Chapter 247: Lotus Picking Conference
When Hu and Xu were preparing to be sweet and sweet, you and I were carrying out the trilogy of ordinary couples' love, one after another the disappearance of the masters of various sects, the case of breaking into the underworld to save the mother, the case of tracing the origin of the life experience, and the case of finding the law and body followed, and the burden like Mount Tai was so heavy that the two of them couldn't breathe at all, and occasionally had leisure time to prepare for intimacy, either bumped in by this or interrupted by that.
Alas, in this world, is there a more unreliable relationship than the two of them?
Xu Ruoping couldn't help but think: If one day everything is over, I must find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, away from the mundane world, and quietly cultivate or farm with Hu Yihui.
Xu Ruoping suddenly had such a thought in her heart, the primordial infant in her body no longer grew, and she had been stuck in the realm of merging on the road to cultivation, unable to perceive the void.
She has committed the taboo of the Cave Void!
Insight into the void refers to seeing the surreal scene and realizing the realm of "emptiness" with the "power of nothingness", which originally means "quiet", without distracting thoughts in the mind, and without turbid consciousness in the mind, that is, bodhicitta and pure consciousness, truly cutting off one's thoughts and thoughts, cutting off all emotional threads, understanding the operation of the "rules of heaven", and achieving a powerful state that conforms to heaven and earth and the unity of heaven and man.
Xu Ruoping couldn't cut off the love thread, so in the next few days, no matter how much spring water she drank from the Fountain of Youth, how many snake galls she absorbed from the 'Seven Tricks' triangular snake, and how hard she worked to cultivate, the Yuan Infant in her body just didn't grow or change, and stuck her in the initial stage of the Merge Realm.
On this day of the summer solstice, the smoke wind is wrapped in the fragrance of flowers, and the noise of frogs and cicadas continues.
Peach Blossom Fort is thundering and golden gongs are ringing today, noisy and lively like a market where mortals rush to gather, and the centennial "Lotus Picking Conference" is coming as scheduled.
The big demons who rushed to sign up all dressed up, as if they were going to rub the red carpet, Xu Ruoping and his party didn't want to have a big contrast, so they also dressed up casually, not like before, dressed up like a beggar team.
It is expected that the law and order in Peach Blossom Fort should be stricter than elsewhere, so everyone feels that there is no need to deliberately pretend to be poor.
Who knew that Xu Hongbo, this kid, was actually dressed as a superb son, with a suit and leather shoes, a neatly sized tie, and a pair of leather shoes that could almost be used in the mirror.
Peach Blossom Fort is located in the middle of Maofeng Mountain, magnificent, majestic spirit, all the buildings are flying eaves and arches, carved windows and painted beams, the four walls are carved black teak windows, there are both the auspicious pictures of the crane with spring, the unicorn hitting the bell, the fish leaping dragon gate, the golden turtle Tuo Mountain, etc., and also carved with pine, plum, bamboo, chrysanthemum and other noble things.
The real powers of the ethereal land of the mountains and seas, such as Nuwa and Fuxi, have all been sanctified, and the Dao fruit has almost reached the peak of the realm, and they belong to the great power of a level higher than the level of the heavenly immortals-Da Luo Jin Xian, so they are no longer in the mountain and sea realm, and now the management of the Peach Blossom Castle is a group of unknown demons, and the name of the person in charge is Jade False Alarm, and he is a snake king who has been cultivated for tens of thousands of years.
It is said that when the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom was established in the inner world, Licang's father Hong Rui had no less help from the Jade False Alarm.
Jade False Alarm made a big Zhuangzi that could accommodate tens of thousands of people in the Peach Blossom Castle, and many demon cultivators turned into the appearance of family members, shuttling back and forth, maintaining the order of the big Zhuangzi in an orderly manner.
A road paved with white marble stretches all the way out, as long as you come to the vicinity of Peach Blossom Castle, you almost don't need to ask, you can find Da Zhuangzi along this jade belt-like avenue.
Like the 'martial arts conference' held in the TV series, a large group of demon guards who are not weak in cultivation are usually equipped at the entrance of Da Zhuangzi, all with swords and swords, neatly lined up on both sides, with tiger eyes and round eyes, and a sharp blade-like gaze swept around the demon cultivators, dignified and powerful.
The first time Xu Hongbo saw this kind of scene that only appeared when the TV played Xianxia dramas, he was excited to worship Peng Bai, and looked around all the way, comparable to Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
Jun Wushang walked with him, and was annoyed by his buzzing 'questions' from time to time, but fortunately, Jun Wushang's temper didn't want to be as impatient as a unicorn and a phoenix, otherwise, he would definitely have to fight with him several times on the way.
Xu Ruoping and Phoenix walked side by side, silently walking in the middle.
The unicorn was very cautious, and after breaking off automatically, he looked around carefully as he walked.
There are a lot of beautiful female demon cultivators in front of the way, and it doesn't take long for everyone to walk into a peach forest.
The peach blossoms are blooming one after another, the petals are crystal clear, like a piece of transparent pink jade, the sun and rain are sprinkled on it, sparkling, dazzling you, unable to distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.
Qilin observed for a long time, and used his divine sense to transmit the voice to everyone: "Everyone be careful not to touch and touch, and don't run around. The peach trees in this peach forest look chaotic, in fact, the position of each peach tree in it is staggered, it is an ancient formation, and if you do not follow the rules, you will be trapped here. The peach blossoms are even more weird, and each flower is made with an ancient secret method, and I don't know if it is poisonous or not. ”
Xu Hongbo just stretched out his hand to break a peach blossom, and was following Jun Wushang's ass and chattering: "Brother Wushang, you say this flower is strange, such a large peach forest, there is not even a butterfly bee." ”
As soon as the words fell, he heard the whisper of the unicorn in his ears, and he was so frightened that he quickly threw the peach branch away.
There is more than one road in the peach forest, and it extends in all directions like a spider web, Xu Hongbo did not dare to give birth to a moth, and followed the pace of the large army closely.
All the demons who participated in the competition quietly followed the beauties who led the way, and finally passed through a crystal clear warm corridor, and they were all welcomed into a large terrace with a light cyan tone.
This terrace is comparable to a dozen football fields, the huge white marble carved stone steps, divided into southeast and northwest seem to stand a large pillar hugged by a few people, the column surface is carved with gold dragon and phoenix, the glittering gold is dazzling, there is a huge copper tripod at the top of the big column, the hill is general, the red flame is burning brightly.
The person in charge of the 'Lotus Picking Conference' is not on this terrace, but on the pavilion halfway up the other mountain, looking at each other from afar.
A big demon with a big waist and a round waist and a light green beard stood on the pavilion halfway up the mountain opposite, reciting the rules of the competition in a thick nasal voice: "Hello everyone! Warmly welcome everyone to our Peach Blossom Castle's 'Lotus Picking Conference' every 100 years." As we all know, the Mixed Yuan Golden Lotus Seed has the miraculous effect of reshaping the flesh, so the treasure knife should be used on the blade, and only the demon clan power that has reached the peak of cultivation can be worthy of my demon clan's holy relics. I will not introduce the others one by one, and I will recite the rules of the competition of the "Lotus Picking Conference", I hope that the contestants must listen clearly, otherwise they will be disqualified from participating in the competition, and they will never be allowed to step into the Peach Blossom Castle.

Read it out!"
This demon has plenty of qi in it, and the two mountains are far apart, but they can't stop the sound of its speech, and every word and every word clearly pierces into the ears of all the demons present, buzzing.
Xu Ruoping, Xu Hongbo, Jun Wushang, Qilin and Phoenix were in a group, Xu Hongbo stepped forward to draw the blue lot, and came to an open space according to the guide.
A moment later, the five big demons who also drew the blue lottery were also led here.
These five demons are dressed very strangely, wearing colorful ethnic minority costumes, and they also have a very exaggerated face painted on their faces, looking like Hua Dan who is ready to sing on stage.
The body height is the same, and the blue color is female.
In order not to be discovered that they are gods, Qilin and Phoenix put away their cultivation and followed them mainly just in case, and they couldn't make plans in the fight.
Although Xu Hongbo has been cultivating hard recently, he is only half-baked at best, and he is used to fill up the numbers.
The only ones left are Jun Wushang and Xu Ruoping.
Although Jun Wushang has practiced Taoism for hundreds of years, Xu Ruoping's cultivation is all superior exercises, plus the assistance of various pills, and his current cultivation is far beyond him.
Qilin had already quietly swept it with his divine sense when Xu Ruoping introduced him to the other party, frowning and sending a message to the four people present: "It's strange, the other party is actually dressed by the human race, and he is a disciple of the Mo clan." ”
Qilin has lived in the heavenly realm for a long time, and he doesn't know that the Mo clan has been passed down to Mo Qiyan's generation, and he doesn't know that Mo Qiyan founded the Minlian Red Sect in the surface world, and he doesn't know about Mo Qiyan's descendant disciple 'Five Flower Boy'.
Xu Ruoping knew, she was shocked when she heard this, and asked urgently: "Why are they here, why do they want to snatch the 'Mixed Yuan Golden Lotus Seed'?"
Xu Hongbo was afraid that she would be distracted and accidentally defeated, so he reminded her: "Sister, whatever, everyone will chase the treasures." Who doesn't want to leave a way back for their own calamity, don't be distracted, and concentrate on the battle. ”
Xu Ruoping intuitively felt that this matter was not simple, and wanted to argue, but saw that the other party had already threatened to make a move.
Hurriedly put away his mind, skillfully stepped on the nine palace gossip steps, and met the other party's provocation head-on with everyone.
The real names of the five-flower boy are red, orange, yellow, green, and green, and they also step on the nine palace gossip steps, and the five of them are quite consistent regardless of their demeanor and rhyme.
