The old Taoist priest sighed: "It's not easy to keep your original intention!"

Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, looked at the old Taoist priest and asked: "Master, what is the original intention? Why should disciples maintain their original intention?"

"What is original intention? Didn't your previous master teach you this principle?"

Without waiting for Li Xiuyuan to continue asking, the old Taoist priest continued: "When a person does things, he can consistently maintain his original beliefs and not change with the changes of time."

"The original intention is the original intention. Ask yourself why you want to practice in the first place? Why do you want to go through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths? What is your purpose... When you stand at that height, you have not forgotten your original wish.

, that’s called maintaining the original intention.”

Li Xiuyuan's eyes gradually brightened after hearing these words.

He naturally knew the original intention of his original practice and the purpose of breaking through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Looking at the old Taoist priest, he smiled and said, "After listening to Master's words, I seem to understand a little bit."

There were many things in the old Taoist priest's heart, but he could not explain them to Li Xiuyuan at this time. He only hoped that his disciple could practice hard and break through the shackles of this world as soon as possible.

After taking another sip of the spiritual wine, the old Taoist priest couldn't help but admired: "Next, we won't fight monsters anymore. I will take you to the mountains to find spiritual fruits."

"While this is the season when spiritual fruits are ripe, pick more to make fruit wine. I will keep it for later and taste it slowly."

Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this. He looked at him and said quietly: "Even if we pick the spiritual fruit back, we still don't have anything to make wine, Master."

The old Taoist priest didn't even think about it. He shook his head and said, "Your mother has it. Let's pick more spiritual fruits. We can eat some on the road and use the rest to make wine."

As soon as Li Xiuyuan heard this, Master Xindao did not hesitate to advance the schedule a lot for the sake of brewing wine.

It was naturally a good thing for him. In this way, he could see his mother earlier.

The old Taoist priest seemed to know what he was thinking. He looked at him and smiled strangely: "Don't be complacent. We are thinking of ways to torture you. Your body is too weak."

Li Xiuyuan looked at him and sighed, smiling: "Master, Goudan is only twelve years old this year!"

Upon hearing this, the old Taoist priest looked at him and said with a smile: "We can't stay much longer... It's estimated that we will arrive in two to three days. Maybe your sister and the others have already returned home first."

"Really?" Looking at the old Taoist priest, Li Xiuyuan murmured: "I didn't expect that my sister was ahead of us. Was it because of Xiaohu's matter that I was delayed?"

"We are not in a hurry, so why are we in a hurry?"

The old Taoist priest looked at him and asked: "After you become mortal, is your goal to come to this Apricot Blossom Valley, or to Wuhua on Mount Xumi, or..."

Li Xiuyuan thought about what he had said to the woman in the white dress in Huangquan Village, and shook his head gently.

He said quietly: "Since the disciple has jumped out of the Three Realms, naturally his eyes cannot be set on Mount Sumeru. The disciple wants to travel through the nine heavens and ten lands, and then go to the legendary sea of ​​stars to see."

"Well said, since you have jumped out of the Three Realms, Wuhua on Mount Xumi is no longer your opponent to conquer!"

Having said this, the old Taoist priest couldn't help laughing. He was as happy as an old farmer who suddenly dug out a large piece of gold in his own land.

Li Xiuyuan lay on the bluestone slab under the tree, looking at the stars in the night sky above his head, wondering if one day he would be able to go there.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but reach out to the sky with my little hands, as if to pluck the brightest star.

...

On the second day, before noon, while Li Xiuyuan was still marinating and drying pieces of monster meat, the old Taoist priest had already prepared the elixir mixed with the monster pill and the body-tempering potion for him.

Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but smile when he saw the old Taoist priest busy and said: "Master, you just need to tell me about the preparation of the medicine. There is no need to bother you to do it yourself."

The old Taoist priest looked at him and shook his head with a smile: "These are nothing. Let's quickly marinate these monster meats and dry them, and then go on to more important things."

Hearing this, Li Xiuyuan stood up, stretched his waist, looked at him and said, "Master, you are already a god. From now on, you can just eat the fruit. Leave this monster meat to the disciples to eat slowly."

The old Taoist priest looked into his eyes and smiled: "You mean, as a teacher, you don't have to eat and drink? All the spiritual wine you brew from now on will belong to you alone?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head repeatedly and said, "I don't dare, I'm just joking with you."

"But I'm not kidding you. If you don't brew me ten jars of spiritual wine, we promise to torture you until you doubt your life."

A gust of mountain wind blew through the mountains, and Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but shudder.

Just the previous chaotic battle with a group of monsters had already made him doubt his life. If the old Taoist priest was unhappy and wanted to do it again, there was no guarantee that he would be able to react as quickly as before, and he would be able to turn disaster into good fortune every time.

"Master, I will try my best to satisfy you!" Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and replied timidly.

After noon, the master and the apprentice had a simple lunch.

While eating Li Xiuyuan said with a smile: "I was reading the classics in the academy of Shura Heaven Realm, and it said that Grandpa Immortal absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so you don't need to eat to eat the immortal fruit."

The old Taoist priest was stunned, couldn't help stroking his beard and laughed: "I am your master, not some god."

While Li Xiuyuan was making tea, he continued: "Sir, if my wife were here, she would definitely give me the answer. Master, just by summoning thunder and lightning, you would be a god."

The old Taoist priest shook his head and said with a smile: "Drink two cups of tea, and then temper your body and take medicine."

When Li Xiuyuan heard this, he could only lightly nod his head. Knowing that his master was probably going to make his life worse than death, he immediately felt that a knife had been inserted in his chest and abdomen, ready to cut himself.

The old Taoist priest couldn't help laughing when he saw his scared look: "I didn't feel scared when I saw you fighting against the monsters in the mountains!"

Li Xiuyuan chuckled and replied: "At that time, everything was a matter of life and death, how could I allow myself to be afraid?"

"It turns out that you will only forget about fear when you are between life and death? Then you might as well try taking these medicines to temper your body as if it were a matter between life and death!"

The old Taoist priest looked at his cute appearance and couldn't help but laugh again.

When the master and the disciple each held a cup of spiritual tea and enjoyed this rare quiet time, Li Xiuyuan lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then laughed stupidly.

"I said, Master, how can I learn the great principles of the treasure in my disciple's body?"

The old Taoist priest glared at him and said with a smile: "You can't rush this matter. How many years have you been practicing?... When you succeed in transforming into a mortal, you will naturally understand some truths."

"It turns out that we have to wait for so long... Then disciple, please be patient a little longer."

Li Xiuyuan opened his mouth and thought, Master, your skills are too difficult to learn!

However, the old Taoist priest ignored what he said, and then threw the prepared elixir into the barrel and said calmly: "Go and boil some water, soak it again today, it should be almost done.

"

When he soaked in the barrel and screamed, the old Taoist priest came over, holding a bowl of dark green medicine and said with a smile: "Here, drink a bowl of medicine and see if it can widen your muscles and veins."

Some."

Li Xiuyuan was stunned. Looking at the color of the concoction, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but frown: "The smell is so strong, master, are you sure this is not poison?"

The old Taoist priest ignored him, hugged his neck with one hand, and poured the concoction into his mouth.

Li Xiuyuan struggled to no avail, so he had no choice but to drink the bowl of inexplicable concoction. Before the old Taoist priest could sit down, he started screaming.

"It's so bitter and smelly. Master, this is not medicine, is it poison?"

Holding the barrel tightly with both hands, Li Xiuyuan shouted in agony. The moment the concoction entered his abdominal cavity, it was like a sharp knife cutting through the veins of his body.

Pain, at this time he only thought of this word to describe the current situation.

"Don't move around. You can't bear this little pain, and you still want to cultivate immortality?"

The old Taoist priest looked at him and said seriously: "What if you break through the realm and become a mortal? Cultivation is a long and endless road. When you climb a high mountain, you will find that there is another high mountain.

waiting for you."

Seeing the large drops of sweat on Li Xiuyuan's forehead and his desperate look, the old Taoist priest continued: "At that time, will you still risk your life to climb?"

Li Xiuyuan opened his mouth, but said nothing.

It wasn't that he didn't want to say it, but that he couldn't say it at all. At this time, he was close to the edge of collapse. He was so painful that he died. Li Xiuyuan grabbed the edge of the barrel tightly, and the sweat on his head couldn't stop dripping.

The old Taoist priest looked at him quietly, looking a little strange.

After a long time, he said softly: "I have traveled to countless mountains and rivers as my teacher, and seen countless strange people and strange things. What is strange is that I would accept you as my disciple."

Li Xiuyuan, who was in pain, didn't expect that his master would be like this. He couldn't help but feel it was a bit sudden, and he didn't even have time to think about the meeting between him and the old man in his dream.

I was just chatting with the old man in the Tower of Reincarnation, but I didn't expect to turn around and become the one above the Nine Heavens, beating up the dog eggs in Dog Town.

Thinking of this, he looked up at the old Taoist priest and said with difficulty: "Master, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, his body swelled up as if he had been blown out of air, gradually getting bigger and bigger, as if he was about to burst the barrel.

At this time, Li Xiuyuan was in so much pain that he could not speak, and the old Taoist priest even frowned.

A small face is swollen and round, and gradually has a tendency to explode.

The old Taoist priest looked at his painful appearance and couldn't help but sigh softly. He walked over and put his hand on his back, and a soft infuriating energy flowed straight into his veins.

Li Xiuyuan, who was already on the verge of collapse, couldn't help shouting, and saw a stream of blue Qi spurting out of his mouth.

The moment this Qi spurted out, the swelling on his face and the swelling in his body finally stopped. As the old Taoist's Qi entered, he felt the torrent of Qi flowing into his bones and flesh.

Drilled in.

With the help of the old Taoist priest, the true energy that was about to break through was finally integrated into his flesh and blood.

This situation lasted for a while, and Li Xiuyuan, who was gritting his teeth, finally returned to his previous appearance. Only then did he sigh softly.

"Fortunately, Master is here, otherwise the disciple would have exploded long ago."

Holding back the immense pain in his body, Li Xiuyuan looked at the old Taoist priest and said feebly.

The old Taoist priest didn't wait for him to continue, his eyes narrowed slightly and he said: "There are thousands of ways to practice. My teacher hopes that you can practice the physical body and the immortal method together."

Li Xiuyuan was slightly startled and asked: "The physical body? How do you say... Master, please help me clarify my doubts."

The old Taoist priest raised his eyes to look at the sky above the mountains and said calmly: "Since you carry the Buddha's bones and blood, you should cultivate your physical body into a formless golden body. In worldly terms, this is the body of Nirvana."

"Master, what kind of body do you have? Is it a Taoist body?" Li Xiuyuan looked at the old Taoist priest and asked stupidly, because the old people around him ascended and left one by one, and no one taught him more principles.

The old Taoist priest sighed, stretched out his finger and a golden light entered his mind.

The old Taoist priest looked at him and smiled and said: "Whether it is the golden body of Buddhism or the legendary immortal body, those are too far away from you. Maybe you will take a different path of practice."

Seeing Li Xiuyuan's dumbfounded look, the old Taoist priest continued: "I taught you the formless golden body of Buddhism. You are already in the first level of the formless golden body in the Asura Heaven."

"Don't think about Taoist matters, cultivate this Buddhist physical body to perfection first!"
