"The fifth master?" Ji Ning was astonished, "Me?"
The black cows eyes were filled with a smile as it strolled over, its figure faintly having a hint of illusion, after all it wasnt a physical body but the spirit of a magic treasure.
"Of course its you." Black Ox.
"I didnt mean that, what I meant was... am I just the fifth master?" Ji Ning asked in a row, "Isnt Yun Hua Xianren the first one?"
I once found a letter wrapped in mulberry bark, judging from which, after the death of Xian Huashan, this fairy mansion should not have been passed on to anyone.
"Jiuhua Xianren is the third master of this immortal mansion." said the black old cow.
"Who is the fourth one?" Ji Ning asked.
The eyes of the black old cow had a hint of nostalgia, and he slowly said: "In those years, the fame of the Huahua Xianren was far-reaching, and in the Great Xia Dynasty, it was also an existence standing at the peak. The scattered immortals can live for millions of years, which is simply a miracle. The three disasters and nine calamities of the cultivators are more terrifying than one another, he has lived too long, and the calamity has reached a very frightening level. Even the heavenly immortals may not be able to withstand it. The longer he lives, the more the Great Xia Dynasty knows about his terror."
"Jiuhua Xianren also knew that his days were numbered, so he wanted to take in a disciple and spread the news... Must be a divine demon cultivator, at least a congenital spiritual being, and at most only a Zifu repairman. At that time, some major tribes of the Great Xia Dynasty, as long as they had some connection with the news, would send their clan children to rush through that corridor."
"Two corridors, one is for innate spiritual souls to venture out. One is for Zifu cultivators to venture out."
"One by one, young people died, and finally a Zifu disciple named Liezhan passed the three tests in the corridor, and Liezhan became the fourth master of this immortal mansion."
Ji Ning nodded.
Jiuhua Xianren was the third generation.
Lei Zhan is the fourth generation.
"What a pity." The black old cow shook its head, "Under the endless three calamities and nine tribulations, the Huahua Immortal finally died. Not long after Huahua Immortals death... at that time, Leidian, who was only in the realm of Wanxiang Dao, also died. As for how he died or where he died, it is not clear. Since Leidians death, this immortal mansion has never had a master again."
Ji Ning nodded, then looked puzzled: "Didnt Lai Zhan bring his immortal mansion with him?"
"Carry it with him?" The black ox said in a low voice, "He cant even fully refine the immortal mansion, how can he carry it?"
"He is a grand Daoist of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, yet he cant even refine it?" Ji Ning pressed on.
"Hei Se Lao Niu said: Little doll, dont underestimate this immortal mansion. The origin of this immortal mansion is extraordinary, and the refinement is also particularly difficult. You should know that the more powerful a treasure is, the harder it is to refine. This immortal mansion actually belongs to the category of cave treasures... Only by becoming a Yuan Shen True Person can one barely refine and carry it with them."
"The Yuanshen True Person is only barely able to refine and cultivate, but still cannot fully control the Xianfu. Some secret places within the Xianfu remain inaccessible. One must become a Di Xian or a San Xian in order to truly control this Xianfu."
Ji Ning understood and nodded in agreement. It was indeed strange that a treasure that could directly move people through space would be easy to refine.
"Little doll, you understand the extraordinary nature of this immortal mansion now, dont you?" The black old cow said with a self-satisfied tone.
"Seniors can call me Ji Ning," said Ji Ning.
"Ji Ning little doll." The black old cow stepped on the giant mat on the ground, "Take another look at this mat, each of these mats is hundreds of feet in size, what do you think they are?"
Ji Ning thought for a moment and said, "Senior, when I first arrived at this grand hall, I was also very puzzled. The mansion of an immortal wouldnt need to use such a large futon unless...I suspected that this immortals residence must have once been occupied by a group of giants or some other alien tribe."
"Jiuhua Immortal, although just a loose immortal, also took hundreds of millions of years to die." The old black cow sighed, "Loose immortals who can live for so long, I only know Jiuhua Immortal! Why was Jiuhua Immortal able to be so formidable, why could he last so long before dying? Its because of this - the immortal mansion!"
"This fairy mansion has existed for ages, and according to Xiu Huas speculation, this place was originally the cave of a powerful demon god, so it was built on such a grand scale. The couches, beds, corridors, etc. were all made so huge." said the black old cow, "Xiu Hua fairy was young when he broke through the three passes and became the third master of this place."
"Jiuhua Xianren also broke through the three passes?" Ji Ning was shocked.
Hei Se Lao Niu said: "This Chu San Guan... was set by the first master of Xian Fu! That first master should be an extremely powerful god-demon. Looking at the arrangement of the futon in the main hall, this god-demon lectured above, and below there must have been many god-demons listening to the lecture. Haha, these are all things of the past, the era of the gods has already passed."
……
Hei Se Lao Niu and Ji Ning were chatting, they talked for a long time.
Ji Ning finally couldnt help but ask: "Now that Ive become the fifth master of this immortal estate, what benefits will I gain?"
The old black cow blinked its eyes.
"Jiuhua Xianren is a loose immortal who has lived for millions of years, shouldnt he have left something behind?" Ji Ning continued to ask.
The black old cow continues to be silent.
"You..."
"Alas!" The black old cow finally sighed, "The third master and the fourth master are both dead, they died too long ago. When Xī Huá Xiān Rén (a celestial being) gave some precious objects to Lěi Zhǎn, but Lěi Zhǎn died outside, endless years have passed, you wont be able to get any benefits from Lěi Zhǎn now. Xī Huá Xiān Rén left behind some magical treasures in the immortal mansion, but you cant take them now."
"How cant I get it?" Ji Ning asked, "Am I not the master of the immortal mansion?"
The black old cow shook its head: "You are the master of a storage treasure, but you cant refine it. Can you get the treasure? This immortal mansion is a cave-type treasure, and if you dont refine it, many places cant be entered. Now you can only stay in this main hall, and you cant enter any other place."
"Only within this great hall?" Ji Ning asked in surprise.
"You should have discovered just now that you can only enter the Grand Hall, and cannot enter other places in the Immortal Mansion." The black cow said, "You must first become a Purple Mansion cultivator to refine a token of faith. After refining the token of faith, there will be many benefits, and you can enter many places within the Immortal Mansion, and you can also actively enter the Immortal Mansion from the outside world, for example, you can enter the Immortal Mansion at any time from the Winged Snake Lake."
Bang!
A deep gray token suddenly appeared out of thin air and fell straight down to the ground, crashing onto the cushion with a loud noise.
"This is the token of trust." The black ox said, "Only those who have been masters can get the token of trust. Youd better pick it up quickly and refine it when you become a purple mansion cultivator. After refining it, come to the immortal mansion again. Now you cant enter any place or get any benefits."
Ji Ning picked up this token.
The token was very rough, with an ancient and complex character on it - right! Only one word, although Ji Ning had never learned this word before, but when he saw it, he naturally understood.
"Seal token?" Ji Ning stored it in his own storage treasure.
"Alright. Youve received the token, and Ive told you everything. You can leave now." The black ox said, "Ill send you off, directly relocating you back to the Winged Snake Lake Island."
"Stop!" Ji Ning shouted repeatedly.
The black old cow looked at Ji Ning: "Is there anything else?"
"Is that it... letting me go?" Ji Ning couldnt help but say, "I risked my life to get in here, and now Im just going to leave with a single token of trust?"
The black old cow blinked twice: "Who made the previous masters all dead? If they were alive, they would probably be able to point you in the right direction and help you. But Im just a treasure spirit... I dont have any magical treasures or objects. You also have your own cultivation method, the Red Bright Nine Heaven Chart is the number one cultivation method of the divine demons, even better than the cultivation method of the Empress Nuwa. What else can I give you? Woe! You probably dont have a visualization technique, do you?"
"Whats the method of visualization?" Ji Ning was taken aback.
At first, Cui Fuke transmitted his own method of visualization, "The Nüwa Diagram"!
"The method of visualization is a technique that can condense and strengthen ones soul." The black old cow continued, "This is a top-notch method that only exists within the largest tribes. Ill just recall one method of visualization and pass it on to you."
"Whats going on?" Ji Ning asked curiously.
"Take up your brush and ink." The old black cow urged.
Ji Ning flipped his hand and took out a brush, inkstone and a large piece of sheepskin, and even volunteered to grind the ink on the side.
The black old cow looked at the brush, and the brush floated up directly: "I have a magic treasure of spirit, cultivated for endless years, but my divine thought is not as strong as yours. However, its not difficult to grasp a brush." Controlling the brush with ink, he started painting on the smooth sheepskin paper, and soon a Buddha with a sad face appeared on the paper.
This Buddha has the sun and moon hanging behind it, emitting endless light.
Ji Ning felt a slight stir in his heart as soon as he saw it.
"Hows that?" The black cow casually controlled the brush and threw it to one side, proudly saying, "This is indeed a portrait of the Buddha himself, namely the Sun Moon Light Buddha! Inner Observation of the Sun Moon Light Buddha was the method of visualization used by the immortal Huahua back then. I watched the Buddhas portrait every day, so naturally I remembered it. Although the painting may not be as good as the original, if you constantly visualize this Buddha image...you will definitely be able to condense your soul."
"Inner Observation of Buddha?"
"Those who can achieve great things, their bodies and external appearances all contain the profound mysteries of the Great Way." said Hei Se Lao Niu.
Ji Nings heart was filled with helplessness, and he compared it to the picture of Nüwa... The difference was unknown. His own picture of Nüwa was directly imprinted on his soul memory by Lord Cui himself, so it was naturally more vivid and clear. This old cow had only painted a Buddha image based on his memory.
"Could it be that you have a method of introspection?" The black old cow discovered that Ji Ning was not excited, and nodded involuntarily, "Thats right, with your strong soul, you should have a method of introspection. Hmm..."
The old black cow is deep in thought.
Ji Ning was also waiting.
This old cow is a strong and precious spirit, following the immortal Xianren for endless years, it should understand a lot.
"I remember, didnt you control thousands of magic treasures before? I have a sword array secret technique that should suit you." The black old cow suddenly thought and said, "In the past, when Xie Hua immortal killed a great enemy, that great enemy was using a large number of flying swords to set up a big array against his enemies. Xie Hua immortal also obtained that sword array method, and at that time, Xie Hua immortal carefully studied it. Although I only took a look, I remembered everything. Let me copy it for you."
Ji Ning took out a large number of animal hides.
The black old cow is manipulating the fur, starting to write with big strokes.
The top of the fur is a four-character title - "Small Thousand Swords Array"!
