Journey to the head

Lu Qian's expression became even more respectful. "It is all thanks to Lord Xuan's great blessing that I was able to return safely. It is truly an honor for our sect that Lord Xuan is willing to honor us with your presence today. Please take a seat, Lord Xuan."

He wanted to lead Miaomiao Xuanjun to the main seat, but Xuanjun declined and said with a smile: "Tianyuanzi, why should you be so polite? You are now the enshriner of the Yunshan Sect and the leader of Cangzhou. You are also valued by Taiyi Paradise. Even Heming Zhenjun has invited you to the upper realm for a banquet. I will take my seat right here, how can I take the place of the host?"

Lu Qian invited him again and again, but Xuan Jun just declined. Ling Xuan Ling Jun, who was standing aside, also looked helpless.

Lu Qian suddenly bowed deeply: "Lord Xuan! The truth about the matter of offering the immortal scroll is clear to all the knowledgeable people in Cangzhou."

"During the chaos of corpses, the Sikong family colluded with corpse monsters to poison Cangzhou. You led the heroes, went through untold hardships, paid a huge price, and successfully killed Sikong Sheng. You defeated the Sikong family in one battle, laying the foundation for the final victory."

"If you hadn't risked your life and sacrificed your cultivation to win this battle, how could the people of Cangzhou have waited until Taiyi Paradise came to help? The final losses would have been ten times more tragic!"

"We all thought that by mobilizing the power of Cangzhou, the Sikong family could defeat them all at once. No one had expected that there was such a powerful force hidden behind the Sikong family. It's because the enemy is too insidious, cunning, vicious and cruel. It's definitely not your fault."

"Taiyi Paradise blames you for your blind confidence and improper handling of the matter, but your original intention was not to trouble the sect for everything and to share the worries of Taiyi Paradise."

The polite smile on Miaomiao Xuanjun's face disappeared.

"You have made great contributions to the people of Cangzhou. If it weren't for Lord Xuan, only one out of a hundred people in Cangzhou would be alive now!"

"The various sects in Cangzhou have spent nearly two thousand years under the leadership of Xuanwei Sect. Xuanjun protects Qingzhou from outside and eliminates evil from within, balancing the interests of all parties, allowing our Cangzhou to survive disasters and flourish. Who wouldn't admire and worship him?"

"The Xuanwei Sect is worthy of being the leading sect in Cangzhou, and Xuan Jun is worthy of being the leader of Cangzhou!"

"Today is just bad luck. Taiyi Paradise has temporarily taken away the immortal scroll, but Xuanjun is still the only Yuanshen in Cangzhou, and Xuanwei Sect is still the strongest in Cangzhou!"

"We still respect Lord Xuan as the common ruler of Cangzhou. This is clear as day and night, and Lord Xuan has no doubts about it!"

Miaomiao Xuanjun was silent for a moment, then stepped forward to help Lu Qian up. When the Yunshan Sect Leader raised his head, his eyes were slightly red.

"Xuan Jun must not be depressed because of a temporary setback. The road is full of changes and the journey is difficult. What does it matter if you are honored or humiliated for a while?"

"When I was still in the process of building my foundation, I was blessed with treasures and cultivation from Lord Xuan. Since then, the rise of the Yunshan Sect in Cangzhou has been made possible thanks to Lord Xuan's protection and support along the way."

"If there is no Xuanwei Sect, there will be no Yunshan today. If there is no Xuanjun, there will be no Lu Qian today!"

"Whether there is an immortal scroll or not, as long as Lord Xuan gives the order, I will be the vanguard!"

Miaomiao Xuanjun was deeply moved. He held Lu Qian's arm and sighed repeatedly, but was speechless. After a long time, he said, "Lu Qian, you are a true gentleman."

Lu Qian said in a deep voice: "Although I am young, I also know the meaning of loyalty and righteousness. People should not forget their roots."

Miaomiao Xuanjun sighed, thinking back to the past, feeling agitated.

"You should never forget your roots. First there was the rebellion of the forbidden sect, and then there was the zombie disaster. Each time it was thanks to you that you turned the tide and saved the crisis. Even my life was saved by you many times. I can't forget these friendships either."

Lu Qian nodded heavily: "Mr. Xuan, I am willing to report to Taiyi Paradise and give up the Immortal Scroll. At the same time, I support Xuanwei Sect to restore its qualification to permanently worship the Immortal Scroll."

Youde Lingjun and Lianyi Lingjun looked at each other and took a step forward: "That's right, our Lingshou Sect and Qinglian Zhenzong are also willing to give up offerings and support Xuanwei Sect to regain control of the immortal scroll!"

The elders of other Jindan sects also hurriedly followed suit. For a moment, the hall was filled with calls for the Xuanwei Sect to take over the immortal talisman again.

Miao Miao Xuan Jun was deeply moved. He looked around and couldn't help muttering, "There are so many loyal and righteous people in Cangzhou."

After a pause, he sighed again: "I appreciate your kindness. But the immortal scroll was given by Taiyi Paradise, and it represents the dignity of the sect. Who will be in charge of it? How can we have any say in it? Don't mention this again. If you really report it, I'm afraid our entire Cangzhou will be severely punished."

Ling Xuan Ling Jun took the opportunity to say: "The various factions in Cangzhou still support us, and the people's hearts can be used. As long as Xuan Jun makes some contributions, Taiyi Paradise will definitely change its mind. So, please cheer up, Xuan Jun."

Miaomiao Xuanjun nodded, and Lu Qian led him to the main seat, and then led all the factions to pay homage in unison.

Looking at such a scene, Miaomiao Xuanjun was filled with emotion, and then listened to Lu Qian's loud voice.

"The Immortal Scroll is nothing but an empty title. It is unacceptable to let the various sects in Cangzhou become alienated just for the sake of an Immortal Scroll! As long as the various sects in Cangzhou are united, it doesn't matter whether there is an Immortal Scroll or not!"

"Well said!" Miaomiao Xuanjun clapped his hands and praised, "Cangzhou is full of righteous people. Gentlemen, from now on, it will all depend on you to maintain order."

All the sects and factions responded one after another, creating a harmonious scene between the ruler and his subjects.

In the corner of the hall, Yu Jiao and Huo Jin were each holding a watermelon and enjoying it.

Huo Jin leaned close to Yu Jiao's ear and said, "Young Master, the Lord is truly loyal and righteous, a sincere gentleman. This Lord Miao Miao Xuan is also a benevolent ruler. It sounds like their grudges have been resolved, and things will naturally be very good in the future."

Yu Jiao ate the melon with a slurp and said incoherently, "What's good? I'll translate what Lu Qian said for you."

He swallowed the melon in one gulp. "Oi, you old man, don't lie down if you're not dead yet. Get up and block a few more swords for me. If you don't go to the battle, who will?"

"We in the Yunshan Sect firmly support you in continuing to be the scapegoat!"

"Don't fall down before we develop, Lao Deng."

After a while of greeting, Taoist Xichan suddenly shouted, "Lu Qian, you invited us to a banquet, why don't you serve us some wine and food? Just let us sit and chat."

Lu Qian said with a smile: "Don't worry, senior. Just now the guests were not all here, so we stayed here for a while. Now that all the heroes of Cangzhou are here, how about you follow me to the banquet?"

Taoist Xichan asked curiously, "You want to change the venue? You won't use the side hall to entertain me, right? I won't go."

Lu Qian laughed: "Now that Xuan Jun is here in person, and there are also the Ling Juns, as well as the heads of various sects and the backbones of Cangzhou, I will naturally entertain you in the most grand manner. Please!"

He led everyone out of the hall, smiled slightly amid everyone's curious gazes, and an object in his dantian glowed brightly, escaped from a cave, and went straight into the sky!

There was a loud bang!
The light was brilliant, the auspicious aura was thousands of lines, the spiritual energy was surging, and it fell like a waterfall. A huge crystal clear city stretched across the sky, blocking the sunlight and covering the entire Biluo Peak!
At this moment, even Miaomiao Xuanjun couldn't help but widen his eyes.

The best acquired spiritual treasure, Baiyujing!

But see-

The nine layers of clouds reflected the sky, and the rolling mist covered the starlight.
Kunlun's snow condenses into jade bones, and the spiritual seals are used to write cloud chapters in the sky.

The ten thousand feet high city wall is like floating stars, and the thousand bricks are connected to the sky.
The jade tablet wafts the morning and evening mists, and the immortal seal emits soul-captivating light.

The green dragon in the east pavilion circles around the jade pillar, and the white tiger in the west pavilion roars with the golden aura.
The Vermillion Bird on the south eaves burns the Li Fire, the Black Tortoise on the north side carries the Luozang. The seven-treasure colored glaze condenses the great spirit, the yin and yang of the north and south become chaotic,
The five directions rotate to create nature, while Tai Chi hangs in the air to determine the mystery.

The frost and mist hide the sun and moon. This city should be the king of cities.
All the spiritual treasures in the world are inferior to this, the best in the world is Baiyujing!
Stimulated by the spiritual marrow and powered by the fifth-level spiritual vein of Biluo Peak, Baiyujing, the ultimate spiritual treasure from another world, revealed its true appearance for the first time in front of all the sects in Cangzhou.

There was a sudden shock!
The powerful spiritual pressure spread wildly, the Jindan cultivators changed color in horror and found it difficult to stand still, while the Yuanying cultivators were all greatly shocked.

The Spirit Lords had fought in many battles and had seen many great battles. Of course, a top-grade spiritual treasure was not that rare. But Miao Miao Xuan Lord had three top-grade spiritual treasures bestowed by Taiyi Paradise: the Xingchen Gourd, the Tianwei Drum, and the Out-of-this-world Avoidance Lamp.

However, this fairy city and this magical treasure can be controlled by a Nascent Soul cultivator, which means that -

“It’s a spiritual treasure!”

The Taoist Xichan shouted, and the golden toad roared loudly above his head.

"No wonder my Golden Toad has been saying that Lu Qian has a treasure, the rank of which is so high that it can't even smell it. It turns out to be a top-grade spiritual treasure!"

Generally speaking, only the True Lord Lianxu can cultivate a spiritual treasure that can give birth to an instrument spirit. Moreover, it can only be said that the True Lord Lianxu has the possibility to cultivate it, and not everyone has it.

Considering the power and majesty of this spiritual treasure, once Lu Qian is promoted to the primordial spirit and truly recognizes his master, he will probably be able to resist True Lord Lianxu to some extent!
Where did Lu Qian get such a valuable treasure? Taiyi Paradise?
"Everyone, please follow me."

Lu Qian flew up and led the way. The Yuanying and Jindan cultivators of the Yunshan Sect followed on both sides, leading the shocked cultivators to this majestic immortal city.

The moment approaching the city gate, the jade plaque hanging high above the gate suddenly shone brightly, the three words "Bai Yujing" glowed in golden light, and seal characters could be vaguely seen appearing and disappearing in it, causing those who looked at it to tremble in their hearts.

Lord Lianyi was silent. He originally thought that although the Yunshan Sect had the power of four Yuanying, his own foundation was far superior to Yunshan after all. After fifty years of keeping a low profile, the number of Jindan and foundation building was far more than Yunshan. Coupled with the sect's thousands of years of foundation, its overall strength should be slightly better than Yunshan Sect.

But at this moment, seeing this unexpected fairy city Baiyujing, he felt a tremendous force pressing directly on his heart.

Alas, Lu Qian has endless trump cards, and is favored by Taiyi Paradise. The Yunshan Sect already has a strong foundation, and my sect has been temporarily surpassed by the Yunshan Sect.

As they walked along the Jade Path into Baiyu Capital, they felt the spiritual energy washing over them like a waterfall, and their hearts were shocked again.

This level of spiritual energy is already very close to the sixth level spiritual vein!
This fairy city actually has the ability to condense spiritual energy from spiritual veins. It absorbs and condenses the spiritual energy from the fifth-level low-level spiritual veins of Biluo Peak and the free spiritual energy in a very wide range, raising the spiritual energy level by two small levels!
Lord Youde Ling was walking on the jade path, waving the folding fan in his hand. Bai Ze, whose name was Mingzhuang, was observing the outside world.

Lord Youde Ling was not stupid. He certainly knew that Lu Qian, who had just accepted the banquet bestowed by Taiyi Paradise, sacrificed this white jade capital city to show off his strength and consolidate his deterrence.

Moreover, at the banquet later, everyone will discuss uniting to guard against attacks from the hundreds of clans underground. The Yunshan Sect showing its strength at this time is of course intriguing.

He silently observed this fairy city, looked at the various buildings in the city, and deduced the efficacy of this mysterious magical treasure.

The first one must be the size of Ruyi, which was originally hidden in Lu Qian's Dantian, but now it can be enlarged to cover the entire Biluo Peak. If the weight also changes with the size, who can stop such a huge city weighing billions of tons from falling on the head?
Secondly, it should have a strong defense. Not to mention that it can cross the void with the cultivators of the Void Refining Sect, look at the jade bricks with seal characters echoing the stars, look at the ancient seal characters on the extremely thick city walls, and the power of the four symbols flowing on the four-sided attic, plus the power of the five elements formed by the main hall of the Central Jade Capital.
Thirdly, it can condense spiritual energy, so there must be some mystery that has not been revealed.

Great, really great.

It’s just that Lu Qian can’t really make this spiritual treasure recognize its master now, otherwise Yunshan’s strength would immediately rise to a higher level.

Lingxuan Lingjun stared at the fairy city with her beautiful eyes without blinking, and could hardly move.

This is truly the best fairy city on earth. It is so gorgeous and so perfect for me! If I could get this magical treasure, I would be willing to exchange it for anything!

Unfortunately, it's just thought, it can't be exchanged, let alone robbing... Haha, Lu Qian has just been invited to a banquet in Taiyi Paradise. In the entire Yuheng Continent, is there anyone who dares to rob his things?
But as Bai Tao's senior sister, it's okay for me to come here and stay occasionally.

The other Jindan sects were all shocked and speechless, holding their breath. Especially the independent sects in the northern part of Cangzhou, they were even more determined to do everything they could to join the Chongming Alliance.

Miaomiao Xuanjun couldn't help but ask, "Lu Qian, was this magic treasure given by Taiyi Paradise?"

Lu Qian led the way for him: "This is the opportunity I have gained in the past fifty years. It is also a blessing to have survived a great disaster."

Lu Qian had just spoken out, letting him get over his worries, and sincerely respected him as the co-lord of Cangzhou. At this moment, although Miaomiao Xuanjun envied Lu Qian's luck, he did not cause any misunderstandings when Bai Yujing was sacrificed.

In his opinion, even if the Yunshan Sect's strength has greatly increased, it is still far behind the Xuanwei Sect. Although Lu Qian wants to boast, he is ultimately willing to be inferior to the Xuanwei Sect and is a loyal right-hand man.

Leading the heads of various sects, supreme elders, clan leaders and others, they entered the solemn and grand main hall of Yujing amidst admiration. Lu Qian invited Miaomiao Xuanjun to sit at the head seat, and the rest of the people took their seats in turn at the invitation of Lin Le and Wu Yan.

Amid the heated discussions, a steady stream of delicacies and spiritual fruits were served, and jars of fine wines emitted enchanting aromas in the air.

This Cangzhou banquet finally began.

As the guests toasted each other, they couldn't help asking Lu Qian where he had been for the past fifty years, but Lu Qian just laughed it off.

After three rounds of drinking, when the atmosphere was at its most lively, Miaomiao Xuanjun called on everyone to raise their glasses to congratulate Lu Qian on his return.

Then he put down his glass and his face became serious.

"Fifty years ago, the corpse tribe caused chaos and Cangzhou suffered heavy losses. Now it has only recovered a little. However, Lu Qian recently learned that the hundreds of clans underground are actually planning to attack Cangzhou!"

"Maybe they want to pick on an easy target, but we will make them break their heads and bleed! Lu Qian, please explain the situation to everyone again."

Everyone stopped smiling and sat up straight. Ever since receiving the message from Lu Qian, all factions in Cangzhou have entered a tense state of preparation for war. Each sect has strengthened its defenses and is looking forward to reaching a consensus at this banquet to fight against the foreign enemy together.

Lu Qian stood up and started talking about the offensive and defensive confrontation between Taiyi Paradise and the hundreds of underground tribes in the entire Yuheng Continent. He also talked about the intelligence he had obtained after entering the underground, that General Banshan planned to lead a large army to raid Cangzhou.

As the war was approaching, the enemy's strength was still difficult to judge, and everyone had a solemn look on their faces, and the ordinary Jindan sects were even more frightened.

"Fortunately, Lu Qian got the information in advance, and now Cangzhou is ready." Miaomiao Xuanjun said loudly, "And Taiyi Paradise will never allow aliens to invade, so there is no need to panic."

"As long as we unite and integrate the power of the entire Cangzhou, we will be able to protect ourselves. Even if the enemy is powerful, we can hold out until Taiyi Paradise rescues us!"

Miao Miao Xuan Jun's encouragement made everyone look better. He was about to continue talking about the various matters concerning the establishment of the coalition forces, when suddenly Lin Le came up in a hurry and handed a roll of intelligence to Lu Qian.

Lu Qian unfolded it and was shocked. He stood up and said, "General Banshan is attacking!"

"But it didn't attack Cangzhou, but Qingzhou!"

"Qingzhou Si Nan Xuan Jun was attacked and seriously injured, and the demon army began to wreak havoc in Qingzhou!" (End of this chapter)
