Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune starts from Tianshi Mansion.

Chapter 473. Unexpectedly Smooth (Two-in-One Chapter)

The Saha world is connected to the human world of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and there is no limit to the exchanges between them. Although the disciples of the Tianshi Mansion in Longhu Mountain rarely walk on the human world, since Taoism replaced Buddhism, people from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms often come to make pilgrimages.

In addition, due to the exchanges between the Lingshan Wumen and the descendants of the Zhenwu Temple of the Later Han Dynasty, some news gradually spread in the Saha world.

Bai Mei also knew everything Qin Caiwei saw and heard.

But she suddenly brought up the big rules, which made Lei Jun a little concerned.

The other party was obviously looking at the cracking Saha world in front of him, so he had some associations with the great law.

"As far as I know, it is true, but there is currently no stable void portal connecting Daju and the war-torn world." Lei Jun said.

Bai Mei retracted her gaze and looked again at the huge gap in the Saṃsāra that appeared from time to time: "Before the division of the human world, I heard that the great law had cracked."

Lei Jun: "Isn't it because of the catastrophe at the end of the Han Dynasty?"

Bai Mei: "Well, before that, the big stool should have been broken."

Lei Jun hesitated to speak.

Bai Mei seemed to know his problem: "It is true that Daju had experienced the struggle between Confucian monks and warriors before, but the cracks and damages of the heaven and earth as a whole happened even earlier.

Successive rulers have tried to mend the rift but to no avail. Rumor has it that the rift there is quite special. "

Lei Jun remained calm when he heard this: "I heard that he had a close relationship with the old members of the Heavenly Palace during the late Han Dynasty."

Bai Mei: "I have heard about it, but I don't know the details. I only heard that your sect's Master Zhuang Tianshi killed Yan Rizhong, the last martial immortal who held the scepter."

"Our sect's founder, Mr. Zhuang..." Lei Jun remained expressionless, thinking that what Bai Mei said matched the situation in Daju.

The abyss of time there is indeed completely different from the rift on this side of the Saha world.

The Saha world here only involves the mysteries of space.

On the other side, it involves the mystery of time.

Not only Xu Yuanzhen, Lei Jun was also quite curious about that place.

But he also has more things to focus on right now.

Venerable Shanzhihui, Taoist Zhoutian and Demon Saint Kunpeng are still around, and Venerable Puguang also left the Saha world some time ago.

Even if we don't consider other people, these are all hidden dangers of varying degrees of severity.

At present, Wang Guiyuan is studying the former site of Leiyin Temple in order to further study Venerable Puguang and the Leiyin Temple lineage.

After Lei Jun finished his recuperation and refining treasures in Huangquan, he rushed to Saha with the same plan.

..............................

While Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan were studying Buddhism in Saha, Tang Xiaotang was already approaching the gate of Canghuan.

She put her hands behind her back and looked around with great interest.

The clouds and mist under his feet were no longer golden, but had turned into a very light color, like transparent white clouds.

There was another person on the white cloud, also a female Taoist priest wearing a purple Taoist robe, and it was Qin Caiwei.

Flying beside the white cloud was a phoenix with a completely green body.

"Fellow Daoist Zhuyin, has your brother come out of Canghuan to see us?" Tang Xiaotang retracted his gaze and asked curiously.

Qingluan Zhuyin opened her mouth and said, "Yes, Brother Fengming sent me this message. He wants to meet Taoist Master Qin of your sect."

Qin Caiwei stood behind Tang Xiaotang and said, "These are just trifles of my skill."

Tang Xiaotang turned around and patted Qin Caiwei on the shoulder: "Well done!"

Qin Caiwei thought that she loved picking plants and trees, but she didn't expect that this would lead to an invitation from the spiritual beasts in the universe.

This made her feel a little uneasy.

She loves plants and trees. In addition to her own expertise, she has also received a lot of guidance from Bai Mei.

Now that Bai Mei is not here, she has to rely on herself.

However, she had already benefited a lot from communicating with Qingluan Zhuyin before. Now that she could meet her cousin who was said to have much better skills than her, Qin Caiwei was even more eager to see him.

Before reaching the agreed location, Tang Xiaotang's eyes flashed and he looked into the distance.

After a long time, Qin Caiwei looked into the distance and vaguely saw colorful light flowing among the mountains.

In the colorful light, a figure appears and disappears.

When she got closer, she could clearly see the silhouette of a bird in the colorful light.

Compared to the blue phoenix beside the white clouds, the bird is much smaller.

According to the records in ancient books, the whole body is golden with flashing five-colored light. It stands in the air, about six feet high, with extremely long tail feathers and five words on its body.

It is the legendary phoenix.

The phoenix was also quietly watching the two people approaching.

His gaze lingered on the faint white cloud under Tang Xiaotang's feet for a moment, but he did not make any further movements.

"Nagine."

The phoenix turned its gaze towards Qingluan Zhuyin, whose cry was clear and melodious.

"These two are Master Tang and Taoist Qin from the Heavenly Master's Mansion in Mount Longhu." Qingluan Zhuyin introduced the two parties: "This is my brother, Feng Ming."

Strictly speaking, they are not of the same ethnic group in the absolute sense, but they have always had a close relationship.

"This Taoist Priest Qin is the one I mentioned to you before, the one who re-cultivated the Yaolin tree from dead seeds..."

When Qingluan Zhuyin introduced Qin Caiwei, Tang Xiaotang looked up and down at Fenghuang Fengming with undisguised curiosity.

Qin Caiwei was frightened watching from the side, but she forced herself to calm down and said, "Senior Zhu Yin, you are too kind. I can't cultivate the Yaolin tree again without the advice of other teachers in our sect."

Fenghuang Fengming seemed unaware of Tang Xiaotang's gaze. After quietly listening to Qingluan Zhuyin's introduction, he nodded and asked:

"I see that Taoist Qin has brought the Yaolin sapling with him?"

Although the question was simple, Qin Caiwei was impressed in her heart.

She did bring the Yaolin sapling, but it was hidden in a miniature capsule. Due to the capsule's obstruction, the outside world should not be able to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, the phoenix revealed the truth.

"Senior Zhuyin mentioned that Cang Huan was in need, so I came with the saplings with the permission of Uncle Tang."

Qin Caiwei smiled and said, "It's not a rare species. I'm sorry to make you laugh, Senior Feng Ming."

Fenghuang Feng said clearly: "No, I should thank you two for your generosity. Although Cang Huan is not peaceful right now, it is impolite of me to entertain guests outside Cang Huan. If you two Taoists do not mind, please come into Cang Huan's house and let me entertain you carefully as an apology."

Qin Caiwei was surprised to hear this.

Qingluan Zhuyin was calm.

The current situation in the universe is complicated, and it has just been connected with the human world.

They had limited knowledge of the outside world, and out of caution, Fenghuang Fengming had just personally left the Canghuan and entered the human world to meet Tang Xiaotang and Qin Caiwei.

Although the Yaolin saplings are rare and precious, they are far from enough to make them let down their guard and be blinded by greed.

However, Fenghuang Fengming has an ability that is little known to the outside world even in Canghuan.

He can distinguish good from evil, sense danger and avoid danger.

At the moment, it seems that the two people from the Tianshi Mansion have no ill intentions and have successfully passed the test of their clan brother... Qingluan Zhuyin thought to herself.

If not, what Fenghuang Fengming said would be another matter.

Qin Caiwei was a little surprised.

If it was just her, it would be okay for her to accept the invitation. After all, her current cultivation level is still the seventh level, so it is easy to control.

Tang Xiaotang is another matter entirely.

The fifth level of the Nine Heavens is perfect, and he is a great Taoist master who has already achieved the state of Five Qis.

Even her strength cannot be measured by that of ordinary cultivators at the fifth level of the Ninth Heaven.

At a time when the two great immortals, Saint Lord Haoyang and Saint Lord Huaming, were confronting each other within Canghuan, Tang Xiaotang entered Canghuan and might even affect the overall situation of Canghuan.

In this situation, letting her enter Cang Huan so easily, is it because the other party has set a trap, or is it that they are planning to bribe Tang Xiaotang to help?
While Qin Caiwei was curious, she heard Tang Xiaotang beside her saying with a smile: "In that case, we won't be polite."

...No, Uncle Tang, are you really that rude?

Qin Caiwei turned to look at her uncle-master and was surprised again.

Tang Xiaotang, however, looked normal.

Just like how Fenghuang Fengming didn't sense any ill will towards her, Tang Xiaotang also didn't feel that the other party had any ill will, or that there would be any disadvantages in the future for her.

In that case, she had nothing to hesitate about.

Master Tang had long wanted to go into Canghuan to take a look, but Wang Guiyuan had previously worked hard to explain to her that rash entry might lead to misunderstandings.

Now it’s all right, just go in with confidence.

Fenghuang Fengming nodded to Qingluan Zhuyin, and they went ahead, while Tang Xiaotang followed with Qin Caiwei.

Two birds and two people came together to the entrance of the void portal leading to the universe in the human world of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

At this time, other strange birds were seen circling outside the Canghuan Gate.

Tang Xiaotang and Qin Caiwei first saw two fire crows, and also two strange birds, which looked like the rare species Bifang recorded in ancient books.

Seeing Fenghuang Fengming, they did not approach him, but only spoke from a distance: "Master Biwu Mountain, who are these two?"

The phoenix flew straight into the portal of Cang Huan, "My guest."

The Fire Crows and Bi Fang did not ask any more questions and watched Tang Xiaotang, Qin Caiwei, and Qingluan Zhuyin enter Cang Huan together.

In the vast universe, the sky is clear and from afar, it seems that there is an extremely tall sacred tree standing in the center of heaven and earth.

The treetops are as vast as a canopy, and sunlight diffuses from above to all around, illuminating the earth and the sky.

Tang Xiaotang watched with great interest: "Is that the cave of Saint Haoyang over there?"

Qingluan Zhuyin introduced: "Yes."

Jinwu Haoyang has been in charge of the universe for many years.

Long before the great catastrophe at the end of the Han Dynasty, he had already been an immortal spirit, and he has remained so until today.

Only in recent years has he encountered a newly emerging challenger.

The true dragon is bright.

Although Jinwu was arrogant, he was not without magnanimity. He allowed new fairies to rise.

However, he would not allow the other party to challenge his position as the Lord of the Universe.

"If it was Saint Hua Ming who had been in charge of the world, he would not be afraid of the rise of new immortals, but he was unwilling to accept the pressure from the existence above him."

Although he is a spiritual bird, Qingluan Zhuyin spoke of Saint Lord Huaming in a very peaceful tone: "He once said that he was grateful for Saint Lord Haoyang's generosity in the past, so he would leave Canghuan to Saint Lord Haoyang in the future. He will leave and find another place to be his cave, but he will definitely surpass Saint Lord Haoyang."

Jinwu Haoyang's reaction to this was not to be called anger, but more like a request for the other party to come forward.

The war between the two ancient creatures at the immortal level has not officially broken out yet, but the atmosphere in the universe is already quite tense.

Fenghuang Fengming was quite calm.

He took Tang Xiaotang and Qin Caiwei all the way south.

Gradually, another strange tree came into Tang Xiaotang's sight.

The trees are not tall, but they are more conspicuous than the surrounding hills. They are flashing with colorful light and have an extremely strong breath of life.

"The sacred Wutong tree?" Tang Xiaotang's eyes lit up.

Fenghuang Fengming introduced: "This is Senior Chaoyang."

The branches of the shining sacred tree swayed slightly, and a slightly old but elegant voice came from it: "I haven't seen Taoist friends from the Tianshi Mansion of Longhu Mountain for many years. Today I am honored to meet the legitimate successor of the Taoist talisman. Chaoyang pays tribute."

Tang Xiaotang bowed like a Taoist and said, "Thank you for your kindness, senior." Phoenix Fengming immediately landed on the branch of the phoenix tree facing the sun.

He said, "Master Tang and Master Qin are so enthusiastic about helping us, so we should give them something in return. However, I have some things to prepare recently, and I am short of money, so I can only ask Senior Chaoyang for help."

Qin Caiwei had talked with Qingluan Zhuyin before, and she was interested in looking for spiritual species and rare flowers, as well as searching for natural treasures rich in vitality for her seniors.

Fenghuang Fengming is obviously preparing for the changes that may occur in Canghuan next.

It’s not entirely about the possible battle between the Golden Crow and the True Dragon.

It also involves the accidental opening of the portal to Cang Huan.

To some extent, it was precisely because there was going to be a battle between the Golden Crow and the True Dragon that Phoenix Fengming was more concerned about the suddenly opened portal to the Canghuan.

But he would not act on his own initiative and seal the gate of Canghuan.

As the branches of the Wutong tree swayed slightly towards the sun, a branch of the sacred Wutong tree fell off from his body and flew in front of Tang Xiaotang and Qin Caiwei.

Qin Caiwei was even more surprised.

This is much more precious than her Yaolin sapling.

The first thought in her mind was that Fengming, the Phoenix, who was also a spiritual bird, wanted to get an expert to help Jinwu Haoyang.

But Fenghuang Fengming simply said, "I also like all kinds of spiritual plants and rare flowers. I hope that fellow Taoists from Longhu Mountain can help me find and transplant them. Thank you in advance. If I have been rude, please forgive me, Taoist priests."

He had not been worried that Tang Xiaotang's entry into Cang Huan might harm him, and now he was not afraid that Tang Xiaotang and Qin Caiwei, who he met for the first time, would simply steal his sacred Wutong branch and run away.

Tang Xiaotang said carelessly: "Our sect should thank you first. As for the spiritual plants, our sect will give all the power to Junior Sister Hua Wei to take charge. If there are any difficulties, you can appeal to the mansion. We will support you in whatever you need."

"Disciple obeys your command." Qin Caiwei agreed immediately, but then looked left and right.

Is this matter so simple to settle?
Although her previous talks with Qingluan Zhuyin went smoothly, the deal was reached more quickly when it came to Tang Xiaotang and Fenghuang Fengming.

Qin Caiwei knew that her own uncle Tang had always been a vocal and outspoken person.

The ancient spirit opposite is pure and elegant, and is no less capable when it comes to talking about things...

Although Qin Caiwei was surprised, she immediately cleared her mind of all distracting thoughts when she saw this.

There were countless exotic flowers and plants in the continuous mountains surrounding Wutong Chaoyang, which made her feel dazzled.

If she hadn't been concerned about her master and Elder Bai, she would have wanted to beg Ken Fenghuang Fengming to allow her to settle here for a few years.

"Is it possible to introduce me to other Taoist friends in this world?" Tang Xiaotang said with a smile.

Fenghuang Fengming said calmly, "Of course it's fine."

Tang Xiaotang then ordered Qin Caiwei to first send the branch of the sacred Wutong tree back to the Saha world to Lei Jun, and then she would collect a batch of spiritual plants from the human world and bring them to Canghuan.

Fenghuang Fengming specifically asked Qingluan Zhuyin to see him off.

After Qin Caiwei thanked them, she left Canghuan with Qingluan Zhuyin.

Lei Jun received the branch of the sacred Wutong tree, and he and his senior brother Wang Guiyuan stared at each other in wide eyes for a rare occasion.

...Things went so smoothly that it was completely beyond his expectations.

"...Uncle Tang has left a few branches and leaves, and asked Master, don't worry about her expenses." Qin Caiwei said.

After listening to Qin Caiwei's general description of what happened, Lei Jun finally understood and had a rough idea in his mind.

"It's quite good." Lei Jun played with the branch of the sacred Wutong tree in his hand.

Wang Guiyuan laughed: "Such an opportunity is jointly promoted by both parties. It is rare to see it in the ages. We should be more careful, consider more, and prepare more in our daily lives."

Lei Jun nodded and looked at Qin Caiwei: "As Senior Sister Tang said, I will leave this matter to you, Junior Sister Hua Wei. I will arrange for other fellow disciples to take over your duties in Saha, so don't worry."

Qin Caiwei bowed and took her leave: "Yes, Master Uncle."

Soon, Lei Jun received further information from Tang Xiaotang: "There are so many spiritual birds. In addition to the phoenix and the Luan bird, there are also many other spiritual birds such as the Bifang, Chongming bird, and the fire crow. There are also many plants and trees that have spiritual cultivation.

I have also seen both the Golden Crow Haoyang and the True Dragon Huaming. They are bound to compete to see who is better. As for whether they will fight to the death, I don't think that's certain.

I quite like the atmosphere here at Cang Huan."

The longer he stayed there, the more Tang Xiaotang understood the situation.

Phoenix Fengming can basically be regarded as the third strongest person in the universe after True Dragon and Golden Crow. In terms of realm, he is equivalent to a strong person at the perfect level of the ninth heaven of the human race. He is also gifted and has extraordinary strength.

Both the Golden Crow Haoyang and the True Dragon Huaming praised him highly.

Wutong Chaoyang, who lives and accompanies him, is the oldest creature in the universe, second only to Jinwu Haoyang, and has a deep foundation.

But every bird and every tree prefers quietness to movement, they are of peaceful temperament and do not engage in conflict with the world.

"It can be basically confirmed that it was not the spirit beast in the universe that opened the void portal."

Tang Xiaotang said: "However, when the Void Realm was unstable, there might have been things from the Cang Huan that were accidentally left outside, giving the outside world the possibility of opening the Cang Huan portal."

"Is that so..." Lei Jun thought thoughtfully.

He shook his head slightly, gathering his scattered thoughts: "Will the battle between Holy Lord Haoyang and Holy Lord Huaming take place in the near future?"

Tang Xiaotang: "It has not been decided yet. The two of them will make a battle agreement openly and openly, and then all living beings in the world will witness it and compete with each other."

Lei Jun: "They are indeed very arrogant, so arrogant that it is a bit uncomfortable to listen to them."

Tang Xiaotang laughed and said, "You have a lot of ideas. Think about it more. If you can't use it in Cang Huan, you may be able to use it outside."

Lei Jun: “That’s true.”

"Oh, right, I've been to the ancient Fusang tree of Saint Haoyang. Although the sun's radiance shines everywhere, there is no ready-made solar essence."

Tang Xiaotang knew that Lei Jun had sublimated the Tai Chi body, and currently lacked the solar and lunar treasures. She had paid attention to it this time, but had gained nothing for the time being.

Lei Jun smiled and said, "Natural resources and treasures cannot be forced, so we should just go with the flow."

"Okay, I'll continue to keep an eye on it for you." Tang Xiaotang decided to stay in Cang Huan for the time being, and prepare to return after the two immortals set a date for the battle. The environment there would not affect her daily practice.

Lei Jun stayed in the Saha world and collected the branches of the sacred Wutong tree first.

He picked a few sycamore leaves from the branches and refined them with peace of mind.

After the Mahayana universe unfolded, Lei Jun sat cross-legged in it, breathing silently, visualizing and concentrating his mind.

A large amount of Qingling Jiuqi was constantly moving and accumulating around his body.

Through the Qingling Jiuqi, Lei Jun cultivated a large amount of nine-colored flowing light.

And these nine green spirits and nine colored flowing lights are currently being further nourished by the branches and leaves of the sacred Wutong tree.

However, at the same time, as Lei Jun's two-yin and yang immortal body circulated, a huge black and white yin and yang Tai Chi diagram spread out in the Xuanhuang universe.

Through the circulation of the Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram, there is another mysterious existence, which begins to stimulate the Qingling Jiuqi from another angle.

Originated from Luo Yuan, one of the ten realms.

The storm in Luo Yuan's dark sea was constantly impacting Lei Jun's Qingling Jiuqi at this moment.

Such an existence has been prepared for a spirituality that is opposite to the Nine-Colored Flowing Brilliance, but it needs the treasure of the universe to complement it in order to succeed.

Now all the conditions are in place, so as the black and white Tai Chi diagram transformed by Lei Jun's magic power keeps turning, in addition to the nine-color flowing light, another existence gradually emerges from it.

Compared to the shimmering nine-color light, this new life has another kind of mystery, dark and gloomy.

At present, there is only a wisp of it, but it has already taken on a sharp look.

It seemed as if the wind came from the deepest part of the netherworld, dark, condensed, ethereal and vast.

“This kind of mystery, in contrast to the Nine-Colored Flowing Flowers, can be called the Youluo Gangfeng.” Lei Jun nodded slightly.

The foundation and path have been established, and all he needs to do next is to concentrate on accumulating experience and practice.

..............................

While Lei Jun was practicing meditation, others in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms world were in a gloomy mood.

Wu Zhen Jia Xianting, one of the Ten Witches of Lingshan who single-handedly guided the arrival of Canghuan, sat quietly in his own cave.

This place is extremely far away from the gate of Canghuan, but Jia Xianting still stared in that direction.

Originally, he hoped that the spiritual beasts in the universe would intervene in the world of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and change the overall situation in the human world.

But the final result was not satisfactory.

The sentient beings in the universe are neither like the Saha Buddhist sect, nor like the Lingshan witch sect, nor like the Xumi Buddhist sect in the Ming human world, the Guixu monsters, or other places.

As far as Jia Xianting knew, there was no shortage of powerful spiritual beasts in the universe.

But they seemed to have little interest in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

At least for now.

The world has returned, but not much has changed in the human world.

It seems that this is because there are two ancient strange beasts at the fairy level living there at the same time.

Even though Saint Lord Haoyang had been in charge of Canghuan for many years, he actually allowed new immortal spirits to be born from spirit beasts other than the Golden Crow.

After the initial disappointment, Wu Zhen and Jia Xianting quickly calmed down.

The fact that these two great immortals were about to fight was also good news for him.

It was an even better opportunity than he had expected.

As to whether he can grasp it, it depends on Jia Xianting himself.

After offering sacrifices in the cave, he continued with his preparations.

..............................

Time flies by.

Xu Yuanzhen also took a few branches and leaves of the sacred Wutong tree from Lei Jun to nourish his own Qingling Jiuqi.

After she listened with great interest to Lei Jun's description of the situation in Cang Huan, she showed a rare sense of regret:

"The battle between the immortals sounds interesting, but unfortunately the time is unknown and I don't have the leisure time like Xiaotang to wait.

After hearing what you said about Daju from Master Bai, I became more interested in that place, so I decided to go there first."

She waved the stone knife in her hand, informed Chu Kun, and went straight to Daju.

Lei Jun couldn't help but smile when he saw this.

Wang Guiyuan, who had transformed into the form of Monk Faqing, was standing beside him at this time, also with a look of being accustomed to it.

"Big Sister's interest changes aren't as erratic as Junior Sister Tang's."

Wang Guiyuan held a bowl in his hand: "She was firm in picking it up and firm in putting it down, which was quite Zen-like."

Lei Jun nodded slightly.

When Xu Yuanzhen is busy with something, he will not easily change his mind.

On the contrary, once she puts something behind her, she basically doesn't care about it anymore.

For example, the present Saha world.

"Is there any trace of the people from Leiyin Temple?" Lei Jun took the bowl from Wang Guiyuan and looked at it, with Dharma sutras flowing in his eyes.

Wang Guiyuan shook his head: "It's just a preliminary clue. Although Chonghui died, there are still two perfect Dharma bodies, Baoneng and Duming.

And Master Pu Guang has even cultivated a golden body of Buddhism. Even if we find them by mistake, they will immediately notice and cut off contact."

Lei Jun seemed not to have heard what Wang Guiyuan said, and said indifferently: "Brother, can you give me more clues?"

He was dressed in formal attire of a heavenly master, holding a bowl in one hand and extending the other hand towards Wang Guiyuan.

"..." Wang Guiyuan looked at Lei Jun, swallowed the rest of his words, took out a Zen stick and placed it on Lei Jun's outstretched hand.
