Chapter Thirty-Two: Gathering Disciples Through Heaven

  Di Jiang wanted to visit San Qing and soon appeared at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. At this time, a young Taoist priest rushed over with a feather duster in his hand.

  "In front of us is Emperor Jiang's ancestral temple, our master has asked me to come and welcome you in." said the Taoist priest.

  The three clear shelves are getting bigger and bigger, at the first meeting they were still in awe of themselves, now they only called a small Taoist priest to greet them. Emperor Jiang thought to himself, while looking at the Taoist's cultivation, also in the late stage of Golden Immortal, should be a disciple under the Three Clears.

  "Lead the way." Emperor Jiang didn't say much more, he himself had come to ask Tongtian for guidance on array techniques and had a request to make of him, so he tried to be as polite and courteous as possible.

  The young Taoist priest, upon hearing this, did not dare to say more and immediately respectfully welcomed Emperor Jiang in. On the way, Emperor Jiang carefully observed Mount Kunlun, seeing that the flowers and grass had a spiritual aura, and cranes flew in unison, presenting a majestic scene of an immortal's abode. As they walked deeper, an ancient and simple palace appeared before them, its simplicity giving off an air of mystery.

  This should be the Jade Void Palace, Emperor Jiang thought to himself.

  At this time, the Three Pure Ones also walked out of the palace. The original one walking in the middle spoke first: "Emperor Jiang Zu Wu has come from afar, I don't know if my disciple has been rude in any way."

  The original speaker looked at the young Taoist priest on one side, saw that the young Taoist priest had an expression of neither humility nor arrogance, and his face was calm, and couldn't help but reveal a relieved smile.

  It seems that the original is very satisfied with this disciple. Emperor Jiang thought to himself and said, "The etiquette of the young master is complete and there is no place where he has been discourteous."

  The Original laughed even more after hearing this and said to the young Daoist on one side, "Guang Chengzi, Zu Wu has praised you, why don't you quickly come and pay your respects."

  Guang Chengzi met Emperor Jiang Zu Wu and thanked him for his praise. The young Daoist listened carefully and immediately came to pay respects to Emperor Jiang.

  It turned out to be Guang Chengzi, no wonder he was so fond of the original. He just said that his courtesy was thorough, but it was just a polite remark, and he really took it seriously. Now that he has shown himself courtesy, according to etiquette, he should give him some gifts for meeting, this time he lost.

  "It's our first meeting, so I'll give you this piece of congenital golden metal to refine into a treasure," said Emperor Jiang, taking out a large piece of congenital golden metal, which made Guang Chengzi's eyes shine brightly.

  Before Hong Jun distributed the treasures, most cultivators refined their own magic weapons. The piece of Xiantian Gengjin that Emperor Jiang took out was undoubtedly the best material for refining treasures.

  "Hurry up and thank your Master Uncle." Originally, Emperor Jiang was very generous to Emperor Jiang, and he couldn't help but become enthusiastic. He also didn't let Guang Chengzi call him Zu Wu, but instead called him Shifu directly. Then, he continued to say: "This disciple's heart is firm, his roots are not bad, I am very pleased."

  Listening to the last sentence, Emperor Jiang was somewhat bewildered. What's the point of saying this to me? Is he showing off his disciple? My Wu clan has a higher talent than him by no means a little.

  At this time, Guang Chengzi hurriedly expressed his gratitude. Emperor Jiang then had the opportunity to meet with Laozi and Tongtian. It was only seen that Tongtian's face was not happy, presumably because he felt that Yuanshi let his disciple show off too much.

  "What brings you here, Jiang Dao's friend?" Laozi asked.

  "There's nothing else, it's just that my recent cultivation has been difficult to make progress, and I want to discuss with the three Daoist friends to complement each other's shortcomings." Emperor Jiang replied, but was too embarrassed to say directly that he came for the insights on Tongtian's formation.

  "That's great, I was just thinking of lecturing Guang Chengzi on the Tao. Emperor Jiang, would you mind if he sat in and listened?" The original agreed to this first.

  "Senior brother, you're also too indulgent towards Guang Chengzi. He's a Golden Immortal, how can he understand our Mahayana Golden Immortal's doctrine?" Tianyun coldly snorted and said this by the side.

  Di Jiang watched from the side and couldn't help but be greatly surprised, how could Tong Tian be so disrespectful to the original, had the two of them already started having conflicts?

  Yuanshen also let out a cold snort, "Guang Chengzi's innate talent and wisdom are extremely good. When we discuss the Dao, comprehension is only a matter of a few words, it's not like you're inferior. Could it be that my junior brother saw me take in a good disciple and is jealous?"

  "I just can't stand seeing you taking on a disciple and showing off everywhere, losing face for the Three Purities."

  "Shut up, you two are both cultivators of the Dao, yet you're always quarreling and making a ruckus. What kind of dignity is this?" The old man on one side finally couldn't bear it anymore and spoke up, causing Primal Chaos and Tongtian to dare not speak again.

  Di Jiang was shocked to see that the two of them were not just occasionally quarreling, but often quarreling! It should be that Yuanshi thought he had taken in a good disciple and was showing off everywhere, which made Tongtian dissatisfied. However, Yuanshi was indeed too showy, and when he first arrived, he didn't even have the chance to talk to Laozi and Tongtian, but only heard him talking about his disciples.

  "Let Zu Wu see the joke." At this time, Tongtian first felt that something was wrong and saluted Emperor Jiang who was watching the play on the side.

  "Hmm, these three people's self-addressing terms are really strange. Laozi calls himself Daoyou, Yuanshi calls himself Shidi, and Tongtian calls himself Zuowu, I'm getting dizzy just listening to them."

  Emperor Jiang was about to return the gift when the Qian Kun Ding in his primordial spirit suddenly made a violent noise. Emperor Jiang was shocked and didn't know what happened inside the ding, nor did he care that San Qing was present, directly summoning the Qian Kun Ding out.

  The Ding of Qiankun hung in mid-air, emitting a buzzing sound, even the Three Pure Ones on the edge couldn't help but feel strange, and they sent out their divine consciousness to investigate the situation of the Ding of Qiankun.

  Only to see the sudden shaking of the universe tripod, throwing out four people, but it was San Xiao and Zhao Gongming who were forgotten by Emperor Jiang on one side.

  Tongtian saw the four of them and his eyes lit up, "Are these Emperor Jiang's disciples? Their cultivation has reached the peak of Golden Immortal, and their roots and qualifications are also extremely good. It makes me quite envious." In the end, Tongtian was still a bit jealous that he had originally taken in good disciples.

  On the other hand, Di Jiang's original face turned black. What does this mean? I just praised my own disciple for having excellent qualifications, and then he brings out four disciples whose qualifications are not inferior to Guang Chengzi. Isn't this a slap in his own face?

  Emperor Jiang didn't have time to bother with them now. After the Dry Heaven Tripod threw out Zhao Gongming and the other three, it still showed no signs of stopping, continuing to hum loudly. Seeing this, Emperor Jiang didn't care if there was any danger inside, directly sending his divine sense to investigate. All he saw inside the tripod were the aura of merit and a pile of pre-heavenly materials, except for two colorful eggs. These eggs were given to him by Phoenix Heaven back then to raise, but now it was time for them to hatch, causing the disturbance.

  Upon seeing this, Emperor Jiang couldn't help but calm down, it turned out that these two little guys were playing tricks, he thought that something unusual had happened to the Dry Heaven Tripod.

  Two colorful eggs are about to break out of their shells, and it's not good for them to stay in the Qiankun Ding anymore. Emperor Jiang waved his hand and summoned them out, and the two colorful eggs lay straight on Mount Kunlun, emitting a powerful aura.

  "This is a congenital demon!" The Three Purities were shocked, never expecting that there would be two living beings in the Emperor's Cauldron, and they were congenital demons with the same innate talent as them.

  "Three fellow Taoists, Emperor Jiang was rude. I didn't expect these two living beings to be born at this time and disturb everyone." Emperor Jiang saw that the Dry Heaven Tripod had returned to normal, and the two colorful eggs were fine, so he took the opportunity to explain to the Three Pure Ones.

  The original complexion had improved a lot after listening, but seeing Zhao Gongming and the four people standing beside him who didn't dare to speak, still felt very irritating.

  "Di Jiang Zu Wu, I don't know if these four people are your disciples." Besides Yuanshi, Zhao Gongming couldn't forget the other three, including Tongtian.

  Looking at Tongtian's anxious appearance, Emperor Jiang couldn't help but know what he was thinking. To say that Tongtian and the four of them indeed had a master-disciple relationship, should he fulfill it or not?

  "These four people are just those I happened to save, they are not my disciples." Emperor Jiang finally told the truth, everything depends on their fate.

  "So that's how it is." Tongtian's eyes lit up with a bright light after hearing the story. Meanwhile, Yuan Cheng's face finally fully recovered its color.

  "I see that they have excellent qualifications and a good foundation, I'd like to take them on as apprentices, but I don't know if Emperor Jiang Zu Wu would be willing to let them go." Tong Tian continued.

  "This... " Di Jiang was somewhat embarrassed, Zhao Gongming and the others were not his own people, how could he possibly decide whether to let them go or not.

  Tongtian saw Emperor Jiang and didn't speak, thinking that Emperor Jiang was reluctant in his heart. He continued to say: "If Emperor Jiang's ancestor yields, Tongtian will surely thank him heavily."

  "A gentleman does not take away what others love, why are you doing this, Master and Disciple?" The original words of the border suddenly interjected, but did not want to let Tongtian accept these four as apprentices, Guangchengzi's qualifications were a bit worse than theirs, who knows if Tongtian will be proud later.

  Di Jiang couldn't help but think of his insights into the formation upon hearing Tong Tian mention that there would be a heavy reward.

  "Tongtian Dao wants to accept these four as apprentices, I have no objection, but it's best if they agree."

  After hearing Di Jiang finish speaking, Tongtian was overjoyed and hastily looked at Zhao Gongming and San Xiao who were standing beside him with somewhat awkward expressions. He asked: "I am the primordial spirit of Pangu transformed, a clear daoist from Mount Kunlun, I wonder if you are willing to acknowledge me as your master."

  Zhao Gongming and the other three also had some insight, and they had already guessed their identities. Seeing Tongtian, such a great figure, willing to accept them as his disciples, they were overjoyed and hastily agreed.

  Di Jiang looked at them agreeing to acknowledge Tong Tian as their master, and couldn't help but feel a little melancholic. He slowly walked forward, facing the four of them and said: "You guys also have some fate with me, if you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come find me at the Wu tribe."

  The four of them were moved by Emperor Jiang's words, and Yun Xiao walked forward to bow to him, saying: "Thank you, Ancestor Wu, the four of us will remember this in our hearts."

  At this time, Tongtian walked over and said: "These four people can worship me as a teacher, it is also the promotion of Emperor Jiang Zu Wu. Tongtian's heart is grateful, I don't know what needs Emperor Jiang Daoyou has, as long as Tongtian can do it, he will definitely help Daoyou with all his might."

  "I've recently become interested in formations, I don't know if fellow Taoists have any research on this?" Emperor Jiang thought for a moment before speaking directly.

  Tongtian was taken aback, not expecting Emperor Jiang to really have a request, but he readily agreed. Tongtian took out a jade slip and handed it to Emperor Jiang, saying: "This is my understanding and experience of the formation method, consider it as repayment."

  Laozi saw Tongtian take out a jade tablet, with an expression of wanting to speak but hesitating, and in the end he still didn't stop him.

  Di Jiang received the jade tablet, saw Zhao Gongming and four others start to pay respects to Tongtian, and no longer paid attention to this side. His divine sense was released, locking onto those two constantly shaking colored eggs.

  These two guys have been in their own universe for so many years and are finally about to be born.
