Chapter 916: In the Xuanfeng Palace, retreat again
In the afternoon, the sun was shining.
Under the peach tree, after Chen Jing saw the Qiankun gourd vine, he came to the edge of the courtyard.
There are many large bamboo trellises, covered with verdant vines, and yellow flowers bloom between the branches and leaves.
The gourds have bloomed, and this is the second batch of gourds, with more than a hundred plants in total.
The buzzing of bees is very noisy, and many colorful phantom bees fly among the vines, collecting nectar and pollinating melons.
Xiao Luo is elated, the melon flowers look ordinary, and the aroma is also very light, but the nectar in it is of a very high grade, which can be made into very good honey, and the little flower demon can also eat it.
There are also some small bamboo trellises next to them, and various small gourds hang under the vines on them.
These are the Heavenly Illusion Gourd Vines, there are more than 20 of them, and last year there was a batch of Heavenly Illusion Gourd blooming in the gourd field, and more than 20 of them produced the top Heavenly Fantasy Gourd and transplanted here.
It's a pity that there is no legendary-level heavenly magic gourd, in recent years, there are a lot of heavenly fantasy gourds, but the legendary-level gourds are not much, and the previous years can not be compared, before a batch of gourds bloomed, and finally produced two legendary gourds of thick soil gourd and blue water hyacinth, and last year's batch did not even come out of one.
I don't know if it's bad luck or some other reason, the appearance of the legendary-level Heavenly Illusion Gourd was originally relatively accidental, and Chen Jing couldn't figure it out.
There are more than 20 top-grade gourds in each batch, and there are more and more treasures in the mountain wall.
The huge cavern deep underground was filled with cold blue light waves.
The ground and the walls of the cave are covered with strange plants that emit a faint blue light, and the plants on the ground are particularly dense, emitting a shimmering light that connects together, like a peaceful lake.
In the center of the Blue Lake is a hemispherical transparent shield, and in the shield is a white jade palace.
In a white jade pavilion between the palaces, there is a middle-aged Taoist with fairy wind bones and long eyebrows and sideburns, who is the master of the heavenly wind.
Outside the window, the underground space is quiet, only the blue light waves ripple slightly.
Over the years, the Lingyan Mountain has been turned upside down, but the Xuanfeng Palace deep underground has not seen any changes.
Of course, there are changes, for example, there is a giant glowing flower on the top of the Taoist's head, and the white light emitted makes the light in the pavilion a little warmer.
A pleasant sound came from a white jade gourd on the table, breaking the silence in the underground cavern.
The sound is a high-grade jade sound gourd, which is much larger than the ordinary one, and the sound emitted in the gourd is more and more infectious.
Now there is a beautiful sound of running water coming from the gourd, like a stream originating from an iceberg flowing happily in the mountains, and occasionally crystal ice blocks collide in the water, making a tinkling sound.
The Venerable Man listened to the sound of flowing water and quietly thought about his thoughts.
The apprentices Chen Jing and Liu Fei'er would occasionally come to Xuanfeng Palace, while Zhou Yunxian, Qin Ye, Zhang Ling, and Su Caiyun rarely came.
Although the Xuanfeng Palace is magical, it is an underground cave after all, and there is no way to compare it with the vast world on the mountain, they prefer the courtyard under the peach tree and overgrown with strange flowers and plants.
The Venerable Tianfeng could understand that he, like the previous ancestors in the door, lived in the cave room when he went to Lingyan Mountain, and he had been cultivating in the Xuanfeng Palace since he built the foundation, and he had long been used to it.
And a few apprentices grew up in the mountains since childhood, so they naturally don't like to stay underground.
Lingyan Mountain should be considered a big boom now, of course, it is different from before.
Running the mountain gate is not something that the Taoist is interested in, he prefers to cultivate and comprehend the way of heaven.
The mountain will be handed over to the apprentices and grandchildren to toss, and it is better to be quiet in the Xuanfeng Palace.
The next morning, under the peach tree, the three of Tianfeng Shangren, Chen Jing and Liu Fei'er were talking.
"As a teacher, you have to retreat in the Xuanfeng Palace for a few years, and don't bother if you don't have anything important."
The man in the sky said lightly.
"Master, how long are you going to retreat?"
Liu Fei'er immediately asked, the last time the Heavenly Wind Venerable had been in retreat for nearly thirty years.
"It's hard to say, maybe a decade or two." The Heavenly Wind Master can't say for sure.
"One or twenty years......" Liu Feier muttered to herself.
"Master, are you going to advance to the late Yuan Infant Stage?" Chen Jing asked a little excitedly.
"Yes, there is such a plan, but it is uncertain whether it can be successful."
The Taoist said calmly.
"Late infancy?" Liu Fei'er was also happy when she heard it, if she could advance, one or twenty years would be a trivial matter.
"Master, let's have dinner together in the evening." Chen Jing suggested.
"Yes, but don't tell them I'm going to retreat."
Thinking that this retreat would take no telling how long it would take, the Venerable Heavenly Wind agreed.
"Good! Let me inform them. ”
Chen Jing used the spirit rhino to contact a few disciples, reminding them that if they had something to do to go to Xuanfeng Palace, they should hurry up.
He thought about it again, and several of his disciples had given them the Pure Wind Transformation Talisman, so there was nothing that Master needed to do before the retreat.
Most of the most precious materials on the mountain were stored in the treasure house of the sect in the Yuzhi Cave, and Chen Jing went to take out the materials that might be used in the next few decades.
In the evening, in the pavilion, the three masters and apprentices, the disciples and the little beasts gathered together and had a big meal.
Uncle Chen Jing didn't say why he ate a big meal, Zhou Yunxian was a little strange, and he usually had a name.
But maybe it's just that Uncle Shi is in high spirits today, and he cooks a few more delicious dishes.
Zhou Yunxian didn't think much about it, took out a pot of spirit wine, and sent it to the jade table of the Venerable Tianfeng, Chen Jing and Liu Fei'er, and said with a smile:
"This is the 'Green Lotus Wine' I just brewed, Master, Master, Master, you can taste it."
"Green Lotus Wine...... Let me see. The Venerable Master picked up the flask and poured a glass.
The ancestor is in a very high mood today, Zhou Yunxian thought to himself.
"Chirp." Xiao Lei screamed a little anxiously.
"Everybody try it." Zhou Yunxian said with a smile, took out more spirit wine, and divided it.
After the meal, Chen Jing and Liu Fei'er accompanied the Venerable Tianfeng to the boulder on the top of the mountain, and watched the master enter the Xuanfeng Palace.
The two brothers and sisters stood on the top of the mountain for a while before returning to the cave.
The next day, Chen Jing told several disciples the news of the Venerable Master's retreat:
"Your master is in retreat, and the Xuanfeng Palace is temporarily closed, don't bother."
"The master is in retreat?"
Zhou Yunxian felt that it was a little sudden, the people on the heavenly wind were elusive, and they often didn't see people, but they rarely retreated since she went up the mountain.
"How long does Master Ancestor have to go into retreat?" Qin Ye asked.
"Master Ancestor retreat, is it to advance to the late Yuan Infant Stage?" Zhang Ling guessed a little excitedly.
"It's impossible to say how long the retreat will last, you just know, don't bother, don't speculate, don't publicize it, you know?"
Chen Jingzhengse instructed that the retreat of the Venerable Master of the Heavenly Wind was a very important matter and must be kept secret.
Several disciples agreed in unison: "Got it!" ”
