Lü Dongbin showed no restraint, his voice echoing throughout the main hall of Tianmang Temple, and for a moment, nearly a thousand heavenly immortals and numerous Wanxiang True People were shocked beyond measure.
"Donghua Shangxian wants to take in that little girl from Hei Bai Xue Gong?"
"How could Lü Dongbin accept such a young girl?"
"Lü Dongbin's eyes are so high, even when we wanted to worship him as a master, he didn't even bother! But how about today..."
Many of the fairies present couldn't help but feel a little jealous...
It's a great opportunity to worship under the door of the ancestor of Tao! They have no way to be choosy, so generally they retreat and seek the next best thing, which is to worship under the door of the true immortal heavenly god.
Lü Dongbin is also one of the top-ranking True Immortal Heavenly Deities, with a grand background, and he is also good at teaching his disciples. Moreover, Lü Dongbin is a sentimental person, once he chooses someone as his disciple, he will go all out to help him. In contrast, some other True Immortal Heavenly Deities focus solely on 'cultivating the Tao' and do not care about their disciples.
Lü Dongbin?
"Is that the legendary Lü Dongbin?" Those Wanxiang True People, such as Jiǔ Sǐ Zhēnrén, Cāng Wū Kuí, Xiàng Tiān Xiào, Shǎo Yán Xuān and others, all had their eyes reddened.
They actually broke into the top 96, some even made it to the top 12 and top 6!
Lü Dongbin's great name, even ordinary people... are likely to have heard of it, as in some legends, such as Hou Yi, Kuafu, and the Eight Immortals of the Upper Cavern, there are indeed many stories about Lü Dongbin being the leader of the Eight Immortals of the Upper Cavern!
……
Although they were jealous, the fairies also knew that Lü Dongbin was just this kind of person.
"Are you willing?" Lü Dongbin asked again.
Yu Wei was stunned, and this sudden surprise had left her somewhat bewildered. Of course she was willing! Who wouldn't want to be a disciple of Lü Dongbin? This was probably the next best choice after becoming a disciple of the founder of Taoism.
Ke and Ji Ning had just formed a Daoist partnership, were they going to separate already?
Yu Wei turned her head and looked at Ji Ning in the distance.
Ji Ning understood Yu Wei's thoughts, although he was reluctant, but also knew that Yu Wei was determined to follow her path, so he nodded lightly.
"Don't be reluctant to part with your little lover." Lü Dongbin saw Yu Wei turn her head to look at Ji Ning, and said, "Your little lover will definitely worship under the gate of the True Immortal Heavenly God. He will definitely be taken by the True Immortal Heavenly God to point out for a period of time. So even if you don't worship me as your master, it won't take long before Ji Ning leaves this Great Xia world."
Yu Wei understood and glanced at Ji Ning in the distance. Ji Ning nodded repeatedly with a hint of eye contact.
"How long can I ask?" Yu Wei asked nervously.
"It will be at most a few decades, or perhaps a century." Lü Dongbin said with a smile, "You don't have to worry. Once I find out that Ji Ning has returned to the Great Xia world, I will also quickly send you back, and reunite you with your little lover."
Yu Wei eagerly asked: "Can that make Ji Ning also worship the predecessor as a teacher?" She knew that Lü Dongbin was a generation of sword immortals, very suitable for teaching Ji Ning.
"I also want to." Lü Dongbin shook his head and sighed, "Unfortunately, your Great Summer Emperor refused to do so." As he spoke, he glanced at the Summer Emperor.
Xia Huang sat beside him, smiling but saying nothing.
It's clear... there's no room for negotiation in this matter!
Yu Wei nodded and immediately knelt down respectfully, saying: "Disciple Yu Wei pays respects to Master."
"Hahaha……" Lü Dongbin laughed, "Alright alright, being able to take you as my good disciple makes coming to this Immortal Fate Conference worthwhile. Yu Wei, go and reunite with your little lover again. After the conference is over, we will be leaving the Great Xia World."
"Yes, Master." Yu Wei immediately returned to Ji Ning's side.
……
"Congratulations." Yu Wei was delighted that her younger martial brother's Daoist partner could pay respects to Lü Dongbin, which was a great joy.
"Ji Ning, after this gathering of immortals disperses and all the true immortals and heavenly gods leave, Master will also take me away from the Great Xia world." Yu Wei's eyes were filled with reluctance.
Ji Ning gently grasped Yu Wei's hand: "Both of us are devoted to the Tao, such an opportunity is hard to come by, how can we miss it? Moreover, I will also be worshiping under the True Immortal Heaven God Gate, and later on will also be following Master's side for a long time... will also leave the Great Xia world."
Although unable to pay respects to the founder of Taoism...
Ke Bai can worship a true immortal heavenly god, and it's also considered to have a backing! Moreover, the overall situation of the three realms can be understood more clearly! Ji Ning still decided to follow the true immortal heavenly god to cultivate in seclusion for a period of time.
Yu Wei nodded: "Master also said, I'm afraid it will take me away for tens of years at the shortest and hundreds of years at the longest. Once you return to the Great Xia world... Master will know as soon as possible and will let me come back quickly."
"Let's work together." Ji Ning said softly, "We must all pass through tribulations and become celestial immortals, truly living a long life together."
"Long life together." Yu Wei also nodded, her eyes were a bit red.
To be able to live with the one you love for a lifetime is truly wonderful.
"But can I really spend eternity with Jining?" Yu Wei thought back to her past life, and a wave of fear rose up in her heart. "No matter what, I would rather my soul scatter than harm Jining in the slightest. Before I die, at least everything was beautiful."
******
One of the billions of small worlds in the three realms.
This is a beautiful world with birds singing and flowers fragrant, where the customs are simple and honest. Although it's divided into three countries, there are more verbal sparring matches than actual large-scale wars, as cultivators occasionally engage in trials to decide the interests of their respective nations.
"Whoosh."
Space was torn apart directly.
Bai Yi Xia Huang came from the void and arrived in this small world, soon arriving at a mountain with a Taoist temple called "Chang Qing Guan". This Chang Qing Guan was very ordinary, its reputation was not well-known in this small world, only a few towns around the temple knew of it.
People in this small world have no idea that 'Chang Qing Guan' has a truly extraordinary and unmatched sword immortal.
"Chang Qing, you're cultivating the Way with just three to five Dao children in this broken-down Daoist temple?" Bai Yi Xia Huang arrived at the back of the Daoist temple. At the back of the temple were a few plots of land, where a young man was watering plants.
"You take care of your own big world, I have nothing to worry about, why bother." The young man said calmly.
"What about your disciples?" White-clothed Xia Huang shook his head, "You're in this Taoist temple, why not bring your disciples along and teach them well."
"The master leads the way, but cultivation depends on the individual. I've guided them for ten years and taught them all they need to know, that's enough. As for whether they can cultivate into immortals...I can only do so much." The young man casually sat down, picked up a ladle and scooped water from the bucket, took a sip, and sighed in appreciation, "The water is really sweet."
The White-Robed Summer Emperor is helpless.
Those who can become true immortals and heavenly gods are all powerful beings in the three realms. Even Tian Di Du treats them with courtesy. Their temperaments are also different, and he cannot persuade this younger brother.
"I have come this time, following the order of my respected master." said Bai Yi Xia Huang.
"Master?" The young man immediately became serious.
Bai Yi Xia Huang nodded: "You also know that more than thirty years ago, the Six Paths of Reincarnation were attacked and collapsed... Now the Three Realms are turbulent, a great upheaval is probably unavoidable. And the more chaotic it is, the easier it is for the Three Realms to give birth to some heroes."
The young man nodded.
"In our great Xia world, the aura is flourishing. This time, we are holding a Fairy Fate Conference. Even my master has chosen one of his top three disciples, named Mu Chuan True Person. There's even a disciple of the Black Tortoise Great Emperor attending this Fairy Fate Conference." said Bai Yi Xia Huang.
"Oh?" The young man exclaimed in surprise, "A gathering of immortal fate, two disciples of the Dao Ancestor?"
According to the master's instructions, the top three of this Immortal Fate Conference will all be taken in by my Vermilion Bright lineage. The master has chosen Mu Chuan as a true person, and two others, Hei Shi True Person and Ji Ning. And that Ji Ning is actually the reincarnation of an unparalleled Sword Immortal, who has cultivated for only over thirty years, even Lü Dongbin wanted to take him as a disciple, but I didn't allow it... Moreover, his birthdate and the collapse of the Six Paths Reincarnation are not far apart. Perhaps he is indeed a person with great luck. White-clothed Xia Huang whispered beside him.
"You don't have to be deceived." The young man shook his head, "Whether Lü Dongbin accepts disciples or not has nothing to do with me. His xìngzi can even directly accept ordinary people as disciples. As for this Ji Ning, who has been cultivating for over thirty years and is only slightly better than the collapse of the six paths' reincarnation cycle, it's a joke!"
"These three realms are in turmoil, giving rise to extraordinary heroes. This is because when the three realms are in turmoil, there will be great slaughter, and even other powerful beings will fall, their aura dispersing, gathering on others...". The young man said, "Every time the three realms are in turmoil, old powerful beings fall, and new ones are born. Even the Dao Ancestors die, and new ones appear. Generally speaking, there are only so many strong people in the three realms."
"Whether one can become a strong person depends on whether they can seize the opportunity in the turbulent times of the three realms!"
"As for giving birth, you can just coax others."
The young man was in no way deceived.
The White-Robed Summer Emperor could only smile wryly.
Even Laozi can't create reincarnation! Everyone is clear about the mystery of reincarnation, a person's fate is not fixed at birth, it depends on future opportunities! No one says that as soon as they are born, they will become a Taoist ancestor! There's no such good thing. At most, due to the blessings of the previous life, they may be reborn into a good family.
"And besides, it's not what your junior brother said," the young man said. "What does the turmoil of the three realms have to do with anything? Whether or not one accepts a disciple is unimportant, what matters is oneself!"
"The only thing we can believe in and grasp is ourselves!"
"Disciples will betray, subordinates will betray, even friends will stab you in the back... Only being strong oneself is the most fundamental." The young man said, "For me, the turmoil of the three realms is an opportunity for me to break through to the 'Great Luo Dao Ancestor'. As for disciples? Even if they cultivate into a Dao Ancestor, what does it have to do with me?"
Bai Yi Xia Huang didn't say much more, he and Chang Qing Jian Xian were just on different paths. As a member of the ancient imperial family, his way of thinking was naturally different. He immediately took out a scroll: "Take a look at this, it has the scene of Ji Ning's trial."
The scroll unfolds.
One after another battle scenes emerge.
"Xian Jian?" The young man nodded and handed a small green sword to Bai Yi Xia Huang, "This kid indeed has great talent. Since Master ordered it, I will take Ke Ning as my disciple. This is my token, you arrange someone to give it to Ke Ning. If Ke Ning is willing to acknowledge me as his master, let him crush the token within ten days and I will go find him. After ten days, this token will automatically disappear."
The master is willing to accept an apprentice, but also depends on whether the apprentice is willing to follow him.
Lü Dongbin also needs to ask Yu Wei if she is willing or not.
This Longqing Sword Immortal is the same. If Ji Ning was unwilling, with the pride of a Pure Yang True Immortal, he naturally wouldn't go and ask Ji Ning to pay his respects.
"Alright." Bai Yi Xia Huang took the green sword, smiled and said, "Junior brother, then I won't disturb the master of this Taoist temple's leisurely days anymore."
After finishing speaking, he disappeared without a trace.
