Time has passed, and about three years have passed since Li Haocheng stayed in Shuangqingchi.

During this time, Li Haocheng went out several times in the name of retreat to arrange some traces of half-truths and half-truths, which can be regarded as completely whitewashing his identity.

At the same time, he also used various methods to knock on the whereabouts of the runes left here by the Lingtai Patriarch, but without exception, they were all just useless rumors.

On this day, Li Haocheng, who was sitting in the eye of the water in Shuangqing Pond, suddenly looked up at the southern sky, and saw a burning cloud sweeping the sky, seemingly moving slowly, but in a blink of an eye, it fell on the upside-down lotus peak.

What is going on? Li Haocheng's brows furrowed slightly, the aura of the fire cloud was strong, no worse than Xu Yuantong, obviously a half-step monk, he was still curious about who came to Xu Yuantong, and after a while, he received a message from Xu Yuantong.

Li Haocheng looked at it, stepped on the water, went upside down on the lotus peak, and just entered the Xu Yuantong Cave Mansion, he saw a middle-aged Taoist wearing a red dragon pattern robe.

"This person is my friend, nicknamed Fire Dragon Zhenjun!" Xu Yuantong pointed to the middle-aged Taoist and spoke, Li Haocheng arched his hand, and then looked at Xu Yuantong and asked: "Daoist friend came to me, won't it be to introduce Fire Dragon Daoist friend to me!"

"Haha! I think that Daoyou is the inheritor of the Xuanwu Zhenren in the past, Li Haocheng Li Daoyou!" "Huolong Daoist laughed and explained: "This time, I actually came to find this guy to go to the Lingyan Festival, who wants this guy to push back, saying that his own practice has reached a bottleneck, and it is not easy to go, I asked again and again, and he proposed to let Daoyou go to see the world." ”

"Lingyan Festival?" Li Haocheng repeated with some curiosity.

"Haha! I almost forgot that you just came out of the mountain, and you didn't know about the existence of the Lingyan Festival. The Fire Dragon Daoist just opened his mouth and explained: "This Spirit Rock Dharma Meeting was held three hundred years ago by the Sword Pavilion Dharma Minister, and it is a communication platform for the righteous path to practice with us......

"Don't listen to his nonsense, the Spirit Rock Festival is actually a method for the Sword Pavilion to suppress the rest of the righteous path sects and our scattered cultivation. At the same time that Xu Yuantong opened his mouth in the Fire Dragon Dao, he also sent a message to Li Haocheng: "Every time the Dharma meeting is held, the real people of the Sword Pavilion will take out some rare treasures and secret techniques of crossing the catastrophe as bait, and let me go to gamble and fight, so as to devour our qi. ’

"Then why do you want to invite the fire dragon Taoist to go?" Li Haocheng was a little surprised, this kind of thing will not interfere with anyone with a clear eye, even if he wants to go, he will definitely not pull his friend into the water, but looking at the posture, Xu Yuantong doesn't seem to blame the fire dragon Daoist, he thought about it and asked: "But at the Lingyan Festival, what is the need for the fire dragon Daoist?"

Xu Yuantong didn't hide it, and said bluntly: "Well, the fire dragon's vein is the same as mine, it is all from the Demon Dao, and his Nine Flame Fire Dragon Law is reversed from the Demon Dao Nine Yan Demon Dragon Law Phase, but compared to my vein, the fire dragon guy is even more pitiful. I don't know which generation of their ancestors calculated that in addition to the problem, the successive generations will suffer from dragon fire every once in a while, and the extremely cold nectar at the Lingyan Festival is specially prepared for him. ’

"Then there are also things that Daoists need at the festival!" Li Haocheng instantly understood the idea of the righteous path, they were doing what Jiang Taigong fished for the bait, as long as you need it, you must go to the puja, and it is difficult to threaten the forces of the righteous path.

'Listening to what the Fire Dragon Daoist said, this time they prepared a secret technique for me to reverse yin and yang. Xu Yuantong sneered, and then said with some gratitude: "This time, I am also grateful to Daoist friends for deducing the secret technique for me, if nothing else, after ten years, I will be able to eliminate most of the aftermath of the power of water and fire of the Nine Infants, and I will be one step closer to the Fa Xiang." ”

"Then what should I do when I go?" Li Haocheng, as a "budding newcomer", appropriately showed his trust in Xu Yuantong, making it even more difficult for Xu Yuantong to deceive him.

Xu Yuantong is not a sinister villain, he thought for a while and said, "After you go to the festival, don't do anything, just watch." Although the Sword Pavilion has the intention to suppress us and others, it is impossible for this kind of thing to be blatant, so as long as the Lingyan Festival does not end the fight, it is still good to make friends and broaden your horizons!"

"However, why do Fire Dragon Daoists have to go to Daoyou?" Li Haocheng asked another question.

'The fire dragon's heart-burning suffering, in addition to a specific time, will also appear every time the mana is pushed to the limit, so he wants to find someone to help protect the Fa. ’

When Li Haocheng heard this, he turned his head and communicated with the Fire Dragon Daoist who had just finished speaking.

The Fire Dragon Dao people are not unclear, when he spoke, Xu Yuantong and Li Haocheng exchanged things, but he was asking for others, so naturally it was not good to say anything, after the two chatted for a while, they said goodbye to Xu Yuan, and drove to Lingyan Mountain.

Following the Fire Dragon Dao people, up to Lingyan Mountain, Li Haocheng found that this festival was about to start, and at a glance, he saw that the festival was divided into the center, and there were hundreds of people sitting on the left and right, among which there were many righteous monks on the left, and scattered cultivators on the right.

This Fang Heaven and Earth is different from Jiuzhou, and there are only three ways to determine the scattered cultivation and the righteous path, that is, the purity of mana, the inheritance of the Dao lineage, and whether to open a government and establish a sect.

If it is simply divided according to the first two, Li Haocheng's identity as the inheritor of the Xuanwu lineage also belongs to one of the righteous paths, but because the Xuanwu lineage has never opened a government and established a school, it cannot be called a disciple of the righteous path.

And the dozen or so monks in front of him, although their aura is not evil and vicious, they are definitely not very decent, according to the division of heaven and earth, it is obviously the most authentic and loose cultivation.

"Where did the Fire Dragon True Monarch find this Daoist friend, he has an awe-inspiring aura, and he is not worse than the disciples of the Sword Pavilion!" A chuckle sounded behind him, Li Haocheng turned his head to look, and saw a woman dressed as a young woman with a flower basket in her hand.

This woman is full of clear air, blue light and restrained, surging mana, better than the Fire Dragon Dao people, pure breath, compared to Li Haocheng's external performance, faintly better than one point.

"I've seen the fairy girl. The Fire Dragon Daoist said, introducing Li Haocheng to the woman in front of him: "This Li Haocheng Daoist is the next-generation descendant of Xuanwu Zhenren, and this time he will participate in the Lingyan Dharma Conference on behalf of Xu Yuantong." ”

After speaking, the Fire Dragon Daoist also introduced the woman in front of him to Li Haocheng: "This is Baihua Immortal Gu, although she is known as one of the Seven Great Masters of Scattered Cultivation along with me and Xu Yuantong, in fact, she is an authentic disciple of the Immortal Dao like you, and she is much better than me and Xu Yuantong in terms of strength and cultivation." ”

"It turned out to be the descendant of Xuanwu Zhenren, which is really a blessing. ”

"I've seen the fairy girl. Li Haocheng also bowed his hand slightly.

"I thought I would be the latest to arrive this time, but I didn't expect to have the two of you with me, let's sit together!" Baihua Fairy Gu said, walking towards the front seven seats on the right.

Li Haocheng was about to sit in the fifth position when he heard a cold snort: "How can a mere eightfold monk with an exterior scene be qualified to sit with several great grandmasters?

Before the words fell, Li Haocheng saw the flames burning on the seat, Li Haocheng chuckled, his sleeves moved slightly, and five waves of white water rotated around him, pressing down the flames, and he was about to sit down.

Li Haocheng sat down without changing his face, and the five white water waves closed inward at the same time, turning into a water lotus flower to change and bloom, and as Li Haocheng sat down, the peach blossoms were all turned into vitality around Li Haocheng, forming a black and white aura, and defending the next few Taoist techniques.

"Hmph!" The few casual cultivators below who were on the scene of the Nine Heavens, after they missed, each snorted coldly, not paying attention to Li Haocheng, and Li Haocheng didn't bother to bother with them, and turned his head to communicate with the Fire Dragon Daoist and the Hundred Flowers Fairy Gu.

Baihua Immortal Gu is sleek and tall, and after a while, she introduced the rest of the seven positions to Li Haocheng.

Sitting in the first seat is Han Xiao, a half-step Dharma Phase Realm monk, the oldest of the seven great masters, who has practiced for more than 800 years, Tianhe Dharma Phase, mystical and mysterious, and powerful mana, far better than the other six great masters of scattered cultivation.

Mirror Dao people, ranked second among the seven great masters, Minshan Wansongling Chaotian Guanguan, is also a half-step phase realm, Taixu Treasure Mirror Phase, and his cultivation is slightly better than that of Baihua Immortal Gu.

Wei Bagong, ranked sixth among the seven great masters, half-step phase realm cultivation, founder of the Zhushan Sect.

Dong Xuan Immortal Woman, although her qualifications are second only to Daming Zhenren among the seven great grandmasters, she is ranked last, a half-step phase realm monk, and the guardian of the Miao Jiang lineage.
