Chapter 272
Before the gate of East Western Western Kunlun.
"May I ask for your honorable name, Fellow Daoist?"
"Bingyi."
"Where do you come from, Fellow Daoist?"
"The Abyss of Congji."
"What is your purpose here?"
"To pay respects to the master of this place."
The dim-witted three-colored cat looked up at the innate divinity who had come to pay respects to the mountain.
He saw that his figure was slender and graceful, his white robes fluttering and spotless. His ink-black hair was like a waterfall, tied in a bun with a jade crown, a few strands of hair fluttering in the wind; his face was like the beauty of creation, his body had an aura of clarity and spirit, and the whole person was clean and tidy.
"This meow thinks you look like a good god." Lu Wu evaluated Bingyi.
"Thank you for the compliment, Fellow Daoist." Bingyi's smile was gentle, and his voice was as smooth as jade.
"But it's a pity, you came at the wrong time."
The cat shook its head: "The three Heavenly Sovereigns are either in seclusion or out traveling and not at home."
"The immortals of Yu Xu Palace have been busy with important matters recently and are not here."
"Now the void-reality barrier of East Western Kunlun is closed, and outsiders cannot enter; even if you go up the mountain, you can only look at the scenery."
Bingyi heard this and asked: "May I ask, Fellow Daoist, when will East Western Kunlun open its mountain gate?"
"This meow doesn't know this question; you have to ask Xiao Wu." The three-colored cat elegantly licked its paws.
"Who is Xiao Wu?"
"One of the mountain-guarding divine beasts of East Western Kunlun."
Bingyi wanted to ask more, but the three-colored cat suddenly lay down on the stone steps and began to groom its fur.
The cat stopped talking.
Bingyi looked down at the cat, thought for a moment, squatted down, and took a brocade pouch from his sleeve.
After untying it, a colorful cloud floated out of the pouch.
Bingyi reached out and kneaded the colorful cloud into a fluffy ball, then slowly pushed it in front of the three-colored cat.
"Hmm?" The three-colored cat was instantly attracted; it stretched out a paw and grabbed the fluffy ball, which was soft.
*Whoosh~~*
The next instant, the colorful fluffy ball turned into a golden carp.
"Carp produced by the Dahe, the taste is delicious." Bingyi smiled.
"Are you a River God?"
Lu Wu loosened its claws, and the carp brushed back into a fluffy ball, then turned into a colorful cloud again.
Its amber eyes stared at the colorful cloud for a while; this cloud was a nebula, containing countless small worlds shaped like stars.
More importantly, these small worlds are suitable for raising fish!
"Indeed, I am a River God." Bingyi nodded.
"Since you are a River God, then I won't be polite." The three-colored cat felt that if a River God gives a fish pond, it must be professional, and in the future, it can raise some fish itself to make dried fish to bribe Xiao Wu.
Accepting this nebula, the three-colored cat looked at Bingyi: "Extend your left hand."
Bingyi complied.
The cat stretched out a paw and placed it on Bingyi's palm.
It was warm and smooth to the touch; Bingyi looked and saw it was a piece of raw jade.
"As the saying goes: Jade comes from Mount Kun. Western Kunlun's jade is a top-grade material for refining weapons."
The three-colored cat looked at Bingyi earnestly: "Let's make an equal exchange."
"Of course, if you want to eat it, that's fine too; you can refine it into jade paste or jade liquid."
Bingyi looked at the Western Kunlun jade in his palm and said in surprise: "Is this one of the raw materials for the 'Supreme Immortal Grade' Nectar Jade Liquid?"
"You've heard of Nectar Jade Liquid too?" Lu Wu wagged its tail happily; this was its own proud specialty.
Bingyi nodded slowly: "In all the myriad worlds, wherever there is a Mount Western Kunlun, there will be this legend."
"It seems you have been to many places, Fellow Daoist."
Lu Wu saw that Bingyi had accepted the Western Kunlun jade, and it nodded with great satisfaction.
"Follow me, I'll take you to find Xiao Wu; I'm also here to visit today."
"Visit?" Bingyi was slightly stunned; isn't this the East Western Kunlun mountain-guarding divine beast?
"Yes!"
Lu Wu led Bingyi toward the mountain gate: "I am from West Western Kunlun; it's very reasonable to come to East Western Kunlun to visit, right?"
"Very reasonable." Bingyi didn't hear any meaning of lying in the cat's tone.
He followed Lu Wu across the mountain gate, along the stone steps, and kept moving forward.
The stone steps were not long, only ninety-nine steps.
Soon they reached the end.
However, when they stepped on the last step, the stone steps began to extend continuously.
After ninety-nine steps, there were another ninety-nine steps, stretching endlessly.
Bingyi followed the three-colored cat all the way, crossing countless time and space, and finally saw a magnificent Heavenly Gate.
This was the true location of the East Western Kunlun mountain gate.
In the boundless void, a majestic five-colored lion sat crouched.
This lion was surrounded by pure bright divine light, with five-colored auspicious clouds rising above its head, evolving the scenes of the heavens, and for a time, golden lotuses swayed and fell, and necklaces of jewels were everywhere.
At this very moment, Xiao Wu was performing its duty, guarding East Western Kunlun.
At the same time, it was working hard to cultivate, comprehending the method of the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Clouds.
Under its continuous improvement, the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Clouds not only possessed the effect of protecting the body but could also draw upon the power of the heavens to polish itself.
In this way, even when using the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Clouds to defend against enemies in the future, it could ensure that it remained in a state of cultivation.
"Xiao Wu, I've come to see you again!"
Lu Wu meowed, crossed the boundary of void and reality, and jumped in front of the mountain gate.
"Lu Wu?"
Xiao Wu opened its eyes, feeling very happy in its heart, and jumped out of the void.
"You've come to discuss the Dao with me again?"
"Quick, quick, let's go to the Yu Xu Dharma Platform to compete."
Xiao Wu enthusiastically summoned Lu Wu. "What? Fighting again?" The three-colored cat heard this and couldn't help but take two steps back.
"It's not fighting, it's discussing the Dao; my cultivation has just made progress."
Xiao Wu said happily: "I just finished the transformation of the Myriad Heavens Auspicious Clouds, and I was just thinking of testing the effect!"
"Ah?"
The cat widened its eyes, looking at Xiao Wu like a monster: "I've only been gone for ten days or so, and you've realized something new again?"
Xiao Wu said: "We have a saying in the Yin-Yang Universe: 'If you can renovate yourself one day, do it from day to day, and keep doing it day after day.' It means that cultivators constantly cultivate, comprehend the Great Dao, pursue innovation, and will have new gains every day."
"The so-called 'Heaven rewards diligence' is also this principle."
"What our Heavenly Immortal lineage needs to control is the Heavenly Dao; as long as we are diligent in cultivation, we can receive the gifts of the Great Dao."
"Realizing something in ten days or so, this is very reasonable, right?"
"This... is it reasonable?"
Lu Wu looked at the earnest Xiao Wu, and a sense of urgency arose in its heart.
You are too competitive!
If this continues, heaven knows if Xiao Wu's cultivation will exceed its own by the time the Western Western Kunlun Joint Law Enforcement Team is established.
If my cultivation is not as good as Xiao Wu, Qing Niu, and Kui Niu, then how can I be the captain of the law enforcement team?
"By the way, where are those two, Qing Niu?"
Lu Wu looked left and right, not seeing the figures of the two divine beasts, and the sense of urgency in its heart intensified again: "Could they have gone into seclusion to cultivate?"
"Yes!"
Xiao Wu said as a matter of course: "Qing Niu is following the Bagua Purple Gold Furnace to learn alchemy, and Kui Niu has gone to break through the Shangqing Sword Pool Mystical Realm."
"Oh right, the Water and Fire boys are also in seclusion."
Lu Wu was numb.
What's wrong with you East Western Kunlun, are you all competitive kings?
"From today on, I'm going to live in your East Western Kunlun every day!" The cat decided to go against these competitive kings; you all secretly cultivate and don't bring me, right?
I am going to be the cat of the Western Western Kunlun God.
I must not lose to you!
"That would be great!"
Xiao Wu was very happy. It chatted with Lu Wu for a few more sentences, then looked at Bingyi: "Please enter, Fellow Daoist, my master has already returned to the mountain."
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist." Bingyi smiled and looked at the two divine beasts; from the conversation just now, he learned a little information about Western Western Kunlun.
Xiao Wu led Bingyi to Yu Xu Palace.
The first sentence Bingyi said when he saw Xuanqing was:
"May I ask, Fellow Daoist, have you ever heard of the River Chart?"
"Oh?"
On the cloud platform, Xuanqing asked with a smile: "Is the River Chart you speak of the 'Dahe' river?"
"It is the 'Dahe' river."
Bingyi pondered for a moment and added: "It is also the river of the starry river."
"A long time ago, a cluster of flowing fire fell into the Dahe, went against the current, and finally appeared in my Abyss of Congji."
"As the saying goes, 'If Heaven gives and you do not take, you will suffer the blame,' so driven by curiosity, I obtained this object."
As he spoke, Bingyi suddenly recited the true incantation:
"One and six share the same sect, water dwells in the north; two and seven share the same path, fire dwells in the south; three and eight are friends, wood dwells in the east; four and nine are friends, metal dwells in the west; five and ten share the same path, earth dwells in the center."
As each word of the true incantation was chanted, a brilliant scroll appeared in Yu Xu Palace.
"The object transformed by that cluster of flowing fire is the River Chart, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure." Bingyi bowed to Xuanqing.
Xuanqing asked: "What do you mean by this, Fellow Daoist?"
"Please save me, Fellow Daoist!"
Bingyi's words were earnest: "Since I obtained this object, I have studied it day and night, and there has been no abnormality."
"Until I broke through to Great Luo some time ago, I felt uneasy in my heart, always feeling that something major was about to happen."
"After weighing the pros and cons, I came to East Western Kunlun, willing to offer this River Chart to you, Fellow Daoist, hoping to get your help!"
"So that's how it is." Xuanqing nodded gently, noncommittal.
This is truly a stroke of fate.
However...
"This River Chart of yours is fake." Xuanqing said so.
Bingyi was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Xuanqing in a panic: "Fellow Daoist, every word I said is true, I dare not deceive you!"
"I have also refined this River Chart, it really is a top-grade innate spiritual treasure."
Xuanqing shook his head: "Being a true innate spiritual treasure does not mean it is a true River Chart."
Bingyi heard this and instantly reacted: "Refining the fake into the real!"
"Indeed."
Bingyi looked at the River Chart in the air, feeling extremely fearful.
Pangu's axe is indeed a pit!
Sitting at home, treasures come from the sky; such fate is simply unbelievable.
Coming to East Western Kunlun was the right choice.
Xuanqing looked at the River Chart, deducing the origin of this object in his heart.
Zhihe Chart, logically speaking, is a spiritual treasure that goes with the "Luo Book," and the two combined are a supreme innate spiritual treasure.
Xuanqing once thought this set of spiritual treasures was on the Sun Star.
Later he found out it wasn't.
He had never seen Di Jun use it.
"Why did you choose to come to East Western Kunlun, Fellow Daoist?" Xuanqing asked; he and Bingyi had never had any interaction.
"Because I believe in Pangu."
Bingyi looked at Xuanqing quite earnestly: "Pangu's one Qi transformed into the Three Pure Ones; you, Fellow Daoist, are the orthodox Pangu, famous throughout the heavens, with extraordinary strength."
"I consider the karma on my body to be quite significant, and among the divinities I know, I'm afraid none can bear it, so I only came to East Western Kunlun to try my luck."
Xuanqing laughed.
I didn't expect the name of orthodox Pangu to have this effect?
