Chapter 177: They've Arrived!
Shuilan Star, Emei Golden Summit.
Three days ago, when the golden lotus flower in the deep pool in the back mountain began to bloom, the mountain was already closed off, rejecting visitors.
Now, those who can still appear on the Golden Summit and visit the sunrise scenery are either true practitioners who have been cultivating their lives in the surrounding Taoist temples, or they are prestigious and well-connected experts from various factions who have applied to come here in advance, along with their disciples.
Because of Qingmu Temple's old cultivation, these truly dedicated practitioners who have been practicing for decades are respected by all parties and given special treatment.
After all, based on the extensive investigations and understanding of Qingmu Temple, it is clear that before encountering the immortal fate, the old practitioner there didn't possess any supernatural powers. But after encountering the immortal fate, he surpassed his disciples and entered an unimaginable realm in the eyes of experts.
Who knows if these high-ranking experts in front of us will also have their own opportunities one day and step into the threshold of transcendence?
"The golden lotus has really bloomed?"
"Of course it has. I heard it from my seventh aunt's third nephew!"
"It is said that when the flowers bloomed, a fragrant scent filled the entire mountaintop!"
"Some people immediately used machines to collect the immortal qi! There are already people in the market willing to buy it at a high price!"
"Do you believe such news?"
On the Golden Summit, as they watched the sun slowly rise and disappear into the clouds, dyeing the clouds with a magnificent golden light, two rarely seen old practitioners began exchanging information.
However, as these rumors spread through their conversation, they became more and more distorted.
The investigators behind them could only twitch their mouths.
It can only be said that these old practitioners are also human beings. Human nature is such that they always like to exaggerate.
And slowly, they turned a simple matter into something extraordinary.
This was intentional control from above.
Otherwise, rumors about the fragrance of the golden lotus flowers in the deep pool in the back mountain being able to cure all diseases might have emerged, causing countless people to besiege Qingmu Temple in the back mountain!
Indeed, the golden lotus flowers in the deep pool in the back mountain have bloomed.
One bloomed three days ago, and they have been blooming continuously these past two days.
There is indeed a fragrant scent permeating the area near the deep pool.
Not only did Qingmu Temple's disciples smell it, but many experts also went to the scene after obtaining the permission of the old temple master and smelled it.
However, after examining most people, they found that this fragrance, like the scent of flowers, only brought pleasure to the body and mind without any other special effects.
The few who claimed that their bodies felt much better after smelling the fragrance ultimately only deceived themselves.
Suddenly, another group of people arrived at the mountaintop, and when the old practitioners saw their attire, they became excited.
The arrivals were disciples of Qingmu Temple.
Seeing these seniors who had higher status and positions than them, they instinctively felt a bit shy.
Fortunately, they thought of the old master who was already like a celestial being.
They regained their courage and, after bowing, whispered to the old practitioners who were heading towards the deep pool in the back mountain:
"The master has given an order."
"The Golden Lotus flower is about to mature."
"This is a great joy, and everyone should rejoice."
"The Taoists can choose one or two companions to accompany us to the back mountain."
The disciple of Qingmu Temple paused and noticed that several disciples brought more senior practitioners with them, and their faces showed some urgency.
He took a deep breath and added a crucial sentence:
"The master said, this is also what that person meant."
That person?
The disciple's voice was not loud.
As soon as these words were spoken, the practitioners from various sects on the Golden Summit suddenly quieted down.
They came from their hometowns to this place, how could they not know who that person referred to?
Sure enough!
When the Golden Lotus flower bloomed and matured, the true immortal master would also appear!
This was a genuine immortal fate!
Suddenly, the people on the Golden Summit showed courtesy and politeness.
It seemed that they felt the immortal master might be watching them from the golden clouds above the summit!
"Master, you know me, I have always been the fastest learner!"
"If there really are Spiritual Roots, Talent, etc., I think my chances are greater!"
"Master! Your disciple has been busy for the sect for decades, without a moment of leisure..."
The disciples whispered softly to the old practitioners.
Fortunately, they all considered the presence of the immortal master and only debated based on reason, without resorting to force.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the disciples of Qingmu Temple also selected a delegation.
Therefore, more than fifty sects that were qualified to come, about a hundred people, followed the disciples of Qingmu Temple to the back mountain.
In the hotel halfway up the mountain, the rooms had already been transformed into intelligence rooms.
Several investigators looked at the aerial footage with amazement.
In the footage.
All the golden Lotus flowers in the deep pool of the back mountain were in full bloom.
The petals were large, much larger than ordinary Lotus flowers.
And they were also quite thick, leading experts to suspect that there might be another layer of crops inside the petals.
However, they hesitated because this was someone else's property.
Moreover, the methods of the immortal master were truly unimaginable.
The experts resisted the temptation to send someone to cut open the petals and take a look.
As the crowd from the Golden Summit arrived at the deep pool, they paid their respects to the old master sitting on a large stone by the pool.
The investigators suddenly stood up and exclaimed in unison:
"Here they come!"
The old master nodded slightly and, after exchanging glances with a few old friends, also stood up with a sense of anticipation.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, a light breeze blew through the sky.
Although the sun was still shining, a drizzle began to fall.
The rain was icy cold, but when it touched the skin, it felt surprisingly comfortable.
"This is the divine rain bestowed by immortals!"
An old practitioner exclaimed, tilting his head back to let the raindrops fall into his eyes.
In just a few seconds, this old practitioner became so excited that tears streamed down his face.
He exclaimed that he could see again, that he could see clearly...
This left the investigators behind him bewildered.
They quickly pulled up the file of this old practitioner and discovered that his eyes were indeed problematic, with a serious vision impairment that couldn't be repaired due to a problem at the back of his eyes.
These investigators also became curious about this rain.
They were relieved to see that the on-site personnel immediately commanded a drone to collect the rainwater and hand it over to experts for analysis.
Su Ping flew in the air, drinking wine and watching the drone operation, but he didn't stop it.
Because he knew that this was just rainwater that had absorbed spiritual energy after being stimulated by his formation.
The spiritual energy in this kind of rainwater disappeared very quickly.
Once it left the vicinity of the deep pool, it probably became no different from ordinary rainwater halfway through.
It was destined to be disappointing if they wanted to study something from it.
As for the old practitioner whose vision had recovered, the spiritual energy had nourished him, allowing his instinct honed through years of cultivation to slightly repair the problem at the back of his eyes.
It was false to say that his vision had fully recovered, but there was a slight possibility of partial recovery.
On the other hand, this batch of Golden Lotus Spirit Rice...
Their growth seemed very promising.
Although they didn't have to worry about diseases and pests.
But it was inevitable to take care of them day and night and regulate the humidity and heat.
It could be considered as a coolie job.
With the Golden Lotus Spirit Rice bathed in the divine rain and stimulated by it, they matured completely!
Golden light emerged around the deep pool.
Under the golden light, everyone saw that the petals of those golden lotus flowers were peeling off their outer layer one after another.
Then, they revealed the crystal-clear lotus seeds inside, shining like pearls!
The fragrance became even more intense.
It truly shocked everyone present.
Subconsciously, they all realized that these pearl-like spirit rice were exactly what their bodies craved!
The old cultivators and their disciples around them couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and their bodies instinctively moved closer to the deep pool of water.
But they saw the old master standing on the stone platform, and with a flick of his sleeves, a gust of wind surged out, blowing the advancing cultivators back several steps.
This shocked them with the transcendence of the old master, and they quickly realized their own loss of composure, hastily thanking the old master.
The old master turned his head and looked at the sky, cupping his hands in salute.
"Greetings, Immortal Master!"
Seeing the old master bow like this, everyone raised their heads and looked in the direction he was saluting.
At first, it seemed like there was nothing there.
After a while, they noticed a vague fluctuation in the air ahead.
Soon, a figure sitting on a red calabash, obscured by white light, appeared.
After this immortal slowly descended from a high altitude, he leaped down from the calabash mountain and with a wave of his sleeves, he stored the calabash, which was at least the size of a fishing boat, in his sleeves.
Then they saw this immortal gently touch the deep pool of water with his right hand.
The spirit rice in the golden lotus flower immediately detached from the lotus flower and all entered his sleeves.
The old cultivators who witnessed this scene were all envious.
The golden lotus flower withered quickly without the spirit rice.
Su Ping didn't waste any time and instructed the old master to collect these withered golden lotus flowers.
Then he informed him of several pill recipes he had figured out after studying a large number of pill recipes and other methods.
He planned to let the old master refine them when he had time, which would help speed up his research progress.
In addition, he swept his gaze over the old cultivators and their disciples.
After a hearty laugh, facing these mortals, he unfolded a formation, and with a roll of it, including the old master, the hundred or so mortals were temporarily enveloped in the illusion created by the formation.
From the outside, all that could be seen was a golden light enveloping the deep pool of water, making it impossible to see what was inside.
After obtaining permission from above, a drone flew towards the golden light.
But it strangely passed through directly.
It seemed that the area covered by the golden light had formed a unique space.
No external objects could touch it anymore!
This made many people think of the spatial rift in the waters of the Stick Nation.
That was a space ability that not even a nuclear explosion could affect!
The immortals on their side seemed to have mastered this kind of spatial ability too!
Although it seemed a bit unbelievable, it was also reasonable to think about it.
After all, the last time the spatial rift was resolved, it was done by the mysterious forces of their ancient Eastern country.
It was logical that the mysterious forces capable of resolving the spatial rift would also possess the same spatial ability, right?
The best way to deal with spatial power should be with the same spatial power, shouldn't it?
