Chapter 140: The Immortals at Qiankuntai
Chapter 140: The Immortals at Qiankuntai
Li Yao ruthlessly drove him away. Zhong Tingyu was silent for a moment, then opened his eyes half-believing and half-doubting. He became even more silent when he saw the unfamiliar scene.
"We're finally here." He stood up reluctantly, fascinated by the quality of the spiritual energy in the flying boat which far exceeded that of the outside world.
As a result, he found the sight of everything golden and beautiful much more pleasing to the eye. As long as it could help him improve his cultivation, even if it was an ugly golden flying boat, Zhong Tingyu would still hold his nose and praise it as beautiful.
"Thank you very much for your generosity," Zhu Fu calmly got off the flying boat first, not forgetting to give an extra bow to Li Yao, and said in a warm voice, "Thank you."
Zhong Tingyu also waved his hand and said, "Thank you very much." He no longer worried about how fast the Mahayana cultivation was, and jumped off the flying boat without any reluctance.
What came into view was the white jade platform for viewing immortals that they talked about.
There were shadowy figures on the jade platform, and from time to time a few unclear shadows passed by, but no one could see their true appearance. The sacred and unapproachable aura made everyone praise it. Even if they were far away, they felt as if they were immersed in the immortal air and felt comfortable all over.
The stage was shrouded in white mist, and the audience was crowded with people below. However, everyone was concentrating and no one was making loud noises for fear of disturbing the immortal.
"There are so many people here, what are they looking at?" Qin Baiqing stood on tiptoe and tried to see the jade platform clearly.
"Shh-"
"Don't talk," Zhong Tingyu warned without blinking his eyes, "Be quiet, don't disturb the immortal."
"Tsk tsk tsk, don't disturb the immortal..."
Qin Baiqing was dissatisfied and uttered a few sarcastic words before shutting up. Then she covered her mouth and climbed into Feng Budu's arms, trying to see farther.
But the Jade Platform was too high and too far away, and seemed as illusory as a mirage.
An invisible realm unfolds. No one can get close to it and can only watch from afar.
Suddenly, the clouds and mist that filled the jade platform changed. The clouds and mist intertwined above the platform, and the fog in the whole hall gradually condensed, and finally turned into two towering human figures on the jade platform. They were made of white mist, and wisps of white mist and clouds leaked out between the movements, making the human figures vague.
Two figures began to move.
"coming."
"The Immortals are competing in martial arts. Quickly comprehend the truth, quickly comprehend the truth..."
"Does anyone want the Gathering Spirit Stone, Gathering Spirit Array, and Enlightenment Heart Stone? This is the last wave, first come first served. You can't miss the Immortal Competition. Fellow Taoists, take a look and improve your understanding and gather spiritual energy."
"..."
Soon, all the items sold by independent cultivators who took advantage of the chaos were snapped up, and the audience fell completely silent. At the moment when the two cloud and mist immortals fought, everyone sat upright on the ground, closing their eyes and contemplating the mysterious aura of the immortals that emanated from them.
Every move made by the immortals in fighting is inspired by the heaven and earth. Above the jade platform, clouds and mist are swirling, and one can faintly see that the heaven and earth in their world are upside down, the avenue is shaking, and every gesture they make carries the power to destroy the heaven and earth.
Those with insufficient cultivation felt their blood boiling after taking a look at it. Many of them could not bear it and quietly opened their eyes. Suddenly, their souls were shaken and their cultivation was almost leaked. So they quickly closed their eyes and concentrated on their perception, not daring to look directly at the blasphemous immortal.
"This is different from what we heard at the beginning," Zhong Tingyu whispered at the end of the crowd, "At that time, no one said there were immortals."
At that time, Zhu Fu had already demonstrated his good popularity. There were people in the crowd who were familiar with him. Even when Zhu Fu took the initiative to step forward and ask about the situation, there were people who patiently explained it to him.
"It didn't exist before, but recently the Immortal Jade Platform has suddenly changed. The clouds and mist will transform into a competition for the powerful. If you can comprehend one or two things, it will be a great opportunity for enlightenment. Fellow Taoists, don't delay and comprehend it quickly."
"what?"
"That's it?"
"Fairy?"
"It's just so-so." Two voices sang in unison. Qin Baiqing and Li Jiuxing spoke one after another, both showing confused expressions. They looked at each other with sympathy and said in unison: "Isn't it just an ordinary fight?"
They have seen a lot since they were young.
"Alas... young people," the man who answered Zhu Fu sighed, shook his head and looked away in disappointment, and sighed: "It's good to be young. You don't have any reverence, you are ignorant and stupid."
The people around them also showed sighs, thinking that the two kids were ignorant and no longer paid attention to them.
They were concentrating on their comprehension. Seeing that these people did not understand her, Qin Baiqing subconsciously wanted to explain herself. However, before she opened her mouth, Feng Budu, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, covered her mouth with his hand, shook his head solemnly and silently, signaling her to shut up.
If he says anything more he will be beaten to death with sticks.
"You really don't feel anything?" He glanced at the Immortal Jade Platform with mixed feelings, and asked solemnly, "Is your spiritual energy being attracted, your soul shaken, do you have the urge to rush out and fight?"
Even he was slightly affected by the aura of the battle between the immortals and felt restless, but she didn't feel anything at all?
"No," Qin Baiqing shook her head innocently, and then asked Li Jiuxing to confirm: "Are you a little bored?"
"OK."
He sat cross-legged on the ground bored, holding his chin with his hands and said, "It's not as interesting as the fights between our Qingqiu foxes. Have you seen the Nine-Tailed Fox? If you beg me, I can take you to see it."
"I don't want to look." Qin Baiqing refused decisively, retracted her gaze and shrugged at Feng Budu.
She really didn't know how to feel.
She even felt that the two people fighting looked familiar, but she was helpless because they were just in the shape of clouds and she was just a five-year-old girl...she couldn't remember where she had seen them.
"This is Qiankuntai, you are lucky, little guy." A voice appeared in Qin Baiqing's mind.
It turned out that the three people in the Three Pure Ones world were attracted by the immortal energy. The young man who called himself Shangqing said casually: "You do have some luck on you. You bumped into Qiankuntai by accident."
The old man spoke with a sigh, "I didn't expect that this small world has so many treasures hidden in it. There is even a Qiankun Platform, which is a great benefit to the cultivators there."
After that, he paused and said simply, "Girl, take it."
"What is the Qiankuntai?" Qin Baiqing asked puzzledly.
Before she understood what was happening, these two people had already decided the fate of Xiantai with just a few words. Qin Baiqing looked at the crowd sitting on the ground and for the first time she wondered if doing so might be a bit presumptuous.
"Besides, I won't accept it."
Last time, thanks to her father's residual soul, Qin Baiqing was able to conquer Dujuan Valley easily, but this time she was completely in the dark and had no idea where to start without anyone to guide her.
"Well, let's collect it first." The old man coughed lightly and quickly changed the subject, but a ray of inspiration was sent into Qin Baiqing's sea of consciousness by the old man, which was a string of obscure formulas.
"This is the formula for conquering the Qiankun Platform. Girl, quickly take it back. It is not a good thing for a Qiankun Platform of too high a level to stay in your fragile little world for too long."
"Okay..." She learned the formula, and while everyone was observing the immortal attentively, she recited it slowly on her own.
Without anyone noticing, the clouds at the base of the Qiankun Platform slowly churned under the stimulation of the mantra, and the immortal's movements became sluggish.
Even though no one noticed, the changes were evident.
By the time Feng Budu realized what she was muttering, the incantation had already been halfway activated. He belatedly revealed a strange look and hurriedly tried to cover his mouth, but it was too late.
The jade platform glowed with spiritual light, and the color of clouds and mist and the ethereal fairy air surged across the sky, instantly drawing the monks who were watching on the scene into it.
