Chapter 1035
Chapter 1035
The great sects of the Immortal Dao were the originators of martial arts in the world. The five sects had been arranged ten thousand years ago, but the vicissitudes of the world had changed. The branches of the other five sects had their own lives and deaths, so they were no longer close to the five sects.
The five sects had changed a lot. The Incense Cult had not entered the Jianghu for a long time; the Shendao Sect had been destroyed long ago and was replaced by the Sect Between the Clouds and the Water; the Misty School had been destroyed and was replaced by the Righteous Alliance.
Now that the five sects had taken their seats in Huaiyu Palace, there was a new order in the Jianghu!
Nun Jing Yi was the last to ascend the high platform. She walked to the jade seat in the center and sat down. Just as she sat down, there was a flash of multicolored light on the high platform and the faint sound of bamboo instruments. Although it was faint, it had already spread throughout the Huaiyu Palace.
In the Huaiyu Palace, there were more than two hundred sects and thousands of people. Envy flashed in their eyes as they wondered when their own sects would be able to ascend the high platform of the Immortal Dao.
"Alright, everyone, please have some tea and rest for a moment. The Wulin Convention will continue with its brilliance!"
Nun Jing Yi cupped her hands slightly, her voice spreading throughout the Huaiyu Palace.
Immediately, the inner sect disciples of Lingering Fragrance Peak held trays in their hands. On the trays were tea and fruits made by Lingering Fragrance Cult. They were delivered to the tables of the various sects.
Everyone in the Jianghu had an unruly side. When they saw beautiful women, even the inner sect disciples of the Incense Cult couldn't help but look lustful. However, when they saw the women's martial arts cultivation, they couldn't help but be flabbergasted. Perhaps on the surface, one couldn't see a person's true martial arts with the naked eye, but … which of these sect leaders and elders hadn't been immersed in martial arts for decades?
How could they not be able to see the characteristics of powerful martial arts from a few details?
How could they still look at these young women with martial arts that weren't inferior to their own?
Well, maybe they had some special hobbies, but let's not talk about them.
Thus, almost all of the elders couldn't help but look like profound elders because of their status.
The young disciples were different. When they saw such beautiful women, how could they maintain their composure?
They all had smiles plastered on their faces as they stood up one by one and greeted them politely.
Their teachers wanted to stop them, but they changed their minds and didn't say anything.
These young disciples of the various sects were all young talents that had been selected by their respective sects. They had come here not only to broaden their horizons, but also to show off their skills in front of the heroes of the world. Their mission was to gain face for their respective sects. When the masters of the various sects saw that the inner disciples of the School of Incense were so outstanding, they must have made some calculations in their hearts. If their disciples were to gain the favor of a female disciple and establish a relationship with the School of Incense, then … not to mention the status of their sects in Jianghu, perhaps … they would even have the opportunity to sit on those jade chairs on the high platform!
In the end, even some of the bashful young disciples were secretly kicked by their own teachers under the table, causing their faces to turn red!
But … this was just wishful thinking. The female disciples of the Incense Cult might not be as outstanding as the disciples of Mo Ning Gong, but they could not possibly set their sights on the martial world. Cough cough, of course, unless they were like Zhang Xiaohua … who was so infatuated that she could fight her way up to Lingering Fragrance Peak … only then would they consider it!
The inside and outside of Huaiyu Palace was a lively scene, and the high platform was another scene.
Abbess Jing Yi waved her hand and cast a spell. Immediately, a layer of milky white restrictive spells appeared around the platform, surrounding it tightly. Bai Yanqiu and Zhang San's expressions changed slightly. They didn't understand what was going on, but when they saw that the Grand Elder and Garuda didn't say anything, they looked at each other and didn't say anything.
"Alright, it's rare for the School of Incense to entertain guests. I hope that everyone will not mind."
As she spoke, a few female disciples passed through the milky white restriction. Each of them held a tray in their hands. The one in front had five small wine cups on it. Nun Jing Yi smiled and said, "This is the Chilled Ice Wine brewed from the Chilled Ice Grass of the School of Incense. We used the recipe of the School of Immortals, and it has great benefits for refining one's vital energy!
Please enjoy … "
As she spoke, Nun Jing Yi downed the wine cup in her hand. Then, she closed her eyes and adjusted her breathing, as if she was refining the vital energy in the wine.
"Haha," Garuda saw this and laughed. "I didn't expect the School of Incense to be so generous. You even took out such a precious item to entertain your guests. If I didn't come today, I would have suffered a great loss!"
As she spoke, she tilted her head back and downed the wine.
"Amitabha," the elder chanted. "Wine is not wine, meat is not meat. Wine and meat pass through the intestines, but Buddha remains in the heart."
She also downed the wine in one gulp.
Bai Yanqiu looked at the dark green wine in the small wine cup in his hand and couldn't help but hesitate. The wine cup was carved from white jade and should have been warm, but when he held it in his hand, it felt a little cold. However, this coldness was different from usual. It was mixed with the warmth, and there were traces of icy ripples. As he raised the wine cup, a faint fragrance drifted into his nose. The wine swirled left and right with the movement of his hand. Every time it swirled, a faint fragrance would spread out. Bai Yanqiu released his Divine Sense, and his expression changed slightly. He saw that the small wine cup was overflowing with vital energy. It was many times more vital energy than the Immortal Tea Between the Clouds and the Water, and this vital energy was faintly dispersed along with the fragrance.
Bai Yanqiu didn't dare to be negligent. He tilted his head back and poured the wine into his mouth. Immediately, a refreshing feeling spread out from his mouth, and then a small stream rose from his stomach. This was the essence of the vital energy of heaven and earth. Bai Yanqiu's face turned slightly red, and he immediately used the Shendao Sect's heart technique to refine this vital energy of heaven and earth into his meridians!
At this time, Zhang San was different. He saw that the other four people treasured this strange looking wine, and also closed their eyes to adjust their breathing. How could he not know that this was an item of the Immortal Path?
However, when he smelled the wine cup in his hand, it didn't have the smell of ordinary wine at all. There was only a refreshing fragrance that made him feel refreshed, and it had nothing to do with the wine. He hesitated for a moment, but just as he was about to use it, Nun Jing Yi opened her eyes and said with a smile, "Alliance Head Zhang, this wine was brewed using the Immortal Path's method. If you don't know the Immortal Path's heart technique, you won't be able to refine the essence of the wine. This wine … is just an ordinary drink. It won't increase one's inner strength by much, and can be said to be a waste. I think, if there are people in the Righteous Alliance who know the Immortal Path's cultivation method, why don't Alliance Head Zhang bring it back?
Zhang San's eyes narrowed, and his face turned slightly green. However, he quickly recovered and nodded, "Nun Jing Yi is right."
"Good, bring me a jade bottle!"
"Yes," a voice answered from outside the restriction. A female disciple dressed in light red clothes came in from outside, holding a small jade bottle in her hand.
"Eh???"
The female disciple had just entered when she saw Garuda, who was sitting on the jade chair and had just opened his eyes. She couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
The female disciple was also stunned. She looked at Garuda in confusion.
With a whoosh, Garuda suddenly jumped up from the jade chair. He seemed to have forgotten to use his qinggong. He walked in a few steps to the female disciple and grabbed her wrist.
"Ah?"
The female disciple was stunned. She tried to use her qinggong to dodge, but how could she be a match for Garuda? Before she could move, she was caught. With a cry of surprise, the jade bottle fell to the ground.
Nun Jing Yi was stunned. With a wave of her hand, the jade bottle flew into her hand. She said unhappily, "Garuda, what is the meaning of this?"
However, Garuda completely ignored her. He held the female disciple's wrist with one hand and pressed her acupoints with the other. He began to open his eyes wide and carefully examine her from head to toe!
Nun Jing Yi coldly snorted and handed the jade bottle to Zhang San, saying, "Alliance Leader Zhang, put this Icy Soul Wine into the jade bottle. If it is left in the wine cup for too long, the essence inside will disappear!"
Zhang San took the wine cup and poured it into the jade bottle as instructed. He put it away and said no more. He coldly looked at Garuda, who was not far away.
Garuda seemed to have obtained some kind of treasure. He looked at the female disciple from head to toe. He was just short of … taking off her clothes to examine her.
The female disciple's face was red with embarrassment, but her eyes were filled with fear. Her body trembled uncontrollably. Although she couldn't move, she still looked at Nun Jing Yi for help.
"Enough, Garuda. Let go of your hand!" Nun Jing Yi said angrily.
"Hehe, Nun Jing Yi, wait a moment …" As he spoke, Garuda stretched out his right hand and pointed between the female disciple's eyebrows.
"Hmph." Nun Jing Yi coldly snorted. Her hand moved slightly, and a gust of wind from her finger attacked Garuda's main acupoint on his back.
"Hehe." Garuda chuckled and dodged the attack.
"Sigh." Nun Jing Yi rose into the air like a wisp of smoke. She stretched out her hand and grabbed the back of Garuda's neck. Garuda didn't turn around. His body flashed, and an afterimage flashed. In the blink of an eye, he floated to another part of the platform, still holding the female disciple in his hand. When Nun Jing Yi's figure turned in the air and wanted to continue the chase, Garuda's finger had already landed between the female disciple's eyebrows.
"Hahaha." Garuda let out a surprised laugh. He landed on the ground, let go of the female disciple's hand, and jumped onto the jade chair!
However, the female disciple's acupoint hadn't been unsealed. She could only stand there in a daze!
"Garuda, what is the meaning of this?"
Nun Jing Yi walked to the female disciple's side and looked her up and down. She also used her divine sense to check her. She didn't find anything unusual.
"Nothing, nothing. Nun Jing Yi, please don't blame me!"
Garuda seemed to be in an extremely good mood. His lean face was filled with a smile as he said, "This one has a presumptuous request. I need Nun Jing Yi's approval!"
Nun Jing Yi looked at the frightened female disciple and shook her head. "If you don't explain the matter clearly, this sect won't agree to anything!"
"Hehe, it's actually nothing much!"
Garuda looked at the female disciple behind Nun Jing Yi and smiled. "This girl has a body of true fire. Her meridians contain fire-type true essence. This heavenly king urgently needs to break through a bottleneck. This one has no choice but to be thick-skinned and ask for this girl from Nun Jing Yi to be a cauldron for dual cultivation!"
