Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 281 The First Punishment
Ruixue Peak.

This peak and Dangxia Peak are facing each other from a distance. There is a yin energy on the shady side of the mountain. It is caused by the extreme yang fire and the inherent yin coldness. Therefore, the spiritual energy is quite rich, and the sunny side appears to be a balance of water and fire.

On the sunny side, halfway up the mountain, there was a small courtyard. A woman in a lavender dress opened the door, looked at the sky, and seeing that it was a windless and rainless day, she entered the treasure room on the side.

In the center of the room stood a green three-legged treasure furnace with a blue fire burning in it. Zhang Yiwan gathered her hair, took out a jade slip, put in the medicinal stones according to the proportions, and watched the fire intently.

"When water and fire are in harmony, medicine and stone complement each other."

Alchemy is a meticulous job that requires observing the celestial phenomena, checking the geographical conditions, and most importantly, considering the people.

Zhang Yiwan thought she was a patient person, but looking at the flames in the furnace, she couldn't help feeling a little irritated. However, when she thought about what would happen after refining the elixir, she calmed down again.

"Today there is no wind or rain, the sun is warm but not fierce, bright but not scorching. Let the Southern Green Wood draw the Qi of the victorious metal, the son, and let the Moist Yellow Mud serve as the foundation of the subdued earth, the mother."

"[Falling Star Fire Essence] is divided into twelve paths, each receiving medicinal properties, and ultimately becomes [Bright God Long Qi Powder]."

She checked again and found that the overall process was correct, but when it was completed and the furnace was opened, a burst of black smoke came out, and the original few spiritual herbs had turned into a handful of ashes.

"?"

Zhang Yiwan didn't know what went wrong, and frowned slightly. She took out the ashes and observed them carefully. She then took out a bottle of dark blue spiritual water and poured a drop on it. Fine silver lightning emerged from the ashes.

"Is this She Lei? No, how did I make this?"

Zhang Yiwan looked puzzled. She actually managed to refine a little bit of social thunder. Did she need to ask the sect leader for instructions?
But before her doubts were dispelled, she heard a burst of thunder from the sky, which continued non-stop. She thought it was the leader returning to the mountain, but the noise continued and seemed strange.

Walking out of the courtyard, I saw that the monks on various peaks in the mountain were in a bit of a mess, most of them looking up at the sky. Zhang Yiwan looked in the direction and saw that there seemed to be a crack in the sky, and the inside was like a broken mirror.

"This is Taixu?"

She was shocked. To break through and maintain Taixu, it must be Zifu who took action. The scene in the sky at this time, could it be that a real person has arrived?

Riding the wind, he headed straight for the peak, and saw Zhang Gaoxia had walked out of the courtyard, looking up at the sky with a serious expression.

"Yiwan." Zhang Gaoxia nodded slightly when he saw the newcomer. "I don't know what happened, but the scene in the sky is unusual."

"I'm afraid it's some real person coming."

Zhang Yiwan sighed softly, and now she understood a little. It turned out that when the Taixu hole in the sky opened up earlier, it did not receive the pure Yang Qi of Shengjin. It was probably disturbed by the Qi in the crack.

However, what remains in the ashes are community thunders. Why is that?
In the cracks of Taixu, golden light shone and turned into a road that stretched out. A team of silver-armored gods stepped out and stood on both sides, each holding a weapon. The leader waved a large flag with the word "Li" in it.

From this golden avenue, a man in white armor walked out slowly. He had a heroic appearance and an extraordinary bearing. He stepped on layers of silver lightning. He was a monk from She Lei.

The man paused, then unfolded a golden edict, burning with apricot-yellow flames, and said in a clear voice:
"According to the order of the Dali [Xuan Lei Department], from today on, the title of Da Chi Guan Master is added, and Xu Xuan is the [Heavenly Thunder Messenger] of Chiyun County. He will be in charge of everything, whether it is windy or rainy, clear or bright, and all matters of good and evil in the immortal way."

"Is Xu Xuan here? Come quickly to receive the order."

A silver lightning bolt rose from Tianqing Peak and instantly landed in front of the man. Xu Xuan had heard the movement outside the mountain a long time ago, but he was just watching the situation develop. He never expected that the other party would do such a thing.

"Song Shiming?"

When Xu Xuan saw the other person's appearance, he was puzzled. The armored man in front of him was none other than Song Shiming, a descendant of the Emperor's family of Yongjietian, who had a conflict with Xiao Xueya.

At present, the other party's cultivation has reached the late stage of foundation building. He stands in this golden avenue, with a strong golden aura of incense behind him, which is extraordinary and magical.

"How dare you kneel down and accept my order!"

Several silver-armored gods on the side shouted harshly, making Xu Xuan's eyes gloomy. However, Song Shiming just waved his hand and said with a smile:

"Why are you kneeling, Sword Immortal? Master Xu, just accept the order."

Xu Xuan did not move, but said softly:
"I don't know what this means. What is the position of [Heavenly Thunder Messenger]?"

The sudden appearance of this so-called [Xuan Lei Division] was so unexpected that Xu Xuan couldn't figure out the other party's intentions for a while.

"Shelei are hard to find. Now my [Xuan Lei Department] is short of manpower. As a Shelei Sword Immortal, Master Xu should do his best for Dali." Song Shiming had a faint smile on his face. "A senior official from the Taizhen Sect has high hopes for you and has vouched for you with us, so you got this position." Xu Xuan's eyes darkened slightly, but he thought to himself:
"This man, a ghost sent by a millionaire, certainly has bad intentions, but I can't go along with his wishes."

He showed some hesitation at the moment, and said in a deep voice:
"I have no intention of controlling thunder. I am grateful for the kindness of the masters of the [Mysterious Thunder Department], but it is better to find someone else to be the envoy."

Song Shiming had a look of surprise on his face. He had promoted many thunder cultivators into the department one after another, and they were all ecstatic. None of them refused. Even the thunder cultivators from the community were recruited.

Originally, Xu Xuan's rank was ahead, but because he involved Chi Yun and belonged to another lineage's plan, it was difficult to include him. Now that Taizhenzong has guaranteed him, Song Shiming came to see the abbot on the orders of several adults.

"Master Xu, please don't misunderstand. My position as this envoy will not affect the affairs of your temple."

Song Shiming was not angry at this time. He was more fond of talents. If he could recruit a Shelei Sword Immortal, it would undoubtedly be a great help to the department.

"You have a connection with the Sijie Mansion. Now that Dali is determined to rebuild the Thunder Palace, why not help?"

"The positions of the Five Thunder Messengers are mostly sinecures. There is no need to join the army and wait for orders. Just stay in one place. The master of the temple will not consider it. In the future, when I, the Great Li Divine Dao, descend, every mountain and every river will have a divine position. Then, Chi Yun will be managed by someone else."

There were some different meanings implied in Song Shiming's words, and his attitude was very obvious. If Xu Xuan was unwilling, then he could find someone else, and then it would not be so comfortable.

"Promise him." Tiantuo suddenly spoke in a serious tone, "The thunder energy in you has been activated, and the technique may end here."

Xu Xuan's heart was shocked. He still remembered what Tiantuo said, that as long as the luck of the Thunder Palace was added to him, the destiny would come to him, but he had never thought that it would be in this way.

"In that case, I will obey your order."

He no longer hesitated and agreed. Song Shiming smiled kindly and handed the golden decree to Xu Xuan, saying softly:
"Xu Jianxian is now under my jurisdiction. On weekdays, I just observe the weather and manage good and evil. Dali's immortal laws have not yet been finalized, so there is no need to worry too much. Everything can proceed as usual."

"Because the law of liberation has not yet been established, the divine way of my [Xuan Lei Department] can only take care of the imperial capital area, but..."

Song Shiming flipped his hand and took out a small silver square seal with the words "Thunder" engraved on it, and handed it to Xu Xuan. This thing looked like a magic weapon and also like a divine thought. It was extremely strange and reminded Xu Xuan of the "Yuyou Order".

"According to the regulations, Master Xu can now accept believers and create golden statues on his own. He can raise a group of heavenly soldiers, up to thirty-six of them. This item was obtained for you by the masters of the Taizhen Sect. Master, please don't forget it."

Song Shiming's expression became slightly serious, but Xu Xuan became even more confused. Wan Jin was so attentive, but what bad intentions did he have?

"There are no special orders this time, but there is one thing I hope the master will not forget."

"please say."

Xu Xuan looked normal, but he had some guesses in his mind, and he felt that it was related to the martial arts technique.

"When Taibai passes through the sky, my [Xuan Lei tribe] will conduct the first great punishment. All envoys must go to witness the ceremony and do not miss it." Song Shiming's eyes brightened. "Then someone from my tribe will come to take you there. Master of the temple, please be prepared."

"I wonder what kind of person they are going to torture?"

Xu Xuan asked in a deep voice, since it is an execution, there must be a criminal.

"He was once a criminal imprisoned in the Thunder Palace. He fell into the hands of my [Mysterious Thunder Tribe]. His past sins have not yet been atoned for, so it is up to us to deal with them."

Song Shiming's voice of sighing reminded Xu Xuan of what he had seen in Zijin Temple before. Wanjin handed the token to him, and he saw a living being in the sky prison.

"Could it be this person?"

He was about to ask more questions when Song Shiming had already bid farewell and returned to the void with the other gods and strong men.

Xu Xuan held the golden edict tightly. He felt as if something was falling on him from nowhere. The magical power of [Purple Mystery Attraction Technique] continued to rise. In just a short moment, the progress exceeded his hard training in these days.

"There are signs of Shelei Gongfa, and there are also changes in the East China Sea. I'm afraid it is related to Xiao Wen. As for Yuanshang..."

His eyes were a little gloomy. He was really exhausted by all the affairs piled up at once. However, now that he had taken on the position of Heavenly Thunder Messenger, he might as well make use of it. At least the so-called Shinto incense and the technique of training heavenly soldiers could be put to use.

The lightning dissipated, the sky became bright, the void was filled, and everything was peaceful again.
