Records of the Lost Cases of Helaitang in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 81 Seven Star True Immortal Formation

Tiandu Mountain, early spring.

The young Taoist Huanghe has been breathing on the rocks in the mountains for an hour. The index finger of his left hand and the middle finger of his right hand are holding the Heavenly Immortal Technique, which is the supreme method of Qi training in their sect.

At that time, the stars are falling, the long night is about to dawn, and the streams in the mountains and forests are gurgling, ringing with sweet and beautiful syllables. If you smell it gently, you will find that there is a good smell everywhere - the fragrance of vanilla.

The grass leaves in Tiandu Mountain turned yellow and green, and the mountain flowers bloomed and withered. Taoist Huanghe was completely unaware of it. He was very determined to pursue the golden elixir path and practiced diligently every day without stopping.

In Tiandu Temple, Taoist Priest Yuanyang, who was over fifty years old, tossed and turned. He never closed his eyes that night.There was a rustling sound of footsteps outside the curtain, and after going back and forth two or three times, Taoist Priest Yuanyang had no choice but to open his eyes and ask, "What's the matter?"

A little Taoist boy walked forward carefully and said respectfully: "Master, it's Master Qingyang who wants to see you."

Taoist Priest Yuanyang frowned and said, "Let him come in, oh no, ask him to go to the star observatory and wait."

The dew became heavier, Taoist Priest Yuanyang put on his crane cloak, walked through the twists and turns of the corridor, and slowly climbed up the long steps of the star observatory.

The long river gradually falls, the morning star sinks,
Under the dim sky, only one person could be seen alone on the high platform in the flickering candlelight. His eyes were shining, as if they could enchant the soul.

"Senior brother, please look. The purple sky is dim, and the lone star in the southwest shines alone. The world will undergo earth-shaking changes. Senior brother, please make a decision today."

"Senior brother, how famous was the Tiandu Sect when you and I were young and learning Taoism? What is the situation of the Tiandu Sect now?"

Taoist Priest Yuanyang raised his head and looked up at the sky. He was silent for a long time, his eyes showing fiery heat. He suddenly stopped and nodded, "I'll do as you say."

When the little Taoist boy Xuanyuan found Taoist Huanghe, the golden crow was rising, the red clouds were rolling, and the peaks and mountains were shrouded in the bright light and shadow.

"The master master is out of seclusion today and has gathered his disciples in Chongxiao Hall. Please go quickly, fifth brother." Xuan Yu said and bowed.

Huang He woke up from his meditation, and heard the sound of the jade flute coming from the main peak of Tiandu Mountain. Tiandu Temple always used the sound of the flute to summon his disciples, but he was so focused on channeling Qi and breathing that he turned a deaf ear.Thinking of this, he felt a little apologetic, flew down from the big rock, cupped his hands towards Xuan Stork and said, "Junior brother, I'd like to take a special trip."

Xuan Stork nodded slightly and hurried away elsewhere.

Huang He has been wandering around the peaks of Tiandu Mountain since he was a child. The main peak of the mountain is so towering that it is nothing in his eyes. He arrived at the Chongxiao Hall in Tiandu Temple in just a few cups of tea.

When Huang He arrived, he only saw his fellow apprentices whispering in groups. He was by nature indifferent and did not get close to others. Although he was a little surprised when he saw this, he only stood sideways in the hall and did not say much.

Not long after, Master Master Yuanyang Zhenren arrived and took the main seat in Chongxiao Hall under the guidance of the Taoist boy.

Behind him was a Taoist Priest in black robes. It was said that this was Taoist Priest Qingyang, the only disciple of Master Yuanyang.He is much younger than the real person, and his appearance is very pale. Judging from Huang He's limited experience, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an immortal.

Master Yuanyang sat upright and said in a majestic tone: "I have been practicing in seclusion for a long time recently, and I have benefited a lot. When I leave seclusion today, I have something important to announce. Oh, let me take a test of yours first. Swordsmanship, have you practiced diligently?"

In addition to studying the Taoist classics and practicing breathing and guiding Qi, the Tiandu Sect's inherited skill is the Tiandu Eighteen Style Sword Moves, which are so exquisite that there are few enemies in the world.For a moment, the Qingfeng shone in the palace, and soon the winner was decided one after another.The thirteen disciples who entered the house, except for the younger brother Xuan You, did not participate in the duel. The winners were the eldest brother, the fourth brother, the seventh brother, the tenth brother, and the eleventh brother.

Huang He has practiced swordplay since he was a child, and is extremely skilled in the Eighteen Forms of Tiandu. He works hard and diligently, and is agile. As expected, he won the battle against his sixth junior brother.

The real life winner of Yuanyang stood on the side of Taoist Qingyang, stroking his beard and smiling: "Junior brother, do you think the materials of these six disciples are acceptable?"

Taoist Master Qingyang nodded slightly and said, "Senior brother's method of training his disciples is naturally extremely clever, and he is worthy of the Seven-Star True Immortal Formation."

"Seven Stars True Immortal Formation." All the disciples were shocked, and the winners looked happy.

There are records in the Tiandu Sect's classics. This is an extremely powerful formation. Only a few people in this sect can actually practice it. In modern times, it is a rare honor to be qualified to practice this sword formation.

Master Yuanyang returned to the main seat and sat down. He waved his hands to calm everyone down and said slowly: "In ancient times, King Zhou of Shang was debauched and immoral. In my Taoist sect, I intercepted teachings and helped Zhou to do evil. I explained and taught in accordance with the destiny of heaven to help King Wu of Zhou. Those who are able to be on the list of gods are regarded as righteous immortals. Today's emperors are dim and incompetent, and the righteous Taoist priests are causing trouble in the court and harming the people. They are actually demons. King Yuzhang is a wise king who wants to clear the emperor's side and eliminate harm for the country. I Tiandu Sect, as a Taoist orthodoxy, cannot stand idly by. Starting today, Taoist Priest Qingyang will teach you the six-person Seven-Star True Immortal Formation. When you complete the training, you will go down to the mountain to help Yuzhang kill demons and eliminate demons and help the avenue."

Master Yuanyang raised his sword high above his head and said solemnly: "Tiandu Sect, the authentic sect of Xuanmen, Kuangfu Dao."

More than ten disciples were affected by the excitement and shouted: "Tiandu Sect, the authentic sect of Xuanmen, help the great road."

Huang He has been a monk since he was a child and has been practicing Taoism. He knows almost nothing about the world. Hearing that six of his brothers were about to go down the mountain after practicing the Seven-Star True Immortal Formation, he couldn't help but hesitate.When the thunderous cheers of the crowd faded, he hesitantly stepped out of the queue, saluted Master Yuanyang, and said: "Master..."

As soon as I started talking, I felt very uneasy and didn't have the courage to continue talking.

Master Yuanyang knew Huang He's temperament well and smiled gently at him: "Huang He, I guess you don't want to go down the mountain?"

When Huang He was told something important, he lowered his head and did not dare to look at the real person.

Master Yuanyang stood up, walked to Huang He, patted his shoulder, and said: "You are devoted to the Tao, and you are sincere and determined. You are a teacher who understands this best. But have you ever thought about it, in the whole world, within the four seas?" , I don’t know how many monks there are, but there are only a few who are on the Immortal List, why is this?"

Huang He was startled and didn't know how to answer.

But seeing Master Yuanyang continue to say: "To become an immortal, you must have great merits. Huang He, you have practiced hard enough, but you still lack the experience of the world. When the opportunity comes, you can accumulate great merits and rank in the immortal class, which is also the case." possible."

These words were like enlightenment. Huang He was so convinced that he stood up and bowed down to the real person.

From now on, Taoist Master Qingyang will train these six disciples day and night in the back mountain, together with himself, to form the Seven Star True Immortal Formation.

Fortunately, these six disciples had been practicing swordsmanship for a long time. With a little guidance, they were completely transformed. Even such a sophisticated and complicated formation as the Seven-Star True Immortal Formation was completed in seven days.
