Killing God - Chapter 424
Chapter 424 Bald Hate
The four floating immortal boats flew straight up into the blue sky and flew like lightning. Soon, they passed through the clouds. Instantly, they saw the blue sky as if it was washed. It was blue, and the sky was as clear as the most translucent blue gemstones. It was incredibly beautiful. Another red sun hung on the horizon, shining brightly, emitting tens of thousands of golden rays, illuminating the Xumi Immortal Mountain, which seemed to stand upright in the heavens. It was exceptionally magnificent and beautiful.
Flying close to the mountain, The four Immortal Boats suddenly split apart. The Floating Immortal Boats that carried a group of Origin Core Adepts suddenly accelerated. The bow of the boats was pulled up and they continued to fly towards the higher mountain peaks. The remaining three Floating Immortal Boats slowly slowed down and then flew towards the mountain peaks. As they watched the green ancient wood smoke rising like immortal forest, they slowly became clear beneath their feet.
A short while later, a large platform appeared in front of him. It was much larger than the Guanhai platform on Golden Rainbow Mountain. The white jade railing was paved with bluestones. From afar, one could see a large rock standing on it. There were three large words carved on its face:
The Welcoming Immortal Arena.
Shen Shi looked at the three big characters on the boulder, thinking that Yuanshi Sect’s aura was truly extraordinary. Not to mention anything else, he had at least firmly placed himself on the status of a divine immortal. As the clouds filled the air, the three floating immortal boats descended one by one. The disciples of Lingxiao Sect walked down one by one. Then, under the leadership of Du Tiejian and the others, they gathered together and headed towards a large courtyard with many eaves and painted walls. It looked very beautiful and exquisite.
As Shen Shi walked through the crowd, he soon saw the plaque at the gate with the words “Ling Xiao Monastery” written on it.
Unlike the viewing platform on the Golden Rainbow Mountain of the Soaring Firmament Sect, the Immortal Welcoming Platform of the Origin Sect was also flat and spacious, but the surrounding buildings were not where the disciples of the sect gathered. For many years, the Four Great Conferences had always been held at the Origin Sect. Every ten years, the elites of the other three great sects would come here. It was because the Origin Sect had built three monasteries around the Immortal Welcoming Platform to accommodate the disciples of the three sects at each Four Great Conferences.
Apart from the Ling Xiao Monastery of the Ling Xiao Sect, there were also two monasteries around the Immortal Welcoming Platform that formed horns. Naturally, they were the “Dragon Suppressing Monastery” and the “Heavenly Sword Monastery”.
They had traveled thousands of miles from Haizhou to this place. They had worked hard all the way here, but once they arrived at Xumi Mountain, they could directly live in the arranged accommodation. Moreover, the courtyard was clean, tidy, spacious, and beautiful, and even luxurious to the point where everyone lived alone in a spacious room. The disciples of the Origin Sect who accompanied him were mostly gentle and patient. They had practically done all the details of the reception meticulously. It truly made one feel as if they were at home.
Du Tiejian’s old fogeys who had been here several times didn’t need to say anything, A rookie disciple like Shen Shi who had come to the Origin Sect for the first time had a good impression of the Origin Sect from the bottom of his heart. As a result, Shen Shi had chatted with Du Tiejian on the way here, and he was worried that the people from the Origin Sect would be more arrogant than him.
Originally, thinking about it, how could a famous family that could inherit for ten thousand years be so superficial from top to bottom? Occasionally, a few obedient people would appear, but that didn’t really represent Yuanshi Sect’s entire appearance.
It was said to be the Four Great Halls, but the main role of the meeting was naturally those Origin Core Realm Daoists. Naturally, it was up to them to do what was important under the heavens, and the young disciples who followed them were mostly for the trip to Wentian Secret Realm after the Four Great Halls. Thus, after settling down in the Ling Xiao Monastery, most of the disciples from Lingxiao Sect who followed him here were at ease.

According to the previous arrangement, the eight Origin Core Realm Adepts of the Ling Xiao Sect went to the summit of the Star Seizing Peak. They naturally went to meet the Sect Leader of the Origin Sect and the other great figures in the sect to talk about the past. Then, they chatted about the major events and the Four Great Conferences. They only waited for the arrival of the people from the Dragon Suppressing Palace to officially convene the Four Great Conferences.
In fact, during the first few days of the Four Great Halls, there wasn’t anything special that needed to be done for the young rookie disciples. There was no need for them to worry about the world’s major issues. They were either cultivating peacefully in another courtyard or cultivating energetically to prepare for Wentian Secret Realm’s journey. Three days after the start of the Four Main Sects Meeting, there would be a few large and small Spirit Materials and Treasures Fairs under the Four Main Sects. This was for the sake of strengthening the exchange between the disciples of the Four Main Sects. It was very lively. Judging from past years, there would always be some extremely precious treasures appearing.
This was especially the case at the level 1 Origin Core Realm Adept Fair, where the highest level of participation was the smallest, and where the trade fair was held behind closed doors, which had always been closed to the public. One had to know that the Four Righteous Families were the top sects in the Primordial Chaos Cultivation World, Amongst the four great sects, Daoist Primordial Core Realm cultivators, Naturally, he was the strongest and richest person in the entire human cultivation world. It was even rumored that this mysterious trade fair was already regarded as the most precious trade fair in the entire Primordial Chaos cultivation world. Even the World’s First Chamber of Commerce, the Divine Immortal Gathering, held in Tianhong City’s main hall, was not as famous as the World’s Treasures Gathering.
However, this had nothing to do with a young disciple like Shen Shi.
He stayed in Ling Xiao Monastery for a day. The next day, at noon, he heard a commotion outside. He walked out and saw a few more floating immortal boats flying over from the sky and slowly descending. Needless to say, this was the disciple of Zhenlong Palace’s sect coming over.
Shen Shi strolled to the entrance of the Lingxiao Monastery. There were already a few people standing there. Among them, there was a familiar figure on the side of the gate. It was Sun You. Shen Shi laughed. He walked over and patted his shoulder. He smiled and said, “You came out too?”
Sun You turned around and saw that it was him. He immediately grinned and said, “I was stuffy in the room. I came out for a walk and happened to see the people from the Dragon Suppressing Palace coming.”
The two of them stood side by side. They looked up and saw three floating immortal boats carrying people. They slowly stopped at the Immortal Welcoming Platform. Sun You looked at the figures walking over there and said to Shen Shi, “Stone, have you seen these monks from Zhenlong Palace before?”
Shen Shi shook his head and said, “Nothing.”
Everywhere he looked, he saw that other than the disciples of the Origin Sect who accompanied him, most of the cultivators of the Dragon Suppressing Palace were dressed in the same clothes. They wore yellow robes and their heads were shining. They were dressed as Buddhist monks.
Among the human races of the Hongmeng Realm, Buddhism is a sect with a very long history. However, its reputation has never been prominent. There are rumors that Buddhism existed even during the Heavenly Yao Royal Court, and even spread among the demon races. There are also believers. After the human-demon war, humans ruled over Primordial Chaos. For some reason, Ji Rongxuan, one of the Six Human Saints, had converted to Buddhism and established a Zhenlong Palace in the Snow Province near the northern snow plains. The entire sect believed in Buddhism, and Ji Rongxuan himself was a monk. Thus, out of the six great sages, the Ji Clan was the only one who did not have a direct descendant of a sage’s bloodline.
However, ten thousand years later, in this world, Buddhism and Dao were not prosperous, and only the Dragon Suppressing Palace bloodline had a slight reputation. Although the Dragon Suppressing Palace was also one of the Four Great Famous Clans, it was the most secluded and quiet of the four. Apart from the once-a-decade Four Great Clan Assembly, the monks of the Dragon Suppressing Palace almost never left the Snow Province. They only cultivated in the bitter and cold Northern Snow Region all year round, which gave them the flavor of a Buddhist bitter cultivator.
As Shen Shi grew up, However, this was the first time he had seen those Buddhist monks. He felt very curious for a moment. However, when he looked around, his attention involuntarily fell on the bald heads in the distance. Then, he couldn’t help but secretly blink his eyes and glance at someone who was similarly very conspicuous in the crowd nearby with the corner of his eyes.
That person was also bald, tall, burly, handsome, and somewhat domineering, but the first thing everyone had seen was his bald head.
After that, Shen Shi quickly discovered that it wasn’t just him, but also Young Friend Sun who was standing beside him had secretly turned his eyes to look over.
Then, the two of them realized that they weren’t the only ones. Amongst the dozens of fellow disciples at the entrance of the Ling Xiao Monastery, everyone actually turned to look at the bald man in their own sect at the same time.
Originally, Du Tiejian was carrying a wine gourd. He was looking over there with a bright smile, but after a moment, the smile froze on his face. No matter who it was, he was suddenly sneakily looked at by a group of people who kept sneakily looking around and pointing at him. That feeling was not good at all!
At this moment, even though Du Tie Jian’s cultivation was powerful and divine, and his physical body was tough and hard to injure, his face tightened. He almost spat out a mouthful of wine, and he immediately shouted angrily,
“Bastards, what are you looking at!”
“Shua!” In an instant, everyone turned their heads in unison.
Du Tiejian was even angrier. He scolded, “Damn it, you bastards, haven’t you seen a bald man in your entire lives?”
The Ling Xiao Sect disciples didn’t react at all, as if they didn’t hear it. They chatted and laughed with each other. Then, they inadvertently walked to the side in twos and threes, further away from the ferocious bald man.
Du Tiejian was half-dead angry, but he didn’t know who to be angry with. He gritted his teeth and glared at the group of monks who had just disembarked from the boat in front of him. He said angrily, “Hateful, every time these bald donkeys come over, I will be laughed at. Damn …”
④
The monks from Zhenlong Palace quickly entered the Dragon Suppressing Monastery. After that, they had a cold temperament. It was surprising that no one came out for a long time. And this day almost passed very quickly. By tomorrow, the four main gatherings would be the time for the four main gatherings to be held.
However, that night, when night fell and the moon rose, Shen Shi was still in his room thinking about cultivating when he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from outside, and it seemed that it came from the Immortal Welcoming Platform outside the courtyard.
In a large sect like Yuanshi Sect, was there someone quarreling again at night? This was a very rare matter. Shen Shi immediately walked out quickly and arrived at the entrance of the Ling Xiao Monastery. He saw that there were already quite a few people standing there, and there were also quite a few people walking over from behind. It seemed that they were all here to watch the fun.
He walked to the door, Looking out, By the bright moonlight, Outside the three courtyards, There was a group of disciples from the Origin Sect who looked quite young around the entrance of the Heavenly Sword Monastery. On the other side of the Dragon Suppressing Monastery, there were actually many bald monks standing by the door. They watched the movements of the Heavenly Sword Monastery from afar. It seemed that it was the curious nature of the human race to enjoy watching the fun, even the monks who cultivated in Qing Dynasty.
At the same time, Shen Shi soon heard someone shouting with anger in the crowd of Origin Sect disciples from the two groups that seemed to be confronting each other at the Heavenly Sword Monastery.
“Nangong Ying, don’t be a cowardly turtle. If you have the guts, come out!”
