The ancestor of the Qin family, Qin Mingde, who celebrated his 900th birthday today, was sitting peacefully in a quiet room and was not in a hurry to go out to entertain the guests.
Qin Mingde is nine hundred years old, which is considered an advanced age among the Golden Core monks.
Because he had taken the elixir "Ding Yan Dan" in his early years, although his beard and hair were completely white, his face still remained the same as a mortal in his thirties or forties.
Today he is wearing a purple robe that represents indescribable preciousness, a Ming jewelery crown on his head, and a gold and jade belt on his waist. In addition to a space ring on his hand, he also wears three magic rings of different colors: blue, red and yellow.
White smoke curled up in the quiet room, lingering in the room for a long time. In the misty smoke, a trace of anxiety appeared on Qin Mingde's fair and rosy face.
Yes, anxious.
An emotion that is very inconsistent with Qin Mingde's status, an emotion that he has not seen for many years.
In the eyes of the Qin family members, and in the eyes of many outside monks, Qin Mingde, the ancestor of the Qin family, has always shown a majestic and stern face. Even if he moves his eyebrows a little, it must be a big deal.
.
"Are you sure? Are you sure that ancestor will really come here in person?"
Although he knew for a long time that the news was definitely not false, and even though he had asked it many times, Qin Mingde still couldn't help but ask it again.
"Yes, the ancestor was extremely satisfied with the treasure he sent last time. He has clearly sent a message through Sister Zhiyun and will personally come to my Qin family today to congratulate the ancestor on his birthday!"
The current patriarch of the Qin family, Qin Zhiyu, a seventh-level monk in the Zifu period, looked up at the family ancestor and respectfully repeated his answer without any trace of impatience on his face.
Qin Zhiyu is the half-brother of Qin Zhiyun, a Jindan-level monk of the Qin family in the Haoyang Sect. He was able to open up the Zifu and sit on the throne of the Qin family's clan leader, all because he had a Nascent Soul-level monk serving beside him.
A good sister, not because his ability is truly the most outstanding among the dozen or so Zifu period monks of the Qin family.
But even so, he did not dare to show any pride or disrespect in front of Qin Mingde, the ancestor of the Qin family.
Because he knew very well that Qin Mingde could make himself the head of the Qin family because of his sister's relationship, or he could also take away his position as the head of the clan.
The real power of the Qin family has always been in the hands of the ancestor who has ruled the Qin family for hundreds of years.
After being confirmed again, the look on Qin Mingde's face calmed down a lot, and then he nodded gently and said: "There are many guests today, and Wu Feng is the only one to receive them. I'm afraid they will be a little busy, and you, the clan leader, will also be here."
You don’t have to stay here with me, an old man, and go out and help Wu Feng share some work, don’t neglect those guests and make people laugh at my Qin family for being rude!"
"Yes, I will obey my ancestor's instructions."
Qin Zhiyu bowed respectfully again and quietly exited the quiet room.
Zhou Yang didn't feel that he was being treated lightly. Firstly, he didn't particularly care about these people with false pretenses. Secondly, he saw a large number of people like him at the main venue of the celebration. After walking up the mountain, he could only be picked up by a monk from the Qin family's Zifu period.
With the Zifuqi monk at his side, his mentality became much more balanced.
As the saying goes, seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. How powerful and powerful the Qin family is is never clearer than listening to others' introductions outside and seeing it yourself.
When Zhou Yang went up the mountain, he saw as many as eight monks from the Qin Family's Purple Mansion, and as many as seventy or eighty monks in the foundation-building period. This did not include those who were in charge of the important industries of the Qin Family, and those who were in important strongholds of the Niguang Alliance.
A monk from the Qin family who joined the army and garrisoned here.
To be honest, this was the first time Zhou Yang saw so many high-level monks and mid-level monks in a family. The Qin family's heritage was completely beyond his imagination.
These are just the hard power and inner strength of the Qin family.
The monks who came to the Qin family to celebrate their birthday today are a manifestation of the Qin family's external strength.
On Wanhua Mountain at this time, Zhou Yang saw as many as nine Jindan monks who had arrived, and as many as fifty-seven Zifu monks.
Zhou Yang, a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage, did not count them in detail, but with a quick look, he found that at least five hundred people had come to the venues where the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage held activities.
As for the monks in the Qi training stage, unless they are the juniors that are valued by a certain Jindan stage monk and are personally brought there, they are not even qualified to enter Wanhua Mountain.
Moreover, the number of monks who come to celebrate birthdays is still rising steadily, and I don’t know how many they will reach in the end.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, let me introduce to you. This is Fellow Daoist Wu Xian from Haoyang Sect. Fellow Daoist Wu is proficient in the art of making talismans and can already draw fourth-level high-grade spiritual talismans. If you are willing to give out some fifth-level animal skins in exchange,
, I think Fellow Daoist Wu will be willing to exchange his treasured fourth-level high-grade spiritual talismans with you!"
"And this one, this is fellow Taoist Zhen Zhiping from the Zhen family in Baiya Mountain. The Zhen family has been inherited for more than a thousand years. It used to be the Jindan family. Now, at the age of three hundred, fellow Taoist Zhen has reached the eighth floor of the Zifu.
The White Crow swordsmanship is so superb that he is known as the White Crow Swordsman!"
…
Probably because he and Zhou Yang got along well with each other during the conversation on the road, he felt that Zhou Yang was a person he could get along with. After Jin Qu saw some familiar monks at the Qin family celebration venue, he would also enthusiastically introduce Zhou Yang to him.
Make friends with these high-level monks in Jinyang.
Zhou Yang knew that this was a good opportunity to expand his social circle, so while thanking Jin Qu, he also treated the matter very carefully, and revealed without hesitation that he was a fourth-level high-grade refiner.
The matter of the weapon master.
Sure enough, after hearing that he was a fourth-level high-grade weapon refiner, several Zifu period monks who had been chatting with him in a casual manner immediately started chatting with him enthusiastically about various anecdotes in the world of immortality in order to bring them closer to each other.
relationship between.
The world is always so realistic. If Zhou Yang is just a monk in the late Zifu period, those monks who are in the same Zifu period with him will not be willing to spend much time talking to and making friends with him without any interests related to him.
However, many Zifu period monks would be happy to make friends with a fourth-level high-grade weapon refining master so that they could ask him to help them refine magic weapons when needed in the future.
Zhou Yang has long been accustomed to this, so when he should be high-profile, he will never keep a low profile and hide his clumsiness.
In this way, with a group of monks of the same level communicating together, Zhou Yang had no idea about the passage of time.
And whenever a golden elixir-level monk comes with a big gift, they will stop talking, and then talk about the origin of this golden elixir-level monk and the gift he gave, and show off their knowledge.
It was through their comments and comments that Zhou Yang gained a certain understanding of those Jindan monks. If he dealt with these Jindan monks again in the future, he might be able to use this knowledge.
After half a day had passed like this, Zhou Yang, who was having a lively chat with some fellow monks he had just met, suddenly heard his ears twitching and couldn't help but raise his head and look outside Wanhua Mountain.
"Hey, where did the fairy music come from?"
A Zifu monk let out a low cry, and then like Zhou Yang, couldn't help but look up in a certain direction outside the mountain.
I saw a cloud of colorful clouds suddenly floating in the sky due east of the mountain. The fairy sound that reached the ears of Zhou Yang and others was rising from the colorful clouds.
"That's...could it be that legendary thing!"
After Jin Qu stared at the colorful clouds with twinkling eyes for a while, his eyes suddenly widened and he couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
Zhou Yang heard what he said and was about to ask him what he saw. Wu Xian, a monk from the Haoyang Sect whom he had introduced to him before, already gave the answer with a complicated expression.
"Fellow Taoist Jin is right, that is the royal traveling magic weapon of my sect Master Guo [Five-Colored Yanluohu]!"
hiss!
After hearing Wu Xian's words, the sound of inhaling suddenly sounded from all over Wanhua Mountain.
Everyone knows that the Haoyang Sect currently has three Nascent Soul Stage monks, but there is only one named Guo, and that is Guo Jinhong, the number one among the three Supreme Elders of the Haoyang Sect, also known as the "Hongguang Master".
As the highest-level monk in the Haoyang Sect, Guo Jinhong, the "Master of Hongguang", has reached the sixth level of Yuanying, and is only one step away from the late stage of Yuanying.
Among the more than twenty Nascent Soul stage monks in the Niguang Alliance, "Hongguang Master" Guo Jinhong's cultivation level is enough to rank in the top five, which shows how powerful this ancestor is.
Now, such a Yuanying-level master, who is well-known throughout the Far West, actually comes to congratulate the ancestor of the Qin family on his birthday. This is really beyond everyone's expectations.
You must know that even if a Yuanying monk holds a birthday celebration, unless he is a senior in the immortal world like Guo Jinhong who has been famous for many years, it is difficult for other Yuanying monks to attend his birthday celebration.
Among the immortal cultivators who can cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, which one is not the best among people?
If they attend the birthday celebrations of monks of the same rank, it is easy for them to steal the spotlight from the longevity star and cause displeasure. On the other hand, if others compliment the longevity star, they will be left out in the cold, causing their own displeasure.
Therefore, monks in the Nascent Soul stage, unless it is a private meeting in private, or at the scene of some particularly important large-scale celebration, they will consciously maintain a "king does not see the king" situation.
Under such circumstances, Qin Mingde, the ancestor of the Qin family, celebrated his 900th birthday and was able to invite Guo Jinhong, a prestigious monk in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, to celebrate his birthday. How could he not surprise and shock the monks who knew the inside story?
"All Haoyang Sect monks will immediately come out to greet Patriarch Guo!"
When Zhou Yang and others were shocked and lost their minds, an elder from the Haoyang Sect at the golden elixir stage suddenly shouted loudly and stood up and flew into the sky.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Xian and other monks from the Haoyang Sect hurriedly followed Yu Jian and flew into the air, preparing to salute to welcome the arrival of the ancestor of the sect's Yuan Ying stage.
