The Buddha is actually me

Chapter 60: Master Chongyang's Golden Gate and Jade Lock Secret
Inside the room, Zhang Jiuyang was very excited.

He finally uncovered the mystery of the visualization diagram further. It turned out that when the power of the incense accumulated and spread throughout the body, it would actually bestow a precious edict from the god in the diagram.

The so-called Baogao, also called Gaozhang, originally referred to the "holy will" conveyed by gods and immortals in Taoism, and later mostly referred to the holy titles of gods and immortals conferred by imperial decree.

The precious edict contains the most essential power of the god, and when combined with specific rituals, it can exert incredible power.

Zhang Jiuyang felt very calm, and he memorized the fasting and offering rituals that went with the precious edict, not missing any step.

When he arrives at Chenjia Village, he will give Blind Lin a big gift.

After Zhang Jiuyang comprehended the inheritance, that majestic consciousness began to dissipate, just like the previous times.

At this moment, he suddenly had an idea and came up with a bold idea.

Zhang Jiuyang thought that if this majestic consciousness really came from Zhong Kui, the Heavenly Master on Earth in his previous life, then... could he try to communicate with him?

For example...the boss can give me more rewards.

In the past, under the shock of this consciousness, he felt that he was as small as an ant. Naturally, he just passively accepted it and never thought of taking the initiative to contact it.

But as the number of times increased, the sense of awe gradually decreased.

If he is really the great god Zhong Kui, we all come from the same place, and when fellow villagers meet, shouldn’t they help each other?
Daringly, he tried to contact the dissipating majestic consciousness and conveyed his thoughts.

"God of blessing the Holy Lord of the House, Heavenly Master Zhong Kui, my disciple Zhang Jiuyang is in urgent need of a method to close the door and lock the essence. If Heavenly Master has a method, I wonder if you can give it to me. I will definitely burn incense morning and night, and I will be grateful!"

He did not ask for anything too powerful, but instead chose the method of seclusion and conserving his energy.

Firstly, he needed it right now, and secondly, it was just a preliminary test, so of course he couldn't ask for too much.

Just like asking the stall owner for a scallion when buying vegetables.

You want too many things, who do you think you are?

The dissipating vast consciousness suddenly paused.

Zhang Jiuyang could clearly sense His hesitation, and he became excited, thinking there was a chance!

After an unknown amount of time, the majestic consciousness that was about to dissipate descended upon Zhang Jiuyang's sea of ​​consciousness again and passed down a method of cultivation.

The Golden Gate and Jade Lock Secret of Chongyang Zhenren!

"When Bai Niu left, he locked the entrance tightly, secured the four gates, and urgently used the immortal's fishing method. He also used the Three Islands handprint to point to the inner flow of the Yellow River, closed the Golden Gate, and locked the Jade Lock..."

A subtle and mysterious method appeared in Zhang Jiuyang's mind, and the many secret codes and tricks in it were clear at a glance, as if seeing through fire.

For example, the white ox refers to the essence, the Xuanguan refers to the teeth, and the four gates refer to the life gate, the heaven gate, etc.

This is the secret method of subduing the white tiger of Wang Chongyang, one of the Five Northern Patriarchs of Quanzhen Taoism!
It is said that Wang Chongyang was originally a minor official who was in charge of collecting wine, but he had a unique bone structure and was outstanding. In the fourth year of Jin Zhenglong, Wang Chongyang was drinking and eating meat in a hotel in Ganhe Town when he met two men with disheveled hair and wearing felt clothes.

The two men were exactly the same age and looked exactly the same. Although they were dressed shabbily, they behaved in a relaxed and calm manner.

Wang Chongyang did not judge people by their appearance, so he humbly stepped forward to ask for advice. The two men looked him over, smiled and said that this boy was teachable, and then passed on the secret of cultivation to him.

Later, Wang Chongyang suddenly became enlightened and changed his name to Wang Zhe and his Taoist name to Chongyangzi.

Later in Liquan, Wang Chongyang met the two again and continued to ask for advice humbly. The two passed down five secret words to him and warned him that the secrets must not be revealed and must be burned after being written down.

But Wang Chongyang preserved it and passed it on to later generations.

This is the legend of meeting the immortal in Ganhe River.

People in later generations speculated that the two people who enlightened Wang Chongyang were Zhongli Quan and Lu Dongbin. As for the death of Master Chongyang at the age of 58, it might be because he leaked the secret.

It is said that this "Golden Gate and Jade Lock Secret of Master Chongyang" is the secret method of subduing the white tiger that he discovered from the five secret texts. It is a supreme skill for seclusion and locking one's essence.

When practiced to perfection, it can not only prevent the leakage of primordial yang and loss of essence, but also seal the pores all over the body, achieve a pure yang body without leakage, strengthen the body, and prolong life, so it is called the Golden Gate and Jade Lock.

Zhang Jiuyang was very grateful and wanted to continue communicating with that majestic consciousness, but this time, the other party quickly dissipated, as if afraid that he would speak again.

Zhang Jiuyang: “…”

After opening his eyes, he did not stand up immediately, but formed a mysterious seal with his hands and began to practice according to the method of Golden Gate Jade Lock Jue of Taoist Master Chongyang.

Almost thirty days had passed since the Hundred Days' Barrier, and as his magical powers improved, the heat in his heart grew stronger, and sometimes even taking several cold showers a day was not enough to suppress it.

I always toss and turn in the dead of night, feeling tortured.

But now, as he practiced the profound skills, his Qi moved around the body, he captured the white bull and subdued the white tiger. The heat that was like a maggot on the tarsal bone seemed to be poured with a basin of ice water, and it dissipated in an instant. His body and mind relaxed in an instant, and became extremely refreshed.

Suddenly I felt the sea was calm, the sky was vast, even the sunlight outside became warmer, the cicadas were no longer chirping, and all living things coexisted.

Even the pores all over the body tightened slightly to reduce the leakage of essence, and the whole person looked energetic and graceful.

Zhang Jiuyang couldn't help but sigh, it was worthy of being the superior method of Quanzhen Taoism in his previous life, it was indeed extraordinary. He had only just started to learn the basics, but he had benefited a lot.

Conquer the White Tiger without exposing yourself.

Over time, his efficiency in refining essence into Qi during the 100-day retreat will be enhanced, and his physique will become stronger and stronger, eventually reaching an extraordinary state.

Maybe in the future he will be able to compete with Yue Ling, who has the bones of a Vajra Dragon Elephant.

……

Outside the courtyard, Yue Ling was no longer sharpening his sword, but practicing.

She was wearing heavy armor, supporting herself on the ground with three fingers of one hand, and with the other hand behind her back, doing a movement similar to push-ups.

This posture was already extremely difficult, and there was a three-foot-high bluestone on her back, which made Zhang Jiuyang's eyelids twitch.

"Three hundred and ninety-seven, three hundred and ninety-eight..."

I don’t know how long she had been doing this. There were three deep fingerprints on the ground, and sweat kept dripping from her handsome face.

Asceticism is engraved in her bones.

When she saw Zhang Jiuyang pushing the door open, her sword-like eyebrows slightly raised, and a trace of ripples appeared in her determined eyes.

Zhang Jiuyang...seems to have changed.

The trace of dryness between his brows caused by the torture of fire disappeared, and the whole person became calm and deep, with a temperament that became more extraordinary and otherworldly.

"are you ready?"

She did not stop what she was doing and asked while practicing hard.

It's not time to leave yet, but there's no harm in leaving earlier.

Zhang Jiuyang shook his head and said, "We still need to prepare some things."

"what to prepare?"

He smiled slightly and said, "Since Blind Lin invited me over so warmly, as a guest, I should prepare a gift."

His voice was very calm, yet there was an indescribable confidence in it.

"By the way, General Yue, I suddenly thought of a detail. I wonder if it will be useful to you."

"What details?"

"In the bedroom of Blind Lin's home, there is a memorial tablet with the words 'my late father Xu Heshan' written on it, where people worship him all year round."

Yue Ling was also a smart person and immediately understood the doubts.

"Blind Lin's identity is undoubtedly fake. If we want to find out his true identity, perhaps this Xu Heshan can be a breakthrough."

"I'll have someone check it out right away."

For other people, looking up a name is undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack, but for the Imperial Observatory, it is not a difficult task.

Zhang Jiuyang looked at Ah Li who was still sleeping, then turned and left.

No one knew where he went until nightfall when he returned home with a two-foot-long wooden box behind him.

"Brother Jiu, what's in this box?"

Luo Ping, who was wiping his spear, couldn't help but ask curiously.

Zhang Jiuyang smiled slightly and said, "Keep it secret for now."

After a pause, he touched the wooden box and said calmly: "I hope he will like this gift."
