The copy of the universe from the journey to the west

Chapter 304: Master Fuqiu: I have a disciple who has accumulated a lot of experience and made a great success! (asking for monthly votes)

"Why hasn't he come out in such a long time? Is there really a fight going on?"

Mingxiang looked at the bamboo house protected by the magic circle and felt a little worried.

Once the bamboo house magic circle was opened, they could not observe the scene inside.

"Brother, don't worry."

Mingyun said: "Junior Brother Qing is a smart man, he won't do anything too harsh."

"Huh? How do you know I'm worried about Mingqi?"

Ming Xiang was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said with a strange look on his face: "Old Six..."

Mingyun's face froze and he shuddered: "Big Brother... you can just call me by my Dharma name."

Ming Xiang nodded and said, "Sixth Junior Brother."

"Hey, senior brother, please tell me." Mingyun became much more honest.

"By the way, have you always been pretending with us?"

Ming Xiang looked at Ming Yun who was about to speak, and waved his hand: "Don't refute. You are different today. Brother can see it."

Ming Yun swallowed the words he wanted to say in defense and smiled awkwardly, but he knew he couldn't hide it, so after a long silence he said, "Big Brother... although I'm not the youngest brother, but the seventh brother Ming Hai is gone, so I am the youngest. With you and the second brother above me, I don't want anything else. I'm very satisfied as long as I can practice Taoism and live a carefree life."

Ming Xiang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly: "Brother, I don't mean that, but in the past, you'd better not pretend in the future. You can hide it from me and your second brother, but you may not be able to hide it from the master. I didn't understand why the master always asked me and the second brother to do anything. Now I understand. You, to put it nicely, are very vigilant and cautious. To put it bluntly, you don't trust anyone and always want to hide. Your second brother and I are both your brothers, and the master has taught you for thousands of years. Why, don't you even trust us?"

As he spoke, his tone began to show some dissatisfaction.

He was the earliest disciple to join Zhuqiu, having joined the sect more than three thousand years ago. The other disciples joined after him, and Mingyun joined the sect one thousand eight hundred years ago. I can't say that he watched Mingyun grow up, but at least he watched Mingyun step by step to where he is today.

Although they are not blood brothers, they are better than blood brothers.

Mingyun thought about it, then nodded: "I can save it, Big Brother."

"After listening, we must change."

Ming Xiang was not happy with his attitude: "Do you really know?"

Mingyun fell silent.

He understands the principle, but... this habit, a habit of being cautious and careful that has been developed for one or two thousand years, how can it be changed just like that?
If he had not met Lu Chen today, he would have discovered his own opportunity in Lu Chen and could not help but reveal his true character. He would probably have continued pretending.

Of course, it is impossible to change one's mind just because of Mingxiang's few words.

Seeing that Mingyun was silent, Mingxiang shook his head slightly: "To achieve immortality, is it as simple as cultivating the Tao? If you live like a ghost all day long, you will probably become a ghost sooner or later, Sixth Junior Brother... Think about it carefully."

Then he turned around and looked towards the bamboo house.

Mingyun looked conflicted, and just as he was about to say something, the scene around the bamboo house in front of him suddenly dissipated.

With the sound of the door opening, two figures who were having a friendly conversation appeared in front of the two.

"Thank you, Junior Brother Qing."

"It should be. As I said before, help each other and grow together. Win-win is our goal..."

"Brother Qing has helped me more, no doubt about it! If you have any problems in the future, just let me know! Although I, Mingqi, may not have a good brain, I have a lot of strength!"

"Oh, thank you so much, Senior Brother Mingqi!"

"..."

Looking at Lu Chen and Ming Qi, who were chatting and laughing, looking very close and like brothers, Ming Xiang and Ming Yun were stunned.

Ming Xiang slapped his face and said, "Uh... Lao Liu, am I seeing things right? Lao Er has taken the initiative to admit that his brain is not working well?"

Mingyun no longer cared about Mingxiang's address to him. Looking at the scene in front of him, he nodded blankly: "If I am not mistaken... Senior Brother, you are not mistaken either."

The two of them looked at each other.

Mingyun had a strange look on his face, and said with some gloating: "Big Brother, I think... you should also investigate the second brother."

Ming Xiang: “…”

Well, I thought they were all good brothers, but it turns out they are all hiding their true intentions?
Ming Xiang gnashed his teeth, am I still your dearest Senior Brother Zhuqiu! ?

As a result, everyone treats me as a blind person, right?

Mingqi's warm appearance didn't seem fake, but genuine.

He felt that the aura of fame was somewhat different, and it was smoother and more natural.

Obviously, his fundamental practice has also been improved!

My goodness, I have to ask for a way to practice cultivation secretly?
Second brother, are you doing some dirty deal! ?
Mingqi didn't know what bad thoughts his fellow disciples were thinking of him, but Mingxiang was right, he really treated Lu Chen sincerely.

Naturally, his method of cultivation was also revised by Lu Chen. After he tried it out... he wanted to slap himself a few times on the spot.

Mudd!

What are you looking for? Isn’t it great to have such a good method of practice?

The most important thing is that Lu Chen’s enlightenment really doesn’t make any sense at all.

As the old saying goes, it won’t happen again for the third time.

But it seems like Lu Chen has no upper limit at all, and enlightenment can come easily.

Yes, Lu Chen had just attained enlightenment again.

For others, reaching the state of enlightenment is a rare opportunity that only comes once in a lifetime.

But for Lu Chen, it seemed like his enlightenment was just normal practice.

There is no need to think too much about the future of this kind of person, it will definitely be good.

If you can't be friends with them, you certainly can't be their enemy!

Lu Chen seemed a little helpless.

Although Mingqi is Zhuqiu's second senior brother, the loopholes in his practice method are more than Mingyun's, directly breaking the record. A total of fifty-one loopholes were found by Lu Chen!
This is also because Mingqi is careless. Because he has always been in line with the power of the fire-attributed stars related to Mars, his temper is rather irritable and he is not as meticulous in modifying and refining his cultivation methods as Mingxiang and Mingyun.

Lu Chen also explained it to Mingyun.

Lu Chen basically understood the methods of the three of them.

The way of astrology is actually not necessarily inferior to the way of the three flowers.

It is also a bright and correct path. As long as the soul is in harmony with the stars, one can embark on the path of the Star God and let the power of the stars in the sky help him achieve enlightenment.

Although it is not as free and easy as the Way of Three Flowers, and may be restricted to the stars, it is much clearer than the Way of Three Flowers. It does not require the balance of the three forces of essence, energy and spirit like the Way of Three Flowers. In terms of the probability of breakthrough, it is actually higher than the Way of Three Flowers.

The difference between Mingxiang and the other two is not in their talent for cultivation, but in their vision.

If they were placed in the world of Journey to the West where there are immortals and gods everywhere and there is no shortage of resources and methods, they would have already achieved the state of immortality long ago.

The Qi cultivators in this vast world have a weak foundation, and the classics are pitifully few, which cannot provide them with broad ideas.

Even if they are talented enough, they are unable to break out of their current circle due to their limited vision.

Lu Chen has a high level of comprehension and a broader vision than them. Problems that they cannot understand are no problem for Lu Chen.

The stars in the sky are fighting each other fiercely and dispersing their energy. When a Qi cultivator reaches the true Qi realm, he or she must be in harmony with the stars, which is actually also considered to be in harmony with the Tao.

However, what he was in harmony with was not the way of heaven and earth, but the way of the stars, hence it is called the realm of Star Lord. There are tens of thousands of stars in the sky, although not many have names, but it is enough.

Lu Chen didn't want to throw out the Way of Three Flowers right now.

Let me keep a trump card for now.

If one mentions the method of inner alchemy, it has attracted so much attention and shock among Fuqiu Gong and others. If one mentions the method of the Three Flowers, I am afraid it will also be the focus of attention.

Lu Chen is already receiving enough attention now, and he doesn’t want to add to it.

The four of them reunited, and Mingyun asked curiously, "Second Senior Brother...what were you and Junior Brother Qing doing just now?"

Lu Chen smiled but said nothing.

Mingqi blushed slightly, but immediately returned to normal and said perfunctorily: "Hey, isn't this a misunderstanding with Senior Brother Qing? Just talk it out."

"Qing...Senior Brother?" Mingyun widened his eyes.

Hey, you second brother, you are such a cunning guy!

"A wise man is a wise one. Senior Brother Qing is a man of great virtue. Although he is younger, he is more than qualified to be my senior brother. What's the matter, Sixth Junior Brother, do you have a different opinion?" Mingqi said with a squint.

"How is that possible!" Mingyun's eyes flickered for a moment, and then he immediately said loudly: "I also think that Senior Brother Qing's virtue and talent are enough to be my senior brother! What do you think, Senior Brother?"

He looked at Ming Xiang.

I've fallen into the pit, and you can't escape either, boss!
Ming Xiang's face changed, and he was really speechless looking at his two junior brothers.

He is the oldest person present. He is over three thousand years old this year, and even a fraction of that is older than Lu Chen.

Let me call you senior brother?
It's a shame!

"I think...it should be so!" Ming Xiang nodded.

For the great cause, it’s not shameful!

Lu Chen helped them lay the foundation for their cultivation, so what's wrong with recognizing him as a senior brother?
If they were not disciples of Zhuqiu and Lu Chen's cultivation was not higher than theirs, it would be natural for them to just call him teacher.

Lu Chen found this scene funny and waved his hand, saying, "Senior brothers, please stop praising me so much. I really get carried away... Oh, I almost forgot. Senior brothers, wait for me."

Lu Chen walked to an empty place not far away and released the bronze bell.

The bronze bell instantly turned into a ray of light, opened up in the wind, and instantly turned into a giant bell about ten feet high, and then pressed hard to the ground.

After a loud bang, a big hole appeared on the ground, and then it returned to normal, slowly shrinking back to its original size and falling into Lu Chen's hands.

Bronze Bell: Released and comfortable!
"Sorry, you three, is this okay?"

Looking at the big pit in front of him, Lu Chen couldn't help but be speechless.

He said to the three people embarrassedly.

"No...it's okay." Mingqi swallowed.

Mingxiang and Mingqi looked at each other, and then turned their gazes to Mingqi.

But the latter had already turned into a curious baby, as if it had nothing to do with him: "Well, that's a bronze bell, was it given by the master... Hey, Senior Brother, Sixth Junior Brother, why are you looking at me like that?"

You second brother, you are really shameless. Are you acting crazy and stupid to this extent?
Do you think we are fools and can't see it?
Mingxiang and Mingyun both looked at him with contempt.

When the bronze bell showed this condition, it must have been that Lu Chen was about to take action inside the bamboo house, but ended up suppressing it.

There must be only one possibility, Mingqi took the initiative to bow his head!
Are you still pretending to know nothing?
Mingqi was very worried and didn't care about the looks of his senior and junior brothers.

If I don’t tell you, and Senior Brother Qing doesn’t tell you, you will never know what happened in the bamboo house!
Since you don't know, then nothing happened.

Hey, what's going on! ?
If you have the guts, come and hit me!
His attitude made the two of them very angry.

Damn, when did the second brother become so smart!

At this moment, a white cloud flew over from the horizon.

It was Mr. Fuqiu who came back.

As the clouds fell, the few people did not dare to delay and hurriedly saluted Lord Fuqiu.

Fuqiu Gong bowed his hands, and then said to Lu Chen with a smile: "Qing boy, do you know the mysterious surprise?"

Lu Chen was stunned: "Excuse me, senior, I don't know what mysterious surprise it is."

Could it be that everything that just happened was arranged by Mr. Fuqiu?

Lord Fuqiu saw that Lu Chen didn't know yet, so he glanced at Mingqi and said, "Didn't you tell him?"

The clear qi does not understand why.

Seeing this, Lord Fuqiu shook his head and said, "Forget it. I will tell you myself that Xiong Limang is dead."

He looked at Lu Chen with a smile.

Mingqi suddenly realized what was going on.

He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He didn't know that the mysterious gift that his master mentioned when he left was this!

Moreover, he had always had a bad impression of Lu Chen, so he didn't think of telling Lu Chen about this matter.

Lu Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Senior killed him?"

Master Fuqiu's expression froze, and then he waved his hands quickly: "What nonsense are you talking about? How can we, as practitioners of Taoism, commit murder for no reason? This time I went out to help identify the murderer, but I didn't find him."

Lu Chen knew that he had said something wrong. He could just think about this kind of thing in his heart, but he couldn't say it out loud. After what happened just now, his mentality was too peaceful, and he accidentally opened his mouth and said what he was thinking: "I'm sorry, senior, I lost my temper."

Fuqiu Gong smiled and said, "Nothing, but you are still young. You can talk in this bamboo hill, but you can't talk nonsense in the outside world."

"Junior understands." Lu Chen's eyes flickered.

There was Xiong Limang, and he had said at the beginning that he would kill him.

Mr. Fuqiu also said that he would help him.

Dead now?

Lord Fuqiu knew what Lu Chen was thinking when he saw this, and couldn't help but say, "Don't think too much, it was just an accident. Xiong Limang went to conquer the surrounding tribes, and he met some strong man and was killed."

Lu Chen was surprised that it was not Lord Fuqiu who killed him.

Mr. Fuqiu said again: "Now there is an explanation for your matter. Don't come to Zhuqiu in the next few days. Just stay well."

Lu Chen understood it instantly. Is this a statement about Shaohao's position?

He immediately bowed: "Thank you, senior!"

"I didn't put in much effort, so you should thank Rong Chenggong for this."

Lord Fuqiu smiled and said, "Lord Rongcheng is the Emperor's teacher. If it weren't for Lord Rongcheng's persuasion, even if I wanted to contribute, I would have no direction."

"Then where should I go to thank Lord Rong Cheng?"

"That's not necessary. Rong Chenggong is busy refining pills for the emperor and has no time to meet."

"Okay, I'll take my leave now, junior."

"Go ahead. Come to Zhuqiu again before you leave."

"The juniors will do it. Three... Senior Brothers, goodbye."

"Brother Qing, take care." The three of them were even more respectful.

After Lu Chen left, Lord Fuqiu also showed a smile on his face and was in a good mood.

After looking at his three disciples, Fuqiu Gong said, "Didn't you ask me to show you the cultivation method some time ago? I have nothing to do now, so please show it to me."

Mingxiang took out his own practice method and felt a little nervous.

Mr. Fuqiu looked at it and nodded slightly, showing his relief.

Ming Xiang's method of practice was indeed good. In some places, it made him feel as if his eyes had been opened up, and his thinking was extremely ingenious.

As he continued to watch, Mr. Fuqiu's expression became more and more serious.

He took a deep breath and looked at Ming Xiang solemnly: "Xiang'er, I was wrong. I used to think that you were gifted but not extraordinary. I never thought that your talent and understanding far exceeded my imagination!"

He had read about the fundamental practice method that Mingxiang was studying before. He could find several loopholes at a glance. It would take too long to perfect it. Even for him, he would have to go into seclusion for a while to think about it carefully.

After all, this involves the fundamental practice methods of his only three direct disciples. The slightest mistake may cause Mingxiang and the other two to stop here. In serious cases, this loophole will become bigger and bigger to the point where it cannot be repaired.

This was also the reason why he did not help several disciples to sort out their affairs before. After all, the war was fierce at that time, and Huangdi would never let a fighter like him stay in seclusion and not participate in the war.

So he gave instructions to Mingxiang and the other two, asking them to sort out their own methods of cultivation first.

Don't rush to break through, wait until he is free.

Now that he had time to take another look, he found that it was much better than the last time he checked.

There were several places that he didn't notice as loopholes even last time.

There were even a few changes that made him feel like his eyes were brightening.

What does this mean?
Naturally, it was his eldest disciple Ming Xiang, who was not an ordinary genius, but a prodigy, a real prodigy!

It's just that he was settling down in the past.

Accumulate and make progress!

A blockbuster!
Master Fuqiu is not a stubborn old fogey. On the contrary, as a sage of the Qi-refining lineage and a founder who is still contributing to the development of the Qi-refining lineage, he is very avant-garde and likes emerging things very much. He will admit his mistakes even if the person in front of him is his disciple.
