Chapter 59: The Sweeping Monk in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion?
There is a wooden table in the lobby of the Sutra Pavilion. In front of the table is a young disciple who looks about twenty years old and wearing a white disciple's sword robe. He looks quite handsome, recording the martial arts chosen by each disciple. Behind the table, there is a reclining chair next to the young disciple. On the reclining chair, there is an old man with white bearded seemingly closing his eyes to rest, waving a palm-leaf fan in his hand, muttering something in his mouth.
What made Jiang Liu feel strange was that every disciple who entered and left bowed to the old man when he passed by.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Liu couldn't help but think of the legendary sweeping monk, "Can he be the kind of hidden powerhouse?" With curiosity, Jiang Liu walked to the ancient table and took out his identity and jade slip and handed it to the record of the disciple.
After getting the identity jade slip handed over to Jiang Liu, the disciple checked it and said softly.
"New inner disciples can choose two sects within two hours below the second floor. As for the exercises or swordsmanship, please consider them yourself. Remember, the important areas of the Sutra Pavilion are not allowed to make noise, and those who violate the violation will be severely punished."
After the recorder finished speaking, for some reason, he felt that the ordinary disciple in front of him looked a little strange, but he couldn't say anything strange. He didn't think much about it, so he didn't think much about it. After handing back the jade slip to the other party, he found that there was no one behind him, so he continued to focus on the ancient books he had in his hands.
After taking back the disciple's identity, Jiang Liu passed by the "recliner monk". In order not to have unnecessary trouble, he followed the actions of other disciples just now and bowed to him in a decent manner and gave him a bow.
As soon as he gave a gift, Jiang Liu felt that he did not respect the other party enough, and the old man on the lounge chair might be the legendary "sweeping monk", so Jiang Liu gave him a big gift.
Like other disciples, Jiang Liu's body was bent by ninety degrees. This gift should be enough to express his respect for him.
When Jiang Liu bowed and bowed, the old man lying on the chair opened one with his narrow eyes. After looking at Jiang Liu, he seemed to find something interesting. He closed his open eyes and opened his other eye. After a glance at Jiang Liu, he smiled a little more on his old face and closed it again.
Because Jiang Liu gave a greeting, he did not see the old man's smile. After performing the greeting, he walked into the lobby.
Although Jiang Liu did not see it, the disciples who were recording beside him could see it clearly.
He seemed to be looking at the ancient books in his hand, but his mind had never left the old man on the lounge chair.
When I saw the old man's smile, the disciple was a little confused. Because of his understanding of the old man, he usually looked calm and there was nothing to arouse his interest. Now he suddenly smiled, which means that he must have seen something interesting.
At this time, the old man on the recliner spoke, "Xiao Chen! You have been here for a while, right?"
Hearing the old man on the recliner, the recorder said with some joy: "It has been three years."
"Well! Three years have indeed been a while. What do you think of these three years?"
"Thoughts!" Hearing ancient words, Lu Lichen recalled every bit of his past four years. Finally, he got a word, Jing.
The mind is calm, the energy is quiet, the mind is quiet, and the spirit is quiet. In the past three years, there has been unprecedented tranquility.
"Ancient, my disciple feels unprecedented quietness now."
"Jing, yes! Not bad! Not bad." Gu Lao shook the palm fan in his hand and nodded with satisfaction. "You won't use it after today."
Hearing Gu Lao let him leave, Lu Lichen panicked and said, "This... Gu Lao, but what is the disciple doing wrong? Do you want to drive the disciple away?"
"Xiao Chen, you are not doing badly. On the contrary, you have done very well. Now you have lost your heart and your spiritual realm has reached flawlessness. Staying here is useless. You can go back after today and go into seclusion. With your current realm, you will definitely be able to break through the foundation building within one month, and the spiritual foundation must also be able to reach flawlessness."
‘Building foundation, flawless.” Hearing ancient words, Lu Lichen’s calm heart was also turbulent. He had reached the peak of Qi Condensation, so he naturally understood what flawless foundation represents. Wasn’t his efforts over the years just for that step? Otherwise, he would have been able to break through long ago.
"Auntie...disciple..." Lu Lichen has been with Gu Lao for the past three years. Now Gu Lao let him leave, and he felt a little reluctant. But he also knew that Gu Lao's words have always been the same, and he could only follow them.
"Xiao Chen! What do you think of the disciple who came in just now?"
"The disciple who came in just now?" Lu Lichen looked at Gu Lao for no reason.
"Yes! What did you see?"
Lu Lichen knew that Gu Lao must have given some instructions to mention the disciple just now. It was like in the past four years that Gu Lao always mentioned him intentionally or unintentionally.
Lu Lichen thought about the disciple just now, and he also found something strange, but he couldn't say it. He seemed to want to ignore him intentionally or unintentionally, ignore it, by the way, ignore it. Lu Lichen seemed to have thought of something.
"Ancient, I feel that the disciple who came in just now has a very low presence, so I made the disciple want to ignore him intentionally or unintentionally. He may have used some kind of formation or other method to hide himself. As for the others, I really can't see it."
"Well! It's already good to be able to see this. However, you're missing the most important point."
"The most important point is ancient, please give me some advice." Lu Lichen bowed respectfully to ancient. This is what he is used to. When asking for advice, he should express respect.
Although Gu Lao didn't care much about these regular rituals, he still admired the polite disciples. "I heard that the disciple was a new inner disciple just now."
“Yes, ancient.”
"Interesting disciple. A new inner disciple understands formations and has a good finger creation. His cultivation level has reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi Condensation. He has also practiced a profound hidden method. If I hadn't looked at it more, I would have been missed."
"What! The peak of the ninth level of Qi Condensation?" Although the ancient words were very small, they deeply shocked Lu Lichen.
At the peak of the ninth level of Qi Condensation, you can know the formation and your finger creation is not low, and you can also know a profound hidden method. Even ancient people like this were not mistaken.
‘The peak of the ninth level of Qi Condensation is impossible!’
Although Lu Lichen has been here for the past three years, he is very familiar with the situation within the sect.
In their generation, the highest cultivation level is Ji Yuxue, who broke through to the foundation-building realm at the age of 22.
As for other disciples whose cultivation level reaches the ninth level of Qi Condensation, which one is not the disciple of the first elder of each peak, and he doesn't know the other one.
Now Gu Lao said that a newly promoted inner disciple had reached the ninth level of Qi Condensation, and it was still at its peak. Moreover, just now he saw that ordinary disciple was less than twenty years old, which made him unbelievable.
"Gu Lao, are you saying true?" Although he knew Gu Lao would definitely not lie to him, he still wanted to confirm it again.
"Haha, not bad. That kid is indeed very interesting. Apart from that little girl who broke through to the foundation-building realm at a young age, that kid just now might be your biggest opponent in the future."
"The biggest opponent, I didn't expect that Gu Lao would give him such a big evaluation. It seems that this new inner disciple should not be underestimated!"
"It's his evaluation and your evaluation. Be prepared well. The road to cultivation is lonely. Only your opponent is the source of motivation to inspire you to move forward." After Gu Lao said that, he waved the palm fan in his hand twice and kept silent.
Lu Lichen knew that Gu Lao was a resting action, so he bowed to Gu Lao with gratitude. His eyes were no longer in the ancient books in his hand, but floating in the lobby, still on the first floor, the new inner disciple Jiang Liu, who looked ordinary.
Lu Lichen has the ability to remember everything he has ever seen since he was a child. After helping Jiang Liu record information, he remembered his name as soon as he recalled it.
'River...River." After careful recollection, I found that there was still no news about the river. At this time, Lu Lichen remembered a very wide sentence that had been circulated during this period, 'A river of spring flows eastward, the river flow. So that's it. Is it him that Ji Yuxue is talking about? If it were him, he would be indeed qualified to be his opponent.'
Jiang Liu walked into the inside and felt like he was staring at him again. When he turned around, he found that the disciple who recorded the information was looking at him with a smile. What should I say about that smile? I thought, a man saw a beautiful woman, and a hunter. He saw prey and felt furrow in his heart.
After giving back a polite smile to the other party, he quickly turned around and refused to look at him.
The ancient building of Sutras is very large. Looking up from below, the middle of the ancient building is hollowed out, and the surrounding towers are unfolded. The scriptures and magic are placed on the platform. There are stairs on both sides of the ancient building leading upstairs.
Jiang Liu is now on the first floor. Although you can also see the top floor, the more you look at it, the blurry the picture becomes.
Jiang Liu knew that this should be caused by the formation. Moreover, this formation is not an ordinary formation. When he entered it, Jiang Liu knew why there were not so many guards here. With the formation here, who dared to have that kind of thought? And there is an existence similar to a sweeping monk here.
What Jiang Liu is most satisfied with is that there are indicators inside, and the scriptures inside are divided very carefully.
There are sword techniques, martial arts, magic, formations, talismans, etc.
