Chapter 743: Shared Banquet
"The throat and tongue of an immortal hunt are different from humans, but they are broader. You can speak human language or roar. Just adapt to it slightly."
Seeing Pei Ye frowned with his two eyebrow feathers, tilted his head and tried, and for a while, "chirp", "twitter", "gaa", "tweet" rose and fell on the banquet table.
After about a dozen sounds, Seeing Pei Ye finally found the position and chirped: "Is this right?"
Daqiang looked at him lightly: "The tone is like a eunuch."
"This bird throat is too thin." Seeing Pei Ye said, tilting his head to look at Lu Wu, "What breed is this one of mine?"
Lu Wu said: "Shaoqiang."
Daqiang said: "Bird."
Seeing Pei Ye was surprised: "So you can speak human language."
He had only seen two birds chirping together before.
Lu Wu said: "Green birds have their own language. You can learn it later."
Daqiang looked at him and "tweeted". Seeing Pei Ye narrowed his bird pupils. He didn't understand, but felt it wasn't anything good.
Then he looked at the branch under his feet, which was also a small divine tree, connected to Daqiang's on the left, as if they were two roots of the same tree, the leaves were like pearls, full of immortal intent.
Seeing Pei Ye tried to jump toward Daqiang, finding there was no obstruction in between.
At this moment, he realized that there had been no speech on the table, and everyone was watching him quietly, so he fell silent for a moment, turned and jumped back to his own branches. He gathered his wings and raised his neck, standing as a handsome and quiet immortal bird.
Lu Wu scanned them and smiled: "Let's welcome our Young Hero 【Shaoqiang】."
After saying this, it clapped its palms, producing two dull applause sounds.
Then Jiao also learned to clap. The kind smile on its face seemed to never disappear. Ying Zhao said: "Welcome." Shengyu turned its head and nodded at him.
Daqiang also chirped twice. Seeing Pei Ye didn't understand again.
He spread his wings and also chirped twice. His bird pupils also scanned everyone in his field of vision.
He was definitely sitting at such a level of table for the first time, and enjoyed a completely equal seat with these immortal beasts in front of him. He knew in his heart that each of these people might stand at a height he couldn't look up to.
Li Jian went without saying, the person in power of the Immortal Terrace, looking at the four directions of Great Tang from the highest star-watching tower in the Divine Capital. Seeing Pei Ye had already contacted him several times, but he still couldn't see through the shadow behind him.
Jiao's identity had always been mysterious. The only information he revealed was that he was in the north a few days ago, knew about Zhao Lingjun, and that Li Jian had sought his help to counter the influence of the mirage. His tone when talking to Li Jian was also casual. Seeing Pei Ye guessed that he stood at a similar height to Li Jian, and... should not be young either.
Ying Zhao's personality was very gentle. Seeing Pei Ye always felt that there was a kind and upright person behind it, but its identity was also completely a mystery. Seeing Pei Ye partially suspected that there was an older female senior behind it, and she also stood at a very high position
—it was very difficult for a young person to talk about world secrets so peacefully, and there was no solemnity when talking about the West Court of Immortal Rights.
Seeing Pei Ye didn't have much impression of this big and beautiful bird Shengyu, but he had already roughly guessed her identity—she participated in the water lord's ascension that just passed, spoke to him when they first met at the Zhu Mirror Hall, saying "looking forward to a day of true cooperation", and later appeared on the lake to control General Chan.
Seeing Pei Ye believed this guess was not far off, because she was indeed in the Divine Capital, and when they parted a few days ago, Seeing Pei Ye wanted to pay a visit to this Sword Master, and Li Xizhou told him "You can ask her yourself in a few days."
This identity should not be known to everyone at this banquet table, it counted as a piece of information Seeing Pei Ye had mastered.
Daqiang went without saying.
Probably before this time, its identity was also confidential, but after the mirage incident, Jiao clearly had already guessed its identity, and didn't cover it up that day, saying quite openly "Bring our Highness 'Daqiang' back early."
Calculating this way, the other five people at this table, he actually already knew the identities of three of them. For a moment, he felt quite good in his heart, but then he thought, it seemed everyone clearly knew who he was, so he fell into deep thought again.
Lu Wu tapped the table with its sharp claws: "Life Dog has closed its doors for a long time, adding a new partner is not easy. This position has been known for a long time, and now it has changed hands three times, falling on the Young Hero, which also relies on Daqiang's recommendation. Then, as before every time, I will reiterate the 'Wang Mu's Three Admonitions' to everyone."
Lu Wu's voice was very steady, and only its voice existed in the immortal realm.
"First, without the full consent of those present, you must not reveal the Wang Mu's dream to the present world in the slightest;
Second, everyone who receives the gift of the Wang Mu's banquet must strive to complete the ideals they claim, and must not break the faith;
Third, once you enter this enclosure, be sincere and red-hearted, be of the same spirit and connected branches, and must not kill or harm each other.
Those who violate these three, will be killed together."
The other few said: "Willing to obey the Wang Mu's order."
Seeing Pei Ye frowned and fell silent for a while, until several gazes slowly looked over, then he hurriedly said: "Willing to obey the Wang Mu's order."
"Sorry, I didn't think clearly about what it all meant for a moment."
Daqiang said: "Is that so? I thought you regretted it."
Seeing Pei Ye asked curiously: "Can I regret it?"
Several pairs of eyes looked at him quietly.
"I'm just asking."
Jiao smiled: "This hasn't been done by anyone yet, and I don't know if it can be done. You can try it."
Seeing Pei Ye asked curiously: "How to try?"
"Try to survive under its hands." Jiao pointed to Lu Wu beside him.
"..."
Seeing Pei Ye looked up. The big tiger's majestic
pupils had no emotion, but were watching him quietly.
"... Looking at me for what? Are you really waiting for me to try?"
"Since Shaoqiang has no such intention for the time being, that is a fortune for Life Dog." Lu Wu withdrew its gaze, "I will make some introductions. First, in the Wang Mu's dream, unless necessary, mention the real names of everyone as little as possible; second, Life Dog doesn't distinguish between public and private affairs. You can seek information or help here for everything; third, among Life Dog members, perhaps precisely because they wear masks, they are more intimate than you imagine. As long as you maintain respect and follow, these are reliable companions. Of course, this requires time to familiarize and trust; fourth, we are very powerful, but for the things we have to fight against, everyone is just a short-lived inchworm. I hope you will see clearly and still not fall into the ambition of rushing into the fire."
After saying this, it turned its tiger head and looked at the other four: "Shaoqiang is our youngest member, and perhaps will be our most powerful member in the future. From now on, if you have spare energy, I hope you will take care of him more."
All four nodded.
Seeing Pei Ye stood straight and saluted with his wings.
Lu Wu tapped the table with its sharp claws: "Then, let the banquet begin."
Seeing Pei Ye was startled, but there was no need for others to introduce him. Immortal music suddenly sounded in the dream, like hearing immortal music. There was nothing to feast on, and an empty jade plate appeared in the center of the banquet table.
And when he looked, he saw some sporadic things appearing on the tables in front of the other few.
A golden book appeared in front of Lu Wu, with a small sword on the edge of the golden book, the same as the one seen on the top floor of the Star-Watching Tower that day, but much smaller. Beside it was a jade cup, filled with half-full clear liquid, colorless and waveless, like a small mirror.
On the table in front of Shengyu, there was also a small sword shape, with a long bamboo scabbard and delicate spots, which was the 【Xiang Huang】. Beside it was also a jade cup, filled with viscous liquid, less than half full, as if squirming gently.
There was nothing on the table in front of Daqiang.
Jiao also had nothing.
Seeing Pei Ye went to look at Ying Zhao again, and was startled again, only to see a small sword shape appearing on its table, but it was wrapped in cloth and didn't reveal the style. Then a jade cup appeared in front of it, filled with half-full clear liquid, also colorless, but fluctuating without wind, mysterious and indescribable. Seeing Pei Ye only glanced at it and felt dizzy.
At this time, Seeing Pei Ye lowered his head to look at the table in front of him.
Things also appeared.
A small painting scroll, only the length of a palm, with dark purple jade bamboo as the axis, tightly closed.
A jade cup, filled with ten thousand colors mixed with divine beauty liquid, intoxicating at a glance, only half a cup.
A jade cup, much smaller than the previous one, filled with clear water, full cup.
Another jade cup, also much smaller than the others, filled with dark blue liquid, small flames
flowers wandering on the edge of the cup, also full cup.
Seeing Pei Ye was stunned for a while, then raised his head, deeply shocked and looking at these people.
But the other few beasts didn't have any shock, only Daqiang beside him looked at the things in front of him curiously.
"A few days ago, here in the Divine Capital, relying on the efforts of Daqiang, Shaoqiang, and Shengyu, the mirage matter that we have planned for many years has ended. Now there is one tail and two beginnings." Lu Wu said, "Let's talk about the two most important ones first. First, Shaoqiang now possesses the two star rights of Can and Zui, and can light up 【Shichen】, but other places have already been connected. Once it takes 【Shichen】, it is very likely to face the True Heaven directly. This step must be taken, and it needs to be very cautious. I am asking for advice and confirmation from everyone. This is our first discussion."
Jiao said: "How many worries are there?"
"Three." Lu Wu had clearly considered it for several days, "First, its mind and spirit are difficult to face the True Heaven directly. If it is captured and injured, it will inevitably be crazy; second, its mortal body is probably difficult to bear the power of the True Heaven, and it is easy to collapse; third, things in the sky, you and I don't know. Opening the connection between the human world and the True Heaven is likely to cause the Immortal Lord to climb down. For the rest that were not expected, I ask everyone to consider."
Jiao looked at the new green bird opposite the table: "Shaoqiang possesses 【Quail Head】, so there should be no worry about the mind and spirit."
Seeing Pei Ye lowered his head to look at the jade cup on his table and nodded. Then he said: "But I'm not very good at using it... I don't understand the technique of mind and spirit, and I didn't practice it when I was a child."
Jiao said: "Haven't you practiced anything?"
Seeing Pei Ye thought for a moment: "Only learned a 【Heart Slip】 of the Confucian school."
Jiao was somewhat surprised: "Are you still a Confucian disciple? This is already a unique mind-spirit technique in the world."
Seeing Pei Ye shook his head: "It was passed on to me by a teacher."
Daqiang said at this time: "It is Zhu Wen Zhezi of the Heavenly Principle Academy."
"Hmm, so it is." Jiao thought for a moment, "Then in fact, the conditions are already complete. You just don't understand the dispatch, just learn it."
Lu Wu looked at Jiao: "It is precisely to ask you to do some teaching. If you nod, then this item is solved."
Jiao smiled: "Easy to say."
Then looked at Seeing Pei Ye: "Then let's make an appointment separately."
"The second one is not easy to solve, but it is simple to say." Lu Wu said, "Either ask Shengyu for help, or ask about the method of Mount Tai Medicine Hut."
Seeing Pei Ye asked curiously: "What is the most stable method."
Shengyu tilted its head to look at Seeing Pei Ye: "His body is not suitable for reckless movement. If it's not urgent, I think it's the most stable method."
Seeing Pei Ye asked curiously: "What is the most stable method."
Shengyu said: "You condense the spirit body yourself."
"..." Seeing Pei Ye was startled, "Won't that be too late."
"With your aptitude, stepping into the Mystic Gate should not count as a threshold."
Lu Wu nodded: "I think so too. Does Shaoqiang feel?"
Seeing Pei Ye was startled for a while. He remembered the piece of True Heaven he saw through the West Court that night, and felt a cold shudder from the depths of his soul again... He clearly felt his own weakness now, so he nodded slowly.
"After the Feather Scale Trial, I will prepare to break the realm." He said.
"Then it is the third thing." Lu Wu said.
The banquet table was silent for a while.
Seeing Pei Ye was also thinking deeply. He understood Li Jian's meaning.
Probably he was the person in the world most familiar with the Immortal Lord in the sky.
Human world—Seeing Pei Ye—Imperial Map—Immortal Lord, this was a path he firmly remembered in his heart.
At the beginning, the connection between Seeing Pei Ye and the Imperial Map was blocked, but later at Kongdong, the Imperial Map invaded his mind and spirit. He resisted, but he was almost destined to become the container for the Immortal Lord's descent.
During that time, he was determined to kill himself, so that the link of "Seeing Pei Ye" would break, and this path would at least not connect through him.
Later, in the rain at Great Kongdong, he actively recited that honorable name and accepted everything about 《Purple Bamboo Forest Dragon Immortal Secret Imperial Map》. He truly became the master of the Imperial Map.
It was precisely with the Imperial Map as a weapon that he defeated Qu Zhu, who held the West Court Heart, and obtained the West Court Heart. After that, the fusion between him and the Imperial Map didn't break again, but the West Court Heart blocked the connection between the Imperial Map and the Immortal Lord.
If he wanted to touch the power of the True Heaven now, then this path was Human world—Seeing Pei Ye—West Court Heart—True Heaven.
Who knows what happened in the sky?
If the Immortal Lord was above the True Heaven, then the Imperial Map was no longer needed, and the West Court Heart would become the key link connecting Him and the human world.
"This matter, I think the main considerations are me and Shaoqiang." Lu Wu looked at Seeing Pei Ye, "First, we know more about His affairs; second, I need to be responsible for the Great Tang human world, and Shaoqiang, if an accident occurs in this link, perhaps you will have to use your life to block Him again. And from then on, the West Court Heart will be polluted and no one will be able to inherit it."
Seeing Pei Ye nodded slowly, his bird pupils silent.
"Before condensing the body, I will find a path." He said seriously.
"Good." Lu Wu nodded, "Big things are done in small details, no need to rush to solve it within a few days. Today there is a direction. In short, wait for the White Water Divine Name to be given to you first."
Seeing Pei Ye asked curiously: "What is the divine name this time? Is it good to hear?"
"【Chi Jiang Zi Yu】." Lu Wu didn't flip the golden book, "Is it good?"
Seeing Pei Ye frowned deeply. ===== CHAPTER 744 =====
