Gao Chengtu's judgment was spot on. Two days later, a disciple from the Duliang Sect came to invite Master and disciple for a meeting.
Since it was a friendly invitation, Gao Chengtu gladly accepted.
A cultivator by the name of Fu Mengdan was waiting for the two of them at the same place from many days ago. However, this time, a banquet was set up. This person said that he came from the headquarters of Daliang Sect, and he was ordered by the sect to ask the two of them some questions.
Fu Mengdan invited them to the banquet, and after a few rounds of toasting, he asked, "Fellow Daoist Gao, your aura is vigorous and vigorous, and your life force is overflowing. It seems that you have cultivated for less than 500 years?"
Gao Chengtu answered truthfully, "Yes."
Fu Mengdan said, "Then may I ask if the Daoist magic of the place you came from has changed?"
Gao Chengtu replied, "It was the same as where you came from. It was severed a long time ago. According to what I've heard, an almighty being from the Realm said that it was the same for all the Heavens and the Myriad Realms. There are no exceptions."
"So that's how it is …." Fu Mengdan's expression became somewhat complicated. After a moment of silence, he asked the key question. "The Daoist magic of the Realm has been severed for more than a thousand years. Fellow Daoist, you've only cultivated for a few hundred years. Where did you get your magic power from?
"More than a thousand years?"
Gao Chengtu didn't think that he had cultivated for more than a few hundred years. However, he knew that perhaps the flow of time in the Myriad Realms was different, or perhaps it was because he had passed through the Realm Passes several times. Based on his abilities, he couldn't figure it out, so there was no need to think too much about it.
He said, "I am from the Mountain and Sea Realm. After the Daoist magic of the Realm was severed, a stone stele descended from the Heavens to bestow upon me superior magic. Almighty beings from the various sects established new magic. By the time I left, I knew that there were more than ten Daoist magic that could be passed on."
Fu Mengdan was a bit surprised, and then excited. "There are so many Daoist magic?"
It was no wonder that he reacted this way. After the Duliang Sect's Daoist magic was severed, the disciples could only rely on medicinal pills to forcibly increase their magic power. They had long since fallen into the predicament of having no successor. Suddenly hearing that there were so many Daoist magic in the Mountain and Sea Realm was like seeing a bright future.
"In that case, Fellow Daoist," he said, looking Gao Chengtu in the eye, "how do I get to the Mountain and Sea Realm?"
At this time, Gao Chengtu asked, "Does Fellow Daoist know about the Inner World?"
Fu Mengdan asked curiously, "I have never heard of it. Where is it?"
Gao Chengtu knew that since this person was not in the Inner World, then perhaps the realm he was in should not be among the four Yuan Zun's subordinates. So he explained a little, saying that it was a realm created by a powerful person. If a cultivator could enter it, he could be protected by the powerful person and prolong his life.
Fu Mengdan was even more shocked. He had never imagined that there would be a place like this. What kind of grandeur was this? What kind of divine ability was this? In the blink of an eye, his image of the Mountain and Sea Realm rose to a whole new level. He rose to his feet, bowed deeply, and then said, "Fellow Daoist, could you tell us how to get to the Mountain and Sea Realm? The Great Liang Sect will definitely reward you handsomely!"
Gao Chengtu hurriedly stood up. He shook his head and said, "You're being too serious. I came out to seek Dao with the intention of never returning. Now, I don't know how to return, or else I wouldn't have come here."
When Fu Mengdan heard this, he sighed.
He didn't doubt Gao Chengtu's words. The three Realm Gates could only be used to leave, but not to return. In the past, communication between the Three Realms had mostly relied on the Two Realms Dial, which had been passed down from the Realm Gates. If it weren't for that, they wouldn't have been able to trick people from the Immortal Kingdoms of the other two realms into coming here, and then wipe them out in one fell swoop.
He thought for a moment, then said, "Fellow Daoist, do you think it's possible to use the Realm Gate to return to the Mountain and Sea Realm?"
Gao Chengtu thought about it seriously, then said, "That's hard to say."
Fu Mengdan couldn't help but sigh. However, he had already decided that no matter how much effort it would take, he would find the place where the Earthly Treasures Kingdom used to be. He bowed again, then said, "I have another presumptuous request."
Gao Chengtu could roughly guess what he wanted to say. "Fellow Daoist, please speak."
Fu Mengdan said sincerely, "Fellow Daoist, would you be willing to impart your Daoist techniques to us? If Fellow Daoist agrees, my Dou Liang Sect will treat you as the sect's teacher. "
Gao Chengtu actually had the same idea, but things that were too easy to obtain wouldn't be valued too much. After all, the Dou Liang Sect was different from those who didn't cultivate in the mortal world. Even if they didn't have the Daoist techniques, they could still manage. Thus, he pretended to be hesitant, and only reluctantly agreed after Fu Mengdan asked him several times.
After the banquet, Fu Mengdan seemed to be afraid that he would go back on his word, so he signed a contract with him on the spot. The next day, he sent over a hundred people to cultivate with him.
Gao Chengtu didn't say much, and without holding back, he imparted everything he knew.
In fact, because these disciples belonged to the Dou Liang Sect, even if they cultivated Daoist techniques, they couldn't be considered as his disciples. However, he didn't care about such things. In fact, he hoped that some of them would have extraordinary latent talent for Daoist techniques. That way, he would have even more people to exchange Daoist techniques with.
The techniques he imparted were quickly organized into a bundle of bamboo slips, which were then delivered to a white-robed cultivator. His name was Guan Cheng, and he was one of the two people with the highest cultivation base in the Dou Liang Sect. He had the ability to pierce through the void and travel to the Outer Heavens, which was why everyone in the sect referred to him as the Grand Dharma Lord.
After reading through the bamboo slips, he looked down at the emissary and said, "This Daoist magic is very profound, and I can't see through it. The person who created it must have magical power far above mine."
The emissary's heart tightened. "In that case..." he said, "in the opinion of the Grand Dharma Lord, should we continue to search for the Mountain and Sea Realm?
The Dou Liang Sect had exterminated many powers in the past, and the three great Immortal Kingdoms were one of them. If someone was more powerful than them, would they attack them?
"Why not?" Guan Cheng said. "You don't need to worry too much," he said. "We've been attacking the sects from the Outer Heavens for the sake of seeking the Dao. If it weren't for the rumors that there are legacies left behind by ancient almighty beings, why would we need to attack them? On the other hand, if we can enter the inner world that Fellow Daoist Gao spoke of, then even if we have to serve that person, as long as we can ensure the continuation of the sect, and the continuation of the Dao, it will all be worth it. "
The emissary looked at the bamboo slips, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "But, Grand Dharma Lord, if all of the disciples of the later generation learn this Daoist magic, doesn't that mean that the Dou Liang Sect will no longer have a legacy?"
Guan Cheng shook his head. "Daoist magic is nothing more than a ladder leading to the Great Dao. If a superior Daoist magic was placed in front of you, and clearly stated that it could lead you to the Great Dao, would you set it aside and not cultivate it?"
The emissary was speechless.
Guan Cheng flicked his sleeve and said solemnly, "There is no time for us to think about things that are too far in the future. If there is a Daoist magic to guide us, then we should follow it. Going against the flow and stubbornly sticking to the rules is a path to death."
Gao Chengtu was here to teach the Daoist magic, but he didn't expect that he would actually stay here for fifty years.
After fifty years, almost all of the later generation of the Dou Liang Sect had received his teachings, especially one called Shu Qing, whose aptitude was unprecedented. In just a few decades of cultivation, his cultivation had actually caught up to Gao Chengtu's, and he had asked Gao Chengtu several times to teach him the subsequent Daoist magic.
Gao Chengtu told him, "I told you long ago that I have already told you everything I know. Next, it is up to you to comprehend it yourself."
Shu Qing said, "But Teacher Gao, disciple still feels that something is missing?"
Gao Chengtu said, "I have thought about it. Perhaps this is because you have not personally seen the Dharma Stele."
Shu Qing had also heard about the Dharma Stele that descended from the sky, and he couldn't help but ask, "What is different about this place?"
Gao Chengtu said, "I've told you before that the first method I practiced was seen from a tablet. However, only those who are fated will be able to see it. As for what you've learned, it was through my mouth. Perhaps there's something else on the tablet that I've seen, but I can't say. That's why you feel that there's something missing."
Shu Qing asked, "Could it be that this Dharma Stele can only be found in the Mountain and Sea Realm?"
Gao Chengtu said, "According to what I know, there is more than one such Dharma Stele. They are scattered throughout the Heavens, but it is difficult for those who are not fated to find them."
Shu Qing said with disappointment, "In that case, disciple is not fated to see it?"
Gao Chengtu said with a smile, "That is …"
Before he could finish speaking, the sky suddenly darkened. He couldn't help but look up and saw beams of spiritual light and heavenly fire tearing through the sky, falling straight down to the ground. He was shocked and stood up to look up. He felt that this scene was somewhat familiar, and he couldn't help but have a thought that even he didn't dare to believe.
After Yuan Mei escaped by a fluke, he had originally planned to retract his aura and go back to sleep. However, Ji Zhuang's Weili repeatedly swept through the worlds, and it seemed like he would not give up. Yuan Mei didn't dare to do that, and could only wander around the places where the magic power fluctuations were weak, and travel back and forth between the worlds.
However, when he was moving towards one of the worlds, he accidentally bumped into a strange magic power. It was hard to say whether he bumped into it by accident, or if the magic power was waiting for him there.
When his magic power touched it, they fused together, and he learned countless principles. Without any reason, he learned the method to unravel the True Pass, and he also learned a place where the Good Fortune Fragment might exist.
Not only was he not happy, but he was terrified.
Although his temperament wasn't up to standard, it didn't mean that he was really muddle-headed. He understood that this thing wouldn't appear in front of him for no reason, and it was such a coincidence. This must have been deliberately sent by someone.
He thought about the few parties fighting in the Void, and the person who sent this magic power obviously wanted him to improve his cultivation to stir up more trouble.
His expression instantly became uncertain. From the bottom of his heart, he naturally hoped that his cultivation could improve greatly. If he reached the second realm, he might be able to make Jizhuang Daoren fear him like Zhang Yan.
However, he also knew that the person who sent these things wanted him to do so. At this moment, he didn't want to fulfill the wish of the mastermind, but it was difficult for him to give up this opportunity to improve his strength.
After hesitating for a while, he still made a decision. The current situation was dangerous, and he was facing the threat of Ji Zhuang. His own strength was the foundation, so why wouldn't he accept this thing that was sent to him?
No matter what the mastermind wanted to do, as long as he had enough strength to deal with it, what was there to be afraid of?
With these thoughts, he decided to look for the Good Fortune Fragment. If it really existed, he would swallow it first, and then think about other things. Thus, with a change of heart, he searched for the realm where the Good Fortune Fragment might exist.
