Here is the Shangqing Hall, which is naturally a prestigious place on the Four Regulations Mountain. With the deputy abbot of Jiuding Iron Monastery and the junior abbot, such honored guests, many disciples and elders have come as well.
Laogong's such postures and actions make the disciples and elders look at each other in confusion.
It took a while, Liu Taiyuan's face finally calmed down, and he whispered, "This trip is for the purpose of seeking the remaining pill from Lu Daochan."
"Zhiyi, after taking the hundred corpse entrance pill, can only seal his soul temporarily in his body. Every time he should lose his soul, the vital soul hits his skull at the entrance. After these days, although he hasn't lost his soul, he always feels that it's getting close again. His fontanel bone is gradually deforming and about to break."
At this time, Da Ling nodded and agreed: "It is indeed so. If one can take the Emperor's corpse pill, the body will undergo another level of change. I speculate that my teacher's purpose in refining that pill was actually to save people. If a real person encounters a bottleneck, they will instantaneously decompose during the process of taking the pill, and the process of nurturing the corpse will only take a few days or at most ten or twelve days."
"The mummification also makes the body rigid and difficult to be injured by knives and guns, which may be able to suppress the soul."
The two have managed to make their meanings clear.
The effect of the Emperor's Corpse Pill has become completely clear to me.
It's quite coincidental that this could indeed be effective, for using it to manifest the Yin Spirit!
"Please, ask Lu Daochan to lend a hand. The Emperor's Corpse Pill you have left is of little use to you. It is Zhang Zhiyi's lifesaving medicine. Mr. DAI said that it is difficult to find medicinal materials, and Jiuding Iron Monastery indeed has no other choice but to come and ask for it." Zhang Zhiyi followed up by opening his mouth, embracing his fists and bowing deeply again and again.
"The Jiuding Iron Monastery has prepared a heavy gift. Mr. Dai, the same heavy gift is also sent." Liu Taiyuan said in a deep voice.
Old Gong's eyes flickered, and he gave Zhang Zhiyi a glance, making a sound of approval: "Why didn't you say that earlier? A phone call to Mr. Wu would have done. The pill is left for you guys now."
Zhang Zhiyi's expression slightly changed.
Liu Taiyuan's pupils constricted as well.
Da Lin's demeanor seemed stiff.
"This matter, cannot be joked about." Liu Taiyuan opened his mouth in a low voice, and his tone became heavier.
"Chu, Old Liu with his hook, which eye do you think Grandpa Huang is joking with you, your ass eye?" Old Gong's face lost its playfulness.
However, he disappeared.
The moment of noon was too short.
Liu Taiyuan grunted and his face turned a bit purple.
Zhang Zhiyi looked at me in a disoriented manner, trying to smile and speak.
"Old Gong indeed does not deceive people. The medicine of the Corpse Pill is too incredible to be believed, it is the heart of the Corpse that loves Yang, and once taken, it may transform into a Corpse. Such an evil pill, I have already given to another Daoist sect, and it has been a while. Perhaps it has been completely eliminated by thunder and fire to prevent future harm." I looked at Zhang Zhiyi in calmness and spoke sincerely.
At that moment, I felt more certain that giving the Emperor's Corpse Pill to Tang Wu was the right decision.
Otherwise, if Jiuding Iron Monastery came to demand it, I would indeed have a hard time not giving it.
The pill is in the hands of Yunjin Mountain, and the decision-making authority will not be in Tang Wu's hands, but rather in Yunjin Mountain's Tianshi. Whether he wants to destroy the pill or give it to his favorite disciple Zhang Xuanyi, all depend on his whim.
Zhang Xuanyi will either continue on the Path of Succession or persist in serious cultivation, and this will have no connection with me or Tang Wu.
By a twist of fate, if Zhang Zhiyi cannot obtain the Emperor's Corpse Pill, he will have to maintain the status quo or find another way.
"Which Daoist sect is it? Can you give a contact number?" Zhang Zhiyi asked in a low voice.
"Senior Brother, do you have the contact information for Master Yunjin Mountain? Or any other elders who have the contact information for Daoist Master Zhang Xuanyi?" I turned my head and asked He You Tian.
"I have Zhang Xuanyi's contact information here. He contacted me that day, and I gave him my number as well." Si Yan stood up from a chair, took a few steps forward, and approached us.
Zhang Zhiyi's face showed a faint smile of gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Senior."
He even bowed respectfully to Si Yan.
After getting the number, Zhang Zhiyi immediately dialed it. He smiled at us, holding the phone with both hands. It was apparent that he was nervous as he took two steps forward towards the door of the Shangqing Hall.
Liu Taiyuan's demeanor once again became friendly, and he smiled at us.
Everyone could hear Zhang Zhiyi's words.
After the phone was connected, he first identified himself before stating his purpose.
Later, except for Zhang Zhiyi, the voice on the other side should only be me and He You Tian who could hear it.
Zhang Xuanyi replied in a cold tone: "Presumptuous fantasies."
The phone was immediately hung up.
Zhang Zhiyi continued to dial the number, and his face gradually stiffened, with an obvious sense of panic.
But after that, the phone could not be dialed through.
"Return all the items that Jiuding Iron Monastery and Mr. Dai Lin have sent." He You Tian and Liu Taiyuan bowed, saying, "It seems that you all still have a long journey ahead."
Zhang Zhiyi finally accepted the reality, knowing that Zhang Xuanyi would not answer the phone.
"Grandfather Taiyuan, let's quickly go to Yunjin Mountain! Don't let them really destroy the pill with lightning and fire! It's an utter waste of heavenly resources!" In his haste, Zhang Zhiyi didn't even bother to speak with us and hurriedly walked towards the mountain direction.
The disciples of Jiuding Iron Monastery, carrying Liu Taiyuan, rushed after them with rapid strides.
Dai Lin was left behind, and he deeply clasped his hands towards me, his eyes carrying a sense of depth.
"I'm not sure how my family's ancestor is doing. Has he also been sent to Yunjin Mountain for disposal?"
"No, that hasn't happened yet. The evil spirit body of the alchemist has been dealt with separately, and it has not been fully implemented. I will definitely inform Mr. Dai Lin at that time." I replied without changing color.
"Then we will await your good news, Lu Daochan." After saying this, Dai Lin followed the people of Jiuding Iron Monastery and left.
There were also many disciples of the Four Regulations Mountain who hurriedly followed behind, carrying various gifts sent by Jiuding Iron Monastery.
Zhang Xuanyi was too anxious, and Liu Taiyuan was also too anxious; they had forgotten the things.
Shortly, the peace of the Shangqing Hall was restored.
He You Tian stroked his beard and shook his head: "It was a fruitless trip."
I am even more certain that Jiuding Iron Monastery will also come back empty-handed.
Whether it's destroying the pill or keeping it, it has nothing to do with Zhang Zhiyi.
"I think we can keep them here," He You Tian mused.
I shook my head and explained sincerely, "Not to mention controlling them, even as a point of reference, they can't even manage to discuss and support each other. Once they have gained some benefits, they will turn against each other. It's better to have fewer forces than to add unnecessary variables."
My conversation with He You Tian was not understandable to the elders.
Even Si Yan, the same level of understanding was also vague.
When the group of disciples who left returned, they came back empty-handed, having returned the things.
I again explained to He You Tian that we would set off tomorrow to avoid any misunderstandings.
He You Tian nodded and said: "Little Brother, please rest well tonight. I'll start preparing now."
We did not continue to stay in the Shangqing Hall; all the immortals left, and it was indeed time for He You Tian to settle the mountain gate.
I did not return to the sixth palace, but just walked around randomly within the mountain gate.
Without realizing it, I walked to the dining area and decided to have a meal.
Afterward, I somehow ended up by the stream where Grandmaster Ciyi possessed me and allowed me to have a realization.
The sound of the water gurgling softly, like the melodious wind chimes in the mountains, for a moment, it makes one's mind and spirit feel refreshed.
So I stood by the water and listened quietly to this sound.
The greatest good is like water.
Suddenly, these words appeared in my mind.
