Chapter 216 Tongtian is not in the 'Tao'The twenty-sixth day of the seventh lunar month. Late at night, in the square pavilion by the fish pond in the Lu family's backyard, lights were standing all around, illuminating two slender frosty silver figures. "thump!" Jiang Mo casually fed the bait, and waves splashed on the dim water surface, and the fish jumped. "Uncle Master, I can't practice anymore." “I can’t inherit it.” A voice revealing complex emotions came from the side. Lu Jin stared at the Tongtian Talisman between his fingers and sighed again and again. These past two days he hadn't had the slightest thought of claiming it for himself. Instead, he was considering whether or not to pass this unique skill back to the Shangqing Sect. For him, he simply could not accept the Tongtian Talisman that was tainted with the life of his old friend. Rather than a gift, it was more of a restraint. After taking the talisman paper from Mr. Lu, he felt a vague sense of discomfort and roughly understood Zheng Zibu's long-cherished wish.

"If you can't practice, don't practice, just leave it alone." Jiang Mo admired the moonlight reflected on the lake, feeling relaxed and happy, and asked casually: "Are you against it because of its name, or because of your friend's conspiracy behind it?" “Both.” Lu Jin hesitated and sighed. Since the battle in Southern Xinjiang, Wu Gensheng's memory has been refined by Jiang Mo. Yesterday at midnight, he wanted to explore his old friend's past from Wu Gensheng's perspective. After obtaining Jiang Mo's permission, he was able to glimpse some of his memories. Lu Jin thus learned that his old friend Zheng Zibu and Wu Gensheng had already known each other for several years and they had a pretty good relationship. It was not until his master Zuo Rutong passed away that a bloody battle broke out between the Sanyi Sect and Quanxing. Wu Gensheng intervened and appointed Zheng Zibu to admonish him. Then, at the sworn brotherhood banquet in Tongtian Valley, Zheng Zibu had a detailed talk with Wu Gensheng and learned the details of the grudges of the past. What he sought were sometimes for personal desires and sometimes for friendship, so when Zheng Zibu was comprehending the Ziyang Jade Disk in the deserted temple, what he obtained was the Tongtian Talisman, a kind of unparalleled skill that used talismans to achieve heavenly reach. However, Lu Jin had discussed the matter of "Tongtian" with his uncle several times. He was willing to firmly believe that there was no such thing as ascending to heaven in this world. The so-called Tongtian Talisman, in essence, is nothing more than a gorgeous and powerful martial art. You can learn all kinds of talismans as soon as you enter the threshold, and once you master them, you will gain permanent mastery. There is no need for any rituals or props, and you can use the talismans at will within the limits of your body's tolerance. After achieving great success, one can transcend the authority of ghosts and gods, have unimpeded access, make his words come true, and embezzle the power of heaven and earth. This is what Wu Gensheng saw in his memory, the conversation between him and Zheng Zibu about the "Tong Tian Lu". Since neither of them had practiced it in depth, they could only roughly guess the direction and could not be sure whether it was true. Human beings are creatures with complex emotions. The desire to help others and ourselves also has its own special soil for survival. Looking back at what Zheng Zibu did, Lu Jin just sighed with regret: "I don't believe in becoming an immortal, so why would I need the Tongtian talisman?" "If the 'reaching the heavens' mentioned by the predecessors refers to a state of freedom and unfetteredness, I may be able to reach it after a hundred years of hard training by following in the footsteps of my uncle-master." "What really makes me sad is that he was the last person to think of the premise that I should be honest with others, which is to be honest with myself. Now I can see myself clearly."

Lu Jin lowered his head. The bright moonlight was like frost, covering the clear water. He looked at his own blurry face with ripples, and revealed his inner thoughts: "I can't let go of his calculations towards me. Even though he had hopes for me, he brought trouble to my family for no reason. " "I can't convince myself to accept his transfer of hatred. I don't want to bear it, not at all." "Uncle Master, do you know?" "I'm not as sensible and well-behaved as you appear. I am also a human being with flaws, dissatisfaction, and selfishness." "Anyone who doesn't ask questions and uses the excuse of being nice is not the respect I need from the beginning to the end." Jiang Mo listened patiently, with a smile on his face from time to time. He was relieved and happy, and even felt honored that Lu Jin was willing to tell him these true thoughts, which indirectly proved that he, as an elder, was still qualified. "Look at how miserable our Jin'er is because of this trivial matter. I wonder what Senior Brother would think if he saw this? He would probably understand and comfort you." Jiang Mo patted Lu Jin's shoulder gently and encouraged him, "Whatever you want to do, just do it. Whether it's Tu Quanxing or Tu Wang and Lu's families, as long as you want to, do what you want and what's right." "With my uncle protecting you, even if the sky falls, I can still fix it with a slap." "Uncle Master, I am very grateful for your care." After Lu Jin poured out all the frustrations that had been accumulating in his heart, he felt much better. He then took the opportunity to say: "Also, I don't want to cultivate the origin of the Qi body anymore." "Although it is mysterious, I am not interested in it. I know that you recommended it on a whim after hearing about an embarrassing incident many years ago. However, I have thought it through." Facing Jiang Mo's gaze, Lu Jin said in a sonorous voice: "I want to defeat Brother Zhang once in an upright manner, without relying on any supernatural powers." "As you wish, Jin'er." Jiang Mo suddenly smiled. The disciple accepted by his senior brother was indeed extraordinary. It was not easy to have such courage. "I am very relieved that you have grown up" "In the future, if you and your fellow brothers work together, your sect will surely reach an unprecedented peak of prosperity." "Well, I will definitely live up to your expectations." The knot in Lu Jin's heart for several days was resolved at this moment. He broke free from the restraints and his mind improved further. "As for this Tongtian Scroll, whoever wants it can practice it. If you meet a good candidate in the future, I will teach him." "it is good." Jiang Mo grabbed the bait and threw it into the pond, feeling extremely happy. He is also a human being. In his youth, he went down the mountain to travel. Over 20 years have passed in a flash. He is either in seclusion or on the way to seclusion. He rarely interacts with the younger generation. Since returning to the sect, he has been personally training the disciples within the sect and watching them grow both mentally and physically. As an elder, he feels sincerely proud. "Uncle Master, my cultivation has improved a lot recently. I want to meet the demon head Quan Xing. What do you think?"

Lu Jin was inspired and was no longer bound by his friendship with Zheng Zibu. He just wanted to eliminate the evil and kill the monster for the hundreds of villagers who died in vain. "kill." "There is no need for any mercy towards these bastards." Jiang Mo immediately expressed his support and said with a smile: "If I can't kill them all, I'll come back next time. If I don't kill them one day, I'll give them another day. I'll kill them thoroughly, turn the world upside down, uphold justice, and leave my name in history. Isn't that a pleasure?" "A little bit of noble spirit can blow a thousand miles of wind. What the uncle-master said is very true!" Lu Jin seemed to be reborn, his spirits were high and his brows were full of joy. "Da da da" "Master, Master Jiang, you are here." A familiar voice with full energy came from behind him, and Qiao Yue stepped forward to report: "I just received news from an informant that Duanmu Ying, who possesses one of the Eight Wonders, is suspected to have been kidnapped by the Lu family. Master, Master Jiang, do you think we should take action?" "The Lu family?" Jiang Mo couldn't help but laugh: "They are the same as the Wang family. It's understandable that they covet the unique skills. I don't bother to pay attention to them. But if they want to protect the remnants and treat the agreement of my disciples as a joke, then let's go for a walk." "You want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you're dead." Upon hearing this, Qiao Yue clasped his fists and said, "Master Jiang, I understand what you mean. I will tell Lord Lu right away." "Well, it's better to tell me. I'll take Jin'er over there, and our Sanyi Sect can handle this matter. There's no need to bother the Lu family." "But the Lu family did the notarization, and the Lu family breached the contract. We have the right to hold them accountable." Qiao Yue frowned. He also guessed the Lu family's intention. "It's okay, I'll be there." Jiang Mo stood up, exchanged a few words with Guard Qiao, then led Lu Jin away on the wind, transforming into a streak that resembled the Milky Way, cutting through the dark sky and heading straight for the capital city where the Lu family was.
