The first day of July, the first day of the second half of the year.
The sun has already risen from the East China Sea and is high in the sky. The sunlight reaches the east coast of Gezhou in the north, flows through the middle territory, and shines all the way to the west coast.
The entire Beizhi Gezhou was cloudless and sunny.
At the first quarter of the year, the Youshen Square on the top of Donghua Mountain was crowded with people.
In addition to the immortal monks who participated in the Wandering Gods Fair and the Three Continent Competition, small towns at the foot of Donghua Mountain, and even ordinary people within a radius of three hundred miles, also took the trouble to come up the mountain to welcome the Goddess Empress for the centenary Wandering Gods Fair. .
As the number one deity in Beizhi Gezhou, the Goddess Empress is not only an invincible giant revered by the immortal monks, but also the supreme god in the hearts of all Beizhou people.
The Donghua Mountain Shrine has never stopped ordinary people from climbing the mountain to worship the Goddess.
Even the title "Empress" was added by ordinary people in Beizhou on their own in order to show intimacy.
It's just an ordinary day, and the Goddess will not show her holiness in front of people at will.
But today is a rare day to see the golden body of the Goddess up close, so the people at the foot of the mountain came in unison to devoutly come.
Today on Donghua Mountain, there are no distinction between immortal monks and ordinary people. Everyone present is participating in the grand event.
However, these ordinary people still maintain a certain degree of awe towards the various immortal monks who can fly into the sky and escape from the earth, and do not get too close.
Immortal monks from all walks of life formed a circle around the Shenyou Platform in the center of the square.
However, judging from the number of people, they were actually a minority, and a sea of people composed of ordinary people surrounded them.
Representatives of major dynasties, kingdoms, and immortal sects, including young geniuses and young grandmasters from East Penglai Continent, Northwest Fenghuo Continent, and North Fenghuo Continent who participated in the Three Continents Competition, stood at the front.
Diao'ao of Tang Dynasty, Helian Hengshan, Rangju, the ancestor of Zhigeshan military strategist, and Xu Ziqian, the chief deacon of Langya Academy, stood on the high platform in the four directions, facing the Shenyou Platform in the distance.
Needless to say, Rangju and Xu Ziqian represent the two most transcendent holy places in Beizhi Gezhou and support this Donghua Mountain Traveling Gods Association.
Since Tang Diao'ao and Helian Hengshan are here, they naturally represent their respective continents, show respect to the Lord Donghua Mountain, and contribute to today's grand gathering.
In front of the four-sided high platform, there are a number of mountain and river gods and human gods represented by the second god of Beizhi Gezhou, Xuandu Shenjun.
The number one divine attendant in Donghua Mountain, Feng Niang, also known as "Wind God", stood at the front alongside the Xuandu Divine Lord.
Everyone from all parties has arrived, the auspicious time is approaching, and everyone is looking forward to the arrival of the Goddess.
Li Chaoyi and Xiao Qianjun were also standing among the young talents in Gezhou, Beizhi. Next to them were Changchun Daozi Nanliujing and Chen Bingji, who was second on the list.
Xie Yi, who is number one on the list, is not far away, as is Jin Doudou, a girl riding a dog, and Song Jiu, a blind boy with bloody hands.
The young girl Xianlong Lian Nier was still drunk and sleeping soundly, but she was not present. Feng Niang arranged for her to rest in a side hall.
Donghua Mountain Shrine attaches great importance to this young dragon who was born in Ten Thousand Dragons Cave.
After all, the Goddess Empress had an old friendship with the aunt of this young fairy dragon, the innocent dragon of Wanlong Cave that walked in the world.
If an old friend comes later, he should be treated well.
Except for this unattractive girl fairy dragon, all the immortal monks and gods from all walks of life who attended the meeting last night were present.
At this moment, the sun is warm and the sky and the earth are clear.
Feng Niang sang and shouted: "The auspicious time has come, the Donghua Mountain Dojo Tour God Meeting has officially begun, I respectfully invite the Goddess to give me the Dharma!"
Hearing this singing and shouting, all the people in all directions of Youshen Square knelt down.
All the immortal monks and gods from all walks of life bowed their heads, clasped their fists, or performed the Ten Thousand Blessings Ceremony.
On the north and south high platforms, Zhige Shan Rangju and Xu Ziqian of Langya Academy also saluted together.
Only on the east and west high platforms, Tang Diao'ao and Helian Hengshan, two of the ten strongest people in the continent, had aloof status and did not need to express themselves. They watched the ceremony solemnly.
Almost as soon as everyone bowed down, a bright divine light fell from the sky and landed on the divine platform in the center.
When the divine light dissipated, a majestic, solemn, and luxurious tall woman wearing a divine robe appeared.
Needless to say, this is the protagonist of today's ceremony, the No. 1 deity of Gezhou in the North, the Lord of Donghua Mountain - Yun Duise!
At this time, her temperament was sacred and solemn, completely different from the lazy and alcoholic image in legend.
No matter the gods from all walks of life, the immortal monks, or the young geniuses saw it, they couldn't help but be in awe and did not dare to have any blasphemous thoughts.
The ordinary people who came with great reverence started to worship the Goddess when they saw her coming. Because there were so many people, the scene was very spectacular.
However, they had just kowtowed to each other and wanted to kowtow again, but the goddess on the stage raised her jade hand lightly, and a clear light flew out, and all the kneeling people couldn't help but stand up.
Feeling the divine radiance, the people at the foot of the mountain were very excited, and at the same time they admired and worshiped the Goddess a little more.
Yun Muhu, who was dressed in a luxurious divine robe, withdrew her jade hand and looked around the audience solemnly.
When her eyes passed over the gathering place of young geniuses in Beizhi Gezhou, Li Chaoyi felt that the Goddess Empress seemed to have glanced at him one more time.
But this feeling is very inexplicable, a bit dazed, not sure.
When the Goddess's eyes turned elsewhere, he could look squarely at her on the stage. The solemn, luxurious, and sacred temperament flowing around her was awe-inspiring.
After all, in the relevant biographies he had read, the God Lord of Donghua Mountain was not only famous for his bad temper, but also his lazy, alcoholic, and lethargic temperament, which was unique among the gods in the world.
When I saw it today, I suddenly realized that the rumors were false and should not be fully believed.
Xiao Qianjun didn't think as much as her elder brother did. She just felt that the goddess on the stage was indeed very beautiful, solemn, majestic, and unparalleled in elegance.
This fits her image of the number one god in Beizhou.
The Youshen Club was grand and lively, and no one cared about the thoughts of the brothers and sisters. Everyone's eyes were only on the Goddess and the Empress on the stage.
After Yun Duixi looked around for a week, he glanced at the cloudless sky and said calmly: "Today is the first day of July, the first day of the second half of the year."
"This palace has been nourished by the fortune of the mountains and rivers of Beizhi Gezhou for hundreds of years. I have made great contributions and should repay the mountains and rivers of Beizhi Gezhou and the people of this continent."
"That is why I have chosen today to hold the centenary Wandering Gods Festival. Thank you all for coming to watch the ceremony."
"In a moment, I will be patrolling on behalf of Heaven and traveling around Beizhou. Please witness it!"
Led by Tang Diao'ao, Helian Hengshan, Rangju, and Xu Ziqian on the square platform, everyone in the square shouted: "We are waiting to witness!"
At this time, Tang Diao'ao and Helian Hengshan also bowed their hands to show their respect.
Yun Musha nodded, with a smile on his face.
Then she raised her sleeves and said in a clear voice: "Please all the gods join me in dedicating their divine power to feed the mountains and rivers."
Immediately, the various gods such as Xuandu Shenjun and Feng Niang who were standing at the forefront of the square, each of them had a stream of divine power flying out of their bodies, and together they turned into divine rain and gathered above the Shenyou Platform.
When thousands of divine rains gather together, dusk clouds rise into the sky.
When everyone thought she was about to travel thousands of miles across Beizhi Gezhou, she was hovering in the sky.
Donghua Mountain will hold a traveling spirit meeting every hundred years. In previous years, at this time, the Goddess and the Empress would directly start wandering, turning the accumulated Shinto luck over the past century, together with the divine power contributed by various gods, into Shinto nectar and spreading it. Across a continent.
Never has it stopped so suddenly.
It was not the first time for Rang Ju, the ancestor of Zhige Mountain, and Xu Ziqian, the chief deacon of Langya Academy, to watch the ceremony, and it was not the first time for Xuandu Shenjun to participate. They did not know what was going on.
Even Feng Niang felt a little strange.
But when she thought of her master's behavior, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and turned her head to look at the figure in the green shirt in the crowd.
Sure enough, just when she turned around, the dusk cloud in the sky stretched out her right hand to call: "Mr. Li, please come with me."
The entire audience was astonished, and everyone followed the eyes of the Divine Master and looked towards the gathering place of the young geniuses in Beizhi Gezhou.
Changchun Dao Zi Nanliu Jing, Chen Bingji, the bloody-handed blind boy Song Jiu, the dog-riding girl Jin Doudou, the leader of the human list Xie Wei and others immediately turned around and looked at the green-shirted figure next to them.
Because there is only one person named Li among them.
Li Changyi looked stunned. He didn't expect that the Goddess Empress would call him at this time.
Xiao Qianjun beside him was a little confused and didn't react. When he realized that everyone's eyes were on the senior brother, he finally realized it, and his face suddenly showed surprise.
The Goddess Empress actually knows about the senior brother. Does that mean she wants to marry Sister Jiang Jinwan to be her senior brother-in-law? Is there hope?
Including the four people on the high platform, Helian Hengshan, Tang Diaiao'ao, Rang Ju, and Xu Ziqian, everyone was looking at Li Chang.
Li Chaoyi also reacted quickly, cupped his hands in greeting and said: "Your Majesty, my virtues are shallow and my cultivation is low. How dare you travel with your Majesty?"
This is also a question for everyone.
The twilight clouds in the sky replied calmly: "Two months ago, Mr. Li promoted the sealing of heaven and earth at Xiufeng Ridge in Hengzhou of the Wei Dynasty, adding a god of heaven and earth to Beizhi Gezhou. He made great contributions to Beizhou's Shinto and mountains and rivers. , Limin."
"This palace's spiritual journey is to patrol on behalf of heaven, to experience the thousands of countries in Beizhou, and to ask sir to witness. It is also to let Beizhou Shenhuo appreciate your virtues and temper your body."
It turned out that it was because of the sealing of heaven and earth.
The reason was not surprising, but Li Xiangyi was a little surprised.
He really felt that helping Peach Blossom God Liu Zhehe, to seal the heaven and earth, and to heal the origin of the demon body was just a smooth move. He really didn't expect the following repercussions.
First, he was on the Great Dao Gold List, which allowed him, who was only in one realm at that time, to be listed in the "Amazing World List" alone and become famous in all nine continents.
Now the Divine Lord of Donghua Mountain invited him to join him in his spiritual journey.
Was the sealing of heaven and earth really so significant?
Li Chaoyi was confused. On the high platform were Helian Hengshan and Tang Diaiaoao. Below the high platform were Hei Tongtian, Baisha Dharma King, Jingchun Great Sword Immortal, and Sima Wenyin Female Sword Immortal, including the Xuandu Shenjun before Shenyou Platform. The gods of higher order are all thinking secretly.
The Donghua Mountain Divine Lord's actions must have deep meaning, rather than being random.
So, if she does this, what kind of impact will it have on Shinto, North Zhige Continent, East Penglai Continent and Northwest Fenghuo Continent?
This matter is worth pondering and deducing.
Even Feng Niang felt that her master's actions were definitely not because her husband was the future uncle and wanted to invite him to go on a trip together and just whisper a few words.
But no matter what everyone thought, Yun Muxi, who was wearing a divine robe in the sky, said no more words.
Everyone is waiting for Li Qingyi's decision.
Feeling everyone's eyes on him, he saw that the Goddess had been waiting for his answer.
Li Chaoyi put away all his thoughts, bent down and bowed: "It is an honor to be born late in life to be invited by the Goddess. I am ashamed of it, but it is disrespectful."
Then a breeze blew, and as soon as his green shirt fluttered, he flew up into the sky and stood side by side with the God Lord of Donghua Mountain.
Yun Muzi glanced at him, said nothing, and showed no more expressions. She only had a flash of divine light and took him westward.
Starting from the foot of Donghua Mountain, wherever the Goddess and the Goddess wander and meditate, there will be divine rain falling.
Wherever the sweet rain reaches, the miasma disperses, grass grows, and the diseases of the people dissipate.
Li Chaoyi rode the vast breeze and followed the Goddess, witnessing and observing along the way.
…
Eastern border, Taihua Dynasty.
The emperor of the current dynasty, along with all the civil and military officials, together with the imperial master, were waiting at the Temple of Heaven for the Divine Lord of Donghua Mountain to travel to the dynasty. They only waited for the rain of divine rain to fall, and the entire dynasty and surrounding countries would be clear and bright.
Langya Academy in the north.
Chen Chuan, who was still dressed as a farmer, stood in a wheat field at the foot of Langya Mountain with a hoe, watching the rain that started in the far east.
"The Goddess Empress actually brought that little guy Li Changyi with her. Could it be that she saw some opportunity in him?"
"You can't just say a few words of love to your lover just to get rid of the people watching the ceremony, right?"
"Besides, that little guy Li Changyi probably doesn't know about the oath of heart yet. He may be full of doubts, but he doesn't dare to refuse or ask."
"Tsk, I don't know if this marriage was planned by that old boy Zhou Lengxi. It's quite interesting to watch."
After sighing with emotion, he put down his hoe and prepared to return to the academy to take a look at the wordless book in the secret room to see if there was any answer to what happened today.
…
In the middle region, Hanshan Academy Ai Wan Pavilion.
Knowing that today is the opening day of the Donghua Mountain Traveling Gods Festival, Zhou Lengxi came here early and looked to the east.
The two deputy mountain chiefs, Dong Xieyang and Liu Buming, had other matters to deal with, so they did not come to watch.
Instead, Wu Ying, the master's wife, who had nothing to do and was worried about her eldest apprentice and Xiao Qianjun who were traveling far away, strolled here with the old man.
When the right moment came and the game of the gods officially began, she saw her old man's brows slightly furrowed, and the right hand left in his sleeve, which had been pinching his fingers to deduce.
Even after a while, even in front of the old man, there was an innate gossip.
"What's wrong? It can't be Xiao Ye or Xiao Qian'er. Something happened?"
She was a little worried, but with the Goddess and Empress present in Donghua Mountain, how could something happen?
Zhou Lengxi shook his head slightly: "Nothing happened."
As he said this, the calculations and deductions in his hands and the innate gossip in front of him did not stop, but more spiritual power was injected into him.
…
It ends in the western border of Gezhou in the north, a small town.
On the busy street, a man in ragged clothes and a crazy expression suddenly looked east.
