"Brother Ao Hong, long time no see," Shen Luo greeted the young man in golden armor with a smile.
Ao Hong's face was solemn, and he frowned slightly. He did not notice Shen Luo until he spoke.
"You are Shen Daoyou? It's been a long time. "Ao Hong looked at Shen Luo and recognized him. A smile appeared on his face.
"Yes, I did not expect to meet Brother Ao Hong here. Brother Ao Hong, your cultivation has improved so fast. Congratulations," Shen Luo said with a smile.
Ao Hong did not show any joy because of Shen Luo's words. Instead, he smiled bitterly.
"Why did Shen Daoyou come to Wu Zhuang Guan? Are you also here to attend the Hundred Fruit Immortal Gathering?" Ao Hong changed the topic.
"Hundred Fruit Immortal Gathering … Is Wu Zhuang Guan organizing such a gathering? I am not here to attend this gathering. I came to Wu Zhuang Guan for something else. I want to see Senior Zhen Yuanzi. "Shen Luo's eyes lit up.
He had been worried about meeting Zhen Yuanzi all along the way. He did not expect that there would be a gathering in Wu Zhuang Guan, which made things much easier.
"Oh, Zhen Yuan Daisen usually meditates in Wu Zhuang Guan and rarely sees guests. I am afraid it will not be easy for Brother Shen to meet him," Ao Hong said with a surprised look.
"Isn't Wu Zhuang Guan organizing the Hundred Fruit Immortal Gathering? Zhen Yuan Daisen will not show up? "Shen Luo asked anxiously.
"Zhen Yuan Daisen is not organizing the Hundred Fruit Immortal Gathering. It is organized by someone else in Wu Zhuang Guan. Zhen Yuan Daisen never shows up," Ao Hong said.
"I see," Shen Luo was disappointed. He was secretly thinking about how to meet Zhen Yuanzi.
"No matter what, let's go in first," Ao Hong said.
Shen Luo nodded.
The two of them quickened their pace and arrived outside the gate of Wu Zhuang Guan.
"My two fellow Daoists, are you here for the Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering?" A Daoist child dressed in green beside the door bowed to Shen Luo and Ao Hong.
This person's cultivation was low, and he was only in the Fasting Period. Facing Shen Luo and Ao Hong, he was neither servile nor overbearing, showing the bearing of a famous master.
"That's right. I'm Ao Hong of the Eastern Sea. Beside me is Shen Luo, my friend," Ao Hong said as he took out an invitation card and handed it over.
"So it's the Eastern Sea's Senior Ao. Welcome. However, this invitation only has your name on it. According to the rules of the conference, only you can enter." The green-clothed Daoist child glanced at Shen Luo and said with some difficulty.
"How dare you! It's just the Hundred Fruit Immortal Gathering. Don't tell me that you can't even bring a friend along! "Ao Hong's face darkened as he berated.
"Senior, please forgive me. The Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering this time is hosted by the Reception Elder. He added this new rule." The green-robed Daoist quickly apologized.
"The Reception Elder?" Ao Hong frowned. It seemed that he was quite wary of this person.
"Since Brother Ao can't bring me in, I will find another way. Brother Ao Hong, you don't have to worry about me," Shen Luo said when he saw this.
"How can I do that? We came here together. How can I leave you behind? "Ao Hong shook his head and was about to say something to the green-robed Daoist child.
"Eh? Shen Luo? You are the one who won the Martial Gathering of the Three Realms, Shen Luo? "A square-faced young Taoist walked out from the mountain gate and looked at Shen Luo curiously.
"Martial Gathering of the Three Realms? Brother Shen, you participated? And you even won? "Ao Hong was shocked when he heard this.
He had been troubled by some matters recently and did not pay attention to the Martial Gathering of the Three Realms.
"There are countless experts in the Martial Gathering. I was just lucky and won in the end. You are flattering me," Shen Luo said humbly and bowed to the newcomer.
The young Taoist priest did not look very impressive, but his cultivation level was very high. He had reached the peak of the Mahayana Stage and was only one step away from the Genuine Immortal Stage.
"Shen Daoyou is too humble. Everyone knows that the Martial Gathering of the Three Realms has strict rules. There is no pretense. It is a competition based on strength. Shen Daoyou's name has spread throughout the Three Realms. It would be hypocritical if you continue to be humble, "the young Taoist priest said with a smile.
Shen Luo smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
"Brother Qing Feng, long time no see," Ao Hong greeted the young Taoist priest. The two of them seemed to be old acquaintances.
The young Taoist priest returned the greeting. He then looked at the Daoist child and said sternly, "What happened just now? Why did you stop the two of you from entering the mountain gate? "
"Brother Qing Feng, please don't blame this little friend. Brother Ao and I are here to participate in the Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering. As it is my first time here, I do not have an invitation with me. I wonder if you can make an exception?" Shen Luo said with a smile.
"Shen Daoyou is very famous. It is my honor to have you here. Please come in," Qing Feng stared at the Daoist child and invited him with a smile.
Shen Luo thanked him with a fist salute and entered the mountain gate of Wu Zhuang Guan with Ao Hong.
There was a magnificent hall behind the mountain gate. There was a couplet on the stone pillars on both sides of the hall: Residence of the Immortal Immortals, Daoist Family that lives as long as the heavens.
"What a big tone. However, Zhen Yuanzi is the Ancestor of the Earth Immortals. He is worthy of these words," Shen Luo thought to himself.
The three of them entered the hall and quickly walked out of the main door. Behind them was a series of pavilions. Auspicious clouds danced and red-crowned cranes flew in the sky.
"The Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering will be held in the Colored Glaze Palace. Please follow me." Qing Feng led the way.
"Brother Ao, tell me, what is this Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering all about?" Shen Luo asked Ao Hong with a voice transmission.
"Brother Shen, you must know that there are many kinds of immortal-grade spirit fruits in Wu Zhuang Guan. Many of them are extinct in other parts of the Three Realms. Cultivators from various sects would often come to Wu Zhuang Guan to ask for some immortal fruits. At first, Wu Zhuang Guan did not want to deal with the endless stream of cultivators. So, every ten years, they would hold a trade fair to trade the immortal fruits in the temple. However, this trade fair became more and more famous. Many cultivators from other sects also brought their immortal fruits and spirit items to trade at the trade fair. Gradually, the Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering became what it is today, "Ao Hong replied with a voice transmission.
"Brother Ao Hong, you are also here to look for immortal fruits?" Shen Luo nodded in realization and continued to ask with a voice transmission.
"That's right. My father has been ill recently. He needs an extremely precious immortal fruit from Wu Zhuang Guan to cure him." Ao Hong's expression became serious.
"The Dragon King of the East Sea? If you need my help, Brother Ao, just let me know. "Shen Luo was stunned for a moment before replying with a voice transmission.
If not for Ao Hong's help, it would have been difficult for him to enter Wu Zhuang Guan.
"I will not stand on ceremony with you. If I need your help, I will definitely ask. The same goes for Shen Daoyou." Ao Hong looked at Shen Luo and nodded with a smile.
"The two of you have come at the right time. This Hundred Fruits Immortal Gathering is being hosted by the Reception Elder. The temple is offering thirty percent more immortal fruits than usual. The two of you should seize this opportunity," Qing Feng, who was leading the way, said with a smile.
"Oh, will there be any ginseng fruits in this gathering?" Ao Hong's eyes brightened and he asked eagerly.
