Chapter 415: Twin Stars and the Moon, Taihu Divine Lord
The Taoist boy Chong Jing didn't know why the Moon Collector was like that, so he comforted him, "Tell me what's wrong, and I'll help you find a solution. The Immortal Jin Ting is still waiting for you to collect the moonlight. It would be bad if you delayed the mission and made the Immortal angry."
The Moon Collector simply covered his face to calm himself. It was like the Thunder Collector, who had emerged, boasting of being a true dragon, yet his magical powers were inferior to that of this fox demon. It was an indescribable embarrassment. The Moon Collector, who boasted of being able to combine fire and wood, was far inferior to the elixir of the Golden Court Immortal. He boasted of being an expert in collecting moonlight, a pearl born from the old clam and the moon, but seeing the elixir of the Golden Court Immortal as if it were the bright moon's own child, he was naturally as shocked as the Thunder Collector.
The Moon Collector reluctantly said, "The Great Immortal Jin Ting summoned so much moonlight, but still needed my help. It shows that I am indispensable. Otherwise, he could have done it himself."
Chong Jing said: "Of course, the Great Immortal Jin Ting practices thunder magic, and he needs a Thunder Master to collect thunder. Now he needs you to collect the moon, so it must be of great use."
The Moon Collector mustered his courage and looked at the Dan Qi again, but he still felt an indescribable discomfort. However, he was already able to emit light to attract the Taiyin Qi and condense the essence of the bright moon.
The Moon-Cai official transformed into a second bright pearl, spinning in the air. The red halo was mysterious and extraordinary, and even more extraordinarily gorgeous.
It’s a pity that with such a beautiful pearl in front of us, there is not even a dragon chasing it.
Cai Yueguan was discouraged and embarrassed, but he still had to work, and his heart was filled with misery.
Seeing her so miserable, Cai Leiguan felt secretly happy.
The elixir of the great immortal Jin Ting attracted infinite moonlight. The bright moon in the sky was like a kind old mother, and no matter how much she was loved, it was not enough.
The Moon Collector quickly found a way to be lazy. Although the elixir of the Great Immortal Jin Ting was wandering in the moonlight, and no one knew how much the bright moon loved it, the old mother's love was only more, not less. She collected the leaked parts on the side, thus saving a lot of effort.
Gradually, the red bead got closer and closer to the elixir of the Great Immortal Jin Ting, and kept chasing the elixir of the Great Immortal Jin Ting.
This infuriated the Thunder Collector, who had toiled so hard to gather the essence of heavenly thunder and to summon clouds and rain, leaving him exhausted. Now, the Moon Collector was slacking off in front of the Great Immortal Jin Ting, stealing the moonlight he had summoned, and the Great Immortal Jin Ting hadn't even driven him away.
The Thunder Collector was unwilling to give up, so he spat out his own dragon ball, a white bead that was brighter than frost and snow, and threw it onto the golden palace where mist was rising and lights were floating up and down. He imitated the Moon Collector's behavior and swallowed and exhaled the moonlight brought by the Golden Court Immortal.
The three bright pearls intertwined with each other, swirling and undulating in the moonlight, illuminating the Shenjing Palace. It was a rare wonder in the world.
However, the Thunder Collector and Moon Collector who were in the middle of it felt the ability of the Great Immortal Jin Ting. It was not only that the moonlight was like a flood, but also the nature of the moon and the principles of the bright moon were vast and boundless.
Under such moonlight, there is no need to worry about gains or losses, only gratitude and joy linger in the heart.
In the following days, during the day the Thunder Official would control the clouds and rain to collect the essence of the heavenly thunder, and at night the Moon Official would collect the essence of the bright moon.
The divine light in the Shenjing Palace shone for several days at night, illuminating the void and making it bright and clear. Not only did the Thunder Collector and the Moon Collector reap great rewards, but the Taoists in the Shenjing Palace also gained some enlightenment.
On this day, the Great Immortal Jin Ting was practicing as usual, but several figures emerged from the waves not far from West Dongting Mountain.
Leading the group was a young man dressed in gold and jade, with a white face as if covered with rouge and powder. Behind him followed a dark and strong general with a broad mouth, and several servants.
The pale-faced young man looked towards the Divine Scenery Palace and asked, "Have you found out? Is this the fox demon's territory?"
The servants behind the young man were already shaking with trembling legs. One of them whispered shrilly, "That's right, Your Highness. I heard that Immortal Jin Ting occupied West Dongting Mountain upon his arrival in Taihu Lake, and subdued the cultivators of Shenjing Palace. That bright light on the mountain is where Immortal Jin Ting cultivates."
Another servant said, "Your Highness, the Immortal Jin Ting is extremely powerful. If you come here rashly to seek revenge, what will you do if something goes wrong?"
Du Heng raised his foot and kicked the boy in the stomach, knocking him backwards into the water. He angrily said, "Why are you nagging? If father blames you, I will take the responsibility. What are you afraid of?"
Several servants looked sad and didn't dare to say anything.
Du Heng looked at the black servant behind him and said, "General Xunyou, you have fought with that fox demon before. How was it? Are you sure you can take him down?"
The black catfish made a bitter face and sighed, "Your Highness, that fox demon has immense magical powers and is so light, I simply cannot bring him down. Your Highness, the Lord has already negotiated peace with the Immortal Jin Ting, so why are you still provoking him?"
Du Heng snorted coldly and said, "Father made peace with him, that's father, I didn't make peace with him. He stole my priceless pearl, and until he returns it, I will never let him go!"
"Look what this is."
Du Heng stretched out his hand, and a jade statue in his hand blossomed with layers of brilliance, emitting brilliant light.
The patrolling general was horrified and said, "Your Highness! Why did you bring the Taihu Divine Lord with you? This treasure is the divine artifact that controls the lake. It must not be lost."
Du Heng sneered and said, "Don't worry about how I brought it here. I just want to ask you, with the cooperation of Taihu Divine Lord, can you capture that fox demon?"
The patrolling general refused to answer.
Du Heng said sternly, "How dare you disobey me?"
The patrolling general looked at Du Heng, only to hear the prince of Taihu Lake threatening him: "You are no longer the general who controls the lake, but just a patrolling official. If you don't obey my orders, I will make sure you never have a chance to turn things around."
The patrolling general's face flushed red, and blood seemed to be surging on his dark face, like a volcano about to erupt.
But the light from the Taihu God in Du Heng's hand was too bright, and it was so dazzling when it shone on him.
The patrolling general closed his eyes and said, "With the God here, we can naturally capture the fox demon."
Du Heng nodded with satisfaction and offered up the Taihu God. This jade-cup-like god was the color of Taihu Lake water. With the infusion of Du Heng's magic power, the entire Taihu Lake immediately changed its celestial phenomena.
Layer upon layer of dark clouds covered the moonlight completely.
The bright light above the Divine Scenery Palace gradually faded, and a fierce wind howled, and all the brilliant light converged, leaving only the three pearls shining. It was like two stars accompanying the moon, revealing a wonderful celestial spectacle.
Du Heng looked from afar and immediately recognized the red bead as his peerless treasure. However, his mind was no longer on the red bead, but on the moon-like elixir bead.
"Great, great! I lost one and gained three, so I made two!" Du Heng said happily.
