MTL - Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune Starts From Tianshi Mansion-Chapter 12 Choose a mentor
Chapter 12 12. Choose a mentor
There were two people sitting in Elder Yuan's cave.
In the main seat, there is a young Taoist priest, wearing a purple Taoist robe. He looks like he is only in his twenties or thirties.
The Taoist smiles on his face and makes people feel like a spring breeze without opening his mouth.
Yuan Mobai.
The closed disciple of the previous Celestial Master, the junior disciple of the contemporary Celestial Master.
Speaking of which, Wang Guiyuan looked to be around thirty years old, but based on his appearance, he seemed to be older than his master, Elder Yuan.
I don’t know whether I should say that Elder Yuan has good looks, or that Senior Brother Wang is mature.
Unlike the owner of the cave who is as warm as the spring breeze, the other side of the cave is a completely opposite scene.
In the guest seat, a young girl was completely wrapped in a black cloak, only a small face was exposed, and her skin was so white that she did not look like a living person.
Fortunately, she didn't mean to overshadow the guest. The slight chill only stayed on one side of the cave and did not affect the atmosphere of the entire cave.
After Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan came forward to greet him, Elder Yuan looked at Lei Jun with a smile: "The spirit is hidden, and the edge is restrained. He is really a top-notch young man."
His tone was gentle and kind, which made Lei Jun feel the same as when he first read the letter.
Elder Yuan looked at Xu Yuanzhen aside and said, "Senior nephew Yuanzhen has good eyesight."
Xu Yuanzhen: “I didn’t pay attention to his talent at first.”
Lei Jun: “…”
Wang Guiyuan: “…”
Elder Yuan’s smile continued: “Then why did you take him back to the mountain in the first place?”
Xu Yuanzhen: "...Although I really don't want to admit it, I think he is quite a match."
The purple-robed nun, whose expression had always been calm and could even be called indifferent, changed for the first time. Her brows furrowed and she looked Lei Jun up and down again. Her expression did not look like someone who had seen Yu Yuan close.
It’s not aimed at Lei Jun.
She doesn’t like similar feelings when she comes into contact with anyone.
Lei Jun: "When I first saw my senior sister, I felt friendly."
Xu Yuanzhen: "Come less."
Thanks for the first fortune after coming to this world... Lei Jun smiled.
Mr. Yuan Chang and his disciples did not seem surprised by Xu Yuanzhen's appearance.
Wang Guiyuan sighed: "To be honest, I was really worried that Junior Brother Lei started a little late in getting started. Looking at it now, I am worrying too much."
This is not the first person to lament that Lei Jun started late and was too old when he started practicing.
Lei Jun can also understand.
After all, for practitioners in this world, the level of cultivation is not only related to talent, will and strength, but also closely related to life span and personal physical condition.
As the level of cultivation improves, the life status of practitioners is indeed no longer the same as that of ordinary people.
However, just like the sun, moon and stars, they seem to last forever, but in fact they also have their own lifespan and will also grow old and die.
Monks in this world also have a period of vigorous growth in their adolescence, a period of slow growth in their prime where most of them can only maintain their status, and a period of old age where they begin to slowly decline, and finally a very rapid twilight period.
The first-level Qi Refining monks are particularly pressed for time, and their life span is similar to that of ordinary people, most of whom are no more than a hundred years old.
If you want to extend your life, your best hope is to successfully break through to the second heaven and build a foundation.
Only when the foundation is successfully established can the life span be extended to 200 years.
But there is not much time left for Qi Refining monks to improve.
This growth window, which is most suitable for cultivation, is actually only about the first quarter of one's life.
That is, about twenty to twenty-five years ago.
After the age of twenty-five, the speed of improvement in cultivation will slow down greatly.
Qi refining monks after the age of twenty-five can try to refine magic weapons, practice combat techniques, and accumulate more experience to make their combat effectiveness stronger.
However, as the progress of cultivation is improved, it starts to get twice the result with half the effort.
The prime period from the age of twenty-five to about fifty is roughly the peak of a Qi Refining monk’s personal practical ability. However, from the perspective of improving one’s cultivation level, it is more like a plateau period.
However, there is still some hope. Although the possibility of continuing to rise has plummeted, it will not be cut off.
However, for those of you who have not yet established the foundation at the age of fifty, congratulations, you have reached the realm of Qi refining in this life, and your 100th birthday is waiting for you.
And your personal status will start to slowly decline around the age of fifty. When you enter your twilight years around the age of seventy-five, everything will fall off a cliff.
Some of the stewards and shopkeepers I met earlier at Qingyundanghetan were also Taoist boys under the Tianshi Mansion.
The reason why they left Longhu Mountain and no longer studied Taoism, and had other errands arranged by the government, was because they were getting older, their cultivation had stagnated, and they had to give up the Taoism eventually.
Lei Jun came to Longhu Mountain Tianshi Mansion with Xu Yuanzhen when he was eighteen years old. Fortunately, in the more than a year after entering, his cultivation level continued to improve, making rapid progress, faster than many Taoist boys.
Wang Guiyuan sighed: "In any case, Junior Brother Lei has a good understanding and a commendable ambition. Now his talent has finally been revealed, and the future is bright."
He smiled slightly: "If the Hidden Dragon Spirit Body can continue to transform and improve, there will also be the Soaring Dragon Holy Body and the legendary Emperor Dragon Immortal Body.
Of course, if Junior Brother Lei has another chance, it may be possible for Qianlong’s spiritual body to transform and improve into other more excellent cultivation physiques. "
Lei Jun: “It’s not good to expect too much, but I still want to thank Senior Brother Wang for his kind words.”
Xu Yuanzhen: “It’s less than two months until the grand ceremony of delivering the message, and the master has not yet come out of seclusion.”
Elder Yuan: "Senior brother, the head of the family, had a decree leaked earlier and will be out of the country during the New Year. Please be patient and don't be impatient."
Xu Yuanzhen nodded, then looked at Lei Jun:
“Since the master has come out of seclusion, do you want to give it a try?
You have a better chance of awakening the hidden dragon spirit body now. "
In other words, if there is no hidden dragon spirit body, the chance is actually very small... Lei Jun is not surprised by this conclusion.
The chance that was originally very small depended entirely on Xu Yuanzhen's face and the Tianshi's own thoughts.
The personal transmission from the Heavenly Master has a different meaning after all.
Not to mention that Tianshi himself is the number one expert in Longhu Mountain and one of the countless giants in Taoism in the world. He personally teaches his disciples and is unmatched by other elders.
The treatment in other aspects is not comparable to that of ordinary disciples.
Not only will various cultivation resources be accumulated on a priority basis, but the various blessed places and caves controlled by the Tianshi Mansion will also be opened to the Tianshi personally.
For example, the fairyland shrouded in green thunder on the top of Longhu Mountain is called Shangqing Leifu Cave.
The Li family's children have become more and more high-profile in recent years and are still not allowed to enter without authorization.
But the disciples of the Heavenly Master can do it.
Perhaps some people think this arrangement is unfair.
However, the direct descendants of the Heavenly Master have always been the best among their peers in the mansion.
Looking at the world, he is still a genius among geniuses.
The objects of comparison are the leading figures of their generation from other major aristocratic families and holy places.
It is not surprising that good steel is used on the blade.
Lei Jun was mediocre before, so it would be very difficult for the Heavenly Master to make an exception.
Now that he has ascended to a spiritual body, the situation is naturally different.
Lei Jun looked at Elder Yuan at this time.
The other party was as gentle as before, not minding at all, and his eyes showed encouragement.
But the light ball in Lei Jun’s mind suddenly flashed again, and words appeared:
ifies. 】
Lei Jun agrees with this.
Most of life is like this.
If you take the right step one step, you may be about to take off, but you may miss the next step.
It requires continuous correct choices for destiny to truly take hold.
After the light ball flashed, two sticks flew out this time and appeared in Lei Jun's sea of consciousness:
【Win the lottery, be down-to-earth, choose the famous teacher in front of you, and get the fourth-grade opportunity together, seize the opportunity, concentrate on practice, accumulate a lot, but the cause and effect are entangled, you need to be cautious in the future, good luck. 】
【If you win the lottery, you have high aspirations and strive for the chance to reach the sky in one step, but the road is bumpy and fierce. 】
Lei Jun was surprised.
The fortune-telling is as vague as the previous times, but combined with the real situation and current situation, it becomes clear at a glance.
Winning the lottery, choose the right famous teacher...The one with the best subtext may not be the most suitable?
If you win the lottery, it will be like a mirror, a flower in the water, a moon in the water...So, if you can't be a direct disciple of the Heavenly Master, it will even be very bumpy in the future.
… Could it be that the contemporary Celestial Master, a mighty Taoist giant, is about to collapse or is unlucky?
