The Earth Immortal Realm!
The four continents and four seas were vast and boundless. No one could say for sure how big the Earth Immortal Realm was. From the 33 levels of the Celestial Court to the 18 levels of the Netherworld, and even the illusory but real Four Extremes of Heaven and Earth. Even if the immortals had endless lives, they might not be able to travel through the entire Earth Immortal Realm.
Aparagodaniya, Little Swallow Mountain!
Green mountains and clear water. Little Swallow Mountain was a place with beautiful scenery. There were no demons or immortals lingering around. Other than some beasts and birds that had yet to gain intelligence, the entire Little Swallow Mountain could be called a paradise.
Little Swallow Mountain was located in Fangjia Country. Fangjia Country covered millions of miles. It was a country where mortals and Buddhist cultivators coexisted. Regardless of whether they were mortals or Buddhist cultivators, everyone worshipped Buddha devoutly and regarded Spirited Mountain as the highest sacred ground in their hearts.
Of course, Fangjia Country was only a medium-sized country in Aparagodaniya. One had to know that Aparagodaniya covered millions of miles and there were many countries coexisting within it. There were also places set up by the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas of Spirited Mountain. It could be said that the entire Aparagodaniya was the place of Spirited Mountain's Great Thunderclap Temple. It was also the birthplace of Buddhism.
Although Aparagodaniya was the birthplace of Buddhism, Taoism was even more ostracized, not to mention demons and ghosts that appeared in Aparagodaniya.
However, there were exceptions to everything. After all, there were always great demons living in Aparagodaniya. Not only did they cultivate demonic arts, but they also cultivated Buddhism. If they could attain enlightenment, they would become Bodhisattvas and Buddhas. Therefore, Spirited Mountain's Great Thunderclap Temple also turned a blind eye to these demons.
Of course, the great demons that could survive in the Aparagodānīya Continent were all people with profound cultivations. Some of them were even closely related to Mount Numinous in the west. Due to all sorts of complicated relationships, the Aparagodānīya Continent was able to develop steadily. Although there were occasional occurrences of demons eating humans, as long as it wasn't too excessive, the Great Thunderclap Temple of Mount Numinous would naturally ignore it.
Other than these Great Demons, the rest were the almighties from all over the Tongtian. For example, the Ancestor of the Earthly Immortals, Great Deity Zhen Yuan, whose dojo was located in the Aparagodānīya Continent, and Mahamayuri Kong Xuan, whose dojo was also located in the Aparagodānīya Continent.
Other than these familiar people, there were naturally some low-profile Buddhists. For example, Golden Cicada and the Battling Immortal Buddha. Although they did not set up dao arenas, they were all people with great mystiques and abilities. It was just that they had not appeared in the eyes of the people of the Three Realms for many years.
The Great Thunderclap Temple of the Western Spirit Mountain was founded by the Two Saints of the West. Naturally, there was no need to talk about its strength. However, other than the Great Thunderclap Temple, there were many other orthodoxies in the Aparagodaniya Continent that no one dared to provoke.
Mount Fangcun, Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars!
This was a name that very few people knew. Even in the Three Realms, there were not many people who knew the name of this orthodoxy. However, those who knew this place would feel reverence from the bottom of their hearts.
This was because there was a person in the Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars. This person's Daoist name was Subhuti, and he was known as Patriarch Subhuti!
Subhuti was a name that combined Buddhism and Daoism. He had the temperament of a Daoist and the thoughts of a Confucian. He was proficient in various mystiques of Daoism, Buddhism, and the various schools of thought. He was also the only Tongtian great mystique who cultivated all three religions.
He cultivated both Buddhism and Daoism and the various schools of thought. It could be said that there was nothing that Patriarch Subhuti did not know about in the world of cultivation. He was an extremely mysterious figure.
However, Patriarch Subhuti did not appear in the Three Realms and very few people knew of his existence. Even though endless time had passed and no matter what earth-shattering events had happened in the Three Realms, Patriarch Subhuti had never appeared in the eyes of the people of the Three Realms.
Whether it was the Dragon-Phoenix Tribulation, the Great Witch-Demon War, or even the Sages of the Great Apotheosized Tribulation, the Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars of Mount Fangcun had never been tainted by the karma of the outside world. Therefore, no one had ever seen Patriarch Subhuti in action. However, anyone who knew of Subhuti's existence knew that he was in the Sage-to-be Realm. However, it had always been a mystery as to how strong Subhuti was among the Sage-to-be.
The Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars of Mount Fangcun was a name that was as old as the heavens.
Perhaps the people of the Three Realms did not know of Patriarch Subhuti, but they knew of one of his disciples. This person was the Great Sage Equalling Heaven who had wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace. He was later known as the Battling Immortal Buddha.
However, very few people knew of this secret. Only a handful of people knew that the Battling Immortal Buddha was Subhuti's disciple. This was because Subhuti had once told the monkey that he was not allowed to mention his disciple to outsiders.
Subhuti had many disciples, but none of them claimed to be his disciple. Therefore, very few outsiders knew of his name. However, some mortals at the foot of Mount Fangcun knew that there was an old immortal in the mountain who could teach people how to cultivate immortality. From time to time, there would be mortals who sincerely went up the mountain to join the Cave of the Slanting Moon and Three Stars. This was also the only legend that was passed down outside.
Subhuti was a Sage-to-be. He did not fight or snatch. Firstly, he did not spread his orthodoxy. Secondly, he did not participate in the disputes of the Three Realms. He was an extremely mysterious figure among the Sage-to-be.
Aparagodānīya Continent, Little Swallow Mountain!
Green mountains rose up and down, and ancient pine trees were green and lush. A gentle breeze blew by, carrying with it the fragrance of plants and trees. There were also the sounds of birds chirping, causing the entire Little Swallow Mountain to become a paradise.
There was a valley, an ancient pond, and a thatched cottage. Other than that, there was nothing else.
Clang!
The sound of the zither was ethereal like the ripples of water. The melodious sound of the zither reverberated throughout the entire valley, causing the pond to ripple.
The sound of the zither did not seem to stop. It was like a heavenly melody from the Nine Heavens that swept away the worries of all living beings. Hundreds of birds perched on the branches and listened quietly. Countless ferocious beasts crept in the forest, unable to extricate themselves from the sound of the zither.
One person, one zither!
Man was a lonely man, and the zither was the Nine String Zither. The sound of the zither was coming from his hands. Every time he plucked the strings, the beautiful sound of the zither would ripple through the entire valley like the sound of spring water.
Ye Xuan was dressed in black, and his grey hair hung behind his head. A gust of wind blew, causing his hair to flutter in the wind. His jade-like fingers were strumming the zither strings, as if his entire body was immersed in the sound of his own zither.
Clang!
The sound of the zither stopped. Everything was quiet. The birds woke up from the sound of the zither. The beasts roared and woke up in the forest. However, all living beings had intelligence. Ye Xuan's zither sound seemed to have awakened their intelligence. The birds and beasts crept on the branches and forest, worshipping Ye Xuan like humans.
Swoosh!
The green leaves rustled. The birds flew out of the forest and the beasts ran away. Although they had just awakened their intelligence, they knew that they should not disturb the immortal in the valley too much. Thus, they dispersed.
