Refining Taoism and ascending to immortality

After a sound, the carriage stopped. Zhou Qing jumped out of the carriage and faced a gust of moisture-laden night wind, which made his brows shiver. It was so cold.

Not far away is a building, surrounded by carved beams and painted buildings, pearl gates and jade doors, a floating corridor connecting the Hongqiao, a sparkling ice-colored lake below, and a crescent moon hanging on the eaves above.

Zhou Qing glanced at it and entered the mansion.

Go through the middle door, then pass through the verandah that is half a foot higher than the ground on both sides, and come to the end. Here there are red painted pillars, large glazed windows, and three or five birdcages hanging on the corridor. In each birdcage there is a bird with red eyes and blue eyes, jumping around and making crisp calls.

Zhou Qing stood at the door, the sound of birds was rising and falling, and the cold moon outside passed over the wall. The dense cold air reflected the clouds in the sky one by one, and they all entered the pool under the rockery not far away, causing ripples in the water inside. Three more points.

He took a look, and his heart was filled with excitement.

With the help of the sensation caused in Lingyun Palace, the aura of Nine Points Immortal Bones, and the fact that he has been keeping an eye on Zhou Luoyun for a period of time, his reputation in the clan has risen sharply with the persona of "Zhou Luoyun's only rival" , contacted a group of people among the Zhou family in Hengnan.

This group of people all have their own purposes, but one thing is that they support Zhou Qing in going to the Jingchen Dharma Assembly.

And today, the results are coming.

Zhou Qing's eyes moved, and his heart returned to calm. He greeted the people standing at the door steadily, entered the hall, and found a seat on the big pear blossom chair next to the landscape screen.

"Jingchen Dharma Assembly, sect."

Zhou Qing sat on the chair, thinking about his future development path.

If you want to develop in the Hengnan Zhou clan, there is indeed an upper limit. You must use the Jingchen Dharma Assembly to enter a suitable sect.

According to the experience of the previous life, the sect you enter must be strong. Because in this world, it is easier to achieve things if you have a strong background.

Fortunately, I had good luck. Three Shangxuan Sects appeared at this Jingchen Dharma Assembly.

Zhou Qing suppressed his thoughts and started to use the exercises. The internal energy was in the body, along the meridians, strengthening the bones, and seeping into the interior to continue to cleanse the bone marrow.

The "Moon Viewing and Shaking Scales" in the "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation" he practiced is a first-class marrow-cleansing technique. After practicing it to a perfect level, he cleanses the marrow and changes the bones with every movement and silence, channeling the power of the immortal bones as much as possible. .

No one saw that in his body, the bone marrow in his bones was shaking like shaking scales, and he looked bright and clear. Powerful vitality was radiating out, filling his skin, flesh, muscles, and bones, making his physical body continue to improve.

In order to participate in the Jingchen Dharma Assembly, he not only took all his free time to use the marrow cleansing method of Watching the Moon and Shaking Scales, but he also used his trump card.

Looking at it now, hard work pays off.

After a while, Zhou Luoyun came in. As soon as he stepped into the hall, he saw a young man sitting under the screen. After he entered, he opened his eyes. His eyes were quiet, like a cold pool, and he couldn't see the bottom.

"Zhou Qing."

Seeing Zhou Qing, Zhou Luoyun paused, his face cold.

"Zhou Luoyun."

Zhou Qing sat on the big pear chair and did not get up. He stared at Zhou Luoyun not far away, his eyes as cold as frost and filled with chill.

The two people stopped talking and just faced each other.

Only the collision of Qi between the two sides seemed to be able to suppress the pecking sounds of birds outside, revealing a hint of coldness.

At this moment, someone else came in from the outside. She was a tall girl with beautiful makeup, wearing a long dress with a tail like a firework. She had a strand of black silk hanging in front of her body, with a orb tied on it, with a fresh green color. , full of mystery.

As soon as the young girl came in, she saw Zhou Luoyun and Zhou Qing. One was standing and the other was sitting. One was handsome and calm, and the other was sharp. If there is fire and water between two people, water and fire are incompatible.

Seeing this, Zhou Hongzhuang walked into the hall, looked around, found an inconspicuous corner to sit down, and then huddled in the shadow, holding her chin, as if watching the fun.

Did she know that in the past, Zhou Luoyun ranked first among the younger generation of the Zhou family in Hengnan, unrivaled and very prestigious. Even I, when facing him, would often be at a disadvantage and have to give in.

But no one expected that the situation has changed now.

Zhou Qing, who was previously inconspicuous, became a blockbuster in Lingyun Palace with his nine-point immortal bone qualification, shocking the family. Zhou Qing's temperament is the same as that of a true genius in the clan. He is very strong. He directly approached Zhou Luoyun at a party in Linshui Building and confronted him. He spoke fiercely and almost got into action.

And since that day, Zhou Qing expressed his dissatisfaction with Zhou Luoyun's overt and covert suppression of him in the past on many occasions, threatening that the matter was not over yet, and he also bumped into Zhou Luoyun several times in the clan, although he never actually took action. , but every time they meet, they seem to be at odds with each other.

Zhou Qing has the aura of the nine-point immortal bone that the Zhou clan of Hengnan has produced for hundreds of years. Many people in the clan also subconsciously believe that he has this qualification.

Zhou Luoyun has always been the leader of the younger generation of the Zhou family in Hengnan. Now Zhou Qing is fighting against him, and his reputation has completely spread in the clan. Everyone knows about it.

Faintly, in the Hengnan Zhou clan, there was actually a situation where two heroes were competing.

Zhou Qing's reputation in the clan is now polarized. The forces related to Zhou Luoyun are disgusted by him, while those who don't deal with the forces behind Zhou Luoyun are more applauded.

As for ordinary people, they were deeply impressed by Zhou Qing after this fuss.

At the back of the hall, there is a large hall.

This hall is supported by a total of 7,749 pillars, opening up a huge space. Currently, there are only about 20 people here, giving people an extremely empty and remote feeling.

Each pillar was carved with dragons and phoenixes, and supported by lotus flowers. The petals on the flowers were shining with golden light. At this time, they all shone brightly, filling the surrounding area with a circle of golden light, which slowly spread out like a veil, making the faces of every powerful person in the Hengnan Zhou family in the hall hidden in the golden light, and their expressions could not be seen clearly.

Sitting in the center was an elder of the Hengnan Zhou family of this generation. He had a gaunt face and no beard under his forehead. Above his head, a ball of silver light rushed up, like countless gems gathered together, as transparent as amber, without any color, and was constantly circling up and down, coming and going, flying around.

He glanced down, and the jade ruyi in his hand swung, and the light like a fan was lowered, slowly unfolded, and pushed to the table. A clear voice sounded in the hall, saying: "The candidate list of the children selected by the clan to go to the Jingchen Dharma Assembly has been released. I see that there is a lot of controversy about Zhou Qing. Today we have to come up with a charter and decide the final list."

Zhou Xian sat next to a pillar, and the arc of golden light shone on his too fair skin. He sat cross-legged on the lotus throne, holding a music box in his hand, and there was a faint sound. At this time, his eyes swept across the whole audience, and there was a light of thought in his eyes.

With Zhou Qing's extraordinary talent, he would have automatically locked a place to participate in the Jingchen Dharma Assembly. However, due to Zhou Qing's sudden rise, it touched the interests of part of the clan, and Zhou Qing's special situation also made people vulnerable, so the matter that should have been set in stone had twists and turns, and had to be discussed here.

"Who will stand up?"

Zhou Xian's eyes swept across the whole audience, and finally fixed on the person opposite.
