After boarding the fairy boat, Li Chuan walked around. At first, he just looked at the carved walls and exquisite furniture and marveled at the beauty of the fairy boat. After walking around, he felt that this fairy boat could accommodate at least a hundred monks. Live in it.
He went to Wen Guying and asked, "Isn't it a bit wasteful for us to take such a big ship?"
Chang Xiao also wanted to stay in Sishen Palace for a while and then go back to Beijing directly. So now there are only three people, two demons, and five living creatures on the boat.
"You think I do?" Wen Guying glanced at him and said, "The old palace master forced it on me. He said that it would be fine in normal times. This is a formal visit and must be more solemn."
"Actually, there is a faster way to go to Tianyu Gate. Just push the door open, step through, and you're there." Wen Guying said.
"One step?" Li Chuan was surprised.
Wen Guying nodded and said, "Yes, it's just that it seems easy, but in fact it costs a lot of money."
Wen Guying explained to Li Chuan: "When we go this time, Tianyumen will also officially receive us. An ordinary fairy boat is indeed not suitable."
Li Chuan understood. He said: "I thought I was just going over there to have a laugh and chat with Lao."
"Actually, when you come back to Sishen Palace, I should treat you well and introduce you to the heads of each hall. I just know that you have something on your mind... Anyway, we have a long time to come." Wen Guying led them into a teahouse to sit down. Next, "The half-demon woman is also being imprisoned in Tianyumen. I heard that she is the same, but she won't say anything no matter what."
Li Chuan was a little curious after hearing this, and asked: "Why are they all locked up in Tianyu Gate?"
"There is a ghost sound cave in Tianyu Gate, which is specially used to imprison monks and monsters." Wen Guying explained the reason to Li Chuan and said, "It is a natural land of extraordinary spirits, and it is equipped with very complex formations and Seal. Neither the Four Gods Palace nor the Xuanyue Gate has such a place."
"That's it." Li Chuan said.
"Isn't the Four Gods Palace the head of Xuanmen?" Gong Er asked.
Wen Guying was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "It's not necessary to strive for first place in everything."
"Didn't Brother Li ask me about the palaces in the Four Gods Palace last time? I happen to have time today, so I can tell you clearly." Wen Guying talked about the history of going to the Four Gods Palace. "The Four Gods Palace was established before the Great Tribulation of Gods and Demons. It was just a small sect at that time. There were four monks at the beginning, two human cultivators and two demon cultivators."
"Two demon cultivators?" Gong Er's voice sounded again.
"Yes, two demon cultivators. One of them died in the great catastrophe of gods and demons, and the rest is Jiuli Hall." Wen Guying recalled, "The original four palaces were, Xiaojing Lake, Yunzhong Courtyard, Jiuli Hall, and Qujiang Pavilion."
"After surviving the catastrophe of gods and demons, although there were only three palaces left, people continued to become enlightened, and within a thousand years, some people ascended to the immortal world. The current status of the Four Gods Palace was established at that time . At that time, the ascended monks would help the monks in the lower world. Until the calamity aura completely dissipated, the help gradually became less and less. So..." Wen Guying sighed softly, looked at Li Chuan, and said, "Now the immortal has already There are very few people who go down to the lower world, so Junior Brother Guan, forcing an immortal to go down to the lower world is indeed an unforgivable sin."
Before Li Chuan could respond, Wen Guying continued: "After that, many monks joined the Four Gods Palace. At its most prosperous, there were seven or eight palaces. I can't even remember the specific names. But later on , after everything stabilized, many people left again.”
"Later, the Four Gods Palace found the inheritance left by the six major sects and completed it. After that, it slowly became the leader of Xuanmen."
"Senior Brother Wen, which palace are you from?" Gong Er asked.
"I am from Xiaojing Lake, so is the old palace master, and so is Junior Brother Guan." Wen Guying answered, then he was silent for a moment, and then said: "As for Xiaojing Lake, about six thousand years ago, two qualified people appeared The consequences of the unparalleled monks are that it is as if all their luck has been sucked away by these two monks. The other monks have either exhausted their lifespan or died young. One of these two monks has already ascended. The other one is the old palace master.”
Wen Guying said: "Although my cultivation is that of Bishop Lao Gong, in terms of seniority, I should call him master. Because my master, master's master...all have expired."
After hearing Wen Guying's words, everyone fell silent.
Until Luo Xueli dryly comforted Wen Guying and said, "Is the old palace master about to ascend? In more than six thousand years, two ascended monks have emerged from the same palace. It is very rare."
Wen Guying smiled, paused for a while and said: "The only one left in Jiuli Hall is the Master of Cangming Hall. So the current Four Gods Palace actually only has one palace, Yunzhongyuan. Therefore, within us, except for a few Except for some things, they are basically indistinguishable, the Four Gods Palace is the Yunzhong Courtyard."
"But in the Four Gods Palace, the inner gate plus the outer gate, there are at least more than 10,000 monks, right? Are they all from Yunzhongyuan?" Gong Er asked.
"Yes, and there should be more than 10,000. Many of them are outside. You haven't seen them." Wen Guying continued: "The former headmaster of Yunzhongyuan, who is also the current master of Sishen Palace, went out to travel. I haven't seen him in eight hundred years. Before he went out, he handed over all the affairs to the old palace master, so... he waited until my cultivation level stabilized before the old palace master dared to retreat. "
Luo Xueli said: "The old palace master has been in seclusion for more than ten years, right?"
"Yes." Wen Guying said.
"Senior Brother Wen," Gong Er suggested sincerely, "you should accept disciples earlier and recruit more."
Wen Guying's face was a little depressed, but when he heard what Gong Er said, he laughed and said, "Good advice, I will take it to heart."
Soon, they arrived at Tianyu Gate.
As expected, Tianyu Sect welcomed them with a very formal ceremony. All the important monks in the sect came out as long as they were in Tianyu Sect. Headmaster Wang pulled him and introduced them one by one.
After struggling for a long time, Master Wang took them to his cave. Headmaster Wang asked Li Chuan: "How is it? How does the scenery of Tianyu Gate compare with the Four Gods Palace?"
"Each has its own merits," Li Chuan said while trying his best to hold the water: "The Four Gods Palace is more graceful, while the Tianyu Gate is very imposing and grand."
"Well said," Headmaster Wang praised, and then said, "I heard that you are going to the Shenxia Temple in the future?"
Li Chuan said: "Yes, I think Mighty Heroes may be related to the White Walkers. But we won't know until we go there."
"Yes." Headmaster Wang nodded.
After talking for a while, Headmaster Wang said: "Tomorrow I will personally take you to see Lao Xiaokai and the half-demon woman. The Ghost Sound Cave is dangerous, and even if I lead the way, there may be danger, so I have to make some preparations. "
