Universal Holy Body alone definitely can't be that fast. So his comprehension..." Yu Boyan couldn't help but speak out.

Wang Jianan: "In the early stages of cultivation, the root bones usually play a greater role. After all, An Buzheng has a Yin-Yang immortal body. If he concentrates on cultivation for the next three days and the middle three days, it will be easy to catch up with him. He shouldn't be slow at every step..."

That being said, when he looked at Chi Haifeng and An Buzheng again, his eyes changed a little.

“The Holy Body of All Things…” Wang Jianan did not finish his words, but it was not difficult for Ji Chuan and Yu Boyan to guess what he was trying to say.

Although Chi Haifeng's Holy Body of All Things is inferior to An Buzheng's Yin-Yang Immortal Body, the Tianshi Mansion happens to have a plan and strategy to upgrade the Holy Body of All Things to the Senluo Immortal Body.

Xin Beiyuan, who is currently going through the ceremony of dividing the ring and breaking the ticket with Chi Haifeng to become his master, got his Senluo Immortal Body from him.

Of course, it is extremely difficult.

Xin Beiyuan waited for a long time before he finally got what he wanted.

His success will certainly consume a large amount of natural resources and treasures from the Tianshi Mansion, and some things may even become extinct.

But what if?
As the grandson of the headmaster and a direct disciple of the Heavenly Master, An Buzheng doesn't have to wait for the future. He has a strong competitor right after he enters the sect!
If you think about it a little deeper...

Sect Leader Lei is a man of great opportunity and fortune. His bones were transformed from the Liang Yi Immortal Body to the Tai Chi Taoist Body. It is no longer a secret since the battle with Gao Tian during the fusion of the human world.

Let’s not even mention the depressing news that Master Lei died.

One day, if he can transcend, or go one step further to achieve the Taoist Wuji, the position of Tai Chi Taoist body will be vacant again.

At that time, An Buzheng's Liangyi Immortal Body will directly face competition from Xin Beiyuan and Chi Haifeng's Senluo Immortal Body.

Compared to Mu Chunyang, the master of Zhenwu Temple who possesses an immortal body, An Buzheng and Chi Haifeng are undoubtedly more embarrassed as fellow disciples.

With the precedent of Lei Jun, although the outside world does not know the truth, it can be speculated that the Tianshi Mansion currently also has a strategy to sublimate the Liangyi Immortal Body into the Tai Chi Taoist Body.

It's just that An Buzheng and Chi Haifeng had just been ordained into the mansion, but they already had a sense of fateful conflict, which really made everyone sigh.

At this time, seeing Chi Haifeng making an exception and eating special meals without any prior knowledge, and comparing it with An Buzheng who followed the rules, Wang Jianan couldn't help but have some associations in his mind.

Faced with the "no fight", is this young man surnamed Chi deliberately trying to fight for something?

Yu Boyan pondered in silence.

With Lei Jun in charge, the Tianshi Mansion doesn't have to worry about internal strife breaking out.

However, we need to be wary of external instigation that may lead to the loss of talent.

After all, Gao Tiansui is still alive...

Ji Chuan carefully recalled the time when he had met Chi Haifeng at the East Peak of Shushan Mountain.

The outside world's gaze did not affect Zhuo Baojie, Xin Beiyuan, Chi Haifeng and An Buzheng who were on the scene.

Everyone completed the ceremony normally according to the rituals.

When the ceremony was over, all the masters left with their disciples.

"Re-elegant and quiet."

Xin Beiyuan looked at the disciple in front of him and said: "You will take the character 'Xu' from your generation, and I will take the character 'Hai' from your own body to form 'Xu Hai' as your Taoist name."

Chi Haifeng smiled and said, "Master is teaching me the principle of being modest and open-minded. It's hard for me to understand this principle. There are always people who are better than you. There are many truly celestial beings in our sect's Three Pure Ones and Three Treasures Cave Heaven. Compared with our head teacher, my uncle, I am far behind."

Xin Beiyuan glanced at him and said, "So, apart from the head teacher and his few companions, you don't care about the rest?"

Chi Haifeng smiled awkwardly: "I dare not. Master, I will definitely remember your teachings."

Xin Beiyuan: "It's useless to remember it verbally, you have to remember it in your heart. As the old saying goes, 'teachings are like wind in one's ears, but teachings are engraved in one's heart.' However, as a teacher, I don't want you to learn to remember lessons only after paying a heavy price one day."

Chi Haifeng met Xin Beiyuan's calm gaze, his expression straightened up a bit, and he nervously scratched his newly changed apricot yellow Taoist robe with his fingers: "...Yes, Master."

Xin Beiyuan said no more, and only instructed: "Don't go to Junior-nephew An for now, Senior-brother Zhuo will urge him to build his foundation in the near future."

"Yes, Master, I understand." Chi Haifeng immediately rubbed his hands together.

He still remembered that when he first entered the Taoist Academy, they were practicing Qi together to lay the foundation. The fellow disciple he could talk to the most was An Buzheng.

Although they were just two Taoist children, they discussed Taoism and exchanged ideas, and both benefited a lot from it.

It’s just a pity that An Buzheng didn’t get any “special treatment” afterwards. In this case, Chi Haifeng, who was to be taught the True One Dao Sutra and the Basic Talisman Sutra, would not be able to talk to him any more, otherwise it would be suspected of being a private teaching, which was not suitable for An Buzheng to decide on his own.

Now that the other party has been ordained and officially become a true disciple of the Tianshi Mansion, Zhuo Baojie will naturally teach him the Taoist magic and talisman techniques, and Chi Haifeng can also pull the other party to participate in research and exchanges like he did a year ago.

It just so happened that he had seen the Taoist weapon-refining school's Yuanci weapon-refining method on his trip to the East Peak of Shushan Sect. Compared with his own Yuanci Talisman, it was more unique.

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

At this moment, An Buzheng stood in front of Zhuo Baojie with his hands behind his back.

Zhuo Baojie said calmly: "Your generation is the 'Xu' generation, and generally speaking, you take one character from your original name and combine it with it to form your Taoist name.

However, I have previously presented a memorial to the Heaven and Earth Ancestors, and I have been touched by it, so I have received the word "Wu", and I will give you the Taoist name "Xu Wu". "

He handed a piece of talisman paper to his disciple.

After An Buzheng saw it, he was absent-minded, which was rare for him.

It is not nothingness, but emptiness.

His surname is An and his given name is Bu Zheng, which means "An Neng Bu Zheng". His parents hope that he will have a strong character.

And now this name, An Xuwu...

He chewed silently for a moment, then looked up at his master.

Zhuo Baojie took out a talisman pen and said, "This Yin-Yang pen was passed down to me by your great master when I was ordained into the mansion. From a spiritual point of view, it is suitable for you now, so I pass it down to you as a legacy. In the future, as your cultivation level increases, you can refine more suitable instruments and magic treasures for yourself."

"Thank you, Master, for the treasure." An Buzheng took it quickly.

Although he has not started learning how to make talismans, he is no stranger to talisman pens.

But after taking a closer look, he felt that the talisman pen was a bit strange.

It seems... the tip of the brush is a little broken?

How did it break?
The master shouldn't give you a problematic instrument.

Maybe there is another deeper meaning in this... An Buzheng pondered over it in his mind.

Zhuo Baojie looked at his disciple quietly, without saying much at the end. He taught him the first volume of "The True One Dao Sutra of the Orthodox Dharma" and other magical instruments, and only told him to rest tonight and start practicing as a formal disciple of the Tianshi Mansion tomorrow.

After An Buzheng left, Zhuo Baojie went to the Tianshi Temple on the mountain.

After the ceremony, Lei Jun did not return to the Sanqing Sanbao Cave immediately.

Seeing Zhuo Baojie coming over, he looked his eldest disciple up and down, and said with a smile:

"Huajie has become a master, and I have become the ancestor of masters. These are all new experiences, so there is no need to be so nervous."

Zhuo Baojie: "Tomorrow, I will have a good talk with Xuwu..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly paused and looked up at Lei Jun.

At this moment, there was no one else around except the master and his disciple.

In the past, in this situation, the master never called me by my name or Taoist name, but always by my nickname, and most of the time, he would have extended his hand...

"Huajie has also become a master." Lei Jun repeated with a smile.

The little bear opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

Lei Jun's smile deepened: "What are you thinking? You want to rebel against the sect? Of course, we will not abandon you, but we are also a master. Even if there is no one around, we have to give you some face. The more ordinary time, the more you can cultivate your spirit. If you are beautiful, it will be less fun for the master, okay?"

Zhuo Baojie took a deep breath: "Uh, thank you Master..."

Lei Jun: "Don't be too proud too soon. When you put aside your affairs in the mountain gate and live in this cave, we will settle the matter with interest."

Zhuo Baojie didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "...Master, you really train your disciple's state of mind!"

Lei Jun waved his hand: "Don't think about being a master anymore. As a novice, you should also learn how to be a master."

Zhuo Baojie straightened his expression and said, "Yes, I will follow your instructions."

Having said that, people are different, and bears are even more different from people. There are still some differences in style between him and his master Lei Jun.

The next day, An Buzheng came to pay a visit to Zhuo Baojie.

He suddenly realized that the master in front of him was different from before.

Normally, Zhuo Baojie always maintained a relatively short stature.

Even at the age of twelve, An Buzheng, who was just starting to grow taller, had already surpassed him.

But today, Zhuo Baojie's posture remained unchanged, but his body shape as a whole had grown more than one circle larger. Now, when he stood up, his height was no different from that of most adult men.

An Buzheng felt strange.

Zhuo Baojie calmly taught the other party the righteous Dharma and the Great Dao Sutra.

Considering his talent compared to his current realm, An Buzheng has been preparing for too long.

Therefore, he can quickly make a breakthrough towards the second level foundation building realm.

But Zhuo Baojie stopped him and asked calmly, "Is there anything you want to ask me, Master?"

An Buzheng was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"The Yin-Yang Pen was bitten by me in the past." Zhuo Baojie calmly recounted his dark history: "It was not because I was ignorant before entering the Dao, but after I was ordained and entered the palace to start formal cultivation, I was still greedy and bit it into this shape."

An Buzheng was stunned on the spot.

Finally, after he came to his senses, he bowed down to Zhuo Baojie: "Master, disciple, disciple...disciple has no intention of deceiving!"

"Master, I believe it." Zhuo Baojie stood with his hands behind his back.

The invisible energy has already lifted up An Buzheng.

The young man looked dazed, no longer as mature as before.

An Xuwu.

An Xuwu...

Yes, gradually I lost my true appearance.

When did it start?
It should be the time when he knew that he had the physique of a Yin-Yang Immortal and had to enter the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain, right?

With such talent, if he enters the Tianshi Temple, he will have the opportunity to become the direct disciple of the contemporary Tianshi.

Is there a chance to become a true immortal master like my master?

Is there a chance to inherit the Heavenly Master's legacy?

Is there a chance to be as unrivaled as my master?
How can this be done?
You must practice hard, be better than others, and lead the crowd like your master!
What is the master like?
Everyone said that he had a calm face but a thunder in his heart, was indifferent but had compassion for the people, was cruel to his enemies but cared for his fellow disciples.

I want to be that kind of person too!
Only in this way can you live up to the good fortune that God has given you and have the opportunity to meet your mentor!
But the master said that no matter what the master did, he was always calm, not anxious or irritable, not shocked or angry, and he went with the flow and acted according to circumstances.

Grandmaster spent much time to help Master lay a solid foundation. Why don't I give it a try as well?

Anyway, there is only more than a year left until the ordination ceremony.

Although he will be slower than Junior Brother Chi, he has accumulated a lot of experience and has a chance to catch up, just like our great master and great-grandmasters Xu and Tang.

But after I receive the ordination, I must work harder...

"With your talent, even if you reach a higher level, you may still have a chance."

Zhuo Baojie's voice rang in An Buzheng's ears: "But the natural disasters between the great realms are always more or less risky. If you are not careful, there will be no room for recovery. So after careful consideration, I decided to make it clear to you today."

An Buzheng whispered, "I feel ashamed of my master's cultivation and teachings."

Zhuo Baojie shook his head: "No, you are very good, very outstanding, and your future achievements will surpass those of your teacher.

Your great master is a man of profound learning, who follows the laws of nature. He is the greatest master in the Taoist sect today. Not to mention you, as your teacher, don’t I also take him as a role model?
But we must know that scholars live, while those who imitate others die. We should be especially careful not to force ourselves to fit into the shoes. How can we be at peace with ourselves?

An Buzheng is always An Buzheng. "

What did An Buzheng look like when he first met him?
Caring for your family and friends, that’s right.

Tough and decisive, yes.

There is nothing wrong in being passionate about spiritual practice, being curious about nature, and working hard.

But whether you call him ambitious or competitive, he is not indifferent or peaceful at all.

Compared to Lei Jun who looked calm but had a thunderbolt in his heart, An Buzheng was more likely to suppress his thoughts by force and not to ask too much about the changes in the outside world.

Zhuo Baojie smiled and said, "Besides, you can only learn from your master what you have seen. How can you know the whole picture by just looking at the tube?"

An Buzheng pursed his lips and said, "Disciple, I will observe and learn more slowly..."

"Your master taught us to go with the flow and act according to circumstances, but you have learned nothing from him."

Zhuo Baojie sighed softly. After all, the other party was still a child with limited experience:

"If your Grandmaster had been in the same situation as you in the past two years, he would have been the same as Uncle Tang and Sister Han. Why would he have waited for the ordination ceremony?
This is about a hurdle in your heart. I still hope you can figure it out yourself. But now it’s time to build your foundation. It’s not that I don’t trust your talent, but it’s better to be cautious, so I’ll let you clear the window paper.”

An Buzheng wanted to cry but had no tears.

However, he slowly calmed down, exhaled a long breath, and bowed to Zhuo Baojie: "Disciple thanks you for your teachings, Master."
