The villain is right beside me

After the speech, the crowd took a long time to disperse. Almost everyone was excited, and the effect was better than Mu Qing expected.

"I didn't expect it, my good disciple. How did you come up with the theory of the Three Realms? It's really heroic." Yunxi said admiringly.

"It's just a trivial skill, not worth mentioning." Mu Qing said modestly.

"This is how a person's life should be spent... It's unprecedented and really wonderful..." Yunxi is still savoring the experience.

After the joke, Yunxi continued: "What are you going to do next?"

"First, preaching and teaching, maintaining faith; second, collecting taxes." Mu Qing said: "They should not think that they can be lazy and idle after joining our sect. In order to practice serving the people, they need to pay taxes, dig spiritual stones, lay spiritual fields, and use magic to help the people, so that more people can join us. What we give to mortals is just a bowl of porridge and a meal."

"If this continues, a virtuous cycle will be formed. Immortal cultivators will no longer just hide in the mountains and forests to practice, but will help many mortals and make them realize that there is a conscientious sect like us. Our immortal cultivators are the people's soldiers."

Yunxi said: "But even if we dig up more spirit stones, the more people they need to practice, the less they will be enough."

"So I asked you to find the materials for me. I have already refined a spirit gathering array, which produces spirit stones on a regular basis every day." Mu Qing said, "Have you noticed that although there is not much spiritual energy on Longquan Mountain, it always appears continuously. I checked it many times, and finally locked on... this!"

Mu Qing pointed to an ancient wellhead.

Yunxi renovated the entire mountain gate and did not find anything different inside.

Now taking a closer look, Yunxi could sense with his spiritual sense that spiritual energy was continuously emanating from it.

The two of them jumped into the well at the same time. The bottom of the well was very large, about three cubic meters of space, but there was nothing.

Mu Qing swam all the way to the bottom, gathering spiritual power in his eyes. He could see clearly some things under the water. He dived about a hundred meters. The space around him became larger and larger. This temple was built on the hillside, so it should be the water from the mountain.

Mu Qing felt that the whole water was filled with spiritual energy. It was very subtle at first, but gradually when the two of them dived to the bottom, they saw a wall with a radius of four meters in front of them. There was only one entrance, which was half a meter wide. It would be difficult to get in.

Mu Qing stared at the entrance of the cave. It seemed that the water source came from here. This cave should have been dug by humans, and spring water gushed out here.

Mu Qing took out a moonstone and threw it into the cave. The soft white moonlight flickered a few times in the cave and then disappeared.

It looks quite deep.

Mu Qing hurriedly took out a sword and slashed it on the stone wall. With a clang, a crack was created like cutting tofu.

After a few more chops, the entrance of the cave gradually became larger, so Mu Qing crawled into the cave, cleared the way in front, and swam inside by clinging to the walls with his hands. Slowly, the entrance of the cave became larger and larger, and it seemed to be two meters wide, and one could even stand inside.

Finally, Mu Qing saw the light. There was the moonstone he dropped at the bottom of the water, and the water surface was right in front of him. After Mu Qing took the moonstone, he quickly stuck his head out and stretched out his hands to splash around. He saw a huge cave in front of him.

What caught Mu Qing's attention was that there was a stalactite in front of him, slowly dripping a drop of milky white water. The water fell into the full puddle and overflowed a little.

Yunxi also emerged from the water and saw the milky white water in front of him emitting a strong vitality. He was surprised and said, "Could this be... the spring of vitality!"

"What! It is said that just one drop of this spring of vitality water can restore life and recovery of cultivation!" Mu Qing was shocked. This was a huge opportunity!

Generally speaking, spiritual springs are born from the tempering of the earth. The earth is thick and carries all things, giving birth to life. A spiritual spring is a treasure of heaven and earth that is hard to come by for a cultivator. When a spiritual spring is squeezed by the earth for thousands of years, a trace of vitality will appear, nourishing all things in nature, and it is called a spring of vitality.

The reason why the Life Spring Water is so precious is that it is a treasure of creation second only to the magic medicine. Just a drop of the Life Spring Water can save you and restore your vitality no matter how serious your injury is, as long as you still have a breath.

Yunxi looked at the stalactites with a hint of wonder in his eyes. He walked forward and took a closer look at the spring water in the puddle. The milky white water droplets had a faint hint of green under the light.

"Could it be..." Yunxi took out a piece of sharp jade, controlled his spiritual power, and carefully dug a small hole in the center of the stalactite. Surprisingly, the inside was hollow, and the stone no longer emitted a pure white light, but gradually turned green, and even had a bit of emerald color.

"Hahaha! It's true! This is the Fountain of Life! The Fountain of Life that hasn't appeared in tens of millions of years!"

When Mu Qing heard her voice, he cried out in surprise: "It is said that this is the Fountain of Life that can bring back the dead to life! Then... what's below is..."

"Well, it should be the filtered life-giving spring water." Yunxi felt it was such a waste, so he collected all the spring water flowing around the pool into a jade bottle.

"What kind of opportunity is this? I can actually get the Spring of Life here." Mu Qing sighed. The Spring of Life is a treasure second only to the magic medicine. But speaking of it, he himself has swallowed two kinds of magic medicine.

Yunxi put all the life spring water into the jade, and only stopped when she saw that it was empty. She couldn't bear to leave this rare gift to others.

"Here, take them." Yunxi stuffed several bottles of vitality spring water and life spring water into Mu Qing's hands.

Mu Qing shook his head and wanted to say something, but Yunxi was reluctant to keep it all for himself. This good thing would definitely be of great use.

Mu Qing still accepted it. At this time, Lao Wang’s voice had not been heard for a long time.

"Wait, dig a little deeper, maybe there's something good here."

Mu Qing was startled, a greedy look appeared on his face. He moved one centimeter above the stalactite without hesitation. He drew a circle with the jade and suddenly inserted it down. With a flick of his wrist, a large square stone in the center was lifted up. Mu Qing suddenly felt that the feel was different this time. He looked at it carefully and was shocked.

What was worn on the tip of the jade was actually a small piece of milky white liquid-like substance, but it was very sticky and emitted a glittering light, as if countless starlight was hidden inside and was constantly flickering. It looked like the size of a palm, and it seemed to have removed the pressure on its body, as if it had just woken up from a dream, and was slowly wriggling, sometimes in a long strip, sometimes in a circle, and sometimes in a polygonal shape...

As it squirms, waves of wonderful fragrance emanate from it.

"This is... bring it here so I can see it!" Yunxi said anxiously, "Good boy, this is a great blessing!"

Mu Qing smiled and asked directly: "What is this?"

"This is the Creation Ointment! The jade paste may exist in the shape of water flow, or in the shape of fire... but in its root, it is all jade! It is the spiritual jade between heaven and earth. At a wonderful moment, it suddenly merged into one with a certain spiritual medicine beside it, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and the moon, turning decay into magic, and that is how it was formed." Yunxi said excitedly.

"I heard that the Creation Ointment can truly reshape the body and transform it to achieve a higher physique!"

Mu Qing suddenly realized that this could be used by Lao Wang to reshape a new body.

"Put it in quickly!" Yunxi shouted hurriedly, "Put it in cold jade!" As she spoke, she took out a cold jade box made of ice crystal.

"Is this the Creation Cream?" Mu Qing looked at this strange thing curiously.

Yunxi was obviously very excited, and said in a trembling voice: "It's a big profit! This is a really good thing!!!"

"Yes, yes, it's a good thing." Mu Qing even sealed it with a talisman.

Yunxi chuckled and said, "I advise you not to let anyone know about this kind of treasure."

"You understand, it's a crime to possess a treasure?"

"This kind of holy medicine that can change your aptitude is hard to come by in the history. I didn't expect that you would be so blessed today. What a pity. If you could get another magical medicine and take it together, I'm afraid you would be able to change your aptitude and become an acquired heavenly immortal root of good fortune." Yunxi said with regret: "I have already swallowed one, and I have become an acquired nirvana body. However, I originally had an innate heavenly phoenix immortal root, so I don't need to transform my physique now."

"Immortal roots... hehe." Mu Qing said: "I have never felt that the existence of immortal roots has any meaning. If immortal roots can really easily determine your future, then what is the point of those mortals with bad talents existing."

Yunxi was stunned.

"Qualifications don't determine everything." Mu Qing said, "Talent can indeed determine how high your starting point is, and there is nothing wrong with that. But if you think that talent has determined how high your ceiling is, you will never be able to go further and will eventually be trapped in a vicious cycle of shackles."

“What limits a person’s strength is never talent. Even those who are born with talent may die halfway. What really limits your strength is your heart, your narrow-minded heart.”

"Only by being strong and immortal, and tempered in the midst of fire and sword, can one go further."

"Yeah, that's right." Yunxi laughed with relief.

……

The Cang Qiong Dao Sect is nominally a sect for cultivating immortals, but it is no different from Buddhism. The real difference is that the monks in the sect are really doing good deeds.

They helped the mortals to reclaim wasteland and plant spiritual plants, and the mortals readily agreed. All they had to do was work hard, and in return they received the missionary spirit baptism of the monks, as well as white porridge and steamed buns for three meals a day.

For those poor mortals who are used to living a hard life, this is simply the New Year!

There are also many people who wish to cultivate immortality, but the sects require an examination, and the content of the examination is the understanding of the sect's teachings, as well as faith, cognition, character and other factors.

What Mu Qing wants to create is a world where, through spiritual awakening, he can lead ordinary people to open up new paths and create a harmonious world and a well-off family that belongs to everyone.

The faith he spread was so popular that even the emperor was obsessed with it.

During this period, Mu Qing also spread the core ideas of the sages of all ages through preaching, such as Lao Tzu's "ruling by doing nothing", Confucianism's "people are more important than the king", and the "unity of knowledge and action" of the School of Mind.

I believe that in the near future, the whole world will undergo reforms again and again, and even experience industrial revolutions, etc., but no matter how the reforms are, the core premise of the revolution will always be these immortal ideas. Like a bright star, shining brightly.

It spread from big cities to small counties and villages, and from poor areas to the entire aristocratic circle. For a time, within just one month, the Dalu Dynasty was undergoing a groundbreaking change, and this change had even affected the surrounding kingdoms.

The pastor only did the missionary work, and the rest was left to his subordinates to do, recruit believers, enroll students, and promote the correct ideology and spirit...

He was focused and opened a cave behind Longquan Mountain to continue his cultivation.
