#127 - "Taiyuan Zhenshui Jing"!
After all, this Daoist's tone wasn't ordinary. He spoke of spiritual bodies and Dao bodies, and seemed to look down on his current physique.
Gu Yuan had only felt such extraordinary bearing on Qin Hongxiu.
"This humble Daoist is Xuanyuan Daoist."
The mysterious Daoist heard this and retracted his gaze. He seemed to see Gu Yuan's confusion and wariness, and directly said, opening the door:
"Boy, don't worry, I have no malice towards you, and even have a great benefit for you."
"I wonder what benefit Senior Xuanyuan is talking about?"
Gu Yuan cupped his hands and cautiously asked.
"A Daoist scripture suitable for your cultivation."
Xuanyuan Daoist didn't beat around the bush, and simply explained:
"I won't hide it from you, this humble Daoist has been dead for many years. What you see is just a wisp of my remnant soul. As for the two purple and cyan jade gourds you obtained today, they are the place where my divine soul is entrusted. Only when the two are combined can I be awakened."
"The reason you were able to cause the jade gourd to react abnormally is because of your talent!"
"My talent?"
Gu Yuan's face was blank, but his heart stirred.
This Xuanyuan Daoist thought he had just obtained the jade gourd, but he didn't seem to know that he had obtained the jade gourd a long time ago.
"That's right."
Xuanyuan Daoist stood with his hands behind his back.
Just standing there simply, he had an air of calmness and composure.
"This purple and cyan jade gourd is a special treasure. I have used a special divine power to sense some special talents and physiques. Of course, in addition to physique, there are also age and cultivation restrictions."
"As long as you meet the requirements, you can awaken me."
As he said that, he looked at Gu Yuan:
"The reason why this humble Daoist did this is because my master's Dao lineage is on the verge of being cut off, so I plan to find a disciple for my master to continue the lineage."
"Of course, there are other reasons, but it is inconvenient to tell you, because even if you only know some things, it will bring you disaster."
Finding a disciple to continue the lineage?
This is a good thing!
What was I painstakingly planning to enter Medicine King Mountain for? Wasn't it just for the true method of entering the Dao and cultivating Daoist scriptures?
Now, a Daoist scripture inheritance has automatically come to my door. What's that saying... This is simply finding something without even searching for it!
Gu Yuan was first surprised, then overjoyed, feeling as if he had been hit by a pie falling from the sky.
However, even with the surprise, Gu Yuan was not overwhelmed by the sudden good fortune.
He cautiously cupped his hands and asked: "May I ask, Daoist Xuanyuan, what sect does your master belong to?"
If it was a great immortal sect, that would be fine, but if it was a demonic sect, it would be different.
It wasn't that Gu Yuan looked down on the demonic path, or thought that the demonic path was the villainous camp in the cultivation world, full of evil people.
But he was afraid that the sect to which this Xuanyuan Daoist belonged was a demonic path, and was destroyed for some reason. If he joined it, and it brought him great trouble, he would be seeking his own death.
Xuanyuan Daoist seemed to see Gu Yuan's thoughts, and only glanced at him faintly, then said:
"My master's sect belongs to the immortal path. As for which sect it is, it's better for you not to know."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand and a ray of golden light lit up on his fingertip, golden and dazzling, like pure gold, and pointed it at Gu Yuan's brow.
Rumble!
Gu Yuan subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but was eventually pointed at his brow.
Then, he felt a golden light rush into his sea of consciousness domineeringly and directly.
The golden light unfolded and turned into a roll of silk, with densely written silver cloud scripts.
Although Gu Yuan didn't recognize these strange cloud scripts, he naturally understood some of their meanings just by looking at them.
《Taiyuan True Water Scripture》!
A top-grade earth-rank Daoist scripture, a true method for laying the foundation for entering the Dao with water, reaching the realm of the Sacred Golden Core…
Gu Yuan opened his eyes, his eyes full of shock.
Top-grade earth-rank Daoist scripture!
Offering a top-grade earth-rank Daoist scripture right away, what a generous gesture!
But this is too generous.
A water-attribute Daoist scripture of this level, even Medicine King Mountain may not have it, right?
Moreover, this is only the true method for laying the foundation for entering the Dao. Presumably, the subsequent Daoist scriptures will definitely be of higher grade!
Just as Gu Yuan was surprised, he heard Xuanyuan Daoist say:
"This Daoist scripture is the basic orthodox method of my sect. It is a water-attribute Daoist scripture, which is just right for your talent."
"Boy, I won't hide it from you. If you can form a top-grade golden core, I will naturally pass on to you the Daoist scriptures for the subsequent stages of Yin God Spiritual Appearance, Yang God Dragon Gate, and Nascent Soul True Immortal."
"Forming a top-grade golden core?"
Gu Yuan was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised.
After the Heaven-Human Realm, it is the Entering Sacred Realm, also known as the Golden Core Realm. One can forge a golden core, fusing the three treasures of essence, qi, and spirit into one, locking life in the golden core, giving birth to a bit of immortal nature, and extending life by eight hundred to a thousand years.
However, this refers to forming a top-grade golden core.
The Golden Core Realm has nine grades.
Nine grades are the lowest, and one grade is the highest!
The lower three grades of golden cores carry the fewest divine powers, have the lowest achievements, and the shortest lifespan, often only living for four or five hundred years, but they are already immortal figures in the eyes of ordinary people.
Most of the Entering Sacred cultivators who form lower-grade golden cores in the cultivation world belong to loose cultivators and heretical sects, and many also come from great immortal sects.
Although the achievements are low, among twenty or thirty Heaven-Human Realm cultivators, there may not necessarily be such a golden core cultivator. In general, they can be considered ancestors of one side, able to live a carefree life.
The middle three grades of golden cores have at least cultivated a superior divine power, possessing great magic power, and can live for five hundred to eight hundred years.
Reaching such an achievement is already quite extraordinary, and can be called a True Person. However, wanting to achieve longevity is a misty opportunity, unless one obtains some incredible heaven-defying spiritual pills and immortal herbs.
As for the upper three grades of golden cores, one must at least cultivate a top-notch divine power. Those who can achieve this are all those with superior opportunities, comprehension, and talent.
Generally speaking, only cultivation sects and families with abundant resources and inheritance are likely to cultivate them.
Those who can achieve this will obtain a chance for a line of longevity!
Xuanyuan Daoist's opening statement was to let Gu Yuan form a top-grade golden core, which was obviously a test of his ability and potential.
In fact, in Gu Yuan's view, it was only natural for Xuanyuan Daoist to test him.
People are looking for inheritors, of course, they have to find a disciple with high potential and good qualifications!
However, only by forging a golden core, and forming a top-grade golden core, can one obtain the subsequent inheritance… Xuanyuan Daoist's requirements are really not low.
"In fact, forming a top-grade golden core may not be enough."
Xuanyuan Daoist continued to say:
"If you form a third-grade golden core, this humble Daoist will pass on to you a volume of Daoist scriptures, but from then on, you will have no chance with my sect's inheritance."
"Only if you form a second-grade golden core, or even a first-grade golden core, will this humble Daoist accept you as a disciple."
Good fellow, one must form a first or second-grade golden core to be accepted as a disciple, and even a third-grade is not enough. These requirements are too high.
What is the origin of this person?
Gu Yuan was amazed when he heard this.
