The Immortal Taoist Priest in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 53 The Perfection of Water and Fire
Zhang Duxiao passed away.

Most deaths are not spectacular. They may die after eating and sitting for a while; they may also suffer from a serious illness and die in endless pain and wailing.

Zhang Duxiao visited a family and reminisced about old times, and on the way back, he foresaw death.

There are no inspiring quotes before death. Thousands of words can be said, but no regrets. This is a good death.

Some people may find it abrupt, but who is well prepared for death?

yuelu Mountain.

Upon hearing the news of Zhang Duxiao's death, Xu Xuan lost consciousness for a moment, and the tea in the cup gradually became cold.

"What are Zhang Duxiao's last words?" Xu Xuan looked at Li Changsheng.

"The Heavenly Master said, "I'm going."

"Haha, that's quite cool. Master Tian didn't like extravagance when he was alive, so just bury him in Yuelu Mountain."

"Yes!"

The funeral was very simple. The coffin was left in the coffin for a few days while the clan members of the old master came over and held a ceremony before being buried.

The tomb is buried in the back hill not far from Wangxiang Tower.

Xu Xuan did not show up during the whole process, but wrote an elegiac couplet and sent it.

night.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the black magpies fly south.

There is a wooden tombstone on the small grave, and the faint moonlight shines, revealing the number of Zhang Duxiao's tomb.

Xu Xuan stood beside the tomb, silent.

The pursuit of immortality is destined to be a person's journey. If you can only move forward by yourself, others will be left behind.

As for taking out the spirit stones and sharing them with others?
This is impossible. One's own cultivation is not enough. The result of sharing can only be grass growing on the graves of both parties.

The Qi nourishing period is just a minion level in the Mirror Realm, while the Qi training period is considered a bigger minion.

As his Taoism deepened, Xu Xuan had a vague feeling of reaching the upper limit.

Could it be that the upper limit of Qi refining has been reached, and the world will impose heavenly punishment?

Or expel yourself from the world and start a new reincarnation.

Due to the unknown future, Xu Xuan will seize all the spirit stones.

Xu Xuan would only share a few spiritual stones unless he was truly sure of the way forward and ensured that he would not encounter any risks.

Besides, it's not that they don't benefit from it. In the past, martial arts masters were ordinary skill masters. Now, with the addition of Qi and Blood methods, masters also have power beyond normal people.

Now that Huang Ting Neijing's magic is available, his strength will be even higher.

Whoa!
Xu Xuan soared into the sky, ascended high into the sky, looked at the full moon, and leaned back.

Since he perfected the soaring technique, Xu Xuan likes this feeling of flying more and more. This is the most beautiful dream of human beings. Countless literati in the world have described the scene of flying in the air.

For thousands of years, he alone has accomplished this feat.

I am the only immortal, I am the only one who is supreme.

Half an hour later, dark clouds covered the full moon, and Xu Xuanfei looked back at the inside of Xiang Tower.

In the future, more and more comrades will leave. I must carry their hopes and go forward step by step.

Red flames burned blazingly, gold and stone melted inside the stone cauldron, and a strange medicinal fragrance emitted.

The vast resources of the entire world will definitely allow you to achieve breakthroughs in Qi training.

Spring passed and autumn came. This year, Xu Xuan was 40 years old.

Jiangnan, Jinling.

Xu Yong, Emperor Chang of the Han Dynasty, who is nearly forty years old, has grown a goatee and his temperament has become more stable.

He was writing a letter to Xu Xuan, telling the story of Beidi Taoist priests shaving their hair and changing their clothes. Some of the Taoist priests who resisted were killed, while others chose to obey because of high officials and high salaries. Changguo sent spies to contact those Taoist priests who resisted.The other thing is that Xu Yong is very confused now.

"Since he succeeded to the throne, my younger brother has taken the title of Hanchang, which means Hu Wuren, which means Han Daochang. In some areas, there are always barbarians desperately resisting Hanization, only to increase the number of crimes. Some people hide deeper and plot secretly. Some people Flee to the north, or Tubo, to make Tubo stronger and stronger..."

A few years after he succeeded, Xu Yong killed more than a million barbarians. He was probably the emperor who killed the most in history, and they were also his own subjects.

Because a lot of forces have been allocated to rectify the country, the north has been in a state of confrontation and has been unable to make the Northern Expedition.

Xu Yong wanted to simply grant them the power of chieftain first, and then slowly liquidate them after the world was unified.

Soon, the envelope followed the fast horse to Changsha.

After writing the letter, Xu Yong called Li Anbang and asked, "How is the situation?"

"Your Majesty, a small number of aristocratic families are willing to reform, teach simplified Chinese, and learn science. Some aristocratic families have verbally agreed, and even privately only teach the Four Books and Five Classics in official schools. My subordinates have obtained evidence that they have colluded with the Tatars in the north and intend to rebel. .”

"Very well, let's send out troops. They should be punished and killed. When dealing with cynics and slaves, they should be killed with thunder, so that their disciples and descendants will not harm the country in the future!"

"Yes!!"

Not only barbarians, Xu Xuan also killed Confucian scholars, especially Confucianism during the Song and Ming Dynasties, which Xu Yong characterized as "cynics" and "slavish Confucianism". The school either took the initiative to reform or waited for the butcher's knife to fall, which can be said to have "slaughtered millions of people in the south of the Yangtze River" "Soldier", he was more cruel than Qin Shihuang in the eyes of some Confucian scholars.

Meanwhile, a battle royale breaks out in Northland.

A group of Taoist priests with feather crowns and robes holding weapons and riding fast horses fled south covered in blood.

"Follow! Follow! It will be safe when we reach Xiangyang!"

The middle-aged Taoist priest headed by him is the successor of the Northern Great Sect, and his Taoist name is Xuanzhen.

Originally, the barbarians occupied the north. As monks, they had no way to resist, and the barbarians did not bother them. So the two sides lived in peace and pretended that there were no barbarians.

A few months ago, everything changed.

Suddenly a Sun Tianshi appeared, claiming to be the master of Tai Dao and the national master of Qianguo. He was the orthodox Five Dou Rice Sect from a thousand years ago.

That's fine. The key is that this guy wants to promote shaving his hair and changing clothes, which makes many Taoists intolerable.

Whoosh!
Another round of arrows killed three disciples, and one of them pierced Xuan Zhen's cheek.

"Haha, Master, you'd better surrender!"

Behind the group of people was a group of cavalry. They were wearing Taoist robes, with shiny foreheads and braids on the back of their heads.

"Evil beasts who forget their ancestors too many times, God will punish you!" Xuanzhen's eyes were red.

At the end of the Dharma era, many Taoist disciples had unstable hearts. They became monks just to avoid taxes, or to take shortcuts to get close to high-ranking officials.

This time the barbarians extended an olive branch, these people immediately showed up, and only five or sixty people chose to leave with Xuanzhen.

The leader behind him was originally a disciple of Xuan Zhen, but now he joined Sun Taixuan and became the leader of Zhongnan Mountain.

"Haha? Ancestors? You should ask them to come out!"

Different Taoists do not seek each other. One of them is for wealth, and the other is for the illusory Tao. They have changed from being classmates to everlasting enemies.

yuelu Mountain.

Xu Xuan took the elixir, his true energy circulated, butterflies were flying around his side, and the magical insect in the inner scene of Huangting was still in the cultivation stage.

After a long time, his energy changed, and he opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with light.

boom!
A three-foot fire dragon and a three-foot water dragon emerged, flying in the void.

Double Dragon Playing with Pearls.

The northern clear water spell and the southern true fire spell were completed, and the fire dragon grew longer again.

Now you can concentrate on practicing the Golden Light Spell and Huang Ting Nei Jing Shen Shu. Otherwise, if there are too many spells, you will easily be overwhelmed.

Boom boom boom!
At this time, Li Jianxing asked to see him.

"Letter from Jinling!"
