Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

To the east of Jurong, in the green and jade-like land, is the Fox Hill.

Therefore it is called Qingqiu.

There is a saint in Qingqiu, named Lord Donghua, also known as the Nine-tailed Great Sage of the Wheel of Confusion and Illusion. He is the ancestor of the Su family, and he has a long life and good fortune. In the past, he was also a great saint who shocked the heavens and all realms.

Up to now, the Nine-tailed Great Sage has rarely appeared in public. He has been practicing in seclusion in Shouqiu for most of the year. The development of Qingqiu is decided by the clan leaders and elders of all generations.

The elders of the Su clan are usually those in the upper three realms who are highly respected and have no future, and can focus on clan affairs without practicing magic.

The long lifespan of the upper three realms ensures that the elders have enough experience to handle various matters, and the personal connections of the upper three realms can also better assist the clan leader.

These upper three realms of the Yousu family, whose future was cut off, had lost the desire for personal cultivation and were only concerned with the development and future of the Yousu family. They worked hard and devoted themselves to the development of the Yousu family.

All the patriarchs of the Yousu family had to be at the Mahayana realm.

A holy land that is famous throughout the heavens and the worlds must always have a few prominent figures, the Mahayana who presides over the overall situation, the upper three realms who assist in the situation, and good seedlings who have a clear path and future and can support the situation of the holy land in the future.

The Su family is now thriving, and the clan leader Su Lian, a Mahayana demon lord, has naturally made an indelible contribution. In addition to this Mahayana demon lord, the Su family also has more than twenty clan elders in the fusion realm and more than ten princes and princesses.

The royal family of the Yousu clan does not simply look at blood. After all, in terms of blood, the entire Yousu clan are descendants of the Nine-tailed Great Sage. The so-called princes and princesses are the ones with extraordinary talents in the entire Yousu clan and are good seedlings who have the potential to enter the Mahayana or even Pure Yang.

When these promising youngsters reach a certain age, they are sent to the Qingqiu royal court for unified training and become members of the Yousu royal family.

They can read the secret scrolls in the royal court, they can enjoy all kinds of resources and treasures in the royal court, they have many waiters to serve them and they don’t have to worry about anything else, even their schoolwork is taken care of by the elders, and the clan leader will give lectures in person. They are treated as the clan leader’s descendants, and they enjoy rights and treatment second only to the clan elders in Qingqiu.

They have only one mission: to practice the art and enter the upper three realms.

Those who are gifted, have extraordinary comprehension, and have entered the upper three realms can each enjoy a cave, live and practice alone, and control a force. As long as it is beneficial to the development of Qingqiu and their own practice, they can do it without anyone asking any questions.

As for those who are unable to break through to the realm of refining emptiness due to various reasons, the resources invested by the royal court in them will not be wasted. A banquet of a thousand chariots can be sent out to win over a force, which will make it worthwhile for the royal court to train them for so many years.

There are various reasons, including of course various hospitality greetings from "brothers and sisters" who are also members of the royal family.

But this is also a part of the practice of alchemy. After all, even with the Su family, wildness is still needed.

If you are not vigilant enough, if you are not strong enough, you cannot survive in the wild, and you cannot survive in the royal court either.

Win over those who can be won over, be wary of those who are strong, strike at those who are weak, and besiege those who are neither strong nor weak.
The various intrigues within the Qingqiu royal court are no less dirty than those in the human dynasties.

This is one of the reasons why Zhong Yuxiu has always looked down on Qingqiu: as a holy land, the way to retain its wildness is not to face the outside world but to face it internally. It is still playing the tricks and conspiracies of the human world. Even if it sees the flowers blooming and the oil boiling at present, what about the future?
In this holy land, when even the core members are thinking about harming each other, what future is there?
Right now we are all relying on the Nine-tailed Great Sage for support, but what if one day the Nine-tailed Great Sage is gone?
No wonder Qingqiu hasn't had a good seedling who could achieve the Pure Yang path for so many years. If a true Pure Yang seedling had emerged in the Xuanmen Holy Land, they would have mobilized the entire sect and would have helped him achieve a breakthrough, even if it meant colluding with other sects. How could they hold each other back like this?

Qingqiu is obviously the earliest holy land established in Jurong Realm. Even the Jilei Mountain in the west does not have as long a history as Qingqiu. However, such a Qingqiu has only one pure yang figure, the Nine-tailed Great Sage, ruling it up to now. No wonder the Nine-tailed Great Sage has been in seclusion in Shouqiu and cannot come out. In this case, if the Nine-tailed Great Sage makes any mistakes, Qingqiu, which looks majestic and magnificent, will collapse immediately.

Beautiful Qingtian Garden and clear water pool.

Zhong Yuxiu stood in front of the pavilion of the small building, quietly watching the rippling autumn water and the cranes flying into the sky. She saw the rosy clouds and the colored glaze light roaming in the sky, creating all kinds of beautiful scenes that were really beautiful.

Scenes like this are everywhere in Liqingtian Garden. Zhong Yuxiu has seen Su Zhao's extravagant nature so much that she is indifferent.

At this moment, in this pavilion by the pond, Zhong Yuxiu was more likely to be thinking rather than admiring the view. He was thinking about something that Su Zhao had just told him: a human True Lord had appeared in the Tenglong territory. According to rumors and the onlookers, the person who appeared was Penglai Lingyuan.

"Penglai Lingyuan."

"Lingyuan."

"He is the true disciple of Penglai after all. He found out where I was so quickly and chased me with such fanfare."

"Speaking of which, my Tianqiluo Star Plate is still in Lingyuan's hands.
As Zhong Yuxiu spoke, she waved her hand and magical weapons flew out from the precious clothes on her body.

The six-yang red dragon cover, the Xuanyuan Vajra bracelet, the thousand-star treasure gourd and the Xuansha gold hammer, four true treasures of the refining void, were suspended and swaying around Zhong Yuxiu. One after another, powerful and majestic auras unique to the true treasures of the upper three realms surged out, creating all kinds of strange visions.

These magic weapons that were once scattered in the Tianyuan Realm had long since returned to Zhong Yuxiu's hands. Not only had they repaired the damage caused by the battle with Jiang Sheng's magic weapon and restored their victorious posture, but their aura had even been enhanced.

That pot of pure Yang Qi did not just allow Zhong Yuxiu to refine back the three flowers on his head. His current level of cultivation had truly reached the highest level of Refining Void, and he was only one step away from the Fusion Level.

With his current level of cultivation and strength, meeting Jiang Sheng would never be like last time.

What carelessness, what contempt, are just the words of losers. Zhong Yuxiu was too lazy to say so much.

"I had originally planned to return to the Tianyuan Realm to decide the outcome, but I didn't expect that I would have to decide my life and death in this Jurong Realm in advance."

Muttering softly, Zhong Yuxiu looked up at the colorful sky that looked like a glass dream, and turned into a streak of light that shot up into the sky.

At the same time, on the other side of Liqingtian Garden, Su Zhao, who was drinking and watching dance, sensed something and looked up, just in time to see the rainbow flying into the sky.

A young man in red clothes who was also watching the dance laughed and said, "This Qiyuan Zhenjun is very noble. Although he looks polite, his attitude of keeping people at a distance clearly shows that he looks down on you and me."

Su Zhao had known Zhong Yuxiu's attitude for a long time, so he smiled and said, "After all, he is a Taoist from the Xuanmen Holy Land. Even if he is a little down and out, his vision is still very proud."

The young man in red clothes smiled and said, "I thought he could always maintain this arrogant look, but I didn't expect that he was so impatient just after learning that Ling Yuan came to Jurong Realm. It seems that Ling Yuan beat him badly in the battle in Tianyuan Realm that day."

Su Zhao glanced at his good friend and said, "Why, your good brother never told you the details of the battle in Tianyuan Realm?"

The red-clothed young master laughed and scolded: "You are such a person, even when you are here with me, you still can't help but have those little thoughts, and you want to sow discord between my brothers, don't you?"

"What kind of ability does my brother have? Asking him to watch these two fighting up close is like asking him to die, isn't that?"

Su Zhao didn't say much, just said: "Although Qiyuan is a little arrogant and doesn't think much of us monsters, he does have some ability. If he hadn't been too careless last time and hadn't activated his innate magical powers or used his innate magic weapon, he would never have lost to Lingyuan so easily."

"And Qiyuan has always been able to understand the situation. He will definitely not fight with Lingyuan right now. Don't worry, this person is the most important person."

"Chi Peng, the most reliable helper I've asked for this time, apart from Qi Yuan, is you. Please don't make any mistakes."

As he spoke, Su Zhao looked towards the young man in red clothes who was leaning on the gilded and jade couch beside him, watching the erotic singing and dancing of the fox clan with drunken eyes.

This young man in red clothes was tall and handsome, even though he was drunk. He was wearing a red-feathered fire velvet coat and a fire-element flying belt around his waist. He was leaning against a couch, looking unrestrained and uninhibited, with a sense of heroism and pride.

One of the twelve royal families in the Great Wilderness, the direct descendant of the Kunpeng clan, the Young Lord Chipeng, who is in the late stage of refining emptiness and has three flowers gathered at the top of the head.

This person is an old acquaintance of Su Zhao and also the most important card in Su Zhao's hand.

Although Zhong Yuxiu's reputation was well-known, there were too many emergencies on Zhong Yuxiu's side. From the beginning to the end, Su Zhao never felt that he could send both of his good sisters away at once. As long as he sent one away, this banquet of ten thousand chariots would not have wasted his hard work.

As You Su Zhao was thinking, Chi Peng Shao Jun suddenly asked, "You Su Zhao, is the thing you said true or false?"

"You know the relationship. This time I came to accompany you to do that thing without telling the old men in the clan. If something goes wrong, you and I won't say anything, but Qingqiu and Beiming will suffer!"

A hint of coldness flashed across Su Zhao's eyes: "Chi Peng, everything has been done. Is there any point in talking about this now?"

"If you and I don't try and fight, are we going to waste our lives in mediocrity?"

"Father values ​​my elder brother and my two good sisters, and the elders of your Beiming clan also place their hopes on your good brother, don't they?"

"If this continues, what will you and I gain by practicing the alchemy technique so hard?"

After hearing what Su Zhao said, Chi Peng remained silent, and finally nodded: "This time, in the name of your invitation to me to attend the Qingqiu Wancheng Banquet, I brought 10,000 guards from my clan, among which are 3,000 Fire Crow soldiers that I carefully trained and three of my loyal generals."

"I leave this power to you."

Hearing this, Su Zhao finally smiled and said, "That's it."

"You and I are not enemies, let alone rivals, but friends."

"The Kunpeng clan needs external aid, and my Qingqiu has the Su clan that also needs external aid. As long as you and I grow up, the Great Wilderness Beiming and Jurong Qingqiu will be of the same blood in the future. Even those Xuanmen holy places and Buddhist pure lands in the heavens and myriad worlds, who dares to underestimate you and me?"

"Don't worry, I have already sent my death squad with three thousand Gray Fox soldiers."

"Those three thousand Gray Fox soldiers are elite Taoist soldiers that I carefully selected using various natural treasures and secret methods to train. With our strength, what force in the Luwu world can stop us?"

Jurong Realm, Central Region.

A streak of light came from the east and then landed on a hill in the central region.

At this time, a temporary bamboo pavilion had been built on this low hill. A desk and two cushions were placed in the pavilion. A Taoist in a green cap and black robe was kneeling on one of the cushions, brewing tea.

As the flowing light fell, thousands of pure and immortal auras gathered to form the appearance of Zhong Yuxiu.

Zhong Yuxiu looked at Jiang Sheng in the bamboo pavilion, a complex look flashed in her eyes, but she still entered the bamboo pavilion and knelt down opposite Jiang Sheng.

The sky is filled with clouds and fog.

The area around the bamboo pavilion on the hill was extremely quiet, and the two people in the pavilion were silent.

Zhong Yuxiu watched Jiang Sheng brew tea. After a smooth performance of the tea art, a cup of tea was brought to her.

"The tea is wild tea picked randomly in the mountains; the water is stream water taken from the mountain stream nearby."

"They are not mysterious things, but they taste unique when you taste them. Fellow Daoist Qiyuan may want to try them."

Jiang Sheng said this and took the first sip of the tea in front of him.

Zhong Yuxiu was silent for a moment, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then nodded. This tea was indeed not some magical tea, it was very ordinary, but it did taste different.

Zhong Yuxiu knew clearly that this did not mean that he had been in a high position for too long and found these mundane things novel, but that the people who brewed the tea were different and thus had a different state of mind.

The one who brewed and served tea to him was Penglai Lingyuan.

Putting down the teacup, Zhong Yuxiu said in a hoarse voice: "Come to think of it, this is the second time that Daoist Fellow Lingyuan and I have met."

"Every time I think of Fellow Daoist Lingyuan's last sword strike, I feel a dull pain in my chest. If I hadn't been lucky, I would have been killed by Fellow Daoist's sword long ago."

Jiang Sheng didn't say much, and took out a small and exquisite star plate from his sleeve. Looking at the star plate with a round outer circle and a square inner circle, inlaid with stars and engraved with the mark of a unicorn, Zhong Yuxiu's eyes flashed with a gleam of light.

Tianqi Luoxing Plate, his natal treasure!

If Jiang Sheng had not intentionally removed the cover on the Tianqi Luoxing Plate, Zhong Yuxiu would not have been able to sense the location of her natal treasure so clearly.

Jiang Sheng placed the Tianqi Luoxing Plate in front of Zhong Yuxiu and said calmly: "This treasure is in my hand. I have never used it once. Please find out some information for me and I will return the treasure to you."

Zhong Yuxiu's eyelids jumped: "Lingyuan, what do you mean?"

Jiang Sheng chuckled: "I heard that you were in Jurong and were about to marry a noble lady from Qingqiu, so I came to see you. I thought you were planning to attach yourself to one side, but now it seems that there may be something hidden."

"In that case, I might as well return this thing to you. You can gather information for me, and we can both benefit from it."

Zhong Yuxiu sneered and looked at Jiang Sheng coldly: "Lingyuan, you almost killed me in the past and took away my life treasure. The hatred between you and me can be said to be a hatred that blocks the way. Today you still want me to find out information for you. Do you think that the hatred between you and me is just a game?"

"Aren't you worried that if the Tianqi Luoxing Plate falls into my hands, your life will be in danger in the future?"

"Aren't you worried that I'd spread false news to you?"

Jiang Sheng, however, was busy sipping his tea. "Whether the news is true or not, I will confirm it myself. If you don't want this life treasure, I will send it to Penglai Pavilion and then erase its spirit and leave it to the next generation."

"As for the concern for your life, you were not as good as me in the past, and you will not be able to defeat me in the future."

"Qiyuan, I'm not afraid to tell you that since I'm willing to return this thing to you, it's because I want to see your true ability."

"Since we are all in this Jurong Realm, let's see who is the real deal at the Wancheng Banquet. Don't let your life treasure be gone by then, and then blame others if you lose."

Jiang Sheng finished his cup of tea and stood up leisurely:
"It's up to you whether you spread the news or not, but you have to be clear about it."

"There has to be a reason to clear up the dirty tricks between my Penglai Dao Sect and your Qiankun Dao Sect."

"No one can save you at this Wancheng Banquet."

After saying this, Jiang Sheng left leisurely.

Zhong Yuxiu looked at Jiang Sheng's receding figure and drank the tea in her cup in silence. The more she drank, the more bitter her mouth felt.

After finishing a cup of tea, Zhong Yuxiu looked at the message left on Jiang Sheng's desk and remained silent for a long time. (End of this chapter)
