Chapter Eighty-Eight: Genius Master
Compared with the bustle of the exercise area, the biography and history books area is very deserted, there are not only commonly used jade slips, but even bamboo slips and paper books commonly used to record in the world, all of which are sporadic records of the history of the immortal cultivation world, which are not what she is looking for.
The historical records of the sect are a whole row of jade slips, neatly arranged according to the time of the recorded content. Because he knew the specific age of his master's existence, Jingli quickly found the records of the sect at that time.
"Dao number Xuyang, the disciple of the master, eighteen-year-old to build the foundation, ninety-year-old to the Dan, one hundred and ninety-eight years old to the late stage of the Dan ......" Seeing this, Jingli gasped, and couldn't imagine that the master was a monk who could be called a genius.
In today's immortal cultivation world, building a foundation before the age of thirty can be called a genius, such as the same head disciple, Mo Li, who built a foundation at the age of twenty-eight. Not only did the master already have a Dan at the age of eighteen, but he was already in the late stage of Dan at the age of less than two hundred, what a cultivation speed he was.
“…… He was good at alchemy, and fell when he traveled at the age of two hundred and one. ”
Tianqingshan's description of Xuyang is only a few short lines. Jingli searched the jade slip again, but there was no more information about the master.
Why is that? Master's cultivation speed can definitely be called a genius, even if he "falls" early, it shouldn't be just a description of these three or two sentences. Jingli looked at the records of the other elders again, and was even more puzzled, the master should be the disciple of the previous head, as a former elder, a genius in cultivation, the record of his life is actually the least among all the elders of the past generations, why is this?
Jingli walked out of the library with a heavy heart, and after today, the pressure in her heart was even greater. Nowadays, among the sects, the only ones who can intersect with the master are the head of the sect and the Shulan Daojun, but she is even more afraid to act rashly, instinctively telling her that there is a problem between the master and the sect.
Moreover, this problem is very likely to come after the master's "fall", that is, after falling to the ground-level realm, because in the master's last words, there was no mention of anything that needs to be paid attention to about the sect, and the matter of the sect's secret book "Ice and Fire Recipe" was also very natural, obviously he was very valued by the sect at that time, but the sect's attitude towards the master was very problematic.
Jingli was a little lucky, glad that she didn't expose it easily because of her scruples and the promise of the Void Master, if she hadn't held back and said what happened to the master, I'm afraid things wouldn't have gone as smoothly as she thought.
The matter about the master was like a stone pressing on Jingli's heart.
Since entering the spirit realm, she has always tried to avoid thinking deeply about her master, and she has not been able to find any traces left by her master. One is because the master left her few clues, and the other is that she didn't pay attention to it.
The journey of cultivating immortals is originally full of risks, dangers are everywhere, and the master himself should also deeply understand that people die like lights going out, so why care about too many people and things in life.
But this time she found something different, and she had to think more. Now she naturally already knew that the magic circle leading to the earth-level realm was a forbidden technique, and ordinary people did not have the opportunity to contact it. She originally thought that the tragedy of the master was only caused by the conflict between an ordinary monk back then, but now the sect's few words of the master's record indicate that the master's experience may have something else to do, and it is related to the people in the sect.
She can not follow in the footsteps of her master, but it does not mean that she can accept that her master was framed, since she has inherited the mantle of master, helping him avenge is what she should do as an apprentice. Even if the master didn't tell her what was going on, since she had some conjectures, she couldn't pretend not to know.
On this day, Lin Yan went to give several inner seniors the spirit stones they had obtained from consignment sales of spirit runes, leaving Jingli and Cui Ming to stay in Shiyuan Hall.
Jingli thought for a while, and deliberately asked in a curious tone: "Senior Cui, have you heard that there was a genius elder in the sect, the Taoist name Xuyang?" ”
"I don't know." Cui Ming thought for a while, shook his head, and replied: "Since the founding of Tianqing Mountain, there have been elders who don't know how to go, if you ask the master, I may know a little more." Is this elder famous? "Of course, there is another point that Cui Ming didn't say, who will remember a dead elder, and he is not the ancestor of the founding sect.
"Oh, I just accidentally saw an elder with the famous Taoist name Xuyang when I was looking at the sect records a few days ago, building a foundation at the age of eighteen, knotting Dan at the age of ninety, and ending at the age of one hundred and ninety-eight, I think such a character can be called a genius among geniuses, so I admire it, but unfortunately this elder suddenly fell about three hundred years ago, and there are very few records left, so I want to ask if anyone knows the anecdote of this elder, it is a little curious, after all, if such a person is alive, maybe there are three Yuan Babies in the door, where is there anything about the Quanquan faction."
The Quanquan Sect has always been the old enemy of Tianqing Mountain, and Jingli found that whenever it came to things related to the Quanquan Sect, basically the older monks had a very bad tone, so she deliberately used a very regretful tone.
"If you say so, it was indeed remarkable back then, but a monk who fell halfway, no matter how brilliant he was when he was alive, is not a genius when he is dead. Furthermore, judging a monk cannot be judged purely by the speed of cultivation, but by how far he can go. Cui Ming thought about it seriously, and found that there was indeed no such elder in his memory, after all, the immortal cultivation world did not know how many "geniuses" fell every year, and only those true powers could be remembered by future generations for their names and Dao numbers.
This truth, Jingli can naturally figure it out, but she still can't believe it, even if the fallen "genius" will eventually be forgotten, but at least there will be some traces left in the sect, the few words on the jade slip make her not believe that it is just because of the master's "early death".
It was an elder in the late stage of the Jiedan, and he was so young, he must have been cultivated as the pillar of the future sect, but he was "dead", but only a few words were left?
Cui Ming is only over seventy years old, and it is not surprising that he doesn't know what happened three hundred years ago, but what about Deacon Li? Deacon Li has never experienced Master's time, but maybe when Deacon Li was young, he would have heard about Master's deeds?
On the second day, Jingli took out a few ghost drawing talismans that she had practiced and went to Deacon Li's cave.
Because they called Deacon Li a teacher, the token to enter the cave was not withdrawn later. It's just that considering that Deacon Li may not like to be disturbed all the time, Jingli has not gone to the cave to find him before.
Hey? I only entered the cave to take a look, but I was startled.
The original yellow spirit grass field was divided into several small pieces in an orderly manner at this time, each piece was planted with different kinds of spirit grass, and now it has just grown green shoots, and the original dilapidated grass shed at the other end of the spirit grass field has been renovated, although it cannot be said that the whole cave has a new look, but at least it has some vitality.
Originally, Deacon Li's cave house may be said to be the owner's life is relatively casual, or it can be said to be full of decadent atmosphere.
Jingli was a little surprised by the changes in this cave mansion, could it be that Deacon Li's mood has changed a lot recently?
She turned her head to see a person emerging from the withered yellow spirit grass that had not yet been cleared at the other end.
