After Shi Xuan sat down, the Perfected Immortals and Perfected Ones stood up and thanked Penglai for his invitation. Their tones were very sincere. After all, the Momentary Forgetfulness Fruit was one of the few spiritual fruits that could help temper one's mind. It was of great help to the cultivation of one's Dao heart. The third and fourth Heavenly Tribulations, as well as the second to the fifth Blight, all had requirements for one's Dao heart. If one's Dao heart was not enough, it was impossible to touch the essence of the Great Dao, control the primordial spirit, and sense the passage of time in the Grotto-heaven.
Xu Yu, Shu Xiaotian, Qiao Mubai, Gui Yuanzi, King Qinguang, and Wu Yuee were even more grateful. Xu Yu, Shu Xiaotian, Qiao Mubai, Gui Yuanzi, King Qinguang, and Wu Yuee had been stuck at touching the essence of the Great Dao for a long time. Although Shu Xiaotian had benefited from Yu Yutian's opening and had collected many delaying secret techniques, there were only a thousand years left before the inevitable arrival of the fourth Heavenly Tribulation. He was about to follow in the footsteps of the Emperor of Hell.
Therefore, when they were able to taste the Momentary Forgetfulness Fruit, a spiritual fruit of heaven and earth that could allow cultivators to directly comprehend the Great Dao, even if it wasn't the one they needed, they could still learn from others. Their hearts were filled with gratitude.
As for the Lord Of Heaven, he valued the ability to use the Momentary Forgetfulness Fruit to temper his Dao heart and feel the passage of time.
As Xu Zhenjun was preparing for the first Deva's Blight, the Penglai Dharma Assembly was hosted by Shi Xuan. Looking around and seeing many Perfected Ones, he could not help but sigh, "When I joined Penglai, there were no more than twenty Perfected Ones in the entire Yu Yutian. But today, there are more than thirty Perfected Ones who have been selected and invited, and there are more than one hundred and twenty Perfected Ones. In another thousand years, there will definitely be Deva achievements."
"Fellow Daoists, Penglai's ceremonies and dharma assemblies have always been simple. I'm really sorry." Shi Xuan first mocked himself modestly. Penglai's simple style had been around for a long time, which made everyone smile knowingly. "But it's rare to have so many Taoist friends who have cut through the whims and seen their true nature gather together. Just exchanging Taoism is a pleasant thing."
Kong Ran chuckled, "There are so many Zhenrens here, including the Zhenrens who came with the Immortals, as well as Shi Xuan's Zhenren from Penglai, I'm afraid there are close to a hundred of them. Why don't we have a spar? Of course, you, Shi Xuan, will be the one to offer the prize."
"Fellow Daoist Kong, are you trying to imitate the Taixu Assembly?" Mo Jingqiu smiled.
Hearing Mo Jingqiu's words, many Zhenrens remembered that there were many Zhenrens who had participated in the Taixu Assembly. Shi Xuan, Meng Nishang, Shen Yimo, Mo Jingqiu, Jian Tonghui, and Lian Yu were all Three Tribulations mighty beings who could open their own worlds.
Apart from those who had fallen under the Killer Tribulations, the Zhenrens who were invited to participate in the Taixu Assembly successfully passed the Degeneration Tribulations. It was much higher than normal.
"Back then, the Taixu Assembly was filled with talents. Today, how many of the Zhenrens in Penglai's Dharma Assembly can become Heavenly Immortals?" This thought flashed across everyone's mind. Many Zhenrens were eager to give it a try.
Shi Xuan smiled, "Since no one objects, I will do as the guest says. Of course, whether or not to spar is up to each of you. I won't force you."
As he spoke, Shi Xuan opened up a Small Chiliocosm in front of him. He changed the laws and took in the mysterious objects.
Witnessing the scene of a Three Tribulation Almighty effortlessly obtaining a mysterious object made all the Spiritual Masters present feel extremely complicated. Something that they couldn't obtain after going through so many hardships was as easy as lifting a finger for a Almighty.
As it was in the Shangqing Shenxiao World, the Small Chiliocosm couldn't give birth to a stable Small Chiliocosm. Therefore, after Shi Xuan took out the mysterious objects, it quickly died out.
Shi Xuan took out a few secret treasures he had obtained from his enemies and placed them in front of him along with the mysterious objects. "One secret treasure for the fourth Heavenly Tribulation, one secret treasure for the third Heavenly Tribulation, and ten other mysterious objects. We'll use them as a wager. We'll take the top three each."
Shi Xuan was not afraid that the secret treasures and mysterious objects that came along with the exchange would ruin their Dao hearts if he gave them to the Spiritual Masters of the sect.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sigh. Shi Xuan saw that it was his good friend, Chongyang True Lord. He couldn't help but tease him, "Daoist Chongyang, you want to spar too?"
The few True Lords who had arrived a few days ago had sparred with each other. As they had survived the Decline of the Primordial Spirit for less than two thousand years, many of their Immortal Arts had yet to be cultivated. Therefore, it was Shi Xuan, Shen Yimo, and Jian Tonghui who had the upper hand in swordsmanship. Among them, Shi Xuan relied on his three flying swords that were at the peak of the eighth level Immortal Arts to be able to stand on equal footing with Ren Yunzong, the veteran bigwig.
Chongyang True Lord, who had a long beard, was thin and elegant. He shook his head and said with a smile, "I was lamenting the stubborn Lingbao of my family for not guarding the temple properly and sneaking out instead."
When Shi Xuan casually set up the fighting platform, the sparring officially began. It was rare for such a safe place to be watched over by bigwigs. Moreover, there were so many cultivators of the same level with different Dharma gathered here. Naturally, the Zhenrens did not hesitate to step up.
Among the ordinary Primordial Spirits that had yet to undergo the Heavenly Tribulation, Hua Qianluo, a Zhenren with a special Dharma treasure, had overcome all the difficulties along the way. However, in the end, he was defeated by Dong Ziran who had mastered the Five-colored Divine Light.
Among the One-tribulation Yang Gods, because the Zhenren of the Five Elements Sect who came with the Five Elements Boy and Kong Ran had not undergone the Heavenly Tribulation for long, their Five-colored Divine Light had not been cultivated to the level of transcending levels. Therefore, the top three places were taken by Ningxin of the Three Clouds Palace, Lu Xia 'er of the Guang Han Sect, and Pang Sheng of the Baocheng Sect, who were close to the Two-tribulation Yang Gods.
Ming Qingyue, who cultivated the True Method of Star River, which had high requirements and great power, shone brilliantly among the Two-tribulation Yang Gods. "The stars enter the Milky Way, the water is clear and the saints come out" was originally a real transcending level magic. However, because the cultivation method was incomplete, it was difficult to improve. Nevertheless, by chance, she cultivated it to the pseudo-transcending level. She fought with Li Wanghe of the Five Elements Sect, who had just cultivated the Five-colored Divine Light to the level of transcending levels. Relying on her real combat experience, which was better than that of the disciples of the big sects, she won with difficulty and came out on top.
As for the rogue cultivator, Zhenren Gui Yi, Zhenren of Penglai, the Three Clouds Palace, the Baocheng Sect, the Guang Han Sect, and the other Zhenrens of the super big sects.
The Three-tribulation Yang Gods were all famous Zhenrens of Yu Yutian. The battle between them was even more exciting.
Seeing that Xiao Zhenzi's Innate Divine Light was easily defeated by Wang Pu of the Five Elements Sect, Qin Sheng could not help but smile in his heart, "Although Xiao Zhenzi and I were on the same level for a while, without the transcending level magic, the difference in strength can't be calculated. After today, when the result of the Penglai Spell Gathering is spread out, I think no one will compare him with me anymore."
With the Five-colored Divine Light, Wang Pu, Shu Xiaotian, Mo Yuan, Linló, as well as a few veteran Three-tribulation Yang Gods of the Three Clouds Palace and the Baocheng Sect were all defeated by him. In the end, the top four were Wang Pu, Qin Sheng, Xu Yu, and Chu Wan'er.
Chu Wan 'er relied on the profoundness of the Time Immortal Technique to last the longest in front of Wang Pu. She actually dodged one of the Five Colored Divine Lights and attacked first, causing Wang Pu to be in imminent danger for two or three seconds. However, a Great Divine Technique was a Great Divine Technique after all. Even though Wang Pu had yet to understand its true meaning, he still managed to suppress Chu Wan' er at the crucial moment.
In the battle between Qin Sheng and Xu Yu, all kinds of Devil Path skills were eye-catching. "Immortal Blood Shadow", "Moke Blood River", "Mother and Child Primordial Yin Curse", "Seven Evils Ten Thousand Filthy Thunder", "Mirage", "Seven Bewitching Demons", "Shadow Chasing God", "Plundering Demonic Art", "Ten Thousand Poisonous Smoke of Resentment of Heaven and Earth", "Sun and Moon Devouring", "Black Line of Curse" and so on were used one after another. However, they were all blocked by Xu Yu's wood element magic, such as the Green Emperor Wood Emperor Divine Light, and his own outstanding swordsmanship.
"The magic is too complicated, it can't highlight the root. Zhenren Qin has taken a wrong path. His strength is a notch above Zhenren Xu, but he can only be in a stalemate." Ren Yunzong commented. As a Sword Cultivator Perfected Lord who was the most self-centered, he had the deepest understanding of this aspect.
Mo Jingqiu looked at Yu Yutian with a smile. What was the difference between the Way of the Inner Demon passed down by the Taishi Demon Sect and the reverse side of his own skill after it was completed?
As the battle went on for a long time, Qin Sheng was an Immortal of Diabolism. His nature was unrestrained and murderous. Suddenly, he had the idea of using the Taishi Heavenly Demon Qi. However, he had not cultivated his Taoist heart for so many years for nothing. He understood that once he used the Taishi Heavenly Demon Qi in front of everyone, he would be in big trouble since he did not have a half-step Golden Immortal elder like the Divine Firmament Palace behind him.
Therefore, he suppressed the uncontrollable thoughts. Apart from the Primordial Heavenly Demonic Qi, he mainly used the Immortal Blood Shadow and the Plunder Demonic Technique. Relying on the advantage of touching a trace of the Great Dao's divine essence, he gradually suppressed Xu Yu. After a quarter of an hour, he finally forced Xu Yu to admit defeat.
Xiao Zhenzi looked at this scene and nodded with a smile. He thought to himself, "This child is worth teaching. He has finally grown up."
The battle between Chu Wan 'er and Xu Yu also dragged on for a long time and ended with Chu Wan' er winning by a narrow margin. Without using the Primordial Heavenly Devil Qi, Qin Sheng relied on the Devil Path Celestial Techniques derived from the Heart Demon, Hallucination Demon, and Nightmare to avoid the strong and weak points. He did not engage in a head-on battle with Wang Pu and managed to come to a draw in the time it took to drink half a cup of tea. However, under the Five-colored Divine Light, he still could not escape the fate of defeat.
…
The battle that benefited everyone was over. After everyone picked their bets, Shi Xuan clapped his hands lightly, and the disciples of the Penglai Sect each came out with a small cauldron. Inside the cauldron was the True Water of Time taken from the Pool of Time. Inside the True Water, there was a transparent fruit the size of a longan, which looked like it was formed by flowing water and light.
Once the Momentary Forgetting Fruit came into contact with the five elements and other things, it would fester. It could only be preserved with the Cosmic Light Real Water or innate things.
"Fellow Taoists, please taste the Momentary Forgetting Fruit." Shi Xuan smiled and picked up the spirit fruit. Qing Suo, who was serving at the side, looked at it eagerly. She really wanted to eat another one.
"Thank you Penglai for your gift. Thank you Immortal Shi for your gift." After the Immortals and Perfected Ones expressed their gratitude in unison, they picked up the spirit fruit and swallowed it.
As soon as the Momentary Forgetting Fruit entered his Primordial Spirit, Shi Xuan felt that the time around him had stopped. Everything was still. Other than his thoughts, even his Primordial Spirit was the same. Therefore, he could not meditate or visualize and could only sit there in a daze.
Shi Xuan calmed his mind and collected his thoughts. His Taoist Heart was like a bright moon. It was not disturbed by this extreme loneliness. He began to sort out the things he had accumulated over the years.
The first thirty years passed in the blink of an eye, and Shi Xuan did not mind it at all. However, when another fifty years passed, he could not cultivate or speak, and his temperament gradually became irritated. After all, he was always focused on cultivating in seclusion, and this kind of sitting in solitude was really hard to bear.
After realizing that his mind was becoming irritated, Shi Xuan began to restrain his troubled thoughts and calm his mind.
The next twenty years were spent fighting against this irritated and restless state. Shi Xuan felt that his mind had greatly improved. In the last few months, he successfully changed the way he thought and felt the world. Both his body and mind felt that this kind of sitting in solitude had a different flavor. It was a different kind of enjoyment.
After a hundred years, in Shi Xuan's mind that was as clear as the moon, he suddenly felt the long river of time rolling over. It broke through the silence and the barrier of Shi Xuan's Taoist Heart. It displayed the Great Dao of time, lightning, light, and other Great Dao in Shi Xuan's Primordial Spirit.
In the meditative state, the feeling of the passage of time was so obvious. It was as if it was engraved in Shi Xuan's senses. Gradually, the long river of time returned to normal. It blended with the nearby space and could no longer be clearly felt.
However, Shi Xuan's Primordial Spirit could clearly feel the projection of the long river of time in his Grotto-Heaven. It flowed forward and refused to return!
