Chapter 325 Dao Ancestor Appoints Dao Companion?
After Taiqingzi roared out, the other elders looked at each other in confusion, but soon some of them realized something was wrong.
"Palace Master, it seems Elder Hai hasn't come."
someone shouted.
"Hai Qingzi!!"
Tai Qingzi's eyes narrowed, and he instantly recalled the unusual events of the past few days. He immediately snorted coldly, and then his body swayed as he suddenly flew towards the main hall where Hai Qingzi lived.
The other elders watched Tai Qingzi's departing figure with some surprise, wondering what had happened.
Unbeknownst to them, Ding Yi was standing quietly behind a wall in a corner not far away, watching them.
Seeing Tai Qingzi leave in a hurry, Ding Yi sneered. He then turned to Hai Qingzi behind him and asked:
"Do you know how to dispel the great formation of Biyou Palace?"
Hai Qingzi shook his head upon hearing this, and said:
"The great formation was passed down by an immortal, and only the Palace Master knows about it."
Ding Yi frowned upon hearing this.
Although he had already guessed this possibility, Hai Qingzi's words still made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.
The grand formation that enveloped the entire Biyou Palace seemed quite powerful, even managing to kill a group of True Immortals outside. This undoubtedly hindered the plan to fall into Biyou Palace.
However, Ding Yi was unhappy, but he knew that with the abilities of these immortals, it was only a matter of time before they broke through the formation and stormed into Biyou Palace. So he just stood there quietly and didn't say anything more.
Just then, a furious roar suddenly came from deep within the palace:
"Find Hai Qingzi!! Bring him to me!!"
The sound spread throughout Biyou Palace like a tidal wave, and the expressions of the many elders standing there all changed.
This Hai Qingzi looks like the one who called out Chang Qingzi earlier. But if he worships gods, why would he betray Biyou Palace?
A bead of cold sweat appeared on their foreheads; they all felt somewhat incredulous.
If even worshipping gods can betray the shrine, then the loyalty that all shrines in the world have always prided themselves on will instantly crumble.
"Everyone, I know what you're thinking, but things aren't necessarily heading in the worst direction. Once we find Hai Qingzi, everything will become clear!"
An elder with gray hair and a beard that reached his neck suddenly spoke.
"Elder Yuan is right. Let's find Elder Hai first."
One of the elders nodded and said something.
The others, upon hearing this, dispersed without a word, spreading out in all directions within the palace, seemingly preparing to go find Hai Qingzi.
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi quietly left the area with Hai Qingzi and then quickly moved towards the outer perimeter of Biyou Palace.
Now that the outside is full of real people, even if some of these elders thought of this possibility, they would absolutely not dare to go to the outer perimeter.
At most, they would search the depths of Biyou Palace first, and then expand outwards. Even if they didn't find her in the end, they would tell the Palace Master that Hai Qingzi was hiding in the outer area of Biyou Palace.
And things turned out exactly as Ding Yi had predicted.
The elders first went to Haiqing Palace, where Haiqingzi was located, and then quickly spread outwards to search from there.
As for Taiqingzi, after issuing the order, he rushed towards the highest hall of Biyou Palace.
"Wow!"
Taiqingzi suddenly pushed open the hall door and then slowly walked inside.
Inside the grand hall, there was a statue of an old man with long hair and beard.
The old man had a large tree behind him, a whisk in his hand, and a smile on his face, looking exactly like a wise and enlightened person.
Taiqingzi looked at the tall statue in front of him, took a deep breath, and then walked up to the statue and slowly extended his palm.
Suddenly, wisps of emerald green gas emerged from his palm and condensed into a small, slowly glowing sphere above.
This small ball exudes vitality, like the most powerful divine medicine in the world, and it even caused emerald green moss to grow on the ground beneath Taiqingzi's feet.
"These evergreen flowers, collected over five whole years, are all those damned evil spirits!!"
Taiqingzi looked at the ball of light that appeared in his hand, a hint of pain flashing in his eyes, but he still waved his hand and immediately threw the ball of light at the huge statue in front of him.
The moment the ball of light touched the statue, the entire sphere instantly disappeared into it. Upon seeing this, Taiqingzi immediately bowed and stood still, waiting quietly.
One breath, two breaths... three full breaths later, the statue's eyes began to show some human-like fluctuations, and its pupils began to contract. Then, its face began to move slowly.
"Tai...Qing...Zi, what do you need me for?"
An eerie murmur echoed from the main hall, but the statue's mouth remained silent, adding to the sinister atmosphere of the sound.
Taiqingzi bowed deeply, his voice trembling as he spoke:
"Real Person above, for some unknown reason, immortals from other divine palaces have suddenly descended today. Now these immortals have gathered outside my Biyou Palace, wanting to come in and investigate the matter of Ancestor Changqing."
After Taiqingzi finished speaking, the statue suddenly fell silent.
Taiqingzi didn't dare to look up, and just stood there in that position, feeling a little uneasy.
A moment later, the strange voice rang out again, but this time it was filled with anger and anxiety.
"Who leaked the information?! We have long concealed this secret from Heaven, Taiqingzi, do you know your crime?!"
Upon hearing this, the entire palace where Taiqingzi was located trembled slightly, demonstrating the extent of the anger of the person behind the statue.
Taiqingzi quickly said:
“Master, this matter is indeed not the fault of my Biyou Palace. I don’t know why they suddenly descended to the mortal realm. I heard it is related to the disappearance of a Master named Tianxiao.”
As soon as Taiqingzi finished speaking, the statue roared:
"I don't care about any Heavenly Laughter or Maniacal Laughter, immediately sacrifice enough Evergreen Flowers, we are going to descend to the mortal realm!!"
Taiqingzi was taken aback upon hearing this, and then subconsciously said:
"This... Real people, are you going to send out all your forces?"
The statue was taken aback by these words, and the voice continued to ask:
"What do you mean, 'all out in full force'?"
Taiqingzi wiped the sweat from her brow and said:
"The remaining True Persons of the Divine Palace number about sixteen or seventeen."
Silence, a long silence.
The statue seemed to be frightened, so much so that its eyes, which were normally able to move, stopped moving.
"Fuck your mother! You've offended the entire Divine Palace?! You were put in charge of Biyou Palace, not destroyed by it!!"
The statue let out a strange cry, which instantly turned Taiqingzi's face deathly pale.
After a moment, the statue returned to calm.
"The current solution is to transfer the Ancestral Master's Spirit Seed. I will report to the Upper Palace and send someone down to the mortal realm to buy time."
The voice of the deity slowly echoed in the temple.
"One person? May I ask, can this person... can he hold them off?"
Taiqingzi was taken aback.
"This person is the Daoist partner chosen by the Patriarch, the reincarnation of the Dao Venerable, and the number one True Person in our palace."
The voice of the idol came again.
Upon hearing this, Taiqingzi's expression immediately turned strange. It was clear that he had realized that the Upper Palace no longer trusted them and had actually sent the Dao Ancestor's chosen Dao Companion, a person who was absolutely incapable of betraying them, down to the mortal realm.
And this person is supposedly the reincarnation of a Daoist master, which sounds incredibly impressive, making him seem like he's from a completely different world from a nobody like Karami.
But Taiqingzi had no choice. He immediately bowed his head and agreed. Then the eyes of the statue returned to their stone-carved state, clearly indicating that communication with the lower realm had been severed.
Taiqingzi dared not delay any longer. He immediately turned and left the main hall, shouting outside:
"All elders, proceed to Wangxian Palace immediately!!"
As soon as Taiqingzi finished speaking, the sound of clothes rustling through the air came from the palace complex below.
Before long, the elders arrived at Taiqingzi's side.
"Palace Master, Hai Chang... Hai Qingzi has not been found."
The group first reported the results of their search to Taiqingzi.
Taiqingzi was clearly not in the mood to listen to any of this. He waved his hand impatiently and then said:
"The Imperial Palace has issued a decree to send someone down to the mortal realm. Please contribute some Evergreen Flowers!"
Upon hearing this, the elders naturally exchanged bewildered glances.
"Palace Master, is there only one person?"
Someone couldn't help but ask.
Taiqingzi sneered upon hearing this:
"What, this is the will of the immortal, and you want to object?"
Upon hearing this, the man immediately shook his head repeatedly.
Those who possess the Evergreen Demonic Power have no reason to resist the phantom in their minds. Therefore, even if they were asked to completely drain the Evergreen Flowers they have collected, they would not be able to refuse.
"Fortunately, it's just one person, so it shouldn't take too many evergreen porcelains. Gentlemen, let's begin!"
After Tai Qingzi finished speaking, he turned around and walked into the main hall behind him. The other elders exchanged glances and then followed him in.
After arriving at the main hall, the group immediately took their positions in a row in front of the statue.
Tai Qingzi first extended his palm, and then the same blue wisps of energy as before began to appear on his palm.
However, this wisp of air did not condense into a sphere as before, but instead remained in a filamentous state, moving through the air like a serpent.
This is because the mysterious immortal descended to the mortal realm, and Taiqingzi and the others couldn't figure out exactly how much Evergreen Flower Qi they needed, so they could only choose this method of continuous infusion until the true immortal from the upper realm completely descended to the mortal realm.
So the other elders followed suit and stretched out their palms toward the statue.
The next moment, a wisp of cyan gas appeared on everyone's palms, and this gas quickly surged towards the giant statue in front of them and disappeared into it in a flash.
In an instant, more than a dozen beams of blue light filled the air, connecting everyone to the statue.
Soon, after a short while, the dough figurine's expression began to look strange.
"Palace Master, are you sure it's just one person? Why haven't you reacted yet?"
One of the elders looked pained and asked Taiqingzi.
Tai Qingzi's face was also gloomy. Although the group had only been transmitting energy for less than half a cup of tea, the amount of Evergreen Flower energy transmitted by more than a dozen people was enough to support three or four True Persons descending to the mortal realm. However, the statue did not make a sound.
"Let's wait a bit longer; this immortal should be quite powerful."
After thinking for a moment, Taiqingzi could only reply in this way.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent and continued in this manner for about half a cup of tea's time until finally an elder let out a scream and suddenly fell to the ground!
The others quickly looked over and saw that the man's arm had dried up instantly, like a dehydrated corpse that had been dehydrated for hundreds of years.
"I can't go on anymore, the Evergreen Flower energy in my body has been completely exhausted!"
The man looked dejected, staring at his withered arm, his voice filled with sorrow.
Although his arms are withered at this moment, the price he paid for exhausting the energy of the Evergreen Flower is far more than that.
Not only will their foundation be damaged, but if they don't replenish their strength through human and animal means as soon as possible, they will have no chance of increasing their cultivation level in the future, and there is even a possibility that their cultivation level will regress.
Everyone present looked sorrowful upon seeing this.
They were well aware of the dangers of excessive consumption of the evergreen flower's energy, but they had no other choice but to grit their teeth and persevere.
At this moment, Taiqingzi was even more shocked.
You have to understand, it took so many of them half a cup of tea to spread the word, which would have been enough for seven or eight True Immortals. If only one person descended to the mortal realm, what exactly was that person's cultivation level? And how strong could they be?
Thinking of this, Tai Qingzi was not alarmed but delighted. The stronger the immortals in the lower realm were, the better their chances of resolving the crisis facing Biyou Palace.
Just as Taiqingzi was pondering, the statue on the platform suddenly made a crisp cracking sound.
coming! !
Upon hearing this, everyone was immediately alerted, withdrew their hands, and stood still with their heads down, not daring to look directly at each other.
The next moment, a large cloud of mist suddenly appeared above the statue, and a graceful figure could be vaguely seen slowly emerging from it.
It was obvious that this time, a woman had descended to the mortal realm.
The woman was bathed in mist, with faint rosy light flashing around her. At the same time, she waved her arm, and there was a rustling sound of clothes. It turned out that she had put on a Taoist robe.
Just as the clouds and mist parted, the goddess appeared, and all things returned to their origin, reversing the cycle of heaven and earth.
The woman, dressed in a Taoist robe, slowly descended the stone platform. Before her, the elders, including Tai Qingzi, dared not raise their heads, standing there with their hands bowed, seemingly waiting for the woman to speak.
The next moment, a voice came from in front of them, like the cry of an oriole in a valley, which made everyone in the hall tremble.
"Which one of you is Taiqingzi?"
As soon as the woman finished speaking, Tai Qingzi dared to raise his head and say:
"I am Taiqingzi, the Palace Master of Biyou Palace in the lower realm, and I am the Immortal above."
As soon as Tai Qingzi looked up, his pupils contracted, because he saw that the woman in front of him was no ordinary person. Her skin was as white as snow, her eyebrows were delicate and her face was fair, and her eyes were like spring water, which could captivate anyone at a glance.
As expected of the Dao Ancestor's chosen Daoist partner!
For no apparent reason, a feeling of jealousy arose in Taiqingzi's heart, which was even tinged with resentment.
But as soon as the thought crossed his mind, sweat beaded on his forehead, and he stood there trembling like a drowning frog.
What's wrong with me? This is the Dao Ancestor's Dao Companion, how could I have such thoughts?!
Taiqingzi was startled, but she vaguely guessed that this might be due to the influence of the woman in front of her.
This is terrifying! With just one glance, I lost my Dao heart. Is this the power of a Venerable One reincarnated? The woman the Patriarch has taken a liking to?!
P.S.: From now on, two chapters will be combined into one.
