To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Chapter 105 - 84: Heart Towards the Dao



On the second day, at the agreed-upon time, Lu Yuan and Sun Siwen set out on time, planning to meet up with Kong Yuzhu.

After being reminded by Sun Siwen yesterday, Lu Yuan today deliberately changed his attire. He went from wearing a white martial artist’s outfit to wearing a light blue scholar’s robe.

Moreover, with his now-perfected makeup skills, coupled with his scholarly appearance, Lu Yuan actually looked like a refined young gentleman.

If he appeared on the streets, he could definitely charm countless ladies.

However, Lu Yuan’s ambitions were no longer focused on this. Otherwise, with his talents, he could have left behind a legendary tale of chivalry and romance in Jianghu.

His appearance indeed had the desired effect.

When he met with Kong Yuzhu, the county town official looked at Lu Yuan’s refined appearance and was immediately impressed.

Without waiting for him to speak, he took the initiative to say, “This must be

Layman Lu. My name is Kong Yuzhu, and I have long admired your reputation.”

Lu Yuan’s public identity was that of a martial artist in Jianghu. According to the customs of the time, he would normally be referred to as a young master or a chivalrous hero.

However, he was now interacting with Sun Siwen, a scholar, and was currently studying the Taoist Classics. His appearance was even more like a scholar at this moment.

No matter which aspect one considered, there was no trace of his Jianghu background. On the contrary, he looked more like a scholar than the average scholar.

Therefore, Kong Yuzhu changed his original address of chivalrous hero to Layman Lu, showing a sense of closeness with the Daoist title.

Lu Yuan understood the other party’s intentions and immediately adjusted his original words, smiling and saying, “My name is Lu Yuan, nice to meet you

Kong Layman. ”

“Hahaha! ”

Kong Yuzhu was indeed very pleased with Lu Yuan’s appellation, laughing heartily and turning to Sun Siwen, saying, “Mr. Sun, I have prepared the carriage. It’s getting late, let’s hit the road.”

He did not address Sun Siwen as Mr. Sun.

Today’s purpose was not official business but rather discussing the mysteries of the Dao, so there were no officials, only laymen seeking the Dao together.

Sun Siwen also understood his meaning, following with a smile, “In that case, please lead the way, Kong Layman.”

The three of them laughed heartily and boarded the carriage together.

Qingyun View was quite far from the county town, about twenty miles away. It would take approximately half an hour to get there even by carriage.

Considering the tedious journey, Kong Yuzhu had prepared some snacks in the carriage.

The few of them sat in the carriage, enjoying the snacks and chatting.

Although they were just chatting casually, the main topic between Lu Yuan and Kong Yuzhu was about the Taoist Classics.

Originally, Kong Yuzhu thought that Lu Yuan’s interest in the Taoist Classics was limited to studying spells and stories of gods and ghosts, as this was the impression most people had of the Classics.

However, after a detailed conversation, he was pleasantly surprised to discover that Lu Layman before him actually had his own understanding of the Taoist Classics.

Although these understandings were still superficial, and there were even some errors in his basic knowledge, it was enough to confirm that he was genuinely studying and understanding the Classics. This made Kong Yuzhu feel extremely happy.

Because it proved that Lu Yuan truly had a heart towards the Dao.

For someone like Kong Yuzhu, who also had a heart towards the Dao, it was exhilarating to find a fellow Daoist.

It is said that cultivation involves Wealth, Comrades, Ways, and Places. These are the four essentials of cultivation.

Although Lu Yuan’s current understanding of the Dao was still far from reaching the level of a Daoist companion,

His desire for the Dao was commendable.

Kong Yuzhu believed that as long as he guided and cultivated Lu Yuan diligently, he could soon have another fellow Daoist.

As a result, his attitude towards Lu Yuan became increasingly respectful and amiable.

Lu Yuan also held great admiration and respect for this county official who was deeply knowledgeable in the Dao.

Because during their conversation, many of the doubts and questions he had while studying the Daoist books were answered by Kong Yuzhu in just a few words.

Even in the Replenishing Qi Heart Sutra, where the knowledge points involved in cultivation were not in the scope of Kong Yuzhu’s practice, he was still able to provide some guidance and direction.

With such an outstanding teacher, Lu Yuan even thought that there was no need for him to seek out Qi Yun Taoist and consult him about the Taoist Classics. Just learning from this County Magistrate Kong would be more than enough.

However, as much as he thought this way, he knew that Kong Yuzhu, being a government official, could not possibly have much free time to teach him, even if his position was just for show and he had to go to the Government Office on time.

To truly study the Taoist Classics, he would still have to find the real Daoist, Qi Yun Taoist.

And after receiving Kong Yuzhu’s guidance, he couldn’t help but become even more curious and expectant about Qi Yun Taoist, whom Kong Yuzhu praised and admitted to being inferior to.

Kong Layman was already so formidable.

Then, what kind of demeanor must Qi Yun Taoist have?

With such thoughts in mind, the three of them arrived at Qingyun View.

Contrary to what Lu Yuan had imagined, when they arrived, he found that the Qingyun View he had been looking forward to was just a broken temple in the mountains.

On the hillside, a low mud wall was full of pits, the main entrance was mottled, and after entering, there was a simple main hall for venerating god statues and a few small rooms next to it.

These buildings were Qingyun View.

“surpnsea, aren’t your”

Kong Yuzhu noticed the astonishment of Lu Yuan and Sun Siwen. He stroked his beard and smiled, “Actually, I was also quite surprised when I first came here. I never thought that there would be such a Daoist temple in this remote countryside.

Moreover, what amazed me even more was that in this small Daoist temple, there was a real cultivator like Qi Yun Taoist.”

But after talking with the Taoist, I gradually came to accept it.

The glitz and glamour of the world are like fleeting clouds. If you can’t attain longevity, you will turn to dust in a short few decades.

In this case, what’s the point of having more worldly possessions and wealth today?

It’s all just an illusion.

So instead of wasting time on worldly distractions, why not focus on practicing the Dao, refining elixirs, transcending the mundane world, and achieving Feathered Ascension?

When you become an Immortal, you can roam the heaven and earth, enjoying a long life. Wouldn’t that be carefree and leisurely?

Qi Yun Taoist understands this deeply, which is why he chose such a secluded and quiet place to get rid of external disturbances, commit to his heart, and practice the Dao Law.

Compared to him, I can’t let go of my worldly status and continue to waver in the official world. I’m far from his realm.”

Kong Yuzhu spoke of these things with a longing expression on his face.

Lu Yuan and Sun Siwen looked at each other and had their thoughts about it.

However, there was one thing they could see clearly.

Their best friend didn’t seem to agree with Kong Yuzhu’s ideas and beliefs.

However, people are different and have different ideals and pursuits, which was normal.

They didn’t say anything, just nodded with a smile, as if to say you’re right.

Kong Yuzhu didn’t care about that either.

Once he was in the Daoist temple, his mind drifted from focusing on Lu Yuan to this place.

As soon as he entered, he laughed and said, “Qi Yun Taoist, are you here? I, Kong Yuzhu, have come to discuss the Dao with you.”

As his words fell,

Soon, a long-bearded Daoist in a dark robe appeared, walking out from the front temple hall and approaching them..
