Mysterious mirror hanging high

Xiao Guanying's words were bewitching:

"If there really is a genius who can be used by me, why not give him a chance to become a god?"

"Or even change your thinking. I'm solely focused on seeking the Dao, and have no intention of having children. One day, I'll establish a heavenly court in this immortal world and ascend to the throne of the Heavenly Emperor..."

"After I ascend to heaven, won't the next Heavenly Emperor still be my successor?"

Xiao Guanying stared at Jing Yu with a warm smile and a gentle tone:

"Xuan Jing, take me as your master, or take me as your adoptive father... You are very likely to be the next Emperor of the Celestial Continent!"

After Xiao Guanying's passionate words, the faces of all the Yuanying Zhenjun present were a little shaken, and even their breathing became rapid. Among them, the more talented people who had the hope of becoming a god but had a weak background, the more they were tempted.

Even the Yuanying Zhenjun [Dai Kefu] of [Underworld Dao] has secretly sent a message to Xiao Guanying:

"Emperor Xiao Tian, ​​I can also talk, I can also become a demon!"

Unfortunately, Xiao Guanying didn't even look at him. He just looked at Jing Yu. Seeing that he was indifferent, he looked at Ye Xingyun who was eating heartily at the table.

Then, the corner of his eye swept towards the two Taoist disciples, Xuanweizi from Liangyi Temple and Jingxu Taoist from Juntian Temple.

Finally, he took a look at [Master Chess] Yang Dingfeng.

Seeing that these five people had no reaction, Xiao Guanying sighed softly:

"I am not forcing you fellow Taoists to become demons. On the contrary, I have been completely tired of the distinction between good and evil for a thousand years. Now, I no longer distinguish between good and evil. I want to follow the Middle Path."

"If any fellow Daoist changes his mind, you can come to Tiannan Territory to find me. I will not treat my followers badly."

Immediately, he flicked his sleeves and said calmly, "Three Poisons, let's go."

Tang Wei had a blank expression on his face. He bowed and said, "Yes, sir..."

As a crack appeared in the sky, Tang Wei disappeared into the void on Xiao Guanying's gilded chariot. These people from the Tiannan Demonic Sect came and went quickly, but their state of mind at the Nascent Soul Ceremony was completely different from the beginning.

Several Foundation Establishment cultivators were seen whispering to each other, "This Xiao Tianjun is indeed a descendant of the former Penglai Tianjun Xiao Buyi. He is elegant and graceful, and truly has the airs of a noble descendant! He doesn't seem like an ordinary demon."

"Why, Fellow Daoist Wang, are you tempted? But it's probably difficult for you to achieve divine enlightenment in this lifetime, right?"

"Well, how dare we even dream of becoming a god... Now it's Penglai's top geniuses who are eating the meat, can't we just have a few sips of soup?"

"You've also heard people say that Xiao Tianjun's foundation is just beginning, and it's time to recruit talented people. Deciding the fate of the world is the job of the geniuses, but do the daily work of welcoming guests and serving as slaves also require the geniuses? Mediocre people also have their place."

"If we go over there now, and once that damned Heavenly Court is established, we might even be able to get a position there."

"Hush... Be careful, don't you know that the sound transmission of low-level cultivators can be captured by a Yuanying Zhenjun who has opened his [ears]?"

"What?! There's such a thing?" The face of the foundation-building cultivator who encouraged his friends to join Xiao Guanying turned pale.

"How can a random cultivator like me, without any connections, know such secrets of cultivating immortality?"

Countless cultivators' whispers reached his ears, leaving Jing Yu speechless. "The morale of the righteous people in Penglai has somewhat dispersed... It seems quite a few cultivators have truly been persuaded by Xiao Guanying."

However, the four gods who had just appeared seemed indifferent to this. After Xiao Guanying's Nascent Soul incarnation left, the four spiritual shadows also dissipated.

Seeing that everyone was somewhat distracted, Jing Yu knew that it was time for him to step in and stabilize the situation, so he coughed lightly and said:

"This concludes my Nascent Soul Ceremony. Next up is a three-day sermon..."

Unlike the Yuanying Zhenjuns who were still preoccupied, all the cultivators at the Jindan realm and below were all invigorated and began to listen attentively to Jing Yu's sermon.

Jing Yu was not at all nervous. In order to comprehend the skills over the years, he had already learned from the strengths of many schools. In terms of the breadth of his knowledge of cultivation, he was not inferior to Yun Xuance and the like. It was natural for him to preach to the lower-level cultivators below the Jindan level.

So he sat upright on the golden lotus throne and spoke for three days and three nights, and the whole Tianji Peak was filled with Taoist sounds and strange visions... Countless low-level cultivators were fascinated by his talk, and the number of cultivators who broke through small bottlenecks increased rapidly. For a time, the overall cultivation level and spiritual pressure of the cultivators on Tianji Peak increased a lot.

After Jing Yu finished his sermon, the cultivators dispersed and most of the Yuanying True Lords said goodbye and left. The True Lords of Xuan Ce Sect then returned to the Baixiao Pavilion to discuss matters.

At this time, apart from the immortals from the Changsheng Palace, only Nangong Fuhua and Yuanji were present in the Baixiao Pavilion to listen.

Yun Xuance, who was the leader of the sect, said with a smile:

"This Xiao Tianjun is really calculating... For an ordinary cultivator's Nascent Soul Ceremony, it would be amazing to have dozens of True Lords come. It must be that the Xuanjing Infant has achieved the Nine Apertures and has reached an infinite path, so it attracted hundreds of Nascent Soul True Lords here."

"This Xiao Guanying took advantage of this grand occasion and won a lot of face for himself without bloodshed."

Yun Xuance laughed and said, "He ostensibly came here to recruit Xuan Jing, but as the saying goes, his real purpose is not the wine..."

Li Jiangmei nodded and said, "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xiao Guanying is targeting the vacillating neutral cultivators present!"

But Yun Xuance shook his head and said, "No."

Ye Xingyun asked curiously, "No? To be honest, even though my grandfather is a Great True Lord in the late Nascent Soul stage, the Ye family is not a lineage of the Divine Transformation Sect after all..."

"For an immortal clan like my Ye family that doesn't have a background in Divine Transformation, if Xiao Guanying can truly promise me a guaranteed Divine Transformation spot, it's not impossible for the Ye family of the East Sea Dragon Slaying Island to cooperate with the Tiannan Demon Dao troops to attack the Penglai Orthodox Path."

Yun Xuance said calmly, "I think Xiao Guanying's words are mostly meant for the True Lords of the several Divine Transformation Sects in Zhongzhou."

"Oh? What's the reason?" Yuanji asked curiously.

Yun Xuance picked up a black piece from the chessboard beside him and kept playing with it:

"Back then, Xiao Guanying once said that among the current masters of the Five Peaks of Songfeng, four were capable of achieving Divine Transformation. Among these Five Peaks, [True Lord Shu] Xiao Beiyue was busy with menial affairs, and his cultivation had stagnated for many years, so he was naturally excluded."

"So, we should be referring to the Central Mountain [Qi Liyan], the Eastern Mountain [Xiao Guanyue], the Western Mountain [Yang Dingfeng], and the Northern Mountain [Wu Kaizhi]."

"We don't know how many Divine Transformation cultivators can comprehend the laws with the Immortal Eye held by [Songfeng Pavilion]. But just thinking about it, if four people were preparing to achieve Divine Transformation at the same time, they would need spiritual resources from the sect to support them..."

"How will the Songfeng Pavilion's Grand Master [Qi Tianhua] prioritize the number of people who will become gods?"
