If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 668: Heaven's Gate Opens, Immortal City Appears
As the mermaid Bi Ruo listened, she suddenly felt that the "List of Immortals" was somewhat familiar.

It’s like the household registration in the previous life.

"I haven't become an immortal yet, how can I be included in the immortal register?"

Fairy Chunli laughed and said, "Look, you are talking nonsense again. How can you become an immortal if you are not listed in the immortal book?"

The mermaid Bi Ruo asked, "Could it be that after entering the immortal register in Kunlun, he became an immortal directly?"

Fairy Chunli said: "If you can really be included in the immortal book, you can indeed become an immortal directly. But being included in the immortal book itself is also very complicated. It is not that you can suddenly become an immortal by simply recording your name on the 'Kunlun Qingjian'.

You have to have certain qualifications to leave your name on the Qingjian.

It's basically the same process as Senior Bai's "Login to the Heavenly Book".

Didn’t Senior Bai die in a heavenly calamity?
The heavenly tribulation is a test. Only by passing the test can one ascend to heaven in broad daylight and become an immortal official in heaven.

These sisters who were brought by their elders to attend the Queen Mother's birthday banquet hoped to meet the Queen Mother, be tested and recognized by her, and then be included in the Kunlun Immortal Records, becoming free and easy immortals from then on."

The mermaid Bi Ruo increasingly felt that the "List of Immortals" was like a foreigner registering in the capital, the Magic City.

"What are the common tests?" she asked.

Fairy Chunli said: "Everyone's situation is different, and the tests are also different.

But for us, the immortals who have achieved enlightenment, it can be summed up in four words: "cultivation of both inner and outer realms."

The inner cultivation method is to worship after taking a deep breath, concentrate the mind and chant silently, so as to eliminate the three corpses, concentrate the mind and find the truth, and transcend fame and fortune.

After inner cultivation is complete, one can then continue to cultivate external merits.

Saving people and saving things, being gentle and quiet, having no desires and doing nothing, being extremely filial and loyal, when you have accumulated three thousand merits, you will naturally meet the requirements of the Queen Mother. "

The mermaid Bi Ruo seemed to understand something.

It is indeed not so easy to get a household registration in West Kunlun.

This set of "internal and external dual cultivation" is really difficult.

The purpose of inner cultivation is to reach the realm of true immortality, or at least to get close to the immortal body.

It's not only the Qi refining realm, but also the spiritual realm, and it's necessary to eliminate the three corpses!
For Xiaoyu today, beheading the three corpses is an "advanced course" that he has not yet touched.

After that, cultivating merits externally is not difficult either. One needs to complete three thousand merits. This three thousand probably refers to a large number, not real three thousand merits.

Or is it that the "immortal register" of West Kunlun and Heaven is different, and there is a "exchange rate" for merit?
One merit point of Heaven is equivalent to ten points of West Kunlun?

After all, it only takes three to five hundred merits to ascend to heaven.

"Sister Bi Luo, although you have not yet become an immortal, your Taoism is not low and you have mastered it quite deeply. Why don't you understand your own Tao?" Fairy Jiang Xiao asked puzzledly.

The mermaid Bi Ruo said: "My realm is low, and I am still refining my Qi and strengthening my spirit. I am still a long way from beheading the three corpses!"

Fairy Jiang Xiao said solemnly: "The three corpses must be eliminated as soon as possible. Refining Qi and strengthening the spirit, strengthening the body and nourishing the elixir can be done slowly."

The mermaid Bi Ruo laughed and said, "I still don't know how to eliminate the three corpses."

Fairy Jiang Xiao asked, "Kunlun Jun brought you to West Kunlun to attend the Queen Mother's birthday celebration. Could it be that he wanted you to learn Taoism first to make up for your deficiencies?"

——Where is Kunlun Jun now? We don’t know.

The mermaid Bi Ruo felt a little anxious.

It is easy to tell a lie, but it is quite difficult to end its side effects.

If this group of immortals had always been strangers, she would not have been anxious.

But now that she was familiar with them, she quite liked the atmosphere of being with them. She would feel uncomfortable if she lied to them again.

"I don't know where Kunlun Jun has gone. When we enter Kunlun Garden, I will ask the immortal on the mountain about it."

She was always confident: Kunlun Jun was definitely a great god who had a close relationship with the Queen Mother.

Kunlun Jun is a great god with unparalleled power. She saw it with her own eyes, so it couldn’t be false.

It was Kunlun himself who said that it was related to the Queen Mother of the West. There was no need to lie about such a thing.

"Does the Queen Mother often teach us the Dao?"

Fairy Jiang Xiao said: "I seldom preach in public, and most of the time, it is Lady Xuannv or other great immortals who preach on my behalf.

Moreover, the Empress does not directly teach us the immortal methods for cultivation.

It only talks about the great principles. What you can understand depends on your fate and talent.

We, a group of friends, often listen to and discuss Taoism together, but our specific methods of practice are often different.”

The mermaid Biluo asked again: "Sister asked me to kill the three corpses as soon as possible. Is it easy to kill the three corpses? I mean it is compared with refining qi and conserving spirit."

According to the "experience" she gained from online novels in her previous life, beheading the three corpses should be a very high level of realm.

Kill the three corpses and become a saint directly.

How come at this point, even a "no-name immortal" can eliminate the Three Corpses?
Fairy Jiang Xiao said: "I asked you to kill the three corpses as soon as possible, because the longer you delay, the more difficult it will be.

How you decide to eliminate the Three Corpse Gods depends on you.

Everyone has different talents, and what suits me may not suit you."

Discussing Taoism with this group of immortal guests brought great benefits to the mermaid Bi Ruo.

Although Xianke is a "no-name brand", they have all the necessary "parts".

At most, the quality is poor, and it doesn’t even have a brand name label (the inheritance of the Xuanmen orthodox sect).

The only drawback is that this group of immortals don’t like to talk about Taoism.

The content of their "discussions on metaphysics and the Way" is often "miscellaneous studies" that have little to do with cultivation and are mainly for self-cultivation.

The mermaid Bi Ruo talked to the fairies Jiang Xiao and Chun Li for a while, but they became quite impatient and started singing happily again.

This made the mermaid Biluo suspect that they were mentally ill.

But if you think about it carefully, singing is their (birds') nature, and they have already become immortals. If they can't go up, they can go down. They are listed in the immortal register (enrolled and landed), so there is no need to worry about falling down.

Why not let your nature run wild and pursue freedom?
At this moment, I am dragging people to discuss the methods of cultivation, as if in the summer, I am dragging the freshmen who have just finished the college entrance examination and received offers from prestigious universities to redo a few sets of college entrance examination simulation questions.

You can imagine how people will react.

Compared with this group of free-spirited immortals, the mermaid Bi Ruo, who is always thinking about studying Taoism and improving her strength and realm, is a "lunatic king" who doesn't fit in.

"Oh, I must find an opportunity to bring Sister Cui'er here in the future. She is the most suitable for the environment here." She sighed silently in her heart.

However, Kunlun Garden is a blessed land, and even these scattered immortals cannot live there for a long time. It is easy to bring Sister Cui'er here, but I am afraid that we cannot enter the capital of Guishan Spring Mountain and Xina.

Anyway, I'm just interacting with this group of immortals who are not hostile to the world and have no intrigues, so I can go to their cave to socialize!
She just thought of asking a few good sisters for their contact information, but then she remembered her current situation. Normally, when asking for someone else's contact information, you have to leave your own contact information as well.

How could she tell them her phone number and home address now that she was disguising her identity?

——Alas, when dealing with people, one really shouldn’t lie. If he had come here with his true identity, wouldn’t “Dazai Yu” have become the most dazzling star in the place?

However, since Taizai Yu could receive the respect and admiration of the immortals, he would most likely be rejected outside Kunlun Garden.

After all, she had offended the husband of the Lord of Yaochi. If she really saw the Queen Mother of the West and was recognized by her, she could at least earn the title of "Queen Mother".
While the mermaid Bi'ruo was daydreaming, a red sun slowly rose from the east.

The sunrise outside Kunlun Garden is very beautiful.

The first time she saw it, the mermaid Bi Ruo was so enchanted that she watched it for more than half an hour. The second time she watched it while chatting, she looked toward the "Gate of Heaven" in the north, leaving the red sun that occupied half of the sky behind her.

Whether it was the nobleman in the octagonal pavilion or the immortal guest sitting cross-legged on the stone, they all stood up and spontaneously walked towards the mountain path to the north.

A series of two-zhang-wide stone steps go up along the mountain path. When they reach a height of about thirty zhang, they are obscured by the fairy mist.

Going higher, the mountains are surrounded by clouds and fog, and even the trees on the mountain cannot be seen clearly.

Even if an immortal opens his spiritual eyes, everything will still be hazy and unclear.

The cliff where the flying car is parked and the Kunlun Garden above it, although both are on the Kunlun Mountains, belong to different "worlds".

Kunlun Mountain is so huge that even one of its peaks (Yugui Mountain) is in three worlds at the same time: the human world, the middle world, and the heavenly world.

The cliff is the border of Kunlun Mountain in the human world.

"The gate of heaven has opened." A loud shout came from the immortal.

The mermaid Bi Ruo did not see the door, but only saw the fairy mist covering the stone steps and trees, which was quickly dissipating.

Looking at the fairy city from other directions, it is still shrouded in fairy mist and cannot be seen clearly.

Walking along the two-meter-wide mountain path and looking upward, you can gradually see the clear scenery.

The most eye-catching thing is the tall palace that connects to the sky.

It is so huge that only a corner of it can be seen from the mountain road.

The building is built on a turquoise base, with vermilion stones as bricks, the eaves are built with jade, and the windows are inlaid with green gauze curtains.

The rising sun also shines in the middle world, falls on the palace, diffusely reflects colorful light, and illuminates all directions, beautiful and dreamy.

It is more beautiful than the fairyland that the mermaid Bi Ruo expected.

"Is that palace one of the 'Twelve Jade Towers'?" she asked in a low voice.

Fairy Jiang Xiao nodded gently, "That's the Green Vermilion Tower."

“It’s so big, how many people can live in it!” murmured the mermaid Bi Luo.

"It's not inhabited by humans, but it contains all the books in the world. There are tens of thousands of immortal officials living in the building, and they are responsible for collecting new books from all over the world." said Fairy Jiangxiao.

The fairy mist on the mountain path dissipated, directly connecting with the fairy city above.

A melodious flute sound floated out from the fairy city.

It's not people playing the flute, it's the birch trees outside the city that are "singing".

The trunk of the tree is like a piece of beautiful jade, seven or eight hundred feet high, with tens of millions of green branches hanging down, which sway gently even when there is no wind.

It is not the wind that makes them move, but they move by themselves, playing heavenly music full of charm.

At first there was only the flute solo, then various musical instruments appeared, and they were extremely harmonious.

"Are those birch trees singing all the time, or are they welcoming us?" asked the mermaid Bi Luo.

"They will keep playing the 'Nine Plays and Eight Meetings', but they will never repeat themselves. Once you enter the fairy city, you will soon get used to the atmosphere of fairy music, just like mortals get used to silence."

After a pause, Fairy Jiang Xiao continued, "You should know the 'Heavenly Path' among the Six Paths, right? There are many celestial beings living in the middle realm. Some of them cannot speak, and they communicate with people through singing and laughing all their lives."

"Laughing for a lifetime, singing for a lifetime, I feel tired just thinking about it." said the mermaid Bi Ruo.

Fairy Jiang Xiao rolled her eyes. "You are thinking like a mortal. When the celestial beings sing and laugh, their mood is always the same as when mortals laugh.

Think about it yourself, are you tired when you are laughing and singing?

At that time you will only feel happy and will not think about being tired at all.

In other words, you will only laugh and sing when you are happy.

And the celestial beings enjoy that kind of joy and purity all their lives.”

"Stop talking, Immortal An Xiang is coming down. Let's go over there quickly." Mr. Xiao Han reminded in a low voice and followed the crowd forward.

Fairy Jiangxiao and the mermaid Biluo stopped muttering and followed.

At this moment, a group of fairies also came down from the stone steps of the mountain path.

Their dresses looked quite "ancient", with tiger patterns embroidered on them, which was very different from the "fashionable" Qin Dynasty costumes, which were mostly embroidered with cloud patterns.

The only antique that the mermaid Bi Ruo had ever seen was the Fengfengji.

The giant only had a strip of animal skin around his waist, which could not serve as a reference to classical clothing.

The leading fairy should be Duan Anxiang. She has empty hands and a peaceful smile on her beautiful face.

She was followed by nine fairies and nine children.

The little boy is just like the young boy who entertains guests in the octagonal pavilion. He is a chubby, fair-skinned boy who looks very blessed.

If you don't speak or show any facial expressions, you can still be quite likable.

However, Qingtong was wearing green clothes and was a little Taoist boy.

The little boy following behind Duan Anxiang was wearing colorful feather clothes, which was very gorgeous.

The children and fairies hold auspicious ornaments such as Ruyi, Baozhuang, Caifan, and longevity fans in their hands.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. Langfeng Garden has prepared a banquet with wine and drinks, and the goddess Xuannv has also arrived. Please follow me!"

Immortal Anxiang did not exchange pleasantries with anyone.

When the fairies and feathered children lined up on both sides of the stone steps, she smiled and stretched out her hand, inviting the fairies to go up the mountain.

The immortal guests were regulars, so they didn't go through any unnecessary formalities and just started climbing up the stone steps.

After a while, the mermaid Bi Ruo also came to the stone steps.

"Hey, who are you? Why don't I know you?" Immortal An Xiang frowned and called her.
