Chapter 723
Saturday, the day when the seal script ceremony was taught annually.
Today, Baimei Mountain looks particularly majestic. Because of the seal teaching ceremony, tourist attractions are temporarily closed, and only students from various Taoist schools and Zhenhai Conference Palace Management majors are allowed to visit.
Of course, the so-called Taoist sects of each school only include the Taoist sect of the Zhengyi Sect and do not invite the Taoist sect of the Quanzhen Sect to come.
This kind of ceremony is naturally very lively. People, even students, were wearing Taoist robes. However, everyone soon discovered a problem, that is, this year's ceremony was even more lively than usual, and there were a lot of people present. It seemed that not only the Zhengyi Taoist sect in Zhenhai City, but also the Taoist sects from other provinces and cities were attended.
Baimei Palace is second only to the three immortal mountains among the Zhengyi Taoist sects. It is one of the nine sects in the world. It is lively in the seal ceremony, and it seems reasonable to have other sects come to observe. But everyone then discovered another problem, that is, several elders and masters this year have also changed people.
Generally speaking, in addition to the masters, direct masters, and supervisors in the seal teaching ceremony, there must be masters of the altar protection, masters of Dharma protection, masters of scripture protection, masters of the sutra protection, masters of Taoism protection, masters of the Tao protection, masters of the altar protection, masters of the altar protection and other masters. These are all the great achievements of the Baimei Palace.
But today everyone discovered that Master Hushang and Master Hushang had changed people, not the same as before. The two people sitting in the hall are now very handsome.
Not only that, even the disciples of the Sutra and the disciples of the Sutra standing behind the Sutra and the disciples of the Sutra standing behind the Sutra are not from Baimei Palace.
For a moment, the crowd outside was whispering, "Why have the Master of Guardian and Master of Guardian changed people this year? I don't know very well. You can't make a mistake. Don't talk nonsense, be careful not to go to Baimeishan. Why did you suddenly change people? Even the disciples under your seat have a raw face."...
Just as these people were talking, an older Taoist priest said, "Your information is too unprofitable."
"What's going on? What news did you get? Brother Wang Dao, what's the situation?"...
"I heard that a few days ago, Yuan Zhenren, the abbot of Baimei Palace, applied for an extraordinary level of seal-up to Zhang Yu of Wudang Taoist Temple, and he had obtained approval from the Tianshi Mansion. Do you know that although there were exceptions before, it was only a first level to jump to the first level, but this time the extraordinary level of seal-up was different. It seemed that Zhang Yu's cultivation level could be upgraded to what level he could." The older Taoist priest said.
"Really and false? That Zhang Yu is the new vice president. You need to say it."... Everyone talked about it again.
Another middle-aged Taoist priest asked, "Even if he upgraded the seal scriptures, why have he even replaced the Master of the Sutra and Master of the Sutra?"
"I heard from my elders that this kind of abnormal upgrading of seal script is the first in the past twenty years. It not only requires great contributions to the Zhengyi Sect, but also requires extremely high cultivation. It is rumored that the highest record of abnormal upgrading of seal script was created by Zhang Yinling, a real person in Tianshi Mansion ninety years ago. At that time, he was only nineteen years old and was promoted to seven levels in one breath, reaching the Taoist priest of the Dadong tribe." said the older Taoist priest.
"From Chuzhen's disciple to a Taoist priest at once... wouldn't it be one level away from the ritual..." A young Taoist priest said in surprise.
"This is too exaggerated. You can upgrade to level seven at the age of nineteen. How can you practice? Who said it is not? Wait... I heard Master Wang continue to say, what does this have to do with Master Guarding Sutra and Master Guzang?"...
Sure enough, when everyone heard this, they all looked quietly and stared at the older Taoist priest. The older Taoist priest stroked his beard and said slowly: "You must know that our Taoist sect seal script is not a random promotion. One is the achievement, the second is the age, and the third is the truth, and it is indispensable. Now, the extraordinary promotion of seal script cannot be equated with ordinary seal script. It is rumored that after Zhang Zhenren's extraordinary promotion of seal script, Gezaoshan and Maoshan also successively made an extraordinary promotion of seal script. At that time, Qiu Zhenren from Gezaoshan was promoted to five levels in succession, and Xiao Zhenren from Maoshan was promoted to four levels in succession. Since then, Sanshan has reached an unwritten agreement, that is, to upgrade to the maximum of three levels in the seal script. If you want to upgrade to the fourth level, you have to show stronger skills..."
The elderly Taoist priest glanced into the hall, and then whispered: "This time, the Master of the Sutra and Master of the Huzang seem to be from Gezao Mountain and Maoshan. It is possible that even the Supervisor may be from Sanshan, and maybe they are from Tianshi Mansion."
"According to your opinion, then this time Zhang Yu has promoted the seal script this time, and he will be promoted to the third level at most?" said a Taoist priest.
"It's really good to say that, no wonder it's so lively today. So that's what happened. Think about it, the Taoist priests on Maoshan have only been promoted to level four in a row. If we have been promoted too much, wouldn't it make the fairy mountain look bad? Isn't this based on our ability? Let's go down, how can we rely on our ability?"...
The Taoist priests began to discuss again, and they could have predicted how strict this time the extraordinary seal promotion was, and it would never be possible for Zhang Yu to easily advance.
As everyone talked about it, time passed by minute by minute. Soon, the bell rang, and everyone immediately shut up. The auspicious time had arrived.
Immediately afterwards, everyone saw a row of Taoist priests coming from a distance. Two people were led by, one of them was Yuan Zhenren from Baimei Palace. Yuan Zhenren was wearing a bright yellow Taoist robe today, which looked majestic and solemn. Beside her was a quintessential Taoist priest, who was also wearing a bright yellow Taoist robe, and had an extraordinary demeanor.
Most of the Taoist priests and students watching on both sides did not know this priest, but anyone could see that this priest had a good status. Usually in Zhenhai City, the one who could be on par with Yuan Zhenren is the Zhenren of Yangchun Temple. Although Zhang Yu is also the vice president, his seniority is low, and he has to shout good when he sees Yuan Zhenren, so he cannot do this.
The person who is currently not Lu Zhenren, is obviously a high-ranking Taoist in the Three Immortal Mountains. Of course, I have seen it here, but in such occasions, no one dares to speak out again.
Behind these two, there were eight middle-aged Taoist priests wearing red Taoist robes, all of which were from the White Eyebrow Palace, and everyone knew it.
As they entered the hall, everyone's eyes also looked at them, wanting to see where they were sitting. Yuan Zhenren sat in the middle, which was the position of the Master Chuandu. Lindu was on his right hand, but there was only the chief, and the others stood behind him, and the position of the Master Guandu in his left hand was the Master Jian. The Little Taoist priest in bright yellow sat there at this moment.
"The Great Celebration of Wuliang Heavenly Lord! The seal teaching ceremony begins now!"
Yuan Zhenren's voice settled, and bells, drums, and trumpets rang out outside the hall.
From a distance, there were rows of Taoist priests walking, all of whom were wearing blue Taoist robes, which were the Taoist robes worn by the disciples of seal teaching. Of course, Zhang Yu was also among them. Although he was the vice president and the abbot of Wudang Taoist Temple, he had not taught seal teaching, so he had to follow the regulations now.
Who told you that Zhang Yu grew up too fast and was a bit over the standard?
