Seeing this scene.
Elder Jingde gratefully glanced at the sky above.
He knew very well that the ‘Serenity’ character just now was undoubtedly the work of Master Xuanqing.contemporary romance
“Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune, fellow Taoists, I’m sure you all have a lot of questions in your heart, why don’t we go to the Discussion Hall? There are some things that I, the Old Tao, need to discuss!”
Elder Jingde first bowed slightly to the Old Heavenly Master, then turned to the high-ranking members of the Taoist sect.
“Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune!”
The crowd nodded in agreement.
After what just happened, they were not only curious, but even their worldview was shaken.
Arriving at the Discussion Hall!
Elder Jingde ascended to the Celestial Master’s Throne, with the Old Heavenly Master seated beside him, followed by the Provincial Deputy Chairmen below.
Worth mentioning is.
Within the Daoist sect, the Chairmen are usually served by government officials, mainly as a nominal title, in fact, the real administration is carried out by the Deputy Chairmen, who are internal members of the Daoist sect.
“Fellow Daoist Friends, before we discuss matters, please voice your questions first!” Elder Jingde scanned the room with a serene gaze.
At his words.
The gathered Taoists looked at each other, and finally all eyes turned to the Old Heavenly Master beside Elder Jingde.
“Ahem-”
The Old Heavenly Master Qianqing coughed lightly and then asked, “Heavenly Master Jingde, you suddenly flew up several meters onto the high platform just now, and then during your speech… as well as the sudden fall of sweet dew from the sky at the end…”
“All these signs indicate, have you… cultivated the True Method?”
The hearts of the Taoists thumped wildly, and even while chanting the Serenity Spell in their hearts, they couldn’t suppress their excitement.
Faced with the expectant gaze of the crowd.
Elder Jingde nodded.
“Indeed, I have cultivated the True Method!”
Boom-
At these words, it was like a bolt from the blue, ringing in the minds of the Daoists, their newly appointed Heavenly Master had indeed cultivated the True Method.
But contrary to the excitement of the crowd, Old Heavenly Master Qianqing’s expression remained surprisingly calm and devoid of any surprise.
It seemed that the Old Heavenly Master had prior knowledge of something.
Moments later.
The crowd calmed down.
To be honest.
They had been very confused as to why the Old Heavenly Master insisted on appointing Elder Jingde as the Heavenly Master against everyone’s opposition, now they knew why.
“Heavenly Master Jingde… can you please teach us how to cultivate the True Method?”
“Yes, if this humble Taoist could cultivate the True Method today, I would gladly die tomorrow.”
“Heavenly Master, please bestow us with the method!”
The Taoists stood up one after another, deeply bowed to Elder Jingde, their voices full of emotion.
Seeing this scene.
Elder Jingde waved his hand and said solemnly: “Perhaps you might be disappointed. The inability to cultivate the True Method is unrelated to the cultivation techniques. That I was able to do so is due to the Palace Lord’s blessings.”
“Upon my inauguration as Heavenly Master, I have also secured some benefits for fellow Daoists. Each of you can receive two life extension pills!”
Life Extension Pills?
The crowd was taken aback for a moment, then some of the elder Taoists serving in the government seemed to have caught on to something.
“Heavenly Master Jingde, are the Life Extension Pills you mentioned related to the sudden improvement in the health of the Old Heavenly Master and the elderly in Jinghai..?”
An elder Taoist practicing the ‘medical’ way asked the question. He served as an official doctor in Jinghai and had noticed some irregularities recently.
Furthermore.
A month ago, the Old Heavenly Master, who was previously having trouble with leg mobility, suddenly became spry, seemingly reverting to the vitality of his seventies. This led many Taoists to wonder if he had discovered the secret to eternal youth.
In addition to the question about Life Extension Pills,
some Taoists also noticed that in Elder Jingde’s explanation of why he was able to cultivate the True Method, it was due to the blessing of the Palace Lord.
“Heavenly Master Jingde, what is the story you spoke of regarding the Palace Lord?” asked a Taoist.
In response to this question.
Elder Jingde gave a slight smile.
“Please wait a moment, fellow Daoists. Let me first summon the envoys to distribute the Lifespan Extension Pills to everyone, and then I will explain things patiently!”
Having said that.
He stepped on the ground with his right foot and called out loudly, “May the Qingyun Envoy please make an appearance!”
As his words fell.
The originally hard stone floor seemed to turn into a marsh, slowly squirming.
Under the astonished gaze of the crowd.
A young-faced Taoist boy in a Taoist robe gradually emerged from the squirming ground!
“Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune, greetings Elder Jingde.” Huai Qingyun made a hand seal and bowed slightly.
“Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune!”
Elder Jingde returned the bow, then carefully asked, “Envoy, I implore you to distribute the Life Extension Pills to all of our Daoist brothers. As per our previous agreement, two for each person.”
Huai Qingyun nodded.
Before the crowd had a chance to react, he took out a Sumeru Bag from his bosom, using his divine thoughts to extract dozens of Life Extension Pills. Hum hum-
His divine power formed a giant hand controlling these pills, floating them around the room, leaving two in front of each elder.
“Fellow Daoists, please!” Elder Jingde gestured slightly, indicating for everyone to take the Life Extension Pills immediately.
“Thank you, Heavenly Master, thank you… Envoy!”
An elder Taoist thanked them, then picked up the two Life Extension Pills floating in front of him and swallowed them.
Seeing this.
The other Taoists also thanked them, then took the pills and swallowed.
They were not worried about anything, first of all, this kingdom is ruled by law, secondly, if they can’t even trust their own Heavenly Master, who else can they trust?
The pill melted as soon as it was swallowed.
In an instant.
The Taoists’ faces showed disbelief.
Having lived a lifetime pursuing the Taoist path, they may not have cultivated any special powers, but they knew their own conditions very well.
They had a good idea of how much lifespan they had left and when they were likely to die, they could predict it down to the ‘month’.
After swallowing the pill.
They felt an indescribable force flowing from their stomachs to their Dantian, then into their hearts, and then circulated throughout their bodies with the bloodstream.
The sensation was fascinating, even after the effects wore off, they kept their eyes closed, reminiscing in the feeling.
It was only after a while, when the sensation had completely disappeared, that they reluctantly opened their eyes.
“Hiss…Elder Taoist Liu, your eyebrows have turned black.”
“Gosh, your hair turned black too!”
“Life Extension Pills…Life Extension Pills, they truly are something else, increased the lifespan by nearly a decade.”
The Taoists excitedly discussed the changes they observed in each other.
Seeing this scene.
On the Heavenly Master’s chair.
Elder Jingde smiled, the mana gathered in his throat, as he announced, “Fellow Daoist Friends, I’m inviting you all to join the Taiji Hall.”
“Once you join the Hall, your lifespan will immediately increase by several decades, and in the future, you’ll have an opportunity to cultivate the True Method!”
“Of course, what is required in return is to comply with the arrangements made by the Taiji Hall, carry out the Reform of the Daoist Door, and worship the Main God of the Taiji Hall!”
