Chapter 131 Purdue Heavenly Lord Qinan County is the most difficult place among the nine counties in the South. The climate here is worse than that in Xiannan County. From time to time, there are strong winds, sweeping away the already poor crops.
If it weren't for the branch of the Daxia River passing through Qinan County, it would have been unsuitable for people to live here, and there would be no such thing as nine counties in the south.
"Your Majesty, Xiaoyao Palace is guarding Qinan County all day long. Is Xian Wuchang's rebellion really related to Xiaoyao Palace? Could it be that Prince Xiang is trying to shirk responsibility..."
Jue Panshi wiped the sweat from his face, looking a little surprised.
The climate here is unbearable even for an explosive warrior like him. If you can stay in such a difficult place, you should not have any stray thoughts.
"Prince Xiang has no responsibilities to shirk. It doesn't matter whether he leaves Xiaoyao Palace or not. He moved out of Xiaoyao Palace just to let this matter come to an end.
To prevent Xiaoyao Palace from making trouble again in the future. "
Fang Chen smiled lightly and said: "My old man already knew that something was not right with Xiaoyao Palace. After all these years of investigation, he also vaguely knows the origin of Xiaoyao Palace."
The origin of Xiaoyao Palace?
Jue Panshi couldn't help but look at the mountain road not far away. At the end of the mountain road was the site of Xiaoyao Palace. Ordinary people could not find this place.
What is the origin of Xiaoyao Palace? "He's just an old man from a certain empire's royal family. He wandered to Daxia and lay dormant for many years. He just wanted to use the soil of Daxia to restore his country."
Fang Chen said as he walked towards the mountain.
Jue Panshi and the others were stunned for a moment after hearing this, with a flash of horror in their eyes. So it turns out that Xiaoyao Palace has such a history?
After drinking tea, everyone came to a Taoist temple. Green smoke curled up inside the Taoist temple, and the majestic building gave people a sense of solemnity.
"I'll call the door."
Jue Panshi said that he was going to call the door, but Fang Chen waved his hand gently: "No need to call the door, there is no one here, just go in and take a look."
Empty? Everyone in Xiaoyao Palace ran away?
Jue Panshi looked a little weird, feeling that Xiaoyao Palace shouldn't react so quickly. After all, even if they received the news, it would take some time to come back and forth.
In order to verify his thoughts, Jue Panshi smashed the door with a palm, and then led people in. As a result, after walking around, there was no one there. Except for the chirping of birds, the surroundings were lonely.
Many of the fierce sword guards looked at Fang Chen with more and more respect. Fang Chen could tell that there was no one in Xiaoyao Palace just by standing outside the door. Such methods were already extraordinary and holy.
"Your Majesty, there are indeed no chickens or dogs left in Xiaoyao Palace, they have all escaped..."
Jue Panshi came to the front hall and saw Fang Chen standing silently in front of the statue of Pudu Tianzun, so he stepped forward and reported in a low voice.
After a few breaths, Jue Panshi saw that Fang Chen was just staring at the statue of Pudu Tianzun without replying, so he showed a sarcastic expression and ordered his men to guard every corner of the hall while he waited quietly.
Little did he know that Fang Chen's soul had already left his body and was suspended in mid-air, looking at the statue of Pudu Tianzun with a surprised expression.
The originally ordinary statue looked a bit extraordinary in Fang Chen's eyes. It exuded a faint golden glow, and wisps of white energy visible to the naked eye came from all directions and were continuously injected into the statue.
"Is this the incense of the people of Daxia? Does the theory of incense... really exist in the world?"
Fang Chen was secretly shocked.
If these white vapors are really incense, then... Pudu Tianzun also really exists?There really is such a person in the world...is he a god? Just when he was surprised, something even more surprising happened.
Pudu Tianzun's eyes slowly turned and fell on Fang Chen!
"Fellow Daoist who has left the body?" Pudu Tianzun spoke slowly.
"No...you only have five immortal veins in your body, and you are only at the fifth level of Qi refining!"
Pudu Tianzun changed the subject, with a hint of surprise in his voice: "Your soul is extremely strong, but which holy elixirs on the elixir list did you swallow when you were young?"
Fang Chen suppressed the shock in his heart and tried to be calm. Anyway, this experience was not the first time. Senior Yunhe also found that he had a strong soul.
"Are you... Pudu Tianzun?"
Fang Chen's voice was slightly respectful.
"Well, it's me."
Pudu Tianzun's voice became hollow and aloof. He looked Fang Chen up and down, "I never thought that there would be such an alien like you in the country that I worship. Please tell me what elixir you swallowed in the first place."
"This junior has never swallowed the elixir."
Fang Chen cupped his fists and said.
"Never?"
There was a trace of doubt in Pudu Tianzun's voice. After a few breaths, he seemed to decide not to delve into the matter and said calmly:
"The country you live in doesn't seem to have a strong national fortune. It's only a ninth-grade one? It's really rare to have a monk like you. You can be regarded as an immortal citizen under my command. In this case, it's fate to meet you today. I will give you the ability to practice. This book of Dharma will help you practice well."
After saying this, Pudu Tianzun slowly raised his hand and made an invisible mark. Fang Chen suddenly had a method of cultivation in his mind, which was also a Qi refining method, from the first level to the twelfth level of Qi refining.
"I will give you another hundred low-grade spiritual stones."
Another mark was made, and this time Fang Chen had a map in his mind.
"If you go to the place marked on the mark, you can get one hundred lower-grade spiritual stones. But with your current level of cultivation, I'm afraid it will be difficult to go there. We'll wait until you reach the twelfth level of Qi Refining."
Pudu Tianzun said calmly.
Fang Chen took a look at the map in his mind. Although it was incomplete, it did mark a place, but he had never heard of the name of this place. It was called Guihan.
But when he took a closer look at the surrounding geography and mountains, he was shocked. This Guihan was clearly near Hanshui Kingdom! "Okay, I can't stay in the mortal world for a long time, so I'll say goodbye. If you see my statue in the future and have any problems with your practice, you can leave your body and ask me for instructions."
After saying that, the statue of Pudu Tianzun gradually returned to normal.
The memory in his mind told Fang Chen that what he had just seen was not an illusion. Thinking of this, his soul immediately returned to his physical body, and then broke through the rock and said: "gone."
Just gone? Jue Panshi was a little stunned, but he still followed Fang Chen and left here. After going down the mountain, Fang Chen suddenly turned around and glanced at Xiaoyao Palace, his eyes full of solemnity and fear.
What kind of evil can a monk pretending to be a god be? Senior Yunhe had said at the beginning that even he didn't know whether there were immortals in the world, but the first time Pudu Tianzun said that he had left his body, his identity had been exposed.
Compared with Senior Yunhe, this Pudu Tianzun is more like the leader of some kind of cult! As for the Purdue Qi Refining Technique he passed down, Fang Chen does not intend to practice it, nor does he intend to practice it for others. He is afraid that this technique will be imprinted, and the other party may use it to do some bad things.
Not long after Fang Chen left, the statue of Pudu Tianzun moved again, as if whispering softly:
"The holy elixir on the elixir list... As long as he practices the Purdue Qi Refining Method, I can know his exact location, or I can learn from him the location of the treasure place where the holy elixir is grown."
