The copy of the universe from the journey to the west

Chapter 35 There are magical peaches on Rotten Peach Mountain, and the Queen Mother of Yaochi grants magical powers (seeking monthly ticket recommendation tickets!)
Lu Chen was quite satisfied with the speed at which his cultivation progressed.

In the beginning, he could only perform 36 exercises to extract essence, but now he can do it more than 100 times at a time, and the frequency has also been successfully promoted from three times a day to five times a day!

Not only did the number of times increase, but the speed of refining essence also became much faster. The time was almost the same as the previous three times of practice, not much more time.

Because of his external skills, Lu Chen doesn't have to worry about excessive collection of his own essence causing it to be depleted.

It is much faster than those brothers who only practice static exercises.

As a result, his cultivation speed increased, but he did not become weak because of it. On the contrary, because of the chain reaction, a virtuous circle was formed. Lu Chen estimated that it saved him at least one third of his time.

As a result, the time it takes to absorb Qi into the body has also increased from half an incense stick to nearly two incense sticks of time and a little more, which represents a great step forward for Lu Chen's practice.

Generally speaking, if one can spend as much time as three incense sticks to practice once to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon from heaven and earth, then one has actually reached the state of perfect Qi training.

In addition, the study of magic has not been neglected either.

However, after studying the "Detailed Explanation of Spells", Lu Chen discovered that the spells recorded in it were slightly better than the "Clothes Purification Spell" and "Fire Burning Spell".

But it's only a little better.

It was of no use to him, and it would be much faster for him to study magic by understanding the world on his own. In the end, he simply studied carefully the magic patterns in "Detailed Explanation of Magic" that he thought were suitable, absorbed them into his own system, and then studied them on his own.

Finally, listen to the master’s teachings.

The frequency of Master Subhuti's sermons remained the same as before, once every ten days, and after each sermon, he would disappear.

Sometimes, when he was in a good mood, he would pick one or two disciples to ask about their progress and difficulties in cultivation, and give them answers.

Unfortunately, Lu Chen has not been selected once in the past six months.

However, this is normal, as those who were chosen to ask questions are all brothers who have connected the bridge between heaven and earth and have basically received the second transmission of the Dharma.

They are the true registered disciples of the ancestor.

Lu Chen did not complain about his fate.

A great master like Subhuti can preach to ordinary monks like them who have not even reached the level of ordinary immortals, and he does it once every ten days. What else can they ask for?

Just ask the true disciples of those large sects in the Southern Continent that have established mountain gates and call themselves so-called "immortal sects" whether they receive such treatment?
It’s possible to have a master-level figure come and preach three times a month!

This is something that would make you laugh even in your dreams, okay! ?
Of course, Lu Chen did not spend all his time practicing.

Diligence and hard work are of course important, but one should not overdo it and fall into "Taoism obsession".

In his spare time, Lu Chen would discuss scriptures and doctrines, practice calligraphy and burn incense with some of his fellow brothers who he could get along with, such as Zhen'an, Huizhi, Zhinan, etc.

Or when other fellow disciples had their own work to do and I had nothing to do, I would sweep the floor, hoe the garden, grow flowers, prune trees, look for firewood to make fire, and fetch water to transport pulp.

After a long time, his mind became calm, and Lu Chen actually found these little things interesting.

My mind becomes more peaceful, and the world and nature seem more leisurely and gentle.

Only in this way can there be a bit of the charm of practicing Taoism. After a long time, the heart of Taoism becomes natural, and there is no distraction. Even when practicing daily, there is a sense of improvement.

On this day, when he was preparing to discuss scriptures and doctrines with his fellow brothers, he heard that the peach trees in the Rotten Peach Mountain behind the Immortal Palace were ripe.

So after a long period of meditation, he set out with his fellow brothers to talk about Taoism and the Xuan family, and they came to the Peach Forest.

"Brother, why is this mountain called Rotten Peach Mountain?"

Lu Chen looked at the peach forest all over the mountain and asked with some confusion.

The name Rotten Peach Mountain is not a good name.

But look at this mountain full of peach trees, where are the rotten peaches?
Each peach is juicy and full of peach fragrance. They are obviously rare and good peaches.

“I don’t know either.” Senior Brother Huizhi shook his head: “I heard from the senior brothers earlier that Rotten Peach Mountain was the name given by the ancestor. Since I came here, this place has always been called Rotten Peach Mountain.”

Then he smiled and said, "Some senior brothers said that the peaches in Rotten Peach Mountain are spiritual fruits. They are planted from the peach pits left by our ancestor when he attended the Peach Banquet. I don't know if it's true or not."

"If it is really a peach, wouldn't it mean that eating one will allow one to ascend to heaven and become an immortal?"

Zhen An on the side interrupted with a slightly disdainful look on his face.

However, he did not believe that the peaches from Rotten Peach Mountain were the peaches from the sacred land of Yao Chi in heaven.

He had eaten peaches from Rotten Peach Mountain last year, but apart from the fact that they tasted better than the peaches from the foot of the mountain and made his body lighter and his mind more relaxed, there were no other effects.

Not to mention becoming an immortal, even his Taoism skills didn't improve at all.

It was far inferior to the spiritual fruits he had eaten when he was a prince in the palace.

"You ate too early."

Huizhi said calmly: "Did you eat after July 18th, or before July 18th?"

Zhen An looked confused. How could he remember the day when he was eating peaches? He just ate them when he was hungry.
"Does it mean that to eat the peaches from Rotten Peach Mountain, we need to light an incense burner, place offerings, and pray to heaven and earth?" Zhen An looked hesitant.

If this is the only way to be effective... well, it's not impossible to do it.

After all, when becoming an immortal, one cannot be careless, one must give everything a try. What if the Queen Mother of the West in the Yaochi Pool in heaven is moved by his sincerity and enlightens him to become an immortal?

"Hehe... This is not bad. Perhaps the day of my becoming an immortal is today. Otherwise, I'll go get the incense burner..." The more Zhen'an thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, and his expression gradually became more relaxed.

"Snapped!"

Huizhi looked at Zhen'an's gradually becoming insane expression, stepped forward and patted him on the back of the head: "What are you thinking about, idiot! Don't disrespect heaven and earth!"

"Ouch!" Zhenan held his head and wailed.

Lu Chen laughed out loud: "Brother Zhen'an, the way of cultivation is to cultivate the mind and self. Just seeking enlightenment from external things is taking a shortcut and is not advisable."

Zhen An said indifferently: "You are geniuses, what do I have to compete with you?"

Lu Chen remained silent.

This... is actually true.

Huizhi looked at Zhen'an's antics and shook his head slightly: "If you read more classics, you should know."

At this time, Lu Chen pondered for a moment and said, "The Queen Mother's birthday?"

"What?" Zhenan was confused.

"The Queen Mother's birthday, a grand gathering at Yaochi."

Lu Chen explained: "Today is July 18th. Senior Brother Huizhi means that only on this day will the peaches from Rotten Peach Mountain have a miraculous effect, right?"

Then, Lu Chen looked at Hui Zhi again: "Could it be that the Queen Mother will really send down the fruit of wisdom and enlightenment on this day?"

"what!"

Zhen An, who was standing by, immediately jumped up and said, "Then I'll go get the incense burner and offerings ready!"

"..."

Lu Chen was speechless.
