Chapter 429: The world has changed, but the old friend is still there
"ah?"
Hu Yuan was shocked by the other party's words. He wanted to take over his body just one second ago, and now he wanted to take him as his disciple. Although he could tell that taking over his body was a joke, such a reversal was really beyond his expectations.
However, when he thought of the other party's unfathomable strength and his own talent, he felt confident.
He did not come forward, still keeping his distance, he asked cautiously: "You want to take me as your apprentice, why don't you introduce yourself?"
The man in white was naturally Jiang Changsheng. Facing Hu Yuan's question, he waved his whisk and pretended to be mysterious, saying, "I cannot tell you my name as your master. I am just a Taoist priest in the mortal world. I figured that we have a master-disciple relationship, so I came to find you."
Hearing this, Hu Yuan let down his guard. After all, there was nothing on him that was worth plotting against. The other party looked so young that he probably wouldn't be concerned about his health.
He immediately walked over, half-knelt down in front of Jiang Changsheng, clasped his fists and said, "Disciple Hu Yuan, hello to the Master!"
Although there were many fellow Taoists who contributed their Taoist methods in the Shenyou World, most of the methods he could access were inferior. He really needed a master who could teach him by words and deeds.
Jiang Changsheng waved his sleeves, turned around and said, "Disciple, why don't you take me to your home as a guest?"
Hu Yuan quickly got up and led the cow to keep up with him.
"Master, how strong are you?"
"It cannot be said. It cannot be said."
"Are you a celestial being?"
“Not really, but there is some connection.”
Hu Yuan asked and Jiang Changsheng answered, and the master and disciple walked further and further away on the country road.
…
Inside the Zixiao Palace, Jiang Changsheng withdrew his gaze and smiled with satisfaction.
Wang Chen in this life spent 100 million incense points. He is an absolute genius in cultivating immortals. This is more incense points than what Hua Jianxin spent on his reincarnation. However, Mu Lingluo later obtained the destiny of an immortal god, so in terms of overall expenditure, Wang Chen still cannot compare to him.
To teach Wang Chen, Jiang Changsheng naturally used his clone; it was impossible for him to use his real body to accompany him.
He closed his eyes and began to move the Kunlun Realm, distancing himself from the Shenwu Realm again, and also staying away from the void rift caused by the Great Thousand Killing Finger, to avoid being tracked down by the Shenwu Realm.
After struggling for a long time, Jiang Changsheng finally began to retreat and continue to comprehend the law of cause and effect.
The cause and effect of Wang Chen's current life is simple, and Jiang Changsheng can see his future at a glance, but with his intervention, Wang Chen's cause and effect began to change, and his future will also change.
The law of cause and effect is never fixed; it is always changing. There are always some forces that can influence cause and effect.
Although his attention was on the law of cause and effect, his cultivation was not delayed. The Taiyi Daoguo would autonomously absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and accumulate magical power. Moreover, he delved into the law of cause and effect because of the Dao Fa Ziran Gong's mental method.
As he mastered the Golden Elixir, he had more ideas.
Spring goes and autumn comes, time flies.
After Bai Qi recovered from his injuries, he went down to the mortal world. He came back in less than a month and began to practice martial arts seriously from then on.
Mu Lingluo often went out, and she began to prepare for the Peach Festival.
The trend of cultivating immortals in heaven has always been at its peak, with people trying to overcome tribulations almost every day. The same is true on earth. As more and more immortals emerged, the world of cultivating immortals was born to distinguish it from martial arts. It is not a truly independent world, but a circle separated from the secular world.
Not everyone can cultivate immortality, and most people still practice martial arts, which leads to the two forces competing against each other. As time goes by, various contradictions , which are difficult to reconcile.
The Heavenly Court advocates the immortal way and naturally leans towards it. They are also working hard to spread the Tao. More and more immortals and gods are coming down to the mortal world and going to various places in the Kunlun Realm to preach and lead mortal spirits into the immortal way. This has also led to various sects popping up like mushrooms after a rain.
The sun was rising in the east, shining through the cold, frosty and snowy forest and falling on the cliff.
Jiang Changsheng's clone was meditating on the edge of the cliff, the sunlight shining on him, as if covering him with a layer of colorful rays of light.
Hu Yuan, who was already twenty years old, flew over on his sword and looked at his master from afar. He felt dazed.
Every time he saw his master, he would be amazed. There was an indescribable aura about his master that made him yearn for it, and he also wanted to cultivate such a temperament.
This is an immortal!
Twenty-year-old Hu Yuan had a tall and straight figure. Although he was dressed in plain clothes, his spirit and energy were different from those of ordinary people, especially his eyes, which were bright and spirited.
He landed beside Jiang Changsheng and asked with a smile, "Master, why did you summon me here today?"
Ever since I brought my master home as a guest five years ago, he has been living in seclusion in the mountains and no longer sees anyone. However, my master's appearance also told the elders and folks in the village that he, Hu Yuan, was really practicing Taoism, and this incident also alarmed many nearby cities.
Jiang Changsheng did not open his eyes, and said nonchalantly: "For the past five years, I have only guided you through your confusion in cultivation, but have not yet truly taught you the Dao."
Hearing this, Hu Yuan's eyes lit up and he became excited.
"Master will teach you the great way of the golden elixir. If you achieve a minor level of success, you can pluck the stars and move the moon, and transcend yin and yang. If you achieve a major level of success, you can live as long as the heaven and earth, and be immortal. Are you willing to learn?"
"I am willing! But, Master, is it really that powerful?"
Hu Yuan nodded, like a chick pecking at rice.
Not to mention immortality, just the thought of picking stars and moving the moon was enough to make him fascinated.
That is definitely a method that only immortals can perform!
Jiang Changsheng did not answer, but began to talk about the Great Dao of the Golden Elixir. When Hu Yuan heard it, he immediately sat down and listened carefully. He had an outstanding talent for cultivating immortals, and he had a photographic memory. He could memorize it after hearing it once.
The more Hu Yuan listened, the more shocked he became. What a profound Taoist method!
Although it has not been practiced yet, it is much more sophisticated than the Taoist methods circulated in the Divine World.
The master must be from heaven and his status is not low!
The immortal path was born from the Taoist ancestor, and currently the Heavenly Palace is the main birthplace, so he would naturally think so.
As for the possibility that his master was the Taoist Patriarch, he didn't dare to think about it and felt it was impossible.
He was lucky enough to have such a powerful master, how could it be possible that the Taoist Master taught him personally?
In the world of Shenyou, he has witnessed the demeanor of too many geniuses. His talent is very strong, but it is only compared with ordinary cultivators.
The Golden Elixir Avenue comes with many spells, escape techniques, and magical powers, which are huge and complicated. Hu Yuan began to go up the mountain every day. After half a year, he moved directly to the mountains to practice Taoism with his master.
Time flies, and thirty years have passed.
Fifty-year-old Hu Yuan still retains the appearance of a twenty-year-old. His practice of the Golden Elixir has made rapid progress and he has already reached the state of transformation. This speed is incredible even to himself. He has never heard of such a speed of practice in his travels in the world of the gods.
He hasn't been down the mountain for thirty years.
This day.
Jiang Changsheng stood up from the cliff. Hu Yuan heard the noise and opened his eyes.
Looking at his master in the sunlight, Hu Yuan's heart trembled, and he had a vague feeling of uneasiness.
"Wang Chen, it's time for Master to leave. Your future path to becoming an immortal will depend on you."
Jiang Changsheng looked at the magnificent scenery of mountains and rivers in the sky and said softly, the cold fog surrounding the thousands of miles of mountains and forests is like a fairyland, with a kind of lonely and isolated beauty.
Hu Yuan quickly stood up and asked, "Master, where are you going? Can't you take your disciple with you?"
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, "You have your family, it's not so easy to give them up. The world is so big that you can't imagine it. If you go with me, when you come back next time, your old friends will be buried in the earth."
Hearing this, Hu Yuan was moved. He suddenly thought of his parents, brothers and sisters at home. Thirty years passed very quickly for him, but for ordinary people...
At this moment, he suddenly had a strong urge to go down the mountain and go home, but his master was about to leave, so he could only suppress the thought.
"Master, where should I go to find you in the future?" Hu Yuan asked, his eyes involuntarily becoming red.
In fact, Jiang Changsheng is the person who has been with him the longest, even longer than his family.
Jiang Changsheng waved his whisk, turned his head and said with a smile: "Silly disciple, it is not so easy to see your master. I hope that one day , your master can hear the name of Wang Chen resounding throughout the three realms."
"Before you leave, I will teach you another seventy-two transformations."
After saying that, he waved his right sleeve, and a gust of breeze blew towards Hu Yuan's face, and his consciousness suddenly became hazy.
I don’t know how much time has passed, maybe just a moment, or maybe several years.
Hu Yuan woke up suddenly and found himself still standing on the edge of the cliff, but his master was gone and many more memories appeared in his mind.
The Seventy-two Transformations of Earthly Fiends!
Hu Yuan took a deep breath and shouted a few times, but got no response from his master. He realized that his master had left long ago.
"Famous throughout the three realms..."
Hu Yuan murmured to himself, and he suddenly thought of an important event in his journey through the universe.
The Taoist Patriarch wants to be the leader of the earthly immortals!
If he could become the leader of the earthly immortals, would he be famous throughout the three realms?
Perhaps the master is also working hard to become the number one earthly immortal. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if he could compete with the master for the number one earthly immortal?
Thinking of this, Hu Yuan smiled, and the sadness of parting in his heart disappeared.
He leaped up, clouds gathered under his feet, and he flew down the mountain on the clouds.
…
Inside the Zixiao Palace.
Mu Lingluo walked into the hall and saw Bai Qi still practicing. She shook her head and laughed. She didn't expect that this guy could persist for so long.
She walked to the alchemy furnace, sat down, and prepared to make the elixir.
At this time, Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes.
When he opened his eyes, a hundred years had passed. For him, a hundred years of enlightenment was equivalent to drinking tea for half an hour. The speed of time was fully reflected in his practice.
Jiang Changsheng first calculated the strongest people in each range, and only looked towards the human world after making sure that there was no danger in the Kunlun Realm.
Hu Yuan had been his disciple for a hundred years. After his clone left seventy years ago, Hu Yuan returned to the village, but within a few years, his parents passed away. This made him very ashamed and he thought he had not fulfilled his filial piety.
After staying at home for five years, he left behind some methods of cultivating immortals and went out to explore the world of cultivating immortals alone.
Because of the immortal cultivation techniques he left behind, the Hu family prospered in the following decades and became the overlord of the area.
For more than sixty years, Hu Yuan has traveled around the world, looking for places with abundant spiritual energy. His cultivation has been increasing. Relying on the Golden Elixir Avenue and the Seventy-two Earthly Transformations, even those with a higher realm than him find it difficult to defeat him. If he cannot win, he can still run away.
This kid is starting to gain fame!
Jiang Changsheng began to reminisce about the past, and thought of the courtyard many years ago when he was teaching his disciples and Wang Chen was sweeping the floor beside him. Occasionally, he would stop and listen carefully to his stories and martial arts talks.
The world has changed so much, but the old friends are still here. How can this not be a blessing?
