Immortal Mansion Royal Beast

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is the day of Fang Qingyuan's infant formation ceremony. At this time, only half a year has passed since Fang Qingyuan's tribulation.

The reason why it has to be held half a year later is to reserve time for the Yuanying ancestors of each family. Those who are traveling should rush back, and those who are on duty should ask for leave in advance. All of this is just for this day.

The misty fairy clouds were blowing gently, and the center of Qiyun Fairy City, the halfway point of Tianyuan Mountain, was extremely lively. Countless cultivators were assigned seats, and attendants were coming and going like flowing water. The Jindan cultivators who were rarely seen in the past were now seen in large numbers, and the foundation-building cultivators were the most common and could be seen everywhere.

The Infant Formation Ceremony, commonly known as the Ten Thousand Immortals Conference by lower-level people, has always been a major event in the world of cultivation, even for a sect of the Qiyun level.

And the monks who came to watch the ceremony today actually numbered about ten thousand. Among them, there were over three hundred Jindan monks, and the number of Yuanying monks exceeded one hundred. As for the foundation-building monks, they could only serve as background boards and no one cared about them.

In the newly built magnificent hall, Fang Qingyuan stood beside Tian Chang. Tian Chang would say a few words to every Nascent Soul cultivator who came to visit him, and then let Fang Qingyuan call them by their corresponding titles.

Call this one senior brother, call that one senior sister, this is your uncle, that is your aunt.

The Qiyun peaks alone contributed half of the Nascent Soul cultivators in the hall, about fifty in total. Among them was the current sect leader Lu Yunzi, and his two deputies, Lan Li and Cai Yuan, who were the next candidates for the sect leaders.

Tiandi Peak sent an old cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage, who called Tian Chang "senior brother".

In addition, the Law Enforcement Peak sent a Nascent Soul cultivator named Xing, who was a direct descendant of Patriarch Xing, to come with several Golden Core juniors to congratulate.

Each of the Five Elements Peaks sent a Nascent Soul cultivator, and the one sent by Water Elements Peak was the Patriarch of the Cao family. Fang Qingyuan was no stranger to this person.

In addition, Chuangong Peak, Qidong City, and Qinan City each sent Nascent Soul cultivators to congratulate. Among them, Fang Qingyuan only knew the cultivator from Qinan City, Nangong Meng.

These forces sent out more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators, but the largest number still came from the various peaks of Shuwu Peak. Among them, the aristocratic families of Qiyun, such as the Chi family, the Chen family, the Jiang family, the Pei family, the Wan family, the Gan family, the Hu family, the Zhou family, the Liu family, the Jiang family, and the Chu family all sent Nascent Soul cultivators to congratulate. In addition, there are two major clans, the Yan family and the Guo family.

Moreover, those families with better relationships, such as the Chu family, have three Nascent Souls, while those with less close relationships will also send one to show their support.

In addition to the aristocratic families, there were seven or eight Nascent Souls from humble backgrounds who did not have their own fourth-level spiritual lands and also came.

It can be said that for Tian Chang's sake, almost all forces in the Qiyun Sect sent people to congratulate him, except for the guardian of the seventh-level spiritual land secret realm.

However, the guardian of this seventh-level spiritual land has always acted low-key and secretive, and did not ask about Qi Yun's affairs, so it is normal that no one came.

Adding the four Nascent Soul cultivators under Tian Chang’s command, there are nearly fifty in total, and the remaining Nascent Soul cultivators come from the entire cultivation world.

The three academies within the sphere of influence of the Great Zhou Academy, namely Jixia City, Yangming Mountain, and Tianli Sect, each sent out three Nascent Soul cultivators to lead the team.

There are two from the Qinglian Sword Sect, and two from the Nanlin Temple. It is worth mentioning that the Black Wind Valley also sent a Nascent Soul cultivator, which is very rare.

If Tian Chang had not been present, the cultivators from the Black Wind Valley would have been besieged. Even so, the Nascent Soul of the Black Wind Valley stood alone in a corner of the hall, leaving a space around him empty.

Kurong Temple did not send any Nascent Soul cultivators, but only sent two Golden Core cultivators to deliver gifts. Fang Qingyuan guessed that this was probably done out of consideration for Jin Bao's face.

On the Beast Taming Sect's side, only Le Chuan came with his Nascent Soul companion beast. Xiong Feng did not come. In his words, it was not appropriate for him to come to such an occasion.

Because of the previous Jade Rabbit incident, the relationship between the Beast Taming Sect and the Qiyun Sect took a sharp turn for the worse, so apart from Lechuan, no other Nascent Soul cultivators came.

Many Nascent Souls from the remaining Nascent Soul sects within the Qiyun territory, as well as those from the Nascent Soul sects that left Qiyun and were established outside, also came, trying to make themselves known to Tian Chang.

The spiritual energy tide caused by hundreds of Nascent Soul cultivators gathering together is enough to move the celestial phenomena, but with Tian Chang in charge, these are not a problem.

After everyone had met each other, the scene soon became quiet. The most important part of this Infant Formation Ceremony had arrived, which was that Fang Qingyuan was going to expound his own path in public.

Faced with the numerous Nascent Souls of various sects in the entire cultivation world, everyone has his own interpretation of the Great Dao. If Fang Qingyuan's discussion of the Dao is empty and boring, it would be embarrassing. Not only would he be regarded as a fake and a reckless person in the future, but Tian Chang would also lose face.

Therefore, Fang Qingyuan decided to share some of his knowledge and use it to show off at such occasions in order to build momentum for his future academic status.

So after the chimes rang three times, Fang Qingyuan came to Tian Chang and said calmly to the scrutinizing eyes of the Yuanyings:

"When heaven and earth were first separated, chaos had not yet been determined. One Qi mixed together, and Yin and Yang had not yet separated. Tao gave birth to One, One gave birth to Two, Two gave birth to Three, and Three gave birth to all things. All things carry Yin and embrace Yang, and the rushing Qi makes them harmonious. The sky is clear because of One, the earth is peaceful because of One, the gods are spiritual because of One, the valley is full because of One, and all things are alive because of One."

As soon as these words came out, Fang Qingyuan's voice, which carried a hint of great truth, spread clearly throughout the Tianyuan Mountain. Some monks with low cultivation bases felt a flash before their eyes just by hearing these words, as if they were back at the beginning of the world.

Tian Chang in the back was surprised. Fang Qingyuan's opening statement was a bit too grand.

The same is true for other Nascent Soul cultivators. Fang Qingyuan's point is the beginning of heaven and earth. This is a realm that not everyone can touch. Among the one hundred Nascent Soul cultivators present, more than half only specialize in a certain subtle avenue. They have not yet reached this level of interpretation of the beginning of heaven and earth.

Fang Qingyuan had only just survived the heavenly tribulation, but he had already achieved such accomplishments. This was truly astonishing.

"In the beginning there was nothing, and in nothing there was the Tao. The Tao is hidden and nameless, eternal and ancient, and was created before the heaven and the earth. Only the Tao exists alone, silent and lonely, independent and unchanging, and it circulates without end. The Tao follows nature, it wins without fighting, responds without speaking, comes without being called, and is good at making plans."

With a loud bang, as if a bolt of lightning struck, Fang Qingyuan's explanation of the Great Dao, with the blessing of Fang Qingyuan's own magical power of Lihuan, was like a scroll slowly unfolding in front of everyone. This time, those Jindan cultivators were also attracted by this scene and immersed in it.

In the hall, all the Nascent Soul cultivators were moved. Some of them even closed their eyes and quietly comprehended what Fang Qingyuan said, trying to draw their own nourishment from it.

Nangong Meng's beautiful eyes lingered, Chu Hongshang curled her lips slightly, Chu Shentong showed joy, and Chu Wen raised his head to look at the sky.

Lechuan had a bewildered look on his face, but looking at the expressions of the crowd, he couldn't help but feel happy. A golden sable squatted on his shoulder, rolling its eyes.

What kind of bullshit is this? It's just nonsense. I'd rather eat a few more bowls of rice.

Tian Chang couldn't help but close his eyes. There were some truths in Fang Qingyuan's theory that he had never thought about before.

"The great way is extremely simple. Those who observe its wonders often have no desires in order to observe its wonders; those who observe its boundaries often have desires in order to observe its boundaries. These two things come from the same source but have different names. Both are called mysterious, and the more mysterious, the more mysterious. They are the door to all wonders, and all things enter and exit through them.

Therefore, the sage does not do anything, and teaches without words. He creates all things without saying anything, and gives birth to them without owning them. He does things without relying on them, and does not stay after they are accomplished. It is because he does not stay that he does not leave. The reason why the heaven and the earth can last long is that they do not create themselves, so they can live long.

Fang Qingyuan's voice was like the sound of a huge bell, deafening. Even several Nascent Soul cultivators within the influence of the Great Zhou Academy looked intoxicated.

As for the many Yuanying cultivators of the Qiyun Sect, they felt that Fang Qingyuan's discussion was in line with their own true meaning of the Great Dao. Thus, a ray of Yuanying Great Dao light passed through this hall and shot straight into the sky.

Teng, Teng, Teng. Seven or eight pillars of the true meaning of the Great Dao were erected high up. This allowed people in the entire Qiyun city to feel it.

In just a moment, more than a dozen truths of the great Dao responded one after another, echoing Fang Qingyuan's theory.

Fang Qingyuan's preaching lasted for three consecutive days. As Fang Qingyuan's narration deepened, the foundation-building cultivators on the periphery woke up sooner or later, depending on their cultivation level.

The same was true for those golden elixirs. Only a few of them could hold on until Fang Qingyuan finished his sermon.

As for the Nascent Soul cultivators in the hall, they slowly woke up after Fang Qingyuan finished his talk.

At this moment, Tian Chang had already left, and everyone looked at Fang Qingyuan, who was too young, with fiery eyes.

Many people showed happy expressions. Some people's realm, which had not been loosened for a long time, suddenly loosened their bottlenecks. Some people's Qi and energy increased sharply, and it was obvious that their cultivation had improved a lot.

At this moment, the way everyone looked at Fang Qingyuan was different from before.

If they had come here before just to give Tian Chang face, then now Fang Qingyuan had his own unique status in their eyes.

After the discussion, it is time for communication. Monks who have urgent matters to attend to can leave now.

But looking around, few cultivators were willing to leave early. They all surrounded Fang Qingyuan, trying to ask questions about the doubts in their hearts.

Fang Qingyuan picked out a few to answer in response to the questions from the Nascent Soul cultivators, but his answers were not complete. This was a way of hiding his incompetence. His previous theory was enough to prove his strength, so it would be inappropriate for him to speak out now.

As everyone left slowly with emotion, the only ones left here were those who were very close to Fang Qingyuan.

Le Chuan came up and patted Fang Qingyuan on the shoulder, his eyes full of satisfaction. The golden sable on his shoulder did not dare to act rashly in front of Fang Qingyuan and was very well-behaved.

Chu Hongshang sent a message to Fang Qingyuan, then left with Chu Shentong and Chu Wen. It was a rare opportunity for her to come to Qiyun Mountain, so this time she would stay in Chuyun Peak for a few more days.

Nangong Meng left quietly. She was not the type to join in the fun. Since Fang Qingyuan had married into the Tian family of Qiyun City, there would be no interaction between her and Fang Qingyuan.

The other Nascent Souls also walked away together, but the Nascent Soul from Black Wind Valley was still standing there. Seeing that no one was around, he came up and said:

"Fang Daoist, on behalf of my Bodhisattva, I congratulate you on your success in forming a baby. The Bodhisattva said that if you are willing, you should tell Tu Dai'er a clear answer: do you want to take her in?"

Fang Qingyuan was a little confused. Tu Dai'er? Why did he take her in?

Tu Dai'er didn't sleep herself, so is she planning to force me to take over?

Although Tu Dai'er is very beautiful, her identity is too sensitive. She is Tu Wuzhao's disciple and her chosen one. She possesses a special Taoist body. Her importance to Tu Wuzhao is self-evident.

Fang Qingyuan didn't believe that Tu Wuzhao would be willing to let go. Even if Tu Wuzhao was willing to give it to him, Fang Qingyuan couldn't take it. It was inevitable that one day in the future, Tu Dai'er would be forcibly possessed by Tu Wuzhao and have her body controlled. In that case, he would be dragged onto the pirate ship.

Ever since the battle at Baishan, Fang Qingyuan understood Tu Wuzhao's position, so he no longer had much gratitude towards this incarnation cultivator.

Now that he has Tian Chang who values ​​him, why should he keep looking for a big supporter like before and be a dog? Even if he has Tu Dai'er as his bone, it won't be that good.

Seeing Fang Qingyuan's expression, the Tu family's Yuanying turned cold, and he said:

"Don't forget how the Bodhisattva helped you that day. You must repay him."

Hearing this, Fang Qingyuan hadn't said anything yet, but Tian Jin, who was in charge of welcoming and seeing off guests, said gloomily:

“Tu San, are you threatening our Tian family?”

Tu San looked at Tian Jin. He was still a little afraid of this veteran Yuanying master of the Tian family, so he just snorted coldly and turned away.

"Don't pay attention to him. Most of the cultivators who came out of the Black Wind Valley have abnormal brains. They have been overwhelmed by the incense and vows. With my Tian family here, the Tu family won't dare to do anything to you. Just don't go to the Black Wind Valley in the future."

Tian Jin came over to comfort Fang Qingyuan. Fang Qingyuan's preaching just now was very effective, which greatly enhanced the reputation of the Tian family. Therefore, Tian Jin's attitude towards Fang Qingyuan also changed greatly.

After Fang Qingyuan thanked Tian Jin, Tian Jin went to see off the fellow Taoists who were watching the ceremony. At this point, Fang Qingyuan and Lechuan were the only ones left in the entire hall.

"Qingyuan, you have really made great progress. It is really glorious to have hundreds of Nascent Souls witness you. It is right for you to join Qiyun. Otherwise, you would have died quietly in Baishan without anyone knowing."

Fang Qingyuan smiled and turned his gaze towards the companion beast on Lechuan's shoulder.

"This is your family's Yuanying companion beast. It looks very well behaved now."

The golden mink rolled its eyes at Fang Qingyuan. Le Chuan frowned upon seeing this, and the golden mink immediately began to shiver all over.

"Yes, this is the sacred beast of our Le family. It has signed a soul contract with my master, and we will fight side by side in the future."

Although Le Chuan's tone was flat when he said these words, Fang Qingyuan could hear the hatred in it. It was obvious that after Le Chuan formed his infant, he had made this golden mink suffer a lot.

"Can't he talk?"

"He can speak, but I think he's too long-winded, so I sealed his mouth. He can only speak after ten years."

Fang Qingyuan smiled lightly. After hundreds of years of forbearance, this kind of revenge was really a bit light.

"This is the gift and letter that Qiqi and her friends asked me to bring to you. If you have time in the future, write them back. Qiqi said she misses you very much."

Fang Qingyuan took over a pile of things that Lechuan took out of the storage bag, and the furry figure of Qiqi appeared in his mind.

"Okay, I'll write back."

Fang Qingyuan put the things away and looked at them later. Then he asked Lechuan:

"Master, when will you prepare for the Infant Formation Ceremony?"

Lechuan waved his hand and said:

"There's no rush. Kaershao wants to wait until Peacock City is built. There's no land for me to use now. It will probably take another five or six years."

Fang Qingyuan knew in his heart that Le Chuan's status in the Kale family was far inferior to his own and the Tian family, but there was nothing he could do about it. Le Chuan was not talented enough and was very lucky to achieve the Nascent Soul stage. In terms of combat, the Kale family could not count on him.

"Peacock City? Kalweiming plans to name it after his companion animal. Originally it was a lion, now it's a peacock. It's quite appropriate, but didn't they say it would take ten years to build? Why does it still take five or six years?"

It has been almost eight years since the construction of Peacock City began, but Lechuan said it will take another five or six years, which is obviously beyond the deadline.

Le Chuan smiled helplessly:

"The Kaer family is out of money, and they are trying to find a way to raise money. If the spirit stones are insufficient, it will take ten to twenty years, not to mention five or six years."

Many key materials in Peacock City need to be purchased from other places. For example, Qi Yun is the biggest buyer among them. If the Kaer family has no money, Qi Yun will not indulge him.

The two chatted for a while, and Le Chuan was about to leave. Fang Qingyuan wanted to keep him for a few more days, but Le Chuan refused:

"There are many things waiting for me over there. I can't leave. I have to find time to come here. Knowing that you are so safe, I feel relieved. Now I can't help you in any way. I can only try not to hold you back. Develop well in Qiyun. I am leaving now."

Le Chuan left in a hurry with his disciples. There was a big rift between the Beast Taming Sect and Qi Yun. It was not easy for him to come here. He didn't know what the Kaer family would say about him when he returned this time.

Looking at Le Chuan's departing back, Fang Qingyuan stood for a moment. The distance of more than 100,000 miles would infinitely widen the distance between them as master and disciple.

After calming down, Fang Qingyuan did not rush back to his own residence, but went to a house in the city, where the three Yuanyings of the Chu family were waiting for him.

This chapter took a very long time to write. My ability is limited. I wanted to write a big one, but almost ended up with a big one. Fortunately, I finished it with some bumps. Please forgive me.

I'll update twice more tomorrow. Everyone should go to bed early today.
