Chapter 586: Number One in the World
Master Su really didn't want to see Xiao Lan's attitude. She looked at the river in front of her with a frown on her face.
She felt a vague demonic aura, which she couldn't fully see through with her level of cultivation. The other party's cultivation might be higher than hers.
Xiao Lan pestered Gu An for a long time before reluctantly coming to Master Su's side. She asked curiously, "Master, you have been frowning since just now. What are you looking at?"
Master Su turned his head and looked at her, wanting to say, "You finally remembered your master?" "There should be a big monster hidden in the river ahead. Your master is hesitating whether to change direction." Master Su replied softly.
When Xiao Lan heard this, her eyes lit up immediately and she asked, "What kind of monster is this? Compared to the Tianya Flood Dragon we encountered before, which one is stronger?"
"I'm afraid this monster is stronger than my master."
Master Su shook her head. She didn't mind showing weakness in front of her disciple.
When Xiao Lan heard this, she subconsciously looked at Gu An, then turned back to look at Master Su, frowned and said, "Then let's change the route."
Master Su was both relieved and helpless.
It’s gratifying that Xiao Lan is not that reckless, but it’s frustrating that this girl always considers Gu An first in everything.
Gu An looked at the big monster in the distance. There was a huge lake like an ocean in the lower reaches of the river. There, monsters and great monks were fighting for the relics of the War Court.
The great monk was proficient in the method of concealing his energy and did not leak any of it, so the battle was not earth-shattering.
The big demon was also afraid that the aura of the treasure would leak out, so he tried hard to restrain his demonic aura, but a lot of it still leaked out.
Watching them fighting, Gu An also began to have some ideas.
What kind of Taoist treasure should I refine for Xiao Lan?
…
As autumn approaches, the Third Medicinal Valley gradually turns yellow.
Under an old tree, Long Teng was meditating and practicing. His robe fluttered slightly and his body was surrounded by strong energy, like strands of dragon energy.
Long Qing walked towards him with a man, who was none other than Li Xuandao, the emperor of the Taicang Dynasty.
Li Xuandao was wearing a golden robe and a dragon crown on his head. His imperial aura could not be concealed, causing the disciples of Medicine Valley along the way to look at him frequently.
Since his Nirvana, Li Xuandao has thoroughly demonstrated his strength. Having been in power for 20,000 years, he has become the god in the hearts of the people of the Taicang Dynasty.
He and Long Qing were the two most powerful people in Taicang Continent. Many people were worried that they would break up and cause unrest. However, the relationship between the two had always been very good, which also made Taixuan Sect and Taicang Dynasty get along well, and any conflicts could be discussed.
Li Xuandao looked at Long Teng and his eyes suddenly lit up.
He has always had a bold guess in his heart. Before, a mysterious alien force came to look for Long Qing, and the appearance of Long Zhan Faxiang made him more certain of his guess.
The first time he saw Long Teng, he thought he looked like Gu An.
His face is sharper than Gu An's, and their facial features are highly similar.
The two of them came to Long Teng. Long Teng opened his eyes and he was stunned, his attention attracted by Li Xuandao.
What a domineering man!
This was Long Teng's first impression of Li Xuandao.
"Teng'er, this is the emperor of the Taicang Dynasty. He is an old friend of my master. Why don't you pay your respects quickly?" Long Qing said.
Hearing this, Long Teng immediately stood up and saluted towards Li Xuandao.
Li Xuandao smiled and said, "Seeing you reminds me of the first time I saw Yang Jian."
Yang Jian!
Long Teng had naturally heard of this name. This man was a legend of the Taixuan Sect and also his father's senior brother. He had made great contributions to the Taicang Dynasty and was still the strongest man in the Taicang Dynasty.
Before his master appeared, the person he admired most was Yang Jian.
In Taicang Continent, anyone over the age of six has heard of Yang Jian's story, which has led to the widespread circulation of Journey to the West, making it an eternal classic and canonized as a classic by the dynasty, even though some of the content in the book is objectionable.
"Follow me from now on. I will not treat you unfairly. I will make you the next Yang Jian, or even surpass him." Li Xuandao said with great pride.
After hearing this, Long Teng did not answer immediately, but looked at Long Qing.
Long Qing nodded and said, "I don't want the Long family to be too closely tied to the Taixuan Sect. It's a good choice for you to follow His Majesty and create something great. Once you have established your foothold, the Long family will move out."
Long Teng already knew the fate of the Long family, so he had no doubts. He clasped his fists towards Li Xuandao and bowed, which was considered as acceptance. This made Li Xuandao even happier, and he pulled him to sit down and talked about the past.
When Long Teng heard Li Xuandao mention his master, he became interested.
Now the person he was most curious about and longed for the most was his master Gu An. He wanted to know what kind of person his master was.
Li Xuandao started from the story of his first acquaintance with Gu An. Hearing that his master once played the role of a menial disciple made Long Teng even more interested.
When Long Teng learned that books like Investiture of the Gods, Journey to the West, and Tai Xuan Xian Zun were all written by his master, his eyes widened. No wonder these books were must-reads for disciples to get started, and were even studied as history.
Now he believes it.
Perhaps this is really the catastrophe that the master experienced.
Long Qing looked at Long Teng's expression and a smile appeared on his face.
Although he was planning to cut ties between the Long clan and the Taixuan Sect, he did not want his descendants to become alienated from their ancestor.
Without the ancestor, there would be no Long family. This is something that cannot be forgotten.
An hour passed quickly.
Li Xuandao supported his knees with his hands and said with a smile: "I plan to let you go to the Dao Court to practice for a period of time. When you return from your practice, I will appoint you as the general. The next era will be unprecedented prosperity. I want to sweep across the world's dynasties and establish a unified dynasty to create merits for all mortals in the world. I need you. This will be a long and arduous task, and you will experience countless battles."
When Long Teng heard this, his eyes suddenly became hot and even his breathing became rapid.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
"Is Dao Ting very powerful?" Long Teng asked curiously.
"In today's world, it is considered a first-class Taoist temple. Of course, if your master was still in Taixuan Sect, the Taoist temple would not even be worthy of carrying his shoes. I have already arranged everything. You only need to practice after you go there. I will have someone accompany you and help you deal with everything."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Long Teng said excitedly, his favorable impression of Li Xuandao greatly increased.
It was the first time that Long Qing felt Li Xuandao's personal charm. No wonder Senior Brother Yang Jian was willing to work for him for so many years.
It's better to serve the imperial power, so that no matter how powerful the Long family is, there will be someone to restrain them.
Long Qing thought so as he looked at Li Xuandao and Long Teng.
He began to look forward to Long Teng's performance many years later.
…
Eighty years have passed since Xiao Lan left Xiaozhuang. Master Su is finally ready to return to Daoting. Before leaving, Xiao Lan wanted to visit Xiaozhuang, and Master Su agreed.
This time, Master Su no longer walked forward. Instead, he cast a spell and brought Xiao Lan and Gu An back to Xiaozhuang in half an hour.
The three of them stayed for two days and then left. Before leaving, Xiao Lan left behind a lot of resources for cultivating immortals, which were enough to make Xiaozhuang take off. Many of these things came from Master Su.
Master Su understood Xiao Lan's thoughts very well. It was normal for everyone to benefit when one person achieved success.
She also hoped that Xiao Lan could practice without any worries.
The three of them rode on a cloud to the Taoist Temple.
When they were about to arrive at the Taoist Temple, Master Su turned his head to look at Xiao Lan and wanted to say something, but when he saw Xiao Lan holding Gu An's arm tightly, he swallowed his words.
That’s all!
Anyway, this girl didn't delay her cultivation.
Once her feelings for Gu An fade, everything will be fine.
Gu An is also very interested in Daoting because many of his old friends have become disciples of Daoting.
In the previous catastrophe outside the sky, Daoting showed the courage and responsibility of the world's number one religion. After that battle, its reputation soared, and more and more sects believed that Daoting was qualified to be the leader of the world and was worthy of trust.
The Dao Court was not stingy either. They did not require any sects in the world to submit, but only required an alliance. For every ally, they provided a place for training, allowing disciples from various sects to go and practice Taoism. As one foreign disciple after another returned from training, the reputation of the Dao Court was growing day by day.
Xiao Lan was also looking forward to the Dao Court. She said that she wanted to let Gu An live in her cave. According to Master Su, with her talent, she would receive high treatment in the Dao Court. The spiritual energy in the cave was extremely rich.
Faced with her expectations, Gu An agreed, which made Master Su shake his head, but he didn't say much.
Not long after, the spectacular sight of the Taoist Temple came into view among the three people.
The Dao Court occupies an entire continent. Layers of sea of clouds form above the continent, and Taoist temples and cities are built on the sea of clouds. The higher the level of cultivation, the higher the place you live. Before even setting foot on the continent, one can feel its majestic fortune, which is far beyond the reach of the Immortal Dynasty and the Holy Court of the past.
Gu An felt the aura of the Holy Prime Minister of the Holy Court and other high-level officials. The rapid expansion of the Dao Court was due to a lot of effort from the Holy Court and the old members of the Immortal Dynasty.
To be precise, the Dao Court was formed by the overlords of all the worlds before the universe was reshaped. The factions within the court are intricate and complicated, which is why the Dao Court did not forcibly swallow up other sects but chose to form an alliance, because their essence is also an alliance of sects.
