To achieve immortality, I cultivate using Qi Luck

Chapter 262: 166: Meeting the Dao Master

As for the Shangguan siblings.

Due to the background of the Shangguan family, they were arranged to sit near the front rows early on, and currently sat in the first two rows, giving them the best view of the high platform.

This worldly power and status pervaded even the Ziyun Path and was impossible to avoid.

At this moment, Qi Yun was sitting on his cloth cushion with half-closed eyes, breathing evenly as he casually meditated.

Many Daoists nearby were also doing the same thing.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan figured the conference wouldn’t start that soon and followed suit, meditating with closed eyes.

After a short wait, when everyone had taken their seats, a resounding gong was struck, hanging among a small pavilion in front of the palace on the high platform.

“Heaven and Earth have Dao, and immortals illuminate it.”

A resonant voice sounded from the front. Opening his eyes, Lu Yuan saw six figures appear at the steps in front of the palace door on the high platform.

“Today, our Inescapable Meeting begins, and I am greatly pleased to see all of you fellow Daoists gathered here.

This grand meeting aims to provide a place for fellow practitioners of the world to exchange ideas and allow us Daoist cultivators to make allies and pursue the Dao together.

Hence, the focus of the meeting is on making friends and promoting harmony, as well as discussing the Dao without involving disputes.

I hope you fellow Daoists can deeply understand this and not harm the harmony for your fellow practitioners out of momentary righteousness. ”

Among the six figures in front, an elder with a white beard stood in the first row, stroking his beard and smiling as he said, “That’s all that needs to be said. Now, I declare that the meeting formally begins at this moment.

Next up is the first part of the meeting, exchanging knowledge on Dwelling with the Dao.

We are cultivating in seclusion, and our knowledge is limited and can lead to narrow-mindedness.

One must know that there are numerous paths in the world, the grandeur of mountains and rivers in the world, and the marvels of Heaven and Earth, all of which contain the true essence of the Dao.

Therefore, as our generation of cultivators, we should travel extensively, observe and learn from the world, melting all things in Heaven and Earth into our Dao heart.

Fellow Daoists, in the next three days, you can freely seek like-minded people here to make friends with and broaden your acquaintance among Daoist cultivators of the world, strengthening your own Dao heart.”

After the white-bearded elder finished his opening remarks, he chuckled and said, “As the host, let me introduce myself first. I am Zhen Xuan, the master of the Ziyun Path. Today, I am here to gather friends from all over the world.

Fellow Daoists, if you are interested, you are welcome to discuss the Dao with me.

I would be delighted to make new friends.”

After the master of the Ziyun Path spoke, the other five figures next to him also opened their mouths in turn.

“I am a Law Elder of the Feishuang Tao, Jinyun. Fellow Daoists…”

“I am an elder of the Dan Ding Path, Anqiu. Fellow Daoists…”

These five people introduced themselves in succession, all of them elders from the other five paths, and their words were similar to those of Zhen Xuan, welcoming fellow Daoists to make their acquaintance.

However, although they said so, many Daoists in the audience didn’t show much change in expression after listening to their words, except for some with odd looks in the front row.

“Taoist Lu, if you are interested later, you can go to the stage, find other Daoists, and establish relationships with them,” Qi Yun turned and said to Lu Yuan, “At present, Daoists from more than ten countries have gathered, and the ideologies of various Dao veins in different places also vary greatly.

Associating with them will help you broaden your horizons and gain a lot.”

“As for the true person, such as the master of the Ziyun Path, even though we all have the opportunity to get to know them, it’s better for you not to bother them.”

When he spoke, the six masters and elders from the six major factions had already finished their speech and had taken their seats, waiting in front of the stage for Daoists to come and mingle.

Meanwhile, many people below the stage began to take action, rising from their seats and talking to fellow Daoists around them, gradually creating a lively atmosphere.

Lu Yuan looked around and saw that among the more than a thousand people, nobody went to the stage and approached the master of the Ziyun Path and the others.

He understood their mindset and reassured Qi Yun, “Fellow Daoist, don’t worry. I’m not one who fails to know the difference between right and wrong, and I have my own plans.”

Though he said so, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but feel regretful in his heart.

When he heard earlier that the master of the Ziyun Path said the people in the audience could also seek to befriend him, he was very moved.

That master of the Ziyun Path was a person who had cultivated the Immortal Technique, with unfathomable strength. It would be tremendously helpful to be able to ask him for guidance, not to mention the possibility of being brought into the Immortal Sect, but even to simply ask about breaking through the innate barriers.

But as it seemed now, the so-called befriending was just empty words.

They said they welcomed fellow Daoists from all over the world to get to know each other, but considering the level of the other party, the gold content of this “fellow Daoist” could be easily imagined.

If you didn’t have the self-awareness and forced yourself in, they might not say anything out of politeness.

But if any trouble or problems arise in the future, don’t blame others for it.”

With a sigh in his heart, Lu Yuan also gathered his energy and began to search for worthy fellow Daoists around him.

Although he couldn’t get to know and chat with the master of the Ziyun Path and others, which was quite regretful, there were still more than a thousand Daoists on the ground who came from all over the world and were invited here, and the vast majority of whom had enough strength.

For the simplest example, having looked around the venue, Lu Yuan didn’t find a single person with less than second-rate strength.

Such strength, when demonstrated elsewhere, would have been hard even for the Da Yue Dynasty court to gather.

Yet now, they gathered together at a single meeting..
