Everyone was talking about the Dragon Emperor, and they were extremely worried in their hearts, but they didn't expect what they were afraid of.
The next morning, there was a golden light in the sky, fairy music was playing, cranes were flying, and many alluring fairies holding various musical instruments opened the way and arrived at Qingluo City in a mighty manner.
This group of immortals is surrounded by golden light. It is extremely sacred and the scene is earth-shattering. A total of 990 fairies stand in two rows, and in the middle there is a nine-headed dragon pulling a carriage.
"Holy Lord Cangtian, traveling around the world, came to Qingluo Lake today. The person in charge hastily come out to greet you."
In front of the carriage, a tall, tall middle-aged man stood respectfully. When the group of immortals stopped in the sky above Qingluo City, his majestic voice sounded in time, spreading to every corner of Qingluo City.
While this mighty sound was still reverberating in the sky, Emperor Taishi had already noticed it and had already led eight of his disciples to the sky and arrived in front of the Nine Dragon Divine Chariot to greet it.
"The Lord of Qingluo Lake City, Taishi the Great, sincerely welcomes the Holy Lord of Heaven!"
Emperor Taishi and his eight disciples stood respectfully in the air and bowed down to worship the Nine-Dragon Divine Chariot. Their attitude could not be described as disrespectful. Even though they knew that the person sitting in the Nine-Dragon Divine Chariot was the Dragon Emperor and Xuanhuang.
The enemies of the world, but under this situation, we have to treat them with respect. You can imagine the complicated mood of everyone.
Then, the golden light bloomed in the Kowloon Divine Chariot, and a tall and heroic figure came out. This was a great man who ruled the world and looked down upon the world forever. He was eight feet tall and extraordinary in martial arts. There was a hazy golden phantom behind him. This was
It was the Dragon Emperor of the past and the Cangtian of today.
"Taishi. Upholding the will of the Great Dao, I order you to recuperate in Qingluo City. From now on, the ten best immortals will be selected every year and sent to Tiansheng Palace to participate in the ceremony of selecting saints."
"There must be no mistake in this matter, otherwise Taishi, you and the entire Qingluo City will be wiped out."
The Dragon Emperor looked down at the respectful Emperor Taishi, saying these cold words. There was no emotion in his eyes as vast as the stars. He was just following orders. After explaining the matter, he returned to the Nine Dragon Divine Chariot.
Left Qingluo City.
Finally, the huge ceremonial guard with fairy music playing and thousands of dancing fairies left Qingluo City and rushed to the next city. Emperor Taishi and others straightened up and looked at the sky where the ceremonial guard disappeared.
Emperor Taishi's face was full of gloom. There was a lot of worry between his brows. For a moment, his expression no longer remained calm, as if his whole person had gone through hundreds of millions of years in an instant.
"Although I know it is still the case, so what. This is life, how can we fight against it?"
Looking at the dim sky in the distance, facing the biting cold wind, Emperor Taishi's white hair was flying in the wind, and he whispered these words softly at the corner of his mouth. His eyes became heavier.
At this time, the voice of the Red Lotus Fairy came: "Master, we were worried before that the Dragon Emperor would have the desire to kill after meeting Lu Ren, Du Rufeng and other descendants of the Xuanhuang World. Now it seems that it is us
Worry too much."
"Yeah." Emperor Taishi didn't say much, just nodded slightly.
"Master, I always feel that the Dragon Emperor seems to have changed. I still remember that during the chaotic martial arts competition in Jiuxiao Jade Capital, the Dragon Emperor was an arrogant and domineering man who looked down on the world. He was like the most domineering emperor in the world, with a dazzling light.
, one cannot look at it.”
"But now, why does the Dragon Emperor look so cold and cold that even his emotions and desires seem to have disappeared? Although he still has the courage to look down on the world, he always feels like a walking corpse?"
Fairy Red Lotus naturally hated the Dragon Emperor deeply, so even though she had just greeted him, she was still quite angry and disrespectful, and secretly observed the Dragon Emperor for a long time. She was a thoughtful person, and she observed carefully.
It took the Dragon Emperor so long to find out the clues.
Hearing this, Emperor Taishi was not surprised. It seemed that he had already expected this scene. In fact, the scene just now made him so familiar, as if the scene of that year was reappearing. On that day an era ago, the previous Cangtian also
Such an appearance and tone of voice.
"Although the Dragon Emperor received a great opportunity, understood the Gate of Creation, and gained the power of immortality, is it really a great opportunity?"
"You are the Holy Lord of Heaven, and your status is unparalleled in the world, but after all, you are just a servant of the great road. Which is the eternal power that is more important, or the self?"
Emperor Taishi sighed softly, and his words of vicissitudes of life swirled and lingering in the wind. He said no more, turned around, walked forward with his lonely back, and finally walked back to Qingluo City step by step. This scene is like this.
, causing Fairy Red Lotus and other eight disciples to stand alone in the wind, with pensive expressions on their faces, and their moods became increasingly heavy.
"From now on, Qingluo City will hold an Immortal Fighting Conference on the third day of March every year. The top ten winners will be sent to the Tiansheng Palace to have the opportunity to compete for the place of saints and receive the mercy and guidance of heaven!"
This news was quickly conveyed from the city lord's palace, and spread throughout the entire Qingluo City in less than three days. Tens of millions of monks and immortals were all excited and enthusiastically participating.
After all, the rewards are so tempting and generous. Think about it, the top ten winners can actually enter the Tiansheng Palace, have a better chance of becoming a saint, and get guidance from heaven!
The words Tiansheng Palace and Saint are undoubtedly the strongest stimulants and boosters for ordinary monks and immortals. Obviously, every monk goes through hardships and dangers for the power of immortality and immortality.
Arrive at the Holy Land.
Although they don't know where Tiansheng Palace is or what it looks like, let alone what a saint is. But they do know that perhaps, if they can enter Tiansheng Palace and become a saint, they can gain the power of immortality.
Got it!
Because of this, on the third day, in the central square of Qingluo City, the arena built by the Red Lotus Fairy and other eight Immortal Kings was already crowded with immortals who came to participate in the Immortal Fighting Conference.
Of course, ordinary monks are not allowed to participate in the Immortal Fighting Conference. The minimum requirement is to have the strength of the immortal realm. However, the person who wins in the end will definitely not be an immortal.
Emperor Taishi seemed to have little interest in this matter. He just ordered his disciples to do it. He has been staying in the city lord's palace for retreat. Moreover, Emperor Taishi also kept silent about matters such as Tiansheng Palace and saints.
, don’t even tell the immortal monks in the city what those things are.
Although everyone knows that Emperor Taishi must know what these things represent.
Therefore, the millions of immortals who finally came to participate in the Immortal Fighting Conference were all new faces. There were no disciples of Emperor Taishi and no masters from the Xuanhuang world.
The Immortal Fighting Conference was very exciting. Once it was held, it immediately became the focus of the entire Qingluo City. Almost all the immortals gathered here. In one month, hundreds of thousands of immortals and a small number of powerful Immortal Kings participated in the Immortal Fighting Conference.
General Assembly.
In the end, ten winners were selected, and the Fairy Fighting Conference came to an end and will be held again on the third day of March next year.
There is no doubt that these ten winners are all powerful Immortal Kings. Although they are only Immortals with early-stage Immortal King strength, they are also outstanding existences in the entire Qingluo City. Of course, in the final analysis, the main reason is still too
The Eight Hundred Immortal Kings under the First Emperor did not participate in the Immortal Fighting Conference, nor did any of the masters from the Xuanhuang World.
After the Immortal Fighting Conference, the ten winners were summoned by Emperor Taishi. Finally, Emperor Taishi, Red Lotus Fairy and other disciples escorted these ten people to Tiansheng Palace.
After the ten immortal kings arrived at the Tiansheng Palace, they waited for three days and saw 210 winners sent from various cities in the holy realm. From then on, there will be a total of 220 winners.
Gathering in the Tiansheng Palace. They will ascend to the Tiansheng Palace to reach the Nine Heavens. Only the winner who finally reaches the top and reaches beyond the Nine Heavens will be able to obtain the power of immortality, and even be enlightened and taught by the Great Dao.
Half of the two hundred and twenty winners are the Immortal Kings from the Immortal Realm and Jiuxiao Yujing, and the other half are the Divine Kings from the Divine Realm and the Nine Netherworld. To this day, the Immortal Realm and the Divine Realm are no longer blocked by the Tianhe River, and finally
We can join forces and compete against each other.
After sending the ten Immortal Kings to Tiansheng Palace, Emperor Taishi returned to Qingluo City with the Red Lotus Fairy. From then on, he began to retreat and did not appear again for thousands of years.
Next, every year on the third day of March, Qingluo City will hold an Immortal Fighting Conference on time, and then ten winners will be selected, escorted by the Red Lotus Fairy, and sent to Tiansheng Palace. This cycle repeats, year after year, I don’t know.
Before I knew it, a thousand years had passed.
During these thousand years, many monks and immortals in Qingluo City have been inspired with endless fighting spirit. Everyone is practicing hard and desperately, just to one day win the top ten in the Immortal Fighting Conference and be sent to
Tiansheng Palace. Unknowingly, it has become the goal of every monk and immortal to capture the top ten in the Immortal Fighting Conference and be sent to Tiansheng Palace.
At the same time, Qingluo City also adheres to the will of Holy Lord Cangtian and orders all male and female monks and immortals in the city to get married or have children. Regardless of whether they are Taoist couples or not, they can have children. At the same time, Qingluo City has strict regulations on childbirth.
The female monks and immortals also gave heavy rewards, which greatly stimulated the reproduction rate of the monks and immortals.
In just one thousand years, the population of Qingluo City has reached 35 million from the initial 18 million. Moreover, the population is growing faster and faster. It is expected that in another thousand years, Qingluo City will
The city's population will reach hundreds of millions.
However, what is worrying and somewhat disappointing is that as the annual Fairy Fighting Conference is held, the strength of each winner gradually becomes weaker and weaker. In the first few hundred years, the top ten winners
The winners were almost all Immortal Kings, but today, thousands of years later, Immortal Kings are rare, and most of the top ten winners were in the late Immortal stage.
Moreover, at first, none of the eight hundred immortal kings under Emperor Taishi went to the Immortal Fighting Conference because they could not see the reaction of Emperor Taishi. But later, Emperor Taishi closed himself up and did not care about worldly affairs, and some immortal kings finally couldn't bear it.
He was tempted to live and go to Tiansheng Palace and become a saint. In the end, he couldn't help but participated in the Immortal Fighting Conference and was sent to Tiansheng Palace as he wished.
Although the spiritual energy in the holy domain is thin, there is Qingluo Lake next to Qingluo City and the existence of life springs, which makes the monks and immortals practice extremely fast. Almost every year, countless monks become immortals and even save themselves from tribulations.
Already.
The monks no longer have the threat of overcoming the tribulation, and their strength has grown extremely rapidly. There are many who have become immortals in a thousand years. Pedestrians on the streets of Qingluo City can easily find countless real immortals and heavenly immortals.
However, although the immortals and monks are practicing extremely fast and their strength is improving at a rapid rate, they still cannot meet the needs of the Immortal Fighting Conference. Every year, the ten strongest people are sent away. Even if there are more powerful Immortal Kings, they will still be unable to meet the needs of the Immortal Fighting Conference.
There will be a day when it is exhausted, so the current situation is reached. The winner of the Immortal Fighting Conference becomes an immortal in the late stage of Tianxian.
In the past thousand years, Fairy Honglian has been repeating the same thing every year. The initial anticipation and excitement for the Immortal Fighting Conference gradually became numb and indifferent in the end. Moreover, she also gradually felt that the Fighting Immortal Conference seemed to be lost.
More often than not, as the leader escorting the ten winners to the Tiansheng Palace, she did not feel that she was transporting talents at all. Instead, she was more like a waiter in a mortal restaurant, escorting one after another.
