Chapter 156: Foundation Building
"Immortals and mortals are separated forever. I don't know whether I should believe it or not. There is one thing I don't understand. Are there immortals in this world?"
Tian Lin said one sentence, and then followed it up: "When I was seeking immortality, someone said that there is Guanghan Palace on the moon, and Chang'e lives in it. Disciple, please tell me, is there Guanghan Palace on the moon, and is there Chang'e?"
Elder Yu shook his head. He also raised his head and looked high into the sky. It seemed that he could see the moon in broad daylight:
"I don't know, I can't climb that moon."
Tian Lin laughed: "Master, if you can't go up, I wonder who in the Taoist sect can go up?"
Elder Yu shook his head again: "No one from the Taoist sect has ever gone up there."
Tian Lin's smile became even brighter and he said: "So, the disciples don't know whether the immortals and the mortals will be separated forever, and I'm afraid those in the Taoist sect may not know either.
Because, in the final analysis, the disciples and the ancestors of the Taoist Sect are all the ‘ordinary’ among the immortals! "
Elder Yu laughed heartily after hearing this.
After he laughed, he said to Tian Lin:
"The fact that you have come here proves that Huang Ping'an has chosen you. Over the past three thousand years, he will look at you and wait to see if you can give him an answer."
Huang Pingan, who has been seeking immortality for hundreds of years, went to sea when he was more than a hundred years old.
First he became a blood cultist, then he knelt for half a year, ate shit, and finally entered Taoism.
But until his death, even though he had reached the golden elixir realm, he was still just an outer disciple.
Immortals and mortals are separated forever. Are immortals and mortals really separated forever?
Huang Ping'an refused to close his eyes even to death, and rang the bell for five thousand years, just to get this answer.
Tian Lin didn't know if Huang Ping'an could hear what he just said, but Tian Lin also had a question.
How is the moon in the sky different from the moon I saw in my previous life?
"I accept you as a disciple, but I want you to cross the sea and come to Taoist Sect to find me. When the time comes, you take my hand and start as a handyman disciple——
Huang Ping'an has been ringing the bell for five thousand years, and I will give you the place to be my true disciple. But whether you can be recognized by the Taoist Sect as a true disciple depends on your own abilities.
I hope that in the last three thousand years, Huang Pingan can see the answer from you. "
After the old man finished speaking, he pointed towards Tian Lin with one finger.
Tian Lin felt a pain between his brows, but his true energy exploded in his Dantian.
In an instant, his twelve meridians frantically absorbed the spiritual energy around him, converting it into the five elements of true energy and attacking his Dantian.
He felt that there seemed to be huge waves roaring in his mind.
With his eyes closed at the moment, he could see every plant and tree five meters away, one hundred meters in radius, and one kilometer in radius.
With his eyes closed, he saw the old man walking out of the Taoist temple and raising his hand toward the sky.
A huge tree fell from the sky and he patted it into his pocket.
"Go ahead. Jade Dragon Continent is too small. I also want to see if you can really go to the moon and find the answer."
After the old man finished speaking, Tian Lin had returned to Wendao Mountain.
‘Boom, boom! ’
The Dao bell rang at this time, and when Tian Lin opened his eyes, he saw something different when he looked at Daoshan.
He looked at the people on Wendao Mountain, and after saluting with them, he patted the token in his storage bag and threw it to Zhou Shoufan below.
"Zhou Shoufan, this is the token you want."
With one against four, Zhou Shoufan suddenly heard Tian Lin speak and looked up at the flying token.
Just when Zhou Shoufan was about to grab the token, a figure grabbed the token at an extremely fast speed.
When Tian Lin appeared in Daoshan Mountain, he had already discovered Xue En.
At this time, Xue En laughed proudly and rushed to the second platform with the token.
Tian Lin did not stop Xue En, but just said to Zhou Shoufan below:
"Zhou Shoufan, Xue En killed you in the illusion and bullied your mother. I look down on him very much——"
As soon as these words came out, Xue En's face changed drastically, and he glared at Tian Lin and said, "You bastard, do you think you can stop taking this leader seriously when you reach the foundation level?"
Indeed, Tian Lin's cultivation in the early stages of foundation building was still not enough in front of those present.
So when he saw Xue En coming forward, he immediately used the wind movement technique and walked down the stone steps.
Xue En took the first two steps to catch up, but then gave up chasing Tian Lin.
Because compared to chasing Tian Lin, leaving Cangzhou through the teleportation array is more critical.
The Zhou family's token is a teleportation talisman, and the stone case on the second floor platform is a teleportation array.
At this time, Tian Lin finally understood in his heart why the token in the illusion only had nine mountains, but the map he got on the token showed ten.
Because among them, the extra one on Wendao Mountain was added by Zhou Shoufan.
As a teleportation symbol, the so-called map displayed by the token is actually the main purpose of anchoring the space where the teleportation array is located.
"Junior Xue En, you are seeking death!"
Just when Xue En walked to the teleportation array, Zhou Shoufan appeared next to Xue En in an instant.
What about the later stages of foundation building?
Xue En only looked at each other and Zhou Shoufan immediately vomited blood.
Before he could make any move, the token in his hand had already returned to Zhou Shoufan's hand.
Xue En's expression changed drastically, and he ran down the mountain in an instant.
Where could Zhou Shoufan let him go?
It's a pity that Zhou Shoufan has a great soul, but his cultivation is still in the early stage of foundation building, so he couldn't take down Xue En instantly.
"My surname is Zhou, the token has been returned to you, why are you chasing me?"
Xue En escaped quickly enough, but Zhou Shoufan was not too slow in pursuit.
Among those present, Tian Lin knew best that Zhou Qin was simply Zhou Shoufan's inverse.
What he just said was enough to make Zhou Shoufan have to kill Xue En.
"Xue En is in a terrible situation right now."
Liu Xuanfeng couldn't help but finish his sentence, then turned to look at Tian Lin, cupped his hands with Tian Lin and said, "Fellow Taoist Tian, congratulations."
Tian Lin hurriedly held the ceremony and said: "If the disciple has done anything wrong, please ask the master to punish him."
Liu Xuanfeng said: "I don't mean to ridicule you, but you have become a foundation-building monk, so you and I should be considered equals -"
Elder Liu looked at Tian Lin very seriously and said, "Fellow Daoist Tian, I wonder if the immortal rope is still on you?"
Tian Lin hesitated slightly, but thinking that Elder Liu had indulged him a lot in the past and was indeed kind enough to teach him the skills, he took out the fairy rope from his storage bag.
Elder Liu collected the fairy rope and looked at Tian Lin with a much closer attitude.
At this time, Elder Xiao couldn't help but ask him: "I heard from the ancestor of the Zhou family that he wanted to tie the immortal rope for you?"
Elder Liu nodded and said: "Yes, one of the conditions for me to help him resurrect his body is that he help me collect five fairy binding ropes, including the two broken ropes."
Elder Xiao frowned when he heard this: "What do you want this bundle of fairy rope for?"
"Of course it's for goodwill."
When Elder Xiao heard this, he was particularly dissatisfied and said: "I think that business reputation, both in terms of talent and character, cannot compare to Tian Lin.
You just left Tian Lin alone without teaching, so why do you insist on looking for goodwill? I heard that you tried your best to get Junior Brother He to accept him as your disciple, but his goal was to kill you. "
Elder Liu stroked his beard proudly: "I know he wants to kill me, so I have been waiting for him to kill me."
Elder Xiao couldn't figure out what Elder Liu was thinking. He frowned and asked Elder Liu, "You said that Zhou Shoufan's help in collecting immortal ropes was one of the conditions for agreeing to your agreement. What about the second condition?"
"The second condition is that after he goes to Cangzhou, he must not forget his fellow disciples in Yulong Continent."
Elder Xiao sneered after hearing this: "He went to Cangzhou and will bring us a thousand-year tree? Do you believe this?"
Elder Liu shook his head: "It's hard to say this - but I have been planning the Yulong Continent's millennium dilemma for decades. Zhou Shoufan is just a casual move on my part."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Zhou Shoufan's voice:
"You Liu Xuanfeng likes to play chess so much. If we have the chance, we will have a good game. But, where is your apprentice?"
After Zhou Shoufan finished asking, Liu Xuanfeng asked Elder Xiao, "Oh, where did Junior Brother Tian go? Have you seen him?"
Elder Xiao shook his head and said, "He seems to have gone to the first level of the third section of stone steps, or maybe the second level of stone steps?"
Only Elder He said: "Didn't Tian Lin follow Xue En down the mountain when he escaped?"
Seeing Zhou Shoufan about to go down the mountain again, Liu Xuanfeng suddenly said:
"Old Ancestor Zhou, the teleportation array on the second floor seems to be cracking. If you don't teleport, I'm afraid that when you come back later, the teleportation array won't be able to be used."
Zhou Shoufan threw away Xue En's grinning head in his hand, turned to look at Liu Xuanfeng, and said coldly: "Are you threatening me?"
Liu Xuanfeng grinned and said: "How can I, this junior, dare to threaten you, my ancestor? That teleportation array is really going to burst."
Zhou Shoufan sneered and turned to the stone table on the second floor platform.
He put the token into the groove on the stone desk, and the space at the stone desk was distorted for a moment.
"Huang Ping'an has been praying for the truth all his life, but he never asked for an explanation until his death. Why are immortals and mortals separated forever, and humans and ghosts can't enter? I insist on entering——
And you, Liu Xuanfeng, you pin your hopes on a few moves of idle chess. In my opinion, those few people you picked are not as good as yourself. "
After he finished speaking, the token on the stone table and his whole person disappeared.
Elder Xiao walked onto the platform, looked at the stone case and was silent for a long time and said:
"He has a saying that is right. It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. I don't know something. Since you know that this is a teleportation array that can be teleported away, why don't you leave to Cangzhou by yourself?
At least if you go to Cangzhou, you should find a way to send Thousand-Year Wood back. "
Liu Xuanfeng shook his head and said: "There are many things that cannot be accomplished by one person. Back then, you, me and Xing Tongtian, the three of us always believed that as long as the three of us work together, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished.
Later, I became more and more convinced of this - I also thought that if I went to Cangzhou, I would definitely find a way to bring the thousand-year-old wood back.
But what if I go to Cangzhou and never come back? "
He said: "Dandelions are extremely fragile by nature. But a dandelion has hundreds or thousands of seeds -
Most of these seeds will not survive if they are scattered or fall into the forest where they are completely blocked from sunlight. But there will always be a small part that can take root and eventually grow. "
Speaking of this, Liu Xuanfeng suddenly said: "Where are the people from Tianlin?"
Elder Xiao said: "This kid is very cunning. After Zhou Shoufan chased Xue En down the mountain, this kid had already escaped. I'm afraid he won't come out anytime soon."
Liu Xuanfeng said angrily: "Find this kid quickly, I suspect this kid is hiding something...
If he didn't have a way to leave the Jade Dragon Continent, would he return the token to Zhou Shoufan so happily? "
