Once the Grand Supreme Elder arrived, the atmosphere of the entire immortal banquet became extremely solemn.
The fairies who were originally chatting and laughing did not dare to laugh. The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother also became much more serious.
The Chang 'e who were preparing to dance hurriedly adjusted their breathing and put on the most perfect smile. They repeatedly told themselves in their hearts that the old immortal on the platform was a statue, a statue …
Of course, the most nervous were some in-name disciples of Ren School.
They did not even dare to breathe loudly. After bowing, they lowered their heads and sat in their seats, afraid that the Grand Supreme Elder would ask, "Who are you?"
That would really be a formal death. There would be no future!
Even the personal disciples of Chan School and Jie School were sitting upright and deliberating over their words.
Perfected Taiyi, in particular, had originally licked his lips and was prepared to give the people from the Western Sect some common sayings of the "Netherworld" and the "Yang World".
Once the Grand Supreme Elder arrived, Taiyi could only shut up obediently. To be safe, he even took the initiative to seal his mouth.
The Grand Supreme Elder was the incarnation of the Taiqing Saint. It was basically equivalent to the Taiqing Saint appearing directly.
Among the experts of the Dao Sect present, only Master Xuandu's expression did not change.
After the Great Daoist Master bowed to the Grand Supreme Elder, he looked around calmly and admired the expressions of the disciples of the Dao Sect and the immortals of the Celestial Court.
The other disciples of the Dao Sect were more nervous than the other.
Although the disciples of Jie School were rather relaxed in front of the Grandmaster of Heaven Hierarch and could speak frankly, in front of the Grand Supreme Elder, they had to take the initiative to show their gentleness, respect, and elegance.
On the other hand, the disciples of Chan School were the opposite. At that moment, they were worried that they would be too polite and make the Grand Supreme Elder, who advocated peace and inaction, unhappy …
The immortals of the Celestial Court were better. They were only very afraid, but they could not be considered terrified. At the same time, they sighed in their hearts that the Water God was really shameless. Ahem, shameless.
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother organized the celebration. The immortals and gods from all directions came to congratulate them. The Grand Supreme Elder Tushita rode an ox and the disciples of the Dao Sect sat upright.
After tying up Little Silver, who had been forced to play the role of a black bull, Li Changshou hurried back to the immortal banquet. In his heart, however, he was thinking about how to take advantage of this opportunity to leave a good impression on the Celestial Court in the hearts of the big brothers and sisters of the Dao Sect.
At that time, if they could willingly enter the list with their bodies, it would be better than having a wisp of their Essence Soul trapped by the God List.
The Jade Pool Immortal Banquet was divided into three venues. Other than the main venue where all the mighty figures gathered, there were two other venues on the left and right that could accommodate the Heavenly Generals and Itinerant Immortals of the Celestial Court, as well as a small number of River Deities from the Celestial Court.
The scale of the ceremony had already surpassed the previous Immortality Peach Banquets.
Of course, the main reason was that the Celestial Court didn't have so many mouths during the Immortality Peach Banquet.
After entering the immortal banquet, Li Changshou looked up and saw that the Grand Supreme Elder had already taken his seat.
The Grand Supreme Elder was still sitting in his usual position, resting on the throne slightly behind the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. It was as if the things around him had nothing to do with him.
Not long after, a white cloud carried six disciples of the Western Sect and flew over.
When they arrived, they saw the formation inside and the Grand Supreme Elder's figure. Their mentality could not help but change.
It was just the advancement of the Deity Position of the disciples of Ren School in the Celestial Court. Was there a need to alarm the incarnation of the strongest Saint, who usually did not appear at all?
The disciples of the great sects and the disciples of the great sects …
It was not the same, but it was not the same.
The four Lao Dao and the two middle-aged Daoists braced themselves and walked forward. They were about to take out their congratulatory words and recite them hastily when they heard Li Changshou ask them to wait. Their scalps went numb and they almost turned around to escape!
Li Changshou said seriously,
"Fellow Daoists, since you have come to the Celestial Court, why don't you worship the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother?"
How could the six disciples of the Western Sect dare to say no?
Now, everyone knew how powerful the Water God of the Celestial Court was.
If the Water God of the Celestial Court, who was now Taibai Changgeng, caught hold of a small problem, he would immediately be involved. He could not wait to blame the karma of the destruction of the ancient Primordial World on them!
As the saying goes, follow your heart and don't go beyond the rules.
The six people from the Western Sect walked forward obediently and bowed to the Jade Emperor.
The Jade Emperor nodded with a smile. He appeared calm and magnanimous. He seemed to be more stable than before.
Li Changshou did not make things difficult for the six ordinary Western disciples. He was worried about the "Eldest Senior Brother of the Western Sect". He did not know if the other party had any tricks up his sleeves.
To be safe, he had to hold back.
Li Changshou had expected that the Western Sect would begin to pay attention to Ksitigarbha's "uniqueness".
In other words, Ksitigarbha was one of the few things that the Western Sect could do.
After the six people of the Western Sect finished reciting the simple congratulatory words written by Ksitigarbha, Dong Mu Gong took the initiative to stand up and led them to a remote spot near the door with a smile.
The disciples of the Western Sect immediately looked at Dong Mu Gong gratefully.
It was also rare for General Dongmu to do such dirty and tiring work. On the contrary, it was time for the other party to be grateful.
As soon as the small episode ended, streams of light flew over. The Dragon Kings of the four seas each brought a beautiful Dragon Lady and a handsome dragon son into the Jade Pool and bowed to the Jade Emperor, the Queen Mother.
After the ceremony, the Dragon King of the East Ocean, Ao Guang, led the three Dragon Kings and the eight Dragon Sons, Dragon Lady, and turned around. They bowed to Li Changshou in unison and said all sorts of blessings.
Li Changshou returned the greeting and thanked him repeatedly. His smile was rather friendly, but both parties deliberately maintained a certain distance and did not appear too intimate.
Although the Celestial Court did not have the saying that their contributions were too high, no matter who it was, they did not want to see their subordinates establish a solid faction.
The Dragons had originally been helped into the Celestial Court by Li Changshou. Li Changshou was also considered the immediate superior of the Dragon Kings of the four seas. He was in charge of the water affairs of the world. It was the wisest choice for the two of them to show some distance.
As soon as the Dragon Kings and Dragon Sons took their seats, a cold breeze blew in the Jade Pool. The ten Yama Lords entered …
Not long after, Emperor Da Yu, who was dressed in a luxurious robe, rushed over elegantly. He was also arranged to sit in a conspicuous position.
The Jade Emperor waited for a while longer. When he saw that most of the guests had arrived, he called out,
"Changgeng."
Li Changshou, who was rubbing wine bottles with Fairy Yun Xiao, hurriedly snapped back to his senses and stood up.
"I'm here!"
"Everyone is here to congratulate you today." The Jade Emperor smiled and said, "Walk around more. Feel free to drink and chat with your senior brothers and sisters. Don't stick to the etiquette of a ruler."
Li Changshou smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
At that moment, Li Changshou picked up the wine bottle and looked around. Everyone immediately fell silent.
Returning the favor was Li Changshou's favorite thing to do.
At that moment, he walked around the short table and carried the wine bottle with both hands. He went to the middle of the platform and bowed to the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.
"Back then, I was just an itinerant cultivator of Ren School. Under the orders of the Great Daoist Master, I established the Sea God Temple in the South Ocean with the aim of educating mortals and continuing the destiny.
I still remember that day, the Jade Emperor and Mu Gong came to the mortal world to patrol. They wanted to find a way to save the people and the water and fire. They happened to arrive at the Sea God Temple and allowed me to have a chat with His Majesty.
If not for His Majesty's appreciation and the Great Daoist Master's guidance, it would have been difficult for me to have my current glory. It would have been difficult for me to have such an opportunity to become a disciple of Teacher.
The first cup is for His Majesty and the Goddess.
I wish the Celestial Court prosperity and the Three Realms peace. Your Majesty's virtue will benefit immortals and mortals! "
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother smiled and picked up the wine bottle in front of them. They clinked glasses with Li Changshou from afar.
The Queen Mother naturally took a sip in a dignified and elegant manner. However, the Jade Emperor waved his hand and gulped it down. His eyes were filled with emotions as he said loudly,
He said loudly, "Back then, when I first met Changgeng in the South Ocean of the mortal world, the twelve strategies that Changgeng offered have all been realized!
I actually don't know how to be the Heavenly Emperor. I don't know how to teach all living beings, how to uphold the Heavenly Dao, or how to stabilize the world.
At that time, how weak was the Celestial Court?
Who in the Primordial World knew about it? Where could they hear about it in the trichiliocosm?
Changgeng in the Celestial Court is like Changgeng's Deity Position today. Taibai, Qiming!
How fortunate I am to be able to receive Changgeng's help! "
Mu Gong stood up. The immortals of the Celestial Court, the Dragon King, and the Yama Lords raised their cups to toast the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.
Mu Gong shouted, "Your Majesty has received the help of a good official. May the Celestial Court live forever and the Three Realms be peaceful."
The immortals shouted in unison, "Your Majesty's virtue will benefit immortals and mortals!"
The Jade Emperor poured wine and stood up to drink three cups with the immortals of the Celestial Court. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, he was still filled with pride.
The disciples of the great sects and a few mighty figures watched from the side. In a daze, they could see the power of the Celestial Court. It was now unstoppable.
Following that, Li Changshou walked back to his seat. The fairy who was serving him hurriedly delivered a second cup of immortal wine.
Li Changshou raised the wine high and quickly walked to the side of the platform. He bowed deeply to the Grand Supreme Elder.
"This second cup of wine, I dare to toast the Grand Supreme Elder.
I cultivate the Dao of Tranquility and Inaction that Teacher taught me. I walk the path of balance between Yin and Yang.
If I don't have this Dao, how can I obtain this result?
I can face many dangers because of Teacher's name.
The reason why I can have my current Dao is because of Teacher's teachings.
Every time I have doubts, confusion, and confusion, it's always Teacher who gives me pointers and solves my confusion.
Grand Supreme Elder, you don't have to hold the cup. I'll express my gratitude. "
After saying that, he raised his head and drank it.
The Grand Supreme Elder smiled faintly and said slowly, "You've always been good."
Li Changshou's heart felt warm. He lowered his head and bowed three times. He returned to his seat to take the wine and turned to the side.
The third cup was to Master Xuandu.
The fourth cup was to Emperor Da Yu and the few mighty figures.
The fifth cup was to Mu Gong and the righteous gods.
The sixth cup was to the Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters of Chan School and Jie School.
Every cup was filled with "heartfelt" words. He was naturally filled with gratitude and gratitude to the Great Daoist Master. He was not stingy with his praises to his senior brothers and sisters who had helped him.
His words and actions were measured. He stopped praising.
When he toasted, his actions were polite and carefree. He did not feel pretentious at all, nor did he make others feel that he was worldly.
With just a toast and a few words, Li Changshou vividly explained the word "comprehensive", causing many immortals to sigh.
I really can't do it myself.
No wonder Taibai Changgeng was valued by the strongest Saint.
For the seventh cup of wine, Li Changshou walked a little further. He walked to a corner and stood in front of Ao Yi, Bian Zhuang, and the Golden-Winged Roc. He raised his cup to the three of them.
The three Heavenly Generals were a little startled at first, but then they hurriedly raised their wine cups.
Ao Yi's eyes shone brightly, and there was a faint smile on his lips. There was no need to say anything else.
The handsome face of the Golden-Winged Roc was touched. He lowered his head and sighed. His eyes were red.
It was still Bian Zhuang, the popular Celestial Court recorder who had been through a lot, who smiled and said,
"Lord Taibai Jinxing, you think too highly of us … We've seen the bottom line. You can do whatever you want."
Li Changshou almost broke his cultivation.
After the seventh toast, Li Changshou returned to his seat. He bowed slightly to the Jade Emperor and sat beside Yun Xiao.
The Jade Emperor understood and stood up.
"The start of the Celestial Court was difficult. There were many dangers along the way, and there were ferocious things on both sides. It was all thanks to the suppression of the Grand Supreme Elder that we were able to achieve the situation we have today.
Dear ministers, join me in toasting the Grand Supreme Elder! "
The Queen Mother and the immortals of the Celestial Court stood up again and toasted the Grand Supreme Elder.
The Grand Supreme Elder nodded with a smile and did not say much.
After drinking a cup, the Jade Emperor was in a good mood. The smile on his lips did not disappear.
Dong Mu Gong stood up and said, "Your Majesty, Chang 'e and the others have been preparing for a long time. Should we let them dance to celebrate Lord Taibai Jinxing's promotion?"
"Yes!"
Dong Mu Gong made a gesture and cheerful music floated over from the side.
A layer of white fog spread over the jade-paved ground. Two rows of Chang 'e walked over leisurely and bowed to the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother. When they stood up, they had already changed into a dance posture …
Li Changshou watched for a while with the mentality of academic research before turning to look at Yun Xiao.
"Hmm?" Yun Xiao blinked, her eyes filled with curiosity.
Li Changshou smiled and picked up the wine bottle. He whispered, "Can I toast you with the eighth cup?"
Yun Xiao raised the jade bottle in front of her with her slender fingers. A fairy serving beside her hurriedly poured wine for Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao asked gently, "Why do you still have to toast me? Do you have any explanation? "
"This cup is different from the previous seven cups." Li Changshou's eyes were filled with emotions. He said warmly, "The previous seven cups were for the past. This cup is for you and me in the future.
I hope that we can still drink and enjoy together thousands of years later. "
Yun Xiao's gaze was reluctant and rippled. She clinked her cup with Li Changshou's. She raised her cup, covered her sleeve, and downed it.
Many experts of Jie School at the side skillfully took out jade talismans and jade slips and memorized those words. The immortals of Chan School were stunned.
The Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother looked at each other and smiled.
However, the Queen Mother said, "Your Majesty, it's rare for such a grand event to happen today. Why don't you invite Heng 'e to come and dance for Changgeng?"
The Jade Emperor sent a voice transmission. "That's not good, right? Fairy Yun Xiao is here. "
The Queen Mother frowned slightly and looked at him meaningfully.
The Jade Emperor did not seem to understand, but he felt that his junior sister must have a reason for doing that. He immediately cleared his throat and summoned Mu Gong to tell him about it.
Mu Gong said, "Your Majesty, Fairy Heng 'e seems to be bound by an oath and can't leave the moon."
"An oath is the power of the Heavenly Dao," the Jade Emperor said. "My decree can naturally be resolved."
"Yes." Mu Gong no longer had any doubts. He lowered his head and answered. He hurriedly rode a cloud to the moon.
Amidst the singing and dancing, immortals began to walk around. Finally, the public gift receiving segment that Li Changshou had been waiting for for a long time began.
The first to move was the immortal of Chan School, Chi Jingzi. He took a brocade box and placed it in front of Li Changshou. Li Changshou stood up and rejected it. He accepted the brocade box and did not open it.
Then, the various immortals walked towards Li Changshou. Those who should give gifts hurriedly gave them.
The gifts of the immortals of the Celestial Court were the most exquisite, but it was difficult for them to have any treasures.
The gifts of the immortals of the two sects were simple. However, immortal light was dense and the light of treasures shone in all directions. They were all extraordinary items.
Ao Yi and Bian Zhuang circled behind Li Changshou and helped Li Changshou accept the gifts and count them. Li Changshou was only in charge of exchanging pleasantries and thanking them.
Gradually, the gifts went up the stage. For some reason, the immortals of the Chan School and Jie School began to compete again.
Perfected Taiyi of Chan School gave away Connate Yin-Yang treasures, and the Goddess of Golden Spirit of Jie School gave away Connate Five-Element numinous treasures.
Perfected Yu Ding of Chan School gave away the remnant of a precious treasure, and Qiongxiao Fairy of Jie School gave away the Spirit Dispersing Holy Water …
Then, the Black Clouds Immortal of Jie School gave away six numinous treasures. The immortals of Jie School gave away a pile of precious materials, and the immortals of Jie School gave away two ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs …
Due to the advantage of having more people, the immortals of Jie School quickly gained the upper hand.
After the competition between the two sides, Li Changshou naturally gained a lot. However, the Great Daoist Master, who had originally prepared a few trinkets for Li Changshou, silently took out his trump card, the mystical ability jade token …
The main show was at the back.
The Dragon King of the East Ocean waved his hand. The eight Dragon Sons, Dragon Lady, walked forward together. They each held a brocade box that was still open.
The immortals focused and saw that there were eight rings of different styles in the eight brocade boxes. There were a total of 64 rings.
Upon closer inspection, the rings were all high-level storage Dharma treasures!
The Dragon Kings of the four seas stroked their beards and chuckled. They thought that they had firmly taken the lead in giving gifts today.
King Qinguang, who was at the side, suddenly stood up and calmly walked to Li Changshou's side. He looked around and took out three diamond-shaped jade stones cautiously.
King Qinguang smiled in embarrassment and said in a low voice,
"Lord Taibai Jinxing, the Netherworld is in the Netherworld. There aren't many other treasures. It's not good to show off some specialties. These are considered the trump cards of the Magi.
Don't decline. Ancestor asked us to bring them to you. He said that they are of great use to you.
There are three drops of essence blood left behind by the ancient ancestors. One drop can create a Grand Magus.
These three drops are Ancestor Gong Gong's original spirit blood, these three drops are Ancestor Hou Tu's original spirit blood, and these three drops are Ancestor Di River's original spirit blood. Ancestor Hou Tu said that you have your own uses. "
Li Changshou was rendered speechless.
Everyone's gazes gathered over, and even the Grand Supreme Elder took a glance over.
"Lord Taibai Jinxing." King Qinguang stuffed the three diamond-shaped jade stones into Li Changshou's hand. "Don't decline us. You've helped us too much."
"Thank you," Li Changshou said slowly and put away the three jade stones solemnly. "I will definitely go to the Six Paths of Reincarnation to thank the Lady of Earth in the future."
"You're welcome."
King Qinguang heaved a sigh of relief and bowed to Li Changshou. He calmly walked back to his seat.
He would definitely win this round.
Everyone started to discuss the Origin Blood Essence of the Witch Ancestor and talked about the ancient past.
At that moment, in the corner of the immortal banquet, two figures who were preparing to dance were weakly observing the various big shots.
Ling Zhuzi was dressed in a long, slim robe. The young girl beside him, Yu Tu, was dressed in a cute short skirt. At that moment, her face was a little pale.
Ling Zhuzi whispered, "What should we do?"
Da Da Da Da …
Yu Tu's silver teeth chattered slightly as she trembled and said,
"When you asked me to help you rehearse previously … you didn't say that you were going to dance in front of the Grand Supreme Elder today … Forget it … Forget it …"
"I'll dance by myself." Ling Zhuzi sighed. "I've already told Sister Chang 'e that it's time for us to go up after they dance. We can't not go."
Yu Tu hurriedly said, "Have you thought it through? If you embarrass yourself, you won't be able to survive in the Primordial World in the future! "
"What's there to be afraid of!?!"
Ling Zhuzi raised his head and puffed out his chest. "Why should a good man be afraid of being embarrassed?"
Jade Rabbit mumbled, "Your master might lose all face."
"This …"
Ling Zhuzi was conflicted. He was rather concerned about Perfected Taiyi's reputation.
Yu Tu thought for a while and bit her lips. She raised her hand and patted Ling Zhuzi's shoulder twice. She said crisply, "We're good brothers. I can't not help you. If you have a way to make me not afraid, there shouldn't be any mistakes in dancing.
After all, I was raised by my master. I've been practicing dancing in the Moon Palace for so many years. "
Ling Zhuzi deliberated carefully and said softly, "I know that the Magi have a secret technique that can make people forget their fear."
"What is it?"
"Pain." Ling Zhuzi hesitated and said, "Why don't I try punching you?"
Yu Tu blinked. "Is it really useful? Don't use too much strength … Come on! "
"Ha!"
Ling Zhuzi shouted softly and punched Yu Tu's chest. The latter took three steps back and sat on the ground.
The young girl opened her mouth and a wisp of blood seeped out. Her face was filled with despair.
"I haven't used any strength. Why did you fall?"
Ling Zhuzi hurriedly supported him and asked, "Are you still afraid?"
Yu Tu tilted her head weakly. "I'm … I'm afraid of being beaten to death by you …"
"Huh?"
A deep voice suddenly sounded from the side. Ling Zhuzi and Yu Tu shuddered and hurriedly turned their heads to look. They happened to see the travel-worn Zhao Gongming flying over. He muttered and flashed past the side.
"Why do young Dao companions nowadays like to play such tricks?"
Yu Tu and Ling Zhuzi looked at each other. The young girl blushed and hurriedly turned her head away. Her blush climbed to her ears.
Ling Zhuzi chuckled and said, "Senior, it seems like you've misunderstood.
We're brothers, not Dao companions. How can Dao companions be more important than brothers!?! "
Yu Tu was rendered speechless.
This world is too difficult.
