Since no one from Yuhuai Mountain was invited, Ju Yuanzi and others had no intention of shamelessly getting together and just watched Dun Guang go away.
Above the white clouds, Ji Yuan stood with the old beggar with a red face. It happened that the old beggar should be familiar with Jiufeng Mountain than the people in Yuhuai Mountain. Ji Yuan also had some questions to ask him.
“Mr. Lu is familiar with Jiufeng Mountain, right?”
The old beggar looked at the majestic peaks around him and answered with a smile.
“It’s not that we’re familiar with each other, at most we know each other. Of course, we’re definitely more familiar with them than those guys in Yuhuai Mountain.”
“Oh.”
Ji Yuan nodded and glanced at the mountain road under the clouds and mist in the distance.
“How big is this Nine Peaks Cave? Can there be mortals breathing inside it?”
“I don’t know how big it is. As for mortals, there are of course mortals. There are not only mortals in Jiufeng Cave, but there are even mortal kingdoms. There are more than one. Of course, because it is an immortal cave, there are no evil monsters. , at most some of the spirits allowed by Jiufeng Mountain are just earthly spirits.”
Ji Yuan said a long “oh” again.
“In other words, the Nine Peaks Cave is quite harmonious?”
Although the word harmony is a bit unfamiliar, the literal meaning is still identifiable. When Ji Yuan said this, the old beggar sneered.
“Then sir, you are wrong. If there is no harmony, mortal countries will attack each other, and there will be feuds. In the early years, Jiufeng Mountain would still control and interfere to form a unified dynasty. What happened? ?”
When the old beggar asked this, Ji Yuan subconsciously said something.
“It fell apart?”
“Yes, the world was in chaos, the dynasty fell apart, and there were countless disasters before the split. In the end, a confrontation between several countries was formed, but it was better than before. Jiufeng Mountain tried several times, I realize that unless they keep it under control, history will end up in the same direction in the end, and it will also damage some immortals’ spiritual cultivation and vitality, so they just don’t care.”
Although he had guessed this possibility, what the old beggar said still made Ji Yuan think deeply.
“Mr. Ji, don’t think so much. Jiufeng Mountain has to worry about the affairs of Jiufeng Cave Sky. Let’s just watch the excitement.”
After the words fell, the old beggar cast a spell to activate the escape light. The white clouds under his feet almost turned into a white light. In an instant, he and Ji Yuan were taken away, and directly hit the Xuli Wheel Light Array in Jiufeng Mountain. Obviously, the so-called The excitement is outside the cave.
The light ahead changes, and the old beggar’s escape does not stop. Ji Yuan’s right hand in his sleeve has already clasped the token given by Jiufengshan, but the old beggar does not seem to have taken out any magic weapon or token. He drove directly into the clouds and crashed into the formation.
Same as when they came, the light was changing, the gray fog was gentle, and the virtual and the real were alternating. After a few breaths, the white clouds took Ji Yuan and the old beggar out of the Nine Peaks Cave, and flew up to the sky above the outside world against the wind.
Ji Yuan subconsciously looked back, and sure enough he could still see the nine huge peaks standing in the clouds, but now he understood that without the law, even if ordinary people could fly to such high altitudes, they would not be able to touch Jiufeng Mountain. It’s nothing more than a mirage-like sight.
“Sir, stand still, we’ll be here in two or three days!”
“Very far?”
Ji Yuan was stunned for a moment, two or three days? You old beggar, didn’t you make it clear before? How many days does it take to fly? How far is it?
“Where exactly is it? The Fairy Tour Conference is about to start in midsummer. We won’t be late, right?”
The old beggar shook his head.
“No, no, it’s not the end of April. Besides, Mr. Ji, you don’t go out much, so you don’t know how many strange things happen. Do you think the Fairy Tour hasn’t started yet?”
Hearing what the old beggar said, Ji Yuan reacted and nodded.
“The gathering of immortal cultivators is for people rather than meetings, for discussion of Tao rather than politics. It should indeed have already begun… In this case, you and I are rushing to the ‘meeting venue’ this time. Go?”
“Hahahahaha…wonderful, wonderful, Mr. Ji used the word ‘venue’ very well! Yes, you and I were just on our way to the ‘venue’, hahahaha…”
Maybe it was because he was in a good mood. At this moment, the old beggar’s hearty laughter could be heard far away. Many cultivators could hear it in the air around him. Even some of the deaf people on Ruan Shandu could vaguely hear it. They all said in their hearts: An expert is passing through.
……
In an uninhabited seaside mountain range, there is a steep flat-topped peak several hundred feet high. No matter how experienced the hiker is, he cannot climb it. Even if he is a strong martial artist, it will be very difficult for him to climb up. .
On such a flat-topped peak, two groups of people were sitting on the ground.
On one side are more than a dozen monks who are dressed in various colors and appear to be more casual. Just by looking at their appearance, you can see that there are old, young, male and female among them.
On the other side are monks uniformly wearing white shirts and white robes, and wearing gold-rimmed hollow star crowns. There are also more than a dozen monks, also male, female, old and young.
“We have agreed: first, we are not allowed to damage this peak; second, we are not allowed to curse; third, we will only be reasonable and try not to do anything.”
Among the casually dressed group of people, a monk opened his mouth to explain, and the people on both sides nodded in agreement.
“Of course it should be like this!” “Yes, we have agreed on three chapters in advance, and we will only discuss the Tao.”
“Yes, yes, being calm is the key to cultivating the state of mind for monks like us!”
The monks on both sides were either nodding or smiling, with easy-going expressions as fresh as the surrounding mountain breeze.
“So, let’s get started?”
“Well, as the saying goes, it’s better to choose a day than to hit it. It’s too long to wait until midsummer. Today is just the right day.”
“Yes, yes!”
The elders on both sides stroked their beards and agreed, and then respectfully invited each other.
“Fellow Taoist please invite me first?”
“Hey, fellow Taoist please come first!”
“Fellow Daoist, let’s go first. I, the Dafenggu monk, am more patient, so just listen first.”
“My fellow Taoist is wrong. I, the Qianyuan Sect, are the best at nourishing the Qi and nourishing the heart. In terms of patience, I am still stronger. My Taoist should go first!”
The elders on both sides were still stroking their beards, smiling calmly at each other, and were silent for a while.
“I…” “Then…”
The two spoke almost at the same time, but each was interrupted by the other’s words, so they reached out to each other again.
“Fellow Taoist, please!” “Fellow Taoist, please!”
“Hehehehe…” “Hahahaha…”
The monks of the Qianyuan Sect were no longer polite. They directly spread their hands and cast a spell to create a pattern of light and color. There were changes in the wind and residual clouds, the violence of thunder and rainstorms, the gentle breeze and the biting cold wind…
“In the last sixty years, Taoist friends in the Gale Valley all said that the wind is unpredictable. To control it, you need to imitate the weather in the four seasons, follow the changes of the heaven and the earth, use the strong to attack the heaven and the earth, and use the weak to caress all things. The other method of this method is the left Tao?”
The people from the Gale Valley over there nodded.
“Yes, that’s exactly the case. But you fellow Taoists of the Qianyuan Sect believe that the wind has no permanent force and the water has no permanent shape. It is the right principle to control the wind with the heart and mind and the law. Otherwise, it cannot be called controlling the wind at all?”
“Not bad!”
The monks on both sides smiled at each other.
“It’s a pity that our Qianyuan Sect has tried to prove it according to the wishes of fellow Taoists, but it is not as wonderful as our Qianyuan Sect’s imperial method!”
“Haha, what a coincidence. I, Da Feng Gu, have also followed the methods of fellow Taoists and verified it. It is completely nonsense!”
The elder from the Qianyuan Sect twitched his mouth and took a deep breath.
“Fellow Taoist, is the word ‘nonsense’ too strong?”
“Oh, that’s true. How about I put it another way, it’s useless?”
……
Although people who cultivate immortality are often quite free and easy, if there is a dispute about Taoism, especially if there is some friction between two Taoisms, the smallest things must be argued clearly, and even the contention is disputed. If there is no use arguing, you may still have to use the magic method to see the real chapter.
Before Ji Yuan and the old beggar approached the southeastern seaside, the old beggar’s flight had to slow down because there was already strong wind, lightning, and thunder.
“Woo…Woo…Woo…” “Boom…”
Lead clouds rolled in the sky, blocking the skylight, and thunder rolled in the endless dark clouds.
The raging wind kept changing directions. Ji Yuan even saw a piece of dead wood as thick as a thigh. It was swept high into the sky, swept far away, and then blown back again. It was much better than flying a kite. Still exciting.
“Rumble…”
A bolt of lightning fell, almost hitting Ji Yuan and the old beggar. The old beggar rode the clouds motionless, waving his hand and twisting all the thunder around him to other directions.
“Mr. Ji, it seems that the ‘discussion’ stage is almost over. Alas, it’s late. The most interesting thing is this ‘discussion’…”
Seeing the old beggar’s expression of fearing that the world would be in chaos, Ji Yuan couldn’t help but laugh and pointed to the sky.
“Beware of being struck by lightning!”
“Crack…Boom…” “Boom…”
“Rumble…”
Before he finished speaking, several thunderbolts struck the white clouds where the two of them were standing with great purpose, or in other words, struck at the old beggar.
“Huh!?”
The lightning was too fast, and it came too strangely. Without any warning, the old beggar was caught off guard and had no time to dodge, so he could only gather his strength and stretch his arms to the sky.
“Crack…” “Boom…” “Crash…”
Thunders poured down on the old beggar like a man of light. Ji Yuan’s heart skipped a beat and he quickly raised his sleeves, and all the lightning was sucked into his sleeves.
The old beggar was silent for a long time while riding on the clouds. He turned around and looked at Ji Yuan for a long time.
“Mr. Ji, do you have any objections to me, the old beggar?”
“Well, Ji said it was an accident, do you believe it?”
The old beggar looked at Ji Yuan seriously, and the latter spread his hands with a rare expression of embarrassment.
“It was really an accident. Ji had suffered some lightning injuries before, and later used it to practice lightning. Maybe there were any changes.”
The old beggar twitched his mouth, are you just trying to show off your fate?
