The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 298 Preaching
The matter involved the Taoist Master Wuxiang, and the side hall was quiet for a while.

This is originally a funeral, but even a figure like Taoist Wuxiang can die, so the death of a mere Nascent Soul seems not worth mentioning.

Moreover, Po Yunzi was sighing about the fluorescent sun and moon. There were seven Jindan on the field, and only half of them had hope for the Great Dao. For a moment, everyone felt as if the rabbit had died and the fox had mourned.

"To be honest with you," Lin Bai sighed and shook his head helplessly, "The trip to Jiuzha Mountain did sharpen my heart, but I thought I could see far from a high place, but I didn't expect to feel even more insignificant."

At this point, Lin Bai looked around at everyone, especially at Qu Chengjia who had his eyes closed and Qu Ruyi who had his neck shrunk, and then continued: "All the brothers and sisters in Jiuzha Mountain are outstanding, but it was really dangerous, and several brothers were killed."

With another sigh, Lin Bai looked at Po Yunzi and asked, "Brother Po Yunzi, I have always wondered, who was the person who drew the knife?"

Lin Bai didn't dare to ask about the mastermind behind the siege on Taoist Wuxiang, but he was very interested in the person who drew the knife.

Moreover, after hanging around in Qiaoshan for a long time, Lin Bai increasingly agreed with Lu Qingyin's assessment that the East China Sea was a place of death.

This world is too small, and there are not many Divine Transformation cultivators. Although Zhou Hui Mountain exists, it has been destroyed for thousands of years. Even if there are new ones, they are still occupied by the Northern Wilderness.

Could it be that something happened in the East Sea because of the Taoist Master Wuxiang? The Taoist Master Wuxiang's temple is the East Sea, but he was harmed at home. Could it be that the cause and effect is here?
Lin Bai couldn't figure it out, so he naturally wanted to ask others.

When everyone heard Lin Bai's question, they all shook their heads.

Po Yunzi also smiled helplessly and said, "The East Sea is barren, and there are few masters coming and going. I don't know."

As expected, no one knew. Or rather, the Jindan here was not qualified to know, but Xiang Wuhui and others might know something, but they did not say it.

After all, no matter whether it was the Taoist Master Wuxiang or the person who drew the sword, they were all too high and too far away, and it was simply not something that a mere Jindan or even Yuanying cultivator could participate in.

Lin Bai did not inquire further. Some things should be left to nature. When the time comes, you will naturally know the answer.

"The master of the Wuxiang Dao has withered."

Po Yunzi seemed to be sad, and it was unclear whether he was sighing at his own insignificance or lamenting the impermanence of life. "But the East Sea is her dojo after all, and she has stayed in various places. In recent years, secret realms have been opened one after another, and strange phenomena have appeared every time."

He looked at Lin Bai, then at Meng Yuan and Qu Ruyi, and continued, "First, there is the Wordless Secret Realm, which my master has explored before. As for the Formless Tomb, I believe all of you fellow Taoists have also been there, but few have gained anything, and most have returned empty-handed."

Speaking of the Wuxiang Tomb, Qu Ruyi lowered his head even more fiercely.

Everyone on the field had their own demeanor, and no one looked at Qu Chengjia's reaction.

"The secret realm has indeed always existed, and perhaps there are still many hidden things waiting to be opened in the future." Cheng Keshui stroked his beard and pondered, "But those who entered the secret realm and gained something are just low-level cultivators whose great path has not yet been determined."

When Cheng Keshui said this, he pointed to the blessed land of Qiaoshan and said, "Ancestor Xiang, the leader of your sect, and Senior Yin of Jiuyin Mountain also entered the wordless secret realm when they were building their foundation."

"With all this going on, I'm afraid that Taoist Wuxiang is really leaving his legacy to future generations, looking for someone to inherit his mantle." Po Yunzi sighed.

"The Thousand Valleys Sand Land is where the Taoist Master Wuxiang fell, and he left behind many small worlds." Gao Yuanyuan suddenly laughed, "I remember there is an abyss in the center of the Thousand Valleys Sand Land, which is extremely dangerous. I believe there are more opportunities in it."

After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.

The Thousand Valleys Sandy Land was already full of wind and sand, and it was difficult for ordinary cultivators to go deep into it. Not to mention the area in the middle, which was difficult for the people on the field to go to personally. I'm afraid only the Nascent Soul Realm could explore it.

After they chatted for a while, Po Yunzi asked Lin Bai about the matter of Jiuzha Mountain. It turned out that he also had a friendship with Jing Shitui.

This is not surprising. Although the great sects are very far apart, often thousands of miles or even tens of thousands of miles away, for Jindan cultivators, it is not that far. Even if there are dangerous places blocking the way, such as the Sleeping Dragon Mountain or the Thousand Valleys Sand Land, it doesn't take much effort to go around.

Moreover, the major sects often know each other's reputations, and even the highest-level Nascent Souls have connections with each other, and there are trade exchanges between different places.

Lin Bai immediately praised Jing Shitui, and Po Yunzi also said that Jing Shitui had an extraordinary bearing.

After bragging to each other for a while, everyone dispersed.

After leaving the side hall, Meng Yuan followed out again.

"Senior." Meng Yuan smiled and whispered, "Jing Xian asked me to congratulate you on your elixir formation."

"Why didn't she come?" Lin Bai was still curious, thinking about letting Song Jingxian talk to Dugu Jing about the formation.

"Her cultivation has reached a critical point, so it's inconvenient for her to come over." Meng Yuan sighed, then looked at Lin Bai dimly and said, "I thought you had forgotten about her."

"How can we forget the friendship we had fighting side by side in the past?" Lin Bai said with a smile.

"That's not the friendship I'm talking about." Meng Yuan raised an eyebrow. "She thinks of you all the time. When she heard that you had formed an elixir, she kept telling me that she wanted to come to Qiaoshan. Later, she heard that you went to Daoyin Sect to participate in some trial, and she prayed for your safety all the time."

"Is she okay?" Lin Bai didn't know how to answer.

In fact, the reason why Song Jingxian was so caring was because of Song Qing. Of course, Song Jingxian was indeed a beautiful and kind person with a very good temperament.

"You will know if you go and take a look." Meng Yuan smiled complacently and stopped nagging about it. Instead, he whispered, "Ruyi can't escape this time. I'm afraid she will have to return to the island to live for a long time. Wait for three to five years and ask Fairy Chenyu to go and get her out."

This senior sister really took great pains for her junior sister and had already arranged her funeral in advance.

Lin Bai naturally agreed.

Two days later, people came from Jiuyin Mountain to pay homage, but it was Jindan who led the team.

Yun Wujiu has not yet come down from the Fairy Bridge Blessed Land, and Po Yunzi and others have not left yet.

When the thirty-third day of the Nascent Soul Ceremony comes, according to custom, a Nascent Soul cultivator should give a sermon.

The last time Gu Qingshan held a ceremony, it was Gu Qingshui who gave the sermon.

That morning, Qiaoshan was solemn. Many people had been waiting early in the square in front of the main hall, hoping to listen to the voice of Yuanying.

Sure enough, before long, clouds rose from the Fairy Bridge Blessed Land, and then everyone felt a trance, as if there was nothing to stop them, and as if they had returned to their mortal bodies.

A faint pressure descended, and three people were seen sitting cross-legged on the high platform in front of the hall.

The man in the middle was wearing a linen short robe and had an extraordinary demeanor. He was Xiang Wuhui. On the left was an old man with a black beard and a thin figure. He was Yun Wujiu, the leader of the Yunxia Sect. On the right was a woman wearing green clothes, who was cold and indifferent and had an extremely beautiful appearance. She was Gu Qingshui.

All the monks immediately bowed down and worshiped.

Master Lin Bai and his two disciples lowered their heads especially low, not daring to say a word.

There were three Yuanyings on the stage, two of whom had been offended before and were feeling very guilty.

"I started from humble beginnings..."

Xiang Wuhui's voice was vague, floating around the field and falling into everyone's ears.

He did not talk about any mysterious insights into cultivation, nor did he mention his experiences in breaking through barriers. He just talked about his old stories of seeking the truth.

From an unknown person, he joined Qiaoshan Sect, then built his foundation, formed the elixir, and even achieved the Nascent Soul, becoming the number one person among the three sects.

Xiang Wuhui did not say much about the hardships involved, but only talked about his desire to seek the truth.

He does not covet women, does not love money, does not commit murder, and only focuses on meditation.

Xiang Wuhui did not exaggerate, but instead told his life story in a leisurely manner. He did not mention much about his cultivation, and he also glossed over the matter of besieging and killing Lu Haike. It seemed ordinary, but it made the listeners fascinated, as if they had walked Xiang Wuhui's cultivation path again.

By the time he finished speaking, it was already evening.

When the meeting was over, the three Yuanyings were nowhere to be seen, but the crowd was still not satisfied and did not move for a long time. Now that the sacrifice was over, the fox did not show up. I don't know if he was sleeping at home or had other things to do.

In the past, foxes loved to join in the fun, and would come and hang around even if they had nothing to do, saying some naughty and weird things. But now they don't come, which is a bit strange.

"Each of you write a reflection and give it to me in three days." Lin Bai assigned the task. Seeing Dugu Jing was stunned, he did not let him go, "Same to you."

All three women agreed.

Huang Ruhua was sitting with Dugu Jing. When she saw Lin Bai looking at her, she avoided his gaze, as if she was afraid of being assigned a mission.

"Why didn't your master come?" Lin Bai looked at Huang Ruhua.

Huang Ruhua was relieved to see that Lin Bai was not forcing her to write any reflections, and said, "Master is probably sleeping at home."

It seems that Xiao Huang doesn't know what the fox is doing.
The fox's apprentice was raised freely and probably didn't keep in touch with her.

Lin Bai thought that the fox would definitely come, and might even bring Xiuxiu with him, but he didn't expect the fox to stay at home.

"Is there any way to contact your master?" Lin Bai asked.

"Master sleeps for months, sometimes half a year or a year. I asked her at the beginning of the year, but she might not come back until the end of the year." Huang Ruhua also sighed, then shook her head and said, "Master said that loving mothers often spoil their children, so that's why she let me venture out. You should learn from my master, don't spoil Miaomiao all day long, let her go out for a walk, don't keep her by your side all the time."

Miaomiao was originally talking to Jiang Yu about homework, but suddenly she was implicated. She was stunned for a moment and grabbed Huang Ruhua's arm, "Little Sister Huang..."

"Do you think I want to keep her?" Lin Bai also had a point. "When she was building her foundation outside, she caused a lot of trouble and offended Jiuyin Mountain. Yunxia Sect was also involved. Do you think I dare to let her go?"

"That's right." Huang Ruhua admitted it. She looked at Miaomiao and nodded, "You and your master are not easy to get along with."

"Master," Miaomiao interrupted again, "Fairy Chenyu must have gone to visit a friend."

"She came to see you?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

"That's not the case." Miaomiao chuckled and moved forward. "Senior Muzhen came here and asked about my and Xiaoyuer's cultivation."

After Lin Bai came back from Daoyin Sect, he heard Miaomiao and Jiang Yu talk about this matter. He didn't pay much attention to it at that time, just thinking that Sister Zhen was idle. Moreover, the two disciples looked at him strangely, as if they suspected that there was another master's wife, so Lin Bai didn't dare to ask more. Now it seems that there is something fishy going on.

"Then what?" Huang Ruhua asked.

"Senior Mu Zhen was about to leave after staying for a day. Xiao Yuer and I couldn't keep him as a guest, so we asked Senior Mu where he was going." Miaomiao looked at Huang Ruhua.

"I understand." Huang Ruhua naturally knew Mu Zhen. She smiled and said, "Master and Senior Mu Yao are acquainted. Mu Zhen probably went to pay her respects. She is really polite."

Lin Bai knew that the matter was not simple. The fox had once offended Sister Zhen, and Sister Zhen had vowed to teach the fox a lesson.

From now on, it seems that Sister Zhen really has confronted the fox.

But the fox is only at the Nascent Soul stage after all. Even if Sister Zhen has a lot of things in her hands, she is afraid that she will end up losing more than she gains.

"Senior Mu said that she wants to go to Mianlong Mountain to go and visit the naughty fox." Miaomiao said.

“……” Huang Ruhua frowned and tilted her head.

Lin Bai looked at Jiang Yu, and Jiang Yu nodded obediently, indicating that what Miaomiao said was true.

"This..." Lin Bai was confused. It seemed that he had found the reason why the fox didn't come.

However, the fox is practicing the great way of space, and Sister Zhen is also proficient in escape techniques. They are completely defeated by the fox, so I’m afraid she won’t be able to escape unharmed.

Even though Sister Zhen had a lot of treasures in her hands, she would not fight the fox to death, so it was difficult for her to hurt the fox, let alone trap it.

But the fox didn't show up for a long time...

Judging from his own experience, Lin Bai guessed that Sister Zhen probably led the fox to the north. Or maybe Sister Zhen and the fox teamed up to cause trouble.

Both the man and the fox are not easy to deal with. Go ahead and bite them. Bit a mouthful of fur!

"Bad friends." Lin Bai sighed.

"..." Huang Ruhua was originally glaring at Miaomiao, and after hearing this, she turned to glare at Lin Bai.

"We, the master and the disciple, despise people who complain the most!"

Lin Bai didn't wait for Huang Ruhua to react, he immediately got up and went to Chunhui Hall.

Today’s sermon is about telling Wu Hui about my life, with the intention of seeking the truth.

Lin Bai always felt that the ancestor seemed to be about to do something, and maybe everything was ready, and he was going to try his best to become a god.

While in Qiaoshan, it would be a great thing if there was one more deity to protect us.

It is just that achieving Nascent Soul stage is extremely difficult. Even with Xiang Wuhui's ability, advancing to the Divine Transformation stage would be extremely difficult.

If it succeeds, then it will be easy. If it fails, there may be more storms in Qiaoshan.

After setting up the formation, Lin Bai sat in the house and came to the stone plate.

A hint of green remains, and the moon is even whiter.

With a thought, the mist surged and transformed into Qiaoshan and Qingyunshan. Then the mist split open a crack, and the moonlight surged in.

This is to invite Xiuxiu and Fox to visit Qiaoshan. If Fox is with Xiuxiu, he should be able to come here soon.

After doing this, Lin Bai went to find Aunt Gu again.

"The ancestor wants to go into seclusion and practice meditation, and won't see anyone." Gu Yao blocked his way.

"Can't I do it too?" Lin Bai asked sadly.

"..." Seeing Lin Bai's pitiful appearance of being abandoned by someone, Gu Yao smacked her lips and said, "Then let me ask."

Gu Yao reached out to stir the pool, but quickly pulled her hand back.

"The ancestor asked you to practice in peace and not worry about other things." Gu Yao laughed, "Your good disciple has received a lot of spirit stones, go and pay off the debt first!"

He had said before that I could come and ask him if I had any questions about my practice, but in the blink of an eye he just ignored me!
Lin Bai lost his temper and thought that women were really unreliable. Sister Pei got annoyed after sleeping for two hours, Sister Zhen was full of bad intentions, and girl Jiang was demanding too much...

"Sister Huanhuan, you are so nice." After saying goodbye to Gu Yao, Lin Bai went to find Sister Huanhuan.

"I plan to go into seclusion." Yang Huan wiped his mouth and said softly.

She had already prepared herself to deal with the thunder tribulation, all she needed was a calm state of mind and a complete foundation.

Now it is just the finishing touch and it won’t take long.

After the two of them stayed together for two days, Lin Bai returned to Chunhui Hall to meditate.

Five days later, there was still no sign of the fox, but two good disciples came with Dugu Jing.
