Although Li Xiumi swam in the deep sea, he was still careful when he crossed the sea for fear of being discovered by his peers. He didn't go near the land and circled around the continents. After six years, he finally arrived at the outer sea of the East Flower Continent.
At this point, he could already see two clear air rushing up to the clouds and lingering in the sky. He could naturally tell that it was Tao Zhenren and Mi Zhenren, so he turned into a human and stepped on the sea.
Not long after, a clear light flashed in front of him. Tao Zhenren stood in front of him and looked at him a few times. He bowed and said, "After twenty years, Dao friend has finally become a grotto-heaven. Congratulations."
Li Xiumi returned the greeting and said, "My feet are not stepping on the mountain, but my head is raised to the peak."
Tao Zhenren nodded and said, "After going through the Mortal Tribulation and entering this path, I finally know that the true fruit is still far away."
Their words were filled with deep emotions. Even if they reached the Elephant Realm and had the ability to overturn the continent, they could also feel that if they didn't reach that step, they wouldn't be able to truly transcend.
After a moment of silence, Tao Zhenren was the first to speak, "Although this place is quite far from the south of the East Flower Continent, Yuxiao school's methods are unpredictable. Dao friend, it's better to follow me to the small world to talk."
Li Xiumi readily accepted, but with his current realm, his real body couldn't enter the small world. He could only dive into a ravine at the bottom of the sea and turn into a clone, attaching it to a scale before following Tao Zhenren.
The two went all the way to the small world and sat down in a palace building. Tao Zhenren found a boy and said, "Go and invite Mi Zhenren here."
Not long after the boy left, a rainbow light flashed in front of the two, and Mi Zhenren appeared. She looked a little impatient and said, "What did Tao Zhenren call me for?"
Tao Zhenren smiled and said, "Sorry to disturb Dao friend's peaceful cultivation, but Dao friend Li's return can be of help to me. The original arrangements might have to be changed. I have no choice but to invite Dao friend here to discuss. "
Mi Zhenren didn't say anything, which was a tacit admission.
Tao Zhenren told Li Xiumi about the previous plan. After that, he asked, "What do you think of this plan, Zhenren Li?"
Li Xiumi considered for a long time and said, "This strategy is very safe. If Yuxiao wants to expel me again, it will not be as easy as last time. It is just that Li has some shallow opinions. "
Tao Zhenren said, "Fellow Daoist, I invited you here to brainstorm."
Li Xiumi humbly said, "I wouldn't dare. Fellow Daoist should know that I've already accepted the position of Demon Court Marquis."
Tao Zhenren nodded.
Li Xiumi said, "I have the seal of the Demon Court and can drive the sea creatures to work for me. Why don't we order them to repair the altar in the deep sea first? Let's take root and wait for it to stabilize before setting up the formation diagram. What do you two think? "
Although the Demon Court had other motives that day, he was officially conferred by the Demon Court after all. He had also obtained the broken horn of the Dragon Monarch that had been passed down for generations. Now that he was in the body of a flood dragon, once the order was given. Wherever he was, the sea creatures had to listen to him.
Tao Zhenren was slightly stunned. Then, he thought about it and sighed, "Indeed, one person is not wise, but three people are wise. This way, my chances of winning have increased."
The real difficulty of setting up the formation on the Fengling Ocean was that there was no spiritual opportunity to connect it with the earth meridian. However, if the formation base could be directly set up under the sea and connected from top to bottom, then the power would be far greater than before.
Mi Zhenren was also surprised. He couldn't help but look at Li Xiumi. She originally thought that this person had just entered the Grotto-Heaven and couldn't be compared to Tao Zhenren in terms of formations. He was just an extra combat power and wasn't of much use now. She didn't expect him to have such a method. She pondered for a moment and seemed to be hesitating about something. In the end, she still decided to say it out loud and said, "My Chong Yue Zhen Temple has passed down a refining method that can create a magical weapon called 'Dual Qi Banner'. As long as it is used, it can make the surrounding natural and wonderful. Outsiders will not be able to recognize it. These days, I have been cultivating and refining this item at the same time. I think in another three years, I will be able to refine it."
This treasure could be used to conceal the formation. However, to refine it, her Chongyue True Temple's accumulation was still not enough. However, with the support of the Qincang School, what she wanted could be sent over immediately. Hence, she had the idea to refine it.
Tao Zhenren laughed and cupped his hands together, "Then I will have to trouble you, Fellow Daoist Mi. With this treasure, I will have more confidence in setting up the formation board."
He knew that this treasure banner wasn't that simple since it could make the other party spend so much effort to refine it. It might have other uses. However, the few of them were standing together now. In the next few hundred years, they could only advance and retreat together. Even if there were some things to hide, there was no need to deliberately find out.
After the three of them came to an agreement, Mi Zhenren felt that there was nothing else to do, so she took her leave.
After the two of them sent her off, they sat down again. Tao Zhenren said, "We should inform Zhenren Zhang about this."
Li Xiumi said, "Of course. Zhenren Zhang helped me achieve success. Now that I'm back, I should personally pay my respects. Let me discuss this matter with Zhenren Zhang."
Spiritual Master Tao said "Good" and said, "After the formation was broken that day, we used the Dragon Palace to move out. None of your sect's disciples were lost, they have all been brought here. Now many of them should be cultivating in the big lake south of here."
Li Xiumi followed his gaze and saw a big lake in the south. With his eyesight, he could naturally see the people in it clearly. He said, "Thank you for your trouble, Fellow Daoist."
Tao Zhenren said, "Since Fellow Daoist has formed the grotto-heaven, the magic treasures that you used to carry with you are useless. You can't refine them yourself. This time, when you go to Qincang, you can borrow one or two magic treasures to use."
When Li Xiumi heard this, he couldn't help but nod. He stood up and cupped his hands together, saying sincerely, "Thank you for your guidance, Fellow Daoist."
With the guidance of the stone man, he didn't have too many twists and turns in his cultivation. However, when he reached the level of the grotto-heaven, his knowledge was limited. Without anyone to inform him, he could only explore by himself. This would delay a lot of time. For people like Tao Zhenren, even a little guidance could prevent him from going down the wrong path.
After a few more sincere words of advice, he thanked again. Then, this clone turned into a shadow and bid farewell to Tao Zhenren. He even turned into a golden scale and left the small world in the blink of an eye, flying towards the Great Pool of Dragon Abyss.
Southeast of Dong Hua, Daichi Mountain.
Jiang Zheng and Dan Huizhen sat on the same flying boat and slowly descended to the peak. After the two of them came out, a dozen or so flying boats descended one after another behind them. All of them were Peng Yuan disciples, and under the command of a woman who looked like a steward, all of them spread out and planted formation flags in the surroundings, setting up restrictive spells.
Dan Huizhen looked at the scenery under her feet and thought that this was the original location of Pengyuan. She couldn't help but have a complicated look in her eyes. She sighed softly and said, "Although this place is good, I haven't really decided the winner with Taihao, so it's not in my hands yet."
Jiang Zheng tilted his head and said, "Don't worry, Madam. It's enough to win two more times."
Twenty years ago, he was instructed by Zhang Yan to come here and challenge the disciples of Taihao School. In the end, he won a small battle with the Celestial Fire Six Imperial Righteous Technique and occupied Daichi Mountain.
Although this place was considered a blessed land, Taihao School wouldn't do anything even if it was lost during normal times. However, it was different if it was taken away by others. This was a matter that concerned the reputation of the school. Therefore, they sent an envoy here and requested for a battle every twenty years. The first to win three times would be the master of Daichi Mountain.
Jiang Zheng thought about it carefully. Although he had the support of Qincang School, he couldn't rely on it for everything. To prevent Taihao from using unscrupulous means out of humiliation, he made some concessions and agreed to the request.
In another two days, it would be the day of the battle.
Dan Huizhen said, "I don't doubt my husband's ability. However, I've seen many of the means that my husband used last time. This time, I'll definitely be on guard. My husband must be careful. "
Jiang Zheng said calmly, "Don't worry, Madam. If the opponent is powerful, I won't force myself."
Last time, Taihao School seemed to want to save some face, so they didn't send a third stage cultivator here. This time, it might be different. Although he was confident, if he really met a strong opponent, he wouldn't risk his life for it. He would just think of a way to win it back later.
While the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard a dragon's roar in the clouds. They looked up and saw an ink-black dragon flying over with a handsome cultivator standing on it. Dan Huizhen said, "My husband, it seems that Junior Brother Wei is here."
Jiang Zheng looked from afar. Sure enough, it was Wei Zihong. After looking for a while, he revealed a surprised expression. When the ink-black dragon landed, he took a few steps forward and asked, "Junior Brother, have you cultivated the Yuanying Dharma body?"
Wei Zihong raised his hands and bowed, laughing loudly, "I've Just Now built the Dharma body a few days ago. I heard that Senior Brother is going to battle, so I rushed over to help."
At this moment, in the Upper Extreme Hall of Qincang School, Zhang Yan, Qi Yuntian and Huo Xuan were sitting together in a discussion.
Qi Yuntian said, "Yesterday, a letter came from Mount Li. Spiritual Master Yuling has already set the date of ascension and invited all sects to pay her respects."
He looked at Zhang Yan and said, "With the foundation of Yuxiao school, to send a spiritual master to ascend, the price they have to pay is not small. Junior Brother's plan has succeeded."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "The reason why Zhenren Yuling invited us to attend the ceremony is to ensure that her disciples won't suffer a calamity after she leaves. But as long as this spiritual master is willing to leave, the rest is a small matter. "
Qi Yuntian also said, "That's right. Leaving the Sect Master of Mount Li in this world is too much of a variable. If we can send her away, it will be beneficial for our arrangements." He paused and said, "I wonder when Tao and Mi will be able to cultivate their skills back?"
Zhang Yan thought for a while and said, "With the elixir jade from Qincang School, there are about 34 years left. But during this period of time, we can use it to refine the formation map. The next time we set up the formation on the sea, it will be a few times stronger than before."
Qi Yuntian nodded and said, "I'll have to trouble Junior Brother Zhang to take care of this place."
He turned to look at Huo Xuan and said, "Junior Brother Huo, can you control the thirty-six caves as you wish?"
Huo Xuan shook his head and said, "I'm still not mature enough."
This magical weapon was not refined by him. If he wanted to unleash its true power, he would need to at least reach the second stage of the Elephant Realm.
Qi Yuntian thought for a while and said, "Let's put the North Underworld Demon Court aside for now. We will deal with it when there is a chance in the future."
Originally, he wanted to use the thirty-six caves to suppress the spiritual opportunity of the North Underworld when Yu Xiao was once again restrained by Tao and Mi, and find a way to destroy the demon court in the continent. But from the looks of it, it was still too early, and by the time Huo Xuan could use the thirty-six caves as he wished, it would be at least a few hundred years later. Since that was the case, this matter could only be put aside for now.
