63. Corpse Reincarnation (Please Read On)

Danyang….

It should be Danyangzi Ma Yu, the second headmaster of Quanzhen Taoism.

That is, the ancestor of Master Ma.

"I have had some opportunities recently."

"This is the "Eight-Armed King Sutra", which is an external training method. If Master Ma doesn't dislike it, then I can repay Master Ma for your kindness in giving me this opportunity..."

Xu Xing held the token, hesitated for a moment, took out the copied "Eight-Armed King Sutra" from his arms, and stuffed it into Master Ma's hand.

With his current status, a technique of unknown origin cannot threaten him.

No matter how good the technique is, it all depends on who practices it.

Just like Master Ma, such a master is still threatened by foreign guns...

"Brother Xing found it in ancient books again?"

Master Ma flipped through the scriptures briefly and looked quite strange.

This opportunity is too good.

Can you get good martial arts skills just by flipping through books?

Why...why doesn't he have such luck?

Oh, by the way, he doesn't read books himself. Then it'll be fine.

"A few days ago, I was rummaging through old books in my study, and I accidentally came across a copy of the Lengyan Sutra. The store didn't know what it was, so I bought it."

Xu Xing casually found a reason and excused himself.

Even though he is not a gentleman, he does not want to be a villain.

A favor must be repaid.

"The Sutra of the Eight-Armed King" is of immeasurable value as the Zhenshu technique of Xuanji Temple in the real world. If Monk Shang had not been the leader of the Eighteenth Route Anti-King Alliance, this rare book would not be worth mentioning in the overall situation, and it would be a betrayal. Otherwise, if you really have to spend money to buy this skill, it will be priceless.

With just a few words, you can see the value of this book.

Beautiful inside and out!

While practicing externally, it can also promote the growth of internal energy.

Although it is not as simple as practicing internal martial arts and accumulating internal energy quickly, in terms of strength improvement, this scripture is far superior to martial artists of the same realm.

Other warriors practice both paths, most of which are miscellaneous practices.

Internal training methods and external training methods are not compatible.

In the "Eight-Armed King Sutra", both internal training and external training come from the same set of exercises.

It's just that... Monk Shang also had some scheming intentions and tore off the three seals of the Ming King that were included in the "Eight-Armed Ming Wang Sutra", leaving only the skills.

"What a blessing."

Master Ma praised.

…

The next day, early in the morning.

Xu Xing spent money to rent a horse and then galloped to Chang'an County.

Jingyang County and Chang'an County are both counties under the jurisdiction of the provincial capital of Qin Province, and the distance between the two counties is not far. However, Jinxian Temple is located in Ziwu Valley in Zhongnan Mountain, which is quite a long distance from the county seat of Jingyang County.

It probably took a whole morning of work.

He rushed to Ziwu Town.

Jinxian Temple is also one of the famous Taoist places near Qin Province.

This temple was built by Emperor Ming Dynasty Li Longji for his sister Princess Jinxian.

Speaking of Princess Jinxian, many people may not be familiar with her. However, Princess Yuzhen became famous in the prosperous Tang Dynasty because of Li Bai and Wang Wei. Princess Yuzhen and Princess Jinxian are biological sisters, and they became monks and practiced Taoism together.

When he arrived at the gate of the temple, Xu Xing was stopped by the little Taoist priest.

"Laity, please go over there to burn incense..."

The little Taoist priest pointed to Doumu Hall on the side and asked Xu Xing to go around.

Jinxian Temple is popular nearby. Xu Xing only glanced around and saw many pilgrims walking along the mountain path, and many Taoist priests from the Xianfeng Taoist community were also accompanying them.

"I'm looking for Daozhang Liu..."

"This is a token."

Xu Xing took out the jade token from his robe and waved it in front of the little Taoist priest.

"The layman's surname should be Xu."

Seeing this, the little Taoist priest was stunned for a moment and then remembered what Taoist Master Liu had told him. He bowed to Xu Xing, then leaned the broom he was carrying next to the wooden pillar of the archway, and politely led the way forward, "I would like to invite Master Xu to follow me. Daochang Liu has been waiting inside for a long time."

He is not blind.

There was a three-foot gentleman's belt hanging around Xu Xing's waist, which is a sign of those who have achieved fame.

It is against the law for ordinary people to wear them indiscriminately.

Therefore, after Xu Xing showed off his token, he led Xu Xing the way without hesitation.

Along the way, Penglai Pavilion, Jinxian Palace, Doumu, Longhu, Sanqing Palace——

Until you turn to a wing in the west courtyard.

This is a slightly remote courtyard, built on a cliff.

The scenery is secluded.

After raising his legs and stepping into the Moon Gate, Xu Xing did not see the leader of Longmen Pavilion, Daochang Liu. Instead, he saw a little Taoist boy with a bun hanging down, meditating in a pavilion.

"He has been weak and sick since he was a child. If he doesn't practice this Vajra Kung Fu, he will die young."

"But as a layman... you already have internal strength, so you don't need to practice this skill."

The door of the wing slowly opened, and a lame old Taoist priest walked out.

The old Taoist priest has white hair and a childish face, with a peaceful face.

"The poor Taoist Ming Cang, whose common surname is Liu, has met layman Xu..."

The old Taoist priest is fully dressed, with his hair tied in a bun, a flat Hunyuan scarf on his head, and the top bun is pinned with a wooden hairpin. He is wearing a long black coat with a loose stand-up collar and black Shifang shoes. A feeling of being separated from the secular world, pure and natural. When he saw Xu Xing, he took the lead in giving a Taoist bowing ceremony and introduced himself.

"Good morning, Mingcang Dao Chang."

Xu Xing was secretly shocked.

He has cultivated his inner strength to the point of being true, and is extremely restrained, making it difficult for ordinary people to notice that he has inner strength around him. In addition, the old Taoist priest walked silently, and his body was not stained by dust...

innate?

He was suspicious.

"The poor Taoist only meditates and cultivates his body, but has not practiced the art of killing."

As if he had sensed what Xu Xing was thinking, the old Taoist smiled and said.

Before Xu Xing could speak again, he swung the floating sinker in his hand and said, "I already understand your intention. What you are seeking should be the method of immortality, but now the world is at the end of the road of Taoism, and you are a foolish person, it is difficult to cultivate the method of immortality..."

Nine out of ten people who saw him were seeking the method of immortality and immortality.

He was not surprised.

"Foolish person..."

Xu Xing was slightly surprised, "May I ask Taoist Mingcang, how do you judge that I am a foolish person?"

He did not have much hope for his qualifications.

He was just an ordinary person.

The foundation of this martial arts practice was solidified step by step by [Tao Fruit]

"The bright light reveals the nature, the nature and light are harmonious, the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit are abundant, and the cultivation of Taoism will make the moonlight appear by itself. This is called the highest wisdom."

The old Taoist priest pondered for a moment, "Knowing Kanli, knowing Yin and Yang, and having a balanced body and bones..., is a person of medium wisdom."

"Below these two, they are all stupid."

"I am also just a stupid person, so you don't have to be surprised."

He added another sentence.

"The highest wisdom, the middle wisdom..."

"Are there people who can compare to these two?"

Xu Xing's heart moved, and he asked again.

"The highest wisdom should be the ancestors who founded the lineage, such as Ziyang Zhenren, Chongyang Zhenren, and Fuyaozi..."

"The middle wisdom..."

Speaking of this, the old Taoist priest kept silent.

Xu Xing also understood this.

When it comes to the ancestors of Taoism, if the younger generation says that the ancestors are only middle wisdom, not the highest wisdom, it is inevitable that there is a suspicion of "criticizing" the ancestors. Quanzhen Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are integrated into one, and it is also understandable to avoid mentioning the name of the respected.

Therefore, the wise can speak, but the middle-wise and the stupid cannot.

"What about the immortals like Lu Zu?"

Xu Xing asked again.

"Not among them."

The old Taoist shook his head.

"Master Mingcang, what method should I practice as a stupid person like me?"

After asking, Xu Xing brought up the main business of entering the temple.

"Only the method of corpse transformation..."

"The superior person raises his body to the sky, which is called the celestial immortal. The middle person travels in famous mountains, which is called the earthly immortal. The inferior person dies first and then sheds his body, which is called the corpse transformation immortal..."
