Coiling Dragon Island, late August.

The Taiji Diagram above Hongwen Pavilion slowly dispersed, and the boy in red pushed the door open and walked out.

"Finally a breakthrough!"

Fu Henghua After retreating, Fu Xuanxing practiced with peace of mind. Fu Danwei gave him permission to use Dragon Gate for a trial.

After the trial, he returned to the Hongwen Pavilion for retreat, carefully understood what he saw after going down the mountain, and finally caught a glimpse of the magic of yin and yang, and entered the realm of Mystic Womb.

Now the magic power in his body has condensed into jade liquid, and he has the appearance of "Yin-Yang Unity".

Looking at the red sun in the sky, the young man murmured, "It's autumn?"

Calculating carefully, it has been three months since I came down the mountain.

"It's not just the beginning of autumn, but also the Mid-Autumn Festival."

The girl in green clothes stood at the door, looking at him with a smile.

"If you leave seclusion a few days earlier, you can try my chrysanthemum wine."

"Miss Fu."

Seeing Fu Liuhui, Fu Xuanxing's eyes lit up.

"Why are you here?"

"I live nearby." Fu Liuhui pointed to the small green building not far away, opposite to the Hongwen Pavilion.

"My aunt married my third uncle and built a Azure Rosy Tower next to the Hongwen Pavilion. I lived with my uncle and aunt when I was a child, and now I live on Azure Rosy Tower."

Looking at the closed doors and windows at the Hongwen Pavilion, Fu Liuhui sighed, "A few years ago, my sixth brother also lived in the Hongwen Pavilion. It wasn't until I left Coiling Dragon Island with my second aunt that he moved to the Langhuan Hall."

Fu Liuhui and Fu Henghua grew up like brothers and sisters. After Fu Henghua's parents died, Heng Hua missed Fu Liuhui When was still young, he continued to live in the Hongwen Pavilion. After Fu Liuhui moved out, he escaped to the Langhuan Hall and lived a free life.

Thinking of this, Fu Liuhui couldn't help but recall Fu Danwei's complaints about himself.

"Look, now that you're gone, your brother will have less trouble. When you were here, he would go back and forth every day to ask me for permission, and he would go back and forth like 'Hongwen Pavilion--Langhuan Hall'. Now, he can't even move back and forth."

"By the way, Miss Fu. I live east of the Hongwen Pavilion. Isn't it a little bad?"

Fu Liuhui came to his senses. The young man scratched his head and said, "I don't know much about etiquette, but logically, the master's place is in the east. I should live in the west, right?"

"Perhaps it is so that Brother Six can take care of you nearby? Next door to you is Brother Six's room back then. I am not letting you live in your uncle's main house. You can live there with peace of mind."

Fu Liuhui also had doubts about Fu Xuanxing living in the Hongwen Pavilion. She asked Fu Danwei privately, but the old man said nothing.

Later, I asked Aunt Deng Lan about it. Aunt Deng Lan didn't know what she said. She only said that it was a friendship from the previous generation and asked Fu Liuhui to take good care of Fu Xuanxing.

But even if Aunt Deng Lan doesn't mention it, Fu Liuhui will not neglect it just because of his status as a disciple of Song Chunqiu.

What's more, Fu Liuhui is smart and can guess a thing or two from the attitudes of the elders.

Living at his uncle's house, his grandfather started his own Dragon Gate trial for him. His master also specifically asked him to treat his sixth brother as an elder brother.

Isn't this hint obvious?

"You have been in seclusion since you arrived on the island and have not seen the scenery of my house. I will take you for a walk on the island to learn the way."

So, Fu Liuhui took Fu Xuanxing to walk around Coiling Dragon Island.

Fu Xuanxing On the first day I went to Coiling Dragon Island, I was attracted by this fairy town set among the peaks.

The fairy city is based on white jade and is scattered among the peaks. The lingering white clouds and green smoke give the jade city a bit of fairy spirit.

"My family's White Cloud Jade Capital is an ancient blueprint that my grandfather got when he was young."

Using jade as the material and refined through secret rituals, it has the wonderful effect of gathering spirits while floating in the air.

"This is Azure Cloud Jade Brick. The white jade is refined with a secret spell, and then the Azure Cloud Essence collected from the air is sealed into it. This type of jade brick is suitable for making Cloud Palace Heavenly City for flying."

The young man stamped his feet and looked at the road paved with white jade. "It is said that in the Supreme Mystery Sect period, there were five Cloud Palace Heavenly Citys where immortals lived. However, this white jade city does not seem to have any Cloud Foundations. It is more like a wandering building located among the peaks."

"Sixth brother said that Tiancheng Cloud Foundation also has a roll of drawings. What my family got are just some architectural drawings on the surface."

The young man looked at the pavilion among the clouds.

Similar to the "Hongwen Pavilion--Azure Rosy Tower" where he lives, Coiling Dragon Island is mostly a group of buildings like this. Three or two pavilions and palaces are put together, surrounded by flowers and trees, or mountain springs, which are exquisite and beautiful.

"We Mysterious Subtle Sect are the same way. We each choose a location on the mountain. When there are more people, we will branch out and find another spiritual cave. But - it's not as organized as Coiling Dragon Jade City."

Mysterious Subtle Sect does nothing as he pleases. Except for the large mountain gate guardian array that holds the entire Spirit Vein, it is up to the disciples to decide how to build it inside.

And Coiling Dragon Island based on White Cloud Jade Capital city and Coiling Dragon Spirit Vein, after the building planning is completed, minor adjustments will be made.

The young man quietly looked at the scenery of the mountain city.

The jade path is winding and the Hongqiao flying stream.

The sun shines down, and the clouds glow with five colors of light. It also highlights the crystal clear jade path and the gorgeous Hongqiao.

Unfortunately, no one uses it.

Fu Xuanxing saw from a distance that two maids carrying flower baskets came down from Dragonhead Peak.

Not far away, there is a five-color rainbow bridge that leads to the steep mountain opposite. Next to it, there is a nine-winding white jade staircase.

But the two girls were chatting and laughing, and came to Eight Trigrams Platform on the side of the mountain.

With their bodies fluttering, their draped silks fluttering in the wind, the two girls landed gracefully on the jade platform opposite. Their figures were light and graceful, like fairies flying through the clouds.

When they arrived at the Yutai opposite, the two girls went to an antique pavilion.

"That's where Jade Fragrance Pavilion, the third brother and his family live."

Fu Liuhui: "In addition to the main palace where Panlong Hall is located, there are eighteen pavilion buildings on the island, respectively located at the Spirit Vein node. Currently open, there are Ancestral Dao Hall, Danlong Garden, Jade Fragrance Pavilion, Hongwen Pavilion, and Rosy Cloud Pavilion, Seven-Step Residence, Anri Prefecture, Peach Blossom Hermitage, Langhuan Hall, Auspicious Wind Forest, Orchid Fragrance Quarter, Divine Jade Lodge, Star Spring Cove and Listening Wind Tide-Sound Platform."

She gave Fu Xuanxing instructions one by one, and then pointed at four buildings in the distance that were blocked by clouds.

"Those four have not been opened for many years."

After hearing Fu Liuhui say so much in one breath, Fu Xuanxing felt dizzy. "This... these buildings are..."

"Most of them are places where people live. Look here, that's where Rosy Cloud Pavilion, the fifth uncle, practices."

The two of them walked to a jade platform. Opposite it stood a nine-story high-rise building surrounded by five auras, and next to it was a sea of flowers.

The vast mana surged in, and Fu Xuanxing looked solemn. "Is this the senior who is about to become a pill?"

"Yes, Sixth Brother said that it will take more than ten years for Fifth Uncle Core Formation."

The five qi circulated, and the elixir phase of dragon and tiger appeared in the sky.

The two of them continued walking forward without being disturbed.

Not long after, Fu Liuhui pointed to the Cinnabar Osmanthus forest blooming in the distance. "Here is Auspicious Wind Forest. Plants peach, plum, pear, osmanthus, plum, crape myrtle, danruo and other flower trees. As the four seasons pass, peach blossoms, golden osmanthus, etc. bloom in sequence, forming four Ji Zhijing, hence the name 'Auspicious Wind Forest'. Most of the Fu Family clan members live here as guests. Xingqi and Qixiang are currently staying here with Uncle Nineteen and Uncle Celestial Granary."

He took Fu Xuanxing to say hello to everyone, and the two of them continued walking around the island.

When he saw a group of maids and servants practicing and studying in a certain forest of steles, Fu Xuanxing asked curiously.

"That's Cultivation Transmission Stele. When Sixth Brother managed Coiling Dragon Island a few years ago, he set it up for the servants. There are several exercises compiled by Sixth Brother on it."

Fu Xuanxing I thought it was an ordinary Qi training method.

But when Divine Sense submitted it, he discovered that the records in Cultivation Transmission Stele were all partial and weird practices.

Like a gardener, he breathes in the energy of hundreds of flowers to refine Essence of Wood. It also comes with several spells for growing flowers, watering them, weeding and catching insects.

Fire-Art Daoist, has a way to control spiritual fire and practice enlightenment. Coiling Dragon Island is mostly responsible for making fire and cooking, and taking care of Pill Furnace.

There are also Sweeping Technique, Cauldron-Bearing Technique, Cloud-Weaving Technique and so on.

"These weird cultivation methods are specially practiced by Sixth Brother for his servants. Nowadays, people who practice Foundation Establishment can move from Orchid Fragrance Quarter to Divine Jade Lodge."

Fu Danwei compares the servants at home to orchid grass, hoping that they will be like orchids, persevering, elegant and noble. Therefore, the place where the servants live is called Orchid Fragrance Quarter.

"After Foundation Establishment, you are my family's retainers. People like Aunt Deng Lan, even our direct descendants would not dare to be rude."

These kind of confidants who have been trained under the disciples are the people that the cultivator Lineage trusts the most.

Fu Xuanxing nodded thoughtfully.

Similar to the Mysterious Subtle Sect's Mountain Gate Guardian? But the power may be greater, and you have to go out to guard shops and properties?

"It's also a way to make progress."

Fu Xuanxing looked on with Divine Sense. The maids and servants were talking about a firework master who broke through Foundation Establishment last month. It is said that he moved into Divine Jade Lodge after his breakthrough. He is currently assigned to a Whirlwind Islet as a manager.

The two continued their sightseeing. They stopped and walked along the way to enjoy the scenery of the island.

"By the way, where is Miss Tongjun? Is she back?"

Fu Xuanxing asked her in a low voice, "When I was in seclusion, was she still hiding on Luogui Island?"

When Fu Tongjun was mentioned, Fu Liuhui looked strange.

"I'm back already, but... you'll know later."

She brought Fu Xuanxing to Seven-Step Residence.

Seven-Step Residence was built by the father of Fu Maiyuan and Fu Tongjun. When he was a child, he did not want to live with his brothers. He clamored to choose a spiritual cave in the Coiling Dragon Mountain Range to build a house.

Fu Danwei couldn't resist, so he was allowed to build a house within seven steps. Later, the wooden house was built and was called "Seven-Step Humble Abode". After he got married and had children, Seven-Step Residence renovated and expanded it to accommodate a family of four, and the name remained.

Fu Liuhui brought Fu Xuanxing to Seven-Step Residence and saw a Wutong tree from a distance with a person hanging on it.

"Tongjun girl? She... why was she hung up?"

Fu Tongjun was hung on the treetop by a golden rope, floating around with Pure Wind.
