Chapter 59 The Bear Monster Transmits the Dharma!
Black Wind Mountain.
The name is simple, but the scenery is truly delightful.
"Ten thousand ravines vie for flow, a thousand cliffs compete for beauty."
"Birds sing but people are nowhere to be seen; flowers fall but the trees still retain their fragrance."
"After the rain, the sky meets the green walls, and the wind blows, the pines sway, and the emerald screen unfolds."
……
Bai Suzhen nestled in Xu Xian's arms and said with a smile, "My husband is truly talented. If he were to go to the capital for the imperial examination, he might actually become the top scholar!"
Xu Xian thought to himself, "This is the original text from Journey to the West, of course it's talented."
However, he still smiled and said, "Hehe, that's right!"
After gloating for a while, Xu Xian led Bai Suzhen to the Black Wind Cave.
At this time, Black Wind Cave was like Guanyin Temple, completely inferior to the monster's cave a thousand years later.
The current Black Wind Cave is only slightly larger than the caves where bears hibernate, and can hardly be considered a mysterious place.
There was indeed a trace of demonic energy within it, roughly at the level of a dozen or twenty.
Xu Xian led Bai Suzhen into the cave, where they indeed saw a huge black bear.
It was indeed a bear monster.
Hearing a noise at the cave entrance, the bear monster raised its enormous head and saw a male and female cultivator smiling at it.
The bear monster knew that the cultivation levels of these two were far superior to its own.
Therefore, even though the two had already entered his cultivation cave, the bear monster dared not show any displeasure, and only asked with suspicion, "What brings you two immortals here?"
Bai Suzhen remained silent, while Xu Xian looked the Black Wind Cave up and down and said with a smile, "It can barely be considered a place for cultivation. The fact that you've been able to cultivate in a place like this for so long is quite remarkable."
The bear monster didn't know what the two were up to, but they didn't seem to have any ill intentions.
Xu Xian stepped forward and patted the black bear's head, leaving the bear monster even more confused.
"Immortal, I live in Black Wind Mountain and have not done any evil deeds..."
Xu Xian laughed and said, "You've misunderstood. I've come to bestow upon you a fortunate opportunity."
"Opportunity?"
The bear monster's eyes lit up.
As a wild demon in the mountains, it had no lineage and relied solely on its own exploration to cultivate.
Fortunately, it seems to be somewhat different from other monsters.
The bear monster's cultivation time was very short, and it had not yet reached the stage of human transformation.
In this Black Wind Mountain, it has already become the king and the tyrant.
Even demons at the Transformation Realm are no match for it.
The bear monster thought that its black bear roots were powerful enough to surpass the surrounding monsters.
But in reality, there were also black bears nearby that had cultivated into spirits, whose strength was still far inferior to his own.
This made the bear monster realize that it was indeed special and seemed to be favored by the heavens.
The only problem is...
The bear monster has no proper lineage and can only cultivate by figuring things out on its own.
It is extremely difficult to achieve success.
The person in front of me is actually going to give me a chance?
Could it be that……
Xu Xian wasted no time. He pressed his hand against the bear monster's head and transmitted a strange rune into the bear monster's mind.
It is precisely the Taoist classic – the Nourishing Pillow Formula!
This technique was originally only at the white level, which was no longer sufficient for the bear monster's cultivation.
After Xu Xian killed Pudu Cihang, he had a miraculous encounter.
This allowed him to have a flash of inspiration and use his 5000 points of comprehension to deduce the techniques and supernatural abilities he possessed.
This allowed Xu Xian to see through the flaws in the formula of the Nourishing Pillow and fill in the gaps.
This makes the Nourishing Pillow Method a completely blue-level practice.
Given the bear monster's current level, a blue-level cultivation technique could absolutely be called a path to heaven!
Therefore, the bear monster froze on the spot after sensing the mysterious rune in its brain.
As a creature favored by heaven and earth, the bear monster is not lacking in comprehension, yet it cannot fully comprehend the formula for nourishing the body.
Even though the bear monster only comprehended a small part of it, it understood that this technique was extremely profound and was definitely the most orthodox cultivation method.
This is an immense favor...
The bear-like monster looked at Xu Xian and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "Immortal, your great kindness is unforgettable! How can I ever repay you?"
Xu Xian looked at the bear monster with a smile, nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Become my disciple."
The bear monster became even more excited.
It could sense that Xu Xian was extremely young, yet his cultivation was far superior to its own.
He is absolutely the most orthodox Taoist disciple, practicing the profound and mysterious arts of the Heavenly Realm.
It probably won't be long before he becomes the most orthodox Great Luo True Immortal.
If one cultivates aimlessly in the mountains, even if one becomes an immortal, one will only be a Taiyi Scattered Immortal.
He can't be called Ronaldo.
Although Da Luo and Tai Yi are at the same level, the only difference is whether they have a legitimate lineage.
The problem is that, with the Heavenly Court ruling the world today, without a legitimate lineage, it is extremely difficult to achieve enlightenment.
If I could become the disciple of this celestial being, I would naturally also become a Great Immortal, and achieving enlightenment in the future would be a given.
Thinking of this, the bear monster burst into tears and kowtowed repeatedly, saying, "Master, please accept my humble disciple's bow!"
Xu Xian was extremely satisfied with the appearance of the black bear.
"Very good. Since you are my disciple, I will give you another treasure."
Xu Xian rummaged through the small space and selected a green-quality spiked club, which he then handed to the bear monster.
"You should cultivate yourself diligently in the mountains and avoid causing trouble. Remember this!"
The bear monster felt even more excited as it sensed the quality of the spiked club.
It's true that following the orthodox immortals guarantees you'll get to eat meat.
It kowtowed repeatedly, chanting words of gratitude to Xu Xian.
After a moment, the bear monster suddenly realized what was happening.
Should I practice alone, as my master has instructed?
"Master, please stay in Black Wind Mountain so that your disciple can fulfill his filial duty."
Xu Xian shook his head and said, "Our paths are different; I cannot cultivate in these mountains."
"Yes, yes, yes, it was my presumption, disciple."
The bear monster knew that Xu Xian's cultivation level far surpassed its own.
It seems that it can no longer absorb the essence of the sun and moon for cultivation.
Black Wind Mountain is indeed a good place, but it still can't satisfy my master.
The bear-like monster knelt on the ground and said, "I know that Master's cultivation is profound and he will not stay in the mountains for long, but please, Master, taste some mountain delicacies so that I can show my filial piety... Master?"
The bear monster looked up, but there was no sign of Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen.
It seems they've already left.
The bear was stunned for a moment, feeling a void in its heart.
It was originally a wild monster in the mountains, helpless and alone, and probably would be taken away by monks and Taoists one day.
Now that he has a master, Xiongpi Guai is starting to feel a sense of belonging.
But the master had already disappeared.
His master was truly like a carefree hermit, a celestial being.
However, his own cultivation level was extremely low.
"I will strive to cultivate myself and repay my master in the future!"
Thinking of this, the bear monster stopped sleeping.
Instead, he sat cross-legged in his cave, carefully analyzing the runes in his mind.
Above the clouds, Bai Suzhen looked at the black bear spirit in the cave and said with a smile, "This bear's strength is truly extraordinary. My husband has taken on a fine disciple."
Xu Xian nodded and said, "Yes, but it still lacks true supernatural powers. I'll come back to check on it in a hundred years or so."
After saying this, the two flew west together.
Xu and Bai flew very slowly, often doing things that made them happy, which was quite enjoyable.
Several days later, they passed by the Yunzhan Cave in Fuling Mountain.
This is the future training ground for Pigsy (Zhu Bajie), but at this moment, Pigsy is still Marshal Tianpeng in heaven, looking very imposing.
The Cloud Stack Cave was occupied by a level 32 or 33 monster.
Xu Xian easily killed it and gained a lot of Dao Qi.
Further on are Huangfengling and Liushahe.
At this point in time, there are no monsters here that Xu Xian would be willing to invest in.
He killed it casually and turned it into Dao Qi.
Next, we arrived at Wuzhuang Temple!
The Daoist temple of Zhenyuan Daxian, a powerful being of level 80 or above and the ancestor of earth immortals!
