Longevity begins with marrying a wife

Ten days later.

The leader of Changling Temple is back.

Uncle Lingwu took Shen Ping and two Taoist boys out to greet him.

The master of Changling Temple has a childish face with crane hair, and is wearing a Taoist robe with a pattern of two rows of flying cranes. Behind him are the other disciples, who all look a little solemn.

Say a few words.

Chang Ling Temple Master’s eyes fell on Shen Ping, “You must be Ling Zhen’s disciple.”

Shen Ping hurriedly saluted and said, "Disciple Lingzhen has met the master."

Finished saluting.

He followed closely behind the temple master and his uncle.

Come to the Patriarch Hall.

The leader of Changling Temple first offered incense and kowtowed. After the worship, he sat on the Taishi chair and sighed: "Junior brother Lingwu, this time I took the disciples in the temple to Kyoto and got some bad news. I heard that the Great Master of Zhao made a speech to the emperor, saying There are too many Taoist temples in the world, which will affect the fortune of the dynasty, so starting from next year, every Taoist temple must obtain a document of conferment from the dynasty before it can continue to be passed down."

"If you want to get the document, you need to be in the top fifty in next year's Taoist temple competition. Our Changling Temple has been established for less than two hundred years. There are less than ten disciples in the temple, and the person with the highest Taoist practice has only been practicing for a hundred years. How can I get into the top fifty. "

"The Changling Temple has been passed down to me, but I want to cut it off. I am ashamed of my ancestor."

Uncle Lingwu frowned when he heard this, "This national master is simply a demon master. He actually proposed such advice. Aren't he afraid of the Taoist temples in the world?"

The leader of the Changling temple shook his head, "The strongest ones have not come forward, and it is useless for other Taoist temples to object. There must be something fishy in this matter. I am worried that even if I really enter the top fifty, I may not be able to obtain the salary award document. ...Sigh, if Zhao has such a national master, he is afraid of death and endless disasters."

Uncle Lingwu nodded, "I think we should discuss this matter with the ancestors."

The leader of Changling Temple hesitated and said: "Okay, after choosing the auspicious day of the zodiac, I will personally go to the underworld to discuss with the ancestor. However, at this juncture, Da Zhao is afraid that there will be a disturbance. Next, we need to improve the strength of the disciples in the temple as soon as possible and recruit New disciples, strengthen my foundation of Changling Concept."

"Leave this matter to my junior brother."

Uncle Lingwu said hurriedly: "Yes, senior brother, by the way, the newly acquired Lingzhen has not yet tested its Tao bones, so we have to trouble senior brother at night."

At night.

Shen Ping stood in front of the statue of the Patriarch.

As the leader of Changling Temple murmured something, the eyes of the Patriarch statue suddenly glowed, and then an invisible oppression enveloped Shen Ping.

It didn't take long.

The bone test is over.

"Lingzhen, your Tao bones belong to the Yin type, and you are obviously incapable of practicing the Five Elements Dharma. I will teach you the "Taiyin Talisman Sutra". Although the main talisman of this method does not belong to my Changling Taoism, if you can learn it successfully, I will make great achievements in spells in the future."

The white-haired and childlike viewer said slowly.

Shen Ping thanked him and asked: "Master, besides meditating every day and taking Waidan, are there any other ways to cultivate Taoism?"

The leader of Changling Temple laughed. He was not surprised at all. Most of the disciples who had just embarked on the path of spiritual cultivation were eager to acquire advanced Taoism. Unfortunately, there was no shortcut to spiritual cultivation.

"Lingzhen, since you are a scholar, you should know that there is no limit to learning and hard work. The same is true for cultivating Taoism. You need to take one step at a time and don't be impatient."

Shen Ping did not give up and came to Uncle Lingwu's room again. He did not forget that the master of the temple said that he would improve the strength of the disciples in the temple as soon as possible.

"What your master said is the right way. Of course, in addition to daily practice, there are indeed other ways to quickly improve the way in this world. One of them is to slay demons. It is said that saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, and every time it is eliminated A monster or ghost will bring blessings to the people of the world, and the dragon luck of the dynasty will protect you and speed up your practice; the second is the vitality pill. Different vitality pills have different effects. If you can find rare objects such as heavenly materials and earthly treasures, Then the effect of the refined vitality pill will be extremely high."

Uncle Lingwu muttered: "These two are known ways, and there is one that is rarer. It is said that there is a strange thing in this world called Blood Tai Sui. The blood in it contains all kinds of miracles. If you can If you get it, you will become a Taoist genius in a short period of time. You can practice Tao very quickly and there will be no bottlenecks in absorbing the energy of life."

Shen Ping couldn't help but mutter a few words, "Blood Tai Sui."

Snapped.

Uncle Lingwu's mind suddenly collapsed, "Lingzhen, even your uncle and the ancestor have never seen this kind of strange thing. You should stop thinking nonsense and just practice Taoism honestly."

"Also, don't think about slaying demons. Without the Taoist practices of a naturalized Taoist priest, your small body is not big enough for those monsters to fit between your teeth."

Shen Ping touched his head and said, "Yes, uncle, nephew, remember the teachings."

Next, he stayed at Changling Temple and practiced the "Taiyin Talisman Sutra" with great concentration. This method sounds very profound, but in fact the spells recorded in it are relatively basic, such as the Talisman Paper Man, the God-Inviting Curse, the Soul-Absorbing Curse, etc. Wait, the most powerful thing is the calming charm.

However, even basic spells require a lot of time to master. However, with Shen Ping's accomplishments in talismans, he completely mastered all the spells in just two months, and also created his own magic spells through the spells inside. Powerful spells such as the Five Elements Talisman and the Yin Yang Talisman.

It can be said.

Just half a year of practicing Taoism.

Although he has practiced Taoism for less than a year, his combat prowess is completely comparable to those of Taoist disciples who have practiced for decades. If they even fight against each other, with his true spirit and self-created spells, he is the one from Changlingguan who has a No senior brother who has practiced Taoism for more than a hundred years is no match for him.

The most important thing about Taoist magic power is the amplification of various methods, such as spells. The power of a Taoist who has just started practicing Taoism is very different from that of a Taoist who has been practicing for a hundred years.

But if you are not good at studying or have little experience in fighting, you may fall into other people's traps.

This is also the reason why many naturalized Taoist priests in Taoist temples do not dare to easily go to fight monsters and monsters.

Taoist temple backyard.

Changling Guanzhu and Uncle Lingwu looked at the calming spell cast by Shen Ping with slightly dumbfounded expressions. They did not expect that this disciple who had just started practicing for more than half a year would be so talented in spells.

The immobilization spell is the most difficult to master among many spells.

Even those Taoist disciples from famous mountains and rivers need at least twenty or thirty years of study before they can initially learn it.

"Senior brother, it seems that the talent of Lingzhen spells is really not low. "Taiyin Talisman Sutra" is one of the Taoist inheritance of Lingyin Temple. Although our Changling Temple belongs to a branch of Lingyin Temple, we cannot practice "Taiyin Talisman Sutra". All the spells in the Sutra, how about you take a trip and send the spirit to Lingyin Temple?"

The leader of Changling Temple shook his head, "Junior brother, I don't know, but a spell genius has also appeared in Lingyin Temple recently. If it were before, it would be okay for me to send Lingzhen away with such shame, but now I send him there, but it will harm him. "

"As for the subsequent spells, I will find a way. If it doesn't work, I will ask the Patriarch to come forward."

Enlightenment dawned.

There is competition among Taoist temples, especially after the advice of the Great Master Zhao, the competition between Taoist temples has become more intense, even if they belong to the same lineage.

"Some ghosts are suspected to have appeared in Shanyang County recently. The city god asked us to go over and help. You can take Lingzhen down the mountain to experience it."

"Yes, senior brother."

…

On the official road leading to Shanyang County.

Uncle Lingwu took Shen Ping on his way with the magic talisman and came to the Ten Mile Pavilion to rest for a while.

"Lingzhen, my uncle is going to test you. Since you have mastered many spells, do you know which spells are most effective in dealing with ghosts?"

Shen Ping replied without thinking: "The Five Elements Thunder Curse, but ordinary ghosts are also afraid of the fire curse. They will first trap them with the fire net spell, and then use the thunder curse to kill them. If they encounter stronger ghosts, they can use The immobilization spell assists.”

The corner of Lingwu Master's mouth twitched. This was indeed the best way to deal with it, but it was too extravagant. Not to mention the Immobilization Spell, the Fire Net Spell alone would consume most of his own mana, so he began to teach him earnestly.

However, he did not know that in terms of magic power, Shen Ping practiced the self-created "Tao Lun Jue", and his magic power was several times that of the same level, which meant that he was slightly inferior to those disciples who had been practicing for a long time in terms of absorbing vitality.

"Uncle Master, there is a city god in Shanyang County, how can we ask our Chang Lingguan to help?"

Shen Ping asked.

Uncle Lingwu pondered: "The ghost agents of the City God's Yin Division can handle some ordinary ghosts. If you encounter a Taoist ghost, you need help from the Taoist temple. As for a county town god, he needs to be in charge of the Yin Division, so he won't take action easily."

"Shanyang County is the area under the jurisdiction of Chang Ling Guan. When we encounter some troublesome situations, we will naturally seek help. This is also a trust in Chang Ling Guan."

There is another thing he didn't say, that is, with oil, water and incense, you can get a lot of money by solving the ghosts and monsters once, and the Changling Temple will also be worshiped by the people. The Shanyang County City God has a good relationship with the Changling Temple. When something goes smoothly, it will naturally be handed over to Chang Ling Guan.

Come to the county seat.

Shopkeeper Song had already brought a group of shopkeepers to greet them. With a few polite words, he led Shen Ping and Uncle Lingwu to a house.

"This house is frequently haunted, and several nearby residents have died."

Shen Ping was stunned. This house was clearly the house that Xi Lengyan and the others had rented before. Could it be a secret hand left behind by them?

Uncle Lingwu briefly inspected the house, and finally stood at the wellhead in the backyard, "This place is where Yin evil spirits gather, and there is a lot of resentment in the well. It seems that some ghosts have used tricks to raise and cultivate Yin evil spirits here. ghost."

"Lingzhen, stick the fire charm nearby and we'll come back in the evening."

same day.

The two of them settled in the mansion.

Lingwu saw that Shen Ping couldn't sit still, so he smiled and said: "The ghost's methods are not very powerful. With the fire talisman and the spell, I can easily solve it by myself. You are a half-way cultivator, and your worldly mind is still unfinished. Go out and play."

Shen Ping said hurriedly: "Thank you, uncle, for your understanding."

soon.

He left the house and went to the inn where he had stayed before, and sure enough he met the maid Chunxiang.

"Did you create the ghosts in Shanyang County?"

Shen Ping asked straight to the point.

Chunxiang nodded, "I did it, miss. Miss, she was taken away. Before leaving, she asked me to find you. She said that you were probably at the Changling Temple in Daliang Mountain near Shanyang County, so I used ghosts to attract the Changling Temple. Taoist priest from Lingguan, I didn’t expect you to come too, but it saved me a lot of effort.”

Shen Ping frowned, "Who captured Miss Xi and where?"

The maid Chunxiang was in a low mood, "You don't need to know the details. Even if I tell you, you can't help much. If the lady hadn't entrusted her, I would have gone with the lady long ago."

She carefully took out a piece of blood jade from her body and said, "This is the Blood Tai Sui. It is an extremely precious rare thing in the world. You should know that the young lady and I are ghosts. The reason why we left without saying goodbye was because there were forces chasing us. This is the purpose." Blood is too old."

"Now I give it to you. If you use it, you will become a Taoist genius. I hope you can avenge me and the lady in the future."

Shen Ping was stunned. He stared at the blood jade and sensed a familiar scent from it, origin blood, or blood similar to origin blood.

It turns out that Xue Tai Sui is like this.

"Master Shen, don't resist."

As the maid Chunxiang spoke, her nails suddenly became sharp, then she scratched the palm of Shen Ping's hand and placed the blood jade on it. The blood jade quickly blended into the blood.

Immediately afterwards, the blood all over Shen Ping's body became boiling and hot, and bursts of strangely hot energy poured into his Dao bones. In just a few breaths, the Dao bones transformed into golden Dao bones, with layers of special appearance appearing on the surface. lines, these lines seem to be traces of the great avenue of heaven and earth.

Sensing the increase in Shen Ping's aura, the maid Chunxiang showed a smile on her face, "Mr. Shen, my mission is completed. Now I have to go find the lady. You have to live well."

Wow.

Her figure disappeared from the spot.

Shen Ping came to his senses and asked hurriedly: "Chunxiang, where should I look for you."

"Buddha Mountain, Palace of Rebirth."

The sound echoed in my ears and slowly dissipated.

Shen Ping was silent for a moment. He didn't expect that he would get Xue Taisui from Chunxiang just after he learned about it. This was such a coincidence.

"Is it because of the cyan bracelet?"

He couldn't help but guess.

After leaving the inn and walking around the Chenghuang Temple a few times, he returned to the house and kept Chunxiang's matter deep in his heart.

night.

The miserable ghosts and ghosts kept echoing in the well. They tried to rush out of the well, but were burned to ashes by the fire talisman and could only retreat quickly.

Uncle Lingwu rushed directly into the well and cleaned out the gathered innocent souls. The process went very smoothly.

"Lingzhen, continue to arrange the fire charms and spells, and wait for a few more days. If no ghosts gather, the matter will be resolved."

"Yes, uncle."

Shen Ping's mind was no longer on this ghost at this time. After using the Blood Tai Sui, his Tao Bones transformed and he could faintly sense the laws of the Great Dao between heaven and earth. However, it was still difficult to understand and activate it, mainly because his own magic power and spirit were too weak. , but there is no limit to absorbing all kinds of vitality.

Except.

The source blood contained in Xue Tai Sui allowed him to finally activate the talent of strange beasts. This was the key. Only with these talents could he grow rapidly in this world.

"Buddha Mountain, Palace of Purity...Miss Xi, wait, no matter if it's because of the relationship between husband and wife, or the kindness of Blood Tai Sui, I won't let you die."

He knew that as long as Xi Lengyan did not hand over the bleeding Tai Sui, the forces arresting her would not harm her life.

The next morning.

While Uncle Lingwu was meditating to absorb the ray of purple energy from Dongsheng, Shen Ping found an excuse to sneak out, and then directly used his talent of strange beasts.

Whoosh.

In the blink of an eye, people have arrived at Daliang Mountain.

Sit down cross-legged.

Look up at the rising sun.

He activated Talent Devour.
