Volume 1 Shadow Chapter 7 Watching the Moon and Listening to the Training
In the past forty-eight days, Yue Chen had not made a single talisman, and all his energy was only focused on cultivating the talisman. As a result, the strange runes corresponding to the basic runes contained in the Taiqing Shenqi Immortal Book became clearer and clearer in his mind, and there were gradually signs of elusiveness. At the same time, Yue Chen pondered a lot of what he saw and heard, and began to compromise with reality from the angle and starting point of things. Everything seems to have a new understanding.
Since he was a child, Yue Chen has been educated by his parents as follows: first, "it is a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that cannot be avoided, and everything is not forced." These words are the most ordinary people in the world, and the deep-rooted idea of conforming to the destiny of heaven. For the lowest-level peasant family in Jiuzhou, it is even more determined that a person's destiny has been predestined by heaven when he is born, and he can only do what he wants. What kind of fighting for life and going against the sky, that is tantamount to nonsense.
Second, "Be a good person, don't do bad things". This is the nature of parents, and there will never be parents who want their children to be born bad people, or often do bad things! However, there is a problem with this sentence itself. Obviously, whether or not a good person is a good person has nothing to do with whether or not he does bad things. But this is precisely the manifestation of the inherent goodness of human nature, parents always want to pass on what they think is the right way to behave to their children, so that they can be a good person in the eyes of their parents.
The legendary "Three Migration Sects" and "Passing the Court Language" could not have happened in a small farm yard. As for the theory of good and evil, Dao and Demon, even if it is the current Yue Chen, I am afraid he has no concept. We will probably know how and how the righteous way is benevolent, and how the evil demons poison living beings. For Yue Chen, he had never seen the cruelty of the evil demons, but he had seen the cannibalism of the righteous path, and he had also seen the inexplicable strange things in the righteous path. For example, the strange man in red, who can only see the shadow man on his back, seems to be full of demon legends.
Yue Chen walked on the mountain road, walked towards the Moon Viewing Palace, and said in his heart: "Six years ago, I was just a child in a small farm yard, five years ago, I was just an ascetic in the small bamboo house at the foot of Tianlu Peak, and now, I have finally embarked on the immortal path in the eyes of the world. I don't have any ambitions, as long as I live a leisurely life, live a long life, and laugh proudly! Like these weird things, if you can know it, you can know it, and if you don't know it, you just don't know!"
Along the way, all the obstacles when I first came were gone, and as soon as I walked out of the path, one person yelled violently: "My ancestor and bride, you have finally come out!"
Yue Chen followed the prestige, and the person who roared was Ouyang Xiu who took him up the mountain, he looked at Yue Chen with a stunned face, rushed over and tore Yue Chen's face a few times, before slowly letting go, and asked mysteriously: "Senior Brother Yue, we are also acquainted, can you tell me, is there really any immortal treasure on the Tianqi platform?"
Yue Chen laughed and replied: "It's just an ancient jade bed, it's still connected to the mountain, if the senior brother is capable, he will move out!"
Ouyang Xiu sighed and said, "It seems that the old man didn't lie to us. ”
"What?"
Ouyang Xiu said: "Are you going to the Moon Viewing Palace, right? Come on, when you enter the mountain gate, there are still some things to explain to you, and it happens to be in the Moon Viewing Palace, let's go together." The two walked side by side towards the Moon Viewing Hall, and Ouyang Xiu continued: "My master said that there is an ancient jade bed connected to the Heavenly Killing Peak on the Tianqi Platform, which is the supreme treasure of the immortal family's cultivation. However, if a cultivator does not have a pure heart, he will often enter a kind of illusion realm, and gradually enter into demonic confusion. Then, on the contrary, people who come out of the Tiangong Platform for the first time will go to the Moon Viewing Palace, and they will mysteriously check some classical books.
It seems that the matter of the ancient jade bed is true. Otherwise, how could you enter the Guanqing Realm so quickly? To be honest, among our twenty-first generation disciples, there are only three people with this cultivation speed, and you are the third. However, you are different from him. As soon as the two of them entered the mountain gate, they were simmering with all kinds of treasured materials from heaven and earth. Soak your body in divine water every day, and there are endless elixirs all the time, and you can choose all kinds of magic weapons at will. You say, 'Who are you going to reason with this?'
Speaking of this, Ouyang Xiu suddenly asked, "Senior brother, do you know who these two are?"
"Senior Brother Chu Yunyu of the Yuqing lineage, Senior Brother Fu Qiyi of the Shangqing lineage!"
"Not bad, not bad!" Ouyang Xiu pondered for a moment and asked, "I heard that the demon beast spirit material you obtained last time was a gift from Senior Brother Chu, but is there such a thing?"
"Yes!"
"Then you know what that means, don't you?"
"For someone else, maybe it means something. But for me, it's just a windfall!"
Ouyang Xiu heard Yue Chen's reply, and sighed: "Uncle Haojing, you are worthy of being one of the eight people in the world, with a pair of golden eyes to see through everything in the world!" and said: "What you said is also true!"
As he spoke, Ouyang Xiu also seemed to find that his topic was a bit heavy, so he diverted the topic and said, "Recently, the Demon Sect has been making a lot of trouble! The first batch of disciples of the three major sects who went to track down the traces of the Demon Sect have already returned. Next, this matter will be presided over by the little old man Zilun, and it seems that the sect is going to move seriously. However, for the time being, it shouldn't be your turn to descend the mountain. ”
When he was about to arrive at the Moon Viewing Palace, Ouyang Xiu let out a strange cry again, grabbed Yue Chen and said, "I've forgotten all the way to business!" After a pause, he continued: "Senior Brother Yue, you have to remember these things clearly.
The first thing is that if you are a genuine sect disciple, you can receive one hundred Hyun Crystals and a bottle of second-grade elixir every month. The place to receive it is in the jade tripod in front of the Moon Viewing Palace. When the time comes, you just put your jade plaque inside, and what you need will come out naturally.
The second thing, because the Demon Sect and demons are making a lot of trouble, the entire Golden Court Mountain Range has been jointly banned by the elders of the three veins. In other words, even Eagle Valley can't go. From this, there is a third thing.
The third thing is that the disciples of Chengming Sect went down the mountain to practice, and they had to protect themselves and not be killed by demons. Moreover, the master also instructed that if you go down the mountain to look for spiritual materials, it is best to only go to the three places of Jilong Mountain, Changzai Mountain, and Tongbai Mountain. After all, in the territory of Xuanzhou, the demon sect demons also have to weigh it. ”
Yue Chen remembered them one by one in his heart, said thank you, and the two came to Yuding together. The jade tripod is about three zhang high, the bronze is the foot, the blood jade is the tripod, and the mouth of the tripod is in the shape of gossip. The front is engraved with two large black characters "Eight Scenes". This kind of ding, one for each of the three veins, has the same effect.
The entrance to the Ding that Ouyang Xiu said just now is the word "mouth" in the word "Jing". Yue Chen put his jade plate into it, only to see the blue light flashing slightly, and two things rolled out from the bottom of the word "Jing", which were the Hyun Jing and a spirit pill bottle that Ouyang Xiu said. Yue Chen put it away, and said in his heart: "It's okay! In the future, try to go down the mountain as little as possible, and cultivate more!"
Ouyang Xiu said again: "Senior Brother Yue, I won't go into this Moon Viewing Palace! I'll go to the old man's place first, and this time, I may have to go to Yuanzhou too!"
"Thank you, brother, brother!"
After saying goodbye to Ouyang Xiu, Yue Chen walked into the Moon Viewing Palace, and his goal was also very clear, that is, to find all kinds of absurd and weird stories. Because what he encountered could not be recorded in a serious book. Walk to a row of bookshelves, pick up an old book, and look at it. The speed of reading books at a glance and page by page is extremely fast. After reading three books in a row, I shook my head. When I turned the row of bookshelves, there were two people standing in the hallway, staring at me.
Yue Chen was shocked in his heart, and looked at the two old men who were standing on their shoulders, who seemed to be around sixty years old, and they were immortal. The old man in front of him was wearing a dark purple dragon python robe, nine feet long, with a straight body, three strands of dragon whiskers floating lightly, and his black hair was scattered behind his head. The old man in the back, with an ordinary face, no beard, a permanent smile on his cheeks, a brocade crown on his head, more than seven feet long, and a dark green robe. But the momentum was not suppressed by the old man in front, and it became a self-contained anger.
Yue Chen knew that there were seven elders in the Heavenly Killing Peak, but he had never seen any of them, and the two in front of him must be two of the seven, but he didn't know which two they were. Then he bowed down and said in a clear voice: "The juniors meet the two elders and real people!"
The purple-robed old man said "um" and said, "That's it! Don't worry about these small sections! Today, my junior brother and I are here because there are some things that I have to tell you in person." Listen up. ”
As soon as Yue Chen heard these words, he deduced that these two elders must be the first Haojing real person of the Taiqing lineage, and the other elder Hao Xian real person.
I only heard Hao Jing Zhenren say: "All the visions you see, there is no need to investigate them carefully. Because of this, the first true person and the inheritor of the talisman of each generation knew that it was not a secret, at least on the Heavenly Killing Peak. What you really have to do is to crack the thousand and one primeval runes, so that they don't disturb your mind and intimidate your spirit.
Now, your Dao is too low to feel anything, but when you go to the Divine Realm, you will often have an illusion, and the whole person will be in a kind of illusion all day long.
This illusion is empty at first, and if the mind is resolute, it can still be resisted, but when the illusion becomes real, it is truly immersive. Those who enter the illusion will eventually run out of oil and run out of lights due to unprovoked struggles, and they will die for the rest of their lives!"
Hao Xian Zhenren continued: "It is precisely because of this illusion that the ancestor has set a strict rule, and each generation must have a disciple to become the inheritor of the talisman, and it must be passed on from generation to generation. This is because this illusion was caused by Master Zu. Why is there nothing else on the heavenly platform except for those talismans? Presumably, you have also thought of it, it is indeed after the ancestor entered the Tiangong Terrace, he wanted to move all the treasures out so that they could be used by the disciples of the sect for cultivation.
However, the whole thing is here. Master Zu did not hesitate to spend cultivation to empty the Tiangong Terrace, but there were two things that could not be taken away, one was the ancient jade bed, and the other was those talismans. There were originally 3,600 of those talismans, but when the ancestor brought out all the refined talismans and golden talismans, these talismans were reduced to nothing on the Tianzhen platform.
Since then, every night when the time is ugly, a figure appears on the Tiangong platform, no matter how you look at it, you can see the back. At the same time, a kind of enchantment similar to the secret realm gradually appeared around the Tianqi Stage, and only those who cultivated in the Jindan Realm, or those who had cultivated the Xuanfa in the "Taiqing Shenqi Immortal Book", could rely on the Taiji seal to enter the Tianqi Terrace. Otherwise, no matter how advanced the people are, they will not be able to get even half a step closer.
At that time, Master Zu was almost cultivating to an immortal body, but in order to track down this strange thing, not only was his cultivation exhausted, but he also failed to find out anything.
In the end, the soul of the ancestor also entered the reality of the illusion, and when he was dying, he only left two sentences. The first sentence is 'Qinggang Peak', and the second sentence is 'Seven Evil Feathers'.
The first eight generations of my Taiqing lineage have spent their entire lives pursuing these two things. However, it wasn't until the eighth generation of patriarchs Ning Ke Zhenren that the matter was completely banned. Because there is no 'Qinggang Peak' in the world, and I don't know what the 'Seven Evil Feathers' are, it is not worth wasting the energy of all the people on this.
Now it seems that Master Zu set this rule completely out of selfishness and repentance. His old man's true wishes, we future generations have no way of knowing. ”
Hao Jing Zhenren continued: "These secrets are known to every elder of the Heavenly Killing Peak and the inheritor of the talisman. Of the twenty rune inheritors before you, thirteen of them chose to escape from the matter after knowing the truth. But, in fact, when you have seen those primeval talismans with your own eyes, your fate is already sealed. The life and death calamity of the inheritor of the talisman is that when the Divine Evolution Realm breaks through to the Holy Light Realm, no matter whether the cultivator wants to or not, he will automatically enter the illusion realm and never get out again.
When they were dying, they would keep chanting 'Qinggang Peak', but they were not like Master Zu, and they also said 'Seven Evil Xuanyu'. ”
Haoxian Zhenren continued to add: "According to the rules of the sect, you could have enjoyed the same treatment as Master Chu's nephew and Master Fu's nephew, but because you are the inheritor of the talisman, even the treatment of your own disciples can only enjoy one-fifth. I have discussed this matter with my senior brother, but after all, it is the Taiqing Gate Rules set by the ancestor himself, and we old men cannot change it without authorization.
I don't know, what do you think about this?"
Yue Chen bowed deeply and replied: "The younger generation took the liberty of speculating that the ancestor did not want the inheritor of the talisman to meditate in the Heavenly Killing Peak, but hoped that the heirs would go down the mountain to experience and trace the whereabouts of the 'Qinggeng Peak' and the 'Seven Evil Xuanyu'. ”
Haojing Zhenren let out an "oh" and asked, "Why do you think so?"
Yue Chen pondered for a moment and replied, "When I was at home, I experienced something similar!
The two elders glanced at each other, both nodded slightly, and Haoxian Zhenren stepped forward, handed over a low-level ruyi bag, and said, "Here, it is something left by the first twenty rune inheritors, and it may be of some use to you." You are now the first level of the Guanqing Realm, and in the old man's opinion, under the premise of using the jade bed, in less than half a year, you will be able to cultivate to the fourth level of the Guanqing Realm. At that time, it will not be too late to go down the mountain to experience.
What's more, recently, the people in the Shadow Moon Building have been making a lot of trouble, and if you go down the mountain rashly, it is easy to encounter accidents!"
Yue Chen respectfully took the Ruyi bag and said respectfully, "Thank you for the generous gift of the elders!"
The two big real people bowed slightly, turned around and floated away.
