Chapter 97 News about the Star Fruit
Guang Chengzi asked him a question, so he naturally did not dare to hesitate. Xuanbei thought for a while and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just a matter of finding a place to build a palace. No one will stop me.
However, because the Sanqing Mountains are close to the Sanqing Palace and the spiritual energy is thin, most people do not enter the mountains.
There are only the Kunlun disciples who practice in it, and some independent practitioners who really can't find a good cave."
After hearing this, Guangchengzi understood. Apart from him, the only disciples of Kunlun were the Shangqing immortals, so the owners of those palaces were all Shangqing immortals. This gave him some ideas.
Just looking at the Sanqing Palace in the sky, he thought about it and finally held back these methods for the time being. After all, these methods were too vicious to be used in front of the Sanqing Heavenly Venerable.
He thought that if anyone dared to offend him, he would be able to use it to protect himself with dignity.
However, Guangchengzi felt that this day was not far away and might come soon.
Just as Guangchengzi was thinking, two men and one woman suddenly came over. They were the Five Elements Immortal, the Peacock Fairy and the Sun and Moon Light.
These three people were also the first Taiyi Golden Immortals to surrender to Guangchengzi. Among them, the one with the deepest cultivation was not the oldest-looking Five Elements Immortal, but Riyuezi Mingdeng.
Don't be fooled by Ming Deng's smiling face all day long, as if he is totally out of tune. He can even laugh happily with those low-level monks.
But his cultivation was indeed not weak, and he had actually touched the threshold of the Daluo Golden Immortal, just like when Guangchengzi first met Xuantian.
Next came the Peacock Fairy. This fairy had a mysterious origin. She had come here from the Immortal Volcano in the south, nearly crossing half of the prehistoric world. This could be considered a huge spiritual practice, which naturally gave her countless insights.
Therefore, she was only one step behind Ming Deng. Although she did not touch the threshold of Daluo Jinxian, she could also dominate the Taiyi realm.
The Five Elements Immortal is even weaker, and it is unknown when he will be able to comprehend the mystery of Daluo.
Facing the three people who were the first to surrender to him, Guangchengzi did not hesitate to smile. After all, he spent a huge amount of money to buy horse bones, and he could not let others think that he was a mean and ungrateful person. This would be a huge blow to his reputation.
"So it's you three fellow Taoists, is there anything I can do for you?"
The three of them looked at each other, and finally bowed deeply to Guang Chengzi, saying in unison: "Brother Guang Chengzi, please save my life!"
Xuanbei was shocked when he saw this, and immediately stepped aside, not daring to speak.
Facing these people's requests for help, Guang Chengzi was not frightened, but was slightly surprised, and said: "Although the cultivation of the three of you cannot be said to be extraordinary, you are still capable of protecting yourself.
If you join hands, you can escape even from the hands of a Daluo Jinxian. Moreover, this is a place for preaching, and killing is prohibited here. Who can harm you?"
The Peacock Fairy lowered her head, but this cold-looking female cultivator actually said in a choked voice: "If we could run, the three of us would have run long ago, but we have been targeted for a long time, so we can't run away even if we want to. We can only linger here."
The Five Elements Immortal also sighed: "If I leave here, I'm afraid I'll die faster, but if I don't leave here, I'll be targeted.
So we can’t leave or stay. If it weren’t for the arrival of our senior brother, we really wouldn’t know what to do.”
Guangchengzi waved his sleeves, and the three men stood up involuntarily. Even Mingdeng could hardly resist, knowing that Guangchengzi's cultivation was indeed beyond their imagination.
"Okay, if you have any grievances, just say it out. With me here, even those Hunyuan gods cannot act recklessly." Guangchengzi said lightly.
This is not him bragging or relying on the support of Yuanshi Tianzun, but it is indeed true.
If it were just those Hunyuan gods from the first and second Hunyuan heavens, Guangchengzi would not be that afraid.
After all, if they angered him and forced him to lose all his merits, he could directly unleash the maximum power of the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler. It would not be a big deal to kill these Hunyuan Gods with one ruler.
After all, he has now understood the meaning of time and space, so he can naturally grasp the maximum power of the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler. He will no longer rush around like before. No matter how powerful it is, it cannot hit people, and can only be used to intimidate Daluo Jinxian.
With a sharp weapon in hand, he naturally had murderous intentions. When Guangchengzi talked about the God of Hunyuan, he was very calm and not as awed as before.
Of course, the God of Hunyuan he could deal with was at most the third level of Hunyuan.
If it was Yuanshi Tianzun, a god of the seventh or eighth level of Hunyuan, even if he also advanced to the Hunyuan level and activated the maximum power of the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, he would be easily killed by the other party.
The further you practice, the more ridiculous the idea of fighting above your level becomes. After all, those low-level realms may still require a chance or the achievement of devouring spiritual objects.
But they are all Primordial Gods, so who can be worse? The inferior ones cannot enter this realm, so naturally, it is impossible to talk about fighting across levels.
With Guang Chengzi's assurance, the three finally told the story. After hearing the reason why the three were so scared, Guang Chengzi's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "You actually got the trace of the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree! This is the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree second only to the ten great spiritual roots!
Even when the gourd vine was close to destruction, the Zhoutian Xingchen Fruit Tree had already replaced the former and became one of the ten great spiritual roots. How did you find it? !"
It is no wonder that Guangchengzi was so surprised. The origin of this Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree is not ordinary, and this fruit tree is also the treasure that all star gods and star gods dream of. Even if you offer the Three Treasures of Creation to exchange it, these star gods and star gods may not necessarily exchange it.
This is because the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree is related to a position of karma, and this position is called the Lord of Zhoutian Stars, a position that is born to rule the starry sky. It is supreme and noble, unparalleled, and beyond words.
Whoever gets the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree will become the rightful Lord of the Zhoutian Stars and the nominal master of all the star gods.
Even if a celestial being becomes the master of the stars in the sky, any star lord who sees him will have to bow his head and call him "Lord Star Lord". Anyone who dares to hurt the Star Lord will be immediately deprived of his status as a star lord.
Even Di Jun Tai Yi, the three Taiyin goddesses, the two emperors of Ziwei Taoist Temple, and the Mother of All Stars must do so, after all, they are also star gods.
It is for this reason that all the star gods are frantically pursuing the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree. After all, no one wants to have another master above their heads, and they want to be the master of all the stars.
"No wonder these three people were forced by the Shangqing Immortals to hand over the secret. Fortunately, they are in the place where the Tao is preached. Otherwise, the several supreme star gods of the Heavenly Court, Taiyin Star and Ziwei Taoist Temple would definitely hunt them down personally. At that time, they would have no way to go to heaven or to hell."
Guangchengzi had this thought in his mind. It was impossible to say that he had no thoughts about the Lord of the Zhoutian Stars, but he also had an idea in his mind.
If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. As the lord of the stars in the sky, you must be responsible for the movement of the stars in the sky. If you slack off for one day, the heaven will definitely punish you, just like the four gods of heaven and earth.
Therefore, even if Guangchengzi had the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree in his hands, he would not rashly choose to become the Lord of the Zhoutian Stars.
Only the God of Hunyuan can sit in this position. With his small body, if he sits down, he would become the lord of the stars in the celestial universe one moment, and countless star gods would surely join hands to resist him the next.
Even if he cannot be killed, just causing some big noise among the stars in the sky would be enough to make him anxious.
Then he would use some tricks to cause chaos in the stars in the sky, and then Heaven would punish him. No one else would have to do anything, he would be punished to death by Heaven.
So it would be more appropriate to let Yuanshi Tianzun take the position, but it's a pity that the Three Pure Ones don't have such an idea. After all, if they did, they would have met the three immortals long ago.
Ming Deng gritted his teeth and said, "The three of us once came together to preach the gospel, and later we often went out together to practice. Unexpectedly, we met a great immortal by chance, and that immortal gave us a willow branch.
At first we didn't know what the willow branch was used for, so we put it out of our minds. Until one day when we were traveling, we encountered danger and could not escape no matter what we did.
Just as we were waiting to die, the willow branch exerted its power and brought us to an unknown space.
The space was very small, but there were countless tiny passages connecting it to the outside world, including a place for preaching.
Knowing that it was the work of the immortal, we did not dare to stay. When we were about to go to preach, we accidentally saw a big tree with countless star-like fruits on it from a certain passage, and we even got one.
But that was all. After we came out, the willow branch automatically destroyed itself.
From then on, we all kept silent and only told others that we had ways to escape the disaster. We didn't know how to identify the star fruit, so I kept it for the time being.
Until one day, the Golden Hoop Immortal, one of the Seven Immortals of the Shangqing lineage, came to visit our sect and accidentally saw the star fruit. He blurted out that it was the Zhoutian Star Fruit. Only then did we know that the big tree was actually the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree.
Then the Golden Hoop Immortal asked us for the fruit. Although we were reluctant, we knew that the situation was stronger than us, so we had no choice but to give in and hand over the fruit, hoping to ward off disaster with our money."
At this time, the Peacock Fairy took over and said bitterly, "Unexpectedly, from that day on, there were rumors in the preaching place that we knew the news about the Zhoutian Star Fruit Tree and even knew where it was. So people came up to threaten and bribe us all day long, which was really annoying.
Recently, the Turtle Spirit Mother summoned us and asked us to tell her about the fruit tree. She also promised us that we could be admitted to the Green Travel Palace. This was really unbearable for us, but after we refused, the nightmare began. "
The Five Elements Old Immortal's calm face also revealed a bit of hatred: "Because I made mistakes in my early training, my magic power will be chaotic once every thousand years, so I need to use the Five Elements Spirit Stone to suppress the aura in my body.
Because the quantity is so huge, even my Five Elements Spirit Pool cannot satisfy it, so I need to go out and trade.
But those fellows who had exchanged elixirs with me in the past now backed away and refused to trade with me, which made me feel very strange.
After repeated inquiries, only a very good old friend said that it was the order of the Turtle Spirit Mother that they were not allowed to communicate with us.
That would have been fine, at worst we could have practiced hard behind closed doors, but when I went out to collect herbs later, I was ambushed and even blocked by a formation. It was obvious that someone had anticipated this.
If it weren't for the ancient talisman I obtained in my early years that could break through the formation, I'm afraid I would have been killed long ago!"
