Seeking Immortals

Chapter 40
In the world, there are still many good people.

Regardless of Rong Kuo or Ran Bing, although they have experienced incomplete lives, they are undoubtedly great people.

Loyalty to the emperor, great love for the common people, and aversion to war, the two have great similarities.

Just don't pursue the way of immortality, don't seek longevity, people are perishable.

The saint didn't understand the reason behind Li Qing's words, so she tried to ask: "The innate master, but the teacher's friend?"

Li Qing didn't answer, but asked instead: "Emperor Tianshou excavated the ancient tomb, why is there any problem?"

According to Li Qing's thinking, there are more or less refined corpses in the ancient tomb.

Li Qing also understands the actions of Emperor Tianshou, and the other party still has not forgotten his obsession with seeking immortality.

The so-called policy of using gold and silver from ancient tombs to raise taxes and reduce taxes is nothing more than covering up his own desire to find corpses.

The heart of proclaiming the emperor after saying it, I'm afraid it was confirmed as early as when Li Qing refused to pass on his corpse.

"Not yet, my subordinates have sent people to watch secretly. The ancient tombs that have been excavated so far are all small tombs. The excavation of the large tombs is still under preparation by Faqiu Lingguan. It is estimated that there will be a big move in a few years."

The saint said cautiously: "My subordinates heard that some living corpses were dug up from some ancient tombs, like the one on Bailian Island... However, they were all dealt with quickly without any serious problems."

The existence of Jiamu is not hidden from the saint. When Li Qing returned from carrying the coffin, the saint saw it with her own eyes.

Moreover, the saint knew the existence of immortality, and also knew that the White Lotus Sect had immortality.

Afterwards, Li Qing asked some other questions, probably knowing the situation outside.

Li Qing finally ordered:

"There are two things I need to do now. One is to send my disciples to Dongyue Kingdom to investigate the Baiyue River. I accidentally obtained a Taoist technique from the Baiyue River. I suspect that there is a world of cultivating immortals there. I need to be careful. Investigate, don't reveal your identity."

"Second, you should go to Lancang Mountain in Nanzhao Kingdom yourself. The living corpse in my hand comes from the ancient tomb of Lancang Mountain. You should carefully check whether there is any danger in the mountain. If there is no danger, the leader may I'll go there myself."

"In addition, you don't need to worry about the change of the status of the saint. As long as I am still the leader and you are not dead, you will always be the saint."

"If there is a chance, it is not impossible to help you enter the immortal way in the future."

"Thank you, Hierarch, I will live up to the holy order!" The saint bowed to accept the order.

Ten years have passed, and although Li Qing has no plans to enter the world of cultivating immortals, finding a place in the world of cultivating immortals is undoubtedly on the agenda.

Recently, the speed of cultivation has been getting slower and slower. Li Qing has an intuition that one day, his cultivation will be beyond his reach.

However, at least wait for the day when he can't make any progress.

……

Summer goes and autumn comes, and there are two cold and hot summers.

this day.

Bailian Island.

"call--"

"The third level of Qi Refining has finally broken through!"

Li Qing woke up from his practice, his face was calm.

After 67 years of cultivating Taoism, he finally became the third level of Qi refining. Not counting as a person in the world of immortality, he is already invincible in the world.

After the breakthrough, Li Qing tried to run the Lotus Sutra again, breathing out spiritual energy.

He frowned slightly: "The speed of cultivation has dropped again. Although it can still be improved slowly, it will take at least 30 years to reach the fourth level of Qi refining."

"Once I break through the fourth level of Qi refining, I will have nowhere to go."

"Is it because of the aura of heaven and earth?"

The spiritual energy in the human world is thin, but the spiritual energy in the world of cultivating immortals is abundant, Li Qing has always thought so.

"We must speed up the search for the world of cultivating immortals. The power of the White Lotus Sect alone is still too weak. Maybe we can borrow some intelligence from the Dagan Kingdom. Emperor Tianshou is also looking for immortals by digging ancient tombs to find corpses."

"The White Lotus Sect has investigated the ancient tombs of Baiyuechuan and Lancang Mountain for two years, but we still haven't got much clues. You might as well take a trip to the capital of Dagan first, meet old people from the past, and add some sacrifices to Rongku and Ran Bing."

"I don't know if Gong Yue and Zheng Chun are dead..."

Leaving Bailian Island, Li Qing rode a white horse and sang in the secluded forest as he did when he left the capital more than 20 years ago.

This time, Li Qing's face was no longer immature, and there were many years of weathering, even if ordinary people saw him, they would call out: "What a master!"

……

Tianshou five years, the ninth day of October.

Beijing.

Baili Beppu.

On this day, the Baili family was crowded and lively.

The hero of Baili is famous in the five prefectures of Gyeonggi Province. Not to mention the reputation of the common people for robbing evil and helping the poor, he was even granted a plaque by the emperor himself, which read: Yi Bo Yuntian Baili Flying Eagle!
In the past ten years in the five states of Gyeonggi Province, the heroes of Baili ranked first.

On the ninth day of October, it is also the full moon day of the hero of the hundred miles, and the famous people in the capital all come to celebrate after hearing about it.

Ten years ago, the hero of Baili married the heroine of Mingying of Wuliangguan. They had four sons in ten years, and only this year gave birth to a daughter.

The hero of Baili was very happy, and specially held a full moon wine for Yaonu, and named it Baili Mingyan.

However, on this festive day, only the hero Baili was entertaining guests in the courtyard, and the heroine Mingying was not seen, which made a few people doubtful.

The heroine Mingying has always been hospitable and eclectic.

Someone asked: "Hero Baili, how come the heroine Mingying isn't there? Is there something wrong between the couple?"

Baili Feiying smiled back: "It's nothing, Madam has important guests to see, so I can't come out today."

Someone exclaimed: "I heard that the hero Baili worshiped a congenital master as his teacher in the early years, but the heroine Mingying is entertaining the congenital master?"

Baili Flying Eagle replied meaningfully: "You are half right."

Baili's backyard, under the vine.

Two women stood side by side, one with a plump body, holding a one-month-old baby girl in her arms;

Mingying said: "Junior Sister Ling really wants to leave Beijing to find a master?"

Ling Jiao nodded: "Master Ruoshui has been away from Beijing for 12 years. The East and West factories and the masters of the rivers and lakes have been looking for him. He has never heard of him. He should have left Dagan Kingdom early."

"The Holy Empress told me not long ago that there seems to be an innate master named Ruoshui out of Bingfeng Kingdom in the north. I thought it was Master Ruoshui, and I planned to go there to find it."

"Ice Maple Country?" Mingying said in surprise, "It's a long way, and it may take half a year to travel alone."

"It doesn't matter, I'm always looking for it." Ling Jiao said lightly.

"Junior Sister Ling, why bother, when the master said that you are not beautiful and that you look like a man, it was just a joke." Mingying sighed.

Ling Jiao, on the other hand, revealed a hint of arrogance: "But Master Ruoshui actually let me be a eunuch in the cold palace, it's really unbearable. Now that I have attained a great achievement in Zen meditation, I have already cultivated the glory and immortality, and I have also cultivated immortality. I want to argue with Master Ruoshui."

"Hey." Mingying could only sigh helplessly, "If the master suddenly returns to the capital, you don't say that you won't see the master, and you still go to the Ice Maple Kingdom in vain. Besides, can the Holy Queen let you leave the capital?"

"It was the Holy Empress who asked me to go. The Holy Empress said that there seemed to be an inheritance from the Immortal Family in Bingfeng Country. When she asked me to look for Master Ruoshui, I would also look for the inheritance from the Immortal Family." Ling Jiao said.

"The holy queen won't lie to you, will she?" Mingying asked suspiciously in a low voice.

"Never mind him, it's better to have news than to look for it blindly. If Master Ruoshui is obsessed with the way of immortality, Bingfeng Kingdom really has the inheritance of the immortal family, and he will definitely go."

……

Coincidences are everywhere in the world.

On October [-]th, after Ling Jiao went north for six days, Li Qing entered Beijing on a white horse.

　The realm setting of the early stage, middle stage, and late stage of the Qi Refining Realm has been modified, directly referring to the first, second, and third floors, and there is no longer the term of the second stage of the Qi Refining Stage, the middle stage, and the late stage.
