Cultivation begins with separation.

Chapter 31 Lijiang Taoist Temple
Lijiang Taoist Temple is located on the bank of the Lijiang River.

Unlike the undulating mountains in Qingzhu Taoist Temple, the Lijiang Taoist Temple uses islands as nodes and has built countless crisscrossing spiritual iron bridges, and there are even many water palaces underwater.

It was evening when Yidong arrived.

At this time, the environment of Lijiang Taoist Temple is magnificent. Under the setting sun, colorful lights are reflected on the sparkling water. From time to time, cranes dance, accompanied by the sound of fairy music coming from the islands, like a breeze blowing through the soul, making people feel inexplicably calm.

If Qingzhu Taoist Temple is a rough factory full of mechanical style, then this place is a real paradise on earth.

This kind of scenery is a thousand times more beautiful than the docks, rivers and other check-in spots that Yi Dong had seen in his previous life.

Seeing this scene, Yi Dong couldn't help but sigh,
"Lijiang Taoist Academy is indeed the last among all the Taoist academies in Qingzhou. It is said that it has never produced any top Taoist academy talents. If you put your mind on these empty places, how can you have the mind to cultivate immortality?"

At the side, a beautiful woman who was originally entrusted by the teacher to receive Yi Dong, had a smiling face, but after hearing Yi Dong's words, the smile froze at a speed visible to the naked eye and then disappeared.

"Friend Yi, don't you know that if you keep a happy mood, not only will your mind be relaxed, but your thinking will also become smoother?

We in the Taoist Academy have studied a lot of immortal sounds. Accompanied by the immortal sounds, we can not only practice and study, but also maintain long-term enthusiasm. "

Yi Dong shook his head.

“Fellow Daoist Zhai Shanshan is still too young.

Perhaps you don’t know that the Taoist temple conducted research on the ancient practice of cultivating the mind tens of thousands of years ago.

There is a saying in ancient times that if one's state of mind is not good enough, one will go astray, and if one's state of mind is improved, one's cultivation will greatly improve.

In fact, after research by the Taoist Academy, it was found that this situation was because the ancient practitioners' skills had many loopholes, and if one was not careful when practicing the skills, they might deviate from their original track.

But this is not necessarily a bad thing. In this situation, there is a high probability that one will go astray, but there is a small probability that it will turn out to be a blessing in disguise, allowing the technique to become more perfect and thus improve one's cultivation level.

There is no absolute connection with changes in mood.

Moreover, in the eyes of the Taoist temple, the cultivation of the state of mind is absolutely evil.

Originally, everyone has a different nature, but the various natures are the brilliance of our human nature.

Look at those powerful immortal cultivators in the chaotic period. They all claim to have cultivated their minds to an extremely high level. However, such people basically don’t care about the life and death of mortals. Instead, they pursue what is natural and have no desires.

Therefore, in the Taoist temple's view, this state of mind cultivation is to slowly distort a person's humanity, thereby distorting many people with unique personalities into a similar group of people.

When we practice cultivation today, we cannot imitate the ancients.

When ancient cultivators encountered something they didn’t understand during their practice, they would say that the opportunity had not yet arrived.

When we encounter something we don’t understand, we need to practice and experiment until we get the correct answer.

If we really want to achieve a certain state of mind to practice magic, we don’t need to practice at all.

After taking a set of pills, you can obtain any state of immobility, non-emptiness, and non-forgetfulness.

If it can’t be achieved, then it’s either because the medicine is not effective enough or the medicine is not the right one.”

Zhai Shanshan's face was expressionless.

"Friend Yi is right. We should hurry up. The instructor is waiting for us."

Seeing Zhai Shanshan's cold face, Yi Dong stopped talking.

Originally, half a day ago, Yi Dong was also quite aloof.

Although Zhai Shanshan is good-looking, Yi Dong has become immune to the "plastic surgery" world of immortal cultivation where every female is a fairy.

A female cultivator who came from a second-rate Taoist academy like Lijiang Taoist Academy was not worthy of wasting even a second of Yi Dong's time.

However, ever since he heard Zhai Shanshan look at her green cow and say that she also had a cow spirit beast with the bloodline of the five-colored divine cow, Yi Dong changed his behavior and started to be enthusiastic towards Zhai Shanshan. On the way here, he even invited her many times to bring the five-colored divine cow to Zijin Mountain. In order to attract this cow, no, female cultivator, Yi Dong even described Zijin Mountain as a treasure land for cultivation with purple air coming from the east for three thousand miles, flowers falling from the sky, and golden lotus gushing from the ground.

On the way, he deliberately showed off his profound knowledge.

If for no other reason than to allow the cow with the blood of the five-colored divine cow and the blue cow to give birth to a calf.

Although Zhai Shanshan's cow is not a real five-colored divine cow, and the five-colored divine cow is not some amazing spiritual beast, this kind of cow has a very good talent, which is the ability to preserve the bloodline of the species, and can be called the universal mother among spiritual beasts.

Yi Dong always felt that Qingniu was at risk of running away at any time.

After all, it is rumored that auspicious beasts follow people of great virtue.

Taking Yi Dong's past and present lives together, he may not be very compatible with the word "virtue".

In addition, he had drawn blood and plucked hair from the blue ox before studying it, so its senses might not be very good to him.

Yi Dong wanted to try his best to have Qingniu leave offspring before he ran away.

He didn't want to control a second spirit beast, because it would be basically impossible for him to contract a second spirit beast in this lifetime.

He wanted to sell the descendants of Qingniu as a specialty of Zijin Mountain.

The calf born by Zhai Shanshan's cow in Zijin Mountain is Yi Dong's calf. In Lijiang Taoist Temple, Yi Dong will not let Qingniu do whatever he wants.

As long as Zhai Shanshan's cows arrived at Zijin Mountain, Yi Dong would have a way to make them give birth to calves.

After all, the laws of the fairyland are not yet perfect enough to protect the chastity of spiritual beasts.

Besides, even if it was against the law, Yi Dong would at most send Qingniu to the guillotine, and it would be a tragic loss of a spiritual beast.

Unfortunately, Yi Dong had to spend a lot of time talking along the way.

But I always feel that the communication between the two sides is no longer on the same channel.

He Yidong talked about the spiritual power circuit, Zhai Shanshan talked about the scenery, he talked about the mysteries of mathematics, and Zhai Shanshan said that the music was touching.

Yi Dong really couldn't keep up with this woman's train of thought. Riding on a green ox, he followed Zhai Shanshan into the Lijiang Taoist Temple and passed by islands.

Looking at Zhai Shanshan's back, Yi Dong sighed, this woman is worthy of being a student from the rubbish Taoist temple, Lijiang Taoist Temple, and she has taken her lack of knowledge and skills to the extreme.

I just hope she believes that Purple Mountain is really a place with stunning scenery and is willing to come over for a visit.

Zhai Shanshan walked in front with a slightly sarcastic smile on her face.

She was lamenting how many tricks Yi Dong had.

If she hadn't been so knowledgeable, she might have been deceived by this unremarkable man.

At the beginning, this man seemed indifferent to me, and I had some guesses.

Sure enough, this person was playing hard to get. I just found a topic and he immediately became enthusiastic and said a lot of clever and strange things to attract my attention.

When the tactic of playing hard to get didn't work, he immediately switched to a passionate offensive and even invited himself to his home.

He is average looking, but has beautiful ideas.

Zhai Shanshan didn't blame Yi Dong for being so abrupt, she only blamed herself for being too charming and being able to easily make men fall in love with her. Alas.

After the two arrived at an island covered with magical flowers and herbs, and with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, they went straight to the gate of a huge courtyard. In front of the gate there was a big tree with pink flowers.

"You wait here."

Zhai Shanshan looked down at Yi Dong with a proud look, said something lightly, then turned and walked into the yard.

Yi Dong and his cow waited under a tree for about an hour, and his face twitched uncontrollably.

His time is so precious, has anyone ever let him waste his life like this?

Yi Dong gestured to Qingniu.

Qingniu was stunned, looked at Yi Dong, then looked at the magical flowers and herbs around him, swallowed twice, and looked at Yi Dong again.

After getting confirmation, Qingniu no longer hesitated.

He just munched on the magical flowers and herbs around him.

After a while, it swallowed all the surrounding flowers and plants into its bottomless stomach.

Qingniu glanced at Yi Dong's position, hesitated, and then walked towards Yi Dong.

It doesn't dare to go too far. If it is secretly captured by someone, the consequences will be unpredictable.

After seeing Qingniu coming back, he looked at the big tree beside him.

Yi Dong took a look at the spiritual tree with pink flowers and moved away.

The green ox immediately climbed up the tree lightly with its four limbs and started pulling out the leaves and tender branches. Soon, the spiritual tree was left bare.

After having a sumptuous meal, Qingniu lay down beside Yidong and ruminated slowly.

"what!"

A scream was heard.

Zhai Shanshan was seen looking at the clean scenery around the gate with a look of frightened face.

Yi Dong couldn't help but frown. He wondered if Zhai Shanshan was sick.

Nowadays, many mortal women have a certain level of education. Even a cultivator cannot hide his emotions from his face.

Alas, this is the character of the immortal cultivators in this prosperous era. To be honest, Yi Dong is a little disappointed.

Yi Dong was just an ordinary immortal cultivator who had practiced for more than twenty years. Even if the Purple Gold Mountain collapsed, his life spirit plant withered, and his magical powers were broken, he would not lose control and scream.

Is it just a first or second level spiritual plant that should be treated like this?

I saw Zhai Shanshan stumbling into the yard.

After a while, a woman in colorful clothes, with long black hair like a waterfall and white wrists as white as frost, who was so beautiful that she didn't look like a real person came out with Zhai Shanshan. After seeing the scenery outside the door, her face changed, and then she looked sharply at Yi Dong and the green cow that was still ruminating beside him.

Yi Dong's expression also changed. He was not surprised by the woman's beauty, but by the aura she exuded.

Yi Dong would never forget this feeling. It was similar to the feeling he had with Ding Yunxian, the dean of Qingzhu Taoist Academy.

Yi Dong was so upset.

We agreed to meet the instructor, but you brought me directly to see the dean. This move really let him down.

If it was an instructor from Lijiang Taoist Academy, Yi Dong would not be afraid at all. They were all in the Qi Refining stage. Could it be that the Qi you refined was a little stronger? No matter how powerful it was, how much more powerful could it be than his?

You dare to make me wait so long? Is it too much for me to let the spirit beast eat some spirit plants?

But now Yi Dong felt that he had gone too far.

"I can explain!"

Yi Dong, who was unwilling to suffer a loss, immediately wanted to explain that it was Qingniu's fault and had nothing to do with him.

Unfortunately, what was faster than Yi Dong's voice was a black rope, which instantly broke through Yi Dong's force field magic weapon and trapped him tightly, leaving even his mouth exposed. The black rope also restricted the circulation of his spiritual power.

Also trapped was Qingniu.

Yi Dong and Qing Niu were dragged into the yard together.
