Cultivation begins with separation

"What if I help you get a place as a teacher a hundred years later?"

"No, that's not my intention."

Yi Dong refused very straightforwardly.

A hundred years is still too long.

The Immortal Kingdom has been in Gantian for 1877 years this year. There are still 123 years left. The Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Kingdom will be replaced, and the name of the Immortal Kingdom will also be changed.

At the beginning, the Immortal Kingdom was a rotation of five emperors.

These five emperors do not refer to specific people, but the five strongest political parties in the Immortal Kingdom.

Thirty thousand years ago, the rotation of the Five Elements and Five Emperors became the rotation of the Eight Trigrams and Eight Emperors, and the ruling parties in the empire became eight.

After 123 years, the name of the Immortal Kingdom will probably not be "Gan".

Originally, Yi Dong had no official backing. Before the rotation of the Immortal Emperor, he sought a lowest-level organization in the Taoist sect. He didn't know whether he would be targeted by the new ruling party. It was really unnecessary.

In this world, as long as you don't commit crimes, you can live very freely without being an immortal official.

Not only immortal cultivators, but even mortals do not have to live in fear in this prosperous era.

In the past, Yi Dong thought that many mortals lived in dire straits.

But after understanding it, he found that this was not the case.

Just like ordinary mortals in the city, they are basically not harmed by gangsters and other messy people.

Whenever gangs appear, they will be suppressed by the government.

There is no soil for evil forces to survive in the city.

Similarly, there will be no too powerful aristocratic families in the city.

Aristocratic families are those with spiritual veins outside the city.

Those in the city are the strongest but ordinary immortal cultivation families.

Similarly, mortals in towns and villages are also safe.

In the fairyland, it is basically impossible for mortals in a village to disappear inexplicably.

There are mortal law enforcement immortal officials above many villages. If a person dies inexplicably, it is a major case that must be investigated thoroughly, and sometimes even immortal cultivators are dispatched.

It can be said that as he got to know more, Yi Dong found that the law enforcement in the fairyland was extremely strict, and the soil of the cult would not be allowed to be born.

As for colluding with local fairy officials, local noble families would bully the people.

That basically didn't happen.

First, many people were eyeing the position of the fairy officials, waiting for you to make a mistake.

There were eight ruling parties in the empire, and the composition of many fairy officials was extremely complicated, so it was very difficult for officials to protect each other.

As for local noble families oppressing the people, that was even less.

Because 30,000 years ago, the fairyland once issued a policy to nationalize the spiritual veins of many noble families.

At that time, the struggle between the noble families and the meritorious families was once fierce, and the fairy officials almost fell into a civil war.

In the end, under the compromise of both sides, the Five Elements and Five Emperors became the Eight Trigrams and Eight Emperors.

Now, on the surface, the power of the noble families and the meritorious families maintains harmony, but if a noble family does something out of the ordinary, many local fairy officials don't mind nationalizing the spiritual veins of the noble families.

In the fairyland, as long as you don't want to stir up trouble, life is still stable.

In this case, Yi Dong has no need to join the Taoist Academy.

Seeing Yi Dong was so tactless, Ding Yunxian let him leave.

Ding Yunxian was born in a powerful family and had seen countless geniuses. Yi Dong's performance in Qingzhu Daoyuan was just so-so compared to the people she had seen before.

So she did not offer higher conditions, because she thought Yi Dong was worth so much.

Yi Dong slowly left the courtyard where Ding Yunxian was.

"It seems that it's time to leave Qingzhu Daoyuan."

Yi Dong thought, although Ding Yunxian's face did not change, but after he rejected her proposal, even if she would not do anything, her attitude would affect many people, including Teacher Kong.

In this case, there was no need to stay.

After returning to his residence, Yi Dong took out the communication panel of the Daoyuan and sent Teacher Kong a message.

After waiting for a long time, perhaps after Teacher Kong contacted the dean, he replied to Yi Dong and said that he would help Yi Dong handle the resignation procedures tomorrow.

Yi Dong rode the green bull to leave Qingzhu Daoyuan.

Yi Dong looked at the green bull under him.

I vaguely feel that the aura of this blue bull has become more mysterious.

In the past three years, this blue bull has also read a lot of knowledge sorted out by Yi Dong, and even often wandered to the place where students were taking classes.

Because Yi Dong has not only helped Teacher Kong in the past three years, but was occasionally seconded by other teachers to help.

As Yi Dong's spiritual beast, this bull can be said to be able to walk around most places in the Taoist temple.

Many teachers will not avoid a bull when teaching private lessons.

In the impression of many people, the wisdom of spiritual beasts is not high.

The monsters in this world have never had any tricks to transform into humans.

After research by the Taoist temple, the "natural posture" of each race is the best posture for cultivation.

Moreover, in the fairy world, there are many races stronger than the human race, and the human race is not a Taoist body for cultivation.

The wisdom of ordinary spiritual beasts will only improve after years of training.

But the blue bull is obviously different.

This bull is not simple-minded. It is obviously very smart, but it behaves very stupidly in front of Yi Dong.

The blue ox may also know that Yi Dong knows it very well, because sometimes when it gets anxious, it blatantly reads the jade slips he sorted out in front of Yi Dong.

"This ox, won't learn the current method and change its own method to the current method?"

Yi Dong had a doubt in his heart.

The ox under him must have inherited the memory, because Yi Dong has seen him practice more than once in Zijin Mountain, and it seems to be different from the current practice.

However, even if Yi Dong knew that this cow had learned Jin Xiu's skills, he would pretend not to know.

After all, he had no intention to train this cow.

This cow left a large group of young green cows with its mother cow in Zijin Mountain, but none of them inherited its bloodline. Not to mention the emergence of auspicious beasts, they were not even spiritual beasts. It was obvious that they gave birth to a bunch of hybrid cows with inferior bloodlines.

It can be seen that this cow mostly dealt with what Yi Dong said.

In addition, Yi Dong felt that it was very troublesome to control the beast. Not only did he need to replenish spells from time to time, but he also needed to prepare various resources for the spiritual beast to cooperate with some special spells.

This was really troublesome, so this green cow was nominally his spiritual beast, but in fact it was a "free cow".

It was possible that this cow would run away at any time.

In this case, Yi Dong naturally did not want to train this cow that he did not know when it would become someone else's property.

The current situation is just right.

It does not matter whether this cow practices Jin Xiu's skills.

This cow will not ask Yi Dong for advice, and will consciously learn on its own, and will not waste his time and energy.

Yi Dong also pretended that the cow was a normal cow, and did not have any expectations for it, just treating it as a mount.

Walking into Bowang County.

Yi Dong always felt a sense of separation.

In the Taoist temple, all kinds of high-performance "high-tech" magic tools were everywhere.

But in the city, it was normal for spiritual beasts or even ordinary beasts to pull carts.

The speed of the blue cow could not be increased, and the streets were too crowded.

In the market, the supplies were very rich, and there were basically no ragged people on the streets. Whether ordinary people or immortals, they all looked well-dressed.

This situation may be because Bowang County is too poor, or perhaps the spiritual stones are too high-end.

Yi Dong presided over the production of many parts for spiritual stone flying cars and flying boats in the Taoist temple.

With his current knowledge, he can manually rub dozens of flying cars.

Building a flying boat is still difficult.

The main reason is that there are too many magic tools on the current flying boat, and basically an "artificial spirit" is needed to integrate them.

Yi Dong has not been exposed to the knowledge of artificial spirits.

Of course, if it was an old version of the flying boat that the ancient cultivators used, with some messy metaphysical formations and a few pieces of alloys with inexplicable high-end names, Yi Dong could easily make one.

But that kind of flying boat is not fast. It takes ten days or half a month to travel from one county to another, and it also consumes spiritual power to drive automatically. It is extremely rubbish and has no value even if it is made.

Just like in the past life, when airplanes were everywhere in the world, no one would get a hot air balloon to travel around.

Therefore, Yi Dong is now unable to make a means of transportation. If he wants to move long distances, he still has to take a flying boat in Bowang County.

Along the way, Yi Dong found many shops and not too many new versions of magic tools.

It was not until he arrived at the flying boat station that he saw the familiar "civilized scene".

Fortunately, many places in the cities of the empire have spiritual stone storage, just like banks.

In these places, Yi Dong can deposit and withdraw spiritual stones.

Otherwise, this world does not have a standard storage bag, and his travel is a problem.

However, what makes Yi Dong a little uncomfortable is that the spiritual stone card cannot be swiped.

The main reason is that the current Jin Xiu has too strong hands-on ability. If the spirit stones are turned into digital currency, the number of law enforcement personnel in the fairyland may increase by dozens of times.

Yi Dong took the spirit stones and bought a boat ticket at the flying boat station, and then waited quietly for the flying boat to take off.

Before leaving the Taoist temple, Yi Dong asked Kong Jiaoshi and several other teachers to write a letter of recommendation to visit another Taoist temple.

Yi Dong plans to check in at each Taoist temple one by one.

When he visits all the Taoist temples in Qingzhou, he should have a little reputation by then.

By then, he can visit the aristocratic families one by one.

Most of the Taoist temples are the knowledge of Jin Xiu.

The aristocratic families may have mostly retained the knowledge of ancient cultivators.

However, all kinds of knowledge are learned by analogy, and Yi Dong does not dislike it.

Moreover, there is generally little history about the establishment of the fairyland and before its establishment in the Taoist temple.

The more knowledge Yi Dong comes into contact with, the more curious he is about how the fairyland was established.

Was it established by the invaders of the fairyland or by the local strongmen?

Of course, he is not concerned about world peace.

I just want to know why the Immortal Kingdom is so wary of sects and cults.

Could it be that somewhere, the Immortal Kingdom is still fighting an unknown enemy?

Moreover, why does the Immortal Kingdom attach so much importance to mortals?

If you want to know about history, these aristocratic families should have kept it.

One hundred thousand years is a long time for mortals, but it is not very long for the immortal families.

In Yi Dong's previous life, there were many aristocratic families with a history of thousands of years or even longer. Many people don't know because their circles are too high.

Knowing history is useless now.

But what if he becomes a great Dao foundation or even a great Dao Jindan?

If he becomes a great Dao foundation or even a great Dao Jindan, and is used as cannon fodder by the Immortal Kingdom, then he will have to practice slowly and try to be an ordinary immortal cultivator.
