The monkey's patience was gradually worn away by the quiet time in the mountain.
He still didn't forget why he left Mount Huaguo and why he had traveled tens of thousands of miles to Fangcun Mountain and become a disciple of a famous teacher.
Immortality.
This was the most instinctive desire of living creatures, and it was also the problem in the monkey's heart.
In the past few years, although he had learned a lot of Dharma spells, gained the ability to ride on clouds and control Dharma treasures, and even caught up and became the disciple with the highest cultivation level among all the disciples after Huo Yun and Qing Shan, he was still a little dissatisfied.
His current cultivation level was really too slow.
One day, the monkey and several junior brothers were playing on the clouds in the back mountain. They were a little tired from playing. When they heard the bell in the mountain, they hurried back to do their evening homework.
Qing Shan and Huo Yun led their junior brothers and sisters to sit quietly in the main hall. Monkey Sun also sat in the corner, closed his eyes, and began to take a nap.
In the past few years, the monkey had really mastered the ability to fall asleep no matter what. After falling asleep, he could make no sound, did not snort, and did not turn over. He looked like he was meditating …
It could be said that he was quite extraordinary.
Unknowingly, the evening homework was over. Huo Yun and Qing Shan looked at the monkey sitting in the corner and still refused to leave. They walked over with their hands behind their backs.
"Junior Brother Sun? Ahem, Junior Brother Sun? "
"Ah … Yes, Senior Brother, has everyone gone back?" The monkey chuckled and stood up. "I just cultivated a lot and comprehended a lot. I'm going back to rest."
"Go." Qing Shan sighed with a smile. "Your comprehension is amazing. It has only been a few years, but you have already reached such a high cultivation level. Huo Yun and I can't say much about you. We only hope that you can always maintain this simple nature."
The monkey smiled embarrassedly. He blinked his monkey eyes and came over with a smile.
"Senior Brothers, can I ask about something?"
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't push and shove. If Master sees it, it will really be a disaster."
"It's alright. Master only talks about the Dao once or twice a month," said Monkey with a smile. "Senior Brothers previously said that there are many realms above immortals. Then, after becoming an immortal, will one be able to live forever?"
Qing Shan and Huo Yun looked at each other, then shook their heads and chuckled.
"Who said becoming an Immortal can lead to immortality?" Qing Shan said, "Of course, if your luck is good after you become an immortal, you will be able to enter the Heavenly Courts and become an immortal official. Then, you will be able to receive the care of the Heavenly Dao and extend your lifespan. After becoming an Immortal, your life will be less than ten thousand years. "
"Oh?" Sun Wukong blinked. "Then, how can one become immortal?"
Qing Shan said, "Let's go, let's talk outside. We shouldn't offend the ancestors."
Sun Wukong hurriedly followed. He hopped around Qing Shan and Huo Yun. He couldn't wait to find out more about immortality.
Qing began to talk about the realms after becoming an Immortal.
The true spirit became a true immortal, and the primordial spirit became a celestial immortal. The next realm was to have a firm foothold on the Dao that one cultivated, to be one with the Dao, and to be immortal.
Sun Wukong scratched his ears and cheeks when he heard that. "Senior Brother, Senior Brother, if this continues, how long will it take for me to achieve immortality?"
"According to your aptitude and comprehension, and Master's supreme technique, you might be able to achieve immortality in a few thousand years."
"A few thousand years …" Monkey widened his eyes and paced back and forth impatiently. "Wouldn't my descendants be dead? No, no! "
Qing Shan and Huo Yun looked at each other and smiled. "Why are you worried about this? The monkeys in the mountain have been passed down from generation to generation. They live forever. This is the foundation of the survival of living beings. "
"That won't do. If I become an Immortal, I will return to the mountain with monkeys who don't know me …"
Monkey was a little dejected. "Senior Brother, is there any faster way to achieve immortality?"
"There are, but most of them are not the right way," Huo Yun said in a low voice. "How about this? The day after tomorrow is the day of Master's sermon. After Master's sermon, you can ask him like this and see what he says."
"That's right. Huo Yun and I have low cultivation. We have just reached the Perfected Immortal Realm. There is still a long way to go before we become immortals."
Monkey scratched his head. "That's good too. Heh, I'm afraid that Master will scold me and say that I'm biting off more than I can chew. Wouldn't that be useless …"
Qing Shan sighed. "It's such a good thing to be scolded by Master."
"Senior Brother? Do you like to be scolded? "
"You little monkey who doesn't know how lucky you are." Qing Shan sighed with a smile. "Since we've come this far, let's go to a bar."
When Monkey heard that they were going to drink, he immediately drooled. He followed the two senior brothers into a small courtyard with a smile. Not long after, the fragrance of barbecued meat accompanied by the smell of fine wine in the mortal world drifted out, making the night more pleasant.
In the warm room, Yang Jian saw this scene with his divine senses and could not help but chuckle.
Huo Yun and Qing Shan were reliable. Next, he should think about how to improve this monkey's cultivation quickly and steadily.
Although Yang Jian was prepared, he was still worried that he could not teach this monkey well. After all, teaching a disciple was completely different from killing a Saint. The latter relied on fighting and killing, while the former was much more complicated.
Therefore, I'll ask Master …
Finally finding a reason to return to Kunlun Mountain to visit his master, Yang Jian did not delay. He rode a cloud out of Fangcun Mountain and flew north.
He returned to the Jade Spring Mountain first. The Jade Spring Mountain Array was still there, but the spiritual energy in the mountain had dissipated a lot. The lotus pond in front of the Golden Cloud Cave was flourishing, but the place was a little more quiet.
The immortals in the mountain were no longer there.
Beside the lotus pond, Yang Jian restored his appearance and stared at the Three-Lives Lotus for a while.
The lotus leaves swayed gently, as if they were saying something to Yang Jian. Yang Jian saw a mature lotus head. The lotus head split open, and a few streams of light flew towards Yang Jian. They were a few mature lotus seeds.
This was the Three-Lives Lotus expressing its gratitude to Yang Jian for planting it back then.
"Are you a little lonely here?" Yang Jian asked. Although the lotus flower had spirituality, it did not cultivate. It was only a type of Postnatal Spirit Root.
Yang Jian put away the lotus seeds and stood with his hands behind his back for a while. Then, he left Jade Spring Mountain and headed towards Kunlun.
Kunlun Mountain was still the same as before.
A few years ago, after the mighty figures of the Primordial World had interrogated the few "traitors of Grand Simplicity", there had been fewer and fewer battles in the Primordial World. Many old enemies had temporarily reconciled. Everything was to accumulate strength against powerful enemies.
Yang Jian did not disturb anyone. With his current status in Chanism, he could enter and leave anywhere he wanted. Anyway, no one would blame him.
It was still the Qilin Cliff, and it was still the same cave.
However, the last time Yang Jian came to see Yun Xiao, he had personally opened the restrictions that he had set up.
Today, Yang Jian had come to see his master. The restrictions at the entrance of the cave were not strong, but he could not let his master take half a step out of the cave.
Standing at the entrance of the cave, Yang Jian wanted to shout inside. However, he was worried that his master was in seclusion and that he would disturb him if he made a sound. Therefore, he stood there and waited quietly.
He waited for half the night.
"Is there something you can't figure out?" Yuding Zhenren's voice sounded from the cave, causing Yang Jian to perk up.
Yang Jian hurriedly said, "Master, I have been teaching the spirit embryo that was born in response to the Great Tribulation to cultivate in recent years. I want to teach him the Eight-Nine Arcane Art, the 72 Transformations, and various mystical abilities for fighting. However, I don't know how to start. Master, you know that when I cultivated the Eight-Nine Arcane Art back then, I had to explore and break through … "
He did not know when he had become so … Close? Flat Bridge Lun Yue and Lv Chunlian? Dumpling Crisp? Shengxing?
"I see." Yuding Zhenren strolled out of the cave and smiled at Yang Jian. He sat cross-legged in the restrictions at the entrance of the cave.
Yuding Zhenren said, "I have already sorted out the true cultivation path of the Eight-Nine Arcane Art based on your cultivation back then. Now that you, Xuanqi, are the guide, the spirit embryo must be favored by the heaven and earth. It will be easy to guide him to cultivate. Listen carefully. "
"Yes." Yang Jian sat down and took out a jade talisman. Every time Yuding Zhenren said something, Yang Jian would engrave the words into the jade talisman.
Gradually, the eastern sky turned bright. Yuding Zhenren had finished explaining the first seven stages of the Eight-Nine Arcane Art.
"The peak of the eighth realm should be the Saint realm," Yuding Zhenren said. "As long as you enter the Saint realm, you will step into the ninth stage of the Eight-Nine Arcane Art. This section of the cultivation technique has been destroyed. You can only rely on yourself to explore."
Yang Jian nodded solemnly. At that moment, he realized that Yuding Zhenren had two strands of white hair at his temples.
"Master … If you're not used to living here, let's go back to Jade Spring Mountain."
Yuding smiled and looked at Yang Jian. He said calmly, "I'm repenting for my sins. I can't leave this place. You don't have to worry. The obsession in my heart has been broken. The original bottleneck has also shown signs of loosening. Everything is good now. "
If everything was good, why did his temples turn white?
"Master." Yang Jian was about to speak when Yuding Zhenren raised his hand to stop him.
Yuding asked again, "How's your cultivation recently?"
"It's still the same. I already know how to become a Saint with the Invincible Golden Body Art. The progress of the Eight-Nine Arcane Art is a little slow." Yang Jian shrugged. "Anyway, I feel that the supreme expert will definitely not wait for me to become a Saint before attacking. He will probably appear before I become a Saint."
"Yes, you're indeed worthy of their fear." Yuding's eyes were filled with gratification and yearning.
"It's just that after a long time, this disciple also feels a little tired. I always wonder if there's some truth that we can't see." Yang Jian's gaze was a little distant. "I always feel that those supreme powerhouses seem to have some sort of purpose. These purposes, we 'ants' have never understood."
Yuding nodded slowly. "What living beings see is what they want. The pursuit of living beings is all because of their own flaws. Actually, there's something that can't be changed. "
"What?"
Yuding smiled and said, "Those supreme experts should have been ordinary living beings in the past. However, they walked to the peak of the Great Dao step by step and broke through the Great Dao to step into a new Dao Realm."
Yang Jian could not help but be speechless …
"Master." Yang Jian smiled bitterly. "If you could become a Saint before an Eon, there might not be any calamities in the Primordial World."
"Time is fate. The Great Dao is the cause of it."
Yuding stood up. Yang Jian hurriedly stood up as well. The master and disciple faced each other through the restrictions of the cave.
Yang Jian thought of something and asked, "Master, I don't need that small cauldron to protect myself anymore. Bring it over another day."
Yuding shook his head. "There's no need. Just keep it. That's just an obstacle to my Dao. If I want to become a Saint, I have to be fearless and fearless. I have to advance courageously. That's how the Essence Soul Dao cultivates. The backlash of the Great Dao is the training of the Great Dao. Only by walking step by step can I control the Great Dao. "
Yang Jian was speechless. His eyes were filled with shock.
Yang Jian could inexplicably sense Du Bi's aura from his master …
"Go back."
"Yes, I'll take my leave."
Yang Jian bowed. Yuding turned around and returned to the cave, leaving only a few instructions in Yang Jian's ears.
No one to rely on, no worries, no fear, and advance courageously …
Is Master … going to break through to the Saint realm again?
