Chapter 757: Heart Fire Invites Guests
"It was a dream."
He walked to the window. The moon outside was not full, but in his eyes, he couldn't help but think of the fairy in his dream.
The mysterious light is perfect, and the twelve moon wheels intertwine to guard it.
He unknowingly began to practice the method of worshiping the moon and submitting to the qi. The immortal in his mind echoed with the bright moon outside the window. The waning moon seemed to fall behind the immortal's head and merge into the moon.
The moonlight is like a trickle, as if falling from the sky, as if pouring out from the bottom of the heart.
"It's not a dream—"
He finally realized that he had truly been wandering in his mind and had encountered an immortal in his dream. He was grateful that the immortal had not punished him, but instead had enlightened him on his cultivation. He wondered if he would ever encounter such a situation again, or if he would have the opportunity to visit the Golden Soul Palace again.
The Jinpo Palace was quiet and cold. The Moon Fairy was forcing a smile on her face while being complained about by the fox.
The fox looked at Xianzhen with resentment and said, "Mingfu Huzheng, I have been practicing for over a hundred years and am no longer a little fox."
Gong Mengbi just smiled and apologized: "It was just a spur of the moment, please don't be offended."
The fox was originally a prudent middle-aged man, in the prime of his life, and even when he transformed into a human form, he was definitely not cute. But after all, the fox's true appearance was like this, even if it was an old fox, it looked like it was just the right time to make people want to touch it.
Shao Huzheng didn't care, but asked: "Huzheng, are you going to accept him as your disciple?"
Gong Mengbi shook his head, then nodded and said, "It's just a matter of forming a bond. Whether it will succeed or not is still up in the air."
"Although I don't have Mingfu Huzheng's abilities, I can see that this kid is indeed a potential cultivator. Perhaps someone is trying to use the Fox Book incident to stir up trouble and enlighten him to enlightenment. However, my Fox Academy has no grudge against him, but he is using us as a pretext for nothing. It's really hateful."
"Some people want to use the Fox Book to stir up trouble and attack Fox Academy. Some people want to use this incident to transform Zhang Chengzu and develop his Dao heart. There are also people who are fanning the flames and are happy to see it happen."
"Given Mingfu Huzheng's abilities, he must have a plan in mind." Shao Huzheng had long been impressed by Gong Mengbi. This wasn't the first time he'd heard of Gong Mengbi's fame. Whether it was the goddess bestowing him with a Chinese character, compiling the Fox Book, or the imperial decree establishing the Fox Courtyard, it had all made him famous. But it was only after actually being by Gong Mengbi's side and witnessing his breadth of mind and ability that he truly connected the legend with the man himself.
"It depends on who gets restless first."
Gong Mengbi moved the Mingyue Mirror, and the light on the mirror surface flowed, and then it turned to another scene.
Shao Hu was watching it very clearly. The mirror reflected three men and two women, five people all gathered together. Judging from the scene, they were in a courtyard.
The garden was filled with interlaced rockeries and lush flowers and trees. Five young men and women had a table before them, decorated with pearls, precious stones, incense, flowers, and fruit. They lit incense and began to worship the waning moon in the sky.
After worshiping the bright moon, he began to practice the method of breathing in and out the Taiyin Qi.
While practicing together isn't taboo, and it's common for people to practice together, it's still best for beginners to practice alone. When practicing together, one's thoughts influence the other's, making it difficult to achieve tranquility.
Breathing in qi is a typical static exercise. If you cannot enter a state of tranquility, you cannot even distinguish the vital energy, so how can you talk about gathering qi and breathing in qi?
He just closed his eyes and endured, trying to get a response, to breathe in and out a trace of vital energy, so that people would know that practicing to become an immortal is not a false story.
But if any one of them were asked to take the Fox Book translation away, the others would definitely not agree, so they had to gather together to verify the contents of the translation.
Shao Huzheng laughed and sneered rudely, "Humans are more intelligent than any other creatures, but they also have the most distracting thoughts. If you want to cultivate like this, you're dreaming unless you're enlightened by a god."
What a coincidence that was that as soon as the words fell, light appeared in the bright moon mirror.
Yuan Qi is invisible to the naked eye, and in Shao Huzheng's practice, the spirit cannot be distinguished either, but in Gong Mengbi's eyes, there are traces of it.
Under the moon, vital energy gathered and seemed to be pulled and fell on the five people - this is how the so-called enlightenment from the gods came about.
Gong Mengbi laughed and said, "To come so forcefully, you clearly have ulterior motives."
Gong Mengbi stretched out his hand with a smile and blew gently. Then a ball of lively flame danced on his hand, jumping like a little fox.
These five strands of energy were barely swallowed by the Qi-swallowing method, but their chaotic thoughts had already burned through the method, burning these five strands of energy cleanly, just like Zhu Bajie eating the ginseng fruit, without tasting anything.
They are inherently evil and lustful, and only a tiny spark is needed to burn the last bit of peace and tranquility into ashes.
“Is this vitality?”
"You felt it too?"
"I feel it."
"But why didn't the Qigong method work?"
Several people became anxious and rushed to the table to translate the book, hoping to find the answer in the translation. Of course, there was no answer in the translation, but the feeling of being able to see it but not being able to touch it was like a mirage, which made people want to go crazy.
The flame in Gong Mengbi's hand gradually shrank and disappeared, but the fire in their hearts had already burned in their desires.
As his anger flared, Gong Mengbi knew that these young men had, as expected, fallen under a spell that bewitched their minds. Although their desires were already mixed, they wouldn't have acted so strangely if the spell hadn't incited their evil desires.
But at this moment, their rising desires became food for the fire in their hearts, and the spell that bewitched people was occupied by the fire in their hearts.
"I found you."
Gong Mengbi closed his eyes, used the fire in his heart to create an illusion, and activated the spell.
The Moon Mirror was quickly covered with flames, and the image in the mirror had turned into a sea of fire. When the flames surged, people had the illusion that they couldn't distinguish between water and fire.
Gong Mengbi looked at Shao Huzheng and said, "Be my guardian."
Shao Huzheng said solemnly, "We will not allow outsiders to disturb us."
Later, Gong Mengbi stepped into the Mingyue Mirror, and another illusion appeared in the sea of fire.
A waning moon hung over the courtyard. But at that moment, instead of the three men and two women, there was only Gong Mengbi standing with his hands behind his back, waiting for someone to arrive.
But after a while, someone was heard coming from outside, complaining: "What's the reason for this stupid thing, the food is already in its mouth, but it can't swallow it?"
Entering the courtyard, the rockery, flowers, trees, lights and moonlight made the shadows crisscross. The man who came was dressed in brocade and was not tall. He looked like a rather dignified old man, but when he saw Gong Mengbi in the shadows, his face was uglier than seeing a ghost.
"Why is it you!"
Gong Mengbi turned around and looked at him, and asked, "I was waiting for you. Why, do you know me?"
