Chapter 332 Nighttime Banquet (6)
The world below is all-encompassing and extremely interesting.
One dragonfly cultivator was completely unaware that his frog appearance had faded and changed, and continued to chat with the frog cultivator next to him. Then, the frog cultivator, who had been drooling for a long time, rolled his tongue up and swallowed him.
Ji Rong, watching the scene of devouring, was frowning and about to return to her seat when...
But then the frog cultivator who had swallowed the dragonfly immediately spat out a jade statue carved into the shape of a dragonfly, and then it itself transformed into a green frog jade statue and fell into the pond.
A point of white light rose from where he landed, only to be speared into the air by the little figure holding the golden lotus leaf stem.
Then, a few bubbles rose to the surface of the water, and two frogs crawled out. They climbed onto the lotus leaves and began to talk, eat, and drink as before.
It really is:
Truth and falsehood intertwined, illusion and reality reflected each other—what a carefree night sky!
Ji Rong couldn't help but flap her wings and claws, turning back to call out to the Yuanjun on the lotus throne, "Yuanjun, your banquet is truly unparalleled!"
Upon hearing this, the Yuanjun at the head of the table laughed and said, "It has been a long time since a cultivator has addressed me as 'Your Excellency'."
Kiyohime, did you enjoy my banquet?
Ji Rong nodded and said, "I like it!"
"Alright." The aloof beauty grinned and said, "Kiyohime, you must stay until the very end; Jue-kun, you too."
"Leave it for last?" Ji Rong's heart skipped a beat, but then she thought, "Since I have the Horned Jade, what's there to be afraid of?"
She nodded vigorously like a chick pecking at rice, and said, "Lord Yuanjun, if I stay until the end of the banquet, could you give me a small jar of Yin Hua Water that will not dissipate with the sun and will keep cultivators from being confused? I... I want to take it back for my brother and sister to try."
Yuanjun nodded with a smile, and pointed to the sky. Immediately, a large firefly cultivator flew over and said, "Asi, when the banquet ends, remember to fill a pot with a thousand-year-old Yinhua Dew for Qingji Zi."
Ah Si nodded and followed behind Ji Rong, sitting on the lotus leaf with her to watch the play.
The two lotus leaves gradually overlapped and stopped moving. Ji Rong saw from above that below were not only various multi-legged, multi-clawed, and multi-headed birds, beasts, insects, fish, and cultivators, but also...
There were also strange spirits that looked exactly like trees and flowers, waving their roots and running around. They dipped their roots in wine in large cups, and the flowers and leaves moved, appearing just as happy.
Ji Rong also saw that on the shore, there were dozens of firefly cultivators driving the small lotus leaves to build a bridge to the shore.
As soon as the small lotus leaf bridge was built, the many peonies, peonies, forsythia, and other flowers that I couldn't name, which had been waiting on the bank for a long time, all rushed up to the lotus leaf by their roots.
As soon as they landed on the golden lotus leaves, the fragrance of various flowers mingled with the lotus scent, creating a sweet and intoxicating aroma. This caused the cultivators, who resembled bees, to stop drinking and instead, like villains, surrounded the flower spirits and began to devour them from the flower stamens.
In the water, fish would occasionally leap onto the lotus leaves, transforming into various colored fish-headed figures with legs, running to the shore to snatch wine. Some of the cultivators who were sitting there would impatiently kick them back into the water.
Some waterfowl cultivators would happily let those clueless fish that had just come ashore sit down, then open their mouths wide and devour them.
Some cultivators will let the cold golden light shine all over their bodies, revealing their true appearance.
The same is true of the Thousand-Faced Great Sage Youhe, but its true form has already been revealed.
It was drinking by itself beside the table, all alone on the vast expanse of lotus leaves, looking quite lonely.
Some cultivators would deliberately avoid the cold golden light and hide in the gaps between the lotus leaves.
Some cultivators, unable to avoid the cold golden light, began to gulp down their wine.
Among them was the enormous Dream Maiden, whose body was covered in gray-brown thorns. Her body alone occupied three golden lotus leaves, making it impossible for her to avoid the cold golden light.
So she simply started pouring the wine into her big mouth.
But this method didn't work very well. As the cold golden light shone on her skin, the brown, spiky skin continued to melt away, and before long, she had shrunk considerably, looking quite pitiful.
When she could no longer drink, her figure shrank continuously in the cold golden light, eventually transforming into a fat toad about four feet long and three feet tall, which rolled to the side and fell fast asleep.
Upon seeing the dream maiden transform into a toad, Ji Rong immediately plopped down on a lotus leaf, clutching her stomach and bursting into laughter.
Yi Qingguanzi roared happily as he slid towards them, knocking a group of hiding cultivators into the golden light.
He also revealed his original form as an earth dragon. He raised his head and called out to Ji Rong, "Junior sister, is it fun?"
Ji Rong stood up, spread her wings, and vigorously waved them to the side, saying, "Fun!"
Qing Guanzi then raised his head and said, "Junior sister, I'll take you to play with the lotus leaves."
Ji Rong nodded excitedly. She flapped her wings and ran back to Jiao Jue, calling out, "Big brother, I'm going to play with my senior brother." Then she flapped her wings and jumped down from the edge of the lotus leaf.
Qing Guanzi led Ji Rong as they glided along the golden lotus leaf path. Cultivators passing by gave way, while others, inspired by their actions, followed behind and began to glide.
They glided down the large lotus leaves towards the smaller ones. When they encountered unstable spots, Qing Guanzi used its claws to create a cloud of mist and climb over, while Ji Rong flapped its wings, gliding and flying along the way.
But the smaller repairmen weren't so lucky; all that could be heard was the continuous "plop, plop" of them falling into the water.
Some were simply too heavy and couldn't control their weight, causing the small golden lotus leaves to droop and fall into the water.
When Qing Guanzi led Ji Rong down the two golden lotus leaves that resembled giant snake tails and they arrived at the shore, the once grand skating team was now reduced to just the two of them.
Surrounded by bright light, Ji Rong and Qing Guanzi stood in the air, watching the small round moons in the Jade Liquid Pool move toward the center.
Ji Rong watched as the bird feathers on her head gradually transformed into brown roots in the moonlit pool. What was even more strange to her was that she gradually lost her sense of her spiritual center.
The man next to me, Qing Guanzi, was gradually changing. His features faded little by little under the moonlight, and a faint red appeared on his earthy yellow face.
Ji Rong looked at Qing Guanzi and asked, "Senior Brother Guanshan, what's going on?"
"Oh dear, it's gotten this late already." Qing Guanzi laughed. "Junior sister, come up on my back, I'll take you to Juejun so you can continue watching the show. It's about to start."
Upon hearing this, Ji Rong struggled to flap its wings and climb onto Qing Guanzi's body, but Qing Guanzi's neck became increasingly slippery, making it impossible for it to climb up.
Qing Guanzi then extended his long beak and curled up Ji Rong, before quickly swimming towards the lotus leaf.
