Mr. Chardon followed the young Taoist priest to the reception hall in the middle yard of Cohmer Temple. This was the reception
room in Cohmer Temple which was specially used to entertain abbots and overseers from other Taoist temples or pilgrims who
had made great contributions to the Taoist temple.
After asking Mr. Chardon to wait here, the young Taoist priest hurriedly ran to report this matter to his master.
In Cohmer Temple, most of the people who stayed in the front yard for a long time were junior Taoist priests with relatively low
qualifications, so they were tasked with maintaining order among tourists and believers in the yard while cleaning, maintaining
temple statues, and sorting out tributes.
Therefore, if the young Taoist priest wanted to report news to the overseer, the message had to be conveyed through layers, and
the number of levels of transmission was more than the young Taoist priest had expected.
Twenty minutes later, an old man in a Taoist robe who was surrounded by a crowd of people hurried over with joy and surprise.
He rushed into the reception room directly, glanced at Mr. Chardon, and stood motionless at the door as if a restraining spell had
been cast on him.
Samadius was the Taoist name given to him by his master who adopted him back then. His master had always referred to him by
this nickname since he was a child. He only added the name 'Cassio' at the end of his name after he took over the role as
overseer.
Mr. Chardon looked at him, stroked his long beard gently, and asked with a smile, "Samadius, do you still recognize me?"
Samadius was so stunned that tears started flowing out of the corners of his wrinkled eyes as he sobbed and asked, "Master
Coldie, is it really you?!"
Mr. Chardon nodded slightly and said, "It's really me."
Samadius was very excited. He looked at Mr. Chardon and murmured, "Master Coldie, you look even younger than me now.
Could... Could it be that you've really discovered the secret to immortality?"
As soon as Samadius said these words, several older Taoist priests around him looked even more horrified! These people were
all core members of Cohmer Temple, and they had all heard of Master Coldie's story from Samadius.
Samadius had once told these people that the last time he had seen Master Coldie was in the late 1950s.
After nearly seventy years, no one would have expected that Master Coldie would look even younger than Samadius.
In their opinion, Master Coldie must have indeed discovered the legendary method to immortality.
there were many ways for one to enter the path to Taoism.
Among Taoist sects, there were also
those who used martial arts to enter Taoism as well. Quantum Sect, which was often mentioned in martialarts novels, was an
example
of a sect which used mannet
enter the path to Taoism.
In addition, there were many other ways to enter the path to Taoism such as through pills, talismans, divinations, and even
through the Mysterious Gates Escape Technique.
The Taoist priests from Cohmer
Temple have always used alchemy to enter the path to Taoism for hundreds of years. However, as their cultivation and alchemy
were not as exquisite, they had not produced any real talents over the years.
Mr. Chardon became a disciple of Cohmer Temple at the end of the 19th century. He stayed at Cohmer Temple for more than
half a century until the 1940s. He would get up early every day and practice refining hundreds or even thousands of pills every
day, and he would walk countless times in front of the gates of hell in order to test the pills but still fail to truly master Reiki.
It could be said that he got frustrated at the time and decided to leave Cohmer Temple to give up using pills to enter the path to
Taoism in search of other methods instead.
He then joined the Qing Eliminating Society by chance and mastered Reiki with the guidance and help of the British Lord.
