Chapter 322: Longevity Banquet, the Ancient Immortal's Will

Taixuan Sacred Mountain.

Fu Zhong bowed down with a solemn look on his face.

In front of him was a middle-aged man with a pale face without a trace of blood.

"Winter is over, and the snow monsters have all retreated. Things should be more stable in the next half month."

The middle-aged man looked at the flag in his hand.

This flag reflects the stars and divine light flows.

He put it away silently and said, "After waiting for so long, I can finally spare some time to deal with the matters at Qifeng Mansion."

Upon hearing this, Fu Zhong quickly raised his head.

The middle-aged man sighed and said, "The Great Elder once carried the Tiangang Banner and guarded the defense line for many years. He went deep into the forbidden area many times to spy on the intelligence there. He can be said to have made outstanding contributions."

"We are ordered to guard here. We fight every day, and every day our comrades die in the darkness."

"For someone like the Great Elder to retire victoriously from the battlefield is the best outcome in our minds."

"I thought he would be able to retire in the Holy Land after returning this time, but I didn't expect that he would be harmed by someone in Qifeng City and lose control."

"Before winter, after discussing with the flag masters of various tribes at Taixuan Divine Mountain, it was decided that I would step forward. After winter... I will leave Taixuan Divine Mountain and kill the leader of the Jiejin Sect of Qifeng Mansion to avenge the Great Elder!"

The middle-aged man said slowly: "It's just that the Great Elder has completely lost control and is blocking the official road between Licheng and Fengcheng in Qifeng Prefecture, forming a forbidden area."

"We are comrades in arms. He saved my life, so I should send him off."

Hearing this, Fu Zhong's expression became quite complicated and somewhat gloomy.

"As the Great Elder's disciple, you should go with me and see him off to his final resting place!"

"Junior understands."

"Okay, go pack your things and set off today to go to Qifeng City first."

"Qifeng City?" Fu Zhong whispered, "The deity worshipped in the city is the Wutong Goddess. She is the only sober old god in Qifeng City... She has no ill will towards the human race, so Jie Jin was not born in the city!"

"Do you know what big thing happened in the city?" the middle-aged man suddenly asked.

"Big event?" Fu Zhong was stunned for a moment, thinking that the big event that happened in the capital city was that the leader of the Jie Jin sect broke into the inner city and brought disaster to his own mentor, right?

"There are thirty-six Tiangang flags, and the one I hold is called Tianji."

The middle-aged man said calmly, "Three days ago, a meteor streaked across the night sky. Since then... the sky has been changing, the comet has been bright and dim, and it has been shifting back and forth, as if it was rushing left and right, trying to break free from its shackles and leave its original position..."

He looked at Fu Zhong and said, "This kind of astronomical phenomenon has appeared before at the other end of Taixuan Divine Mountain."

"That was the birth of the first master of the Refining Essence Realm after the ancient times. He broke the boundaries of the human body, just like lifting a layer of dark clouds over the heads of the human race."

"And the 'old god' who protected this first martial artist in the Refining Essence Realm left behind his divine body on that day. His original spirit shattered the void and completely escaped from Gui Ye."

"If my guess is correct, something has happened in Qifeng City that could affect the long-term future of the human race."

“Goddess Wutong wants to take this opportunity to break the void and get rid of the constraints!”

"Of course, I can see it, and those ancient beings who are sleeping can see it too!"

"So, senior wants to go to the capital city?" Fu Zhong hesitated.

“If I had a choice, I wouldn’t want to go… but last night a letter came from Emperor Li Shenzong, asking for help from Taixuan Divine Mountain in the name of the Holy Lord,” said the middle-aged man.

"Ask for help?" Fu Zhong was stunned.

"The Holy Lord is seriously injured and unable to take action. As for Li Shenzong, he is lucky. His abilities have improved by leaps and bounds, and his cultivation is unfathomable." The middle-aged man sighed, "With this kind of opportunity, he is not far from death."

"What?" Fu Zhong was shocked and asked, "How could Emperor Li Shenzong die? I just saw him before I came here..."

"The more outstanding one is, the faster one dies. Those who are born in this era are all miserable, especially people like him, who are even more miserable."

The middle-aged man said slowly: "As for someone like me, I may seem powerful and guard a place, but to put it bluntly, I am just a rough and uncouth man!"

After the voice fell, the middle-aged man retracted his gaze and said, "Fu Zhong, do you know why I think highly of you?"

"Why?"

"Because you have been reading books these days, trying to create a method to regenerate severed limbs."

"..." Fu Zhong touched his broken arm with a complicated expression.

"The path of cultivation for the human race is full of hidden dangers. When you reach the end, it will be a dead end."

The middle-aged man put his hands behind his back and said, "No matter how outstanding a warrior is, he is just walking along the old path, just a sword against the evil night!"

He sighed: "Only by creating new laws can we pave the way for the human race!"

Fu Zhong whispered, "Neither is indispensable. The creator of the law is obsessed with the classics. Without the protection of warriors, the human race cannot be stable."

The middle-aged man nodded slightly and said, "But without a leader to point out the way, we are all heading towards a dead end! If the road is wrong from the beginning, no matter how fast you go, no matter how steadily you walk, the end is the abyss..."

Fu Zhong seemed to have sensed something and whispered, "What do you mean, Senior? The changes in the prefecture city are due to the creation of new laws?"

"Nine times out of ten."

The middle-aged man looked solemn and said, "After the changes in the Heavenly Star, among the powerful beings that are now eyeing the Qifeng City... there may be guys from the human race, and the Wutong Goddess has too many restrictions, so she may not be willing to help."

He patted Fu Zhong on the shoulder and said, "Pack up as soon as possible. We have to get there early."

West of Canyu Palace.

This is the western end of Canyu Mansion.

Going further west is the vast desert.

Looking south, there is an endless ocean.

To the north, you can overlook the Taixuan Sacred Mountain.

This place is in Canyu Prefecture, known as the Forbidden Land of the Far West. It is eight thousand miles in radius, which is vast and boundless to ordinary people.

It is rumored that many ancient beings are sleeping in the depths.

In fact, according to information from the Sky Monitoring Department, there are human beings living in the forbidden area, and they have inherited the ancient civilization, built towns, and reproduced, and it can even be considered prosperous.

And three days ago, the ancient existence that had been sleeping in the far west suddenly woke up.

Although he is not the ancient god, he is the closest existence to the ancient gods on this earth!

"The South China Sea Dragon King is offering ten mermaids to celebrate his birthday!"

"The Great King of the Western Desert Yellow Sand offers the Wanling Sand to celebrate his longevity!"

"The Lord of the Nine Spirits River in the Canyu Mansion offers 30,000 sticks of incense to celebrate the longevity banquet!"

"The Lion King of Gaoming Mountain in Canyu Prefecture offers thirty-six boys and girls born on Yin days and Yin months to celebrate his birthday!"

"Dongshan Prefecture Lingyou Hou is visiting, offering two Daluo immortal bodies to celebrate the birthday banquet!"

Powerful beings from all sides showed up here, including some demons that were beyond their ranks.

But with the arrival of Lingyou Hou, the atmosphere in the field became a little quieter.

Among the powerful demons present, there are also some who have captured humans and proclaimed themselves as gods.

Similar to the three great gods in the Three Gods Valley, they enjoy incense and are called gods, but they are still demons in the world after all.

But Lingyou Hou is a ghost god who is truly recognized by the underworld!

"This person is from Dongshan Prefecture. I heard that he is not at home. His lair was overturned and even sealed off."

"It's not surprising. How much power can the ghosts and gods in the underworld have?"

“Don’t underestimate it. The Book of Life and Death in Lingyou Hou’s lair was taken out from the ancient underworld. It is a true ancient divine object! Therefore, the ghosts and gods in his lair are comparable to the ghosts and gods of the same rank in the ancient underworld…”

"Needless to say, this Lingyou Hou, it is rumored that he has refined some kind of treasure, which is not inferior to the Wanshou Zhenjun we came to pay homage to!"

"..."

Lingyou Hou looked quite young, with deep eyes. He walked slowly, looked forward, and said, "Wanshou Zhenjun, you have finally woken up after sleeping for many years."

"The celestial phenomena have changed drastically, and the earth's energy has risen, disturbing my slumber."

Behind the forbidden area, in the rolling fog, a huge head appeared, covered with scales and with horns on top.

"Oh?"

Lingyou Hou's eyes narrowed slightly, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a rolling sound beside him.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and saw a mountain of flesh, twisting constantly like a snail, dragging on the ground, approaching quickly.

"I've met the Marquis."

The flesh mountain opened its eyes and smiled solemnly, "I am the leader of the Jie Jin Sect of the Canyu Palace. I am now responsible for managing this land for the Wanshou Master."

He trembled all over and said, "This time, I am following the order of Wanshou Zhenjun to invite people from all over to hold this banquet!"

Lingyou Hou narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the open space in front of him, where hundreds of tables had already been set up.

Each table is quite huge.

There are already so-called dishes above.

"This first dish is made from the human warriors that I, Jie Jin, have captured from the cities near Canyufu Prefecture."

"They are just unconscious, but still alive. We will extract their souls and steam their bodies and eat them later."

"A warrior's qi, blood, and soul have always been a great tonic."

The leader of the Jie Jin Sect of the Canyu Mansion laughed and said in a low voice: "The second dish is not nutritious enough, but it tastes delicious..."

He said slowly: "Most of the people in Canyufu are poor and have rough skin and flesh. Only in this land governed by Wanshou Zhenjun can people have such delicate skin and tender flesh."

"They are all young girls who were sacrificed from various towns. All of them are from wealthy families and have been pampered since childhood. They are the daughters of the human race."

"On this land, there is the True Lord Wanshou, so they are not threatened by the strange night. They have never known monsters and evil spirits since childhood. They are lively and cheerful, and full of wisdom."

"Although it's not very nutritious, it's tender. You can eat it raw later. It's delicious."

"There is also a third dish...Spiritual stewed with ginseng soup."

The leader of the Jiejin Sect said with emotion, "It was the day before yesterday when the Ginseng King took the initiative to cut off two ginseng whiskers and ordered his little demons to deliver them to us! Yesterday, the True Lord Wanshou personally killed a human in the Refining Spirit Realm in the Canyu Palace, and captured three snow elves born this winter, turned them into water, and stewed them together!"

When the other demons heard this, they were already extremely excited, their eyes flickered, and their desires increased greatly.

Humans, they have eaten it.

However, humans who have cultivated their primordial spirits are extremely rare.

The ginseng roots of ancient ginseng are even more precious.

Snow elves used to be common, but now that spring has arrived and the frost and snow are melting, any that can remain undestroyed must be extremely powerful.

For example, there is a high mountain to the north of Taixuan Divine Mountain. The White Light King entrenched on it is the snow elf. He has profound Taoism and can keep the frost and snow on the top of the mountain for a long time. Even in the hot summer, there is still snow.

"The human race's primordial spirit, the ancient ginseng beard, the old snow spirit, isn't it better to drink a sip of soup today than to practice for ten years?"

Everyone was excited and looked at Lord Wanshou with blazing eyes, all of them were grateful.

However, at this moment, Lingyou Hou laughed.

"Even if you are Wanshou Zhenjun, you can't enjoy this kind of banquet every day, right?"

"This is not the territory of the human race, and Master Wanshou does not have so many false courtesies, ridiculous etiquette, and pedantic customs and civilizations."

"Lord Wanshou didn't hold this grand banquet for nothing."

Lingyou Hou looked solemn and asked, "True Lord, what do you want?"

The voice of Wanshou Zhenjun was as loud as a bell, and he said: "The strange changes in the sky three days ago were due to the calculations of the heaven by the Wutong Goddess. She wanted to ask for the 'Ancient Immortal's Will' to complete the old covenant!"

Lingyou Hou’s eyes were solemn.

He had heard of the existence of the ancient immortals' will.

Legend has it that in this era, all the old gods that appear in the world are bound by the "Will of the Ancient Immortals".

This is a contract from ancient times!
The Goddess of Wutong is the only ancient true god in the Three Prefectures who obeys the Old Testament!
"If we want to fulfill the Old Testament, we must have an opportunity to change the trend of the human race."

Wanshou Zhenjun's eyes flickered, and he said, "Find the source of the opportunity for me!"

"source?"

Lingyou Hou's eyes narrowed slightly.

The demons from all sides were all at a loss.

"The turning point of the human race's great trend must come from the human race."

Wanshou Zhenjun said: "The world is so big, and there are so many powerful people. I am only inviting a few of you to the banquet today... It's because you fellow Taoists have kept humans in captivity in your own lands and enjoyed their incense!"

His tone was deep and he said slowly: "I need to borrow the large amount of incense you have accumulated to intercept the will of the ancient immortals!"

-

It has been ten days since Lin Yan went into seclusion to build his inner divine realm.

At the beginning of his retreat, the Goddess Wutong had already communicated with the "last will of the ancient immortals" in the dark and above the nine heavens.

There are changes in celestial phenomena, and the brightness of comets varies.

There are turbulent situations and undercurrents on all sides.

Ancient demons, human ghosts and gods, and even the ancient gods who awakened from their slumber, all noticed the changes in the celestial phenomena.

Lin Yan was completely unaware of what was happening in the outside world.

He practiced quietly, and with the help of the Mirror of the Hundred Worlds, he expanded his perception of the inner divine realm.

Relying on his perfect landscaping method and the auxiliary skills newly created by Old Yan and others, he constructed the interior of the underworld in an extremely slow manner.

Every formation pattern and every rune track are like bricks and tiles, gradually piled up.

"This spirit gathering formation is not strong enough, and my true energy has been exhausted."

Lin Yan thought to himself: "This method still has a huge drawback. If it were someone else, they would have failed at this point... This point still needs to be improved!"

"Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. No matter how many flaws there are, we cannot stop now."

"Once we stop, the inner divine realm that has been built will collapse, which is a good thing, but it may endanger our own lives!"

"Wait until I come out of retreat, and then let the seniors perfect it. Right now... we can only succeed, not fail!"

Thinking of this, he had to replenish the evil energy in his body with true energy.

The scenes of the underworld are gradually generated.

Although it is just a rough framework, the overall structure is relatively stable.

During this period, Lin Yan noticed many subtle drawbacks of the new law.

If it were any other person at the peak of the Qi Refining Stage, these drawbacks would be the source of failure.

However, Lin Yan relied on his supernatural powers, using his evil spirit to add to his true energy, and completely crushed the past.

Starting from the Yongquan point under the foot.

It was as if a netherworld yellow spring had appeared and was winding away.

Build a bridge to the underworld and cross the two worlds of Yin and Yang.

Pavilions, palaces, prisons, mountains, cities... appeared one by one!

Inner scene of divine realm!

become!
boom!
Suddenly, a divine light appeared above the sky, like an eye, overlooking all living beings.

The ancient immortal's will is revealed above the nine heavens!
