The Dao dies but I live on, the spiritual energy dries up but I remain evergreen

The incense really did work.

Although it does not directly increase one’s lifespan, the speed at which one’s lifespan is lost is greatly reduced due to the influence of incense.

To put it in more vivid terms.

The speed at which their lives are passing away is 0.8 times that of the rest of the people.

But...

Already the limit.

Since the day when the master and disciple met.

Mu Qin no longer placed herself in a high position and studied hard in seclusion. Instead, she traveled around the country and personally visited every Hemu Temple to listen to the people's prayers and lend a helping hand.

In this way, after several years, the incense became more popular.

Mu Qin suddenly looked back and finally realized that before, she only had incense but failed to digest it.

"Digesting the incense" does not mean that the two need to personally fulfill the wishes of every pilgrim, but that they need to put themselves in the right place, recognize from the bottom of their hearts the connection between the position of the deity and the people, and give charity from the heart.

I suddenly realized this truth.

Mu Qin then realized that what she had done before was actually completely contrary to the incense.

Thanks to someone.

The incense that has been digested still cannot be used for spiritual practice.

However, it can be used to perform some simple spells without using spiritual energy or cultivation.

Of course, it is only simple in her eyes. In the eyes of mortals, it is also a genuine immortal method.

This is the end.

Mu Qin is the only one who dares to say that she has entered the door of incense and worship.

But it’s just the beginning.

"Before the spiritual energy was exhausted, incense was not my path. I didn't know much about it." Mu Qin shook her head lightly, feeling a little regretful.

Si Nian asked, "Master, I remember that before the spiritual energy dried up, many sects dabbled in incense. Does that mean that now, if they want to study this, they will naturally have an advantage?"

"Or is it that the cultivators who practiced incense in the past were less affected than us when their spiritual energy was exhausted?"

After hearing this, Mu Qin shook her head and said, "Before the spiritual energy was exhausted, most of the incense was used to shape the golden body, practice magic, refine magic tools, etc."

"Their cultivation foundation is not much different from that of ordinary cultivators, so the impact they suffer is the same."

Speaking of this, Mu Qin actually found it a little funny.

This seems to be the fairest one.

She continued:

"Also, although they are both called 'the way of incense', their meanings are very different. As far as I know, the incense that those sects refer to is not this kind of folk incense, which they look down upon. Rather, it is a kind of pure air."

"Similar to the pure energy such as Haoran Zhengqi and Xuanhuang Qi."

The energy in the world can be divided into two major categories: clear and turbid, which generally mean good and bad, positive and evil. They are a strange energy different from spiritual energy.

It often appears as a means for cultivators, and some techniques even take these clear and turbid air as the foundation and use them for cultivation.

But after the spiritual energy was exhausted, countless kinds of clear and turbid air in the world also dissipated, and no one could avoid this disaster.

Speaking of which.

Si Nian already roughly understood.

However, her words gave Mu Qin an inspiration.

Although the two types of incense are very different, there are still things we can learn from each other.

Now that she is facing a bottleneck, she needs all kinds of collisions of ideas.

"Kyukoji..." Her eyes flickered slightly.

This force was once one of the most powerful in the incense world.

An idea came to her.

While she was thinking.

Si Nian seemed to have thought of something, "Master, it seems that the Ten Thousand Immortals Summit is coming soon, and there are still two years to go."

"Should we... go?" Si Nian asked.

"Of course I will go. I must go." Mu Qin said firmly.

Resolute attitude.

"There are too many monks at the Ten Thousand Immortals Summit. If a fight breaks out, or someone comes with ill intentions..." Si Nian asked. This was what she had always been worried about.

In fact, she vaguely guessed that her master had died once.

Her master possesses a twin body of the Great Dao, with two lives and two appearances, which he can switch between at will.

With Master’s fame, he has many enemies in the cultivation world. If he loses another life, he will be really dead.

This is what she is worried about.

"Don't worry." Mu Qin said, "This meeting is hosted by Li Xundao, the leader of the Dao Sect. It is a matter of great importance, even to the survival of all cultivators in the world."

"With his ability, he won't let this happen."

"The leader of the Dao Sect, Li Xundao." Si Nian repeated silently, "Does the master trust this leader of the Dao Sect so much? What if he has ulterior motives..."

The words have not yet been spoken.

Mu Qin interrupted.

Mu Qin said: "If we talk about who the cultivators in this world should trust the most, it's probably the leader of this Taoist sect."

"If someone else was the host of this Ten Thousand Immortals Summit, I would subconsciously doubt whether it was risky to go, what was their intention in inviting me, whether there would be any gain from taking the risk... and so on."

"But if it was Li Xundao who invited them, more than 80% of the cultivators would go without hesitation."

"You have only been practicing for a short time, and you don't know Li Xundao well."

As Mu Qin spoke, she walked outside and gently closed the door of the Hemu Temple.

under the moonlight.

The streets were empty.

Occasionally, the barking of dogs could be heard in the distance, and from far away on the next street came the night watchman's shout of "Be careful with fire, it's dry" and the sound of gongs.

Mu Qin said calmly: "This person...is a genius beyond compare!"

Si Nian's pupils trembled. It was rare to hear his master evaluate someone in this way.

Mu Qin continued, "First, this person was born in Dao Sect and is of the highest generation. You still remember Zhang Longhu, one of the few masters in the world who can control thunder magic. You have fought with his disciples before, and the outcome was inconclusive."

"Remember." Si Nian nodded.

Mu Qin said: "He is Zhang Longhu's ancestor."

"In addition, on the day he was born, there was a terrifying vision. A blue lotus covered the sky above Dao Zong."

"The Divine Calculation Sect divined the secrets of heaven that day. The Sect Master at that time spat out three mouthfuls of blood and only came up with four words: the person who will be doomed!"

"Since that day, the Shensuan Sect and the Dao Sect have become friends."

What Mu Qin said were all secrets in the world of cultivation.

Mu Qin did not emphasize Li Xundao's strength anymore. The eight words "the leader of the Dao Sect and the one who should be robbed of his calamity" were enough to explain a lot.

She then told Si Nian that the reason she could trust Li Xundao so much was because of the Tao he practiced...

The most holy way!

As early as when he was in the Nascent Soul stage, he had cut off all his emotions and desires, but it was different from the ruthless way. The ruthless way cut off all emotions and desires completely, even directly killing one's own relatives to prove the way, while the Supreme Saint Way only cut off emotions and desires, but left the roots of emotions and desires. Emotions and desires still existed, but they would not sway one's decision-making.

It is for this reason.

The ruthless path will not stand up.

The Most Holy Way Society.

Therefore, he was destined to be the one who stood up.
