In front of the azure sky, Han Zaiyang, Du Yunzhan, Peng Wenyin, Lu Junyang, and a few other Qincang School Daoist Dongtian Zhenren were sitting in different places, circulating their techniques to dispel the foul qi and blood left behind by the previous Demon Kings.
Among the Mieming Demon Tribe, only the Luoming Demon Ancestor from ten thousand years ago was the most powerful, followed by the Great Sage Qing Ying who was killed by Zhang Yan not long ago. However, after the latter grew twenty-four wings, he didn't have the time to refine this item, so he came out to fight. Therefore, the qi and blood mixed in was not much better than the previous Demon Kings.
About four to five days later, Han Zaiyang stood up from the formation and went to where Zhang Yan was sitting. He bowed and said, "Perfected One, the qi and blood have been dispelled."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Thank you, Perfected Ones."
The few Perfected Ones bowed.
Han Zaiyang said, "It's nothing. The Frigid Jade Ocean Region is the foundation of our Qincang School. That kind of foul qi can't be left here."
Zhang Yan nodded his head and stood up. He walked to the front of the azure sky and stood still under the clouds. He glanced at it and said, "There is something mysterious within the azure sky. The formation outside cannot be withdrawn. I need to personally go and take a look. I need to trouble the few Spiritual Masters to hold the fort outside."
Han Zaiyang said seriously, "Don't worry, Perfected Ones and I know how dangerous it is. There won't be any mistakes."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly and waved his sleeves. Under the gaze of Han Zaiyang and the other Perfected Ones, he stepped into the azure sky.
Peng Wenyin saw that Zhang Yan's figure had disappeared in a moment. She frowned and said, "I heard that this azure sky is a small world. The Great Sage Qing Ying has been managing it for a long time. Could he have done anything inside?"
Du Yunzhan said in a deep voice, "Du Zhen Hall Master's cultivation is profound. He can even cross the void outside. Even if the azure sky disperses, he can still break through the door and return here."
Lu Junyang didn't say anything. He stood quietly at the side and looked at the rolling azure sky. However, there was an indescribable expression on his face.
Not long after Zhang Yan entered the blue sky, he was first shrouded by a cloud of fog, but after a few breaths, it dissipated. The scenery inside the room appeared before his eyes.
There was actually a vast world here. At this moment, the blue dome of heaven was misty, and there was only a mass of red clouds in the distant sky. It was like the first glimmer of dawn, before the sun rose.
In the middle of the land, there was a giant lotus that was taller than a mountain. It was exactly the same as what he had seen in his Divine Will.
He was not in a hurry to step forward. Instead, he slowly sized up his surroundings.
When a cultivator reached the Phantasm Realm, they could create their own Heavenly Grottoes because he could tell. This place could indeed be considered as a small world, and it wasn't a cave dwelling that was created through teleportation and illusion techniques.
However, there were no traces of divine abilities being moved here, which meant that this world was still in its original state.
He deduced that after the Demon Kings of the Exterminating Ming Clan obtained this item, they only used it as a storehouse. Thus, in the past ten thousand years, there had been no changes.
In truth, the two energies here were split. The five elements were all present, and if one could plant the Spiritual Veins. After such a long time, even if one didn't care about it, one could manage it into a blessed land.
If one went one step further and refined the Heavenly Green Sky, one could control its size as one wished. When one was in danger, one could also hide in it and use it to protect one's life.
He thought to himself, "The Exterminating Ming Clan is limited by their knowledge. They have a treasure mountain in their hands, but they don't know how to use it."
Right at that moment. An old voice came from afar with a hint of disbelief and a hint of surprise, "There is only Yu Qingyan here. This is Yu Qingyan's private vault. Since you are able to enter this place, have you already subdued it?"
Zhang Yan didn't reply and looked over. After a while, he asked calmly, "You are Great Saint Crooked Lotus?"
A cloud of mist floated out from the lotus and formed into a face. He looked at Zhang Yan and couldn't help but reveal a shocked expression.
Different from Gongxi Zao and the rest, as a plant spirit, the first thing he felt wasn't the soaring vital energy on Zhang Yan's body. Instead, it was the huge aura that spread out in all directions. Every breath he took shook this small world. This wasn't something that Great Saint Qing Ying could compare to.
"No wonder Yu Qingjin is in such a hurry to absorb the essence in my body. With such a strong enemy, even if he becomes twenty-four wings and is not far from the Luanming Demonic Ancestor, he is still weaker than this person. I wonder where this person came from. Could it be that the Eastern Wasteland Country has produced another High Priest?"
After thinking for a while, he carefully replied, "I am indeed Crooked Lotus. In front of you, I don't dare to call myself Great Saint."
Zhang Yan said, "I heard that you were defeated by Great Saint Qing Ying a thousand years ago and your whereabouts were unknown. I thought you were long dead, but you were moved here. Great Saint Qing Ying didn't take your life and instead imprisoned you. I think you are of some use to him."
Great Sage Crooked Lotus didn't dare to hide anything and answered honestly, "That's true. I was born with supernatural powers and have the ability to accumulate the world's essence. Yu Qingjin imprisoned me here so that I could be used as a blood medicine at any time."
Saying this, he tried to make his tone as humble as possible and probed, "I wonder if Great Saint can let this little demon out. If you can, this little demon is willing to serve Great Saint as my master."
After being imprisoned for a thousand years, his arrogance as a demon king had long been polished clean. Now, he only wanted to see the light of day again.
The reason he wasn't willing to serve Great Saint Qing Ying was because he knew that whether he was willing or not, Great Saint Qing Ying wouldn't let him out. However, Great Saint Qing Ying wouldn't take his life either.
Zhang Yan faintly smiled and didn't answer him. He used his spiritual energy and glanced down. He saw that below the lotus, there were traces of blood Qi seeping out. Following it down, he saw that there were countless corpses of demons. He instantly understood and said, "You said that you can accumulate spiritual Qi. Looks like you weren't lying."
Great Saint Crooked Lotus said in a self-mocking tone, "I won't hide it from Great Saint Qing Ying. Great Saint Qing Ying sent his clansmen to battle everywhere and buried all the demon corpses in this little demon's roots to replenish his vital energy. However, this wasn't out of kindness. It was just like how humans treat livestock. After they get fat, they will be slaughtered to fill their stomachs. “
Light flashed in Zhang Yan's eyes and he said, "In that case, if you want to strengthen yourself, you need to eat flesh and blood?"
Great Saint Crooked Lotus hesitated for a moment and said, "Great Saint Qing Ying, this little demon has always been clean and pure. I've never eaten humans."
Zhang Yan sneered and said, "That's natural. The human path countries in the world are far away in the Eastern Barren Land. There are many powerful demons in the Northern Chilling Abyss. With your methods, it's easy for you to capture them. It's not that you view the people of the Eastern Barren Land differently. You just don't want to leave what's near at hand for what's far away."
Great Saint Crooked Lotus thought for a moment and said, "This little demon is a demon of plants. If Great Saint Qing Ying doesn't like it, I can tolerate not eating flesh and blood."
He knew that if Great Saint Qing Ying could kill Great Saint Qing Ying, then Great Saint Qing Ying could also kill him. Although not eating flesh and blood would hinder his cultivation, it would only slow him down a little. As a demon of plants, even if he only absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it would be enough to sustain himself.
At this moment, Zhang Yan asked again, "Demons of plants have always lived for a long time. How long have you lived?"
Great Saint Crooked Lotus answered honestly, "I've lived for more than 18,000 years, but I only gained intelligence about 7,000 years ago. Before that, I was muddle-headed and didn't know myself."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "It's been a long time. Let me ask you something. Do you know where the Bright Light Demonic Ancestor of the Annihilating Clan is?"
Great Saint Crooked Lotus became spirited and said, "I happen to know about this. The Bright Light Demonic Ancestor tried to break the world and leave, but he didn't succeed. Later on, he went into hibernation and waited for the day when he recovered his strength. As for where he went into hibernation, I heard that it's somewhere in the southwest. But many years have passed, and I don't know if there were any changes. If you can let me out and summon my old subordinates, there's a 90% chance of finding him. However, the demonic ancestor's ability is earth-shattering. Once he wakes up, I'm afraid I won't be able to deal with him. "
Zhang Yan asked a few more questions in detail, pondered deeply for a moment, and then looked around. When he saw that there was nothing else besides the Bloodstones that were piled up into a mountain, he didn't speak any further with Curved Lotus. He turned around, and a rumble resounded as he flew into the sky.
Great Saint Crooked Lotus couldn't help but be shocked. He clearly saw that Zhang Yan didn't leave through the portal but relied on his physical body to break through the barrier. He thought to himself, "It won't be difficult for someone like him to go beyond the heavens. No wonder he's not afraid of the demonic ancestor."
At the same time, he was very nervous. Even after Zhang Yan left, he didn't say how he was going to deal with him. He really didn't know what was waiting for him.
After Zhang Yan went outside, he ordered Han Zaiyang and the others to disperse. At the same time, he asked someone to invite Meng Zhen over. He said, "There's a demonic ancestor in the Ming Clan called Bright Light. He's the source of the Bright Light Demonic Bird's bloodline. He's still in this world, in the southwest of the Cold Jade Ocean Province. It's only a million miles away from here. Meng Zhen can send a disciple to check first."
Meng Zhen said, "Your Highness, do you want to get rid of this demon?"
Zhang Yan said coldly, "How can I allow someone to sleep next to my bed? Since I've destroyed the Ming Clan, I've already incurred enmity with this demonic ancestor. Instead of waiting for it to wake up and cause trouble for me, I might as well go and kill it first. "
It was actually the most convenient thing to send the Shaoqing Extreme Sword Cultivators. However, the conquest of the Bright Light Tribe was to find a place for the Qincang School to establish its foundation. The subsequent matters should naturally be handled by the cultivators of the Qincang School themselves.
Meng Zhen thought for a moment, then said, "It's better to nip trouble in the bud than to nip it in the bud. However, this is a serious matter, so I'll personally make a trip."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "With Meng Zhen looking for it, the sect can rest assured."
At this point, he solemnly said, "There's one more thing that the Sect Leader, Reverend, is very concerned about. Although the Qincang School has already found a location, the path of cultivation requires external medicine to complement it. The Mountain and Sea Realm and the Nine Prefectures are two different Heavens and Earth, and the Heavenly materials and Earthly treasures are also different. We need to find medicine that can be used as soon as possible. This is of utmost importance. Although I've already sent people out to investigate, it's difficult to find anything in a short time. Meng Zhen, please be careful on this trip. "
Meng Zhen cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "Hall Master Du Zhen, please reply to the Sect Leader, Reverend. This is an important matter for the sect, and disciple will definitely keep it in mind. “
