Chapter 247: Grand Ceremony

The sky is clear and cloudless.

Miluo Peak is full of strange flowers, including red, pink, blue, and purple...the flowers are in clusters, colorful, and have wonderful fragrance, which makes people feel comfortable.

A sapphire step fell from the top of the peak. It stood in the sky, surrounded by clear springs in the air. Shi Xuan led ten disciples, guided by the monks of the Luofu Sect, and walked up the steps to the top of Miluo Peak deep in the white clouds. go.

The leading monk secretly glanced at Shi Xuan from time to time, his eyes full of reverence and yearning, and at the same time, he kept walking up the steps.

The sapphire steps seemed extremely long, but Shi Xuan only took five steps and found that he had reached the top of Miluo Peak. On Miluo Peak, white cranes danced and chirped, and other fairy and auspicious beasts wandered among the white clouds. A road paved with jade stretched from the edge of the peak to the hall that looked like a fairy palace.

After entering the main hall, there were already inner disciples of the Luofu Sect waiting for them. A female disciple wearing a pink dress came up and said, "Junior Mei Leer, Senior Shi, please follow me forward."

Shi Xuan nodded, and under the leadership of Mei Leer, he walked to a green bamboo table on the first left hand side of the main hall. Behind the green bamboo table was an apricot-yellow futon. Mei Leer smiled politely and said: "Senior Shi, please sit here." As for Luo Banshan, Tang Youqiu, Jiang Nianqiao and others, they could only wait behind Shi Xuan.

Hearing this, Shi Xuan sat cross-legged on the futon, while Mei Leer brought out a white jade plate from nowhere, with a simple and elegant set of teacups and teapots on it. She skillfully made tea for Shi Xuan, and then stood delicately on Shi Xuan's right hand with her head held high and her back straight. It seemed that she would be solely responsible for Shi Xuan's case from now on.

Shi Xuan had already looked at this hall. There were two to three hundred desks in two rows inside. This showed that in addition to the eight major sects, there were many other small and medium-sized sects and casual cultivators.

I just don’t know how this order is arranged. If we look at the strength of the sects, the Penglai sect no longer has an advantage compared to the top-grade golden elixir. Compared with the real people above Yuanshen, Meng Nishang of the Guanghan sect has suffered three heavenly tribulations. If it is based on the previous Shi Xuan didn't know where the cultivators who came to congratulate him would rank, so Shi Xuan was a little confused as to why the Penglai sect was still ranked first without a doubt. Could it be that there were two pure Yang magic weapons? Could it be based on the results of the last Cangmang Dharma Assembly?

There were already many monks sitting in the main hall. Dong Yuanzi, whom Shi Xuan knew, was sitting behind the second desk opposite. Seeing Shi Xuan looking at him, he smiled and nodded in response. Lou Yizhi sat under Shi Xuan, and Gong Xujing and The other six female disciples were standing behind her. When Shi Xuan looked over, she nodded as well, but her face was still as cold as ice.

Shi Xuan didn't recognize any of the other small and medium-sized sect monks and casual cultivators sitting in the middle and back of the hall. Next to the white jade chair above the main hall, there is a young man in Confucian robes and ribbons standing there, leaning slightly to the side, his eyes seeming to be open or closed.

After a while, Ning Wuque, who was wearing a pure white robe, and a handsome purple-haired young man in a black royal robe came hand in hand. The purple-haired monk's eyes flashed with strange lights, and the colors changed continuously. If any monk was overestimating his abilities, Looking at the past, he even felt like his soul was separated. He walked straight to the desk opposite Shi Xuan and sat down. He looked at the void in front of him intently, as if he was isolated from this world. This was exactly what Dong Yuanzi mentioned yesterday. , the reincarnation king who the Nether Sect came to congratulate this time ranked first in the mobile rankings today.

Among the eight disciples he led, two were Qi-entraining and six were out-of-body. Half were in black robes and half were in white robes. However, they were all filled with Yin Qi, and they were unable to contain this special aura even after thinking about it.

Ning Wuque sat down under Lou Yi. He didn't even look at Shi Xuan. Behind him were the eight dull guards in red armor, a middle-aged charioteer, and eight beautiful maids.

Afterwards, Xu Yu, who was dressed in plain white, and Lu Xiangrong, who was wearing red Taoist robes, came with the disciples of their respective sects. Xu Yu sat under Ning Wuque, and Lu Xiangrong, a veteran middle-grade golden elixir monk from Tianhuo Sect, sat under Dong Yuanzi. Also a few years ago, Tianhuo Sect finally produced a high-grade golden elixir. Song Wenyao, the Heavenly Fire Immortal.

When the tables in the main hall were all filled with monks, a clear sound resounded through the sky, and then one after another, nine times later, a man in his thirties wearing a Liangyi Taoist robe walked in. He was tall, His face was as sharp as a knife, and there was a hint of leisure in his composure.

Seeing him coming in, the man in Confucian robes first raised his hands and said, "Congratulations to Senior Brother Shen for achieving the Golden Elixir." Then all the monks sitting cross-legged stood up, whether they were the Golden Elixir Grandmaster or the Divine Soul Stage monks, they all shouted in unison. Said: "Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Shen (senior) for achieving the Golden Elixir."

Shen Xianyun walked slowly to the big white jade chair amidst congratulations, then turned around and cupped his hands and said: "Shen Xianyun thanks all fellow Taoists. Please sit down."

After all the monks were seated, Shen Xianyun sat upright in the white jade chair. The man in Confucian robes walked to the middle and faced Shen Xianyun: "Junior brother Qiao Mu Bai Dai sect congratulates senior brother for achieving the golden elixir." He clapped his hands, and two inner disciples came holding two jade boxes. Next to Shen Xianyun, the jade box was presented respectfully.

Shi Xuan thought in his heart, it turns out that this is Qiao Mubai, the sword-playing maniac. Listening to his voice, he is afraid that he is the golden elixir master who taught him a lesson in Tianji City for his arrogance. He is now ranked fourth on the Tianji Ranking, but judging from his expression , I am afraid that he is much more arrogant than himself, and he says arrogant things. I really don’t know who is talking about whom.

After Qiao Mubai finished congratulating, Mei Leer motioned Shi Xuan to come forward. Shi Xuan slowly stood up, took Luo Banshan and Tang Youqiu to the middle aisle, bowed to Shen Xianyun and said: "Junior Penglai Sect Shi Xuan congratulates Senior Shen on his achievement of the Golden Core on behalf of the sect." Luo Banshan and Tang Youqiu bowed and saluted, then walked up with the gift carefully selected by Lingxing.

The small and medium-sized sects and independent cultivators below immediately focused their attention on Shi Xuan. In the past two days, it was rumored that this first sword master below the Golden Core had mastered the sword light splitting, which shocked them. Shi Xuan lived in seclusion and was difficult to visit, so they naturally had to take a good look at him now.

Shen Xianyun took the gift in silence, and then said lightly: "Thank you Penglai Sect." After a pause, he continued: "I wonder if your master is doing well?" He knew that Mo Yuan had achieved the Yin God, but at this time he could only ask this question.

Shi Xuan replied respectfully, "My master is doing well. He once told me that if Senior Shen achieves the Golden Elixir, I must come and congratulate him in person."

Shen Xianyun smiled and said, "Good, very good." He was quite self-deprecating.

Seeing that he didn't say anything more, Shi Xuan bowed again and went behind his desk, passing Qiao Mubai sideways. Then Shi Xuan's consciousness sensed Qiao Mubai's words: "You can restrain your arrogance and comprehend the mystery of sword light differentiation in these years. It's very good." There was a bit of appreciation.

Shi Xuan could only say, "Senior, you are too kind." If Qiao Mubai was present at the time, he would not be able to hide the secret of his real and fake sword light differentiation from him. After all, although Lou Yizhi was a top-grade Golden Elixir, he had only been in the Dan stage for a short time, and his swordsmanship was not as good as Qiao Mubai, the master of swordsmanship who had mastered the sword light differentiation.

Qiao Mubai snorted: "How can we, as sword learners, be so hypocritical? We cannot restrain our arrogance and go to another extreme. You must remember this." He seemed to be quite interested in being a teacher, but since he taught Shi Xuan a lesson because he was too arrogant, it was known that this was in line with his character. Of course, he hated evil as much as he hated others.

"Yes." Shi Xuan answered politely, then sat cross-legged and watched the sects and independent cultivators behind him come up to congratulate him one by one.

It was not until the sun was high and noon that the congratulations ended. Then the disciples and maids of Luofu Sect came in one after another with jade plates. On them were immortal fruits and spiritual fruits such as peaches. Although they were not of much use to cultivators like Shi Xuan, they tasted really good, so Shi Xuan did not pretend to be hypocritical and tasted them without hesitation. Among most of the polite cultivators, he seemed very free and easy.

Uncle Shi took the lead, and disciples such as Tang Youqiu and Jiang Nianqiao also took the fairy fruit and started eating. These fairy fruits and spiritual fruits can clear the soul and strengthen the body, which has a significant effect. Of course, after coming down, you still have to practice and digest step by step, otherwise the benefits will turn into harm.

In the corridor, some Luofu Sect maids began to dance. Lou Yizi was beside Shi Xuan, and it was really impossible to chat. He could only watch the fairy dance and eat the peach fairy fruit.

After a quarter of an hour, the Luofu Sect disciples and maids entered again and took away the jade plate. At this time, Qiao Mubai stood up and said loudly: "The day before yesterday, our eight major sects agreed to let the disciples spar after the grand ceremony today, so that they can have more fighting experience, so as not to suffer losses when they go out in the future."

As soon as these words came out, the cultivators and independent cultivators of the small and medium-sized sects were all happy. It was a pleasant surprise to see the eight major sects sparring. Although their cultivation was far higher than those disciples and there was no need to spy on anything, they could still see how these major sects trained their disciples from the performance of the eight major sects' disciples and accumulate experience for their own sects or their own training of disciples. Another reason for excitement was that watching the excitement was indeed a good thing, and it could be regarded as a small Cangmang Dharma Assembly.

After Qiao Mubai finished speaking, he pointed his hand, and the hallway emitted a hazy light, then gathered upwards, and finally turned into a fighting platform with a radius of several dozen feet above, with a staircase winding down on each side.

"Which sect disciple is willing to come first?" Qiao Mubai looked at the cultivators of the other seven sects.

Ning Wuque stood up without hesitation: "My Blood Demon Sect is willing, but we have a designated opponent, that is Penglai Sect." As he spoke, he looked at Shi Xuan with a mocking smile, with a little crazy fire burning in his eyes.

Huh, the other cultivators outside the eight major sects took a breath of cold air. They didn't expect that the situation would be so tense at the beginning, but it made sense when they thought about it. Shi Xuan of Penglai Sect had a grudge against the Blood Demon Sect.

Qiao Mubai looked at Shi Xuan and asked: "I wonder if Penglai Sect is willing to fight?"
