Shangguan Xu Yang didn't know how important the medicinal materials he had obtained by chance were to others, and Shangguan Xu Yang was now preparing for Shangmao Mountain at this time.

Since it is necessary to refine the Yi Marrow Pill of the Washing Scriptures, it is necessary to need medicinal materials, and now the medicinal materials are probably basically the main medicine - the thousand-year-old Tai Sui has no clue.

Tai Sui, also known as meat Ganoderma lucidum, according to Professor Wang Chaojiang of the "Tai Sui Association": Meat Ganoderma lucidum, legend has it that Qin Shi Huang was looking for the elixir of immortality. Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica" records that there is meat Ganoderma lucidum, and it is included in the "vegetable" department "Zhi" category, which can be eaten and used in medicine, and is regarded as "the top grade of this scripture", and the effect is "long-term food, light body and immortal, and prolonging life". According to the "Shennong Materia Medica", it is recorded: "Meat Ganoderma lucidum, non-toxic, tonifying, benefiting essence, increasing wisdom, treating knots in the chest, and being light and immortal for a long time." "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" called it "Seeing Meat", "Gathering Meat", "Tai Sui", and "Sealing", which are the health delicacies of ancient emperors. Tai Sui is very rare and is the top grade of the hundred medicines. According to the classics, Tai Sui is flat, bitter, non-toxic, and has the value of nourishing the spleen and lungs, nourishing the kidneys and benefiting the liver. Modern scientists believe that Tai Sui is a large slime mold complex, but its cellular structure is still not visible under the microscope. In the "Compendium of Materia Medica", it is recorded: "The meat is like meat. Attached to a boulder, the head and tail have it, and it is a living thing. The red ones are like coral, the white ones are like fat, the black ones are like lacquer, the green ones are like green feathers, the yellow ones are like purple gold, and all are bright and penetrating like solid ice." Ge Hong, a Taoist of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, recorded in "Hug Puzi", "Zhuzhi pounds the powder, or turns into water clothes, which makes people light and immortal." "It is the elixir of immortality that the ancients believed. Tai Sui is very rare, it is the top grade in the hundred medicines, there are classic records, Tai Sui is flat, bitter, non-toxic, has the value of nourishing the spleen and lungs, nourishing the kidney and benefiting the liver.

It's hard to say that Tai Sui is a thing, just the environment in which it grows is very harsh, and it will absorb people's luck, and it's Tai Sui, that's how Tai Sui came.

To be honest, even Shangguan Xu Yang didn't know where to find this thing, and it would take thousands of years, maybe it would become a refinement.

"Forget it, the car has its own road before the mountain" Shangguan Xu Yang said to himself, it's not that Shangguan Xu Yang likes to talk to himself, but the strong are lonely! There are so many secrets on it.

Then Shangguan Xu Yang followed Uncle Jiu and Daoist Simei to the mountain gate of the Maoshan faction.

Speaking of which, in fact, the Laoshan faction and the Maoshan faction are both originating from Taoism in terms of sects, and it is unknown when and what month they were founded. The two major sects used to be in the same vein a hundred years ago, and at that time there was a very special sect called "Shu". Although the disciples in the "Shu School" cannot open the heavens and the earth, soar the clouds and drive the fog, they can drive away ghosts and catch demons, hoe and punish evil, gossip Zhou Yi, and the five elements of feng shui are very good.

Later, there were two kinds of differences in the word "art", and two factions were gradually formed, and the root of the difference was whether to participate in the disputes between the rivers and lakes. The originator of Laoshan believed that cultivators, since they learned spells, should use these magical spells to establish their own status in the rivers and lakes. The originator of Maoshan believes that cultivators, in addition to relieving the world of bad luck and disasters, should not meddle too much in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, especially the state of mind, but also stop the water and do not have distracting thoughts. These two opinions have their own supporters, so that later they became more and more stiff, and finally the two sides fought, resulting in the word "art" being scattered and divided.

It is said that the battle between the two factions with different opinions lasted for seven days and seven nights, with rivers of blood and countless casualties, and the winner could not be distinguished. In the end, the originators of the two factions agreed that from now on, every seven years, the two factions would each send five disciples to fight a duel at the top of Huashan.

The originator of Laoshan is called Qing Zhenzi, who was over 80 years old at the time, but the person who cultivates the truth still looks quite young because of his special spiritual power. After this battle, he led his disciples to Laoshan near the East China Sea, and since then he has proclaimed himself an old immortal of Laoshan, recruited disciples, and carried forward the Laoshan faction.

Laoshan was called "Lao Mountain" in ancient times, or "Prison Mountain", and was rumored to be "the house of the gods" since ancient times, with an altitude of thousands of meters. According to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", it is recorded: "Langya is in the current Bozhou capital, and there are mountains in the northeast of it, and there are mountains in the northeast. Laoshan is in the sea, and it is called "prison mountain".

The disciples of Laoshan are good at driving away ghosts and catching demons, cursing curses, traditional medicine, and leyline feng shui. Because there are no cumbersome rules, the disciples act between good and evil, claiming to only respect the mandate of heaven and not being close to human feelings.

The tragic seven-day dispute razed the "Shupai" to the ground, and there was no longer any life. So Qingquanzi, the originator of Maoshan Mountain, also led his subordinates to stay away from their homeland and came to Maoshan Mountain in the south of the Yangtze River.

Maoshan was formerly known as Juqu Mountain, also known as Dilung Mountain, with beautiful scenery and pleasant climate. Qingquanzi built a Taoist temple here and preached Taoism

Entering the territory of the Maoshan faction, the first thing that catches your eye is the towering mountain peak, the huge mountain gate, although it is a little old but simple and atmospheric, it looks very spectacular.

It may be that the aura of this world is very sufficient, Shangguan Xu Yang saw a lot of natural earth veins along the way, and the so-called earth veins are feng shui, dragon veins and the like.

Shangguan Xu Yang, who saw it, was amazed, the air here was much better than that of a modern city, and now there is a natural formation, which really makes Shangguan Xu Yang linger.

Now Shangguan Xu Yang takes a breath of air and contains aura, but unfortunately, it is not much help to Shangguan Xu Yang now.

However, for those ordinary people, living here all the year round may really be able to prolong their lives, after all, Shangguan Xu Yang has seen several old men and grandmothers who are over 100 years old along the way.

The Maoshan faction is actually very eager for Shangguan Xu Yang, the little junior disciple who has just joined Maoshan, to be able to practice the Meridian Washing Pill.

Speaking of which, they can really be said to be inferior to the generation compared to the previous generations, and there are many reasons: the weakening of the aura in heaven and earth is one thing, and the rampant demons and monsters are another thing, the key is that people are lazy, and if they don't want to make progress for a long time, they will retreat if they don't advance.

Shangguan Xu Yang and Uncle Jiu and the four eyebrows of the Taoist entered the sect mountain gate together, it was a temple-like Daoguan, which looked relatively large, Shangguan Xu Yang had heard Uncle Jiu say before he came, Maoshan was divided into three areas.

One is at the foot of the mountain, one is on the mountainside, and the last one is at the top of the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain is the residence of the registered disciples and beginner disciples of the Maoshan faction, which is relatively simple and average, with three meals a day, coarse tea and light rice.

It is mainly to test the spirit and heart of the new disciples to endure hardships and stand hard work.

As for the mountainside, it is the residence of the inner disciples and elite disciples, and there is a special cultivation site, because there are already spells, so they will also conduct assessments from time to time, issue tasks and the like.

Finally, there is the top of the mountain, where the aura is the most intense, it is the retreat place of the heads and elders of the Maoshan faction.

Uncle Nine can be regarded as an inner gate law enforcement elder, and the peak mana cultivation of the Heavenly Heaven is also considered to be the top three in the Maoshan faction, except for the head of the sect.

But he has an uninhibited personality and doesn't want to be bound by the sect, so he opened a righteous village by himself, helps others do something, practices by the way, and returns to the sect for a few days every month.

From the foot of the Maoshan faction to the top of the mountain, along the way, Shangguan Xu Yang met many Taoist priests wearing Taoist uniforms, and when he saw the ninth uncle and the four eyebrows, he respectfully shouted "Uncle Shi" or "Uncle Shizu"

The reason is that the Maoshan faction is calculated by generation, and when it comes to the ninth uncle, their generation is counted as nineteen generations of disciples, and the disciples they accept are counted as twenty generations of disciples, and so on.

As long as the Maoshan faction has achieved cultivation and passed the elder's review, it can recruit disciples from the outside world.

So along the way, a bunch of juniors wanted to brush up on their sense of existence when they saw Uncle Nine and the Four Eyebrows.
