Shangguan Yun, the lord of Jinguan City, is nearly fifty years old. He is currently in his study room, listening to his most trusted confidant, Mr. Wang, reporting the news about the immortal descended from Qingyang Palace in Shushan Mountain.
After Mr. Wang finished narrating in detail, the city lord, who was deeply educated in the Confucian thought of "the son does not speak, the monsters and the gods are confused" could not help but frown deeply.
After a while he asked:
"It's really a person sitting on the back of a huge white crane. Could it be a trick and deception?"
"Reporting to my lord, based on the humble opinion of a student, it shouldn't be a trick. Judging from Master Mingyu's demeanor and reaction at the time, it shouldn't be fake."
Master Wang, who looked like a Confucian scholar, stroked his goatee, thought for a moment and said.
Shangguan Yun still seemed unable to believe it and said subconsciously:
"Could it be that Master Mingyu was also deceived?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shangguan Yun smiled:
"I am also confused. Master Mingyu has been in charge of Qingyang Palace for fifty years. It is said that he is also a person with advanced cultivation. How can he be so easy to fool?"
Master Wang, who was serving beside him, also nodded and said nothing.
There was an eerie silence in the study. After a long time, Master Wang opened his mouth and said tentatively:
"Sir, do you think we need to go to Qingyang Palace to visit this so-called Kunlun Immortal?"
"Okay, then let me leave this matter to you, Master, to arrange it."
"Subordinates take orders."

Jiangnan Province.
Jiangnan Province is located in the southeast. It is the beloved land of the Dayu Empire. The entire province is bounded by the vast sea to the east, and is separated from Jiangyin Province by a Tongtian River to the south. It is connected to Donglu Province to the north and Donglu Province to the west.
Facing it is the vast land of the Central Plains.
Nearly one-tenth of the population of the entire Dayu Empire is concentrated here.
Huating City, Sheshan.
The breeze gently stirs the green mountains, the bright moon hangs slantingly in the sky, and is dotted with sparse stars. A fairy-like shadow in white stands in the sky, as beautiful as a fairy from the Moon Palace falling into the mortal world.
Looking at the thousands of lights in Huating City at the foot of the mountain, the woman in white raised her lips slightly, as if she really liked this world of fireworks.
At this moment, a ray of light pierced the sky and rushed towards the woman in white with lightning speed. She flicked her slender fingers and the light shrank, revealing a golden golden ball three inches long and two fingers wide.
Token.
When the woman in white saw the token, a look of surprise appeared on her face. She poured mana into the token, and a majestic voice sounded in her ears:
"Ling Yue, Kunlun has sent his disciples down the mountain and is now heading to Xishu. You and Zhixue quickly find out who this person is and what is the purpose of Kunlun sending people down the mountain at this time."
As soon as he finished speaking, the token in Nangong Lingyue's hand disappeared out of thin air as if it had never existed.
Thinking that the king was preaching thousands of miles at this time, just for a disciple who came down from the mountain in Kunlun, I couldn't help but feel curious. Just as I was thinking of this, a voice like an oriole came from far away.
"Sister, sister, I'm back."
A green figure instantly appeared on the top of the small hill from the foot of the mountain.
Looking at the junior sister who was dressed in palace attire and wearing a high bun, Nangong Lingyue lowered her figure and said angrily:
"Zhixue, didn't I tell you, don't go and play in the human world at will. Being tainted by the karma of the mortal world will hinder your own path."
Yan Zhixue said with a coquettish expression:
"Don't worry, sister, you won't be contaminated by any karma. Besides, the world is much more fun than the mountains. Sister, can you go with me next time?"
"Hey, I'm too lazy to talk to you. Just pack up and we'll go to Xishu immediately."
Nangong Lingyue said helplessly.
Yan Zhixue looked puzzled and said:
"Going to Xishu? Sister, what are we going to Xishu for?"
"I just received a message from the king's spiritual talisman Wanli. People from Kunlun have come down the mountain. The king wants us to check."
"Let's take the opportunity to try out how powerful Kunlun Taoism is, right?"
Yan Zhixue said smoothly.
"Oh, sister, why did you hit me? Didn't you hit Kunlun Cow on the nose?"
Yan Ruxue covered her forehead and looked at Nangong Lingyue with aggrieved expression.
Nangong Lingyue said with an angry look.
"You only know how to fight. With your current level of cultivation, you want to fight everywhere? If I don't fight, who will I fight?"
"Besides, the king of the country has ordered us to find out who Kunlun sent into the wilderness? You must know that no one from Kunlun has appeared in the wilderness for thousands of years."
Yan Zhixue heard this and whispered:
"Just say what you say, why do you keep hitting people on the forehead?"
"What are you talking about?"
Looking at Nangong Lingyue, who had upturned eyebrows, Yan Zhixue pulled Nangong Mingyue's catkins and smiled and said coquettishly:
"Okay, I understand, sister. Let's go south to see what the leader of the Taoist sect said so powerfully. Then, sister, you have to protect me."
Seeing Yan Zhixue acting coquettishly and cutely, Nangong Lingyue smiled, as intoxicatingly beautiful as an orchid in an empty valley, and said confidently:
"Don't worry. Over the years of practicing in the world, the innate soul has already been completely solidified. Even if I really have to fight against the Kunlun disciples, I won't be afraid."
Yan Zhixue said with surprise:
"Really? Sister, your cultivation has finally reached the fusion state. Great, then we don't have to be afraid of those annoying guys from Buddhism and Taoism. If we don't like any of them in the future, we will teach him a lesson and let him know
We are awesome."
Nangong Lingyue looked at Yan Zhixue's expression of fear that the world would be peaceful and shook her head without saying a word. She pulled up the girl who was still immersed in her fantasy and rose into the sky, like a meteor streaking across the sky.

The mountain behind Qingyang Palace is lined with green cliffs.
The innate soul sitting cross-legged in the center of the chaotic sea of consciousness suddenly trembled for no reason, awakening Xie Heng who was meditating on the edge of the cliff. He quickly used the Xutian Palace mental method to calm the restless soul, and said secretly:
"What is this sudden interaction between heaven and man? Is there something going on?"
Xie Heng thought of this and immediately started to deduce the numbers from Xiantian Yishu.
After calculating for a long time, Xie Heng could only see the back of a figure dressed in white as snow in the blurry sky, but found nothing else. He couldn't help but secretly lament his lack of cultivation.
Recalling the calculation just now, and planning to deduce it again, I heard the voice of the little Taoist priest Donghua.
"Uncle Master, your practice is over."
As they got along with each other during this period, Xie Heng fell more and more in love with this little Taoist boy who was only thirteen years old. Seeing the uneasy look on the little Taoist priest's face, the Qingmu Trail not far away also looked towards this side with his head and head, and couldn't help but wave:
"Qingmu, come here. Donghua, why did you come to see me so early in the morning?"
Looking at the blushing Qingmu and the somewhat nervous Donghua, Xie Heng asked with a smile:
"Tell me, you two little guys came to me instead of looking for your master. Do you need my uncle's help for something?"
Looking at Xie Heng with a smile on his face, Donghua seemed to muster up courage and said:
"Uncle Master, can we play with Xiaobai?"
After Donghua finished speaking, the two little guys looked at Xie Heng expectantly.
Xie Heng was also startled when he heard this. He looked at the two little Taoist priests in front of him. They were at the age where they loved to play. In addition, there were really no playmates of the same age in the Qingyang Palace. He couldn't help but sympathize with them.
Thinking of this, Xie Heng couldn't help but chuckle and said:
"Xiaobai is behind Ningbi Cliff, you go go and play with him."
"Really? Thank you, uncle."
"However, it's not up to me whether Xiaobai wants to play with you or not!"
"Disciple understands, let's go."
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, I didn't expect fellow Taoist to pity these two little disciples Pindao so much. Pindao would like to thank you here."
Taoist Mingyu came over and said gratefully to Xie Heng.
"My Taoist friends are serious. Looking at them, I am reminded of the teachings my master gave me back then. I also hope that these two little guys can maintain a clear Taoist mind, so that they can go further on the path of cultivation."
Xie Heng bowed his head slightly and said.
"Fellow Taoist, you are here right now. What's the matter?"
When Xie Heng asked, Taoist Mingyu immediately explained his purpose.
"A greeting card was sent from the Lord of Jinguan City's residence at the foot of the mountain. He said that the Lord of Shangguan City wanted to come and pay homage to fellow Taoist."
"Lord of Shangguan City, are you coming to visit me? Is there anything you can do?"
"Fellow Taoist, you know that there are no Qi practitioners in this wild world nowadays. The path of immortality is elusive, and all living beings in the world regard the theory of gods as the delusion of the ancients. Even poor Taoists are currently in the stage of refining and transforming Qi.
In their eyes, his cultivation level is just that of an ordinary Taoist priest with some means."
"Nowadays, the Dayu Empire is founded by force and occupies the most fertile Central Plains land of Dongsheng Shenzhou. Although the surrounding small countries rebel from time to time, most of them still submit to the Dayu court."
"Martial arts are very popular in the world, and people in the world focus on physical training. That day, my Taoist friends rode a crane to Shushan, and it was like an immortal coming to the world. How could the owner of Shangguan City ignore it as a pastor and guardian?"
Listening to Taoist Mingyu's explanation, Xie Heng raised his eyebrows and then said:
"If that's the case, then if Fellow Taoist Lao Mingyu can help me reply, I'll wait for the arrival of the city lord in Qingyang Palace."
Seeing Xie Heng agree, Mingyu also smiled slightly and said:
"If that's the case, then Pindao will make arrangements."
Looking at Taoist Mingyu's leaving figure, Xie Heng was determined to deduce the interaction between heaven and man just now. Unfortunately, this kind of interaction between heaven and man did not happen casually, so he could only shake his head helplessly.
Xie Heng stood on the Ningbi Cliff, looking at the men plowing and women weaving at the foot of the mountain, chickens and dogs hearing each other, and in Jinguan City, the aura of human beings rose to the sky. The magic power was flowing to his eyes, and the white human luck in Jinguan City automatically rose.
It rose up and enveloped the entire city with a breath of red dust.
Suddenly, a wisp of human destiny as thick as a chopstick seemed to be pulled by some kind of force and poured directly into Xie Heng's sea of consciousness. In the blink of an eye, it was attached to the waist of the innate soul and slowly wrapped around it, as if to wrap it around.
The whole soul is wrapped around itself.
In an instant, the treasure seal on Yuan Soul's head emitted a misty white light, like a thin layer of white gauze, wrapping Xie Heng's Yuan Soul even more tightly.
Sitting cross-legged in the center of the sea of chaotic consciousness, the Xiantian Yuanso began to recite the Tao Sutra silently on his own, his transparent Tao heart lit up slightly, and the Tao charm spread slowly around his body.
At this time, the entire Ningbi Cliff of Shu Mountain was entangled with an inexplicable Taoist rhyme that lingered for a long time.
Taoist Mingyu, who had just left, looked back and felt the inexplicable Taoist charm conveyed to him, and couldn't help but sigh:
"I didn't expect that Taoist friend Xie Heng was so talented that he actually attained enlightenment."
Then he ordered the Qingyang Palace Taoist who was standing by and said:
"I'm telling you, no one is allowed to go to Ningbi Cliff until Taoist friend Xie Heng completes his enlightenment."
