infodatos Chapter 73 Six Ears, do you think I dare to accept you as my disciple?
Chapter 73 Six Ears, do you think I dare to accept you as my disciple?
Then, Niu Ben turned his gaze and looked down at Liu Er, who was kneeling.
Although Liu Er was in a sorry state, his whole body still exuded a Daoist aura, clearly indicating that he was exceptionally gifted.
What's even more remarkable is Liu Er's unwavering devotion to the Dao, which has remained unchanged through countless tribulations.
When Liu Er saw Niu Ben looking at him, his heart jumped into his throat.
He naturally hoped that Niu Ben would accept him.
After a long silence, Niu Ben said calmly:
As the saying goes, "The secrets of the law are not passed on to six ears."
"Six Ears, do you think I would dare to accept you as my disciple?"
Although Niu Ben saved Liu Er's life, this technique was not to be passed on to Liu Er, which was equivalent to a decree issued by Hongjun Daozu.
Who dares to disobey?
Upon hearing Niu Ben's words, Liu Er trembled all over, and his six golden ears drooped down instantly.
He had heard the saying "the secrets of the law should not be passed on to six ears" countless times.
Throughout these endless years, he has visited countless blessed lands of immortals and knelt before the gates of numerous immortal caves, seeking enlightenment.
Unfortunately, they were all ultimately shut out by the saying, "The secrets of the art cannot be passed on to six ears."
He originally thought that Niu Ben saving him would be a huge opportunity.
Everything will change if Niu Ben takes him in.
Who would have thought that Niu Ben wouldn't dare to go against anything here.
Liu Er was born with six ears, enabling him to hear the voices of all things in the three realms.
Back when Hongjun, the Dao Ancestor, was preaching in Zixiao Palace, he used this supernatural power to eavesdrop on the true words of the Great Dao.
As a result, his path of cultivation was cut off by the Taoist patriarch's saying, "The Dharma shall not be transmitted to six ears."
After a slight pause, a hint of disappointment flashed in Liu Er's eyes as he looked up at Niu Ben.
"I understand!"
"After all, these are the words of the Dao Ancestor, and no one in this primordial world would dare to disobey them."
As he spoke, Liu Er lowered his head bitterly, the golden light in his eyes dimming.
Niu Ben glanced down at Liu Er and could tell that Liu Er looked dejected after he rejected her.
However, there was nothing he could do.
After all, this was the decree of the Ancestral Master Hongyun.
If he were to disobey, the consequences would be far beyond what he could bear in his current state.
After a slight pause, Niu Ben changed the subject and said:
"Six Ears".
"Although I cannot accept you."
"but……"
At this point, Niu Ben paused slightly.
"Um?"
Upon hearing Niu Ben's words, Liu Er, who had been drooping his head, immediately perked up and raised his head again.
"Senior, but what is it?"
Liu Er stared intently at Niu Ben, his eyes gleaming.
Niu Ben didn't waste any time and said calmly:
"I am about to head to Buzhou Mountain and need someone to guide me."
As soon as Niu Ben said those words, Liu Er immediately understood, and his six golden ears stood up with a "whoosh".
He naturally understood Niu Ben's unspoken meaning: they needed to find someone with a unique and unpredictable terrain like Buzhou Mountain to be their guide.
After a slight pause, hope rekindled in Liu Er's eyes, and he quickly said:
"Senior! I frequently roam Mount Buzhou and know its paths like the back of my hand!"
"If you don't mind, senior, I'd be happy to show you the way!"
Niu Ben nodded, not refusing, and said softly:
"Get up!"
"good!"
Liu Er was so excited that he quickly stood up from the ground.
Seeing this, Niu Ben waved his hand lightly, and a golden pill immediately floated down in front of Liu Er.
"Take this pill; it will help you recover from your injuries."
"Thank you so much, senior!"
Liu Er said gratefully, and quickly reached out to take the pill and swallow it.
Soon, his injuries were healed under the effect of the elixir.
"Senior, I'll show you the way!"
Six Ears said excitedly, jumping forward impatiently. His six ears twitched slightly as he carefully discerned every spiritual energy vein in the mountain.
Seeing this, Niu Ben's lips curled up slightly, revealing a satisfied smile.
Without much thought, he followed Liu Er's lead and headed forward.
……
Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Kunlun Mountain.
A weary creature with the head of a bull and the body of a human walked to the mountain gate.
As soon as the person approached, a golden light descended and blocked his path.
Immediately afterwards, a figure appeared.
The newcomer had his hair styled in two buns, wore a Taoist robe, a lotus crown, and had black hair and a kind face!
The whole thing gives off an air of otherworldly elegance.
Who else could it be but Taiyi Zhenren, a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun?
"stop!"
"What are these demonic beings doing here?"
Taiyi Zhenren asked coldly, his face serious and indifferent.
Upon seeing Taiyi Zhenren, the bull-like creature shuddered and quickly bowed respectfully before saying:
"Reporting back to the Immortal."
"I am from the Niu tribe in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."
"I have come to Kunlun Mountain to find King Niu Ben on the orders of the old clan chief."
Earlier, the Luo Tian Immortal King of the Purple Mansion Immortal Court led a large army to cultivate the Ten Thousand Mountains.
Fortunately, Niu Qing arrived in time and used his innate spiritual treasure to defeat Luo Tian Immortal King.
But Niu Qing and Niu Ba knew.
Naro Heavenly King will certainly not let this go, and will inevitably make a comeback.
At that time, the cattle tribe will likely find it difficult to resist.
For this reason, they immediately dispatched the cattle race to Kunlun Mountain to find Niu Ben.
"King Niubeng?"
"Is he... looking for Senior Brother Niu Ben?"
Taiyi Zhenren was startled when he heard what the bull-like creature said.
I originally thought he was just a minor bull demon with no particular background who wanted to seek his Dao in Kunlun Mountain.
After all, such things often happen in the Kunlun Mountains.
He was prepared to simply dismiss it.
Who knew that this bovine creature had come to find Niu Ben?
In Kunlun Mountain, Niu Ben is the senior disciple of the Sanqing Sect, with a transcendent status!
"It seems they must be a member of Senior Brother Niu Ben's clan!"
After thinking for a moment, Taiyi Zhenren took a closer look at the bull-like creature.
Immediately afterwards, his previously cold expression vanished, and he became extremely polite:
"Oh, it's Senior Brother Niu Ben's clansmen visiting!"
The bull-like creature was also surprised to see the sudden change in Taiyi Zhenren's attitude towards him.
He quickly realized that it must be because of Niu Ben.
After all, as a disciple of the Three Pure Ones, Niu Ben's status in Kunlun Mountain was extraordinary.
"Immortal, could you take me to see King Niu Ben?"
"My cattle clan has an extremely urgent matter that we urgently need to resolve with him."
The cattle creatures appeared extremely anxious as they spoke.
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Taiyi Zhenren frowned and replied:
"Unfortunately, Senior Brother Niu Ben has already left Kunlun to travel the prehistoric world."
"what?"
Upon hearing Taiyi Zhenren's reply, the bull-like creature immediately panicked.
But I never expected that I would arrive at such an inopportune time.
After a moment of stunned silence, the bull-like creature quickly regained its senses and stared directly at the Great Immortal Taiyi, asking:
"May I ask, Immortal, do you know when King Niu Ben will return?"
Taiyi Zhenren shook his head and said:
"I don't know that."
As he spoke, he glanced at himself slightly, then asked with a curious expression:
"You just said you needed to find Senior Brother Niu Ben because it was extremely urgent?"
"Could you tell me exactly what happened?"
