When Lu Qingmo returned to Xuandu Temple and left for Yujing during the day, after these two left, Zhou Qing would truly become a casual cultivator.

As for the situation of independent cultivators, everyone knows about it.

In the cultivation world, the status of a casual cultivator is lower than that of a dog, and anyone can step on them.

Resource acquisition is a problem, cultivation experience is a problem, no one to protect you is a problem, and being insecure is a problem...

The life of a casual cultivator is basically full of problems.

Zhou Qing is certainly different from normal practitioners. After all, he has a golden finger and his talent is there. If he really becomes a casual cultivator, he will be different from others and will have no problem growing up smoothly.

But the cheat code is refreshed randomly after all, and is uncontrollable.

With the assistance of the powerful golden finger and the superior real-world environment, Zhou Qing can grow at the fastest speed.

Just like the secret martial arts obtained from Bai Tian and the Heavenly Thunder and Earth Fire Seal obtained from Lu Qingmo.

These realistic things, coupled with the golden finger, pushed Zhou Qing to this point.

The two are completely complementary.

It would be stupid to ignore things in the real world just because you have the golden finger, or to ignore the help of the golden finger because the real environment is superior.

These are two legs. Zhou Qing is a normal person, so he must walk on two legs. It is impossible for him to hop on one leg.

You have two legs but you insist on cutting off one of them. Isn't this a problem with your thinking?

We must grasp it with both hands and make both hands strong.

The most important thing is the background issue.

Zhou Qing has cultivated to this level in just seven or eight months. It is so amazing that anyone with a discerning eye can tell that he has a secret.

If one has no background and really becomes a casual cultivator and wanders around by himself, it is hard to guarantee that there won't be any expert trying to harm him.

In other words, someone must be interested in him.

The true teachings of Xuandu Temple have secrets, which are completely different from the secrets of ordinary cultivators. They are completely different concepts and require different treatments.

The resources and environment that joining the sect brings to Zhou Qing are secondary. What he values ​​most is having a backer.

Like Lu Qingmo, she obtained peerless Taoist skills by chance. Even if someone in Xuandu Temple covets them, everything must be done within the rules and she cannot act recklessly.

In the end, if she didn't want to pass it on to others, then others couldn't force her.

But if a casual cultivator obtains such a legacy and the news leaks out, what will happen?

Not to mention the future, he will definitely not be able to leave the inheritance site and will be killed directly. Even if this thing is a true inheritance, someone will definitely kill him.

What qualifications do the stinky casual cultivators have to compete with us for opportunities? Therefore, Zhou Qing was not opposed to joining a big force and was willing to do so.

Looking at his many choices, Xuandu Temple can actually be said to be the best.

In Lu Qingmo's lineage, even though his master has passed away, there is still a third senior sister who is in the Yellow Springs Realm. Lu Qingmo himself can also recover with the help of the Heavenly Saint Resurrection Liquid and resume his path.

This lineage also has a certain say in Xuandu Temple. If Zhou Qing joins, he doesn't have to fight from scratch, he can directly get on this ship, and there are people in Xuandu Temple to protect him.

All these factors made him prefer to join Xuandu Temple. In that case, if he met people from Tianlongmen again in the future, they would not dare to treat Zhou Qing in the same way.

Little punk? You are the ones who are punk! After all, if you have to choose, you should choose the best. Among the ten immortal masters on the Mountain and River Common People Ranking, five are from the human race. The forces that those five belong to are the most desirable forces in today's era.

It's impossible to choose Tianmu Religion.

It would be even better if I could be accepted as a disciple by the master of Xuandu Temple...

While Zhou Qing was thinking, Lu Qingmo didn't say anything to disturb him, giving him enough time and space.

It was not until he came back to his senses that Lu Qingmo said:

"I have thought about your future for a long time and discussed it with Bai Tian many times."

"Xuan Du Temple is indeed a great place. If you take this road, it will be safer than other roads."

From a subjective point of view, Lu Qingmo certainly hopes that Zhou Qing can also join Xuandu Temple, so that both parties can be in the same place, especially after tonight.

And this is really for Zhou Qing's own good.

As for being a casual cultivator, this path was never in Lu Qingmo's consideration. If Zhou Qing really wanted to be a casual cultivator, she would definitely persuade Zhou Qing.

How foolish! She had traveled all over the place and met many independent cultivators, who basically had no future.

"With the temple master here, Xuandu Temple can provide you with protection at any time and against anyone."

There is absolutely no way that Xuandu Temple would give up a true disciple, even if there was pressure from a master from the fairyland.

The true preaching seeds are the future and the facade.

Zhou Qing nodded, "I think so too."

"but."

These two words were not said by Zhou Qing, but by Lu Qingmo.

Zhou Qing was stunned. Could there be a turn around?

"You are very special. I believe you are most aware of this." Lu Qingmo said:

"Your amazing training speed, your outstanding talent and understanding, your incredible luck, and all the abnormal things about you, such as the dream before."

"All these show that you are not simple."

"Generally speaking, there must be a reason behind your situation. Although I hope you can join Xuandu Temple, everything still depends on your own wishes."

"If you have any inconvenience, that's fine. I won't force you."

Zhou Qing thought about it for a moment and understood what Lu Qingmo meant.

This is probably because they are worried that he is the reincarnation of some powerful being, and that the moves made by the powerful might go against the will of Xuandu Temple.

In case he had a bad relationship with Xuandu Temple in his "previous life", or if he still had a sense of belonging to the forces of his "previous life", then it would not be appropriate for him to join Xuandu Temple in this life.

This made Zhou Qing feel a little helpless.

He knew that Lu Qingmo and Bai Tian had been imagining about his affairs.

He also wants to have the identity of the reincarnation of a powerful being!

"Aunt Mo, I understand what you mean, but you don't have to worry about this."

Zhou Qing smiled and said, "To be honest, I have wanted to join the organization for a long time."

"Besides, it is inevitable for me to go and pay my respects to your master. I also have to propose marriage to her."

No matter what, he must go to Xuandu Temple.

Lu Qingmo blushed and looked away, what a frivolous boy.

"So what do you mean?"

Zhou Qing did not hesitate any longer and said readily:

"If possible, I would like to give it a try to see if Xuandu Temple would accept an older disciple like me."

Relatively speaking, the best choice is right in front of him, so Zhou Qing has nothing to worry about.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

If there is a straight road to heaven, there is no need to take a winding and roundabout way.

The true teachings of Xuandu Temple and the independent cultivation... Putting these two paths together and asking people to choose is simply an insult to the former.

Who would want to be a casual cultivator and be looked down upon and despised when one can act tyrannically with the support of a top Taoist sect?

Following the Moon Goddess' loyalty, the Tianmu Sect's loyalty, and the Da Qi's loyalty, from today on, Xuandu Temple will also be loyal to me, Zhou Qing.

You know, I was born in Qi, and grew up listening to the legends of Xuandu Temple. Joining Xuandu Temple has always been my dream.

Loyalty! Sincerity! Lu Qingmo smiled happily.

"After I return, I will report your situation to the temple and finalize your admission and the true teaching assessment. I will take advantage of the fact that my master has already come out of retreat and her influence is still there..."

"In this way, even if you haven't arrived at Xuandu Temple, you have already left your name in the temple, which will be very convenient for you to enter and take the assessment after you arrive at Xuanfa Mountain."

Zhou Qing looked at Lu Qingmo in surprise when she heard this. "Aunt Mo, how did you know that I wouldn't go with you?"

Lu Qingmo smiled and said, "I know you very well."

"Since you are willing to join Xuandu Temple, whatever you want is fine."

Zhou Qing told about his plans for the short term.

"I plan to wait until the matter of the mountain god is over, and then go to Xuandu Temple after returning from Jiuyang Ruins."

He needed to wait until the matter of the mountain god was over, because Bai Tian and Bai Ruoyue would leave after that, and he would spend the last time with them in Heiyun Town.

He must look for the Heavenly Fire in the Jiuyang Ruins. As long as he can obtain another kind of yang-attributed flame, his Earth Fire Seal will be able to reach a higher level and the Hunyuan Fire will be within sight.

There is one more important thing he didn't mention, and that is the [Mysterious Treasure Chest].

The treasure chest will not be spawned in Hanzhou, so he cannot leave this month.

If he followed Lu Qingmo directly, the treasure chest would be stuck, and he would not be able to open it again for the rest of this month, which was equivalent to the golden finger being temporarily scrapped.

So he had to let Lu Qingmo go first, and then he would go to Hanzhou alone.

"You should indeed go to Jiuyang Ruins to take a look, but be careful then." Lu Qingmo nodded.

"Also, when you come to Xuandu Temple, although it is unlikely that an accident will happen given your strength, you should not be careless."

With the strength of a saint, traveling among the states would naturally be no problem, so Lu Qingmo was relieved about this.

"After daybreak, I will tell Senior Brother Jiang about your joining Xuandu Temple. He will definitely take better care of you."

"Ha, Senior Jiang is indeed very kind-hearted." Zhou Qing smiled, and then asked, "Aunt Mo, have you finished your story?"

"Almost."

"Then it's my turn." Zhou Qing said, and took out a box from the space ring and handed it to Lu Qingmo.

"That's the second thing I'm going to give you."

She took the box, a little confused, and opened it, revealing a green flower inside.

"What kind of flower is this?"

"It corresponds to the Tongyou Flower I gave you before. The effects are similar, but one can reach the depths of the soul, and the other... can reach the sky."

Lu Qingmo opened his mouth slightly and held the box tightly with his fingers, as if he was afraid that it would fall.

"Tongtian?"

Zhou Qing smiled brightly, "Yes, how about it, Aunt Mo, are you satisfied?"

Lu Qingmo shifted his gaze from the flowers and looked at Zhou Qing, his eyes full of turbulent emotions.

She knew very well how precious this flower was, but she just couldn't bring herself to refuse.

This flower was related to her master's life. If she refused it, she would be refusing the possibility for her master to continue living.

She really couldn't say the word no.

Zhou Qing stood up, walked to Lu Qingmo, and said, "Take this flower back with you. You will recover, and Master has also come out of retreat. Several good things have happened at the same time. How can there be any regrets?"

"When I arrive at Xuanfa Mountain, wouldn't it be wonderful if I had a master of the Biluo Realm to support me?"

"Aunt Mo, you know me well. I like to flatter people. When the time comes, our master will definitely dote on me very much. She will listen to everything I say and will directly betroth you to me."

Lu Qingmo put away the box silently, raised his head and looked at Zhou Qing, his eyes full of tears.

Zhou Qing moved his throat and thought, it is better not to practice the way of sages.

"Aunt Mo, it's getting late, we..."

"Um."

The night is long and I can’t sleep.
