Xianye

Chapter 419 Arriving in Xuandu Early, Mission Completed

For Chen Heng, if he wants to become Yuchen Daozi and rule Xiyi Mountain, the Danyuan Conference is undoubtedly a hurdle he must face.

Only by becoming the contemporary leader of Dan Yuan can one monopolize that good fortune.

He accomplished what Ji Fakai, Zhang Taichu and Zhang Shou, the true disciples, failed to accomplish in those days.

This would make it easier for him to suppress the voices within the sect, integrate various forces, and then control his power and authority to completely establish his own foundation in Xiaoming Lake!

And want to secure the position of the contemporary Danyuan leader.

True water of the underworld.

But it is a crucial part of it.

Since Xu Huangtian's trip is a foregone conclusion, then the matter of going to outer space to earn Taoist merit must be considered more or less. At least the two places should not go in opposite directions.

What he just took over was the matter about Xiping Land.

There are three continents in Xiping land, namely Bolu, Donglu and the last Gelu. Among them, the God of Earth is in charge of Bolu and acts as the central ruler.

But then again, although there is a God of Earth in this land who commands all the followers and dominates all living things, it is just an empty title.

Although the name sounds nice, he is actually just a puppet pushed to the surface by the various sects in Xiping Land to mediate the conflicts among various parties. He is in name only and cannot control many things.

But now Ban Su of Gezhou has his own troops and is becoming more and more arrogant.

In order to seek support and break through the barriers of realm, this person went to Zhenwu Mountain in Zhenwu Heaven and joined the army of Cui Ju, the true disciple of Zhenwu Mountain, and became one of the twenty-four external guardians of Zhenwu Mountain.

Therefore, at Cui Ju's suggestion.

Ban Su did his utmost to suppress the Yuchen Daoist lineage in Gezhou of Xiping Land and repeatedly pressed the issue.

Even the envoy sent by Xiping Dijun in Bolu to mediate with good intentions was humiliated by Ban Su's words and ignored.

To this day, although Ge Luyuchen's Daomai Lingzheng Temple has united with the remaining sects, it is no longer able to sustain itself.

Although the various sects suffered repeated defeats, their morale was greatly dampened.

The situation was so critical that they had no choice but to ask for help from Zong Yuchen...

“Not to mention that Xiping Land and Xuhuang Heaven are roughly in the same location, so there is no need to travel back and forth… Moreover, the Heavenly Herb is a great medicine used to tame the Yuanshen Kanli when achieving the Dharmakāya in the orthodox immortal way. It is extremely rare, but it cannot be missed!”

The way is:
A great medicine fell from the sky, its root is like Polygonatum, if people take it their hair will turn black again, it is good for treating children's fright, burning the medicine can be used as a torch, its leaves remain green in autumn and summer.

In the practice of immortality, above the golden elixir is the realm of the primordial spirit.

Not to mention the other miraculous uses of the Heavenly Grass, it alone can be beneficial to the practice of the Yuanshen.

Just this one.

It is truly an elixir of life.

And considering Chen Heng's current status, all his needs for cultivation will be provided by the sect, so he does not need to worry too much.

But something as precious as this.

I’m afraid no one would dislike it too much.

And even if he doesn't use it himself, he can give this great medicine to his disciples as a reward for their merits and to show favors.

Today is different from the past, he is no longer alone.

Since the ceremony of the true transmission, many people have volunteered to serve him as his wing and join his team. Even many elders have taken the initiative to humble themselves and become friends with him.

Among them is Shen Cheng, an old friend of the House of Commons.

He had already taken a written oath, and together with his senior brother, Master Xue Jing from the Shifang Palace, they all became retainers of Changli Island.

"Zhenwu Mountain, Cui Ju..."

Chen Heng thought to himself, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light, like cold lightning.

As far as he knew, Cui Ju was also a newly promoted true disciple, and his cultivation was not stronger than his.

And in terms of the military strength under his command, Chen Heng is not much inferior to him now.

Add the numbers together.

This is enough reason to go to Xiping to quell the rebellion!
What's more, he killed Ban Su and restored order to Ge Lu, which was a great achievement.

In this way, there is no need to hesitate!

After sorting out his thoughts, Chen Heng was not in a hurry to leave.

He chose carefully, imitated what many cultivators did, and left his own magical mark on many jade leaves. Then he bowed to the cultivators in the hall with a smile and strode out of the door.

It doesn’t matter whether it is completed or not, so naturally you should choose more.

Of course it would be best if we could do it along the way.

Not long after.

We walked across the golden bridge in the lake and arrived in front of two watchtowers.

Chen Heng glanced at the Taoist priests who were bowing and greeting, and saw that the fat Taoist priest Liu Shen who had spoken to him earlier had a very subtle expression on his face, so he knew that he had something to say.

Chen Heng nodded slightly, then suddenly turned into a red sword light and flew into the sky. He found a secluded valley in the mountains and landed there, standing with his hands behind his back.

After half an incense stick of time.

Sure enough, the fat Taoist Liu Shen also rode a beam of flame and hurried over.

When he saw Chen Heng, he did not say much, but stepped forward and bowed deeply, claiming that he was guilty of the death penalty.

"This is the first time I meet you and we have no grudges against each other. What crime have you committed?" Chen Heng helped him up with both hands and asked doubtfully.

"I dare not deceive you, Immortal. My surname is Liu, and my biological father is none other than Immortal Hong Ye, who is now the elder of Lingbao Palace..." Liu Shen suppressed his worries, forced a smile on his face, and said.

"Master Hong Ye of Lingbao Temple, Liu Fengye?"

Chen Heng's mind flashed, and he roughly guessed what this person was thinking.

He nodded secretly, then looked at Liu Shen, whose forehead was slightly sweaty, and said, "Are you from the Chishuo Liu family?"

"Exactly."

Liu Shen smiled bitterly.

……

……

The Chishuo Liu family is one of the twelve clans in Xudu, and their home is located in Chishuo Mountain in Dongmi Prefecture.

His ancestors had a great legacy and had produced many cultivators with great supernatural powers. Just on the surface, they had two powerful magic weapons hidden, the Sansu Jiuyi Flying Wheel and the Zhuri Chariot.

Even if you look at the entire twelve clans of Xu Dutian.

When it comes to clan strength, the Chishuo Liu family is among the top and should not be underestimated!
Speaking of the Chishuo Liu family, Chen Heng had some conflicts with them in the past.

When he was at Heming Mountain, Liu Lingzheng of the Chishuo Liu family once joined forces with a group of noble families to provoke him, but he was taught a lesson and lost face.

Later, Liu Guan came to help, but was forced back by him when he took out the Yuanxu Demon Subduing Sword and dared not to make a move.

But today, he no longer takes his so-called opponents seriously.

Liu Ling had already been beheaded by He Manzi in Liuhuo Honghua Cave Heaven, and his life was killed by a single sword.

As for Liu Guan, he successfully became one of the ten great disciples and became a disciple of Yu Chen.

But now his pills are only of middle quality, and he is even surpassed by his former great enemy Shen Cheng, so he is not a threat at all.

Seeing Chen Heng pondering in silence, Liu Shen became even more confused.

He did not care about the speech he had prepared earlier, and said hurriedly:

"Master, please allow me to report that although we all have the surname Liu, the 'Liu' in my father's name is not the same as theirs. We are not of the same mind. My ancestor was born as a son-in-law. Although the direct descendants of the Liu family do not say it on the surface, they all look down on my lineage in their hearts!

The Immortal is now the hope of the world and the heart of the gods... In this case, the Yuchen country should be ruled by the Immortal!
My father is willing to serve under the Immortal Master and serve him wholeheartedly. Please show mercy and forgiveness!"

"To be the hope of the four seas, to be called the heart of the gods... this is too much."

Chen Heng shook his head slightly: "But since your father, Master Hong Ye, is willing to help me, why not write a letter? This place is not a place for discussion right now."

"There are so many cars and horses in front of the immortal's door, I'm afraid the letter is..."

Liu Shen gave a dry laugh.

He met Chen Heng's gaze, hesitating for a long time, and finally lowered his head in silence, not knowing what to say.

In fact, it had been agreed earlier that Liu Shen would take Liu Fengye's handwritten letter to Changli Island to pay a visit.

However, Liu Shen was a coward and had no courage.

He thought to himself that there were many spies among the nobles in Xiaoming Lake, and his move to Changli Island would inevitably arouse resentment and dissatisfaction among the nobles.

It is said that it is easy to hide from an open gun but hard to prevent a hidden arrow.

At the beginning, they all dared to kill Chen Heng directly. If they had not alarmed Jun Yao of Xiyi Mountain, how could the man in front of them have survived?
If I were to be targeted like this, even with the protection of my biological father Liu Fengye, my life would be in danger.

On the other hand, there is the possible threat from the aristocratic families.

On the other hand, it was his father's instructions.

After worrying for too many days, today I suddenly saw Chen Heng coming to the Merit Hall on his own initiative.

With a great opportunity in front of him, Liu Shen had no time to be afraid and had to grit his teeth and come to pay a visit.

Seeing Liu Shen's hesitation, Chen Heng glanced at him and said without saying much:

"I understand your intention. I wonder if your father has any letter for me?"

"Yes, yes!" Liu Shen hurriedly took out a letter from his sleeve.

Chen Heng raised his hand to take it, opened it and read it once, his expression unchanged, he just handed the letter back to Liu Shen and said:

"Please take a look."

Liu Shen was surprised when he heard this, but he couldn't refuse, so he had to take it.

The more he looked down, the more bitter his expression became.

In the end, it was as if I had just chewed a piece of coptis root, and my eyes were slightly dazed...

"I also want to infiltrate the Liu family as a spy? Oh, Infinite Heavenly Lord! My father never told me this!" Liu Shen cried out inwardly.

"I know your father's sincere intentions, but there is no need to worry about the deadly spies. Not to mention that the aristocratic family has tight defenses, it is difficult to achieve any results... and since your father and you are willing to lend me a helping hand, how dare I treat wise men with disrespect and disregard your lives?"

When Liu Shen was complaining in his heart, Chen Heng suddenly smiled and said sincerely:
"In three days, I will hold a banquet on Changli Island. All the guests will be fellow travelers. If your father and you do not mind, why not have a face-to-face meeting?"

Liu Shen was surprised and happy to hear that Chen Heng would not use them as spies.

If this person were pardoned, he would feel so excited that he could not extricate himself.

Even after half a while, when Chen Heng said goodbye and left, Liu Shen still felt as if he was in a dream, with his feet floating.

After returning to the Merit Hall in high spirits and taking over the guard duty.

He did not stay long and hurried to his father's cave. When he saw his father, he explained everything to him.
Liu Shen raised his head carefully, but saw that his father Liu Fengye's face had no joy at all, but was silent.

"Forget it, whatever! He really wants to serve me. Since he wants to do this, why should I hide it? I will do it. What is there to be afraid of?"

After a while, Liu Fengye put down the teacup solemnly.

After pacing in the hall several times, he gritted his teeth and clenched his hands into fists.

"Father..." Liu Shen was a little confused.

"My achievements in this life are destined to be limited. It's fine for you to stay in the Liu family, but it will be difficult for Pang'er to make a name for himself in the future!" Liu Fengye didn't even look at him, but just sighed.

Liu Pang is the son of Liu Shen. He is quite intelligent. Although he has not yet entered the lower monastery to practice Taoism, he has always been by Liu Fengye's side and received his teachings.

Hearing Liu Fengye's words at this time, Liu Shen didn't understand for a moment. After being stunned for a long time, he suddenly lost his voice:
"Then the dead room mentioned earlier——"

"As expected, my little attempt to protect myself could not be hidden from that person. I am really embarrassing myself."

Liu Fengye waved his hand to interrupt:

"Three days later, you will come with me to Changli Island for a banquet!"

"..."

Liu Shen's eyelids twitched and he was about to say something but stopped.

After being glared at in the end, he swallowed his doubts and agreed obediently.

……

……

soon.

Three days passed in a flash.

On this day, a flying pleasure boat passed through a breeze cyclone and slowly stopped above the waves of the sea of ​​clouds. Then the figures of Liu Fengye and Liu Shen appeared from it.

Liu Fengye looked intently and saw a sacred island standing tall above the vast ocean, with faintly visible clouds and mist, and a golden and brilliant appearance.

All the scenery on the island seemed to be surrounded by a layer of hazy smoke, looming and making it difficult to distinguish their shapes, showing the ethereal changes of the immortals...

"Changli Island..."

Liu Fengye took a few tentative breaths and nodded.

Changli Island is a sacred island of immortals with a marvelous creation.

Now, because of Chen Heng's status as a true disciple, he is specially taken care of by the people of Shifang Palace, and is given extra support from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

In this way, it is no less a blessed place than any other ordinary place.

The spiritual energy on the island was so abundant that Liu Fengye had to treat it seriously even though there was a forbidden magic circle between them.

"What a spiritual island! If it were placed outside the Great Swamp, it would be a great asset that could be passed down through the ages. I wonder how many people would break their heads over it! Even so, it is probably worthless in this person's eyes."

Liu Fengye's eyes flickered:

“If he makes some achievements in the future, overpowers the Nine Provinces Immortals, and becomes the contemporary leader of Dan Yuan, plus his first-grade golden elixir.

At that time, I believe it would be convenient for the master to push his disciple to the position of Daozi.

Although Changli Island is nice.

But compared with Xiyi Mountain..."

Just as Liu Fengye was daydreaming, the clouds suddenly parted and light came up from below, illuminating all directions.

It turned out that the restriction on Changli Island was lifted, and a group of strong men and servants came out to meet the needs.

"If I can't hide it, then I can't hide it!"

As expected, Liu Fengye put away the carriage, greeted Liu Shen, and strode into the island with the waiter.

As he traveled along the way, he saw many exotic flowers and plants, colorful birds and rare animals.

When he climbed up to Yupan Peak, the highest point on the island, Liu Fengye finally saw a majestic palace coming into view.

The hall was painted in red lacquer and gold, with railings decorated with swastikas. There were already quite a few people sitting on the seats.

"..."

Liu Fengye took a deep breath.

Just as he was about to walk into the hall, an old voice suddenly sounded behind him and pulled him back.

"Master Liu? Why are you here?!"

Liu Fengye looked back.

He saw an old man with a short beard and dressed in fancy clothes looking at him in astonishment on the mountain road not far away, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Mr. Xie? I was just about to ask you, this is Changli Island, what are you doing here?" Liu Fengye's pupils shrank and he couldn't help but lose his voice.

The two looked at each other, both showing a bit of embarrassment at being suddenly exposed.

The person opposite is named Xie Jing, and he is the patriarch of the Changyou Xie family.

Although the two had different status in their respective clans, they were both members of aristocratic families. Liu Fengye was naturally familiar with him, and the two had even gone out together to subdue demons.

But he didn't have time to think about anything now after greeting Xie Jing.

The two looked at each other.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say...

"Going together?"

After all, Xie Jing was old and had seen a lot of the world. He coughed lightly and smiled actively.

"Go together, go together!"

Liu Fengye put his thoughts aside, stroked his beard and smiled as if nothing had happened.

"..."

Liu Shen was stunned and followed carefully behind.

After the two men stepped into the hall, everyone in the hall looked at them and came to greet them, and the scene immediately became lively.

"Shen Cheng, and his senior brother Master Xue Jing... I heard that these two travel to Changli Island quite often. They must be Master Chen's confidants. It seems that we must not offend them!"

Liu Fengye glanced at Shen Cheng and a square-faced Taoist with a black beard, and thought to himself.

He did not dare to be negligent in receiving the greetings from the two men and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed.

"I know Sun Feng from Shifang Palace. He will get along well with Changli Island!"

"Yang Kezhen from Daolu Palace, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Master Mijun? Isn't he famous for not caring about other people's business? Why is he here?"

"And Lu Zhengfu from the Dazhi Palace..."

……

Although there are not too many people in the hall, the reputations of these few people are not small. They all have magical powers and are even better than himself.

After the greetings, Liu Fengye became more cautious and felt confused.

And this time.

Xie Jing beside him suddenly uttered a light exclamation.

Liu Fengye followed his gaze and saw another person climbing up the mountain path and arriving in front of the temple.

This man had eyes as sharp as torches, a green face, and was about ten feet tall, very burly.

But it’s not Qiao Qiwu from the Qiao family in Mishan, so who else could it be?

"Here comes another one..."

Xie Jinglao's brows relaxed slightly.

Liu Fengye remained silent, seemingly lost in thought.

"Why are these two people here?"

Qiao Qiwu was slightly surprised, but was too lazy to think about it. He nodded and stepped over the threshold.

After exchanging pleasantries, everyone returned to their seats.

At this time, there were soft music of Sheng and Xiao in the hall, and all kinds of delicacies, exotic fruits and fine wines were placed on the table.

But neither Xie Jing nor Liu Fengye had any intention of picking up their chopsticks.

Among the three aristocrats present, only Qiao Qiwu seemed to have no other thoughts. He just raised his glass and drank, and urged people around him to drink.

"This guy, this guy..."

Liu Fengye shook his head helplessly and was about to raise his glass to join in the conversation.

But suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and then his eyes turned and his expression unconsciously straightened a little.

Xie Jing also put down the wine bottle, his eyes flashing slightly.

Footsteps were heard in the distance, and soon a young Taoist came out from behind the Xuanli screen.

Liu Fengye saw that the Taoist was wearing a golden crown, dressed in a Xuanyu Wanshu robe, with thin eyebrows and bright eyes, like the rising sun, with an extraordinary demeanor.

Moreover, there were layers of clear light halos surging around him, attracting the spiritual energy in the hall to gather and rush into the air, like a huge wave surging high, majestic and daunting!
"This kind of energy... How long has he been in the process of making the elixir? Compared to the time when he made the True Transmission Ceremony, it is definitely more than one decade stronger! Is the first-grade golden elixir really so mysterious? Can he have such good fortune?"

Liu Fengye and Xie Jing were both shocked and greatly shocked.

"Thank you all for taking the time to come and bring honor to my humble home. I'm sorry for the inadequate hospitality. Please don't mind and drink this cup to the full." Chen Heng bowed his head and expressed his respect first.

"I would like to use this cup to wish the Immortal to arrive in Xuandu soon and complete his mission!"

Xue Jing, Sun Feng and others all stood up and bowed, congratulating him.

Amidst the rumbling sound, Qiao Qiwu had already joined in the greetings.

"..."

Liu Fengye and Xie Jing looked at each other and were shocked.

But after seeing this scene, there was a moment of silence, and the two finally had no hesitation and suppressed all the thoughts in their hearts.

He just followed suit, bowed his head respectfully, and congratulated loudly:

"I sincerely wish that the Immortal will arrive in Xuandu soon and complete his mission!"
