On the ninth day of the Chongyang Festival, Tushan woke up early in the morning. He first washed up, then ate some snacks and fresh fruits, and began his morning business.
The demon race had been ruled by Tushan for a thousand years, and had formed a complete royal court system. He only needed to listen to the morning court session.
During the court session, many demon officials reported the recent events. In terms of major events, only the Chongyang Festival and the Qingling Celestial Dao's killing tribulation were likely to happen.
"The Qingling Celestial Dao's killing tribulation will definitely target the demon race. You should restrain your disciples and not get involved in the mortal world. As for the zoos, you have to take care of them. If the demons in the zoos want to leave, they can come to the demon world to hide. "
"As for the Chongyang Festival, I have also received an invitation. You will know when I see it."
"His Majesty also has an invitation?" The demon kings' eyes lit up. They wanted to go and see Qing Hong. But Tushan shook his head slowly. "There is another reason for this festival. He could have entertained the human cultivators, but he dragged me along. I'm afraid he wants to talk business, and it is not convenient for you to go. "
When it was half past midnight, Tushan told the demon court subordinates to take care of the demon race, then he got up and went to the river to rush to the Chongyang Festival.
The invitation sent by Qing Hong Taoist was very special. It did not mention the location of the festival. It only said that the guests should throw the invitation into the river or the mouth of the well, and use the water system of Xuanzheng Chau to send it.
After all, Qing Hong was the chief deity of the water department, and he was in charge of all the rivers in the world. When Tushan's invitation was thrown into the river, it turned into a beautiful dragon boat in the wind, and carried Tushan to the venue of the festival.
The Tranquil Lake, the place where Daojun and Ji Feichen met for the first time. For this Chongyang Festival, Ji Feichen chose the Tranquil Lake as the venue, and built a beautiful white jade palace on the water surface.
Tushan rode the boat to the mouth of the lake, and saw Wei Qingchen and Jing Xuan standing side by side on another dragon boat. They also came to the Tranquil Lake. The only difference was the relief sculpture on the bow of the dragon boat. The one on Wei Qingchen's side was even more ferocious, like a flood dragon entering the river.
"Huh? Why are the two of them here together?" Tushan thought it was strange. He deliberately slowed down and steered the dragon boat over. "The two of you, the Xuanyuan Dao and the Xuanyuan Dao are incompatible. Why are you suddenly acting together?"
"It's nothing," Jing Xuan said faintly, "We met by chance, so we came together."
"Oh?" Tushan looked at the two of them up and down. Finally, his gaze landed on the navy blue jacket on Jing Xuan's wrist. The robe just happened to cover their sleeves and palms, which was very strange.
Suddenly, Celestial Fox smiled. "Both of you deliberately covered your hands. Could it be that your hands are injured? Or, are you holding hands? "
Tushan couldn't help but touch his arm. "Aiya, when did you two become so close? It gave me goosebumps! "
Wei Qingchen glared at Tushan angrily. "Disgusting. You're just a chicken-eating fox. What are you pretending for!"
Seeing that Tushan was still in the appearance of a young man, Wei Qingchen curled his lips and said mockingly, "You're also a thousand-year-old fox. You always pretend to be young in front of people. How can you show your face in front of people like this? "
How could he be embarrassed?
In order to maintain his heyday, the Huangting Daojun fixed his appearance at 14 years old. As a Separated Spirit, what was there for Tushan to be embarrassed about?
After all, the appearance of this period was very important to them.
"It's not because you two are flirting? Is it arm wrestling? Is it a contest of magical power? Or else, it can't be that you two are handcuffed together, right? "
Instantly, Jing Xuan and Wei Qingchen's expressions became a little unnatural.
"It's really handcuffs?" Tushan did not miss their expressions. He clicked his tongue in wonder. "Who in the world can tie you two up? Could it be that guy Qing Hong? "
Jing Xuan frowned. "I say, Tushan, did you know about the news and deliberately came to mock us?"
"It's really him?" Tushan rubbed his chin and thought for a while. Suddenly, he jumped onto Jing Xuan and Wei Qingchen's fairy boat. "No, I was just guessing. But with my intelligence, isn't it easy for me to guess this? "
Jing Xuan and Wei Qingchen had a look of disbelief. Who didn't know that Fiend Star Tushan was a liar? Could his words be trusted?
Tushan rolled his eyes. "If you two continue to be like this, I won't help you unlock the handcuffs!"
He did not wait for the two to react. He directly opened his jacket. He saw the two of them tied together by the golden handcuffs. The two golden handcuffs were exactly the same. Mysterious Yin-Yang Seal Script appeared on the surface. There was a chain binding the two of them.
Hearing this, Jing Xuan could not help but raise his arm and asked in surprise, "You can unlock it?" His movement almost caused Wei Qingchen to fall again.
Anger flashed across Wei Qingchen's face. He fiercely pulled the chain and pulled Jing Xuan to his side.
"What are you doing!"
"What should you be doing! The two of us are tied together. Can't you be more careful when you move! "
Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Tushan squatted beside them and watched them fight with a smile.
When the two of them stopped fighting, he said slowly, "Qing Hong's handcuffs are not infused with magic power. You two can't even unlock it? At least your strength is comparable to a Sky Demon, right? "
Wei Qingchen and Tushan did not have a good relationship. He stood at the side and looked at the water color in the distance. Only Jing Xuan answered honestly, "Neither of us are good at unlocking spells. We don't want to make this matter public. So not many people know about it. "
"If not, why don't you go find Yang Fei? He's not a blabbermouth. You go find him or Holy Maiden Ri. You can burn the handcuffs with Holy Sun Fire. "
Tushan knocked on the handcuffs and said slowly, "Also, even if you don't want to trouble others, you have your own way to unlock it."
"What way?"
"It's very simple. Why don't you just chop off Wei Qingchen's hand? "
"Chop off his hand?"
The two of them were stunned.
Yes, Wei Qingchen's demonic arts had reached the Deva Realm. He could be reborn from a single drop of blood. What was a mere handcuff to him? After chopping off his hand, couldn't he just put his hand back on?
Jing Xuan slapped his forehead. "I didn't think of that!"
Wei Qingchen's face darkened. "You're really going to chop off my hand?"
Jing Xuan was unconcerned. "Even if I don't chop off your hand, I can chop off my hand. Anyway, I can just use immortal medicine to heal the wound. Aiya, I didn't think of that. "
After all, Jing Xuan and Wei Qingchen both had incarnations. Although the two of them had been handcuffed by Ji Feichen for so long, they had the help of the incarnations, so it was not much of a hindrance. The two of them planned to find Ji Feichen before anyone else and unlock the handcuffs. So they didn't think too much about it.
"But now that you've met me, you won't be able to use it." Tushan's fingers touched the handcuffs. With two cracking sounds, the mysterious white Qi dispersed from Jing Xuan and Wei Qingchen's wrists.
"That's it?"
"His handcuffs are formed from Yin and Yang Qi. They produce Yin and Yang magnetism, which is difficult for external forces to destroy. But I used the formless power to simulate Yin and Yang Daoist Qi, so I can dissolve the Yin and Yang magnetism. " Tushan clapped his hands. "Alright, I'll save your face now. But remember, you two owe me a favor!" With that, Tushan returned to the dragon boat and continued forward.
Soon, the three of them arrived at the Tranquil Lake Heavenly Palace.
The majestic palace was faintly discernible in the white fog. Only a golden door floated above the water.
A dragon boat was moored in front of the door. Qing Hong Taoist and Tong Guan were sitting at the bow of the boat, drinking tea.
"Huh, why are they together?"
Tushan was shocked and jumped up from his seat. In an instant, Fox Ear heard the two of them snorting.
"Huh?" Tushan's gaze swept back and forth between Wei Qingchen and Jing Xuan's faces, as if trying to figure out something. 'Why aren't Ji Feichen and Li Jingxun hiding this time? Aren't they afraid that Wei Qingchen and Jing Xuan will notice? Or do they already know? ' 'Could it be that they sensed something was wrong, so Qing Hong took Tong Guan away from them and handcuffed them?'
The intelligent Celestial Fox quickly realized the truth. He jumped onto the dragon boat and said to Ji Feichen and Jing Xuan, "What tea are you drinking? Count me in! "
Li Jingxun smiled. "It's not good tea. It's just old tea left behind by Heavenly Treasure Restaurant."
"Heavenly Treasure Restaurant's tea? Qing Hong made it himself? It's worth ten thousand taels of gold outside. It's extremely precious. Come, let me have a taste! "
The three of them sat together drinking tea and laughing. Jing Xuan and Wei Qingchen stood at the side and watched, not joining in at all.
"What do you think?"
'Tushan isn't surprised by Tong Guan's appearance and attitude. He should know the truth.' When Wei Qingchen thought of this, he felt a burst of anger in his heart. Even Tushan knew, but he didn't!
"I remember that Tushan once went to the Barbarian King Hall to steal the Heavenly Devil Book. At that time, he shouldn't have known. "
"When did he find out?"
"Earlier than you and I anyway."
Not long after, Du Yue and Fang He arrived on the dragon boat. When he saw Tong Guan, Du Yue's gaze paused, but he didn't say anything.
"These two from Taiyuan Temple are also old acquaintances." Tushan held his teacup and looked in their direction. His expression suddenly seemed a little off.
Fang He had been persecuted by Da Hong back then, and he was left with a hidden illness. After the killing calamity, he ran to another continent to cultivate and used unorthodox mystic arts to make up for his flaws. Now, he was at the second realm of Ground Fairies. As for Du Yue, his aura was obscure. Even with his Connate Formless Great Dao, Tushan couldn't see through it at all.
"This isn't good. The meeting this time is indeed complicated. I remember meeting Du Yue a hundred years ago. His abilities were weaker than mine. How did he improve so quickly now? "
That was because cultivating in the Taoist Priests mystic realm for ten days was equivalent to cultivating for a thousand years in the outside world. Du Yue had a thousand years more cultivation than Tushan. How could an ordinary person compare to him? At this moment, Du Yue's cultivation was still stronger than Tushan's in his normal state.
Even Ji Feichen and Li Jingxun couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Li Jingxun said faintly, "It seems that in this meeting, if one can't comprehend the Connate Great Dao, I'm afraid he won't even have the right to sit at the top."
"Who would have thought that the old fellow would put in so much effort? If I were him, I would have hidden out of shame long ago. "
"Oh?" Li Jingxun looked at the man in front of her with a faint smile. "Then, I wonder who it is that spends all day messing around outside and meddling in the affairs of various continents. Don't you think that's bullying the weak?"
Isn't that for the great ambition of the Ground Fairies? Ji Feichen smiled and didn't say anything.
"Haha, you guys are early!" Just as Du Yue and Li Jingxun arrived, Chen Luo and Wu He arrived on another silver dragon boat.
In an instant, wind and thunder raged on the surface of the water, and the sky was filled with dark clouds. Compared to Du Yue and Li Jingxun's appearance, the phenomenon of Supreme Firmament Palace was much bigger.
Although the phenomenon was big, in the eyes of the crowd, their cultivation was not as good as Du Yue's.
Fang He sneered. "Too much craftsmanship, mediocre and inflexible. Supreme Firmament Palace only has this much."
Jing Xuan thought to himself, "It must have been hard on Chen Luo. In his early years, he lacked the Great Secret of First Origin, so it was hard for him to cultivate the Supreme Divine Firmament Heart Sutra. After supporting Supreme Firmament Palace for a thousand years, it's no wonder he likes to use this kind of appearance to boost his reputation. "
Wei Qingchen sat back in the cabin. Out of sight, out of mind.
"Supreme Firmament Palace? Let's settle the score from the past! "
Suddenly, blood light rose from the thunder clouds, and Song Shaoming and Zheng Qiong arrived. The smell of blood dispersed the lightning, and the thunder clouds were suppressed in a corner, unable to resist.
Chen Luo and Wu He's faces turned ugly. Wu He tried his best to activate his mystic arts and cast the Pure Yang Divine Lightning, but facing the monstrous blood sea, he gradually couldn't hold on.
"In the end, these two are still lacking compared to the other experts. And without the Connate Great Dao, I'm afraid this meeting is just a foil. "Li Jingxun sighed in his heart and was about to help.
Du Yue was the same. After all, with the three palaces as one, how could they let outsiders look down on them?
Just as the two sacred grounds' successors were about to help, there was a sudden clap of thunder in the sky. The domineering Divine Firmament Lightning broke the blood sea, and the green-robed man landed on the dragon boat that Ji Feichen was on. Not long after, an unmanned dragon boat slowly flew over.
"Qin Wu?" Du Yue was shocked. "You're back?"
"Eldest Senior Brother!" Chen Luo and Wu He hurried over to welcome him. The two of them were not as good as Song Shaoming, but fortunately, Qin Wu arrived in time. Otherwise, wouldn't Supreme Firmament Palace be embarrassed?
But … Wu He couldn't help but peek at his Senior Brother Chen Luo's expression. After all, Senior Brother Chen Luo had been leading the sect for the past thousand years. What would Eldest Senior Brother think now that he was back?
But Chen Luo was happy, not worried that his position would be damaged.
Qin Wu patted the two of them and said to Chen Luo, "It's been hard on you all these years."
"Eldest Senior Brother is back. All the effort was not in vain." Chen Luo and Song Shaoming tested each other briefly and understood that the other party's strength was unfathomable. Only Eldest Senior Brother, who had obtained the Ancestral Master's inheritance, could compete with him.
Li Jingxun looked at Song Shaoming, Zheng Qiong, and then at Qin Wu. She couldn't help but sigh.
Ji Feichen reached out to touch her frowning brows. "Why are you frowning every day? You grow old easily. It's just the Innate Great Dao. What do we have to be afraid of? "
Qin Wu came over and saw "Tong Guan" and "Qing Hong" sitting opposite each other. He sounded surprised. "Brother, why are you with Tong Guan?"
Wei Qingchen suddenly came out of the cabin and said loudly, "It's rare to meet a practical person. Qin Wu, don't you know the identity of 'Tong Guan'?" Wei Qingchen emphasized the name "Tong Guan".
"What do you mean?"
Qin Wu looked around. Ji Feichen and Tushan smiled but didn't say anything. Song Shaoming and Zheng Qiong looked disdainful, while Du Yue looked like he knew everything. Only Chen Luo, Wu He, and Fang He looked confused.
"It seems that I missed out on many good things in the years I was away?"
Tushan pinched a pastry and said vaguely, "Yes, yes. These thousand years have been fun. And since Qing Hong invited us here today, there should be something even more fun, right? "
Ji Feichen nodded. "I invited everyone here today to have fun. We plan to compete at the Tranquil Lake to see who will be the first to enter the Heavenly Palace. Also, I left many treasures in the Heavenly Palace as prizes. I will give them to everyone according to the ranking. "
"Of course, I know that you won't be interested in these things. It's just a token of my appreciation. I also want to take a look at everyone's cultivation results in the past thousand years and see who is the best of the current generation. "
"Oh?" Tushan turned and asked Ji Feichen, "How many invitations did you send?"
"Not many. I just came back to meet some acquaintances. Look, I haven't even found my own disciple! "
Ji Feichen said, "Two people per boat, and we can take turns steering it. Including me and my junior sister, there are nine dragon boats in total. Of course, if everyone wants to have a small bet, it's fine to start another round. "
"Two people in a group?" Tu Shan glanced around and found that except for himself and Qin Wu, the others seemed to have come in groups of two with boats.
"You've already prepared? Then my teammate … "
"It's me." A black "cloak" walked out of the cabin of Ji Feichen's dragon boat. He yawned and said, "I came early, so I had a good sleep."
Ji Feichen raised his eyebrows. When did Peng Shaoyu get on the boat? Even he didn't notice!
Peng Shaoyu smiled and looked at Tong Guan beside him. "You have a beauty with you, so it's naturally not easy to find you."
"It sounds like Tong Guan is Li Jingxun?" Qin Wu vaguely felt that something was wrong. "Also, where are my teammates?"
"They will be here in a while."
After waiting for a while, many friends arrived. There were a total of nine dragon boats and 18 people: Ji Feichen, Li Jingxun, Tushan, Peng Shaoyu, Jing Xuan, Wei Qingchen, Du Yue, Fang He, Chen Luo, Wu He, Qin Wu, Zhang Yuanchu, Liu Zimo, Fairy Qinglan, Qian Zhenzi, Yuzhi Female Celestial, Zheng Qiong, and Song Shaoming.
When everyone was ready to start the competition, Yuan Hao and Jin Ping came slowly. "Everyone, can we join you?" They were also sitting on a crystal dragon boat.
Ji Feichen said helplessly, "You two are Celestial Beings. Why would you be interested in the things I left in the Heavenly Palace?"
"We are celestials descending to the mortal world. Aren't you a saint descending to the mortal world to experience the tribulation?" Jin Ping giggled. "If you can participate, why can't we?"
High Sage?
Everyone was puzzled when they heard this.
When Li Jingxun heard this, she understood Ji Feichen's plan in her heart, "This guy is planning to clear his identity! Forget it, it will be awkward for him to expose his identity in front of everyone.
Therefore, Li Jingxun smiled and said, "Imperial Concubine Dragon is right. Senior Brother, let's round it up and count the two of them in! "
Ji Feichen frowned and said awkwardly, "This time, I will count 18 people, which is the number of Chongyang. I plan to play on the dragon boats and then go to the Heavenly Palace to drink tea and admire chrysanthemums. It will not be beautiful if there is one more group. You must know that the Heavenly Palace only has nine paths, and only nine dragon boats can pass through. "
Tushan smiled and said, "That's even better. Then let the last dragon boat stay outside and count it as an elimination." He looked at everyone and said, "I believe everyone is full of confidence and does not think that they will lose, right?"
