Chapter 200: [Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly, Karma Gathering] (Happy New Year)

Master Qingquan was clearly in a good mood, and he said with a smile:

"It just so happens that you are all here today, so I will say it directly. Three months from now, the Heavenly Emperor Palace Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly will be officially held. All Golden Immortals and their disciples in the world can attend, taste immortal wine and spirit fruits, and discuss the Dao with the immortals of the world.

You should all have time. By then, follow me. The good things there will also be helpful for the improvement of your cultivation."

Lu Runping was also somewhat happy upon hearing this. Joining an immortal sect, there was such a good thing, and he could go to eat at a banquet—this was the thing he liked the most.

"Yes!"

Several Senior and Junior Brothers agreed together upon hearing this.

Their own affairs were nothing more than things done for the improvement of cultivation, and going this time, the good things they would eat would be worth their own cultivation of tens or hundreds of years; why not do it?

Three months passed quickly, and Lu Runping followed Master Qingquan to the Eighth Heaven, the Shangqing Da Chi Heaven.

The range of the Jiuchongtian was wider with each layer. The Jiuchongtian was the Daluo Tian, meaning infinite extension—that is, the world outside the Eighth Heaven, from the edge of the infinite universe to the core here, was the range of the Daluo Tian.

The Daluo Tian was the place to confront the extraterrestrial demons; the vast majority of extraterrestrial demons were blocked in the Daluo Tian, that is, outside the Eighth Heaven.

In the Eighth Heaven were the top-tier forces of this world, that is, those few forces possessing Immortal Venerable-level existences.

The Heavenly Emperor Palace was representative.

In the Heavenly Emperor Palace, there were the Heavenly Emperors of the East, South, West, North, and Center, all of whom were top-tier cultivators at the Immortal Venerable level, jumping out of the reincarnation of this world, not restrained by space and time, standing above the rules.

However, among the five Heavenly Emperors, four were guarding the four directions, and only one, the Central Jade Emperor Supreme Heavenly Emperor, would appear in the Lingxiao Precious Hall of the Heavenly Emperor Palace to discuss the Dao with the group of immortals and preside over major events.

This banquet would also be attended by the Central Heavenly Emperor.

Arriving at the Heavenly Gate, a golden dragon-patterned invitation card automatically appeared above Master Qingquan's head, and this invitation card recorded the names of the few people in Lu Runping's sect, and there was also a golden silk thread connecting them.

Lu Runping perceived that this was a kind of means similar to the 【Star-Patterned Chessboard】 supernatural power he had used before, using the aura of a cultivator as the object of connection, interacting with each other.

After the invitation card entered the Heavenly Gate, it seemed to disappear, but in reality, it was classified into a total "monitoring system." All immortals entering the Heavenly Palace, no matter where they went, would be recorded.

It's just that I don't know, if I release an external avatar, how would you deal with it?

Not long after flying into the Heavenly Gate, they heard Master Qingquan smile:

"Fellow Daoist Jinshi, all is well!"

Lu Runping looked over and saw a round, white-bearded old man leading a boy who also had a big belly and looked about ten years old, flying in front.

Hearing Master Qingquan's call, that person turned his head and said with a smile:

"So it's Master Qingquan. You've accepted another disciple; congratulations, congratulations!"

"Haha, you're still the same, just feeding Yuan Tong alone. Look at what he's been fed into!"

Master Qingquan joked.

Daoist Jinshi also followed with two haha laughs.

"My cultivation method has this characteristic; I didn't force him to eat, he couldn't help himself!"

At this time, Ji Ziyou, as a junior, interjected:

"Senior's cultivation method is just like that demonic art, actually unable to let people control their own desires."

Daoist Jinshi was clearly an old friend of Master Qingquan for many years and also knew Ji Ziyou, so he wasn't angry at these words, but instead said with a smile:

"Following the natural Heavenly Dao is the Great Dao itself; where does the saying of demonic art come from? Demons are products that violate the natural Heavenly Dao and go to extremes. Extraterrestrial demons are like this, and the demons of the Dixian Jie are also like this."

Lu Runping was lost in thought upon hearing this. He knew very little about demons. After all, he was the ancestor of the pure moral cultivation Lu Family Immortal Clan, and also a person with very high moral requirements for himself. He had long since stopped digging up people's ancestral graves.

It could be said to be a model of turning over a new leaf!

Therefore, he knew very little about demons. If he encountered a battle with demons in the future, he might have some trouble.

If possible, find an opportunity to understand it.

After all, perhaps there would be a need for role-playing in the future.

Daoist Jinshi finished talking about demons and turned the topic back to Lu Runping, smiling:

"This new disciple of yours is not simple! There is a great luck in the dark, yet it cannot be seen through. Now he is only an Upper Cave True Immortal; in the future, he will certainly be able to achieve the Golden Core realm. Taiyi is not the end, and the Daluo Dao is promising. You must not mislead others."

Master Qingquan didn't care at all upon hearing this and waved his hand, saying:

"A master-disciple fate, leading them into the door is my duty. As for what achievements they have later, it depends on their own choices. I am only a Taiyi Golden Immortal of the lower three layers, who can I influence? Being happy myself is the most important thing."

The two chatted until here and didn't continue. If they delved deeper, they would probably have to ask about Lu Runping's roots, which would be troublesome.

Although the identity of Lü Gong was still "clean," the time since ascension could indeed reveal problems.

However, these two were clearly not the kind of people who liked to meddle in other people's business. Although Lu Runping was Master Qingquan's disciple, he didn't want to get to the bottom of it. This master lived very freely; no wonder he could accept several disciples with their own characteristics.

Throughout the whole process, Lu Runping didn't take the initiative to say anything.

He had too many secrets. Except for himself, if anyone else knew, it could cause huge trouble.

The group arrived at the Tian Chi of the Heavenly Palace. This was the most valuable pool in the entire Dixian Jie. The water inside was a kind of immortal qi spirit liquid. If you caught a fish from the lower realm and put it in, it could become an immortal.

Of course, this kind of immortal was not a True Immortal, but a kind of thing equivalent to an immortal-level puppet, not even having higher combat power than a Land Immortal.

Above the Tian Chi, there were many lotus leaves floating.

On the huge lotus leaves, each was placed with a meditation cushion and a small table. One person, one leaf—the lotus leaves connecting to the sky were infinitely green; this was the scene.

Quite a few people were already sitting here.

The Dixian Jie had the saying of three hundred Daluo and three thousand Taiyi. These Golden Immortals constituted the upper echelons of the entire Dixian Jie.

Each of them brought three or five disciples to attend, so even if not all Golden Immortals came, they could still gather ten thousand immortals.

The group of immortals took their seats, various auras mixed. Daluo sat in the front, the lower the cultivation, the lower the status, and the place they sat was further away from the central position.

Lu Runping was just here to join in the fun and incidentally obtain some high-level cultivation resources, and didn't want to reveal himself, so he waited very quietly, waiting for everyone to arrive, for the true Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly to begin, and for the Central Heavenly Emperor to appear.

The majesty of an Immortal Venerable-level existence was very strong. True Immortal realm cultivators couldn't look directly at them, so everyone was bowing their heads, chest out, at least possessing Mysterious Immortal realm cultivation.

After the leader finished the speech, the banquet began.

This was the segment Lu Runping was looking forward to the most, and the banquet of this Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly didn't disappoint him.

Immortal wine and spirit liquid—this was his first time drinking it. This wine called "Earth Willow River" was mellow and fragrant. Drinking one sip, he was drunk for the entire spring and autumn.

This thing had a great aftereffect. The drunken state could significantly improve the efficiency of comprehending the Dao, especially for True Immortal realm cultivators, the speed of condensing magic power Dao Rhymes was significantly accelerated.

Immortal-grade spirit fruits—Lu Runping also ate them for the first time.

These things were all grown from legendary heaven and earth spirit roots, which couldn't be seen in the lower realm. Whether it was crystal ice pears or mysterious jade grapes, etc., each kind could improve comprehension and magic power cultivation.

However, they all had a time limit.

They had the greatest effect on True Immortal realm cultivators. Of course, if given to the lower realm, each kind would lead to a bloody battle.

After all, eating one could possibly lead directly from the Golden Core realm to the perfection of the Enlightenment realm.

The immortal spirit power contained within was enough for a lower realm cultivator to use until achieving the position of Land Immortal.

But the upper and lower realms were separated, and even within the Dixian Jie, the vast majority of living beings didn't know of the existence of such things.

Levels were a necessary condition for the existence of order!

Clear level division could effectively reduce death and chaos.

Immortals not being able to go to the lower realm at will was a very good way of protection.

Eating fine wine and delicacies, and also being able to improve cultivation—why not do it?

If these few days were always at this specification of treatment, at the very least, it would save thirty or fifty years of cultivation.

This was Lu Runping's thirty or fifty years of cultivation. His cultivation speed was at least four or five times that of ordinary cultivators. Converted, it was equivalent to saving other cultivators about two hundred years of cultivation time consumption.

No wonder everyone came so actively.

But when there were many people, things would happen.

Immortals were also like this.

Cultivating in the deep mountains and old forests is precisely to avoid the crowds and minimize karmic entanglement, yet this Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering is like a collection point for karma—it cannot be avoided.

Especially when discussing the Dao.

Cultivators discussing the Dao was not just a matter of arguing about length, but related to their own Dao heart and Dao Fruit. Failing to discuss the Dao could produce inner demons, which was extremely harmful.

Therefore, few people discussed the Dao, and more were seeking the Dao.

And those who discussed the Dao were mostly opposed, and the method adopted was to compete.

Discussing the Dao purely with words was instead the easiest to cause major chaos.

Of course, as long as one ignores minor conflicts, no karma will be incurred.

But some karma is already incurred long ago.

Two Taiyi Golden Immortal disciples not far from them had a conflict. One side had three people, while the other side had eight people.

But, on the side with eight people, all eight were True Immortals, while those three were all Mysterious Immortals.

When fighting, there would naturally be conflict.

Among the eight who were suppressed, several were seriously injured. Just when one of them was about to be hit again by a Mysterious Immortal from the other side, Lu Runping saw that person and immediately took action.

Although he only had the cultivation of an Upper Cave True Immortal, he was not afraid of Mysterious Immortals at all, because he had already obtained a Mysterious Immortal realm Dao Fruit and knew how strong the Mysterious Immortal realm was.

The attack he released was the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light carrying 【Taiyin True Water】!

Thank you all for your support over the past year, Happy New Year, and good luck in the Year of the Dragon! ===== CHAPTER 201 =====
