Ancestor Lu Que's deer head shook from side to side, as if he was lost in memories.

"Thirty years ago, I relied on fuzzy sensing to head north. When I passed a small town on the northern border of Yan State, I met a wandering Taoist priest."

"This person has a loud voice and an extraordinary temperament. The key is that his spiritual consciousness is completely incomprehensible. It makes me feel very mysterious."

"He called me directly on the street..."

The Yan Kingdom is a country of demons. Although Patriarch Lu Que was a headless man at that time, it was not a big deal in the demon town.

Many people in the devil's path like to follow evil ways and train their bodies to look like humans or ghosts. Therefore, everyone's aesthetic thresholds are uneven, and they have long been accustomed to it.

"He grabbed me on the street and wanted to tell me a fortune."

"At that time, I had just had a fight with a sect on the road. I was in a depressed mood. Coupled with the charm of this man's words, I couldn't help but follow him."

"In the end, he only asked a few questions, and I briefly talked about what was bothering me, and then the whole incident was reconstructed and explained clearly!"

"Including you, my brother... you, the leader of the Wind and Thunder School, are both soul cultivators, possess double elixirs, pretend to be Lei Fengzi, the deer head is in your hand, and a series of other truths."

"Afterwards, they only charged me three spiritual stones as fortune-telling money..."

...

When Lin Shan heard this, his face became a little solemn.

It wasn't that Patriarch Lu Que exposed him for lying, nor was it that his dual cultivation of the Golden Pill and Soul Pill was seen through.

But this Taoist Yunyou suddenly understood the essence of the matter just by relying on a few words from Patriarch Lu Que!

This is simply not something ordinary people can do!

"I suspect that this person is probably an extinct fortune-teller!"

Divination.

Manage the heaven and earth, and predict the past and present with hexagrams.

Such people were extremely rare in ancient times, hard to see, elusive and secretive.

Nowadays, it is even rarer to see.

Ancestor Lu Que only had doubts and did not dare to be 100% sure.

Because divination has always been a research topic of all the top sects.

Among the top ten academies in the State of Lu, there are many gentlemen who specialize in teaching this subject.

When Lin Shan was studying in Yunchuan, he also listened to some such courses, but they were only superficial and insignificant to him.

If you want to become a true divination practitioner, every link is essential, whether it is the corresponding qualifications and understanding, or even inheritance and karma.

The gentlemen from Yunchuan Academy only have a basic knowledge of it.

If they really tell people's fortunes, they can at best point out a vague direction based on case experiences given in ancient books.

In the world of cultivation, divination is mostly used in dream interpretation.

Because there are most cases of dream interpretation in ancient books, it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false, and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t work.

This has also given rise to the birth of many scammers.

However, the person that Patriarch Lu Que met was obviously not a liar. He was really capable. Even Linshan Shuangdan fellow practitioners could guess it, which was a bit amazing!

In a trance.

Lin Shan suddenly remembered Zuo Ning, the son of Zuo Zhenren, who once heard a wandering Taoist guide him in the northern Song Dynasty, which is now Yichuan in the southern part of the Yan Kingdom.

At that time, in order to extend the longevity of Zuo Zhenren, the only thing the Song Dynasty could find was the "Seven Evil Soul Locking Technique".

I originally thought this was a trap.

But after Lin Shan actually obtained this small magical power, he discovered that this technique could really temporarily lock Zuo Zhenren's soul and delay aging and death.

It's just that it's too difficult to obtain, and with Zuo Ning's strength, it's certainly not possible.

In fact, in the end, with Lin Shan's help, the boy went to Nanman and finally obtained the "Seven Evil Soul Locking Technique". Even if he didn't catch Zuo Zhenren's last train before his death, he still failed to live up to the wandering Taoist priest's prediction.

You can see how powerful it is!

Lin Shan immediately ordered people to find Zuo Ning.

After a while, this person came to him and Patriarch Lu Que.

Thirty years have passed, and he has become a monk in the foundation-building stage from the late stage of Qi training.

"Senior, are you looking for me?"

Lin Shan looked at him. He was only in his fifties now and still looked like a young man. He seemed to have pretty good qualifications. After all, he was the successor of Zuo Zhenren.

Of course, according to the establishment, they are members of Brother Ji Kun's teaching team. They are currently being trained by the Xungu Education Committee and are just looking for some tasks and things to do.

Long time no see, so I asked briefly how he was doing.

"Thanks to my family's leader and seniors, everything is going well in Tianfu Mountain. Manager Lu of the Xungu Sect and my fellow disciples also take good care of me."

"That's good."

Lin Shan nodded and did not ask any more questions. Instead, he talked about the wandering Taoist priest he used to be.

After comparing with what Patriarch Lu Que said, it turned out that he was the same person in terms of his dress, demeanor and tone!

The world is so big, it’s such a coincidence!

"It seems that this wandering Taoist priest is indeed a great master."

Lin Shan touched his palms and sighed, his mind drifting away.

Ancestor Lu Que seemed to understand what he was thinking, and he was probably thirsty for talents.

"Does the leader want to recruit such a great talent under his command?"

"That's true."

"I think it's probably impossible. This person has the ability to recognize the secrets of heaven. He may be practicing in the world of mortals. He is not stuck in one place, nor does he work specifically for a certain force."

"Oh, you are right."

Lin Shan had many doubts of his own, and often wanted to have a divination master to calculate things for him, especially after knowing the abilities of wandering Taoist priests.

However, he also knew that it was difficult to recruit such people, so he just sighed.

The world is so big, you probably won’t encounter it in the future.

...

Send Zuo Ning away.

When we arrived at the meeting hall on the top of the mountain, except for those who were out, most of the senior officials of the Xun Gu Sect were already here. They had been waiting for a long time.

Lin Shan sat on the leader's throne, with Master Zhankong and Patriarch Lu Que sitting on either side.

First let’s talk about Patriarch Lu Que’s joining the Xun Gu Sect.

Logically speaking, our sect has added a late-stage Golden Elixir master, so we should celebrate it and hold a decent ceremony.

Just in the daytime, so many golden elixir-level monks from the Lujiang League arrived together. Since they had already witnessed it, there was no need to go through the trouble of doing it again and inviting all forces to watch the ceremony.

On the spot, Patriarch Lu Que was canonized as the elder of the sect.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! I ordered my subordinates to plan to find a place rich in aura in the back mountain to build a palace cave, as well as an experimental field, a monster garden, a island lake, and other facilities.

Find a place not far below the mountain and dig a canal to divert water, build a snake valley, and raise pets for Patriarch Lu Que.

His good treatment makes people jealous, which shows Lin Shan's thoughtfulness.

Patriarch Lu Que was just a casual cultivator in the East China Sea. He was used to walking alone, and it was the same wherever he went.

If Xun Gu Sect can satisfy his needs, then there is no harm in staying here in seclusion. The most important thing is that he is restricted by the previous bet and can only fall into the trap.

There are now more and more foundation-building monks below. Not counting those who go out, there are still more than a dozen people on site.

Some of them are disciples of Master Zhankong, and some are talents recruited from Jingyang Academy and Yunchuan Academy.

"Master, after a long period of confrontation, the situation on the northern front is getting more and more anxious. Half of the disciples in our sect have been sent to support."

"Now it has attracted the attention of the two regions of Western Shandong and Northwest Shandong. Everyone is waiting to see how the competition between our religion and the merchants will end."

"There are even some careerists spreading rumors everywhere, saying that this is a proxy fight supported by the Lujiang League and Shangyang Academy. The ultimate goal is to provoke a cross-regional war between Western Lu and northwest Lu, causing internal strife in Lu!

"

...

Lu Xiuming talked about the biggest thing today.

There is no need to think about those who spread rumors. They are either local snakes that Luxi and the Lujiang League cannot deal with, or they are competitors that the merchants in the northwestern part of Lu are displeased with.

As for the long-term confrontation, why the merchants insisted on settling in Chixiao City and Happy Forest, insisting on opposing the Xun Gu Sect, was gradually found out.

It turns out that this has to mention the development of the aristocratic families in the world of cultivation.

Ordinary cultivation families, as time goes by, some will gradually decline and will be eliminated by the law of the jungle. Some will gradually expand and expand due to the prosperity of their talents.

At the merchant level, it has become a giant family. Basically, as long as there are no serious problems and it can be guaranteed that every generation has an ancestor who is in the late Golden Core stage, it will probably not decline.
