The appearance of these Flat Peaches seems no different from other Flat Peaches, but it is said that within their skin and flesh lie Dao Patterns nurtured by the Laws of Heaven and Earth, containing Innate Ren Water Dao Patterns.
There are not just one or two Dao Patterns within.
Eating them not only grants eternal youth and immortality but also greatly enhances one’s Dao Practice.
Of course, for High Tier Immortal Gods, it’s mainly about the taste.
Zhang Jian had tasted six-thousand-year-old Flat Peaches but never the nine-thousand-year-old Purple-Striped Peaches.
At this moment, several Yaochi Fairies were serving six-thousand-year-old Flat Peaches to the middle seats and three-thousand-year-old Flat Peaches to the lower seats, showing a clear distinction between them.
However, other supplies like Jade Dew, Immortal Fruits, and Spirit Fruits were consistent.
There were Canna Lily, Fire Dates, Fire Mulberry, Seven-Colored Crystal Grapes, and various exotic Immortal Wines, along with a small plate of Jade Pool Golden Lotus Seeds.
The Immortals were both visually and gustatorily satisfied.
Zhang Jian gazed at the large Flat Peach before him, its Immortal Light swirling, with a rich fragrance.
He noticed many Immortal Gods did not consume them right away but stored them, perhaps intending to bring them back for disciples or to use them for Alchemy. He, too, decided to save the nine-thousand-year-old Flat Peach.
Having undergone the Nine Revolutions Chaos Cyan Lotus Transformation Method’s Refining, Zhang Jian felt the benefits of the nine-thousand-year-old Flat Peach were limited for himself but extremely beneficial for his two wives, Qi Yuhua and Bai Liying, as it would enhance their foundations and Magical Power.
Zhang Jian casually sampled some of the Jade Pool Brew from the Imperial Desk.
With the booze going down, he felt the Dao Fruit Immortal Light deep in his brow gradually harmonize, emanating gentle waves of Dao Qi.
Clearly, these fine wines and Fire Dates, Fire Mulberry had significantly boosted his Dao Practice.
But the greatest benefit still came from the gains obtained inside the Jade Pool.
By devouring the pure Soul Origin of various Immortals and the Heaven and Earth Essence Qi from the depths of the Jade Pool, refined through the Nine Revolutions Chaos Cyan Lotus Transformation Method, he skipped tens of thousands of years of painstaking practice.
Zhang Jian felt the Immortal Light of his Great Perfection Dao Fruit gradually harmonizing without flaw, and after the Jade Pool Assembly ended, he could officially take his first, second, and even third steps.
The ten Immortals, although respectfully seated at the end, couldn’t converse with the Daoist Monarchs above, but they took the opportunity to exchange some words with each other.
Being able to stand out among the Immortals of the Jade Pool, the ten were undoubtedly the best among them, naturally recognizing each other’s talent and seeking connections.
Through this chance, Zhang Jian also got to know some non-Daoist Monarch Realm Immortal Gods seated above.
They included Kong Ji Daoist from the Five Elements Daoist Palace,
also Hai Wu Daoist from the Boundless Sea Realm of the Ten Directions Celestial Realm, of the Sea God Clan.
The Sea God Clan is one of the lineages left by the Ancient Sea God Yujiang, known for producing numerous powerful beings, highly renowned.
Among them was also Min Hua Immortal Monarch from the Central Celestial Realm.
Min Hua Immortal Monarch, like Celestial Monarch Zhonghua before, hailed from the Celestial Race, with extraordinarily formidable Dao Practice.
There were also several formidable Celestial Monarchs stationed in various regions, Celestial Monarch Chongshan, Demon-Suppressing Celestial Monarch, Celestial Sword Venerable, all known in the Celestial Realm as powerful warriors, with the potential to accomplish Daoist Monarch, or having even taken a few steps beyond Taiyi Perfection.
But Zhang Jian also noticed some Immortal Gods harbored hostility and were cold to him.
For instance, Celestial Monarch Chongshan, Demon-Suppressing Celestial Monarch, and Min Hua Immortal Monarch.
Celestial Monarch Chongshan’s coldness towards him, Zhang Jian could understand, as they indeed had their grudges.
The other day, when Zhang Jian was ordered to descend to assist Bai Hua Fairy, he had encountered some of Chongshan’s disciples making a move against Bai Hua Fairy, thus he retaliated harshly, making enmity inevitable.
However, the distance from Demon-Suppressing Celestial Monarch and Min Hua Immortal Monarch baffled him, though he paid it no heed.
Braving responsibilities inevitably offends some Immortal Gods,
unless one remains mediocre throughout.
Just then, a nearby Immortal spoke up.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, have you seriously studied the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique, or perhaps the Eight-Nine Profound Technique of the Western World?"
Hearing this, Zhang Jian looked over and casually said.
"Why does Qinghua Dao Brother say this?"
The speaking Immortal was Qinghua Daoist from the Kunlun Celestial Realm’s Jade Void Daoist Palace, his countenance warm as jade, yet his eyes revealed inquisitiveness.
Qinghua Daoist transmitted sound saying.
"Just now I observed Fellow Daoist manifesting a sign of Chaos Cyan Lotus Body Refining. Such an ability for Chaos Birth is rather akin to the Nine Revolutions Profound Technique passed down in our Jade Void Dao Palace lineage, showing some similarities!"
Zhang Jian’s heart stirred, for during his metamorphosis in the Jade Pool, he indeed accidentally glimpsed part of the mysteries of the merging Three Religions Immortal Light, thus gaining insight into a majestic Talisman.
It subsequently triggered the Innate Creation Cyan Lotus inheritance.
Hence he replied.
"I have not dabbled in it, though I did have other opportunities previously, thus gaining some realizations!"
He remained tightly lipped about the matter, refraining from elaborating.
Qinghua Daoist understood at heart.
And refrained from asking further.
The Jade Pool Assembly reached its climax following the appearance of the Flat Peaches, leading to numerous Yaochi Fairies stepping forward to perform dances, yet with the absence of Taiyin Immortal Monarch, the songs and dances still lacked some elegance.
Then a Female Immortal proposed that the Hundred Beasts and Hundred Birds perform.
The Hundred Beasts Immortal and Bai Niao Immortal Monarch did not demur, promptly summoning some White Tigers, Qilin, Monkeys, and other children to step forward.
Bai Niao Immortal Monarch then summoned Cyan Simurgh, Dan Feng, White Crane, Yellow Bird, and other Immortal Birds to gracefully dance in the center of the Jade Pool, bringing yet another unique flavor.
