Nine Stars Killer Novel - Chapter 1279
Chapter 1279 Zhang Sanfeng
Mu Bai was right. Perhaps the answer was in this thatched cottage.
He carefully walked in front of the thatched cottage and looked at the two doors that were blown by the wind and frost. He gently pushed them open and a dusty aura rushed towards his face.
After realizing that there was no danger, Ye Feng walked in. The thatched cottage was not very big, it was only the size of a normal room. When Ye Feng entered, the scene inside could be clearly seen.
“Junior Ye Feng, greet senior!”
After entering the thatched cottage, Ye Feng immediately saluted. In the middle of the thatched cottage sat an old man. He looked at the old man carefully and even had a smile on his face. His rosy face told Ye Feng that the old man’s vitality was definitely not extinct.
However, Ye Feng’s voice was still blown away by the cold wind. The old man sitting on the prayer mat did not answer his words and sat quietly on the spot.
The thatched cottage was very simple and crude. Apart from a praying mat, there was almost nothing else to be found. The thatched cottage could only be regarded as a shelter from the wind and rain, and could not be of any use.
After waiting for a long time, the old man did not say anything. Ye Feng carefully walked over and checked with his divine sense. He found that the old man’s vitality was cut off and he did not breathe at all.
In the old man’s hand, he held a bamboo slip. Ye Feng was quickly attracted by the bamboo slip.
In Shenwu Continent, most of the records were jade slips and animal hides. This bamboo slip was basically invisible. Only in ancient times on Earth would bamboo slips be used to record some things.
He carefully took down the bamboo slip. Ye Feng sat quietly beside the old man and opened the jade slip. Rows of brats appeared inside. Furthermore, it was an authentic seal from ancient times.
Looking at the font on it, Ye Feng had changed from shock to confusion, and his expression was constantly changing.
“I am Zhang Sanfeng, Xuanzi, the founding ancestor of the Wudang Sect. I founded a Taoist sect and have learned three books and five scriptures since I was young. I have been practicing martial arts since I was young …”
Looking at the text, it was basically self-narration. Ye Feng was basically clear about a lot of information. Zhang Sanfeng came from the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasties and later founded the Wudang Sect. It was extremely popular for a while. Even the emperor of that time personally ascended the Wudang Mountain and asked the Immortal Seeking Realm.
It was rumored that Zhang Sanfeng knew the path of immortal cultivation. When he was a hundred years old, he did not eat the fireworks in the world and became a legend. From then on, Taoism also took root in the hearts of the people. From then on, it spread throughout the Yellow River and became a new school.
In the following years, the Wudang Sect grew more and more prosperous, and Zhang Sanfeng rarely appeared. Until he was 170 years old, a strange scene appeared in the Wudang Sect, and countless immortal clouds floated above the Wudang Mountain.
The appearance of this scene laid the foundation for Mount Wudang’s status, equaling the prestige of Shaolin at that time. Wudang Shaolin was also listed as Mount Tai Beidou.
Immortal Cloud was just a flash in the pan. It quickly disappeared, and was still recorded by many people. Three days later, news of Zhang Sanfeng’s immortal transformation spread. The first generation of Taoist primogenitor finally sat down and transformed.
However, no one knew about his remains. It was as if they had disappeared into this world. In the end, there was a popular saying that Ancestor Zhang Sanfeng had already become an immortal and become an immortal. Therefore, the Mortal Realm could no longer see him.
This made Wudang Mountain’s status to an unprecedented height. In the next few hundred years, incense flames would flourish and become the number one sect of Taoism. Afterwards, it would spread to all parts of the world.
Speaking of Taoism, most of them thought of inscribing talismans, such as avoiding evil spirits. They wore Taoist robes, held peach swords in their hands, and chanted incantations that they could not understand.
Saying this was only one of them. Taoism did not only know some talisman techniques, there were also many profound and unfathomable body nurturing techniques.
There was also his comprehension of the heavens and the earth, his perception of all things, and his absorption of the essence of the sun and moon, thus helping him achieve the goal of cultivating and nourishing his body.
This Tai Chi Duality was an extension of Taoism, but one could imagine how much Zhang Sanfeng had contributed to Taoism.
If it weren’t for Zhang Sanfeng, Wudang Mountain, and the prosperity of Taoism today.
Turning to the second page of the jade slip, Ye Feng continued to look back.
“After I sat down, I didn’t die. Instead, I was brought here by a mysterious force. It was the legendary Penglai Immortal Island. Unfortunately, after I entered, I was unable to comprehend it for hundreds of years. In the end, I died here. Unfortunately, I asked for my entire life, but I didn’t manage to penetrate the last barrier.”
Seeing the words behind, Zhang Sanfeng’s state of mind had obviously changed. However, before he sat down, he was very calm. He had probably comprehended the true essence of the Grand Dao at the last moment. Unfortunately, his lifespan had already expired.
Seeing this, Ye Feng felt a little regretful for Zhang Sanfeng. It was very difficult for mortals to ask how difficult it was to find immortals. No one knew better than him. Not to mention the Earth at that time, even if it was rich in spiritual energy at that time, Zhang Sanfeng was able to found Taoism without a perfect cultivation method. It was extremely heaven-defying.
If he appeared in Shenwu Continent, he would definitely be a prodigy of his generation.
Turning to the last page, Ye Feng continued to look down. When he saw the first line of text, the expression on his face suddenly froze.
“Everyone admires me, Zhang. Who knows that I, Zhang, am also a mortal? I only accidentally obtained a strange talisman and learned a lot from it. That’s why I founded Taoism and wrote a lot of mental techniques. I even came up with some simple talismans from this talisman that can exorcise evil and seek refuge.”
Ye Feng was shocked when the jade slip simply depicted the figure of this talisman. This was because the figure of this talisman was similar to the one in his soul sea, and there were only a few differences.
“When I came to Penglai Island, I found out that this talisman was definitely not a Yan Huang item. Instead, it came from another world. The reason why I was able to come to Penglai Immortal Island was probably because of the talisman. Unfortunately, after entering, I was unable to comprehend the profound meaning of the talisman. In the end, I died here.”
Closing the bamboo slip, Ye Feng basically understood. When Zhang Sanfeng was very young, he picked up a talisman. It was precisely because of this talisman that Zhang Sanfeng did something that mortals could not do. It changed his life and changed the fate of countless people.
Taking a deep breath, this amount of information was too large for Ye Feng to accept for a moment.
This involved too many things. Ye Feng even suspected that the universe was originally a family. It must have separated the earth for some reason, and this talisman had been left on the earth for a long time. In the end, it was obtained by Zhang Sanfeng.
If that was the case, would there be other planes in the entire universe? Or would there be many worlds similar to Earth? Or would it be that the entire universe was not a single star domain?
Since there were Hailan Domain, the Milky Way Star System, the Azure Star System, and definitely other star systems, it was just that Ye Feng hadn’t discovered them.
Of the three thousand worlds, Ye Feng only saw one world. Even Mu Bai said that apart from the four great god emperors, those low-level god emperors didn’t even know where the three thousand worlds were scattered.
After a full cup of tea, Ye Feng’s memory slowly recovered. Whether it was Earth or Shenwu Continent, one day, Ye Feng would figure it out.
“Senior, the dead are over. Your contributions to humanity during your lifetime are absolutely earth-shattering. After your death, you can’t be buried in peace. Since I’m here today, I can’t let your corpse explode outside. It’s the last thing I did for you on behalf of those devout disciples of Wudang.”
Ye Feng knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Sanfeng three times. Ye Feng definitely felt it coming from his heart.
It might be easy for a person to gain the admiration of one person, but gaining the admiration of tens of thousands of people was not simple. Moreover, it could be passed down for a thousand years, much less a mortal. However, Zhang Sanfeng did it, a generation of Taoist ancestors.
After digging a big hole outside the house, Ye Feng entered the thatched cottage and slowly picked up Zhang Sanfeng’s body. When he picked up Zhang Sanfeng, he saw that Zhang Sanfeng’s corpse was slowly weathering. However, in the blink of an eye, it had disappeared completely.
Ye Feng was directly stunned on the spot. Just now, he was about to live. Why did he move away from the spot and actually become weathered?
Soon, Ye Feng discovered the reason. Beneath Zhang Sanfeng’s prayer mat, there was a golden talisman. It was shining with golden light, almost identical to the talisman in his soul sea.
“Could it be that Zhang Sanfeng’s talisman made him immortal for a thousand years after his death?”
Ye Feng muttered to himself. If it was an Immortal cultivator, after thousands of years of death, it would be possible for the corpses to be preserved intact. However, Zhang Sanfeng was still a mortal after all. Although he had comprehended the Immortal Dao, there was still a great distance between him and the Immortal. He was still a mortal with the naked eye.
Without time to understand, Ye Feng reached out and picked up the golden talisman. Very quickly, the talisman that suppressed the blood essence of an immortal sensed it and flew out.
A strange scene appeared. Two talismans floated in front of Ye Feng, shuttling back and forth, emitting golden immortal marks. The golden light grew more and more brilliant, and it lasted for an entire incense stick of time before slowly stopping.
Something even more shocking happened to Ye Feng. The two golden talismans were actually fusing together, but in the blink of an eye, they turned into a talisman, and the area expanded by a lot.
Moreover, the lines on it were even clearer. Ye Feng had never seen any ancient lines before.
Unknowingly, Ye Feng felt that his Inscription Soul Technique had improved by a lot. His soul sea had become more rounded and more comfortable than before, and his soul power was getting richer and richer.
The talisman didn’t stop and directly flew upwards. A flash of light flew past, and a crack appeared in the void. Ye Feng actually saw the outside world.
“Let’s go. If we don’t leave now, I’m afraid we’ll stay here forever like Senior Zhang Sanfeng.”
Without any hesitation, Ye Feng flew into the crack under the lead of the golden talisman and quickly disappeared.
The crack disappeared and Penglai Immortal Island disappeared. Behind Ye Feng, a seven-colored halo appeared at the entrance of the Spirit Bamboo Martial Domain.
Looking at the world behind him, Ye Feng sighed, as if in a dream, somewhat unbelievable.
Ye Feng restrained his mind and looked towards the Spirit Bamboo Martial Domain. He discovered that the Spirit Bamboo Martial Domain was already closed. This confused Ye Feng.
I have only entered Penglai Immortal Island for a day. Logically speaking, the Spirit Bamboo Martial Domain has not been closed yet. What is going on?
Ye Feng was puzzled. He had no choice but to fly far away. After leaving this place, the golden talisman returned to Ye Feng’s soul sea. After the immortal’s blood essence was suppressed, it became much more obedient. The will inside was completely suppressed.
Three days later, Ye Feng arrived at Xuan Yao Star. This inquiry caused Ye Feng to be even more shocked. The Spirit Bamboo Martial Domain actually …
