There is a beast in the bright morning.

Chapter 329 Party

With a single step, Hao Chen traversed thousands of miles, instantly arriving above the Qinling Mountains from the Zi Chen Palace.

Immediately afterwards, Hao Chen threw out a black brick. The black brick grew larger in the wind and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a mountain range comparable to the Qinling Mountains, as if it were a vast fairyland floating above the Qinling Mountains.

This action was not only witnessed by the people near the Qinling Mountains, but was also projected directly by Hao Chen onto the sky above Chang'an.

Upon seeing this, some people said it was a miracle, while others said it was the descent of evil spirits.

But none of this mattered to Hao Chen. The reason he went to such great lengths was simply to create momentum for his alter ego, who was now the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Chengqian.

"Since you want to cultivate immortality, why not let this clone try the method of governing the dynasty?"

With this thought in mind, Hao Chen's hands moved without stopping, continuously casting out complex runes, which were imprinted on the immortal land like stars in the sky.

With the blessing of the runes, the entire immortal land shook violently, and countless mountains on it rumbled. All living beings within a thousand miles of the Qinling Mountains, whether beasts or humans, felt the sky darken before being pressed to the ground by immense force.

Even those in Chang'an who witnessed this scene were affected; countless people's knees buckled and they collapsed to their knees.

The next moment, a scene straight out of a myth unfolded before everyone's eyes.

The essence of the sun and moon cascaded down towards the Qinling Mountains like a waterfall, giving birth to the first wisp of spiritual energy in this place.

Even underground, ancestral dragon veins are nurtured, capable of generating spiritual energy and dissipating it.

If this continues, the Tang Dynasty and even this world will surely receive incredible blessings, and may even evolve into a great cultivation world.

Having done all this, Hao Chen returned to the Zi Chen Palace.

However, after this incident, the entire upper echelons of the Tang Dynasty were stirred up, and they all came to Li Shimin to discuss the matter.

They soon learned from Li Shimin that this matter was related to Li Chengqian, or rather, to Haochen behind Li Chengqian.

Therefore, when Hao Chen reappeared in the main hall, he was met with the gaze of dozens of eyes. Some were curious about his appearance, some wondered where he came from, and some were wary of his strength...

Even though Hao Chen was thick-skinned, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed at this moment, as if he had been stripped naked and then stared at. He quickly transformed into human form to feel better.

"Ahem, everything has been taken care of for you. The spiritual energy in this world will increase from now on, so be prepared. As for cultivation techniques, I probably don't need to give them to you."

"Oh right, I almost forgot about that, wait a minute..."

After giving a few instructions, Hao Chen remembered his earlier plan and reluctantly took out some immortal gold from his space to refine his clone on the spot.

Soon, a book shimmering with a faint golden light appeared before Li Chengqian.

"What is this?!" Li Chengqian took the book and looked at Haochen with a puzzled expression.

"This is a list of official titles that I specially crafted for you, which contains a method for cultivating one's fortune in the dynasty."

"Those who make the list can cultivate by borrowing the fortune of the Tang Dynasty. As long as the Tang Dynasty exists, they can live on forever. You can explore and learn more about the specifics later."

What Hao Chen didn't know was that after he finished speaking, all the officials in the hall, including Li Shimin, looked at the list of official appointments in Li Chengqian's hand with burning eyes.

To live forever—isn't that immortality? It's something that countless emperors throughout history have sought, and now it's their turn.

Li Shimin was full of confidence at this moment. After all, Li Chengqian was his son, and surely he, as the father, should have a share in the longevity.

The other Tang Dynasty officials felt the same way. Changsun Wuji thought to himself that he was Li Chengqian's uncle, so he should have a share in the longevity...

As for the officials who bet on Li Tai or did not take sides, they began to get nervous and anxious, but because Li Shimin and even the more mysterious Hao Chen were present, they dared not say anything recklessly.

After giving a few more instructions, Hao Chen was about to leave when Li Chengqian suddenly stopped him: "Wait, Venerable One, there's something I want to discuss with you."

Upon hearing this, Hao Chen stopped in his tracks, and Li Chengqian, seeing this, hurriedly said, "My Lord, you and Zhan Hu are so close, could you help me get some of Zhan Hu's essence blood? I also want to cultivate my own big white tiger."

"..." Hao Chen's face darkened, feeling that his clone must have lost its mind.

Although his clone cannot represent him, if Zhan Hu knew that his clone was raising a white tiger, who knows what Zhan Hu would think, or whether he would think that it was at Zhan Hu's behest.

"Hiss!!!" Hao Chen shivered and decisively rejected Li Chengqian's request.

"No way!" But the clone was persistent and continued, "They say wealth, companions, methods, and land are all important. Now I'm only missing a companion. You already have Zhanhu, that big tiger. As your clone, I naturally want to find one too..."

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Before the clone could finish speaking, Hao Chen couldn't stand it anymore. He summoned three bolts of lightning to physically shut the clone up, then left with a dark face.

"Hey, my lord, you haven't agreed yet. Remember, what I want is the essence blood of the War Tiger, not ordinary blood, nor the stuff you drink every night."

The mention of a clone made Hao Chen's face darken even more. Without looking back, he hurried away, otherwise Hao Chen worried that he might not be able to resist destroying his clone later.

……

"Damn clone, I don't know where it learned this personality from, it actually wants to play the role of raising a child."

As Hao Chen grumbled and cursed his way back to the Deer Man Shop, he suddenly stopped as he passed the Underworld, sensing something.

"That direction is the Di Ting family, why is it so lively? Let's go take a look!" Filled with curiosity, Hao Chen changed direction and flew towards the Underworld.

Soon Hao Chen arrived near Di Ting's house. Looking at the group of floating creatures below, all covered in white cloth with only their eyes, noses, and mouths showing, Hao Chen realized that Halloween had arrived in the underworld.

Looking at the flowing white rags below, Hao Chen frowned: "I wonder who designed these clothes. It shouldn't be Xiao Lou, she shouldn't be able to design such ugly clothes."

At this moment, Hao Chen noticed two tall figures among the floating objects below, one with a black and white tail and the other with a red tail.

"These must be Di Ting and Qing Huo. The one next to them must be Xiao Lou. Go down and say hello."

Hao Chen flashed and landed on Di Ting's back: "Long time no see, Di Ting, and long time no see, little fire-wielding skeleton, have you missed me?"

Di Ting was initially curious about who dared to sit on his back, but upon hearing Hao Chen's voice, he instantly lost his temper.

"Why are you here, Hao Chen? Shouldn't you be with Fourth Boss?" Di Ting shook his body, trying to get Hao Chen off him.

However, Hao Chen's legs were tightly wrapped around Di Ting's back, and he refused to get down no matter what, which left Di Ting helpless, so he simply gave up.

He knew all too well that if he paid any attention to Haochen now, Haochen would definitely take advantage of the situation, and who knew what would happen then.

Just when Hao Chen thought he could take the opportunity to ride Di Ting a little longer, Qing Huo suddenly stepped forward and hugged Hao Chen, taking him off Di Ting.

Hao Chen, now back on all fours, glared at Qing Huo with displeasure, as if to say that he was meddling in other people's business.

Qinghuo smiled. Although he hadn't had much contact with Haochen, he knew from Diting that Haochen liked fluffy personalities.

Di Ting even warned him to stay away from Hao Chen when he encountered him. Who knows if Hao Chen would be interested in a mud dog like him?

Sure enough, the next moment, Hao Chen smiled and took Qing Huo's paw, gently kneading Qing Huo's paw pads: "Hello, Qing Huo."

Aside from Ksitigarbha, Qinghuo's face turned red instantly from having its paw pads kneaded like that. Even though it had fur on its face, Qinghuo was still a little embarrassed. Fortunately, Haochen released Qinghuo's paws at that moment.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect Qing Huo to feel so good. I wonder how Dizang sculpted it. It doesn't feel like a mud dog at all. Instead, it feels fluffy to the touch."

As Hao Chen was savoring the feeling of Qing Huo's claws, he saw Xiao Lou approach him with a white tattered cloth dress.

"This is for me?!" Hao Chen awkwardly accepted the Halloween costume from Xiao Lou, though to be honest, he didn't really want to wear it.

"Gulu (We need to wear costumes to play together on Halloween)"

However, Xiao Lou indicated that Hao Chen needed to wear a Halloween costume in order to join them at the party.

Hao Chen looked at the Halloween costumes on Di Ting and Qing Huo and thought that if he didn't wear one, he would indeed look a little strange.

So Haochen put on the flowing dress that he thought was a bit ugly.

However, Hao Chen quickly got into the swing of things, because they were playing Eagle Catches Chicks, with Qing Huo as the eagle, Di Ting as the mother hen, and Hao Chen, Xiao Lou, and the other floating creatures as chicks.

Holding Di Ting's tail in his hand, how could Hao Chen not take the opportunity to pet it? The cool and smooth feel of his claws made Hao Chen unable to resist enjoying it.

As a result, Hao Chen was so engrossed in the experience that he became the first chick to be caught, which led to Di Ting, Qing Huo, and Xiao Lou laughing for quite a while.

Besides playing games, Haochen and Diting also went door-to-door asking for candy, which is an essential part of Halloween.

Of course, this is also Hao Chen's favorite, since there aren't many opportunities to openly ask for things, it's just a pity it's not at the Deer Man Shop.

Di Ting had been thinking that Hao Chen should go back after he finished asking for the candy.

To everyone's surprise, Hao Chen ended up going home with them, showing no intention of leaving at all.

"Earth, why hasn't Haochen gone back yet?" Di Ting had no choice but to secretly ask the Earth.

"I want to sleep with you and take advantage of you!"

"I want to sleep with you and take advantage of you!"

"I want to sleep with you and take advantage of you!"

The earth's answer left Di Ting somewhat devastated, and he looked at Hao Chen with a hint of fear in his eyes.

Hao Chen was unaware that Da Di had told Di Ting everything, and said to himself, "Di Ting, look how late it is today. It's not safe for me to go back now. Why don't I stay at your house tonight?"

"As for the bed, you don't need to prepare one for me. I can share a bed with you."

As soon as Hao Chen said this, Di Ting immediately pulled Qing Huo over and said, "Hao Chen, Qing Huo and I have agreed to sleep in the same bed tonight."

"..." Qinghuo looked at Diting in surprise. Seeing that Diting seemed to really want to sleep with him, he couldn't help but smile: "Yes, I made a promise with Xiao Di."

"That's alright. I'm small, I can share a bed with you. Don't worry, I won't take up much space."

Hao Chen's words once again showed Di Ting and Qing Huo his shamelessness. Under Hao Chen's persistent pestering, Di Ting sighed helplessly, thinking that he could not see the master tonight.
