Chapter 457: The Immortals' Extraordinary Means

Chapter 457: The Immortal’s Extraordinary Means When he woke up, Lin Jue's expression became even more solemn. Suddenly a voice sounded in my mind: "Your great-grandmaster had a very high talent. Although he could not achieve enlightenment at the end of his practice, he could still live for a few more years. However, he suddenly encountered a mysterious obstacle at the end of his practice. He told me that it was a obstacle that all practitioners would encounter, and that his fate with the Tao had ended. But I have heard of a story - in ancient times, there was a practitioner who was disrespectful to the gods, so the gods punished him and cast a spell to confuse him, causing a mountain and fog to appear on his practice path. No matter how he tried to get around it, he could not find the way, so he had to work hard until his life was exhausted." This voice came from Senior Hua on Fengshan Mountain several years ago. At this moment, ripples began to appear in his heart again. If the priest came to him in a dream, he was just guessing. Now that the ancient immortal has come, he is 70% to 80% sure. The Holy Protector has already tripped me up. When I think carefully about how I feel now, it is very similar to what Senior Hua said about the feeling of the senior at Fuqiu Temple. Almost exactly the same. That senior had offended the Stargazing Palace.

Lin Jue was more direct and offended the Protector of the Saint. If this is true, it's a pretty clever move. The wisdom lies in that if you don’t really attain the Tao, you can’t see through it. If you can’t see through it, not only will it be difficult to truly attain the Tao, but you won’t even be able to tell why your practice is blocked or why your mind is confused. That senior spent his entire life trying to figure it out, and thought that it was just his fate that had ended and that he was just encountering a normal level. Now that I think about it, that senior also fought alone in the siege of Yushan Mountain. He must have been a real genius. And that senior may not be completely unaware of the reason why his cultivation has stagnated. But even if you see through it, what can you do? You cannot achieve enlightenment because you are still a mortal. As a Taoist priest, you cannot even do anything to the Protector of the Saint. How can you possibly do anything to the many gods behind the Star Observation Palace? Secondly, he couldn't be sure, after all, it was just a guess. This is where this method becomes more sophisticated—— When practicing Taoism, one must avoid being impatient and anxious. If you are not sure, just because your cultivation has stagnated and you have encountered obstacles, you will think that others have tripped you up. This is not only impatience, but can even be said to be paranoia. Therefore, when a cultivator encounters this situation, nine out of ten times, not only will they not seek verification, but they will even try to convince themselves, calm themselves down, and understand the obstacles. Even when Lin Jue thought of this, he couldn't help but doubt himself: Am I becoming paranoid at this moment? "..." Lin Jue shook his head. The Guardian Saint was so protective of his subordinates, no wonder he never bothered me after I killed his mount. Lin Jue thought he was on the right side, and because of his status as a god, he could not attack me unless he had a legitimate reason. That is indeed the case. But he did it in secret. But they didn't expect that they still had the recipe for the golden elixir, so they started to panic. Lin Jue opened his eyes. The fox sat next to him. Lin Jue said without hesitation: "Please go get me some paper and pen. I need to write a letter. Once you're done, please deliver it to Zhenjian Palace for me." "Hey!"

The fox ran out immediately. Lin Jue has already recorded several merits with Lord Yili. Lord Yili once made a promise to him, and now is the time to put it to use. Lin Jue took a pen and paper and wrote a very simple letter, asking Taoist Jiang to help tell Lord Yili that he was refining the elixir here and Lord Protector might obstruct him. If so, he would like him to help. When he was about to finish, he wanted to stop writing, but he didn't mind spending a few more moments and a few drops of ink, so he added two more sentences to thank her for giving him the painting and the mountain breeze. After writing it, he gave it to Fuyao. The fox flew away in a gust of wind. About an hour later, it created another gust of wind and returned to the quiet room. At this time, there was a letter in his mouth. When I opened it, I saw a piece of small calligraphy with flowers on it. "The lotus breeze brings fragrance, wishing you peace from afar. “I am busy with official business, so please forgive me for the late reply. “The True Lord replied: Lin Fangjue is a man of virtue and a pure practitioner. There is no reason for the gods to interfere with his practice. If the Holy Lord comes forward to stop him from refining the elixir, I will come to help him in person. "Fellow Taoist, don't worry. "There are many rumors about you in the capital now, and the court is fanning the flames. Fortunately, Lord Nan knows your character and can explain it to you, but you also need to be more careful. “I wrote this in a hurry, and I can’t say everything I want to say. "..." Lord Yili agreed. This was not what Lin Jue expected. Firstly, he had made a promise to me. Secondly, Emperor Yujian was now competing with Tianweng for the throne. The main opponents of the Three Southern Saints were the four True Lords under Tianweng. Lord Yili and True Lord Husheng were the leaders of the Three Southern Saints, and the other was ranked first among the Four Guardian Saints. If I were blocked by True Lord Husheng and could still achieve enlightenment, wouldn't that be equivalent to True Lord Husheng having one more opponent? What's more, Xuantian Temple and Fuqiu Temple are now on good terms. Moreover, because of the existence of Zhenjian Palace, Emperor Yujian and Lord Yili now have a place of worship in the capital. In this capital, Lord Yili may not be afraid of Lord Husheng. Lin Jue finally breathed a sigh of relief. He put away the letter and said goodbye. The colorful feathers were also put into the furnace. "Wow..." Suddenly, a loud and high-pitched phoenix cry was heard, reaching the sky. There was no longer a trace of flame in the furnace, nor was there any scattered spiritual charm. All the spiritual charm merged into one, like a dragon and a phoenix dancing, entangled endlessly. "Master Lin, today a eunuch from the palace came to visit you, but I stopped him and sent him back. "Master Lin, Lord Luo's army is less than 200 miles away from here. The emperor is already packing up and preparing to take his civil and military officials with him to patrol the Central Plains.

"The emperor appointed Hu Sihan, the civil servant who had defeated Shuxianwen outside the capital, as prime minister. He and the King of Yue stopped Luo Gong, and Luo Gong was now facing attacks from both the court and the King of Yue. “Master Lin, the eunuchs from the palace are here again. This time they brought along the Taoist priests from the Guanxing Palace and officials from the Ministry of Rites and Shrines. We stopped them. "Master, there was a demon causing trouble in the capital, and it happened today, but it was eliminated by Master Liu. "Master! Please borrow the Dragon God! "..." This went on for more than a hundred days. Be it the imperial court, the emperor, or the Astronomical Observatory, there have been more or less attempts, but with the presence of Wan Xinrong and others, as well as Long Bo Dou Bing, the junior sister and Fox, they have all been suppressed. Lin Jue was earnest in his understanding and practice. Even though the fog was thick and he could not see the direction, he did not stop. The elixir in the furnace was almost done. At this time, Wan Xinrong said: "Real person! It's bad!" "what happened again?" "I heard from the Star Observation Palace that the monster on Maple Mountain was labeled as an obscene shrine and evil worshiper because he privately built a temple and gathered incense and worship. He also harmed people and cheated people to use their oil to improve their cultivation. The gods in the sky want to get rid of him! Is that the old friend of the master who seems to be the real person?" Lin Jue suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. They actually chose here! So vicious! What a trick! Is this also done by the gods? Although there is nothing wrong with this action from the perspective of reason and heavenly law, there is no moral character left at all. Fortunately, Lin Jue was well prepared. "Where's my junior sister?" "Master Liu has already rushed over!" "There won't be only one divine general in heaven, so she alone is definitely not enough." Lin Jue made arrangements quickly, "Bring the Long Bo Dou Bing enshrined in the guest hall to her. In addition, I will write a letter immediately, please send it to Master Jiang of Zhenjian Palace for me." "Yes!" "Oh, and there's Nan Gong! I'll tell him the whole story and what to do in the letter. When you go to invite him, please be respectful on my behalf." Lin Jue said, "As for you, it won't be of much use if you go, so just stay here!" "clear." Wan Xinrong took the letter and left quickly. Lin Jue's face was heavy, and he was still sitting cross-legged there. This is a critical moment and there is absolutely no room for distraction. Wait until I finish refining this elixir... …… At this moment, dark clouds were gathering above Fengshan Mountain and the sound of drums was like thunder. "Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom..." The two gods stood on the clouds, looking down.

A dog-headed man in a flowery robe stood on the top of the mountain, looking up at the sky with his mouth slightly open. Although he didn't know why, he didn't seem surprised. "You bastards, you finally found me here..." "You don't run?" "I run? This is my territory! The ground is covered with my marks! I run? I'll run to your mother's kitchen and bite her ass!" "What a dog!" The god in the sky turned his head and glanced at the capital, pointing his sword: "Netherworld!" "Sui Su Su Su..." Hundreds of heavenly soldiers turned into streams of light and fell from the top of the dark clouds like meteorites. "My men! Come on!" The Taoist in flowery robe gritted his teeth and waved his sleeves. In an instant, the mountains seemed to be shaking. Twenty wolf-headed soldiers suddenly rushed out of his cave, followed by dozens of Yakshas who ran out of the cave with their backs bent, and behind them were hundreds of wolf-headed soldiers and generals. "Fuck!" A beam of white light shot down from the sky and pierced through the shoulder of a wolf-headed shield soldier. Another wolf-headed soldier drew his bow and shot an arrow into the sky, also shooting down a heavenly soldier. A mighty heavenly soldier descended from the sky, swept his spear across, and knocked a paper soldier away. Immediately, two more paper soldiers rushed up, surrounded him and started fighting. The Yaksha came running forward with a huge axe in his hand. He swung the axe with force while running and directly cut down a heavenly soldier. "It's just a clay chicken and a clay dog..." The angry thief general in the sky said, and gave an order to the side: "set fire." On the far left of the cloud, there were a dozen red-robed priests standing. The priests held fire bottles and simply tilted the mouths of the bottles downwards, and raging heavenly fire flowed out and poured down. "call……" A raging fire suddenly broke out in the forest. But I never expected that these soldiers were not afraid of fire at all. "what?" The general was a little surprised. "Change the water..."

On the right stood a dozen white-robed priests. The priests held water jars with some grass ears stuck in them. They dipped the grass ears in the water in the jars and sprinkled the water down. "Wow..." The water droplets in the air turned into bean-sized raindrops and fell down like a bucket. But this paper soldier would not get wet even when touched by water. "Huh? You have some skills! I'll let you live a little longer." The angry thief general took a golden whip from the side and was about to go down to the mortal world himself to put an end to the old dog. Just then, a figure came walking on the treetops. "Senior! I'm here to help you!" The person was dressed in Taoist robes, with long flowing hair, a whisk in one hand and a long sword in the other, and a golden bell hanging from her waist. She was none other than Fuqiu's junior sister. The golden whip raised by the god stopped again. (End of this chapter)
