Since reaching the third level, Chu Chen has not only stabilized his cultivation and refined and nourished the magical sword in his hand, but he has also naturally not forgotten to refine the [Dutian Master Seal].
After a month, he had successfully comprehended the "Seal-Making Technique of Master Dutian", and he also carved and preserved the dowry "Taishi Xuanhuang Stone" that Qingying brought from the Dragon Palace treasure house. It can be said that everything is ready and all he needs is the east wind.
As long as he heard the report to heaven and reported it to Dongyue Divine Mansion, he could start refining the magic weapon [Dutian Master Seal].
With his status and strength in the Immortal Court, it would not be difficult for him to fly a seal to report to the heaven and the underworld.
However, he is a man of few words at the moment. After "opening the seal", when he invites the Heavenly Ding Lishi, the Five Thunder Messengers, the Wind Boy Rain Master, the Six Ding Liujia, the Flying Talisman Seal Generals and other "saints to enter the seal", the size of the "saints" will be huge. It's not enough, the "divine power" that comes down is not enough.
By then, the [Master Seal of Dutian Master] will be an ordinary magic weapon. If he wants to be promoted to the second level [Transformation Magic Weapon], he will have to spend a lot of time to warm it up and refine it.
With the basic quality of [Taishi Xuanhuang Stone], as long as enough "divine power" is exerted, it is completely possible to be born as a second-level "transformation magic weapon" like the [Golden Lotus Crown].
However, if you want the "divine power" of the mysterious avenue to be more powerful, the "official" has to come forward.
The best choice is undoubtedly that the "Immortal Court" will come forward to hold the seal opening ceremony for him.
However, this approach is just a thought and is simply impossible to achieve.
He has entanglements with the Tianxin North and South factions over the "Tianxin Orthodoxy". As an Immortal Court, it is important to be impartial. If they help him hold the "Seal Opening Ceremony", wouldn't it chill the Tianxin North and South factions and damage the unity of the Immortal Court? .
No matter how stupid Xianting is, she will not help him. This involves a matter of principle.
Chu Chen compared his feelings with his own, and he did not ask Mr. Mingjing or Master Yulou for advice on this matter, so as not to embarrass the two of them.
Apart from Xianting, the other person who can help him is Dongyue Mansion.
Although there is no direct subordinate relationship between the Dongyue Mansion in Dachang World and the Dongyue Divine Mansion in the Heavenly Court, they are in the same line and have a close relationship.
If Qingzhou Dongyue Mansion comes forward to help him hold the "Seal Opening Ceremony", it is also expected to use powerful divine power to refine the "transformation magic weapon" in one fell swoop.
On the other side, Taoist Changfeng had a doubtful look on his face. He looked Chu Chen up and down, his heart filled with suspicion.
At the beginning, Chu Chen had a dispute with Dongyue Mansion. He was the governor of the Qingzhou Ghost and God Department at the time. At the request of Master Huolong, the alchemy master, he personally handled the matter and witnessed the whole process.
Although the final result was satisfactory, during the process, Dongyue Mansion and Empress Yuxia still behaved in a domineering manner by using power to suppress others.
At that time, Chu Chen must have been angry.
Now, he actually wants to seek help from Dongyue Mansion. What's even more outrageous is that Chu Chen's identity is the son-in-law of Diyuan Dragon Palace.
Everyone in the Qingzhou cultivation world knows that Dongyue Mansion Lord and Diyuan Long Lord are very difficult to deal with, and the two sides are like fire and water.
This move is intriguing no matter how you look at it.
You kid, are you really not here to find trouble?
Taoist Changfeng was worried and immediately caught up with Chu Chen and rushed to Dongyue Mansion with him.
"Ling Xiao, do you really ask Dongyue Mansion for help?"
Chu Chen nodded: "It's absolutely true."
While they were talking, the two of them soared into the sky and landed on the ground.
Changfeng Taoist wears the [Xianting Elder Order] on his waist. Before they arrived, Dongyue Mansion learned of the whereabouts of the two of them, and a large number of Yin soldiers and Yin generals lined up to welcome them. The formation was extremely grand.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, Elder Changfeng. Why do you have time to come to my Dongyue Mansion today? There are only a few visitors, and the humble house is full of flowers."
"Empress Yuxia is too polite."
Empress Yuxia is dressed in a red dress, dignified and generous, graceful and luxurious, just like the image of a goddess revered and worshiped by the people in the mountains.
However, at this moment, she smiled brightly and greeted the guests with a smile. She was a little less aloof and aloof as a "goddess" and a little more humane and worldly.
This is not because Empress Yuxia is worldly, but because the position of the first deputy mountain chief of the Imperial Taoist Academy is special. Those who can sit in this position are those who are expected to further their Taoist practice and rank as immortal officials, and become among the important ministers of the auxiliary country.
Even though he was a member of the Dongyue Mansion, he did not dare to neglect her easily. Empress Yuxia personally welcomed her from a distance.
"Where is it? Elder Changfeng and this senior came from afar."
Empress Yuxia greeted her from afar, but she didn't "get a glimpse" of who the upper-third-grade great magical powerhouse who was traveling with Taoist Changfeng was, so she took it for granted and honored him as "senior".
After all, etiquette cannot be lost.
Even if you don't know a third-level monk with great supernatural powers, you should always address him as "senior", which is always correct.
However, as soon as the word "senior" came out of her mouth, she was stunned.
Chu. Chu Chen!
A few days ago, Chu Chen broke through to the third level and caused a catastrophe, which not only shocked all parties in Qingzhou, but also caused a sensation in the entire world of immortal cultivation.
She naturally knew that for this reason, she stayed awake for several nights, just thinking about what would happen if she saw Chu Chen in the future.
"Empress Yuxia, there is no need to be polite."
Chu Chen saw Empress Yuxia's face full of shock, embarrassment, and dumbfounded look. Even though he was a member of the Taoist sect, he was indifferent to fame and wealth, and did not take pleasure in things or sorrow in himself, so he secretly found this interesting.
Hedong in thirty years, Hexi in thirty years.
He didn't need thirty years, but just twenty years, he jumped from an insignificant monk in the world of cultivation to the pinnacle of the world of immortality, qualified to become an immortal, and became one of the top figures in the world. .
The span is as large as the changes that have occurred over the course of thousands of years.
Back then, if he had such Taoist cultivation and magical powers, would Empress Yuxia dare to order someone to capture his brother and make things difficult for him?
"Ahem~"
Changfeng Taoist noticed the embarrassment between the two of them, and immediately coughed, breaking the awkward atmosphere in time, and said:
"Empress Yuxia, I would like to invite fellow Taoist Ling Xiao to return to the imperial capital to study the Three Cave Scriptures. Passing by your mansion, fellow Taoist Ling Xiao wants to see you. I have something to ask for. I wonder when you will be free?"
Upon hearing this, Empress Yuxia felt as if she was waking up from a dream, and smiled:
"My father is waiting for the two former elders to come to the palace, please!"
Originally, she originally wanted to call her "Senior", but in the end it was a little awkward and she couldn't say it out loud, so she changed it to "Elder". After all, Chu Chen was also a candidate elder of the Immortal Central Presbyterian Academy, and was a high achiever in the Immortal Court, so he called him "Elder" "There's nothing wrong with that.
However, when she looked at Chu Chen, she forced out a flattering smile, which was in sharp contrast to the domineering, domineering and arrogant look at the beginning. She was completely different from the two people.
With curiosity, everyone soon entered the towering Dongyue City deep underground.
"Fellow Daoist Changfeng, Fellow Daoist Chu, please take a seat!"
In a courtyard of Dongyue Divine Mansion, groups of beautiful female Rakshasa ghosts arranged banquets in the courtyard. They had all kinds of delicacies from mountains and seas, spiritual fruits and fairy wine. It was extremely lively. In this gloomy Dongyue Hades Mansion, in a trance, , the artistic conception of a fairyland on earth is unforgettable.
The innate gods, the Dachang Dynasty decreed the title of King of Tai'an, and the famous Lord Dongyue Mansion personally came forward to entertain the two of them, treating them as "fellow Taoists of the same generation" and treating them with great courtesy. However, Empress Yuxia could only accompany them at the last table.
This is the treatment only available to those with great magical powers of the third level. They are both monks with great supernatural powers. There is a huge difference between those with great supernatural powers of the fourth level and those of the upper three levels.
Speaking of which, this was not the first time Chu Chen met Lord Dongyue Mansion.
Ten years ago, Mr. Ming Jing came to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen. He saw Lord Dongyue Mansion among the crowd.
At that time, the Lord of Dongyue Mansion, who was wearing a royal robe, had a solemn face, was majestic and domineering, and was aloof. He did not pay any attention to Chu Chen, a little-known "junior".
But now, Lord Dongyue Mansion was looking at Chu Chen with great interest, feeling quite emotional in his heart.
Less than one Jiazi reached the third level, and he could expect to become an immortal and achieve enlightenment. This made him envious and jealous of the old loach in Diyuan, and cursed him.
Damn it!
He was so lucky that he found such a quick son-in-law.
Of course, he had no idea about the son-in-law of his old enemy Di Yuanlongjun.
The grudges of their generation are the business of these old guys and have nothing to do with the younger generation. He did not receive special treatment because of his status as the "son-in-law of Diyuan Dragon Palace".
On the contrary, after learning that his daughter Yuxia and Chu Chen had formed a "liangzi" back then, he treated Chu Chen with a kind face and was even more enthusiastic than Taoist Changfeng. He just wanted to help his daughter Yuxia resolve this dispute. To avoid negative consequences in the future.
After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, and some pleasantries.
Lord Dongyue Mansion smiled brightly and said to Chu Chen:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, I heard from fellow Daoist Changfeng that if you have something to do with me, I am your elder. The grudge between me and your father-in-law is between us old guys. It has nothing to do with you and me. If you have anything to do, please feel free to ask. Say it, no need to be polite.”
Mr. Dongyue Mansion is in a good mood.
Although he is an innate god, Lord of the Dongyue Mansion in the Great Changing World, has vast supernatural powers, is immortal, and is not afraid of anyone, it does not mean that he is willing to offend a promising Taoist immortal seedling for no reason.
At this moment, Chu Chen took the initiative to come to the door and asked him to do something. It seemed to be an excellent opportunity for both parties to ease their relationship. Both parties had reached a stage of reconciliation. Therefore, he seemed quite enthusiastic and made up his mind.
Even if things are a bit tricky, he is willing to help solve them and create a good relationship.
On the other side, Taoist Changfeng and Empress Yuxia, who were drinking tea, heard this and looked sideways one after another, with curiosity in their hearts.
Did Chu Chen really come to Dongyue Mansion to ask for something?
What matter can't be solved by Diyuan Longjun and Longling Empress, so they need to ask Dongyue Mansion?
"Thank you, Mr. Fu."
Chu Chen was delighted when he heard this. He had been waiting for this sentence.
Seeing everyone's curiosity, a smile appeared on his face, and he immediately stated his request in full without any hesitation:
"To be honest with you, this is what happened. I am destined to inherit the lineage of Tianxin, and I want to make a [Master Seal of Dutian Master]. At present, the seal making method and the refining materials are all ready, and the only thing left is to open the seal." "Dharma Conference', so I thought of using the treasure land of Dongyue Mansion to help poor Taoists open seals and invite the saints in the seals to enter the seals."
Chu Chen was very organized and explained the cause and effect of the matter.
Among them, he did not conceal his grievances with the two factions of Tianxin North and South, and went through them one by one without explaining the details.
The main word is "sincerity".
After all, the person sitting in front of him is not an ordinary person, but the innate god Dongyue Mansion Lord. He has the power over the Dachang Celestial Dynasty Shinto system and is one of the leaders of Dachang Shinto. With his ability, some language tricks and a little cleverness , which is of no use, but makes people look down upon.
Therefore, Chu Chen spoke openly and openly about everything.
After hearing Chu Chen's words, everyone in the courtyard changed slightly.
Strictly speaking, Chu Chen's busy work is not a troublesome matter. As long as Dongyue Mansion agrees, the matter can be handled smoothly. As for the success of refining the magic weapon, it has nothing to do with Dongyue Mansion and is Chu Chen's own business. .
At first glance, Chu Chen's request seemed like a trivial matter. He asked Dongyue Divine Mansion to do a small favor and ease the relationship between the two parties, killing two birds with one stone.
However, if you think about it carefully, you can taste it.
Dongyue Mansion helped Chu Chen hold the Seal Opening Ceremony, which was to intervene in the "Tianxin Orthodoxy" dispute.
He and Chu Chen resolved their grudges, but they greatly offended the northern and southern factions of Tianxin.
Although Dongyue Mansion is not an Immortal Court, there is no need to be impartial in everything, but after all, they are hanging out in the Dachang World, and no one is willing to do this to offend two top Immortal Sects for no reason at once.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly became extremely strange, and the laughter and laughter disappeared without a trace, replaced by solemnity and contemplation.
Taoist Changfeng was not at peace at the moment.
He thought that Chu Chen was young and wanted to come to Dongyue Mansion to be proud of himself once he was proud of the spring breeze, so that he could avoid the shame of being angry back then.
Although this move was extremely inappropriate, Changfeng Taoist thought it was nothing. How can one be young and not frivolous.
Once you have accumulated a lot and let it out properly, if you can suffer a little more in the future, it will be a good thing for Chu Chen's future practice.
Therefore, although Taoist Changfeng was troubled by the difficult matter, he did not stop Chu Chen.
However, what he never expected was that Chu Chen would come up with such a trick.
Asking Dongyue Mansion to handle the matter this time will undoubtedly present two dilemmas.
There is no need to say yes, if you don’t agree, then the fun will be great.
Chu Chen took the initiative to pass the steps. If you don't go down, it won't be a matter of resolving past grudges, but it will offend people further.
If Chu Chen is like the fifth- and sixth-grade monks back then, he is just an ant in front of Dongyue Mansion and is not worth caring about. If Dongyue Mansion offends him, he will be offended and will not care about anything at all.
However, Chu Chen is now only forty years old and ranks among the third level. His path to immortality is bright and his momentum is at its peak. Who dares to underestimate him and who can ignore him.
There is no guarantee that Chu Chen will become enlightened one day.
I dare not say how high this probability is, but it is generally recognized in the cultivation world that a person who reaches the third level is the most promising person to achieve enlightenment and become an immortal.
When the time comes, Lord Dongyue Mansion, who is an innate god, is not afraid, but what about his children and descendants?
Chu Chen saw Lord Dongyue Mansion deep in thought and said with a smile:
"Master Fu, this junior arranged the ceremony on his own. Although the effect is a bit poor, it's not a big deal. If you feel embarrassed, forget it. I don't dare to embarrass Master Fu."
Chu Chen had a kind expression on his face, but there was a lot of sharpness in his words.
There is a profound meaning in this, and everyone present has a clear understanding of it.
Empress Yuxia looked annoyed and angry.
Although Chu Chen's words did not contain any provocative or threatening words, she could hear the meaning of "threat".
If you don't help Dongyue Mansion, forget it. From now on, we will have a bad relationship.
I don’t dare to embarrass you, Mr. Dongyue Mansion, but I’m sure your daughter and the others are capable of “embarrassing you”
Bastard boy, how dare you threaten Dongyue Divine Mansion, and even threaten me in front of my father, Lord Dongyue Mansion.
For a moment, Empress Yuxia became angry and wanted to stand up and scold Chu Chen for being "daring" and unreasonable.
Just when she had the idea, a powerful force held her down, sealing his consciousness and mouth.
Immediately, Empress Yuxia turned around and saw her father, the Lord of Dongyue Mansion, laughing loudly:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, it's a trivial matter. I'll leave it to my Dongyue Mansion. I guarantee it will be taken care of for you!"
Seeing this scene, Empress Yuxia was dumbfounded and looked astonished.
On the other side, Taoist Changfeng who accompanied him was no exception, and his heart surged with huge waves.
Back then, Empress Yuxia used her powerful position as King Tai'an in Dongyue Mansion to suppress others, leaving Chu Chen and his younger brother Chen Pengju speechless.
Dongyue Mansion was obviously asking for help, but what it asked for was domineering and arrogant. Chu Chen and his younger brother were obviously trying to be reasonable, but in the end they had to shed tears of gratitude for others' mercy;
But now, Chu Chen, with his soaring "aura of determination" that has broken through the third level, is overwhelming others with force, pressing on the behemoth Dongyue Mansion and the Lord of Dongyue Mansion.
This time, it was clearly Chu Chen who was begging for help, but his posture was like that of "Empress Yuxia", confident and using his power to overwhelm others.
An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
However, it is open and aboveboard.
The most important thing is that he actually succeeded in "overpowering others with his power".
"this"
Taoist Changfeng thought about this, and once again looked at Chu Chen, who had a kind and harmless look on his face and was chatting and laughing with Lord Dongyue Mansion, he felt a little surprised in his heart, as if he had met him for the first time.
