Chapter 2 The Book of True Immortals
The True Immortal Dao Book was picked up by a tomb robber from an ancient tomb about forty or fifty years ago. The tomb robber who didn't know much about the goods wanted to sell this tattered True Immortal Dao Book to an antique dealer along with other artifacts, but in the process of selling the stolen goods, he met a rich boy named Fan Rui, Fan Rui was originally advocating Taoism, and was very interested in this kind of thing that tells the mystery of God and immortality, so he spent sixty taels of silver to buy this True Immortal Dao Book from the tomb robber.
At first, Fan Rui regarded this book as something for alchemy and immortal cultivation, but when he practiced the first volume of the sword technique, he unexpectedly became a master. In less than five years, Fan Rui has changed from a gentleman who has only practiced three-legged cat kung fu to a well-known "little sword fairy" in the rivers and lakes. There is no doubt that this has attracted the attention of martial arts people in the world.
At that time, Fan Rui himself had a poor foundation, no foundation, and had never learned any advanced martial arts, just practiced the sword technique, and became a first-class master in the rivers and lakes, plus the tomb robber inadvertently said that Fan Rui bought the True Immortal Dao Book from him, and it was suddenly red-eyed. For a while, countless people chased and killed Fan Rui, but Fan Rui didn't survive for a long time, and soon fell in a chase, and the True Immortal Dao Book also changed hands several times, until the five hidden sects at that time made a move, the True Immortal Dao Book had been torn into several copies in many robberies.
At that time, it was none other than Shen Banxia, the owner of the Xingchen Tower, who launched the Five Great Hidden Sects to seize the True Immortal Dao Book forty years ago. Shen Banxia believes that the True Immortal Dao Book is very likely to be something left by the legendary immortals in ancient times, it can prove that there really exists in the world to prove the Tao with martial arts, and to obtain the realm of flying immortals. As a result, the five hidden sects led by Xingchen Lou did not hesitate to make a move, and began to release words on the rivers and lakes to get the True Immortal Dao Book, and the result was the same, the five most powerful sects in the world joined forces, how could they not grab a True Immortal Dao Book?
However, at this time, there were only four volumes left of the five volumes of True Immortal Dao Books. The Heaven and Earth Secret was lost, and the remaining four volumes fell into the hands of the Five Great Hidden Sects, and the Five Great Hidden Sects studied this True Immortal Dao Book day and night from the head to the disciples, and gradually, they discovered a problem.
True immortal Taoist books, not easy to learn.
This book is written in very complex ancient characters and languages, and in many places the sentences do not even make sense. They speculated that Fan Rui was able to practice the Imperial Sword Technique because he was already obsessed with studying the mysteries of the gods from the ancient times, and he knew about these things. Moreover, Shen Banxia, the owner of the Xingchen Mansion at that time, put forward an idea, that is, Fan Rui actually did not really practice the sword technique, Fan Rui only practiced the sword technique according to his understanding of the ancient words and ancient sayings in the True Immortal Dao Book, and the real sword technique was much more powerful.
As a result, the way of studying the True Immortal Dao Book began to change. Countless people in the Five Great Hidden Sects have begun to learn ancient characters and ancient languages, and they have learned this True Immortal Dao Book according to their own understanding. Slowly, some people have practiced something, but their achievements are not obvious; there are still some people who have no effect no matter how they practice; and even some people have not advanced but retreated after practicing, and there are signs of going mad. As a result, the five hidden sects began to communicate frequently, and slowly summed up some experiences, but even the conclusions they came to later based on these exchanges were not guaranteed to be correct. Therefore, even with the key to a huge treasure trove, these world's most talented people still have no way to enter this treasure trove.
Until...... The emergence of Lin Mobai and Fu Xiayao's generation.
Lin Mobai and Lin Wangshu's father is the owner of Wanshi Island in Lingjingmen, named Lin Yuan. Although Lin Yuan is not the master of the Lingjing Gate, he is a transcendent figure in the Lingjing Gate, the Lin family has been in the Lingjing Gate for generations, and has always held the position of the core of the Lingjing Gate, Lin Yuan at that time was similar to the current ancient Kunlun. But unlike Gu Kunlun, Lin Yuan likes to accept apprentices very much, and there are hundreds of disciples under him, far more than other island masters at that time, Li Jingzhen and Fu Xiayao are all disciples of Lin Yuan. Therefore, in fact, in the past 20 years, most of the top characters in the world are from Lingjingmen Wanshi Island.
It's just that unlike geniuses such as Lin Mobai, Lin Wangshu, and Fu Xiayao, Li Jingzhen came to the Lingjing Gate. He was originally a little-known dart master in the rivers and lakes, after hearing the story of the five hidden sects, he desperately crossed the fog of the Black Mountain Islands with his life, and accidentally bumped into Wanshi Island.
Li Jingzhen was born with an ordinary physique, although his intelligence in martial arts surprised everyone, but his meridians were small and his bones were loose, and it was already God's reward to be able to train into a third-rate martial arts master, and it was almost impossible to become a generation of grandmasters. But after Li Jingzhen came to the Lingjing Gate, he saw that one after another teenage boys and girls were like divine help in martial arts, and he couldn't help but be ruthless.
He began to try some extreme methods, take some very dangerous drugs, in order to broaden his meridians, strengthen the physique, in the process Li Jingzhen suffered a lot, and several times on the verge of death, but in the end he survived, in the seventh year that Li Jingzhen came to the Lingjing Gate, he successfully worshiped Lin Yuan's door.
Li Jingzhen, who worshiped Lin Yuan's door, was ecstatic, he knew that his talent was not as good as others, so he practiced martial arts with all his might, Lin Yuan appreciated his hard-working and humble and respectful attitude, and began to pass on more and more things to him, and slowly, Li Jingzhen's martial arts also entered the hall and became a commendable master.
And another important character in the story, Fu Xiayao, is different, like most of the disciples, she is a talented girl, and soon after worshipping Lin Yuanmen, Lin Mobai and Lin Wangshu, who are of the same age, played together, and compared with Li Jingzhen, the road of the three of them to practice martial arts can be described as smooth, and they are also the best among the current disciples of the Lingjing Gate.
Finally, one day, when they were successful in their studies, these amazing characters made their own choices. Lin Mobai took Lin Yuan's letter of introduction to Xingchen Tower, although Lin Wangshu was a little younger, but Lin Wangshu when he was young still went to Xingchen Tower with Lin Mobai after several searches with his father. Li Jingzhen did not hesitate to choose the Fish Dragon Alliance. As for Fu Xiayao, she originally wanted to join Xingchen Tower, but after stepping on the rivers and lakes, she met a few friends, and these friends happened to be characters in the Dragon Head of the Fish and Dragon Alliance, so she was joined by the Dragon Head after a few thoughts.
In the first few years, there were no problems, and several people entered the Xingchen Tower and the Ichthyosaurus Alliance as the three pillars of the world, and they also participated in the study of the True Immortal Dao Book. At this time, more than ten years have passed since the True Immortal Daoist Book appeared, and everyone's research on this Daoist Book has also made some achievements, so Lin Mobai and others also have a good foundation for the research of the True Immortal Daoist Book.
Originally, this was a bland story, maybe Lin Mobai, Fu Xiayao and others would dedicate their lives to the study of the True Immortal Daoshu, maybe they would go out into the rivers and lakes to enjoy revenge, and some of them would become a generation of grandmasters, and then live this life plainly...... This insipidity lasted until one day, and Lin Mobai had a breakthrough in the study of the True Immortal Dao Book.
Lin Mobai put forward an idea, the True Immortal Dao Book is actually not an immortal method, nor is it a peerless martial art, but an auxiliary know-how, originally everyone regarded it as a kind of martial arts to practice it was wrong! Fan Rui practiced the Imperial Sword Technique as a kind of martial arts back then, but as a result, the martial arts reached a quasi-first-class realm, but he could no longer improve by half a point, and those who practiced the True Immortal Dao Book later also always felt that they had not learned the true meaning of the Dao Book. Their mistake lies in ignoring the exercises they originally practiced, and practicing the Taoist book as a new martial art, so that they will not be able to enter the realm or even regress in martial arts!
Lin Mobai experimented with herself, she carefully pondered the sword technique for more than half a year, and then added the method of the sword technique to it without giving up the swordsmanship she had learned, but she didn't expect the swordsmanship to be a thousand miles away, and the original set of swordsmanship that was not very advanced was actually improved and profound methods continued to appear in Lin Mobai's mind, and soon, Lin Mobai changed this set of swordsmanship and created a new set of shadowless swordsmanship, which shocked countless people who were studying the True Immortal Dao Book.
From that day on, the study of the True Immortal Daoist Book changed directions. Xingchen Tower, who was obsessed with research, didn't even have time to inform the Lingjing Sect, Tianwang Sect and other sects connected to the same qi, so he immediately started researching, and Shen Banxia, the owner of Xingchen Tower, who was already old at that time, personally poured tea for Lin Mobai, who was less than twenty years old, and asked her to preside over this research. Soon, a new "True Immortal Dao Book" was born, and Lin Mobai led the entire Xingchen Tower to rewrite the True Immortal Dao Book.
When the new Taoist book was held by Lin Mobai and walked out of the room, countless people in the Xingchen Tower cried with joy. But soon, disappointment swept over everyone.
Not all people and all martial arts are suitable for cultivating this new True Immortal Dao Book, it has extremely high requirements for the cooperation between the Dao Book and the martial arts itself and the talent of the practitioners; Admittedly, it is a very powerful cheat, powerful enough to easily create peerless masters, but ...... Xingchen Tower's dream of finding the Tao of martial arts through it was shattered.
That night, Lord Shen left. Lin Mobai raised his head and looked at the beams, but his eyes seemed to see the stars in the sky through the bricks and tiles on the roof: "The owner of the pillow building originally thought that the dream of Xingchen Tower for a hundred years could be completed in his own hands, but who would have thought that the end would be just an empty one." That night, Lord Shen originally wanted to pass on the position of Lord of Xingchen Mansion to me, but I didn't accept ......"
After the young Lin Mobai cracked the secret of the True Immortal Dao Book, he felt that he didn't want to be trapped in this deep mountain and old forest for the rest of his life. If even the most mysterious True Immortal Dao book in the world has no way to let the world prove the Tao with martial arts and soar in the day, then why use his short life to pursue this unattainable dream? Lin Mobai, who figured this out, took his younger brother Lin Wangshu and set foot on the rivers and lakes, and the brand-new True Immortal Dao Book was also left in the Xingchen Tower, and everyone could borrow it. But in the end, there were not many people who could practice one of the volumes to produce the effect, and slowly this Taoist book that had caused huge waves also accumulated dust in the Star Tower. And Shen Banxia also abandoned Xingchen Tower, ran away alone and disappeared into the world, and Xingchen Tower was passed on to Shen Banxia's eldest disciple Leng Dufeng, that is, Leng Qianqiu's father.
The second turning point in this story occurred in the encounter between Lin Mobai and Fu Xiayao. The two good sisters from their youth met again and were very happy, Lin Mobai did not hide her secrets, and did not hesitate to teach the sword trick to Fu Xiayao. With Lin Mobai's guidance, Fu Xiayao, who originally majored in swordsmanship, improved by leaps and bounds, and began to have a grandmaster-like level, and because Fu Xiayao loves to be in the limelight and likes to fight unevenly, soon, the reputation of "the world's first female swordsman" spread.
Later, Li Jingzhen found Fu Xiayao. Although the two went out of the same school and entered the Fish and Dragon League together, Fu Xiayao was much better than Li Jingzhen, Fu Xiayao was brought by his friends and directly joined the dragon head, but Li Jingzhen was responsible for some daily chores in the Fish and Dragon Alliance, and his martial arts had not even been practiced for a long time. He heard about Fu Xiayao's deeds, and also knew that Fu Xiayao's martial arts had suddenly skyrocketed, so he hoped that Fu Xiayao could help him, help himself for the sake of his peers, and share the secret of martial arts improvement with him, so that he could have a place in the Fish and Dragon Alliance, enter the dragon head as soon as possible, and become a world-famous person.
And Fu Xiayao couldn't help the begging of his fellow senior brother Li Jingzhen, and when he was in the Lingjing Gate, Li Jingzhen treated them very well, so Fu Xiayao ran to Lin Mobai, hoping that Lin Mobai could help Li Jingzhen. After thinking about it for a few times, Lin Mobai started with the Five Elements Palm that Li Jingzhen had practiced himself, and handed over the essence of the Heavenly Thunder Technique to Fu Xiayao, and then Fu Xiayao transferred it to Li Jingzhen. Originally, Lin Mobai didn't think that Li Jingzhen could really make the Heavenly Thunder Trick, but he didn't expect Li Jingzhen to create a miracle again, create five thunder palms, and begin to emerge in the Ichthyosaurus League, and his status has risen.
It was at this time that Li Xuefeng, the leader of the Fish and Dragon Alliance, who had been repeatedly cut by the emperor and embattled, noticed Li Jingjing.
