Seven Laozu's natal magic treasures were the seven spiritual fans. However, before Seven Laozu took charge of the Heavenly Arcana Sect, only three of the spiritual fans were real natal magic treasures that he had been nurturing since he was in the Blood Condensation Realm. These three spiritual fans also formed a tripartite formation, which made Seven Laozu a top-notch existence among cultivators of the same level.
After Seven Laozu took charge of the Heavenly Arcana Sect, he used the sect's secret technique to refine the four spiritual fans that were passed down by the sect's senior cultivators into his natal magic treasures. He then took the opportunity to help the seven spiritual fans overcome their first lightning tribulation in one fell swoop, becoming seven treasured spiritual treasure fans. At the same time, it also made Seven Laozu famous in the Central Plains.
For hundreds of years, Seven Laozu never slacked in nurturing the seven spiritual fans. Not long after he became a Pure Yang cultivator, the seven spiritual fans finally reached the brink of facing their second lightning tribulation.
Just when Seven Laozu was ambitiously preparing to push the Heavenly Arcana Sect to a higher level, Seven Laozu finally deduced some creepy things hidden behind the cultivation world through some secret channels and what he had seen and heard in his thousands of years of life. This made him completely give up on his plan to push the Heavenly Arcana Sect to a higher level. He even sacrificed his own foundation and gave up the thousands of miles of territory that the Heavenly Arcana Sect controlled in the cultivation world on the plains.
In response to Lian Nan Laozu's question, Seven Laozu smiled and said, "Originally, the Old Man didn't want you to know about these things. It's just to annoy you in vain. However, the Old Man also knows that after the news of the Old Man exchanging five portions of the Lightning Tribulation Water with the Old Man's territory, everyone in the sect is probably very dissatisfied with the Old Man. They think that the Old Man is using the sect's foundation in exchange for the advancement of his personal strength. It's really benefiting himself at the expense of the sect!"
Lian Nan Laozu's face reddened as he said, "These are all disciples of my sect with shallow knowledge. They don't know that Senior has other intentions."
In fact, it was not only the disciples of the Tianxuan Sect who were dissatisfied. Even Nan Laozu himself had complained that Seven Fans Laozu was too hasty. However, Seven Fans Laozu had a high prestige in the Tianxuan Sect. He was like a pillar of the sect. Although the disciples were dissatisfied, they did not dare to openly question Seven Fans Laozu's decision.
Qing Li Laozu's face lit up with joy. "Senior brother, are you not going to give up on this territory?"
Seven Fans Laozu said solemnly, "No, this area of control must be vacated!"
Qing Li Laozu said anxiously, "Then won't our sect suffer a double loss?"
Seven Fans Laozu glanced at Qing Li Laozu and said, "A tall tree attracts the wind. If we still want to maintain our status as a large sect, we have to show weakness in front of others."
Dong Liu Laozu knew that this Senior of his had always planned things out before taking action. After thinking for a while, he said, "Senior brother, do you have any other plans?"
The other three Laozu also perked up. They looked at Seven Fans Laozu, but Seven Fans Laozu laughed and said, "Although these five portions of Thunder Punishment Waters were brought by five Dharma adepts from the five holy lands in the name of celebrating the Old Man's Pure Yang Prayer Conference, there are bound to be unforeseen events along the way. It is not impossible for us to stop them or forcefully take them. It is just that if we do that, the five holy lands will be alerted, and they might even take action ahead of time. So, we might as well let them be."
San Xiang Laozu thought of something and said, "If there is an accident, it will definitely happen in our sect's territory. The five holy lands can also use this as an excuse that our guards are not good enough. I am afraid that when that time comes, there will be disciples of our sect who do not know the truth and will participate. Should we inform them?"
Seven Fans Laozu shook his head and said, "There is no need. If our disciples can obtain one or two portions of Thunder Punishment Waters, wouldn't it be better?"
At this time, Dong Liu Laozu said, "Since Senior Brother does not intend to upgrade the seven spiritual fans, then what are you going to use the Thunder Punishment Waters for? Could it be that Senior Brother can predict that the five holy lands will let us go after we show weakness?"
Seven Fans Laozu laughed coldly and said, "The Old Man has never thought of relying on the pity of the five holy lands to maintain our sect's legacy. If we want to protect our sect's legacy, ultimately, we still have to rely on our own strength."
Qing Li Laozu said somewhat dispiritedly, "It is easier said than done. Now that our sect has weakened its own foundation, and Senior Brother has also stopped upgrading the Natal Spiritual Treasures, I am afraid that in the next 500 years, our sect will go downhill. It will be good enough if we can maintain our status as a large sect."
Qing Li Laozu's words were what the other Laozu Laozu were thinking. The five holy lands were like an insurmountable mountain, pressing down on them until they could not breathe.
Seven Fans Laozu said, "Do you know why the five holy lands can stand until now after the Seventh Patriarch?"
Seven Fans Laozu's words shocked the four great cultivators. The five holy lands, together with the overseas Crystal Palace, had always been the true legend of the cultivation world. The inheritance of the only six great sects in the cultivation world could be traced back to the time when the Seventh Patriarch opened the sky.
There were also different opinions about the legends of the six sects. The fact that the six sects could stand until now naturally caused many cultivators to search for the reason.
Seven Fans Laozu suddenly raised this question, but for a moment, none of the four Laozu Laozu could answer. In the past, these four could list a lot of reasons, such as: the most perfect inheritance, the legacy of the Seventh Patriarch opened the sky, the widest sphere of influence, rich cultivation resources, and so on.
However, on second thought, none of these reasons seemed to be the decisive factor. In their opinion, if they worked hard enough and had enough luck, it was not impossible to achieve.
The four looked at Seven Fans Laozu. Seven Fans Laozu said faintly, "The Mysterious Heavenly Mirror is the first cave of our sect, and also the most important place of our sect. Do you know how many Treasure Prohibitions have been condensed in the Mysterious Heavenly Mirror?"
The four Old Men did not know why Seven Fans Laozu asked this, but Qing Li Laozu still answered, "The Mysterious Heavenly Mirror Lake cave has condensed eight Treasure Prohibitions. It can be regarded as the top magic treasure of the cultivation world."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Qing Li Laozu's voice trailed off, Seven Fans Laozu chuckled and said, "Wrong! The Mysterious Heavenly Mirror has condensed nine Treasure Prohibitions. Now, as long as it survives the first Thunder Tribulation, it can become a Spiritual Treasure Cave, a Minor Chiliocosm! "
"What?"
Patriarch Qing Li was the first to cry out, "That's impossible! In the cultivation world, aside from the six giant sects that have inherited the nine grotto-heavens from the time of the Seven Ancestors of Split Heaven, there has been no other inheritance with the ninth grotto-heavens. How could the Tianxuan Mirror condense the ninth grotto-heavens?"
The four Old Men Laozu were also shocked. As the few who stood at the top of the cultivation world, they did not know how many times they had been shocked by their senior brother today. How many secrets did Seven Fans Laozu have hidden in his heart, and why did he reveal them today? What was his plan?
"There is no more Nine Treasures Prohibitions?"
Seven Fans Laozu sneered and said, "Just like the rumor that there is only the Six Treasures Prohibitions in the cultivation world, this is just a trick used by the six giant sects to deceive people and maintain their own status."
Dong Liu Laozu, who had always been calm, could not help but say, "Senior brother, is there really the Nine Treasures Prohibitions? Didn't they say that the Nine Treasures Prohibitions were lost long ago? Only during the era of the Seventh Patriarch, there was a powerful person who condensed a top-grade Heavenly Abode with the help of the Seventh Patriarch. After the era of the Seventh Patriarch, there was no more Nine Treasures Prohibitions in the cultivation world. If the Mysterious Heavenly Mirror has condensed the Nine Treasures Prohibitions, why did we not notice it? Senior brother, where did you get the prohibitions? "
"Isn't the Minor Chiliocosm just a legend passed down by the Seventh Patriarch? Is there really a Minor Chiliocosm in the cultivation world?"
Although Seven Fans Laozu's words greatly shocked the four Laozu brothers, they were more happy. After all, the Mysterious Heavenly Mirror could be upgraded to a top-grade Heavenly Abode, so the Mysterious Heavenly Sect could be on par with the six giant sects in one aspect.
Seven Fans Laozu sighed and said, "The reason why the six giant sects can stand for thirty thousand years without falling is not only because they have the top-grade Heavenly Abode inherited from the era of the Seventh Patriarch, but because they are not Heavenly Abode, but Minor Chiliocosm, a Minor Chiliocosm that has survived the Thunder Tribulation!"
At this time, the Three Auspicious Laozu thought of something and gasped, "Senior Brother, are you planning to use the Thunder Tribulation Water to nourish the Mysterious Heavenly Mirror so that it can survive the Thunder Tribulation and become a Minor Chiliocosm?"
Seven Fans Laozu nodded. Seeing the four Laozu brothers' incredulous and strange expressions, he continued, "Don't think that some secret realms that exist in space cracks are Minor Chiliocosm. Those are at best some broken spaces. The real Minor Chiliocosm is far from what you can imagine. The six giant sects have their own Minor Chiliocosm, which is why they can stand for tens of thousands of years without falling."
Seven Fans Laozu saw that the four Laozu brothers were still immersed in his words, so he said, "Come with me, I will show you a few things, which are also the future of our sect. Although it is also a risk, there is still a chance of survival …"
The secret chamber had become empty at some point, leaving only the Spirit Vein Essence Milk that had gradually calmed down. The mud from before had also gradually settled down.
A flashing talisman gradually floated up from the bottom of the Spirit Vein Essence Milk like a fish swimming in the water. It seemed to be a Sound Transmission Talisman.
However, the secret chamber that was always guarded by a great cultivator, Laozu, was empty this time.
In the Mysterious Heavenly City, after Yun Jian sent out the talisman, he smiled at Lu Ping and said, "Brother Lu, if there is anything you need us three brothers to help you with this trip to the Mysterious Heavenly City, please let us know!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Ping was delighted and said, "I really have something to trouble the three of you with!"
Lu Ping pondered for a moment and said, "To be honest, I think you all know that I come from the North Sea. The North Sea has always been barren, especially for spiritual objects. The Mysterious Heavenly City is a famous ancient city in the Central Region and has always been a gathering place for spiritual treasures. Now that the Seven Fans Laozu Pure Yang Dharma Assembly is around the corner, I think there will be even more treasures. This time, I came to find some channels to exchange for some spiritual objects and bring them back to the North Sea …"
