Refining Taoism and ascending to immortality

One month later, Taihe Island.

It was evening, the west wind mixed with the afterglow of the setting sun, falling in front of the attic. In the distance, the red sunset color that had been washed for a day quietly embroidered the faint frost flowers on the forest.

Zhou Qing sat upright on the cloud couch, with only half a cup of amber wine left on the bronze wine bottle in his hand, reflecting the high spirits between his eyebrows.

Not long after, there was a loud noise, and a big star suddenly rose above the sky, shining brightly, and then went straight to the cave. In a flash, he had entered Taihe Island. Before he landed, the surroundings were already emitting starlight, turning into countless star wheels. In the star wheels, strange words shone, and the air was filled with refreshing fragrance.

Thousands of stars came to the front of the pavilion, and on the steps, they kept colliding and jumping, and the sound was continuous. The deep and faint starlight spread out like water waves. Then, Master Zhou Chen appeared on the star waves. He wore a crown on his head, a sun and moon robe on his body, and held a jade ruyi in his hand. In his pupils, the bright color of the starry sky shone.

"Sixth uncle." Seeing this, Zhou Qing put down the wine bottle, stood up, and smiled: "Why did you come here in person?"

Master Zhou Chen glanced at Zhou Qing and noticed that the other party's posture was high-spirited, and there was a feeling of a sharp sword being unsheathed. He nodded slightly, and then said: "Traveling outside and looking for opportunities to condense pills is a lifelong event for cultivators. Since you have decided to go out, I, as an elder, have to come and see you off."

Zhou Qing took a deep breath, and in his eyes, the two qi rose, showing the mutual generation of gold and water, and said: "Okay, then Sixth Uncle, see you again when I condense the pill and come back."

Master Zhou Chen nodded, without speaking, with encouragement and expectation in his eyes.

At this moment, a bell sounded in the cave, melodious and stirring, and the sound was clear and melodious. It made people feel excited as if they wanted to reach the sky and embrace the bright moon.

In the sound of the bell, Zhong Wen, Lianjie and Song Hua, three Dan-transforming monks, all dressed neatly, led a group of people from Taihe Island, followed by a golden boy holding an incense burner and a jade girl holding an incense fan, quietly appearing.

They bowed to Zhou Qing from a distance and saw off the master of the house.

"It's time to go."

Zhou Qing let out a long whistle, flicked his sleeves, and a golden light shot out, which suddenly turned into a copper ring. He pulled hard, and the flying palace floated out from the clouds.

Under the setting sun, the flying palace built by the Luochuan Zhou family for the outstanding children in the family who could obtain the true disciples of the Zhenyi Sect, with golden doors and jade doors, treasure pavilions and flying platforms, and the auspicious clouds that kept pouring out were dyed with a layer of rouge, which was magnificent.

After a period of sacrifice, the Jade Spirit Treasure Palace became more and more ancient and majestic, and the magnetic wheel around it was filled with mystery.

After Zhou Qing sacrificed the flying palace, his true energy turned into a beam of light and entered the flying palace. Then, the Jade Spirit Treasure Palace shook, separated the clouds, left Taihe Island, and walked outside.

In a cave, there was a jade-colored stone wall, seven or eight feet high, with water lights constantly washing on both sides, and the waves were winding on it. Whenever the sky was reflected, the stone wall was like a mirror shining on people, and every detail was visible.

Li Bixiao stepped on a sword energy, and his true energy fell like frost on his head, reflecting the surroundings into a pure white.

Xiao Xin was wearing a green silk and white dress, and a jade-colored hairpin was inserted diagonally on her hair. On the hairpin, light was hanging down, filled with a sense of dream, making her front and back, left and right hazy.

The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, just looked at the jade disc quietly without saying a word.

At some point, the jade disc shook slightly, and a golden light suddenly jumped out of it. After a moment, it suddenly became larger and turned into a flying palace. Auspicious clouds spread, and a rainbow penetrated. It left Taihe Island and went to the outside of the mountain gate.

But the light on the jade disc lasted for a long time, like a fluttering flag, hanging down, filled with a vast atmosphere.

After a while, a sword sounded above Li Bixiao's top door. This sound was like coming from the rustling cold forest and falling on the deep frost water. There was a kind of coldness after being washed. He said: "I plan to advance the date of opening the mansion."

Xiao Xin heard it and was not surprised.

Whether it was Li Bixiao or himself, they were all people who thought highly of themselves. Seeing that Zhou Qing, who was also a new true disciple, had gone out to find an opportunity to condense the pill, they all felt a sense of injustice in their hearts.

However, geniuses like them will not complain about the world or blame others, but will strive forward and catch up.

As for Li Bixiao opening his residence ahead of time, it was not an impulsive act. He just broke his own limit a little earlier.

"I can't fall behind either."

Xiao Xin lowered her eyelids. Although she was a woman, she was as good as a man and would never let Zhou Qing and others take the lead.

Xia Yuan Wu family, clan land.

A real person sat on the star platform, wearing a crown facing the sky, with a beautiful appearance. He was silent, and there was an inexplicable strangeness falling around him, like a shadow behind a curtain, revealing an unspeakable ominousness.

His eyes moved, and a ray of deep air shot out from between his eyebrows, folded in the air, and fell to the air, like a lotus blooming. In the center of each flower, there was a shadow of Fei Gong.

"Zhou Qing of Luochuan Zhou family."

This real person stared at Fei Gong, as if he could break through time and space, sense that kind of aura, and his thoughts kept turning.

"I'm going out today."

The Immortal took out a jade slip from his sleeve, engraved it on it, and memorized it. Not long after, many people in the Wu family got the news and began to take action.

Hengnan Zhou family, clan land.

The waves of the big lake are just right, the sky is so green and the bottom is invisible. A moment later, the returning birds came with a thousand wings and flew over the mirror-like lake, making ripples in circles, and their clear and clear chirps echoed everywhere.

Zhou Qian wore a pure Yang crown on his head and a feathered robe embroidered with frost Hexi Lai. There was a sword pill hanging above the top door, and the rustling sword light reflected the pride between his brows.

He looked up at the sky. Behind him were boys and maids, holding jade boxes, treasure vases, incense burners, whisks, etc. The fragrance of flowers and the cold smoke from the furnace rubbed together, creating a sense of peace and nature.

It was obvious that the group of them was waiting for someone.

"Not yet."

Zhou Qian waited for a while and saw no movement, but even so, he was still in a happy mood and turned his eyes to look not far away.

There, there was a woman in a red dress with a slender waist. She looked as beautiful as a flower, but there was a golden and fire energy rising around her. Just one look at her made people feel very hot as if they were at three o'clock in the afternoon.

But the woman in the red dress frowned and said nothing, as if a layer of frost had condensed on her pretty face.

Just by looking at it, you could tell that she was in a bad mood.

Seeing this scene, the smile on Zhou Gan's face grew wider. He cleared his throat and said loudly: "Zhou Zhenzhen, the distinguished guests from Doumu Palace are coming soon. The clan has arranged for the two of us to greet them. You have to cheer up. Don’t let your distinguished guests think that we from the Hengnan Zhou family don’t understand the rules.”

After hearing the words of Zhou Gan, her old rival in the clan, Zhou Zhenzhen raised her eyebrows. The orb hanging from her black hair was as hot as fire and red. The fire accumulated in her heart was almost ignited. She couldn't suppress it and wanted to explode.

However, she gritted her teeth and suppressed her anger. The situation is like this. If you want to get angry, you may be humiliating yourself.

"Ha ha."

Zhou Qian saw Zhou Zhen really want to get angry but couldn't get angry, wanted to leave but couldn't leave, he felt as happy as if he drank a glass of ice water on a hot summer day, his heart was cool and his heart was flying, and he laughed out loud.

"you,"

Zhou Zhenzhen put her hands in her sleeves and held them tightly. Fireworks burst out from between her fingers and made a crackling sound. She lowered her eyelids and her thoughts fluctuated.

She really didn't expect that someone would come to Doumu Palace at this time, and it would be a true disciple.

A true disciple of Xuanmen like Doumu Palace has a lot of weight. They come with good intentions, so the Hengnan Zhou family must give them a good welcome and make them feel at home.

It is indeed a good thing for the family, but if Doumu Palace and his party come to the Hengnan Zhou family, it will definitely make Zhou Qian and the forces behind Zhou Qian even more arrogant. For her, this is not a good thing.

I don’t know how long it took, but I heard waves of crisp and melodious sounds. After a while, large swaths of petals appeared in the sky, scattered in colorful colors, filled with fragrance, a rainbow rose, and the clouds condensed.

"The people from Doumu Palace are here."

When Zhou Zhenzhen heard the wonderful sound, she felt indescribably comfortable all over her body. She raised her eyebrows and immediately saw that above the sky, there were thousands of golden flowers intertwined with silver, and an extremely gorgeous treasure ship was slowly approaching.

The treasure ship sailed in front of the rooftop, and the surrounding flowers seemed to be picked up by an invisible hand, turning into a colorful tapestry that hung straight down from mid-air. Then, a pair of boys and girls came out, both wearing the robes of Doumu Palace. The man was handsome, the woman was beautiful, and her body was pure.

If you look carefully, you can see that the girl is wearing a flower crown, slightly in front, taking the lead, while the man is half a step behind, protecting the left and right.

Seeing the people on the rooftop, the girl with the flower crown stepped forward, and with a turn of energy, she had a wonderful sound, which made her voice seem to be dyed with an ethereal spirit, and said: "Little girl, I have seen you, Senior Sister Ye and Senior Brother Zhou have just finished their exercises. , I am gathering my energy and will wait for a while before we can come out to meet you."

The girl with the flower crown spoke in a polite tone, but her every move had a kind of demeanor that came from Shangxuanmen, and she was unfazed by flattery or humiliation.

Hearing such words, Zhou Qian was not as arrogant as he used to be in the clan. He had already put away the sword pill on the door and said with a smile: "No rush, we will wait."

Taking advantage of this free time, Zhou Qian also chatted a few words with the flower crown girl in front of him.

Although the other party only has Qi refining skills, which is a bit lower than his level of elixir transformation, but the other party is not only an inner disciple of Doumu Palace, but also being able to follow him this time, he is obviously a close confidant of the true disciples in the treasure ship, and they can communicate with each other. , no harm.

The flower crown girl didn't speak much at first, but when she knew that Zhou Qian and Senior Brother Zhou Luoyun in the treasure ship were from the same clan, and she was also the elder of Senior Brother Zhou Luoyun, the smile on her beautiful face lit up. There was a lot of sincerity, and he started asking questions and answering them.

Zhou Zhenzhen, who was lying on one side, took a peek and noticed that above the scene, the girl with the flower crown was full of witty words, while the young man who came out with her was taciturn and had not said a word until now. She couldn't help but feel in her heart: Doumu Palace is truly well-deserved.

Doumu Palace, one of the Shangxuan Gates.

Most of the sects in this sect are female cultivators. Since the establishment of the sect, the majority of those in power have been women.

In fact, Doumu Palace, a superior sect, admits more male disciples than female disciples every year. However, there are only a few male disciples who can enter the inner sect or even become true disciples.

It can be said that in the Doumu Palace, there is definitely a "yin is strong and the yang is weak", with women taking the lead and men mostly assisting.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhenzhen couldn't help but cast his eyes on the treasure ship, with an inquiring look in his beautiful eyes.

In a high-level sect like Doumu Palace, I didn’t expect that Zhou Luoyun would be so successful and prosperous. When he went home, he could attract the true disciples of Doumu Palace to accompany him. It was really amazing.

When I was in the family before, I didn’t realize that Zhou Luoyun was not only talented, but also good at eating “soft rice”?

You can’t judge a person by appearance, and you can’t measure the sea by a bucket.

Just when Zhou Zhenzhen maliciously speculated that Zhou Luoyun should be treated with new eyes after three days of absence, and that he had gone from being the leader of the younger generation of the Hengnan Zhou family to a “powerful” soft rice man in Doumu Palace, a ray of auspicious color rose above the treasure ship, and then split to the left and right, turning into a lotus, and Zhou Luoyun appeared on it.

Compared with when he was in the clan land, Zhou Luoyun's temperament has changed greatly. Although he is only in the Qi Refining Realm, the true Qi on his head is as blue as the sky, rising slowly and interweaving naturally, as if he is holding a large brush like a rafter. Under the tip of the brush, not only are there ancient and mysterious words bursting out, but the font is clear, elegant and round.

Different words fall, and the auspicious aura is strong, as if this young man is in auspiciousness every moment, with dragons, phoenixes, unicorns and other auspicious beasts guarding him.

"It's really different."

Zhou Zhenzhen looked at her and her expression became serious. Although she was a Danhua cultivator and her realm was one level higher than the other party, she felt a sense of pressure just by looking at him from a distance.

It can only be said that Doumu Palace is worthy of being the upper Xuanmen, and Zhou Luoyun is worthy of being a true genius of the Hengnan Zhou family. It has not been long since he has been reborn and has a new look.

But soon, Zhou Zhenzhen's eyes were attracted by the woman beside Zhou Luoyun and cast over.

Although the other party was wearing a layer of gauze and her face could not be seen clearly, she had a skirt as gorgeous as flowers, black hair hanging on her shoulders like a waterfall, and a pair of beautiful eyes like sky-blue glass. The beautiful pearls that kept falling around her naturally condensed into scriptures and kept falling. Just one look and you can see the beauty.

She stood there, with a faint smile on her lips, just standing quietly, and naturally narrated the beauty, making people unable to help but immerse themselves in it.

Immerse yourself in beauty, appreciate beauty, watch from a distance and don't play with it.

Even an outstanding woman like Zhou Zhenzhen, who has always been very self-esteem, feels ashamed when she sees the other party.

Zhou Zhenzhen is like this, not to mention the other people from Hengnan Zhou who came to greet her. At this moment, they seem to be intimidated by the temperament of this woman, motionless, like clay statues.
