Changsheng: I, Cao, can see the prompt

Chapter 431 Cao Xie
  Cao Wei slowly stepped out of the cave and came to the top of Tailing Mountain. Looking into the distance, his eyes were as deep as an ancient well.

In the past ten years, his retreat has not been too smooth. From time to time, he will be interrupted from practicing and walk out of Tailing Mountain.

In addition to initially comforting Gongsun Chu who was sentimental about Zuoqiu, the two went out together for a few days.

At the end of that time, they unknowingly went to the Hehuan Sect to look for Zuo Yunzhi. The three of them held candles together, talked night and day, and communicated for more than half a month, once again fully and deeply understanding each other.

And in this turbulent time, the follow-up matters of Sihai Palace have finally come to an end.

Among the many god-transformation monks, Xiu She obtained the boundary-breaking talisman under the siege of other monks of the same level. He escaped into the counter-spirit passage while being seriously injured. It is unknown whether he ascended to the upper world or was another spirit. Go to the boundary.

It's just that the situation of other god-transformation monks is not much better.

For example, among the human race, You Chan and Cangling were seriously injured. Jin Mu saved his life at the cost of an external incarnation, and the three of them returned to the secret realm where the Elder's Palace is located hand in hand.

Ao Heng of the Jiaolong clan had most of his body cut off and was seriously injured before he escaped back to Dragon Island to rest.

Yun Qi, a member of the Peng clan, had his claws cut off and one of his wings, and fled back to Kongfu Island.

The immortal thunder god body that Kui Qing of the Kui tribe was so proud of was shattered by force, and he ended up seriously injured and dying. He returned to Donghuang Leize in a dangerous way.

As for Suan Chi, Xuan Gui Ye Yan, Xiang Liu Xiang Yong, Hu Dou Fu Xuan of the Suanni clan, as well as Master Shan, Feng and Fire of the Great Wilderness Holy Sect, almost all of them suffered injuries of varying severity.

When the Ba Snake clan wisely gave up the blessed land they originally occupied in Yuji Mountain, a fight among various clans arose.

However, due to the serious injuries to the gods of each race, the fight was limited to the Yuanying monks and did not expand.

However, taking advantage of this time when all clans were weak, the five major clans, including the Qingyang clan, the Gaoxin clan, the Jintian clan, the Yujing clan, and the Youdu clan, joined forces to protect each other with the treasures of the clan. Thunder disaster.

Even Cao Wei, who had been in seclusion for many years, heard about this. He heard that in the end, two new cultivators were born.

One is the Gaoxin clan who lives in the Southern Wilderness and inherits the bloodline of Zhu Rong, and the other is the Youdu clan who guards the gate of the Five Mountains in Yinshan and inherits the bloodline of Houtu.

Under such changes, all parties' calculations came to nothing, and Nanhuang was once again under the control of the Gaoxin clan.

However, during this period, there were more than ten white jade spiritual elephants in the foundation-building stage in the Mu Mountain under the name of Qingxia Sect.

The other times Cao Wei left Dongfu were due to family affairs.

In these years, the legitimate son Cao Lin, the second daughter Cao Shan, the third daughter Cao Jie, the fourth son Cao Yuan, the fifth son Cao Liang and other children passed away one after another, and he went to see them off.

And on the seventh day after Cao Guilin's death, in just one day, the Shangguan family monks scattered in Qingyou Daze, Baimang Mountains and the world, whether they were building foundations or refining Qi, a total of hundreds of The rest of them disappeared without a trace almost at the same time.

As for Shangguan Mengyu, who was hiding in the sect's spiritual mountain to practice, he felt that danger was coming, and suddenly triggered the golden elixir thunder and fell.

For this reason, Cao Wei was summoned by Zhenjun Wanhua to the sect's blessed land for questioning.

What was said between the two was unknown to outsiders.

As for the matter about the Shangguan family, after investigation, it was said to the outside world that it was the work of Jie Xiu. As for the more than [-] high-grade spiritual stones and many spiritual objects copied from the Shangguan family, because no monk claimed them, In the end, they all returned to the sect.

However, in the ten years since this incident occurred, the contribution of the Cao family's many properties to the sect has increased from [-]% to [-]%.

As for the reason, other Jindan families and some foundation-building monks from all parties who noticed this naturally understand that this is an explanation given to all parties by the sect and the Cao family.

Even if the family is headed by a monk in the late Jindan period, it still needs to abide by the sect's laws.

As for this Cao family scandal, even if it was revealed after this incident, these insiders remained silent and pretended that it had never happened.

Only once when Bingzheng came to visit, he laughed and said that Cao Wei had done a loss-making business.

Cao Wei laughed it off and said: "My children are all debts from previous lives, and we are here to collect debts!"

The two chatted for a long time before Bingzheng left.

As for the dozen or so children with spiritual roots born after Cao Wei, many of them are over two hundred years old.

With the sufficient supply of cultivation resources from the Cao family, most of these people are now in the late stage of foundation building.

However, after Cao Wei took a look at it, he didn't have much hope in his heart.

Whether these children will be reborn or whether they will break through the golden elixir in the future, he actually doesn't care and doesn't count on them.

As for the other heirs without spiritual roots, when he was still in the Southern Wilderness, these children had already passed away.

In these more than ten years, he only had one heir: Cao Xie.

It's just that this child is naturally smart and can transform as soon as he lands on the ground. Although he is still in the Qi refining stage, he can already speak.

Among the bloodlines he inherited, Liaoshou was better than Jumang.

As for the sect, in the early years, Fang Tang of the Fang family, who married his second daughter Cao Shan, tried his best before the end of his life, and luckily succeeded in forming an elixir.

Of course, this is all thanks to the foundation accumulated by the Fang family in the past thousand years.

However, the only impact this has on Cao Wei is that the sect supplies the Hidden Mist Tea for the Jindan monks to drink every year. After Fang Tang forms the elixir, the Fang family no longer has to hand it all over to the sect.

As a result, rare things are more expensive, and the price of this kind of spiritual tea has increased a lot.

……

……

Cao Wei stood on the top of the mountain for only a moment when a rustling sound came from behind him.

Suddenly, a green shadow suddenly jumped out from the grass, grabbed onto Cao Wei's back, and then climbed onto his shoulders, exposing most of his body.

The person who came was suddenly a strange beast that looked like a tiger or a leopard, with wings on its waist and four horns on its head. There were black stripes hidden under its green fur.

Cao Wei reached out and grabbed the fur from the back of the beast's neck, held it in front of him, and flicked the beast's forehead with his fingers.

The little beast was in pain, closed its glass-like eyes tightly, and let out a cry of "Ferocious...".

And the two fleshy front palms hurriedly protected the head, arched the body, and curled up.

"Are you still naughty?" Cao Wei chuckled.

Hearing this, the little beast shook his head repeatedly, moved his front paws slightly, looked at Cao Wei with his big watery eyes, and said flatteringly: "Father, I don't dare anymore."

As soon as he finished speaking, his whole body glowed with light and he transformed into a child of three or four years old.

As soon as Cao Wei let go, the child landed firmly on the ground, jumped up again, and stood on his shoulders.

"Father, where is the sect? This way or that way?" Cao Xie asked, pointing back and forth.

"Thirty thousand miles to the east, that's where the sect is!" Cao Wei casually pointed in the east direction.

At this moment, a plump and beautiful woman came galloping from a distance, looking at the forbidden spiritual light of Tailing Mountain as nothing, passing by and floating down.

As soon as he saw the visitor, Cao Xun opened his arms and said in a very flattering manner: "Mother, I miss you so much!"

As soon as he said these words, he slipped off Cao Wei's body, and then turned into a green shadow, as if fleeing for his life, and suddenly rushed into the vegetation not far away.

Seeing this, Cao Wei chuckled: "Look how scared Xie'er is of you? I have already said that I have a strict father and a loving mother, why do you have to have a strict mother and a loving father?"

"My master often goes into seclusion, and Xie'er can't see you all year round. If he still has a serious face, he would be too alienated from the relationship between father and son!" You Yun said slowly.

"Xie'er, do you plan to train him under our own knees from now on, or send him to the sect?" Cao Wei asked.

"Let's keep him here for training first, and then send him to the sect after his temperament is determined. Is this okay, sir?" You Yun said.

"You just have to make up your mind. Recently I will refine the golden elixir and give birth to a holy fetus, and from now on I will close Tailing Mountain." Cao Wei said.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he turned over his hand and took out a jade talisman of thousands of miles of communication, and separated a ray of divine consciousness into it.

After a few breaths passed, Youyun asked: "Sir, what's going on with the sect's communication office?"

"I'm just going to go through the motions. Please wait for my fellow Taoists. They are on their way from the sect." Cao Wei chuckled lightly.

Then he said to himself: "It will take a while to get here. Yun'er, you think it's not good for us to just stand here and wait, right?"

At this moment, Cao Xie, a little tiger-like beast like a leopard, poked his head out of the grass and shouted: "Father, mother, are you going to fight again?"

As soon as he said these words, Youyun turned his head sharply, and his originally gentle look suddenly turned into a serious expression. Cao Xian was so frightened that he shrank his head and rolled towards the slope.

After rolling around for more than ten times, he hit the tail of a snake with colorful scales, was rolled up again, and was thrown into the sky.

Cao Xun burst into laughter without fear of rejoicing, fell from the air, and was thrown up again.

After repeating this, it suddenly fell into the air and hit the ground directly, leaving a dent.

Cao Xie climbed up from the ground with difficulty.

Liu Yan laughed heartily at the side: "Xie'er, look at you, you look like a living clay monkey."

"Okay, don't laugh, little master, does it hurt from the fall?" Yunzhu squatted down and took out the brocade handkerchief to wipe the dirt on his face.

After arranging his head for a while, Cao Xun snorted coldly at Liu Yan: "Aunt Liu, Aunt Yun, are you here to fight with my father too? I know you won't show me, so I'll leave first. Don't scream too much." Loud!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he transformed into a beast and ran down the mountain.

"You're a brat!" Liu Yan scolded with a smile.

Having said this, it turned to look at Cao Wei and Youyun, and said with a smile: "Master, sister, you two didn't shy away from being a bit embarrassed when you were doing things. Now you are better!"

"Who knew that Xie'er was born with the ability to remember things." You Yun said slowly.

After all, it didn't expect that the child could remember things even before he was a month old.

"Okay, don't waste your time. They only came here from the sect in two hours." Cao Wei clapped his hands, then embraced his three beautiful concubines in his arms, and then suddenly disappeared.

The next moment, the stone gate of the cave on the mountainside suddenly closed. Within a matter of seconds, a soft and faint sound came from the thick stone door.

"Don't worry!" That was Cao Wei's laughter
  "I'll go first!" This was Liu Yan's fighting voice.

Ever since Youyun became pregnant and gave birth to Cao Xian a few years ago, she became a little anxious.

Obviously in the past few years, it has been loved no less, but it is a pity that nothing can grow in this plump crop field.

But Yunzhu was not so impatient and still served him with all his heart.

Although Cao Wei removed the blood contract from her.

But in fact, it's just a change of circumstances. From spiritual pet to concubine, there is essentially no change.

After two hours of this, Cao Wei, who had changed his clothes again, walked out of the cave feeling refreshed, followed by You Yun, Liu Yan, and Yunzhu whose faces were full of red light.

After no more than ten breaths, dozens of rainbows of various colors flew from a distance.

In that misty spiritual light, there are many golden elixir monks from Qingxia Sect. However, Wei Wujiu and Zuoqiu were not seen among them.

"De Cao, let's set off!" Wanhua said via voice transmission.

As soon as he said these words, four figures flew out from Tailing Mountain to join him and galloped towards the Western Region.

Six or seven hours later, Xia Zong and his group of monks went westward for more than [-] miles, until they reached the border area between the Southern Border and the Western Region, and then flew to the boundless Wu Nian Sea, spanning tens of thousands of miles.

However, they did not stop. Instead, they continued to flee for more than [-] miles. They stopped when they reached a mountain range lined with temples.

Although it was already late at night, the sound of wooden fish and chanting could still be heard from the temple in the mountain, giving off an aura of peace.

In the magnificent hall of a temple in one of the valleys, dozens of monks were sitting cross-legged under the golden Buddha.

While the monks were tapping the wooden fish, they held the rosary beads in one hand and recited the scriptures orally.

Only a monk with red lips and white teeth and a handsome face sat on the ground, leaning on a jade pillar and drinking alone.

"Recite during the day and at night. I don't know what you are reciting. If you have this intention, then walk out of the hall, drag your brocade cassock and go for a walk in the secular world. You cannot become a Buddha by being aloof." Bai Yunqing smiled.

Hearing this, several of the old monks opened their eyes and looked at Baiyun, shook their heads slightly, and then closed their eyes again.

"Hypocritical!" Bai Yun shook his head, and then said slowly: "Someone from the Qingxia Sect is here."

As soon as these words were said, Xuannan, who was in the first seat, said through a message: "Fellow Taoist Wanhua and the descendants of the Qingxia Sect, since they are here, please come into the palace."

While transmitting the message, he continued to recite scriptures.

"My three fellow Taoists, Xuan Nan, Xuan Ying, and Du Ku, are here safely!" Wan Hua said with a smile.

After saying this, he led many of his disciples to fly down and walked into the main hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, Wanhua clasped his hands and bowed respectfully towards the golden Buddha in the hall.

"Fellow Taoist, do you want to worship Buddha with peace of mind?" Xuan Nan asked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Wanhua shook his head slightly and said: "Farewell, I never believe in this one. It is better to ask for yourself than to ask for others. There is no need to place your hopes on these illusory gods and Buddhas. My friend Xuan, you worship the Buddha. After one or two thousand years, what have you gained?”

"Awakening. Everyone, please take a seat!" Xuannan invited.

Hearing this, Wan Hua shook his head slightly, walked slowly, and sat down cross-legged on the futon beside the three people from Wu Nian Temple. The other Jindan monks of Qingxia Sect also sat on the futon.

"De Cao, would you like to have a drink?" Bai Yun invited, holding a wine pot.

"One cup is too little!" Cao Wei walked over with a smile and took out a pot of spiritual wine.

The two of them touched each other, and then drank heavily.

On the other side, after Wanhua took his seat, he asked Xuannan, "What is awareness?"

"The mind has no attachment or fear, it is awareness!" Xuannan said.

As soon as he said this, Wanhua smiled and said, "Then are you enlightened?"

"What is enlightenment?" Xuannan asked.

"You ask me? I have never been enlightened! The so-called enlightened person cuts off all confusion and enlightens to the truth. Are you really enlightened?" Wanhua said with a smile.

"Thousands of years of practice can only protect oneself and cannot be considered enlightenment! When my senior brother became enlightened in the past, he could be considered an awakened person." Xuannan said slowly.

"After Master Xuanbei became enlightened, he sympathized with and sympathized with all living beings. He was indeed an awakened person. What a pity!" Wanhua shook his head slightly.

"Yes, what a pity! Fellow Taoists have come all the way, so why not rest for a night first? Fellow Taoists from all sects will not arrive until tomorrow." Xuannan nodded and said.

"Yes!" Wanhua nodded lightly.

As soon as he said this, Bai Yun stood up next to him and asked with a smile: "De Cao, are you going to the mountains to watch the moon and drink together?"

"Let's go." Cao Wei nodded and said.

As they spoke, the two stood up and walked out of the hall side by side, disappearing into the moon-dappled mountain road.

……

……

Cao Wei and Baiyun were sitting cross-legged on the edge of a clear moonlit pool in the valley.

People who had killed each other several times in the past felt like old friends reunited at this moment.

After the two of them drank all the spiritual wine in their hands, Bai Yun opened his mouth and said quietly: "Do you think it's worth it for the old monk to be like this? Among their generation, apart from him, there are only Ling Yan and others. It’s such a pity for your noble sect’s sea of ​​clouds!”

The old monk in his mouth was naturally Master Xuanbei.

Upon hearing this, Cao Wei was silent for a moment, and then asked after thinking: "What do you think? People who see clearly in the world can't help but want to wake up more people and help them escape from the sea of ​​suffering. It's a pity that the world is too If they are suffering, they do not need others to become enlightened. Once they are enlightened, they will be unable to change their own situation and will suffer even more. This is caused by the general trend. If there is a world of great harmony, sentient beings will not need others to become enlightened. All enlightenment is self-enlightenment.”

"This old monk wants to wake up other people. He is like a mantis using his arms as a chariot. He deserves to die. Therefore, from the beginning of my practice, I have made up my mind to think about myself and live for myself. The Hinayana and Mahayana of Buddhism are enough. No need. De Cao, what about you?" Bai Yun chuckled.

"Me?" Cao Wei looked up at the moon in the sky, and then at the moon in the pond.

After a few breaths passed, he tossed the white jade wine bottle in his hand, and it fell into the pool, creating ripples and crinkling the moonlight.

Then he chuckled: "I am just like these ripples, reflecting each other's shadow. I am not me, I am who I am!"

Hearing this, Bai Yun laughed loudly: "You are really interesting, when will you be ready to survive the catastrophe and become a baby?"

"After this is over. How long will you stay?" Cao Wei asked.

"Same as you! Now I have gone through hardships and given birth to a baby. This time I am blameless and the future is coming. I must have given birth to a baby too, right?" Bai Yun said.

"You must be unable to sense the Heavenly Tribulation of Infant Formation!" Cao Wei said slowly.

"Will you and I have a meeting tomorrow?" Bai Yun asked.

"Is it just about winning or losing, or is it about life and death?" Cao Wei said unhurriedly.

"Winning or losing, I'm not sure about killing you. In the past ten years, you must have improved a lot, right? If you are sure about killing me, there is no need to show mercy!" Bai Yun said with a calm smile.

"If it can be done, it will definitely not happen. It's a pity that I'm not sure at the moment!" Cao Wei said with a smile.

Hearing this, Bai Yun sighed, and then asked: "In the past, when the blood rain fell in that Sea Palace, did you ever obtain the Dharma?"

Cao Wei nodded slightly and said: "There is a method called "The Method of Enlightenment and Transformation into God", but it is difficult, far better than other methods."

Among the many techniques in Qingxia Sect, there has never been one similar to it.

Even the "Teng Peng" method created by the powerful monk of the Peng tribe is far inferior to it!
  "It is indeed difficult. Over the years, I have studied this method for a long time and found that it is a method based on obsession. If the sword goes astray to the extreme, if you are not careful, you are very likely to be counterattacked by your own obsession. Since you Both of you and Brother Duku have gained something, and the other Taoist friends must be the same. I don’t know what the great master who appeared in the Four Seas Palace is thinking about?" Bai Yun said slowly.

"Why bother thinking so much? What kind of existence that great power is is beyond our ability to understand!" Cao Wei said.

After saying this, he turned over his hand and took out a pot of wine and drank it himself.

On the other side, Bai Yun shook his head slightly: "You can think about it. That great power can actually create such a mysterious method. It should be the creation of Gong Shen, and he must be a Mahayana monk. But since there is no such thing in the upper world reaction, I’m afraid something really went wrong!”

"Maybe. I don't care about this matter. But since this method has been created, there must be someone who has mastered it. We'll just sit back and watch the sky." Cao Wei chuckled.

"De Cao, after you have a baby, why not give it a try first?" Bai Yun said with a smile.

"You come first?" Cao Wei said with a smile.

While talking, the two touched the wine bottles again, and drank together while taking advantage of the breeze in the mountains.

Before you know it, the Moon Rabbit sets and the Golden Crow rises. In the gloomy sky, the flowing clouds are green and gray.

It wasn't until the red light broke through that the world between heaven and earth suddenly became clear.

At this moment, a stream of frightening rainbows came rushing from all directions.

The first thing to arrive was a scarlet rainbow. When it flew over the valley, a loud laughter came from the spiritual light: "Wanhua, why are you here? Where's Xiaguang?"

Hearing this, Wan Hua, Xuan Nan and other three Nascent Soul monks from Wu Nian Temple walked out side by side. Then he raised his head and said with a smile: "Senior brother has important matters outside and cannot come back in time. Friends of the Six Paths, you have lived well these years. It has broken through the middle stage of Nascent Soul."

As soon as he said these words, the brilliance faded away, revealing a monk with red hair and gray temples, who was the True Lord of the Six Paths of the Demon Sect of that day.

"I can't compare to you two senior brothers." True Lord Six Paths said with a smile.

Over the years, although almost all the late Jindan monks in the sect have perished in the Four Seas Palace, he also took this opportunity to integrate the sect and untie the knot in his heart. He suddenly broke through the bottleneck and broke through to the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
