Chapter Seventeen: Misunderstanding of Identity
This can only be cultivated in the kind of high-ranking families, and it is the true top-notch family children who will develop this elegant appearance and arrogant demeanor. This cannot be learned!
Nowadays, in this world of Jianghu, neither the Southern Heavenly Master Tao nor the Northern Heavenly Master Tao are prosperous.
But in some long-standing aristocratic families, there are still many believers. Where did this Liu Daoyou come from?
Magistrate Zhang has a discerning eye, but his various guesses about Liu Bu-yi are completely off the mark. The identity of Liu Bu-yi that he guessed is not even half correct!
Firstly, Liu Bu-yi's cultivation had already reached the realm of "Tong Ling" where one's spiritual sea is opened and their spirit is connected. He then began to practice internal alchemy, which is equivalent to the most advanced and supreme method in this world, capable of transforming one's body and soul. That's why Zhang County Magistrate mistakenly thought he was a pre-heavenly Daoist immortal.
Secondly, Liu Bu Yi and the Tian Shi Dao have no connection whatsoever. The arrogance in his bones is not hard to imagine. Using Liu Bu Yi's internet slang from before he crossed over, it would be called a high-magic world coming to a low-martial world...
Furthermore, with Liu Bei having the support of the gods and the backing of Tian Gong, his confidence was naturally extraordinary!
Moreover, Liu was still a bit cautious about this world at the beginning. Even if he knew it was the Great Sui Dynasty, it was all the same. After all, who knows whether there are gods or Buddhas in this world?
But since he knew that this was the world of Datang, Liu Bu had already thoroughly put his mind at ease. Perhaps in this world now there are many people who are much more powerful than himself, but the limit of power is nothing more than breaking through the void. No divine powers, no Taoist magic!
Liu Bei's current mindset is similar to that of the people in the capital, who think that anywhere outside the capital is rural. Similarly, people from Shanghai think that anywhere other than Shanghai is a poor place...
Even if they are poor people from Beijing and Shanghai, they still feel that they have a psychological advantage over the wealthy people from other places. This is human nature, and no one can avoid it!
Anyway, Zhang County Magistrate, a government official from the imperial court and a successful candidate in the imperial examination, looked at Liu Bei with even greater esteem!
In his heart, he thought that no matter what, he had to win over this Taoist priest. Thinking again, what do young people like the most? That must be beautiful women, and so he had an idea.
But then Liu Bu-yi said: "Alright, Magistrate. I was thinking of spreading the teachings in this county, would it be possible to make an exception or two..."
"What's going on?" This was truly beyond County Magistrate Zhang's expectations, yet it also seemed somehow inevitable.
"Of course, of course... Are you also a fellow disciple of the Taoist sect?" County Magistrate Zhang chuckled and said: "If you want to help, just say so!"
Having obtained the county magistrate's guarantee, Liu felt a sense of relief and happiness. He no longer lingered and bid farewell to leave. However, he was sent off by the county magistrate with great courtesy to temporarily stay at the post house.
Yincheng County is after all a small place, the environment of the inns are not very good. It's just that the post stations have much better food and accommodations, it's like they're similar to unit guesthouses...
"It's actually the world of the Great Tang, I really didn't expect it!" After arriving at the inn and settling in, Liu couldn't help but start talking to himself. He vaguely felt that this must have something to do with the Shengxiao Heavenly Palace!
However, the secrets of Shenxiang Palace were too many, and Liu Bu Yi also knew that he couldn't get any results. He put his mind on the main issue, and he had a faint excitement.
In this world, one can preach freely.
This put Liu Bu into a subtle excitement, whether it was his own cultivation or exchanging contribution points and incense wishes in the Tian Gong Temple of God, all were indispensable.
Liu has only over a hundred contribution points left on his body now. These contribution points, even if they are all used up, will still be able to play a huge role.
The moon slowly rose and shone on the windowsill. Liu Bu-yi had already refined all the pure energy he had absorbed into his dantian, so at this moment, facing the bright moon, he recited incantations in his mouth and pinched his fingers to form a seal. With one breath, a cold white line fell into Liu Bu-yi's dantian.
It just fell into his abdomen, and Liu Buji already felt something was wrong. Then he only moved nine times, and he felt that the evil spirit had been refined to about 70 or 80%.
And it's too yin and cold, just a bit chilly, absolutely not like the time in the upper realm, when I took a mouthful of extremely yin and cold air, almost freezing people to death.
He was stunned for half a day and suddenly came back to his senses. No wonder he felt that many things were not right in this big Tang world.
It seems that this is indeed a low-martial world. Liu Bu Yi let out a soft sigh. Even the Taiyin Qi was much weaker than the upper realm's.
He took nine rounds of Taiyin Qi in a row, operating 99 cycles. The Taiyin Qi he took tonight was all refined by Liu Buji.
It feels like my whole body is cool and refreshing, from head to toe, as if it's filled with moonlight, even my spirit has been washed clean.
At this moment, Liu Bu suddenly had a little enlightenment. Following the internet slang, the upper boundary is the high demon world, and the domineering aura has reached its peak.
Even if one has obtained the true transmission, a slight carelessness can lead to disaster or being possessed by evil spirits.
It's just that in the lower realm, these powers seem too gentle. Just suitable for their own cultivation.
Perhaps this is why Yuán Xū Guān was sent down to the mortal world by his disciples for cultivation.
What's going on in this world of Great Tang? Is this the Lower Realm Dojo where the Tongquan Sect cultivates its disciples?
"Fantastic, fantastic..."
But at this moment, a pleasant female voice clapped her hands and said:
"This humble girl has often heard that the orthodox Taoist school has a method of dressing and eating the sun and moon. I never had the chance to see it, but unexpectedly, today I can see a real master in this small station. It's really a blessing for me in three lifetimes!"
Liu was shocked and looked back, but saw that on the earthen wall of this post station, which was still growing with weeds, a woman was standing, dressed in white clothes as if made of snow, with a wheel of moonlight behind her, just like walking out of the moon.
The woman was dressed in black, but her skin was as white as snow, creating a strong contrast. She stood under the moonlight, which cast a clear glow on her, giving people an extremely shocking visual effect.
Such a scene, so picturesque and beautiful, should be in a movie's aesthetic frame, but it shouldn't be right in front of me.
It occurred to him that this place was under the jurisdiction of Xiangyang, and he remembered that in the world of Datang, this was the territory of the Yin Gu faction. Even Liu Buji had suspected the origin of County Magistrate Zhang, and at this moment, he almost confirmed the identity of this woman.
He calmed his mind and smiled slightly: "Miss, with such beauty and temperament, I'm afraid that in the Jianghu, only two factions would have such an outstanding disciple!"
