Chapter 004: The senior sisters are much more formidable than the master
Amitabha
This made Su Anran somewhat suspicious; were the two of them trembling just now out of fear, or was it excitement triggered by hearing the name of their idol
The Illusory Divine Sea is about to open. Previously, due to the efforts of the second and third brothers, our Taiyi Valley secured three slots, but they are of no use to us now. Huang Zi shook his head and said, The old bald donkey just came to ask for the slots, and I sold two of them to the Great Sun Tathagata Sect.
Miao Yan and Miao Xin, what do you mean by looking at me with the same compassionate gaze you use for the vulnerable groups?
"Wait a moment." Su Anran was somewhat bewildered, "Master, why does the Illusory Divine Sea open after five months, yet I must establish the Divine Sea within three months?"
On the other hand, Miaoxin represents another extreme
... ...
Su Anran felt that her sect was quite remarkable; it seemed that every senior sister, aside from herself, possessed unique talents that allowed them to stand out on their own.
While Master Xuanbei and Huang Zi left, presumably to discuss some matters, the responsibility of receiving the two young masters naturally fell to Fang Qianwen and Su Anran
However, the last glory of Ling Mountain marked the end of the first ten characters, which have almost vanished into the long river of history
The two young disciples seem to be traveling far for the first time, and thus they are quite curious about Taiyi Valley here
Record it! Record it!
Now in someone else's territory, and unable to take action, Miao Xin would certainly not seek out trouble for herself
Su Anran had just crossed over and had not yet had the chance to properly explore Taiyi Valley, so the three of them began to wander around Taiyi Valley under the guidance of Senior Sister Fang Qianwen
He already knows that Senior Sister Fang Qianwen usually spends her time in the backyard planting flowers and refining elixirs, while Fourth Senior Sister is just like a female demon. Fifth Senior Sister and Sixth Senior Sister, like himself, are also from another world. Seventh Senior Sister and Eighth Senior Sister, like Senior Sister Fang, are both engaged in internal affairs, but one specializes in weapon refining and the other in array formation.
Is the senior sister very frightening?
He began to contemplate whether, if he were to travel outside, he should not let others know that he was the junior disciple of the Fourth Master, for he feared that he might have the life to go out but not the life to return.
Currently, the head of the Great Sun Tathagata Sect and the group of elders are primarily high monks of the善 (Shan) lineage
Senior sister, is it really good for you to be so reclusive
The activity area of the people in Taiyi Valley is primarily located in the upper half of the gourd, while the larger area below has been cultivated by the senior sister into a medicinal field, where many spiritual herbs are grown. In order to meet Fang Qianwen's specific needs for cultivating these spiritual herbs, the environment there has even been specially simulated by Huang Zi using the system. It can be said that the most important place in the entire Taiyi Valley is this medicinal field
At this point, Fang Qianwen proudly raised her head and puffed out her chest, causing her assets to tremble for quite a while: "Hmph, it has already been twenty years since I, your senior sister, last left the valley!"
I just saw a handprint that is five meters deep on the cultivation monument
She is not a masochist either
This also made Su Anran feel very curious about her fourth senior sister
Masters of the Xuan character lineage, such as Master Xuanbei, along with the already established Miao character lineage, currently represent the backbone of the Great Sun Tathagata sect
Little Jiu is the best! The moment Jiu Shijie is mentioned, Fang Qianwen instantly becomes spirited. Every time there is something I want, as long as I ask her, she can always find it for me... If you, Shidi, have anything you want, you can also ask Jiu Shijie for help
No, Senior Sister, when you speak of such terrifying matters with such a serious expression, I am quite frightened
"I don't understand. " Fang Qianwen said with a puzzled expression, "The fourth one is very nice, why would you ask that?"
This also led to the predicament three months ago when Master Xuanbei fell into the illusion array, trapping everyone in the entire Taiyi Valley inside.
Before formally becoming a disciple and receiving her Dharma name, she had been cultivating in the Martial Arts Academy, and now her cultivation level has reached the Spirit Gathering Realm. It is said that she has also constructed a seven-layer spiritual platform.
However, from the conversation, Su Anran learned that Miaoyan was a newly accepted disciple of Master Xuanbei.
He has been initiated into the Great Sun Tathagata Sect for nineteen years, during which he served as a guiding monk at the Wenchan Monastery—through Su Anran's perspective, he was the type who specialized in persuading others to join the Great Sun Tathagata Sect. It is said that Miaoyan also joined the sect in this manner back in the day—until recently, in the past half month, he was accepted as a disciple by Master Xuanbei, becoming the sixth direct disciple of Master Xuanbei, and was given the name Miaoyan
Upon hearing Su Anran's words, Fang Qianwen tilted her head and pondered for a while before saying: "The second and third, one is relatively capable, and the other wields a sword beautifully, right?"
Thus, when Su Anran spoke a few words, Miao Yan was left with a bitter expression, and Miao Xin readily admitted defeat.
Indeed. Fang Qianwen nodded, "Generally, there are only a few of us who stay in the valley, namely myself, Xiao Qi, and Xiao Ba. Apart from the orders from the master, the other senior sisters rarely return to the valley. However, this time Xiao Qi went to attend some kind of magical artifact exchange meeting, and Xiao Ba went to assist the Wanxiang Sect in repairing the mountain formation, so they probably won't be back in the short term. Now, I am the only one left in the valley."
Where is Junior Sister Nine
In the end, this young girl has only learned two sentences
After exploring the entire Taiyi Valley, Fang Qianwen even took them to see her medicinal herb field. Subsequently, Su Anran noticed Miaoxin and Miaoyan whispering to each other, their expressions filled with excitement
Su Anran noticed that the two little quails were trembling even more excessively
such as
I feel like my IQ is about to become negative
From Miao Yan and Miao Xin, Su Anran gained an understanding of the cultivation system of this world
Su Anran silently gave the senior sister thirty-two likes in her heart
Moreover, according to the meaning conveyed by the senior sister, it seems that there is no need for Huang Zi to take action; simply throwing out the fourth one will result in a scene of blood flowing like a river within half an hour
Well done, well done
Su Anran instantly understood that this destructive power was likely even more terrifying than that of the fourth brother
Jokingly, when Miaoyan usually communicated with her in the temple, she would use her fists to make Miaoyan speak plainly
The person who has crossed over from Earth
"Master, what has happened?" Fang Qianwen could not help but ask.
As Su Anran approached, she could vaguely hear some strange words.
Su Anran, who is keen to understand this world, naturally enters a mode of frenzied persuasion and empty rhetoric
In the realm of cultivation, if you have not reached the Destiny Realm, you belong to the lower class of laboring masses; only upon reaching the Soul Condensation Realm can one be considered a master
However, before Su Anran could inquire further, Master Xuanbei and Huang Zi's conversation seemed to have already concluded. He quickly departed from Taiyi Valley with Miaoxin and Miaoyan, and judging by their hurried demeanor, it appeared that they had some very important urgent matters to attend to
Currently, my cultivation level is at the second layer of the Qi Gathering Realm, but I am not far from reaching the third layer.
We have just entered the little courtyard of the female tyrant
These two individuals are like a pair of devoted fans
However, compared to eloquent words, Miaoxin prefers to comprehend Buddhist teachings. This young girl, who appears delicate and fragile, is, in fact, an unwavering enthusiast of cultivation.
What is this
What about the second and third senior sisters?" Su Anran asked again
The location of the gourd mouth is the valley entrance, which is also the only access point to the entire Taiyi Valley
Record it! Record it!
However, after he glanced at the mention of the Fourth Senior Sister's name, both Miao Yan and Miao Xin clearly became as timid as quails, and Su Anran knew that she must never provoke the Fourth Senior Sister
Aren't you essentially telling me that my fourth senior sister is quite terrifying
"Nonsense, you still have two months to practice your martial skills." Huang Zi rolled his eyes, looking at Su Anran as if he were an idiot, "If you don't learn martial skills, what will you use to compete for opportunities in the secret realm? Your words?"
Unfortunately, these two young masters seem to lack a deep understanding of the outside world, and thus are unable to adequately satisfy Su Anran's thirst for knowledge
As for the higher realm, that is a level that only great figures like Master Xuanbei and Huang Zi can access
According to the twenty-character lineage sequence, the current disciples of the Great Sun Tathagata sect are primarily from the "Shen" generation, while masters from the "Xuan" generation have almost ceased to take on disciples
What has the Fourth Senior Sister been doing while traveling outside?
The Great Sun Tathagata Sect is the orthodox lineage of the Sacred Lingshan, and thus they have inherited the twenty-character sequence established by the fifth generation leader of Lingshan: "The mind is upright and clear, virtue is firm and solid. Loyalty and goodness are profound and mysterious, tranquility and wisdom are true."
Therefore, the two young disciples, Miaoyan and Miaoxin, who belong to the Miaozhi generation and possess relatively low cultivation levels, are indeed worthy of further investigation
The first six realms can be simply described as "gathering true energy, opening the divine sea; connecting the seven orifices, building the spirit platform; revealing the true self, condensing the new soul"
But who is Su Anran
Su Anran is truly curious
The entire Taiyi Valley is a massive gourd shape
She is a disciple of Master Xuanying from Cidu An, having started her apprenticeship a week earlier than Miaoyan, and she is both more skilled and older than Miaoyan—although Miaoxin appears to be young, she is actually two years older than Miaoyan. This leads Su Anran to suspect that the Dayi Rulai Sect might have some secret to maintaining youth—thus, it is entirely reasonable for her to refer to Miaoyan as her junior brother.
Su Anran glanced at the two quails trembling with fear, and he felt that his way of questioning might have been somewhat problematic
The reason why Miaoxin follows Master Xuanbei is that Master Xuanying observed that this disciple was overly engrossed in her cultivation and thought it inappropriate for a young girl to be so caught up in fighting and killing. Therefore, he allowed her to study Buddhist teachings and Zen principles with Master Xuanbei, who is the abbot of the Zen Institute of the Great Sun Tathagata Sect.
I don't know either. Fang Qianwen furrowed her brows and thought for a long time, only to realize that she really didn't know anything. However, last time she heard her master say that she seemed to have gotten into a fight with someone in Zhongzhou, and casually wiped out several small sects. In the end, she was chased across the entire Zhongzhou, and it was her master who went out to bring her back, which is why she spent a year in seclusion in the valley. Recently, her master arranged for her to escort Xiao Ba to Wanxiangmen. It is said that the protective mountain formation of Wanxiangmen was damaged, and it is also related to her, so this time she is going to apologize.
What about the Second Senior Sister, the Third Senior Sister, and the Ninth Senior Sister
No, what I mean is that the Fourth Senior Sister is not in the valley right now; does she often travel outside
Just ... ...
Record it! Record it!
If the Fourth Senior Sister, the female tyrant, merely made Miaoxin and Miaoyan feel like southern people in short sleeves running to the north in winter, then the titles of the Second and Third Senior Sisters instantly made the two feel as if they were naked in the Arctic
If you do not understand, you must ask; this is indeed a fine tradition of Earthlings
At this point, Huang Zi glanced at Su Anran again before speaking: "I can only say that you are quite lucky. In five months, the Illusory Divine Sea Secret Realm will open. This secret realm opens once every twenty to thirty years, and only those who have just opened the Divine Sea but have not yet cultivated the Seven Orifices can enter. If you can open the Divine Sea within three months, then the remaining spot will be yours"
Su Anran blinked, and he suddenly understood why Miao Yan and Miao Xin were trembling.
This is the place for practicing swordsmanship
Humanoid Treasure Finder
This made Su Anran look at Huang Zi with a sense of curiosity
However, it is fortunate that the one trapped in the illusionary formation is Master Xuanbei; otherwise, according to Senior Sister Fang Qianwen, he would have long since ended up in the mass grave
