Chapter Forty-Five: Offering the Law

  Three months of facing the wall have passed. Mu Yuan finally regained his freedom, no longer having to suffer and daze in the muddy and smelly swamp everywhere, returned to Dingyun Peak, first took a warm water bath, changed into clean clothes, thinking that there were still many things that had not been dealt with, he hurriedly went to find his master!

  Still the Qingguang Temple of Tongyun Peak, at this moment all the disciples who went down the mountain to practice have returned, and Mu Yuan also returned from the back mountain after facing the wall, it's a small peak gathering!

  Cang Qingzi sat casually on a green rattan armchair in the center of the Qingguang Temple, with more than 20 disciples from the Dingyun Peak lineage below him. Mu Yuan was among them, ranking tenth, which was determined by the order of their entry into the sect. Everyone had a joyful expression as they listened to Cang Qingzi's speech!

  Among more than twenty disciples, the one with the highest cultivation and also the earliest to enter the sect was the eldest senior brother, Chen Huayi. He was only in his thirties but had already reached the seventh layer of Qi Refining, even surpassing his master Cang Qingzi in terms of cultivation. However, this did not affect his respectful and admiring heart towards his own master, instead becoming increasingly close as time passed.

  And the youngest disciple, only twelve years old, was still in the stage of warming up his tendons and veins, and had only cultivated his Qi to the first level, which was considered not bad for someone like Mu Yuan.

  Cang Qingzi said a few words of encouragement, then cleared his throat. Seeing that several disciples like Mu Yuan had made progress in their cultivation, he casually handed out two thin books. "This is the method for refining Qi from the fourth layer to forming Dan. I see that your progress is not bad, and you have all started to condense your apertures. Soon, you will be able to start absorbing and solidifying the essence of heaven and earth, filling up your spiritual consciousness. This is a sign of refining the spirit!"

  Everyone's hands had two more pages of books, all of which were overjoyed. They took a glance and saw that they were densely packed with tiny characters, all of which were about the secrets of using divine consciousness to contain the heavenly and earthly aura, transforming it into vast divine consciousness. Then, Qingzi continued, "If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me or ask Huayi for guidance. Disperse!"

  All the disciples made a bow and retreated. Mu Yuan suddenly thought of something, stayed behind until the end, Cang Qingzi saw him not leaving, smiled and asked, "Yuan'er, is there anything else?"

  Mu Yuan Gong said, "This time when the disciples came down from the mountain, they inadvertently received a transmission from a Taoist at the end of his life. He said that our school and his school are from the same source, and the heart method he transmitted is called Chao Tai Liu. The disciples also practiced it and found that it has great benefits for practicing our school's Changsheng Jue. I was just about to present it to Master!"

  Cang Qingzi heard this and suddenly stood up, his face full of excitement, "Yuan'er, are you telling the truth?"

  "How dare the disciple deceive his master!" Mu Yuan put out his hand, and a surge of true energy flowed out, performing a babbling brook in mid-air, sometimes surging and swirling, sometimes calm and mirror-like, unpredictable and mysterious, giving people an unpredictable and mysterious feeling!

  "As expected, it's a tidal wave!" Cang Qingzi quickly walked down and pulled Mu Yuan, "Hurry up, come with me to Fei Long Peak to meet Master Shifu. He will definitely be delighted!"

  Cang Qingzi's large sleeve waved, and his entire body was wrapped in a layer of dark cyan light. With Mu Yuan, he flew out quickly and rushed straight to Fei Long Peak!

  Outside the Qingguang Hall, there were still disciples who had not dispersed. Suddenly, they saw their master Qingguang wrapped in a green light and flying away with Mu Yuan. They were all extremely surprised and looked at each other, seeing that the two had gone to Feilong Peak, and they began to speculate about what had happened!

  Feilong Peak is the most magnificent among the seven peaks of Changsheng Palace, its body like a broad and wide sword inserted into the sky, half hidden in the clouds and fog. The main hall, Qinglong Hall, was also majestic and ancient, with only a few young monks sweeping inside. Qingyunzi approached one of them who looked like a girl with clear eyebrows and eyes, saying, "Go and report to the master, tell him that Qingyunzi from Feilong Peak has something to see him about!"

  The young monk calmly and unhurriedly bowed and entered the back hall, but after a short while, a loud and clear laugh was heard from behind the hall. Although he had not arrived yet, his voice was already audible. "Third Master has not come to Feilong Peak for a long time, what wind brought you here today?"

  Although Tiemu was the head of Changsheng Palace, he didn't have that kind of majesty. Instead, he looked like a kindly old neighbor with white hair and a smiling face, giving off an amiable and approachable feeling. He had a moderate build and wore a long blue Taoist robe, smiling as he greeted Qingchenzi.

  Upon meeting the head of Changsheng Palace, Cang Qingzi and Mu Yuan both bowed in respect. Tiemu Zhenren chuckled and helped them up, sizing up Mu Yuan before praising him, "The disciple from your school is quite well-cultivated, but somehow seems a bit strange!"

  In the Taoist practice, it has always been emphasized that man and nature are one, with a pure breath. If not deeply explored, generally speaking, it is difficult to distinguish between the deep and the shallow. Moreover, the tide of life itself is constantly changing, and at every moment, it is in an uncertain state. Even if it were Iron Wood True Man, he would not be able to see through it at a glance!

  Cang Qingzi smiled and said, "It's just that my disciple brought back the heart mantra of Chao Xiu when he came down from the mountain. I've come to show it to you. What reward should the head of Changsheng Palace give to my disciple?"

  Temujin's face was full of surprise, and there was a hint of excitement, he hastily said, "Really? The Five Elements Tao has been fragmented for many years, if we can get the Chao Tzu Flow, it will be extremely beneficial to our sect. Water and wood are mutually born, not to mention other things, but in terms of cultivating the Longevity Art, progress can be accelerated a lot faster!"

  Mu Yuan saw that the two attached great importance to Chao Tzu-liu, and he was also delighted in his heart. He could do something for his master's door, so he quickly recited the oral formula of Chao Tzu-liu. The two were listening carefully, from time to time revealing a happy expression.

  The tide flow itself is not long, the heart secret has only over a thousand words, but the attached divine method magic is not less, until Mu Yuan will these one by one lecture out, already passed half an hour, in one breath will these things all recite come out, Mu Yuan still really some thirsty!

  Cang Qingzi and Tie Mu Zhenren both closed their eyes in deep thought, and only after a long time did they come back to their senses. Tie Mu Zhenren praised, "The Five Elements' Great Way is indeed each with its own wonders! The tides flow without being bound by fixed patterns, changing freely and unpredictably. Gathering water forms streams, gathering streams form rivers, and ultimately all the rivers gather together into a vast ocean. As for my Long Life Secret, it's most skilled at gathering true energy. With the Long Life Secret as the foundation, combined with the spiritual changes of the tides, it can truly be said that they complement each other perfectly!"

  Cang Qingzi nodded in agreement, but Temujin turned to Mu Yuan and asked, "How did you obtain the Chao Tai Liu Xin Jue? Tell me about it!"

  Mu hurriedly recounted the process of meeting the Taoist priest from start to finish, until the Taoist priest's death and the transmission of his final skills, leaving the two listeners sighing in amazement!

  "That monk is using a fan, and he's also at odds with the waterway, it must be Ling Tianji, the master of Shanhe Academy. Alas, I didn't expect that the Five Elements Taoist lineage would finally have a broken branch!" Tiemu Zhenren sighed and turned to Qingyuanzi, "Brother Biyuan, your disciple has made such a great contribution to Longsheng Palace, how should we reward him?"

  Cang Qingzi is his Taoist name, but in the past when Cang Qingzi traveled down the mountain, he was conferred by the Emperor of Tiandu as Biyuan Zhenren, and outsiders often called him by this title, even in the Longevity Palace, he was mostly referred to as such!

  Cang Qingzi smiled silently, just looking at Mu Yuan, but Mu Yuan's heart moved, thinking of something!
