Chapter 394 Meeting Friends at Zixiao Palace
Outside the nine heavens, the Zixiao Palace, the Taoist temple of Taoist ancestor Hongjun, is hidden on the edge of chaos and is invisible to all living beings.
At this moment, two figures stepped out from the void and appeared in front of the Zixiao Palace.
Both of them were dressed in blue, but their temperaments were completely different. The man had a gentle temperament and was quite approachable, but his presence was a little weak, and his aura naturally disappeared between heaven and earth, becoming unpredictable.
The woman has a cool temperament and a calm expression, and her eyes are full of beauty, as if they can illuminate everything and see through everything, yet she is aloof and yet not pleasing to the eye. Her presence is impossible to ignore, especially when the two of them stand together.
The seemingly completely different temperaments make each other's existence more clearly highlighted, and yet they are so harmonious and natural.
Qingxuan took Qinglian to visit the underworld, reminisced with Houtu, saw the evolution of the underground, and then came to Zixiao Palace.
The two men did not conceal their aura, and their arrival was immediately noticed by the owner of this place, and the gate of Zixiao Palace opened.
"Since the two Taoist friends are here, please come in and have a chat." The voice of Taoist Patriarch Hongjun came from inside.
At the same time, the gazes coming from among them came from two people.
Qingxuan didn't mind this, and walked through the gate into Zixiao Palace with Qinglian.
As the Taoist ancestor, Hongjun doesn't even have a Taoist boy serving him now. This Zixiao Palace is really deserted.
However, the entire Zixiao Palace is an innate spiritual treasure, filled with an extremely rich aura of the Heavenly Dao, making it appear mysterious and extraordinary without losing the style of the Taoist Ancestor.
If not, how could Qing Xuan have thought of refining an innate spiritual treasure palace as a cave? It's a pity that it has not taken shape yet.
In fact, for beings like them, innate spiritual treasures do not have much use, and even the so-called immortal spiritual light can hardly be called immortal.
"There is nothing in my palace to entertain you two. I hope you won't mind my neglect." Hongjun said with a smile as he looked at Qingxuan and the other two who had arrived.
Qingxuan waved his hand. He didn't mind it at all.
Besides, they are so familiar with each other that being too polite would seem awkward.
Of course, there was not even an extra cushion in the Zixiao Palace, which made Qingxuan speechless.
When visiting a fellow Taoist’s cave, I even have to prepare my own cushion.
The two cushions were obviously taken away by Haotian and Yaochi, leaving only one which Hongjun used for meditation.
"One day I will give you a few cushions to entertain guests. What do you think?"
Qingxuan walked closer, took out two cushions and put them down, asked Qinglian to sit down, and began to speak.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, fellow Taoist." Hongjun did not refuse.
Qing Xuan looked at the person sitting opposite Hong Jun and asked with a smile, "Where is Daoist friend?"
Taoist Yangmei glanced at Qingxuan, snorted coldly, took out a cushion and ignored Qingxuan.
Qingxuan shook his head, didn't bother with it, and sat down next to Qinglian.
"Fellow Daoist, you have come at the right time. Didn't you tell fellow Daoist Yangmei about the problems of the prehistoric world? Now fellow Daoist Yangmei is looking for me to seek an explanation because he is accusing me of deceiving him." Hongjun asked Qingxuan.
Qing Xuan showed surprise on his face: "Didn't you two Daoists talk about this when you were reminiscing about the past? I thought you would tell him, so I won't say much."
"Really? I thought fellow Taoist and Yang Mei had already discussed this matter, so... it was my fault that I neglected it." Hongjun said with a wry smile.
The two looked at each other, both calm.
"You two, stop being so hypocritical! Do you really think I'm blind? Ha!"
However, Taoist Yangmei could only sneer at the conversation between Qingxuan and Hongjun.
He is not a fool, who are these two trying to fool?
“Don’t think that it can be exposed so easily. You need to give me an explanation. You have harmed me so much and didn’t say a word about the axe that was left behind!” Taoist Yangmei said gritting his teeth.
Neither Qingxuan nor Hongjun told him that there were such dangers left in the ancient times. Otherwise, wouldn't it be better for him to stay in the chaos?
Although he agreed to the matter at that time, he was blocked by Qingxuan and the other two and could not escape.
But if I had known that the situation would be like this, I would have fought Qingxuan and the other two to the death. The danger would not be greater than what I am facing now.
Hongjun's smile faded, and he stared at Taoist Yang Mei and said, "I wonder what you want to say?"
Taoist Yang Mei was silent. What did he mean? He just couldn't get rid of his anger.
"We are all fellow Taoists. Now that things have come to this, we should stick together. Let the past be the past. It will not help to worry about it. The present and the future are the key." Qingxuan advised.
Taoist Yang Mei turned around and glared at Qing Xuan. His long eyebrows moved slightly. He raised his hand and pointed at Qing Xuan and the other person, then looked at Hong Jun:
"These two are also pure Hun Yuan Daoists. You just leave them alone and harm me?"
Qinglian looked at Yang Mei's hand and frowned, and Qingxuan hurriedly grabbed it.
However, Taoist Yang Mei's gaze fell on Qing Xuan again at this time: "Where is your pseudo-Dao fruit of the Way of the Sage?"
What made Taoist Yang Mei extremely unhappy was that Qingxuan forced him to come to the prehistoric world, but now Qingxuan and the other person were not bound by the prehistoric world and were in a completely perfect state of Hunyuan.
Doesn't this mean that I can stay out of these two people's affairs? What is this?
"My fellow Daoist also said that it was a fake Dao fruit. There are only a few saints in the prehistoric world. Wouldn't it be a waste if my fake Dao fruit occupied a position? Out of a little selfishness, I gave this fortune to my disciples. I am ashamed." Qingxuan responded.
"Don't worry, fellow Taoist. I have already told you that we are of the same path, and I am not lying."
Taoist Yang Mei looked at him with a serious expression: "What do you mean by that?"
"As fellow Daoists, we should advance and retreat together. Daoist friend, don't worry. This is true for both of us and Daoist friend Hongjun."
Taoist Yang Mei's eyes wandered between Qingxuan and the other two, but he was quite suspicious of Qingxuan and the other two.
He had no doubt that Hongjun would not be able to stay out of it, but Qingxuan and the other two were both Hunyuan, which was different from Hongjun.
Facing Taoist Yangmei's suspicious gaze, Qingxuan looked at it calmly, smiled and did not explain.
They can indeed keep themselves out of trouble, but only if someone really lets them go.
Moreover, there will be no chance to obtain the good fortune that belongs to Qinglian again.
Taoist Yangmei was silent. He didn't know that Qingxuan and the other two were bound in such shackles, but he understood Hongjun.
Judging from Hongjun's attitude towards the two of them, it was obvious that Qingxuan was telling the truth.
Of course, the depression of being deceived still hasn't dissipated.
"Why do you have to be like this, fellow Daoist? It's just an axe, it's not unsolvable, right?" Qingxuan said.
When Taoist Yang Mei heard this, instead of being comforted, his face turned black.
Just an axe? Because he had faced Pangu's axe before, he knew how terrifying it was.
Three thousand Chaos Demons, aren't they powerful enough?
But what happened?
It is said to be one axe, but actually when you reach that level, it makes no difference how many axes you use; what it represents is the difference in levels.
What's more, this axe of enlightenment is even more powerful than the one that killed three thousand Chaos Demons.
That's why he was so annoyed, and it even seemed to him that it was impossible to stop it.
"If you have never really faced him, you don't know how terrifying he is."
"However, your Daoist heart has been left with a shadow, which is not good for your Daoist path."
"..."
Taoist Yangmei did not refute. Those who did not suffer any psychological trauma after being hit by Pangu's axe were those who were already dead and would never have the chance to suffer any psychological trauma.
"If you succeed at this moment and your Dao heart is complete, you will be able to make further progress." Qingxuan continued.
But the prerequisite is that you can really hold on, Yang Mei thought to himself.
"Moreover, this is his way of transcendence. Don't you really want to see the results of his performance? What you gain from watching is limited after all. It is better to experience more in person. This is the opportunity of the Great Dao, and this is not an empty statement."
Taoist Yang Mei sighed: "Now that things have come to this, what else can I say?"
"It's too late to say anything. Fellow Daoist, you should let go of the past. Compared with Taoist Shichen, you have more potential to achieve great things." Hongjun said, causing Yang Mei to glare at him.
Qingxuan took out the immortal wine brewed with innate spiritual roots, and also took out a set of jade cups, and the aroma of wine filled the air.
"It's a rare opportunity for fellow Taoists to meet here. We should enjoy wine and discuss Taoism. How about I treat you two?"
Hongjun smiled and nodded, of course he would not object.
Taoist Yang Mei also knew that things had no control over him at this point, so he reached out and snatched the wine from Qing Xuan's hand and poured himself a glass.
Qingxuan smiled and took out a lot of fairy wine. He brewed a lot of it in his spare time, and there were many varieties.
He didn't drink much on ordinary days, probably even less than what his disciples drank secretly, and even less when he drank with others.
However, it must be said that drinking is very effective in dispelling grudges. How can a fellow Taoist who enjoys wine and meat not be considered a fellow Taoist?
