MTL - Seeking Good Fortune and Avoiding Misfortune Starts From Tianshi Mansion-Chapter 15 The Overlord of Tao Tong
Chapter 15 15. The Overlord among the Taoists
Lei Jun was a little surprised, looking at Tang Xiaotang's appearance.
The other party spoke first: "Don't make me angry again!"
Speaking, he sat down and sulked to himself.
"I want to say..." Lei Jun raised his hand and made two gesticulations on his hair and eyebrows with his fingers.
Tang Xiaotang was stunned for a moment before coming back to his senses: "Hey, I'm so angry!"
After saying this, the light golden color of her hair and eyebrows faded away and turned black again, and her eyes returned to their original appearance.
Xu Yuanzhen, Yuan Mobai, and Wang Guiyuan walked in at this time.
“You chose your master yourself, so you should have been mentally prepared.”
Xu Yuanzhen sat down and said: "I have decided to make an exception and pass on the Three Realms Sutra to you again, so as not to delay your subsequent practice."
She frowned slightly and looked out the window in trance.
Tang Xiaotang was curious: "Hey, senior sister, are you worried about me? I thought you only liked to see others suffer misfortune."
Xu Yuanzhen: “First of all, don’t be sentimental, I don’t have time to worry about you.
Then, I don’t like to see people being unlucky, I just like to see some people being unlucky.
Most of the time, this ‘someone’ includes you. "
“I just like to see you unlucky!” Tang Xiaotang snorted.
Yuan Mobai said warmly: "Xiaotang, since you have decided not to participate in this transmission, then adjust your state of mind and continue to concentrate on your own cultivation.
Senior brother had previously issued a decree to leave the country during the New Year. Although it has been delayed, I think it won’t be delayed for too long. "
Tang Xiaotang said gloomily: "I know, little uncle."
Lei Jun looked at her and suddenly remembered an old joke:
"You don't have to mind too much, little senior sister. With your talent, even if you stay in the Taoist Academy and become the top scholar, you will still be the overlord among the Taoists."
Tang Xiaotang was stunned for a moment: "The overlord among Taoists? How far can that be achieved?"
Lei Jun: "Still a Taoist boy."
Tang Xiaotang: “Go, go, go!”
Lei Jun smiled, and after laughing, he looked thoughtful.
With this situation now, does it count as the fortune of winning the lottery and starting to come true?
…
In a quiet room, a young Taoist priest and a female Taoist boy were sitting opposite each other.
Young Taoist priest: "It's a pity this time."
The female Taoist boy is none other than Elder Ziyang’s youngest daughter, Li Ying.
She sighed: "My uncle didn't come out of seclusion as scheduled, what should I do?"
Young Taoist Priest: "That's right. I don't know when my uncle will be released from seclusion. You can't delay your practice. Just come with me and learn Taoism from your father."
Li Ying nodded.
“However, this apprenticeship turmoil has allowed us to see clearly who is restless.” The young Taoist priest changed the topic: “Chen Yi, Shangguan Hong!”
Li Ying: "I heard that Lei Jun from the Sixth Branch and Guo Yan from the Seventh Branch are also good."
Young Taoist priest: "I won't tell you whether these two people are talented or not. At least they are honest and don't have any wrong ideas.
Chen Yi and Shangguan Hong are different. Hehe, these young men are very sharp and have great momentum. They need to be suppressed. "
Li Ying frowned: "Second brother, isn't this bad?"
Young Taoist Priest: "Don't worry, I don't want to do anything to them. It's just that two small branches have grown wild. If you prune them a little and use gentle movements, they won't even notice."
…
This year, there was a stir that a Taoist boy wanted to be directly worshiped as a Heavenly Master, but it was always under the surface and quickly dissipated.
When the transfer ceremony actually came, no one mentioned it again.
Except for Tang Xiaotang, who is determined to continue his great career as the overlord of Tao Tong, everyone else has their own belongings again.
Li Ying from the first branch learned Taoism directly from her father, Elder Ziyang.
Shangguan Hong from the Second Branch Academy studied Taoism under the fifth junior sister of the Heavenly Master.
The fifth senior sister of Yuan Mobai, the fifth senior uncle of Xu Yuanzhen, also named Shangguan, is the distant aunt of Shangguan Hong.
Chen Yi from the eighth branch studied Taoism under the disciple of Elder Yao, the fourth junior disciple of Tianshi.
In public news, the three Taoist boys wanted to worship these three elders as their teachers from the very beginning.
The matter of striving to become the direct descendant of the Heavenly Master seems to have never existed from the beginning.
But privately, there are still rumors circulating.
There are two protagonists in the news. One is naturally Tang Xiaotang, and it is difficult for others to compete with her for news attention.
The other one is Chen Yi.
According to rumors, he also wanted to not participate in this transmission and continue to wait for the Celestial Master to come out of seclusion.
This is nothing at all. It is considered a kind of personal freedom allowed by the government. At best, it means that people are too stubborn and enthusiastic people worry about missing talents.
But Chen Yi next wants to seek the same special treatment as Tang Xiaotang.
With the Dharma taught in the government office, the treatment will be the same as that of the Taoist priests who teach the true version or even higher.
As soon as the news came out, everyone couldn't help but be in an uproar privately.
After hearing this, Lei Jun’s first thought was:
"The Li family's descendants spread the rumor, right? Can you be sure whether it's true or false?"
“It is estimated that someone from the Li family Taoist family heard the news and deliberately released it to cause trouble for Chen Yi.” Wang Guiyuan shook his head repeatedly: “But it is true, it is true.”
Lei Jun could guess with his knees that although the Li family members put Chen Yi on the fire afterwards, they supported Chen Yi in the whole matter.
Tang Xiaotang has already been the first to make an exception. If Chen Yi can follow up and tear the gap wider, it is not difficult to imagine who will be the next group in the government to benefit most.
But having said that, Chen Yi may be well aware that he is being used as a weapon by others, but he undoubtedly still wants to get one for himself.
As a result, Tang Xiaotang, who felt questioned, choked out a "golden sentence":
“I am an immortal body, what are you?”
Many people were silenced on the spot.
“Immortal body, no wonder...” Lei Jun rubbed his eyebrows.
On top of the general five-level root and bone qualifications of lower grade, middle lower grade, middle grade person, middle upper grade, and upper grade, there is also a stronger cultivation physique.
Such as Lei Jun’s current hidden dragon spirit body.
The holy body above the spiritual body.
as well as…
The immortal body above the holy body.
It has been rare for many years for the Taoist Holy Land, Tianshi Mansion, and one has to try one's luck to receive an entry-level Immortal Body.
Compared to geniuses and monsters in the general sense, this kind of person can also be called a genius among geniuses and a monster among monsters, like a banished immortal descending into the mortal world.
Fortunately, although the opportunity is rare, the spirit body still has the opportunity to continue to improve. Let's see if he can have a good opportunity to improve his bones in the future... Lei Jun thought to himself.
But then again…
Lei Jun covered his face: "...the appearance of the young senior sister is somewhat difficult to match up with the banished immortal. I feel very happy when I think about it."
Although Tang Xiaotang said "you" and was targeting Chen Yi, she really fired a big map bomb.
Let alone Taoist boys like Li Ying and Shangguan Hong, even the senior elders of the division are probably under the cover of artillery fire...
Lei Jun: "Back to the question of young senior sister, she has an immortal body, where is Chen Yi?"
Wang Guiyuan glanced at Lei Jun: "I didn't hear the news before, but it was only this time that I found out that Chen Yi is the spirit body of Cheng Kong."
Chengkong spiritual body, an ethereal body, is conducive to absorbing the spiritual energy of the outside world.
In terms of physical qualifications, it is slightly inferior to the Qianlong spirit body.
As a balance, the physical body reflects the soul. The monks with clear spiritual bodies have empty minds, which is more conducive to concentration on practice and enlightenment, so they are also spiritual bodies that surpass the top-grade bones.
According to Wang Guiyuan, Chen Yi was criticized by Tang Xiaotang, but his reaction was surprisingly calm at the time. He only said that although he was not an immortal, he could still make a great contribution to the Tianshi Mansion, and he asked all teachers to make a decision based on this.
Lei Jun: "Oh? What contribution?"
"have no idea."
Wang Guiyuan spread his hands: "For confidentiality reasons, only the master and a few elders, the senior sister, and the senior brother are staying, and everyone else has been screened out."
Lei Jun was not disappointed: "The final result was that Chen Yi failed to achieve his wish. His stated contribution was not enough to impress the elders."
Wang Guiyuan: “That’s it.”
Lei Jun: "The good show to make Senior Sister happy may be right here."
Wang Guiyuan is not concerned: "The less involved you are in this kind of thing, the better. Don't be greedy for temporary glory. It's best to avoid it if you can."
Lei Jun smiled and nodded.
At the moment, he is more concerned about what kind of fourth-grade chance he has predicted for the lottery he chose.
Next, although there are rumors circulating about Tang Xiaotang, Chen Yi and others, no one dares to act openly.
This year’s transmission ceremony begins as scheduled.
