Stepping into this Longevity Mountain.
Only to feel the sun shining on the forest, countless red mists wrapping around.
Wind blowing through the shadows, creating colorful clouds fluttering through, mysterious birds singing amongst the green bamboos, golden pheasants fighting amidst the wildflowers.
The height of the mountain.
Even with the Cloud Rider technique, it took a long time to soar.
Finally.
Arriving at the entrance of the Wuzhuang temple.
“Long-Life Immortal Emperor’s Palace, alongside Heaven the Daoist House of
Eternal Life.”
Xuanqing’s eyes looked over.
Just like when he had seen the couplet at Douluo Palace, he felt dizzy and spellbound.
Moving his eyes away, not daring to look more!
“I, a junior named Xuanqing, am a disciple and apprentice of the Old Lord. I have come to pay my respects to Great Immortal Zhenyuan!” Xuanqing made a hand-sign and raised it above his head to show his respect.
Before long.
Two elegant fairy children, one in blue and the other in purple, with their hair coiled up in buns, walked out.
These two were the fairy children of Wuzhuang Temple, one called Qingfeng and the other Mingyue, generally responsible for welcoming guests.
“Daoist, my master has asked us to welcome you. Please come in!”
“Thank you, the two envoys!”
Xuanqing cupped his hands in thanks and uttered a word of gratitude.
Afterward.
After Qingfeng and Mingyue nodded slightly, they led the way quietly, neither warm nor cold in their attitude.
It must be said.
Compared to Jin Ling and Yin Ling in Douluo Palace, the temperament of Qingfeng and Mingyue was more lighthearted and carefree.
Perhaps it was the environment they were in – one side was trapped in the Heavenly Palace refining pills all year round, while the other was exclusively for receiving and welcoming guests.
Entering the mountain gate.
Xuanqing took in the Immortal Blessed Land from the corner of his eye.
A thousand peaks lined up, ten thousand cliffs opened like screens.
Thin vines wrapped around old trees, ancient paths marked the mysterious journey. Strange flowers and auspicious grasses, tall bamboos and pines, always green and bright, teasing the Blessed Land.
In contrast to the flourishing fairy aura of the Heavenly Court, this Wuzhuang Temple exuded the unpretentious Daoist philosophy.
Approaching the entrance of a courtyard.
“Daoist friend, the master is inside. Please go in by yourself!”
” Alright!”
Xuanqing cupped his hands.
Pushing open the door and stepping inside.
Only to see a majestic figure clad in red-orange-yellow robes, with a Daoist hat pin on his head and his hair tied in a bun, his eyebrows and beard falling straight down, truly a god-man.
“Junior Xuanqing, greeting Great Immortal Zhenyuan!”
Xuanqing performed the Daoist ritual, raising it above his head, and respectfully bowed.
The person in front of him was someone who was called a brother by his own ancestor, and his manners couldn’t be lacking.
“Immeasurable Longevity and Fortune! So, you are a disciple of the Old Lord. May I ask for what purpose you have come to my Longevity Mountain Wuzhuang View?” Zhen Yuanzi waved his duster and asked with a smile.
Hearing this.
Facing such a figure as the Ancestor of Earth Immortals, it was better to simply state his purpose rather than beat around the bush, lest he displease the other party.
“I heard that in the great immortal’s temple, there is a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root called the Ginseng Fruit Tree. The Ginseng Fruits it bears, if someone is fortunate enough to hear them, they will gain three hundred and six more years of life. If eaten, one could live for forty thousand more years!”
“Coincidentally, I possess a divine power that can help spiritual plants seize Heaven and Earth’s creation, growing ten thousand years instantly. Therefore… 1 want to borrow the Ginseng Fruit Tree from you.”
“At that time… the fruits obtained will be divided into five portions. After taking them, I will break through and become immortal, and 1 will never forget the great immortal’s kindness.” Xuanqing deeply bowed.
Upon hearing this.
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhenyuanzi’s eyes.
In fact.
He had also heard about this little Daoist in front of him, who had a weak cultivation base but possessed an undying body, a strong character, and dared to confront Guanyin from Shimen. Later, he learned that he was a disciple of his old friend from Douluo Palace.
But he never thought that, besides his unusual undying body, this man actually had the divine power to make spiritual plants grow ten thousand years in an instant.
Interesting… truly interesting-
“You say that it can make a spiritual plant grow for ten thousand years in an instant, but this Ginseng Fruit Tree of mine is not an ordinary spiritual plant, but one of the Ten Great Spiritual Roots of Heaven and Earth, rooted in the Chaos, transcending the existence of the Three Realms.”
Zhen Yuanzi said indifferently.
Hearing this,
Xuanqing scratched his head.
In fact,
he couldn’t guarantee whether his [Time Acceleration (Plants)] function could be used on treasures like the Ginseng Fruit Tree.
But as the saying goes, failure is nothing to lose, but success would be extraordinary.
With this in mind,
Xuanqing bowed again and said solemnly, “1 hope the Great Immortal will give me a chance to try, whether I succeed or fail, I will always remember the kindness of the Great Immortal!”
“Well, since you are so sincere, 1 will do Old Lord a favor and let you try!”
Great Immortal Zhenyuan was quite straightforward and gave an immediate answer.
As a matter of fact,
he was also very curious to see how this young Taoist, who had not even shed his mortal body, could make a Heaven and Earth Spirit Root like the Ginseng Fruit Tree grow for ten thousand years in an instant.
Afterwards,
Great Immortal Zhenyuan waved the whisk in his hand and softly called out, “Qingfeng and Mingyue, where are you!”
The two immortals, who had been waiting outside the door, immediately entered the courtyard.
“Disciple is here, Master, what are your orders?”
“This young friend Xuanqing wants to go to the Ginseng Fruit Garden to perform his divine power, you two lead the way!” Great Immortal Zhenyuan ordered.
“Yes, Master!”
A trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of Qingfeng and Mingyue.
There is only one Ginseng Fruit Tree in the Ginseng Fruit Garden, which is the signature of their Wuzhuang Temple and also the lifeblood of their Master.
Now their Master actually asked them to take this little Daoist, who is not even an immortal, to the Ginseng Fruit Garden to perform his divine power?
How strange- How strange!
However,
although they were puzzled in their hearts, they obediently followed their Master’s orders.
“Daoist Friend Xuanqing…please follow us!”
Xuanqing slightly nodded.
After passing through two forests and several bends, and encountering countless mysterious formations along the way, without someone leading the way, it would be impossible to enter the Ginseng Fruit Garden even in death.
Seeing this situation,
Xuanqing pondered in his heart.
Under such circumstances, how did that Wukong manage to secretly steal the Ginseng Fruit without alerting anyone?
There must be something fishy here!
“This is the Ginseng Fruit Garden, Daoist Friend Xuanqing perform your divine power in here, but you must not harm the Ginseng Fruit Tree,” Qingfeng admonished.
Mingyue from the side also added, “Outside the fruit garden, there are layers of formations, and there is danger of losing your life if you don’t pay attention. If you want to leave, just call for us, don’t move around on your own!”
Hearing this,
Xuanqing bowed his hand in salute, “Thank you, both of you, I am aware!”
The two immortals nodded without saying anything and left after closing the door of the fruit garden.
Looking at the Ginseng Fruit Tree in front of him,
the trunk is not tall, about a hundred meters high, and there are many branches at its treetop, with scattered fruits hanging from them.
The fruit is flesh-colored, with limbs, and looks like a baby, giving off a somewhat creepy feeling.
“No wonder Tang Seng dared not eat it!”
Of course,
Xuanqing knew very well that the reason it looked like this was that in this world, humans were the leaders of all living beings.
For example, only demons who practiced to become immortals would take on a human form, but there was no saying that humans who practiced to become immortals would take on the form of demons, which could give a glimpse of this.
“There are originally twenty-six fruits on this tree, so let’s just accelerate it for nine thousand years and see if it will increase by thirty!”
Success or failure lies in this move.
“Hoo~”
Xuanqing took a deep breath..
