The sky was clear, and the waves were as calm as a mirror.
The birds' cries came from far away, and then gradually faded away.
On the boat, an old man wearing a straw raincoat was fishing on the river. Beside him, a strong and dignified child was squatting there, watching with wide eyes.
The old man suddenly felt the rod sink, and knew that a fish had taken the bait. He hurriedly exerted force, and the child also came to help. After the boat swayed for a while, a white-bellied, silver-scaled fish was caught.
The old man removed the hook and put the fish into the basket. He then rubbed the child's head, and said with narrowed eyes, "Good grandson, good grandson."
At this time, the child pointed into the distance and asked curiously, "Grandpa, what is that?"
The old man turned around and saw the shadow of a towering mountain in the distance. The hazy greenish-gray color seemed to occupy half the sky, but Just Now, he clearly didn't see it.
He wasn't too surprised. Instead, his murky eyes revealed a look of reminiscence, and he said with a sigh, "This is the Immortal Mountain. Past it is the place where the Immortals live. When I was young, I came here with my fellow villagers to fish, and I was fortunate enough to see it a few times."
At this time, the originally calm river water suddenly surged, and the water splashed continuously as if it was boiling. The child seemed to hear something again, and he looked up at the sky, and said innocently, "Grandpa, there are so many big birds."
The old man was startled, and he looked up. He saw waves of air rolling through the sky, and with a rumbling sound, they went straight in the direction of the Immortal Mountain. His expression changed, and he hugged the child, protecting him in his arms.
He had seen this kind of situation in the past. It was said that when the Immortals passed by, they would cause great winds and waves, and even thunder and rain, but it was extremely rare. But this time, it happened one after another. In just a short period of time, there were several waves of sound, and it caused the water of the river to sway.
When everything quieted down, the old man didn't dare to stay here any longer, and he hurriedly rowed away.
At this time, the passing waves of air in the sky all went toward the opposite Immortal Mountain. One of them passed through the veil-like fog, and suddenly there was a burst of light in front of him. He saw countless flying mountains floating and falling, and thousands of palaces standing here. Under the illumination of the sun, the glazed tiles were suffused with golden light. The Milky Way Waterfall floated in the air and surrounded the four directions. The splashing jade beads and crystal water formed a bright rainbow bridge.
At this time, the waves of air dissipated, and several Taoists appeared. One of them gave an order, and then he landed alone in front of a golden palace. After reporting in front of the hall, he was led to a large tower, where a tall and handsome young Taoist stood with his hands behind his back. He didn't dare to look at the ever-changing vision behind him, so he bowed his head and said respectfully, "Dao Master Miao Yu. Dao Dao Miao Yu Dao."
Dao Master Mist Jade looked over and said, "There are hundreds of sects in the four Chaotic Domains. You are the first to arrive."
The cultivator said seriously, "Since it's Dao Master's order, how can the Jing Liang branch dare to delay?"
Dao Master Miao Yu's voice was a bit gentle, "We're all from the same sect, so there's no need to pay too much attention to etiquette. Go down and wait first."
The cultivator bowed, and an attendant came up to lead him out.
After this person left, Dao Master Miao Yu came down to meet more than a dozen sect masters from the other Chaos Realms. When no one came for a while, his eyes moved slightly, and a shadow walked out of his body. After just a few steps, he came to an unfathomable place. There was only a jade palace floating here.
He walked slowly to the steps and asked, "Is senior brother here?"
A woman appeared above the jade palace gate, and she bowed and said, "Dao Master, Dao Master Luo Zhan is in the Mi Palace worshiping the patriarch. Please wait for a moment."
When Dao Master Miao Yu heard the mention of the patriarch, his expression became solemn, and he said, "Then I'll wait here."
After a long time, the jade gate opened, and the golden pillar moved. A black-haired, long-bearded, middle-aged Daoist walked out. He was full of green light, and his aura was magnificent. However, there seemed to be an invisible whirlpool behind him that swallowed up all the light and color.
Dao Master Miao Yu came up and bowed, "Greetings, senior brother," and then asked, "Did teacher respond?"
Dao Master Luo Zhan shook his head and sighed, "It's still the same as before, no response." He stroked his beard and said decisively, "If that's the case, then we'll still act according to teacher's order before he left, and strive to not make any mistakes."
Dao Master Miao Yu's expression was slightly solemn, "Will the trial of leaving the void still come?"
Dao Master Luo Zhan said, "Junior brother, don't worry. According to the order, as long as our junior brother arrives, he will rule the Chaotic Domain and control the place of creation from afar. Then, everything will be fine."
Dao Master Miao Yu nodded. According to the edict, this junior brother was the last disciple of the Patriarch and was the only person who could become a Spirit Refinement Cultivator. If they could get him, with his ability, all kinds of dangers could be resolved.
Dao Master Luo Zhan asked, "Has Chen Jiliang arrived? The world behind Qincang is especially important, and it involves the place of creation, so they can't be left out. "
Dao Master Miao Yu said, "The Chaotic Domain where he lives isn't the upper class, so he will always be delayed when he comes to my place.
Dao Master Luo Zhan grunted.
Dao Master Miao Yu said, "Senior brother, his cultivation is weak, and he can only be considered the bottom among the various branches. It doesn't matter whether he comes or not."
Dao Master Luo Zhan said, "Even so, we can let them be in the past. However, the place where the Chaotic Domain colludes with is related to the order, so we can't do without them."
Dao Master Miao Yu said, "Then I will send someone to urge them later."
Dao Master Luo Zhan said, "There's no need for that. They don't dare to go against the order, so we can just wait here."
Above the tall mountain, another wave of air rolled past, and after it landed, a clear body of Daoren was revealed. His eyes were filled with interest, and behind him was a young Daoist who looked seventeen or eighteen years old.
However, just as the two of them came to the front of the golden gate, a clear light flashed, and a burly Daoist appeared. He looked down at Daoren with his hands behind his back, and said with a mocking tone, "Chen Jiliang, why, are you still here this time? Is there no one in your Qincang branch, and only you, the servant boy, are called here? "
Chen Jiliang heard this, but he was not angry. He laughed and said, "So it is Dawei Shangzhen. This old man is clumsy, but thanks to the Ancestral Master, I am a sect master, but I have not made many contributions. Now that I am here as an errand boy, I am making the best use of my abilities."
Dawei Dawei saw that Chen Jiliang mentioned the Ancestral Master, so he snorted and did not dare to say anything more, afraid that he would violate the taboo. Moreover, although Chen Jiliang was not the Ancestral Master's disciple, in terms of seniority, he was far ahead of him, and was on the same level as the Dao Masters. Dawei Dawei did not dare to cross the line, so he glared at Chen Jiliang and left.
The young Daoist spoke with his divine will, "Uncle-Master, this Dawei Sect Master is a Perfected Master, but why does he not speak like a Daoist cultivator?"
Chen Jiliang said, "That's not the case. His Yanghong branch is very particular about being straightforward, and it would be strange if he did not act like this. You see, he does not say anything in the past, and only suppresses it in his heart. Now that the Qincang branch is going to be useless, he can't help but vent it out."
The young Daoist said, "Are we really going to act according to the edict? But Uncle-Master didn't say that he had never heard about this from the Ancestral Master. Moreover, even if there is such an edict, it is for the Qingchen branch, what does it have to do with the Qincang branch? "
Chen Jiliang shook his head and led the young Daoist to their temporary lodging. Along the way, they bumped into other Daoists from time to time, and they greeted each other with cupped fists. However, Chen Jiliang could feel that everyone's attitude towards him had changed as the matter was about to happen.
The young Daoist noticed it too, and he said angrily, "It's a pity that the Qincang branch lacks Mystic Stones, and it's hard for us to cross that hurdle. Until now, there is no Dao Master Zhen Yang, or else this person would not be so rude!"
Back then, when the Great Underworld Ancestral Master established the Chaotic Domain, there were one or several branches that were passed down in each Chaotic Domain. In addition to the disciples of the Ancestral Master, there were hundreds of them. However, there were only ten or so direct disciples of the Ancestral Master, and they were all led by the three orthodox sects.
In fact, in terms of background, the Qincang School was also a righteous sect, and they also had a Chaotic Domain behind them. However, until now, there was not a Dao Master Zhen Yang in the school, so they could not speak, and because of this, they were even faintly ostracized by some sects.
Not long after Chen Jiliang entered the palace, a messenger came and said, "Shangzhen Chen, Dao Master Miao Yu knows that you are here, and he invites you over for a chat."
Chen Jiliang's expression turned serious, and he said, "Daoren will go now, please allow me to talk to Martial Nephew first."
He walked to the side and said to the young Daoist, "Martial Nephew Qiao, today is different from the past. Dao Master Ji Chang is not here, Dao Master Miao Yu and Dao Master Luo Zhan do not like us, and they may find an excuse to find fault with me. If you encounter any problems, remember to be patient, and if there are any grievances, wait for me to come back."
The young Daoist raised his hand and solemnly replied, "Martial Uncle, don't worry, I know the severity."
Chen Jiliang patted him and followed the messenger. After a while, the two of them came into the Golden Palace, and saw Dao Master Miao Yu sitting on the high platform. He came up and bowed, and said, "Dao Master, greetings."
Dao Master Miao Yu looked down and said, "Chen Jiliang, do you know why I called you here?"
Even in the face of the younger generation, because they were of the same lineage, he usually did not call them by their names. However, although Chen Jiliang was also the head of the Qincang lineage, in his eyes, he was just a boy beside the Ancestral Master, and could not be compared to the direct disciples, so his tone was not polite.
Chen Jiliang did not care at all, and said, "Daoren does not understand, please enlighten me."
Dao Master Miao Yu said, "You should also know about the matter of the edict. Soon, the Chaotic Domain behind Qincang will be connected to the place of fortune. This is the place where the Ancestral Master passed down the lineage, and it will be of great use to us, so we need your cooperation."
Chen Jiliang bowed slightly and sighed, "Dao Master also knows that after the five generations of the head of the Qincang, no one has ascended to the Upper Domain. The Talisman of the Ancestral Master has also dimmed, and it is obvious that the world behind it has been extinguished, and all the techniques have been used up. I'm afraid there is no inheritance, and it can no longer be connected to the upper and lower domain."
Dao Master Miao Yu said expressionlessly, "How can I not know about this? It's just that you all ascended to the Upper Domain from that world. As long as you all are still here, follow this cause and effect, and you will eventually find the place of fortune. It doesn't matter if you can't do it, I will do it for you."
Chen Jiliang's heart sank slightly, and he was about to say something, but Dao Master Miao Yu did not give him the chance to speak. He waved his sleeves and said, "Well, it's settled, go back and wait for the news."
