Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune starts from Tianshi Mansion.

Chapter 537 536. Unexpected Invitation (Two Chapters in One)

Everything Xiao Chunhui is currently creating is between reality and illusion.

Although Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan could feel the flow of Wenhua Haoran Qi, they were both certain that the changing scene before their eyes was not constructed by Wenhua Haoran Qi itself.

In today's world, the noble spirit of culture is more of a source of support.

The world itself is more likely to be created by spiritual empathy.

It not only originated from Xiao Chunhui, but also from Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan.

If described from the perspective of magical powers, it is more like a method of the spirit and soul, rather than Xiao Chunhui's literary and noble spirit itself or the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that is drawn upon.

Although the Confucian method of magical powers also focuses on spiritual cultivation, it emphasizes correcting one's own heart and cultivating a noble character.

The means of fighting against foreign enemies are basically accomplished through the use of literary and artistic great energy, and the use of spiritual techniques is rare.

But Xiao Chunhui's method now seems to be different.

Given the difference in cultivation level between him and Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan, it is of course impossible for him to touch the souls of Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan with his own spiritual techniques.

This is his way of acting right now, Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan act naturally.

With their strength in cultivation, they were able to blend in without causing any ripples, as if they were an integral part of the world created by Xiao Chunhui.

If the two of them are hostile to each other, the slightest fluctuation in their thoughts will destroy the world in front of them.

They didn't talk at the moment, just looked around.

After a while, this world automatically dissipated.

The spring scenery, flowers and trees all disappeared, and the doomsday scene frozen by Wang Guiyuan in the Infernal Affairs reappeared before my eyes.
Xiao Chunhui reappears.

He looked normal, not feeling any serious burden from capturing the two great immortals.

In front of him, Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan returned to the natural world, as if existing between existence and non-existence.

Xiao Chunhui first thanked Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan.

"I watch the flowers bloom, so that's when the flowers really bloom?" Lei Jun asked.

Xiao Chunhui: "It is just as Master Lei said."

Wang Guiyuan nodded slightly.

He is the golden-bodied master of the Buddhist vow lineage.

No wonder Xiao Chunhui, in addition to asking Lei Jun for advice when he was figuring out the new method, also sought him out.

"There are many wonderful points." Lei Jun showed admiration and was quite interested.

More than a hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye, but what has not changed is that since he started to learn Taoism, his greatest passion has been to explore and appreciate the various Taoist traditions and methods in this world, and to understand the different scenery on the road of cultivation.

In addition to his own Taoist talisman school's inheritance, Lei Jun is also interested in the Danding school, the weapon refining school, and even the various inheritances of Buddhism, martial arts, Confucianism, and witchcraft outside of Taoism.

As they traveled along the way, they learned about Zhang Wantong and Meng Shaojie's Confucian historiography, Nie Fang's Taoist Yanshi, the foreign cavalry martial arts, the Taoist alchemy and talisman heritage of Luofu Mountain, and even Chen Yi's unique Taoist tradition as well as Confucianism that combined the Wumen Blood River with Taoist talismans. No matter what Lei Jun liked or disliked about them, he wanted to learn about them.

Lei Jun was naturally delighted to see Xiao Chunhui's current exploration and creation.

In the Confucian world, there is a distinction between old Confucianism and new Confucianism, but it is more about concepts and demands. What they study and learn still does not go beyond the three strands of classics, chanting, and archery, especially classics.

The academic discipline that Xiao Chunhui is currently studying, like the history that Zhang Wantong and Meng Shaojie are studying, as well as the Confucianism that existed before, are all truly new disciplines.

Although these three disciplines are essentially derived from Confucian classics, they have now taken on new forms and developed more deeply.

Of course, compared with science and history, the subject that Xiao Chunhui is currently studying is still immature. It is just a beginning, and it cannot even be said that a complete framework has been established.

Even so, Lei Jun is still full of interest.

However, he also said frankly: "The foundation is of course very good, and cultivation depends on oneself. However, when it comes to actual combat to protect the way, it has similar advantages and disadvantages to the science side."

"Master Lei is right." Xiao Chunhui responded with a smile.

He knew his own business and knew that what Lei Jun said was true.

The advantages and disadvantages of actual combat methods are similar to those of science.

What are the advantages and disadvantages?

The means of fighting are currently mainly reflected in the spirit and soul.

In this kind of fighting, the suppression of different realms is often the most intuitive.

He is always at an advantage when dealing with opponents who are weaker than himself, but he is more likely to run into obstacles than other cultivators when facing opponents whose souls are stronger than his own.

To put it bluntly, it means bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

"However, this is only the case for now." Wang Guiyuan smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao's new learning is only the beginning. It will develop further in the future and reach the realm of inner sage and outer king."

Xiao Chunhui: "I am sorry to bother Master Lei and Elder Wang this time."

Lei Jun: "No, I am happy to see such a pioneering work."

Xiao Chunhui had previously received guidance from Zhang Wantong and Yan Aoyun, and was now consulting Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan for several days. He had gained a lot, and his understanding of his new knowledge was improving day by day.

Later, he thanked Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan, said goodbye, and returned to the Confucian world to practice in seclusion.

In comparison, because Confucian cultural traditions have existed for thousands of years, although they have now dispersed and returned to nature, the environment of that world is still more suitable for Confucian practitioners to read and cultivate their spirit.

Lei Jun stayed in Wujian, continuing to observe and study the Abyss of Time for a period of time before returning to the ancestral temple of Longhu Mountain in the human world.

In the Sanqing Sanbao Cave, Lei Jun continued to practice in silence.

Thunder Emperor City appeared, and there was a figure sitting in the city. It was Lei Jun’s own true body of Thunder Emperor.

At the other end, there was Lei Jun, responding to the sound of the Taiyi Emperor, sitting quietly on the lotus, and an illusory underworld seemed to be condensing under him.

Lei Jun sat still in silence.

But under the moving starlight, new figures began to appear.

From a distance, it looks like the Star Emperor wearing a crown. Countless talismans transform into brilliant galaxies, surrounding his body and protecting it together.

Lei Jun stared at the body which was still illusory at present, thinking silently. A black and white Tai Chi diagram appeared on his forehead, rotating quietly.

The Tianlu Jade Horn was grasped by him and turned into jade light, merging with his body.

As the jade light flowed, it attracted the spirituality and spiritual energy from all directions of heaven and earth and gathered on Lei Jun.

With Lei Jun's current aptitude, understanding, and cultivation strength, he can naturally take what is most suitable for his needs, take advantage of the situation, and follow nature's will.

The nature of Pixiu is to gather all spirits, only take in and not give out, and accumulate deeply.

Using it to assist your own practice will of course be of great benefit.

But for Yu Leijun, it may not be completely suitable.

When he first ascended to heaven, this vast world and the human world had not yet merged.

When people from the fairyland enter the human world and walk, their immortal essence and spiritual power will be greatly lost and dissipated, and then return to heaven and earth.

Most of the powerful people in the fairyland are very cautious about this and turn pale when talking about it.

But Lei Jun didn't care much about it.

His attitude of practice and Taoist methods have made him not averse to walking in the human world. Instead, he is more closely integrated with the human world, as if they are one.

Although a large amount of immortal essence and magic power will be lost, at the same time a certain balance and cycle is established with the natural world of the human world. Some of the immortal essence and spirituality will flow back into Lei Jun's body from the human world.

After Lei Jun achieved the Tai Chi Dao Body, the relevant flow balance became more harmonious and stable.
Later, when the fairyland merged with the human world and the people in the fairyland could move freely in the human world, Lei Jun still did not change his style.

His immortal essence, spiritual energy, and magical power are still constantly dissipating into the natural world, every moment.

It's just that nature also continuously feeds back spiritual energy to him.

The two sides have reached a perfect balance, which is invisible to the outside world but is actually always maintained.

Even if Lei Jun is currently in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths or in the Three Pure Ones and Three Treasures Cave Heaven, the situation will not change.

In this case, even if Lei Jun obtained the Tianlu Jade Horn, he would not really be like a Pixiu who only takes in and does not give out.

But with his understanding, vision and cultivation strength, he can certainly use the Tianlu Jade Horn to his own benefit, which can be regarded as seeking common ground while reserving differences on another level.

As time went by, he practiced meditation, accumulating his own magical powers to perfect Taiweiyuan. At the same time, he continued to deduce his own immortal secrets and magical powers, striving for excellence and bringing forth new ideas.

Practicing in the mountains, I don’t know how many years have passed.

As time passed quietly, Lei Jun celebrated his 133rd birthday.

The eldest disciple Zhuo Baojie ended his tenure as the chief instructor of the Taoist Temple in early spring this year.

He is not in a hurry to take on new tasks at the moment. In addition to assisting his senior teachers in handling affairs within the mansion and focusing on his own cultivation, he is also teaching his disciple An Buzheng.

"Is Xuwu going to condense the third Yuan Fu?" Lei Jun asked.

Zhuo Baojie replied, "Yes, Master, Xuwu's foundation is gradually becoming stronger."

Just like the path Lei Jun and he had taken before, the Taoist talisman school reached the fourth heavenly Yuan Fu realm, which was divided into four levels of practice. When the four Yuan Fu were all completed, they laid the foundation for the next step to the fifth heavenly Dao Palace realm.

After only a few years of learning, An Buzheng has already successfully entered the middle three days level, and his cultivation speed is still very fast. He is about to start condensing the third Yuan Fu.

On the other side, Xin Beiyuan's disciple Chi Haifeng has already achieved success in the Four Directions Yuan Fu and is trying to reach the fifth level of the Heavenly Dao Palace realm.

On the one hand, Chi Haifeng, like Lei Jun, Xu Yuanzhen and Cheng Rongrong, was curious about the path of cultivation, had broad interests and dabbled in many fields. On the other hand, the root bones played a more obvious role in the early and middle stages of cultivation. Therefore, An Buzheng, who possessed the Yin-Yang Immortal Body, gradually caught up with the gap of the year before the transmission.

If the current progress of both sides does not change significantly, An Buzheng will catch up with Chi Haifeng's cultivation progress before the sixth level.

Zhuo Baojie didn't care much about the speed of the matter.

What he was concerned about was An Buzheng's mentality and state of mind during this process.

At present, it seems that the apprentice is not anxious or irritable and remains stable.

While his cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds, his foundation was solid and there was no superficiality.

"Second Junior Sister went out for a trip some time ago and by chance obtained the Essence of All Things and brought it back to the mountain." Zhuo Baojie looked as usual with a hint of a smile on his face.

Lei Jun was also calm: "The spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged, and the natural materials and treasures created are much richer than before. We practitioners need to cherish them even more."

Zhuo Baojie: “Master is right.” The essence of all things is one of the opportunities needed to help the sacred body of all things sublimate into the immortal body of all things.

However, this alone is still a long way from achieving the Senluo Immortal Body.

If no other opportunities or treasures are obtained, it is possible that it will be delayed for a hundred or a thousand years.

In fact, there is more than just the Senluo Immortal Body.

Lei Jun himself was sublimated from his innate medium to high bone quality into a latent dragon spirit body, then sublimated from the latent dragon spirit body into the Yin-Yang Holy Body, then sublimated from the Yin-Yang Holy Body into the Liang-Yin Immortal Body, then sublimated from the Liang-Yin Immortal Body into the Tai Chi Taoist Body, paving a complete upward channel.

With Lei Jun's current level of cultivation and status, most of the related matters no longer need to be kept secret, and can benefit future generations of Tianshi Mansion.

But it is not so easy to prescribe medicine according to the prescription.

I won’t mention the most difficult Tai Chi Taoist body, and only talk about the initial Qianlong spirit body, which involves three treasures: purple gold Ganoderma lucidum, Tianyuan Qinglu, and dragon horse scales.

Lingzhi Terrace in Mount Longhu was spiritually exhausted in the early years due to the civil war in Mount Longhu. Later, with the surge of spiritual energy from heaven and earth and the changes in the spiritual veins of the mountain, Lingzhi Terrace finally gradually recovered.

As a result, Huang Xuanpu, Fu Dongsen and others from the Human Dao Kingdom attacked Longhu Mountain with the intention of moving the Wanfa Sect Altar.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

After a great battle, Lingzhi Terrace was completely destroyed due to the flames of war.

It was not until recent years that it was rebuilt with the efforts of Lei Jun, Yuan Mobai, Qin Caiwei and others.

Although it has gone through many turmoil, there is currently no shortage of purple gold Ganoderma lucidum and pure gold Ganoderma lucidum in the Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion.

The dragon horse scales are also not difficult to find in the Tianshi Mansion today.

But the only thing missing is the pure dew from the abyss of heaven, and there has been no new harvest over the years.

Therefore, the route of the Qianlong spirit body cannot be replicated at present.

It cannot be found in the outside world, but after Lei Jun achieved the Tai Chi body and his cultivation level gradually improved in recent years, he has some vague artificial inspiration.

But as of now, he has not completely mastered this topic.

Without considering other factors, if he cooperates with Gao Tiansui who possesses the Tai Su Taoist body, it would probably be achieved quickly.

Unfortunately, the problem is that both sides have to consider other factors.

Lei Jun didn't bother about it.

He just likes to study and explore the various mysterious changes in the world, rather than pursuing the mass production of artificial spirits.

However, things like improving one's physique and understanding most of the time really depend on personal opportunity and luck.

The Longhushan Tianshi Mansion can only try its best to provide convenience in training its disciples.

"Xuwu's foundation has gradually been laid, but I want to polish him carefully for a few more years." Zhuo Baojie said.

Lei Jun: "Just take control of it yourself."

Although taking over the position of Heavenly Master required, according to custom, a patrolling elder must be sent out in addition to the elder on duty in the Deacon Hall, Lei Jun and Zhuo Baojie did not feel any urgency about this.

Right now Zhuo Baojie is focusing on cultivating An Buzheng, so he will stay in the Longhushan ancestral temple for a while.

"By the way, Master, there is news recently that Elder Wang of Chunyang Palace will be in seclusion in the near future, intending to achieve the Mahayana realm." Zhuo Baojie said, "There is also Elder Yu from the North Peak of Shushan Sect."

Lei Jun nodded slightly.

Wang Xuan was born into the Tang Dynasty branch of Chunyang Palace and was an old acquaintance of their Longhu Mountain.

The essence of All Things that Xin Beiyuan used when he sublimated from the Holy Body of All Things to the Immortal Body of All Things came from the essence collected by Wang Xuan and given to the Tianshi Mansion by the Chunyang Palace.

He was once the youngest high-ranking elder of the Chunyang Palace in the Tang Dynasty, and the youngest Suzaku elder. Like Yuan Mobai, he was young but of a higher generation.

But because of the great disaster in Chunyang Palace, Wang Xuan was seriously injured.

Although he escaped danger and gradually recovered his strength, his upward momentum in practice was interrupted.

Although he felt a little sad, Wang Xuan quickly calmed down and devoted himself to the reconstruction of Chunyang Palace after the catastrophe. He assisted Jiang Yu, Lu Jinduan, Yue Xiling and others, and gradually helped the Chunyang Palace of the Tang Dynasty to get out of the trough.

Today, he is over 200 years old.

However, considering Wang Xuan's character, since he made such a decision, he must be very confident.

His age has entered a plateau period. Although the speed of his cultivation has slowed down a lot, Wang Xuan still has the possibility of making progress.

The Chunyang Palace lineage is about to add another great master of the Ninth Heaven.

It goes without saying that the Taoist talisman school can only be passed down in the holy land of Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain.

After the Taoist weapon-refining school's inheritance merged with the human world, the Shushan school's inheritance in different human worlds also merged together and gathered in Shushan.

However, the current mainstream of the Taoist Danding School is divided into three holy lands.

That is, Chunyang Palace, Kunwu Sect and Zhenwu Temple.

Not to mention Zhao Chanyang, the immortal Yuanshen with two flowers gathered at the top of the head in Kunwu Sect, the sect leader Zhang Haipeng is also a perfect Mahayana master of the ninth heaven with five qi converging to the primordial origin.

Due to various historical reasons, although Zhenwu Temple has prospered in recent years and produced many talented people, top high-level masters are relatively scarce at present.

But no matter what, Mu Chunyang's practice of Qi and his return to the spirit realm are enough to ensure the long-term prosperity of Zhenwu Temple.

It turns out that in the end, it is Chunyang Palace, the holy land where the Taoist Danding School originally originated, is no longer ruled by Yuanshen Zhenjun, which is a pity.

Fortunately, Chunyang Palace has no shortage of talented younger disciples, and the overall internal and external environment is stable, so there will be plenty of opportunities for further rise in the future.

Among the great masters of the Ninth Heaven, Yue Xiling is relatively old and is actually not even 200 years old yet.

Jiang Yu and Qi Yicheng, who was born in the Song Dynasty and had recently broken through to the ninth level, were younger.

Although it is not as easy as Lei Jun, Xu Yuanzhen and others, they still have hope of reaching the fairyland.

The same is true for Yu Boyan, the elder of the North Peak of Shushan Sect, who, like Wang Xuan, is preparing to reach the Ninth Heaven Realm.

He was once a representative figure among the younger generation of the Shushan Sect of the Han Dynasty. He was favored by Chen Lingfeng, He Yuhang and others as a talented person who could take over the sect. He had already reached the eighth level of the heaven in his early years.

He only started to impact the ninth heaven in recent years, which is actually later than many people expected, and even makes people worry whether he lacks stamina.

Yu Boyan himself was extremely calm and unmoved by this.

"In recent years, Elder Yu has been exchanging ideas on weapon-making techniques with the Shushan Sect's Dongfeng Sect on the one hand, and on the other hand he seems to be busy collecting materials for his own new magic weapon." Zhuo Baojie said.

The Dongfeng inheritance of the Shushan School is the original lineage of the Shushan School of the Tang Dynasty.

Over the past hundred years, they have had a lot of exchanges with the Tianshi Mansion and Xuanji Temple in Longhu Mountain, and even with the Chunyang Palace in the Tang Dynasty, and there have been many changes and innovations in the techniques, ideas and even processes of refining equipment.

Later, after the Yuanci sword-controlling technique and weapon-refining technique passed down by "Chen Donglou" flowed back to the Shushan School of the Tang Dynasty, the Shushan School of the Tang Dynasty has also been constantly studying and pondering on it in recent years.

After the fusion of humans and the four branches of the Shushan Sect, the new leader of the South Peak, Li Wanqiu, and the elder of the North Peak, Yu Boyan, communicated the most and asked the most questions with Zhang Taigang, Ji Chuan, Xie Yiying and others of the East Peak.

Yu Boyan's progress in cultivation has slowed down relatively in recent decades, largely because he is gradually innovating and improving his original concepts and ideas.

Although Taoist practice is not as profound as Confucian classics, Yu Boyan can be said to be sharpening the knife before chopping wood.

"Sister Zhang, are you not interested in practicing in seclusion right now?" Lei Jun asked.

Zhuo Baojie: "Master Zhang has not yet expressed such an intention."

Zhang Jingzhen is also currently at the fourth level of the Eighth Heaven, and it has been some years since he reached perfection in the Eighth Heaven.

Nowadays, in the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain, except for Lei Jun and others who have already ascended to heaven, the high-ranking elders of the previous generation, such as Yuan Mobai, Shangguan Ning, Yao Yuan, and Liu Xiao, have begun to gradually fade out of the affairs of the mansion and concentrate on their own cultivation.

Chu Kun, Zhang Jingzhen, Lin Shan, Luo Haoran, Fang Jian and other high-ranking elders of the same generation as Lei Jun began to take the lead as the Mesozoic generation, assisting the Heavenly Master in handling all matters big and small inside and outside the palace.

However, generally speaking, when they reach the important juncture between the higher realms, they will temporarily "take leave" to practice in seclusion. Even if they do not go into seclusion, they will resign from their main duties in the mansion.

Of course, this is largely a matter of personal choice.

When the master and the disciple were talking, Lei Jun did not avoid Zhuo Baojie. In his pupils, a divine talisman appeared, shining brightly.

When Zhuo Baojie saw this, he kept silent.

After a moment, the radiance of the talisman in Lei Jun's pupils dissipated: "His Majesty the Tang Emperor has passed the natural chasm between the second and third levels of the Immortal Realm and has returned to the third level of the Confucian Sage."

Zhuo Baojie exclaimed: "It's really fast!"

Even with the Confucians' broad-minded understanding and the ability to observe the past and present, it normally still takes many years to go from the second to the third level of Confucian sage.

Zhang Wantong's recultivation has restored her realm and strength to a certain extent, but she has also turned to the study of history in this life by combining the foundation of Wenquxingzhao and Guanzhaogujin. Some new paths she still needs to explore on her own, which requires time and energy.

It took her thirty-four years from the time she cultivated to the second level of the immortal realm to the time she regained the realm of the Confucian Su Wang, which was still much shorter than the outside world expected.

"Although she lost half of the universe map, she did gain something else in the Confucian world."

Lei Junyan said: "According to the information she sent back, she is expected to return to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Great Thousand World in the near future."

Zhuo Baojie thought for a moment and asked, "Is it in the capacity of Tianrui Lay Buddhist or in the capacity of His Majesty the Emperor of Tang?"

Lei Jun: "For us, it doesn't make much difference, but after she comes back, we will know later whether to change the name."

In addition to Zhang Wantong's own return to the third level of fairyland, Xiao Chunhui has also recently successfully cultivated to the ninth level of Confucianism in the world of Confucian scholars.

His participation in the research and creation of new disciplines successfully laid the foundation for the initial beginning, and things will go much more smoothly in the future.

Like history, his new studies were derived from Confucian classics and also had the ability to develop over time. Xiao Chunhui did not have to worry about wasting years in improving his personal cultivation.

Lei Jun was chatting with his eldest disciple when the third disciple Feng Ting came from the ancestral temple of the human world to the Three Pure Ones and Three Treasures Cave Heaven:
"Master, are you looking for me?"

Lei Jun nodded: "Are you planning to go to Kunlun Yuyutian recently? Take this with you and go to Qingweitian, and give it to Daoist Zhao of Kunwu Sect."

Before this, Zhao Chanyang took the rare initiative to contact the outside world and discussed Taoism with Lei Jun. He also asked Lei Jun to condense the true meaning of Tai Chi for him to refer to. Later, he sent disciples of Kunwu Sect to Longhu Mountain to pay homage.

Since Feng Ting was already planning to go to Kunlun, Lei Jun simply asked his third disciple to send him off.

He used his own magical power to condense the true meaning of Tai Chi, turning it into a talisman with a black and white Tai Chi diagram written on it, and gave it to Feng Ting.

Feng Ting bowed to his master and said goodbye before setting off immediately.

Unexpectedly, Lei Jun soon received another message from Zhao Chanyang.

What surprised him even more than last time was that this time Zhao Chanyang took the initiative to invite him to Kunlun.
