www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Catalog of Destruction!
Luojing is located on the banks of the Luo River, in the middle of the plain. It is the largest city in the world. The city is square in shape, with nine horizontal and nine vertical roads dividing the entire city into squares of varying sizes. There are no less than a million people making a living here.
Shi Xuan took the enchanted flag, dressed as a wandering Taoist priest, and walked through the bustling crowd on Zhuque Street. He has been in Luojing for seven or eight days. These days, he has been asking around for the location of Huilong Temple. Who knows that this Taoist temple is not famous and no one knows about it.
In the end, Shi Xuan sneaked into the Yamen of Luojing Mansion, looked through the temple directory, and asked the Ji Nian Secretary Office who was in charge of this matter. Only then did he find the location of Longguan, which turned out to be in the most remote corner of the west of the city.
As we turned a corner, the crowds in front of us gradually became sparse. When we reached Anlefang, we could only see children playing in twos and threes on the road. The surrounding buildings were dilapidated and had not been repaired for a long time. At first glance, it looked like a place where poor people lived together. .
There are very few outsiders here. As soon as Shi Xuan entered the workshop, children followed him sparsely, laughing and joking, as if they were watching the fun.
Huilong Temple is in the northernmost part of Anlefang, and it is also the least populated place. There is not a single house around for several hundred meters, and there is only a dilapidated Taoist temple standing there alone.
When Shi Xuan saw Huilongguan, he almost couldn't believe his eyes. It was too shabby. It may have not been repaired for decades, and some of the roofs of the houses were even damaged.
Walking to the door of the Taoist temple, looking at the door that seemed to fall down if pushed, Shi Xuan gently knocked three times, and then three more times. Unexpectedly, no one answered the door for a while, so Shi Xuan had to knock again. I knocked hard several times and waited for a while, but no one came to open the door.
Shi Xuan had no choice but to mobilize his inner energy and started knocking. The door was swaying and about to fall down. At this time, a clear and lazy voice came from the Taoist temple: "Who is this? It’s broad daylight, why bother knocking on the door?”
With a burst of slow footsteps, the door in front of him was finally pulled open before it fell. What appeared in front of Shi Xuan was a delicate and handsome Taoist boy. He frowned and shouted to Shi Xuan: "Come on, there's no one you're looking for here."
"Pindao is here to find Taoist Master Piequanzi." Seeing this, Shi Xuan had no choice but to explain his purpose directly.
Hearing Shi Xuan's reply, the beautiful Taoist boy opened his eyes, which were still a little sleepy. He looked at Shi Xuan up and down, and finally pulled out a perfunctory smile at the corner of his mouth: "I I wonder when that old Taoist priest would fall in love with someone like you, but it seems that because of that incident, since you know his name, come in, he is reading scriptures in the quiet room."
Shi Xuan didn't understand what this Taoist boy meant, but since he was allowed in, he should seize the opportunity.
Following Taotong and walking in, Shi Xuan tried every means to get words out of him, but Taotong was very tight-lipped. Besides yawning all the time, Shi Xuan didn't even tell Shi Xuan his name.
When he walked to a dilapidated room, the Taoist boy said, "This is the quiet room. Come in with me." After saying that, he didn't knock on the door, just pushed it open and walked in. Shi Xuan had to follow Walk behind you.
The quiet room is very empty, with only a futon and a desk. Sitting on the futon was a thirty-year-old Taoist priest in black clothes and a high crown. He was exactly the same as Chu Yuyan described. He had an ordinary face and a mustache, which made him look a little wretched. But based on his ability that his appearance has not changed for decades, he far surpasses Shi Xuan.
The Taoist priest was sitting on the futon. The scripture in his hand almost fell to the ground. His eyes were looking at the scripture, but they were tightly closed. He moved his head little by little, and there was something suspicious like saliva at the corner of his mouth.
The Taoist boy walked up to him and stamped his feet. He immediately straightened his body, straightened his head, and woke up. He stared blankly at the Taoist boy. The Taoist boy said flatly and disrespectfully: "You have a guest." He turned around and walked away without looking back.
The Taoist priest touched his mouth and murmured to himself: "I'm old, I'm old. The Taoist master has reached the age where he can fall asleep even while reading scriptures." Then he raised his head and looked at Shi Xuan with sleepy eyes. : "Are you looking for Master Dao?"
"Your honor is Taoist Master Piequanzi, junior Shi Xuan." Shi Xuan still answered respectfully.
"It's Master Dao. Alas, it's a pity that he's not a beautiful boy." Pirates Quanzi clicked his tongue with regret. Then he pointed to the ground, "Sit down, what do you want from Master Dao? Master Dao doesn't remember that he owes you any love, nor does he owe you money."
Shi Xuan didn't mind it, he sat cross-legged on the ground and said directly: "Does the Taoist still remember the Fire Spirit Pearl?"
"Hey, are you that girl's concubine? No, judging by his age, he could be her son. Well, Mr. Dao can sit upright and does owe her a chance. Just tell her what you want." Duanquanzi rubbed his hazy sleepy eyes.
Shi Xuan doesn't want to just take advantage of Chu Yuyan's opportunity: "This junior is determined to visit the Taoist sect. I heard that Mrs. Yuyan mentioned that there is a Taoist sect here, so I came here not to ask for this opportunity for her. ”
"Exalted Master, the Taoist Master is not very good." Pirates Quanzi said a joke that was not funny, and then complained in a low voice: "That old fool of the head brother, as for sending the Taoist Master to this stupid place, Are there many troublesome places?" After complaining, he continued: "Actually, you don't have to look around. As long as you break through to the Qi Entrainment stage, you will naturally understand where the Taoist door is."
"What are you talking about?" Shi Xuan felt a little excited when he saw that Dian Quanzi really knew something.
Duanquanzi stretched out and moved his neck before replying lazily: "That's not all. At the end of ancient times, several golden immortals in this big world led their disciples to a great battle. In the field, two fell, and the remaining one finally took that step, and then left here to create a big world to prove his own way. But this big world is miserable, how powerful the Golden Immortal War is, tsk tsk. , Master Dao can't imagine it now, but at least it destroyed the most prosperous world of immortality in ancient times. I don't know how many immortals who were above the soul did not escape, and they all fell. I said, you kid didn't even pour a cup for Master Dao. Tea, Master Dao was very thirsty even in ancient times."
Shi Xuan was sweating slightly and hurriedly went out to look for hot water and tea. However, Huilongguan was covered with dust everywhere and there was nothing. Shi Xuan couldn't find it when he looked for the Taoist boy, so he had to fetch water from the well himself and boil a pot in the kitchen. Hot water, I took the boiled water back to the quiet room.
Duan Quanzi didn’t take it too seriously. He drank half of the water and continued: “Fortunately, the Tongtian Lingbao Shenxiao Palace left by Taoist Yu Yu from ancient times suppressed the vitality of the riot and left a tenth of it. The large world is still intact. The ancient Golden Immortal battlefield and the ruined Immortal Realm are full of yellow sand, storms, space cracks, etc. The Shenxiao Palace is isolated to prevent expansion while sinking. Sleep restores strength. This is the land of Middle Earth."
"But what does this have to do with the Qi Entrainment Period?" Shi Xuan asked doubtfully.
Duanquanzi curled his lips, as if he felt uncomfortable sitting, moved the futon back, and then leaned half against the wall: "This big world has been so badly destroyed. The natural vitality has passed away, and all kinds of elixirs, There are not many materials left. The remaining practitioners are living within their means and no longer have the grandeur of the practice world in ancient times. Especially in this Middle-earth, there are basically no big sects because one is close to the Western Wilderness, which is the ancient times. In the world of cultivating immortals, vitality is the rarest. Secondly, Shenxiao Palace has regained its strength here, and the remaining vitality has been occupied by it."
"So?" Shi Xuan seemed to understand a little bit.
"So as long as someone breaks through the Qi-Entraining Stage and can attract the vitality of heaven and earth, they will be moved out of the Middle-earth by Shenxiao Palace. However, it is really rare to be able to break through to the Qi-Entraining Stage in such a poor Middle-earth. If he is not too old and his body and soul are not exhausted, all the major sects are vying for him. Therefore, he discussed with Shenxiao Palace. The place to be moved is fixed, and all the major sects will Someone is watching over there." Duanquanzi drank the rest of the water in one gulp and narrowed his eyes in comfort.
"So that's it. I said that so many masters who have broken through to the qi-entraining stage have disappeared." Shi Xuan suddenly realized, and then asked: "Then this vitality cannot be restored?"
"If there is still the Golden Immortal Dao Ancestor, he can adjust his vitality and restore his old outlook in more than a hundred years at most. Unfortunately, since then, there has never been a Golden Immortal Dao Ancestor in this big world. If he hadn't taken into account the Peak of Tongtian Lingbao In the Shenxiao Palace, many big worlds have already occupied this place." Dioquanzi yawned, and then continued: "However, after hundreds of thousands of years of recovery, the cultivation world outside the Western Wilderness and Middle Earth has recovered. It can be seen. And the hundreds of thousands of miles outside Xihuang have almost stabilized, and at least a few market towns and cities have been built with formation protection."
"Are there other big worlds?" Shi Xuan was curious.
Duanquanzi seemed to think of something, and sighed a little: "All the worlds in the heavens, billions of worlds are not a joke. There are billions of worlds with practitioners. Look at the starry sky, those that are moving are The stationary stars attached to our world are the projections of the nearby world. For example, the Big Dipper is actually the projection of the Big Dipper."
"Okay, do you really want to go to the spiritual world?" Dianquanzi withdrew his eyes, changed his wretched and lazy look, and asked with a serious expression.
"Yes, the juniors need guidance and exchanges with others. If they stay in Middle-earth, it will take who knows how many years to break through to the entrainment stage." Shi Xuan originally wanted to ask why there are twenty-seven big worlds. The one who projected particularly brightly could only restrain his mind and answer solemnly.
Duan Quanzi smiled: "It's a pity that you are not a beautiful young man, otherwise the Taoist master would have accepted you as his disciple."
Then he immediately changed his face and asked solemnly: "Have you thought about it? With your cultivation, in this land of Middle-earth, you can get the wind and the rain, and you can have both glory and wealth. , and you can enjoy the envious and respectful eyes of others. Maybe one day there will be a beautiful girl lying on the ground, crying and begging you to accept her as your disciple, and even the people around you will be respectful to her. "Chang, Xiangchang" shouted. Compared with others, you are superior to others. Judging from your expression, you must have enjoyed it, right?"
Shi Xuan remembered that he had been looked at with admiration and awe before, so he could only answer honestly: "Yes."
Duanquanzi continued to make a face: "Do you know that in the world of cultivation, there are countless people who have better cultivation than you? Moreover, in the world of cultivation now, due to the strict recruitment of disciples and the scarcity of resources, a lot of people have formed. Family, so there will be people who are better than you in talent and cultivation speed, there will be people who are not as good as you in everything but can enjoy many resources, so their cultivation will leave you far away, there will be people who are useless but have a strong backing and therefore look down on you, you In the spiritual world, you are just a pawn! You are a low-level disciple who is looked down upon by most people! You may die in some inexplicable fight."
After taking a breath, Duanquanzi finally asked solemnly but calmly: "Even so, do you still want to go to the spiritual world?"
————Shock, why are so many books missing from the one in front of me?
