“Such a rich fairy spirit!”
"Oh my god, what a huge pillar."
"I can't expand my spiritual consciousness. It's as if an infinite force is restraining me."
As soon as the nine demon lords arrived at the South Gate of Heaven, they were shocked by the majestic and vast Heavenly Palace before them, especially when they saw the Sky Pillar and the Milky Way, they were stunned.
Just as the demon lords were in shock, two figures had already walked out of the South Heaven Gate and came in front of Fang Jian.
"Master Hongqing, congratulations on your remarkable achievement in destroying the heretic demons and stabilizing the sentient beings in the Haolan world." The two immortals bowed to Fang Jian and congratulated him.
Fang Jian happened to know these two people. The one on the left was Qingyan, the boy beside the Queen Mother of the West, and the one on the right was Yu Zhen, the Left Lord of Lingxiao Palace.
Fang Jian listened to the two's congratulations and immediately returned the greeting, saying, "This is all due to the Four Great Emperors' wise leadership and the Great Envoy's wisdom and decisiveness. That's why I, Fang Jian, can lead the cultivators of the Haolan Realm to destroy the foreign demons."
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhen, the Left Celestial Monarch of Lingxiao Palace, immediately said, "Master Hongqing is right. This deity also agrees with Master Hongqing's words."
"..." Qingyan Tongzi looked at the two flatterers speechlessly, rolled his eyes, and quickly said, "Master Hongqing, the Great Lord has issued a decree, ordering the nine demon lords to come to the Taixuan Palace for an audience immediately."
Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately turned around and introduced the nine demon lords, "This is Qing Yan, the fairy child serving under the Grand Master."
The nine demon lords bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Immortal Child."
Fang Jian then pointed at Lingxiao Palace's Zuo Tianjun and said, "This is Lingxiao Palace's Zuo Tianjun, Yu Zhen, Yu Tianjun."
The nine demon lords immediately bowed to Yu Zhen and said, "Greetings to Lord Yu."
Yu Zhen smiled faintly and nodded in return to the nine demon lords. Then they said, "Master Hongqing, the Four Great Emperors have decreed that you come to the Lingxiao Palace for an audience."
Fang Jian accepted the order with a bow, and then once again instructed the nine demon lords, "When you go to see the Grand Master, you must not be disrespectful."
"Yes, Master Hongqing." The nine demon lords bowed and said.
Afterwards, Fang Jian followed Yu Zhen into the South Heaven Gate and headed towards the Lingxiao Palace.
After Fang Jian left, Qingyan Tongzi looked at the nine demon lords and said, "Follow me."
"Yes." The nine demon lords bowed and said.
Seeing their cautious demeanor, Qingyan Tongzi couldn't help but smile and said, "You don't have to be so formal. In fact, there aren't that many empty formalities in the Heavenly Court. On a normal day, people greet each other with a simple bow. Honestly, as long as you don't violate the Heavenly Rules, everything else is fine."
The nine demon lords only had a vague concept of the Heavenly Rules, but they kept the words of the boy Qingyan in mind. Whether it was Master Hongqing or the fairy boy under the seat of this great envoy, they were so solemn when talking about the Heavenly Rules. It can be seen that in this heavenly court, the Heavenly Rules must not be violated.
After entering the South Heaven Gate, the nine demon lords were attracted by everything in the heavenly palace.
The Milky Way flows clearly, and the Jade Starry Sky is full of stars.
Xuying followed behind Qingyan, his eyes completely lost in the splendor and magnificence of the stars in the sky.
When they were in the Haolan Realm, they thought that no matter how magnificent the Taoist temple was, it was just that. But when they saw the Heavenly Palace, they understood what true grandeur was.
The heavens are the foundation, the pillars of heaven are the four dimensions, the stars are hanging on the wall, and the Milky Way adorns the sky.
"Excuse me, fairy boy," Chongming asked, having recovered from the magnificent celestial scene, "I see that the fairies all come and go on foot. Why don't they fly?"
Qingyan Tongzi said, "Oh, I was just about to explain to you that we are in the Thirty-Three Heavens, the highest heaven in the world. This is the center of the Three Realms and the location of the Great Celestial Venerable's Xuanfu. Unless there is a 'Golden Edict', we are not allowed to fly without permission."
"I see." Chong Ming nodded and said suddenly.
At this moment, the nine demon lords suddenly saw a nine-colored belt appear in the fairy clouds in front of them. Then, the figures of immortals appeared one after another on the nine-colored belt, and flew towards the west with the rosy glow on their bodies.
The abilities of those gods and immortals vary. Some of them can be seen clearly by the Nine Demon Lords, while others are completely invisible to them.
Suddenly, Gu Fan exclaimed, pointed at the nine-colored cloud belt and said, "Look, the Four Heavenly Masters!"
When the four ancestral heavenly masters descended upon the Haolan Realm, they had visited the Canglan Sea. Therefore, all the Golden Immortals in the Canglan Sea had seen the four great heavenly masters, and that was why Gu Fan could recognize the four great heavenly masters from the passing immortals at a glance.
At this moment, the four great heavenly masters were seen wearing Taoist robes, with brilliant light on their heads, holding whisks in their hands, stepping on nine-colored clouds, chatting and laughing with a group of gods as they flew towards the west.
"Where are they going?" Gu Fan stared at the four celestial masters with immortal looks and couldn't help but ask Qingyan boy.
Qingyan Tongzi took a look and said with a smile, "Oh, the Four Heavenly Masters and all the immortals are going to Yaochi to attend the Peach Festival."
"Peach Festival?" The nine demon lords were a little confused. They only heard Du Lie say, "Is it a ceremony to eat peaches?"
The Qingyan boy laughed and said, "You are right about eating peaches, but those are not ordinary peaches, but the peaches of the Queen Mother of the West."
After saying this, the Qingyan boy explained to the nine demon lords, "There are 3,600 peach trees in the Queen Mother of the West's Yaochi. The first 1,200 trees have tiny flowers and small fruits, which ripen every 3,000 years. If a person eats them, they will attain immortality and transcend the mortal world. The middle 1,200 trees have layers of flowers and sweet fruits, which ripen every 6,000 years. If a person eats them, they will attain enlightenment, break through the cycle of reincarnation, and achieve immortality. The last 1,200 trees have purple veins and yellow seeds, which ripen every 9,000 years. If a person eats them, they will live as long as heaven and earth, as old as the sun and moon, eliminate karma and calamities, and avoid suffering from Dharma tribulations."
After hearing Qingyan Tongzi's explanation, the nine demon lords swallowed their saliva unconsciously. Who wouldn't want to try this magical fruit?
