Chapter 332: Shaking the World, What Is Merit?

Xiangshan, one of the Seven Mountains Alliance, has rugged rocks and waterfalls, and is more than ten thousand feet high, more than twice the height of the other six mountains.

On the top of Xiangshan, there are few birds and beasts, and the snow is ankle-deep. But in this white snow, there is a clear spring emitting hot steam, winding and flowing, all the way into the small pond.

Around the small pond, there is a green land with blooming flowers and birds singing. In the middle of the green land, there is a sparse forest, which shades a quiet and simple courtyard.

In the courtyard, a middle-aged monk with a short black beard and wearing a dark blue Taoist robe is leisurely drinking tea and playing chess. There is no one opposite him, and he seems to be enjoying himself.

Suddenly, the whole world shook, and the middle-aged monk stood up suddenly. His expression was no longer as leisurely as before, and he was shocked and horrified. This power is too strong! Too incredible!

He turned his eyes to the direction of the vibration, and saw a purple cloud connecting the sky and the earth. Even if it was millions of miles away, it could not reduce its power. In a flash, the purple cloud disappeared and turned into dots of purple light, floating down, covering the universe, and even some of it fell into the courtyard.

The middle-aged monk stretched out his palm, wanting to catch the purple light, but the purple light was completely unaffected by him, and fell to the ground on its own, and then disappeared without a trace.

He desperately used various ninth-level Taoist techniques and magic weapons mixed with Yuanshen consciousness, but the middle-aged monk could only watch the purple light slowly disappear.

Recalling the feeling just now, even if he was a Yuanshen Zhenren, compared with this power, it was like a firefly competing for the bright moon. There was no comparison at all. It was completely beyond his level of understanding!

There is such a realm in the world? ! Such cultivation? ! The middle-aged monk laughed at himself as a frog in the well, and rekindled the long-lost excitement.

All along, I thought I had reached the pinnacle of cultivation in this world, with no room for advancement. I waited for the calamity to come and wiped out myself, a thief who could not tolerate the changes of nature.

But now, I saw the direction of advancement again. Although I could not understand the power at all, it told me that the road ahead was not a dead end! How could I not be excited and ecstatic!

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, the Seven Mountain Alliance Master Hao Ri sent a message to his disciple, Master Fa Xiang: "Qing Qian, quickly take the disciples to investigate the place where the purple clouds rose just now. Well, be nice, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

At the same time, Master Hao Ri himself turned into a red light and disappeared into the sky in a few moments. He secretly rejoiced in his heart that he had fewer restrictions than the other three old friends. As long as he did not take action, there would be no big problem. If he could not go there in person for such a big event, he would probably miss this once-in-a-million-year opportunity.

Mingxia Zhenren Shui Qingqian had long been shocked by Zixia, but she did not have the direct feeling of that power like Haori Zhenren, she just instinctively felt shocked herself, but at the same time she also understood how incredible it was to be able to shake the whole world!

Retracting her thoughts, receiving the decree of Haori Zhenren, Shui Qingqian identified the direction and went to Ziluo Country with some anxious Jindan Grandmasters.

…………

When Zixia went straight into Qingming.

In the back of Huomu Mountain, in a strange blue swamp, an equally blue ebony coffin flew up from it. There were nine blue chains on the blue coffin, extending all the way to the depths of the swamp.

The coffin lid suddenly popped open, revealing a white-haired old monk with a hideous and very ferocious expression, but when he looked at Zixia, his eyes were full of fear, panic, and uncontrollable joy and excitement, which was completely different from his expression, as if he saw the hope of getting rid of the long nightmare.

With a long roar, the old monk gritted his teeth and made up his mind while conveying the Dharma image of his disciples. He flew out of the coffin and fled in the direction of the purple clouds.

In the back hall of the main hall of the Fahua Sect, in a formation surrounded by a circle of golden statues, a monk wearing a dazzling golden Taoist robe, with a solemn appearance, a wide face and big ears, and a face twisted from time to time, as if he was enduring something, sat cross-legged.

His eyes suddenly opened, and his pupils were full of golden incense lights. He passed through the formations and buildings and looked at the purple clouds in astonishment, his mouth half open, unable to close for a long time.

Then his eyes flashed with golden light, and he stood up directly. He raised his hand, and a circle of eighteen golden statues turned into golden light one by one, flew into his body, and suppressed the golden light in his eyes.

While conveying the disciples, he had already turned into golden light and left.

On the small island in the middle of the Shuiyue Lake behind the Shuiyue Gate, white lotuses were planted. A nun in white clothes and skirt, with a beautiful face but extremely cold and inhuman, was watching the flowers bloom and fall.

Her face, which seemed to never show any expression other than indifference, suddenly rippled, just like a huge rock suddenly fell on a lake that had been calm for tens of thousands of years, which was extremely exciting.

Staring blankly at the purple clouds rising and disappearing, the nun's expression froze, and her eyes actually showed fanaticism, and she turned into light and fled away.

In the overseas Poison Dragon Island, Golden Wing Mountain, and Wanyan Pond, those beings with long lives were also shocked by the purple clouds, and they were inexplicably shocked and panicked.

Three beams of light flew out, but they all froze in mid-air. Remembering that it was the land of the human race, and that the person just now was probably also a human race, they did not dare to go forward, and could not raise the heart of resistance, so they could only return in depression.

Wen Nianxi, who had just left Zi Luo Country not long ago, had an expression on her face that could not be described as wonderful.

How could it be? Isn't that Zhushan? Could it be that the one who emitted this power was Shi Shi? ! He collected the seven true teachings and preached them publicly to the world, is it for today? ! This is the power that makes the heaven and earth bow down!

Wen Nianxi suddenly felt that she seemed to have missed an extremely huge opportunity and regretted it.

When she woke up, she immediately compared "The Great Method of Ascension" and "The True Interpretation of Water and Moon" over and over again, wanting to see what Shi Xuan had learned from them? !

But after the comparison, there was no gain. I thought to myself, do I really need to gather all seven great methods to summon this purple cloud...

…………

Four powerful and vast Yuan consciousnesses collided unexpectedly at the top of the bamboo mountain.

"Daoist Wumu, Daoist Jinluo, Daoist Jingyue, you are here too?" Master Haori said in surprise.

Master Wumu snorted coldly: "You, old Haori, are allowed to come, but we are not allowed to go up the mountain?"

Knowing that Master Wumu has always had a bad temper because of his skills, Master Haori did not care about it. He suppressed his surprise and said: "I thought the three Daoists had no time to split themselves." The implication was that I didn't expect you to be so cruel as to pay a heavy price to come.

True Man Jingyue said in a calm tone, "If you miss this opportunity, you don't know when you will get it again."

True Man Jinluo asked with a smile, "Fellow Daoists, there is no need to fight. Let's share what we have. I believe that the information we can get is limited. If we don't work together, it will be a big deal if something goes wrong."

True Man Wumu looked at True Man Jinluo in confusion, "Old Jinluo, you are not crazy, are you? You want everyone to share what you have for this opportunity? Why don't you share your "Fahua Golden Body Secret" with me?"

Before Jinluo Zhenren replied, Haori Zhenren laughed and said, "Three Taoist friends, we all know the feeling of that power. It is far beyond us. We can't explore it by ourselves. Since we want to go further, we should give up our prejudices and work together. I believe that with your wisdom, it is not difficult to see this."

Jinluo Zhenren had this intention, so he agreed immediately. Jingyue Zhenren coldly said two words: "That's right." Wumu Zhenren saw that the other three agreed. If he was isolated, he would be even more sad, so he nodded in agreement.

After exchanging their gains, the four Yuanshen Zhenren looked at each other thoughtfully.

"Zhushan Patriarch, merit, purple light, Qionghua, drizzle, white fog, Xuanhuang light spots, black and white light spots, Qingxin Xianyin, flowers blooming all over the mountain, rosy clouds, and purple clouds rising to the sky, is this the key point that the Taoist friends found when they just scanned the thoughts of those cultivators?" Haori Zhenren frowned as he spoke.

Jinluo Zhenren nodded and said, "Well, it should be since the 80th year, when an unknown cultivator appeared here and publicly taught Taoism. Because his influence was limited by the nearby cultivation families and did not exceed Ziluo Country by much, we did not notice it. The two sets of exercises he taught were from body forging to golden elixir. Although they were exquisite, they were not too strange. Those cultivators were grateful for his kindness and called him Zhushan Patriarch."

Jingyue Zhenren said expressionlessly, "But seven days ago, Zhushan Patriarch suddenly said that his merits were complete and he would preach for the last time, so purple light, jade flowers, etc. appeared one after another, until the dark yellow light spots and black and white light spots disappeared, and then the terrifying purple clouds wrapped Zhushan Patriarch and rose into the sky from the auspicious aura of the clouds."

"It seems that the real key lies in the merits and the content of Zhushan Patriarch's last words. The rest are just strange phenomena in the sky, just on the surface." Haori Zhenren made a judgment.

Wumu Zhenren said with a gloomy face: "From the monks I have scanned, they either only heard the hazy preaching or fell asleep during the preaching, and there was nothing to gain."

"There should be monks who actually heard it, but there are too many people, so I can only let my disciples investigate one by one." Haori Zhenren sighed.

"Should we be ruthless to those monks?" Wumu Zhenren suggested.

Jinluo Zhenren smiled bitterly and said, "If you piss that person off, do you have the strength to fight back?" Pointing to the sky.

The three Yuanshen Zhenren fell silent together and no longer mentioned the matter. Facing the terrifying power of the Zhushan Patriarch, they were like babies facing a tiger.

"So I told the disciples to investigate carefully, but not to use excessive means. Let's focus on merit. What exactly is this merit?" Hao Ri Zhenren sighed, and then looked at the many cultivators wandering around the top of Zhushan like pilgrims below, "It seems that many cultivators come to Zhulu and Xianshi to seek opportunities and encounters."

The three Yuanshen Zhenren all nodded silently. What exactly is merit? They can only guess and test it from the actions of the Zhushan Patriarch and the literal meaning.

…………

The purple glow dissipated, and Shi Xuan's eyes lit up, and he found that he had returned to Huilong Temple. Granny Yu was holding her fragrant cheeks with her hands, looking at him with a smile. Everything around him was exactly the same as before he went to the Seven Immortals World, as if more than a hundred years had passed in a dream.

Recalling the Seven Immortals World, before he left, he deliberately borrowed Granny Yu's power to show off to shock the four major sects, just to take into account the incense and love of those disciples, so that they could avoid the disaster of being killed that they could not resist.
