After entering the Southern Heavenly Gate, the path split into two. One led to the Lingxiao Hall on the left, and the other to the Immortal Ascension Stage on the right.
The Lingxiao Hall was not a palace, but a group of immortal palaces. Amidst the white clouds, under the blue sky, there were thousands of golden palaces, thousands of silver palaces, and countless exotic flowers and plants. Immortal Qi and Spiritual Fog filled the air.
The pavilions were dazzling, transparent, and connected layer by layer. Among them, the tallest and most magnificent was the Lingxiao Hall where the Jade Emperor gathered the immortals.
The hall was surrounded by colorful clouds, and there were golden dragons dancing in the sky. Golden-patterned beasts, Jade Qilin pillars, Golden Nails, and Vermilion Doors. Looking from afar, it was extraordinarily noble and gorgeous.
Qin Di didn't know what the Jade Emperor was thinking. However, she could imagine that he would definitely feel like he was looking down at all the immortals in the world from the top of such a high mountain.
He simulated in his heart, "Hmph, I am the supreme Jade Emperor, I am the number one in charge of the Heavenly World. My words are the laws of heaven, and my thoughts are the will of heaven. If I say to eliminate the rebels, I would rather kill three thousand innocents than let one escape. If I say not to let the Goblin achieve Dao, and not to let the Celestial Tree become a spirit, then I will suppress them! All of you better behave! If I say that the world is peaceful and the people are healthy, then there has never been a famine … What, you say millions of people starved to death? That is pure nonsense! What kind of demon is this, take him down quickly … "
Standing inside the Southern Heavenly Gate, he looked at the Lingxiao Hall and thought about the incarnation of the Jade Emperor, becoming the emperor of the human world, and sucking the blood of mortals everywhere. He did not know how he felt.
Just as he was thinking, Shi Kuang pushed him, "Let's go, what are you thinking about? This is the Southern Heavenly Gate, and it represents the reputation of the Celestial Court. We cannot stand here for too long, or else we will have ulterior motives! Even if we lock you up in the Heavenly Prison, that is a common occurrence! "
Qin Di came to his senses and hurriedly followed his master, walking towards the mountain path on the right.
The two of them slowly walked up the Immortal Ascension Stage.
The Immortal Ascension Stage was a ring-shaped platform with a large transmission array in the middle.
The distance from the Tai Wei Enclosure to the Tai Qing Realm was very far. If one were to rely on flying alone, who knew how many years it would take to fly. Moreover, there were several natural chasms between the two immortal realms that were filled with spatial cracks. If one accidentally fell into one of them, even Sengoku might lose his way and even die tragically. Therefore, the immortal sects, Buddhist sects, Demon sects and Tenru Sect spared no expense to build teleportation arrays. Using the teleportation arrays, they could directly send people to the Tai Qing Realm.
Nominally, the teleportation portal at the Southern Heavenly Gate was open to all Senshu.
However, in order to use the teleportation array, one had to pay a large amount of Celestial Crystals.
Even the landlord didn't have any surplus grain! Without Immortal Crystals, one could forget about boarding the teleportation array!
When Qin Di arrived at the Immortal Ascension Stage, he discovered that there were already three people waiting there.
It was unknown how long the three of them had been waiting, but it was clear that they were already anxiously waiting.
"Come quickly, come quickly! Only after gathering five people can we activate the teleportation array! "
"Shi Sengoku, hurry up! Everyone has been waiting impatiently! "
"Marshal Wen, why is it you? Why aren't you guarding the Southern Heavenly Gate? Why are you here? "
"Hehe, I'm the same as you. I've already handed in my resignation. From now on, I'm also free!"
The few of them started chatting as soon as they met. They were obviously subordinates of Lingxiao Hall.
At this moment, a red-faced Sengoku in a green robe walked over and said coldly, "Same old rules, each person has to pay three million Celestial Crystals to board the teleportation array."
Shi Kuang glanced at him and said, "Marshal Guan, you and Marshal Wen are peers. Did he pay the Celestial Crystals? Did you practice favoritism? "
Marshal Guan's red phoenix eyes widened as he puffed out his chest and said loudly, "The rules of the Celestial Court are to treat everyone equally! There's no such thing as practicing favoritism! "
Shi Kuang looked back at Qin Di and said, "Disciple, take out the Celestial Crystals that we've prepared."
Qin Di took out a storage ring that contained six million Celestial Crystals, which was equivalent to six hundred million Celestial Stones. This was a huge amount of wealth. Even a Celestial Music Sect Leader like Shi Kuang would feel the pinch when he took out so many Celestial Crystals. Luckily, Qin Di had sold a batch of high-grade Celestial Metal to Tianbao Hall previously, so he didn't lack Celestial Crystals.
Marshal Guan scanned the storage ring with his divine sense and nodded. "It's done. Everyone, please step into the teleportation array. The journey to Tai Qing Realm is long and full of obstacles. Have a safe journey!"
"Marshal Guan, take care!" Everyone laughed and walked into the teleportation array.
Marshal Wen smiled and said, "Shi Sengoku, why did you bring a disciple? Is he a Celestial Music Sect disciple? Why is he carrying a sword on his back? "
Shi Kuang smiled and said, "It's just an act. Actually, my disciple is proficient in Celestial Music. He's my proudest disciple. "
"Is that so? If there's a chance in the future, I'd like to hear you and your disciple perform together. "
"Then don't even think about it! Since I've resigned from the Celestial Court, I won't play the zither for anyone else. "
"Hehe, Shi Sengoku, if you want to establish a foothold in Shangqing Realm, you'll have to use Celestial Music to defeat your opponents. As for me, I'll definitely have a chance to hear Celestial Music!"
As they spoke, the teleportation array was activated and started to spin faster and faster. Finally, with a "bang", it was like a rocket being launched, sending them out!
This time, the teleportation array took a long time. Qin Di's ears kept buzzing.
Maybe after half a day, the teleportation suddenly stopped!
When Qin Di opened his eyes, he discovered a brand new world in front of him.
This was a white world. It was as if the earth was covered in white snow. The sky was also white. The flowers and grass on the ground looked like they were made of crystal.
A thousand mountains of birds flew away, ten thousand paths of people disappeared. A lone boat with a straw hat fished alone in the cold river!
The light fell, and the world was silent.
Qin Di found it very strange. Why was this place so plain and quiet?
An old man at the peak of the Immortal King laughed, "This is the lowest level of the Tai Qing Realm. The plain air is filled with the 'Tai Qing Essence Qi', which can cleanse the marrow of the people below. Do you know what Sanqing Realm is? What's the difference between it and the Celestial Realm and the mortal realm? "
Shi Kuang smiled and said, "Gong Sengoku, you've been to Sanqing Realm a few times. We're all new here. Why don't you tell us?"
Gong Sengoku smiled and said, "We say that we're outside of the three realms and not in the five elements. The three realms are the Desire Realm, the Color Realm, and the Colorless Realm. Among them, there are six heavens in the Desire Realm, eighteen in the Color Realm, and four in the Colorless Realm. That adds up to twenty-eight heavens. Above that are Chang Rong, Yu Long, Fan Du, and Jia Yi, which are in line with the Central Star Field, Tian Shi Enclosure, Ziwei Enclosure, and Taiwei Enclosure. That adds up to thirty-two heavens.
The place we're standing on now belongs to Taiqing Realm, which is the thirty-third heaven.
From here onwards, we're already outside of the three realms.
Moreover, there are no five elements here! No matter what kind of physique you had in the past, no matter if you cultivated metal, wood, water, fire, or earth type cultivation techniques, you're all the same here!
Dao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things.
