Chapter 4 4 Opportunities Come in Different Levels
Chapter 4 4. Opportunities have advantages and disadvantages
If there is a chance, Lei Jun would rather catch up with the next year's ordination ceremony directly.
Because time waits for no one, and cultivation waits for no one.
Compared to some novels he read on Blue Star before crossing, the practitioners in this world are somewhat special.
Practitioners may have great magical powers and amazing destructive power, but their lifespan is not as long as thousands or tens of thousands of years.
To sum up, it is very hard, but short.
Short is a big problem. In addition to short, another big problem is withering.
One day without immortality, even at the highest realm and the longest lifespan, practitioners will also have old age and weakness.
Based on the information Lei Jun currently knows, the practitioners in this world will not be more powerful as they age unless they continue to improve their realm and constantly surpass themselves to increase the upper limit of their lifespan.
If they do not break through and improve after a certain age, they will only cut off the hope of progress, and gradually weaken, or even fall into a realm.
There are only two possibilities for the old immortal style with a fairy-like appearance, white hair and a youthful face, but still able to reach the top:
First, compared to his old age, his current age is actually far lower than his lifespan limit.
Second, he is really old now, and he would only be stronger when he was young than he is now.
So you don’t have to become famous early, but you must make progress early.
The younger you are, the more motivated you are, the faster you improve, and the more potential you have.
For Lei Jun, who started practicing Taoism at the age of 18, it was very lucky to start the inheritance in a holy place like Tianshi Mansion, which helped him to recover a lot of time.
But it is less than a year away from the ordination ceremony at the beginning of next year.
The higher the realm of cultivation, the more difficult it is and the more time it takes.
If you only eat a small stove of purple gold ganoderma lucidum, you will not be able to catch up. You need more small stoves... Lei Jun had a thought in his mind.
The instructor didn't know what the young man in front of him was thinking about. He sighed to himself: "The elder sister led you into my sect and brought you to Tianshi Mansion. This vision is still very admirable."
Lei Jun: "You are right."
The elder sister is named Xu Yuanzhen.
The instructor in front of him is not actually from the same master as her.
But the true disciples of Tianshi Mansion of the same generation are basically used to calling her "elder sister".
Because Xu Yuanzhen is the first disciple of the contemporary Tianshi.
The elder sister is actually not very old, but her name is very big.
There are many senior elders in Tianshi Mansion, but many people outside Tianshi Mansion call her "Second Tianshi".
It was this second Tianshi who took Lei Jun back to Tianshi Mansion.
However, she doesn't seem to be very reliable.
She especially likes to run around. After taking Lei Jun back to the mountain, she left the mountain again and has never returned.
Lei Jun didn't publicize it much, and let everything take its course.
Instructor: "It's good that you gradually open up to the truth of cultivation, but remember to combine work and rest, and don't be impatient."
Lei Jun: "Yes."
The instructor nodded with satisfaction.
Lei Jun's rapid progress in cultivation surprised him, but he was not too shocked.
As for the fact that he made faster progress than he expected, it was not too eye-catching.
The main reason was that a new celebrity had recently emerged in the neighboring Eighth Branch.
After Chen Yi got the pure gold Ganoderma lucidum, his momentum of rising quickly exploded and began to attract attention.
However, Lei Jun had heard that many people had made things difficult for Chen Yi recently.
In the Sixth Branch, several familiar Taoist children were chatting and talked about this matter.
Senior Brother Zhang, who had recovered from his injuries and regained his vitality, said mysteriously:
"It's simple. I heard that he offended the Taoist priest in the mansion on the mountain!"
Lei Jun: "Because of the pure golden Ganoderma?"
Senior Brother Zhang: "Yes, I heard that he wanted to refine a furnace of elixir. He never succeeded because the Ganoderma platform dried up and the golden Ganoderma disappeared. This time, the Ganoderma platform unexpectedly revived and the golden Ganoderma was reborn. It was a rare opportunity, but the pure golden Ganoderma was swallowed by Chen Yi. Do you think he would not be hated?"
"The Taoist priest in the mansion should not be so hostile to Junior Brother Chen, right?" The Taoist boy beside him asked hesitantly, not just because he was injustice for Chen Yi, but more because of sympathy for the same kind.
Senior Brother Zhang sighed: "The Taoist priest certainly wouldn't make a big fuss about this. At most, he would sigh that he had no chance. However, there were many people in the Taoist Children's Court who wanted to please him, so they thought about dealing with Chen Yi."
Lei Jun recalled his fortune at the time:
[Win the lottery, don't join in the fun, wait for the opportunity, after the shock, go to Lingzhi Terrace, you can get a sixth-grade opportunity, but a big tree attracts wind, arouses jealousy, and hides hidden troubles. 】
According to the style of Senior Sister Xu Yuanzhen, she would only mind the senior elders bullying the weak.
She probably doesn't care about the disputes between the Taoist children below.
With her around, if Lei Jun had chosen this winning lottery, he would definitely not have big troubles, but small troubles are hard to say.
It just fits the way of winning the lottery with mixed results.
However, now Lei Jun just doesn't care about it.
He has heard the gossip stories, and then he still follows his own pace and concentrates on his own practice.
Until one night, the instructor brought a young Taoist priest to Lei Jun's courtyard.
"This is Junior Brother Wang Guiyuan, a disciple of Uncle Yuan."
The instructor introduced: "Uncle Yuan has a letter, let him bring it to you."
"Elder Yuan?" Lei Jun's heart moved.
Elder Yuan, the junior uncle of Xu Yuanzhen.
The junior brother of the contemporary Heavenly Master.
Hearing that the young Taoist in front of him was his disciple, Lei Jun felt a little sad.
Generally speaking, if the Taoist children in the Taoist Children's Court at the foot of the mountain are allowed to participate in the ordination, most of them actually know their future masters.
Which immortal led the Taoist boy to Longhu Mountain to enter Taoism? If nothing unexpected happens, he will be the Taoist boy's master after he officially becomes a Taoist priest. He is also called the master.
Tianshi Mansion attaches great importance to the inheritance of the master, so the so-called immortal fate is usually a direct line.
But Lei Jun encountered an accident.
Thinking back to the time when he came to Longhu Mountain with his senior sister Xu Yuanzhen, when they arrived at the Taoist temple at the foot of the mountain, Xu Yuanzhen stopped someone and asked:
"Master has been in seclusion for almost ten years, and he hasn't come out yet?"
"The old man Tianshi has never come out..."
Xu Yuanzhen: "Which branch did the junior master go to to give lectures before?"
The other party was confused: "Elder Yuan has also been in seclusion recently. I heard that he went to the sixth branch before..."
"Then let's go to the sixth branch."
When they arrived at the place, Xu Yuanzhen pointed at Lei Jun and told the instructor on duty:
"I introduced him to Taoism. I have no intention of accepting him as a disciple, but he is also my person. Please help take care of him on weekdays and don't let anyone bully him."
Instructor: "...Senior sister, refer to your last person, please tell them more and don't bully others."
Xu Yuanzhen: "One bullying a group?"
The other party smiled bitterly.
Xu Yuanzhen: "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. When the junior master comes out of seclusion, say hello to him."
Then she left, leaving Lei Jun and the instructor staring at each other.
Fortunately, Lei Jun did not need to go through any screening and assessment, and no one would specifically check his background.
He was introduced to the Taoism by his senior sister Xu Yuanzhen, so it seemed that Xu Yuanzhen was responsible for everything.
So from that day on, Lei Jun became a glorious... Taoist child in the Tianshi Mansion, the ancestral home of the Fulu Sect, one of the three holy places of Taoism in the world.
After that, Lei Jun studied in the Taoist Child Academy and had a preliminary contact with Taoist practice. He found it interesting and immersed himself in it.
But he had never seen the junior master who was in seclusion, let alone the contemporary Tianshi himself.
Until today.
The disciple of Elder Yuan, the young Taoist named Wang Guiyuan, appeared.
He looked about 30 years old and not impressive, but his apricot-yellow Taoist robe showed his identity as a true disciple of Tianshi Mansion.
He said in a friendly manner: "A few days ago, Master Du's cave had an accident, and some Taoist children rushed to help treat the injured. You, Lei Jun, were among them, right?"
Lei Jun: "It was a coincidence. The mansion often teaches us to be friendly with each other, and we all remember it."
"Not bad, not bad." The instructor smiled and nodded.
After introducing the two parties, he did not stay for long and left first.
Wang Guiyuan said in a gentle voice: "Master has been in seclusion before, and I have been with him. I just came out of seclusion with Master the day before yesterday.
Master knew what the eldest sister thought after coming out of seclusion.
He wanted to meet you in person, but unfortunately the mansion has opened up a new cave paradise outside the mountain. The environment is unfamiliar and complex, and it needs to be explored and stabilized. Master was invited to go there after coming out of seclusion."
While Wang Guiyuan was speaking, he took out a letter:
"However, Master has a special letter for you before leaving."
