Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Chapter 732: Towering Dongyu Mountain, Blessed Land Penglai Pavilion

"Dongyu Mountains?"

"Taoist Lingyuan?"

In Suxizhou, flying into the cave of Qianyuan Mountain, True Lord Qiyuan couldn't help showing a sarcastic look when looking at the letter sent from Qiyunzhou.

"Oh, we asked them to come over before, but they didn't listen."

"One or two of them think highly of themselves and think they can monopolize the entire Qiyun Continent."

"How is the result?"

"We went to provoke that Jade Bright Master. Eight fought against one and not a single one came back."

As he spoke, Qiyuan Zhenjun sneered and said, "Now that Taoist Lingyuan is here, they feel that they can't afford to offend him, so they think of me again?"

"How can there be such a good thing in the world!"

The disciples standing beside Qiyuan Zhenjun stepped forward and said, "Zhenjun, do you want to reject them?"

Qiyuan Zhenjun shook his head: "There is no need to reject them. Now those local forces in Tianyuan Realm are eyeing us one by one. As long as we don't show enough toughness, those fence-sitters will immediately switch to Tianhe Dao Sect!"

"Let's write a letter to Ling Yuan."

"However, it is not a letter of persuasion, but an invitation letter."

Invitation letter?

The disciples looked at each other, wondering what their own Master was up to.

However, Qiyuan Zhenjun had a smile in his eyes and started writing.

Green brocade with golden patterns and swimming dragons in red ink, along with Taoist texts written in silver seal script, finally True Lord Qiyuan stamped it with his own personal seal, sealed the brocade with magical power, and handed it to his disciple.

"Huaiqing, go to the Dongyu Mountains in Qiyunzhou and hand my letter to Taoist Lingyuan."

From Suxizhou to Qiyunzhou, one needs to cross the Sigui Sea.

Among the seven continents and five seas of the Tianyuan Realm, the Yujing Sea, Lingluo Sea, Fuliang Sea and Zhaoyao Sea are not located in the east, west, south and north positions of the Tianyuan Realm, but in the four offset positions.

The Sigui Sea is different. It is located in the center of the Tianyuan Realm, surrounding Tonglu Continent and connected to Suxi Continent, Qiyun Continent, Danmei Continent and Yunxu Continent. Because it connects the four continents, it is named Sigui Sea.

Huaiqing left Qianyuan Mountain in Suxizhou, rode a cloud crane all the way across the Sigui Sea, entered Qiyunzhou, and then crossed an island to reach the Dongyu Mountains in the southeast. This process alone took more than several months.

This is because the cloud crane that Huaiqing rode was a spiritual crane raised by the Qiankun Taoist Sect. It was originally a mount used for riding around, so its speed was extremely fast, even faster than that of ordinary Divine Transformation cultivators.

Otherwise, relying solely on Huaiqing's own flying speed, it would take several years to cross the Four Return Seas.

When he arrived at the Dongyu Mountains, Huaiqing saw a prosperous scene.

At this time, a large number of inns, manors and other places of residence appeared inside and outside the Dongyu Mountains, and the monks were traveling back and forth either riding on clouds or on horses.

In the Dongyu Mountains, Huaiqing actually saw a hint of Qianyuan Mountain.

Ever since Qiyuan Zhenjun established his temple in Qianyuan Mountain and the cultivators from Jiuzhou Realm have been vigorously developing Qianyuan Mountain, the status of Qianyuan Mountain in Suxizhou has become increasingly important.

Various forces from Suxizhou were constantly traveling to Qianyuan Mountain, and all kinds of resources were converging to Qianyuan Mountain. In addition, a large number of independent cultivators came to Qianyuan Mountain in search of opportunities. Qianyuan Mountain was brightly lit day and night, and there were a lot of carriages and horses.

But today in Dongyu Mountain, Huaiqing saw the shadow of Qianyuan Mountain, or he saw the potential of Dongyu Mountain: as long as Lingyuan Zhenjun of the Three Realms is here for one day, Dongyu Mountain will be prosperous for one day.

Taking a deep breath, Huai Qingyu flew the cloud crane under his seat straight to the center of the Dongyu Mountains.

Yunhe rode the wind, and Huaiqing also saw the continuous palaces and pavilions in the center of the Dongyu Mountains.

Among the strange peaks and steep mountains, the fairy palaces and cloud halls are scattered in an orderly manner, and where the sea of ​​clouds rolls, the corridors and high platforms are looming.

Red maples and plum blossoms, green pines and cypresses can be seen everywhere, there are the whistling of cranes, the playing of white apes, dragons emerging from waterfalls, and spotted deer appearing in bamboo seas. Monks in Taoist robes fly on swords and ride on cranes and dragons. Majestic Dharma boats come and go endlessly. It is a pure and prosperous Taoist paradise.

And between those palaces, on the central peak of the Dongyu Mountains, following the corridors and steps that are faintly visible among the sea of ​​clouds all the way up, a palace seems to be suspended in the clouds.

Above the hall, a huge blue star was rotating endlessly, emitting brilliant light.

Huaiqing realized at the first moment: that was where True Lord Lingyuan was!
He is truly worthy of being the authentic master of Xuanmen from the Three Realms. It has only been a short time since he settled in the Tianyuan Realm, but he has established such a foundation.

Touching the letter in his arms, Huai Qing looked towards the mountain gate: he saw a mountain stream between two steep mountains as if someone had split it with a sword, with gurgling streams on both sides and a rugged path in the middle carved out with stone steps, winding upwards. At the end of the stone steps, there stood a gate tower with the words "Penglai Villa" written on it.

In front of the gate tower, two monks in green Taoist robes were standing guard, one on the left and one on the right.

Yunhe landed, Huaiqing crossed the mountain stream and climbed the stone steps to the mountain gate, then he followed the Taoist etiquette and bowed with his sword fingers: "Please come in, Taoist brothers."

"The little path is full of purity, coming from Qianyuan Mountain."

"When True Lord Qiyuan heard that True Lord Lingyuan had established a Taoist temple here, he specially ordered me to send a gift of congratulations."

When you go to different places, the etiquette is naturally different.

If Huai Qing went to the local forces in Tianyuan Realm, he would not need any etiquette. He could just look up at the sky and look at people with his nose.

But it’s different here. This is the Taoist temple established by True Lord Yuchen Lingyuan who came from the Three Realms. He is a nobleman on the same level as True Lord Tianyun Qiyuan.

If Huai Qing behaved inappropriately, it would not be Huai Qing's face that would be lost, but the face of Qiyuan Zhenjun and the Qiankun Dao Sect of the Jiuzhou Realm.

At that time, even True Lord Lingyuan would not need to take any action, because True Lord Qiyuan would have killed him.

Therefore, Huai Qing did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and was neither humble nor overbearing, showing the demeanor of a disciple of the Immortal Sect.

The two monks in front of the mountain gate also returned the greeting according to the etiquette. One of them said, "So you are the Taoist brother from Qianyuan Mountain. Please wait a moment. I will go and pass on the message."

After saying this, the monk entered the mountain gate and headed straight for the red maple forest in front of the mountain.

There was an extremely lush red maple forest on the mountain in front of Penglai Villa. In the middle of the forest, a rhinoceros, about ten feet long from head to tail and eight feet tall from hoof to shoulder, was lying there and sleeping soundly.

This is none other than the Fire-Resistant Rhinoceros King.

Today, the Fire-Proofing Rhinoceros King is the great monster guarding the mountain of Penglai Villa. He sits in the front mountain, and the red maple forest is his favorite place to stay.

The monk came to the red maple forest and was not afraid of the Fire-Bearing Rhinoceros King who was emitting a terrifying demonic aura: "Senior Fire-Bearing, Senior Fire-Bearing, please don't fall asleep."

"There is a messenger from Qianyuan Mountain, saying that he has a gift to congratulate the True Lord. Go and inform the True Lord quickly."

After hearing this, the Fire-Repelling Rhinoceros King stood up suddenly and blinked his eyes: "My master is right. Taoist Qiyuan really sent someone here."

"You go wait at the mountain gate, I will go and inform the master."

As he spoke, the Fire-Proof Rhinoceros King transformed into a human form and ran towards the main hall.

He climbed over the red maple forest, passed through the Tengyun Road, and then passed the Xinglang Bamboo Sea, climbed up to the Yuntai, and crossed the palaces and pavilions along the way, and finally arrived in front of the Zhongshan Yun Palace.

Since the establishment of the Taoist temple, Jiang Sheng has been practicing in seclusion in the main hall and has never gone out.

The creatures in the Dongyu Mountains also knew that Jiang Sheng liked quietness, so they didn't dare to disturb him.

It was a rare opportunity for Jiang Sheng to have a few days of peace.

At this time, in the palace, the chimes rang, green smoke curled up, elegant music and burning incense were heard, and Jiang Sheng, wearing a Taoist robe of green bamboo and cloud crane, with his hair loose, was describing something.

Several gauze curtains concealed the scene inside, and vaguely one could see a Taoist writing with a pen.

The Fire-Repelling Rhinoceros King called softly outside the palace, "Master." "You guessed it, the Taoist Qiyuan from Qianyuan Mountain really sent someone to give you a gift."

Jiang Sheng in the hall slowly raised his eyes, and in a blink of his eyes, his sight jumped out of the Cloud Palace, penetrated the numerous steep mountains and the Cloud Palaces, and from the misty mountain gate, he saw Huai Qing who was waiting.

Jiang Sheng then retracted his gaze: "Giving gifts is fake, inviting a fight is real."

"Qian Kun Dao Sect and my Penglai have never had a close relationship. Would he be so kind as to give me a gift?"

"It is for the Taiyi Dharma Assembly at Mount Qianyuan in ten years."

"Forget it. He has come from afar and is a guest. Please invite him over."

The Fire-Proofing Rhino King nodded: "Yes, sir."

Soon, the monk in front of the mountain gate got the message and led Huaiqing all the way to the Zhongshan Cloud Hall. Then he bowed and said goodbye: "The True Lord is in the hall. I have to go back to the mountain gate to guard. I won't see you in."

Huai Qing quickly thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Dao."

After watching the monk leave, Huai Qing looked towards the palace in front of him.

The palace was plain, without too many extravagant things. Apart from the pillars and beams supporting the palace, there were copper burners for burning incense, lamps for lighting, a few chime bells hidden behind screens, a cushion, and a table, and nothing else.

Along with the elegant music of the chimes, the curling sandalwood turned into green smoke that lingered in the hall, transforming into the scene of fish swimming in the water.

Although it is simple and elegant, it has a mysterious Taoist meaning, which is in line with the Taoist spirit of purity and naturalness.

A Taoist priest was sitting cross-legged on a cushion in the hall.

The Taoist was dressed in a Taoist robe with a pattern of green bamboo, clouds and cranes, and his hair was tied up with a silver hoop, falling naturally behind his head. There was no clear light of Taoist fruit, nor any auspicious haze, but there was a faint flow of energy around the Taoist, as if the world here was changing with the Taoist's breathing. Behind the Taoist, there was a couplet of words hanging, which read: Tao follows nature.

That is True Lord Yuchen Lingyuan.

Every move you make is in harmony with heaven and earth, and in harmony with nature.

The True Lord Lianxu of the Three Realms is indeed extraordinary!

Huai Qing bowed solemnly in front of the hall: "Disciple Huai Qing, I greet True Lord Yuchen Lingyuan."

"When True Lord Tianyun Qiyuan heard that he had established a Taoist temple in the Dongyu Mountains, he specially ordered his disciples to send congratulatory gifts."

After saying that, Huaiqing took out a brocade box.

Jiang Sheng nodded slightly and said gently, "Master Qiyuan is too polite."

"I will accept the congratulatory gift. Does True Lord Qiyuan have any other instructions?"

After hearing this, Huai Qing took out a piece of brocade and said, "This is a letter written by Qiyuan Zhenjun himself, and he ordered his disciple to give it to Zhenjun."

Jiang Sheng hooked his finger, and the brocade appeared in front of him.

He casually wiped off the mark of magic power on it, and as the brocade was spread out, a number of silver Taoist characters appeared in front of Jiang Sheng.

After Jiang Sheng confirmed the contents of the letter one by one, he smiled and then raised his hand to add a few words on the brocade: "I understand what Master Qiyuan meant. Please send this letter back."

"You've worked hard delivering the letter, take this bottle of medicine."

After saying this, the brocade and a small jade bottle turned into flowing light and fell into Huaiqing's hands.

Huaiqing put away the brocade and jade bottle, thanked him and left.

After Huai Qing left, the Fire-Repelling Rhinoceros King sneaked into the hall and said, "Master, does Taoist Qiyuan really want to invite you to a banquet?"

Jiang Sheng glanced at the monster and said, "Why, Master, am I not worthy?"

The Fire-Proofing Rhino King smiled awkwardly: "That's not what I meant."

"But sir, Taoist Qiyuan is holding a banquet on his own territory, and he has invited all the forces in the Tianyuan Realm and those True Lords from other realms. I'm afraid it won't be a good banquet."

Jiang Sheng nodded. The Fire-Breaking Rhinoceros King was right. Taoist Qiyuan’s banquet was definitely not that delicious.

Jiang Sheng could roughly guess what Taoist Qiyuan was thinking. He simply wanted to use this opportunity to demonstrate his appeal and prestige, while trying to subdue the local forces of the Tianyuan Realm, win over the cultivators from other realms, and finally unite to deal with the Shanhe Taoists.

Since Taoist Qiyuan had this idea, even if he didn't send a letter, Jiang Sheng would still come uninvited as a bad guest. What's more, he did send a letter, so how could Jiang Sheng miss it?

Jiang Sheng even believed that not only he had received the invitation, but also Ming Xian from Tianhe Taoist Sect and Xuan Yi from Qinghua Taoist Sect who would arrive in some time.

The ambition of that Taoist Qiyuan is huge!
"The banquet is definitely not a good one, but that doesn't affect anything."

As Jiang Sheng was speaking, he suddenly sensed something and looked up at the sky. He saw a streak of light passing by and Jiang Sheng immediately disappeared in the hall.

At the same time, above the Dongyu Mountains, Jiang Sheng looked at the figure coming from afar and said with a smile: "Brother Xuanyi, it has been five hundred years since we parted at the Penglai Dharma Assembly when we were young."

The figure who came from afar was Xuan Yi from Qinghua Taoist Sect.

Xuan Yi smiled and said, "You, Lingyuan, are a very busy man. You have left that wonderful little Penglai fairyland empty. You have been traveling outside for years and months, and I haven't seen you go back for hundreds of years. If you don't want it, you might as well give that place to me."

The small Penglai fairyland in the Liuyu Sea of ​​the South China Sea is a good place. There are only a handful of blessed places and caves in the world that can compare with it. I don't know how many people are jealous of that precious land.

Jiang Sheng was not annoyed when he heard this, and said with a smile: "If you like the layout of Little Penglai, go and ask Mingyang Tianzun for an opportunity."

Xuan Yi shook his head: "I can't compare with you. These years, I have been busy with sect affairs and dealing with contacts with the outside world. It's really tiring."

"Originally I didn't want to come to the Tianyuan Realm, but when I heard you were here, and Mingxian was here too, I decided to join in the fun and meet the geniuses from other realms."

Although Xuan Yi said so, looking at his nonchalant look, it was obvious that he did not take the genius of his world seriously.

After all, he is the contemporary eldest brother of the Qinghua Taoist Sect, a dignified Pure Yang Holy Land and an authentic Xuanmen sect. How can others imagine how arrogant he is?

Jiang Sheng didn't say much, but extended his hand and said, "Brother, please."

"please."

In the Zhongshan Cloud Palace, chime bells and zithers played Taoist music, green smoke turned into cloud dragons, and flowing lights turned into phoenixes.

Jiang Sheng and Xuan Yi sat together in the hall, burning incense, brewing tea, and chatting about everything under the sun.

After chatting, Xuan Yi said, "I came to Tianyuan Realm this time and rushed to you without stopping, just to hear your opinion on the current situation in Tianyuan Realm."

Jiang Sheng pondered for a moment, pointed his finger, and drew the tea in the cup to form a map of the Tianyuan Realm.

"The Tianyuan Realm is divided into seven continents and five seas, needless to say."

"Originally, the Tianyuan Holy Sect occupied the three continents of Shanfan, Suxi, and Danmei, and Tianhe occupied the four continents of Cuixia, Qiyun, Tonglu, and Yunxu."

"But after that great battle, neither the Tianyuan Holy Sect nor the Tianhe Dao Sect emerged as a winner."

Xuanyi nodded. As the current eldest senior brother of Qinghua Taoist Sect, he knew the inside story of that great battle.

After this battle, the Tianhe Taoist Sect gave up the three continents that they had gained after fighting for thousands of years. Billions of lives and countless resources were handed over, and even Yangji Taoist Master, who was in the state of holding the Tao, was damaged.

It can be said that Tianhe Dao Sect suffered serious damage.

but,

Did the Tianyuan Holy Sect win?
