The white ape swung through the forest, carefully avoiding the territory of various large beasts. On the way, he was almost bitten by a green snake hidden on a branch. It was not until nightfall that he almost reached the foot of the mountain.
At this time, there was no sunlight, but the white ape felt comfortable. Through the moonlight, the white ape could faintly observe the road. It knew that it was not safe to rest in an unfamiliar forest at night, so it walked resolutely into the mountains.
"Hey, little monkey, what are you doing in the mountains?"
A giant monkey asked with its tail hanging on a branch, its body suddenly hanging down.
White Ape was startled, but unexpectedly found that he could understand the strange language spoken by Ma Hou. He was whining and whining, but he couldn't understand why.
The big monkey rubbed its chin and said, "It turns out it's just a little monkey that hasn't become a spirit yet. You'd better go back quickly. It's not peaceful in this mountain."
The white ape shook his head and ran towards the mountain past the big horse monkey. The big horse monkey shouted: "Hey! Is there a giant insect that has become a spirit in the mountain? Are you going to deliver food?"
The white ape turned a deaf ear and ran wildly into the mountain. Gradually, the mountain became steeper. The white ape climbed up rocks and trees, and went straight to the heights. Not long after, he suddenly heard a shocking roar.
The white ape was startled. Is there really a big insect in this mountain?
It hung on the tree and thought for a moment. It thought that the big insect couldn't climb the tree, so it tried its best to pick up a high branch and jumped up. The further it went into the forest, the closer the tiger roared, and even a gloomy wind blew, and the white ape jumped When he passed a branch, he was almost blown down, but fortunately he managed to catch the branch.
At this moment, the white ape suddenly understood what it means to become a spirit. There is also an old monkey in the group who is extremely old. He can attract the wind, which is very cool, and he can make wine, which is very delicious... But presumably the evil wind of the big insect, It's definitely not as comfortable as the old monkey's wind.
The white ape's heart was filled with excitement. The big insect that had become a spirit might not be able to climb the tree. What's more, there was the evil wind, which made it unable to open its eyes.
The white ape had the intention of retreating, and looked up, only to see the white smoke rising from the top, which was as dazzling as the moon in the dark night. The white ape gritted his teeth and jumped out again.
This time, he did not dare to jump randomly among the branches. He chose the route carefully and moved forward slowly. The wind blew stronger and stronger, and the roar of the big insect frequently sounded in his ears. Suddenly, the white ape saw a tree in the forest. The bushes were shaking, as if something was sneaking over.
White Ape was horrified, and rushed forward, jumping and jumping, and finally managed to get some distance away, but a look of terror suddenly appeared in his eyes.
It turned out that the forest had reached the end unknowingly. A stone step suddenly appeared in front of me. It was extremely steep and extended upwards. It soon pointed to an overhanging wall. Turning to the side, it spiraled up around the peak pillar. , with a dangerous wall on one side and a cliff on the other, it looks extremely dangerous from the front.
There was a rustle in the forest behind him, and the thing seemed to be rushing towards him from the bushes. The white ape swallowed his saliva, jumped out with determination, and landed on the steps. A loud tiger roar suddenly sounded behind him.
The white ape didn't dare to look back. He used his hands and feet to climb up the steps as if running for his life. Without any distractions, he quickly climbed higher and higher, and the movement behind him gradually became quieter.
White Ape was about to look back, but then he woke up and realized that he was already climbing on the unprotected stone steps on the overhanging wall. His pace suddenly slowed down a lot. When he looked back cautiously, he was suddenly filled with ghosts.
….
What he saw chasing after him was not the ferocious insect, but the gradually decreasing stone steps. In an instant, he had reached his feet. The white ape exclaimed, and immediately ran up the stairs desperately. One wrong step and he almost fell. The cliff, but fortunately I still stood firm.
At the critical moment, the white ape's wisdom, which was slightly better than that of the wild beasts, allowed him to stabilize his mind. He was eager and careful about his steps, and climbed up steadily and quickly.
The night is getting darker, and everything is silent. Only the stars and the moon accompany the white ape, and the steps behind him seem to be decreasing.
It had been running around for almost a day and night. It was thirsty and tired, and its hands and feet were constantly shaking, but it did not dare to stop and climbed up the mountain numbly and steadily.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the horizon turned white. The white ape’s eyes suddenly lit up. The steps in front of it suddenly reached the end, and its feet suddenly became soft. Fortunately, its legs
He supported his body on the steps with his hands, and with the last bit of strength surged in his body, he climbed to the top.
But in the far east, a big sun was rising completely, and the sky was filled with purple energy. A Taoist who looked like a god was sitting cross-legged on the top of the stone, swallowing clouds and exhaling mist, and there was a fire-like thunder beside him. , thirty-two rainbow lights swirled and danced.
Perhaps due to the blessing in his heart, the white ape did not dare to move rashly and disturbed the immortal. He stood still, but his legs and feet felt weak for a while, so he knelt on the ground and did not dare to move for a long time.
After half an hour, the purple air in the sky disappeared, and the sun also climbed up to the sky. The immortal Taoist slowly put away his martial arts, and the thunder and fire beside him disappeared. The rainbow light had merged into one place and flew back to the aperture. Opening his eyes, he asked calmly: "What does the white ape want after going through all kinds of hardships to climb here?"
The white ape lay on the ground, stunned for a moment, but it didn't know what it was asking for. It was silent for a long time, then straightened up and scratched its head, but there was still confusion in its eyes.
"Although he is ignorant, he is not enlightened and does not understand what he wants." The Taoist came to the white ape at some point, seemed to smile, and patted its head gently with a big hand, three times in a row. He said calmly: "In that case, I will give you wisdom this time. Once you have thought clearly about what you want, come back to this peak."
But on the other side, Li Changfeng went up the river. At first, both sides of the river were still under the jurisdiction of Taisu. After entering the Central Plains, he suddenly felt that the world had changed. Not to mention the people on both sides, even the demon king who dominated the river and the self-proclaimed river god. The spirits and monsters respect all the laws and decrees of the Supreme Being.
After Li Changfeng landed ashore, in every country and city he visited, the first place he worshiped was Shangxuan Taoist Temple, followed by the small sect affiliated with Shangxuan Zhengzong, which dominated one side. Li Changfeng traveled to several places, and also experienced some casual cultivation. After many battles and calculations, they found a large fairy city and were able to board the teleportation array and go deep into the Central Plains.
The deeper he went, the more influence Shang Xuanzong had on the Central Plains was revealed from all aspects. Even after approaching the foot of the Tianzhu, Li Changfeng was shocked to realize that the country known as the Xuan Dynasty seemed to be called an "immortal dynasty". Not everyone is familiar with spiritual practice, but every household understands and respects it very well.
Ordinary people have lived a life under the blessings of Taoism, living and working in peace and contentment. Practitioners have normal interactions in the city, and even enjoy a respected status. The royal family of the Xuan Dynasty is simply a believer of Shangxuanzong. I heard that only Only princes who have worshiped and practiced in Shangxuan are qualified to be crown princes.
….
Li Changfeng took a cloud boat in the big city of Xuan Dynasty and headed for Tianzhu. After five or six days, he heard the boatman shouting and shouted: "Brother Li, we are about to arrive."
Li Changfeng responded and hurried to the deck. Looking from a distance, he was shocked.
Where Yunzhou landed, there was a towering city, but there is no need to talk about it. Where Li Changfeng looked, it was Tianzhu Mountain, known as the central pillar of the Divine Continent, where the main gate of Shangxuan Sect was located.
But I saw countless continuous mountains, gathered into eight roads, naturally located according to the Bagua directions, guarding the Tianzhu in the middle. Tianzhu Mountain is worthy of the name of the Central Pillar of the Divine Continent. It is probably more than a thousand miles away, and you can't even tell if you look at it. If you don't count it reaching the mountainside, it is high and submerged in the clouds. It is no longer as majestic as describing it, but it is like supporting the sky and the earth, and it will last forever.
"It's really... Optimus Prime at the convergence of hundreds of mountains, the root of the earth that will never be moved by aeons of calamity."
When the boatman heard Li Changfeng murmuring to himself, he felt proud and said with a proud smile: "Brother, the Immortal City will be here soon. Although it is not the time for the Shangxuan Immortal Sect to open its gate, you can take a closer look in the Immortal City. , not to mention being favored by the Immortal Family of Shangxuan Immortal Sect, and being accepted into the sect can also increase your knowledge..."
Li Changfeng smiled and shook his head, but said: "Thank you, boatman, but I'll be fine as long as I stay here."
At that moment, he jumped out of the cloud boat, raised a sword light, and headed straight for the Tianzhu.
The boatman was taken aback, and immediately shouted urgently: "Brother Li, don't break into the Tianzhu..."
Li Changfeng had already lost sight of his voice. He raised his sword and flew over the mountains, heading straight for the Tianzhu. He was thinking to himself: "Where can we go to find the real mountain gate of Shangxuanzong?"
But suddenly I heard a crane chirp, and a voice came from the air, shouting coldly: "Stop! Who are you? Why are you trespassing on the Tianzhu?"
Li Changfeng looked up and saw two people wearing
The disciples in the Taoist robe of Shangxuanzong were riding on the crane and looked down at him. Seeing that he still didn't answer, one of them looked impatient and held up a magic weapon imitating the thunder mirror of the gods in his hand.
Li Changfeng stopped hiding, raised his arms and said, "I am Li Changfeng, a disciple of Taisu. I am here to deliver a message on the orders of my master."
"A member of Taisu's sect?" The two Shangxuan disciples looked at each other, lowered their height, each bowed their hands, and asked: "My fellow Taoist is a disciple of Taisu's sect. Do you have proof? Whose order did you send this letter to?" ?」
Li Changfeng smiled slightly, revealed the Taisu Token from his palm, and handed it to the two of them for review. The two were comparing the details carefully when they heard Li Changfeng say: "Master Taisu Zhenzhuan, Master Daomiao, ordered me to deliver a letter to your ancestral Zhenzhuan. Senior Zhong Shenxiu.”
"Master Daomiao?" One of the two people was thinking to himself when he heard the message sent to Zhong Shenxiu. He was suddenly startled and shouted: "Master Xu Zhuang... Master Xu Zhuang!"
"What!" The disciple holding Li Changfeng's token screamed in shock, "He's really here!"
Li Changfeng raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously, "What do you mean, it's really here?"
But they saw the two men hurriedly returning the token to Li Changfeng, and one of them shouted: "Junior brother, take him to the door to rest for a while, and I will report immediately." Then a crane flew high into the sky. And go.
The remaining person had a smile on his face and said, "Brother Li Dao, please come with me."
….
Li Changfeng nodded silently, and the two of them flew towards the Tianzhu. When they arrived on the mountainside, they saw a mountain gate standing with a letter in three simple characters: Shang Xuanzong!
Li Changfeng just took a look, but he was immediately dazzled and almost staggered. Fortunately, Hui Yun held up a hand in his sleeve, which prevented Li Changfeng from showing his ugly face.
Lianyun whispered: "It was written by a powerful monk, so don't pay attention to read it."
Li Changfeng calmed down, which is not what he should have been. He stayed silently for a few breaths, and then he adjusted his breath and returned to normal. The disciple who was leading the way smiled slightly and asked, "Brother Taoist, why don't you leave?"
When the Shangxuan disciple saw that Li Changfeng seemed to be shaking his head, he was surprised and said quickly: "Brother Taoist, just come with me."
So he led Li Changfeng across the mountain gate, followed by a long mountain road, all shrouded in clouds and mist. However, the two of them had not walked for a long time, but the clouds and mist gradually dispersed. Li Changfeng's eyes suddenly widened, and he saw that in the clouds and sky, there were The suspended corridor built on pillars leads to countless suspended palaces, pavilions, pagodas and jade platforms in all directions.
Countless Shangxuan disciples were walking among them, and some were setting up cranes, transforming into escaping light and flying through the air.
The higher he looked, the more solemn and gorgeous these buildings became, and the precious light and glazed glazes became increasingly sparse. When he reached the farthest point, Li Changfeng saw that the distance between the two palaces was already ten miles apart, but the Tianzhu was still missing. Its top is still reaching higher into the heavy clouds.
Although Li Changfeng was not shocked, he was still secretly amazed by the scene at the mountain gate that was completely different from Taisu. Under the leadership of Shangxuan disciples, he came to a side hall to rest for a while.
The Taoist boy brought the spiritual tea to Li Changfeng. Before Li Changfeng tasted it, the Xuanzong disciple suddenly asked, "Fellow Taoist Li, there is something I don't know whether to ask or not."
Li Changfeng said doubtfully: "Fellow Taoist, please tell me."
Then the disciple of Xuanzong asked: "Is it true that my fellow Taoist came here to declare a war with Uncle Zhong on behalf of our respected master?"
Li Changfeng was taken aback and asked, "Why did fellow Taoist say this?"
The disciple of Shangxuanzong responded: "Now this matter has been spread throughout my Shangxuanmen..."
Li Changfeng was frowning, deep in thought, when suddenly there was a commotion outside. Someone seemed to be arguing a few words, and soon a large group of people came into the palace. The leader shouted: "Where is Taizong Li Changfeng?"
Li Changfeng frowned, stood up slowly and said, "I am Li Changfeng. Who am I, my friend?"
The man looked at Li Changfeng and raised his hand seriously: "Fellow Taoist Li, I heard that you are a disciple of Master Daomiao of Taisu Sect. I think you must be very good at cultivation. I would like to ask fellow Taoist for advice."
Li Changfeng said calmly: "Won't fellow Taoist inform you of your arrival first?"
The man hummed: "I am just an ordinary inner disciple of Shangxuan Sect. I admire Uncle Zhong.
After a long time, I heard that Master Daomiao of your sect was not as powerful as Uncle Zhong. Naturally, I didn't dare to disapprove, but I wanted to ask you for advice. I wonder if you have any ability to respect a master? "
Li Changfeng said: "I can't stand it when fellow Taoists ask me for advice. But after the fellow Taoists ask for advice, which fellow Taoist asks me for advice? What's the etiquette? I came to visit Shangxuan on the order of my master. To deliver a message instead of fighting, I’m afraid I will disappoint fellow Taoists.”
The man frowned and said in a deep voice: "Fellow Taoist, you can rest assured. If I am defeated, my fellow disciples will not bother you again. I can still make this small guarantee. "
Having said this, Li Changfeng knew that he could not avoid it, and he let out a sigh of relief and said: "Okay! Let's see what fellow Taoist can do."
Thanks to Lord Xuanyuan Wuji for the reward.
