Gou Dao Changsheng: Starting from the Reincarnation of a Demon Cultivator

Chapter 260: Secret Order
"The winner of this Dharma Assembly is Fang Yi from Xuanyang Mountain."

Xia Zhengbai waved the whisk in his hand and pointed at Fang Yi and the medicine cauldron in front of him that was emitting medicinal fragrance.

"Friend Fang is an expert in medicine, and he is the perfect match for what Fengling Immortal City needs."

Clearing his throat, Xia Zhengbai looked at Fang Yi, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, after the Chenglu Dharma Assembly is over, you and I can have a chat."

"How is this possible!" Situ Zhong's face turned pale when he heard that the winner was not him.

He shook his hands and spoke angrily.

"Fang Yi only treated two cultivators, which is only half of what I did! Brother Xia, what are you doing... what are you doing..."

Although Situ Zhong hadn't finished his words, the cultivators present were all astute. How could they not have known that his words hinted at Fengling Immortal City's hidden manipulation?

Master Xiang Shu was a burly man wearing armor. He stepped out from behind Xia Zhengbai.

His muffled voice echoed on the terrace.

"Situ Zhong, are you saying that Fengling Fairy City is unfair?"

The body refining skills of the late foundation-building period were no longer restrained, the hot blood surged, and the terrifying pressure covered him.

"A great cultivator in the late Foundation Establishment stage!!"

"No...no..."

The pressure from Master Xiang Shu, a great cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, was like a bone-chilling cold spring, instantly waking Situ Chong up.

But thinking of the benefits promised by Master Qingfeng, he gritted his teeth and asked.

“I’m just a little confused about the twelve monks who are suffering from severe cold poison.

I cured four, Fellow Daoist Meng and Fellow Daoist She cured three each. Fang Yi only cured two... Why did he win..."

"Situ Zhong, the outcome of the Dharma Assembly in Fengling Immortal City is determined by our own standards. How could we make random judgments?"

Master Xiang Shu glanced at the ignorant Situ Zhong and was about to teach him a lesson. How could his own junior brother, who was only in the early stage of foundation building, refute him casually?

"Brother Xiang Shu, please let me do it. Don't let my fellow Taoists think that I am bullying you by taking advantage of my power."

As the clear voice sounded, a silver whisk glowed with spiritual light, and with a flick of three thousand silver threads, the murderous aura overflowing from the terrace was suppressed.

Xia Zhengbai was as gentle as jade, with a breeze swirling around his boots. He took a step forward and landed in the center of the terrace.

"Fellow Daoist Situ, I convened this Dharma Assembly to find a method that would benefit many cultivators.

To remove the cold poison, fellow Daoist, don't you think that I, with my Nine Curves and One Meridian, can't diagnose a mere cold poison?"

Xia Zhengbai glanced at the many cultivators who were whispering to each other, and the scene became quiet.

"What do you think, fellow Daoists from Xuanyang Mountain, Bishui Pavilion, and Tiandaowu?"

Fang Yi walked slowly to Xia Zhengbai's side, looked at the high-spirited and respected young man, and knew that the outcome was set.

As the son of a Jindan Zhenren, Xia Zhengbai also laid the foundation of Taoism.

Not to mention the Dharma Assembly on Chenglu Terrace, it can also be found in Fengling Fairy City, Xuanyang Mountain, Bishui Pavilion, and the entire Dayun Fairyland.

There are several foundation-building cultivators whose status is comparable to his.

"Does he have some luck and wisdom? He could be given some control over the many responsibilities within the Examination Hall."

Master Qingfeng looked at Fang Yi and completed the last important task assigned by Jindan Zhenren before he left office.

The kindness and admiration in his eyes were undisguised. "Fellow Daoist Xia is fair in his conduct. Xuanyang Mountain has no objections."

"I, Bishui Pavilion, also agree."

"Tian Daowu, no objection agreed"

Xia Zhengbai made the final decision. Even though Aunt Xie from Bishui Pavilion and Master Geng from Tiandaowu were unwilling to accept it, they would not refute it.

Seeing that all the major sects present agreed one by one, Situ Zhong's face turned pale and dark, and he felt depressed.

He was still unwilling to accept it, and glared at Fang Yi fiercely. His lips moved several times, but he didn't have the courage to refute.

I saw a golden and round monk rushing towards Fang Yi.

"Brother Fang, we won! We won!"

Qian Chuanzi's face flushed with excitement and he held Fang Yi's hands tightly.

He had been hanging out in Fengling Fairy City for a long time, so he naturally knew how much Master Qingfeng valued him.

If Master Qingfeng were willing to help a little, I don’t know how much help it would bring.

Fang Yi pulled his hands out of Qian Chuanzi's fat hands without changing his expression.

Looking at Wei Qiong with a gloomy face and Wei Jiuxiao who was calm.

'He's a difficult person'

Then he gave Situ Chong a gentle smile.

"We are able to win this competition thanks to our guardian comrade Situ. Fang Yi expresses his gratitude here."

"you you!"

Thinking about how he had just taken the initiative to stop Meng Yuanhai and She Yuanding, he felt like a clown.

"puff!"

Situ Zhong spat out a mouthful of blood.

Fang Yi tilted his head slightly, with some surprise in his eyes.

He had seen many bloody scenes, but this was the first time he saw someone vomiting blood out of anger. This was a bit strange.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, this is the prize for the Dharma Assembly."

Xia Zhengbai looked at Situ Zhong with disdain. He had excellent medical skills, but his character was extremely bad.

I remembered the records about Fang Yi in Fengwenyuan of Fengling Fairy City. He was good at medicine and liked spiritual water.

He slapped his storage bag, and a green gourd magic weapon fell into his hand.

"This second-level Huifeng Spring is a gift to my fellow Daoist. After the Daoist Dharma Assembly, we will discuss it in detail."

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Xia. I would be honored to decline your offer."

Fang Yi took the emerald green gourd, and as soon as he held it in his hand, he felt the rustling sound of wind echoing in the gourd.

As the magic power around his body surged slightly, he could feel the collision of Feng Shui spiritual power, giving birth to vigorous vitality.

He suppressed his frown and looked happy.

With the help of this second-level spiritual spring, the bitter cold plum can grow again. It is one step closer to preparing a spiritual object for the Jindan stage.

Seeing this, Master Qingfeng seemed to be thinking about something, and secretly took out a jade talisman from his sleeve.

The jade talisman fell into Fang Yi's sleeve. He paused and continued talking with Xia Zhengbai.

The silver moon sets in the west and the bright sun rises in the east.

The Chenglu Terrace Dharma Assembly came to an end.

Many foundation-building masters transformed into purple, white, gold, and blue colored lights and left.

After all the monks had left, Xia Zhengbai spoke to Fang Yi.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, you can see through my intention of removing the cold poison from the Nine-Bend Meridian. Then I will speak frankly.

I would like to pre-order 100 portions of the elixir that my fellow Taoist just refined at the Dharma Assembly.

But within seven days, I will get the finished product of the elixir. I don't know if it is possible.
Besides this, I have another invitation. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Fang would be willing to become a disciple of my father, True Man Jiuqu."

Fang Yi was stunned.

Even though True Man Jiuqu was a third-rank formation master, digging up the foundation of Xuanyang Mountain in this way was still beyond imagination.

"Fellow Daoist, I can refine one hundred portions of Red Yuan Paste with some effort.

But I don't have the chance to become a disciple of Jiuqu Zhenren."

Xia Zhengbai didn't care about Fang Yi's refusal and took out a green jade token from his sleeve.

"Fellow Daoist Fang, don't worry about Xuanyang Mountain's reaction. My father will talk to Immortal Tianque and Immortal Guangsheng."

Although he didn't know what Xia Zhengbai saw in him, Fang Yi still refused.

Although his spiritual roots are ordinary in this life, he is also the grandson of a Jindan Zhenren, has a clean background, and has the opportunity to take charge of Xuanyang Mountain.

If so, he would move to Fengling Fairy City, even if it would be glorious for a while, but there is only one Jindan Zhenren, Jiuqu Zhenren, and it would be of limited help to him in the end.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Xia, for your consideration, but it's not necessary. My sect has treated me very kindly. I have no intention of switching to another sect."

Seeing this, Xia Zhengbai stopped trying to persuade him and just handed the token into Fang Yi's arms.

"This Nine-Bend Order is a gift to you, Daoist. If you wish to change your mind, you can come to Dazheng Mansion to find me at any time."

Fang Yi pondered for a moment and then took the token.

"Thank you so much for your consideration, fellow Daoist. I still need to make some elixirs, so I'll be leaving first."

Seeing the green light escaping into the distance, Master Xiang Shu spoke with some dissatisfaction.

"Junior Brother, why do you think so highly of this young Foundation Establishment cultivator from Xuanyang Mountain?"

Xia Zhengbai's eyes were penetrating. "Brother Xiang Shu, the demonic tide on the front lines is strange. I have a feeling the cold poison's ravages upon the cultivators this time are just the beginning."

In this way, a cultivator who is proficient in spiritual medicine and can save spiritual stones to the greatest extent is enough for my father to come forward once."

A quarter of an hour later.

As Fang Yi stepped into Baimu Garden, a small silver-white beast pounced towards his chest.

"Xiaoqi."

He picked up the silver-white little beast and stroked the soft fur of his own demon pet.

Qijie twisted his body in his arms, and a secret divine thought came out.

“Hmph!╭(╯^╰)╮.”

"A distinguished guest has arrived. Dacheng and Elder Gu are greeting him. Is it Brother Qingfeng?"

Fang Yi thought about Xia Zhengbai's inexplicable invitation today and had some vague guesses in his mind.

He quickened his pace and followed the bluestone path. In just a few dozen breaths, he arrived at the backyard.

There was a cool breeze in the courtyard and the shadows of bamboos were swaying.

A thin monk wearing a cloud crane robe stood beside the lotus pond. Behind him, Qian Chuanzi and Fan Dacheng stood on both sides with serious expressions and their hands hanging down.

The green spiritual rice in Qingfeng's hand fell, teasing the koi in the pond.

The warm sunshine shone, and the water waves rippled with golden ripples, and bubbles were happily blowing under the warm sunshine.

Seeing Fang Yi walk into the backyard, Master Qingfeng turned around and joked with a gentle look.

"Hey! Junior Brother Fang, have you reached an agreement with Fellow Daoist Xia?

Xia Zhengbai is well-known for his wealth, so he must have earned quite a bit of spirit stones this time."

Fang Yi heard the kindness in Qingfeng's words and smiled slightly.

"Fellow Daoist Xia asked for one hundred bottles of Red Yuan Cream, but considering Senior Brother's previous instructions, he didn't ask for a price.

Senior Brother Qingfeng, I am very poor now, so you must help me.

Otherwise, Junior Brother will be short of money and might even be kicked out of the cave."

"You, you did the right thing by being clever."

Master Qingfeng waved his hand and his tone suddenly changed.

He looked behind him at Qian Chuanzi with a smile on his face and Fan Dacheng with a serious expression.

"Junior Brother Qian, Junior Brother Fan, Junior Brother Fang and I have something important to discuss. Please step aside a bit."

"No need to bother, no need to bother, I will withdraw first."

Qian Chuanzi saw Fan Dacheng standing beside him, with an expressionless face and no intention of moving, and cursed him as a piece of wood.

He pulled his right hand hard again.

Fang Yi saw this and said, "Dacheng, I have something to discuss with Senior Brother Qingfeng, please leave first."

After hearing this, Fan Dacheng withdrew.

When there were only two monks left in the backyard, Master Qingfeng waved his sleeves and wisps of clouds and mist emerged.

The clouds and mist rolled and turned into a colorless ban, isolating the inside and the outside.

"Junior Brother Fang, in Junior Brother Fan's heart, he is quite prestigious."

"Dacheng and I have known each other since childhood. He is just too concerned about me now. I hope Brother Qingfeng will not be offended."

Fang Yi thought about the information he had collected in the past about Master Qingfeng.

"Brother, you've arrived just in time. I just got a tael of Yunhua Spiritual Tea. Please taste it for me."

"Oh?

It just so happens that I haven’t tasted the second-level Yunhua Spiritual Tea in a long time.”

Fang Yi took out a set of tea sets made of green jade from his storage bag and placed them on the stone table along with a pot of spiritual tea.

With a poke of his index finger, the emerald green spiritual fire ignited the spiritual charcoal under the jade pot. The flames kept jumping and licking the bottom of the pot.

Half an hour later.

The spiritual spring water in the jade pot is bubbling.

Fang Yi raised his hand and the jade pot tilted.

The boiling and crystal clear spiritual spring water gurgles out, brewing the tender green in the jade cup.

The aroma of tea rises.

Fang Yi handed a cup of spiritual tea to the thin monk sitting beside the stone table.

Master Qingfeng took a sip of the spiritual tea and savored it carefully with his eyes narrowed.

After a while, he opened his eyes and exhaled.

He then took out two soul-sealing jade boxes from his storage bag and pushed them in front of Fang Yi.

"This is the only hobby I have. Brother Fang, you are so thoughtful."

He pointed to the jade box on the table and spoke.

"Look at this, you have brought great honor to the masters of the sect.

This is a reward from the sect. Is it in line with your wishes, Junior Brother Fang?"

"As expected, Xuanyang Mountain is connected to Jiuqu Zhenren, but I don't know the specific relationship between the two."

Fang Yi did not take the soul-sealing healing device. Instead, he took out the jade token given by Xia Zhengbai from his storage bag.

“It’s what we should do to serve the sect.

Senior Brother Qingfeng, I have another thing to report to you. After Fellow Daoist Xia made an agreement with me for 100 portions of Chiyuan Cream.

He also said that Jiuqu Zhenren wanted to take me in as his disciple. I have already declined, but I cannot refuse this token."

"Oh!"

A fierce look flashed in Master Qingfeng's eyes, and he took the jade token and examined it carefully.

After a while.

"I know about this matter, Junior Brother Fang, I have another important matter to discuss this time.

Senior brother, my cultivation has reached the peak of the sixth level of foundation building, and I will be returning to the sect to retreat and break through.

But before I leave, I have one thing to tell you. Junior Brother Fang, are you interested in taking charge of the Examination Hall?"

Fang Yi frowned and fell into deep thought.

There was silence in the stone pavilion.

"."

"."

After a while.

Fang Yi smiled bitterly.

"Brother, please be frank. My cultivation is shallow, and I am afraid I am not qualified to be in charge of the Examination Pavilion."

Fang Yi knew clearly that with the strength displayed by Master Qingfeng, if he was willing to work hard, it would be enough to push himself to the position of Pavilion Master.

But when it comes to the position of the head of the Examination Pavilion, Luo Shengyi and Wei Jiuxiao will inevitably fall out.

When it comes to interests, the two may even work together to deal with themselves.

He is only at the second level of foundation building now, which is quite a distance from the middle stage of foundation building.

What's more, among his followers, only Fan Dacheng can see the light of day and get the Kaogong Pavilion, but he will definitely not be able to keep it.

Seeing that Fang Yi was not tempted by the position of the head of the Examination Pavilion, the admiration in Master Qingfeng's eyes became more and more obvious.

He then took out from his sleeve a magic token made entirely of red gold and engraved with a big sun.

“Junior Brother Fang, since that’s the case, I’ll speak frankly.

According to the order of the Jindan Zhenren in the sect, Junior Brother Fang tried his best to win over the Jiuqu Zhenren lineage.

All the spiritual objects and materials consumed will be paid for by the sect.

Junior Brother, this Xuan Yang Order is your proof, you must keep it safe."

'Sure enough, Xuanyang Mountain is connected to Jiuqu Zhenren, otherwise Xia Zhengbai would not dare to speak.

Judging from the Chenglu Terrace Dharma Assembly, Jiuqu Zhenren seems to be straddling three boats, and his relationship with Bishui Pavilion and Tiandaowu is unclear.

Fang Yi took over the Xuanyang Order, absorbed his magic power, and after a slight refinement, he realized that this order was a top-grade magical weapon with seven magical prohibitions.

He sounded doubtful.

"Brother Qingfeng, there are many fellow disciples in the Immortal City who have established their foundation, why is it me?"
