Who Told Him To Cultivate Immortality! Chapter 1

  Chapter 1 Today is a good time to travel, not to cheat

   It is advisable to travel on the second day of the second lunar month.

  The rain was falling in a clatter, falling to the ground, splashing the fragrance of the soil, falling to the lake, making ripples, and falling on the heads of passers-by, causing whispered curses.

   "Whoever said that today is a good time to go out, it will rain when you go out." Lu Yang complained, a little regretful that he didn't bring the coir raincoat in advance.

  It was his first time to travel far, and he had no experience. The rain suddenly fell, and he was soaked, his shoes were muddy, and he felt the malice of the ground facing him when he walked—he needed to pull his feet out of the mud puddles.

   A rattling sound came from behind, which caught Lu Yang's attention.

   Lu Yang turned his head to look, and found that a carriage was approaching him. There was no groom on the carriage. The old horse seemed to know the way, and no one was needed to drive it.

   "What a miraculous horse." Lu Yang admired, the old horse has several scales on its forehead, like snake scales, obviously it is some kind of strange monster.

  Although he didn't understand the value, he also knew the preciousness of this old horse.

   At least he couldn't afford it with his financial resources.

   "This brother is really enjoying walking in the rain, why don't you come and sit in the car?"

  The man's hearty laughter came from inside the carriage, Lu Yang accepted the man's kindness, pulled his foot out of the mud puddle, and hurried into the carriage.

   "Excuse me, I'm going to Lu Yang." Lu Yang carefully got into the carriage, fearing that the rain and mud on his body would stain the carriage.

   "Meng Jingzhou." The owner of the carriage was like his voice, a carefree young man, optimistic and hearty, as if he could talk to anyone.

   "Brother Lu also came to participate in the selection of Wendaozong?"

   "It's just a matter of luck."

  Meng Jingzhou laughed loudly: "Brother Lu, it doesn't matter if you are honest. If you really just want to try your luck, you won't be walking in the rain to Wendaozong."

  Lu Yang was a little ashamed: "Who doesn't want to enter Daoist sect."

   Wendao Sect is one of the five great immortal sects in the Central Continent. It has countless immortal cultivating abilities and is extremely powerful. Today Wendao Sect is recruiting disciples. I don't know how many people want to try it.

  Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou are two of them.

  Lu Yang traveled to the Central Continent. His parents died early, and he survived only by relying on the little inheritance left by his parents and the relief from his neighbors.

During the more than ten years of living in the small town, he heard from Mr. Shu that there was a fairy sword knocking on the gate of heaven. I have seen sloppy Taoist priests being deceived, soaring into the sky, escaping from prison in public, and being captured by the officials who rose from the sky.

  At that time, he knew that this was not the world he was familiar with, nor was it any dynasty he was familiar with.

  He wanted to ask the immortals to learn the immortality method.

   Dao Dao Sect was the first stop he chose.

   There is no other reason for choosing Wendaozong, it is simply that there are no other sects around his house, only Wendaozong's family.

   Daoist sect is here, other sects will not make fun of themselves, and choose to establish a sect nearby.

  During the conversation, Lu Yang learned that Meng Jingzhou came from a family of cultivators, and he had far more knowledge about cultivating immortals than Lu Yang.

   "The requirement for recruiting disciples of Wendaozong is mortals under the age of sixteen, not only Wendaozong, most sects have such requirements."

"The journey of cultivating immortality is long and obstructive. Qi training, foundation building, golden elixir, nascent soul, transformation of gods, emptiness refining, body fusion, and crossing the catastrophe. Each realm is a watershed. I don't know how many people are stuck. Ten into one, two One in ten, or even one in a hundred."

   "There are many factors that determine the achievement of cultivating immortals, such as luck, wisdom, spiritual root...By the way, Brother Lu, do you know what spiritual root you are?"

   "Although Daoist sect doesn't have high requirements for spiritual roots, they don't want spiritual roots that are too poor."

  Lu Yang frowned. He still knew the word "spiritual root" from the storyteller, and he didn't know what kind of spiritual root he was.

   "I don't know, how about you, Brother Meng?"

Meng Jingzhou's expression became very confused, and he also shook his head: "I have tested the spiritual root in the clan, but the elders of the clan were sad and did not tell me the result, but said that my talent is astonishing, and it is impossible to worship the five great immortals." The problem, I will know when I worship at the Five Great Immortals in the future, I secretly asked my parents, they are more worried than the clan elders, and they also don't tell me.”

  Lu Yang speculated: "It may be that your spiritual root is too shocking, and it is easy to bring disaster to the Meng family. Only a behemoth like Daoist sect can keep you."

   "It's the same as I guessed." Meng Jingzhou patted Lu Yang's shoulder, as if meeting a confidant, the more he looked at Lu Yang, the more he felt that this person was as talented as himself, a natural seed of cultivation.

  Lu Yang listened to the increasing sound of rain outside, and was glad that Meng Jingzhou let him get into the car.

   "Stop." Meng Jingzhou suddenly yelled, and the old horse took a few steps and then stopped slowly.

  The carriage is considered a rare treasure, Meng Jingzhou can see the situation outside the carriage.

  Meng Jingzhou saw a woman walking in the rain outside the carriage, just like Lu Yang just now.

   "This sister is walking in this direction, and she must also be going to Dao Dao Zong to take part in the test. It's raining so hard, why don't you come and rest in the car?"

  The woman was a little surprised by Meng Jingzhou's proposal, after thinking about it, she agreed.

  As soon as the woman got into the car, Meng Jingzhou and Lu Yang were both stunned.

  Meng Jingzhou admits that he has seen the world, but he has never seen such a beautiful woman, let alone Lu Yang. The most beautiful woman he has ever seen is the little widow who sells tofu next door.

  Of course, Lu Yang is a gentleman, and he doesn't have any wrong thoughts about the little widow.

  A woman is like a lotus flower that is seductive but not beautiful. She is dressed in white, slim and graceful, with bright eyes and white teeth, giving people a feeling of being in another world.

  The woman also wears a string of golden bells on her right wrist.

   "Yunzhi thanked you both."

  The woman's voice is like a clear spring, which is very comfortable to listen to.

  Lu Yang noticed something strange, and said in a low voice: "Brother Meng, why did she do something wrong? Could it be a monster?"

   In storytelling stories, there are often monsters who turn into beauties to lure young and strong boys like them.

  Just now Lu Yang was poured like a drowned rat, in a mess, but Yunzhi, on the other hand, didn't have any rain on her body, she didn't look like she was walking in the rain at all.

  Meng Jingzhou didn't think much about it: "Maybe it's because he has a treasure that can shelter him from the rain, which is common in aristocratic families."

  Meng Jingzhou is not worried that Yunzhi is a monster, a ghost, a monster, and a sprite. This is the territory of Dao Dao Zong. Which monster will die and dare to come to Dao Dao Zong to make trouble.

   "Miss Yunzhi came to participate in the Daoist test?"

   "Exactly."

  Meng Jingzhou said courteously: "I happen to have the test content of Wendaozong here, and I bought it from the elder of Wendaozong for a lot of money. Do you want to listen to Miss Yunzhi?"

  Lu Yang looked at Meng Jingzhou in surprise, why didn't you tell me?

  Yunzhi was even more surprised than Lu Yang: "This is cheating, in case Wendaozong finds out..."

  Meng Jingzhou waved his hand with a confident face: "My carriage is a rare treasure. Even those old monsters who are capable of cultivating immortals and living in seclusion cannot detect this place with their spiritual sense."

   "So that's the case, please tell Mr. Meng the content of the test."

  When Lu Yang heard the words, he also pricked up his ears to listen.

Meng Jingzhou cleared his throat: "The Daoist test is divided into three levels. The first level tests the spiritual root. This is a rigid test. There is no possibility of tricks and shortcuts. The second and third levels are the ones with room for manipulation. "

"The second level is a test of character. If a carriage runs out of control and crashes into five people lying on the side of the road, it will surely kill them. There is another person lying not far away. As outsiders, we can control the direction in which the carriage goes out of control. Choose to ignore it and kill five people, or change direction and kill another person?"

  Lu Yang said without hesitation, "Killed another person."

  Meng Jingzhou was very surprised. Ever since he learned the content of the second level, he hadn't thought of a solution. How could Lu Yang make a decision immediately?

  If you choose to ignore it, you will have to watch five people being killed.

  Choose to change direction and hit another person to death, then this person is so unlucky, he deserves to be killed, and he did it himself.

Meng Jingzhou asked his question, and Lu Yang explained: "How can you have so much time to think, when you think about the result, those five people will have been killed long ago. I guess Daozong's test is not that you choose to save five people. Individual or individual, it's about whether you can make a quick decision."

   "I heard Mr. Shu say that a slight difference in a monk's fighting skills is life and death. What is the character of the second test? It depends on whether you are indecisive or decisive. The shortest time to make a decision is the most important."

  Meng Jingzhou suddenly realized.

   "The third test is honesty. Dao Dao Zong has a mirror that can judge whether you are telling the truth or lying. If you are found to be lying, you will be kicked out of the test."

   Lu Yang thought about it and said: "This level is quite simple. If there is no warning in advance, it is easy to tell lies to cover yourself up, but since you know in advance, just tell the truth."

  Meng Jingzhou nodded, he thought so too.

  The two discussed for a while, and proposed many possible accidents and countermeasures, and they thought it was seamless.

  Miss Yunzhi showed a slight smile, she seemed to think that what the two said was a good idea.

   "Thank you, Shaoxia Lu, for letting me know."

   "Well, the rain has stopped?" Lu Yang noticed that there was no sound of dripping rain coming from outside the car, so he couldn't help looking outside curiously.

  The place where they just walked was still pouring rain, but the place where they were was sunny and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant. It was as if there was a peerless sword energy dividing the world into two halves, yin and yang, never intersecting.

  Lu Yang raised his head, and saw countless rare beasts and fairy treasures rushing towards the majestic mountain that reached directly into the sky.

  The majestic mountains are coated with a layer of light gold by the sun, and magnificent patterns spread out from behind the mountains, covering the sky and covering the earth, blocking the heavy rain.

   That is the gateway mountain of Wendaozong, and above it is the Great Formation of Protecting the Sect, which no one can break through.

   Out of respect for Dao Dao Zong, the Taoist genius, led by his elders, landed at the foot of the mountain, waiting for Dao Dao Zong to start the test.

  The old horse is already quite a rare alien monster, but it is still a little worse than those resting magical beasts at the foot of the mountain.

   "Mom, this is much more domineering than our Meng family's mansion." Meng Jingzhou rubbed his hands, a little nervous, thinking that he would soon pass the test and become a member of Dao Dao Sect, he was more excited.

   Lu Yang didn't say anything, he could see this mountain when he was at home, but it was too far away at that time, so he didn't feel much. Standing at the foot of the mountain, he realized how huge it was.

  He was a little nervous, he could solve the second or third test, but he still doesn't know what his spiritual root is, maybe he can't even pass the first test.

  Dozens of monks stood in the air, guarding in front of the mountain, all exuding powerful aura fluctuations. Lu Yang suspected that if they let go of their aura completely, few of them would even be able to stand.

  These monks kept silent, giving people psychological pressure for no reason.

  Lu Yang heard an elder of the family introduce to the younger generation: "Look at the Taoist robe system, these are the core disciples of Wendao Sect, all of whom are apprentices under the sect of the elders, and these people will be your brothers in the future."

   "Don't be nervous. They didn't mean to put pressure on you. It seems that they are waiting for the person who will host this test. When the host arrives, the test should begin."

  Lu Yang turned his head, wanting to see Miss Yunzhi's reaction, whether she was excited or nervous.

   You can't just keep a calm face, can you?

   "Miss Yunzhi, you..."

  Lu Yang just wanted to say something when she saw Miss Yunzhi taking light steps, and before each step fell, a white lotus would support her frail body.

  Everyone was in an uproar, cold sweat broke out on the forehead of the elders of the family, and quickly silenced the younger generation.

The white lotus paved the way across the crowd. Miss Yunzhi came to the core disciples of Wendao Sect. The disciples of Wendao Sect bowed to her to show their respect. Miss Yunzhi raised her bare hand and then faced the crowd, pursing her lips and smiling .

   "Keep everyone waiting for a long time, I am Senior Sister Wendao Zong, the host of this test."

   "I declare that the test has officially begun."

   After finishing speaking, Miss Yunzhi still glanced at the dull Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou with a half-smile.

  She did come to take the Taoist test, but she is not an examinee, but an examiner.
