Chapter 141 Daoist Changgeng

The dragon race fought with the mosquitoes and I became the winner?

When he received the thank-you gift from the dragon race, Li Changshou only had a vague feeling

When Li Changshou received the Jade Emperor’s reward, he finally understood something…

Although the dragon race had won that battle, he had indeed profited from it. He had only wasted a bit of his immortal energy. The Sea God Sect suffered some losses from the wreckage of the temples but he obtained a small pile of treasures.

He had also obtained the dragon race’s gratitude and done them quite a huge favor.

How many times have I accepted that deal?

Forget it, it would be best if nothing happens.

Most of the treasures given by the Dragon Palace were precious Spirit Stones. A small amount of them were pure treasures like corals, pearls, and luminous pearls.

Naturally, the Dragon Palace would not give away common items like gold and silver. The precious materials, spirit stones, and the dozens of large boxes were all taken by Li Changshou’s paper effigies. They were useless in the mortal world.

There were many storage bags, and they played a crucial role here!

Li Changshou had given a portion of the treasures to the Magihuman Divine Envoys of Xiong Village, who had performed well. A portion of them was used to build the temple.

After this…

Li Changshou reckoned that the two paper effigies would be busy and spend ten days to half a month on just counting and handling the materials, and placing the secret Magi restrictions on them.

However, with this help…

There could be a huge advancement in Little Qiong Peak’s comprehensive defense array and Little Qiong Peak’s vagrant plan!

Although he had a supporter, he still had to run, ahem…

Although he had the backing of a big shot now, he still had to be fully prepared to deal with any emergency situations.

If you’re too conceited when a good thing happens, there will definitely be some mishaps that were not of an equal level. Li Changshou pondered for a while. The joy in his heart gradually turned into worry and he began to inspect his surroundings. However, just as Li Changshou finished counting the treasures given by the Dragon Palace, the familiar figure arrived at the familiar street and entered the familiar temple…

He was naturally General Dongmu, who had brought the Jade Emperor with him.

Li Changshou made one of the paper effigies turn into a thin, white-haired old man. He carried a horsetail whisk and was clad in a white robe as he rushed to meet General Dongmu.

Previously, Li Changshou had instructed General Dongmu to go to a different Sea God Temple, but his words had completely fallen on deaf ears.

After entering the spiritual painting of mountains and river, General Dongmu asked with concern, “Is the Sea God okay?”

“Yes, thank you for your concern.”

“This time, I’m not the only one who’s concerned. His Majesty is the one who sent me here.”

“Oh? Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty!”

Li Changshou cupped his hands towards the sky. His smile did not change much.

General Dongmu secretly sized him up. For some reason, when he saw that Sea God’s… paper effigy, he felt that the other party’s charm and Dao runes were slightly different.

It seemed… the Sea God was much more composed and confident than before. His white hair had become much softer and brighter.

“Sea God, this is a gift from His Majesty.”

General Dongmu held two storage bracelets and smiled. “Therefore, the Heavenly Court’s decree has yet to be formed. The God Position has yet to be restored. This time, the reward will not be honorable.”

Li Changshou walked forward and held the treasure in his hand. He said seriously, “Thank you for your reward, Your Majesty!”

Then, he casually grabbed a bracelet without looking at it. He took half a step forward and handed it to General Dongmu.

“General Dongmu…”

“Hey, what are you doing!?! I’m not that kind of immortal god!”

General Dongmu frowned and waved his hand. Li Changshou smiled and handed it over. He said, “It’s all thanks to the fact that you had put in a good word for me in front of His Majesty, General Dongmu. Take this as a wedding gift from me…”

The two figures inside the spiritual painting could be seen pushing each other and turning each other’s gifts down. It took a while before they stopped.

Hence, the rewards from the Jade Emperor were reduced by half.

Li Changshou’s heart was twitching, but he knew that it was a necessary step. According to the conversation he had with Elder Moon, he found out that the Immortal Gods of the Heavenly Courts were interested in that…

After that, the two of them chatted for a v and talked about irrelevant topics.

Li Changshou was not in a hurry to tell the Jade Emperor about the dragon race. Not only was the time not right now, but it was also easy for the Jade Emperor to be suspicious if he spoke too much.

General Dongmu tried to find a topic to talk about. He wanted to find out Li Changshou’s name. However, Li Changshou changed the topic without him noticing.

In the end, Dong Mugong had no choice but to ask directly, “We’re getting closer, Fellow Daoist. It’s rude of me to not know your Daoist name. May I know your name, Fellow Daoist? It’d be easier for me to report to His Majesty.” Li Changshou immediately smiled and nodded. However, his mind was racing.

Should I tell him my real name?

Wouldn’t that be a waste of the Saint’s help and effort to cover up for me?

Although his future plans were still to work in the Heavenly Courts and follow the Jade Emperor and Grand Supreme Elder, the image of the old immortal would be destroyed if the Jade Emperor knew that the Sea God of the South Ocean was not a hidden expert but a disciple. His prestige would be greatly reduced, and it would not be convenient for him to do anything

Li Changshou still wanted to be somewhat mysterious towards the Jade Emperor…

His heart skipped a beat.

My name is Li Changshou. How about…

Li Changshou smiled and said, “The Xuan Sect is in a wonderful realm. The immortal spirits are raised by themselves.

I have no other intentions. I have to seek immortality.”

General Dongmu frowned and said, “Fellow Daoist, is your Dao name hidden in those four sentences?”

Li Changshou smiled and asked, “Master Mu, do you know how many names are there in Ren School?”

General Dongmu could not help but think, Aren’t there only two people from Ren School?

One is the Grand Pure One, while the other is the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du…

That’s right. Great Daoist Master Xuan Du does not have any Daoist name or name. Furthermore, he has the Taiji Painting to ensure that his luck is not affected.

Do the experts of Ren School not like to use names?

In that case, how do they usually tell others about their names?

I am an intermediate Daoist in Xuandu Temple. I am Xuandu Temple’s Little Whirlwind. I am the Little Tyrant of the Grand Pure One…

General Dongmu composed himself and smiled bitterly. “But how should I report this to His Majesty?”

Li Changshou smiled and said, “I’ll give myself a Daoist name now. From today onwards, I’ll call myself Daoist Changgeng. You may tell that to His Majesty.”

“Sure!”

General Dongmu smiled and bowed to Li Changshou before returning to the Heavenly Palace to report.

After Li Changshou sent General Dongmu off, he took a look at the item bestowed by the Jade Emperor. It was nothing more than just some Spirit Stones and precious materials.

Although the Heavenly Courts had plenty of merit now, there were not many treasures. Li Changshou spent a month to secretly transport the treasures he could use back to the Immortal Du Sect after receiving the rewards from the dragon race and the Jade Emperor.

Li Changshou looked for Lingle and told her not to neglect her cultivation.

He went to report to his master that he was going to enter seclusion for five to ten years and asked his master to urge his junior sister to cultivate.

Li Changshou then activated the array formation near the Pill Chamber.

He had to properly study the two jade tokens given by Great Daoist Master Xuan Du and refine the precious materials into array foundations. He had to think about how to let the dragon race enter the Heavenly Courts.

As for the name that he had given the Jade Emperor…

It would be very difficult for anyone to establish any connection between Daoist Changgeng and Li Changshou’s real name.

How many men are there in the world?

Besides, how many people in the world outside the Immortal Du Sect know about me, Li Changshou?

‘Geng’ meant ‘age’. Asking someone for someone’s ‘geng’ would be akin to asking for their age.

“Changgeng” referred to old age. It is similar to longevity.

My surname was Li, and my name is Changshou. There is nothing wrong with Daoist Changgeng. If I’m a little more shameless, I can just say that Daoist Changgeng is the title of one of my paper effigies. So what?

“Oh? Daoist Changgeng…”

Sitting in the underground secret room, Li Changshou frowned and pondered. He was slightly puzzled.

If he added his surname to that Daoist name…

Li… Changgeng?

It seemed that the name sounded a little familiar, but when he searched his memories carefully, he could not tell where he had heard it.

Perhaps he had sensed something.

Li Changshou thought about that issue carefully for a few days. He felt that there was nothing wrong with his Daoist name, so he went to meet Ao Yi in his dream.

He had used Ao Yi to remind the dragon race that the Western Sect would not give up on controlling the dragon race until they died.

At the same time, Li Changshou also instructed Ao Yi not to leave Golden Ao Island without the protection of an expert from the dragon race.

There was a Green Touring Palace on the Golden Ao Island, which had a small path leading to the Saint.

As for the Grandmaster of Heaven, he was a prehistoric giant who wielded the four Immortal Vanquishing Swords. He cultivated on Golden Ao Island and cultivated in the Jade Void Palace of the Kunlun Mountain. It was usually safe.

After a few rounds of discussing business with Ao Yi, Li Changshou did not do anything else…

He had to wait for the right time to settle the matters of the dragon race.

He would not be able to subdue the dragon race with his strength alone.

Li Changshou’s thoughts were clear.

He had to make sure things were smooth-sailing, and not try to slow things down.

Not only did he have to complete the mission to let the dragon race enter the Heavens, but he also had to complete it beautifully. He did not want to have any karma!

In the secret underground chamber of the Pill Chamber in Little Qiong Peak, Li Changshou took out the two jade tokens and placed them aside. He still did not look at them.

He spread open the canvas again and stepped barefoot on the canvas. With a thoughtful expression, he quickly drew… a drumstick, an orchid, and a small slingshot.

I have to plan and come up with all kinds of countermeasures first. I have to find peace before anything else.

The opportunity would only be given to those who were prepared and could seize it.

Time flowed like water; the mountains and forests were quiet and tranquil.

In the second year of Li Changshou’s seclusion, the “Countermeasure Barrel” of Little Qiong Peak opened again. However, there was a rule this time. Only three bamboo lots would be given out each day.

That meant that Li Changshou had already formulated a plan to deal with the dragon race. He had written words on three boxes’ worth of cloth.

Li Changshou was currently refining the array foundation and trying to figure out the incarnation technique that the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du had imparted to him.

The sutra written by the Saint was called the ‘Great Pure Dao’.

In it, Li Changshou actually saw the concept of the Moral Sutra in the future. However, there was a huge difference between the two.

Li Changshou did not dare to continue reading after reading the first chapter…

There was no other way. After reading the first chapter, he gained insight and could not suppress his epiphany. He had no choice but to take a small step forward.

It was not a small realm before the Immortal Ascension. At Li Changshou’s level, even the Grand Elder in the sect would need at least a hundred years to fully comprehend a small realm.

The sutra of the Saint was indeed extraordinary!

Li Changshou reckoned that he would not be far from the Golden Immortal Tribulation after he meditated and gained enlightenment about the ‘Great Pure Dao’.

At that moment, his chances of transcending the tribulation would not be high. It could even be said that he would not be confident at all. He could not take reference from anyone regarding the Golden Immortal Tribulation.

Li Changshou was not in a hurry. He wanted to accumulate more power and increase his chances of transcending the tribulation.

The incarnation technique that the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du gave Li Changshou was naturally not the same as that of the Three Pure Ones.

It was an incarnation mystical ability known as the ‘Dao Combination’.

The Great Daoist Master Xuan Du taught Li Changshou something that he could use. When he saw Li Changshou’s paper effigy, he gave him a cultivation technique that could allow Li Changshou to perfect the paper effigies’ mystical abilities and make up for all the shortcomings of the paper effigies.

That was the opportunity he had obtained with his sincerity!

In addition, Li Changshou tossed and turned. As he thought about the content of the first chapter of the ‘Great Pure Dao’, he suddenly realized something.

The first few lines clearly contained the word ‘stable’!

Just kidding, just kidding.

It was the Grand Pure One’s Inaction Dao path, which was very different from his Dao path of seeking stability.

On this day… Li Changshou realized that a mountain patrol disciple had rushed over from the immortal sect.

His immortal senses scanned the royal chess room of the Little Qiong Peak. When he saw three figures playing inside, he did not bother about it.

Youqin Xuanya dropped by a few days ago. Her cultivation level had broken through again, and she was one step away from the Immortal Ascension Heavenly Tribulation.

She had never seen Li Changshou, so… she had been playing with Aunt-Master Jiu Jiu and Junior Sister Ling’e.

The male disciple stepped on the immortal crane and flew above Little Qiong Peak. He scanned it with his spiritual senses and could not find anyone.

Thus, he followed the laughter from the spiritual beast enclosure and flew over there.

The moment the disciple flew over, he heard…

“Senior Sister Youqin, you were not like that before! How can you go back on your word? If you lose, you have to admit and accept your punishment!”

“I’ll win later. Don’t paint these on my face. It’ll be very embarrassing if others see it.”

The disciple could not help but look down curiously. Through the window, he saw two figures fighting inside. He also saw the turtle that was painted by black ink…

Head Disciple?

Jiu Jiu suddenly smiled and said, “There really are people watching outside.” “Huh?”

With a clang, the Fire Scale Sword was unsheathed!
