The Infinite Uchiha.

Chapter 157 The Five Colors of Destiny
In the distance, above the auspicious clouds.

A middle-aged Taoist who looked to be about forty years old came into Fang Xiu's sight. He had a square face and looked like an immortal. Under his crotch was a black tiger, which was equally majestic.

When the Taoist saw him stop flying and look straight over here, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face, and he shouted loudly: "Daoyou, please stay! Daoyou, please stay! Wait for me!"

As he spoke, he came hurriedly riding on the clouds.

Fellow?

Please stay!
After a moment of shock, Fang Xiu immediately realized who he had met.

One of the destined people in the Fengshen worldview!

Shen Gongbao!
This guy was originally a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun of the Orthodox Sect. Because he used the beheading technique to trick Jiang Ziya into handing over the List of Gods to him, and then violated the rules of the Yuxu Palace, he was expelled from the saint. So he simply changed his appearance and became a disciple of the Jie Sect. Later, he entered the world and became an important official of the Shang Dynasty, just to continue his love-hate relationship with Jiang Ziya.

Looking at the entire Conferred Gods Battle, it can be said that it was these two who held up the plot:
One is responsible for tricking the Jiejiao masters to come down the mountain, and the other is responsible for finding a way to kill them and put them on the List of Gods!
As for the familiar phrase "Daoyou, please stay", it is Shen Gongbao's ultimate weapon and catchphrase of the law of cause and effect. I think only the phrase "This thing/Daoyou has a connection with my Western religion" by the Taoist Zhunti can be compared with it.

Everyone who heard this, from Zhao Gongming and the Three Goddesses, the top second-generation disciples of Jiejiao, to ordinary third-generation disciples, could not escape.

"..." Fang Xiu.

Looking at Shen Gongbao, who was flying towards him rapidly while shouting "Fellow Daoist, please stay", he had a bad feeling, similar to stepping on a pill when going out.

However, Shen Gongbao had no idea that he was being regarded as a jinx. He had finally set foot on the mortal world, but he had not seen many people along the way. He had finally met a woodcutter and a hunter, but they were all uninformed and knew nothing when asked.

Because of this, he would not let Fang Xiu go when he saw him from afar. He bowed his head and saluted, then pulled the tiger skin and said:

"I am Shen Gongbao, a disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun of Yuxu Palace. Nice to meet you, fellow Taoist!"

"..."

Seeing that Fang Xiu ignored him, Shen Gongbao, who had been expelled from Yuxu Palace, was not annoyed. He lowered his posture, smiled playfully, and said to himself:
"I just called you abruptly, but I have something to ask you!"

"I was invited by my good friend Wen Zhong to go to Chaoge to keep an appointment. I had not set foot on the earth for a hundred years. The world has changed so much that I lost my way for a while. May I ask, fellow Taoist, do you know where Chaoge is?"

Wen Zhong.

The dissatisfaction in his heart was temporarily suppressed. Fang Xiu was slightly stunned, thinking of the old friend who had enthusiastically invited him, and casually threw out a map.

Then, he opened Yomi Hirasaka and disappeared from Shen Gongbao's sight, as if he was hiding from the god of plague.

"..."

Shen Gongbao felt puzzled, and couldn't figure out how he had offended this strange Taoist friend, but he still followed his own principles, bowed to the air, and said loudly:

"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. Don't look down on my low level of cultivation, but all the Daoists I'm friends with are well-known masters in the Three Realms. If you run into any trouble in the future, you can come to me! I will definitely not let you go empty-handed!"

"I am Shen Gongbao!!!"

——As the second generation disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun, it would be strange if he was not expelled from the sect because he has close contacts with Jiejiao, but his personality is not likable.

——What's more, its true form is a patterned black panther. The Chan sect is very particular about origin, and they often describe people who are covered in fur and armor and are born from eggs.

"The man of destiny, Shen Gongbao, has entered Chaoge. The great calamity is getting closer and closer."

The sense of urgency in my heart increased a little.

The content recorded in the original work is really too brief. It can only be used as a reference in the general sense, but Fang Xiu needs to supplement the details himself.

Xiao and Cao successfully helped him find out the background of the bystanders, and now he will have some high-end combat power.

In the world of the universe, even saints are divided into high and low levels.

Isn’t there a saying called the Nuclear Saint?

As for his first impression of Shen Gongbao, Fang Xiu felt that judging from his appearance, bearing, conversation, and principles, he was indeed quite good, at least not as terrible as portrayed in movies and TV dramas.

Come to think of it, if this guy was particularly despicable, Yuanshi Tianzun, who valued background, would not have accepted him in the first place. There was no need for the group of immortals from Jiejiao to be on good terms with him - even though they had received admonitions from the saints, they still couldn't help but come out to help.

As his thoughts turned, he had already come from a deserted place to the front of a giant city, which was a hundred feet high, no less than a small mountain. On the city gate were engraved ancient characters: Sanshan Pass.

Without any hesitation, Fang Xiu walked towards the direction of the Sanshan Pass General's Mansion...

"Stop! Who are you?"

"This is the headquarters of the Sanshan Pass General. No outsiders are allowed to approach!"

Normally, Fang Xiu could have just used an illusion to get rid of the bloodthirsty guards in front of him, just like Uchiha Itachi did when he entered the Konoha Village, but... the Eastern worldview emphasizes human relationships and worldly wisdom.

I'm not here to be a bad guest.

"This general is very polite!" Fang Xiu stepped forward and said politely, "I am a Qigong practitioner from overseas. I am acquainted with Grand Master Wen Zhong, and I have come to visit General Kong Xuan!"

"Qigong practitioner?"

The guard leader, who was dressed in armor and looked of high rank, carefully looked Fang Xiu up and down. Seeing that he had an extraordinary appearance, his expression gradually eased and he took the initiative to bow and said:

"Master, please wait for a moment. I will go and report to my master!"

After saying that, he rushed into the general's mansion.

When facing one of the strongest men in the Three Realms, one naturally needs to be more patient. There will definitely be no harm in making friends with him.

——After coming to this world and seizing an opportunity and receiving the Fallen Treasure Money, Fang Xiu practiced diligently for ten years. Now he holds the Heaven-Swallowing Demon Pot in his hand. According to his previous experience, his strength is already enough to influence the overall situation.

——It just lacks an affirmation.

Just as he was thinking, Fang Xiu saw the guard appear in front of him as if he had used the teleportation technique, and he bowed again and said, "Please follow me! The general invites you!"

The whole process took less than a few breaths. Apparently Kong Xuan had already noticed this scene and just followed the ordinary process, letting the guard act as a mouthpiece.

Following this person, we crossed the front yard, turned through several corridors, and came to a quiet place.

"This is the study of my general. Please go in, Taoist priest! I still need to guard the gate!"

study?

Would the innate gods and demons also be interested in what mortals wrote?

As expected, when he came to the mortal world to be an official, he was really dedicated and loved what he did.

Out of curiosity, Fang Xiu stepped steadily into it. There was nothing mysterious about it. It did not take up a large area and was not luxurious. There was nothing else except a table, a few wooden chairs, a bookshelf and various bamboo slips.

In the middle, a handsome man in a black battle robe was sitting and reading a book. He looked to be about twenty years old, with a face as sharp as a knife, but a pair of slender eyes gave him a touch of gentleness. Sitting there quietly reading, he did look quite elegant.

Is this the Kong Xuan in the world of Fengshen?

He is not as domineering as Kunpeng, who slaughtered the world of Qiannu and wiped out the gods and Buddhas.

Just as Fang Xiu was about to speak, he suddenly heard the number one person under the Saint mumbling to himself, like a primary school student stuck on a math problem:

"The Dongyi are in rebellion. How long will it take to gather troops from Chaoge to suppress them?"

"Our vanguard of 30,000 soldiers encounters an enemy force of 300,000 soldiers. The enemy has the advantage of terrain and launches a surprise attack. How should we respond?"

Ignoring Fang Xiu standing next to him, at this moment, General Kong frowned and lowered his head to examine the question again. Finally, he couldn't help it anymore and threw the bamboo slips out like trash, saying dissatisfiedly:

"Bullshit! How would I know how far these soldiers can travel in a day? They can reach that distance in a short time by flapping their wings!" "Ask me how to defeat the enemy? No matter if you have 300,000 or 3 million, they are just ants. We can just swallow them up in one gulp!"

"Why send troops?"

"Humph, that kid from Chaoge, send someone to Sanshan Pass to tell them, I am enough."

The bamboo tube fell to the ground, the rope broke free, and bamboo pieces were scattered all over the ground. Along with it, the image of Kong Xuan in Fang Xiu's imagination also broke apart.

His first encounter with gods and demons from the higher world was when he saw related images in a previous trial.

——The impression Kunpeng left on him was extremely profound. He did not care about the Middle Thousand World at all and destroyed it with his invincible attitude. This was unforgettable to this day.

It can be said that this is one of the motivations that drives Fang Xiu to constantly pursue stronger results.

And now, witnessing the attitude of Kong Xuan, whose strength was not inferior to that of the Demon Master, his heart could not help but become complicated. It was not to say that his idol was shattered, but he simply felt that such a strong man had the same mentality as ordinary people, even a little childish.

Although Fang Xiu also understood that it was not easy to equate the gods and demons of different worlds based on empiricism alone, Fengshen was still one of the most orthodox Eastern mythological worlds. Through the memories of Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao, he could confirm that the background was Pangu creating the world and Hongjun preaching.

Of course, Kong Xuan's bearing could not be faked. Coming to the Shang Dynasty to serve as the commander-in-chief, he didn't even bother to conceal his aura. There was no need to investigate specifically. Just take a quick glance with the third eye between his eyebrows from a close distance - the five-colored divine light of blue, yellow, red, black and white was flowing!

In Fang Xiu's vision, they suppressed all colors, and the world was filled with only the five-colored divine light, which seemed particularly overbearing.

"These eyes...interesting, nice, very good."

Like Fang Xiu, Kong Xuan was attracted by the pitch-black nine-magatama Samsara Eye, and then looked at the heavenly eye pattern between his eyebrows.

The two of them tested each other very well.

In his field of vision, accompanied by the flow of five-colored divine light, Fang Xiu only felt that the world before his eyes turned into a colorful world. His soul, which was as solid as a rock, was shaking with them, as if it was about to fall, but Kong Xuan controlled the scale so that it would not turn into a killing move.

Test?

Are you excited to see prey?

It just happened to be what I wanted!

After being slightly surprised, he felt delighted. Considering that he was not fighting for his life, Fang Xiu did not plan to use the Heaven-Devouring Demon Art. A golden light flashed in the lines between his eyebrows, trying to disperse the five-colored light in front of him.

Caught off guard, Kong Xuan almost lost his balance and could not help but increase his strength. At the moment when the five colors of blue, yellow, red, black and white were about to be broken, they filled Fang Xiu's vision again.

His eyes focused, and suddenly a bright light shone!

Naturally it is the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.

Because it turns out it works!
This time, the five-colored world began to shake as the golden line passed by, and then the amplitude became more and more exaggerated. Under Kong Xuan's control, black cracks appeared.

When the cracks became dense enough to reach a critical point, there was a snap, and the scene in front of Fang Xiu returned to its original state, shattering like a windshield.

Study, bamboo pieces scattered on the ground.

It was like a dream, as if everything that happened before had never happened.

"Fellow Taoist, you are polite!"

At this time, Kong Xuan stood up, as if he recognized Fang Xiu's performance, with a bit of apology on his face, and took the initiative to break the awkwardness, saying:
"I have only recently refined this five-colored divine light, so it is difficult for me to grasp it. I did not expect that I would almost accidentally hurt a fellow Taoist today. I hope you will forgive me!"

Just an excuse.

However, this kind of thing is completely understandable. At least the other party perfectly controlled the scale throughout the whole process. Seeing that he had broken through, he never increased his intensity further and broke the definition of competition.

In fact, even if he didn't take this approach, he would have taken the initiative to invite Kong Xuan to teach him.

Now, judging from his attitude, Kong Xuan seemed to be treating him as an equal, otherwise there would be no need for him to stand up and greet him.

You know, the son of Phoenix Ancestor single-handedly blocked the entire Chan Sect outside Jinji Ridge at the end of the Conferred God Catastrophe, and Randang and Lu Ya were all helpless and fled in embarrassment!

Optimistically speaking, if I encounter the Taoist Zhunti who disregards his dignity and personally takes the field, uses the Seven Treasures Magic Tree and the Golden Body to revive the Emperor's soldiers at all costs, I have a certain chance of passing.

Of course, many things cannot be concluded unless a desperate fight occurs. Anyway, with the certification of quality inspector Kong Xuan, there is no need to be overly cautious and overestimate this trial!
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but Fang Xiu remained expressionless. He returned the greeting and said with a smile:

"It's just a misunderstanding. General, don't take it to heart."

"In my opinion, the magical power of this five-colored divine light is truly extraordinary. I'm afraid there are few rivals in the Three Realms!"

He added half politely and half tentatively.

"Not worth mentioning!"

When Kong Xuan heard Fang Xiu praising the power of his Five-Colored Divine Light, he couldn't help but think to himself. After all, it wasn't a life-and-death situation just now, so many changes and methods were not used.

"Fellow Taoist, please."

Scene changes.

Before long, the two of them appeared in the pavilion in the courtyard. Kong Xuan waved his hand again, and a number of magical fruits and wines appeared on the stone table.

"I haven't asked for your name yet..."

"An overseas cultivator." Fang Xiu said casually, "Samsara Taoist."

Walk infinitely and try to reveal your real name as little as possible.

In team battles, we must guard against the curse of our true name. This is even more so when it comes to the Conferred God Realm, especially since Taoist Lu Ya, who is an expert in using the Seven Arrows Book, is in this world!

"Fellow Daoist, what is the purpose of your visit to Sanshan Pass this time?" Kong Xuan asked while pouring wine without any suspicion.

Opposite.

Fang Xiu, who had successfully established a preliminary good relationship with this great master, naturally could not say that he wanted to use him as a touchstone to accurately determine his own strength.

"A few years ago, I had a sudden inspiration and came to the human world to look for opportunities. After I found them, I practiced in seclusion for a while. Recently, I made a breakthrough, so I decided to travel around and make friends with fellow Taoists all over the world."

"I happened to pass by Sanshan Pass and vaguely noticed that there were fellow Taoists practicing here, so I came here specially to visit!"

"No wonder!"

Kong Xuan raised his glass on his own initiative without giving it much thought - his innate spiritual perception had not given him any warning, so it was obviously not a bad guest.

Just like that, the two of them clinked glasses and drank until the wine was finished, and then they started to eat and drink with the spiritual fruit. The Heaven-Swallowing Demon Art operated autonomously, replacing the six immortal thieves who were gradually being eliminated, and digested it all on the spot.

Translated into negligible strength growth.

It is worth mentioning that Kong Xuan admitted that he had only been down the mountain for a few years, so he was completely different from the Buddha Mother Peacock King in later legends. He was casual and straightforward, and laughed heartily from time to time.

In addition, the other party had a very good impression of cultivation and was completely unsuspecting. After drinking a few jars of immortal wine, they began to treat each other as brothers.

I will try my best to update in the future...I won’t promise anything. For example, tomorrow, if I am not busy with trivial matters, I will definitely update more, but I won’t tell you the specific number of words. You can see my performance in the next half month. I will not let you down.

As for blind dates, well, the girls introduced by my family are all good. If I meet their parents, they are all satisfied with me, and the girls will usually take the initiative to ask me out later.

But from my heart, I didn’t want to get married too early. I always felt that I had only graduated for more than two years, and it was the right time to make money and travel and have fun. So I didn’t take the initiative, and gradually there was no story.

This one... let's talk about it later. I've been busy lately and don't have much energy to spare. I guess it will be similar to the previous one. I'll wait for another four or five years, when I'm thirty, before I rush.
