The heavenly bell resounded throughout the sky, and the golden drum vibrated in all directions.
In the sky outside the Lingxiao Palace, giant gods stood on golden clouds and lined up in the sky. The giant gods either ring the heavenly bell or beat the golden drum, with a sound so loud that it can be heard in the Nine Netherworld.
Fang Jian and other eleven people who had just graduated from the Dongshen Hall stood respectfully on the side of the Lingxiao Hall, watching the teams of generals holding flags and weapons, and the teams slowly passed in front of them.
Those days will stop outside the Lingxiao Palace, and then stand tall, looking sharply ahead.
Then a burst of fragrant clouds floated from all directions, and countless fairies suddenly flew out from the fragrant clouds. They had colorful sleeves and colorful clothes, holding flower baskets in their hands, and continued to sprinkle colorful fairy flowers around the Lingxiao Palace.
When Master Ren Hua saw this scene, he couldn't help but whispered to Fang Jian: "Isn't this posture too big?"
Fang Jian asked softly: "Have you ever been to Lingxiao Palace?"
"No." Master Ren Hua glanced at the majestic Lingxiao Palace and said, "Having been an immortal official for hundreds of thousands of years, today is the first time I have come to the Lingxiao Palace to see the Great Heavenly Lord."
Having said this, Master Ren Hua said to Fang Jian: "How many times has this happened to you?"
Fang Jian thought for a while and said, "I forgot, maybe four or five times."
"Can you forget this?" There was a muttering next to Fang Jian. He turned around and looked at his colleagues who graduated from the Dongshen Hall with him.
"Have you not come to the Lingxiao Palace to pay homage to the Great Heavenly Lord?" Fang Jian asked everyone in surprise.
Several other people shook their heads, and one of the female immortals said with some envy: "Not everyone has the ability of Master Hongqing, and the last time the Great Heavenly Lord came out to eliminate the tribulation and summon the immortals, we happened to be in the cave god I missed out on studying in the hall.”
"I don't know what the Great Heavenly Lord looks like."
"Does that need to be said? It must be the most solemn appearance among the three realms!"
"There is no need for you to guess, you will find out later when you meet the Great Heavenly Lord."
Hearing the comments coming from around him, Fang Jian smiled. Even though they were all first-grade immortal officials in the Heavenly Court in the past and held great power, the qualifications for them to meet in the Lingxiao Palace were only for the super-grade immortal officials, or like the Great Heavenly Lord. This opportunity can only be obtained by issuing an imperial edict to an immortal official of rank 5 or above to appear before him when he leaves the customs.
Just when everyone was excited because they were about to meet the Great Heavenly Lord, a small figure came to stand in front of Fang Jian.
Fang Jian lowered his head and saw that it was the Qingyan boy next to Jiutian Xuannv, "Fellow Qingyan?"
The boy Qingyan raised his head and said to Fang Jian: "Master Dao has something to tell you."
Fang Jian immediately looked serious, cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Taoist, please speak."
Qingyan Tongzi said: "Master Dao asked me to tell you that today's meeting is different from the past. Don't speak easily. If someone asks you, try to deal with it."
Fang Jian couldn't help but look slightly surprised when he heard this and asked, "Why is this?"
Qingyan Tongzi shook his head and said: "I can't say. Anyway, just remember what Lord Dao said. I'll go back first."
Fang Jian was stunned for a moment, then he cupped his hands towards Qing Yantongzi and said, "Okay, thank you, fellow Taoist."
Qingyan boy hugged the fly whisk and left, and soon disappeared into the side hall on the right side of Lingxiao Palace.
Fang Jian looked at the direction in which Qingyan boy was leaving, his face full of doubts. Master Ren Hua on the side also asked: "What does it mean that Dao Lord's personal boy told you this?"...
"I don't know either." Fang Jian spread his hands.
The other nine immortal officials also looked at Fang Jian with bewildered expressions. Dao Lord only sent a message to Fang Jian, but not to them. Is there something hidden in today's audience that they don't know about?
However, they did not dare to question it openly, but silently remembered what Qingyan boy said to Fang Jian.
At this time, the heavenly bells and golden drums in the sky suddenly stopped, and only the fairy flower petals sprinkled by the fairies continued to fall.
But then, a burst of wonderful fairy music sounded from all directions. Fang Jian and others looked up and saw the golden clouds and purple mist in the sky. Among the vast white clouds, Fairy Chang'e was hugging or holding, standing or sitting, standing upright. Various musical instruments are used to play beautiful fairy music.
The moment the fairy music sounded, the overwhelming purple energy suddenly surged from the Eastern Sky, directly covering the thirty-third heaven, and finally stopped outside the Lingxiao Palace.
"Purple Qi is coming from the east!" Master Ren Hua looked at this scene and exclaimed: "Daluo Jinxian!"
"There's more than one." Fang Jian also said softly.
With such a vast purple energy, there is definitely not just one Da Luo Jinxian, but many Da Luo Jinxian.
At the same time, an old immortal with immortal demeanor walked out of the Lingxiao Palace, it was Taibai Jinxing. After Taibai Jinxing walked out of the Lingxiao Palace, he swung his fly whisk, raised his head and preached to Da Luo above the purple aura: "The Jade Emperor and the Great Heavenly Lord have decreed that all the saints of the Dao Sect enter the hall to pay homage."
Then, Fang Jian saw the purple energy disappear in an instant, revealing thirteen majestic and mysterious figures. After bowing to the Lingxiao Hall, the thirteen figures turned into thirteen rays of mysterious light. He flew into the Lingxiao Palace.
Seeing this scene, everyone was in a daze. They realized that such a big ceremony in front of them was probably not just for them.
Fang Jian's eyes narrowed slightly. He knew at a glance that the thirteen Daluo were Daluo from the Taoist sect. However, today was not the day when Taoism and Buddha paid homage to the Great Heavenly Lord. However, the thirteen Daluo from the Taoist sect gathered here. It was obvious that they were from the Taoist sect. Something very big is going to happen.
Not only Fang Jian, but also Ren Huazhen and others were keenly aware that something big was about to happen.
Soon after, just after the thirteen Taoists entered the Lingxiao Palace for a cup of tea, Taibai Jinxing walked out of the Lingxiao Palace again, and saw him preaching again: "The decree of the Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Lord, declares Ren Hua and Shi Ling , Shaoyuan, Lu Bisheng, Hai Yunwei, Qi Yan, Fu Zhenqing, Zhou Yaoling, Wan Xu, Dao Chen, Fang Jian and other immortals entered the palace to pay their respects."
Hearing this, Fang Jian and others suddenly looked solemn, quickly arranged their appearance and came forward to worship: "Follow the law."
Then the eleven people lined up into two teams, with Fang Jian at the end, and led by Taibai Jinxing into the Lingxiao Palace.
As soon as he entered the Lingxiao Palace, Fang Jian immediately felt a different atmosphere. It was serious but not dignified.
Except for Fang Jian, the ten people in front, including Master Ren Hua, were trembling all over, with their hands and feet shaking constantly, firstly because of excitement, and secondly because of nervousness.
But despite this, everyone still walked to the center of the hall under the guidance of Taibai Jinxing. Taibaijinxing rose from the clouds, flew to the Jade Emperor and worshiped: "Start the Great Tianzun, all the immortals who have completed the Dongshen Hall have been worshiped." I wish to come to the palace to see you.”…
As Taibai Jinxing's words fell, Fang Jian immediately bowed and said: "My minister, Fang Jian, pays homage to the Great Heavenly Lord and wishes the Great Heavenly Lord longevity and blessings."
After reacting, Master Ren Hua and others also hurriedly bowed down, but perhaps because they were too nervous, the salutes of several people were inconsistent and in uneven tones, which sounded as chaotic as the cries of a vegetable market.
The faces of the great gods around them all showed a slight smile. They were used to seeing this kind of scene.
The Jade Emperor did not blame everyone, but said to everyone: "Ping Shen."
"Thank you, Great Heavenly Lord." Everyone knew that they had made a fool of themselves just now, and their faces were all red for a moment. They did not dare to look at the Jade Emperor, Great Heavenly Lord, but stood there with their heads lowered.
At this time, the Jade Emperor said again: "You have graduated from the Dongshen Hall, which is enough to prove that you are the pillars of our heaven. In the future, you should abide by the laws of heaven, benefit all living beings, and do not let down the high expectations of the people."
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately bowed in unison and said, "I will remember the instructions of the Great Heavenly Lord."
The Jade Emperor nodded, and then said: "You will wait for His Highness first, and I will judge you and your officials after the court meeting."
This time everyone bowed and worshiped in unison: "I sincerely obey the decree of the Great Heavenly Lord."
Afterwards, the eleven people retreated to the lower left side of the Lingxiao Palace. They lowered their hands slightly, looked forward, and stood there waiting respectfully.
As Fang Jian and others retreated to the lower side of Lingxiao Palace to wait, the grand meeting in Lingxiao Palace began.
This time the great court meeting was different from the past. Fang Jian had a clear feeling that although the thirteen Taoists were here, the atmosphere was very harmonious, which had never happened before.
Although he didn't come to Lingxiao Palace for a long time, every time he came, as long as there were Taoist and Buddhist gods in Lingxiao Palace, the atmosphere would be solemn and even a little divided.
Just when Fang Jian was confused, an ethereal and mysterious voice sounded above the Qingyun above the Lingxiao Palace: "My lord, Zhongtian Brahma Qi Dou Mu Yuanjun has important matters to report to the Great Heavenly Lord."
The Jade Emperor looked down at Ling Xiao, his eyes fell on Doumu Yuanjun, and then he said: "Quickly play."
As a 'quasi-play' sounded, Doumu Yuanjun immediately stepped forward and said: "The Supreme Being clears the way and divides the chaos. The present world is at its peak, and the three realms are eternally clear. The way of heaven is merciful, and it has set up the heavenly court, and has snares in the ten directions, and the people are determined." The Taoist ancestors established the religion, enlightened all spirits, carried out the righteous laws of heaven, and followed all the wonderful methods. There were many differences at times, so we divided them into three groups. Now we judge the laws of the world, observe every detail, and lead all the truths to return them to heaven."
"This is the ardent wish of all the saint disciples of the Taoist sect. I hope that the Great Heavenly Lord will listen to you and hope that the Great Heavenly Lord will grant my approval." Yuanjun Doumu bowed his head again.
Doumu Yuanjun finished his report, but Fang Jian was confused. What does this mean? Fang Jian didn't understand. He looked towards Master Ren Hua again, but saw the shock and horror on Master Ren Hua's face.
He looked at the other immortal officials and found that just like Master Ren Hua, they all had a look of shock on their faces.
Fang Jian finally understood that his training in Confucian classics was insufficient, so he could not understand what Doumu Yuanjun was talking about.
So he reached out and pushed Master Ren Hua aside. Master Ren Hua came back from the shock and looked at Fang Jian with doubtful eyes.
Fang Jian moved his lips and asked using lip language: "What did Mr. Doumu Yuan say?"
Ren Hua's expression was slightly strange, but he quickly realized that Fang Jian's score in the Dongshentang assessment was at the bottom, which meant that he did not understand Doumu Yuanjun's memorial.
So Master Ren Hua also replied to Fang Jian with lip language: "Doumu Yuanjun reported to the Jade Emperor that the Taoist sect must abide by the laws of heaven and merge into the heaven!"
Fang Jian was shocked. He also showed the same expression as Master Ren Hua and the others. Is the Taoist sect going to be merged into the heaven?
This news is so terrifying. Once it spreads, a huge tsunami will be set off throughout the three realms.
