He cleared his throat and continued to speak under Jiu Xuan's expectant face," The world we live in is called Xuan Tian. In Xuan Tian, there are six races: demon, immortal, god, devil, ghost, and human. Among these six races, immortals live above the nine heavens. The ghost race was born in the Nine Nether World, while the god race was ethereal and difficult to find. The demons settled in the Netherworld Blood Sea. Humans and demons lived in the eight states of the continent. Demons lived in the Barren State, while humans occupied seven states. Humans were divided into cultivators and mortals, while cultivators were divided into Dao cultivators and body cultivators. Dao cultivators were cultivators like me, who mainly cultivated divine powers and spells, while body cultivators mainly cultivated their own blood, Qi, and body. Most of the Dao cultivators and body cultivators had their own sects, but the schools of these two were extremely complicated and could not be clearly explained at the moment. I will slowly tell you in the future.”
Jiu Xuan said angrily," What are you laughing at? I'm not an eight or nine-year-old child. Master, why do you keep touching my hair? I won't grow tall like this, okay?"”At the end, Jiu Xuan put on a wronged look. Mr. Jiang waved his hand and said,"Alright, alright. Master was wrong. I won't touch your head in the future.”Jiu Xuan nodded with a satisfied expression and asked,""Master, you said that cultivators live in their own sects and immortal cities. Why have we never seen those immortal cities?”
Mr. Jiang subconsciously wanted to reach out to touch Jiu Xuan's head, but after seeing his murderous gaze, he could only retract his hand resentfully. He cleared his throat as if to cover up his embarrassment and said,"You've never heard of it, or even seen it before, because these immortal cities are all floating in the sky and covered by formations. Unless you know the method to enter, it's impossible for mortals to enter. As for those sects, they were built in some grotto-heavens and blessed lands, and then they used arrays to cover their tracks. They would only be revealed in front of others when they were facing fellow disciples or accepting disciples, so it was normal that you had never heard of them.”
Jiu Xuan nodded his head in a half-understanding manner. He only felt that he had to digest this information. Whether it was his encounter with this master, the bloody scenes in the village, or the flying sword at this moment, all of this was like a dream, an unreal dream. As he thought about it, Jiu Xuan's eyes began to turn slightly red. If he could, he really wished that all of this was just a dream. When he woke up from the dream, he would still be able to see his grandfather and eat his grandfather's cooking again. This time, he would definitely tell his grandfather that it was delicious.
Jiu Xuan didn't understand why his master liked this wine, but he seemed to understand. He couldn't tell what this subtle feeling was. At this moment, Mr. Jiang continued,"I have a very good relationship with him. It's just a pity that Yinian was the only one who harmed him back then.”As he spoke, he drank another mouthful of wine. Jiu Xuan hurriedly said,"Master, drink less. Drinking too much is not good for your body.”Mr. Jiang smiled but didn't say anything. He looked at the white clouds in the sky in a daze. Jiu Xuan didn't disturb him and just watched quietly from the side.
After a while, Mr. Jiang said to Jiu Xuan," We're here. My training ground is below." Then, he brought Jiu Xuan to a hill. Jiu Xuan looked at the hill under his feet with some confusion. He thought about the array that his master had mentioned and understood a little."It seems that Master's training ground is also hidden by that array.”He stared at Mr. Jiang, wanting to see how he had conjured the dojo. At this moment, Mr. Jiang took out a green jade token and drew an obscure character in the air.
Just as Jiu Xuan was wondering why he was doing this, a dojo slowly appeared in front of his eyes. A black plaque with a few mysterious and obscure words written on it did not look like the words of the mortal world. At first glance, Jiu Xuan felt that the dojo was very simple. He didn't know what kind of material the dojo was made of. There were some symbols and carvings on the unknown stones that he couldn't understand, making it look even more ancient and mysterious. The dark red door added a sense of history. The smoke floating around the dojo made it feel like a holy land of immortals.
Mr. Jiang pushed open the door. The dojo was not big, and Jiuxuan could see most of it from a glance. There was a tree in the middle of the dojo that Jiuxuan had never seen before. The leaves on the book were half green and half yellow, making people feel desolate. They could vaguely smell the incense in the dojo, which was very pleasing. "From today onwards, this will be your new home," Mr. Jiang said to Jiu Xuan.”As he spoke, he handed him a green jade token. The jade token emitted waves of coolness in his hand. Jiu Xuan looked at the azure dragon cloud pattern carved on it and asked in disbelief,"Master, are you really giving this to me?”
"Silly disciple," said Mr. Jiang with a smile,"you need this Green Jade Talisman to help you with many things in the Clear Sky Temple."”As he spoke, Mr. Jiang pointed at a building in the distance and said,""Do you see that? That's the library pavilion. If you don't have this Green Jade Talisman, you won't be able to enter the library pavilion. There are many such buildings in this Daoist temple, so do you want this Green Jade Talisman?”
Hearing his master's teasing, Jiu Xuan's face couldn't help but blush. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and whispered to Mr. Jiang,"Master, isn't this thing very expensive? In the future, I'll return it to you when I earn money.”As if he had heard something funny, Mr. Jiang burst into laughter. Jiu Xuan looked at him blankly and said in a weak voice,"Master, this thing can't be really expensive, right? Then I don't want it.”
As he spoke, he was about to return the Green Jade Talisman to Mr. Jiang. Seeing his reluctant expression, Mr. Jiang held back his laughter and said,"From now on, you will be the young master of this dojo. This green jade talisman is a symbol of status. You should keep it well. Although it's not something valuable, it's still something that Master personally refined.”Hearing this, Jiu Xuan smiled and put the Green Jade Talisman into his pocket. He looked at Mr. Jiang and said mischievously,""Master, don't you have any greeting gifts for your disciple?”
Mr. Jiang looked at him deeply and said enigmatically,""Of course, I have a meeting gift, but I can't give it to you today. If I want to give it to you, it'll be tomorrow. I'll bring you around the Clear Sky Temple first, in case you get lost in your own home.”Jiu Xuan was about to say that this place wasn't big, so how could it be lost? He couldn't help but look at Mr. Jiang suspiciously and think,"Master, don't tell me you really didn't prepare any greeting gifts? You said that you're familiar with the Clear Sky Temple, but you didn't just say that to cover up the awkwardness, did you?”
However, when Mr. Jiang brought him to familiarize himself with the Blue Cloud Temple, Jiu Xuan knew that his previous thoughts were wrong. This seemingly small Taoist temple was really very big. There were all kinds of buildings. After walking for a long time, Jiu Xuan did not see anyone else. He could not help but ask,"Master, is there no one else in this dojo besides us? Do I have any senior brothers or sisters?”Mr. Jiang looked at him and nodded.""That's right, there's no one else in the Clear Sky Temple. You're my first disciple, so you don't have any senior brothers or sisters.”Hearing this, Jiu Xuan couldn't help but feel sorry for Mr. Jiang. He couldn't imagine how Mr. Jiang had guarded this dojo for so many years.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Jiu Xuan felt as if his legs did not belong to him anymore. At this time, he had finally finished walking through this seemingly small Clear Sky Temple. Mr. Jiang looked at him and said,""I've set up a spatial formation in this Clear Sky Temple. It doesn't look too big, but it's much bigger than it looks. You must be tired from walking. It's getting late. Go and rest. Here's a bottle of fasting pills. You won't be hungry for a month if you take one pill. Take it first.”As he spoke, he handed a small porcelain bottle made of white jade to Jiu Xuan. Jiu Xuan took one out and put it into his mouth. He couldn't taste anything. After swallowing it, he really wasn't hungry anymore. Even the feeling of sleepiness had subsided a lot."How magical."
Lying on the bed, Jiu Xuan looked at the roof and could not help but be in a daze. He could not help but think of his grandfather. For a moment, he felt his heart suffocate. Smelling the incense smell in the air, Jiu Xuan muttered,"Grandpa, I will work hard to cultivate until I reach the realm that Master said I can avenge you.”Perhaps his body was too tired. Jiu Xuan fell asleep not long after smelling the incense. After he fell asleep, he had a dream. In the dream, he saw many people whose faces could not be seen clearly. They seemed to be talking to him. He opened his mouth to speak, but found that he could not make a sound.
