Chapter 171: People who fall from heaven, ride a dragon and ascend!
【The two once traveled the world together, discussing learning and martial arts, but later parted ways due to ideological differences.】
【Liu Jinchan laughed: "This Peng Chuan is the ninth patriarch in the history of the Three Truths, which is the famous Peng Zu."】
【The most famous in the history of the Three Truths Sect are the two patriarchs; the first is the founder, the Three Truths Daoist, who has the merit of founding the sect.】
【The second is the "Peng Chuan" known as the Northern Patriarch; this person re-promoted the Three Truths Sect, making it one of the sources of Daoism and a great sect in the North.】
【Liu Jinchan laughed: "This trip around the world, the final destination was the former site of the Three Truths, the former ancestral court, and I found this 'Peng Chuan's Notes'; this book is mostly written by Patriarch Peng Chuan himself or annotated by later disciples, recording martial arts insights and many secrets of heaven and earth."】
【"It's a pity that most of it has been lost, and only a small part remains."】
【"The experience of this Patriarch Peng Chuan can be called legendary."】
【Lu Yu's interest was piqued as soon as he heard the topic of martial arts. Over the years, his martial arts realm had been raised again, reaching a height that was difficult to reach, so that when he traveled down the mountain, few people could fight him, which made him feel a bit lonely.】
【A few years ago, Lu Yu went down the mountain, and a fun thing happened; the Yuetang River near Mount Zhongnan flooded, and Lu Yu took his disciples to rescue them personally, and unexpectedly found a five-zhang big snake in the river, with two big meat buns on its head.】
【Lu Yu dragged it out of the river, and the villagers beat the big snake to death with sticks.】
【Historically, Peng Chuan also killed a flood dragon in the Yuetang River.】
【It is said that when the eighth patriarch of the Three Truths Sect was traveling in the North, he happened to see a meteor cut through the sky, and finally fell into the forest.】
【Out of curiosity, the eighth patriarch went to investigate, only to see that the trees around the big pit smashed by the meteor were destroyed, and only an infant was crying in it.】
【This scene shocked the eighth patriarch greatly; he felt compassion, so he brought the infant back to raise, not only teaching him martial arts, but also teaching him to read and understand reason.】
【After this person grew up, he followed the eighth patriarch's surname Peng, and because he was picked up in Chuan Mountain, he was named Peng Chuan.】
【Lu Yu was interested in these folk legends, but doubted their authenticity.】
【After all!】
【Now in the North, there is also a legend that when the elder brother was born, a purple star fell into the Lu family, and for a time the house was full of light, and the lotus flowers in the pond were all in full bloom.】
【Lu Yu also went to verify with his mother, but was greatly disappointed; it was all fake, nonsense, and he was laughed at by his mother.】
【Folk legends are just for fun.】
【You and Liu Jinchan don't think so.】
【Although folk legends may be mixed with many fictional and exaggerated components, in the official history of the Great Qing, the records about Patriarch Peng Chuan are certain.】
【Liu Jinchan said: "Folk legends are unreliable, but in the biography of Peng Chuan in the Great Qing, there are clear records."】
【"There was a man who fell from heaven, named Peng Chuan, who founded a sect in the North and served as the Protector of Yan City!"】
【After Peng Chuan, he served as the Protector of Yan City in the Great Qing, and later resigned and returned to the mountain.】
【"Not only in the Great Qing History, but also in many rigorous history books, there are records of the origin of this ninth patriarch of the Three Truths Sect, all of which have these three characters."】
【"Fall from heaven!"】
【"Fall from heaven", these three characters are consistent in the records about Patriarch Peng Chuan, which makes Lu Yu doubt.】
【Peng Chuan is not a person of empty wind or false praise, but a real person recorded by many classics in the long river of history, with flesh and blood, and his existence is certain.】
【Lu Yu asked jokingly: "This Patriarch Peng Chuan, is it really falling from the sky?"】
【You couldn't help but think, carefully savoring the word 'fall', initially meaning to push down the dilapidated wall with both hands, later gradually turning into falling, stumbling, the words reveal a derogatory meaning, so later words related to falling, more or less contain bad meanings.】
【It can be seen that Peng Chuan's "descending from heaven" is by no means a descent of an immortal, surrounded by flowers and light. It is not like the legend, a great figure entrusted by heaven, shouldering an extraordinary mission and descending to the world, such as the High Ancestor cutting two snakes, with seven-colored light at birth.】
【This "fall" seems to have a reluctant taste.】
【His descent is like walking by the side of the heavenly river, accidentally slipping and falling into this world.】
【People who fall from heaven!】
【Peng Chuan's end is also full of fog; it is said that he disappeared in broad daylight, riding a strange giant dragon with only a dragon head and no dragon body, in front of everyone.】
【Liu Jinchan stroked his beard and said: "It is said that this patriarch cast a large cauldron in the North, and when the cauldron was completed, a dragon hung its beard to welcome it, only the dragon head and no dragon body, Peng Chuan rode it, and the disciples all held the dragon beard, the dragon beard broke, and they all fell to death!"】
【This description depicts that Peng Chuan cast a giant cauldron in the North, and when the cauldron was completed, a miracle appeared, a mysterious creature with only a dragon head and no dragon body descended, and Peng Chuan rode it resolutely. The disciples were full of longing, trying to follow by pulling the dragon beard, but unfortunately, because the dragon beard broke, they fell from the sky and died.】
【Only Peng Chuan remained to ascend.】
【Lu Yu shook his head and didn't believe it.】
【Is there really a dragon in the world? Even if there is, where did he ascend to?】
【He couldn't wait, and hurriedly opened the handwritten notes behind.】
【You also looked over; the legendary experience of this Peng Chuan, the things left behind must be extraordinary.】
【Surprisingly, there is no word on the title page, only an ancient painting.】
【An ancient cauldron stands tall!】
【The inscriptions on it are complex and mysterious, the ears are standing, the four feet are stable, revealing an indescribable vicissitudes and solemnity.】
【Lu Yu's gaze stayed on this painting for a while, a flash of confusion in his eyes, and a familiar palpitation, seemingly similar.】
【As the pages turned, the second page recorded the cultivation method of the "Great Huangting", and the subsequent deduced profound realm, totaling thirty-six layers.】
【You couldn't help but surge with stormy waves in your heart; although you are already at the peak of the Grandmaster, only one step away from the Primordial Realm, you can only deduce eighteen layers.】
【This Peng Chuan, what kind of unimaginable realm has his martial arts cultivation reached?】
【Liu Jinchan was also deeply moved: "When I first saw this book, my expression was the same as yours, I didn't expect that the 'Great Huangting' still has thirty-six layers."】
【He continued: "After reading this book, I almost believed that this patriarch could really ride a dragon and ascend, transcending the world."】
【Lu Yu's face was also full of surprise; he knew that every layer of cultivation of the "Great Huangting" meant a leap in power, and its terrifying power was indescribable.】
【Lu Yu couldn't wait to continue reading, and the opening of the next page was a shocking sentence!】
【"I am an immortal from heaven!"】
