I have been slaying demons in the Demon Slayer Division for thirty years

It was dark in the mountains.

The moonlight appears on the top of the mountain, as if the Milky Way is falling from the sky.

When ordinary people see this wonderful scene, they will definitely think that it is the residence of the enlightened immortal.

The peaks are covered with century-old trees, and occasionally springs flow through them, filling them with spiritual energy and crystal clear water.

The elk and white crane beside the stream were not afraid when they saw Zhou Yi approaching. They watched him leave and continued to drink water with their heads down.

Zhou Yi walked forward along the mountain road, his pace seemed slow but actually fast, one step was three to five feet, and the bushes and thorns on both sides gave way by themselves.

After a while, I saw red walls and green tiles on the top of the mountain in the distance.

As I got closer, I could see clearly that it was a Taoist temple the size of three entrances.

The Taoist temple is hidden in the mountains and forests. It is built along the mountain. It is surrounded by ancient trees and covered by strange rocks. Only when you get closer can you see the whole picture clearly. The moonlight in the sky follows some kind of attraction and falls into the temple, shining the silver light of the Taoist temple. .

The gate was closed tightly, and I looked up at the plaque, which read three simple characters.

Mikikan.

It was evening class time, and there were faint sounds of chanting from the temple. The voices were old and young. They were reading "Wang Zhenren's Analysis of Doubts and Mysteries".

"...A real person stood respectfully, held a note and made a salute, saying: The wonderful principles of life and the subtleties of the Tao, what is the order of practice? Zhenren Wang replied..."

This volume of Taoist scriptures happens to be one of the thirteen Taoist scriptures recited in the Zhouyi.

He copied at least a thousand volumes by hand and recited it no less than ten thousand times.

Zhou Yi stood in front of the door, listened quietly to the end of the chanting, and then lightly opened the door.

The red-painted door opened without any wind, and an old but energetic voice came out: "The real person has come from afar, please come in quickly."

When he walked through the door, he saw three Taoists sitting in front of him. Below him were more than twenty disciples of both sexes, old and young, looking at Zhou Yi in surprise.

The Taoist in the middle is holding a scripture and has a green jade hairpin on his head. The Taoist on the left looks middle-aged, elegant and has a rather scholarly temperament. The Taoist on the right has an old complexion, his hands are floating and he has an immortal air.

The three of them all have faces as green as black and are dressed in green shirts, exuding vigorous wood spirit energy.

"Pindao Lingsong."

"Pindao Linghuai."

"Pindao Lingzhu."

The three Taoists cupped their hands and said, "Master, please take a seat."

Zhou Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he had already seen through the identities of the three people. They were Pine Tree, Sophora Tree, and Bamboo Chengjing.

Among the monsters, the rarest ones are plants that become spirits. Before spiritual wisdom is born, their cultivation speed is slow.

It took a lot of effort to develop spiritual wisdom, but it cannot move until it transforms. Even if it has been practiced for hundreds of years, it will not be able to run away from thunder and fire, and it will turn into ashes if it cannot bear it.

There are three thousand-year-old tree demons in a small Tianji Peak, which is absolutely unusual.

"Pindao Zhongnan Mountain Yuzhu Cave, Yun Zhongzi."

Zhou Yi cupped his hands and said, "I've heard about the name of Tianji Palace for a long time, so I'm here to look for it."

While talking, carefully observe the expressions of the three tree spirits.

Lingsong said with a smile: "Sure enough, there are experts who come here every year to look for Tianji Palace."

"The earth veins here can naturally cause the moon to fall, so it is named Luoyue Peak."

Lingzhu, who has a scholarly temperament, explained: "The three of us have been nourished by the moon for hundreds of years, but unfortunately we have never been able to transform. It just so happened that the senior Tianji Palace passed by here and took action to enlighten us."

"After that, the three of us changed Luoyue Peak to Tianji Peak to remember the grace of enlightenment."

The old Ling Huai said: "It's a pity that the secret is so vague that there will be no trace of our senior again."

"I see, that's just a shame."

Zhou Yi's spiritual consciousness swept over Tianji Peak, and it turned out to be a naturally formed formation, causing the moonlight to fall from the sky and nourishing the creatures in the mountain.

The aura of the streams in the forest and the aura of the beasts in the mountains all come from this.

While speaking, Linghuai glanced at the vase in Zhou Yi's hand from time to time, and realized the mystery of the transformation of yin and yang on it. He couldn't help but admire: "The real person can easily break through the formation in the mountain, and his practice is very exquisite. It coincides with the evening class, so it is better to talk about Taoism and mysticism." , to encourage the younger generations?"

Zhou Yi glanced at the disciples in the temple. Even the old man was full of life and nodded slightly in agreement.

"The poor man has gone too far!"

"Haha, Pindao had already prepared his seats by the time a distinguished guest arrived tonight."

Lingsong pointed to the right, and sure enough, a green futon had been prepared.

Zhou Yi flashed his figure, sat cross-legged on the futon, and asked: "Is your Taoist proficient in the method of deducing divination?"

Lingsong said: "After that senior enlightened us, he left behind a volume of Taiyi Divine Calculation. Unfortunately, it is obscure and difficult to understand. After a hundred years of practice, we can only scratch the surface of it."

"I've also learned a magical divination skill, why don't we talk about it?"

"It's what you wish for!"

When the disciples in the temple heard the words, they immediately pricked up their ears, fearing that they would miss a sentence.

Sanmu Temple is quite famous in Taizhou, especially near Nankang County. Some big families let their descendants climb Tianji Peak to seek immortality and ask questions.

Unfortunately, there is a formation on the peak, and it is difficult for those who are not destined to see the face of the immortal. So far, the temple has only accepted more than twenty disciples.

The disciples who entered the temple earlier were already hundreds of years old, and the youngest ones were only eleven or twelve years old.

On weekdays, the three masters seldom discuss the Dharma in front of their disciples, but mostly supervise the disciples in reciting their morning and evening homework.

First, Taoist practice needs to be done step by step, and it is easy to create inner demons by overthrowing the seedlings. Second, the fundamental Taoist teachings will be taught only after examining the disciple's mind.

"Secrets are hard to find, they can be found in hiding..."

Zhou Yi was the first to speak. The main source of his divination method was the magical power of covering the sun, which can be regarded as a new approach.

If you want to hide the secrets of heaven, you must first reveal the secrets.

In the process of practicing sun occultation, I naturally understood many deduction methods. The level is not low, but it is a pity that it is not systematic.

Qingsong and the others have been practicing Taiyi Shen's divination for hundreds of years and are called masters of divination. At this time, they heard Zhou Yi's story and saw another method of divination, which was completely different from ordinary magical powers.

Listening and comprehending, combined with Taiyi Divine Calculation, I suddenly understood many obstacles.

After a while, Zhou Yi stopped lecturing.

"Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

"Real talent!"

"A real person is willing to share such a wonderful method. A poor man cannot hide his clumsiness."

Qingsong said slowly: "The sky has eight gates to communicate with the eight winds. The earth has eight directions to respond to the Eight Diagrams..."

Zhou Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and Qingsong actually directly described the Taiyi Divine Calculation Scripture. It has 3,800 words in total, including divination of yin and yang, directions, Yuan Chen, stars, etc., and also includes more than ten kinds of divination magical powers.

Qingsong first recited the Taiyi Divine Number, then turned back and began to talk about his experience.

"The divination algorithm of the Sixteen Gods, the Son God is called Landlord, the Ugly God is called Yang De..."

Over the past hundred years of enlightenment and practice, Qingsong has nearly perfected the practice of Taiyi Shenshu, otherwise he would not be considered a distinguished guest today.

Understanding the Book of Changes word for word, I have benefited a lot, and my magical power of covering the sun has reached the state of great success.

The disciples in Guanzhong were able to understand a few things at first, but later they could only recite and memorize the real person's words silently. After that, it became too profound and they could not even recite and memorize it silently.

Until the zenith of the moon.

The moonlight fell into the view like a waterfall, and the clear spiritual light brushed through, and the disciples woke up from their confusion.

Looking up, the three real people and the real Yun Zhongzi had already disappeared.

…

In the wing room.

Zhou Yi closed his eyes and meditated. Since he entered Sanmu Temple, everything he saw and heard was strange.

In particular, Qingsong taught Taiyi divine arithmetic, which made Zhou Yi wary. If there was no treasure to protect the Yin God, he would have thought he had fallen into an illusion.

All the scenes in Sanmu Temple are perfect. The Taoist temple in the deep mountains, devoted to practice, and harmonious coexistence with all spirits, can be called the Immortal Sect in Zhouyi's dream.

"But how can anyone in this world teach you the principles of superior magical powers when you first meet them?"

Zhou Yi admitted that his vision was much darker, his character was somewhat affected, and he had doubts about immortals, demons, gods, and Buddhas.

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't figure it out. He stood on the roof of the Taoist temple and looked up at the shining moonlight in the sky.

At this time, the moon is at the zenith, and the green pines and the others are sitting cross-legged in the sky, absorbing and refining as much lunar moonlight as possible.

The three of them were able to stand out from the creatures in Tianji Peak and turn into spirits. It was not because they were born spiritual trees, but because they grew where the moonlight fell most intensely.

After transforming into another form, he established Sanmu Temple here to accept human disciples and teach Taoism.

Zhou Yi looked at the disciples in the temple, who had woken up from listening to the sutras, but still did not leave. Instead, they were bathing in the moonlight and practicing.

The lunar moonlight can nourish the soul. These disciples refine a few strands every day, and the probability of condensing the yin spirit is several times higher than that of ordinary people.

The light in Zhou Yi's hand flashed, and the Mingyue Baoyu appeared in his hand.

This rare treasure of the fox tribe can gather moonlight. Since the Yin Shen was condensed in the Book of Changes, its effectiveness has been almost useless.

What made Zhou Yi miss about Mingyue Baoyu was not Hu Ling'er or Feng Ling'er, but the texture pattern carved on it.

"After consulting many classics and asking many colleagues, there has never been any legend about the osmanthus tree and the Jade Rabbit. The only relevant wild history records record that the Taiyin Star is related to the demon clan..."

Zhou Yi was meditating, and the jade in his hand flew up into the air.

Hanging in the sky, endless moonlight pours into it, blooming with dazzling brilliance.

Lingsong and the others noticed that the moonlight had dropped sharply, and when they lowered their heads, they discovered that almost 90% of them had merged into the Mingyue Baoyu.

They have been refining moonlight for hundreds of years, so naturally they ended their practice on this day and landed next to Zhou Yi.

Just as he was about to ask, Mingyue Baoyu changed again.

The gem's spiritual light flickers, reflecting a half-illusory and half-real picture, with undulating mountains and crisscrossing rivers, which seems to be a map of somewhere.

In the center of the map is Mingyue Baoyu, located on an unnamed mountain peak, with strange writing written on the right side of the map.

"Tomb of Taiyin!"

Lingsong murmured to himself, frowning slightly: "It was recorded in ancient demon script..."

Zhou Yi waved his hand and photographed the Mingyue Baoyu. After being isolated from the moonlight, the illusory picture scroll disappeared, and a message was transmitted to the Yin God.

In the tomb of the mythical beast Taiyin, immortal soldiers were buried with him during his lifetime!

Zhou Yi, who was originally very interested, suddenly lost interest.

Other monks and even the True Immortal Arhat must have been overjoyed to hear the news about the immortal weapon, but it was a pity that Zhou Yi was not surprised at all. Purple Ying, green rope, divine shuttle and golden pillar, none of them are better than the demon clan's immortal soldiers, let alone the golden dragon cutting the apricot yellow flag.

"Fellow Taoist, I didn't mean to pry, if you are worried..."

Lingsong said: "We can swear an oath and never reveal even a single word."

Linghuai and Lingzhu nodded in agreement. The scroll looked like a treasure map, recorded in ancient demon texts, or related to some kind of treasure or inheritance.

"There's no need for that. It's not an urgent matter."

Zhou Yi played with the jade for a moment, then said goodbye and returned to the house to continue to meditate on the magical power of covering the sun.

…

early morning.

The rising sun is full of purple energy.

The three of Lingsong sat cross-legged on the top of the peak, and together with their disciples, they absorbed the purple energy of the morning sun and increased the magic power in their bodies.

Chaoyang Purple Qi is the special vitality released when the sun is first born. It is Zhongzheng and peaceful, also known as Shaoyang Qi. It is the most common spiritual object in the world that contains pure Yang Qi.

Whether it is a Taoist monk who is an expert in refining gods or a boy who has just entered the Taoist path, refining the Chaoyang Purple Qi is a compulsory course.

Zhou Yi watched from a distance, while Lingsong and three others taught their disciples.

If any disciple does not feel comfortable performing the exercises, he will immediately teach them through words and deeds and correct their mistakes.

Or if a disciple is impatient and attracts too much purple energy from the rising sun, causing the Yang Fire to rise in vain, he must immediately cast a spell to regulate the aura.

Lingsong and the others have thousands of years of magic power, which is comparable to that of a third-grade god-refining expert. They look aloof wherever they are placed, so how can they teach their disciples so amiably.

When the sun rises high and the purple energy of the morning sun turns into the true fire of the sun, the morning practice ends.

Lingsong had long discovered that Zhou Yi was watching, so he came over and asked, "Fellow Taoist, how are the disciples in the temple?"

Zhou Yi praised: "The breath is clear and the magic power is pure. It must be the authentic Xuanmen!"

Linghuai nodded and said: "That's natural. Although we are demons, we admire the Taoist sect and have always taken it as our duty to promote Taoism."

Monster clan!

When Zhou Yi heard this, his soul suddenly became clear.

Looking at the three Lingsong demons again, they were looking at me with strange eyes, obviously a deliberate reminder.

"The formation here can actually deflect my Yin Shen's senses. Is it definitely not arranged by three fellow Taoists?"

Before he finished speaking, the majestic magic power circulated and instantly imprisoned the three demons of Lingsong.

"As expected of a first-class Yangshen!"

Lingsong was not afraid, and explained: "Senior, please don't be angry. We are the guardians of the outer gate of Tianji Palace, and we are sitting here as a blessing."

"What kind of fate?"

Zhou Yi's eyes flickered, and he saw that the auras of the three demons were still clear. The clear aura they had cultivated was not demonic aura, so he did not kill them with a palm.

"Every year, many monks search for heaven's secrets. However, heaven's secrets are not revealed casually. Too much divination will inevitably lead to divine punishment."

Lingsong said: "The sect would be cut off, so we established the rules of destiny..."

Zhou Yi nodded slightly to express his understanding.

Divination will indeed bring divine punishment, which is also the reason why many magic experts suffer from five shortcomings and three deficiencies. It is not a divine punishment that leads to five disadvantages and three shortcomings, but it is a way to weaken the divine punishment so as not to directly turn into ashes.

Lingsong continued: "After that, twelve outer gates of Tianji Palace will be set up in Yunzhou, and the guardian will test the fate. Only those with enough fate will be sent to the location of Tianji Palace."

"How about the fate of Pindao?"

Zhou Yi slightly loosened his magic power, but there was an undisguised murderous intention.

Lingsong and the others seemed to have no sense of murderous intention at all, and shook their heads to express that Zhou Yi Yuanfa was not enough.

"Senior's magic power reaches the sky. He waved his hand to imprison us. He is also the best among the first-class people. However..."

Lingsong explained: "Senior's body is too evil, and he is entangled with the demon clan, so he may be in trouble. We sent a message to the sect and couldn't let our senior return empty-handed, so we presented a scroll of Taiyi God's fortune."

"The evil spirit is too strong, isn't it?"

Zhou Yi had an idea and no longer used magic power to cover the seal.

The evil spirit rose into the sky, the whole body flashed with dark red light, and countless demons were faintly wailing, and the area of ​​100 feet was instantly transformed into a demonic realm.

The faces of Lingsong and the others turned from green to green, and they kept reciting the Heart-Cleaning Mantra to avoid being tempted by evil sounds and falling into the path of demons.

Zhou Yi put away his evil spirit and turned into a handsome Taoist again.

"Is this enough for me?"
