Chapter 525 “Feed”

　　“The Jade Emperor is naturally in the Clear Sky Golden Palace. The disciple of the Grand Pure One, Li Changgeng, is loyal, kind, and humble. He is good at scheming and is a pillar of the Heavenly Courts. Ever since Li Changgeng became the Water God of the Heavenly Courts, he had eliminated demons and protected the righteous path. He ruled the four seas, stabilized the Netherworld, and reincarnated steadily. He adhered to the will of the Heavenly Dao and protected all living beings. He had contributed many times to the Heavenly Courts.

　　I hereby confer the title of Water God to the Heavenly Cycle’s Great Luo Constellation, Taibai Jinxing. He will not be included in the ranks of the Constellations. He will be in charge of reform, set changes, and killings. He will control the four divisions of lightning, fire, battle, and plague. He will lead the water affairs of the Heavenly Courts. The Heavenly River Navy will listen to orders and the Chief Instructor Chang’e of the Moon Palace. May the Lingxiao Hall Prosper!” “Thank you for your reward, Jade Emperor!”

　　Li Changshou replied loudly after General Dongmu announced the decree.

　　The decree in the former’s hand transformed into rays of golden light. Li Changshou bowed with a Dao salute in the crowd of immortals, and rays of golden light entered his body.

　　Suddenly, he heard the sound of water roaring. It was as if the four seas had raised thousands of kilometers of waves. Blue light appeared behind Li Changshou. Rich Heavenly Dao power surged over and condensed into a triangular flag.

　　The flag surged with rivers and rivers, containing the power of the four seas. Finally, it condensed into a black color that fluttered behind Li Changshou.

　　Another huge star rose from behind the flag. The flag quickly changed shape and added many details. It slowly transformed into a black flag that was mixed with blue.

　　Li Changshou was enlightened. He raised his right hand and the treasure flag flew over from behind and landed in his hand. It was exactly the same as the real thing Obtain the fortune of the world, condense the Divine Power of the Heavenly Courts, and contain the power of the Heavenly Dao. Its name was the True Martial Soap Flag!

　　Li Changshou’s Dao heart trembled slightly, but his expression was calm. He continued to shake the treasure flag in his hand as he had expected, revealing the power of the Heavenly Courts’ Deity Position in front of the immortals.

　　The world suddenly darkened. A huge star rose in the east sky. Although the light was not comparable to the sun and moon, it was so dazzling that it triggered the dawn before the darkness.

　　The power of the Heavenly Dao circulated. That scene appeared in Li Changshou and all the Qi Refinement cultivators’ hearts.

　　Torrential waves appeared in the calm deep sea. The azure dragon jumped out of the sea, and the Sea Clan danced happily. Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the sky!

　　Taibai Returns, Heavenly Dao Reform!

　　At the Jade Pool, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother looked at the Sixth Heaven. The Jade Emperor raised his head and laughed. He kept rubbing his palms and patting them. The gods below stood up to congratulate him. In the Tushita Palace, the Grand Supreme Elder, who was sitting in front of the Pill Furnace and thinking about why the ox had not returned, smiled warmly. The old Daoist priest in the Grand Pure One Temple smiled and squinted. The Daoists in the small courtyard of Kunlun Mountain frowned. The young Daoist priest, who was lying on his back on the sea of clouds in the Green Touring Palace, pursed his lips. Then, he began to feel that the younger generation would surpass him. A moment later, the world returned to peace. In the Great White Palace, Li Changshou held the True Martial Soap Flag, which was a Divine Power Treasure. He secretly wondered if the so-called True Martial had anything to do with Emperor True Martial.

　　The various relationships in the Heavenly Courts were very chaotic. Li Changshou could not see through the direction of the evolution of the Divine Power. However, the titles of “Great Emperor” and “Marshal” were actually a little exaggerated. For example, among the twelve Golden Immortals of Chan School, there were also disciples who called them Heavenly Venerates of Dao cultivation, Heavenly Venerates of Wenshu Guangfa, and so on. It sounded quite scary, but in reality… It was just a Dao name. In the Heavenly Courts, the position of the Heavenly Dao was important. Outside the Heavenly Courts, one would see the difference between the Dao, Dharma, and mystical abilities.

　　Just as Li Changshou put away the treasure flag, he heard a wave of congratulations.

　　Perfected Du’e was the first to shout loudly, “Congratulations on Changgeng’s promotion to Taibai Jinxing. He is a second-stage righteous god of the Heavenly Courts!” “Congratulations, Taibai Jinxing!” “Congratulations, Taibai Jinxing!” “Changgeng is our role model, the pillar of the Heavenly Courts, and a legendary figure of the Dao Sect!”

　　“Hahahaha! Changgeng is so valued in the Heavenly Courts. If the immortals of Jie School encounter any Heavenly Soldiers or Heavenly Generals in the future, we will help them if we have to. Don’t make things difficult for them!” Chi Jingzi shouted, “He Changgeng of Chan School is the Venus Sovereign. Please give me some gifts!” “Ah.” Perfected Taiyi smiled and said, “Don’t be in a hurry to send him off. There’s still a huge battle later.”

　　The immortals smiled without saying anything.

　　After the surrounding congratulatory voices passed, General Dongmu cupped his hands and bowed to everyone.

　　“His Majesty, the Jade Emperor, has prepared a banquet and dance for you. If the Heavenly Courts do not entertain you well, please forgive them. “In addition, Your Majesty, please invite the disciples of the Saints of the Dao Sect to the Jade Pool for a banquet.”

　　General Dongmu was responsible for offending others!

　　Li Changshou smiled and said, “General Dongmu, please lead my Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters of Chan School and Jie School to the Jade Pool first. I’ll toast to you three times here before going to the Jade Emperor to thank His Majesty.”

　　General Dongmu agreed to the requests one after another. The experts from the immortal sects who originally had some opinions about such arrangements did not flare up. Li Changshou… would be free to do that.

　　At that moment, more than ten immortals from Chan School came out. Only twenty-odd of the hundreds of immortals from Jie School walked out. General Dongmu led the way and rushed to the Jade Pool. Due to the fact that there were fewer disciples of the Saint of Ren School, Perfected Dule and a few other in-name disciples were invited to the Jade Pool. They could be considered to be supporting Ren School.

　　Ji Wuyou lowered his head and followed.

　　He did not have an invitation. He followed his master into the Heavenly Courts and became a doorman in front of the Great White Hall for half a day. In the end, he followed behind his master and obtained a spot for the Jade Pool Immortal Banquet… This trip was not in vain. Then, a large group of Heavenly Soldiers carried a short table over. They set up a short table and set up the venue in one go.

　　The fairies brought over immortal fruit wine and delicacies. The musicians played a clear and fast tune, and more than ten Chang’e danced inside. Chang’e’s dance was also very particular. It did not mean that the more people there were, the better.

　　On the contrary, in such an immortal banquet, the fewer dancers there were, the more precious this dance was.

　　Among the Chang’e of the Moon Palace, there were very few who could obtain the qualifications to dance alone. They had to be the top few dancers. For example, Heng’e. Li Changshou sat in the middle of the main seat in the Great White Palace. He drank three cups of wine and chatted happily, showing a strong “reluctance”. Everyone understood. They took the initiative to persuade Li Changshou to go to the Jade Pool to thank the Jade Emperor for his kindness and accompany the mighty figures of the Dao Sect. Li Changshou rejected them and stood up to apologize with a Dao salute. He rode a cloud and floated away.

　　Hence…

　　Daoist Randeng, who was sitting at a higher position, looked rather awkward.

　　What was outstanding about Randeng was that his skin could be infinitely thicker.

　　At that moment, he did not leave, did not speak, did not eat, and did not drink. He just sat there with a dull expression, making the atmosphere abnormally oppressive.

　　Li Changshou’s immortal senses captured that scene and he naturally smiled faintly.

　　When he flew to the Jade Pool on a cloud, Ao Yi, the Golden-Winged Roc, and Bian Zhuang waited in front and followed behind Li Changshou.

　　In just a moment, the Jade Pool was already in sight.

　　Putting aside the fact that the fairies had come out in groups to welcome him, they were all addressing him as “Lord Jinxing”. Not to mention the decorations at the Jade Pool, it was even more lively than the secret birth of Long Ji.

　　Just as Li Changshou was flying on a cloud, he happened to encounter the old Daoist priest who was attracted by the Heavenly General. Li Changshou took a closer look and saw that the old Daoist priest’s appearance was clear and upright. He had a full figure and a foot-long white beard that was extremely elegant. His Dao runes were perfect and deep. The Daoist robe on his body was also an ancient style. The ends of his wide sleeves almost reached his knees, and it seemed to contain a world. Li Changshou took a turn and hurriedly went forward on a cloud. He bowed to the old Daoist priest and smiled.

　　“Greetings, Senior Zhen Yuanzi!” “Oh?” The old Daoist priest sensed carefully and recognized Li Changshou’s Dao runes. He could not help but support his beard and smile. He turned towards Li Changshou and bowed to him. The old Daoist priest said warmly, “You’re too polite, Lord Taibai Jinxing. Previously, you sent a disciple of Ren School to pay a visit to my temple. When you advanced, I had nothing to do, so I came to the Heavenly Courts to take a look and congratulate you.”

　　The matter that the Great Immortal Zhenyuan had mentioned naturally referred to when Li Changshou had arranged for Ling’e to go to the Zhenyuan Five Village to visit. “Thank you, Senior. Thank you, Senior.” Li Changshou cupped his hands and bowed slightly. He turned around and invited, “Senior, please take a seat… Ao Yi, Bian Zhuang?” “Here!”

　　“Quickly report to the Jade Emperor that the ancestor of the Earth Immortals, Senior Zhen Yuanzi, has arrived at the Jade Pool.”

　　“Yes!” Ao Yi and Bian Zhuang agreed and rushed forward.

　　The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother naturally knew that the Great Immortal Zhenyuan had come. Li Changshou’s actions were to ask the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother to take the ancient mighty figure seriously. After all, in the ancient times, the Five Village Temple had once been the refuge of the human race. It had also protected the last foundation of the human race. When the Great Immortal Zhenyuan heard Li Changshou’s words, his smile became wider. He invited Li Changshou to fly to the Jade Pool together. The two of them did not chat. After all, they were not familiar with each other due to their seniority. When they arrived at the Jade Pool Immortal Banquet, Li Changshou took the initiative to stop and invited Great Immortal Zhenyuan to enter first. He did not decline. The Jade Emperor and the various immortals stood up to welcome him. The Great Immortal Zhenyuan also gave the Heavenly Courts some face. He bowed to the Jade Emperor and addressed him as’ Your Majesty’. He was arranged to sit slightly in front of the disciples of the three sects and be on par with General Dongmu.

　　“Seniority”.

　　Although the Great Immortal Zhenyuan had stolen the limelight, Li Changshou felt rather comfortable. He looked inside the Jade Pool’s entrance and suddenly felt complicated… The Jade Emperor and Queen Mother sat high on the right side of the Heavenly Courts’ immortals.

　　The seats were filled with people who were impermanent and mediocre. They called Taibai into the Heaven Pavilion.

　　He had once drunk the moon in the Nine Heavens. Now, the jade plate was hidden in his sleeve.

　　In a daze, there are no calamities in this world. The immortal path is always peaceful.

　　This scene…

　　Chi Jingzi held a wine bottle and toasted the Goddess of Golden Spirit at the side. Qiong Xiao and Bi Xiao accompanied the Goddess of Turtle Spirit and teased Perfected Taiyi’s sleeping posture in Asura Ancient City. General Dongmu toasted Perfected Dule from afar. Fairy Yun Xiao was drinking with the Queen Mother on the platform.

　　If…

　　It would be good if there were no so-called Great Tribulations in this world.

　　Li Changshou’s Dao heart trembled slightly. He knew that he was too naive.

　　“Why are you standing here?” A familiar laugh suddenly sounded from behind. Li Changshou turned around and saw a slowly spinning Taiji Painting appear in the universe. The Great Daoist Master walked out from it.

　　“Senior Brother!”

　　Li Changshou could not help but smile and take two steps forward.

　　The Golden-Winged Roc beside him immediately bowed and shouted, “Greetings, Great Daoist Master!”

　　Great Daoist Master Xuan Du chuckled. Looking at Li Changshou’s appearance, he said, “I don’t dare to agree to your old appearance.”

　　Li Changshou was in a dilemma. He smiled and said, “I have to use this old appearance today.” “Hahahaha!”

　　Great Daoist Master Xuan Du raised his hand and punched Li Changshou’s shoulder with a smile. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. “You can’t even bear to reveal your main body?”

　　“This…”

　　Li Changshou touched his sleeve and his body suddenly shrank. A stream of light flew out of his sleeve and transformed into the appearance of the “Water God”.

　　“My main body has always been here.” Li Changshou smiled and said, “It’s just that my cultivation level is insufficient. I was worried that I would be ambushed by some experts, so I did not appear directly.”

　　The Great Daoist Master and the immortals in the immortal banquet… General Dongmu called out, “Great Daoist Master Xuan Du, quickly invite him in!” Li Changshou hurriedly agreed and invited the Great Daoist Master to enter. Immediately, apart from the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother, the immortals present stood up and congratulated him like a wave. Li Changshou had to bow twice with every step he took. He was so busy that he was dizzy.

　　Finally, after Li Changshou bowed to the Jade Emperor and Queen Mother, he sat in the empty seat in front of General Dongmu with the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du.

　　Great Daoist Master Xuan Du took a closer look and realized that Fairy Yun Xiao was sitting in the guest seat opposite him. Hence, he stood up and cupped his hands at the Jade Emperor. He smiled and said, “Aunt-Master, can I take the initiative to change seats?”

　　The Jade Emperor immediately understood what the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du meant. He laughed and said, “Why not?” Hence, Great Daoist Master Xuan Du walked forward and walked to Fairy Yun Xiao. He said calmly, “Junior Sister Yun Xiao, shall we change seats?” Yun Xiao looked to the side and blushed. After hesitating for a while, she stood up and said, “Thank you, Senior Brother.” Then, she bowed and walked to Li Changshou’s side with her head lowered. She slowly sat down. Her sitting posture was dignified, and her expression was calm. She met Li Changshou’s gaze slightly and immediately looked straight ahead. Li Changshou calmly raised his wine glass and gently touched the jade bottle in front of Fairy Yun Xiao. “I’ve wronged you today. I have no ill intentions.” Yun Xiao shook her head gently and sighed softly. “It’s fine.”

　　It was true.

　　She was still shy and sat upright.

　　Perfected Taiyi teased, “In my opinion, why don’t we have double happiness today?”

　　“Pui!”

　　Qiong Xiao was afraid that her sister would be embarrassed, so she immediately retaliated. “It’s a double blessing before it’s even begun. You have to ask if Fourth Sister and I agree!”

　　Bi Xiao smiled and said, “No, no! Brother-in-law has yet to come to the island to propose marriage. I don’t have any benefits!”

　　Yun Xiao frowned and looked over. Bi Xiao instantly knelt, lowered her head, and pursed her lips. Her smug expression instantly turned pitiful, causing the experts of the two sects and the immortals of the Heavenly Courts to laugh. At that moment, a Heavenly General quickly reported and shouted, “Your Majesty! There are six disciples of the Western Sect who are seeking an audience with you in the Western Heavenly Gate. They said that they are here to send a congratulatory message to the Reincarnation Pagoda Master to congratulate Lord Taibai Jinxing for his promotion!” When the Jade Emperor heard that, he immediately thought of the spiritual will that had secretly gone to look for his incarnation. He smiled and asked, “Changgeng, do you want them to enter?”

　　Li Changshou stood up and cupped his hands. He pondered for a while and hesitated.

　　At that moment, the immortals and gods of the Heavenly Courts did not dare to express their opinions. However, the disciples of the Saints of the two sects did not have much scruples. The Goddess of Golden Spirit shouted, “Let them in. Let’s see who dares to spout nonsense today!” “That’s right.” Perfected Taiyi echoed from the side. “I was just worried about my mystical abilities being useless. It’s not bad to have a few people who can be scolded and have fun.”

　　Li Changshou said, “It’s up to His Majesty to decide whether to let the people of the Western Sect enter. However, I thought that the Western Sect did not come here to cause trouble. If the losses we have suffered over the years cannot make them remember, that would be a good thing for our Heavenly Courts.” The Jade Emperor chuckled and said, “In Changgeng’s opinion, let them enter. General Dongmu, arrange for them to sit.” The Heavenly General hurriedly transformed into a stream of light and flew to the Western Heavenly Gate. General Dongmu stood up and looked around. He kept looking at Li Changshou for help. Finally, he arranged the location of the people from the Western Sect to be the most convenient place for transportation.

　　At the end of the immortal banquet, General Dongmu was about to return to his seat when Perfected Taiyi prepared the “mystical ability initiation”. The Goddess of Golden Spirit also prepared some killing intent. Flowing light kept flashing outside as batches of Heavenly Generals rushed over to report.

　　“Your Majesty! The Four Sea Dragon Kings entered the Heavenly Courts in the East Heaven Gate and came to congratulate Lord Taibai Star Lord!” “Your Majesty! The ten Yama Lords of the Netherworld have already entered the Heavenly Courts through the South-Heaven Gate. They are here to congratulate Lord Taibai Jinxing!” “Your Majesty, the Trichiliocosm Immortal Alliance has sent a congratulatory message. The two Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals are waiting at the East Heaven Gate to send a message.”

　　“Your Majesty, the Saint, Emperor Da Yu of Fire Cloud Cave is waiting for you at the Central Heavenly Gate. He is here on behalf of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors to congratulate the Great White Star Lord!”

　　The Jade Emperor clapped and laughed. He said loudly, “Don’t stop me. Invite the Jade Pool to the banquet!”

　　However, just as the Jade Emperor finished speaking, he heard another sound…

　　Moo ~

　　The immortals were shocked. They hurriedly stood up. Even the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother left the throne and arrived below the platform.

　　Amidst the clouds, an old Daoist priest rode a green ox over. The old Daoist priest had deliberately changed into a purple robe today. There was a faint smile on his lips. The Dao runes around him were extremely mysterious and clear. He explained everything naturally and said everything Grand Supreme Elder! Li Changshou hurriedly walked out of the short table and quickly walked forward. He lowered his head and bowed. “Greetings, Grand Supreme Elder!” “Okay.”

　　The Grand Supreme Elder replied calmly and rode the green ox to the Jade Pool Banquet.

　　Li Changshou took a step forward and used the Cosmic Shrinking Technique. He arrived beside the green ox and leaned over to support it. He held the Grand Supreme Elder’s left arm with both hands and welcomed him in.

　　Then, he heard a familiar voice. “Just tie the ox outside.”

　　“Yes,” Li Changshou replied respectfully. He watched as the Grand Supreme Elder slowly walked in. He looked at the disciples of the two sects in front of him and greeted them. Then, he led the green ox to the familiar stone.

　　Huh?

　　Why does this cow feel different today? Li Changshou took out an immortal rope, passed through the ox’s nose ring, and tied it to the green stone. The ox lowered its head and sighed. It used a childish voice to say, “Senior Brother, go and call the ox back when you’re free.”

　　Uh, it was Little Silver.
