Chapter 228: Apprenticeship
The Imperial Palace is the center of power of the Divine Court. All the monks of the Divine Court who have survived the Great Thunder Tribulation have residences in the Imperial Palace. It can be said that almost all the powerful men of the Divine Court are gathered here, and their status is naturally respected beyond words.
Because Hongjun had given instructions in advance, Fengyun Shang was sent directly to Hongjun's palace by a group of guards when he arrived at the gate of the imperial palace. Fengyun Shang waited quietly in front of Hongjun's palace. Inside the imperial palace, he could only
If the activities near Hongjun Palace exceed this range, there is a risk of being killed casually.
"But little friend Yun Shang?" Feng Yun Shang didn't wait too long, and an old Taoist opened the door of the palace and walked out. He had white hair and white beard, and was wearing a coarse linen robe. Although there were a few wrinkles on his face, they were vaguely visible.
You can clearly see that the old man was a handsome man when he was young.
"Yun Shang has met the Taoist Master." Feng Yun Shang leaned forward and said. Since he was here to become a disciple, Duan Ling told Feng Yun Shang everything he knew about Hongjun, and among them was this old Taoist named Li Er.
The three disciples of Hongjun are Li Er, the old Taoist in front of him, who cultivates the Tao of Humanity; the second disciple, Taoist Yuanshi, who cultivates the Tao of Interpretation; and the third disciple, Taoist Tongtian, who cultivates the Tao of Interception. The second and third disciples
They are all the feudal officials of Shenting, and they are stationed outside on weekdays. Only the old Taoist Li Er has been accompanying Hongjun for a long time.
"There is no need to see anyone outside, come in, Master is already waiting." Li Er invited Feng Yun Shang into the palace with a smile on his face, walked deep into the palace, and said to Feng Yun Shang: "Master will give you a total of
Arrange three tests and pass them before you can become a disciple."
Li Er brought Feng Yun Shang to a middle-aged man and said to him: "This is my disciple. Walking through that door without his blocking is the first test for you."
Fengyun Shang leaned forward and said, "I have met Master Xuandu."
The man in front of him is Li Er's only disciple, Master Xuandu. It is said that his cultivation strength is also in the realm of Daluo. He is an abandoned baby brought back by Li Er from his travels. He has no name and no surname. He later guarded it for a long time after he became successful in cultivation.
Xuandu City, so he got the title of Xuandu Archmage.
"You're welcome. I might as well call you uncle in the future." Archmage Xuandu stepped back half a step, without receiving Feng Yun Shang's courtesy. He placed a pagoda on his head, stepped on a black and white picture of yin and yang fish, and said with a smile: "I
I won’t take action personally, as long as you can block the power of these two magic weapons, you will be considered qualified.”
Fengyun Shang promised, not daring to look down upon him at all. The name of the pagoda is Xuanhuang Pagoda, and the picture is called Tai Chi Diagram. They are both famous magic weapons of the old Taoist Li Er, but they only borrowed them from Master Xuandu because he lived in seclusion for many years.
Master Xuandu smiled, and the Tai Chi Diagram under his feet suddenly expanded, drawing Feng Yun Shang in. Feng Yun Shang felt like he was walking on a swamp, with a huge suction pulling him under his feet. The Xuanhuang Tower above his head shook slightly, and he hung down.
The slightest breath fell, and the oppressed Fengyun Shang couldn't breathe.
Fengyun Shang walked forward with difficulty, knowing clearly in his heart that the existence of Xuandu Archmage was not to stimulate the power of the two magic weapons, but to suppress the power of the two magic weapons. Otherwise, just a little power emitted by the two magic weapons could make him
Fengyun Shang's soul was shattered.
The golden three realms he carried were released, and Fengyun Shang stepped on the three realms, isolating the suction of the Tai Chi Diagram, and summoned the five elements sword energy to form the five elements world realm, blocking the pressure of the Xuanhuang Tower. The divine power in his body disappeared like a flood.
, soon there was not a drop left, and at this time Fengyun Shang was still more than ten steps away from the door.
Archmage Xuandu took a step forward involuntarily and was on full alert. Without his divine power, Fengyun Shang was extremely fragile and might be crushed in the next step. Archmage Xuandu needed timely rescue. In fact, the first assessment
The really difficult part is in these ten steps, which tests Feng Yun Shang's perseverance.
After three steps, Fengyun Shang's physical strength was also exhausted. The full screen of willpower was struggling to support him. It took several minutes to accumulate enough strength to take a step. After a long time, Fengyun Shang finally arrived in front of the door. He leaned against the door and breathed heavily for a long time.
Then he opened the door and walked inside.
The old Taoist Li Er showed a smile and praised, "Good."
Hongjun also knew that his teaching methods were very harsh, so he tested his perseverance at the first level and eliminated those with weak minds.
"This is the second level. I'm a poor Taoist Yuanshi. You can rest for a while." Taoist Yuanshi's white hair is parted in the middle. He wears a jade clear lotus crown on his head and a jade-like robe that resembles a neon dress. Compared with Li Er's coarse linen clothes, he is not as luxurious as him.
"This pool is called Chengtang Pool. It has the effect of strengthening muscles and bones. Children can soak in it for a while or two."
Fengyun Shang quickly thanked him and lay down in the hot spring pool as he was told. The water was warm and he felt as comfortable as if there were thousands of little hands massaging him. Fengyun Shang felt a little bit, and his body was getting stronger at a rapid speed, so he quickly crossed his legs.
Sit down, turn to breathing internally, and practice with concentration.
It was not until the divine power in his body was restored that Yuanshi Taoist raised his hand to grab Fengyun Shang from Chi, and said with a smile: "My dear friend, the master is still waiting, so it's better to take the test first."
Fengyun Shang respectfully said yes.
"Senior brother tests your perseverance, and Pindao tests your true heart." The middle-aged Taoist Yuanshi showed a slight smile on his face, and said: "Pindao is just an incarnation here, and it will dissipate after casting the divine court. If little friends can
After passing the test, just open the door and go to the next level. If you fall into it, senior brother will naturally come and take you away later."
After Yuanshi Taoist finished speaking, a happy cloud came out from his head and greeted Fengyun Shang. Thousands of golden flowers followed him, and necklaces and beads hung in an endless stream. The happy cloud fell on Fengyun Shang's head, and then disappeared.
Feng Yunshang felt that there was a golden glow in front of him. He forgot everything and felt extremely warm. However, he couldn't help but want to pursue something. He stumbled ignorantly in the golden light. After a long time, he was separated from the thousands of golden flowers and was held up by Qingyun.
Just get started.
"I am a poor Taoist, Taoist Tongtian." Taoist Tongtian is different from his two senior brothers. He has black hair, a sheep's beard, and a face like a crown jade, but there is an evil spirit lingering between his eyebrows. "The two senior brothers take the exam respectively.
Your perseverance, true intention, and poor understanding will be tested."
Taoist Tongtian had a Qingping sword hanging on his waist, but he didn't use it. Instead, he pointed his fingers at each other and held out a sword forward. Fengyun Shang used this magical power in front of him, and he felt that the world was collapsing, and everything in the world was destroyed by this sword.
Next, I was sweating coldly without realizing it.
"If you hand over a sword, if the poor Taoist thinks that your understanding is acceptable, he will naturally let you pass." After a long time, Taoist Tongtian woke up Feng Yun Shang and said this.
Fengyun Shang released the golden three realms and whispered, "Borrow a sword and use your magical power." A divine sword appeared out of thin air in front of him. The sword was covered with blood and rust, exuding a murderous intent. Taoist Tongtian showed an interesting look on his face.
After Feng Yunshang took hold of the blood-rust sword, he raised it high above his head, and then slashed it down.
Taoist Tongtian laughed and said, "Congratulations to Junior Brother Yun Shang."
Although Feng Yun Shang's sword just now had a different appearance from the sword he handed out, it had gained the charm and entered the threshold of supernatural power.
"This cloud is called Qingyun, and it is a treasure given to you by your second senior brother." Taoist Tongtian pointed at Qingyun in front of him, injected a divine power into it, stabilized Qingyun's existence, and said with a smile: "Second senior brother gave it to you.
"Zhiqingyun can travel thousands of miles in a day. Whether you are rushing on a daily basis or running for your life, it is an excellent treasure."
"The magical power of yours that Pindao taught me is called Jiejian. It is Pindao's great magical power. It connects tribulation and interception. I hope you will have a good time to understand it." After passing the three tests, although I haven't met Taoist Hongjun yet, I have passed the test.
The Tiandao people have regarded Fengyun Shang as his younger brother. Although the evil spirit between his brows has not dissipated, his words have become much kinder.
"The second senior brother and I each pass on a treasure to the younger junior brother. Senior brother, you can't be stingy." Taoist Tongtian said with a smile and began to ask for benefits for the younger junior brother.
The old Taoist Li Er gave a bitter smile, appeared from behind the door, and said: "Junior brother, your outer body can speak a lot more than your true body."
Taoist Tongtian laughed loudly and ignored Li Er's teasing.
Li Er turned over his hand and took out a heaven-measuring ruler, separated a ray of charm from it, and said with a smile: "The skills you have cultivated are already at the top of the divine court, and you have obtained the treasures and magical powers of the two junior brothers. I will definitely return them when I see the master later."
You have been given a treasure. I will not give you anything else. You can give this thread of Taoism to your wife to protect her."
Taoist Tongtian laughed with satisfaction and said: "Little junior brother, don't hurry up and accept it. This Taoist rhyme is the Taoist rhyme of the Heavenly Measurement Ruler. It can even summon the momentum of the Heavenly Measurement Ruler. Even a poor Taoist is envious of it."
Fengyun Shang thanked him sincerely and accepted the Tao Yun. Like the Xuanhuang Pagoda and the Tai Chi Diagram, the Heavenly Measurement Ruler was also Li Er's famous treasure, but he never lent it to Master Xuandu, but kept it with him all the time.
"Come and see me." A voice rang in the hearts of the three of them. Tongtian quickly stopped laughing and went to meet Hongjun together.
"Meet the master." Li Er and Tongtian bowed down and worshiped. Feng Yun Shang took out Shu Xiu from the stored magic weapon, knelt on the ground, and shouted: "Sir, please accept me as your disciple."
"Shan." Hongjun smiled, something flew out of his embroidered robe, and said: "This sword is called Laojun Sword. It is the sword your senior brother wore in his early years, and it is given to you today."
"Thank you, Master." Fengyun Shang stood up and stepped forward, holding Laojun's sword with both hands, then stepped back behind Li Er and Taoist Tongtian, his eyebrows lowered and he looked very obedient.
"Tongtian, your incarnation has nothing to do while I'm here. I usually go to your junior brother's house more often to guide his wife in her practice." Hongjun looked at Taoist Tongtian and said.
Tongtian Taoist hurriedly claimed that his body was sitting in the wild wilderness, but this incarnation was not accompanying Hongjun, but was confined in the imperial palace by Hongjun. In the early years, Tongtian became murderous because of some things, causing too much trouble.
He committed many sins and was punished by Hongjun to reflect on himself in the imperial palace.
Now Hongjun allows him to go around Fengyun Merchant. Although it does not lift his ban, it is still a good signal.
"Practice is a very personal matter. Yun Shang, your path has been determined. I cannot interfere too much with how to practice, so there are not many people who can give you guidance." Hongjun pointed out, and a ray of light entered the center of Fengyun Shang's eyebrows.
, forming the mark of a palace, and said: "So when you encounter difficulties, you need to think a lot. If you really can't figure it out, you can ask me."
"Disciple, I will obey my master's orders." Fengyun Shang bowed and said. With the addition of a simple Laojun sword on his waist, his whole temperament also changed slightly, becoming more restrained.
"Li Er, starting from tomorrow, I will lead your junior brother to practice, just like you did when you first started. Don't slack off." Hongjun looked at Li Er and said to him.
A slight smile of schadenfreude appeared on Tongtian's face. The three of them were tortured by Hongjun when they first entered the family. Now that they can see someone following in his footsteps, it is as refreshing as eating ice cubes in the summer.
"Okay, you guys go down first." After Hongjun finished explaining, he asked Fengyun Shang and the others to retreat and went to the palace of the God Emperor.
Fengyun Shang invited Li Er, Taoist Tongtian, and Master Xuandu to his home, and asked Jiang Ruxue to cook some side dishes, drink some wine, and have a light meal to bring them closer together. After meeting Jiang Ruxue,
Taoist Tongtian's eyes lit up a little and he praised: "What a virtuous woman. Junior brother is really blessed."
Tongtian separated out some of the Taoist charm of the Qingping Sword and gave it to Jiang Ruxue. He smiled and said: "The Four Swords of Zhuxian guard the wilderness and can't easily move it, so I will give you some of the Taoist charm of the Qingping Sword."
Li Er was convinced that Tongtian had the idea of accepting a disciple. Among the three disciples of Hongjun, only Taoist Tongtian loved to accept a disciple. He had a lot of disciples under his sect. Anyone who had the idea of accepting a disciple would do it.
First, give me the Dao Yun of the Four Swords of Killing Immortals.
It is true that the four swords of Zhu Xian must not be moved lightly, but there is no harm in distinguishing some Taoist charm. However, Jiang Ruxue is the wife of Fengyun Shang, and Fengyun Shang is Tongtian’s junior disciple. If Tongtian accepts Jiang Ruxue as his disciple, his seniority will
There will be chaos. That's why Qingping Kendo Yun was given instead of Si Kendo Yun.
