The ancient and grand Taiyi Hall welcomed thousands of guests today.
The eight golden dragons supporting the dome of the hall shone with golden light at the same time, illuminating the empty hall with golden splendor.
The layered golden light was divided into areas, and the names of various sects were written on the areas.
There are thousands of sects with formal inheritance in Zhongzhou, and these sects will receive invitations from the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly to participate in the discussion of Dharma.
Even if each sect only has ten places, there are still tens of thousands of people.
In top sects like the Shiku Temple, there are hundreds of people attending the Dharma Assembly.
The Sanyuan Dharma Assembly will be held for one hundred days, during which time all sects can take the stage to preach and discuss the Dharma.
Of course, only earthly immortals are qualified to preach the Dharma.
Practitioners below the level of Earthly Immortals go on stage to compete and learn from each other, using their Taoist magic to determine who is better and to hone their own cultivation.
Generally speaking, strong people at the Earth Immortal level would not go on stage to compete.
Generally speaking, the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly is actually to strengthen exchanges among various sects and cultivate a new generation of practitioners.
This is also the purpose of Diyuan Daojun's creation of the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly.
Li Xiulian dragged Yue Honglian around the hall, mainly to visit the various sects.
It was the first time for both of them to attend the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly, and the first time to see practitioners from so many sects, and they were all very excited.
Because Li Xiulian didn't quite understand, she also dragged the White Ape into the discussion this time.
Although White Ape Lord is a demon king of earthly immortal level, he has been living in the Azure Lotus Sword Sect for these years. But he spends most of his time running around in Zhongzhou.
The White Ape Lord has a high level of cultivation, and there are only a handful of earthly immortals who are stronger than him. These powerful earthly immortals all know that the White Ape Lord is Yuan Qinglian's friend, and that beating a monkey also depends on the owner.
Therefore, White Ape was like a fish in water in Zhongzhou, making friends everywhere and fighting everywhere.
The Sanyuan Dharma Assembly is so lively, of course Lord White Ape will not miss it.
Yue Honglian is the youngest, has a somewhat erratic personality, and is highly skilled in swordsmanship. She often interacts with the White Ape.
This time, I will bring Lord Bai Yuan along and ask him to help introduce these sects.
Lord White Ape has been in Zhongzhou for thousands of years and is very familiar with the situations of the major sects.
He was also willing to join in the fun with Yue Honglian.
"See? Those women in colorful clothes look like butterflies. They are the Butterfly Immortal Sect. These women have fancy spells. Just be careful of their incense. The real powerful one is their leader, Fairy Mengdie. Her psychedelic dreamland can turn the virtual into the real. She is very powerful. She is not much worse than your master. She is very powerful...
"The one holding the black banner is the Xuanyin Sect, a group of people who play with ghosts, no good. The one wearing the gold and silver headband is the Tianxing Sect, although it is a Buddhist sect, it is the most aggressive.
"The guys riding the flying tigers, the Beast Taming Sect. The Insects Sect that plays with insects, the Blood Sword Sect that carries long swords, the Jueqing Mansion that has a group of seductive women..."
Mr. White Ape is indeed knowledgeable and there is nothing he doesn't know.
With the explanation of Master Bai Yuan, Li Xiu Lian and Yue Hong Lian had a very intuitive understanding of this group of unfamiliar cultivators.
Yue Honglian asked curiously: "Lao Bai, there are so many sects in Zhongzhou, are there any famous geniuses?"
The White Ape chuckled and said, "As for geniuses, there are always some. Hua Feiye, Lu Buqun, Ye Changming, Tianxiang Jian, etc., are all extremely outstanding geniuses in the past few thousand years. It is generally believed that they will become earthly immortals."
"that's it?"
Yue Honglian was a little disappointed: "I haven't heard of any of them. Besides, it doesn't take a lot of genius to achieve earthly immortality, right?"
"Ha ha ha ha… "
The White Ape laughed loudly: "Girl, your words have offended countless cultivators. There are billions of cultivators in the world, but there are only a few thousand earthly immortals. If even those who have achieved the Dao of earthly immortals are not considered geniuses, then what else can be called a genius?"
Yue Honglian also felt that she had not expressed herself clearly. Indeed, the Earth Immortals were the strongest among billions of living beings, and their wisdom, abilities, and character were all top-notch.
However, she felt that only those who had the opportunity to reach the same position as her master could be called geniuses.
Many people around heard the conversation between the two people, and some of them looked at Yue Honglian with something strange in their eyes.
However, when this group of cultivators saw the Green Lotus emblem on Yue Honglian's sword robe, they immediately withdrew their gazes and their facial expressions immediately adjusted.
Di Yuan Dao Jun might be the best in the world, but the most difficult person to mess with in the world is undoubtedly Yuan Qinglian. Moreover, Yuan Qinglian is notoriously unreasonable.
All cultivators who attend the Dharma Assembly will be repeatedly reminded by their teachers that they must not provoke the Qinglian Sword Sect.
After discovering Yue Honglian’s true identity, no one dared to express their true feelings anymore.
Yue Honglian curled her lips, looking down on these cultivators. They were so cowardly and timid, what was the point of practicing Taoism
Li Xiulian pulled Yue Honglian and signaled her to be careful with her words and actions and not to be too sharp.
Although the Qinglian Sword Sect is not afraid of trouble, there is no need for them to act too tough.
After all, it was the Three Yuan Dharma Assembly, and all the cultivators from the Zhongzhou sects gathered here. He acted too domineeringly, and everyone dared not say anything on the surface, but after returning, they could not help but speak ill of the Qinglian Sword Sect.
Now the reputation of Qinglian Sword Sect is not very good. Everyone thinks that Qinglian Sword Sect is unreasonable. In fact, Qinglian Sword Sect never bullies others by taking advantage of its power.
Li Xiulian felt that she needed to take action to dispel the misunderstandings of outsiders about them. She also said to Yue Honglian: "We are all fellow Taoists, there is no need to be like this."
The White Ape bared his teeth and laughed: "Why bother with these trash? Billions of cultivators, if they can't become earthly immortals, they are just ants. Sooner or later, these cultivators will turn into ashes in the course of time, leaving no trace behind..."
Li Xiulian remained silent. What Bai Yuangong said was correct, but it sounded so unpleasant to her ears.
As Yuan Qinglian's direct disciple, although Li Xiu Lian also has extraordinary talent, she is far behind Yue Honglian.
Of course Yue Honglian could surely achieve the status of an earthly immortal, but she might not.
Lord White Ape knew what Li Xiulian was thinking. He said nonchalantly, "You have been practicing for less than three thousand years. Why are you in such a hurry? Although the way of the sword emphasizes sharpness, it also takes time to accumulate strength. With your talent and the support of Lord Qinglian, it will not be difficult for you to achieve enlightenment."
Yue Honglian also hurried to comfort Li Xiulian. In addition to practicing with Yuan Qinglian, she was also the closest to Li Xiulian. Li Xiulian was like her own sister.
Li Xiu Lian smiled. She also suddenly felt something, but she was not really sad or anxious about it.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw a commotion in the crowd in the distance. Then a group of monks in khaki robes came over from the crowd.
The leader was a young female monk with delicate features and a gentle expression. This woman stood in the front and center, and was obviously the most senior among the group.
Li Xiulian recognized the other party as a disciple of the Ten Suffering Sect, but did not recognize the leading woman.
She asked White Ape in surprise, "Who is that? Why are Yuan Xiang and Kong Xiang standing beside her? Like the moon surrounded by stars."
The Heaven Eye Dharma King Yuan Xiang and the True Emptiness Dharma King Kong Xiang are both the Ten Dharma Kings of the Ten Suffering Sect. In the Ten Suffering Sect, only the Ten Suffering Bodhisattvas have a higher status than them. This woman is so young, but her status and position seem to be higher than these two.
The White Ape squinted his old eyes and looked at it, "This is King Kong's golden appearance."
He had never seen Jin Xiang, but he had heard of his name. He guessed the woman's identity as soon as he saw her.
This is actually easy to guess, after all, there are very few female disciples in the Ten Bitterness Sect. The only one who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Kongxiang Yuanxiang is Jinxiang.
It's just that Jin Xiang is known as the King Kong, but he doesn't look tough at all. Instead, he has a gentle and soft temperament, without any momentum or edge.
“She is Jin Sang!”
Yue Honglian looked at the other person deeply, but couldn't see anything.
Yuan Qinglian mentioned Jin Xiang's name to her twice, and promised to make him the best among the younger generation in this world. Yue Honglian didn't say anything at the time, but she was very dissatisfied in her heart.
Although Jin Xiang is an earthly immortal, he is only one step ahead. It is too early to say that the younger generation is the first. Even if Jin Xiang is the reincarnation of a great being from the upper realm!
Yue Honglian is very aggressive and doesn't care about any of this.
Li Xiulian was also surprised: "I heard that she has already attained the status of a terrestrial immortal. She is really amazing. But you can't tell from her appearance."
"What an amazing gold phase. Back to the original nature, the aura is condensed to the extreme."
The White Ape Lord sighed and said, "No wonder he can fight against Gao Xuan."
"She fought with Gao Xuan? She didn't die. She's amazing."
Li Xiulian was even more surprised. Over the past thousand years, Gao Xuan had been famous in Zhongzhou. Especially for the fact that Gao Xuan had killed many demon kings with extremely brutal means.
Even her master had repeatedly reminded them that Gao Xuan had extraordinary supernatural powers and was not someone they could afford to offend.
The fact that Jin Xiang was able to fight Gao Xuan and survived without being killed also proves how strong Jin Xiang is.
The White Ape said unconvincedly, "I also fought with Gao Xuan, and I was not beaten to death."
Yue Honglian became interested: "What kind of person is Gao Xuan? How does he compare to Master?"
She had heard many people talk about how cruel Gao Xuan was, but she didn't have any direct impression of this person. She just felt that he was very powerful. She didn't know that Bai Yuangong had dealt with Gao Xuan.
Lord White Ape snorted, "Gao Xuan is cruel by nature, how can he compare with Sword Master?"
Yue Honglian was very dissatisfied with this answer: "Lao Bai, I mean, what does Gao Xuan look like, what magical powers does he have, and what level is he among the earthly immortals?"
She had always heard that Gao Xuan had an extraordinary demeanor, and everyone who met him would be impressed by his grace and demeanor.
This statement was so exaggerated that she couldn't believe it, but it also made her very curious.
It’s just that Bahuang is too far away, otherwise she really wants to go and see what Gao Xuan looks like.
"Humph, that guy's appearance is very deceptive. Especially female cultivators like you, you must be careful. Don't be fooled by Gao Xuan's appearance."
The White Ape was full of resentment towards Gao Xuan, so of course he would not say anything good about Gao Xuan. But he also didn't want to belittle Gao Xuan too much.
He thought for a moment and said, "Gao Xuan is definitely the top-notch earthly immortal in the world, and he is only slightly inferior to Sword Master."
In fact, Lord White Ape couldn’t explain how powerful Gao Xuan was, but he just knew that he was really powerful.
Such a high level was beyond his understanding. It was difficult for him to make an accurate evaluation. On the other hand, he did not want to brag about Gao Xuan. It was vague to speak of it.
“It’s the same as not saying anything.”
Yue Honglian was a little dissatisfied. What Bai Yuangong said was all nonsense. She pulled Li Xiulian and said, "Let's go back. The senior sisters and brothers are here too."
As the top sect, the Qinglian Sword Sect has allocated a large area in the best location.
In fact, there are only tens of thousands of disciples in the Qinglian Sword Sect, and the real core members are only dozens of people.
There were only about 200 disciples participating in this sword meeting. The leader was Qin Feilian, who was also a famous great swordsman, and his swordsmanship was second only to Yuan Qinglian.
The light and shadow cast by the golden dragon not only divided the area, but also turned into tables and chairs. There were many spiritual fruits on the tables for people to eat.
Qin Feilian was a middle-aged woman with a stern face. She sat in the first seat, and the other young disciples sat down in order of seniority. No one dared to speak carelessly.
Seeing Yue Honglian coming over, Qin Feilian's serious expression eased a bit, "Honglian, Xiulian, you just sit next to me."
Yuan Qinglian has seven earthly immortal level disciples, all of whom have important tasks to perform. Only Qin Feilian has time to bring people to the Dharma Assembly.
Qin Feilian knew that his master valued Yue Honglian very much, so of course he had to take better care of her. Although Li Xiulian was slightly less talented, she had a kind personality, and Qin Feilian had a good impression of her.
As for the White Ape, Qin Feilian didn't like him very much. Although this monkey was a terrestrial immortal, he liked to stir up trouble everywhere and was very worrying.
Lord White Ape also knew that he was not well-received. He bared his teeth and bowed to Qin Feilian: "Fellow Daoist Qin, thank you for your hard work."
Qin Feilian said calmly: "Friend Bai, just sit down by yourself, I won't greet you."
"No, no, we are all family. Why be so polite?"
The White Ape was the most shameless person, so he didn't care about this. He sat next to Yue Honglian with a smile.
Yue Honglian didn't dislike White Ape. She still felt uncomfortable being with the senior sister. It was much better with the talkative White Ape.
Yue Honglian had originally thought well, she just sat there chatting with White Ape and watching the fun, but she soon realized she was wrong.
All major sects of cultivators would come to visit and greet each other, and there were endless waves of guests.
Every time there are guests, Qin Feilian will introduce Yue Honglian to them.
Yue Honglian was still young and had no experience in socializing and being polite. Facing waves of guests, she could only try to smile.
There are thousands of sects participating in the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly. Even if only a small number of sects come to make friends, there is no time to rest.
Yue Honglian secretly groaned, but could not leave. She could only grit her teeth and endure.
Fortunately, there was the White Ape Lord beside us, who would occasionally introduce the guests' backgrounds and personalities, so it wasn't too boring.
The White Ape suddenly reminded Yue Honglian, "Did you see that? It's Hua Feiye, Ye Changming, Tian Xiangzi, Lu Buqun..."
Yue Honglian looked in the direction indicated by Lord White Ape, and sure enough, she saw a group of young men of extraordinary bearing coming together.
The woman leading the group wore a purple dress. She seemed extremely beautiful, dignified, and cold. Her facial features did not change at all, but her temperament and expression seemed to be constantly changing. It was hard to understand.
"The Dream Butterfly Fairy is a powerful figure. Don't stare at her, or you'll fall into her butterfly dream world..."
The White Ape reminded Yue Honglian not to stare at Fairy Mengdie.
In fact, many people are like this. The more they can't see clearly, the more they want to see. As a result, they fall into the path of the Dream Butterfly Fairy.
He whispered again: "Appearance is determined by the heart. What the Fairy Mengdie looks like is all your imagination. It's not real."
"The old monkey is saying bad things about me again..."
The Fairy Mengdie had already arrived, and she teased the White Ape with a smile.
The White Ape was fearless, but he had suffered a great loss at the hands of the Fairy Mengdie. He was still afraid of her. He hurriedly bowed and said, "The old monkey just likes to talk nonsense, please don't blame me, Fairy."
Qin Feilian also said: "Brother Bai just talks too much, fairy, don't bother with him."
With Qin Feilian speaking, Fairy Mengdie could no longer embarrass Prince Baiyuan. She smiled at Qin Feilian and said, "The last time I met Fellow Daoist Feilian was tens of thousands of years ago. Fellow Daoist has made great progress in his cultivation. I am glad to hear that."
"Thank you for the compliment, fairy."
Qin Feilian was very polite. This Fairy Mengdie had a mysterious origin and profound cultivation. Even her master did not dare to underestimate her. Of course, she did not dare to be careless.
The two strong men exchanged greetings, and the people around them had no right to interrupt. They just listened with a smile on their faces and nodded in agreement from time to time.
After some pleasantries, Fairy Mengdie introduced Hua Feiye and other geniuses one by one.
Hua Feiye is a disciple of Fairy Mengdie, with a beautiful appearance and a soft voice. There are many female cultivators participating in the Sanyuan Dharma Assembly. Hua Feiye's appearance can be said to be the best.
Tian Xiangzi is also a female cultivator. She covered her face and was covered with a white veil that looked like mist, which made her look extremely mysterious. She also spoke the least. This person looked very similar to Fairy Mengdie, but she was a disciple of Xuanyin Sect.
Ye Changming is the disciple of Lord Polaris. He is handsome and has a cold personality.
Lu Buqun is a disciple of Tianyue Sect. He is good at speaking and very humorous and interesting.
Yue Honglian didn't care much about the geniuses at first, but after chatting with them for a while, she found this group of people quite interesting.
These people were not much different in age from her, and were highly regarded in their respective sects. They could be said to be the pride of their respective sects.
Everyone is proud and arrogant, but they also have their own temperament, and their words and actions are very measured.
Being together with peers like Yue Honglian also stimulated her competitive spirit.
In fact, none of the people were convinced by the other, and after a few words, they started discussing the law.
"Will Fellow Daoist Honglian go on stage?" Tian Xiangzi suddenly asked.
Yue Honglian had no intention of going on stage, but when asked this question, she was unwilling to show weakness: "My cultivation is shallow, and I have such a precious opportunity, so of course I must go on stage to learn from the world's cultivators."
She then asked Tian Xiangzi: "Do you guys want to go on stage?"
Without waiting for Tian Xiangzi to answer, she added: "We are all of the same generation and we need to communicate more."
Tian Xiangzi showed a vague smile behind her veil: "Fellow Daoist Hong Lian has great sword skills. I also want to learn more from you."
Ye Changming and Lu Buqun also expressed their desire to go on stage to compete and exchange ideas, and everyone communicated in a friendly manner.
Lord White Ape was watching the lively conversation of several young cultivators from the sidelines, and he was secretly amused.
The young cultivators' open and covert fighting is actually a bit childish, but very energetic.
If nothing unexpected happens, these next generation people will become first-rate earthly immortals and the backbone of the Yuantian Realm.
Among these people, Yue Honglian has the best talent. She may even have a chance to become a peerless swordsman in the future. Of course, she can never reach the level of Yuan Qinglian.
A strong person like Yuan Qinglian has a very strong innate foundation. This kind of talent is something that Yue Honglian and others can never reach.
Including the Earthly Taoist Lord and the Ten Suffering Bodhisattvas, they all have their origins and roots, so they can occupy the top position.
The innate gap means that other practitioners will never have the opportunity to reach the ultimate realm.
Just as Bai Yuan Gongzheng was thinking, he saw Yuan Xiang and Jin Xiang coming towards him. He was slightly surprised when he glanced at Jin Xiang.
Observing Jin Xiang closely, he still couldn't sense the power in Jin Xiang. This showed that the gap between the two sides was too big.
"It is said that Jin Xiang is the reincarnation of a great being from the upper realm. His foundation is indeed extraordinary. Although Yue Honglian and the others are strong, they are really no match for him. It seems that this generation will respect Jin Xiang as the most respected..."
Not only Bai Yuangong thought so, Qin Feilian and Mengdie Fairy also sensed the unfathomable power of Jin Xiang. What was really scary was that Jin Xiang could completely control these powers and reach the state of returning to nature.
In this regard, Jin Xiang has actually stood at the top of this world, and is even not inferior to a strong man like Yuan Qinglian.
Many of the powerful people present were obviously inferior to Jin Xiang.
Although Fairy Mengdie, Qin Feilian and other strong men remained expressionless on their faces, they were extremely alert in their hearts.
The Bodhisattva of Ten Sufferings loves to stir up trouble the most. Now that he has such a powerful and extraordinary warrior as his disciple, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble in the future.
Jin Xiang didn't say anything either, he just stood quietly behind Yuan Xiang, gentle, soft and calm like water.
But she just stood there and suppressed everyone's momentum.
Arrogant geniuses like Yue Honglian and Hua Feiye all felt a huge pressure when facing Jin Xiang. They also lost interest in talking.
For a moment, everyone fell silent.
Yuan Xiang smiled with great pride, but said nothing. He just brought Jin Xiang here to show off and let these sect practitioners know how powerful his junior brother is.
With Jin Xiang around, no one can jump around.
The abnormal silence also made the situation a bit awkward.
Qin Feilian and Fairy Mengdie wanted to speak several times, but facing the calm Jin Xiang, all their words seemed too weak.
They had to admit that Jin was much taller than them. This difference in strength made all the strategies and techniques meaningless.
The two earthly immortals felt very uncomfortable, but they were no match for others, and nothing they said would be of any use.
Looking at the smile on Yuan Xiang's face, the two powerful earth immortals were disgusted. Could this guy smile any more proudly
At this moment, Jin Xiang, who had been calm as water, suddenly frowned slightly, and there were some ripples in his eyes.
Jin Xiang had been suppressing everyone, but with a slight change in her mood, that calm, majestic and endless aura dissipated.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although Jin Xiang was strong, he was not so strong that he had no flaws. This was not the reason for the emotional fluctuations.
Yuan Xiang was very surprised and didn't understand why Jin Xiang suddenly lost his composure. Even if it was just a small change of emotion, it shouldn't be revealed in front of so many strong people and geniuses.
"After all, she is a spiritual being with changing emotions. We can fight!"
Hua Feiye used his divine sense to speak to Yue Honglian and other new friends. This was actually to encourage himself.
Lu Buqun also said: "That's right, she just took the lead. Today, it seems that she is still too immature after all."
Tian Xiangzi also nodded in agreement.
Before, they were fighting openly and secretly, but after meeting Jin Xiang, they all felt tremendous pressure and naturally united together.
Yue Honglian's eyes sparkled: "With Jin Xiang standing in front of me, my goal is immediately clear."
Several geniuses nodded, Yue Honglian's words touched their hearts.
Yuan Xiang didn't pay attention to what the kids were muttering. He asked Jin Xiang in confusion, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"Gao Xuan is here."
When Jin Xiang mentioned Gao Xuan's name, his eyes became more complicated.
Yuan Xiang was surprised at first, then delighted: "He actually dared to come, he actually came!"
The two people did not avoid others when they were communicating, and Qin Feilian and others could hear it clearly.
Hearing Gao Xuan's name, the two earthly immortals were also surprised.
Yue Honglian and other geniuses were even more curious. Gao Xuan actually came to participate in the Dharma Assembly? This man is really not afraid of death!
They were very excited and didn't know what Gao Xuan looked like. Today they just happened to see his true appearance.
At this time, a commotion suddenly broke out in the hall. The noise spread wider and wider, but it became weaker and weaker. In the end, there was no sound anymore.
The dense crowd in the hall kept parting to both sides, and a Taoist priest came with two maids.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on that Taoist.
The Taoist had an extremely handsome face, and his demeanor was as pure as water and as noble as the moon. Under the gazes of thousands of cultivators, the Taoist appeared to be more and more elegant and calm.
Yue Honglian stared at the Taoist's face, and couldn't help but think of a sentence in her heart: "You are like the bright moon, and I am like a firefly..."
