Based on the true strength of the Lingshan Sect, it can be regarded as the "Great Immortal Sect".

Unfortunately, due to special reasons, neither Taoist Fu Hua nor Taoist Fu Ling, the two great supernatural power seniors, were able to stand in front of the stage.

After all, although the Yuqin Demon Emperor agreed to the Lingshan Sect's settlement in Yuqin Mountain, in essence, he still did not want to cause trouble. He did not want Taoist Fu Hua to get too close to the Lingshan Sect openly, so as to avoid the Yuqin Mountain Shrine being affected by the previous

Implicated, troubled.

Even the mountain gate where the Lingshan sect settled and the surrounding territory belonging to Taoist Fuhua were traded to the Shanshen Palace and went through a process to avoid Taoist Fuhua.

The day before the founding ceremony of the new Lingshan Sect was approaching, Taoist Fu Hua and Taoist Fu Ling left the Lingshan Sect early with complicated emotions, leaving Xu Ping and Chu Chen to take charge of the overall situation.

Early in the morning, at the urging of the little ghost boy, Chu Chen went out of the customs to welcome the guests as soon as possible.

Speaking of which, the first person to arrive at Lingshan Sect was both a neighbor and an old acquaintance.

The visitor is Qi Xiuxin, the lord of Xylophone City.

Xylophone City is not far from the Lingshan Sect, a hundred miles away. For accomplished monks, this distance is nothing. A few days ago, after Qi Xiuxian learned that the Lingshan Sect had settled in Yuqin Mountain, he made a special trip to visit him.

It's a pity that Chu Chen and Qing Ying were in seclusion at that time, traveling in their world and could not meet each other.

"Friend Qi, long time no see!"

Chu Chen bowed his hands and smiled cordially.

"Elder Chu, Deputy Governor Xu is in charge, congratulations."

With a smile on her face, Qi Xiuxin congratulated Lingshan master and apprentice with a gift and cupped hands.

Of course, there was a fleeting hint of complexity in his smile.

Speaking of which, he and Chu Chen have known each other for more than ten years. When Chu Chen first entered the eight southwest states and served as the head of the Wanquan Taoist Academy, he was the governor of Wanquan County at the time. At that time, he was still Chu Chen's boss.

Just over ten years later, Chu Chen not only achieved the realm of great supernatural powers, but now he has broken through to the third level, allowing the original small sect to step into the ranks of the big sects. Now he founded the sect and re-established the sect.

The atmosphere of a great master.

As for him, he is still stuck at the fifth level and super level, and he still has not broken through to the realm of great supernatural powers.

Chu Chen's mind was sharp and he saw the complex look in Qi Xiuxin's expression at a glance, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

Speaking of which, Qi Xiuxin's talent is not bad. He was born as a Jinshi, and he has cultivated a high-class Confucianism and Taoism. He has been cultivating to the fifth level and super level for many years.

Even if he is not sure about the realm of supernatural powers, it is very possible, and he is highly favored by his elders and friends.

It's a pity that Qi Xiuxin, who has attracted much attention, was unexpectedly trapped in the fifth level of Taoism.

Others didn't know Qi Xiuxin's situation, but Chu Chen had some vague guesses.

"Isn't he still obsessed with the great opportunity hidden behind Yuqin Mountain?"

Obsession, whether it is for ordinary mortals or practitioners, is a double-edged sword. It has a positive and beneficial side and a negative side.

How to weigh the trade-offs requires a lot of wisdom.

With Qi Xiuxin's background, it would be easy for him to transfer out of Xylophone City, as mentioned above. However, he is still the master of Xylophone City, which shows the problem - he can't let go of his obsession.

[Qingchen Cave Heaven] fell into the hands of Chu Chen, and others could not get involved at all. Even if the Cave Heaven was born one day, it would be known to everyone. The top forces from all sides and the strong ones would compete for it, and it would no longer be a small fifth-level Taoism.

The monks can pick up the missed ones.

Therefore, no matter what expectations and delusions Qi Xiu secretly has, I am afraid that they will all come to nothing in the end and his efforts will be wasted.

Chu Chen sighed secretly in his heart and wanted to persuade him, but after thinking about it carefully, he gave up.

He was unable to have a heart-to-heart conversation, and a casual piece of advice that his elders and family members might have mentioned more than once would be of no use. Instead, it would easily annoy people and even lead to unnecessary misunderstandings.

Qi Xiuxin didn't stay for long. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he sat down to the table under the leadership of Lingshan disciples.

Next, groups of guests arrived one after another.

Most of the first batch of guests who arrived were from the surrounding forces of Yuqin Mountain.

Behind Qi Xiuxin, the governors and governors of Yuqin County, Qingshi County, and Yuxi County came to congratulate one after another. Chu Chen was once the governor of Yuqin Mountain and was in charge of three counties and one city (Xiuqin City), and he was considered their old boss.

, therefore, they were the most active in coming to congratulate and were the first to do so.

Then came the local forces in Yuqin Mountain.

Zhang Xiucai and his wife, Princess Lu Yan, represented the Yuqin Mountain Shrine and were the first to attend the banquet and observe the ceremony.

"Brother Chu, congratulations, I just want to express my gratitude to you. Don't dislike it."

Under the guest pavilion in Lingshan, the scholar waved his folding fan and handed over a scroll in a coquettish manner. Xu was very confident in his painting and kept gesturing to Chu Chen to open it and take a look.

Needless to say, Chu Chen was not polite about his friendship with the scholar. He took apart the scroll on the spot and slowly spread it out in the air.

Immediately, a splash-ink freehand landscape painting appeared in the eyes of Chu Chen and Taoist Xu Ping. The landscape in the painting was clearly that of the Lingshan School today. The painting was so lifelike that it appeared on the paper.

What's even more amazing is that after this landscape painting was spread out, it faintly stirred up the power of the surrounding heaven and earth, and a seemingly non-existent breath gathered towards the landscape painting axis.

"Hiss~ It can actually arouse the power of the surrounding heaven and earth, and even vaguely have the magical effect of stimulating luck."

Taoist priest Xu Ping has good eyesight, and his eyes are filled with surprise.

"Taoist Master Xu has a good eye, so he hung this picture of Lingshan Zhongxiu in the door. It has the magical effect of gathering the earth's veins and suppressing luck. I spent a lot of effort and painstaking efforts to draw it."

The scholar was so proud that he flicked his folding fan in a coquettish way, looking very proud.

In the past, Chu Chen would have secretly cursed "Slut", but this time, he was sincerely amazed.

The scholar really didn't brag this time, but he was really quite remarkable.

Paintings that can "suppress one's luck" are extremely precious. In the world of spiritual practice, they are expensive but not marketable. There is no place to buy them if you want. Sects and cultivating families all want to buy these precious paintings to suppress one's family's luck.

.

And those who can draw paintings that "suppress luck" have entered the realm of "Master of Painting". Looking at the entire world of immortality, they are extremely respected. Even if the scholar is not a monk with great supernatural powers, his status is far beyond ordinary great supernatural powers.

Realm monk.

Although [The Way of Painting] is not a mainstream teaching, it is still a method that directly points to the great road. It can be practiced to a profound state without any deviation.

Chu Chen was not surprised at all by the scholar's transformation. Back then, the scholar had gone through troughs to refine his "Drawing and Wonderful Heart". Now, it is just the first good fruit forged by the blood and tears of that year. The future will be brighter and brighter.

"Xiucai, congratulations!"

Chu Chen saw Princess Lu Yan standing next to the scholar, who looked like a little bird, but actually looked like a monk with great magical powers. He secretly gave the scholar a thumbs up.

They did not disgrace the trio from the Ghosts and Gods Division of Xin'an County.

The scholar understood the idea and smiled broadly, as if he were at home, not at all out of touch:

"Brother Chu, Taoist Xu, you greet the guests first, and we will go in first."

"good"

Next, there was an endless stream of guests coming to the door.

After attending the banquet at the Yuqin Mountain Shrine, large and small forces from Yuqin Mountain came to congratulate him.

Later, Han Chen, Little Fox Fairy Dai Yan, Frog God Jin Lan, Wang Ping, Little Monk Yuantong, Xuan Lingzi, etc. Chu Chen's friends and colleagues who had met in Yunzhou and the eight southwest states arrived one after another.

In addition, Taoist Xu Ping’s friends and colleagues also came to congratulate him, and the scene was extremely lively.

Throughout the morning, there was an endless stream of guests.

These guests are all respectable people, with the lowest level of Taoist cultivation, which is also the fifth level of Taoism, and there are many monks with great supernatural powers among them.

This viewing event was quite lively.

To be a little exaggerated, most of "Yunzhou" gathered in the Lingshan Sect. If anyone didn't come, it was either a side sect of the devil's path, or the power was too small and they did not receive the invitation to watch the ceremony.

The founding ceremony of the Lingshan Sect was arranged in the afternoon, and after the reception and banquet, when it was noon, the number of guests who came to congratulate us was extraordinary.

The first person to come was none other than the Lord of Yuqin Mountain - the Yuqin Demon Emperor.

As the local mountain god, the Yuqin Demon King has an extraordinary status in Yuqin Mountain. As soon as he appeared, most of the guests in the Lingshan Square stood up from their seats and bowed to the sky to show respect.

"You don't need to be polite. Today is a happy day for the Lingshan sect to settle in our Yuqin Mountain. Don't be indifferent to priorities."

Demon Emperor Yuqin laughed loudly, and after finishing speaking, he held his hands towards Chu Chen and his disciples:

"Fellow Daoist Chu and Daoist Xu, congratulations on the restoration of Lingshan, you will be prosperous forever in the future!"

Taoist Xu Ping was a little nervous and excited, but Chu Chen was much calmer and said with a smile:

"Thank you Taoist Fellow Yuqin for your discussion. Today's banquet is over. Fellow Taoist, don't leave. You and I will have a good discussion on Taoism."

As soon as these words came out, the guests attending the banquet in Lingshan Square suddenly showed expressions of surprise. They all secretly lamented that Chu Chen's tone was a bit loud. He, a junior who had just broken through to the third level, might not be able to "discuss" with the Yuqin Demon Emperor.

A lot of heat

However, what is surprising is that after hearing Chu Chen's words, the Demon Emperor Yuqin showed no displeasure at all on his face. On the contrary, he couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Others didn't know the meaning of Chu Chen's words, but he understood them.

Afterwards, Chu Chen planned to fulfill his promise and share the follow-up [Lei Wen Tian Zhuan] with him. For him who wholeheartedly pursues the truth, there is no more touching good news than this.

"Hahaha~ That's wonderful! Fellow Daoist Chu, that's settled."

Demon King Yuqin smiled and followed the guidance of his apprentice Chu Baiqing, rushing towards the high platform where the audience was seated.

Seeing this scene, the guests at the banquet secretly expressed surprise and speculated on the relationship between Chu Chen and the Yuqin Demon Emperor.
