The monk in charge of the formation scanned the jade tablet in her hand with his spiritual consciousness, and after confirming that it was correct, he introduced Xu Chunniang into a secret teleportation formation.
The white light lit up and her figure disappeared into the formation.
Compared with the other islands under its jurisdiction, Yanzhou Ancestral Island is not only larger in area, but also more spiritual. The trees on the island are tall and lush, and there is a hint of ancient and vast atmosphere.
After Xu Chunniang left the teleportation array, she walked towards the discussion venue under the guidance of a monk.
"The discussion venue is just ahead. Fairies can go there on their own. The Ancestral Island is an important place and is the origin of our Yanzhou. There are many prohibitions on the island. I hope the fairies will not walk around at will."
The speaker had a smile on his face, and his politeness contained a hint of warning.
Usually, there are many monks who come to Zu Island for the first time and wander around on the island, causing some trouble.
Xu Chunniang nodded slightly and walked towards the discussion venue.
Before reaching the venue, several arguments could be heard in the distance.
"Master Qingzhu's words are wrong. If you follow nature in everything and don't fight or fight, how can you go a long way on the road of spiritual cultivation? What Master Qingzhu said is just that your background is better than most people, and you don't need to worry about it anymore.
Just go and fight."
"We, the monks from small families, are naturally inferior to the big families. If we don't compete, how can we compete with them?"
Listening to everyone's objections, Master Qingzhu remained silent for a long time before speaking.
"Tao teaches all things and is natural. Everyone's understanding of Tao is different. The Tao that suits me may not suit you."
"Isn't Master Qingzhu trying to frustrate us with these remarks?"
"That is, how can there be any indisputable truth in the method of cultivating Taoism in this world? Natural selection, survival of the fittest, is the truth in the world."
"Take the battle between us and the sea monsters as an example. If we don't fight, our human island will be surrendered. Master Qingzhu ranks in the top 100 on the merit list and has killed countless sea monsters, but now he advises us to wait.
Isn’t it ridiculous to follow destiny?”
A tall and thin male cultivator said this. He caught a glimpse of Xu Chunniang walking towards the venue and recognized her identity. "What do you think I said, Fairy Miaofa?"
Xu Chunniang glanced around and saw that the discussion meeting had just begun and there were not many people seated here.
But those who came to Zu Island to participate in this forum were all monks who ranked high on the merit list.
This tall and lanky male monk is named Tunyue. He possesses the cultivation level of the late Golden Elixir. He is named after his magical power of swallowing the mountain. He ranks over 300 on the list of meritorious deeds.
Seeing other people looking at her because of Master Tunyue's words, Xu Chunniang spoke calmly.
"There are three thousand Taoist teachings in the world, and there are as many Taoists as there are countless Taoists. The true meaning of the Tao is not something I can talk about lightly."
Master Tunyue frowned slightly, it was just that the magician did not agree with his point of view, and he also said that Taoism should not be discussed lightly, which was simply inexplicable.
If according to what she said, Taoism is not spoken lightly, what meaning would this discussion of Taoism have?
"Fairy Miaofa is too modest. Although you are only over 900 on the merit list, in the past few months, we have watched helplessly as you went from being unknown to where you are today.
The more we argue, the clearer the principles become, and the more we discuss the Tao, the clearer it becomes. Only by constantly discussing the Tao can we make our Tao mind more firm and clear."
Xu Chunniang did not comment, picked a corner and sat down, as if she was not participating in the discussion.
Seeing this, the few people headed by Master Tunyue could not say any more and continued to talk about the previous topic.
As time went by, there were more and more monks in the venue.
There were monks wearing fiery red robes with a red bird totem on them, serving melons, fruits and wine one by one.
Xu Chunniang listened to these people talking about the three thousand avenues to heretical ways, and from Taoism to practice and enlightenment. She casually tasted the spiritual fruit on the plate and waited for the night to come.
It was getting late, and fireflies lit up all around, illuminating the Taoist temple as bright as day. After a whole day of discussing Taoism, these Jindan monks finally stopped.
A female cultivator in a scarlet dress stepped onto the venue with a smile on her face and bowed lightly to the monks from all directions.
"Dear Taoist friends, my name is Zhu Qiaoqiao, and I am the host of this Tao discussion meeting. After the day's Tao discussion, you must have gained a lot, right?"
"There is indeed a lot gained, but I heard before I was invited here that in addition to discussing Taoism, there is also a sermon given by True Lord Yuanying. However, there is no True Lord Yuanying present at the forum today."
"I heard that your Zhu family will hold an auction for the Golden elixir monks on the ancestral island. All the spiritual materials put up for auction are high-quality. I wonder when the auction will be held?"
"Fellow Taoists, please don't worry. This is just the first day of the Dao discussion meeting. The auction will be held tomorrow. As for the sermon of Lord Yuanying, it will be the day after tomorrow."
Zhu Qiaoqiao smiled slightly and continued.
"The Zhu family held this discussion meeting and invited monks from all over the world to come to our ancestral island of Yanzhou. In addition to the auction and the sermon of Lord Nascent Soul, they also carefully organized a small trade fair, and I will serve it for everyone.
Host."
As soon as Zhu Qiaoqiao finished speaking, many people immediately expressed their agreement.
"It's rare to have so many comrades gathered here today, and with the Zhu family as a guarantee, maybe we can really gain something today."
"Haha, I don't know if I have gained anything, but I have a few treasures at the bottom of the box that I have been reluctant to part with. If I encounter something that makes me excited today, I will give up these treasures to you."
Hearing that the small trade fair was about to start, Xu Chunniang, who was sitting in the corner with her eyes closed and concentrating, opened her eyes.
She came here to attend the Dao Forum because she wanted to inquire at this small trade fair to see if there was any news about Ximing and Kunlun.
There are hundreds of Jindan monks present, and they may be able to find what she wants.
While Xu Chunniang was thinking deeply, Zhu Qiaoqiao on the stage took out a jade box from the storage space and opened it gently.
A crystal clear, snow-white sea spirit bead about the size of a lychee appeared, exuding an astonishing aura.
"It's the Sea Lingzhu!"
Someone exclaimed, staring at the Sea Lingzhu with longing eyes. This Sea Lingzhu has almost no flaws, and the spiritual energy contained in it is probably no less than half of a top-grade spiritual stone.
"A sea spirit bead this big would cost 400,000 spirit stones at least."
"Sea Lingzhu is very rare. It is often difficult to find even one in the bodies of hundreds of golden elixir stage sea monsters. I heard that the sea clan will breed sea spirit pearls in their bodies, but I don't know if the rumors are true or not."
Satisfied that everyone was surprised when she took out the Sea Lingzhu, Zhu Qiaoqiao smiled lightly and lifted the restrictions on the jade box, allowing them to feel the majestic spiritual energy in the Sea Lingzhu more clearly.
"I want to use this sea spirit bead to exchange for a fire-attribute magic weapon, the grade is no less than middle grade."
The value of a sea spirit bead is no less than 400,000 yuan, and the value of a medium-grade magic weapon is between 200,000 and 800,000 yuan, which is closely related to the efficacy and material of the magic weapon.
As soon as Zhu Qiaoqiao finished speaking, someone immediately took out a fiery red long knife and activated it.
