At the beginning of autumn under the orchid moon, Li Changfeng and Liyun finally crossed the Central Plains again and returned to Yunmeng Ze along the river.
The two of them were in a hurry to get back to life and did not dare to delay at all. They hurried along slowly and hurriedly, but it took half the time compared to when they left.
Returning to Yunmeng Ze, Liyun suddenly appeared, with a majestic horn and blue scales. He plunged into the water and was shaken for a while.
After a lot of tossing, he emerged from the water. The dragon's body was stretched out and he felt refreshed.
Then he was not stingy, he called Li Changfeng, carried him to perform Water Escape, carried the waves, and rushed back to Taisu Continent not long after.
One man and one dragon returned to Chongyun Peak. Before they could reach the top, they felt a roaring sound coming from the sky, and a terrifying and terrifying force filled the world, which was awe-inspiring.
The two couldn't help but look at each other, and hurriedly climbed to the top of the mountain, only to see a smoke-like mist rising into the sky from the Xuzhuang cave, and in mid-air, it turned into a burning red cloud. The clouds rubbed against each other, There was a roar and explosion, unabashedly brewing endless thunder and real fire.
The thunderclouds were rolling with fear and power, making people feel the power within them. It was simply unimaginable. It seemed that a random bolt of thunder and fire could destroy mountains and shatter mountains.
One person and one dragon were watching, but they saw a Taoist boy coming up to him. Without seeing Liyun, he bowed his head to Li Changfeng and said, "Senior brother, this is the master who is practicing Taoism. There is no need to panic." Again. He asked: "Senior brother, where did you come from? Do you want to pay a visit to the master? Have you submitted a greeting invitation?"
Before Li Changfeng responded, Liyun popped up from behind his shoulder and shouted, "Are you the new Taoist boy? You don't even recognize the disciple of Chongyun Peak!"
The Taoist boy was startled, and seemed to recognize him, and then he hurriedly called out: "It turns out to be Senior Brother Li, the boy is rude."
Li Changfeng nodded, but said: "It doesn't matter, can Master be in seclusion?"
Tong'er responded: "People often come to visit me recently. The master occasionally shows up and is not in seclusion."
So Tong'er led Li Changfeng to the mansion, and after entering the gate of the cave mansion, he saw two people already waiting in the hall. Li Changfeng asked in a low voice: "Who are these two?"
"These two are Senior Brother Tang Fanglai and Senior Sister Wen Pei." The Taoist boy responded: "They are inner disciples who have accepted the task of doing good deeds and practice the new Taoist techniques created by the master. They often come to the cave to report on their practice progress and ask for advice on problems."
"That's it." Li Changfeng responded. At this time, the two of them also looked over. Li Changfeng greeted them and chatted for a while.
Li Changfeng is now a disciple with quite a reputation among the inner sect, and he is also a disciple of Xu Zhuang. Both of them are quite respectful in their words and deeds, and do not dare to lose their etiquette, which makes Li Changfeng feel uncomfortable. Very tired, he soon stopped talking.
Everyone sat quietly for a moment, and the Taoist boy replenished the tea. Suddenly, a breeze blew from the depths of the cave. No one dangled their eyes. A handsome young Taoist with a sword tied his hair suddenly appeared in the front seat. Above, Shi Shiran sat down, picked up the tea and took a sip.
Everyone stood up and bowed down, saying respectfully: "Disciple Li Changfeng, pay your respects to the master."
"Disciple Tang Fang is here. Wen Pei has met Master Xu."
Xu Zhuang didn't see any movement, but there was an invisible force that lifted everyone up. His eyes swept across Li Changfeng's face, he nodded slightly and motioned for him to sit down first, and then asked about Tang Fanglai and Wen Pei's Taoist practice.
Tang Fanglai responded: "My disciple has practiced Taoism to the second level recently, and it is going smoothly, but there are some difficulties in driving..."
Wen Pei said: "This disciple still hasn't been able to practice Taoism to the second level. When shaping and imparting quality, he always feels that the magic power is stagnant in the third burner of Shaoyang in his hand..."
Xu Zhuang listened one by one, sometimes reminding the two of them with a sentence or two, and sometimes he needed to think for a moment.
Li Changfeng was listening on the sidelines, but a thought suddenly came to his mind: "How can the Taoist art created by Master... be so similar to the five-clawed flame dragon magical power?"
However, if you listen carefully, you will find that when the master preaches, he expresses more from the way of form and quality, and does not seem to be limited to the elements of fire, water, or even thunder...
After giving a lecture and clearing up doubts, more than half an hour passed before Tang Fanglai and Wen Peicai respectfully resigned. Xu Zhuang turned his attention to Li Changfeng and asked, "Changfeng, did the trip go well?"
Li Changfeng responded: "Replying to Master, my disciple's trip has gone smoothly. The letter and gift box have been sent to me."
Xu Zhuang hummed and said, "Do you have any response from Zhong Shenxiu?"
Li Changfeng said: "Senior Zhong has agreed to what Master said in his letter."
Xu Zhuang nodded and said no more, but with a flick of his finger, he flew a golden talisman into Li Changfeng's hand and said: "This trip has been hundreds of thousands of miles away, but you have worked hard. Go back and have a good rest."
"This talisman has my seal. Take it to the General Affairs Hall and you can exchange it for Immortal Zhizhi. In this way, you can also gather the great medicine of Liuhe. However, if you succeed in the golden elixir path, you will have no regrets. You need to cultivate yourself well. , don’t rush for success.”
Li Changfeng bowed respectfully and responded: "Thank you, Master, for your teaching."
"Go." Xu Zhuang flicked his sleeves and suddenly disappeared.
Seeing Xu Zhuang leaving the hall, Liyun suddenly jumped out from Li Changfeng's collar and shouted: "Changfeng boy, why didn't you ask me when I made an appointment with Zhong Shenxiu? And where did they fight?"
Li Changfeng said helplessly: "Uncle Liyun, since the master didn't say anything, it's because he doesn't want you and me to watch, so why bother?"
Liyun said anxiously: "Don't you want to see what it would be like for me to fight against someone like Zhong Shenxiu? Who is better?"
"I think Master's fight with someone like Senior Zhong is not only a competition, but also to prove himself, not to impress others."
"Why did Master call me to travel thousands of miles to deliver the message? It's because I don't want outsiders to know about it, let alone invite others to watch the battle." Li Changfeng said: "Perhaps no one is destined to know the outcome of this contest."
"What?" Liyun's expression changed slightly, and he said sarcastically: "But now Taisu, isn't it spread all over the Shangxuan Sect..."
"Really? I'm afraid it's more than that. Now the news of the battle between Master and Zhong Shenxiu has spread wildly across the land of Shenzhou." Li Changfeng said lightly.
"Ahem, cough, cough... You guys still have to go to the General Affairs Hall to redeem some fairy mushrooms. I won't go with you and go back to Tianchi to rest." Before he could finish his words, Liyun had already flicked his body and disappeared. .
Li Changfeng glanced back, bowed to the Taoist boy, and then turned around and left the cave.
When the Taoist boy saw that all the guests had left, he put away the tea sets, cakes and other items and closed the door of the cave.
After that day, Chongyun Peak returned to peace. Occasionally, people came to visit, but Xu Zhuang did not show up to see the guests.
It wasn't until the new year came and the greenery returned in spring that a rainbow light shot out from the top of Chongyun Peak, disappeared into the high and heavy clouds, and escaped to the east.
Here we go, Tianshui Gorge.
