The heavens: pushing across all realms

In the wooden house, Taoist priest Qianhe explained the causes and consequences of the great changes in Maoshan.

After hearing this, Taoist Priest Simu became furious.

"The Tianshi Mansion bullies people too much. Our Maoshan provokes him. He wants to destroy our Maoshan Taoism? Have you seen our senior brothers Wen and Qin from the plague department?"

Taoist Master Qianhe shook his head and said: "I don't know. At that time, Senior Brother Qian pulled me to escape. As we went down the mountain, people from Longhu Mountain were chasing us everywhere. There were even many Foundation Establishment monks who took action."

"On the way, I only met Junior Brother Momadi from the Poxin Division, and none of the other disciples. But I guess it won't end well, alas."

The four-eyed Taoist Priest had tears in his eyes, his eyes were red, and he clenched his fists: "These beasts at Longhu Mountain, these bastards from the Zhang family!"

"If I don't avenge this revenge, I will have wasted my time studying in Maoshan!"

Master Yixiu couldn't help frowning and asked: "Longhu Mountain and Maoshan are both one of the Three Mountain Talisman Sects. Why do they do this? What is their purpose?"

Upon hearing this, Taoist Priest Four Eyes couldn't help but look at Taoist Priest Qianhe and Feng Ji.

Taoist priest Qianhe shook his head: "I don't know about this either. Their sudden attack was really beyond our expectations, so they fell into a passive position all of a sudden. Everyone up and down Maoshan Mountain was caught off guard."

Feng Ji said: "I have heard some rumors."

Taoist Priest Four Eyes and Master Yixiu couldn't help but look at Feng Ji. They didn't pay much attention to this young junior disciple.

But then Feng Ji suddenly spoke, which surprised them.

Things that even Taoist Master Qianhe didn't know, Feng Ji, a disciple who later joined the Maoshan sect, actually knew some secrets?

Taoist Master Simu asked quickly: "Junior Brother Feng, what did you hear?"

Feng Ji pondered and said: "After I joined Maoshan, I also asked Senior Brother Lin about the situation in Maoshan. During this period, I heard a lot of news. The Longhu Mountain was not just targeting the Maoshan sect. Basically, all the major sects in the south were involved. was affected."

"Except for a few sects that voluntarily surrendered and were sent to the Paradise of Cave Heaven, other sects that dared to resist were brutally destroyed."

"Senior Brother Lin and I analyzed that Longhu Mountain's move is probably for the sake of the paradise of the various sects!"

As soon as these words came out, Taoist Priest Shimu and Master Yixiu were both stunned.

Taoist Master Simu asked in surprise: "Dongtian Paradise? Don't they have a Dongtian Paradise in Longhu Mountain? Why are they robbing other people's Dongtian?"

Feng Ji analyzed: "Brother Simu, don't you know that Taoist priests in the world who want to enter the Cave Heaven Paradise to practice must obtain permission from Longhu Mountain to be recognized by the Taoist sect."

"Even Maoshan disciples must obtain the teachings before they can enter the cave to practice. What do you think is the reason for this?"

Hearing this, Taoist Master Simu couldn't help but ponder: "I heard Master say that the essence of teaching is to restrict more people from practicing Taoism."

"The spiritual energy is exhausted. The spiritual energy in the world can only support everyone's cultivation until the Qi refining is complete, and it cannot make any progress."

"Only by entering the Cave Heaven Paradise can one break through the foundation. However, if there are no restrictions and a steady stream of people enter the Cave Heaven Paradise, then one day the spiritual energy in the Cave Heaven will also fail, and it will eventually become an ordinary world like the mortal world."

"For the seniors who have become immortals and ancestors, such a result is naturally unacceptable, so the term "conferring" came into being.

"The only people in the world who are qualified to teach urns are Longhu Mountain in the south and Quanzhen Dao in the north."

"However, each major sect's own cave heaven paradise requires a urn from Longhu Mountain to enter. Everyone has long been dissatisfied."

"However, in the past, all the sects had to go to Longhu Mountain to confer burials. As long as they submitted their names, the conferment would basically be successful, so no one said much."

"But since I conferred it, I heard that it has become more and more difficult for subsequent disciples to confer it. The conditions for outside conferring in Longhu Mountain have also become more and more stringent. Not only are there limits on quotas every year, there are also some water and land methods. Yes, places will be allocated based on ranking."

"As a result, many sects will naturally secretly teach the disciples secretly and let their disciples enter their own caves to practice."

"Is it because of this that Longhu Mountain began to gather the Cave Heaven Paradise of the Southern Taoist Gate?"

After Taoist Master Four Eyes finished speaking, he came up with a guessed conclusion.

Feng Ji shook his head slightly: "Then there is no need to destroy the sect's orthodoxy, right?"

At this time, Master Yixiu suddenly said: "Amitabha, I have heard about some secrets of northern Buddhism."

Everyone quickly looked at Master Ikkyu. For everyone, Master Ikkyu was a master of Buddhism and must know some Buddhist secrets.

Taoist Master Simu couldn't help but said: "I forgot even if I told you. It seems that here in the north, Buddhism is also aggressively attacking Taoism. Quanzhen Taoism seems to have been suppressed to the point where there is no place for survival, and the caves of various Taoist sects have also been taken over by Buddhism. went."

"Longhu Mountain took over the Daomen Cave in the south, and Buddhism took over the Daomen Cave in the north. Could this be a coincidence?" Feng Ji said immediately.

Master Yixiu shook his head: "It's not a coincidence. I don't know the purpose of Longhu Mountain, but here in Northern Buddhism, I know some inside stories."

"I heard that Buddhism's unification of the Northern Cave Heaven is actually to create a paradise in the Western Heaven."

When everyone heard this, they all looked shocked.

"Western Paradise?"

"What world is that?"

Master Yixiu said in a deep voice: "Do you know the origin of the Cave Heaven Paradise?"

This sentence stopped everyone.

Even Feng Ji was also interested. He had never thought about the origin of the Cave Heaven Paradise.

Taoist Priest Four Eyes asked: "Didn't the Paradise of Cave Heaven exist since ancient times?"

Taoist Master Qianhe couldn't help but said: "Yes, I have never heard of the origin of Dongtian Paradise. It is said that after the founders of each sect found Dongtian Paradise, they began to practice in Dongtian Paradise and then established sects."

Master Yixiu shook his head and said: "Dongtian Paradise does exist innately, but more Dongtian Paradise is actually created by humans."

"Made?"

Everyone was shocked again.

"How to make it?" Feng Ji couldn't help asking.

Master Yixiu did not answer this question immediately, but said: "Do you know how the realm of cultivation is divided?"

Taoist Master Simu said without hesitation: "Monk, what do you have to test against us? Our Taoist practice consists of four processes: refining Qi to transform, refining Qi to transform into Spirit, refining Spirit to return to void, and refining void to combine with Dao. To break it down, let’s not talk about Qi refining. God refining can be divided into foundation building, golden elixir, and Yuanying.”

"Simu, do you know where the Queen of Nascent Soul is?" Master Yixiu said with a smile.

"After? After that is the Void Refining Realm." Taoist Master Simu said matter-of-factly.

Master Yixiu smiled and said: "Can you please explain in detail how the realm of refining the void is divided?"

As soon as these words came out, Taoist Priest Simu was stunned on the spot.

He said nonchalantly: "This... I have never heard of anyone reaching the realm of refining the void."

"There are no more now, but in ancient times, there were many people there."

"I have read a classic. It is recorded in the classic that in the era when the spiritual energy was not exhausted, powerful Void Refiners would occasionally appear."

"In that era, there were several levels of masters in cultivating the void."

Master Ikkyu said slowly.

Taoist priest Qianhe couldn't help but ask: "Which realms are there?"

"The three realms of transforming into gods, entering the void, and entering the void!" Master Yixiu said slowly.

Everyone looked at each other, not understanding the meaning.

Master Yixiu said: "The classics record that among the three realms of refining the void, the cave realm actually refers to the cave sky!"

"When a monk reaches this level, he can open his own cave and make it his own place of residence."

"In such a cave, there is a set of laws that are different from those in the mortal world."

"So the caves of the major sects in the world are not necessarily formed innately. Some of them are caves left by the predecessors."

After he said this, everyone couldn't help but be shocked.

"Using one's own efforts to open up a paradise of heaven and earth? This... what kind of cultivation level should be achieved?"

"There are laws in the cave. Doesn't it mean that the monks in that realm have mastered the power of certain laws?"

Taoist Priest Four Eyes exclaimed.

That kind of state is really unimaginable for them in the Dharma-ending era.

Today's monks find it difficult to even build a foundation, and they have to go to the Cave Heaven Paradise to build a foundation.

However, the ancient monks were actually able to open up the paradise of cave heaven with their own efforts.

Such a gap is so different that it is unimaginable.

Feng Ji couldn't help but feel fascinated after hearing this, and secretly thought that if he reached the realm of cave, could he directly build the cave with his own hands and connect all his lovers and children from all worlds to the blessed land of cave?

This thought flashed through his mind, and he marveled at the horror of monks in the realm of refining the void.

In this current era, I'm afraid no one can reach that level.

His thoughts changed and he asked: "Master Yixiu, what is Buddhism doing with these caves?"

Master Yixiu looked at Feng Ji and said: "Forefathers were able to open up caves, but Buddhist masters cannot. They can only find existing caves and find ways to integrate them to form a small world independent of this world."

"I guess that Longhu Mountain's attempt to forcefully occupy the Cave Heaven Paradise of various sects may have the same purpose."

Taoist priest Qianhe frowned and couldn't help but said: "Why did they spend so much effort to create an independent world?"

Master Yixiu shook his head: "I don't know this old man. Maybe they sensed something."

Everyone also started to speculate, but no one could find a reason.

Only Feng Ji's eyes darkened slightly, and he had some vague guesses.

The spiritual energy of this world is constantly drying up, and the Qing Dynasty is now considered the last feudal society.

Later, when the Western world invaded and science developed, where would there be a place for Shinto monks to survive?

I'm afraid that the actions of Taoism and Buddhism are related to this.

Although he didn't guess 10%, he was close to 10%.

Taoist Priest Four Eyes frowned: "What should we do now? Longhu Mountain is huge and they attacked our Maoshan Mountain. How should we change the situation now?"

Taoist Master Qianhe said quickly: "Junior Brother Feng and the others have found another cave. That cave has not been taken away by Longhu Mountain. What we mean is to call on other fellow disciples to rebuild based on this cave." Maoshan!”

Hearing this, Taoist Priest Four Eyes quickly looked at Feng Ji and said, "Junior Brother Feng, are you serious about this?"

Feng Ji thought for a while and said truthfully: "I dare not hide it from my two senior brothers. In fact, that cave does exist, but... we haven't been able to find it yet."

Taoist priest Qianhe was stunned and couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you say you found it?"

"We can only confirm the approximate location. I came out to see you this time, senior brother, because I want to borrow your Taisui Department's formation experience to see if I can find that location."

Only then did Taoist Master Qianhe understand why Feng Ji came all the way to the capital to find him.

He thought for a while and said: "I have done some research on the space magic circle. After solving the current matter, I will go back with you to investigate carefully."

After hearing this, Taoist Master Simu immediately said: "I will go back with you!"

After that, he turned to look at Master Yixiu and said: "Monk, you can't stand the tyranny of Buddhism, so you are living in seclusion here with me. Why don't you come with me to find the Paradise of Cave Heaven? You and I have been trapped in Qi Refining Perfection for too long. , it’s time to find a chance to break through.”

Master Yixiu looked at Feng Ji and then at Taoist Master Qianhe.

Feng Ji knew that he was consulting his two opinions.

At that moment, Feng Ji said: "If we can get help from the master, our task of rebuilding Maoshan will be easier."

When Master Yixiu heard this, he couldn't help but clasping his hands together and chanting: "Amitabha, since this is the case, I will also go look for it with you."

Everyone was overjoyed and laughed.

At this moment, a thunderous sound suddenly came from outside.

Boom!

There was a loud roar of thunder, and then a heavy downpour fell.

Taoist priest Qianhe couldn't help but said: "The weather really changes at any time. By the way, senior brother, do you have any glutinous rice here? I can borrow some from you."

"Nuomi? What do you want this for?" Taoist Priest Four Eyes asked curiously.

"Oh, it's a long story. I did it to prevent corpse transformation..."

At that moment, Taoist Master Qianhe told Taoist Qian about his plan to cooperate with the Qing court.

After hearing this, Taoist Master Simu couldn't help but shake his head: "You are confused. The Qing court has already been finished. Are you still going to follow the path of the Qing court? Is that easy?"

"Well, I told you all about Senior Brother Qian, but he refused to listen to me. Not only that, he was almost caught by the people from Longhu Mountain again, and Senior Brother repeatedly violated the rules..."

Taoist priest Qianhe sighed, looking quite helpless.

While he was talking, there was a sudden knock on the door outside.

Taoist Priest Simu frowned and said, "Jia Le, go and have a look."

Jiale nodded and immediately ran to the door to look around.

But he saw Wu Shilang holding a child in a python robe, standing outside the door like a drowned rat.

The Wu Shilang's face was panicked and he was covered in blood.

"Help, help."

He was still banging on the door.

Jiale was shocked, opened the door, and asked curiously: "What's wrong with you? Where did this child come from?"

Wu Shilang pushed him away and rushed into the house. When he saw Taoist Feng Ji and Taoist Qianhe, he immediately smiled as if he had survived the disaster. He knelt down and cried to the sky: "Taoist, two Taoist priests, help me." Ah, zombies, there are zombies!”

As soon as these words came out, Feng Ji and Taoist Master Qianhe looked at each other and stood up immediately.

Taoist Master Qianhe looked solemnly and said, "Has the corpse in the copper coffin changed?"

Wu Shilang cried: "Yes, old Belle suddenly became a zombie. I fought to the death to send the little prince away. My people are all dead, all dead."

Feng Ji couldn't help but frown. He remembered that this plot happened at night. Why was it suddenly so far ahead of time?

Taoist Priest Four Eyes and Master Yixiu also stood up quickly.

"Come over and have a look."

"Jia Le, go copy the guy!"

"Yes, Master!"

Taoist Master Qianhe immediately said: "Be brave, go and help Jiale."

Feng Ji and Sima Yan had already strode out of the room, and the rain was blowing around them. However, both of them had magic protection, so they were not afraid of the rain.

Sima Yan said quickly: "Brother Feng, it's just a zombie that has just transformed into a corpse. Don't worry, right? There are so many of us."

Feng Ji shook his head. He remembered the plot of "Uncle Zombie". This zombie seemed to be ridiculously strong and not an ordinary zombie.

"Go over and have a look before we talk."

The two were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they had already rushed to the roadside.

But I saw that tents had been set up on the roadside, and some of the tents had not been completely set up.

There were bloodstains everywhere on the ground, but strangely, there were not a few bodies visible.

The carriage had long been torn apart and scattered aside, and the horses had been sucked dry of their blood.

Sima Yan pointed at the copper coffins scattered beside the carriage and exclaimed: "Brother Feng, look."

Feng Ji immediately walked over and saw arc vibrations on the surface of the coffin, and the surface of the golden copper coffin had a burnt color.

The inside of the copper coffin was already empty, and a strong evil spirit and corpse odor came from it.

The inside has been soaked by rain, and a layer of yellow corpse oil is stained inside, and large areas of burnt color are spread throughout the coffin.

Sima Yan was surprised and asked: "Where does this... burnt smell come from?"

Feng Ji raised his head and looked at the sky, with a gloomy look on his face, and said, "It was caused by a lightning strike."

Sima Yan was puzzled and couldn't help but ask: "Thunder and lightning are as strong as the sun, and they are the nemesis of all evil spirits in the world. How come this zombie was hit by thunder and lightning, but the evil spirit in the body was not dispelled, and instead the corpse turned into a zombie?"

Feng Ji also frowned, recalling the various methods of corpse refining recorded in the "Doubu Secret Code", but he never mentioned this situation.

"This zombie is very special. It is not afraid of thunder and lightning. I am afraid that many Taoist techniques may not be useful to it. Find it quickly!"

As soon as Feng Ji finished saying this, a figure suddenly swayed out of the forest.

Sima Yan turned around and saw a zombie wearing armor walking out of the forest.

Sima Yan was startled and said: "It's someone from the escort team! No, he has become a zombie!"

Feng Ji said in a deep voice: "This zombie is very poisonous, and it actually transformed the bodyguard so quickly."

While the two were talking, Taoist Master Qianhe, Master Ikkyu, and Taoist Master Four Eyes all came over one after another.

Several of them were Taoist masters. After taking a look at the situation, they all immediately made assumptions.

Taoist Priest Four Eyes had rich experience in removing corpses and immediately said: "Something's wrong. After a lightning strike, this corpse can still transform into a corpse. It absolutely shouldn't be."

Taoist Master Qianhe immediately frowned and asked, "Is it related to his identity?"

"What do you mean? He is a royal Baylor, and he is protected by the royal dragon's energy. Although he is dead, he still occupies part of the dragon's energy. Before he is buried, the dragon's energy will still remain in his body."

"You're saying that it's possible that the royal dragon energy in him had an unexpected reaction with Tianlei, causing the current changes?"

"It's very possible!" Master Yixiu nodded in agreement.

While several people were talking, suddenly there was a scream from the wooden house in the distance!

It’s Master Ikkyu’s female apprentice, Qingqing!

"Oops, not good!" Master Yixiu suddenly showed an anxious look, and hurried back to the wooden house in a flash.

They came out in such a hurry that a few disciples still stayed in the wooden house!
