Chapter 521: The Immortal Stone (Part 1)
The second Feng family mansion was built in the center of Yuncheng. The surrounding inner city was not good, and the Du family's branches were the residences of the Du family. Except for a few branches with the Du family members who could live here for a long time, the rest of the people living in the mansion would have to move to the outer city because of their bloodlines within five sermons. But even so, these mansions were in short supply, which made most of them within five sermons, but the branches with bad relationships and the master's family were moved to the outer city.
The reason why the Du family members value the inner house so much is that the Du family is built on the spirit gathering point of the entire spiritual vein in Yuncheng. The spiritual energy derived from the formation underground in the main house leads the spiritual energy within thousands of miles around, making the inner city of Yuncheng covered by the strong fairy spirit energy. It is not weaker than the inner mountain of the sect.
Immortals below the Hedao Dixian practiced here for one day, which is comparable to practicing outside for a hundred days, not to mention the monthly spiritual medicine salary provided by the inner city. Therefore, the immortals in Yuncheng hope to live in the inner city of Yuncheng, but even the majority of the Du family members live in the outer city, let alone the immortals of other sects and aristocratic families.
Although the inner city's mansion looks no different from ordinary mansions on the surface, if you fly into the air and look down at the entire inner city, you can easily find that the layout of the inner city's mansion is based on the orientation of the innate Bagua, with many formations hidden. The formation pivot is located at the Zumiao Mountain in the middle of the main house. The inner city formation, plus the defensive formations hidden in the outer city and the four cities, and the spiritual veins are used as the source of formation power. If the entire Yuncheng formation is activated, the entire Yuncheng will be like a turtle with sharp thorns. Even the strongest immortal may not have a way to break through the city's defense.
Looking at the entire Du family's inner city, except for the Du family's meeting hall in the main house and the central ancestral temple hall in the inner city, which is quite magnificent, the other buildings are like courtyards of small doors and small households in the south of the world, covered with small paths and porches. If there were no one to lead the way, those who came here for the first time would be lost in this courtyard comparable to Wu Town.
After accepting Du Qitian's invitation, Xu Changqing accompanied him to the inner city of the Du family. He ordered him to the worship courtyard on the east side of the main house. Most of the people living in this courtyard were some scattered immortals with cultivation reaching the peak of returning to the void, and several of them had reached the realm of the Immortals of Hedao. This kind of cultivation was already considered top among the scattered immortals.
Du Qitian specially arranged a small courtyard for Xu Changqing, and arranged a concubine's grandson to be sent to the attendance. Then he was about to leave Xiao and the fragments of the immortal stone were taken to wait until he set off for Wu Town tomorrow before going to Du's warehouse to collect them.
When Du Qitian left, Xu Changqing suddenly asked: "Old Du, I wonder if Xu can go to the Du family's ancestral temple to worship. After all, there are many famous sages of the Du family who come here to be guests. The fragrance on the top shows his heart."
Du Qitian was stunned for a moment. Xu Changqing's request was really unqualified. After all, the ancestral temple was a place where descendants of the family worshiped their ancestors. In addition, there were other secrets that could not be told by outsiders. It would be fine if others even went there. However, Xu Changqing knew that the Jiuding Zhen Yue Qitian would definitely see the clues with his cultivation and vision, which was not conducive to the family.
Because it is related to the family's foundation, even if Du Qitian wants to win over Xu Changqing, he will not agree to his request. So he shook his head slightly and said, "Sorry! The family's ancestral temple is a forbidden place in the clan. It will not be opened unless the ancestor worship is a major matter. Moreover, there has never been a precedent for outsiders to worship, so"
"Xu is abrupt!" Xu Changqing's goal had been achieved, so he did not persist. He turned around and bowed to the direction of the Du family's ancestral temple, saying, "Since that's the case, Xu will bow again here and use the full ritual to count the entire ceremony.
Seeing Xu Changqing's actions, Du Qitian nodded with praise, bowed back, and then exchanged a few greetings at the door before leaving. Xu Changqing returned to the house and asked the descendants of the Du family to return to their house to rest. When they had something to do, they called him again, then closed the door and lay casually on the soft couch in the study. At the same time, his Daluo Golden Immortal's divine consciousness immediately spread, silently oozing through the layers of formations of the Du family's master's house. The house was shrouded in divine consciousness, part of which was placed on Du Qitian's body. The other part penetrated into the Du family's ancestral temple protected by layers of formations.
In fact, when he first entered the Du family, Xu Changqing had already felt the prosperity of the Du family's fortune. He had condensed into a cloud over the inner city, which was condensed but not dispersed, and was not bad compared to the sect. If the immortals who had reached the peak realm of the Earth Immortal or the most powerful realm of the Heavenly Dao have enough eyes, and even could faintly see the appearance of the Nine Tribes in the rays of the sun, this is the external appearance of the Great Dao that can only be achieved when the Nine Tribes are in the Great Dao, and it is also a symbol of great fortune. Logically speaking, the Du family can get this luck. There should be one in the family.
The Nine Ding Zhen Yue Qitian practiced and gathered the bloodline immortals of the nine tripods to control the external elements. However, the Nine Ding Zhen Yue Qitian practiced by the Du family obviously could not have this effect. In addition, most people can only see that the Du family's fortune is long and thick, but Xu Changqing could see that this fortune is just a weak and has its own appearance. The fortune is old and yang, and the yin is produced in the yang, which is very decayed and exhausted into the tomb. Moreover, the nine tripods speak "two reals, hidden and unstable. It is obviously mixed and impure. It is useful to suppress the fire of the spiritual vein. If you want to calm your luck, it is obviously insufficient.
Xu Changqing thought that after the death of the Du family's direct head, his body would be made into a golden body, and was placed in the Du family's ancestral temple, and was worshipped by the descendants of the Du family. The direct heads of the Du family had practiced Jiuding Zhen Yue Qitian, so he suspected that the Du family's luck would be so strange that it might be related to the remains of the head of the Du family who practiced Jiuding Zhen Yue Qitian in the past. So Xu Changqing made a fuss to test Du Qitian with a conspiracy. Although Du Qitian used a very reasonable reason to conceal the past, Xu Changqing could still vaguely feel that Du Qitian seemed to be indescribable at that moment.
Although the Du family's formation is wonderful, it is obviously not enough to resist Xu Changqing's Daluo Golden Immortal's divine consciousness. If it weren't for the Du family's fear of being noticed, Xu Changqing might have used the Daluo Golden Immortal's divine consciousness to forcibly break the defensive formation of the ancestral temple and enter the ancestral temple. Now Xu Changqing spent more than half an hour. Finally, the Daluo Golden Immortal's divine consciousness bypassed the formation around the Du family's ancestral temple, and the divine consciousness poured into the Du family's ancestral temple.
When Xu Changqing's divine consciousness sensed the bodies of nearly a hundred Du family heads placed in the Du family's ancestral temple, he found that the body still had a very strong Nine Cauldron Immortal Elements, and these Immortal Elements were still operating continuously according to the practices they practiced during their lifetime. As for the immortal energy produced by the corpses of the ancestors of the Du family, they gathered on their heads, forming the outer appearance of the small tripod, and finally gathered together to condense into the nine three-legged tripods. Seeing this scene, Xu Changqing couldn't help but frowned slightly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, saying, "Zhenyun Ren Ding? Is it actually Zhongyun Ren Ding?" The reason why Xu Changqing was so surprised was mainly because the Du family, or the Taishang Chengtian, the Holy Lord Haotian, evolved from the nine tripods Zhenyue Qitian, after the evolution of the Du family, the Holy Lord of Chengtian, the Holy Lord of Dao, Haotian, was the Jiuding Zhenyue Qitian.
It coincides with one of his ideas when he deduced the Three Hundred Earth Immortals Path before the New Year. At that time, he also thought of re-simplifying the new Taoism from those complete ancient Taoism methods, and included it in the Three Hundred Earth Immortals Path, and Jiuding Zhenyue Qitian** is one of them. Because Jiuding Zhenyue Qitian** has great power and great supernatural power to suppress one area of luck, the re-definition of Jiuding Zhenyue Qitian** also contains this great supernatural power. However, because this method does not condense the Nine Cauldrons with the power of heaven and earth, but uses the essence of the human energy to condense into a tripod, the effect naturally cannot be compared with the ancient Taoism method, and the tripod of the outer phase condensed by one person is not enough to suppress the fortune. Only by accumulating a small amount can one form the tripod of the fortune.
At that time, Xu Changqing wanted to create this method. The main reason was that Li Yongfeng's foundation was unstable. If he rashly expanded his power, he would be swept away by waves at any time like a rootless duckweed. He needed a wonderful method and magic weapon to suppress his luck. However, he later found out that this method was to sacrifice the cauldron with human sacrifice, which harmed the harmony of the sky and had too many disadvantages. The luck of the fortune was always just a human cauldron, not a cauldron of heaven and earth, and his luck was messy. It would not last long, and it was not deduced in the end, and instead gave Li Yongfeng the magic weapon to maintain the fortune of the cause of creation.
It seems that the Du family can pass on for ten thousand years, probably a big reason is that there is this Zhenyun Ren Ding. In addition, this Zhenyun Ren Ding is connected by blood. The heads of the family in all dynasties are willing to work together to sacrifice the cauldron after their death. Therefore, this Zhenyun Ren Ding does not have the short-term disadvantages of the method Xu Changqing deduced. However, even so, this method is not a method. The ten thousand-year-old fortune has reached the endowment limit of this Zhenyun Ren Ding. In addition, the fault of Du Qitian, the thousand-year-old head, caused the closely connected Zhenyun Ren Ding Qi to break the energy of the closely connected Zhenyun Ren Ding. Even if Du Qitian now passes the head of the family to his son, the fracture will not be repaired. This is also the biggest reason for the decline of the Qi on the Zhenyun Ren Ding.
Although the two have different methods, they have the same principles. When Xu Changqing saw that someone's way of thinking was so consistent with him, he couldn't help but feel a little grateful and was also a little scared. If Xu Changqing had not mastered the great way of cause and effect, he could vaguely understand some of his past and present lives, and could see that he and Kunlun had no previous cause and effect. Perhaps because of this coincidence, he would have mistakenly thought that he was the reincarnation of Emperor Haotian.
After figuring out the crisis of the Du family, Xu Changqing understood why Du Qitian would be so bold and anxious that he would enter the Taishang Qingjingtian treasure house with a stranger, and he could also expect that Du Qitian would probably return disappointed this time. Du Qitian and all the Du family thought that the Jiuding Zhenyue Qitian, which was passed down from Emperor Haotian, was incomplete, so he received signs of decline in the Zhenyun Ren Ding, which had been condensed for thousands of years.
But according to Xu Changqing's view, the Taoist practiced by the Du family is actually complete, but this Taoist practiced like Xu Changqing's three hundred earthly immortals was evolved, and the moment it evolved, it formed an innate restriction. Xu Changqing could even be sure that Emperor Haotian had already seen the disadvantages of this method after he created this method. Therefore, he abandoned it and gave it to the ancestors of the Du family to practice. In the Taishang Qingjingtian Treasure House, there was absolutely no so-called complete Taoist practice that Du Qitian wanted to obtain.
