When the Winds and Clouds Gather, I Shall Observe the Dao Across the World!

Faced with Wu Chu's question, the ancestor was unable to give him an effective answer, only saying that he needed to keep trying and gradually get used to the fluctuations.

Then Wu Chu asked about the method of condensing the Merit Auspicious Cloud. He said that he would try the halo above his head another time, but the Merit Auspicious Cloud was much more visually appealing.

After hearing his disciple's request, the patriarch used Puppet to transmit to Wu Chu a method for gathering Merit Auspicious Cloud. He then told Wu Chu that if he were to travel, he should not go to the West.

Upon hearing the patriarch's instructions, Wu Chu asked, "Master, who is fighting in the Western Land? Is it the Qilin Clan and that Old Demon?"

The ancestor said, "No, it's the strongest members of the Qilin Clan and Phoenix Clan vying for supremacy, but it hasn't reached the point of a life-or-death battle yet."

Upon hearing this, Wu Chu couldn't help but sigh silently to himself.

Even though the outcome of some things has been explained to them, it still doesn't change their ingrained beliefs. Perhaps they all believe they can suppress that Demon Lord!

Given the current power of the Three Clans, it is understandable that they might underestimate their enemy.

Just as Wu Chu was quietly gathering Merit Auspicious Cloud on Purple Jade Mountain, Zhen Yuanzi was packing his luggage at Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain, far away at the junction of the Western Land and Central Land.

"Master, where are we headed?" Little Qingfeng asked.

"Go to your Uncle Hong Yun's Fire Cloud Palace! This land is too chaotic. Even if I repair the earth's veins every day, I can't keep up! Let's go there and have some peace and quiet for a while."

Zhen Yuanzi felt a bit unlucky. His peaceful days hadn't even lasted a single Epoch before they were interrupted by those Three Clans, and right there in the Western Land next to their Longevity Mountain.

"Master, where is Senior Uncle's Crimson Palace?" Little Mingyue asked curiously.

"Ten thousand floating clouds unfold, but the depths of the clouds are unknown!"

"..."

The silly Qingfeng and the dim-witted Mingyue were filled with question marks.

It wasn't until I went with Zhen Yuanzi that I realized the Fire Cloud Palace was actually a beautiful green mountain floating in the void, surrounded by thousands of Hong Yun.

On the floating island, White Crane soar through the clouds, and old deer lie prostrate in the forest, a scene of tranquility and peace.

Nestled among ancient vines and trees is a cluster of palaces and pavilions, connected by waterside terraces, with carved beams and painted rafters, flying eaves and bracket sets...

Within these palaces, exotic flowers and rare herbs grow, filling the air with fragrance, while butterflies and bees flutter about busily.

"Brother, what brings you to my leisurely stroll?"

The Ancestor Hong Yun reclined on Hong Yun, one hand supporting his head and the other holding a wine gourd, looking dashing and unrestrained as he came to greet Zhen Yuanzi.

His unruly behavior didn't seem strange to the two young Daoist disciples.

"Qingfeng (Mingyue) greets Senior Uncle!" The two young Daoist boys bowed obediently.

Hong Yun waved her hand, "Your senior sister is planting flowers in the back garden! Go on!"

The two little ones rode the wind away, while Zhen Yuanzi stepped onto the red Hong Yun where Hong Yun was, took the wine gourd from his hand, and began to drink.

After taking a sip, Zhen Yuanzi said, "This wine doesn't seem like the Hundred Flowers Spirit Brew from Purple Jade Mountain!"

Hong Yun laughed heartily and asked, "How does it taste?"

"The taste is not much different, but since it's not brewed from the Clear Spirit Spring, it's somewhat inferior."

"You don't know its value! This is brewed with Moonlight Star Dew, it's in no way inferior to A Chu's Primordial One-Qi Pure Spirit Spring!" Hong Yun said with some pride.

"I think this is all thanks to Caiyi!"

"That's my disciple too!"

Zhen Yuanzi smiled, then sighed softly, "You've sensed the changes in the Western Land, haven't you? It seems the Phoenix Clan and the Qilin Clan are about to clash."

Hong Yun shook his head and said, "Let them fight, what does it have to do with us? Although you are the master of the Earth Book, the matter of unblocking the ley lines of the Primordial Land is not entirely your responsibility. Why be so upset about it? A Chu is right! Stealing half a day of leisure, who cares about spring, summer, autumn, or winter!"

"A Chu, that's not what you said, is it?"

Hong Yun said dismissively, "The meaning is there, why bother with so much? Someone as rigid as you, how can you find the Dao and live a carefree life? Let's wait for the winds of change to gather, and I will Contemplating the Dao the world for myself!"

Zhen Yuanzi seemed to be deep in thought, then gave a bitter smile.

In terms of carefree living, he can't compare to this Brother Hong Yun. As the master of the Earth Book, it's inevitable that he has worries in his heart.

Like some people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, who always want to tap and delete certain Little Red dots on their phones, Zhen Yuanzi is the same. Once the earth's veins are damaged and the Earth Book gives him a hint, he finds it hard to ignore it.

Meanwhile, in the Mount Buzhou region, on Phoenix-Perching Mountain, Nuwa and Fuxi also awoke from their cultivation due to the fluctuations in the Great Dao.

Fuxi played the zither and flute under an ancient tree, enjoying himself immensely, which captivated all the birds.

Nuwa, sculpting a clay figure, muttered to herself, "Aren't those Three Clans stupid? A Chu made it so clear, yet it's still the same..."

Fuxi put down his long flute and laughed, "A Chu said, sometimes it's just a matter of pride. When we are ruled by pride, wisdom disappears."

"I wonder how long they'll keep fighting. Brother, why don't we go visit A Chu? It's been so long! I wonder how his cultivation is going? I'm really missing the delicious food Little Moon Spirit makes and the fine wine from Purple Jade Mountain!"

Faced with a younger sister who was captivated by delicious food and wine, Fuxi, even if unwilling, dared not easily go against her wishes. Otherwise, who knew if this willful sister would set off alone and secretly run off to Purple Jade Mountain!

"OK!"

Fuxi could only nod happily, then thought to himself, "When I get back to Purple Jade Mountain, I'll definitely find a chance to beat that guy up. Isn't that what little brothers are for?"

Yes, a younger sister is meant to be cherished!

Upon seeing Nuwa's exquisite and adorable face, Fuxi silently added to himself, "So, the difference between a younger brother and sister is quite significant."

Far away on the Lunar Star, Di Jun and Taiyi are visiting Changxi.

The two savored the Osmanthus Brew brewed by Changxi, looking completely delighted.

However, compared to Di Jun's eloquence, Taiyi seemed rather dull in front of Changxi. Mainly because Taiyi understood Di Jun's thoughts and didn't want to get involved.

However, just like Di Jun, Taiyi was also involuntarily attracted to Changxi, the Lord of Taiyin.

Perhaps this is the reason why the Taiyin and the sun attract each other!

Watching Di Jun chatting and laughing with Changxi, Taiyi silently drank his wine, longing to find someone to confide in about his troubles.

But after thinking it over, he realized that he didn't seem to have many friends.

Over the years, they have either been cultivating in the Solar Palace or drinking wine with the Lord of Taiyin, and have had no interaction with other living beings.

After thinking for a while, Taiyi suddenly remembered that little guy with low cultivation level.
