Chapter 3: Yun Miao
The sky is clear and the clouds are moving with the wind.
The vast fairyland is filled with endless misty sky. The white clouds are as worthless as dogs. Zhou Hao in the sky is in a sluggish state because he has never thought that he, a mortal, can actually do it. He really came to the immortal realm, and the white-bearded and white-haired old man next to him told him clearly: Now he has become an immortal!
"Immortal, you said that I am also an immortal now, is that true?" Zhou Hao's eyes almost popped out at this moment. He looked at the old man with a pious heart and asked.
"Your Majesty is supreme. Immortals don't tell lies!" Yun Fang waved his fly whisk and recited a Taoist slogan.
"That's great." After hearing this, it was as if he had taken a reassurance pill. Zhou Hao was so excited that he didn't even realize it. After his body returned to youth, his character seemed to have changed a lot. , he is no longer the serious and cold-hearted Emperor Sheng of Zhou Dynasty before.
"But Immortal, why do I feel that after becoming an Immortal, I don't have any other special abilities besides being strong and healthy? Even though I can travel in and out of Qingming and have boundless magical powers like you, old man, I should at least be immortal, right?" Zhou Hao asked again.
"Immortality? Who said becoming an immortal means immortality? I am almost becoming an immortal now and it is impossible to achieve immortality. I am afraid there is no hope of reaching that state!" Yun Fang said, stroking his white beard.
"What? What's the use of becoming an immortal? If you can't achieve immortality, what's the point of immortality?" Zhou Hao lost control of his emotions and almost yelled.
"Haha, young man, it seems that you did not come to the Immortal Realm through independent cultivation. I guess you must have accidentally broken into the Immortal Realm, right? Although there are not many such examples, there are some, but don't worry, we cloud Miaoxian Palace will not mind. Besides, the few people who came to the Immortal Realm unexpectedly like you have achieved very good results, and some have even obtained the status of Immortal King. It must be said that luck is also a kind of strength. , as long as you work hard, I guarantee that you will become a golden immortal master like those people just now within two thousand years." Yun Fang patted Zhou Hao on the shoulder and encouraged.
"Immortal, but you still haven't told me what is the difference between me now and when I was a mortal before." Zhou Hao calmed down and said.
"Well, in your mortal world, there is a boundary monument of the Immortal Realm as a coordinate. That boundary monument is located at the highest point of the universe. Only those who have truly cultivated and achieved greatness and can break the void can travel to the Immortal Realm world through the boundary monument. That is to say The mortal world and the Immortal Realm belong to two completely different planes and time, but they can be connected through the coordinates of this boundary monument. However, it should be noted that those who have the strength of Shattered Void and come to the Immortal Realm will get real gold in that monument. Immortal body, which means that as soon as you come to the Immortal Realm, you will be a master of the Golden Immortal level. And people like you who come to the Immortal Realm by accident can only obtain the most ordinary lower immortal body, just as you mortals say - the way of heaven Reward your hard work!" Yun Fang said.
"That's it, then how should I live in the fairyland in the future?" Zhou Hao seemed to understand.
"Haha, you asked the key. This is why so many people were vying for you just now. Our Sixteenth Immortal Palace noticed you from the moment you crossed into the Immortal Realm Sky Monument, although you can't become a golden person immediately. Immortal, but the people who come from the lower realm to the upper realm of this fairy realm are definitely not ordinary. Moreover, in the past thousands of years, the number of disciples accepted by various fairy temples has become less and less, and the quality is also very unsatisfactory. Simply put, they are not up to standard. If you can Introducing new blood is naturally the target of all the major immortal temples. So today I used my magical power to rescue you from those old foxes. You can join the Yunmiao Immortal Palace in the future. It just so happened that I saw you and me If we are destined, I will make an exception and accept you as a closed disciple, what do you think?" Yun Fang said with a smile.
Zhou Hao murmured in his heart: You still have the nerve to call me an old fox. I think you are a real old fox. You can also use magical powers. Does running away count?
But the internal slander was the internal slander, and Zhou Hao's mind turned - Immortals can see through people's hearts! So he immediately put away his little thoughts, and then he immediately knelt down, obviously in the rhythm of becoming a disciple.
"Hey, stop, okay, okay, dear, dear, we are still on the back of the crane. It's not too late to wait until Yunmiao for the apprenticeship ceremony. It's not too late. Hahaha, my dear disciple, don't worry, I, Yunfang, will definitely take care of you. Take me into the Immortal Palace, and don't forget to be your teacher when you become an Immortal King in the future!" Yun Fang stroked his beard and laughed, obviously feeling a little carried away.
Zhou Hao scratched the back of his head and felt puzzled: As for that? Your old man is also a golden immortal-level figure after all. Why do you seem to be suffering from delusion now?
"My good disciple, do you want to know about the Immortal Realm? You see, we have been flying for so long, but we are still far away from Yunmiao. Do you know why?"
"I know, the fairyland is too big!"
"That's so smart, that's the wrong answer!"
"Huh? Then please ask the master to give you some advice."
"It's very simple, because this is what the master did deliberately. The purpose is to let you, my disciple, have a glimpse of the beautiful scenery of this fairyland. As the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books! This place still belongs to the area of Dengxiandai, and there are no major fairy palaces. You must be in charge, but you must not underestimate it. You must know that this is the place where mortals in the lower world ascend to immortality. The immortal realm will definitely arrange strong people to guard it, but they will not show up on weekdays. If a war really breaks out here, maybe some big shots will Will jump out." Yun Fang was riding the crane, and Zhou Hao was sitting behind him, looking left and right.
Looking back, Zhou Hao found a huge dragon-shaped outline appearing behind him. It was a coiled dragon. In fact, it was all made of clouds. After flying for so long, he could really see the outline clearly. It is conceivable that the dragon-shaped clouds were It's so huge, at least millions of miles across, because Jinxian's mount can reach hundreds of miles in an instant no matter how slow it is. Then Yun Fang told him that the dragon-shaped outline cloud layer was the Dengxian Platform. At this time, they basically flew out of the inner area of the Dengxian Platform.
"Oh my god? It's so big...hey, what is that?" Before Zhou Hao could marvel, the picture in front of him was shocking enough.
A waterfall with a width of a hundred miles hangs above the sky. The flowing water is pale golden and filled with fairy aura. But to be precise, this should be a river, a long river that runs through the sky. Going up the river, this river seems to Originating from the top of Jiutian, going down along the river, this river seems to lead directly to Jiuyou Huangquan.
"Is this the sky cracking?" Zhou Hao wondered. At this time, they were still some distance away from the long river that ran up and down the sky, but they could still clearly hear the sound of rushing water.
"Qin Shui!"
Yun Fang told Zhou Hao: "This is just a tributary of Qin Shui. Just like there are big rivers in the mortal world and big rivers have tributaries, the same is true in the Immortal Realm. But remember, Qin Shui is the most famous immortal in Daluo Immortal Realm. The ancestral water vein of the Qin family, one of the aristocratic families, flows from the Daluo Immortal Territory through several Immortal Territories. The total length is astronomical and cannot be calculated. It can be said to have a long history in the true sense. Although there are not many long rivers in the void like this, each one They all represent a top human-immortal family in the Immortal Realm. They must not be offended and no one dares to offend them. Do you understand?" When he said this, Yun Fang returned to his serious expression.
Looking at the long river in the sky that was hundreds of miles wide and running through the sky, Zhou Hao was inexplicably shocked. In the mortal world, he had seen rivers flowing upstream, but today he saw a river that could surge in the void. How is this not surprising.
The river was surging in a light golden color, and the dense white fairy mist rose, giving the whole river a hazy beauty. In addition, there were many stars dotted in the sky. The sky was not sunny but like a midsummer night on earth, with stars shining together.
"Human Immortal Family? Daluo Immortal Realm? What are those? Master, tell me about it quickly, my disciple will learn a lot!" After a while, Zhou Hao put his head on Yun Fang's shoulder and asked eagerly.
"Well, seeing that your thirst for knowledge is so fervent, my teacher will spend more time talking about it for you. Listen up." Yun Fang seemed to have a chat box that he couldn't close, and he was talking endlessly.
"Needless to say, this Immortal Realm is vast, but it is divided into nine parts. It is ruled by eight Immortal Lords. These nine Immortal Realms are Taikoo Immortal Realm, Hunyuan Immortal Realm, Daluo Immortal Realm, and Pudu Immortal Realm. Territory, Qingwei Immortal Territory, Xiaoyao Immortal Territory, Sun and Moon Immortal Territory, Netherworld Immortal Territory and Fallen Immortal Territory, and the place where you and I are now is the Sun and Moon Immortal Territory. Except for the Taikoo Immortal Territory, the other eight Immortal Territories have their own A heavenly capital manages the immortals in the immortal realm, and the peak of power in the heavenly capital is the immortal master. The so-called human immortal family is also the human immortal family. This is one of the two mainstream forces in the immortal realm, the other is the sacred Fairy races, such as the Dragon Tribe, Phoenix Tribe, Qilin Tribe, and the Peacock Tribe that you heard before, these sacred fairy races are all strong and strong, and they have always been aloof in the fairyland, sacred and inviolable!"
"So that's it. The Immortal Realm is so great and amazing, but what surprises me the most is that the human race can actually stand out alone and become a human-immortal family system and compete with gods like the True Dragon and Phoenix. It really feels incredible. Zhou Hao said with emotion.
"Disciple, you are wrong. There are strong and weak human races. The strong ones are like the Qin family, even real dragons are used as mounts. The weak ones are like mortals. After decades of time, they are just a handful of loess. And this is true not only of the human race, but also of all living beings in the world. They all have strengths and weaknesses. It's just that the strong live and the weak die! This is the reason why all living beings want to become immortals. The immortal way can lead to the universe and the ultimate truth, and can lead to the ultimate reincarnation of life and death. Maybe someone can really achieve the ultimate goal - immortality!" Yun Fang was in a trance at this time, as if he had thought of something.
The cranes soared in the sky and made a few crows from time to time. The old man and the young man on their backs just asked and answered each other and they were getting along quite well.
I have to say that there are really many scenic spots in this cloud sky. There is an evergreen mountain standing in the clouds. From a distance, I thought it was a green star, but the size of the two is indeed almost the same; there are ruins of the hanging garden, but it is White clouds covered most of it, and there were ivy twining around the garden pavilion, but not a single flower could be seen. Zhou Hao vaguely seemed to see a peerless fairy dancing in the garden; there was also a huge stone statue of the God of War standing among the white clouds. , the God of War has his hands crossed and the giant sword between his feet. He looks calm and self-confident, giving people a firm sense of responsibility; there are also groups of floating islands, with mountains and water on them, like spring all year round, just like a A paradise in the world, but the floating islands are connected by black chains. Each chain shines with black light like a black mountain ridge across the sky. Yun Fang told Zhou Hao that this may be a great formation of immortality. If he is not careful, he will When the formation pattern is triggered, a shocking killing force will surely erupt. The two of them bypassed the floating island group far away.
Two hours passed like this, and the crane finally took the two of them out of the peripheral area of the Immortal Platform. At this time, the scene they saw was completely different.
This place is basically outer space, but the Dengxian Terrace is surrounded by white clouds and illuminated by fairy lights, like a pure realm! The stars dotted the dark sky here, and the power of the lunar moon circulated inexplicably in every inch of space. At this time, Zhou Hao felt that riding a crane in this environment was really a disgrace.
Think about it, riding an elegant and noble red-crowned crane flying in outer space. (It’s really unimaginable!)
"Disciple, sit still, my master is going to speed up!" Yun Fang gently touched the crane's neck, and then heard a scream.
"Ah, help, it's too fast, help! Master, slow down, I'm dying! Slow down!"
"My dear disciple, you are also an immortal after all, and you are my elder Yun Fang's favorite disciple. How can you call for help at such a low speed?"
The crane turned into a golden light at this time, traveling as fast as lightning, even the stars were moving backwards quickly, and finally it stopped.
Directly in front of it is a very strange place. There is an oval-like stone gate there, which is a hundred meters high and thirty meters wide. There are two gatekeepers in front of the stone gate. They are wearing silver armor and have indifferent eyes. , each holding a square-shaped halberd standing crossed in their hands.
"Token!"
When Yun Fang and Zhou Hao came to the door, the two doormen spoke. Their voices were so cold that they were suffocating and devoid of any emotion. They seemed like robots speaking, but the two of them were indeed flesh and blood.
"These are the Death Guards. They only have bodies and no souls. They were strong men at the Immortal level when they were alive. They were the gatekeepers who sold us the Yunmiao Immortal Palace in the Netherworld Immortal Realm. They are the most loyal watchdogs!" Yun Fang said lightly.
However, in Zhou Hao's ears, it was like thunder exploding from the sky: Trading a powerful immortal? what does that mean? How can such a powerful being be used for business? are you crazy! Even my own master, the one in front of me, has not reached that level. Thinking about what I heard before, it seems that the master of the entire Yunmiao Immortal Palace is the only one who is a supreme immortal, right?
But now he is told that these two gatekeepers are both immortals, so why are they not allowed to practice well? You two guards are so capable, why don't you go to heaven? (Oh sorry, this is in heaven.)
Then Yun Fang took out a silver token from somewhere, with a golden auspicious cloud painted on the front. He shook his hand and showed the token, and the two death guards immediately focused on the token.
"It's a real token, let me go!"
With another cold and emotionless voice, the death guard separated from Fang Tian and drew his halberd. Zhou Hao and Yun Fang rode the crane directly into the oval stone door.
As soon as the light flashed, the two people and Yi He seemed to have traveled through time and space to another world. In front of them were green mountain peaks, with pavilions and pavilions scattered among them. The tallest mountain was actually filled with purple air, and one could smell it from a long distance away. The aura that makes one's mind clear is undoubtedly caused by the purple energy.
"Why is there another door? We just passed through a door!" Zhou Hao looked up and wanted to go crazy, because there were two gilt characters "Yunmiao" written on it. This was a portal. Although there was no door panel, it was There are door couplets.
"Among the green mountains, green waters, and white clouds, there are gods and goddesses coming from the east." Zhou Hao thought, and then rolled his eyes: "What kind of bad poem is this? What I wrote is better than it. Is this really a place where gods live?" "
"Disciple, we continue to move forward. We will definitely encounter disciples and elders of all levels in Yunmiao Immortal Palace. Don't be too afraid. Master will teach you how to greet them one by one. After all, this is your first time coming to Yunmiao. Please be polite. You still have to abide by it!" Yun Fang seemed very happy, seeing that he had his hands behind his back, the fly whisk had disappeared, and Zhou Hao nodded and followed closely.
Of course, the crane has already flown into the sky to find other friends. In his fairy palace, Yun Fang told Zhou Hao: No one is allowed to ride it, except under special circumstances.
Da da da!
Behind the door was a bluestone staircase. Yun Fang and Zhou Hao stepped up the steps. The stone steps snaked up the green mountain and passed many palaces and pavilions. There were some figures there, obviously Yun Miao's disciples.
In a pavilion, four boys and girls saw Yun Fang and Zhou Hao walking towards them.
"Look! Isn't that Elder Yun Fang? There is someone behind him. I guess that person must be Elder Yun Fang's new disciple." A petite and cute girl said first, of course her voice was very precise. Well, not a trace escaped the pavilion.
"Humph, what kind of elder, is Yun Fang worthy of him? After all these years, who would be willing to find him as a master? He is ruthless and ruthless. The old injury of the palace master has not healed yet. Even if his own apprentice is killed, he will not Come to rescue, what qualifications does he have to be someone else's master? Huh, I'm going to humiliate him today!" This was a tall and handsome man. He looked at Yun Fang who was smiling and talking to Zhou Hao. He smiled, but his face was filled with anger and disdain.
"That's right! Yun Fang, this harmful man, my eldest brother regarded him as his biological father, but in the end he was killed by this father. I hate it so much, I hate it so much!" Han, a tall woman wearing a red dress, said Her voice was full of hatred, and even her beautiful big eyes were bloodshot at this time.
