Chapter 1294: Chapter 1294 priest
Translator: 549690339
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, five years had pa.s.sed.
There was a city in the first region of the immortal dipper continent. From Afar, it looked like a gigantic snail. Divine might filled the air, and the sh.e.l.l on the back of the snail was all that was left of the city.
It seemed to possess gravity, so the sh.e.l.l seemed to be erect. However, to the people living in it, everything was as usual. The Sky was still the sky, and there was no difference.
In such a large city, the addition of a Daoist temple shouldn’t have attracted too much attention. After all, its scale was very small, and the Daoist temple itself was extremely important to many people.
In the immortal dipper continent, most families would send children at the right age into the Daoist temple to undergo the enlightenment of cultivation.
!!
For the immortal dipper continent, cultivation was already a normal state, just like the academy in the stone monument realm. After a certain age, the children here would go to the Daoist Temple for enlightenment.
The existence of the Taoist temple was to screen out those with good apt.i.tude and send them to higher-level sects. They would progress step by step and eventually contribute their own value to the development of the immortal dipper continent.
During this process, there were too many inspirational stories that spread continuously throughout the immortal dipper continent. Every year, children of the right age would go to various cities to go to places like the Taoist temple for enlightenment.
It could be said that the existence of Daoist temples was actually the first place that most cultivators came into contact with in their lives of cultivation.
After all, almost all the Daoist temples in the Immortal Hill continent were built by major sects, and their cultivation methods were authentic. Therefore, unless the parents themselves had a certain amount of resources and strength, otherwise, even cultivators would choose to send their own children.., into a Daoist Temple.
There were also advantages and disadvantages between Daoist temples. Everything was decided by the number of seeds cultivated. Therefore, the more famous a Daoist temple was, the more families would naturally send their children.
In this snail-like city, the Daoist Temple that appeared five years ago was naturally not too surprising. However, three years ago, among the first batch of children sent out from this Daoist Temple, there were actually dozens who had been accepted by the first sect in this territory, the reputation of this Daoist temple spread in all directions in an instant.
Every territory in the immortal dipper continent had numerous sects, and each territory had eight thousand cities. There were many people, so being accepted by the first sect showed how excellent they were. This was especially true for the first sect of this territory, which had its own annual income of disciples, there were strict requirements, so there were not many spots.
Therefore, the fact that dozens of people had been accepted at one time naturally attracted attention. This was especially true for those who had not been accepted by the first sect, who had also been accepted by the first three sects of this territory as if they had been divided up, this immediately caused a stir.
This was because this was already a record of 100% recruitment. If it were any other Daoist temple, it would be too difficult to achieve this.
There were even rumors that the cultivation seeds from this Daoist temple were originally intended to be taken by the first sect in the first region. However, the other sects were uncharacteristically red-eyed, so they split some of them up.
In comparison, what made the Daoist Temple even more famous was that one of the children from three years ago was the personal disciple of the Daoist priest of the Daoist Temple. He had actually been taken in by the supreme sect of the first region, the Xuantian sect. This caused a huge sensation, countless people were completely shocked.
Therefore, in the next two years, every year, countless families would fight to send their children into the Daoist Temple.
At the same time, more and more cultivators began to investigate the origins of the temple. The temple was very strange, and was different from the other three or five Daoist priests. There was… only one Daoist priest in the temple.
To be precise, there was only one master inside and outside the temple.
This person was known as Daoist priest w.a.n.g. No one knew his exact name. His origins were mysterious, and his cultivation base was mysterious. It seemed that everything was very mysterious, and no matter how many curious people tried to find out about him.., they were unable to find out anything about Daoist priest w.a.n.g.
It seemed like… everyone who knew about him was very secretive and wouldn’t talk about it. Even if they did talk about it occasionally, the people who heard about it chose to keep their mouths shut.
Gradually, the temple became even more mysterious.
The Daoist priest w.a.n.g who was in the mysterious temple was naturally… w.a.n.g Baole.
Five years ago, when he realized that his senior brother had been born, w.a.n.g Baole had left the lone peak and arrived in the city. He had bought a courtyard not far from his senior brother’s house and built the temple.
He understood the significance of the Daoist Temple on the immortal dipper continent. His original plan was to wait until his senior brother grew up and bring him here to personally enlighten him and teach him the dark art.
He had taken in other children as he pleased. The group of children from three years ago had been divided up by the great sect. There were countless rumors circulating, but w.a.n.g Baole knew that it was the patriarchs of the great sects who had found out about his existence, that was why… they wanted to form a good relations.h.i.+p with him.
That included the supreme great sect of the first domain, the Dark Sky sect. Their patriarch’s cultivation was already at the fourth step and was one of the nine suns in the universe. That was what he had thought as well.
Even though these things had disrupted his peace, w.a.n.g Baole didn’t pay too much attention to it. Since he had arrived on the immortal dipper continent, he didn’t refuse to leave behind some karma here.
At that moment, in the Small Dao Temple, after sending away all the children who had come here for enlightenment, w.a.n.g Baole, dressed in a Daoist robe, raised his head calmly and looked at the parasol tree outside the main entrance of the Dao Temple, the half-green and half-red leaves on the tree crown swayed in the wind, occasionally falling down. They seemed to be attracted by the Dao Temple. Many of them floated into the courtyard and spun around on the ground. They seemed unwilling to leave and gathered around w.a.n.g Baole.
w.a.n.g Baole did not look at the fallen leaves. His gaze did not change. Vaguely, he could see the family in the distance.
The cold wind blew, and not only did it bring autumn, it also brought the sound of children playing and laughing in the distance.
Listening to the sound, w.a.n.g Baole’s expression became gentler. He held the broom and gently swept the fallen leaves that had fallen into the dao college into the corner of the yard. As the broom swept across the ground, the rustling sound continued to be heard, the entire world seemed to become more and more peaceful.
A Dao charm was faintly discernible on w.a.n.g baole. It was peace and tranquility.
Days like this pa.s.sed by one after another. Autumn slowly pa.s.sed. It wasn’t until dusk, when the first snowfall fell, that w.a.n.g Baole, who was sweeping the snow in the yard, felt a surge of emotions. He raised his head.
Knocking sounds came from the entrance of the Daoist Temple. Outside the Daoist Temple, a young man and woman were holding initiation rites in their hands. They were holding onto a five-year-old boy and standing there nervously.
“Daoist priest w.a.n.g, this junior is Chen Yunluo. This is the youngest, Chen Qing. He wishes to enter the Daoist priest temple and be enlightened by the Daoist priest. I hope that the Daoist priest will grant him his wish.”As the entrance of the Daoist Temple opened, w.a.n.g Baole’s figure fell into the eyes of the family of three, the youth pulled his wife beside him and bowed deeply to w.a.n.g Baole.
Only the boy widened his eyes and looked curiously at w.a.n.g Baole. He seemed like he wanted to say something, but his father beside him glared at him and pulled him down.
w.a.n.g Baole turned sideways and avoided the boy’s bow. He stared into the boy’s eyes and revealed a warm smile. He spoke softly, and only the boy could hear his words.
“I’m very willing to enlighten you in this life.”
