Chapter 276 275. A stillness and a movement, a heaven-made opportunity (two-in-one chapter)
\"Pure Yang Realm?\"\n\nTranslate the above webpage content into English, preserving the original webpage tags.","type":"text"}]
Xu Yuanzhen has been busy refining something on the mountain recently.
Hearing Tang Xiaotang's arrogant remarks after coming out, she couldn't resist saying, "Alright, let's give it a try."
Lei Jun watched with great interest as the battle unfolded.
```htmlIn the Daoist talisman sect, the eight levels of heaven are called the realm of the divine court, with four divine court scenes, which are from low to high: inner scene, middle scene, outer scene, and upper scene, also known as the first to fourth level of the divine court realm.```
If the state of communication between the seven heavens and the mortal realm is regarded as a path connecting humans and deities, then overcoming the obstacles and hardships between the seventh heaven and the eighth heaven is truly ascending to the heavens.
```htmlWhen the practitioners of the Symbol Script sect reach the fifth level of cultivation, they construct the Dao Palace; when they reach the eighth level, they construct the Divine Court.
Practitioners of the Symbol Script sect follow the path of understanding and communicating with nature. They continuously deepen their communication and understanding of the natural world. The Divine Court is a specific manifestation and reconstruction of the practitioner's understanding of the natural world.```
At first, it is only within oneself, so it is called inner scenery. To some extent, it can also be called a single inner universe.
As far as practical combat methods are concerned, the most obvious manifestation is to use the inner universe or inner scenery to contain one or more Dharmakaya, and to simultaneously erect two Dharmakaya to face the enemy.
Lei Jun and Tang Xiaotang have special bone constitution, and they can rely on the advantage of their constitution to establish a law image of over one statue in advance when they are in the state of Heaven.
However, without the support of internal capacity, although Lei Jun and Tang Xiaotang have the dual dragons and dual tigers in their daily practice, they can only maintain one law image at the same time in actual combat.
```htmlWhen using another dharma image, it needs to be scattered and reassembled, or changed and transformed.
When cultivating the inner scenery of the divine court, one is no longer subject to similar restrictions.
And when cultivating a higher level of inner scenery in the divine court, the internal universe continues to expand, resonating with the external universe and mutually influencing each other.```
Although it cannot be fully manifested, it can defend oneself against the enemy during the fight, and provide protection for the practitioners of the Rune sect in the Shen Ting, but there is not much clue from the appearance.
Sure, here's the translation while preserving the original HTML tags:```htmlIf the exterior of the divine court is further refined, the internal universe will expand again, completely manifesting outward, and will also form a small world independent of heaven and earth in appearance.```
```htmlWhen a practitioner of the Fu Lu Sect unfolds their outer realm of the Eightfold Celestial Divine Court's third layer, it's akin to opening up a domain outside the heavens and earth.
Although there are still many immature aspects, the myriad principles and artistic conceptions within this world are all manifestations of the practitioner's own divine powers and abilities, changing according to their thoughts. When the practitioner is within it, they wield immense power with every movement and gesture, as if they are in their own advantageous territory.```
因为秉承修士自身参悟天地道理的诸般理解，故而即便是修持完全相同道法的八重天修士，神庭外景亦可能有或多或少的不同。
某种程度上来说，每一个神庭外景，皆独一无二。
例如上代天师李清风的神庭外景，称为龙虎道宫。
许元贞的神庭外景，称终焉深空。
Now Tang Xiaotang's divine court appearance has been named by herself as the Pure Yang Realm.
At this moment, she was fighting against Xu Yuanzhen, with Lei Jun observing. One could see, with Tang Xiaotang as the center, a large expanse of pure golden light expanding, occupying a huge area, as if forming a world completely made of pure gold.
```htmlIn that world, golden lightning intertwined with flames.
While opposite, Xuyuanzhen is surrounded by dark thunderclouds.
The thunderclouds expanded and grew, instantly resembling frozen black glaciers floating in midair.```
But when this glacier-like huge black cloud comes into contact with Tang Xiaotang's pure Yang realm, changes start to happen again.
Inside the pitch-black thunderclouds, it seems to have turned into an endless and profound void of the universe.
All light and heat are moving away, leaving only endless solitude and deep cold.
One pure gold, one darkness, one fervor, one loneliness, the edges of two small worlds touching in midair, then starting to squeeze each other.
```htmlIntense confrontation, but quietly.
At the end, Lei Jun was left with a huge spherical object in his field of vision, half golden and half black, constantly surging and not giving way to each other.```
There is always an objective gap in the cultivation realm between the two sides.
As Xu Yuanzhen said, even if she intends to control it, there are some paths she has already walked while Tang Xiaotang has not, and the invisible difference is substantial.
神庭四景，第三层外景之境继续前进，可得上景。
至神庭上景，修士营造独属于自己的小世界，方算初步成熟。
相较于神庭外景，神庭上景不仅更加稳固范围更大，同时在实战斗法中也更加主动，攻守兼备的同时，更可以尝试强行摄拿敌人入自己的神庭上景。
而有朝一日，修士更进一步修成道家九重天大乘之境，则神庭上景化大乘道景，各方面威能都将更进一步提升，谓之曰神通近乎道。
The half-golden, half-black sphere oscillated in mid-air for a long time, and then began to slowly separate.
Two small worlds, one golden and one black, re-established themselves and stood in opposition.
The exterior of the golden divine court gradually converged and eventually disappeared, leaving only Tang Xiaotang with golden hair and eyebrows.
Tang Xiaotang no longer has the excited look she had before, nor is she disappointed, showing a rare calm expression.
Her golden eyebrows are slightly frowned, staring ahead as if in contemplation.
Across from her, the dark world reassembles and finally turns into a dark thundercloud, lifting up Xuyuanzhen from below.
Xu Yuanzhen also refrained from mocking Tang Xiaotang and instead nodded slightly, saying, "It's acceptable that it's a bit rough at the beginning; the important thing is that it's very spiritual."
Tang Xiaotang did not respond but seemed to have gained some inspiration, still deep in thought.
```htmlHer eyebrows gradually returned to black, and she stood still in mid-air.
Xu Yuanzhen didn't disturb the other party, waved his hand, and then returned to her own cave mansion, as if she wanted to continue her previous busy work of refining spiritual objects.```
半晌之后，唐晓棠身形下落，她回过神来，目光扫视四周，留意到还在一旁的雷俊，不禁撇撇嘴：“你那张毒嘴，别开口。”
```html“I just want to remind Senior Sister that the day of the new ordination ceremony is approaching.”
Lei Jun spread his hands, "If you want to retreat again, it can wait until after presiding over the ceremony."```
Sure, here's the translation of the webpage content while keeping the original HTML tags:```htmlTang Xiaotang puffed up her cheeks: "I remember."
She seemed to suddenly realize something, looking at Lei Jun with a hint of doubt:
"I was too excited when I just got out of the closed-door training and didn't pay attention. Now, looking at you compared to before, it seems like there's some change in you?"```
She had been secluded for a long time, with no communication with the outside world. When she talked to Lei Jun, she was surprised to hear about the various changes in recent years: "I missed a lot of good shows!"
Lei Jun: "Let nature take its course."
Tang Xiaotang's greatest concern was indeed Lei Jun's recent improvement in his aptitude: "Is it really the Dual Cultivation Body?"
Lei Jun nodded: "Yes."
Tang Xiaotang was eager and circled around Lei Jun twice, saying, "Tell me in detail, tell me in detail."
Lei Jun did not hide anything from her in this regard, and provided more explanations.
Finally, behind him appeared a Tai Chi diagram, with the interplay of Yin and Yang, shining bright and dark equally.
As Tang Xiaotang watched with relish, a Tai Chi diagram appeared behind him, half transparent and half pure gold.
The two Tai Chi diagrams complemented each other, and Tang Xiaotang nodded repeatedly.
```htmlShe looked at Lei Jun with some emotion: "I admit, you indeed have a good luck."
Lei Jun: "Senior Sister, you've been happy for almost forty years, I've only been for two years."
He mentioned the matter of the newly restored Tian Gong Chapter.```
```htmlTang Xiaotang heard that there is hope to elevate one's understanding from tranquility to spontaneity, and her eyes lit up instantly: "Oh? I'll go take a look later."
Lei Jun: "Currently, it's just an opportunity. Whether it can succeed or not depends on subsequent other chances."```
“Let's try our luck, although you have good luck, but I still want to try.”
Tang Xiaotang smiled and said, "Luck is something that can't be explained. If it belongs to you, or to someone else, it doesn't matter. Who knows if I will have other opportunities in the future?"
Her smile suddenly became a little mysterious: "Besides, I am not without any luck. Things may turn out different than expected. Does sister think that she can rely on her high understanding without worries? Let's wait and see!"
Lei Jun looked at the other person and seemed to be thinking.
Tang Xiaotang's mind jumped, and as she talked, she changed the topic. She muttered as she walked, "Besides Fu Dongsen, Hong Jie, Wei Qiyue, and Wang Dongchu are also... Shushan is really..."
```htmlShe muttered in her mouth: "Back in Jinzhou, I met Yu Qiuyue once. I said at the time that I felt the people of Shushan seemed suspicious, it turns out it's all here. But at that time, her intentions were not obvious, and I couldn't say for sure that she indeed had ulterior motives."```
Lei Jun nodded slightly.
When Tang Xiaotang first mentioned this matter, Lei Jun speculated that the Shu Mountain side was paying attention to the so-called high-ranking outsiders of the Tianji Palace secretly helping in the battle for the ancestral land of the Lin clan in Pojiang Prefecture.
I believe Wei Qiyue did come for that matter.
```htmlShe was just deep in thought and didn't show any obvious hostility towards Tang Xiaotang at the time, so Tang Xiaotang's sensing wasn't clear either.
"Has Chen Donglou really fallen?" Tang Xiaotang asked Lei Jun again, "Is the Ziwei Sword in the Land Sea?"```
Sure, here's the translation while keeping the original HTML tags:```htmlLei Jun: "At the beginning, it was indeed the information obtained by the Elder Chen of Shu Mountain that the Purple Micro Sword was indeed in the Land and Sea where the people of Jiuli were active, but so many years have passed, whether it is still the case remains to be further verified."```
These two years, I have been busy with my own cultivation. I plan to explore further when I have the opportunity in the future. As for whether I can find the Purple Star Sword, it will depend on my luck. If junior sister is interested, I can transfer the sword mark to you.
Tang Xiaotang casually said, "I'm a bit curious. I haven't directly experienced the mysteries of the six great treasures of Shushan Mountain yet, but I'm not really interested in searching for them. If you find them in the future, lend them to me to take a look."
She raised her hand, and with a flick of her fingers, a piece of talisman paper appeared between her index and middle fingers: "Recently, besides continuing to perfect the four scenic views of the divine court, my main focus has been on this aspect."
Lei Jun took a glance and realized: "Pure Yang Talisman?"
Unlike his Xuanxiao Five Thunder Method, it was gradually developed step by step from the basic spiritual talisman Five Thunder Talisman.
Tang Xiaotang's Tianhuang Pure Yang Method and Shenxiao Pure Yang Method were both created by her after reaching the top three levels of cultivation.
The foundation lies in her own pure yang immortal body.
So if others want to try to comprehend and learn the law talismans she created, the difficulty is extremely high.
In recent years, Tang Xiaotang has been practicing while simplifying and deducing her own supernatural talismans, hoping to leave a legacy for the sect and contribute to the collection of talismans in the Tian Shi Fu talisman sect.
Correspondingly, the difficulty in this aspect will naturally be greater than that of Lei Jun.
Because Lei Jun's talismans are not like hers, derived from a special constitution.
However, in addition to her innate constitution, Tang Xiaoxiao also has high intelligence.
眼下这张纯阳符，便是初步成果。
虽然当前还是基础灵符，但已经开了个好头。
继续下去，高等灵符相信也已经为期不远。
By then, there will be several more powerful spirit symbols in the Tian Shi Fu's symbol scriptures.
But this doesn't mean that others will be able to easily cultivate the Pure Yang Thunder Dragon and Pure Yang Fire Tiger like Tang Xiaotang.
但至少，有了一条可能的路径。
将来不断积累发展下去，就算后来者修成的纯阳雷龙和纯阳火虎没有纯阳仙体修士那般强大，也仍然是一条崭新坦途。
```htmlLei Jun took the Pure Yang Talisman from Tang Xiaotang's hand, carefully pondered its mysteries, nodding repeatedly, "Quite a few ingenious aspects, quite a few."
At this moment, Tang Xiaotang seemed to suddenly remember something, "By the way, you mentioned earlier about the remaining Easy Reversal Qi you obtained?"```
Lei Jun: "There is still a little left. Does Senior Sister need it?"
Tang Xiaotang said, "Senior Master may need it more in the future. I will not refine it, but lend it to me to observe and ponder for a period of time."
Lei Jun nodded and took the tripod, which had been carefully nurtured all along, and handed it over to Tang Xiaotang.
As Tang Xiaotang took the tripod and glanced at the easy transformation of the universe inside, he nodded slightly, "This is indeed a good spiritual object."
After chatting for a few more moments, Tang Xiaotang returned to the Tian Shi Temple. On one hand, she needed to summarize the gains from her earlier sparring with Xu Yuanzhen, and on the other hand, she needed to prepare to preside over the New Year ceremony and the ceremony for conferring certificates later in the evening.
对这些典礼，唐天师早先还颇感兴趣，每每感觉脸上添光。
但时间久了，她就开始有些嫌麻烦。
授箓大典再次只担任监度大师。
```htmlThis year, the abbot who presides over the conferment ceremony and serves as the main host is held by Master Shangguan Ning.
Other elders like Lei Jun and Zhang Jingzhen assist from the side.
As usual, Xu Yuanzhen, on similar occasions, basically does not participate.```
Of course, this does not affect her presence at all.
Although the various foreign guests cannot see her in person, she is still the focus of discussion.
To be precise, one of the focal points.
Another three individuals that Xuzhen discussed with were Tang Xiaotang and Lei Jun, as well as Lei Jun's only direct disciple, Zhuo Baojie.
Looking at the Grand Master Tang and Elder Lei at the ceremony, and then at the upcoming candidate for ordination this year, many guests were emotionally moved.
After the grand ceremony, Shangguan Ning once again entertained the guests who stayed on the mountain.
"Master Lei's eldest disciple has also been granted the scripture this year," said Prince Xun'an Zhang Mu, with a majestic and solemn demeanor, resembling a learned Confucian scholar, but he was a member of the royal family.
Simultaneously, both Shang Ning and Zhang Jingzhen nodded slightly.
Zhang Jingzhen calmly spoke, "Senior Lei has no intention of taking on another disciple at the moment."
Zhang Mu sighed softly, "I see..."
```htmlShangguan Ning said, "This matter should not be rushed, let it take its natural course."
Zhang Mu sighed softly but remained silent.
Currently at the Celestial Master's Mansion, perhaps even the current number one expert of the Tang Dynasty Daoist community, Xu Yuanzhen, is renowned not only for her strength but also for her temperament and style.```
Xu Yuanzhen never accepts disciples.
Even when her master, Li Qingfeng, was still alive, it was the same.
She once brought two people back to Longhusan, who are now the other two famous young masters in the world, Tang Xiaotang and Lei Jun.
According to the long-standing customs of the Daoist sects, both Tang Xiaotang and Lei Jun should actually have been under her sect, but in the end, both of them were apprenticed to other masters.
If Tang Xiaotang and Lei Jun are like this, others shouldn't have any expectations either.
However, contemporary celestial master Tang Xiaotang has shown no signs of taking on any disciples.
The only person who has set a precedent is Lei Jun.
At the same time, Zhang Mu and others also have high hopes for Master Lei's future.
Regardless of whether Tang Xiaotang will succeed as the Celestial Master after this, if Master Lei takes over, barring any major mishaps, he will undoubtedly be one of the mainstays of the Celestial Master's Palace for the next few centuries.
他这一脉传承，也必将是天师府众至关重要的传承脉络。
唐廷帝室自然希望，能有子弟加入其中。
可惜诚如上官宁和张静真所言，如此事，唯有顺其自然。
However, Zhang Mu couldn't help but feel speechless when he remembered that round little Taoist who changed into a deep red Daoist robe at the conferment ceremony.
As for what Prince Xun'an thought, Lei Jun and his disciples didn't pay much attention to it.
```htmlIn the present, Lei Junzhuang is passing on to his own disciple the third volume of "The True Way of Rectifying the Law," just as his own master Yuan Mobai did back in the day.
Zhuo Baojie's face carries a serious yet humane expression as he earnestly learns the Tao from his master Lei Jun.```
Lei Jun's tone was a bit vague: "Come here for a hug..."
Zhuo Baojie did not correct his master's title this time, but just looked serious and respectful: "Please give your orders, Master."
Lei Jun: "You've passed the assessment for the conferred scriptures."
Zhuo Baojie: "I am grateful for the teachings of Master in the past, and I will not forget them in the future. I will definitely focus on cultivation with a quiet mind."
Lei Jun: "I will have the opportunity to enter the Upper Qing Lei Mansion soon."
Zhuo Baojie: "Disciples must listen to the instructions of the team leader senior brother, do not run around, do not cause trouble for the master."
Lei Jun handed over the paper: "First wipe your mouth."
Zhuo Baojie: "Hiss, thank you, master... ouch!"
Lei Jun withdrew his hand somewhat angrily: "Stinky boy, behave yourself."
A certain little bear hugged his head with both hands, and his dignified expression instantly broke, leaving only an awkward smile.
Lei Jun pointed at him in the air.
Just as he was speaking, Chukun walked into the courtyard.
Lei Jun: "You missed the ceremony for receiving the scroll. I was a little worried about you."
Chukun sighed, "It took more time than expected."
He casually took out a spiritual fruit and handed it to Zhu Baojie.
Zhu Baojie's small eyes kept rolling, but his face was serious and he accepted politely, "Disciple thanks Master Uncle for the precious gift."
```htmlChu Kun chuckled, "You've received the transmission, so now you can enter the Upper Clear Thunder Mansion. Let me go ahead and pave the way for you, lest you go in and wreak havoc, causing the mansion to be completely devastated."
Zhu Baojie held a solemn expression, "Senior Brother jests. How could a junior like me dare to do such a thing?"```
```htmlLei Jun smiled, waved his hand to let the eldest disciple step back, and then looked at Chu Kun: "What's the matter?"
Chu Kun then took out something else: "This trip outside for training didn't bring back anything particularly good for Senior Brother, but remembering that Senior Brother had some arrangements elsewhere earlier, I wonder if this can be of use?"```
He took out a brocade box.
After opening it, the treasure inside shimmered with a faint light, like a piece of crystal.
The crystal's radiance was gentle, but the aura emanating from it made Lei Jun's eyes light up.
Sure, here's the translation while preserving the original HTML tags:```htmlThe breath is warm, yet it carries a rich sense of returning to the original nature, embracing the way of all things returning to their roots, deeply hidden within.
At first glance, it seems unremarkable, but the spiritual essence within is actually very profound.```
```htmlIt is indeed corresponding to the nature of the Primordial Spirit Mother.
Lei Jun recalled many scriptures he had read while on duty at the Chishi Pavilion: "Primordial Spirit Mother Crystal?"
Chu Kun nodded slightly: "Indeed, it is the Primordial Spirit Mother Crystal."```
```htmlThis treasure, for Taoist symbol practitioners, although rare, its usefulness is limited.
But for Taoist alchemy practitioners, it is extremely important spiritual item, even surpassing immortal spirit seeds!```
```htmlBy borrowing this Yuan Tian Crystal for cultivation, those cultivators who have already cultivated the Dao Embryo of the Sixfold Heaven will have a greater hope of taking the crucial step towards breaking through the Nascent Infant stage.
For Lei Jun, this is indeed not considered very precious.```
But for Kang Ming, who inherits both the Fulu School and the Danding School, it is extremely important heavenly material and earthly treasure.
Kang Ming opposed to seizing warmth and enlightening dryness, integrating the residual soul of the other party's primordial infant and the remaining golden core, but it cannot be said that he has become a primordial infant cultivator.
He stands on the threshold between Dao Embryo and Yuan Ying, and this step still requires his own efforts to cross over.
With this Yuan Heaven Crystal, coupled with his own qualifications and Wen Zhaoqian's legacy, this step becomes quite simple.
The Yuan Tian Crystal is extremely rare.
It is hard to find even in the Pure Yang Palace, let alone outside.
Lei Jun thanked Chu Kun for passing on the Yuan Tian Crystal, but did not pass this treasure on to Kang Ming immediately.
It is not that Leijun wants to manipulate Kang Ming with the Heavenly Mother Crystal or obtain something from him, but Leijun is thinking about the right timing.
"By the way, have you ever considered taking on the position of Elder?"
雷俊忽然想起一事，问对面的楚昆。
对方已经五重天的境界修为，论条件达标。
天师府当前人丁仍然显单薄，尤其是中层缺人。
Just like Lei Jun, who was also appointed as an elder when he was in the Fifth Heavenly Realm.
However, Chu Kun is currently in a rapid growth stage, and it is also possible to focus on practicing diligently.
Although there is a shortage of people in Fuzhong, it is not as tense as it was in the previous years.
Chu Kun: "What does the government mean?"
Lei Jun: "Shangguan Shibo and Zhang Shijie want you to gain some relevant experience, and Xiao Shijie and Master have no objections."
Chu Kun pondered for a moment and then said, "Brother, please allow me a few more days to consider."
Despite his words, based on Lei Jun's understanding of him, Chu Kun's tone seemed to indicate his intention to take on the responsibility.
"I'm willing to give it a try, but there are still some aspects I haven't fully considered," Chu Kun didn't hide anything from Lei Jun. "Let me think it over carefully again."
雷俊：“自然无妨，此事你自己掌握。”
楚昆想起一事，笑道：“对了，师兄，现在很多人都在猜你能否五十岁前冲上八重天。”
```htmlLei Jun said calmly: "It's difficult. Just practicing step by step like now, the hope is not great."
If his root bone had been upgraded from Yin-Yang Sacred Body to Taiji Immortal Body earlier, then there would be a chance.```
```htmlTwo years ago, he was promoted. Now, at the age of forty-six, time is becoming more pressing.
Moreover, there are trials and tribulations from the seventh to the eighth heavens waiting ahead.
Chu Kun pondered, "Senior Brother, you have always been blessed by auspicious stars, a person with great fortune and opportunities. I believe nothing can defeat you. I will also keep an eye out for you in these years."```
```html"I'll take your kind words to heart," Lei Jun smiled, "In matters like these, it's best to go with the flow and do your best."
The two senior brothers chatted about this for a few moments, but Lei Jun didn't particularly dwell on it.
He continued to follow his own pace, steadily practicing, without considering going out to seek fortune.```
```htmlHowever, as winter gave way to spring, Senior Sister Xǔ Yuánzhēn, who had rarely stayed in the mountains for a while, was stirred by thoughts again.
“I'll take a walk over to Zhōngnán Mountain.” She casually remarked.```
Lei Jun was only seeing her off, but suddenly, a light ball flashed in his mind, and words began to appear:
【The clouds in Zhongnan Mountains break, the northern lights rise with the wind, one quiet and one moving, a coincidence of destiny.】
并随之飞出三道签运：
【中上签，赴终南山外北光山一行，有机会得二品机缘一道，但可能有风浪颠簸，后续因果纠缠，吉。】
```html【Middle, won the lottery, going to Chunyang Palace in Mount Zhongnan, neither gaining nor losing anything extra, neutral.】
【Middle, won the lottery, staying on the top of Mount Longhu, neither gaining nor losing anything extra, neutral.】```
