A Li horse stood on the ground, its tall body towering into the sky.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Li Zhige's eyes were full of gratitude.
Originally, Li Zhige could fly up to the top of the mountain first, but out of respect for the old woman from Lishan, Li Zhige decided to walk up like a mortal.
Glancing at the new disciple beside him, Li Zhige greeted, "Let's go."
The girl Caihong nodded, her bright eyes curiously looking at Western Zhou and the fairy mountain where the legendary immortal lived.
In the immortal world, immortals and gods often appear, but not everyone has the opportunity to meet immortals and gods.
In her short life, the girl had only seen the true immortal Li Zhige and the Bodhisattva sitting high in the sky, so she was naturally curious about the other immortals.
The bluestone stairs are as new as washed by water, extending from the foot of the mountain to the clouds.
As soon as Li Zhige raised his feet, the girl Caihong pointed to the white clouds landing in front of her and exclaimed, "Master, an immortal is coming down from the mountain."
Ahead, there are white clouds falling.
Above the white clouds, stood a girl with a frail face and slender body. The girl had a long sword hanging on her waist and was wearing a snow-white dress. Her face was full of surprise and she pressed her head towards the place where Li Zhige was.
Li Zhige looked at the girl, with a soft smile in his eyes.
More than two hundred years ago, the girl was still a white snake that had just transformed into a white snake, with only a hundred years of humble life. More than two hundred years have passed, and the girl has made great progress in her cultivation and is about to reach the threshold of immortality.
In the Ninth Level of the Immortal Road, before ascending to immortality, monks are generally divided into the western realms, which are refining essence to transform into qi, refining qi to transform into spirit, refining spirit to return to void, and refining void to combine with Tao.
Only monks who practice emptiness and practice the Tao are qualified to shed their mortal bodies and become immortals.
Over the past two hundred years, Bai Suzhen has made great progress and is almost on the verge of becoming a fairy. It seems that Old Mother Lishan treats her well.
You must know that in the original destiny trajectory, Bai Suzhen was lucky enough to enter Lishan Mountain and become the registered disciple of Lishan Mother. After practicing for a full 1,800 years, she still failed to achieve immortality.
For more than two hundred years, Mother Lishan should have taken care of Bai Suzhen, otherwise Bai Suzhen's cultivation would not have grown so rapidly.
Ordinary monks and monsters may not have a chance after thousands of years of hard training in order to become immortals. Bai Suzhen, who was originally on the path of destiny, is the best example.
Sun Wukong, Yang Jian and others are special examples.
Li Zhige was able to cultivate into a true immortal across three realms in more than two hundred years. In addition to his own innate understanding, what is more important is the fundamental method of the Qingmu Taoist Scripture taught by Zhenyuan Immortal, and the Taoist Biyou of Shangqing Sage. palace.
Not everyone can practice the Aoki Tao Sutra and other fundamental methods that lead to the great road like Li Zhige, and not everyone has the opportunity to enter the saint's dojo to practice.
Whether it is Fangcun Mountain, Xianyue Sanxing Cave, or Biyou Palace, this kind of opportunity to practice in a saint's dojo is so rare that even a casual cultivator monster without a background can only dream of it.
The white clouds dispersed, and the girl stood in front of Li Zhige. There was water in her eyes, and she looked at the figure in front of her. Thousands of words came to her lips, and finally turned into one sentence, "Great Immortal, you finally come to see Xiaobai." ”
For more than two hundred years, for countless days and nights, this figure in a green shirt would appear in his mind from time to time. Today, Bai Suzhen finally saw this figure again.
More than two hundred years have passed, and Bai Suzhen is no longer the ignorant little demon she was at first. During the two hundred years or so that she studied under Old Mother Lishan, she has read many books and gone down the mountain several times. She has learned a lot, including The love, hatred and hatred of ordinary people in the world.
Li Zhige habitually stretched out his hand to rub the girl's jet-black hair and chuckled, "Xiao Bai, you have made great progress in the past two hundred years."
Bai Suzhen's eyes were filled with tears, and she shook her head with a smile, "I would rather that I have not made any progress in these two hundred years, and I also hope that the immortal will take Xiaobai with him when he leaves that day."
Li Zhige's expression froze.
Over the past two hundred years, the world has changed, and even the timid and cowardly Little White Snake has changed and become bolder.
Caihong looked at Bai Suzhen curiously. She was curious about the relationship between Bai Suzhen and her master, and couldn't help but ask, "This fairy sister, are you also a disciple of the master?"
Bai Suzhen turned her head and glanced at the thin and shriveled Rainbow, with a bit of envy in her eyes. With a gentle smile on her face, she said softly, "I am not a god, I am just the little white snake who accompanied the great immortal in the past."
Rainbow opened her mouth, a little surprised.
The smart Rainbow immediately understood that the beautiful sister in front of her was not a fairy, but a monster, a snake demon.
In Caihong's imagination, monsters all have big mouths, ugly and ferocious faces, but Bai Suzhen in front of her has subverted her understanding of monsters.
Li Zhige shook his head and walked towards the top of the mountain.
Seeing Li Zhige walking towards the top of the mountain along the bluestone stairs, Bai Suzhen hurriedly caught up, fearing that he was half a step behind.
Caihong struggled to follow Li Zhige and Bai Suzhen. It was obviously difficult for the girl who had just embarked on the path of spiritual practice to keep up with Li Zhige and Bai Suzhen.
"Great Immortal, where have you been these years?"
On the bluestone steps to the top of Lishan Mountain, Bai Suzhen followed Li Zhige. Her eyes were shining and she asked Li Zhige about his experience in the past two hundred years.
"I went to a very far place."
Li Zhige shook his head. He had not experienced much in the past two hundred years. He had been in seclusion in Biyou Palace for more than two hundred years. The passage of time made Li Zhige not feel much.
Bai Suzhen seemed to have remembered something, and said with a worried look, "Great Immortal, not long after you left Lishan, Guanyin Bodhisattva came to Lishan with the Sandalwood Merit Buddha and the Fighting Victory Buddha. They even forced the master to reveal your whereabouts. . But fortunately, Master used the Qingping Sword and almost killed Guanyin Bodhisattva and others. In the end, Tathagata Buddha saved Guanyin Bodhisattva and others."
"Great Immortal, you must be careful when you come back this time. I have hated you since I watched the battle and defeated the Buddha. He will definitely come to look for the Great Immortal again."
Back then, when Li Zhige went to Huaguo Mountain, the ignorant Bai Suzhen followed Li Zhige. She was very clear about the enmity between Li Zhige and Sun Wukong, and she couldn't help but worry that Sun Wukong, the victorious Buddha, would come again to find him. Li Zhige.
"Guanyin Bodhisattva! Fight to defeat the Buddha!"
Li Zhige's eyes turned cold. He didn't expect that Guanyin would dare to lead Sun Wukong up Lishan Mountain!
Behind Li Zhige, Rainbow, whose hair was wet with sweat from the extremely difficult climb, was keenly aware of the change in the atmosphere. Her eyes flickered and she asked Bai Suzhen, "Sister Bai, I know Guanyin Bodhisattva, but who is the Victory Buddha?" "
"Does Victory Buddha have any grudge against Master?"
Bai Suzhen did not answer Rainbow, but turned her attention to Li Zhige.
Seeing that Li Zhige didn't respond, Bai Suzhen explained patiently, "The fighting Buddha is Monkey King, the Monkey King who caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace seven hundred years ago. He was one of the seven great sages of the demon clan. He was later killed by the Tathagata Buddha because of the havoc in the Heavenly Palace. He was suppressed at the foot of Wuzhi Mountain, and was enlightened by Guanyin Bodhisattva to escort the pilgrims to the West to retrieve scriptures. "
"After obtaining the scripture, Sun Wukong was granted the title of Fighting Victory Buddha..."
Bai Suzhen patiently told Cai Cai about the past events about the fight against the Buddha. Li Zhige felt a little irritated and said with a calm expression, "The Great Sage Qitian and the fight against the Buddha are just a monkey that cannot be taught."
Bai Suzhen and Caihong looked at each other, and the two women shut up obediently, not daring to mention anything about Sun Wukong again.
