Starting Immortal Cultivation from a White Dog
Chapter 317 The Lord of the Water Department Establishes the Dragon Palace
Inside the quiet room of Tingzhuxuan.
Bai Fengxian slowly rose to her feet, her body surrounded by azure moonlight, and the three divine wheels slowly rotated behind her.
Her gaze was cold and clear as she looked up at the sky through the window of the quiet room, sensing a familiar presence approaching the Lu family.
"They came so fast."
Before long, a pale blue streak of light pierced the sky and landed precisely in the front yard of the Lu family's ancestral home.
The light faded, revealing an old woman with white hair.
It was none other than Bai Youhuan, the patriarch of the Bai family.
After landing, Bai Youhuan's gaze immediately turned towards Tingzhu Pavilion. A hint of excitement flashed in her cloudy eyes. Leaning on her cane, she walked slowly but steadily toward Tingzhu Pavilion.
At this moment, Lu Nanxi rushed over upon hearing the news.
"Senior Bai," she stepped forward and bowed, "why did you come in person?"
Bai Youhuan stopped and looked at Lu Nanxi, her voice gentle: "Patriarch Lu, I also noticed the celestial phenomenon just now. I wonder if this phenomenon is related to Fengxian?"
Lu Nanxi said, "I don't know about this either. Why don't we ask the Grand Commander and Senior Fengxian after they come out of seclusion?"
As the two were talking, the door of Tingzhuxuan slowly opened.
Bai Fengxian walked out from inside.
When Bai Youhuan saw Bai Fengxian, his cloudy eyes widened suddenly, and his cane fell to the ground with a thud.
The woman before me possessed unparalleled beauty and extraordinary temperament.
Her skin was fair and translucent with a bluish-green luster, and her eyes seemed to hold countless wind spells that rose and fell within them as they moved.
What's even more stunning is the natural aura of the four seasons that surrounds her.
On the left, a gentle spring breeze and drizzle; on the right, the autumn wind and white dew; ahead, the faint rumble of summer thunder; behind, the falling snow of winter...
The four seasons coexist harmoniously around her, revealing the mysteries of the cycle of time.
Three feet above her head, a phantom of a bright moon floated, its light cascading down like a waterfall, enveloping her within it.
This is no longer an ordinary cultivator, but a true immortal descended to earth?
"Fengxian...you..." Bai Youhuan's voice trembled, momentarily incredulous, "What is this...?"
Bai Fengxian nodded slightly, stepped forward to support the ancestor who was so excited he could barely stand, and said in a clear voice with a hint of gentleness: "Ancestor, I have broken through and have ascended to the position of True Immortal."
Bai Youhuan gripped Bai Fengxian's hand tightly, tears streaming down his face: "Good...good...my Bai family has finally produced another true immortal! Heaven bless the Bai family! Heaven bless the Bai family!"
She was so excited that her whole body was trembling.
Lu Nanxi watched from the side, deeply shocked.
She could clearly feel the immense pressure emanating from Bai Fengxian, which made her tremble involuntarily.
Bai Fengxian turned to Lu Nanxi and nodded slightly: "Patriarch Lu, I'm sorry to have bothered you these past few days."
"Now that my mission is accomplished, I must return to the Bai family. I will never forget the great kindness and virtue of the Grand Commander. In the future, the Lu family and the Bai family will be of one mind. If you encounter any difficulties, please feel free to contact me."
Lu Nanxi quickly bowed, "Senior, you are too kind. It is an honor for our Lu family that you were able to break through."
Bai Fengxian nodded her thanks, then looked at Bai Youhuan and said, "Ancestor, let's go back."
"Good! Good!" Bai Youhuan nodded repeatedly, so excited that he was incoherent.
Bai Fengxian then said to Lu Nanxi, "Patriarch Lu, farewell."
Having said that, she supported Bai Youhuan, and a cyan cloud rose from beneath her feet, carrying the two of them slowly upwards.
As she rose into the air, Bai Fengxian turned and nodded slightly to Lu Nanxi. Then she transformed into a streak of azure light, carrying Bai Youhuan as they flew toward the horizon and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Lu Nanxi stood in the courtyard, gazing in the direction the two had left, remaining silent for a long time, her heart churning with turmoil.
"I wonder what kind of opportunity her husband gave her? That she was able to become a true immortal in such a short time."
This truly made it difficult for her to remain calm.
……
Fengxian County, Bai Family.
After leaving the Lu family, Bai Fengxian and Bai Youhuan returned directly to the Bai family without stopping.
While the two were still on their way, Bai Youhuan had already sent a message to the three palace masters, requesting all the high-ranking members of the Bai family to gather and respectfully welcome the true immortal of the Bai family.
At this moment, the three main hall masters, along with the five palace masters and dozens of pavilion masters, all gathered together, waiting for the arrival of the true immortal.
Although the three shop owners received a message from the Bai family patriarch, they did not know where the so-called true immortal came from.
The others were even more confused about the purpose of the three hall masters summoning them all together, and they couldn't help but gossip among themselves.
However, when Bai Fengxian and Bai Youhuan appeared in the sky above the Bai family's ancestral home, all three palace masters were stunned.
Their gazes all focused on Bai Fengxian.
The woman who suddenly appeared was surrounded by azure moonlight, with twelve layers of celestial robes swirling around her, and the winds of the four seasons coexisting harmoniously around her, with a bright moon floating above her head.
They could clearly feel the immense pressure emanating from Bai Fengxian, the aura unique to true immortals!
"Who is this...?" the Lord of Taiyin Palace asked hesitantly.
Bai Youhuan stepped forward excitedly, leaning on his cane, his voice trembling: "My Bai family's prodigy, Bai Fengxian, has broken through to the True Immortal realm, and you all dare not even pay your respects?!"
His words were like a thunderclap, shaking the hearts of all the high-ranking members of the Bai family present!
A true immortal?!
These two words struck everyone's heart like a heavy hammer.
The Bai family has a lineage dating back to ancient times. Although there are many wandering immortals, there are very few true immortals... those are the ones who can truly obtain the authority of their ancestors.
After a brief silence, everyone finally came to their senses.
The Lord of Taiyin Palace was the first to bow, his voice trembling with disbelief: "Lord of Taiyin Palace, I pay my respects... I pay my respects to the True Immortal!"
The Palace Master of Wangshu followed closely behind, his voice soft yet unable to conceal his excitement: "Palace Master of Wangshu pays respects to the True Immortal!"
The Palace Master of Xuanji Palace also recovered from his disbelief and shock, and bowed respectfully: "Palace Master of Xuanji Palace pays respects to the True Immortal!"
The three palace masters took the lead, followed by the five palace masters and dozens of pavilion masters who bowed and paid their respects, creating a wave of applause.
"We respectfully welcome the true immortal back to his origin!"
Everyone's face was filled with excitement and ecstasy.
A true immortal! The Bai family has finally produced another true immortal!
What does this mean? It means that the Bai family has the potential to become the overlord of the Southern Frontier, enough to sustain the Bai family's prosperity for a thousand years.
Tears streamed down Bai Youhuan's face, but he suppressed his excitement and, leaning on his cane, announced loudly: "When Feng Xian broke through, she caused a celestial phenomenon. She has been granted an imperial edict by the Jade Void Heavenly Venerable of the Heavenly Court, and has been conferred the title of Wind Mother Yuanjun, in charge of the Wind Queen Palace, and ranked among the righteous gods of the Heavenly Court!"
Upon hearing this, the square fell silent once again.
This time, even breathing was barely audible.
A title bestowed by the Heavenly Court? The Wind Mother Goddess? A righteous deity of the Heavenly Court?
Each word is more impactful than the last!
Becoming a True Immortal was already an incredible surprise, but to be appointed by the Heavenly Court and ranked among the True Gods... this was an honor I could never even dream of!
After a long silence, the Lord of Taiyin Palace asked in a trembling voice, "Ancestor... is this true?"
“Absolutely true!” Bai Youhuan nodded emphatically, then looked at Bai Fengxian.
Bai Fengxian didn't say much, and activated the Heavenly Court's edict.
In an instant, a golden light shot straight into the sky, auspicious clouds and rosy hues filled the air, and the vast Daoist aura of the Heavenly Court spread out.
The magnificent Wind Mother Palace appeared and disappeared amidst the golden light. "Thump!"
One of the palace masters knelt down on the ground, tears welling in his eyes: "God bless the Bai family! God bless the Bai family!"
Immediately afterwards, like dominoes falling, all the high-ranking officials present, including the three hall masters, knelt down.
"Greetings, Wind Mother Goddess!"
May the Holy Lord be well!
The sound was like a tidal wave, echoing throughout the Bai family ancestral home.
Bai Fengxian stood before the crowd and accepted the greetings with composure.
She was surrounded by azure moonlight, and the illusory shadows of the four seasons swirled around her. The illusory moonlight above her cast a clear glow, illuminating the entire square in a dreamlike manner.
After everyone had finished paying their respects, she raised her hand to help them up, saying, "Please rise, everyone. Although I have ascended to the celestial position and received an imperial decree from the Heavenly Court, I am still a member of the Bai family. From now on, I will work together with you all to bring glory to the Bai family."
These words, spoken calmly, only fueled the crowd's excitement.
For a true immortal, a righteous god of the Heavenly Court, to remember old times in this way is a blessing for the Bai family.
Bai Youhuan wiped away his tears and said loudly, "Pass down the order to start the family's highest celebration to congratulate Feng Xian on ascending to the position of True Immortal and receiving the title from the Heavenly Court."
"We invite all forces in Southern Xinjiang to attend the ceremony!"
"I will obey the Ancestor's command!"
Everyone responded in unison, their faces beaming with unprecedented radiance.
Over the next few days, the Bai family was filled with jubilation and busy preparations. Lanterns and decorations were hung, celebrations were in full swing, and every member of the clan wore a proud and joyful expression.
The news of Bai Fengxian's breakthrough to True Immortal and her appointment by the Heavenly Court swept across the Southern Frontier like a whirlwind, and spread to the entire world at an even faster pace.
The world was shaken!
……
Tonghai County, the county seat, deep within the imperial palace.
The Third Prince Moang leaned back on the dragon throne, toying with a beautiful young woman in his hands, as if rubbing a bright pearl, unable to put her down.
Turtle Lord stood respectfully to the side, quietly reporting the news he had just received.
"Your Highness, news has just arrived that Bai Fengxian of the Bai family has broken through to the True Immortal realm. She has received an imperial edict from the Jade Void Heavenly Venerable, and has been conferred the title of Wind Mother Yuanjun, ranking among the righteous gods of the Heavenly Court."
Mo Ang paused, a hint of surprise appearing on his handsome face. "The Bai family actually has such a prodigy? Who is this Bai Fengxian? Why was she never mentioned in the previous intelligence?"
Gui Qiansui frowned and said, "Your Highness, this woman is from a collateral branch of the Bai family and has an unpredictable relationship with the Lu family. It is said that she obtained a great opportunity from the Lu family, which enabled her to ascend to immortality in one step."
"This woman's breakthrough to True Immortal will likely be detrimental to us."
"The Bai family, the Lu family, and the Zhu Rong clan had already formed an alliance and vowed to expel the dragon race. Now that she has broken through to the True Immortal realm and been appointed by the Heavenly Court, she will likely take further action."
Moang casually threw the woman in his arms to the ground, ignoring her cries of pain and pallor, leaving her snow-white skin to touch the ground.
"The bloodline of the Wind Mother..." Moang murmured to himself, "If I remember correctly, it should belong to the Thunder Department of the Heavenly Court, the inheritance of the Wind Queen's Palace!"
"Now that Feng Hou has returned to his position, the strength of the Thunder Department has increased again. Fortunately, he is only a True Immortal, otherwise he would have become a big problem."
Gui Qiansui's eyes turned sinister: "Your Highness, if this girl grows up, she will become another Thunder God, which will be detrimental to the Dragon Palace. It would be better to kill her to prevent her from becoming a major threat in the future."
Moang said, "I'll find an opportunity to meet this woman."
He paused, then looked at Turtle Thousand Years: "How is the construction of the South Sea Dragon Palace progressing?"
Turtle Prince hurriedly replied, "Your Highness, the main structure of the South Sea Dragon Palace is basically complete, but it will take some time to set up a forbidden spell to connect with the seabed veins. It will take at least half a year to achieve initial success."
"This matter cannot be neglected. The most important thing for us on this trip is to build the Dragon Palace. Only when the Dragon Palace is completed can we have a solid foundation." Moang nodded. "Pass down the order to speed up the progress."
Turtle Prince hesitated for a moment, then said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid the Thunder Department and Water Department of the Heavenly Court will not let this go."
"I heard that not long ago, the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General and the Dragon King had several battles in the West Sea. The newly built Dragon Palace there was destroyed and will be difficult to rebuild in a short time."
“It’s alright.” Moang waved his hand. “Since the Water Department is concentrating its efforts on the Western Sea, we can speed up our progress here.”
"Now, the armies of Buddhism and Taoism are gathered in the Northwest, fighting against the Demon God Path. The main force of the Heavenly Court is tied down, and the Heavenly Court's Water Department alone cannot do anything to us."
"Moreover, my father would never stand idly by..."
A cold glint flashed in his eyes: "Once the South Sea Dragon Palace is completed and Father King personally arrives, even the Lord of the Heavenly Court's Water Department, General Nine Heavens Killing Child, will have to think twice before he arrives."
Upon hearing this, Turtle Lord said no more, bowed and said, "This old minister understands."
……
Just as things were getting turbulent and undercurrents were surging in southern Xinjiang.
Heavenly Court, Thunder God General's Mansion.
In the main hall, General Lei sat on his throne, his face ashen.
His body was surrounded by surging lightning power, and the surface of his deep purple armor was flashing with lightning patterns. His wind and thunder wings flapped unconsciously, bringing with them bursts of thunder.
On either side of the main hall, eight thunder generals stood solemnly, not daring to utter a sound.
After a long while, a purple-robed thunder general stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "General, that Wind Mother Yuanjun is ungrateful and dares to refuse your kindness in public."
"Why not find an opportunity, while the Holy Mother of Golden Light is away, and force her directly? A mere True Immortal is not qualified to resist the General."
Another red-faced Lei general said in a gruff voice, "General, why worry so much? Bai Fengxian is just a newly promoted True Immortal, and her foundation is not yet stable. If she dares to disobey, we have plenty of ways to deal with her."
General Lei's eyes flashed with lightning, clearly showing some interest.
Just then, a divine soldier reported from outside the hall: "General, the Nine Heavens Child Slayer General is visiting!"
General Lei Gong's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Quickly, invite him in!"
A moment later, a divine general dressed in black armor strode into the hall.
This divine general was nine feet tall, with a physique as imposing as a mountain, a rugged face, thick eyebrows, and large, piercing eyes that exuded a murderous aura.
He wore a dark black beast-devouring chainmail, with a blood-red cloak draped over his back.
His left hand rested on the hilt of a five-foot-long sword, its scabbard jet black, and he was enveloped in a chilling aura. The aura swirled around him like clouds, within which countless wronged souls could be vaguely seen struggling and wailing.
Wherever the malevolent energy passed, the air became chilling and biting, and even the power of thunder in the Thunder Palace seemed to be suppressed.
This is none other than the Lord of the Water Department of the Heavenly Court, the Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General.
The Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General arrived at the center of the hall and clasped his hands in greeting to General Lei Gong: "General Lei Gong, it's been a long time."
General Lei Gong rose and returned the greeting: "General Sha Tong has come in person. I apologize for not being able to greet you properly. Please sit down."
The two took their seats as host and guest, respectively.
The Nine Heavens Child-Slaying General got straight to the point, "General Thunder God, I have come here today to discuss something with you."
"Oh? What is it?" General Lei asked.
"The matter of the Dragon Clan." A cold glint flashed in the eyes of General Nine Heavens Killing Child. "The Dragon Clan wants to take advantage of the war between Buddhism and Taoism in the Northwest to regain control of the Four Seas and establish the South Sea Dragon Palace and the West Sea Dragon Palace."
"They are now making moves in both the South China Sea and the West China Sea."
He paused, then continued, "I intend to join forces with the General to suppress the Dragon Clan. We must not allow the South Sea and the West Sea to fall into their hands." (End of Chapter)
