Volume 3: The World of the Lotus Lantern Chapter 6 Returning to Maoshan: Super Seniority
Outside the Fairy Bathing Pond, four figures were looking at Jiale in the pond.
After sensing the breath of the four people, Jiazi God and Dingmao God became slightly alert but did not take any action.
"Three sisters-in-law, you are here too. This child is lucky to have been favored by three sisters-in-law."
It turned out that these four people were actually the Heavenly Master Ge Xuan and the Three Goddesses of the Sky. In fact, the four of them had been here a long time ago. They had been watching since Jiale and Dong Yong entered Tianquan Mountain, until Jiale killed the toad spirit. They had seen it all. Now, seeing that Jiale had found the corpses of the nine golden crows, refined their essence and blood, and perfected the Sun God Body, they were even more shocked.
I like it even more. With such aptitude and talent, there is a great possibility that he can become a Xuanxian, let alone a Jinxian. He is definitely the future of the Shangqing lineage.
"Why, Xiao Xuanzi, you can come but we can't? Tell me, are you afraid that we will snatch the person away? Or are you planning to snatch the person away from us?"
Bixiao looked at Ge Xuan with great interest, as if he would be in trouble if Ge Xuan said something wrong.
Ge Xuan felt a headache when he saw Bixiao's appearance. In the Shangqing lineage, the one who should not be provoked the most was this girl. She had two older sisters and one older brother, each one more powerful than the other. Anyone who provoked this little ancestor would be punished lightly by having the door blocked. It was only in the past two years that she turned over a new leaf and rarely came out to harm people. In the past, people would hide when they saw her.
But he couldn't avoid it today. If he had avoided it, Jiale might have been kidnapped.
"Master, you are joking. Chunyuan is my Maoshan disciple. How can you rob him? Moreover, we are all from the Shangqing lineage. Chunyuan is also Master's disciple. We are all family, family."
Bi Xiao couldn't help but glared at Ge Xuan when he heard this. "After becoming a Heavenly Master, you didn't learn anything else, but your speaking skills have become much more profound. I don't care about that. We were the ones who took a fancy to this little guy first. You can leave now."
Ge Xuan felt his liver begin to ache, and secretly blamed Jia Le, "Why did you mess with this little ancestor when you could mess with anyone else? If you get serious with this, how can you take him away?"
There was no other way, Ge Xuan could only look to Yunxiao for help, hoping that Yunxiao could help him speak up. In this whole world, apart from Shangqing Daozu, only Yunxiao could control Bixiao.
Yunxiao also glared at Bixiao and said, "Stop making trouble. After all, you are one generation older than Ge Xuan, so you are not afraid of being laughed at. Wait until you finish your Chunyuan training."
Seeing that Ge Xuan dared to use her sister to pressure her, Bixiao couldn't help but curl her lips and gave Ge Xuan a look to let him experience it himself. Ge Xuan knew that he would have no good days from now on. Being targeted by such a little ancestor, he would be in big trouble. He just hoped that Jiale had a conscience, otherwise, he would suffer a great loss today.
"Ge Xuan, have you seen this kid before? With such great luck, we should have remembered him. It has been a long time since the Nine Golden Crows fell to the earth. Many people have been looking for their bodies, and many people have suspected the Immortal Bathing Pool, but they just couldn't find it. Now, it's a good thing that Chunyuan found it as soon as he arrived."
Qiong Xiao was also quite interested when she looked at Jia Le below. If someone had asked them what was the most important thing in practicing Taoism before they were deified, they would definitely say that having many brothers and sisters, valuing friendship and loyalty, and fighting side by side. They seemed to have always done so. However, after being deified, they understood a truth: human power cannot defeat destiny, and it turns out that the most important thing in practicing Taoism is luck.
The Shangqing lineage lost because of their fate.
Now seeing someone like Jiale who has great fortune, how could Qiongxiao not be happy.
Hearing this, Ge Xuan smiled bitterly, "I wanted to ask the three sisters-in-law about Chun Yuan's origins, but they didn't know. If Chun Yuan hadn't broken through to the level of a True Immortal, and the luck of Maoshan hadn't increased greatly, and the luck lotus had not appeared, I wouldn't have known of Chun Yuan's existence. However, Chun Yuan's Shangqing technique cannot be faked. He is my disciple of the Shangqing lineage, but I don't know if this technique was obtained by chance, or not!"
Sanxiao understood what he said. Now that the person is right in front of him, he can just ask Jiale after he finishes his training.
After absorbing all nine drops of Golden Crow's blood, Jiale's Sun God Body was fully developed, which greatly improved Jiale's cultivation. The Sun God Body was originally in Yin and Yang, and Jiale's talent in the way of Yin and Yang was also inseparable from the bonus of the Sun God Body. Now, not only has the Sun God Body been fully developed, but he has also comprehended many ways of the Yang, the transformation of Yin and Yang, and the way of Yin and Yang has reached 20%. His cultivation has directly broken through the fifth level of the True Immortal, which can be said to be a great harvest.
"My Lord, another immortal from the Three Goddesses has arrived."
Jiale had just finished his training when Jiazi God and Dingmao God came to report. Jiale was moved and was not surprised. This was a good thing. It would come sooner or later. It would be better to come early than late. In the future, he would be slaying demons and eliminating evil, and there would probably be a lot of troubles, and he would need these big ones to clean up his mess.
boom!
At this moment, the seven fire crows finally broke through the limit of the Demon Lord realm and reached the Demon Immortal realm in one step.
The most important thing is, when Jiale absorbed the blood essence of the Golden Crow, all the energy that escaped was absorbed by them. Nine drops of the blood essence of the Great Sun Golden Crow, even if only the escaped ones, were enough for the seven Fire Crows to cleanse his bloodline. Now that his red hair has been replaced by golden feathers, he has become a Golden Crow. Although his bloodline is not as pure as the nine Golden Crows, and he cannot bear the Great Sun, his bloodline has been improved and is no longer comparable to before.
Seeing the seven golden crows flying up, Ge Xuan and Sanxiao couldn't help but be shocked. They had never seen anyone raising fire crows, let alone raising golden crows. It was simply unbelievable. If the Jade Emperor knew about this, who knows how he would feel.
Yunxiao waved her slender hand and completely concealed the sound of the seven golden crows' breakthrough.
Jiale heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this scene. Seven Golden Crows would probably cause quite a bit of trouble in this world. Although he now has a backer, trouble is still trouble after all, and those who cause trouble may not let him go just because of his backer.
"Disciple Nengchun pays homage to the Grandmaster and the three goddesses."
After standing up, Jiale did not dare to delay and hurried to greet Ge Xuan and Sanxiao.
Can be pure!
Upon hearing this, Ge Xuan was shocked at first, and then he was delighted. By saying this, Jia Le admitted that he was a disciple of Maoshan. Now there was no question of snatching it away, as this was Jia Le's own choice.
Bixiao curled her lips. Jiale obviously didn't give her any chance. What else could she say?
"I ask you, why haven't I seen you before? It's like you suddenly appeared. You even raised a Golden Crow, which I haven't even raised before."
Bixiao looked at the seven golden crows with his eyes shining. Yes, if he could raise seven golden crows and take them out, it would be a very impressive thing.
"Three madams and ancestors, I ascended to this world a month ago. I am not a native of this world. The three madams and ancestors have naturally never seen me."
The four of them were stunned when they heard the words flying up. They hadn't heard of this word for many years.
As high-ranking members of the Shangqing lineage, the four naturally knew about the theory of ascension. They also knew that there were countless worlds in this space and time. Even the world today was not the highest. However, ascending from a lower world to a higher world was not a simple matter. Those who could achieve ascension were all talents in that world tens of millions of years ago.
As for the origin of Jiale's martial arts, the theory of ascension is not difficult to explain. After all, the Taoist ancestor has a single thought that can influence millions of people, and the Taoist tradition is basically passed down in all walks of life. Jiale may have obtained the Shangqing Taoist tradition from the original world.
"Hun Jing Xi Jing, keep your profound aspirations, follow the Tao of the Great Heaven, be self-respecting, respect the virtues of your ancestors, inherit the true response, be the heir of your teacher, treasure your friends, and prosper forever. You should respect them, and your sons should inherit them. You should think about the succession and be upright. You are actually from the generation of Neng. The word "ascension" is easy to say, but the hardships involved are probably not worth telling to outsiders. However, since you have entered this world, there is no distinction between you and me. We are one family of Shangqing, and we have never cared about these things. Now are you willing to return to Maoshan?"
Jia Le was also delighted when he heard this, "I am a disciple of Maoshan, and this will not change in my life."
Ge Xuan burst into laughter upon hearing that, and Bi Xiao even had the urge to come up and beat him up.
"Just tell us about your ascension, and don't tell anyone else. If anyone asks you about it, just say you are my last disciple, but I have never revealed it to the world. From today on, you will be called Jing Chun." After saying this, Ge Xuan bowed to the three sisters, "I also ask the three sisters to keep Jing Chun a secret. This is a serious matter. If people know that Jing Chun ascended, I am afraid there will be a lot of trouble."
Yunxiao nodded, "Of course, when the spirit responded, I used the method of Shangqing to explore his nature, and it was trustworthy."
Qiong Xiao also nodded, and Bi Xiao nodded at Jia Le, "I say, are you sure you want to follow this old man? Why don't you come back to Sanxian Island with us? I will accept you as my disciple, and you and Xiao Xuanzi will be brothers in the future."
Jiale felt ashamed when he heard that. Bixiao really had no taboos and his reputation was well-deserved.
Ge Xuan naturally didn't dare to say anything and remained silent like Jia Le.
"Okay, what are you doing? If that's the case, we won't stay any longer. The four continents are in turmoil. If you have time, Jingchun, you can come to Sanxian Island to practice. Ge Xuan, I'm leaving."
After saying this, Yunxiao took Qiongxiao and Bixiao and left.
"Farewell, Master Aunt (Master Uncle)!"
Jiale had not expected that things would go so smoothly. Ge Xuan and Sanxiao did not even ask him about the world before he ascended. At this moment, he felt the true charm of teaching without distinction. Moreover, this directly increased his generation from the Neng generation to the Jing generation. From now on, Zhenliang would have to call him Grandmaster whenever he saw him.
It makes me happy just thinking about it.
"Let's go back to Maoshan."
The seven golden crows had already broken through and landed behind Jiale. Seeing that everything was accomplished, Ge Xuan was unwilling to delay. In fact, if he had not come to find Jiale, Ge Xuan would not have been willing to come to this Southern Continent.
Before the journey to the West, the Buddha once said.
"I have observed the four continents, and the good and evil of sentient beings vary from place to place. The people of the Eastern Continent of Gods respect heaven and earth, and have a clear mind and a calm spirit; the people of the Northern Continent of Giants, although they like to kill, do so only to make a living, and are clumsy and indifferent, so they do not do much harm; the people of my Western Continent of Oxen and He are not greedy or murderous, and cultivate their spirits and spirits. Although they are not the Supreme Beings, everyone lives a long life; but the people of the Southern Continent of Jambudvīpa are greedy, lustful, and take pleasure in misfortune, and they kill many people. It is what is called a vicious field of gossip and a sea of right and wrong."
Just one sentence revealed Tathagata's disdain for Jambudvīpa. Jiale didn't understand it before, but now that he experienced it personally, he could understand a little bit.
Jambu Continent is where humans live. Their minds are complicated, the world is noisy, and their seven emotions and six desires are too strong. It seems that there are some laws, but in fact it is the most evil. If immortals stay there for a long time, their state of mind will inevitably be disturbed by the world and contaminated by cause and effect. The immortal body is also easily polluted, and inner demons will grow.
Originally, Jia Le was planning to go to the Southern Continent to slay demons and monsters, and then go to the Eastern Continent to Mount Mao to see if he could return to his roots. Unexpectedly, Ge Xuan came directly to him. Now, not only has he returned to his roots, but he has also become a member of the Jing generation. With this generation, he would probably be at the top even if he returns to Mount Mao.
It makes me happy just thinking about it.
"I will follow Master's arrangements."
During the process of cultivation, it is not important how many masters you have. What is important is to be respectful to every master. With Simu's personality, if he knew that he had Ge Xuan as his master, his first thought would probably be to imagine whether he could be directly promoted to the "Hun" generation.
Hearing Jiale's address, Ge Xuan was also satisfied.
Ge Xuan just made a move with his hand, and a cloud fell under his feet. Jia Le hurriedly followed, and after thinking again, the two of them had already appeared above the clouds. Looking down, they had already passed three mountains and five peaks, which showed how fast they were .
"Master, can I learn this skill of flying in the clouds?"
After all, Jiale had just broken through to the realm of True Immortal. What he had learned in the past, even in the Shangqing Dadong Sutra, did not mention the method of riding on clouds.
"Of course you can. I learned this from the Holy Mother Wu Dang. During the Conferred God Conferment, I was tainted with some evil spirits and had to go through the reincarnation. Fortunately, I broke through and ascended to the realm of the Golden Immortal. This method of riding the clouds is called: Shangqing Immortal Cloud. It was passed down by your master. Today, I will teach you. With your aptitude, you should be able to master it in a few years."
After saying that, Ge Xuan pointed at Jiale's brow, and a spell titled: Shangqing Xianyun suddenly appeared in Jiale's mind.
Only then did Jiale know that Ge Xuan was actually the disciple of the Holy Mother Wu Dang. It was only after he had gone through reincarnation that the events that followed happened. Now that he had told him everything, it was truly a heart-to-heart talk. It had to be said that the reason why Jiale was so devoted to Maoshan was closely related to the fact that he had entered the world of Uncle Jiu and the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio successively, and had received the warmth of Maoshan.
Although Maoshan is also an immortal sect, Jiale always feels that Maoshan is more humane than other sects.
Now that I meet Ge Xuan, it is still the same.
There was no rush to learn Shangqing Xianyun. Since Ge Xuan said that he would need several years to master it, even with the help of Kunlun Mirror, it would probably take more than a month. Now that Ge Xuan, a Golden Immortal, was in front of him, Jia Le naturally could not let him go. All along the way, he had relied on self-realization, and it was only with Kunlun Mirror and Energy Bead that Jia Le could have a smooth journey, but the consumption was also great. Now the free opportunity to ask for advice could not be missed.
Jiale has already comprehended 12 chapters of the Shangqing Dadong Sutra, but these 12 chapters were only obtained from the preaching stele. He has not mastered all of them, and there are still some unclear points. Jiale originally planned to accumulate a batch of energy beads to integrate them. Now that Ge Xuan is in front of him, he will naturally save as much as possible.
Even with the help of the Shangqing Immortal Cloud, it would probably take several days to return to Maoshan, Jiale asked directly.
Since Ge Xuan founded the Taoist tradition, he naturally liked to be a teacher.
Hearing Jiale asking for advice, he was naturally very happy. He was also a genius, so he naturally knew that geniuses had two fatal weaknesses. The first was arrogance. Because of his arrogance, he was unwilling to make friends with others. He was always one step ahead of others in cultivation, so he was even more unwilling to ask for advice. The other was that he always thought too highly of himself, so that many problems would be selectively ignored. He didn't know that this was a taboo in cultivation.
Before meeting Jiale, Ge Xuan thought that Jiale must also have these common problems of geniuses, but after meeting him, Ge Xuan discovered that Jiale was indeed a person who could ascend to heaven, and his character was indeed not comparable to that of ordinary geniuses.
With questions and answers, the Tao aura was surging above the Shangqing fairy clouds, making it seem like a fairyland.
Gradually, Jiale's questions became more and more profound. Later, even Ge Xuan sometimes had to think about it. There were even many questions. After Ge Xuan thought about them again, he gained a lot. Gradually, Ge Xuan also discovered that Jiale's comprehension of the Shangqing Dadong Sutra had reached such a level.
Such bone age, such achievements.
"Jia Le, we are just ahead of Mount Mao. Your master preaches once every thousand years. The next time is approaching. I will take you there when the time comes."
Holy Mother!
In the Shangqing lineage, there are five great holy mothers under the Taoist ancestor Shangqing, four of whom are the true disciples of the Taoist ancestor Shangqing, and the last one is the first of three generations.
The Holy Mother Wu Dang is one of the four Holy Mothers of the second generation. She is a disciple taught directly by the Taoist Master Shangqing, and can be said to be the most beloved disciple of the Taoist Master Shangqing.
In the battle of Conferred Gods, among the five great saint mothers, only the saint mother Wu Dang escaped the calamity. She can be said to be a rare disciple in Jiejiao who was devoted to spiritual practice.
Jiale was excited at the thought of meeting the Holy Mother Wu Dang in the near future.
"I will follow Master's arrangements."
The fairy clouds slowly descended, and after entering the Dongsheng Shenzhou, one could feel the aura of the Dongsheng Shenzhou, which was completely different from that of the Nanzhanbu Continent. The clear and spiritual energy of heaven and earth was abundant. Even if one was not on the fairy mountain, one would achieve something by choosing a good place to practice.
It is worthy of being the ancestral root of Xuanmen. Among the four continents, Dongsheng Shenzhou is probably the most suitable for practicing. Buddhism may be able to make a plan in Nanzhanbuzhou, but in Dongsheng Shenzhou, there is absolutely no Buddhist temple. Anyone who dares to establish a Buddhist sect here will probably have to report to the underworld the next day.
No matter how prosperous Buddhism is, Dongsheng Shenzhou is not a place where Buddhism thrives.
Maoshan is one of the numerous immortal mountains in Dongsheng Shenzhou. If we talk about the places for cultivation in this world, apart from the Heaven, the thirty-six caves and seventy-two blessed places are the best. There are few such caves and blessed places to begin with, and most of them were occupied by powerful people when this world was first established. Maoshan, also known as Difei Mountain, ranks first among the seventy-two blessed places. It can be seen that Ge Xuan had great luck to be able to found a mountain and establish a Taoist tradition here.
"Disciple Xirong, I pay my respects to the Grandmaster!"
"Disciples, please come and meet the Grandmaster!"
…
Ge Xuan came on a cloud with no intention of hiding his presence. Xirong and others naturally knew that the ancestor had come, so Xirong dared not neglect him and hurriedly brought the Maoshan leaders to the mountain gate to welcome him respectfully.
"No need to be polite, just stand up."
Ge Xuan asked everyone to stand up, and then everyone discovered that there was a stranger beside Ge Xuan, feeling Jiale's breath!
True Immortal! He is also practicing the Shangqing Dadong Sutra! Why does it look familiar?
"Xirong, this is Jingchun, my last disciple. He usually doesn't show up. Now that he has broken through to the realm of True Immortal, he will take the position of elder in the mountain gate from now on."
The last disciple!
Xirong was surprised when he heard this, "Disciple Xirong greets Uncle Master."
It stands to reason that Xirong, now that he is the head of Maoshan, does not need to perform formal formalities for Jiale. However, this is the first time they meet and Jiale has not officially returned to the mountain yet, so formalities are necessary. Although Jiale's cultivation level is only that of a true immortal, there is still an order of seniority and he should not be disrespected.
"Junior brother!"
The six people standing on the left and right of Xirong also bowed to Jiale at this time. The five of them were Ge Xuan's direct disciples. After Ge Xuan established Maoshan, he accepted five disciples, who were the five people in front of him. All of them had the cultivation level of Xuanxian. Now they serve as the supreme elders of Maoshan and also hold immortal positions in the Heavenly Court. However, except for the grand events in the Heavenly Court, they generally would not go to the Heavenly Court.
It was surprising to see that Ge Xuan had a new closed disciple, but since their master had already told them, they did not dare to ask any more questions. They did not think that the sudden appearance of a new junior brother was a bad thing, especially the fifth brother Jingxiao. Before Jiale came, he was the youngest, and now he could be a senior brother.
Although there are countless Maoshan disciples, he is not only the master but also the forefather, but this is completely different from being a senior brother.
"Jingchun, these are your five senior brothers, the eldest brother Jingren, the second brother Jingyi, the third brother Jingli, the fourth brother Jingzhi, and the fifth brother Jingxiao."
Jiale did not dare to neglect it and stepped forward to salute, "Jingchun greets the five senior brothers."
"Okay, let's go into the mountains."
Jiale followed Ge Xuan and went into the mountain with everyone. However, before entering the mountain gate, he followed the gaze and looked behind him. He found that he was a disciple at the peak of the Return to Void Realm. For some reason, there was some hostility in this guy's eyes, and even some jealousy. Jiale was sure that this was the first time he had seen this. He secretly kept an eye on him and prepared to see what was going on later.
The magnificent scenery of Maoshan.
Jiale discovered that whether it was the world of Uncle Jiu, the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, or the world of the Lotus Lantern today, the layout of Maoshan was basically the same. The difference was that based on this layout, the area was larger, there were more mountains, rivers, and trees, the spiritual energy was stronger, and there were many more mysteries.
Under Ge Xuan, there are six great Xuanxian and hundreds of Zhenxian. Jia Le is certain in his heart that with this force, even if he gets into some minor trouble in the future, he will be able to handle it. He doesn't know how many monsters and demons there are in Dongsheng Shenzhou.
Xirong is the eldest direct disciple of the eldest senior brother Jingren. After Ge Xuan, the second generation leader is the eldest senior brother Jingren. After Jingren abdicated, Xirong took over. In terms of talent, Xirong is definitely one of the best in the Three Pure Ones. He broke through to the Xuanxian level a full hundred years earlier than other Taoist sects of the same period. Maoshan has prospered a lot under the leadership of Xirong.
Ge Xuan did not stay in Maoshan for long. He was the Heavenly Master in the Heavenly Palace, but his life was not as leisurely as it seemed.
After Ge Xuan left, the five brothers came over to ask about Jiale. It was obvious that they were all very curious about Jiale. Of course, gifts were indispensable. They were all spiritual materials or spiritual medicines that were enough to refine spiritual treasures. They were very generous.
"My fellow brothers, I have only been practicing for over a hundred years. Before this, I had never walked in this world. It was not until I broke through to the realm of True Immortal in the Southern Continent a month ago that I returned to Mount Mao with the permission of my master."
A hundred years of practice! A breakthrough a month ago! Southern Continent!
Three shocks in a row!
"Junior brother, you have only practiced for a hundred years and you have already broken through to the True Immortal realm!"
"You broke through a month ago. How much accumulation do you have? It's only been a month since you broke through, and you've already reached the fifth level of the True Fairyland!"
"Nanzhanbuzhou, Uncle Master, a month ago, the Azure Lotus of Luck in Maoshan appeared, and the luck increased greatly. In the video, it was the person who was carrying the Nine Suns who broke through to the True Immortal. Could it be you, Uncle Master?"
Jiale looked at the Maoshan executives and nodded.
I’m convinced!
Seeing Jiale nod, at this moment, the entire Maoshan high-level leaders were convinced. Except for Ge Xuan, none of them could compare to the hundred-year-old True Immortal. What's more, he directly reached the fifth level of the True Immortal Realm after one breakthrough. During Jiale's hundred years, among the five senior brothers, the eldest brother Jingren, who practiced the fastest, had a bone age of two thousand when he broke through to the fifth level of the True Immortal Realm.
Jiale has actually avoided taking a detour for two thousand years.
Xirong felt it was natural for him to call him uncle-master at this time. With Jiale's talent, it was certain that he would break through to the Xuanxian realm or even surpass him. Moreover, with Jiale's breakthrough, Maoshan's fortune would soar. There was no need to think too much. In the future, Maoshan would surely prosper because of Jiale. As the head of the sect, he was naturally the happiest.
"I give up! Jingchun, it seems that we should not only not be lazy in the future, but also work harder in training. Otherwise, you might catch up with us in no time."
Fifth brother Jingxiao also had a bitter look on his face at this time. He originally thought that he had the cultivation level of a Xuanxian and could show off in front of Jiale, but after hearing this, a sense of crisis suddenly came up. As a senior brother, of course he hoped for the best for his junior brother, but it would be very embarrassing if his cultivation level was caught up by others.
"Uncle Master, since the founding of Maoshan, we have established hundreds of veins, which are divided into ten main veins and ninety branch veins, each of which passes on the true teachings. Most of the hundred vein masters are true immortals. In addition, there are nine elders, all of whom are in the late stage of the true immortal realm, or even the peak realm. I wonder if Uncle Master wants to choose one vein to pass on the teachings?"
"Just arrange a position for me as an elder. I can't manage anything. I'm afraid I won't stay in Maoshan for long. I've practiced for a hundred years, but I haven't traveled to the four continents yet. I'm afraid I'll have to travel abroad in the future."
Xirong's mind moved when he heard this.
"Then Uncle Master will be our Maoshan elder in the future and will be in charge of the specific matters."
“It’s best not to be responsible for anything.”
As soon as these words came out, the five brothers all laughed, "Jingchun, among our brothers, Jingxiao was the laziest. Now that you're here, he has to stand aside."
Jing Xiao was also unhappy when he heard this, "I have been much more diligent recently, okay."
Jiale really liked the happy atmosphere.
"Listen to Uncle Master."
Maoshan Hall.
Since Jiale had just returned to the mountain gate, Xirong naturally had to make some grand preparations and held a fruit banquet to welcome Jiale.
The monks enjoyed discussing the Dao. Not long after the fruit banquet began, a group of Maoshan high-level leaders joined in the discussion. It was also the first time for Jiale to sit in the same room with such high-level monks, and he gained a lot from it.
After the fruit banquet.
"Uncle Master, this is my eldest disciple Jingtian."
Sedum!
Jiale looked at the disciple in front of him. It was this disciple who had shown hostility towards him in front of the mountain gate.
Looking at the indifferent Jingtian, Xirong also felt that something was wrong. Ever since he met Jiale, Jingtian's expression had been wrong. He thought that there was a problem with his cultivation and was going to ask Jingtian what was wrong after the incident. Now, he took the initiative to introduce Jiale to him, but Jingtian didn't greet him. If Xirong still didn't know what the problem was, he was not worthy of being the head.
"Jingtian, I haven't met my uncle yet!"
Xirong also wanted to beat up this disciple at this moment. Although he was usually a little arrogant, he was still smart. What happened today? Thinking of the scene that day, Xirong seemed to have realized something. Did he feel that Jiale had stolen his limelight and was jealous of him?
Confused!
I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. Originally, Xirong only admired Jingtian's arrogance, and had no other thoughts. After all, he was a genius, so wasn't it normal for him to be a little arrogant? What's more, he was the first true disciple of their Maoshan, which was even more normal. But now, it seems that he is not just arrogant, but has already let his arrogance go to his head.
Even if he had some capital, he was nothing compared to Jiale. Compared with Jiale, he was even more useless than Jiale.
Jiale understood a little bit. Perhaps it was a common problem among most geniuses. They couldn't stand people who were more talented than themselves. Jiale appeared too suddenly and took away too much of Jingtian's halo, which made Jingtian hostile.
Thinking of this, Jiale shook his head. After all, they were just children.
Looking at the angry face of his master, Jingtian finally realized that he seemed to have been too obvious in his expression, and hurriedly restrained his emotions.
"Disciple Jingtian pays homage to his uncle-master."
After figuring out the reason, Jiale no longer had the heart to argue with Jingtian. After all, he was a junior, and a person who showed his emotions on his face was not at the same level as him. His cultivation was also lower. After a period of training, perhaps he would figure it out himself.
"No need to be polite." Waving his hand, Jiale looked at Xirong and said, "Master, I have been staying in the Sutra Hall recently. If you have anything to say, just let me know."
Watch Jiale leave.
Xirong then looked at Jingtian.
"Jingtian, you have disappointed me so much. People must be proud, but pride must be hidden in their bones. If you let your pride cloud your mind, that is the way to death. After you go back, reflect on yourself."
Looking at Xirong who left with a look of disappointment, Jingtian felt a little aggrieved. This was the first time that Xirong got so angry with him.
Sutra Repository.
Cultivation is supported by foundation, and one of the most important components of foundation is the accumulation of knowledge.
This is why one must read the Three Thousand Taoist Scriptures before becoming a monk.
