Chapter 1247 Wine at the Banquet
The atmosphere in the Sixiang Hall was warm. After learning that Liu Qinghuan was Yunqing, the attitudes of the Wanhujie Mahayana monks were obviously more cordial than before, and they all came forward to congratulate Liu Qinghuan on his promotion to the Mahayana.
Li Shan said with joy on his face: "Eighteen Heavenly Tribulations and Mahayana practitioners are also called Daokui. They are all people with extraordinary strength and great luck. There are few Daokui in ancient times, and every one of them is recorded in history." , and now the name of brother Qinglin has been added, this not only indicates that the current world of immortal cultivation is about to usher in another round of glory and prosperity, but it is also a blessing for our entire world, from cultivators to mortals!"
Liu Qinghuan looked humble on his face, but secretly thought that Li Shan was indeed an old fox. In just a few words, he not only changed his title from an ordinary "taoist friend" to a close "brother", but also wanted to tie him up for tens of thousands of dollars. How could he not hear the temptation of this ship in Hujie?
This person is far from being as free and uninhibited as he appears on the surface. Instead, he is very eloquent and cunning.
However, Liu Qinghuan doesn't have much objection to this. The Wanhu Realm is an important realm of Qingming and ranks among the three thousand realms. If there is such a huge interface as a backing, it will only affect his future actions. The pros outweigh the cons.
He stood up and changed his title in a good-natured way, saying: "Brother Li, I was born in Yunmengze. Yunmengze was unfortunately separated from the main realm and suffered bullying from other realms. Just the sealing war that was on the verge of annihilation. Just hit it twice.”
Liu Qinghuan seemed to think of the tragic and tragic war scenes in which countless Yunmengze monks fought one after another in order to resist the invasion from the outside world, risking their own lives, and she was filled with emotion.
The atmosphere in the hall became a little dull, and everyone in Wanhu remained silent. Liu Qinghuan glanced at everyone, changed the topic, and said with an excited expression: "Fortunately, all this has passed. Since returning to Wanhu, I, the monk Yunmengze, finally no longer suffer from the pain of being displaced and can live a peaceful life."
He clasped his hands in the air and said seriously: "Therefore, although I was born in Yunmengze, I grew up in Wanhu. Fortunately, I have the protection of the main world, and I am what I am today. If I can contribute some small amount to the prosperity of Wanhu, then That’s what I should do, and I share the honor and disgrace of the interface!”
As soon as these words were spoken, it was equivalent to a promise, a promise that Yun Mengze and Wan Hujie were one, and that he would try his best to fight for Wan Hu's interests in some major events in the future.
As a Taoist leader, even though Liu Qinghuan has just started Mahayana, his words will definitely carry weight and influence in the Three Thousand Realms.
Sure enough, everyone present's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they all looked satisfied. Li Shan even laughed boldly, raised his glass and said loudly: "Okay! What a good person to share weal and woe! Everyone, please join me, Let’s have a drink together, Taoist Qinglin!”
"Not bad!" The others also cheered, holding up their wine glasses: "To my fellow Taoist!"
Interests are always the best allies. Common interests can even make hatred disappear and make enemies feel like one family. There were bursts of laughter in the Sixiang Hall, but I didn’t know how much of the laughter was true and how much of it was fake.
The wine was full of enthusiasm. As the current leader of the Immortal Alliance, Jingyan took the initiative to ask: "I wonder when fellow Taoist Qinglin is going to hold the Lingxu Ceremony. Have you chosen a date? At that time, many colleagues from other interfaces will come. Do you need help from our Immortal Alliance to watch the ceremony?"
The celebration ceremony for promotion to the Mahayana is also called the Lingxu Ceremony. Jingyan proposed it now because she thought that as soon as the news of Liu Qinghuan as the Taoist priest spread, it would definitely cause a great sensation, and the Wenshi sect may not have enough experience in these matters. The disciples of the sect are not as experienced as the big sect like the Taiqing sect, so they are afraid that they will not be able to hold this grand ceremony.
But Liu Qinghuan pondered for a moment and said: "I am not planning to hold the Lingxu Ceremony. It would be too much work for the teachers and people. It will be enough to accept the kowtows from the disciples."
Everyone looked over in surprise and expressed their disapproval.
"How can we not hold the Lingxu Ceremony? What a glorious event for the sect. Isn't this the day we and other monks have been looking forward to? This matter must not be omitted!"
"I think it's Taoist fellow who wants to be lazy. You can't do anything with all the effort, not to mention the Immortal Alliance to help. You just need to show your face when the time comes."
"Yes, you can receive countless rare gifts just by sitting down. It would be a great loss if you don't do it!"
However, Liu Qinghuan had already made up his mind, and everyone's persuasion could not change his decision, so he could only give up with regret.
The reason why Liu Qinghuan didn't want to hold the Lingxu Ceremony was because it was too troublesome. On the other hand, it was also because the Dao Chief was already publicized enough. If he held a grand ceremony again, it would inevitably have the appearance of being cooked by fire and then declining after its peak. Good omen.
Jingyan couldn't hold on any longer, so she changed the subject and said, "By the way, I have something to discuss with my Taoist friends. Now that you have entered Mahayana, do you think it's time to remove the boundary wall that hinders monk Yun Mengze from communicating with the outside world? It’s time?”
Liu Qinghuan's eyes flashed and he said calmly: "Isn't the agreement Yun Mengze signed with the main world still some years old?"
"It's almost due." Jing Yan said: "I also plan for each other. After all, maintaining the wall of the realm requires a huge amount of spiritual stones and spiritual materials every year. However, if you Yun Mengze insists on waiting until the agreement expires, If we withdraw the wall again, the Immortal Alliance will understand."
"Hahaha!" Liu Qinghuan said with a smile: "No, let's withdraw. It's only a matter of time anyway, so there's no shortage of time."
It has to be said that Jingyan raised this matter at the right time. He had just made a promise to everyone in Wanhu not long ago. If he insists on not withdrawing the wall at this time, it seems a bit insincere. And after his Mahayana, people or forces who dare to covet Yun Mengze may have to think more carefully. The role of the boundary wall is no longer significant.
"That's very good!" Jing Yan said with a satisfied smile, and the atmosphere in the palace became more relaxed. For a while, they drank and drank together.
After drinking for three rounds, Liu Qinghuan suddenly remembered something and asked: "Speaking of which, I don't know something. It's been more than a thousand years. Why hasn't the Mingshan battle field been opened yet? Do you fellow Taoists know the reason?"
Li Shan leaned on the chair and said in a casual tone: "What's so strange about this? The start and end of each war season is inherently uncertain. It can range from hundreds of years to thousands of years. There was once a battle in Mingshan. The domain was closed for more than 8,000 years before it was reopened.”
As he spoke, he drank a glass of wine with a smile, and added: "Moreover, it is said that the longer the war zone is closed, the more spiritual treasures will be generated, and the higher their grade will be, so this is not a bad thing."
Speaking of this, everyone suddenly remembered that the fairy treasure from the last war season ended up in the hands of Liu Qinghuan, who was only a combined practitioner at that time. Their emotions couldn't help but be very complicated, and they didn't know if they were jealous or envious.
Now that this person is a Mahayana, even if you want to snatch it, you have to think carefully. After all, I heard that every Taoist leader has super-level tyrannical strength, and Liu Qinghuan not only killed Mahayana during the integration stage, but also the demon capital of the demon clan. Its ruined. Coupled with his past deeds, it only makes people more fearful.
No matter what everyone present thought, on the surface, this small banquet was very harmonious and did not break up until late in the evening.
After that, the news that Liu Qinghuan was the Taoist priest soon spread from the Wanhu Realm, and the entire world of immortal cultivation was excited. Even if they heard that he would not hold the Lingxu Ceremony, many people still rushed to Yunmengze, and some even Many invitations from all walks of life flew into Wenshi School.
"Don't send some unimportant invitations." Liu Qinghuan felt a headache when she saw Ying Niang coming in with a stack of letters, and quickly waved her hand.
In the past few days, he first dealt with tens of thousands of people, and then met various Yunmengze sects who came to congratulate him. There were also some Mahayana monks who came from the outside world to meet, and they also had to be worshiped by their disciples. He was very busy. There was almost no time to take a breath.
However, Ying Niang unceremoniously stuffed the pile of colorful letters into his hand and said: "These are important invitations that the leader and I have jointly selected and cannot be refused casually. For example, this one is from Jiu Celestial Alliance, this one is Taoist Taihao, one of the Three Extremes of Qingming..."
"Huh?" Liu Qinghuan felt moved and took the clay-gold letter. As expected, it had the seal of Banshan Academy on it.
