Chapter 478: 9 Mountains Have Fun Together, Transformation into a God is Imminent
Chapter 478: Nine Mountains Have Fun Together, Transformation into a God is Imminent
On the Paradise Island of Jiushan Realm, Bixia, the ninth elder of Chongxuan Sect, was walking in the crowd with several disciples.
There was jubilation and joy all around them.
Sect disciples, family members of Paradise Island, and even those mortals who were admitted to vocational colleges from the mortal world, regardless of their backgrounds or cultivation levels, all crowded into the largest square on Paradise Island, laughing and making noises.
All the major shops in the market are closed today.
But the shop owners did not rest, but set up various stalls in the square, brought out a wide variety of goods, and shouted a variety of slogans:
"Grilled Spirit Fish! Deep sea spirit fish, personally bred by Elder Jiao Wuji and lovingly developed by Fairy Yuan!"
"New flying sword test flight! Flying sword test flight!"
Junior Sister Ye followed behind Elder Bixia and had never seen such a lively scene. She looked left and right, but her eyes were not enough.
Elder Bixia smiled secretly when she saw her like this, and said, "If you want to play, play for a while."
A hint of excitement flashed across Sister Ye's face, and she pursed her lips again: "Disciple...Disciple is short of money."
Elder Bixia didn't know what to say after hearing this:
The fact that these disciples survived was certainly a stroke of luck, and it was also a sign of Zheng Fa’s mercy.
The problem is that they felt that their lives were coming to an end and they were in danger of losing their lives at any time, so the spirit stones were wasted like flowing water.
Now it’s better, the person is still there, but the spirit stone is gone.
Fortunately, I am provided with food while in prison in Jiushan Sect...
"for free."
Elder Bixia shook her head and smiled.
"No money?" Sister Ye was stunned. She stretched out her finger and drew a large circle towards the hundreds of stalls. She said in disbelief, "Free food and drinks?"
"Zheng Fa told me that the sect will pay for this ten-day celebration."
After hearing what Elder Bixia said, the disciples of Chongxuan behind him couldn't help but start discussing in a low voice:
"Master Zheng is so generous."
"I said, those stories are all true! What's written in them is too conservative."
"How come these Nine Mountain disciples always get all the good things?"
Elder Bixia listened to the disciples' discussion behind her and saw that Junior Sister Ye had a look of envy and hesitation on her face, so she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
"I...I'm not from the Jiushan Sect."
"Why do you think I brought you here?"
"what?"
"Zheng Fa has told me."
Sister Ye's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she immediately looked towards the east end of the square, where Zheng Fazheng, Master Zhang, and several elders from the Nine Mountains were together, talking and watching the excitement in the place with smiles on their faces.
As if he had heard their conversation, Zheng Fa raised his head towards Junior Sister Ye and the others, and nodded with a smile.
Junior Sister Ye's face lit up with joy, and she said, "Master, I'm going!"
She walked quickly to a stall, and the stall owner greeted her:
"Fairy, would you like to try our fairy smile?"
Upon hearing this, Junior Sister Ye asked curiously, "Is the fairy smiling?"
"This is a product that the Agricultural College has just developed. It is made from twelve kinds of special spiritual fruits. It has a mellow taste and pleasant fruity aroma. It can also improve cultivation and moisturize the skin. It is most suitable for all fairies."
Sister Ye was moved by what she heard, and she confirmed with a shy tone, "No money?"
"No! The headmaster said today, we'll treat you!"
Junior Sister Ye took the wine glass, drank it all, then looked up at her surroundings with a dazed look in her eyes and a smile on her lips.
Elder Bixia looked at her and sighed inwardly: It's just a glass of wine, how could this disciple really get drunk?
It is nothing more than the scene on this paradise island at this moment. For this disciple who has just escaped death, there is a kind of peaceful joy that makes people intoxicated even without drinking.
She couldn't help but look at Zheng Fa. She knew that although Zheng Fa and Jiushan Sect had spent some spirit stones this time, she had been an elder of Chongxuan after all. Of course, she could see that after the battle, the whole sect celebrated and made these Jiushan disciples more loyal to the sect. The pride on their faces was beyond words.
Not to mention these Nine Mountains disciples, even the few disciples himself were laughing wildly at this moment, and some were even hanging out with others, almost thinking of themselves as members of the Nine Mountains Sect.
I don’t know whether they are willing to listen to me or Zheng Fa in the future.
In fact, anyone can see that this is a way to win people's hearts, naked and blatant.
She glanced around the Paradise Island, the aroma of wine and elixir filling her nose, her eyes reflecting a spiritual light, and every face had a smile on it.
After a while, she couldn't help but laugh and walked towards a stall selling Lingbao jewelry.
……
Zheng Fa certainly didn't know that Elder Bixia had been bribed.
He was sitting with Senior Sister Zhang and others.
Senior Sister Yuan went back and forth, picking out some delicious food and drinks from various stalls and placed them in front of them.
This was not for any other reason, but because he did not want to disturb the disciples and mortals who were out for fun.
After all, the Xuanwei Realm has a strict hierarchy. Even in the Jiushan Realm, to truly have fun with the people, form is more important than emotion.
Uncle Pang glanced at the disciples and smiled, "Although it cost some money, the disciples are tired, so it's good to let them relax."
"Actually..." Zheng Fa glanced at Senior Sister Zhang and smiled, "It won't cost much."
"Ok?"
Zheng Fa pointed at the stalls with his chin and laughed: "These things have limited spiritual energy and are not expensive, otherwise mortals would not be able to afford them."
Uncle Pang nodded suddenly.
Zheng Fa added: "There are many of them, such as the Fairy Drunk and the new flying sword. They are all new products launched by the sect and need to be promoted."
Simply put, this celebration is actually a large-scale food and drink tasting event.
In recent years, most of the agricultural and sideline products of the Agricultural College, and the research results of the Alchemy College and the Refining College have been moved here to be tried on these people first.
"..."
Uncle Pang held the wine glass, looked at the wine in it, and suddenly laughed: "I fell into your trap."
"Ok?"
"This wine is good. I am really planning to buy a few jars to drink back home."
Yan Wushuang, on the other hand, took a bite of a skewer of grilled fish and said vaguely, "What kind of scheme is this? If it were in Tianhe... in other sects, which leader would be willing to spend this much time on this?"
After he said this, others couldn't help but look at the son of the head of Tianhe Yan.
Yan Wushuang was also at the Nascent Soul stage at this moment, and was very familiar with everyone, so he was naturally not afraid. Instead, he said, "How can a sect leader in the Xuanwei Realm fight to the death while the disciples eat and drink for free?"
"I see these disciples are eager for you, Zheng Fa, to beat Hao Rishan again."
The others were stunned. They didn't expect Yan Wushuang to have such an opinion. Uncle Pang thought for a moment and finally looked at Zheng Fa with a strange look in his eyes:
"You don't really think so, do you?"
Zheng Fa glanced at Yan Wushuang, smiled, nodded and shook his head, and explained:
"Brother Yan is half right."
"half?"
"The credit for the battle against Hao Ri Mountain can be said to belong to me, Senior Sister Zhang, Grandmaster, and Fairy Xie. But to be honest, you, Uncle Pang, and these mortal disciples, also made a lot of contributions."
Uncle Pang thought for a moment, then stroked his chin and said, "That's not bad. Apart from anything else, those spiritual materials would not be earned without these disciples."
"Master uncle is right. Fundamentally speaking, our cultivation has improved so rapidly that we were able to obtain the Xianjian Sword. They all played a role. This expense is naturally nothing."
Zheng Fa's meaning is very simple:
Most of the spiritual materials were earned by these disciples, and even the incense offerings from the Nine Mountains Realm were inseparable from their efforts. He would naturally not forget this contribution.
Not to mention, the celebration was not very expensive.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yuying's eyes lit up and she said:
"I have never thought of your perspective... It does make sense. Even the achievements of any cultivator from ancient times to the present can be understood from this perspective."
Others were confused when they heard this, but Zheng Fa looked at Xiao Yuying approvingly, thinking that this historian was really sharp.
Generally speaking, this is the transformation from the heroic historical view to the people's historical view. Of course, the situation in the mysterious world is different, so it is impossible to force it, let alone abandon the heroic historical view.
But Xiao Yuying could also see that no matter what, a cultivator's achievements could not be separated from the environment, other cultivators, and even the era at that time.
To put it in a smaller context, if Zheng Fa was defeated, the fate of these Nine Mountains disciples would definitely not be good, and most of them would probably not survive.
In Zheng Fa's view, this group of disciples not only made real contributions, but also took risks with them.
It won't be the case that if they lose, these disciples will be buried with them, while if they win, all the credit will go to Zheng Fa and his group.
Xiao Yuying seemed to have thought of something, picked up a jade tube, and seemed to be recording something.
"Fairy Xiao, what are you doing..."
Xiao Yuying glanced at Zheng Fa and suddenly smiled and said, "Why did the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor write the "Tianhe Biography"? Naturally, I want to write a "Zheng Fa Biography"."
"The Biography of Zheng Fa?" Zheng Fa felt a toothache. "This is too... a bit too much."
"Did it pass?" Xiao Yuying asked blankly.
She looked at the people around her, as if asking for their opinions.
From Xie Qingxue to Uncle Huang, although there was some surprise on their faces, everyone was shaking their heads. It seemed that they all felt that Xiao Yuying's idea was unexpected, but it was reasonable when they thought about it carefully.
Zheng Fa glanced at Xiao Yuying and was about to say something, but then he heard Xiao Yuying say, "Actually, I think you have always had some very interesting insights that are different from those of Xuanwei cultivators, and they need to be recorded."
"lest……"
She glanced at the disciples who were still having fun and seemed unable to continue.
Zheng Fa was silent for a moment and stopped trying to stop him. Everyone couldn't help but feel heavy-hearted.
"This is the second reason why I want to hold this celebration." Zheng Fa glanced at Yan Wushuang and said frankly, "Killing Luo Sanxian and defeating Hao Rishan once... can only give us some breathing space."
"Now that we have the Nine Nether Demon Ancestor and the threat of Luo Sanxian being killed, in the short term, my Jiushan Sect should not be afraid of being coveted by others."
"But... the situation in Xuanwei will definitely become tense again." Everyone nodded after hearing this.
"The Jiushan Sect is far from being able to rest on our laurels. We, the disciples of the Jiushan Sect, must be prepared to dare to fight."
After all, holding this celebration was not just a result of Zheng Fa's idealism, but rather had a practical purpose - a bit like the victory parade in later generations:
Let the disciples of Jiushan Sect enjoy the benefits and happiness of victory and cultivate their courage.
Let them know that if the Nine Mountains Realm wins, they will be able to live better and enjoy more of the benefits of the winner.
Uncle Pang suddenly sighed: "For cultivators, fighting... never ends."
"Zheng Fa, are you going to become a god?" Xie Qingxue suddenly asked.
"Well, now I have accumulated enough. Yun Zhenxian over at Haori Mountain cannot handle it alone. He will not trouble us again in the short term. But I don't know how long my Jiushan Sect can remain peaceful. The sooner I can become a god, the sooner I can be at peace."
Having said this, Zheng Fa was suddenly stunned, took out the Jade Book of Creation, and frowned.
"what happened?"
Senior Sister Zhang asked curiously.
"Master Mingde sent a letter saying that the Supreme Taoist Li Shangxian is coming to visit my Jiushan Sect."
Everyone looked at each other in surprise. Senior Sister Zhang asked again, "What do you think?"
Zheng Fa thought for a moment, then sent a spiritual letter to Master Mingde, and smiled at Senior Sister Zhang, "Of course I will be the leader."
……
In the water pavilion of Tianchi Lake of Taishang Dao, the abbot Mingde took out the Tongjian and read Zheng Fa's reply. His expression suddenly became strange.
Seeing his expression, Li Shangxian asked, "What did he say?"
The abbot Mingde said, "Zheng Fa said... he would like you to come, Master, but he may not have the time to receive you."
When the old man heard this, he immediately showed anger on his face: "Does Zheng Fa think that he can look down on me, the Supreme Daoist, just because he killed Luo Sanxian? How dare he be so negligent?"
Li Shangxian also frowned slightly, seeming a little dissatisfied.
"It's not that I'm being negligent..." Master Mingde handed the Tongjian to Li Shangxian, still explaining, "Zheng Fa said that he has to prepare for the transformation into a god and needs to go into seclusion, so he really doesn't have time."
There was silence in the pavilion for a moment. The old man opened his mouth wide, and he seemed to have no idea what to say.
After a while, Li Shangxian laughed again:
"Transformation into a god?" His tone was unclear whether it was funny or bitter, "He wants to transform into a god again?"
"..."
"Then shouldn't I go and form a baby?"
……
Elder Bixia was also thinking about Zheng Fa's preparation to become a god. With a smile on her face, she walked into the courtyard where she was temporarily staying.
Compared to Li Shangxian's indescribable feelings, her thoughts were very simple:
Master Zheng is great at becoming a spirit!
It would be best to become a god in one day, an immortal in half a month, and achieve enlightenment in one year!
This will make her feel at ease.
When Shi Nandang asked her if she regretted it that day, she said no, but to be honest, how could she not feel uneasy?
After all, her current fate is closely linked to Zheng Fashi.
Now that the Jiushan Sect had won a battle, she naturally felt a little relieved, and she even wished that Zheng Fa would become even stronger.
As soon as she entered the main courtyard, her face froze. She looked at the head of Chongxuan standing in the courtyard and asked, "Brother? Why are you here?"
The head of Chongxuan sect smiled and asked instead of answering, "Is Paradise Island very lively?"
Elder Bixia nodded.
Now in this courtyard, she and her disciples are the most comfortable - after all, they are on the side of the winner.
Therefore, they could even participate in the Jiushan Sect celebration very naturally.
But it was different for Sect Leader Chongxuan and even Shi Nandang: these two were real captives with awkward identities.
Therefore, I stayed in the yard these days and did not go to Paradise Island.
Unexpectedly, he was waiting for her in the main courtyard today.
"Lively...Lively is good. I have heard that Alliance Leader Zheng cherishes his disciples very much. Now I know that what he said is true. It is not like Haori Mountain..."
This didn't sound right to Elder Bixia. After some thought, she began to understand the purpose of this senior brother's visit.
She looked at this senior brother with a smile in her eyes.
The head of Chongxuan Sect immediately stuttered: "I... I just saw those... Qingmu Sect disciples in Jiushan Sect, they are living very well..."
"..."
"To be honest with you, Junior Sister, I regretted it too late. I only regret that I was so blind..."
It turns out that he came to surrender.
"So why did you come to see me, brother?"
The head of Chongxuan Sect laughed: "It's not that you have a keen eye for talent, and you have a close relationship with Alliance Leader Zheng. Brother thinks that if Chongxuan Sect is handed over to you, it will have a way out..."
"Brother, you are praising me too much." Elder Bixia shook his head.
Sect Leader Chongxuan's face darkened.
Then I heard Elder Bixia continue, "Senior Brother is the head of Chongxuan Sect. I will bring your meaning to Zheng Fa."
"That's good, that's good!"
"There is only one thing I need to remind you, brother."
"you say!"
"After all, our Chongxuan Sect has betrayed the Hundred Immortals Alliance."
Sect Leader Chongxuan nodded repeatedly.
"If you want the same treatment as Qingmu Sect, that is impossible. I see that Madam Xuanhua from the Refiner Guild has extraordinary attainments in refining weapons and is deeply trusted by Zheng Fa. It is impossible for my Chongxuan Sect to replace her position."
"Of course I know that!" The head of Chongxuan Sect said hurriedly, "Don't worry, Junior Sister. I know that Chongxuan disciples are here to make amends for their crimes. How dare they expect so much?"
"I think the Jiushan Sect's system values good deeds the most. As long as Zheng Fa doesn't suppress us, we can live a good life with our skills... As for comparing with the Qingmu Sect, I naturally don't dare to dream."
"Brother, you understand. Zheng Fa is not so tolerant that he cannot tolerate us." Fairy Bixia comforted him, "After all, we are not a big threat to him now."
The head of Chongxuan Sect sighed and said, "Junior sister is right."
The two of them could not help but remain silent for a moment, and then Sect Leader Chongxuan asked again, "Junior sister, are you laughing at me for being so indecisive?"
"No, I don't know that, brother, I have no choice."
A look of gratitude flashed across the face of Sect Leader Chong Xuan: "Junior sister still understands me. Whether it's Haori Mountain or Jiushan Sect, which one can I resist?"
"Here comes the Stone Man, so I will listen to him. If Alliance Leader Zheng wins, I can only bow down to him."
Elder Bixia nodded gently and comforted him, "Brother, don't worry. Zheng Fa's bottom line is very clear. As long as they haven't really harmed the disciples of Jiushan, he can spare their lives. Just look at Elder Jiao Wuji and you will know."
“This…” The head of the Zhongxuan Sect was silent for a while. Not only was he not comforted, but his expression became even more gloomy. “So our Zhongxuan Sect is incompetent and saved his life?”
"..."
Even Elder Bixia couldn't be comforted by these words. They didn't hurt the disciples of Jiushan Sect, it wasn't because they didn't want to...
Fortunately, Sect Master Zhongxuan seemed to have adjusted himself. He suddenly asked, "Stone Master..."
"Ok?"
“…Like me?”
Elder Bixia understood that this senior brother was asking whether Shi Shangren had defected like him.
She shook her head at the head of Chongxuan.
A trace of shame appeared on the face of Sect Leader Chongxuan, and he murmured:
"That's right. Shi Shangren is a proud person by nature, and he is also a disciple of Haori Mountain. How can he be like me?"
"He has great confidence in Haori Mountain. Perhaps the killing of Luo Sanxian will not shake his mind."
"I think he is loyal and brave, and would rather die than surrender."
As he spoke, he seemed to feel that it was not very interesting, and said to Elder Bixia: "If there is a junior sister, I will go back and wait for the disposal of Alliance Leader Zheng."
Elder Bixia nodded slightly.
Sect Master Zhongxuan pushed open the gate and prepared to leave, but suddenly he was stunned and asked in a lost voice, "Stone Master?"
Shi Nandang stood straight outside the door, and judging from his expression, he seemed to be caught off guard.
"Master, you..." Sect Master Zhongxuan looked at Shi Nandang, whose face was stiff, then turned back to look at Elder Bixia and asked, "You are looking for Bixia?"
Shi Nandang looked at the head of the Zhongxuan sect with a stern face. After a long silence, he said, "No, I was just strolling around and happened to pass by."
After saying this, he walked straight towards the right side courtyard without waiting for the two to reply.
Watching his figure disappear, Sect Leader Chongxuan was stunned for a long time, and suddenly said in a voice transmission: "I think Master Shi may have heard what we said."
"Ok?"
"The way he looked at me just now, it was as if he wanted to kill me." The face of the head of Zhongxuan was trembling with fear. "I think he heard that I wanted to surrender to the leader Zheng, and he was angry, but he couldn't show it in the Nine Mountains Realm."
Elder Bixia recalled Shi Nandang's facial expression and movements, and suddenly laughed: "I think Mr. Shi is not angry because of this."
"Then why?"
"Because you praised him for his loyalty and courage, and for preferring death to surrender."
