Chapter 27: The Cave House

Jinhong Mountain stands proudly in the sea, and was favored by Gan Jingcheng, the founder of Lingxiao Sect 10,000 years ago, and established a faction here, laying the foundation for inheriting the 10,000-year-old cultivation of the true name. Today, Lingxiao Sect is one of the four famous sects in the world, its strength is unfathomable, and the masters in the sect are like clouds and geniuses, and they are admired by the world, and Jinhong Mountain is also known as the first mountain in the south of Hongmeng, and it is one of the top spiritual places in the main realm of Hongmeng.

The entire Jinhong Mountain is huge, and there are hundreds of islands of different sizes scattered in the surrounding sea around the mountain range, like stars and moons, clustering this fairy mountain in the sea. According to the rules passed down by the Ling Xiao Sect for many years, the new disciples have to go to Qingyu Island to cultivate, and only the disciples who are talented and intelligent can break through to the Ning Yuan realm will be truly admitted to the mountain gate, set foot in the Jinhong Ling Mountain, and be recognized by the Ling Xiao Sect as a personal disciple, and from then on they can be regarded as truly embarking on the road of cultivating immortals.

Ten thousand years of foundation, countless generations of management, Jin Hongshan is now naturally a lot of matters should be complete, you are the Tao of the profound and highly respected Yuan Dan realm of the real people are naturally the top people in the sect, where they live is also different, although not all, but the highest place of Jin Hong Mountain is also the most abundant aura of the third of the mountaintop, almost all of these great people Qing Xiu cave, of course, there are also some important palace buildings.

In addition, where the large mountain peaks in the middle are located, there are many pavilions and many halls, including the main hall of the main hall of the sect and many places and buildings, which are stacked here, which is a very lively place on weekdays, and it is also the focus of activities of everyone in the Lingxiao Sect.

As for the bottom third of the mountain peak land, there are also beautiful and verdant mountains, built with a large number of cave mansion residences, which is where thousands of Lingxiao Sect's many personal disciples live and practice daily, countless large or small mountain paths connect them one by one, leading from all directions to the heights of Jinhong Mountain, in this spiritual energy full of spiritual energy and peaceful spiritual mountain resort, each of them is cultivating, and they are moving forward bravely on their own immortal cultivation avenue.

There are no weak people on Jinhong Mountain, this is an old saying that has been handed down many years ago, people who can set foot on this spiritual mountain are at least in the realm of Taoism in the Ning Yuan Realm, and the disciples of the Lingxiao Sect who are among the four righteous in the world, their Taoism is almost much stronger than that of the scattered cultivation of the same realm, so this sentence has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Shen Shi had cultivated on Qingyu Island under Jinhong Mountain for five years in his early years, and he knew a little about the situation in the sect, plus he walked down from the top of the mountain this way, Du Tiejian also roughly explained to him the situation on Jinhong Mountain, so he was also a little bottom in his heart.

However, this way down, when I was at the top of the mountain, I didn't feel that once I went down to the middle of the Ling Mountain, with the increase in the number of halls and pavilions, the disciples wearing the costumes of the Lingxiao Sect were suddenly a lot more, and the magnificent pavilions and palaces were either revealed in front of me, or in the distance, and they were standing upright in the distance, and after the verdant and vigorous ancient trees in the distance, there were more palace figures revealed, and countless disciples of the Lingxiao Sect came and went on this huge mountain, needless to say, each of them at least had the realm of Ning Yuan Realm, and there were a few disciples who were self-restrained and extraordinary, and they vaguely had the demeanor of the gods。

And it was in the process of passing by that Shen Shi finally really saw Du Tiejian's status in the Lingxiao Sect, almost all the disciples of the Lingxiao Sect knew him, and the greetings were endless, including those disciples who looked at the profound Dao Divine Conception disciples, and Du Tiejian looked like he was grinning, laughing, all waving at will, and walking easily.

Of course, there were many people who noticed Shen Shi who was following Du Tiejian, and when they didn't make much effort to see that Shen Shi's realm was still refining qi, many people showed a little surprise in their eyes, but maybe Du Tiejian's face was big enough to calm the scene, and he was surprised, but no one came out to ask specifically along the way.

As for the little black pig following behind Shen Shi, it was also seen by many people, but almost no one would take a second look, raising demon beasts as pets is not a particularly unusual thing for monks, just on this Jinhong Mountain, along the way, Shen Shi also saw many people with pets with more eccentric appearances than the little black pigs.

In this way, Du Tiejian took Shen Shi through the middle section of this lively and prosperous mountain, and by the way, he pointed out some important halls outside the halls, and took Shen Shi to the lower section of the mountain where most of the disciples of the Lingxiao Sect rested and lived.

Here is also the beautiful scenery, from the mountain road overlook, you can see the vast blue waves of the sea in the distance, many islands are embedded in the beautiful sea water like pearls, the fresh sea breeze blows in the face, it makes people open-minded, it is worthy of the place where the famous gate of Xianshan is.

Du Tiejian seemed to know in his heart, and took Shen Shi along the mountain road, walking in the verdant forest, meandering forward, and there were many cave facades along the way, but obviously Ling Xiao Sect here already attached great importance to the privacy of each in cultivation, and the distance between any two adjacent and closest caves was at least dozens of zhang, which was completely different from the large row of caves that were close together on Qingyu Island back then. Depending on the topography of the mountains, some caves are either yin or yang, or go out to see the sea, or are hidden deep in the mountain col forest, some stand on the precipice, and some sit on the gentle slope of the flat land.

And to this kind of cave gathering place, the surroundings are suddenly much cleaner, the shadows are rare, the birds are singing among the ancient trees and green pines, the stone door is closed, the Xianjia Cave is silent, and I don't know what kind of master and their different stories are behind the stone door of the cave.

I only heard Du Tiejian say in front of him: "Now the number of disciples in the mountain of this sect has exceeded more than two thousand, all of them have their own caves, and the rules on the mountain are different from those on Qingyu Island, and I almost told you roughly on the road just now." Although your situation is different and a little special, it is precisely because of this that it is easier to attract criticism, so what should you do in the future, can you think about it?"

Seeing Du Tiejian turn his head, Shen Shi nodded lightly, his expression calm, and said, "Thank you Senior Brother for mentioning it, I think I know what to do." ”

Du Tiejian glanced at him, bowed his head slightly, didn't say anything more, and took him on another mountain road, then came to a valley and stopped outside a cave. I saw that this place was very quiet, there didn't seem to be many caves around, the nearest one was fifty zhang away, and almost without exception outside the caves in this valley were stone doors closed, and the front of the door was full of dead branches and leaves, and it seemed that few people lived and practiced here.

There is only one place that is an exception, that is, the one more than fifty zhang away from the Shen Shi Cave Mansion, although the stone gate is also closed, the path in front of the cave is very clean. And when passing by the cave, Du Tiejian's footsteps obviously paused, and his eyes seemed to stare at the stone gate inadvertently for a moment, but other than that, he didn't make any more moves, so he walked gently past the quiet and silent cave.

When the two came to Shen Shi's cave, they saw that there was a dense forest above the cave, with many ancient trees and old vines, which looked verdant and lush, and in addition to a mountain road in front of the cave, there was a hillside outside, and the green grass on it was like a green grass blanket, obliquely downward. If it is elsewhere, it may be a good cave with a wide line of sight, but there is a majestic mountain peak in front of this mountain wall, which directly blocks all the sight in front of it, and even the sunlight is difficult to fall, plus the bottom of the valley under the slope in front of the cave, there is a small stream flowing through, the sound of rushing water comes from the upstream, and in a blink of an eye, there is a white splash of water, and there seems to be a small waterfall hidden behind the dense trees, which makes the surrounding of this cave seem very cool and damp.

This is obviously not a good cultivation cave mansion, cold and silent, too much yin qi and even insufficient yang qi, but when Du Tiejian turned around to look at Shen Shi, Shen Shi did not have the slightest look of disgust on his face, but instead showed a somewhat calm smile and nodded at him.

Du Tie's swordsman threw it and threw something over, Shen Shi reached out to catch it, only felt a little familiar, and after a while, he remembered, isn't this thing the kind of cloud talisman he used to use back then?

Du Tiejian pointed to the stone gate of the cave mansion, Shen Shi pondered for a moment, walked over, recalled the time when he was on Qingyu Island, and then gently pressed the cloud talisman towards the stone gate.

A thick layer of fallen leaves, with a slight corrupt aura peculiar to the valley forest, made a light sound under his feet, and a moment later, as the light on the cloud talisman lit up, a low voice came from behind the stone door, and the two stone doors slowly opened, revealing a silent and silent stone chamber cave in front of Shen Shi and Du Tiejian's eyes.

Du Tiejian walked in with him, and at the same time said lightly: "Most of the caves on the mountain have similar specifications, but the difference is only that the location is different. Generally speaking, the disciples of the sect will stay for a long time if they are assigned a cave house, and unless they have made great contributions, they will not change the cave house again. ”

Shen Shi walked into the stone gate, looked around quietly, and looked at this stone room that might be the one he would live in for a long time in the future, compared to the cave mansion on Qingyu Island before, the cave mansion in front of him was obviously much larger, and the outer room where the entrance was located was as big as the entire cave mansion that day.

In front of them, there are five stone gates, revealing that there is more space inside.

Du Tiejian smiled and walked forward with him, and at the same time explained to him one by one: "Outside is the stone room for guests, and it is also a place to deal with some miscellaneous things, and there are five stone rooms in it, each of which is of different sizes, each with its own usefulness, but you may not be able to use it now." ”

As he spoke, he walked to the stone room on the far left and said, "This is your bedroom, and you should be here for your daily life and cultivation." ”

Speaking of this, he seemed to think of something again, and turned his head to Shen Shi and said: "Although you are staying on the mountain now, the rules of the sect will not be particularly changed for you, but all the rules on this mountain are in accordance with the Dao realm of at least the Ning Yuan Realm, and I am afraid that it will be a little difficult for you, so all the premise, it is better for you to break through the Ning Yuan Realm as soon as possible." After a pause, his voice seemed to be lowered, and he said, "Go back and take this cloud talisman and go to the elixir hall of the Dantang in the mountain, someone will give you a elixir, and when you break through the realm, it may be of some help." ”

Shen Shi's heart jumped, for monks, breaking the realm is the top priority, and the elixir that can help break the realm is simply self-evident, this favor is really not small, but I don't know if it is the command of the master Huaiyuan Zhenren, or the favor of this Senior Brother Du, but Du Tiejian doesn't seem to have the meaning to elaborate, Shen Shi didn't ask any more details, but just said sincerely: "Thank you, senior brother." ”

Du Tiejian waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's nothing, compared to several other advanced realms to break through the realm, refining qi to the Ning Yuan realm is still the easiest, and some children of the family actually have to take it, but the effect is different for everyone." However, if the realm is one level higher, then the elixir is a treasure of heaven and earth, and it is invaluable, and even I have never seen it. By the way, I heard that there are a lot of newcomers in Dantang, and you may meet a few of your friends when you go over, don't forget the reasons we talked about before. ”

Shen Shi was silent for a moment, nodded with a smile, and said, "Senior brother, don't worry." ”
