Chapter 405: Igniting the Divine Fire
Jiang country, Yandang Mountain, this place is three hundred miles away from the imperial capital in a straight line, not far, but not too close. It is a good place with beautiful mountains and rivers and outstanding people.
According to legend, some people have also seen immortals in the deep mountains. For this reason, the locals spontaneously built a Taoist temple on the mountain, enshrined an unknown immortal.
On this day, an old man wearing a robe, white temples and a wrinkled face came to the official road outside Yandang Mountain, he lifted the curtain of the carriage and jumped out of the car.
After getting out of the car, he stared at the highest point of Yandang Mountain with deep eyes, and the corners of his mouth covered by his beard rose slightly, revealing a trace of an unknown smile.
After watching for a while, he sent the coachman who led the way, and went up the mountain alone. When he went up the mountain, he went straight to the Taoist temple that was at least 100 years old.
The Taoist temple is not very grandiose, and after a hundred years of wind, frost, rain and snow, it has looked a little dilapidated, of course, people sometimes come to tinker, so, on the whole, the Taoist temple is still very strong, and the years have only added a layer of vicissitudes to it.
Although it is not so magnificent, although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs, and the incense inside it is more vigorous than the Taoist temples in other places.
"Good, good, very good." The old man nodded in satisfaction, then turned to leave.
When night fell, when it was pitch black on Yandang Mountain, a flexible figure quietly entered the Taoist temple. The figure came to the nameless statue without hindrance, leaped onto the offering table, and was level with the statue.
Then, he stretched out his hands and put them on the statue's chest, and at the same time he said something in his mouth, and after a few moments, the statue began to glow, and in an instant it illuminated the whole room, and of course, the mysterious figure.
Under the light, what was revealed was an old man with a wrinkled face, and the old man was now looking at the statue with a lewd face, the corners of his mouth were grinning, revealing a pervert-like smile, as if what was in front of him was not a statue, but a beautiful woman who had captivated the country and the city.
"Huh~"
Suddenly, a pale golden light shot out from the center of the statue's eyebrows, and the light went straight into the center of the old man's eyebrows.
"Hmm~" The expression on the old man's face began to change violently, and sometimes he was so comfortable that even the folds were smoothed, and sometimes he wrinkled into an old chrysanthemum that had withered for a long time......
As time passed, the light at the center of the statue's eyebrows faded and eventually disappeared, and after a few breaths, the light on the sculpture disappeared, and darkness returned to the room.
"Ah~" The old man groaned in a low voice and fell limply into the statue's arms.
After a while, he raised his head, with a happy face, and then, he laughed loudly, "Hahaha, I succeeded, I finally succeeded, fifteen years, a full eighty-one temples and Taoist temples......"
"I, Danger, can finally condense my faith and ignite the divine fire, and from now on, I will be an immortal!"
He was Chinese New Year's Eve five years old, and when he was twenty years old, he accidentally obtained a mysterious exercise called "Faith Fengshen Lu", which is a cultivation method that directly points to the supreme avenue, if a cultivator wants to ignite the divine fire and condense the immortal bones, he must first absorb the faith condensed in the eighty-one places, and then he can further cultivate.
Now, fifteen years later, he has finally absorbed the faith of eighty-one places, and he can finally take that step.
Thinking about it now, his heart is very excited.
"Once I succeed in lighting the divine fire, I can regain my youth and get rid of this old body......" Danger was so excited that he almost burst into tears.
Since he practiced this exercise, his face has been getting older day by day, and now he is obviously a young man in his thirties, but he looks like an old man in his eighties. Because of this, he once wanted to give up this exercise, but once he gave up, he had to drag this old body to survive.
Just kidding, he's a handsome guy, but he looks like an old man, this is a fart, he can't even find a wife.
Therefore, even in order to regain his youth, he has to continue to practice.
Besides, these are all normal, according to the introduction of the exercises, that is, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, and empty their bodies...... Only after going through all kinds of hardships can we see the great way.
Now, he's done it, and he's about to see the avenue.
Wei Chang felt that his body was full of strength, and the rolling power was running in his body, injecting vitality into his shriveled body, and that feeling of youth came to his heart again, and he couldn't help but yell, "Ah, cool~"
After a while, a flash of lightning flashed in his eyes, and he looked at his hands, which were smooth and vibrant, and the thin, twilight aura was gone.
"Sure enough, I've regained my youth, and now it's time to light the fire."
At that moment, the danger often fell to the ground lightly, sat cross-legged, and entered a state of concentration. His consciousness sank into the depths of the sea of consciousness, where the stars were dotted like countless fireflies flying.
Wei Chang stared intently for a moment, and roared, "Ning! ”
"Huh~" Countless stars converged together, condensing into one in the eyes of constant anticipation...... Small flames. He didn't see the raging fire in his imagination, only a small flame the size of a bean sprout.
"This ......" Wei Chang was dumbfounded, unable to accept it for a while.
I've been through a lot of hardships, but I only get such a small flame that seems to be extinguished at any time, this is a joke for me!
At this time, an idea came out of the small flame, and after receiving it, it suddenly dawned on me, "It turns out that most of the power has rejuvenated me, and if you want to promote the growth of the flame, you need more power of faith." And now that the divine fire is ignited, I don't need to go to places like Taoist temples to absorb it, I just need to sit quietly, and the power of faith will be absorbed by me. ”
"Well, it seems that I was too anxious."
Danger Chang shook his head, exited the state of concentration, and prepared to find a quiet place to retreat.
……
When Wei Chang succeeded in condensing a small flame, a man in a white robe with a compassionate face in a certain cave opened his eyes, and a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.
"Another successful one, this is the thirty-sixth puppet." The man muttered to himself.
There are only thirty-six people who can survive the backlash of resentment and finally ignite the divine fire. In fact, faith is not so easy to absorb, those believers in the power of faith at the same time, there will also be all kinds of requirements, if you can't do it, then sorry, it will turn into resentment haunted you. Once the resentment accumulates too much, it will erode your longevity and luck......
That's why a man doesn't collect faith himself, and he doesn't do this kind of thing that will put him in if he's not careful. All he had to do was sit behind the scenes and extract the pure faith of those puppets.
