[Wuwu, Year of the Horse, 8th day of the twelfth lunar month]
Which is more terrifying, being used as a pawn or having your embarrassing experiences known to others
I thought about it carefully. The worst that could happen if I was used as a pawn would be death. At the same time, I could leave some innocence and reputation in the world. When future generations mention me, they would also praise me as a hero.
But if the embarrassing incident is known to others, it will be passed down from generation to generation as a joke...
I feel like I won’t be at peace even if I die. I will fight my way back from the underworld with my soul torn to pieces and kill everyone who knows about my embarrassing story.
In this way, I finally understood why my second junior brother Shi Xiaowu fainted and cried in the house for more than a month after hearing Li Shenzhi talk about his dream after he came out of seclusion.
A dignified Jindan Zhenren cried so much that he almost fainted several times and became possessed. Fortunately, Zhenjun Canghuo was guarding by his side and always helped him to regulate his breathing in time. He also kindly advised Shi Xiaowu to learn from Li Shenzhi.
As long as he doesn't feel ashamed, no one can make him ashamed.
Shi Xiaowu was still grateful to True Lord Canghuo, but he didn't know that it was True Lord Canghuo who was the most active when watching the play.
I seriously suspect that Master Canghuo is so "warm-hearted" just to record the follow-up of the incident.
Seeing Shi Xiaowu, I feel more open-minded. I have no fear of death. As long as I am not infamous, it is enough to live a glorious life!
Master said that I built my happiness on Shi Xiaowu's suffering. Humph, he is obviously a black-hearted person.
I don't know who asked Shi Xiaowu when he saw him, "Potian, I am heartbroken. Why do you think that two Yuanying can seriously injure me to the point of coma and death? Am I so useless in your heart?"
Then Li Shenzhi came up and added fuel to the fire, saying, "My heart aches for me, too. Why do you always let me be your foil?"
Poor Shi Xiaowu, luckily in his dream, I am still great, bright, just, unsurpassed, and an existence that can only be admired, otherwise I would have to go up and say, 'Potian, Senior Sister is heartbroken...'
Hahahaha, this must have been done on purpose by the troublemaker!
If I was defeated by Shi Xiaowu in Shi Xiaowu's dream, he would definitely feel embarrassed, so in Shi Xiaowu's dream, I have always been the goal that Shi Xiaowu could not surpass and always pursued.
Fortunately, Qi Yue felt sorry for Shi Xiaowu and asked him to go out with her to complete the mission, so that Shi Xiaowu could temporarily escape from the predicament. Judging from Qi Yue's appearance, I believe that their relationship will change when they come back this time.
Shi Xiaowu has "broken" this time and then rebuilt. In the future, both his cultivation and state of mind will surely reach a higher level.
It’s great. I still feel more relaxed and comfortable in the sect and on Tianku Peak.

[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, 15th day of the first lunar month]
The news of the Fuyao Fairy Meeting has spread throughout the spiritual world, and people in all parts of the spiritual world have been discussing this matter for some time.
Those who are not aware of the inside story wonder why the Tianyan Sect is inviting elites from various sects to compete on the same stage.
Those who know the inside story have already visited with gifts.
As a result, this winter, the Tianyan Sect was extremely bustling both inside and outside. Even the Nangu Market at the foot of the mountain was crowded with cultivators from all over the place and there was no room for them.
Fortunately, the master had made preparations in advance. Years ago, he ordered Qi Ming to bring the craftsmen from the sect to build large guest houses in various places in Qingyun Ridge.
Fortunately, Qi Yue, the eldest disciple of Bai Yan Zhenjun, and other puppet disciples under his tutelage were able to control the puppets to help with the construction, and Shi Xiaowu drew the blueprints, so that these guest houses could be built so quickly.
Qi Yue and Qi Ming always deliberately called Shi Xiaowu "Potian". Before, whenever Shi Xiaowu heard others call him "Potian", he would feel disordered and ashamed and angry, but when Qi Yue called him that, he would just giggle.
I also helped to make a lot of the Zhuge family's large-scale construction armor for cutting mountains and chiseling stones, and consolidating foundations. These novel armors made Qi Yue and Bai Yan Zhenjun very excited, and they all came to me for advice.
I kept it a secret on purpose, and asked them to go to the Zhuge family in Jiuhe Realm to ask for advice themselves when the time comes.
The preparations for the Fuyao Fairy Meeting are going on in an orderly manner. If things go well, it can officially begin at this time next year.

[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, June 20th]
Over the past six months, Jixiang has been practicing with Danggui and Qionglin Shanjun in the mountains every day. The place is in chaos and even the toad that used to sleep at the gate of Huaxi Valley has come out to watch the show.
In order to save his life, Jixiang, Danggui and Shanjun tried to catch Jixiang, and Toad wanted to watch the show better and closer, the cultivation of each of them has been steadily improving and the momentum is very good!
My master was busy dealing with various forces, and I couldn't help much, so I taught in the sect's Dharma Hall after my retreat.
In addition, I also applied for a piece of land on a peak and built a tower on the top of the peak with my own hands. From the bottom of the peak all the way to the top, from simple to difficult, from the first floor to the ninth floor of the tower, many large formations and mechanisms were arranged.
Just like when I taught with formations in the Zhuge family, as long as the Internal Affairs Hall remembers to maintain the core formation in this peak and does not disconnect it from the underground spiritual veins, all the formations can continue to operate.
In addition to my own core secret techniques and knowledge, this place also contains 90% of the knowledge I have acquired in the past eighty years of practicing Taoism. Whether it is to overcome obstacles, break formations, or solve puzzles, I can gain something from it.
I even left behind some of the best martial arts I had, such as "Xiao Yao You", my improved "White Dragon Spear Technique", "Spirit and Soul Thinking Method", and my own spells "Cloud Thunder Break", "Wind Net", "Dragon Killing", etc.
Since there is an innate thunder spirit under Lei Ze, I also left a treasure map and a method of entering the lake that I later figured out in the tower as an extra reward. In the future, any disciple who is proficient in thunder magic and passes the trial of the Five Thunder Array will be able to get it.
My master asked me to write an inscription for the tower. I thought about it and wrote the three words "Wangshu Tower" on the stone tablet under the tower.
Yes, I am uneducated, but I still covet a good reputation!
So we have to call them by this name to let everyone know that this is what I, Master Wangshu, left for them, and they must all be grateful to me!
I'll also harvest some of the incense and prayers from the disciples below to offset the karma I have.
I also set up the most powerful formation I could at the moment in Huaxi Valley, separated out an area, planted the Chaos Erosion Spirit Fruit in the Huaxi Valley, and let the chaotic energy in the lotus platform small world fill the surroundings.
I don’t know how long this chaotic energy can last, but at least it can make this Chaos Corrosion Fruit mature. After that, I have to leave it to fate.
In addition, I planted a batch of spiritual plants and seeds that I collected in the upper realm, including a piece of blood jade meat ganoderma.
Yun Shang is looking for someone who can take over the Spirit Beast Valley for her. When the time comes, she will teach that person how to grow the Blood Jade Ganoderma and refine the Blood Jade Pills.
During this period, I taught, farmed, and practiced. My life was leisurely and comfortable, as if I was back in my childhood, doing everything according to the routine.
Even though the cultivation panel is no longer there, I can still clearly feel the sense of accomplishment.

[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, August 1st]
Fang Ruyan, the leader of Feiyan Pavilion, wrote to me. She finally compromised and asked me to borrow the Phoenix True Fire to suppress the cold poison in her body.
I asked her to represent the Fang family to attend the Fuyao Fairy Meeting. Currently, those who come to visit the Tianyan Sect are all sect forces and second-rate immortal cultivation families.
The Kong and Fang families, as well as other forces that could be ranked among the top families, all tacitly did not show up.
As long as Fang Ruyan can come, she can break their alliance. By then, they will no longer be united internally and will be in disarray, and there will be nothing to be afraid of.
In general, the Tianyan Sect now has the overt support of the Guiyuan Sword Sect, as well as the backing of 99% of the sects. As long as the people from the upper realm do not intervene directly, the Tianyan Sect will not be in any danger in the Earthly Spirit Realm.
But those bastards from the Fang family don't play by the rules. The Fang family in the Earth Spirit Realm are no longer to be feared, but we have to be on guard against the ones in the Upper Realm.
Fang Ruyan is really something. She clearly had the ability to transform into a spirit and go to the upper realm, but she insisted on staying in the earthly spiritual world. If she really had ambitions, she should go to the upper realm and fight for the position of patriarch of the Fang family. This would solve the problem from the root.
Let me wait until I return to the upper realm and then think of a solution.

[Jiwei, Year of the Goat, 28th day of the twelfth lunar month]
The Fuyao Fairy Meeting is about to be held. Guanghan Jianjun was called back by his master last month. He was given instructions every day and was given instructions on various matters in the Tianyan Sect.
Ling Guanghan was such a calm and self-controlled person, but because of his nagging master, he became gloomy all day long, as if he was going to kill someone at the next moment.
True Lord Canghuo followed him around every day, mocking Ling Guanghan for being a useless swordsman who couldn't manage the sect well, and he thought it would be better for him to go to the upper realm to fight with him.
It was also because of the ridicule of True Lord Canghuo that Lord Guanghan Jian had to be patient and learn from his master how to manage the sect.
Guanghan Jianjun wanted to wait for Miaoyin, so after everyone left, Guanghan Jianjun would temporarily take over the position of the leader of Tianyan Sect.
I handed over all the sect-protecting treasures refined by Tianyan Sect's ancestor Lianxu and my own uncle Fuyi to Lord Guanghan Jian.
The master also made big promises to him, saying that he would find a suitable candidate as soon as possible and let him learn first.
But the most suitable Qi Ming has been taken away by the master, so where would the suitable candidate come from
Poor Guanghan Jianjun, he was still full of expectations and trust in his master.
…
[Gengshen, Year of the Monkey, February 2]
All the heroes gathered together, and the unprecedented grand Fuyao Fairy Meeting officially began.
The Guiyuan Sword Sect was led by Zhuo Qingfeng, and all eighteen monks from the Vajra Platform were also present. Kong Jingyan and Wen Jian, who had made an appointment with me before, also came as independent practitioners and had no other involvement behind the scenes.
Everything that should come and shouldn’t come has come.
But unfortunately, Shen Huaixi didn't come.
I only showed up with my master on the first day, and then announced to the public that I was in seclusion.
There were too many people who wanted to visit me and I couldn't handle it all. I was also afraid that favoring some over others would cause trouble for the Tianyan Sect, so I simply refused to see any of them.
As for Ge Yuchan, He Wangchen and the others, they can drink and chat together on the boat heading to the upper realm, and there is no need to rush.
It just so happens that among the four skills obtained in the Kunxu Divine Palace, I have already mastered the human race's "Xiao Yao You".
Next I can start learning the Demon Clan’s “Water Strike Three Thousand”. I can’t wait to try the feeling of being hit by spiritual stones all over the sky.
This trip to the Earth Spirit Realm has come to an end. Once the Fuyao Fairy Meeting is successfully concluded, you can all follow me on a new journey.
In the spiritual world, I have done everything I should and shouldn't do. Except for the fact that Shen Huaixi never showed up, which made me feel a little regretful, I no longer have any reluctance to leave this world.
It's time to say goodbye to the spiritual world!
Next stop, Jiuhe Realm!
Next target, Qingyun Club!
