Where does one seek the Dao?

"Bang!"

A muffled thud was heard, followed by a piercing scream.

When the black mist dissipated, the two demons inside were lying motionless on the ground, their Yao Qi completely gone.

"Return."

Seeing this, Fang Zelin knew that the two demons had been killed.

After waving his hand to recall the water chain and water sword, he wiped away the water on the surface, revealing the small seal script inside.

This action was like removing the fruit and taking back the pit.

The small seal script characters are gradually revealed, but some of them have already lost much of their brilliance.

The demon's cultivation was truly high, requiring Fang Zelin to spend over a hundred small seal characters to deal with it.

The small seal script characters in Fang Zelin's gourd number only a little over two thousand.

After the small seal script was put away, the air was filled with the aroma of wine, making people swallow hard.

Fang Zelin raised his wine gourd, took a sip of Clear as Empty, and secretly praised it.

It seems Clear as Empty really can't get enough of drinking.

"I am Fang Zelin, greetings, fellow Daoist."

Fang Zelin approached and cupped his hands in greeting to Xuan Yi.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi quickly cupped his hands in return, "This humble Daoist, Xuan Yi, is grateful for Senior Fang's life-saving grace!"

Fang Zelin's methods just now truly shocked him.

He drew water from the stream and transformed it into weapons, instantly slaying the two demons.

That level of skill is far superior to his.

No wonder the junior disciples all address each other as "senior".

It was nothing more than a small favor.

Fang Zelin waved his hand, noticing a woman beside the other person, and said, "I wonder if there are any other people in this cave. Let's go in and check."

"That's how it should be."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi quickly agreed. The two entered the cave and searched for a while. After finding several villagers, they immediately took them away.

After a careful examination, the Yin Qi in their bodies was removed before they were placed in a nearby post station.

"Alas, the Great Jin has not even entered the period of dynastic change, yet so many monstrous talents have already appeared all around it."

After rescuing the person, Xuan Yi couldn't help but sigh.

Fang Zelin agreed wholeheartedly. He had encountered many demons on his way to this place, some of which Demonic Dao not very powerful.

But its advantage lies in its large number.

Pedestrians on the road are often kidnapped.

The journey has been filled with chaos.

"By the way, let me formally introduce myself, fellow Daoist. I am Xuan Yi, from Jade Void Mountain! This is my junior brother, Yang Xiang."

After treating the people, Xuan Yi respectfully introduced himself to Fang Zelin.

Jade Void Mountain?

Isn't that the old Daoist priest we met in Wangqing Mountain before?

Upon hearing this, Fang Zelin immediately thought of the old Wangqing Mountain.

Upon hearing this introduction, Fang Zelin instantly understood: the mountain where he cultivated was called "Where to Seek the Dao".

It complements the scenery of Seeking Dao Mountain.

"I, Fang Zelin, inquire about the Wangqing Mountain!"

"Wangqing Mountain?"

Hearing this, Xuan Yi was also taken aback, not expecting that Fang Zelin was actually cultivating in this place.

However, after a moment's thought, he nodded.

Those who cultivate the Tao don't particularly care where they practice.

As for settling in the mountains and forests, it's simply a better way to seek the Tao and cultivate one's mind.

After the three of them got to know each other a little, they arrived at Sunset Cliff.

After casting a spell, Xuan Yi saw three cranes flying in the distance, and then rode them away together.

Fang Zelin looked down at the clouds and sat on the back of the crane, feeling joyful.

Finally, at Jade Void Mountain, I can see other cultivators.

"I just witnessed the senior casting a spell, and the wine in that gourd was extraordinary; it seemed to contain Spiritual Qi?"

It will take some time to fly from here to Jade Void Mountain.

Xuan Yi turned to look at Fang Zelin, who was flying alongside him, and asked with a hint of curiosity.

How could that wine contain a trace of Spiritual Qi?

Fang Zelin smiled upon hearing this, removed the stopper, and summoned two wisps of Clear as Empty, which flew to the two of them.

"This is wine brewed by Fang himself. He irrigates his spiritual rice with Spiritual Power every day, so the wine he brews contains some Spiritual Qi."

"What?"

Xuan Yi and his companion were stunned for a moment upon hearing this.

This senior used Spiritual Power to irrigate the spiritual rice, and so on.

Xuan Yi tried to find a word to describe it, but after searching for a long time, he found himself at a loss for words.

Senior, don't you know that one must enter the Seeking Dao Mountain once to obtain a certain amount of Spiritual Qi energy for cultivation?

Isn't it a waste to squander this Spiritual Qi like this? Aren't you afraid of running out of Spiritual Qi for future cultivation?

Yang Xiang was shocked to hear this, realizing that his senior had cultivated to such a profound level.

Surely they know that only by entering the Seeking Dao Mountain can they obtain a certain amount of Spiritual Qi for their cultivation?

After thinking for a moment, Yang Xiang cautiously asked, "Senior, how many times have you been to the Seeking Dao Mountain?"

Fang Zelin was about to drink when he heard this. He thought for a moment, then frowned slightly. "I can't quite remember, but I think it's been seven or eight times."

"Each time I make progress in my cultivation, I go to the Seeking Dao Mountain once. After that, I stop recording the number of times."

Fang Zelin's words stunned Yang Xiang and the other man, who stood frozen in place.

No wonder.

No wonder the senior didn't care about this little bit of Spiritual Qi consumption. He's already been to the Seeking Dao Mountain so many times, why would he care about this little bit of Spiritual Qi?

Unlike him, no one else would fly directly through the mist when returning to the mountain, conserving their Spiritual Qi.

There are so many seniors, I'm too lazy to remember them all.

Such a realm is beyond their comprehension.

Thinking of this, he looked down at the wine in front of him and decided not to be polite anymore.

Given your profound knowledge and experience, it should be perfectly acceptable for you to drink a little of your wine.

The two immediately thanked Fang Zelin, and then took a sip of Clear as Empty.

The moment the wine touched my lips, its pure and lingering flavor, along with its rich Spiritual Qi, spread throughout my body.

This feeling invigorated both of them.

"Good wine!"

The two savored the Clear as Empty and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

As expected of a fine wine brewed by our predecessors, such a wine cannot be tasted in the mortal world.

"Hehe, isn't this wine delicious? I also have Asparagus Tuber Wine, All Things in Spring, One Point Brew."

"If you ever Wangqing Mountain again in the future, I will certainly have a drink with you."

Seeing the two praising him so highly, Fang Zelin couldn't help but smile.

The quality of this wine can be judged by Fang Zelin himself, a winemaker, who takes a sip after each use of the spell.

"In that case, I might have to ask my senior for a drink sometime!"

Upon hearing Fang Zelin's words, Xuan Yi immediately cupped his hands in a gesture of joy.

I haven't met many other fellow practitioners, but I often hear my master talk about them. Most of the other cultivators are of noble character, and it's worthwhile to make friends with them.

Meeting this senior today, I know that what my master said was true.

Despite the fine wine, this senior showed no sign of holding back.

Moreover, it was brewed by this senior using Spiritual Qi.

The rarity and preciousness of such fine wine are self-evident.

Fang Zelin was about to say something when he saw the clouds and mist suddenly part, revealing a mountain peak in front of him.

The mountain peaks stand above the clouds and mist, surrounded by pavilions and towers, perched on cliffs or stone platforms.

At first glance, it looks like a fairyland.

Compared to this place, Fang Zelin's place is quite poor.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a sacred mountain!

Upon seeing this, Fang Zelin couldn't help but think that this mountain was truly wondrous.

"Senior, this is Jade Void Mountain."

Xuan Yi stood up at this moment and then introduced himself to Fang Zelin.

Fang Zelin nodded upon hearing this, his face full of admiration. "This mountain is breathtakingly beautiful; it could truly be called a fairyland."

"That's unacceptable."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi quickly replied modestly.

He then directed the cranes to land on the stone platform, which was also used for practicing magic and was almost identical to the training ground.

After the crane landed, Xuan Yi took out some grains from his cloth bag and wanted to feed them to the crane.

Little did anyone know that the crane raised its long neck high and cried out, then looked towards Fang Zelin.

"Haha, even the cranes are craving my Clear as Empty."

"Very well, thank you for giving me a ride."

Fang Zelin took out the wine gourd and led Clear as Empty, giving it to the crane Sanqing Clear as Empty.

The crane opened its beak, inhaled, and then flew away.

Seeing this, Xuan Yi was both amused and exasperated, and led Fang Zelin toward the main hall.

"Senior brother is back! Congratulations on your return from your training, junior brother!"

There were still quite a few disciples of Jade Void Mountain on the stone platform training ground at this moment.

Upon seeing the two return, he was immediately overjoyed.

"This is Senior Fang. He asks about the Wangqing Mountain. From now on, I should show him the respect due to a junior when I see him."

Upon seeing his fellow disciples, Xuan Yi immediately stepped forward and introduced them.

Upon hearing this, all the disciples of Jade Void Mountain were taken aback for a moment, then quickly bowed and said, "Disciples Xuan Yan, Xuan He, and Yang Xi greet Senior."

"No need for that, we can just address each other as fellow Daoists."

Previously, he could not find a single fellow Daoist, but today, upon arriving at Jade Void Mountain, he found himself surrounded by fellow Daoists, and Fang Zelin couldn't help but smile broadly.

"Senior seems to wish to see Master. Please follow me."

Xuan Yi waved his hand to dismiss the disciples, then led Fang Zelin forward.

After a short while, the two arrived in front of a grand hall, where Xuan Yi bowed and said, "Master, Junior Brother Yang Xiang has completed thirty years of training and is being brought back to the mountain today."

"Well, your cultivation of mind is complete, so let's begin the teachings."

A voice rang out, and then an old Daoist priest walked out of the main hall.

The old Daoist priest glanced around, and when he saw Fang Zelin standing next to his two disciples, he was immediately stunned.

"Senior?"

Qingyun stared at Fang Zelin, momentarily stunned.

They had been waiting for Fang Zelin to come and pay his respects, but after waiting for so long, Fang Zelin still hadn't arrived.

I never expected to see you here at Jade Void Mountain today, senior.

senior?

Xuan Yi and Yang Xiang, who were standing to the side, were also taken aback. Why was even their master addressed as "senior"?

Judging from this, do the master and the senior still know each other?

"I have come to pay my respects today; please forgive my abruptness, fellow Daoist."

Upon seeing Qingyun before him, Fang Zelin immediately smiled and said...

"This humble Daoist has been waiting for you for quite some time, how could I possibly be being presumptuous? Please, senior, take a seat."

Upon seeing Fang Zelin in front of her, Qingyun breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Previously, he had been thinking about how to thank Fang Zelin for his kindness, and now he finally had the opportunity!

Fang Zelin did not refuse upon hearing this and stepped forward towards the main hall.

Based on what the other party said, it seems he can now make a request.
