Chapter 125: Immortality is Immortal
There is the whereabouts of the devil's relics in the Buddhist scriptures. Although Lu Xin didn't know what it was. Master Xuanhong was Xuanzang's senior brother, and Li Shimin personally invited the host from the Pure Land Temple. Even the things he had to protect to the death must be of great importance. However, this was the matter of the court. Now he was not yet involved. Therefore, it was the most appropriate to hand it over to Wei Zheng for handling.
After leaving Kaiyuan Gate, Lu Xin went straight to Longshouyuan in the north. When he was still in the Wei Mansion, Lu Xin received a talisman from Li Chunfeng across the air and asked him to meet him at Longshouyuan. The master and disciple had practiced on Longshouyuan for a few days before the Chang'an Killing Tribulation. Now that the Killing Tribulation has passed, he has returned to Longshouyuan to meet, which has a beginning and an end.
"I remember Lu Tingfang seemed to say that in order to build a summer palace for Emperor Li Yuan, Li Shimin would build a large-scale construction on Longshouyuan, which was originally named Yong'an Palace. After Emperor Gaozong ascended the throne, he expanded the country and was known as the Daming Palace in history. At this point, this originally deserted land became the political center of the entire Tang Dynasty. However, after Wu Zetian became emperor, he soon moved the capital to Luoyang. These emperors could really make trouble."
During the mountaineering process, Lu Xin remembered some things he heard when he was studying history with Lu Tingfang. The Daming Palace, as the second imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty, had an important historical status. The ancients built houses, whether they were yin houses or yang houses, even ordinary people would try their best to find a Feng Shui treasure land, let alone the royal family. During the reign of Emperor Gaozong, the Daming Palace was built with the status of the main palace. As the foundation of a palace, the Feng Shui of Longshouyuan is of course important. But from Lu Xin's current perspective, the Feng Shui of Longshouyuan is really not very good.
When we reached the top of the mountain, it was almost time to go. The scientific research in Qunxianfang was still in full swing. Li Chunfeng was still sitting on the edge of the cliff, looking at the entire Chang'an.
"Master, what happened at the last moment of last night? Why haven't you come back all night?"
As soon as he saw Li Chunfeng, Lu Xin asked two questions. At the last moment of the killing disaster, all Lu Xin's memories were blurred. The moment Taiyin Youying came to the world, he lost all consciousness. By the time he recovered, everything had settled.
"Someone used the demonic weapon of the foreign race to innate the ultimate yin energy in the earth veins of the Fengdu Ghost Realm. He also cast spells in secret and evolved into Taiyin Youying, hoping to use this to deceive the Tang King. But in the end, he was stopped by his master and the head of the Immortal Immortal Sect."
"Foreign demon weapon? Taiyin Youying? Also, who is the head of the Immortal Immortal Sect?"
Li Chunfeng's answer not only did not solve Lu Xin's problem, but made him even more confused. He had never even heard of several of the nouns. Especially the last Immortal Immortal Sect was not among the five strongest sects. However, at this time, Li Chunfeng mentioned it at least all the cultivation level of the God Realm. However, the major sects in the world had only ambiguous relationship with the imperial court. The rest, even if they were not hostile, were neutral.
When Li Chunfeng heard this, he did not answer immediately, but waved his hand and signaled Lu Xin to sit down next to him. Looking at this time, Li Chunfeng's complexion was very poor, and his breath was also very weak. The whole person gave Lu Xin the feeling of being weak and sick.
"The so-called Taiyin Youying is the legendary ancient holy beast. Or, it is one of the incarnations of heaven and earth. In short, this thing is not a good existence. It is said that when the chaos first opened, Pangu gave up his physical body to evolve all things in the world. Among them, the left eye turned into the essence of Taiyin and combined with the ultimate yin Qi in the earth vein, giving birth to a holy beast that specializes in eating evil thoughts. All things in the world, all those with spirits have evil thoughts. Evil thoughts are immortal, and Taiyin Youying is not dead. In fact, no one has seen this thing. What I dealt with last night was just a magic weapon hidden deep in the thunder clouds."
"It's just a magic weapon? It requires so many masters to deal with it together? And you, Master, are seriously injured."
Lu Xin was a little shocked. What kind of magic weapon does several Onmyoji need to deal with it in the divine realm? Moreover, it also injured Li Chunfeng. This so-called "foreign demon weapon" is too powerful, right?
"It took too much mana to damage some vitality, and it would be better to cultivate for a few days. As for whom this foreign demon weapon was brought into Chang'an, it is still difficult to make a conclusion. The head of the Immortal Sect suspected that it was a Persian state or a Byzantine thing. However, the envoys of both countries were killed a few days ago and had no evidence of death."
"The Immortal Immortal Sect... According to the master, this leader is Tan Zongxiao, the minister of Yinyang Temple?"
"It's this person." Li Chunfeng nodded, with a little more praise in his tone. "I only learned about it last night. The Immortal Immortal Sect is a new sect that has only appeared in the past ten years. It is very mysterious and low-key, and he hardly interferes in the cultivation world and the court. He originally thought that Tan Zongxiao was just a casual cultivator. But now, the Immortal Immortal Sect is the real Yin-Yang Temple. The Immortal Temple and the Demon-Suppressing Academy are just a small part of this sect. The court is afraid that there are great plans."
"So that's it. This is too terrible. The court openly prohibits the people from cultivating immortals and practicing Taoism, and wants to suppress the sects of the world. But secretly, he created another sect. Immortal Immortal Sect, Immortal is an immortal... What a big tone. Can Li Shimin actually tolerate such titles?"
"This is the key to the matter. The Immortal Immortal Sect appeared more than ten years ago, and at that time Li Shimin was just the King of Qin. There was the crown prince Li Jiancheng, the civil and military officials below, and there was also the King of Qi Li Yuanji in the middle. If anyone could inherit the throne, it would be the crown prince to take the lead. If nothing unexpected happens, it would be impossible for him to turn."
“Master means…”
Hearing this, Lu Xin was shocked and stood up suddenly. Although Li Chunfeng said lightly, anyone who understood the meaning would probably be frightened.
Ten years ago, the King of Qin, Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji, the throne, the Immortal Immortal Sect... all these terms were linked, which made people extremely terrifying. For the people in the world, what happened in the Xuanwu Gate Incident three years ago, how many people and how many forces were involved in it, it was not clear at all. And all the dynasties, the prince's power was the strongest. Li Shimin did have great military achievements and a very good reputation, but it was not enough to make Li Yuan abolish Li Jiancheng and change his title to the crown prince. If he wanted to seize the throne, he would inevitably have a mutiny. But this required huge power, otherwise it would not be enough to defeat the two major forces of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji at the same time. Moreover, in this era with Onmyoji, it was obviously not enough to have troops alone.
"Okay, these are just speculations of the teacher. As for the truth, it will sooner or later, but it is not that it is useless to think too much now. I want you to do something for the teacher."
"Master, please tell me."
"The teacher's injury requires a single fairy grass to heal. Chang'an is the imperial capital, with fish and dragons mixed together, and the sea is full of rivers. All the people in the world should be able to buy it. If you find a tree for the teacher, this bottle of pill should be enough."
Li Chunfeng handed a jade bottle to Lu Xin and told him to be careful not to leak the news. Lu Xin naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, nodded repeatedly, and soon got off the Dragon Shouyuan.
Although Li Chunfeng's injury was said to be very lightly by himself. Lu Xin was not a fool. Just looking at his master's complexion, you can tell that he was seriously injured, and even reached the point where he could not move. When he reached the level of Li Chunfeng's cultivation, he would generally never be injured. A master who can fight with Onmyoji in the realm without losing his power, in the world, can not hurt him much. But once such a person is injured, he is extremely severe.
"Ambergia... From the master's tone, this thing should be considered a treasure of nature. It can be used by Onmyoji to heal wounds, and it will definitely not be bought in ordinary places."
It was already six o'clock when he returned to Chang'an. The sun was in the sky and it was very hot. Lu Xin didn't know where to buy the ambergris needed by Li Chunfeng, so he decided to go back to Qian Mansion first and ask Qian Xiaoyue.
Entering the city from Jinguang Gate is Qunxianfang. Huaiyuanfang where Qian Mansion is located is located at the other end of the West City. When passing by Xishi, Lu Xin suddenly stopped and prepared to stroll around. Chang'an is the gathering place of goods in the world, and Xishi is the largest trading market in Chang'an City. Perhaps, the whereabouts of ambergris can be found. After all, Li Chunfeng means that he will do this alone. The fewer people know, the better.
On the night he first entered Chang'an, Lu Xin had been shopping in the West City. But it was night, and no matter how bright the lights were, the scene in his eyes was very different from the daytime. In addition, there was a sudden fire, Lu Xin had not really understood Xi City. At this time, he had a vision of the West City and felt the prosperity of Xi City in person.
Here, not only goods from all over the country, but also goods from the Western Regions and even from the European continent. Most of the people who operate these transactions are powerful forces, families, sects, and even some industries are run by the government and controlled by the court. In fact, there are very few small transactions for individuals.
Lu Xin wandered in the west city for more than half an hour before finding an area that specializes in buying and selling herbs. The area is not large, but there are also two streets in front and back, hundreds of shops and stalls. Moreover, there are a lot of people on the street, which is very chaotic. Lu Xin quickly entered several stores, but there was no whereabouts of ambergris, and even a few shopkeepers, who had never heard of ambergris' name. This disappointed Lu Xin a little.
But just as he left the fifth store, a young man dressed in a gangster suddenly jumped out of the crowd on the street.
"This young man is in a hurry, probably because he is in trouble? To be honest, these small shops have nothing good. If you want to find some life-saving herbs, you must find the right place first."
