Director Zhang thought to himself, "This young man isn't afraid of exaggerating his abilities."
Even with these people helping to carry the equipment, the crew members were exhausted after climbing the mountain for an hour, and they were all gritting their teeth and persevering.
"This mountain doesn't look very high from the outside... why is the road so long..." The makeup artist from the film crew who came with the team felt like she was about to collapse from exhaustion.
"Keep going, it's only a five-minute walk now." Mu Feng passed by with a gentle smile, carrying a light suitcase in his hand. Dao Mingzi looked at Mu Feng and immediately showed a respectful expression.
Everyone kept trying to climb higher.
Just as Director Zhang felt he was about to kneel down, the eight deadly young men beside him finally stopped. They looked at each other, then looked at Daomingzi and nodded.
The next moment, Daomingzi pointed his right hand into a sword-like gesture towards the sky and roared, "Sword Cry!"
The crew members, exhausted like dogs, suddenly felt something blindingly bright flashing in front of them. When they looked up, they were almost scared to death.
Suddenly, a bright light shot out from Daomingzi's shoulder and back, soaring and circling in the air. Its gleaming cold light clearly indicated that it was a sword!
Most of the crew members trembled and sat down on the ground. Director Zhang even instinctively pulled up Dao Mingzi's clothes to look inside, saying, "Holy crap, this special effect is so cool! How did they manage to get no bloody holes in the clothes?"
Daomingzi, who was striking a cool pose, was immediately thrown off balance, and the flying sword in the sky also began to sway and twist as if it were airsick. Mu Feng almost burst out laughing.
Just as Daomingzi was being sexually assaulted, a large area of space on the upper half of the mountain, which stretched straight to the sky, suddenly rippled. When the ripples stopped, a huge palace complex appeared on the previously barren mountaintop. The palaces were ornately decorated, well-arranged, and grand and ancient. Clouds and mist swirled around the platform, making it look like a fairyland. In the very center of the palace complex, there was a towering mountain peak that reached into the clouds, as sharp and precipitous as a sword pointing straight to the sky.
The moment this wondrous sight appeared, three men and women, dressed in ancient light blue robes, their garments fluttering, their faces dignified, and exuding a powerful aura of swordsmanship, each riding a flying sword, stood on either side of the group. They bowed and clasped their hands in unison to Dao Mingzi, who was standing at the front of the line: "Yun Qingzi/Yun Jianzi/Yi Xuanzi respectfully welcome Junior Uncle/Junior Grand Uncle back to the mountain!"
A moment later, Director Zhang, who had been staring blankly at the dramatic change before him, finally came to his senses. He released his grip in shock, pointing at Daomingzi and stammering, unable to speak: "You you you you you..."
Dao Mingzi straightened his clothes, smiled and bowed: "I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Dao Mingzi, the seventeenth generation disciple of the Shushan Sword Sect, and the third generation disciple after the sect leader. Our Shushan Sword Sect takes the Daoist name of Heaven, Earth, Dao, Cloud, Easy Sword as our Daoist name. The disciples who came with me to receive you are of the Yun generation, and these three are the mountain-guarding disciples, of the Yun and Yi generations respectively."
"After our sect leader and grandmaster discussed this matter with Mr. Long, we would like to ask you all to do us the favor of making a TV series for us. This time, the Shushan Sword Sect, Kunlun Sect, Piaomiao Palace, Xiaoyao Sect, Maoshan Sect from the cultivation world, as well as the Fox Demon King, Azure Dragon King, Roc King, Tiger Demon King from the demon realm, and the Blood Fiend Sect, Lotus Sect, and Ten Thousand Demon Sect from the demonic sects, will all actively cooperate. We can provide whatever kind of people you need."
Director Zhang stood there dumbfounded, expressionless. After his brain finally processed all the information, he reached out and tightly grasped Daomingzi's hand: "Great Immortal..."
Mu Feng couldn't help but burst out laughing again.
Director Zhang was completely absorbed in the moment and excitedly asked, "Do you think I can cultivate Taoism?"
Michiko coughed somewhat awkwardly, "Well... your decision to stay or leave is up to your boss, so we can't make that decision..."
Director Zhang was bewildered. He didn't remember ever encountering an old beggar who claimed to be exceptionally talented and destined to save the world. Just today, when he went out, Ye Tan mysteriously told him that he had struck it lucky and that the Long family would reward him if the film was completed successfully.
Finally, these excited staff members were carried away by the Shushan sword immortals one by one on their swords and flown into the Shushan Sword Sect.
Then Director Zhang learned something else.
"Michiko, how old do you think you are this year?!"
Despite looking as young as a middle school student, Daomingzi remained as shy as ever: "I am unworthy; after four hundred years of arduous cultivation, I have only reached the stage of sword light nurturing the body."
"..."
Director Zhang finally fainted.
The cultivation world is making an epic blockbuster, but the Shu Mountain Sword Sect doesn't want to participate. As a result, they are blocked at their doorstep by the leaders of various sects. The leader's newly bought villa in the city has its roof collapsed by the Tiger Demon King sitting on it in the middle of the night. In the end, they have no choice but to search for historical records in the past where everyone has appeared, together with the other cultivators.
The war to exterminate demons... that won't do. Society is harmonious now, and the demonic path has found a way to cultivate without changing one's mindset. Right now, the demonic path and the righteous path are just two branches: one cultivates faster and has higher combat power, and the other can develop in a more diversified way. The cultivation world is currently in a honeymoon period, and talking about this will have a bad influence.
The battle to slay demons... that's even worse! Strange, why does their ancestor have such a strong killing intent?
An immortal has descended to earth... That's great, but where can we find such an immortal?
The leaders of each sect began to rack their brains.
Finally, the Confucian Taoist Master waved his hand, brimming with pride: "Hey! If we're going to make a film, let's make a modern cultivation story! Modern people are tired of the usual immortal-demon wars and love-hate relationships. We want to show the world that our cultivation world is keeping up with the times!"
So, Long Xun, who was far away at the bottom of the sea, sponsored a TV series about a naive young Taoist priest who was sent down the mountain to experience the world. And that's how the TV series started filming.
