My Senior Brother is Too Steady

Chapter 161 The Map of Mountains and Rivers

Are they really not here to fight? Li Changshou raised his head and looked at the huge dark clouds in the southeastern direction of the sky, as well as the white clouds in the north-west direction. He sensed the aura on them…

Seriously, he almost escaped!

Li Changshou had even thought of the headline for a non-existent tabloid of the Primordial World. “Tragic: A huge battle is about to break out during the Three Sects’ Meet. The mighty figures are attacking one after another. There is no guarantee that there will be no casualties!” The reason that Li Changshou stayed was because an immortal from Chan School flew out first…

He wore a pearl crown and a pair of embroidered boots. He was dressed in a white robe with auspicious clouds and immortal cranes embroidered on it. His wide sleeves fluttered in the wind, and there seemed to be an entire universe inside.

The disciples below could not see the Daoist’s face clearly. They could only vaguely sense that he was a middle-aged Daoist.

He flew out from the side where the sixty-odd immortals from the Jade Void Palace were standing at. He took a few steps forward and arrived at the center. He smiled at the immortals of Jie School and said in a clear voice, “Junior Brothers and Sisters of Jie School, why are you so aggressive? What are you doing?”

Is he really going to fight? Li Changshou sighed in his heart and secretly took out two special talismans…

Then, they heard a chuckle coming from the dark clouds of the immortals. “We’re naturally here to join in the fun. Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, how have you been recently?”

A woman in a colorful dress flew out of the cloud and bowed to Guang Chengzi.

The woman did not use any technique to conceal her appearance and aura. Her figure was slender, and her long hair was tied up into a slanted ponytail. Her face was naturally beautiful and gorgeous, but compared to her appearance, what made the Qi Refinement cultivators even more amazed were her cultivation, temperament, and Dao runes.

Guang Chengzi immediately smiled and said, “Thank you for your concern, Junior Sister Jin Ling. I’m a disciple of the Jade Void Palace. Greetings.”

With that said, Guang Chengzi bowed towards the southeast. The dozens of Immortals from Chan School who were behind him, the “leader of the twelve Golden Immortals”, followed suit and greeted them.

The “Junior Sister Jin Ling” on the other side was the Goddess Jin Ling who was one of the top four disciples of Jie School. At that moment, she imitated and said,

“On behalf of the disciples of Jie School, greetings, Second Uncle-Master.” At that moment, the thousands of immortals from Jie School… who probably amounted to two thousand, bowed in the direction of the Kunlun Mountain.

Many immortals from Jie School sighed in their hearts.

When it came to etiquette, the disciples of Jie School were far inferior to the senior disciple of Chan School.

Greeting the Saint through the air upon seeing the Saint’s disciples. That was something they could not think of.

Li Changshou, who was below, nodded secretly. He did not go there in vain today. The culture of Chan School was indeed very beneficial to his own Dao…

Li Changshou felt slightly relieved when he saw the people in the sky bowing to each other.

The Three Sects’ Meet should be a node where the Dao Sect would continue to prosper. Moreover, the conflict between the two factions, Chan School and Jie School, was not huge at the moment. The only difference was that there were conflicts in the ideologies of the sects.

Of course, the current situation between the two parties was not quite stable. If both sides could sing and dance together, that would prove that there was no enmity between them.

Standing on the cloud in the sky, Guang Chengzi said, “Today is a gathering for the Three Sects of the Middle Continent. Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters, are you all here?”

Goddess Jin Ling chuckled. Hundreds of flowers seemed to bloom in the sky. That trace of Dao runes seemed to be able to affect one’s mood. Many disciples below who had lower cultivation levels all revealed… silly smiles.

Goddess Jin Ling smiled and said, “Only less than thirty percent have arrived. Senior Brother Zhao has gone to invite our Eldest Senior Brother.”

“Oh?” Guang Chengzi smiled when he heard that. “I never expected Third Uncle-Master to take this matter so seriously.” At that moment, Goddess Jin Ling smiled awkwardly and did not explain further. She could not help but think about how she had been dragged out by Zhao Gongming in the Cave Abode…

Zhao Gongming was swearing something solemnly…

The disciples of the Saint of Ren School have a hundred percent chance of appearing. Even if our members from Jie School can’t achieve

ty-percent-attendance, we have to make sure that twenty to thirty percent of them show up!

Hence, that situation happened that day.

Guang Chengzi nodded slowly and did not ask further. He shifted his gaze downwards and said indifferently, “Those who took part in organizing this meeting today, come forward.”

As soon as he finished speaking, three men and two women flew into the air, followed by five old women. They were the Sect Leaders of the Golden Palace Sect, the Carefree Immortal Sect, and the other sects.

Hundreds of figures immediately flew out from behind the five of them. They were the Sect Leaders of the Immortal Sects of the Three Schools that were present today.

Those people bowed repeatedly in the air. As they had not practiced before, they appeared to be in a mess.

A while later, fairy-like figures flew over from all directions. Their dresses fluttered in the wind, and their slender fingers swayed gently. They scattered some powder and moist petals in the air.

The sound of drums and music rang out between the heavens and earth.

The disciples and members who were by the lake stood up and bowed to the sky. The scene was spectacular. Seeing that the lake below was too narrow, Goddess Jin ling said, “Senior Brother Guang Chengzi, why don’t we just stay on the clouds? Don’t scare those disciples.”

Guang Chengzi nodded. Thus, the two immortals from the two sects sat cross-legged on the clouds. The disciples from the various sects below hurriedly moved two floating Immortal Islands over and turned them into a platform in the sky. Only then did the immortals from both sides not have to hover in midair.

However, soon after, they encountered some trouble…

The Jade Void Palace, Golden Ao Island, Peng Lai Island, and so on were all considered the Saint’s Daoist venues. Regardless of their cultivation level, the Immortals from those places were the “Origin Immortals” of today. According to the original plan of the grand meet, the five sect leaders of the Immortal Sects that organized the meet had to each call out the experts of their respective sects. That was why they were going through all the formalities.

At that moment, there were no attendees from Ren School. The Sect Leader of the Carefree Immortal Sect was the most relaxed because he had no one to call. There were not many disciples in the Jade Void Palace of Chan School. More than sixty people had arrived. Most of them were experts who had been famous for a long time. For example, Guang Chengzi, Chi Jingzi, Yun Zhongzi, Perfected Yuding, Carefree Immortal, and so on, were names that had been announced. The two Sect Leaders of Chan School and the Immortal Sect were already familiar with each other and would naturally not mistake each other.

However, on the other hand… the group of immortals from Jie School could not recognize each other!

At that moment, the two Sect Leaders of Jie School and the Immortal Sect were sweating profusely…

Fortunately, the two sides had discussed and only reported the official disciple of the Saint. That was the reason for the awkwardness. At that moment, six of the twelve Golden Immortals of the Jade Void Palace had arrived. There were three other disciples of the Saint who were not part of the twelve Golden Immortals. The rest were in-name disciples.

On Jie School’s side, only three personal disciples of the Saint had arrived. There were another three who were on their way.

When the five Sect Leaders announced the names of all the big shots, the disciples of the Immortal Sects of the Three Schools in the basin kept bowing to the sky and performing Dao salutes.

Xiong Lingli asked softly, “Cousin, who are these immortals?”

“These seniors and experts are the disciples of the Saint. They have endless good fortune and are extremely powerful. They are the top experts in the world.” Li Changshou replied with a smile, but he reminded her not to speak casually. Xiong Lingli replied obediently. She had been whipped alive, so she did not dare to cause trouble for her cousin, the Sea God. Another half a day later, three immortals flew over from the sky. One of them had a round face and a round belly. His smile was amiable which would make others think that he had good intentions at first sight. He was the eldest inner-sect disciple of Jie School, Daoist Duobao.

The person on the left had a stern face, a burly figure, and a beard. He was the eldest disciple of Jie School, the newly-advanced Primordial “conman” Grandmaster, Zhao Gongming.

On the right was a young girl. Her face was hidden in the clouds. They only knew that she was one of the famous Three Firmaments, Fairy Qiong Xiao when they reported her name.

The immortals from both sides bowed to each other. The disciples below stood up and Dao saluted each other. The sky and earth instantly shone with immortal light, and it was extremely lively. It was indeed rare for the two factions to gather together.

The atmosphere of the meet had already reached a climax before it even started.

That was not the end.

When the two immortals from the two sects returned to the “observatory” on the two Immortal Islands, another chuckle sounded in the air.

A cloud flew over from the horizon. In the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the immortals. There seemed to be a figure inside, and a wisp of mysterious and peaceful Dao runes slowly spread out in the world. Li Changshou raised his eyebrows. He was very familiar with the Dao runes!

When he looked up, he saw a blurry figure jumping out of the clouds. Instead of saying that the figure was hiding the clouds, it was more like the clouds had condensed into a figure. Great Daoist Master, how many layers of blurry effects have you used…

In the air, Guang Chengzi was the first to stand up. He shouted, “Senior Brother Xuan Du is here too. It’s really rare for him to be here today! I’m a disciple of Chan School. I’ll pay my respects to you, Uncle-Master!” The people from Jie School also did not want to be outdone. Daoist Duobao shouted, “Greetings, Senior Brother Xuan Du. We are disciples of Jie School. Greetings, Uncle-Master.”

At that moment, the immortals of the three sects in the sky, and the immortals below all performed a Dao salute.

The moment he appeared, he became the center of attention… Ahem, the Great Daoist Master Xuan Du laughed heartily. He kept bowing in the air.

At that moment, the Great Daoist Master was even more determined about something.

It would be too awkward to have a junior brother deal with such an occasion alone. By the lake, the Six Immortal Sects of Ren School, which were originally weak, were all strangely excited.

Li Changshou’s tensed up heart finally relaxed.

The Great Daoist Master had also arrived. He would act according to the Great Daoist Master’s hints later. He would just hide in the crowd and be an ordinary disciple.

It was none other than… the three sects being at the peak of their power while both the Chan School and Jie School hid their intentions.

The Dao originated from the three sects of Kunlun, and the laws originated from the Purple Cloud Palace.

…

Three Immortal Islands floated in the sky. Hundreds of Immortal Sects of the Three Schools were gathered below. The Three Sects’ Meet would officially begin there.

However, because there were too many heavyweight experts from the three sects, the original plan was also disrupted.

The five Immortal Sects that were in charge of that matter were only running errands at the moment. Guang Chengzi, the leader of the twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, was the first to step forward. He sat on the cloud very naturally and began narrating about the origin of the three sects. This time, he really started from the beginning of the universe…

First, he said that after Pangu split Heaven and Earth, his essence soul turned into three friends.

Then, he told them about the three of them traveling together in the Primordial World. They communicated with the Connate lifeforms and had intimate contact with the Great Dao.

Then, he said that when he, Guang Chengzi, joined the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning, he had a whale of a time in a small courtyard of the Dao Sect’s Holy Land, the Kunlun Mountain.

After Guang Chengzi finished his speech, Daoist Duobao stood up. He was quite happy to talk about the scoldings from the Saint that he had suffered in the past.

He still remembered that they had run around innocently under the setting sun… That was the first segment of the Three Sects’ Meet that was naturally formed—the disciples of the Saint would reminisce about the good and bad times.

The second segment of the meet had been prepared beforehand. The Sect Leaders of the various Immortal Sects explained the origins and backgrounds of their Immortal Sects. For example, the Sect Leader of the Immortal Du Sect, Daoist Wuyou, said that his master was Perfected Dule whom he had followed for a long time back then. He also talked about why he had established a sect later on. Ren School had a total of six Dao factions, and they were soon finished with the story.

However, when the immortals of Jie School and Chan School began to talk about their own backgrounds and who their founder was… some of the three elderly immortals on the Immortal Island secretly pinched their fingers to deduce. Soon, they revealed a little realization. It turned out that a long time ago, they had even taught those Qi Refinement cultivators…

Li Changshou sat in an inconspicuous corner and looked up at the magnificent scenery in the clouds. He could not help but feel emotional.

It would be great if there were no tribulations in the future.

Of course, those were just idealistic words. Many things were fixed, and it was also a principle that humans could not change.

Everything in the world was at its peak. Everything had its principles. Heaven and earth did not allow living beings to be too strong. If one wanted to live forever, he would have to let nature…

Wait!

Li Changshou growled in his heart and forcefully cut off his own comprehension. He quietly absorbed the existing insights and suppressed them in his heart.

Just a little more and he would not be able to control his epiphany. Furthermore, that epiphany would definitely allow him to break through a small realm!

It was really too dangerous…

After Ling’e’s example, Li Changshou naturally had to be cautious.

Don’t think too much…

Li Changshou heaved a sigh of relief and continued to listen to the immortals of the Three Sects talk about the past.

If the conference was just like that, Li Changshou felt that it would be quite meaningful. The Immortal Sects of the Three Schools would be very stable for a long time.

However, just as Li Changshou had expected, the ‘match-up’ segment soon arrived in a method that he did not expect.

The elders of the three sects were all there. There were too many disciples below who had yet to become immortals. They could not compete one after another…

Therefore, Yun Zhongzi, the Golden Immortal of Chan School and the Primordial Refinement Grandmaster, who was known as the number one “counterfeit of the Primordial World” stood up with a flower basket.

The old immortal took out a Postnatal numinous treasure, a “Jiangshan Small Country” painting. There was a Minor Chiliocosm in the painting, and there were hundreds of “little treasures” that Yun Zhongzi had casually refined. Hundreds of immortals from Jie School flew away, grabbed a bunch of ferocious beasts, and placed them in the map.

The five Immortal Sects that took on the role of the organizers had also set the rules. All the younger disciples who were less than 200 years old today could enter. Those who performed well would receive handsome rewards…

Later on, as long as he stood up, he would be included in the painting.

Hence, the Sect Leaders and elders of the various immortal sects instructed their disciples. Half of the disciples stood up and were taken away by the beam that flew out of the painting. Li Changshou did not move at all. He sat there steadily.

He… would not embarrass the Immortal Du Sect.

However, at that moment, a certain immortal on the cloud smiled and flicked his finger seamlessly. Li Changshou had a hint of enlightenment in his heart which condensed into a single word.

“Go.”

Li Changshou frowned and felt a little apprehensive. However, he did not hesitate. He followed the “teachings of the Saint” and greeted the little bear beside him. The two of them stood up together. Great Daoist Master Xuan Du blinked while he was on the cloud. Only then did he notice that there was an iron tower beside Li Changshou. The Great Daoist Master’s expression was a little strange.

A golden beam of light flew over and pulled Li Changshou and Xiong Lingli into the painting. As for the Golden Immortal Yun Zhongzi of Chan School who was controlling the painting, he frowned slightly.

Why are these two disciples of Ren School So… heavy?
