Gong Liang Chu stared at the Great Spirit Stele with an expression of shock and disbelief.
He had heard that Zhang Yan's magic power was tyrannical. Even though he had only entered the grotto-heaven for two hundred years, no one in the same generation could compare to him. He had even defeated opponents who had entered the Dao much earlier than him in fights of magic power.
Just Now, he had also defeated the illusion of Zhang Yan's former opponent, Huang Yugong. Even if there was a gap between them, it shouldn't be too big, so he wanted to test his opponent's methods. Who knew that the moment he used his dharma, he would be hit by the overwhelming profound energy and be scattered before he could react.
This kind of magic power was not only unrivaled among his peers, but even among the second stage cultivators he knew, there weren't many who could compare to him.
He couldn't help but look at Spiritual Master Wei, as if asking if there was anything wrong with the Great Spirit Stele.
Spiritual Master Wei said faintly, "Fellow Daoist Gong Liang, there's no need to worry about it. A few Daoists have already fought against Zhang Yan's illusion, and you weren't the only one who suffered."
Gong Liang Chu was a bit shocked, but at the same time, he rejoiced in other people's misfortune. He smiled and said, "I see. Qincang School's Hall Master Du Zhen is indeed easy to deal with."
Spiritual Master Wei asked, "Fellow Daoist Gong Liang, do you still want to try?"
Gong Liang Chu tossed a jade box over and said, "It's a pity that I only have these pill jades. I'll have to compete another day."
He looked at the Great Spirit Stele and clicked his tongue. "But this treasure is really magical. Even my Nether Spring Sect doesn't have it."
Spiritual Master Wei frowned and said, "Fellow Daoist Gong Liang, you're overpraising me. This treasure is a bit mysterious, but it's nothing compared to your sect's Nether Spring."
Gong Liangchu grinned and said, "There's no need for Wise Master Wei to be so modest. Every transcendent artifact has its own unique uses. In terms of battle formations, defensive true treasures and killing true treasures are naturally superior. However, in terms of sharpening one's techniques and evolving divine abilities, your sect's transcendent artifact is unmatched."
Spiritual Master Wei shook his head. "I'm afraid Fellow Daoist Gong Liang is wrong."
Gong Liang Chu was surprised. "Oh, what is wrong?"
Reverend Wei said, "My Yuan Yan Grand Spirit Stele is not that rare either. Even if it has such an effect, it's not like there isn't a similar method in the world. According to what I know, that Shaoqing has a sword perception simulation method. In a fight of magical power between fellow disciples, we only need to use the divine intent in the sword to verify it. That's no different from a real fight. Wouldn't it be much better than my magical weapon? "
Gong Liangchu nodded and admitted, "What you said makes sense. However, there's no need for Sage Wei to belittle yourself. These two methods could only be said to have their own strengths. When the Shaoqing Sword Sense clashed, it would similarly damage one's magic power. It was just that the recovery of magic power was slightly faster. In fact, if one was not careful, they would also be injured. Furthermore, this could only be used for sparring within the same sect, and not against external enemies. Otherwise, there would be no need for them to go out and challenge their opponents. The Great Spirit Stele was the opposite. In the end, entering this place wasn't a true fight. Many of the methods he normally didn't dare to use were used to his heart's content, not using pill jades. It can be said that there is no loss to our generation. "
Dao Master Wei couldn't help but laugh. "Fellow Daoist, do you think that you gave too many pill jades? Are you a little reluctant?
Gong Liangchu laughed and said meaningfully, "What are you talking about? Fellow Daoists from various sects could come here to temper themselves. What's a few pill jades? Not only do I not feel that it's not worth it, I feel that your esteemed sect is asking for too little."
Dao Master Wei's heart shook slightly. At this moment, a maid came over and said, "Dao Master, Daoist Huan of Huncheng Sect is here."
Gong Liangchu bowed. "Since Dao Master has a guest, I won't stay here any longer. Farewell." Even though he had suffered a crushing defeat in the Great Spirit Stele, he didn't seem to care about it at all. Just like that, he waved his sleeves and left elegantly.
Dao Master Wei sent him off with his eyes. He looked at Gong Liangchu's back and thought to himself, 'Did this person come here to try on his own, or did he come under the instructions of the Netherworld Spring Sect? Or both? '
As he pondered, a young man who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old walked over. The gentle Daoist with snow-white eyebrows walked over. When he got closer, he cupped his hands and said, "Daoist Wei, I'm here again."
Dao Master Wei smiled and said, "Do you still want to compete with Dao Master Yan this time?"
Dao Master Huan said softly, "Of course." He took out a jade urn from his sleeve and handed it over. Then, he walked into the stele with a solemn expression.
Dao Master Wei stood on the spot and didn't move. After about four hours, the stele shook slightly and flashed with light. Dao Master Huan retreated from inside and closed his eyes. He seemed to be digesting what he had learned from the fight Just Now.
After a long time, he opened his eyes and said self-deprecatingly, "I didn't expect to lose again."
Including this time, it was his fourth time coming here. Each time, he fought with Yan Changsheng's illusion, but he didn't win even once.
Dao Master Wei couldn't help but ask, "Why did Fellow Daoist choose this person?"
Spiritual Master Huan smiled and said, "I admire Spiritual Master Yan the most in the Xuanmen Sect. I've seen all of his techniques, but I can't beat him when it comes to a real fight. He can help me train more than anyone else."
After he sighed, he asked with a smile, "When I came in, I saw Dao Master Gong Liangchu go out. Who did he choose?"
Dao Master Wei curled his lips and said, "He won against Huang Yugong, but lost to Zhang Yan."
Dao Master Huan smiled and said, "He chose Hall Master Du Zhen, but he was unlucky."
Dao Master Wei agreed with him.
It wasn't that she didn't think Zhang Yan couldn't choose to fight, but that his magic power was too strong and his escape technique was brilliant. Illusions didn't fear death, so as long as you couldn't escape, you would be crushed once your magic power was used up. It wouldn't be of any use in training.
She believed that after Gong Liangchu fought with him once, he wouldn't choose this person as his opponent again.
Dao Master Huan and Dao Master Wei had a good relationship, but because the sect still had matters to attend to, it wasn't convenient for him to stay. After a few words, he bid farewell and left.
After he left, Dao Master Wei walked in front of the Great Spirit Stele and waved his sleeve. There seemed to be a ripple on the stele, and after a while, Gong Liangchu's figure appeared. Not only that, he also replayed the battle between him, Huang Yugong, and Zhang Yan's illusions.
The time used for the battle within the tablet inscription was exactly the same as in the outside world. Those who entered to battle would obviously be reflected by the Spiritual Tablet as well. However, those who came here should be aware of this. Therefore, they would hold back and not reveal all of their techniques.
After watching for a long time, Dao Master Wei felt tired all over. He knew he couldn't continue, or his spirit would be damaged, so he quickly stopped.
However, these scenes weren't too important to her, so it didn't matter if she watched or not. What she cared about was something else. The more people who fought in the stele, the more profound their skills were, and the more powerful the magic treasure would be. A great calamity was coming. In the future, if the sect encountered great danger, she only needed to use the Origin Clam Gate's spell to activate it, and it would display unimaginable power.
After Dao Master Wu left the Donglai Continent, he hurriedly flew back and met up with Dao Master Zhao in the Dongsheng Continent. Because he was carrying a great treasure, he was afraid that something might happen on the way back, so he didn't say much. He only said a few simple words, then turned back in the direction of the sect. After a few days, he successfully returned to the Ping Du Sect.
Dao Master Wu came to the Great Pagoda Pavilion, his body swayed, and he arrived at the top of the pavilion. He bowed and said, "Sect Master Dao Master. I didn't fail the mission, and I've already brought the treasure back. "
There was a flash of light in the main seat of the shrine, and a tall, handsome young Daoist walked out. He had phoenix eyes and sharp eyebrows, and he was handsome and heroic. Upon closer inspection, his face was somewhat similar to Qin Yu's. It was the Ping Du Sect's current sect master, Qi Hongchan. He looked over and said, "Oh? Dao Master Wu's magic power seems to have improved? "
Dao Master Wu hurriedly said, "This is because of the light of that magic treasure."
He recounted the journey in detail, and in the end, he rejoiced, "It just so happens that this treasure was obtained by Qincang School Dao Master Zhang first. If it had fallen into the hands of cultivators from other sects, I'm afraid it would have been difficult to get it back so easily."
Qi Hongchan's eyes moved slightly. He laughed and said, "It seems that I owe Fellow Daoist Qincang School a big favor this time, but it doesn't matter. When the great calamity comes, I will definitely return it to him."
Dao Master Wu said, "Sect Master Dao Master is right."
At this moment, Dao Master Zhao said, "Dao Master Wu, the sect master is here, why not quickly retrieve the treasure?"
Dao Master Wu hurriedly said, "Please forgive me, Sect Master. I need to summon the Dharma spirit to retrieve the treasure. "
However, Qi Hongchan reached out to stop him, and said, "Wait."
Dao Master Wu's movements paused, and he looked over in confusion.
Qi Hongchan raised his head and looked around. He had a feeling that when the magic treasure arrived here, it faintly resonated with the pagoda. He also had a premonition that if he summoned this place here, it was very likely that there would be some changes that he couldn't stop. After a moment of silence, he said, "You can't take it out here again. Come with me."
He rolled up his sleeve, and a wave of magic power enveloped them. Dao Master Wu and Dao Master Zhao couldn't resist it. The scenery in front of them changed, and they were inside a secret cave.
Because Ping Du Sect had not been established for long, and they relied entirely on the Hidden Appearance Pagoda to cultivate, there had never been an ascended Dao Master. Naturally, no one had opened up a small world.
However, they blazed a different path, and created a secret cave under the spiritual opportunity of the earth vein. This place wasn't simple, however. It was in the gap between the mountain gate's great formation, and people who didn't know what was going on would be surrounded and attacked by the formation no matter where they went. Even if the great formation was broken, they would use the spiritual opportunity to go somewhere else, and wouldn't be found by outsiders.
Qi Hongchan said, "Dao Master Wu, you can take it out now."
Daoist Master Wu excused himself and sat down cross-legged. Not long after, his Dharma Spirit walked out. Then, a bead slowly squeezed out from between his eyebrows. After a few breaths, it completely fell outside.
However, it was unknown whether it was because it had met with the Dharma spirit, or because it had arrived here, but it seemed to have produced some kind of unfathomable change. It swayed in mid-air, and not only did it not land, it flew towards Qi Hongchan, who had the most profound cultivation here.
Qi Hongchan focused his gaze, and after looking for a while, he retracted his Qi dynamic and said, "Dao Master Zhao, this is a rare opportunity. You can take it and comprehend it."
Dao Master Zhao also felt an indescribable attraction from it. After receiving the sect leader's permission, he bowed, then sat down and released his Dharma spirit. With just a thought, the pill pearl suddenly flew in, and the Dharma spirit also swayed, then turned into light and returned to his corporeal body.
In an instant, he felt as if he had fallen into an indescribably mysterious place. Wonderful music rang in his ears, and in front of him, there were countless Dharma spirits of different shapes and sizes flying past. The Dharma spirit in his body seemed to have truly merged with his corporeal body, and there was no longer any separation.
Finally, he woke up from his deep meditation, and to his surprise, he had broken through another barrier, and his mana was more than a level stronger than before. He let out a long sigh, bowed, and said, "Thank you, Sect Leader, for fulfilling my wish."
Qi Hongchan smiled and said, "Dao Master Zhao has sat for nine days, and it seems that you have benefited greatly."
Dao Master Zhao said in surprise, "Nine days?"
He couldn't help but be amazed. Just Now, it felt like only an instant had passed. He shook his head, and with a thought, the Dharma spirit appeared, and then he sent the pearl out again.
This time, Qi Hongchan didn't refuse, but he didn't release the Dharma spirit. He just looked at it indifferently, then put the pearl away into the space between his eyebrows. He slowly closed his eyes, and just stood there.
Master Wu and Master Zhao both watched with a trace of nervousness.
Before long, Qi Hongchan opened his eyes, but his cultivation didn't improve as usual. Instead, there was a strange look in his eyes, and he sighed, "So that's how it is."
Master Wu didn't dare to disturb him. After waiting for a long time, he saw that Qi Hongchan's expression had gradually returned to normal, and then he carefully asked, "Sect Leader? How are you? "
Qi Hongchan looked at the two of them and said, "I'm fine. Although you've brought this treasure back, it hasn't fallen into my hands yet."
Master Wu and Master Zhao didn't understand. They looked at each other, and Master Wu couldn't help but ask, "Sect Leader, what do you mean?"
Qi Hongchan said, "This pearl's original body isn't in this world, and it doesn't look like what we saw, but it left behind a guiding Qi, like a floating boat casting an anchor on the sea. Only if it comes from the same source can it be guided, and outsiders can't get their hands on it. As for its true location, it still remains in the unfathomable other world. We need to trace it back to its source to find its original body. If this pearl is a well, then we've only found the mouth of the well, but we haven't been able to extract the water. "
Master Wu suddenly said, "No wonder Master Zhang and Master Tao couldn't take the treasure when they saw it appear. So that's the reason."
However, Master Zhao said, "Sect Leader, how can we find the original body?"
Qi Hongchan said, "It's not that easy. Not only do we need to borrow the Hidden Appearance Pagoda, but we also need to use the light of the stars, the sun, and the moon. I'll personally oversee the pagoda and combine this pearl with it. But to do this, we must first open the great formation of the mountain gate. When the time comes, it will cause quite a commotion, and the sects will feel it. It's not a good thing."
The two of them became serious. Without the great formation to protect the mountain, Pingdu Sect would have no means of protection. Although the sects might not attack, it was very possible that they would secretly cause trouble. They knew very well that if they were on the opposing side, as long as there was a chance, they would think of a way to destroy this matter and not let Pingdu Sect smoothly grow stronger.
Master Wu said, "What should we do? Please tell us, Sect Leader. "
Qi Hongchan's expression was calm. He said, "It's not difficult. Send a letter to Qincang School and ask a few Zhenrens to come and protect us. Then we'll be safe."
