A shocking thing happened. As Jia Le's voice fell, Shi Jian used all his strength to gather lightning, but it just dissipated without a trace.
A pair of fleshy palms reached out to Jiale, and this time Jiale did not indulge him.
"go!"
With a light tap of his fingertips, a bolt of lightning fell and hit Shi Jian who was coming towards Jia Le.
boom!
Shi Jian flew backwards with a loud bang. As expected, the gap between the Spirit Transformation Realm and the Qi Refining Realm was immeasurable.
Outside the ancestral hall, everyone saw this scene with their mouths open, unable to recover for a long time. They couldn't believe it. The dignified King of Thunder and Lightning, the eldest senior brother of their Yin-Yang lineage, was taken down by Jia Le with just one finger. What was even more exaggerated was that Jia Le used the thunder method that Shi Jian was best at.
"Kunlun, take them down."
Upon hearing this, Kunlun walked straight towards Shi Jian. With one strike of thunder, Shi Jian's cultivation was completely destroyed by Jiale, and he fainted.
Shi Shaojian was so frightened that he was completely unable to fight back against Kunlun.
The mighty power dissipated, and Jiale looked at the people outside the ancestral hall.
"Shi Jian practices the Wood Stake Technique, but he does evil things. He not only absorbs the essence of spiritual wood, but also devours the essence of living people to improve his cultivation. We will capture him now. After returning to Maoshan, we will report to the mountain master and deal with him. Shi Shaojian is called Shi Jian's disciple, but he is actually Shi Jian's son. He is of the same lineage as his father, has harmed countless people, and is a lewd and evil person. His crimes are unforgivable. According to the rules of our Yin-Yang lineage, he will be executed on the spot. Kunlun!"
Kunlun understood Jiale's intention best. Without Jiale saying anything, he slapped Shi Shaojian on the top of his head. In front of Shi Shaojian's frightened gaze, there was a click, and he died.
Outside the ancestral hall, everyone couldn't help but shrink their eyes after seeing this scene.
Uncle Jiu looked at Jiale, who had a dignified face and acted decisively. At this moment, he seemed to have seen the grand scene after the rise of the Yin-Yang lineage. The impression that Jiale gave him now was not just that of a disciple who practiced quickly, but that he had transformed into a qualified lineage master.
"Lin Jiu from the Yin-Yang lineage, hello to the lineage master!"
Uncle Jiu bowed loudly, holding the pulse jade in both hands and presented it to Jiale.
After seeing this scene, the others were also suddenly enlightened. It was the Spirit Transformation Realm. Their Yin-Yang lineage had actually reached the Spirit Transformation Realm again. In other words, could they return to Maoshan?
At this moment, everyone was excited, even Shi Jian's supporters had tears in their eyes. God knew how much they wanted to return to Maoshan.
"The four eyes of the Yin and Yang lineage meet the lineage master!"
"The Yin and Yang lineage is here to greet the lineage master!"
"Qianhe of the Yin-Yang lineage, meeting the lineage master!"
"I am the partridge girl of the Yin-Yang lineage, and I am here to meet the leader of the lineage!"
…
The general trend was set, and Jiale did not shirk his responsibility. In a world where strength was respected, Jiale was the popular choice, so there was no need to play the trick of giving up Xuzhou three times. He walked straight to Uncle Jiu and took the pulse jade from his hand.
"Uncle Master, rest assured. The Yin-Yang lineage will surely rise and regain its reputation in the cultivation world."
Uncle Jiu's face was filled with excitement and he nodded vigorously. He believed what Jia Le said. If even Jia Le couldn't do it, then no one else in the cultivation world would be able to do it.
Looking at the disciples of the Yin-Yang lineage, there are about two hundred of them, including Uncle Jiu's generation and Jiale's generation. This is the foundation of the Yin-Yang lineage. Other branches may be able to be used, but after all, they are not as close as these people.
"After seven days, return to Mount Mao."
Everyone's eyes became even hotter when they heard this.
"Return to Maoshan!"
"Return to Maoshan!"
…
God knows how long it has been since these wandering disciples dreamed of returning to Mount Mao. But when they wake up, the reality is still cruel. How could their dreams come true like today?
As for Shi Jian, no one paid attention to him. Jia Le did not kill Shi Jian, but took him back to Maoshan and dealt with him after reporting to the mountain master. This shows that Jia Le was 100% confident in his words. When these disciples thought that Shi Jian actually devoured living people for cultivation, they felt a chill and were even more angry.
He disgraced the reputation of the Yin-Yang lineage and killed ordinary people without permission. He deserves death.
All the Yin-Yang disciples did not leave, and all stayed in Renjia Town, preparing to return to Maoshan with Jiale after seven days.
Inside the ancestral hall, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai looked at Jia Le anxiously. In the past few days, they really knew they were wrong and recited the Taoist scriptures with a sincere attitude. However, seeing that Jia Le and Jiu Shu still hadn't caught those ghosts, they became anxious. They were no longer afraid of any consequences for themselves, so what if they fell into the three lower realms? The most important thing was not to implicate Jiu Shu.
Jiale let them out because he saw that they had a good attitude.
"Brother, what should we do with those ghosts?"
After hearing what Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai said, Uncle Jiu also looked at Jia Le. When he saw that Jia Le was not in a hurry to catch the ghosts and felt that his own good karma was no longer being consumed, Uncle Jiu almost understood the situation.
Jiale always plans things out before taking action. There must be a reason for his calmness.
At this moment, a white figure floated down.
"Master, all 582 ghosts have been captured," the female ghost Xiaohong handed a gourd to Jiale under the astonished gaze of the crowd, and then shook her sleeves again, and a white ghost fell directly to the ground. Who else could it be but the culprit Xiaoli? But at this time, Xiaoli's face was miserable and her breath was weak, as if she had suffered a lot.
"Xiao Li!"
When Qiu Sheng and Wencai saw Xiaoli lying on the ground, they couldn't help but scream .
Jiale handed the ghost-binding gourd to Uncle Jiu, and turned to look at the female ghost Xiaoli on the ground, "How dare a mere ghost bewitching my Maoshan disciples, disrupting yin and yang, and causing disasters? You deserve to die."
After saying that, Jiale looked at Qiu Sheng and Wencai again.
"It all started here and it ends here, Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai, it's up to you to take action and enforce the sentence."
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were shocked when they heard this. They wanted to kill Xiao Li! Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai refused with all their hearts, and looked at Xiao Li with reluctance in their eyes.
Bang!
Jiale threw a peach wood sword in front of the two of them.
Qiu Sheng and Wencai couldn't help but shudder. They looked at each other, but neither of them was willing to pick up the peach wood sword on the ground.
"If you kill the female ghost, you can still be saved. After seven days, follow me and my uncle back to Maoshan. If you don't want to, you will stay in Yizhuang from now on."
Uncle Jiu suddenly raised his head and looked towards Jiale, feeling very sorry. He knew his apprentices too well. Qiu Sheng and Wencai were both foolishly kind-hearted people who had no ability to distinguish right from wrong. The female ghost Xiaoli deserved to die, no matter whether he or Jiale saw it. However, Qiu Sheng and Wencai were not so decisive, otherwise, things would not have been so unbearable.
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were actually somewhat happy when they heard Jia Le's words.
"Brother, we are not going back to Maoshan. We will stay at Yizhuang. Xiaoli is a good ghost. Please let her go."
There is no cure!
Jiale was disappointed. He naturally hoped that Qiu Sheng and Wencai would always have a kind heart, but kindness cannot be without distinguishing right from wrong. If there was no Xiaoli, there would be no later events. But until now, in the hearts of Qiu Sheng and Wencai, Xiaoli was innocent. This was no longer kindness, but Jiale's current temper. If it had happened in the past, he would have called them idiots.
"snort!"
With a cold snort, Xiao Li was scared to death. The chance had already been given to Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai. Since they insisted on doing so, then they would respect their choice. However, for them, it seemed like a good idea to stay in the charity cemetery in the future. Anyway, given their situations, it was basically impossible for them to make further progress. Staying in the charity cemetery would also allow them to enjoy the prosperity of the world without having to suffer the pain of practicing.
Jiale also saves himself from worrying about it as he doesn't have to make plans for them.
Not far from Renjia Town, there is a zombie forest, which was originally the place where a group of bandits were entrenched. After the bandits were destroyed, their corpses were left in the forest. There was a lot of miasma in the forest, and over time, they all turned into zombies. Among them there were even flying zombies. Every time there was a full moon, there would be a scene of thousands of corpses worshiping the moon. Passers-by also knew that the zombie forest was powerful, so they dared not approach it, let alone pass through it.
Therefore, this zombie forest has become a restricted area.
If it weren't for Shi Jian, Jia Le really wouldn't have remembered this place. However, there were flying zombies in the zombie forest. Even if he had remembered it before, Jia Le didn't have the ability to take it down. Now it's just right. He has now broken through the Spirit Transformation Realm and has the three great magical powers. Whether it's more than a thousand zombies or flying zombies, they can all be destroyed. The zombie forest has become a good place to gain experience.
Moreover, the flying zombie has existed for nearly a thousand years. The special mountain forest environment, coupled with the flying zombie's zombie aura, has caused a thousand-year-old coffin fungus to grow on its coffin. This thousand-year-old coffin fungus is a good thing, no worse than the thousand-year-old elixir that Jiale got from Dan Cuo. After getting it, he used the thousand-year-old elixir and the thousand-year-old coffin fungus as the main materials, and added some other spiritual medicines to refine a furnace of fourth-grade elixir, which will definitely be of great benefit to Uncle Jiu and Simu in breaking through the God Transformation Realm.
"Brother, why did you kill Xiaoli?"
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai looked at the frightened Xiao Li with anger on their faces. Fortunately, there was no resentment in their eyes, otherwise Jia Le would probably have beaten them to death in anger.
If he, who has been together for such a long time, is still not as good as Xiaoli, whom he has only known for a few days, then Qiu Sheng and Wencai are really outrageous.
"Uncle Master, please talk to them. I'm leaving first."
Jiale walked straight out of the charity cemetery, and Xiaohong, Kunlun and Baiyuan hurried to follow him.
After Jiale left, Uncle Jiu looked at Qiu Sheng and Wencai with a complicated look in his eyes. He naturally knew what the two would face after making such a choice. Although these two disciples were not suitable for practicing Taoism, Uncle Jiu had always been with them. But now it was time to make some choices.
Maoshan is not a charity cemetery, the rules are very strict and there is no room for negligence.
Not only Qiu Sheng and Wencai, but also the disciples of other junior brothers and sisters will not be brought to Maoshan if they do not meet the requirements.
Originally, given the relationship between Qiu Sheng, Wencai and Jia Le, there would be no problem in bringing them to Maoshan, but these two guys, alas, are hopeless.
"That female ghost violated the taboo of our Maoshan, causing a great disturbance in our Maoshan. Killing her ten times is not too much. You actually dare to question Jiale. Do you really think that your senior brother and I are not as good as a female ghost?"
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai's faces froze when they heard this, and they quickly shook their heads. In their hearts, of course, Uncle Jiu and Jia Le were more important.
Uncle Jiu couldn't bear to say anything more.
"From now on, Yizhuang will be handed over to you. This time back at Maoshan, I will also concentrate on cultivation. I am afraid that I will not have much time to go down the mountain in the future. The rules of Maoshan are strict. If you miss this opportunity, unless you can break through the Qi Refining Realm, it will be basically impossible to go to Maoshan again. In the future when I am not here, you must be cautious in everything and don't be so reckless."
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai were stunned when they heard this. Only then did they realize that the choice they had just made would affect their entire lives.
The master is leaving, the senior brother is leaving, and the uncle is leaving too, which means that they will all be separated from now on!
Originally, they thought that even if they stayed in the charity cemetery, they would be able to go to Maoshan in the future. After all, Uncle Jiu was there, and it was a good thing for a disciple to visit his master. However, they did not think about it. With so many cultivators in Maoshan, how many of them would take the initiative to go down the mountain? The reason was that Maoshan was more conducive to cultivation. Going down the mountain would be a waste of time and life unless it was something important.
"Master, we didn't know this was happening. You can't abandon us."
What a fool!
Everyone is responsible for their own choices. What's the point of regretting?
Zombie Forest.
Jiale glanced at Xiaohong and said, "You did a good job this time. Stay with me from now on."
Xiao Hong couldn't help but be overjoyed when she heard this, "Thank you, Master."
Xiaohong is a fierce ghost and has no chance of reincarnation. If Jiale does not take her in, she will only be a wandering ghost in the world. However, although Xiaohong has retained her sanity after becoming a fierce ghost, it is still a hidden danger. If she receives too much stimulation, she may turn into a murderous ghost and lose her sanity.
Moreover, Xiaohong is very talented. Ghost Soldier is not her upper limit. If conditions permit, she can break through to Ghost General, or even higher. Otherwise, she would not have attracted Peony Flower General in the first place.
I am qualified to follow Jiale.
It was late at night, with a bright moon hanging in the sky. It had been nearly ten days since the Ghost Festival. Although the full moon was no longer there, the timing was just right. Jia Le did not dare to be careless and come to trouble the zombies on a full moon day when the zombies were going crazy and overwhelmed with power. After all, he had a flying zombie. You know, according to the current saying in the cultivation world, a flying zombie was much stronger than a spirit transformation realm cultivator of the same level.
Jiale had just made a breakthrough and was proud of his three innate magical powers, so he just wanted to try out his skills.
As for the other small zombies, Kunlun and others are enough. After he has dealt with the flying zombies, they will just sweep away the fallen leaves in the breeze.
The zombie forest was filled with smoke and white at night, so it was hard to see the road ahead. However, this was not white fog, but miasma. The zombie forest was already humid, and after the birth of more than a thousand zombies, it was filled with yin energy, covering the sky and blocking the sun. Even the sunlight could not get in. Over time, the yin became stronger and the yang became weaker, and miasma arose.
These miasmas are all poisonous. The animals and insects in the forest are basically poisonous, and it is difficult for spiritual creatures to survive.
It has only been a thousand years. If it is delayed any longer, this place will become a desolate place. Not only this place, but also the area within a thousand miles will suffer. The current zombie forest can support the cultivation of more than a thousand zombies, and these zombies will not come out. If one day, the flying zombie is successful in cultivation and even becomes a zombie king, the people within a thousand miles or even farther will suffer and become food for the zombies.
This time, Jiale can be said to have gotten rid of a threat to the people.
Stepping into the zombie forest, Jiale and the others had all made great progress in their training, so they were naturally not afraid of the mere miasma.
With the Tongyou Divine Eye, seeing the Nine Netherworlds is not a problem at all, not to mention that it is just covered by miasma. Moreover, with the Tongyou Divine Eye, the corpse qi is clearly visible, so Jia Le easily found the location of the zombies.
In the center of the zombie forest.
More than a thousand zombies were arranged neatly in a circle surrounding a giant coffin. Feeling the breath of the coffin, Jiale was certain that the Zombie King was there.
Without hesitation, Jiale flew straight into the air.
The Qimen Bagua is opened.
The golden elixir in his body was spinning, and a purple light rose from it. At this moment, the Five Thunder Magical Ability was directly activated.
The five internal organs and five elements of divine thunder circulated, interacting with the external thunder energy, making the surrounding weather become violent. After a period of exploration, Jiale has basically mastered the means of using his own five internal organs' thunder power to draw on the power of heaven. It is definitely inferior to the heavenly calamity, but the origin of the thunder calamity, the mighty power of heaven, is also the most restraining for zombies, ghosts and the like.
There were dense thunderclouds over the Zombie Forest, which even blocked out the moonlight. A light drizzle fell. It was worth noting that the rain only fell in the Zombie Forest and could not be seen outside the Zombie Forest.
Thunder is the command of heaven. It can not only drive away thunder and lightning, but also pray for rain and clear weather, cure evil spirits, ward off locusts and plague, and refine the souls of the dead.
Jiale is now able to pray for rain on a small scale.
Raindrops fell in the zombie forest and on the zombie coffins. The atmosphere in the zombie forest became even more depressing. The thunder was still gathering, as if there were thunder dragons raging in the thunderclouds, roaring from time to time.
The thousands of zombies in the zombie forest seemed to feel threatened and began to make a commotion.
If a modern person were to do this, he would have to say something, whether good or bad.
"Fuck, the coffin lid can't hold it down anymore."
Innate magical power is indeed a must-have for fighting above one's level. At this time, the thunder method has been mastered, and Jia Le holds thunder in his hands. Not to mention the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, even the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm may not be able to withstand such divine thunder.
boom!
The moment the thunder took shape, without any hesitation or waiting, it directly blasted towards the flying zombie surrounded by thousands of corpses.
With a loud bang, the entire zombie forest suddenly lit up, and the flying zombie's coffin exploded. It was worthy of being a flying zombie. It actually reacted at the critical moment and fought back. However, this flying zombie was only in the late stage, and Jiale got the upper hand. With the power of thunder, it was not something it could easily block.
The most powerful feature of the flying zombie is its incredible speed. Often, before the monks can see the zombie disappear, the zombie's claws have already reached them. When the flying zombie sees the powerful thunder, it will try to dodge after resisting for a moment.
However, Jia Le had already prepared for this move. With the help of Qimen Bagua, Jia Le had already blocked all the escape routes of the flying zombie!
boom!
Several thunderbolts struck down, covering everyone indiscriminately. Fei Jiang wanted to abandon the thunder and capture the king directly and take down Jia Le, but facing the thunder in the sky, he was finally nailed to the ground.
Not only the flying zombie, but also the thousands of zombies around it were affected, and half of them were killed or injured.
However, this flying zombie had reached the late stage and had amazing defense, not much worse than the silver-armored corpse. It actually got up again and again under the bombardment of thunder and rushed towards Jiale.
Under the Qimen Bagua, Jiale was not panicked at all. Every time a flying zombie attacked Jiale, Jiale seemed to have controlled its route in advance and would directly fire a thunder.
At this moment, Jiale seemed to have found the joy of playing games. A mage fought against a warrior, and he was a control mage at that. The warrior couldn't even touch the corner of Jiale's clothes, and just endured the bombardment of thunder.
However, although mastering the Five Thunders is powerful, it also consumes a lot of energy. Jiale was enjoying the bombardment and the mana in his body was also being output crazily. But in just a short while, half of his mana was exhausted.
Looking at the disheveled flying zombie with a dim corpse aura, Jiale knew that it was almost time.
The Nine Yang Evil-Suppressing Coffin shot towards the flying zombie. At this moment, the flying zombie was launching a new round of attacks towards Jia Le, but was covered by the dim light of the Nine Yang Evil-Suppressing Coffin. If it was a flying zombie in its prime, the Nine Yang Evil-Suppressing Coffin would certainly not be able to capture it all at once. However, at this moment, the flying zombie was just a spent force, and it was easy to capture it.
The flying zombie was put into the coffin, and Jiale directly activated the Sun's True Fire to begin refining the corpse. After comprehending the magical power of returning wind and fire, Jiale's comprehension of wind and fire became deeper, and the quality of the Sun's True Fire also improved with the improvement of Jiale's cultivation. With the combination of the two, the power of the Sun's True Fire is no longer what it was before.
There were bursts of corpse roars coming from the Nine Yang Evil Suppression Coffin, but to Jia Le's ears they were just death struggles.
Hundreds of little zombies also ran out at this time, but at Jiale's order, Kunlun and a group of spirit beasts had already rushed forward. Jiale had already told Kunlun that he and the white ape would be responsible for controlling the situation, and the matter of taking heads would be left to the seven fire crows, the angry chicken and the female ghost Xiaohong.
After accepting Xiaohong, Jiale directly controlled her soul. At this time, Xiaohong had become Jiale's ghost servant, and her life and death depended only on Jiale's thoughts.
No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. After Jiale broke through to the Spiritual Transformation Realm, the energy beads in the unknown space had been used up and were in urgent need of replenishment. Although most of these small zombies were green zombies and hairy zombies, a little bit adds up to a lot, and thousands of zombies are equivalent to a Spiritual Transformation level energy bead, which cannot be wasted.
The sound inside the Nine Yang Evil Suppression Coffin was getting smaller and smaller. Fei Jiang probably never thought until his death what kind of person he had offended. He ended his life in such a humiliating and miserable way. He was beaten from beginning to end. His speed, which he was proud of, was not even good enough in front of Jia Le. He didn't even get his clothes touched.
The flying zombie has been eliminated, and a corpse pill appears in Jiale's hand. The last corpse pill has been fed to the Angry Chicken. This guy is like a big eater. He can digest any amount of food, and his strength is improving very fast. Now he has reached the middle stage of the Demon Soldier Realm, on par with the seven fire crows. After digesting the corpse pill, it will be easy for him to break through to the peak of the Demon Soldier Realm.
If I had this corpse pill again, it would not be impossible to break through to the demon general realm.
Jia Le was reluctant to part with the corpse pill. After all, it was of no use to him. Although the corpse pill contained a lot of energy, it was also full of corpse poison. The pill made from refining it would also be a poisonous pill. Among all the spirit beasts, only the Angry Chicken could transform the energy inside the corpse pill without fear of the poison inside.
Keep this corpse pill for now. If he has no use for it, wait until the Angry Chicken digests the corpse pill and then give it to it.
He slowly descended towards the place where the flying zombie was sleeping, and swept the ground with a sword. As expected, a thousand-year-old coffin fungus appeared in front of Jiale's eyes.
This coffin fungus is a spiritual creature that is born from the qi of corpses and yin energy. It grows underground. Jia Le has a divine eye that can see into the dark, so he discovered its existence at a glance.
Just take a photo with one hand and capture it directly in your hand.
Jiale is not Qiu Sheng or Wencai. The cold and gloomy energy of the coffin fungus cannot hurt Jiale. In fact, Jiale has mastered the Sun God Body, and there are few cold and gloomy things in this world that can pose a threat to Jiale.
After killing the flying zombies and collecting the coffin fungi, Jiale's purpose of coming to the zombie forest this time has been achieved.
Turning around, Kunlun's side was basically finished. In fact, among these zombies, only the flying zombie was worth looking at. There were only four hairy zombies left, and most of them were green zombies. When Kunlun and the others took action, it was like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
In unknown space.
Jiale looked at the full array of energy beads and could not help but nod his head in satisfaction. With energy beads on hand, he was not panicked. If all these energy beads were used for cultivation, it would be enough to support Jiale in breaking through to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
"go back!"
Kunlun and a group of spirit beasts followed Jiale closely and left the zombie forest in the blink of an eye.
As for the Zombie Forest, there is no need to worry about it. Under Jiale's thunder, the Zombie Forest has already been rejuvenated with a different kind of vitality. Tomorrow morning, when the sun rises, the Zombie Forest will be illuminated by sunlight again. Without these zombies, the Zombie Forest will soon return to normal. Near the sparsely populated Zombie Forest, as the news of the elimination of zombies spreads, population and villages will gradually appear.
Forests are important resources. As long as there is no threat, there will naturally be a lot of people willing to come here.
When Jiale left, he turned around and took a look at the trees in the forest that had died from lightning strikes. He couldn't help but shook his head. He didn't know which novel he had read in his previous life that said that by hitting trees with thunder, one could mass-produce lightning-struck wood. What was even more outrageous was that by using modern methods to attract lightning, one could directly produce batches of lightning-struck wood.
Jiale actually had this idea before and even tried it, but facts have proved that the real world is not an ideal paradise and lightning-struck wood is not so easy to get.
In the formation of lightning-struck wood, wood is the foundation and thunder is just one of the processes. Whether lightning-struck wood can be formed depends on the opportunity of the tree.
It is not so easy to bring a dead tree back to life in spring.
In the charity cemetery, Jia Le ignored Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai who wanted to see him. Now that he is the head of the Yin Yang lineage, he must set rules for the Yin Yang lineage. He was willing to open a back door for the two before, but the two could not grasp it. If Jia Le did not like to enter from behind, would he have kept opening the back door?
In the blink of an eye, it was time to go up the mountain as agreed.
In the past few days, Jiale has been practicing. In the unknown space, the thousands of energy beads that were originally there are now half gone. Jiale's cultivation is also becoming more and more profound, and he has made another step forward towards the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
In addition to the Maoshan Transformation Technique, Jiale practiced the Great Sun Divine Form Technique every day, and his Sun God Body was not far from being a minor success.
However, after reaching the Spirit Transformation Realm, Jiale's first priority was to obtain energy beads. Energy beads below the Spirit Transformation Realm were of little use to Jiale, unless they were in large quantities like in the Zombie Forest. However, there were not many demons and monsters at the Spirit Transformation Realm level in the cultivation world today. Thinking about it carefully, there was only one piece of experience in Jiale's mind, and that was Teng Teng Town.
It has been a while since Taoist Huang left, and I don’t know how the investigation is going. It’s impossible that he would have been reminded and still died in Tengteng Town.
After returning to Maoshan and sorting out the affairs of the Yin-Yang lineage, Jiale would go to Tengteng Town in person to take a look. There were many more zombies there than in the Zombie Forest, and there was even a zombie king. If he could pacify them, Jiale would have enough energy to break through to the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm.
"Master, everyone is here."
Uncle Jiu's voice rang out outside the house. When there were few people around, Uncle Jiu would usually call Jia Le by his name, but in front of a group of fellow disciples and juniors, Uncle Jiu would call him very formally, addressing him as the Pulse Master. Not only Uncle Jiu, but also Simu did the same. Maoshan had strict rules and regulations, and they all came from Maoshan, so these rules were still deeply engraved in their hearts.
Jiale opened the door and nearly a hundred people appeared in front of him. These were the people who were chosen to be brought to Maoshan after screening.
In addition to Uncle Jiu and his five companions and dozens of outer disciples, dozens of outstanding young people were carefully selected and returned to Maoshan together.
Glancing at Shi Jian in the crowd, Jia Le was still very interested in the Lightning Thunder Fist and the Wooden Stake Technique. However, Shi Jian did not have these two techniques, so there was no need to ask Shi Jian. After returning to Maoshan, Jia Le, as the head of the Yin-Yang lineage, would naturally be able to open the treasure house of the Yin-Yang lineage at will. By then, not only the Lightning Thunder Fist and the Wooden Stake Technique, but other techniques would also be readily available, so there was no need to rush.
Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai stood behind Uncle Jiu, looking a little lonely. They looked at Jia Le from time to time, wanting to say something, but ultimately did not open their mouths.
Jiale didn't look at them either.
They chose their own path, but after all, they are closer. It all depends on their performance in the future. After Uncle Jiu leaves, if the two of them can support the charity cemetery and become truly mature, Jiale will not hesitate to give them a chance. At that time, it will not be considered a backdoor.
In the courtyard, most of the dozens of young people are not as good as Qiu Sheng, but they are willing to work hard, especially Qianhe's disciple Dongnanxixi. Jiale would rather have Dongnanxixixi than Qiu Sheng, who has some talent but only knows how to squander and cause trouble.
If Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai could really grow up, how could Jia Le abandon them?
"Set off!"
Holding the pulse jade in his hand, Jiale gave an order and hundreds of people left the charity cemetery in a mighty manner. Uncle Jiu led the way. Jiale didn't know the way back to Maoshan, so only an old man like Uncle Jiu could do it.
After all, the cultivation levels of the hundreds of people were different, so their marching speed was not very fast. However, they were all cultivators after all, so three days was enough for them to reach the foot of Mount Maoshan.
Zoumatang Village.
There is a village at the foot of Maoshan, Zoumatang Village, which has existed longer than the Maoshan Sect. When Sanmao arrived on a crane, he lived in Zoumatang Village for a period of time. Sanmao had several disciples, all of whom were recruited from Zoumatang Village. It can be said that this village has a special meaning for Maoshan.
For the villages and towns outside, which have been impacted by Western ideas, they may no longer believe in Buddhism and Taoism, but Zoumatou Village is the place closest to Maoshan. Every year, elders from the mountain will come down to Zoumatou Village to recruit disciples. As long as one has good aptitude for cultivation, they will basically be accepted into Maoshan. Nowadays, many of Maoshan’s disciples were born in Zoumatou Village.
Zoumatang Village, located on the south side of Mount Maoshan, enjoys the nourishment of Mount Maoshan's spiritual energy and is a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery. Not only is the appearance rate of qualified children higher, but also many outstanding people have emerged over the past thousand years, including countless Jinshi and Juren.
However, no matter how famous it is and how many talented people and beautiful scenery it has, the villagers of Zoumatou Village have not made major renovations to the village. Instead, they have tried their best to maintain its ancient appearance, making people feel at home at first sight.
Outside, you can no longer find this kind of simple rural life.
When Jiale and his group entered Zoumatang Village, the villagers were not afraid or surprised. They had seen many Taoists. From time to time, Taoists would come down from Mount Maoshan to purchase things. What's more, some families even had children practicing Taoism on Mount Maoshan.
Jiale and his group did not stay in the village. After passing Zoumatang Village, they arrived at Maoshan.
"Mount Mao is a famous tourist destination today and in ancient times, with its beautiful peaks towering around Cangzhou.
The clouds containing the old trees are lost and then dispersed, the stones embrace the sweet spring water and then linger.
I didn't see any cranes flying down from the rocks in the morning breeze, but I could hear cicadas chirping in the moonlit night in the stream.
The Taoist is not a sad autumn person, the yellow chrysanthemums and red maples are sad for each other. "
Maoshan is a famous tourist destination in China, with many people coming and going, and the scenery is even more pleasant. Breathing in the spiritual energy of the mountains, Jiale couldn't help but feel relaxed. No wonder those Buddhists and Taoists are willing to practice seclusion. The mountains and forests are indeed better than the bustling human world. To refine the mind and practice in the worldly affairs, one still has to be in such a place of practice.
A mountain path appeared before everyone. After running less than a thousand steps, a Taoist temple appeared before everyone.
"Shangqing Temple!"
This is the Taoist temple of Maoshan open to the outside world. With the reputation of Maoshan, there is naturally no shortage of believers. Basically, there are people coming to Shangqing Temple to pray every day. Maoshan is closed, but it does not mean that it is completely isolated from the outside world. Shangqing Temple is this connection. Shangqing Temple has a lot of cultivation and thousands of years of accumulation. In a sense, Shangqing Temple is also the face of Maoshan.
From afar, Jiale could see the strong aroma of incense in Shangqing Temple.
There are two kinds of Taoists in Maoshan. One kind practices the method of immortality, like Jia Le. The other kind does not practice the method, but only studies Taoism. They recite Taoist scriptures and comprehend the way of nature. They are called "Qingxiu". Although they cannot achieve immortality, their comprehension of Taoism and their realm of mind may be even higher than those monks who practice the method of immortality.
Some people practice meditation and attain enlightenment for a hundred years. Once they achieve enlightenment, they can achieve success in their Yin Spirit and directly enter the realm of refining the spirit, just like those great scholars and scholars who ascend to heaven in broad daylight.
There are no Taoists in Shangqing Temple, only people who practice Taoism.
Most of the mundane affairs within Mount Mao are handled by the monks in Shangqing Temple.
"Uncle Master Biyong!"
As if they knew someone was going up the mountain, a Taoist priest in his seventies appeared in front of the gate of Shangqing Temple, and with him came several ascetics. A closer look revealed that although these ascetics did not have any magical powers, they could give people a sense of peace and tranquility that could not be felt in other monks.
Jiale looked at Bi Yong in front of him. This old Taoist should be nearly a hundred years old. His state of mind and cultivation was even higher than Jiale's. He was probably not far from the legendary Yin God. After all, he was restricted by the heaven and earth. In such a world, not only was cultivation difficult, but enlightenment was also obscure. If it were in ancient times, this great-grandmaster would probably have already achieved the status of Yin God, or even higher.
When Jia Le came in front of them, Bi Yong focused his gaze on him intentionally or unintentionally. Although Bi Yong had no cultivation, his soul was blessed by the enlightenment and he was very sensitive. He might have seen Jia Le's cultivation. No, he might have already sensed it when Jia Le appeared in Maoshan.
The must generation!
There are different requirements for pure cultivation and legal cultivation. In Maoshan, pure cultivation does not have to follow the rules of bestowing a name on the golden elixir. This great-uncle Bi Yong should be from the same generation as Great-uncle Jia Le, but his seniority is very high. Uncle Jiu was very happy to see him, and he went straight to Bi Yong and bowed.
Looking at Uncle Jiu and Jiale, Bi Yong actually smiled. There was relief, joy, and more in that smile.
"I woke up early and felt the purple air coming from the east. Now I see that it is true. The Yin-Yang lineage has been declining since my senior brother and has wasted a generation. Now it has finally returned to the mountain. It is really a cause for celebration. The reunion of the nine lines of Maoshan will surely make Maoshan prosperous again. Xiaojiu, Simu, you have lived up to the expectations of the mountain master and senior brother."
Uncle Jiu and Simu actually shed tears when they heard this, "Master, this is Master Bi Yong's great-uncle, he has been in charge of the Qing Temple for thirty years."
After that, Uncle Jiu introduced Jiale to Biyong.
"Uncle Master, this is Jiale, Simu's disciple. He just broke through the Spiritual Transformation Realm not long ago. I have already handed over the master of the vein to Jiale. Whether the Yin-Yang vein can prosper depends on Jiale."
Jiale was not arrogant either. He stepped forward quickly and bowed.
"Jia Le meets his uncle-master."
Regardless of seniority or state of mind, this must be worthy of Jiale's respect.
Bi Yong nodded slowly, his face showing even more joy, "Cheng Feng, ring the golden bell to welcome the Yin and Yang lineage of Maoshan back to the mountain gate."
As soon as he finished speaking, a hermit behind Bi Yong went straight back into the temple.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
The golden bell rang thirty-two times, and the whole of Maoshan was shaken.
Maoshan has been closed to the outside world except for Shangqing Temple. In the past hundred years, the Golden Bell has not been rung except for the last time when Baili Huating was destroyed. Now the Golden Bell was rung again, thirty-two times. The whole Maoshan was alarmed, and no one knew what had happened.
Mountain Master Ziyin was awakened from his cultivation and glanced at Jiale and others in front of Shangqing Temple, especially Jiale. Mountain Master Ziyin was at the Spirit Refining Realm, so he could naturally tell Jiale's level of cultivation at a glance. Mountain Master Ziyin had a deep impression of Jiale. After all, it was Jiale that his uncle-master possessed during the last attack on Baili Huating.
At that time, the mountain master Zi Yin discovered that Jia Le had an excellent talent and had even broken through to the Qi Refining Stage at a young age, which was better than all the disciples of Maoshan that generation.
At that time, the original intention of the mountain master Ziyin was to bring Jiale back to Maoshan for careful training. According to the mountain master Ziyin's estimation, with Maoshan's training, Jiale might be able to break through to the God Transformation Realm within ten years.
However, this idea was rejected by his uncle-master at that time. There was no other way, and Mountain Master Ziyin could only give up.
However, Mountain Master Zi Yin could never have imagined that it had only been a short period of one or two years for Jia Le to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm. Moreover, judging from Jia Le's aura, he was probably not just an ordinary Spirit Transformation Realm cultivator.
The elixir has been transformed for more than seven times!
No, the aura is heavy and condensed, and he has supernatural powers. Could it be that he has innate supernatural powers? Thinking of this, the mountain master Zi Yin was also shocked. If this is true, it is truly a God-given opportunity for Maoshan to prosper.
"Gather all the elders and disciples, open the mountain gate, and welcome the Yin and Yang lineage of Maoshan back to the mountain!"
