Volume 3: The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors Chapter 430: Conference of All Immortals in Heaven and Earth to Discuss Taoism!
After Qing Luo paid his respects to all the gods, he chatted with Lord Lingguang for a while.
Immediately, Qing Luo turned around and looked at the Great Emperor Changsheng and the other gods, and said: "The promotion of the divine tree and my return to the peak are all due to the help of the Great Emperor and the gods. Qing Luo would like to thank you here."
The gods were all polite.
"Now that all worlds are connected and all heavens are linked, this matter has been accomplished. As for the other matter that the emperor is planning, I will serve him!" Qing Luo looked back and saluted to the Changsheng Emperor.
The Great Emperor Changsheng nodded, and said to the thousands of sacred beings: "The Ten Extremes of the Heavens each have their own Dao, and each respects their own Dao. Since I have made it clear that I will not interfere with the operation of the world, the matter of the innate spiritual energy should be accomplished by all Taoists together. The World Tree is not only a channel connecting the heavens, but also a bridge to communicate with chaos. With the convenience of the World Tree, all Taoists can use the authority of the world to transform the breath of chaos into innate spiritual energy, so as to strengthen the Dao world!"
Upon hearing this, the gods were delighted again.
"We thank the Emperor!"
The Great Emperor Changsheng smiled and said, "So, this matter outside the heaven has come to an end. My fellow Taoists, please stay busy. Allow me to be lazy and go back to the prehistoric world to open up the Shenxiao Dao field first, so that I won't be at a loss when I look around, and I won't even have a place to stay after I return."
All the immortals and gods couldn't help but smile when they heard this.
The Great Emperor of Longevity is Ming Yushan's corpse, who was bestowed by the heaven and earth and certified to be in the Primal Chaos. Although he claims that he should be high in the Divine Heaven, there is no trace of him now!
"Your Majesty, please go ahead. If we have any doubts, we should ask the Taoist Master!"
With divine eyesight, he saw that Mingyu was also going to retire with Shanshi, so he spoke immediately, attracting the attention of all the immortals.
Everyone was delighted when they saw this, and they all started to make a noise: "That's right, Great Emperor, please go now. If we have any doubts, we should ask the Taoist Master!"
Even the King of Fengdu nodded.
You've been ordered around by me for so long, it's time to change your mind this time!
Mingyu rolled her eyes at Fengdu and whispered to herself, "Why are you joining in the fun? He just ran away after leaving the two of us to work."
“That’s right!”
The Emperor of Fengdu nodded, and then changed the subject: "But you are too late, Shanshi has already run away!"
Mingyu turned around and saw thunder like the sea and lightning like running horses. The Great Emperor Changsheng controlled thousands of thunder and lightning and arrived at the prehistoric world in an instant.
Well, the Great Emperor Changsheng not only controls all the spirits in the heavens and is in charge of all blessings, but he is also the Lord of Thunder and is in charge of all the thunder in heaven and earth.
What Mingyu, the original body, didn't expect was that the first time he used the power of Ten Thousand Thunders was to skip work and run away.
Pretty fast!
The gods stared at Mingyu with evil amusement, as if they were really afraid that he would run away.
Mingyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You all have worked so hard. How can I leave so easily when I am in charge of the affairs of Kaitian? Let's do our own thing. Daoist Haotian and I will be in charge of Tianji and have an overview of the world. If you have any doubts, just speak up and I will share your worries."
When the immortals and gods heard this accurate news, they all laughed.
"Master, please tell me. If we have any questions, we will come to ask you!" The immortals bowed in response.
Mingyu nodded in agreement.
The gods dispersed and returned to their respective realms, and began to make arrangements using the World Tree.
Haotian was left behind. He joked that Mingyu was not kind and always dragged him into things.
Mingyu sat cross-legged in the void and took out a table, teapot, jade cup and other items.
After a little while, the fragrance of the innate spiritual tea will hit your nose.
Haotian drank a cup and praised: "Good tea! It's different every time I drink it!"
"That's because your mood is different every time you drink tea." Mingyu shook his head, took a sip, and put the jade cup down. He asked, "How do you feel?"
"It tastes good, but it's still too bland. Do you have any wine?"
Haotian laughed and turned to stare at Mingyu's sleeves.
"Don't interrupt, you know what I'm asking." Mingyu said so, but seeing that the hope in Haotian's eyes did not seem fake, she reached into her sleeve and took out a wine gourd.
Unlike the mellow taste last time, this time the wine has a strong aroma and a spicy taste in the throat.
Haotian drank three cups, then put them down and complained, "From what I know, you can't drink much either. Why prepare some strong liquor?"
Mingyu looked at him calmly.
Haotian felt guilty when he was looked at. He smiled awkwardly and drank three cups in a row as a punishment for himself.
Then, he cleared his throat and quickly changed the subject: "You invited me to preside over the Tianji position during this trip to the outer world, and I haven't thanked you yet."
As he spoke, Haotian sat up straight and bowed to Mingyu.
Mingyu nodded and asked, "How are your preparations going?"
Haotian replied: "It's going well. Nine great powers are willing to serve in the Heavenly Court, and I have also trained a Heavenly Army to maintain the daily operation of the Heavenly Court. Oh, by the way, I went to the ancestral land of the human race once before, and wanted to recruit some human immortals to serve in the Heavenly Court. The human king Youchao expressed goodwill.
I haven't been to the Four Seas yet. I plan to try to win over the Heavenly Power after I have truly established it. I went to West Kunlun twice, but unfortunately the Queen Mother of the West didn't even let me in. I thought I was too ostentatious the first time, so I went alone the second time, but I still didn't see her. I was trying to find an opportunity to talk to her just now, but the Queen Mother of the West seemed to be avoiding me. "
Having said that, Haotian once again set his gaze on Mingyu, with a hint of heat in his eyes.
"Taibai said that you have a very good relationship with Yushan. You were the one who hosted the first Yaochi Festival. In the past, there was a sacred woman in the demon clan's heaven who was proficient in military formations. She was called Jiu Tian Xuan Nu. It is said that she has an extremely close relationship with you, so..."
"Ask me to be your lobbyist?" Mingyu asked with a smile.
Haotian chuckled and said, "I'm not familiar with that person, so I can't guess what she's thinking. Since you're an acquaintance, it's easier to talk to her. At least next time I go, she won't turn me away."
He was really a little worried that he would not be able to achieve his wish on his third visit to the mountain, which would really make him a laughing stock.
With Mingyu, this matter will be more secure!
"It's just a small favor, you wouldn't disagree?"
Haotian took out the Queen Mother's golden book from his arms and handed it to Mingyu.
Mingyu looked at the golden book in front of her and suddenly smiled.
He remembered an agreement, an agreement with the Queen Mother of the West.
"good!"
Seeing him take the Queen Mother's Golden Book, Haotian's smile widened.
"So, how do you feel?" Mingyu brought the topic back to where it was heading.
Haotian's little thoughts were noticed and his smile became unnatural.
He picked up the wine gourd and poured himself another glass of wine.
He dipped his fingers in the wine and wrote two words on the table - "all living beings"!
“The merit of opening up the sky, the virtue of creating the world, the ten sacred things, the blessings of all things, the tree of the world, the innate spiritual energy, all causes and all good results, all fall on these two words.” Haotian spoke slowly, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes.
Then, he wrote two more words next to the word "all living beings" - "profit".
"Benefit the great world, benefit the gods, benefit all living beings, and benefit yourself. These two words are the inducement that drives the Ten Extreme Immortal Gods to come to the Chaos Outer Heaven!"
These four words are the reason why Mingyu commands the heaven and earth with a contract, and are also the greatest gain from Haotian's journey to chaos.
As the soon-to-be Emperor of Heaven, what he has to do is to care about all living beings and seek benefits for them!
Mingyu smiled.
He also imitated Haotian, dipped his finger in wine, drew a circle around the four characters, and then wrote a word - "Tao"!
Mingyu said: "If you are righteous, you will have many supporters; if you are unrighteous, you will have few supporters. That's all!"
The way of heaven, the way of earth, the way of man, and the way of oneself.
If you understand these four, you can reach the other shore.
Haotian stared at the word "Tao" on the table, thoughtfully.
…
The two were talking at Tianji, and soon immortals and gods came.
He is an immortal who rules over a small world.
Due to my lack of basic knowledge, I have many doubts about how to construct the world formation to transform the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so I came to ask.
Mingyu patiently answered his questions. After the immortal bowed three times, he bowed and left.
Originally the gods and immortals were just joking, but they didn’t expect the Taoist master to be so reliable and actually answer questions!
As a result, a group of Golden Immortals and world masters with Taiyi cultivation also came to inquire, and Mingyu answered their questions one by one.
At first, everyone was asking questions about the construction of the world formation. But as they were asking questions, a golden immortal suddenly asked Mingyu about his own confusion.
Mingyu answered without hesitation.
As soon as he finished answering, Mingyu secretly exclaimed, "Oh no!"
But it was too late. The eyes of the immortals and gods when they looked at Mingyu had already changed. They were all as fierce as wolves and tigers, with fiery eyes.
"Master, I have a scroll of magical powers here, could you please read it?"
"Master, this is a magical treasure I have recently refined. Please give me some comments."
"Master, there is also me. I am a plant spirit who has attained the Tao. Now I am stuck in the Taiyi realm and cannot make any progress. I wonder if there is any way to advance to the next level?"
"Master..."
Immortals kept asking questions. Most of them were independent immortals without any inheritance. They had to figure out all their practices on their own, like they were walking in the dark. Now that they had the chance, how could they miss it?
Mingyu was overwhelmed, but the fairies were so sincere and it would not be a good idea to reject them directly, so she had to reply one by one.
When the gods and immortals of various races saw this scene, they were not willing to be outdone and joined in, asking questions non-stop.
It is true that they have a heritage, but if they do not accept what heaven has given them, they will suffer the consequences. It is rare to see a ready-made top-notch person preaching in public, so anyone who does not ask is a fool!
A group of powerful ancestors tinkered in their own worlds, and finally built a great world formation, then came to the void to take a look.
Okay!
All the younger generations, clansmen, and disciples went to Mingyu to listen to his teachings.
Some Taoists were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"This brat, have you learned what the old Taoist taught you? How can you be so ambitious? I'll go and call him back."
A flash of light passed by, and the old Taoist entered the crowd.
Then, he never came out again.
The gods looked and found that he had chosen a corner to sit down and was listening with great interest.
"This old Taoist priest, he will never come back, right? He actually sits in the same row with the youngsters. He is really shameless. Let me criticize him!"
There were holy footsteps, rushing into the crowd with great momentum.
Then, he used the art of transportation to exchange positions with the immortal who was closest to the front, sat down, and immediately found an opportunity to ask, "Master, I have a question..."
"Senior, you are not kind. It's my turn to ask!" Facing the avenue, an immortal was unwilling to be outdone and mustered up the courage to question.
The holy man curled his lips and said, "I can answer your question with my knees. Don't take up the Taoist master's time. Here, take this scripture and think about it yourself."
A scroll of scriptures was thrown over to the immortal, who felt like he had found a treasure.
"Hey, senior, you ask first, you ask first!"
Just like that, all the powerful ancestors also died one after another.
The level of this question-and-answer session was forcibly raised to the level of a discussion meeting of all the immortals in heaven.
Even top ancestors such as Zhen Yuanzi, Minghe, Kunpeng and the Four Supremes entered the venue, pushing the atmosphere of this conference to its peak.
Mingyu was caught off guard at first, but she immediately smiled and set a rule for the meeting.
"In this conference, there are only fellow Taoists, regardless of their cultivation level."
Don't catch me alone, seeing these grievances coming to my door... cough cough great ancestors, are there any? This opportunity is rare!
A group of immortals and gods who had not yet entered the Tao heard the hidden meaning and all agreed.
The powerful ancestors had no objections and nodded in agreement. After all, they were numerous and could handle it.
In this way, a conference on philosophy that developed completely unexpectedly became unprecedentedly grand.
Outside the sky, here, at this moment, great gods and small immortals are on the same list, ancestors communicate with younger generations, they put aside their inner grudges and only talk about the great way and the way of Tao. Immortals, big and small, speak freely and express their own opinions. Different ideas collide with each other, creating sparks of the great way!
In the Wuji land, all the Daos were surging. The old Taoist opened his eyes again. He looked at the place where the immortals were discussing Dao and nodded slightly.
In the Queen Nuwa Palace, Nuwa was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Before one crisis is over, another one arises. This disciple can always do something new no matter where and when he is.
Laozi of Shouyang Mountain stroked his beard and smiled, then glanced into the sky and saw his disciples were there too!
The Celestial Master of Yuxu Palace was filled with emotion.
The leader of the Biyou Palace made a prompt decision, waved his sleeves, and sent all his disciples with the cultivation level of Golden Immortal and above over.
This action made the two Western saints stare in amazement.
