I seek immortality by chance

Chapter 242 Congratulations to Master Donghua! (-in-)

Zhengyang Palace!
This is the most massive and simple main hall at the top of Qingfeng Taoist Temple. It is never open to the public on weekdays and is only used during major ceremonies.

The silk and bamboo are melodious, the sapphire is the brick, and the white jade tables and cases are arranged in sequence.

The aroma of spirit wine and stacks of fruits and delicacies are on the table. Just one sip of it will make people feel astonished and make them feel as if they are in heaven.

Even the eighteen sapphire table cases in the lower hall contain precious spiritual fruits and third-level wine.

Huo Yunzi sat behind the jade table in the lower hall. He bowed to his colleagues around him cautiously, then raised his head and looked cautiously at the upper hall.

"One, two, three...fifteen!"

He thought silently in his mind and gently counted the white jade desks in the upper hall. He was shocked!

Fifteen jade cases mean that there are fifteen golden elixirs above the upper hall!
Normally, it only takes one Golden Core cultivator to slaughter the entire Yanyun Sect, but now fifteen of them appear in one breath, how terrifying is it?
At the top of the hall, there are eight golden jade tables, but they are all empty at the moment.

Huo Yunzi didn't dare to show his anger, for fear of disturbing the people present and causing displeasure.

At this moment, Master Tiangang Tiandou of Tiangang Peak suddenly chuckled.

"Thank you, senior brother, and thank you fellow Taoists!"

In the main hall, all the Golden Pill and Foundation Establishment monks saluted one after another to show their respect.

At this moment, seven golden lights came together and landed behind the golden jade case at the top of the hall.

As for Master Yunyang, he will meet Gu Yuan after the ceremony and will not appear during the ceremony.

"Fellow Taoists, thank you very much for coming from thousands of miles away!"

At the end of the white jade case, a female cultivator with a delicate appearance, wearing a green robe and a bamboo leaf scar between her eyebrows, took the lead in taking out a jade box and presented it to Gu Yuan.

After all, once the Taoist embryo emerges, the limelight will be too great and it will overwhelm the protagonist of the ceremony.

"Meet the Seven Masters!"

But Cen Qingqing felt a little uneasy when facing many looks.

Seeing that there was only one empty seat in the center of the main hall, the Taoist hesitated a little.

"The rightful owner is here!"

Master Sword Fox spoke softly and explained to Gu Yuan.

The Golden Elixir Ceremony actually doesn't have many gimmicks. It's just about receiving gifts, meeting each other, and exchanging practice experiences. It can be considered as a way to take care of you when you travel in the Nanshan Region in the future.

Gu Yuan responded with a smile.

Master Tiandou laughed and made an invitation gesture to him.

In an instant, all eyes in the main hall were focused on him.

Some Jindan monks who are more withdrawn are not even willing to hold a ceremony, thinking that it is of little use.

Gu Yuan chuckled lightly, and without hesitation, led Cen Qingqing and Shi Shiran sat down behind the case.

Master Jianhu spoke softly to Gu Yuan.

Although she was overjoyed to be dragged by Gu Yuan to participate in the Golden Elixir Ceremony, she felt a little uneasy as she was one of the first to build a foundation and ranked above many Golden Elixir.

"Fellow Taoist Gu is a hundred years old and has made elixirs. He is extremely talented and I am ashamed of myself. I have the honor to attend the ceremony today and present a thousand-year-old bamboo to congratulate my fellow Taoist!"

"Junior brother, why should you worry? You are the protagonist today and will be celebrated by hundreds of factions. You deserve to be at the top of the list!"

The two exchanged pleasantries and had a drink, so they became acquainted.

Gu Yuan suddenly understood and saluted Master Yuezhu: "When I was young, I saw the prosperity of Yuezhufang City. I didn't expect to see the Master's true face today. I hope you will forgive me!"

Master Tiandou is the oldest among all the golden elixir practitioners in the Taoist Academy, and his cultivation is also the strongest. He is the only late-stage golden elixir monk in the Taoist Academy who can manifest visions.

He will preside over this golden elixir ceremony.

At the same time, I also secretly regretted in my heart, was my rash act of coming to congratulate him a gift too reckless?
Is the feeling of donating utensils back then really a kindness?

The seven golden elixirs from Qingfeng Taoist Academy also returned the gift one after another, and then the guests and hosts took their seats.

"Junior brother, today's ceremony is a great opportunity for you to understand the various sects."

For some reason, she subconsciously looked at Master Sword Fox on the other side of Gu Yuan.

"I've met seven fellow Taoists!"

"This is Master Yuezhu from Yuezhufang City. She is a master of bamboo spiritual practice. She has a relationship with our Taoist temple. Moreover, the Yuezhufang City she founded has guests from all over the world. She has a small fortune and many resources. If you need it in the future, you can ask her for it.”

But the Golden Elixir Ceremony was a good time to receive gifts, and Gu Yuan didn't want to miss it.

"Senior sister, don't worry, junior brother knows!"

Master Sword Fox seemed to have dressed up a bit today. He was wearing a brand new white Taoist robe, which was pure and clean, unstained by dust. His veil was also changed to a pair of white jade gauze. His pink eyes were flowing, and he just paused briefly on Cen Qingqing. He looked at Gu Yuan.

"After all, after the golden elixir, you are already the cornerstone of the Taoist Academy, and you have to represent the Taoist Academy."

Gu Yuan nodded one by one, not being restrained and facing it calmly.

There's curiosity, there's envy, there's peace... the list goes on.

Only the jade case in the center was still empty.

Accompanied by the laughter of Master Tiandou, a rich and handsome Taoist floated over holding a gorgeous female cultivator.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, you and I have been friends for thousands of years, so I will give this third-level small creation pill to you. I congratulate you on your success in forming the pill and may you live a thousand years!"

After Master Yuezhu, an old man with white beard and hair and a look of vicissitudes of life in his eyes took out a jade bottle and gave it to Gu Yuan.

"This is the Qiantui Master of the Yuanding Sect. This sect is located 30,000 miles east of Jiuchuan Daze. There are four Jindan in the sect, but they are all quite old. Especially this Qiantou Master, who is already alive. More than nine hundred years, time is running out.”

"And the other golden elixirs of Yuanding Sect are all around 800 years old."

"This sect is famous in the Nanshan region for its alchemy skills."

As soon as Master Chitose opened his mouth, Master Sword Fox's voice transmission came simultaneously.

Gu Yuan nodded slightly, thanked Master Qiansui and offered him spiritual wine.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, the old Taoist would like to congratulate the golden elixir with this third-level Meditation Dao Fruit. I also hope that you and I will move around more in the future!"

An old man with an immortal spirit and a whisk in his hand took out a jade box and said to Gu Yuan with a smile.

"Feixia Temple, Master Jiyun, although there are only five golden elixirs in this sect, they have a long heritage, and they are not even more generous than our Qingfeng Taoist Academy."

"The fourth-level formation in the temple, the Feixia God-Destroying Formation, can even resist Tao Fei. It is an ancient sect in the Nanshan Region."

"This sect is good at the way of mind and soul, and has a good relationship with our Taoist academy. It can really move around a lot."

Master Sword Fox acted as the commentator, and took the trouble to tell Gu Yuan the origins, inheritance, and attitudes of the various sects.

"Three Mountains Alliance, Loose Cultivator Alliance, a mixed bag of fish and dragons, located between our Taoist Academy and the other eight river demon clans. If you need things from the demon clan as a broker, you can contact this alliance."

"The Canghai Sect is good at controlling beasts. The sect is located where the river flows into the sea. This sect is cunning and we should not have close friendship with him."

"Nanshan Pavilion, you should know that this pavilion recognizes money but not people. You need to be more cautious when getting along."

"..."

Everyone in the hall reported their families one by one, and Master Jianhu also explained them one by one.

In just a moment, Gu Yuan understood all the forces in the palace. "Fellow Daoist Gu, I did something presumptuous many years ago. I hope you can forgive me!"

"Three hundred kilograms of Yuanyang Spiritual Iron, congratulations to fellow Taoist for achieving the Golden Elixir!"

At this moment, Master Tianxiang of Tianxiang Tower smiled brightly and sent a congratulatory gift to Gu Yuan.

As soon as this thing came out, everyone in the palace was surprised.

Yuanyang Spiritual Iron is the best of the third-order spiritual iron, and it is a precious spiritual mine that can be used to forge superior magic weapons.

In the Golden Elixir Ceremony, although everyone gave away third-level treasures, they were all common items and not particularly precious.

After all, it's just a grand ceremony, and the etiquette is enough.

But even if it is an ordinary third-level item, it is still a big windfall for a monk who has just entered the golden elixir.

But Yuanyang Spirit Iron is somewhat cherished, not an ordinary thing.

It's equivalent to the secular world. Ordinary people give gifts of five hundred or one thousand, and you just give them ten thousand.

Somewhat out of place.

Suppressing other golden elixirs and sects.

But Gu Yuan never refused anyone who came, and just as he was about to say thank you, he saw Tianxiang Master's eyes moving, he winked at him, and said: "I also have a gold and jade talisman from Tianxiang Tower here, and I would like to give it to him as well." Fellow Taoist Gu.”

Gold and jade talisman?
Gu Yuan didn't know the effectiveness of this talisman, but since it was given by the Jindan monk at the ceremony, it must be extraordinary.

A small smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he opened his mouth. Just as he was about to say thank you, Master Sword Fox already said in a cold voice: "Fellow Taoist, please leave this talisman to someone who is destined for you!"

After saying this, Master Sword Fox turned his magic power and directly sent back the golden and jade talisman.

Gu Yuan was startled and didn't know why, but the few golden elixir male cultivators who were watching in the hall couldn't help but laugh.

"Tianxiang Taoist is stingy by nature. I have been practicing Taoism for nearly a thousand years. I pass by Tianxiang Tower countless times and I have never received a single gold or jade talisman!"

"Fellow Daoist Gu has just achieved the golden elixir, and you gave it away. It's so irritating that people are more powerful than others!"

Master Chitose couldn't help but laugh.

"A spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold, but you still have to be young and romantic!"

Master Wuxu of the Three Mountains Alliance couldn't help but laugh.

Gu Yuan frowned slightly, a little confused, and turned to look at Master Sword Fox.

But Master Sword Fox raised his pink eyes slightly, but he didn't seem to see him at all and said nothing.

"There are three kinds of golden talismans in Tianxiang Tower, one is white jade, the second is sapphire, and the third is gold jade, which correspond to the three realms of Qi refining, foundation building, and golden elixir respectively."

"As long as you hold the corresponding golden talisman, you can practice double cultivation with any female cultivator in Tianxiang Tower and have fun together."

"The core disciples of Tianxiang Pavilion are not all incompetent, but they practice the orthodox Yin and Yang dual cultivation method. Especially Mrs. Tianxiang, whose Yuanyin is rich, is an excellent candidate for dual cultivation. For hundreds of years, there has never been a guest who has entered the curtain. "

"Junior brother, Tianxiang Tower has taken a liking to you."

At this moment, Master Tiandou quietly transmitted a message and explained to Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan suddenly realized, seeing that Master Sword Fox had turned his head to look, he immediately sat upright and did not dare to say anything.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, my Rakshasa Sect is located in a desolate and remote area of ​​Nanshan Mountain, and the products are not abundant. I can only use this Rakshasa Fruit as a gift. I hope you will forgive me!"

At this moment, a young Taoist wearing a black Taoist robe, with a slightly darker complexion and strands of flames in his hair, suddenly spoke and presented a purple spiritual fruit.

"The Rakshasa Sect is located in the barren land in the west of the Nanshan Region and has a low reputation. However, this sect is a real fourth-level sect. There is a Dao Ti in the sect, and its strength is extraordinary."

"This sect behaves a little strangely, both good and evil. Although we have a good relationship with our Taoist Academy over the years, we still have to be cautious if we meet."

Master Sword Fox's explanation came again, but this time it was a little more solemn.

"Rakshasa Sect..."

This was the second time Gu Yuan heard the name of a new fourth-level sect. For this reason, he couldn't help but do two things at once. While toasting to the Rakshasa sect's golden elixir, he curiously asked Master Sword Fox:
"Sister, how many fourth-level sects are there in this Nanshan region? Are there any fifth-level sects, monk Yuan Xiang?"

Gu Yuan is familiar with many classics and travel notes in the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, but there is still very little introduction to the fifth-level sects, and the words are unclear.

"The Nanshan Territory is vast. We, the human monks, have been pioneering for many years, but they only occupy one-third of the territory. The rest of the territory is mostly barren land, where countless strange beasts and poisonous insects survive, and the Golden Core monks cannot break in at will."

"But Taoist monks can already dominate one area and dominate this area."

"For many years, there have been four fourth-level sects in Nanshan Domain, each with its own town, namely our Qingfeng Taoist Academy, Luoxia Sect, Rakshasa Sect and Qingyang Temple!"

"Among the four sects, our Taoist school has a harmonious relationship with the Luoxia sect, while the Rakshasa sect is generally at odds with Qingyang Temple, so Qingyang Temple was not present in the hall this time."

"There is a demon king-level force around these four sects. They have been guarding each other for thousands of years, without distinction."

"Only the Luoxia Sect has made great progress over the years, swallowing up less than half of the six-winged purple golden eagle, and has become very popular."

"As for the fifth-level sects, they have to go hundreds of thousands of miles in the direction of the East Mountain Region and the Middle Earth China to see them."

"There may be Yuanxiang monks who have wandered here, but there is no fifth-level sect in our Nanshan Domain."

Master Jianhu patiently explained the general layout of the Nanshan Domain.

At the end, Master Jianhu couldn't help but sigh slightly: "Of the four regions in the world, the Western Sea Region is the most barren, followed by our Southern Mountain Region, and the Eastern Mountain Region is rich, but the three regions together are not as good as the Middle Earth Divine State. ”

"The vastness is vast, the ancestor of thousands of mountains!"

"In terms of the thickness of the spiritual veins and the strength of the monks in the world, nothing can compare with the China of Middle Earth!"

These words pulled Gu Yuan's thoughts far away.

But a clear voice brought him back to reality.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, for hundreds of years, you and I are the only two sects who have achieved the golden elixir."

"We're going to see each other today, how about you and I discussing Taoism to add to the excitement of this grand ceremony?"

At the head of the white jade table, Zuo Tianlun, the newly promoted Jindan monk of the Luoxia Sect, spoke loudly and looked at Gu Yuan with burning eyes.

As soon as these words came out, the hall fell silent.

Master Tiandou immediately spoke: "Friend Zuo, today is a good day to congratulate Junior Brother Gu on his achievement of the golden elixir and his long life. Fighting is not a pretty thing and it ruins the scenery, so it is better to drink!"

"Fellow Taoists, please raise a toast together to congratulate Junior Brother Gu!"

Everyone in the hall looked at each other, raised their wine glasses, and said congratulations: "Congratulations to fellow Taoist Gu!"

Zuo Tianlun's expression froze and he was about to say something, but Master Tiandou spoke again.

"Junior Brother Gu, although I am presiding over today's ceremony, the Golden Elixir Taoist titles are all given by the real person."

"I just heard from the real person that, Junior Brother Gu, you live on Ziyang Peak, you have purple energy coming from the east, you are a hundred years old, you are forming elixirs, you are in your prime, how about you take the word 'Donghua' as your Taoist name?"

Donghua? !
Gu Yuan chewed carefully, his eyes lit up, and he nodded involuntarily.

"Fellow Taoists, please have another drink to congratulate me, Qingfeng Taoist Temple, Master Donghua!"

"Congratulations to Master Donghua!"

Everyone in the upper and lower halls raised their glasses to congratulate him.

Zuo Tianlun was very helpless. It could be seen that Master Sword Fox looked at him with a serious look, so he could only give up after sighing!
