Refining Taoism and ascending to immortality

Zhou Qingchong bowed slightly to the decree, then raised his hand to take it, holding it in one hand. As soon as he opened it, his face was reflected by the sword-like seal characters, purple and green auspicious clouds, a continuous line of dragons and tigers.

The seal text on the decree shines brightly, like a startling rainbow, and its powerful energy lasts for a long time. There is a strong force that follows the law and cannot be changed.

When the decree was fully unfolded, I even faintly heard thunder coming from outside the sky, and that kind of brilliant power of heaven rushed towards my face.

Zhou Qing calmed down and read the contents of the decree carefully, with a smile on his face. He read it again, closed the decree and put it away, and walked to the window.

Outside, there were streaks of startling rainbows falling through the sky, passing by like arrows. The long tail wings were filled with firelight, which rubbed against the atmosphere, forming a dazzling iridescence, like fluttering colors, dazzling.

Just looking at it makes people feel a sense of intensity, like a precursor to something big happening.

"Good."

Zhou Qing looked away, his eyes sparkling, showing the joy in his heart. This was quite an assist.

A few days later, Zhou Qing, who was sitting in the mansion, heard the sound of a jade chime coming from afar. Wherever he went, qi naturally condensed into bay leaves, colliding with each other and making a jingling sound, which contained a cold sound. Cold color.

The voice reached the mansion and arrived in front of Zhou Qing. Even though there was a distance, the voice seemed to ring in his ears.

Zhou Qing opened his eyes, pondered for a moment, called the boy, and said, "Prepare the chariot."

"yes."

The boy agreed and hurried out to prepare the chariot and ceremonial guard.

It was not long before I saw a jade sound from the central stone building of the mansion, and then wisps of bright colors came out. At the beginning, there were wisps, and after a while, they gathered more and more, and finally, they gathered into Together, like a rainbow bridge, they build both sides of the bank.

Then, a treasure chariot slowly rose up and came out of the Hong Bridge. Zhou Qing was sitting in it, with the bead curtain half rolled up. He was wearing the robe of the Flag Master, with a treasure seal hanging on his waist. The bright white air rose above the top door, stimulating it. Cum up and down.

The cloud car flew through the air at an astonishing speed. The faint lingering sounds along the way dispersed and went in all directions. Not long after, a meeting hall was in sight.

At this moment, a mysterious sound was heard, and hundreds of flying patterns flew down in front, like knives and swords, sharp and fierce. When they gathered together, there was naturally a murderous aura that spread across all directions, sending chills all over the body.

Zhou Qing sat in the cloud cart and looked around. He saw a middle-aged man with a stern face sitting on a thunder cart with four hooves on the snow. His eyebrows were like daggers, his eyes were deep, and his hands were naturally placed in front of his knees. It seems to hold amazing power.

"Dongzhen Division."

Zhou Qing was polite when he saw the visitor.

In Douleiyuan, the town secretary and the flag bearer are both positions of real power, but strictly speaking, the town secretary has slightly more power than the flag bearer.

Although there is no direct superior-subordinate relationship between the two parties, according to the usual practice, the town secretary is senior and the flag-bearer took the initiative to say hello when he met.

"Um."

Dong Zhensi replied calmly and without much greeting, he took the lead to put away his escaping light and entered the meeting hall.

Zhou Qing followed behind, looking at the back in front of him, his eyes flashing, but he didn't say anything, he just quietly came to the hall, found his own cloud platform, stepped up and sat down firmly.

After sitting down, Zhou Qing discovered that the main hall didn't look big from the outside, but it had its own universe inside. It was so dark and deep that there was no end in sight. Rows of cloud platforms inside, with clear glass and engraved ceilings, are lighting up one after another, surrounded by purple and green, falling in colorful colors.

Just then, a powerful person from the Doulei Academy arrived. His energy was entangled with the cloud platform under his seat, and a vision flew out to indicate his presence.

Zhou Qing kept looking at him. As a flag bearer, his status in such a meeting hall was neither high nor low. After all, he could still occupy a cloud platform.

As for those with lower status, they could only stand motionless in the main hall.

After watching for a while, Zhou Qing closed his eyes to rest, thinking secretly.

I don’t know how long it took, but I heard a roar, and two huge qi machines descended, one on the left and one on the right, appearing on the two cloud platforms at the deepest part of the hall. Immediately, the qi machines were strung like beads and poured out, and the jade chimes were The sound sounded eight times in a row, containing great majesty.

In the main hall, everyone present, after seeing him, all stood up and saluted, saying: "I have seen the deputy master."

"Everyone, please take your seats."

Vice President Su on the high platform on the left waved his sleeves and sat on the cloud platform with a faint smile on his face.

After Zhou Qing sat down again, he looked up and saw that the other vice-president, Zhou Zachuiyun, was angry. His face was hazy and he couldn't see clearly, but he could see that his skirt was like a trace, his black silk hanging down, and he was tied with a copper ring. He was obviously a Fairy.

"Vice-President Li."

Zhou Qing turned his eyes and knew who he was. After all, there were only a few deputy heads of the Doulei Academy, and only one of them belonged to the female immortal.

"I heard that this one went out and is back now."

Zhou Qing's thoughts turned. Douluiyuan was different from other institutions in the sect. Even if you became a big shot at the deputy head level, you would sometimes have to perform tasks outside.

As for other institutions in the sect, such as Gongdeyuan, Lieyuyuan, Tianxiangyuan, etc., when they reach the level of deputy director, they are first-class big shots. They do not go out for leisure, but sit in the courtyard and handle affairs.

Of course, when you reach the level of a great monk, it is even more impossible to risk your life in vain. It is also easier for the deputy master of Doulei Academy to rise to the position than the deputy master of other institutions. It is normal to enter the Yushu Star Palace to practice.

"Let's get started."

Deputy Dean Su swept his eyes across the room, waved the jade ruyi in his hand, and the auspicious aura of a magpie's tail emanated, announcing the start of the meeting.

Zhou Qing saw someone come out to report the work in his hands, and immediately cut off his distracting thoughts, sat up straight, and listened carefully.

Most of the people attending the meeting in the hall held important positions in Dou Lei Yuan. What such powerful people did was not really a small matter. Many can see the big picture from the small, and see the whole from the point, so as to get a glimpse of the actions and intentions of Dou Lei Yuan and even the sect.

Others also knew the key to this, so they also listened attentively, and no one talked nonsense below.

For a while, the hall was full of clear and jade-like voices.

"The inside and outside of the sect are surging."

Zhou Qing listened for an hour, his eyes sparkling. In the recent period, the sect has been constantly moving, much more intense than before.

After so many years of recuperation, the sect has finally recovered and began to work hard to restore the glory of the Zhenyi Sect in its heyday.

After an unknown amount of time, Deputy Dean Su, who was sitting on the high platform, waited for one person to finish reporting. His eyes shot towards the platform where Zhou Qing was. The color of pearls and jade covered it, like the blue sky, making his voice tinged with the sound of bells and drums. He said, "Zhou Qing, tell me about the Nanchuan Lake."

"Yes."

Zhou Qing was prepared. After hearing this, he held the crown on his head and stood up from the platform with his head held high. The bright white air behind him was like a rainbow shining in the sky, and the remaining coldness was like frost, making him look like a young man.

Seeing Zhou Qing come out, almost everyone in the hall, whether sitting on the platform or standing at the door, cast their eyes at the same time and fell on him.

In their eyes, there was curiosity, scrutiny, interest, and so on.

Because there were too many eyes, even faint lines formed, like a net, covering Zhou Qing's surroundings, and fine and dense light flowed and flickered continuously.

The attention paid by everyone in the hall to Zhou Qing was unusual.

On the one hand, Zhou Qing was already quite famous in Dou Lei Academy. This direct descendant of the Luochuan Zhou family, a peerless genius who had achieved the first-grade Dancheng, did not go to the Tianxiang Academy, Gongde Academy, Lieyu Academy, etc., which were the favorite places for the children of the aristocratic families, after becoming a true disciple. Instead, he entered the relatively dangerous Dou Lei Academy. Not only did he become the flag bearer of real power, but he also unexpectedly did a very good job.

On the other hand, Zhou Qing is now a popular figure in the competition for the next ten disciples. Dou Lei Academy is not without its disciples who have challenged the ten disciples, but Zhou Qing is unusual. He has almost challenged the ten disciples not long after entering Dou Lei Academy, and his momentum is very strong, with the posture of the top competitor.

According to this momentum, it is possible that Dou Lei Academy will really produce a real ten disciples of the sect.

Facing the eyes of the whole hall, Zhou Qing stood there, his expression calm, without any emotion, and he told the story of Nanchuan Daze slowly and unhurriedly.

In this process, he used the "Spring and Autumn" style of writing to highlight the importance of Dou Lei Yuan's entry and the cooperation of their five flag bearers.

The people in the hall listened with different expressions.

They were all well-informed people. They knew that the Nanchuan Lake incident was almost entirely Zhou Qing's alone, and the other four flag bearers had limited effects.

"Well done." After Zhou Qing finished speaking, Deputy Dean Su on the cloud platform deep in the hall did not hesitate to express his appreciation and said: "As long as the children of our Dou Lei Yuan are out there, as long as they work together and unite as one, the impossible can become possible."

At this point, Deputy Dean Su paused, his voice turned serious, and said: "Today I summoned you here, in addition to daily meetings, I will also tell you something on behalf of the Dean."

Hearing the word Dean, everyone in the hall held their breath and concentrated. This Dongtian Zhenren was absolutely arbitrary in Dou Lei Yuan, and his words were unshakable. His prestige was so heavy that even if he was not present and only had someone pass on the message, he could cover the entire hall.

Deputy Dean Su saw it all and was not surprised. He continued to speak, saying, "Now is an extremely critical stage in our sect. There are turbulent times inside the sect and the yin and yang outside the sect are changing. From now on, you will definitely have a lot of time."

Everyone in the hall listened and looked at each other solemnly.

How could they not have a premonition when they held important positions in the Dou Lei Yuan, a department that focuses on killing? Especially outside the sect, as the Zhenyi Sect went from contraction to expansion, the friction with other forces became more and more intense.

Some forces are not inferior to the Zhenyi Sect in public. If you rub against them and fight with them, who can guarantee that you will get out of it unscathed? There is indeed danger.

Just judging from the words of the Dean, this turbulent situation may be more severe than I imagined.

Deputy Dean Su slowly scanned the whole place, his eyes were full of golden light, making people dare not look directly at him, and said: "Heroes are revealed in times of crisis. The more critical the moment is, the more we need all of us in Dou Lei Yuan to work together and forge ahead."

The people in the hall thought of the records of Dou Lei Yuan in every major change of the sect that they had seen, and their hearts settled.

The hall was completely quiet, and you could hear a pin drop. Only the voice of Deputy Dean Su continued to sound, with an echo, saying: "The tasks in the courtyard and the tasks in the sect should be arranged with heart and done well. If anyone does not do well, the courtyard will never show mercy and will definitely punish severely, no one will be exempted!"

As the voice fell, a cold murderous intent penetrated the hall and ran rampant. Wherever it went, thunder exploded, and pale light hit the eyebrows of everyone, which was thrilling.

This kind of power is no longer just the power of his deputy chief monk, but the blessing of the will of most of the Doulei Academy, the laws and regulations are shaking, faintly like the telepathy of heaven's heart.

Everyone in the hall, no matter who they were, felt the coldness between their brows at this moment, and couldn't help but tremble in their hearts.

According to this situation, no matter who it is, if they really fail to complete their tasks or make mistakes, they will probably be dealt with severely.

Thinking of this, everyone cheered up and knew what was going on.

Vice-President Su sensed the solemnity in the hall and felt that the heat was almost there, so he waved the jade Ruyi in his hand again. The precious light was like water marks, slowly sliding across the hall, long and long, taking away the coldness and turning around. It is purple and green, and strings of pearls fall down, making a tinkling sound. He held Yu Ruyi in his hand, his voice softened obviously, and said: "For so many years, our Doulei Academy has always insisted that meritorious deeds must be rewarded, and delinquencies must be punished. If you do not do well, there will be strict rules to deal with it, but if you do well, The Master will not be stingy with rewards."

Having said this, he looked directly in the direction of Zhou Qing and said, "Zhou Qing."

"exist."

Zhou Qing stood up with a respectful expression and a calm posture.

Vice-President Zhou stood up, bowed to the depths of Doulei Courtyard, and then turned around. The stars on the jade Ruyi in his hand flickered, shining brightly, reaching the entire hall, making his voice tinge with gold. , said: "In view of your outstanding performance in Nanchuan Daze, the president of the academy has ordered you to temporarily take charge of the affairs of the academy in Nanchuan Daze, and fully preside over the development of our Doulei Academy in Nanchuan Daze. I hope you will guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and come again Achieve great results.”

Zhou Qing had received the decree in advance and knew it well, so he complied steadily and said that he would not let down the respect of the Master and the Deputy Masters.

"I hope you will do what you say."

Deputy Commander Su had a gentle expression on his face, wishful thinking.

"Zhou Qing."

The female fairy who had been silent since entering the hall also raised her slender eyebrows and gave Zhou Qing a few words of caution at this moment.

Although he didn't speak much, the meaning of Qing Yan's words was beyond words.

"this,"

Watching this scene, some people in the hall had vaguely heard the news, but after seeing it with their own eyes, they were still shocked.

Did the hospital directly hand over the hard-won Nanchuan Daze to Zhou Qing, a small flag-bearer?
