Chapter 518: Water Scroll Changes, My Concubine's Name is Fang Zhu
After hundreds of years of development, both openly and covertly, the belief in Wutongshen spread throughout the south of the Yangtze River.
It can be found everywhere, from Jiangnan Road and Lingnan Road, west to the two lakes and south to Guangdong and Guangxi.
The God of the Earth sends incense and news from all over the place every day. These news are finally gathered in front of King Tongyou and shared with the Five Gods.
The Great Immortal Jin Ting couldn't imagine why the Five Evil Gods could spread their poison to such an extent.
When Da Gan was not yet at its peak, Wutong Shen was already an undercurrent beneath the bright light. When Da Gan was weak, this undercurrent had already turned into a wave.
Now that the world is in chaos, it has revealed itself unconsciously, and is more powerful than any other righteous sect.
This behemoth has accumulated infinite luck, infinite incense, and carried infinite people's wishes, becoming an unmatched monster.
If the Great Immortal Jin Ting had not been inside this monster, he would never have been able to see the monster's true appearance, nor could he have imagined what the monster looked like.
Being inside this monster, Jin Ting Daxian also became one of its tentacle.
King Tonghui invited the Immortal Jinting to the Baoguang Palace and said, "King Wu has received the news. Soon the entire Jiangnan Road will be mobilized."
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "Although the situation in Dagan is chaotic, it's not yet at its deathbed. Is the King of Wu planning to rebel now? I'm afraid the gains will outweigh the losses, and he'll even bring us into trouble."
King Tonghui said, "It is certainly not the right time to declare myself king, but it is the right time to seize this opportunity to firmly grasp the Jiangnan Road."
"Those in the Dagan court will be purged soon. They either surrender or their entire clan will be exterminated. There's no other choice. Those who practice cultivation or follow the ways of the gods can still survive if they close their eyes and ignore worldly affairs. But if they stand in the way of King Wu's army, we'll have to take action."
"If gods block the way, the Great City God will deal with it. If cultivators block the way, we will deal with it."
"Great Immortal, I know you look down on mediocre people. I dare not trouble you to help King Wu capture people, but to deal with cultivators, you are needed to lead the troops. I have to stay in Gusu and oversee the overall situation, so I cannot lead the troops. You will be in charge of all the water troops."
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "It is my honor to share the worries of the Four Kings, but it is a tiring job, traveling back and forth, and I don't know when it will end."
His eyes spoke for themselves.
King Tonghui laughed. Ever since the Bewitching Spider hatched from the body of the Great Immortal Jin Ting, the Great Immortal Jin Ting's status had risen. He went from being a subordinate to being one of his own, a true member of his own.
King Tonghui said, "You led the troops into battle, and it's not enough for you to dispose of all the spoils yourself? And yet you come to me for a bargain?"
The Immortal Jin Ting shook his head and said, "The four kings stayed in Gusu to enjoy themselves, and sent me out to suffer. It would be fine if it took some time, but it would delay my cultivation. When will I be able to achieve the fourth rank?"
King Tonghui was persuaded by his words and asked, "I have promised you that I would help you cultivate. Now, what do you want?"
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "I want the Water Scroll."
King Tonghui was stunned for a moment, a certain light flickered, and he already knew the whole story. He then looked at the Immortal Jinting and studied him carefully, but he couldn't fully understand him. He could only say, "Did my elder brother tell you that?"
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "The Great King is so kind that he has passed on the Heavenly Scroll to me."
King Tonghui asked, "Have you succeeded?"
The Immortal Jin Ting frowned slightly, revealing a look of disapproval. He said, "Why do the Four Kings like to speak out without even giving me a sliver of face?"
King Tonghui laughed and said, "Alright, I won't ask any more questions. Compared to the Heavenly Scroll, the Water Scroll is indeed more suitable for you. Since you are in charge of the Water Department, you can take this opportunity to comprehend the Water Scroll. It should not be difficult."
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "That's exactly what happened."
King Tonghui then passed the water scroll to the Immortal Jinting and said, "You don't have much time left. King Wu is not a man of indecision. Before you get busy, you should meditate for a while."
Since the Immortal Jin Ting had obtained the Water Scroll, he naturally followed the advice of King Tonghui.
King Tonghui continued, "But there's no need to rush today. You should accompany us to Mother's place today. Mother said that she invited you last time but didn't invite you to dinner, and she's been thinking about you ever since. Let's go together today."
The Immortal Jin Ting naturally agreed and went to Zhuangzi with the God of Five Powers, where he had a meal with the Holy Mother of Taijun.
With her children in front of her, the Holy Mother of Tai County was obviously very happy. The Immortal Jin Ting came to visit again, and her face was full of smiles.
Qiong Niang deliberately avoided the Immortal Jin Ting, and the Immortal Jin Ting did not want to be annoyed. However, during the banquet, the Five-Directions God told the Holy Mother that he might be busy later and would not be able to accompany her all the time, which made the Holy Mother of Tai County look lonely.
She didn't stop him, but just said, "It's better to be cautious in everything." That was all she said.
The Holy Mother of Taijun and the Immortal Jinting also chatted for a while and liked him very much.
After dinner, Jin Ting Daxian did not stay long. He said goodbye and returned to Shenjing Palace, concentrating on comprehending the Water Scroll.
With the Water Scroll in hand, he felt it was even simpler than the Heavenly Scroll. After all, the Heavenly Scroll was the most extensive, especially in its involvement with the transformations of yin and yang, which was not Jin Ting Daxian's strong point.
But the Water Scroll - the Taihu God, the treasure of Taihu Water Palace, had been in his hands for a long time. He had comprehended the water law with the help of Taihu God.
The Taiyin Water Symbol had long been within his Taoism, and it was simpler to comprehend than he had imagined.
The Five Powerful Gods cultivated the Five Treasure Wheels. For King Tongfu, it became a golden wheel, and for King Tonghui, it became an iron wheel. But in the hands of the Great Immortal Jinting, one was a cyan wheel with a blue dragon encircling it and a bright moon orbiting around it, while the other was a water wheel with rippling water, wind and rain transforming into dragons, and a bright moon hanging high in the sky.
This treasure wheel is like his moon wheel, mixed with his magical powers, flowing according to his will, appearing and disappearing behind him.
The great principles are the same, and even if the methods they evolve are different, they still have something in common.
While practicing the Water Scroll, Jin Ting Daxian was already thinking about how to get the remaining three scrolls.
He hadn't figured out how to implement it yet, and the assignment from Shangfangshan hadn't been issued yet, when Shenjing Palace was first visited by a guest.
The guest came with a damp mist, his black clothes swaying in the wind, his hair like dark clouds, his skin like ice and snow, and sadness in his eyes. He knocked on the door of Shenjing Palace.
The Taoist priests of Shenjing Palace have seen many aquatic creatures recently. When they saw this guest coming with a watery smell, they knew that he was another aquatic creature.
The guest asked softly, "Excuse me, Taoist priest. May I ask if the Immortal Jin Ting is cultivating in the treasure land?"
The Taoist felt relieved after hearing this. Although there were many aquatic creatures coming and going, not many were so polite.
The Taoist said, "The Immortal Jin Ting is practicing here. Please wait a moment. I don't know your name so I can go and inform you."
The guest bowed, took out a small brocade bag and put it in the Taoist's palm, saying, "Thank you, Taoist priest."
"Please inform the Immortal Jin Ting that my name is Fang Zhu and I live in Chaoyin Cave. I hope you will spare some time to meet me."
