Cultivation of Immortality Begins from the Red Mansion

"It's been a long time since we last met, Shangguan Taoist friend. In fact, Jia's real name is Ji Lingyu. He was traveling in the East China Sea at that time, and he just assumed the surname Jia when he was away from home."

Shangguan Yun smiled lightly and said: "It is normal for monks to be cautious. Fellow Taoist Ji does not need to explain too much. What sect does Fellow Taoist belong to now? Why is he so lonely in this teahouse?"

Ji Lingyu had nothing to hide. The Imperial City Conference was about to be held. By then, his identity, skills, etc. would all be exposed to the public and he would no longer be able to hide anything.

"I have just joined the Xiaoyao Sword Sect, and I am about to attend the Imperial City Conference. Is Taoist Fellow Shangguan here also to participate in this grand event?"

Shangguan Yun's beautiful eyebrows suddenly widened, and she stared at the young man in red across from her in surprise. After a while, he realized what he was doing and said apologetically: "I heard a little bit about Taoist Fellow Daoist for the first time. I hope you don't take offense."

She said with a sad expression: "The Shangguan family has prepared a few people to attend the Imperial City Conference, but I have made no progress in breaking through the Golden Core for more than a hundred years. How can I expect to have the opportunity to participate in such a grand event? Even if I want to take a look, I can't. ”

Ji Lingyu's expression remained unchanged, but he was secretly confused. Why couldn't even the Golden Core cultivators see this grand event in the imperial city?

"Could it be held in some fairy mountain blessed place?"

Shangguan Yun saw the young man in red muttering to himself, and stared at him for a while in a strange way.

"Since you are participating in the Imperial City Conference, don't you know that the Imperial City Conference is not accessible to just any Golden Elixir monk? Each sect led by Yuanying Monk can only choose one Golden Elixir monk to participate in the conference. Only two Jindan monks from the Demonic Sect can participate in the meeting.”

"My Shangguan family has golden elixir monks in the Sanqing Sect, the Blood Demon Sect and the subordinate palaces, but they are just attending the Imperial City Conference as a spectator. This is the place that was obtained after fighting for it among the local immortal cultivating families in the East China Sea. ”

If Ji Lingyu has some enlightenment, he will understand.

He laughed and said: "I see, I used to be a casual cultivator, but I just recently joined the Xiaoyao Sword Sect. I am really ignorant."

His expression changed again and he said: "I wonder what is happening to fellow Daoist Shangguanhong now. I used to be a registered disciple under Elder Dongfang of Yuqing Palace for a while. Later, I was in danger during a mission and could never go back."

"Oh! Fellow Daoist Ji also knows Hong'er? He is my nephew. After the Golden Elixir monk from Demon Spirit Palace sacrificed blood to Xiao Family Yunqing Mountain, he was injured and fled back to Yuqing Palace. However, he gained insight into his own swordsmanship and broke through the Golden Elixir. A few years ago, He has also broken through to the middle stage of the Golden Core. This time he also came to the Imperial City Conference, and he will participate in the Yuqing Palace. "

"I never expected that fellow Daoist Shangguan Hong would be in such a situation. He could understand his own martial arts and swordsmanship even though he was injured. I admire him so much that I feel inferior to him. I am sure he will be unparalleled in the Imperial City Conference."

But Shangguan Yun shook her head and said: "In this imperial city conference, there are countless talented monks from various major sects, and it must be extremely dangerous. I don't expect Hong'er to be so stunning and unparalleled, as long as he can be safe and sound." It’s a blessing to be back.”

Shangguan Yun said this, smiled faintly, put down a piece of green jade pendant on the mahogany table and said: "I won't disturb you anymore. If you have time, you can go to Shangguan's shop, Qingdan Pavilion. This jade pendant says If you have any questions, you can call me."

"Friend Shangguan, please go slowly. If I have some free time, I will definitely go to Qingdan Pavilion to have a look."

Ji Lingyu saw Shangguan Yun's delicate figure floating away, and soon disappeared at the stairs of the top-floor teahouse.

He shook his head involuntarily and looked at the cyan jade pendant on the mahogany table. He picked it up with one hand and looked at it. It was an ordinary communication object, nothing fancy at all.

He put it into his sleeves, raised his eyebrows and looked at the cool tea on the table, poured out a cup, and drank it slowly.

"It's really unreasonable. I worked hard to refine elixirs and took great risks to find spiritual beings in the world. In the end, I was still in the early stage of the golden elixir. Shangguanhong actually broke through to the middle stage of the golden elixir based on his injury. Sword cultivators are really not normal monks. Can't I? Practice swordsmanship?”

"Master Cangyun Sword Lord said that I don't have any talent for swordsmanship. Why don't I believe it at all?"

The young man in red robe was indignant at the moment, his face was gloomy, and his sharp eyebrows flashed with cold light in his eyes.

He drank all the cold tea on the table without even realizing it.

At this time, in the tea room on the top floor of the attic, all the Jindan monks who were talking loudly around them were nowhere to be seen, and there was no one around.

Ji Lingyu secretly felt that something was wrong. When he came back to his senses, he saw that only a few mortal maids were still clearing the table. He couldn't help but frowned. All these high-level monks had left at this moment. Could it be that something big had happened?

At this moment, something moved in his mind, and a big yellow token appeared in his hand. At this time, the token glowed yellow and buzzed.

"Is Mrs. Xiaoyao looking for me? Xiaoyaomeng would use the communication jade pendant to find me, but I have never used this Xiaoyao Sword Sect token."

Ji Lingyu only hesitated for a moment, then got up and quickly left the teahouse and headed to the inner palace of the Imperial City. The scene now is probably that the Imperial City Conference has begun. Counting the days, it is almost the time that the Seventh Young Master said.

Along the way, I saw many high-level Jindan monks hurriedly heading towards the northern inner city.

After a while, he also arrived in front of the palace gate. At this time, he saw that the huge gate in the middle, which was several hundred feet wide and had never been opened, had opened the middle gate.

A group of more than a dozen Jindan monks stood upright. The leader, a middle-aged man in black, was the Emperor of Qin who was at the peak of Jindan cultivation.

At this time, there was actually a thousand-foot-long golden dragon boat flying down from the sky. Soon, a group of young men and women in yellow jumped down from it, with as many as a dozen people.

The leader was a tall and graceful young man with a handsome face and an expressionless face. With one hand he put the huge golden dragon boat in the air back into his sleeve and headed straight for the central inner city gate.

"Senior Long is here. The Ying family is not welcoming you from afar, and it is disrespectful and disrespectful!"

The tall man said nothing and led a group of young men and women in yellow into the city. No one dared to step forward to check.

The Emperor of Qin, who was dressed in black, did not take it seriously and remained respectful. When the young men and women in yellow entered the palace, they turned back and looked forward.

At this time, another huge white treasure ship measuring more than a thousand feet came from the sky ahead.

Ji Lingyu was queuing up at the side door on the left to enter the palace. There was a group of golden elixir monks in front of them, led by an old man in black who couldn't see through their cultivation.

"This person is at least a peak Golden Core cultivator. The royal family of the surname Ying has a profound background. The Nascent Soul cultivator hasn't come out yet. The tall young man in yellow robe just now should be a Nascent Soul cultivator. He doesn't even care about the Emperor of Qin who is at the peak of the Golden Core."

At this time, all the monks in front had entered the palace city, and Ji Lingyu also stepped forward and showed the yellow token of Xiaoyao Sword Sect.

The old man in black nodded without saying a word. Behind him, a group of junior and middle-level Jindan monks looked solemn and stared intently.

He quickly walked to the side door in front. There was no longer a gray light screen formation restriction here, only a dark city gate, but Ji Lingyu couldn't see anything clearly with the blood-red light flashing in his eyes.

Without any hesitation, he went straight to the city gate.
