Chapter 11: The Rite of Enlightenment
Just when Lin Zhenxi was setting up his ambitions, there was a commotion in the crowd.
Curious, she walked over and it turned out to be two teenagers arguing.
"With your father's qualifications, you won't be much better, you better go home and sleep, what kind of Yinghe will go?" said one of the teenagers arrogantly.
This young man Lin Zhenxi recognized that it was Lin Dingkun, the grandson of the elders of the Lin family's law enforcement hall, who often bullied the weak by relying on his grandfather's power.
When he saw the face of another teenager, Lin Zhenxi was in a trance, this teenager's name was Lin Changsheng. In the previous life, when Lin Zhenxi was exiled by the Lin family, everyone laughed at her, only Lin Changsheng did not, he sympathized with the little girl who was exiled at a young age because she didn't know people clearly, and helped her from time to time, teaching her many survival skills and cultivation skills, otherwise how could Lin Zhenxi live past 30 years old in the previous life.
As soon as Lin Zhenxi came back, he wanted to go to the other party to repay his kindness, but after thinking about it, he had nothing to help the other party now, and he would go to him when he grew up, but he didn't expect to meet here.
Seeing Lin Dingkun laughing at himself like this, Lin Changsheng clenched his fists fiercely, his eyes were red, staring at the other party deadly, holding back the desire to speak, he couldn't talk back, once he returned his mouth, the other party would have a reason to fix himself, he had no backstage, if he was injured, he would only add trouble to his mother.
Lin Zhenxi didn't know why Lin Dingkun bullied Lin Changsheng like this, the people around him were coaxing, wanting the two of them to fight, and no one stopped Lin Dingkun's behavior. She couldn't stand it anymore, so she stepped forward and said, "Lin Dingkun, you are too much, please stop in moderation." ”
Lin Changsheng was very surprised when he saw someone come to help him, he didn't think too much about his simple nature, although he was very grateful for the kindness of the other party, but he was worried that she would be retaliated against by Lin Dingkun, so he said: "This girl, thank you for your kindness, I can handle this matter myself." ”
Lin Dingkun didn't care so much, seeing that someone didn't bother himself to teach others, he just wanted to reprimand the other party, but after seeing that the person who came was Lin Zhenxi, he barely squeezed out a smile on his face, which looked distorted and ridiculous: "Yo, isn't this Miss Lin Zhenxi?
Lin Dingkun has often heard his grandfather praise Lin Zhenxi for how diligent he is in the past three years, and his achievements in the future will definitely not be low, although he doesn't think that refining is of any use to cultivating immortals, but he still doesn't want to offend the other party.
Lin Zhenxi said: "You bully others for no reason, how can this be a trivial matter?"
"How can this be for no reason? How can it be considered bullying? He Lin Changsheng has low qualifications, I said that he has no hope for the road in his life, just don't study the true realm, how dangerous it is to cultivate the truth, staying at home is for his sake, don't you say?"
Lin Zhenxi wanted to say something, but was stopped by Lin Changsheng, he shook his head and persuaded: "It's okay, I'm used to it." ”
Lin Zhenxi felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, Lin Changsheng's father was the scum of the Lin family, and his cultivation was only one level of qi refining.
Lin Changsheng's own qualifications are indeed not very good, but he can barely cultivate immortals. In his previous life, Lin Zhenxi saw that he was stuck in the fourth layer of qi refining for ten years! Ten years, ordinary people could already reach the seventh layer of qi refining in ten years.
Lin Zhenxi also asked him, since your qualifications are so bad, you may not be able to build a foundation for the rest of your life, is it worth spending time on this doomed and hopeless thing?
Lin Changsheng's specific answer is not very clear, but his persistence gave Lin Zhenxi a great shock, letting her know that since she has chosen the path of cultivating immortals, she must have a firm heart, if you are undetermined about cultivating immortals, then how can you preach?
At this moment, the head of the Lin family came out, and when he saw that the main courtyard was full of people, he was obviously very relieved that there were successors to the Lin family, and left after saying a few words of encouragement as usual. This time, it was Lin Zhengyi, the new elder of the Lin family, who led the children to Yinghe.
I saw Lin Zhengyi take out a boat-shaped magic weapon from his arms-Dragon Tooth Flying Boat, and blow it to his mouth, and the magic weapon instantly became hundreds of times larger and floated in the air.
The Lin family and others were envious, hoping that they could also have such a flying magic weapon.
Receiving so many envious eyes, Lin Zhengyi was very proud, he flew to the dragon's teeth, raised his eyebrows and said, "This year, I took you to Yinghe for the opening ceremony, now come up." After speaking, he controlled the magic weapon and lowered it to a certain height, and then used his mana to send out a gust of wind, and all the Lin family disciples felt that their bodies were light, their eyes were flowering, and when they opened their eyes again, they had already arrived on the dragon's tooth flying boat.
Everyone was shocked by Lin Zhengyi's methods, and their hearts were even more yearning and fanatical about cultivating immortals. Although Lin Zhenxi had seen a lot of immortal methods in his previous life, he would be amazed every time he saw it, the monk was really amazing, changing the heavens and the earth, moving mountains and seas, human beings could have such power!
After everyone sat down, Lin Zhengyi released a protective shield to prevent the wind from hurting people after flying, so he urged the magic weapon and flew towards the Yinghe River.
Everyone was very restrained, although they liked this dragon tooth flying boat very much, but they didn't dare to touch it everywhere, for fear that Lin Zhengyi would be dissatisfied, so they just sat quietly in place and experienced the fun of flying in the air.
After a while, they arrived at their destination, and Lin Zhengyi sent everyone off the flying boat with another gust of wind.
He led everyone to an altar, and in front of the altar, the Liu family and other forces arrived.
"Hmph, what's the matter? With Dansheng as a backer, the Lin family is becoming more and more capable, let everyone wait for one of you." Before he could get closer, he heard a strange voice coming.
"Heh, what's the matter, what's the matter, what can you do to me?" Lin Zhengyi was young after all, and he didn't care about the feelings of others at all, and blurted out the words of rebuttal.
"You!" The other party, that is, Liu Yuming, the leader of the Liu family, was furious, and he yelled: "Lin Zhengyi, don't deceive people too much!"
The junior of the Lin family only felt that the eardrum was shaken and painful, and there was a roar. Although Lin Zhenxi's body was much better than that of others, she also felt a little unbearable, she had a pale face, and said in her heart: "It's so strong! Is this the ability of the Yuanying Great God? ”
Lin Zhengyi frowned, casually arranged an enchantment to block Liu Yuming's vocal attack, and said dissatisfiedly: "How old is it, you are ashamed to be angry about a little thing, and you are not ashamed to do it to juniors?"
Liu Yuming's face turned red, and he couldn't find the words to refute it, and his whole person trembled.
At this time, someone on the side was a peacemaker: "Okay, okay, don't make noise in front of the juniors, anyway, everyone is here, and the auspicious time is almost here, so it's important to prepare for the opening ceremony." ”
The so-called spiritualization ceremony is a ritual performed when testing qualifications and selecting fluorescent spirits when entering the Glowing River.
The initiation ceremony has existed in ancient times, and the power of the Mahayana period has opened the soul for the descendants of future generations, using their own exercises and cherished materials to baptize the body of the monk, and a set of rituals can enhance the affinity between the monk and the spirit of fluorescence.
To this day, the materials required for the spiritual ceremony have long been extinct, and the masters of the Mahayana period are even more reluctant to consume their own spiritual power, and the spiritual opening has become a blessing from the elders to the younger generations, and the people of the mountain city still abide by this tradition.
Every year, the opening ceremony is presided over by the Lin family, the Liu family, the Daze martial arts, the Qingyang faction and the Black Song faction in turn, and this year it is the turn of the Liu family.
Liu Yuming obviously didn't want to give up, but he didn't want to lose face in front of the juniors, he took a hard breath, stared at Lin Zhengyi viciously, and his divine sense transmitted: "Lin Zhengyi, you are very good, let's see!"
Lin Zhengyi returned unconcernedly: "Okay, I'm afraid of you." ”
Liu Yuming was angry again, he forcibly swallowed this breath, walked to the altar, used his spiritual power to expand his voice, said a few words, and began the ceremony.
In her previous life, Lin Zhenxi had experienced an enlightenment, but this time she still acted seriously according to the ritual, she thought, this is a different enlightenment, and her future will be different from her previous life.
According to the ritual, first all the monks bowed to the sky, then Liu Yuming took the water of the Yinghe River and sprinkled it on the crowd, indicating that this was to remove filth, and finally lined up to test the qualifications.
When it came to the last link, everyone was nervous, hoping that they could have a good qualification and glorify their ancestors in the future.
Lin Zhenxi is also looking forward to it, and he doesn't know what kind of results he can achieve after refining his body for three years.
She walked to Lin Changsheng's side and said, "Brother Lin, let's line up together." ”
"Good. Lin Changsheng had a good impression of this kind little girl, and the two walked to the middle of the team together.
The test started at Liu's house, and I saw young boys and girls walking up nervously, trembling and stretching out their hands to the spirit ball, or dancing excitedly, or hanging their heads, and some of them who had poor endurance cried.
Seeing such a situation, Lin Changsheng was also a little nervous, and he couldn't help but say, "There are so few people who are qualified to cultivate, I, if I can't cultivate, what will my mother do?"
Lin Zhenxi comforted: "No, you will definitely be able to cultivate, even if your qualifications are poor, as long as you persist, your strength will eventually become stronger, I believe you can do it." ”
"Yes, as long as I keep going, I will definitely get stronger. Lin Changsheng was encouraged and reinvigorated.
Lin Zhenxi couldn't help but think that in his previous life, it was Lin Changsheng's insistence that he applied what he had learned, but in this life, he encouraged the other party to persevere and strengthen his beliefs, which really couldn't tell whether Lin Changsheng changed Lin Zhenxi, or Lin Zhenxi changed Lin Changsheng.
Is this cause and effect? Lin Zhenxi secretly said that in her previous life, Lin Changsheng helped herself, this is the cause, and now she is helping the other party, this is the effect. Immortal cultivators must not underestimate cause and effect.
In order to maintain balance, the way of heaven uses cause and effect as a means. If you kill someone, you will be tainted with evil causes, and it will naturally produce evil consequences, and the relatives and friends of the person who was killed will come to take revenge, so let it be.
When you go to a sect to cultivate, the sect provides you with resources, cultivates you, and when you achieve something in cultivation, you naturally have to give back to the sect, either to support the sect when it is in trouble, or to return resources to the sect.
This is cause and effect, if everyone is selfish, does not talk about cause and effect, and inherits the Tao of others but is unwilling to pass it on, the Dao system of cultivating immortals would have been cut off a long time ago, if they were to kill innocents indiscriminately, and the junior of cultivating immortals would die before they grew up, how would the cultivation realm develop?
It seems that cultivating immortals still has to conform to the way of heaven and pay attention to cause and effect. It's like a demon cultivator who is unscrupulous, and when it comes to the tribulation, it is still in ashes, the cycle of cause and effect, and the retribution is unpleasant.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhenxi's state of mind has made a breakthrough, and the state of mind that has been stuck in the qi refining period for a long time has finally reached the foundation building period, and now, she has a deeper understanding of immortal cultivation.
Lin Zhenxi was overjoyed, it seems that there will be no bottleneck in his cultivation in the future until the foundation building period.
Soon it will be Lin Zhenxi's turn, she pressed the ecstasy in her heart, took a deep breath, and stretched out her hand to put it on the spirit ball.
Soon you will know how much you can improve your qualifications after three years of body refining.
