Chapter 89: Chapter 88 Taihe Mountain (2nd update request for subscription)

Translator: 549690339

Taihe Mountain, the Holy Land for Taoists, was originally termed ‘unparalleled wonder since ancient times, the first fairy mountain under the heavens.’

Ever since the founding ancestor of the True Martial Sect, Ancestor Sanfeng, established his school here, Taihe Mountain and the True Martial Sect have become thoroughly merged, inseparable and interdependent.

At dawn, when the break of day pierced through layers of clouds, and the sun rose, the brilliant sunlight spread dazzling golden rays, illuminating the golden summit of the True Martial Sect.

The current sect leader, Master Qingxu, ordained by the Great Ming himself, is sitting on a jade platform, inhaling the morning sunshine’s Zi Qi.

“You’ve done a great deal of business again on Taihe Mountain.” A man in white suddenly appeared behind him and spoke.

It seemed that the Taoist Qingxu was not surprised by the appearance of the man in white. He slowly opened his eyes and asked, “What news have you received this time?”

The man in white, about forty years old, dressed in white robes, held a black folding fan in his hand. When he spoke, he unfolded his fan, on which was written, “Know all, Understand all”.

In the entire Great Ming, only one person held this fan, the so-called omniscient ‘Bai Xiaosheng.’

Bai Xiaosheng, the man in white, gently shook his folding fan and said, looking at the back of Taoist

Qingxu, “Pei Xuanjing has broken through to the second-class realm.”

An unusual look flashed in Taoist Qingxu’s eyes, then he said: “It seems that our Taoist School has produced another prodigy. Cheers are in order.”

“That’s why I said you Taihe Mountain has made a good deal again.” Bai Xiaosheng grinned, looking at the back of Taoist Qingxu, he had to admire his unscrupulous vision.

Taoist Qingxu stood, turned around, and his ordinary face wore a sunny smile: “There’s no need to consider loss or gain too closely.”

“Haha, How hypocritical.” Bai Xiaosheng scorned.

Bai Xiaosheng’s cold laughter was not unwarranted.

As the long-standing lineage of Bai Xiaosheng, they had an understanding of various forces throughout the Great Ming.

Master Sanfeng, the founder of True Martial Sect, was skilled and experienced. However, he was focused on Taoism and didn’t invest much effort in the development of the True Martial Sect. Even when he established the sect, it merely consisted of a few Taoist temples with a handful of disciples.

But looking around, on the towering Taihe Mountain, there are Nine Palaces, eight temples, thirty-six temples, seventy-two temples, and twelve pavilions, totaling thirty-three architectural clusters.

The entire Taihe Mountain, with imperial architectural rules, forms an artistic effect of “unity of heaven and man” , spanning hundreds of miles, aiming to fully reflect the Taoist concept of “Unity of

Heaven and Man”.

All these buildings were constructed by the Emperor Taizong himself after he commanded to build them as a sign of his favor and honor to the Taihe Mountain True Martial Sect.

Ever since then, every emperor after his succession had sent imperial envoys to Wudang Mountain to pay respect to Zhenwu and conduct sacrificial ceremonies.

From being a minor sect to its current status standing shoulder to shoulder with the Dragon Tiger Mountain Sect, this could not be dismissed by Taoist Qingxu’s words of “not to consider loss or gain too closely”.

If Taoist Qingxu or the True Martial Sect, in fact, was the kind of school that practiced in seclusion and despised the mundane world, where would they get the Taihe Mountain True Martial Sect today almost becoming Taoist’s ancestral courtyard?

Taoist Qingxu saw Bai Xiaosheng’s expression and simply laughed without explaining.

The Taoists have always been both worldly and unworldly. There has never been an era of the True Martial Sect, only a True Martial Sect in each era.

After so many years of development, the True Martial Sect has reached this point. They could only keep moving forward, otherwise where would they place the hard work of generations of ancestors and the disciples?

Bai Xiaosheng did not dwell on this matter too much. He said, “However, the rapid progression of Pei

Xuanjing’s martial arts is good news for us, at least the help we can get will be larger.”

“As for how to convince him, I presume you, the sect leader, already have a plan.”

Just as Pei Xuanjing had guessed, the invitation from Master Qingxu, the sect leader of the True Martial Sect to visit Taihe Mountain, was not without motive, he had his own agenda.

Or rather, it was not just Pei Xuanjing. There were many other choices, but Pei Xuanjing was the first one to stand out.

Regarding Bai Xiaosheng•s words, Taoist Qingxu nodded, “This matter benefits that person as well, and since he has already broken through to the second-class realm. It is very likely that he will step into the first-grade realm before he is thirty. Then we will be companions on the same path.”

Through the communication with Qingyang Zi, Taoist Qingxu knew more about Pei Xuanjing than Bai Xiaosheng and had some understanding of Pei Xuanjing’s character.

He knew that this was a young man devoted to martial arts. But if one day he stepped into the first-grade realm, he would definitely go looking for the next path.

And the thing they wanted to do, had no harm to Pei Xuanjing, instead, they had common interests.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded, “In that case, it all depends on you.”

The emperor’s inspection tour was not a small matter, so even though the emperor was eager to leave Tiandu, he had to make proper arrangements before he could leave.

This time was neither long nor short, neither fast nor slow. It eventually dragged on for more than three months.

During this time, Pei Xuanjing first made a copy of the skill he obtained from the Netherworld and handed it over to the Brocade Guards. After that, he completely discarded all worldly matters, focusing on refining his Taoyun.

If the previous Pei Xuanjing needed to deal with some necessary and unnecessary social interactions, after he had broken through to the second-class realm and established his supreme status with the name of a second-class martial artist from the Netherworld, he was able to avoid many, previously annoying things.

So, when he chose to retreat again, ignoring everything outside, no one, including the other editors of the Martial Academy, found it strange.

Even Vice President Qingyang Zi opened up all access to the Scripture Pavilion for Pei Xuanjing. Except for that unique work “Innate Gang Qi” , he could browse the rest of the skills without any objections from anyone else.

And even though Pei Xuanjing had closed the door to his retreat, the powers that wanted to make friends with him still sent gifts as congratulatory presents for his breakthrough and left messages, saying that they could visit him whenever he finished his seclusion.

Pei Xuanjing knew nothing about all this, but at this moment, while refining the Netherworld Book, he received some surprising information..
