At nightfall, the sound of a jade chime suddenly sounded. After three blasts, the banquet had begun.
The top of Tianxuan Peak forms a world of its own, with thousands of miles of mist and ripples forming. Blue lotus flowers appear out of thin air and then bloom into a lotus platform for you and the monks at the banquet to sit on. It is really full of fairyland.
Among the hundreds of grasses and flowers, only this lotus is loved by practitioners. Whether it is Taoism, Buddhism or even magic, it is regarded as an elegant thing.
If it is a lotus spiritual root, it is more precious than other spiritual roots.
After Tang Yuan blackmailed the pillar lotus spiritual root from Buddhism, he has been keeping it in Chiki Cave. Now it has finally matured.
These lotus terraces are transformed from its descendants!
The entire banquet was not strictly differentiated based on cultivation level or status. Except for the True Immortal Yuan Shen who naturally sat at the head, most of the other monks sat casually.
Zhang Bei and Li Yuan naturally sat together, both in the back half of the hall. Not to mention Zhang Bei, even a Yin Shen monk like Li Yuan was inconspicuous in this banquet.
On the left side of the two people, the Taoist serving tea was Yang Shen Xiuwei.
Zhang Bei looked at the many spiritual fruits placed on the stage and said with an expression of surprise: "Three Immortals Island actually treats guests with such spiritual fruits. Doesn't it mean that spiritual roots are difficult to grow in the sea of chaos and spiritual fruits are precious?"
It is precisely because Zhang Bei was born in Tushita Palace that he is more aware of the price of the spiritual fruits in his plate. These are treasures that can be used as medicine, and each one is worth at least several hundred talismans.
Li Yuan smiled and said: "It may be a problem for other sects, but Sanxian Island has extremely high attainments in the way of vegetation. Although some spiritual fruits are precious, they are not a big deal."
At this moment, a ray of clear light flew from outside the palace and turned into a lotus platform. Liuyun, the weapon spirit of the Demonic Demon Liuyunzhu, stood beside it and said loudly: "I respectfully invite you to the banquet."
As soon as he finished speaking, the time and space on the lotus platform was slightly distorted. Tang Yuan, wearing a Taoist robe and a star crown on his head, slowly walked out.
"Fellow Taoist Tang is overjoyed to be able to come to this banquet, so I would like to thank you first." Tang Yuan looked at the monks and said with a smile, "The main reason why this banquet is possible is because My best friend, Taoist Priest Mu Jin, saw me off."
After hearing this, all the cultivators turned their attention to the top seat. Among all the Yuanshen True Immortals, Taoist Mu Jin's Yang God cultivation was very eye-catching.
However... almost all the great monks know that he is the monk from Sanxian Island whose alchemy attainment is close to that of a great master, and they will not doubt whether Taoist Mujin is qualified to take the seat.
Those who can become masters of the alchemy talismans and the four arts of cultivation are even rarer than the true immortals of the Yuanshen. No matter in any sect, their status is comparable to that of the Yuanshen.
After hearing the farewell words, the cultivators had many thoughts in their hearts. Once this person leaves, will the alchemy business of Sanxian Island be affected?
However, without mentioning other people's thoughts, Old Taoist Mu Jin stood up, raised the wine in his glass, and said with a hearty smile: "Old Taoist, I was born in another world, and I have always longed for the prosperity of the earthly and immortal world. Now the immortals are having a banquet, and thousands of cultivators are here. It's really I responded ruthlessly to the expectations of the old master, and when I returned to our world the next day, I had another topic to talk about."
"The old Taoist uses this wine to thank the sect leader for hosting the banquet and to thank all fellow Taoists for satisfying the old Taoist's expectations!"
After a toast, Tang Yuan continued with a smile: "As for the second reason, you may have heard about it. The Kyushu Congress is about to be held, and this competition is different from the previous debates between various factions. It is about Taoism and Buddhism. The three demonic sects are each on their own side, fighting against each other."
"Therefore, this battle must be about the strong going up and the weak down. The people coming to this banquet are all members of our Taoist sect, almost bringing together the world's elites. Therefore, we plan to do a simple screening test at this banquet. From our The people within the Taoist sect are selected to participate in the revolution, so that they can be sure of victory when facing the two sects of demons and Buddhas."
After hearing this, there was a sudden noise in the hall. Of course, most of the noisy ones were casual cultivators. On the contrary, the direct disciples of the major sects looked calm. They obviously knew about this in advance.
"Kyushu ***, can we casual cultivators also participate? This is a great opportunity!"
"What you think is beautiful. Can you see Fan Xiang, Li You and others sitting in front of you? With these perverts here, how can there be such a thing?
What's wrong with us casual cultivators? "
"That's possible. Today is a time of great strife. There are also amazing and talented people among the casual cultivators, who are not inferior to them!"
"And regardless of whether we can win or not, this time has given us a chance. Shouldn't we be excited?"
After the noise below subsided slightly, Tang Yuan continued: "This time the Kyushu Palace has set up a ratio of the three realms of Jindan, Yin Shen, and Yang Shen. The quota for each realm is ten people. For this banquet, We decided to reserve the quota of five people first.”
"All Taoist disciples can come forward and try their luck!"
At this moment, the monks attending the banquet in the other seven peaks were beating their chests and lamenting that they had not strived for the three thousand places.
Especially for some Jindan cultivators, although the chance is slim, missing the opportunity to become famous in the world is still heartbreaking.
"This time in the Nine Provinces, all those who fight are fighting for our Taoist sect, and all immortals will have their own rewards." Fang Xisheng stood up and said loudly, and then waved his hand, and an immortal sword roared into the sky, After walking around the hall, it hovered on his palm again.
Just a chilling aura has swept through the entire hall. Even the spirits were stung by the sharpness, let alone the other monks.
Fang Xi said with a smile: "This sword is called Queyue. It is a sword in my sect's sword tomb. The nine-level treasure ban has been completed. It is only one step away from being promoted to a spiritual treasure. Among you, who can be better than Fan in the same situation?" Xiang, I will decide to give him this sword."
The Shangqing Sword Tomb is famous in the heavens. After all the Shangqing Sword Cultivators die, their natal flying swords will be thrown here. Nurtured by the endless golden energy, not only will the quality not drop, but there will even be a chance to break through the original shackles.
Hearing that Fang Xisheng actually took out a flying sword with perfect magic weapon as a lucky draw.
Not only the many monks below were excited, but even the True Immortal Yuanshen above them had strange expressions on their faces, obviously shocked by such a handwriting.
You know, most of the magic weapons in the hands of the true immortals are not as good as this sword!
Many monks in the audience couldn't help but focus on the strong man who was still feasting and drinking the immortal brew.
In the whole hall, Fan Xiang is also the one who attracts the most attention. He has a strong back and a strong beard. He is not at all like a leisurely swordsman like Fang Xisheng, but more like a hero walking in the world!
"You don't have to look at me. If you think you can defeat the sharp sword in Fan's hand, you can come forward and give it a try!" Fan Xiang raised the wine vat high, took a swig, and laughed smartly. "Queyue's sword is too elegant and does not suit Fan. But if you are incompetent, a certain family will have no choice but to keep it to itself!"
