Chapter 49: This Zither Should Only Exist in the Heavens!
‘What?! Other than his extraordinary chess skills, Senior actually knows how to play the zither?!’
As soon as Liu Changgong said this, Li Xuanmen was overjoyed!
Then, he remembered that this was a great immortal who had lived for millions of years, and he also liked to be quiet and leisurely.
Wasn’t it normal for him to be proficient in all aspects of chess, calligraphy, and painting?
‘As the saying goes, the more you lose, the more you gain. Although I didn’t manage to play chess with Senior, if I was lucky enough to hear a song, it would be a wonderful thing in the world!’
‘My choice was indeed not wrong!’
Li Xuanmen was elated. He was very satisfied with his decision to stay in the Grand Moon Sect!
He raised his hand and picked up the wine jar. He took a cup from the table and was about to pour wine.
But he realized that this cup was also an immortal item!
He looked up and saw that the wine jar beside the cup had the words ‘Nourishing Heavens’ on it!
This time, Li Xuanmen was about to cry!
Holding the wine cup and looking at the wine pot, Li Xuanmen did not dare to move!
He definitely could not break such an immortal item.
But what if the item spirit suddenly jumped out of it and disliked his dirty hands and slapped him to death?
He looked at Liu Changgong as if he was asking for help.
Liu Changgong looked at him indifferently and said calmly, “Pour the wine!”
Only then did Li Xuanmen dare to move!
After thinking for a while, he finally felt at ease!
After all, with Senior Liu by his side, even if these immortal items really had item spirits, Senior Liu would probably not let them beat him to death.
With this thought, Li Xuanmen’s heart actually relaxed!
He poured the wine into two cups.
Liu Changgong also took out his zither from the side.
A nine-stringed zither!
This zither was carved with dragons and phoenixes, with the azure dragon as the head and the colorful phoenix as the tail. The zither strings actually looked like the silk of a heavenly silkworm!
This thing was also a reward from the system. Liu Changgong did not see what was precious about it, but its sound was still pretty good.
However, the eyes of Li Xuanmen were stunned!
As everyone knew, the seven-stringed zither was the ultimate!
From ancient times until now, there had never been a nine-stringed zither in the human world!
As long as it reached the pinnacle of the nine strings, only the immortals in the heavens could use it!
As soon as the zither was played, Li Xuanmen felt a majestic atmosphere blow against his face!
There seemed to be an ice-cold and arrogant gaze in the zither looking down on all living beings!
When Li Xuanmen looked up, his entire body felt ice-cold!
“This… is another immortal artifact!”
Although he was already somewhat numb to the fact that Senior Liu’s house was filled with immortal artifacts, at this moment, Li Xuanmen still felt waves of disbelief!
On the other side, Liu Changgong was thinking of playing something.
Liu Changgong spoke carefully.
“Senior, actually… I also know some zither skills. I wonder if you can let Xuanmen play a tune first? Can you help me correct it?”
Liu Changgong paused. He was worried about what to play.
“Alright, then you play first.”
Liu Changgong handed the nine-stringed zither to Li Xuanmen indifferently!
Liu Changgong was so casual, but Li Xuanmen did not dare to be careless!
He carefully took the nine-stringed zither with both hands, as if he was holding an extremely precious and peerless treasure in his hands!
Although it was indeed true…
Carefully placing the nine-stringed zither on the table, Li Xuanmen took a deep breath and placed his palms on the zither strings!
Regarding chess skills, Li Xuanmen was not boasting.
After all, he was the Prince of Great Xia, and his talent in cultivation was just so-so.
Therefore, he was really good at such miscellaneous things as zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting!
Although his chess skills had been abused by Liu Changgong to the point that even his own mother did not recognize him…
However, Li Xuanmen still had some confidence in his zither skills!
Dong!
The first note was heard, and Li Xuanmen was immediately stunned!
The sound of the nine-stringed zither was like an orchid in a valley, or like a mountain flowing with water!
It was just a single note, but it made Li Xuanmen involuntarily think of countless beautiful landscapes!
He was shocked!
What level of celestial artifact was this!?
Fortunately, the power of the notes only appeared once!
Li Xuanmen’s next performance was quite smooth.
Although he had never played the nine-stringed zither before, Li Xuanmen’s talent in zither was indeed not low. In a short period of time, he had already grasped the basic accuracy of the notes!
After playing one song, Li Xuanmen felt that he had never played such a beautiful song in his entire life!
“Senior! How is it?!”
Li Xuanmen stood up excitedly and gently stroked the nine-stringed zither. His eyes were filled with infatuation.
He was very satisfied with his playing. This question was also to hear Liu Changgong’s praise.
However, in the ears of Liu Changgong, who had already reached the peak of his zither skills, this tune was simply blinded by Li Xuanmen’s playing!
The melody was already in his heart.
Liu Changgong shook his head lightly. He thought to himself that although cultivators had the great power to move mountains and fill seas…
He was even more skilled in the miscellaneous aspects of zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting!
“What is the name of this song?”
Li Xuanmen saw that Liu Changgong’s expression was indifferent and did not praise him, so he felt a little disappointed.
After hearing his question, he hurriedly replied.
“This song is called ‘Seeking the Phoenix.’ Legend has it that when the song reaches perfection, it can draw a phoenix from the sky to descend to the mortal world.”
Liu Changgong smiled. How could anyone believe such a rumor?
As a mortal, he did not need to think about such nonsense. He could not interfere in matters of the immortal cultivation world.
Ding!
It was also a musical note!
However, at this moment, in Li Xuanmen’s eyes, Liu Changgong’s aura suddenly changed!
He was as light as a flying immortal and as indifferent as the mortal world!
The two completely opposite auras actually strangely fused into one on Senior Liu’s body. Moreover, they were strangely harmonious!
At this moment, Li Xuanmen’s gaze towards Liu Changgong was already filled with shock and confusion!
After the first note fell, waves of pleasant sounds were like the flowing water of a mountain, and the echoes from the bottom of the stream were endless!
Sometimes it was ethereal and elegant, sometimes it was rushed and complicated, sometimes it was pleasant and slow, and sometimes it was like a golden spear striking against each other!
At this moment, Li Xuanmen finally understood why Senior Liu didn’t want to praise him anymore!
Compared to the song that Senior played, was that also called playing the zither?!
It was like the difference between heaven and earth! One was in the sky, and the other was underground!
He was completely immersed in the music.
In a trance, he seemed to have really arrived at a fairyland where cranes danced and dragons and phoenixes played!
Along with the beat of the music notes, these immortal birds and strange beasts actually circled around in a beautiful trajectory, as if they were also immersed in it!
To be able to make these immortal creatures so infatuated…
Li Xuanmen was filled with emotion!
Outside the Immortal’s Destiny shop.
At this moment, Wang Yuyan and Zhu Zhao’s figures had already flown far away!
But at this moment, they turned their heads almost at the same time and looked in the direction of the Immortal’s Destiny shop!
“This is… the Dao intent!”
“That’s right, the sound of the Great Dao can sweep through the Heavens! This is the sound of the Great Dao!”
The two of them looked at each other and didn’t return to the Grand Moon Sect!
The two of them used all their skills and flew crazily toward the Immortal’s Destiny shop, wishing that they could have a few more legs!
If they missed the sound of the Great Dao because of their slow speed, they would really regret it to death!
