Chapter 166 Target Yaochi

In June, the weather gradually became hotter.

At noon, a group of Taoists from Huangshan Taoist Temple no longer wandered around the palace, but hid in their dormitories to enjoy the air conditioning.

Xu Xiaoli, Lu Shisheng and Zheng Xian sent Fang Yi to the door.

Zheng Xian bowed and said, "Palace Master, I wish you a safe journey."

Fang Yi looked at him with a smile, "Thank you for the good words, Abbot Zheng."

Xu Xiaoli reluctantly said, "Master, you must come back soon."

Although Lu Shisheng didn't say anything, there was still reluctance in his eyes.

"Well, I'll be back soon after I finish my work."

Fang Yi nodded slightly, then pointed at the incarnation of Tieguai Li who was sitting at the door drinking from a gourd and said, "This is my junior fellow apprentice Li Xuan. After I leave, he will guide you and Shi Sheng in your cultivation."

Xu Xiaoli nodded vigorously, "Okay, Master, I will definitely listen to what I have been told and practice well."

Lu Shisheng expressed the same view.

Fang Yi didn't say anything more, turned around and slowly walked away.

Although this battle with Tieguai Li greatly improved his cultivation, it also sounded a wake-up call for Fang Yi.

The little boy had a healthy physique and looked like a long-lived person, but because of "fate", his lifeline was broken and he was strangled to death.

Fang Yi then understood one thing: physical lifespan is not true lifespan.

In other words, even if you give someone the golden apple to eat, it should extend their life by 200 years.

But in reality, if "fate" wants to kill, this person still cannot escape destruction.

Fang Yi doesn't want to live a lonely life, so naturally he hopes that the people around him can live long.

Since the golden apple cannot guarantee immortality.

He must find a magical power to achieve immortality again.

This was one of the reasons why he left the palace and went on a long journey.

This is not the most important reason.

The most important thing is that after Fang Yi cultivated his primordial spirit, he saw a "more real world".

There were clearly thirteen floors at a glance, but he could only see four.

Therefore, Fang Yi wanted to see if he could get a glimpse of the situation in the "dimensions" above the fourth level from the divine domain of some god.

He had a vague premonition.

Perhaps there are some amazing secrets hidden in the fifth or sixth dimension.

If I could uncover these secrets, perhaps eternal life would not be far away.

Therefore, Fang Yi decided to go on a hike to "explore the mystery".

Explore those magical powers that may allow you to see situations above the fourth dimension and allow those around you to truly achieve immortality.

Of course, he is not aimless.

"The final destination is the Queen Mother of the West's Yaochi in Kunlun Mountain."

Fang Yi looked towards the south of the mountain. "It is said that the Queen Mother has the magical power to grant people their age. If I can obtain her magical power, I think I can truly make the people around me live forever."

So he decided to go to Yaochi.

Fang Yi wanted to see if he could obtain the ability to see situations above the "fourth dimension", so he did not fly directly to Kunlun Mountain.

…

Come to Anqing.

Fang Yi found a hotel to stay in.

"I will use my spiritual sense to search carefully later to see if there are any Taoist temples or Buddhist monasteries that meet my two requirements. If there are, I will go and break the ban. If not, I will rush to the next city tomorrow to continue."

He wasn't going to waste much time.

You can stay in a city for no more than one day.

All the way to the final destination, Kunlun.

Checking in.

Suddenly, a girl's clear voice came from behind, "Fang Yi?"

Fang Yi had already noticed the girl calling him from behind.

If I remember correctly, it should be my college classmate Chu Qing.

Although I had a crush on him during college, we only spoke a few words during those four years.

In addition, Fang Yi is now only interested in seeking eternal life and has no interest in love.

So he didn't think about saying hello to the other party just now.

Unexpectedly, Chu Qing came over and said hello.

Fang Yi turned around and smiled, "Chu Qing."

In front of me is a girl wearing a long white dress with small flowers and a pink sun hat on her head.

She has a natural oval face that looks like an internet celebrity's, and she is indeed very beautiful.

Chu Qing took off her sunglasses and said in surprise, "It's really you. I thought I recognized the wrong person."

Fang Yi kept smiling politely, "I didn't expect to meet you here."

Chu Qing blinked her big eyes and asked, "Are you coming to Anqing for tourism?"

Fang Yi thought about it and said honestly: "It's a business trip."

Chu Qing was about to speak.

The female cashier said, "Sir, your check-in procedures have been completed. Please keep your room card."

Fang Yi turned around and took the room card, "Thank you."

Chu Qing quickly said, "We haven't seen each other for a year or two. Let's have a cup of coffee together later?"

Fang Yi thought for a moment and said, "Okay, wait for me to put away my luggage."

Chu Qing agreed immediately, "Okay, I'll wait for you downstairs."

…

In the hotel, in the cafe.

Fang Yi sat by the window.

Use your magical sense to see the entire Anqing.

Search for a shrine that meets your two requirements.

Not far away at the cashier counter, Chu Qing was queuing up to buy coffee.

Anqing is not a big place, but it is also not a small place. There are quite a lot of Taoist temples and Buddhist temples.

For example, Dragon King Temple, Ksitigarbha Hall, Heavenly King Hall, Main Hall and so on.

However, apart from the Dajue Temple on Phoenix Mountain, there seems to be no other shrine that meets his requirements.

Take Shangqing Temple for example, where the Three Pure Ones, Three Realms, Three Treasures, Guanyin Bodhisattva and so on are enshrined.

Although Fang Yi's spiritual power had greatly increased after he cultivated it, he did not think that he could attack the Three Pure Ones Divine Realm.

There are some more that need not be mentioned.

It doesn't meet your conditions.

On the contrary, the Dajue Temple in Phoenix Mountain enshrines Maitreya Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva and Manjushri Bodhisattva, which slightly meets my requirements.

Of course, it's just barely compliant.

Because Maitreya Buddha is the Buddha of the future, Fang Yi guessed that his magical powers are most likely related to time, and may even touch on the aspect of lifespan.

I'll go to Dajue Temple to take a look later.

While I was thinking, Chu Qing came over with two paper cups of coffee.

She gently placed one of the cups in front of Fang Yi, and then sat down opposite him.

Fang Yi put away his consciousness and said, "Thank you. I'm sorry for the expense."

Chu Qing smiled and said, "I asked you to come out for coffee, so naturally it should be my treat, so don't be so polite to me."

"Okay, I won't be polite with you." Fang Yi said casually: "I remember that you are not from Anqing. Are you here for tourism or on a business trip like me?"

Chu Qing stretched lazily, "Well, I came to visit my little sister. I'm not used to staying at her house, so I booked a room in the hotel. I plan to go back to the Magic City tomorrow."

Fang Yi was still thinking about the matters of Dajue Temple and did not take the initiative to find a topic to talk about.

He originally thought it would be a dull occasion.

Unexpectedly, Chu Qing saw that he didn't respond, so she took the initiative to speak, "Hey, what kind of work do you do?"

After that, she drank her coffee.

Fang Yi told the truth: "Oh, I work in a Taoist temple."

"Puff!" Chu Qing spat out a spit. She quickly swallowed the coffee in her mouth, saying "sorry" and handing over a tissue. Then she asked in disbelief, "You? Are you going to be a Taoist priest?"

Fang Yi said: "Almost."

Chu Qing looked at him speechlessly, "Why did you decide to become a monk? Aren't you planning on getting married and having children?"

Fang Yi said calmly: "Being a Taoist priest does not mean that you cannot get married and have children. Only Quanzhen Taoist priests are truly ordained monks."

"Oh, I see." Chu Qing didn't quite understand this.

She asked curiously, "Is being a Taoist priest a leisurely life? Does it mean you don't have to worry about worldly matters?"

Fang Yi didn't quite understand what she meant by this, "Why do you ask?"

Chu Qing said innocently, "I used to think that monks and Taoists have such a carefree life, just eating and chanting sutras every day, so I often have an idea that if one day I get tired of living in the city, I will find a temple to become a monk."

It's really simple and cute.

Fang Yi looked at her and shook his head.

At this moment, Chu Qing's cell phone rang.

She said sorry and picked up the phone to answer it.

"Hey, Sisi... Oh, I'm in the hotel catching up with an old classmate... Where are we going? Dongyue Temple? I've never heard of this place... Oh, I know where it is."

Chu Qing hung up the phone and apologized, "My little sister asked me to pick her up to play. I'm sorry."

Fang Yi blinked and said, "Why didn't I find the Dongyue Temple in Anqing?"

Chu Qing seemed to be in a hurry to leave. She picked up her small bag and said, "Oh, Sisi said it was demolished a long time ago. It's now at Yanjiang Road Primary School. I won't tell you anymore. Contact me when you have time."

After saying this she left in a hurry.

It only took a short while to catch up with old classmates.

Fang Yi had a feeling that things and people had changed.

Although he and Chu Qing still lived on the same planet, they were like people from two different worlds.

Even when facing the girl who once had a crush on him, he didn't react at all today.

The heart is as calm as dead water.

On the contrary, Fang Yi was much more interested in the information about Dongyue Temple than in the person he had a crush on before.

If I remember correctly, the Emperor of Dongyue has the important functions of being in charge of life and death in mythology and legends.

Does this mean that if the divine domain of Emperor Dongyue still exists and the ban can be broken, it may be possible to obtain the magical power to change one's lifespan without going to Kunlun Mountain?

Fang Yi was very interested in this and decided to go and take a look later.

By the way, he could also take the opportunity to break the ban of Dongyue Temple and see how much his strength had improved after cultivating his primordial spirit.

"If I encounter a guardian deity as strong as the Four Valued Officials again, I should be able to kill him instantly, right?"

Fang Yi was still not sure about this. He would have to try to break the ban to know how much he had improved. So he decided to give it a try at Dongyue Temple.
