Uncle Jiu's Senior Brother

Chapter 105 The Secret of Aura

Lu Li became curious again.

"Master, is there any explanation for this spiritual energy?"

Qin Zhenren stroked his gray beard and said, "I didn't notice it at first, but after reading the contents of the jade talisman, I knew the secret.

After Zhuanxu severed the connection between heaven and earth, the spiritual energy of the Shenzhou continent would be completely drained away by the heavens within a hundred years. Later, Zhuanxu used ten wizards to transform into ancestral dragon veins to suppress heaven and earth in order to prevent the large-scale leakage of spiritual energy.

However, the spiritual energy was still being lost. Based on the loss rate at that time, it could probably last for about ten thousand years.

But it has only been four or five thousand years, and the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is about to be exhausted.

I suspect someone is stealing the spiritual energy of my Shenzhou Dragon Vein branch."

"Spiritual energy can be stolen?"

Lu Li showed a look of disbelief.

Master Qin showed disdain on his face: "Why not? Just use formations or magic weapons to drain the dragon veins clean. Although it loses the ability to protect the mountains and rivers, it can still be transformed into the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

"But this is an act against heaven, and the person who carries it out will be in trouble."

Uncle Jiu sighed upon hearing this, "Compared to cultivation, everything else is secondary. In this era, fewer and fewer people are willing to practice diligently, and more and more people want to take shortcuts. What would they not dare to do in order to improve their cultivation?"

There are more and more unorthodox sects, and even the orthodox sects feel unprecedented pressure.

Moreover, with the progress of the times and the increase in the power of firearms, many monks have lost their transcendent status.

Many people become dissatisfied and go astray because of this.

"Then will Master's Ancestral Dragon Vein also be secretly attacked by someone?"

The Ancestral Dragon Vein is the foundation of China and must not be destroyed by villains.

Master Qin narrowed his eyes and snorted.

"The Ancestral Dragon Vein has the duty to suppress the mountains and rivers. Maybe someone is plotting against it, but it must not succeed now. Otherwise, the mountains and rivers will be in turmoil, and the people will be displaced by famines. According to the number of Ancestral Dragon Veins at the time, a powerful dynasty will rise in China, and the people will eventually live and work in peace and contentment."

Lu Li only felt a buzzing in his head.

He was a person from later generations, so he naturally knew whether the people of later generations lived and worked in peace and contentment.

That touch of red has been deeply imprinted in his bones and blood.

It was a truly peaceful and prosperous time there.

It was won by countless martyrs who sacrificed their lives in blood and fire.

"Xiao Li, Xiao Li, what's wrong with you?"

Uncle Jiu patted Lu Li’s shoulder.

"Master, I'm fine. I'm just a little angry when I think about how our things have been coveted by outsiders."

"Silly boy, why are you so angry? Just beat him so that he doesn't dare to think about it, hahaha!"

Master Qin laughed.

No wonder the people in Maoshan are all fighting maniacs, it seems the root of the problem lies here.

Lu Li felt a little heavy in his heart.

He knew that a catastrophe that would affect China was waiting in a dozen years.

At that time, the country was really in turmoil and it was difficult for people to find a place to settle down.

That scene made Lu Li's blood rush back, and a sense of hostility swirled in his chest.

Maybe they really succeeded at that time, but now that I am here, I will break bones and tendons of those jackals even if I have to risk my life.

"Xiao Jiu, let's follow your arrangement now. Xiao Li will be in charge of keeping an eye on those thieves. Once we find them, we will kill them all!"

"Yes, Master."

"Yes, Master."

The two of them then took their leave.

Master Qin stood at the entrance of the hall with his hands behind his back, watching the two people go away, muttering to himself:

"It's a troubled time again!"

Before the meeting, Master Qin had already calculated that a great catastrophe would befall Shenzhou in the future, and that all sects would be hard-pressed to escape.

The cause was the destruction of the ancestral dragon vein.

But this hexagram is vague.

It seems to exist and not exist, and it moves because of people.

So Master Qin is not sure now and can only try his best to avoid it.

"Master, I may have to go down the mountain in a while."

Lu Li and Uncle Jiu said on the way back to Ermao Peak.

"Master has guessed it. Master can't help you with anything now. You have to be careful about everything."

Since when did I become a drag?

It seems that the stability and prosperity of Renjia Town has really reduced my enterprising spirit.

"Haha, who dares to say that the famous One-Eyebrow Taoist can't help?"

Lu Li winked and smiled at Uncle Jiu.

"You are teasing your master, you little bastard. Wait and see how I deal with you."

Uncle Jiu was chasing Lu Li from behind, and laughter could be heard from time to time on the mountain path of Ermao Peak.

"Why hasn't Master come back yet?"

In the back hall of Wanning Palace, Wencai and the old foreigner Hua Ling were dozing off out of boredom.

"I don't know if Master and Senior Brother have eaten yet. Ermao Peak is too big. Where are we going to eat?"

The old foreigners were starving to the point of being extremely weak.

"What are you three doing?"

"Ah, Big Brother, you're back. We haven't eaten yet?"

As soon as they arrived, they were called away to discuss something, and they forgot to tell them that there was a kitchen behind Wanning Palace.

"Did you ask the Taoist boy who cleans Wanning Palace?"

Uncle Jiu covered his face and felt depressed.

"Ah, no, we are still curious about who these four are?"

Wencai told the truth, and the old foreigner Hua Ling blushed and dodged.

"What a fool!"

Sighing, Lu Li led them to the dining hall, behind which was the Ermao Peak’s kitchen.

"This kitchen is so big, several times bigger than the one in the charity cemetery."

"Shut up!"

Uncle Jiu really regretted bringing this guy here. Comparing him with the Yizhuang and the Taoist holy land, only Wencai could do this.

Lu Li was very quick and agile. In no time, several dishes were ready and he also cooked a soup.

Several people started eating at the big table in the kitchen.

"It still tastes the same. Xiaoli, your cooking skills haven't gotten rusty yet."

Uncle Jiu took a big sip of the soup with satisfaction. After rescuing Lu Li, Lu Li took the initiative to take on the responsibility of cooking when the two of them first arrived at the charity cemetery.

When Uncle Jiu first settled down, he was not picky about food, but after eating the food made by Lu Li, he felt that he had suffered a lot in the past, and since then he developed the habit of eating delicious food.

Later, after Lu Li accepted Wencai and taught him how to cook, he stopped caring about these things.

Uncle Jiu's stomach suffered for some time.

After eating and drinking their fill, they breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction.

"What did the Master ask you to do? Why is it taking so long?"

"Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about."

He glared at Wencai, the lazy disciple, and asked, "Can I tell you these things?"

“Master, you must pay attention to the teachings of my three junior brothers and sisters in the future. This is not Renjia Town where we can live alone.

There are hundreds of disciples on the mountain, and Ermao Peak is now attracting much attention. If we don’t teach them well, we will be laughed at.”

Lu Li felt that Uncle Jiu could no longer continue to teach in a laissez-faire manner, as Ermao Peak now had a Jindan Zhenren and an elder in the late foundation-building stage.

Isn't it shameful to teach disciples in a confused manner?

Uncle Jiu is a very face-conscious person. He was shocked at the thought of being laughed at by the other elders, especially the gossipy Mama.

My face turned red with anger. Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"You three will come to Wanning Palace Square later. I will be watching you personally. Wencai, if you can't reach the Qi training stage within half a year, you will be responsible for cleaning the entire Ermao Peak by yourself."

"No!"

Wencai had a bitter face, like an abandoned young wife.

"Hua Ling and the old foreigner, you should intensify your practice of hand and foot skills and strive to get the mastery as soon as possible."

"Yes, Master!"

The two had experienced hardships and knew how rare the current opportunity was, so they never slacked off in their practice.

The autumn wind at night is particularly refreshing.

Lu Li stood on the stone platform at the top of Ermao Peak, looking at the dimly glowing lights on other peaks.

Enjoy the unique tranquility.

I will be going down the mountain tomorrow, and it will probably take at least another year.

But there are some things you have to do yourself, and some truths you have to find yourself.
