Although the secluded West Sea is called a "sea", it is actually a lake.
Because this lake is so big, like a vast ocean, with vast expanse of blue waves, it is the second largest lake in Yuezhou. Its water system extends in all directions, and it has beautiful aura and nurtures hundreds of lives. It is known as the "Blue and Quiet West Sea" by the world. Any famous mountain resort, great lake, Yangtze River and other beautiful places must have an owner, and a god is born.
This is true in the middle land of Kyushu, and even more so in the wilderness.
Moreover, the competition becomes more intense, and if one party is not strong, it will be impossible to defend the treasured land.
The name of the Lord of the Biyou West Sea is Biyou Fairy. He was born in the Dragon Clan. He has profound Taoist practices, fourth-grade Dzogchen Dao practices, and vast supernatural powers.
It is said that she has also practiced super-grade magic. Her magic power can break through the third-grade level and is unfathomable. She is the same level of powerhouse as Feilong Taoist and Xiaohu Emperor Xiaoyou.
In addition, Fairy Biyou has connected with the veins of Biyou West Sea Water and controls the huge power of the water veins. In the Biyou West Sea Divine Realm, even the third-grade Taoist practitioners with serious Taoist practices and cultivation skills cannot do anything to her, and their Taoist and magical powers are extraordinary.
According to rumors, this Biyou Fairy is kind-hearted. Since she conquered the Biyou West Sea and was enthroned as a god, she has never made trouble or acted arrogantly. Instead, she has ensured that the country has good weather and is loved by all ethnic groups in Yuezhou. The Queen of the West Sea There are many temples and Biyou Empress Temple, and the incense is flourishing.
Biyouxihai is a neutral force and behaves mildly, and the Celestial Court maintains a good relationship with it. Yuezhou Ghosts and Gods Department is in charge of the Zuoyuan.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, why did you ask about Biyou Xihai?"
Guangyuanzi asked Chu Chen to sit down and said with a teasing smile:
"Do you also want to participate in the Biyou Marriage Recruitment Conference?"
When Chu Chen heard this, he was stunned and confused. What kind of wedding ceremony?
Seeing Chu Chen's surprise, Guangyuanzi was a little curious:
"Fellow Taoist, you don't know, this news is quite sensational."
Chu Chen shook his head: "I have been saving the souls of the dead in the past few days and practicing in seclusion."
"I see."
Guangyuanzi suddenly realized it and explained with a smile:
"A few days ago, Biyou Palace announced to the world that Fairy Biyou was looking for a bride and had chosen a pair of Taoist couples, causing a sensation in the eight southwest states."
After saying that, Guangyuanzi shook his head repeatedly, as if he had missed something, with a look of regret on his face: "Unfortunately, the requirements for fairies are a bit high, and young talents from the dragon and tiger tribes are given priority. For our human race, we require at least four To reach the realm of great supernatural powers, one must not be more than two years old. I am too old to go."
Chu Chen felt very strange when he saw the white-haired, immortal-minded senior Guang Yuanzi with a regretful expression on his face, as if he had missed some great opportunity.
Good guy, it seems that if he doesn't meet the requirements, he really wants to go. However, after careful consideration, Chu Chen felt relieved.
Biyou Palace has high requirements and harsh conditions, that’s for sure.
Fairy Biyou is in the fourth level of Taoism, and her magic power is comparable to that of the third level. She is only one step away from reaching the third level of Taoism. Her Taoism is profound. In addition, she is the Lord of Biyou West Sea, has a rich family, and is a proud daughter of heaven. Being able to become a Taoist couple with Fairy Biyou, and become a aunt in Biyou Palace, I don't know how many years of hard work can be saved.
Guangyuanzi's heart was moved, and that was only human nature.
That is to say, Chu Chen has his own heart, and there is no wave in his heart.
After Guang Yuanzi sighed for a long time, he finally remembered the business and asked in surprise:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, you are really not asking Fairy Biyou to ask for a bride, then what are you asking?"
"Of course I'm not asking for a bride,"
Chu Chen shook his head, dumbfounded, and explained:
"My informant gave me a clue that the soul essence of Lanyang Mountain is suspected to have been sent to the Biyouxihai area." "That's it."
Guang Yuanzi has just been appointed as the first deputy director of the Yuezhou Ghosts and Gods Department. His colleagues are busy and have many things to do. He has not personally handled the Lanyang Mountain case, but has been following the progress of the case.
Hearing that there were clues so quickly, I was a little surprised at Chu Chen's methods.
However, there was not much joy on Guang Yuanzi's face, he frowned slightly and said
"Biyou Palace is a neutral force. Fairy Biyou has always been gentle. You can go investigate Biyou West Sea, but you have to grasp the scale.
Well, Fairy Biyou has very good connections in Yuezhou and is one of the leaders of the neutral forces in this state. Before there is conclusive evidence, you must not make the matter a big deal, let alone easily turn against Biyou Palace, and you must not arouse public opinion."
Guangyuanzi's expression was quite serious, which was completely different from his previous easy-going attitude. He repeatedly warned him, for fear that if he did not do well, he would create a diplomatic turmoil.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, just tell me a few words. Don't tell outsiders until you have evidence, so as not to let the news leak out and cause trouble."
"The poor man knows the pros and cons."
Chu Chen nodded repeatedly. The diplomatic strategy of Celestial Immortal Court was to fight against evil heretics and make friends with neutral forces to appease them.
There is no need to worry about evil spirits and heretics.
But when facing neutral forces, we must treat them with caution. One move can affect the whole body, and we cannot act recklessly.
"Hmm~"
Guang Yuanzi nodded repeatedly, perhaps thinking of something, his expression softened, and he joked:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, why don't you go to the marriage recruitment meeting and just go and investigate. It won't cause any further trouble. There will be an endless stream of attendees, it won't attract attention, and it's justifiable."
Chu Chen shook his head and explained: "I belong to someone in my heart and we are married together. How can I just casually attend some marriage recruitment meeting."
Guangyuanzi laughed: "What's the point? You went there and I didn't ask you to become an aunt right away. Master, if you are afraid that you will be chosen accidentally, you can hide your age and make yourself older. You have to be mediocre.”
As he said this, Guangyuanzi thought more and more that it was feasible, and said:
"If you are more than two years old, you will be faced with disasters, and you can't hide the secrets even if you want to. But if you want to grow old at a young age, it would be too easy. Fellow Daoist Chu, you still have some magical powers, right?"
"this…"
Chu Chen fell into deep thought
After some careful consideration, Chu Chen decisively gave up the idea of attending the marriage recruitment meeting.
He went to attend some ghost marriage-recruiting convention. He attended it in the morning, and in the afternoon a certain slave girl came over to kill him. Even if the explanation is clear, there will still be some "pointing".
Of course, "being pointed out" was a secondary reason. He was physically strong and could withstand the pointing out, so it was just an exercise.
The main reason is that he has to consider Qingying and take care of her feelings.
Diyuan Dragon Palace is a prestigious force in the world. A few years ago, he and Qingying basically made an "official announcement" and it spread in some top circles.
Now he would go to Biyou Palace to show up. If he met an acquaintance, it would have a huge impact.
Even if his identity is not revealed, he is too happy to participate in order to take care of Qingying's feelings.
After leaving the left courtyard of the Yuezhou Ghost and God Capital, Chu Chen went to a side courtyard of a yamen where guests were entertained, communicated with Lao Liu, and then took out the [Emperor's Order] to contact Han Chen.
It was not easy for him to attend the marriage recruitment meeting, but Han Chen could.
Regardless of his Taoist practice, age, or family background, Han Chen is the best choice and fully meets the requirements of Biyou Palace to recruit a aunt.
"Ling Xiao, what do you want from me? You're not really here to live, are you?"
Fragrant clouds curled up, and Han Chen's avatar appeared out of thin air, smiling and joking.
"You're very accurate."
Chu Chen smiled slightly and told everything about his friend Lao Liu who asked him for help, his involvement in the Lanyang Mountain Soul Essence Case, and his suspected discovery of the secret stronghold in the Qingyou Demon Realm.
"I'm just telling you, you have a lot of good fortune. If I follow you, I will be blessed."
Han Chen then laughed loudly and felt relaxed:
"Say what you say, I will obey your orders."
Chu Chen smiled slightly: "It's a good thing, Biyou Palace is recruiting me. Old Han, you go to the meeting and check for any traces of demons and find out the truth."
"Biyou Palace is suspected of harboring demons?"
Han Chen obviously knew about this and was not surprised at all. He was surprised that the case involved the neutral force Biyou Palace and frowned slightly.
Chu Chen shook his head and said truthfully:
"It's not considered harboring. It's just that there are suspected demonic activities in Biyou Palace. The details need to be investigated in depth, so it's hard to make a random judgment."
Han Chen also understood that the matter was difficult and nodded slightly:
"It's okay for me to go to Biyou Palace. I originally wanted to take the time to go there. Ahem~ I'm not going to find a bride. I'm going to attend the grand event to see if there are any traces of monsters. Ahem~"
After Lao Han explained the three hundred taels of silver here, he straightened his expression with a guilty conscience and said:
"Ling Xiao, the clues you gave are too few. If I go, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find anything. Your informant has clues. It's better for you to go there than anyone else."
When Chu Chen heard this, he felt that it was reasonable and couldn't help but frown slightly.
His clone [Five Color Dream Dragon] has the magical power to transform into a demon, and has a natural intuition for the "devil body" of an alien demon seizing his body, making it easier to detect clues.
At this thought, he shook his head and said:
"That's all, let me take a walk then."
Three days later.
As the Biyou Palace Recruitment Conference approaches, Yuezhou has become extremely lively. Dragon clan strongmen from rivers and lakes from all over the world, dragons from the Four Seas Dragon Palace, tiger clan strongmen from all over the place, and powerful people with great supernatural powers from all over the world are coming in droves to come to Biyou Palace. You Xihai rushed over.
It looks like a grand event.
In the eight states in the southwest where good and evil are fiercely fighting each other, fighting in secret, and fighting like fire, this scene is really novel.
Above the sea of clouds in the airspace of the secluded West Sea, there are powerful men under the command of Biyou Palace soaring in the clouds and riding the mist. They build a "fairy palace" in the sea of clouds to wait for guests from all over the world, assess and invite the world's leading talents to participate.
"咻咻咻"
Rays of escaping light cut across the sky, arriving at a vast expanse of blue waves and white vast expanse of blue and secluded Western Sea. The people who arrived were all extremely talented people with great magical powers from all races. They gathered together, and the scene was a lively one.
After passing the Biyou Palace's assessment of Taoist cultivation, age, and other screenings, guests can receive an "invitation" and then participate in the marriage recruitment meeting.
"call out!"
A ray of light emanates from the sky from far to near.
In the blink of an eye, a burly man appeared in front of the "Immortal Palace" in the sea of clouds.
The manager of Biyou Palace, Taoist Wengui, a man with great supernatural powers, greeted him with open hands:
"Welcome, fellow Taoist, are you here to attend the wedding ceremony? I wonder where your immortal residence is?"
The burly man said: "My name is Jin Wu. I am a loose cultivator in the wilderness and not worth mentioning."
Taoist Wengui held a magic weapon that looked like a precious mirror, looked at it, and smiled slightly:
"Fellow Daoist Jinwu is humble. He carries the blood of the ancient tiger clan. He is about four hundred years old and has a mid-level fourth-grade Taoist cultivation... Daoist friend is quite talented. This is an invitation."
While talking, Taoist Wen Gui handed over the invitation, not caring at all about the origin of the visitor. Their Biyou Palace family had a great career and did not care about their origin, but only wanted to have a fate with their own queen.
Seeing this, the burly man nodded slightly and took the invitation with a smile.
Immediately, two shrimp soldiers immediately guided him to his place of stay.
It was at this moment that a child's voice sounded out from the burly man's sea of consciousness.
"Hahaha~ Senior brother, it's so easy to pass the level. We spent a long time thinking about it." "That's right."
The burly man smiled and replied with emotion.
The visitors were none other than Chu Chen and Xiao Guizai.
With Chu Chen's identity, there was no way he could attend the Biyou Palace marriage recruitment meeting in person.
But, if it is inconvenient for Chu Chen from another tribe to attend the grand gathering, what does it have to do with Jin Wu from the Tiger tribe. At this moment, he did not use the "Art of Transformation" to become a "burly man", but used the "Tiger Letter Seal Fuhu Treasure" to use the "Tiger Transformation" magical power, first turning into a divine tiger, and then transforming the divine tiger into a human. In fact, the current Chu Chen can be regarded as a true strong man of the Tiger Clan.
At that time, he was a fifth-grade Taoist who used the [Dragon Seal] to use the magical power of [Transforming Dragon], and he was able to deceive Ao Dong, the thirteenth prince of the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea, which shows the mystery of the two seals of dragon and tiger.
At the moment, he condenses the energy of the dragon and tiger's origin into the "Dragon Text" and "Tiger Text", and then uses the magical power to transform a tiger into a dragon. Even a strong man of Dragon Lord's level can't tell the difference for a while.
For Chu Chen, the only difficult thing is the choice of "age". If he is too young, he is afraid that he will be chosen accidentally. If he is too old, he is afraid that he will be chosen accidentally.
Can't choose.
After some inquiring and weighing, he chose a four-hundred-year-old incarnation of ordinary ancient tiger clan blood. With this achievement, his talent is not particularly amazing, but it can be considered a good talent. Among peerless geniuses, he is average.
Not long after, the two shrimp soldiers took Chu Chen to the island in the lake where they were staying.
The island is not big, with sharp corners exposed on the lake. There are unique courtyards built on the island with lush vegetation. Each island is built one after another. The environment is quiet and quite livable.
There is not one similar island, but hundreds of islands of various sizes scattered nearby not far away.
On each island, there is a "quasi-aunt" who participates in the meeting.
The powerful ones with great supernatural powers condense their souls and have powerful spiritual consciousness. The distance between the various islands is not a distance at all, and they can all spy on each other.
That scene, just think about it and you will know how lively it was.
Every time a new person comes, countless spiritual consciousnesses come over, slap them in the face crazily, and constantly compare. Some people were full of confidence, while others were ashamed of themselves. A fierce confrontation unfolded invisibly.
It seems that the competition starts from this moment.
Whoever is weak will have low self-esteem.
When Chu Chen arrived, the situation was no exception.
At the first moment, countless spiritual consciousnesses came over, as if they wanted to see through him, and they spied on him crazily.
The scene was really lively.
Chu Chen was surprised and had a strange look on his face.
There was no other reason. In the spiritual consciousness that came over, he keenly discovered a few familiar auras. Third uncle, Qing Cong, the thirteenth prince of the East China Sea Dragon Palace, Ao Dong, Li Guang, and several powerful people with supernatural powers from the eight southwest states that he had interacted with.
"Good guy, why are you here..."
