Chapter Six: Houxue Fees and Disciples

  "Hehe, Third Brother, shall we give this disciple a welcome ceremony as well?" Lin Meng chuckled. The welcome ceremony Lin Meng referred to was the same one that Hong Meng and Lin Meng had said when Qin Yu first connected with the Hong Meng space: "Little friend, hurry up and cultivate, we're waiting for you." This phrase was still widely circulated in the Xian Mo Yao realm today.

  "No need for that, but Third Brother, I still hope you can help him when the time comes. After all, there are very few people who can connect to the Hongmeng space." Hongmeng gazed at Qin Yu, smiling slightly.

  "Big brother, I understand. No matter who it is, I won't stop him from becoming the fourth universe controller." Hongmeng's words made Qin Yu understand that in his heart, he really hoped Qin Shuang could become the fourth person on Hongmeng's golden list. But now, Qin Shuang still hasn't shown any signs of connecting with the Hongmeng space, so Qin Yu didn't force it either.

  A month later, Qin Shitian's black hole finally connected to the Hongmeng space. A seam immediately appeared in a place in the Hongmeng space, and countless Hongmeng spiritual energy poured into the cave.

  Zi Xuan Mansion, Qin Shi Tian finally opened his eyes and let out a long breath. The muddy space that Master Qin Yu had told him about finally appeared in the black hole of his dantian. Qin Shi Tian was extremely surprised and delighted in his heart. Qin Yu had once told him that this muddy space was a key to the Star Transformation Technique, and if he could produce it, it meant that Qin Shi Tian had hope of reaching Qin Yu's level.

  Qin Yu and his two elder brothers witnessed the rare sight of the Hongmeng Space, then returned to the new universe, where they encouraged Qin Shitian and taught him the Stellar Transformation's post-hand techniques before returning to Earth.

  "Big brother, you say Shi Tian that kid has also practiced the Void Space?" Hou Fei revealed his fiery red eyes. On Earth, when there were ordinary people around, Hou Fei's eyes were white with black pupils, just like those of a Chinese person.

  "Not bad, Shi Tian is still not bad." Qin Yu put on his suit again and said to Li Ti and others: "Last time I said I would take you to a place, but it was delayed due to the Hongmeng space. Now we're going."

  Dixian Star, after the Yinshang Fengshen War, Qin Shuang moved most of the remaining cultivators here, giving them a quiet environment for cultivation.

  The planet of the Earth Immortal has only one continent, which is divided into four parts: Dongsheng Shenzhou in the east, Nanqianbuzhou in the south, Xiniuhezhou in the west, and Beijuluzhou in the north. The western part is mainly inhabited by Buddhist disciples who practice the Buddha's true method of cultivation left behind by ancient civilizations on Earth. The planet of the Earth Immortal is called the Earth Immortal Realm by the cultivators here.

  Dongsheng Shen Zhou is a part of ancient China that was relocated to Earth, where ordinary people continue to live. It is currently under the Tang Empire. Five people suddenly appeared in the capital city of Chang'an, and their strange clothing immediately attracted the attention of many onlookers.

  "Big brother, can I change into this bird's casual attire?" Hou Fei saw that the mortals here dressed similarly to Zixuan Star and had long since grown tired of wearing Earthly casual clothes. Without waiting for Qin Yu's response, he changed back into his usual red robes.

  "Brother Ya, where is this place?" Jiang Li's eyes blinked with confusion as he asked.

  "This place is called the Dixian Realm, it's like another Earth, an Earth without technology. Most of the cultivators on Earth are here." Qin Yu smiled wryly and changed back into his original black robes, he had indeed been careless about the clothes.

  "This is the Immortal Realm where cultivators ascend to on Earth, but it doesn't seem like it. They should have ascended to the Realm of Spirits and Demons, this is still the Mortal Realm?" Zixia had read quite a few books about the Earth and had some understanding of the Immortal Realm.

  "The cultivators of the Earth have only appeared for a few thousand years, how can there be so many flying ascensions? They will come here to cultivate when they reach the Yuan Ying period. The cultivation environment here is better than on Earth." Qin Yu led the four people into the Jiajiu Building, explaining to Zixia as they walked.

  "Feather Brother, why have we come here?" The five of them found a table and sat down, with Jiang Li asking first.

  "There are many Daoist traditions here that were passed down by Xiao Feng. Let's take a look and see if we can gain anything."

  "What's going on with Xiaofeng's disciples? How can they all be so weak? Xiaofeng didn't teach them well." Hou Fei heard that the cultivators here were Xiaofeng's disciples and immediately perked up, but after carefully observing the cultivators on this planet, he felt a bit disappointed. Even the strongest cultivators among them were only at the level of scattered immortals in their first tribulation, not even reaching the Mahayana stage.

  "The earth and this place are both lacking in yuanling stones, it's not bad that they've developed to this point after thousands of years. As for you teaching your disciples, I'm afraid you're not even as good as Xiaofeng!" Jiang Li ordered the dishes, smiling at Hou Fei, maternal love is great, even if it's Hou Fei, Jiang Li didn't want him to say anything bad about his son.

  "I didn't find a good apprentice." Hou Fei's voice became smaller after being criticized, teaching apprentices was indeed not his forte.

  The cultivators of the Immortal Realm live on a group of aerial islands called the Thirty-Three Heavens, which were also created by Qin Shuang to separate the cultivators from ordinary people. The cultivators who arrived at the Immortal Realm's sects no longer belonged to their original earthly sects and mostly fell under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court of the Thirty-Three Heavens. However, several disciples collected by Qin Shuang when he was disguised as Hong Jun were not under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court.

  Yuanshi Tianzun, Tongtian Jiaozhu, and Taishang Laojun, the three ancestors of the Xian Tian sect of Taoism, were exactly the three disciples collected by Qin Shuang. The three are now all scattered immortals, belonging to the existence above the heavenly court.

  "Fei Fei, there's someone here who can become your apprentice. I don't know if you're willing to teach them." One of the reasons Qin Yu came here was to find a suitable master for Hui Fei, and it just so happened that there was a high-level divine beast with a good affinity with Hui Fei, making it a great opportunity for him to become an apprentice.

  "I'm very strict in choosing my apprentice, so Big Brother doesn't need to worry about me." Hou Fei heard that Qin Yu was going to find an apprentice for him and quickly lowered his head to eat his food, secretly thinking: "Teaching an apprentice? I don't have the leisure time for that, Your Excellency."

  "Haha, Feifei don't rush to refuse, let's talk after we meet."

  Dongsheng Shenzhou Huaguo Mountain, the beautiful Monkey King Qitian Dasheng Sun Wukong, over a thousand years ago, escorted Tang Monk to retrieve scriptures and was rewarded by the Buddha as Douzhan Shengfo. However, Sun Wukong was not accustomed to the atmosphere of the Buddhist world and returned to Huaguo Mountain to become his own mountain king.

  Sun Wukong's true form is a spiritual stone monkey, a superior divine beast born from a stone, who cultivated to the early stage of emptiness in just two thousand years. In the realm of earthly immortals, this was considered extremely fast. Since reaching the Golden Elixir period and gaining inherited memories, Sun Wukong knew that he did not have no parents, but only didn't know where his parents were.

  After finishing their meal, Qin Yu directly brought the four of them to Mount Huaguo in an instant. The scenery of the Dixian realm was much more beautiful than that of Earth, and Mount Huaguo was no exception compared to the Zixuan star. Zi Xia and Hong Yun looked at the monkeys all over the mountain with surprise and delight.

  "Little yellow fish, big brother has brought you to find an apprentice, hehe..." Hongyun covered her mouth and giggled, by now, who didn't know Qin Yu's intention.

  "Big brother......" Hou Fei's face was bitter as he looked at Qin Yu, once Qin Yu made a decision, no one could change it. It seemed that today he would really have to follow this little monkey.

  "Don't be in a hurry, you take a look and decide whether or not to accept this disciple." Qin Yu smiled and walked ahead onto the Mountain of Flowers and Fruits.

  "I'd rather die than take this disciple." Hou Fei muttered as he was dragged up Mount Huaguo by Zi Xia.

  "Your Majesty, we have a visitor!"

  Sun Wukong sat on a stone chair eating grapes, swallowing one bunch at a time. He mumbled unclearly: "Who is it? Not seen, not seen, this king has no free time today."

  Hou Fei hadn't even reached the mountain when he heard Sun Wukong's words, his temper flared up and he suddenly appeared in front of Sun Wukong, punching him with a fist, directly sending Sun Wukong flying far away.

  "You ungrateful little brat, I haven't even agreed to take you on as a disciple yet, and you're already putting on airs in front of me."

  Jiang Li, Zi Xia, and Hong Yun, the three girls covered their mouths and couldn't stop laughing. Hou Fei had just said he didn't want to, but now he's starting to put on airs as a master.

  Sun Wukong was dazed by the punch, but he quickly recovered and pulled out his golden staff, charging at Hou Fei in anger. Just as the staff hit Hou Fei's head, Sun Wukong felt a powerful backlash that numbed his tiger mouth, and he stared at Hou Fei in shock. However, Hou Fei's expression didn't change at all, still glaring at him angrily.

  "Sun Wukong, do not be rude, he is your future master." Qin Yu pointed a finger, and Sun Wukong's entire body was unable to move, staring at the few people who suddenly appeared in terror. Unlike other cultivators, Sun Wukong understood through inherited memories that only immortals and scattered immortals above the fourth tribulation could teleport, and there were no such masters in the Earthly Immortal Realm.

  "Who are you? What do you want from me, old Sun?" Sun Wukong wasn't stupid, the few people in front of him weren't anyone he could resist, so he stopped struggling.

  "You didn't hear my brother say just now, we came to give you a gift from our master." Hongyun smiled and said to Sun Wukong, who was indeed the best candidate for Hou Fai's disciples along with Hou Fai's son.

  "Old Sun, I've got a master now, no need, thank you all, you can leave."

  Hou Fei's eyes flashed with a red glow, and his body suddenly emitted an aura of majesty, which made Sun Wukong break out in cold sweat. He furiously shouted: "Ah ah, there is actually someone who does not want to be Hou Ye's apprentice! Do you know how many people want to become my apprentices? I, Hou Ye, will say it once, the entire divine realm... (pausing abruptly) ...will have countless people coming to pay homage."

  "That's someone else, I'm Old Sun and I don't care, let me go quickly."

  "Alright, you little rascal, Lord Hou is going to take you on as his disciple today. Who's your master? I'll beat him to a pulp with one stick." Lord Hou restrained his imposing aura and gnashed his teeth in anger at Sun Wukong.

  Sun Wukong had never felt so powerless as he did today. Even when he was causing chaos in the heavenly palace and facing the Buddha, he didn't feel intimidated. But today, facing a few people, especially Hou Fei, he felt a sense of fear in his heart. Sun Wukong didn't know that, as a divine monkey, it was his instinct to have an innate fear of the divine beast aura on Hou Fei's body, who was also a super divine beast.

  "Hurry up and tell Master Hou, who is your master? Let's see if he's more powerful or I am. You're really asking for it, you ignorant little brat." Master Hou was furious and jumping around wildly, but fortunately, he still had some restraint. If he were to truly unleash his anger, the entire Star Palace would be reduced to dust with just one strike of his staff.

  "Sun Wukong, do you want to know who your parents are? If you do, then kowtow to him as your master, and you will definitely meet your parents later." Qin Yu smiled and transmitted the sound to Sun Wukong.

  "Is that true?" Sun Wukong exclaimed, not knowing his parents, which had always been the greatest regret in Sun Wukong's heart. He stared at Hou Fei for half a day before suddenly saying: "I want to go and inform my master first, then decide whether or not to take you as my master."
