Lishan Mother said, "Go and check on those of your younger sisters who practice the Tao. They are too slow in their cultivation, each with heavy thoughts, almost exhausting the spiritual essence they had at first. As their elder, you should go and see them; perhaps from your perspective, you can discover issues that I cannot."
"Yes, disciple, I will comply."
Deng Chanyu passed through the LaoMu Palace and the SanXiao Hall, arriving at the back mountain temple, like a class monitor checking discipline, standing behind the door to peer in.
The sight revealed that the once youthful and charismatic younger sisters had all aged.
Several of them seemed to have put in too much effort, and white hair had appeared at their temples.
Over a decade of arduous cultivation has stood like a mountain, separating now from the past. Previously on one side of the mountain, and now on the other.
Fei Zhong's granddaughter has passed the age of forty, no longer enjoying the grandeur of her youth. Now, she looks deeply troubled, her sleeves and wrist adorned with black ink. She is lying on the desk, diligently copying scriptures with great concentration. (Chapter 1030)
Zhong Yuyan, the great-granddaughter of Huang Feibiao, was also quite old. According to the tradition of Lishi Mountain, she was holding a cast-iron bar as thick as her arm, and hard-hammering it on a stone to sharpen it.
Her head was covered with a magical charm that prevented sound from spreading outwards, so it wouldn't disturb others.
Deng Chanyu shook her head in disbelief.
The unexpected practice of cultivating mind through grinding iron bars proposed by Lishi Mother has been inherited in a traditional manner now. Deng Chanyu has done it, and so has Nezha. In the future, if Taibai Jing reincarnates as Li Tai Bai, he probably will also come to grind an iron bar.
Well, the method of grinding iron bars is indeed helpful in cultivating one's path to the Tao and strengthening beliefs, at least it was effective for Nezha and it also helped Deng Chanyu, who was initially restless. However, using it as a means of cultivation is somewhat inappropriate.
She has a closer relationship with Nu Wa's disciples than a mother-daughter bond. Lishi Mother has even asked her for help, and she slightly activated her spiritual power by holding a spell, lightly breathing on it, and the wind carrying three or two leaves of fallen leaves burst into the quiet room. In less than three breaths, the female disciples all fell down one by one.
This is a famous Daoist spell, Huang Liang Yimeng.
In their dreams, they will experience another chapter of life, indulging in the prosperity and wealth that they may not have noticed but deeply desire in their hearts.
The dream of Huang Liang Yimeng does indeed require a whole night.
During this period, Deng Chanyu sat and discussed with Lishi Mother, with Lishi Mother speaking and her listening. However, occasionally, she could also respond with one or two sentences out of every ten.
Lishi Mother sighed, "Your talent for cultivating the Tao surpasses what I had expected, and your opportunities are also sufficient. Those female disciples can never compare to you."
"Ha ha ha, I never expected you to be so generous with your praise. It feels quite embarrassing." Deng Chanyu couldn't help but laugh. Lishi Mother also smiled slightly. In their words, there was actually a hidden meaning, both of them were actually laughing at the subject itself. They heard that the beautiful female warriors they had selected were so incompetent, and Nu Wa might be quite frustrated.
"Unknown where Master is now, is he still safe?" Deng Chanyu was a bit worried about Nu Wa.
Since deciding to look for the Chaos Pearl, she had not received any "Roaming" calls from Nu Wa for many years. At first, she thought it was wonderful that she could save a great deal of merit. Later, she started looking forward to the day when Nu Wa might come and chat with her for a while.
Even if it meant sacrificing half of her merits, she still hoped to hear Nu Wa's voice once again.
The problem was that there was no news from Nu Wa's side, and without the Lishi Mother still being in Hong Xian and in good health, she even feared that something had gone wrong on Nu Wa's side. Chaos is a place where accidents happen frequently, and anything happening there is just too normal.
Lishi Mother said confidently, "The essence has moved far away from the Primordial Chaos, and I can only faintly sense her presence. Rest assured, her strength is above that of the other sages, and she won't have any problems."
Lishi Mother accompanied Deng Chanyu for an hour and then went to meditate and practice.
The sages consumed vast amounts of magical power in the Chaos, and they themselves could convert Chaos qi into Hong Xian qi, and then further into saintly magical power. However, this method was very inefficient. The clones left in Hong Xian assumed this "logistical" task, devoting ten hours or more each day to cultivate and make up for the huge consumption on the essence side.
It was already very difficult for Lishi Mother to accompany her and discuss some mysteries of the path of cultivation for a while.
Deng Chanyu didn't stop the elderly mother. She also returned to the back mountain and practiced in her jade pavilion.
Hao Tian's strategy to use the techniques of Chaos Gods to fight Chaos Gods sounds a bit absurd and overstretched, but it is a helpless choice.
Deng Chanyu's choice is self-reliance; she seizes every moment to cultivate.
As long as she can attain the status of a Supreme Ultimate Great Array Treasure-ranked Immortal, she will be invincible.
If the Chaos Gods become too powerful even for Hongjun Lao Deng to withstand, she will flee with her husband and children. If the Primordial Chaos cannot be defended, can we go to Pan Gu's world? If Pan Gu's world is also lost, she will go to the Shengiao World.
If they suffer consecutive defeats and lose the Shengiao World as well, she will have no choice but to find a place on the most remote edge of the Chaos to settle. If there is no other option, she will have to surrender. In any case, she must survive.
What stands in front of her now is not the difficulty of attaining the status of Supreme Ultimate Great Array Treasure, but rather the need for time - a lot of time.
From level one to ten, it can be understood as the newbie period, where all the freshmen who have just become immortals are in this stage. One hundred experience points can make one level up.
Her current stage as a Great Array Treasure-ranked Immortal is from level 95 to 255. Not only is the range enormous, but the required experience points are also astronomical.
There is no shortcut here. Even the initial Three Treasures, Nu Wa, and the Two Western Sages had to accumulate their profound Dao-based slowly and steadily.
Pursuing speed excessively and failing to lay a solid foundation are actually a waste of one's own talent and potential.
This time, the black fire burned through five layers of space. According to her explanation, it was caused by the collision of two different attributes of chaos characteristics. In actuality, it's because the quality of her repair was poor, just slightly better than poorly constructed concrete. If too much force is applied, it's like breaking through with a snap.
She had no choice. The cultivation process required too much time, and she had to sacrifice the quality of her work.
The next day.
The next day, Deng Chanyu roughly assessed the effects of the Huang Liang Dream. Since each person's inner state is different, their dream experiences varied. Overall, the results were pleasing.
These female disciples who were chosen by the Lishi Mother all broke through the pleasures and sorrows of human life, and were willing to continue their cultivation on the Lishi Mountain, never regretting a hundred deaths.
She gathered all the female disciples together and gave them another round of encouragement with a mix of pep talks and "big baozi" (a metaphor for something desirable or highly anticipated, similar to a 'big carrot').
She felt that the effect was sufficient, and then she floated away, returning to Emei Mountain.
The female disciples have aspirations to become immortals, and Deng Chanyu also dreams of attaining the status of Supreme Ultimate Great Array Treasure. As a veteran, she cannot slack off either.
