Chapter 355 Jade Palace, Where Celestials Stay (1/2)

”I was only joking, all of you do not need to take it seriously,” Shen Lian said.

The elders all let off a sigh of relief while feeling sorry. Perhaps it was a good thing to return it to the cauldron and re-forge it.

However, how could they bring this little thought up with the Headmaster?

Shen Lian took the Xuanguang Ruler back. The instruments naturally were returned to the elders, he then led them to walk around Taiyi Peak as they conversed.

Even the worst of cultivation experience for these people were the people amidst Huandan. In the eyes of the ordinary mortal, they were considered as land immortals, Dixian. Even though Taiyi Peak was perilous, they could conjure cumulus clouds beneath their feet. They were happy and contented. Their Qi of Dao was peaceful, it encircled them like the mist and cloud during twilight.

During this moment, someone spoke, ”Headmaster has already attained Dao and longevity and is considered one of the deities. We should build a deity sanctuary for you, perhaps a Jade Palace.”

The one who spoke was Jia Yili's master, Daoist Yu.

He was the one who survived the Yanxu's catastrophe from back then. He had Shenxiao True Technique to vanquish the bad and evil. If he did not have Shenxiao True Technique, he would have been cultivated as one of Yanxu's incarnation.

It was not like the doing of his to propose building a deity sanctuary. However, Jia Yili's thunder technique showed improvements after he came back from the sea. Unfortunately, he was stunned by Zhao Siming's thunderous sword aura and his drive was demoralized.

In Elder Yu's eyes, this blood kin and apprentice of his may seem undisciplined but he still had haughtiness in him. Even until now, he was still in solitary retreat. Day and night, he cultivated his thunder techniques. There was a saying, 'Woking beyond the limit is as bad as falling short'. Chances were, with his state, he was unable to show Jia Yili on how to get onto the right path, and he would need to trouble the Headmaster by then.

Even though it was said that the Headmaster sees the group of disciples as equal. 'The heavenly heart is unselfish, but the human heart is selfish'. Not even the deities were exceptions. He thought that by doing Shen Lian a favor, there would be a chance that the favor could be a return to his disciple. He truly put a lot of his time, effort, and energy into nurturing this disciple of his.

Of course, the merit of this proposal might be insufficient enough. Daoist Yu had other plans.

Hong Qianya nodded as he agreed, ”The storm rooms and Jade Palaces, are indeed where celestials live. Senior Apprentice-Brother Yu does have a point.”

Within Qing Xuan, there were a total of forty-one immortal Zhenrens that appeared, including Shen Lian. There were a total of eleven Jade Palaces and thirty stone rooms, all of which were the immortal Zhenrens' Daoist court.

There actually was not much difference between the Jade Palaces and stone rooms, it really depended on each person's temperament.

Like Shen Lian's grandmaster, Fairy Ziling dug a stone room within Zifu Peak. One must not look down on this stone room because once it was completed, it became the connecting point for the Dao rhythm of the Zifu Peak. It aggregated the Qi vigor, cast the Dao restriction which was enough to block both the inside and outside.

These types of abodes were not the primary features to reflect the status of the immortal Zhenrens. The primary feature was still the function of it. Because once one entered the state of immortality, every move they make could bring a huge impact to their surroundings. If the immortal Zhenren lost control while cultivating, there was a possibility to cause a disaster. It would have an impact on other pupils of the sect and would also damage the geographical structures of Qing Xuan.

If they were within their Jade Palaces or stone rooms, that would not be a concern.

Ge Yuan said, ”Then a piece of the king of jades is needed if a deity sanctuary is to be built. I am afraid that would not be easy to find.

The stone room was cut following the shape mountain, one only needed to choose a good position. There were quite some problems, however, for the Jade Palace. This was because to get a jade stone as big as a Daoist courtyard, they would need an entire vein of the king's jade from a jade mine.

After countless years of excavating, it was not easy to find this kind of king of jades in this world.

The group of them then said, ”Considering Qing Xuan's material resources, we can definitely search for a top grade king of jades. Zhenren Ge, do not worry.”

Before this, no one mentioned this because of the death of the old Daoist. The day when Shen Lian attained Dao and longevity was also the day the old Daoist entered Daoism. Even though the people in Qing Xuan was unconventional, but there was still sorrow within their hearts, which was why no one suggested it.

Now, after many years have passed, Shen Lian was forging treasure items for the sect. Ever since he took on the position of Headmaster, even though he was not as conscientious as Zhang Ruoxu, but his immense talent and temperament topped Qing Xuan's previous headmasters.

They were also part of the Zhongxing Sect, and everyone knew about the Headmaster's elegance. Even though there were other courtyards in the back of the mountain, it was not enough to represent the respect the Headmaster deserved as an immortal Zhenren and his lofty morality.
