Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

"I did what you asked me to do."

"I contacted Shaobai Mingjun, but as I expected, he was unwilling to face the person from Qiyunzhou directly."

In a ruined cave in the Sigui Sea, the Rakshasa woman Lingluo looked at the burly man in front of her who was eating and drinking crazily. She looked speechless and helpless.

The man had messy red hair, a naked, muscular upper body, and was extremely tall. Even just sitting there, he gave people a strong sense of oppression and threat, as if the person sitting there was not a human being, but a violent and ferocious beast that was suppressing itself and could eat anyone at any time.

The feeling is no different from being in front of a volcano that is about to erupt. The violent storm is already upon us, the raging waves have already reached the earth and the sky, the signs have already been given, and only the final eruption is waiting.

It is nothing wrong to say that the person sitting here is not a human, because he does not belong to the human race, but a Yaksha, a Yaksha from the Rakshasa realm.

If Ling Luo is extremely seductive and beautiful, like a ripe, plump and juicy peach, but this peach is poisonous; then the men of the Yaksha tribe are extremely strong and wild, and do not hide their threats and terrors at all.

Upon hearing that Ling Luo had fulfilled his request, the Yaksha seemed not to have heard it. He continued to eat and drink with his back to Ling Luo, looking like a starving ghost reincarnated.

In the Rakshasa world, Ling Luo's status is extraordinary. Anyone who can ignore Ling Luo like this is definitely not an ordinary Yaksha.

In fact, this Yaksha is not ugly at all. It is tall and sturdy, extraordinarily strong, with a sense of passion and masculine beauty, completely different from those common ugly Yakshas.

Seeing that this guy ignored her and only cared about eating and drinking, Ling Luo did not get angry. She just watched quietly until he was full and breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction: "Everyone in the world has desires, whether it is mortals or gods and Buddhas, who is truly calm and peaceful, who has no trace of greed?"

"Mortals want immortality, wealth and splendor, while immortals and Buddhas want all living beings to worship them and want to control the world."

"Compared to them, my appetite is so insignificant, so insignificant."

"Lingluo, you said Fang Xuan is unwilling to face Ling Yuan directly?"

"You're wrong. I've met him before. He's much braver than you and me. Without the courage I had that day, how could he be the Xuansu Daozi of the Xuansu Sect in Zhoushan Realm and the famous Shaobai Mingjun?"

"Don't worry, he will definitely fight Ling Yuan."

Ling Luo couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "I say, have you really fought too many battles and your brain is full of muscles?"

"Among those who have achieved the profound Dao fruit in the heavens and myriad worlds, which one is stupid and which one is completely without any schemes?"

"How stupid! He couldn't even survive to achieve the Golden Core, let alone the Refining Void stage."

“Even if they are at the Refining Void Realm, or just at the Cavernous Void Dao Fruit, the lowest level of Refining Void, which one of them is not responsible for the future of a sect or the luck of a clan? Which of these people who have survived to this day is not like a monster? Not to mention the Cavernous Dao Fruit.”

"Shao Bai Mingjun is the best at judging the situation. The reason he can get to where he is today is not only because he is strong enough, but also because he always stands on the side of the winner."

"Do you think that with his insight, he can't detect your little tricks, or do you think that you and he can defeat the person from Qiyunzhou by joining forces?"

"Don't forget how Qiyuan Zhenjun was defeated. It was a real fight with swords and spears, but he was beaten into the chaos of the void."

"Do you think you can defeat Qiyuan Zhenjun, who is famous in the heavens and myriad worlds today, by beating all the geniuses in the Nine Provinces? Or do you think your strategy can surpass Shaobai Mingjun, who fought his way out of a group of evildoers from aristocratic families with his mortal body?"

The Yaksha remained silent, but took out another piece of meat from some unknown monster and started eating it.

at the same time.

In the Yunxian Palace at the foot of Qiyun Island, Jiang Sheng rejected Shaobai Mingjun's kindness in an unusually calm and indifferent manner.

"Lord Ming, I appreciate your kindness, but this favor is too heavy for me to bear."

Jiang Sheng sighed lightly, without any joy on his face, as if the news from Shao Bai Mingjun had brought him great trouble.

Seeing Shaobai Mingjun was puzzled, Jiang Sheng explained:
"To be honest with you, Lord Ming, I never thought of competing for anything when I came to the Tianyuan Realm. I just wanted to gain some experience and meet some top figures from the heavens and myriad worlds. In addition, I was too impatient and my realm was unstable. I just wanted to stabilize my realm and practice well. When I return to the Three Realms in the future, I will have gained something."

“Therefore, let alone going to other worlds, even if I want to leave this Qiyun Continent, it is difficult for me to leave.”

"This Lushan Mountain is full of spiritual energy. It can absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, wear purple air in the morning, and drink flowing water at night. It is enough for me to practice here for thousands of years. Why do I have to look for those so-called opportunities?"

Jiang Sheng's words stunned Shao Bai Ming Jun. Looking at the Tian Qi Luo Xing Plate that Jiang Sheng was playing with casually, Shao Bai Ming Jun opened his mouth but didn't know what to say: If you are really such a pure and natural Taoist, why bother to fight with Qiyuan Zhenjun? How could you destroy mountains and temples in Qiyunzhou and directly wipe out two immortal sects?
I just wanted to gain some experience and meet some of the top figures in the world.

What you mean by a meet is to defeat the opponent directly, take away his life treasure, and throw him into the turbulent flow of the void?
You've killed people, seized the temple, and got the treasure. Who are you trying to show off by pretending not to fight or compete?

However, Shao Bai Mingjun only thought about these words in his heart, and what he said out loud became: "True Lord, this news is genuine. If you have any concerns, I can even accompany you."

"After all, that is the legacy of that Taoist master, and it must return to the hands of our family."

Even though Shaobai Mingjun had shown his sincerity, Jiang Sheng remained unmoved: "Mingjun, why don't I be more straightforward."

"Traveling through the various worlds is a way to enlighten one's mind and sharpen one's heart. If one regards traveling through the various worlds as treasure hunting, and searches everywhere, then when opportunities come, disasters will also come along."

"Since you mentioned the legacy of the Taoist, do you know how many immortals of the upper three realms have perished in this 40,000-year period in the universe? And how many pure yang realms have entered the cycle of reincarnation?"

"Are these caves so easy to explore? Are the relics so easy to obtain?"

"Most of the time, it's all in vain."

Shao Bai Mingjun shook his head: "I do not agree with what you said."

"For us cultivators, cultivation is an act that defies the will of heaven. It can be said that we must fight for our lives. If we don't fight or compete, how can we achieve the great Dao and the fruit of the Dao?"

"If all the cultivators in the world could become immortals by just sitting and practicing, then billions of living beings in the heavens and the myriad worlds would have already become immortals."

“True Lord, with your cultivation and supernatural powers, are you still afraid of an opportunity that won’t come true?”

Jiang Sheng chuckled, his eyes showing no joy or anger, only indifference and clarity: "The more you practice, the more you realize how vast the world is, and how insignificant you are."

"The Pure Yang Relics, even if it is just a random object, contains infinite power. It is not an exaggeration to say that it can mediate the destiny."

"This kind of object is naturally spiritual, comparable to an immortal. Even if its spirituality is worn out and its power is gone, it is not something you and I can easily move."

"If you have a cave of the True Lord Lianxu and want me to accompany you to explore it, I will gladly go."

"Even if it's a ruined cave of a True Lord in the Fusion Realm, I'll take some risks and accompany Lord Ming to explore it." "But the Refining Void Realm can be visited, the Fusion Realm can be explored, but the Mahayana Realm is not something you and I can touch, let alone the Pure Yang Legacy?"

"Your Majesty, there is no need to say more. I will remember this favor."

Shao Bai Mingjun knew that it was useless to continue talking, so he stood up and said goodbye and left.

After Jiang Sheng sent Shao Bai Mingjun away from Lushan, his eyes became more and more indifferent. Jiang Sheng was extremely sure that there was definitely something wrong with the Mu Yuan Realm.

Shao Bai Mingjun was not angry when he left. Instead, he had a smile on his face, as if he had not encountered any setbacks. He also joked with Jiang Sheng, saying that he had traveled through the heavens and worlds in the past and met many strange people.

Shao Bai Mingjun's attitude was almost telling Jiang Sheng explicitly that there was something wrong with the Mu Yuan Realm. Perhaps Shao Bai Mingjun did not really mean it, and he was also asked by someone else to invite him?

Jiang Sheng lowered his head and thought, his right hand constantly rubbing the Tianqi Luoxing Plate, which was still like a dead object. He couldn't help feeling a little emotional, thinking that it would be great if he could drive this thing.

Jiang Sheng is also good at divination and predicting cause and effect.

But Jiang Sheng was not an expert in this field after all. The few magic weapons in his hands that could be used for geomancy were at most of the spiritual treasure grade, not of the immortal grade, and it was difficult for him to gain insight into the situation in the upper three realms.
"Muyuan Realm, Luwu Realm"

"We can't simply rely on Ming'an to investigate the situation. I really don't know much about the Mu Yuan Realm, but there is someone in the Tian Yuan Realm who knows about the Mu Yuan Realm."

Jiang Sheng pondered, and the appearance of Master Zi Ji appeared in his mind.

Master Zi Ji is a casual cultivator from the Mu Yuan Realm. He has some entanglements with Ye Wenshu. The treasure in his hand that contains the aura of blessings and virtues is also what Jiang Sheng wants to get.

In this case, why not first find the whereabouts of Master Zi Ji and capture him?

Jiang Sheng thought about it and felt that capturing Master Zi Ji first was undoubtedly a good choice.

Jiang Sheng didn't know much about the whereabouts of Master Zi Ji, but Jiang Sheng had his own methods. Just as exploring the situation in the Mu Yuan Realm required Master Zi Ji, a creature from the Mu Yuan Realm, so if he wanted to find someone in the Tian Yuan Realm, he naturally needed the native creatures of the Tian Yuan Realm.

After all, the various sects in Qiyun are the superior sects that have stood in Qiyun Continent for thousands of years. They are the real local bosses of Qiyun Continent and have close ties with other continents and seas in Tianyuan Realm.

My foundation in the Tianyuan Realm is still shallow, so why not let them share my worries?

"Someone is coming."

Jiang Sheng's voice came from the palace, and several disciples standing outside the palace immediately entered the palace, bowed and said, "True Lord."

These disciples all came from the Little Penglai fairyland. They were either from the families of Tian Mingan and Qiu Buyu, or from the aristocratic families of the 108 islands of Little Penglai. They were truly our own people.

Jiang Sheng handed the six jade boxes to the disciples respectively: "Send them to Qishan, Shengyun, Mingzhao, Fangshan, Danqing, and Liuyuan, and give them to the leaders of each sect. Ask them to keep an eye on it for me."

The disciples took the jade letter and left. Jiang Sheng was planning to continue practicing in seclusion and wait for the trace of Master Zi Ji before coming out. However, he didn't expect that just as Shao Bai Mingjun left, someone else came to find him.

"True Lord, there is someone who claims to be your old friend waiting at the foot of the mountain, saying he wants to see you."

Another old friend?

Jiang Sheng extended his consciousness and sensed the figure outside Lushan. He couldn't help but frowned: "Why is she here?"

Even though he hadn't seen her for a thousand years, Jiang Sheng could still recognize her identity: Bai He, the true disciple of Minguang Temple, the sacred place of the Buddhist Glaze Dao in Shaoguang Realm!

According to the information Jiang Sheng obtained, Bai He was only a disciple of a venerable monk in Minguang Temple in the past. But as Bai He's cultivation grew, her status changed constantly. She obtained the magical powers of the great Bodhisattva in Minguang Temple and was ranked as a true disciple of the Bodhisattva. She can be said to be a saint in the true sense of the word.

What puzzled Jiang Sheng was why the Holy Maiden from Mingguang Temple came to Tianyuan Realm?

After thinking it over in his mind, Jiang Sheng decided to meet this saint lady.

At this time, Bai He was waiting quietly at the foot of Lushan Mountain. She saw the holy lady of Minguang Temple with cloud-like hair, jade hairpins and lotus flowers in her hair, pearl and jade tassels in her ears, and a gauze gown with wide sleeves over an emerald green dress. Whether it was the lotus embroidered with gold thread on the hem or the auspicious clouds and blue sea painted with silver thread on the cuffs, they were all the treasures of immortals.

Not to mention that she was wearing a veil woven with silver silk and there was a majestic, golden-haired Suanni following by her side. Just looking at this scene, it is far more reliable to say that she was a fairy from some immortal sect than to say that she was from Buddhism.

Such a fairy saint standing in front of the mountain gate naturally attracted the attention of Lushan disciples.

After all, this fairy is not as arrogant as other female cultivators. Other female cultivators are as cold as icebergs and white lotuses, making people dare not approach them. They are as proud as people in the clouds; but this one exudes a gentle and soft aura, making people subconsciously relax and want to get closer to her and talk to her. This warm and trustworthy feeling is undoubtedly more willing to get close to her than those female cultivators who always hold their heads high.

The feeling of the Lushan disciples who wanted to see but didn't dare to, and wanted to get closer but were a little timid, made Bai He laugh. Gently stroking the Suanni beside him, Bai He was about to say something when he suddenly sensed something. The majestic Suanni beside him seemed to sense the threat and wanted to move forward to protect his master but was suppressed and unable to move.

The huge figure lay on the ground whimpering, without any sign of a divine beast.

Bai He seemed not to sense the danger, and just smiled and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, and the Taoist priest is still so strong."

The space in front of him rippled and separated to both sides like a tasseled gauze curtain, and a Taoist in a green crown and black robe walked out.

Looking at Bai He in front of him and hearing the familiar Taoist address, Jiang Sheng couldn't help but smile: "It's been a thousand years since we parted from the Earthly Mysterious Realm, right?"

Bai He chuckled: "It's been one thousand and one hundred years. Ever since I was defeated by the Taoist priest, I have been thinking about winning back all the time."

After all, they were outside his own Taoist temple, and facing the guests from afar, Jiang Sheng still did his best to be a good host, inviting Bai He to Lushan and hosting a banquet in Luyun Fairy Palace.

Inside the fairy palace, there are fairy music from bells and auspicious signs from cranes in the clouds.

In the mist of the pool, blue and white lotuses are blooming and swaying, emitting a peaceful glow.

Jiang Sheng and Bai He sat opposite each other, with fairy tea, magical fruits, and delicacies from land and sea in front of them.

Bai He nodded repeatedly: "It's worth my trip here. With the Taoist priest's warm hospitality, it's not in vain."

Jiang Sheng raised his teacup and offered tea instead of wine: "The Saint has come from afar, so I will treat you warmly."

"Speaking of which, what is the purpose of the Saint Lady coming to this Tianyuan Realm?"

Bai He took a sip of tea and slowly put down the teacup. Her eyes were covered by her veil, and she seemed to be smiling. "Master, you are alone in the Tianyuan Realm. You are surrounded by wolves. The situation is very dangerous."

"And I, entrusted by Sister Ye, am here to lend a helping hand to the Taoist priest." (End of this chapter)
