Yuan Yang Sect, Mingbi Mountain. In the night, a ray of light that looked like a shooting star flew towards a temple on the cliff. The ray of light was so fast that it passed through the temple and merged with Qiao Zhengdao who was sitting in the middle of the temple. *%.
His body trembled slightly and he opened his eyes.
This time, he was asked by his sect to send a clone to investigate a secret that happened in the past. This trip was not in vain and he could be considered to have gained something.
A female disciple outside said, "Zhenren Qiao, someone from Jiyue Palace has come to invite you over for a chat."
Qiao Zhengdao said, "I know."
Jiyue Palace was the abode of Zhenren Wen, where the Bright Light Cave was located. Although he and this Zhenren were not master and disciple in name, they were master and disciple in reality. Even though he had become a cave, he did not dare to be negligent. Therefore, he took a short rest and went on a journey towards a floating island in the sky.
After a few thousand feet, the fog in front of him dispersed and revealed a row of cloud stairs. On both sides of the stairs, there were palace maids on flying boats with big lights and bright pearls, illuminating the night sky.
In the midst of the colorful clouds, there was a small mountain and in front of it was a bamboo arch bridge. From afar, it looked exquisite but in reality, it was quite big, big enough to cross a whale.
When he arrived here, out of respect, he stopped flying and landed on the bridge. A beautiful lady with snow-white skin came up and said, "Palace Master and Zhenren Wu are already waiting inside, please come in, Zhenren Qiao."
Qiao Zhengdao thought to himself, "So Zhenren Wu is here too, then it must be for that matter."
After crossing the bridge, he passed through a sea of jasper flowers and arrived at a palace with embroidered curtains. He saw a big gauze curtain hanging above, from which came the sound of melodious music, and there were hundreds of women dancing to the music.
When he was outside the tent, he heard a voice from inside, "Is it the Righteous Path?"
He answered and entered the tent. He bowed and said, "Disciple greets the two Zhenrens."
Zhenren Wen said happily, "You came at the right time. This song is a new composition by Junior Apprentice Sister Wu's disciple, Mother Guan. We can enjoy it together. "
Qiao Zhengdao bowed again and sat down on the guest seat. Immediately, a maid came to the table and served a precious spiritual fruit. He watched from the side and did not interrupt.
He knew that although this Enlightened Master had a hobby of listening to music and watching dances, he was not a Daoist Master. However, it was not to enjoy the pleasures of the world, but to hold onto his mortal heart and prevent himself from falling into ruthlessness.
At present, the few Spiritual Masters of the Yuan Yang Sect all had their own preferences.
Moreover, he had just entered the Heavenly Passage, and the cultivation technique he used was of the highest level. It was the time for him to work hard, so there was no need for him to act like this.
When the song ended, Immortal Wen cast a glance at a beautiful woman beside him, and the latter clapped her hands. After all the dancers and musicians left the tent, Enlightened Wen turned around and asked, "Righteous Path, how was your trip? Did you find anything? "
Qiao Zhengdao bowed and said, "I was about to report to you, Zhenren. I have indeed found some clues on this trip."
Sage Wu was surprised and said, "Oh, you really found it. Does Sect Leader know about it?"
Qiao Zhengdao replied, "We haven't gotten the real results yet. I didn't dare to report this to the Sect Leader. "
After the Yuan Yang Sect established itself, it had been obsessed with the treasures of the Honghe Temple. With the arrival of the great calamity, his desire for it became even more urgent. However, it had searched all the places that should have been searched, including the original small sects of the Honghe Temple. However, it still didn't find any clues.
If it wasn't for the fact that Qu Ruyi, the Sect Leader, believed that the internal strife of the Honghe Temple wasn't done in a hurry, it was impossible that they didn't leave a way out. They probably would have given up on such a move long ago.
After Qiao Zhengdao achieved the Heavenly Passage, he proposed an idea. He thought that the Honghe Temple moved from the West Continent, so the treasure might not be hidden in the East Flower Continent. Perhaps there were some clues left in the West Continent. Therefore, he volunteered to send his avatar to investigate this place. This trip took more than ten years.
"The original mountain of the Honghe Temple has long been submerged in a vast ocean. I searched for a long time, but I couldn't find anything useful. Later, I broke into a secret palace. The owner died early, but there were many talismans left by the people of the same sect. After some deduction and investigation, I think that at least before the West Continent cultivators came east, the Honghe Temple had a small world that was used to store the treasures of the sect, and the entrance talisman was only held by one person."
Sage Wu thought for a while and said, "The secret palace that the righteous people broke into should be the place where the body of an ancestor of the sect stayed. This person must have a high status, or it could be a clue that the Honghe Temple intentionally left for the later generations. So it is not surprising that it could avoid the catastrophe and survive for thousands of years without being damaged."
Then, she looked a little excited and said, "So, Sect Leader Zhenren's guess is correct.
But Sage Wen shook his head and said, "But if there is someone in charge of this sect, why hasn't anyone entered the world to cultivate for so many years? The previous sect master and senior sect master both personally went to the Heaven Mending Pavilion and inquired about the number of small realms that had opened in the past several thousand years. Apart from the changes within the various sects that we had no way of knowing, the rest could be traced back to their roots. They had nothing to do with the Great Unity Monastery.
Qiao Zhengdao said, "I have a question. Did Bu Tian Pavilion only investigate the Donghua Continent, or the nine continents?"
Sage Wen sighed and said, "Of course it was the nine continents. But this also cost the sect more than half of the elixir jade. Because of this, this matter has to be investigated."
Qiao Zhengdao thought for a while and said, "From the letters, the person in charge of the Honghe Temple's talisman weapon might not be a cultivator, but a commoner. I didn't pay much attention to it before. Maybe it really is possible."
"Not a cultivator?" Sage Wen frowned. Her first thought was that she didn't believe it. How could such a treasure, which was related to the rise and fall of the sect, be in the hands of a commoner? But after thinking about it, she felt that it was really possible.
Wu Zhenren's beautiful eyes flashed as she said, "If that's the case, then it makes sense. But the sea of people is vast, it might not be easier to find. If he accidentally falls into the hands of other sects, then that's even worse."
Qiao Zhengdao said, "It is not easy to find. If the Honghe Temple really left this item in the hands of a commoner, then it must be a noble family. Otherwise, if a commoner was in a chaotic world, he would be like a floating duckweed. He couldn't even protect his family's life, so how could he keep this magical item? This person's clan must have existed since the destruction of the Honghe Temple. As long as we check how many families are still there, if we are lucky, we might be able to find something. "
Sage Wu's beautiful eyes brightened and said, "That is easy. Let me calculate a little and we will know."
She was about to cast a spell when Reverend Wen stopped her and said, "Shimei, slow down. Since this involves Honghe Monastery, we need to be careful. Since it involves the Honghe Temple, we must be careful. "
Sage Wu was also aware of the danger. She put down her hand and said with lingering fear, "Senior sister is right."
If it was just to calculate the affairs of the commoners, it was easy for her. But if the Honghe Temple made some arrangements, not only would she not know the inside story. It was very likely that he would be schemed against, resulting in a loss of lifespan and vitality.
Sage Wen called the beautiful woman in and said a few words to her. The latter understood and left. About a quarter of an hour later, two old women with walking sticks came in. They looked like candles in the wind. Seeing the three Cave Zhenrens here, they couldn't help but be afraid. They went forward and bowed shakily.
Sage Wen said, "I think you know what I want you to do. But it is dangerous. If you are not willing, you can go back."
One of the old women bowed and said, "We don't have long to live. Being able to serve the sect is a good thing that we can't ask for. If something unexpected happens, I only hope that the sect can protect our clan's disciples."
Sage Wen said, "Okay. I agree. "
The old woman bowed again and said, "Thank you, Zhenren."
She knew this Zhenren's temper. She didn't say anything else. She sat down and began to calculate the commoners' families that survived the destruction of the Honghe Temple. After checking, there were more than 70 families. She then calculated them one by one. She wanted to see if they had any opportunities.
Before every calculation, she first wrote down the origin of the family. The process was smooth at first, but when she checked a family, her body suddenly trembled. She revealed a look of disbelief. Then, her body suddenly turned into ashes and scattered in the big tent.
Sage Wen stood up and looked at the paper. He said in a deep voice, "Qinghuai Cao Family!"
Sage Wu's face was filled with anticipation and asked, "Is it this family?"
Sage Wen shook his head and said, "I can't be sure yet. But the karma behind it could turn a Yuanying cultivator into ashes in an instant. It is obvious that it has a great background."
Qiao Zhengdao was still calm and said, "Zhenren, why don't you check the rest of the families first?"
Spiritual Master Wen nodded and called for another old woman. Although the latter had seen the scene just now, she had already cast aside the matter of life and death. With Spiritual Master Wen's help, she did not hesitate and continued to calculate. However, this time, until the end of the investigation of these clans, there were no changes.
Sage Wen no longer hesitated and said to the beautiful woman, "Send the disciples immediately. Remember, don't make any moves. Don't alarm any sects."
The beautiful woman said, "I will arrange it now."
Sage Wen turned around and said, "Please sit down. I believe it won't take long for the news to come. We will know whether it is related to the Honghe Temple."
Sage Wu and Qiao Zhengdao nodded. The Yuan Yang Sect had been searching for this for thousands of years. They were not in a hurry.
The three of them waited for about half a day. Suddenly, they felt a spiritual change in the southwest direction. They were shocked and hurriedly used their mana to look. They saw that near the Cheng River, a small portal was opened. Then, a beam of light climbed up and reached tens of thousands of feet high.
Sage Wu's expression changed and she cried out, "Oh no!"
Before her voice died away, the beam of light suddenly dispersed and turned into more than thirty message talismans, flying in all directions. The direction of the message talismans was the main gate of the various sects.
In Qincang School, in order to deal with the catastrophe, the 14 Dongtian Masters were discussing in the main hall. They felt the change immediately. At the same time, they saw one of the message talismans flying towards the Great Lake of Dragon Lake. Soon, it arrived in front of the main gate.
Meng Zhen turned around and asked, "Master?"
Sect Leader Qin waved his horsetail whisk and in an instant, a message talisman appeared in the hall.
The talisman landed in front of the stairs, and with a flash of light, a daoist wearing a tall hat appeared. He bowed and said, "May I ask if you are the current sect master of the Dark Azure Sect?"
Sect Leader Qin replied, "Yes, who are you?"
The Taoist stood up and said seriously, "I am Ren Hong, the leader of the Honghe Temple."
Although the other party called himself the Sect Master, not a single person stood up. Everyone could tell that it was merely a wisp of Soul Consciousness. As for this person's name, they had heard of him before. He was the last Sect Master of Hong He Temple, and he had passed away several thousand years ago.
Sect Leader Qin asked, "Honored Sir has come here to see me?"
The Taoist said, "The disciples of the Honghe Temple were unfilial, which led to the disaster of our sect. Our orthodoxy was cut off, and no one inherited the precious treasure of our sect. So this time …" At this point, he raised his head and said loudly, "I am willing to offer this to all the people in the world!"
