When Liu Yanyi and Tian Kun arrived at the front of the hall, Jing You was already waiting there. He bowed and said with a smile, "Zhenren Liu, Zhenren Tian, Master is waiting for you in the hall."
The two of them bowed and entered the hall. They looked up and saw Zhang Yan sitting on a praying mat, surrounded by Xuan Qi. His mana and spiritual vigor were as deep as the sea and abyss, difficult to fathom. They came up and kowtowed, saying in unison, "The two of us are here to listen to Master's instructions."
Zhang Yan raised his hand and said gently, "Get up, both of you. Since you have become grotto-heavens, there is no need to be so polite in front of me in the future."
After the two of them got up, he shook his sleeves and two rays of purple light fell. He said, "Within a hundred years, there will be a battle between the sects of the nine continents and the Heavenly Ghost Tribe of the Western Desolate Domain. This battle is very important as it concerns whether the sects of the nine continents can establish a stable foundation in this world. These two strands of pure purple spiritual vigor were collected by me from the outer world. I will now give them to the two of you.
I hope that you can contribute to the sect in the future. "Liu Yanyi bowed and said," Thank you, Master, for your generous gift. I will not let you down. "
Tian Kun also bowed. A firm expression appeared on his face as he said in a deep voice, "This disciple will remember."
Zhang Yan smiled and nodded. He flicked his finger and a ray of spiritual light flew up to the top of the hall and condensed into a map that covered the top of the wall. He said, "Although the Cold Jade Ocean Province was conquered by the Qincang School, there are still many demons and monsters outside who are not willing to be disciplined. They still worship the Ming family as their master. Previously, in order to build the mountains, rivers, and earth, as well as to refine the cauldrons and altars, all the Zhenren of the sects had their duties and had no time to care about them. Since the two of you have succeeded, go out of the sect and clean them up."
Liu Yanyi and Tian Kun looked up and saw that the various factions on the map were glowing with different colors. The Cold Jade Ocean Continent was golden, while the surrounding areas were greyish-white. However, there were a few areas that were crimson red, like fresh blood. It was obvious that they were hostile.
They knew in their hearts that when a cultivator first formed a Grotto-Heaven, it was the time when their Qi activity was abundant. It was convenient for them to work for the sect. Not only was it a great opportunity for him to gain merit for the sect, but he could also familiarize himself with the various cultivation methods and supernatural powers he possessed through battle. This was his master's intentional care, and it wasn't a difficult task. They all said, "Disciple obeys Master's command."
In Daylight Hall, Huo Xuan looked in the direction of Duzhen Hall and sighed with emotion. "Duzhen Hall Master's two disciples have succeeded at the same time. It's truly the fortune of the sect, and it's truly worthy of celebration. My Daylight Hall can't fall too far behind."
At this moment, Han Zaiyang and Du Yunzhan were standing beside him. Just Now, the three of them were discussing who they should support next.
Han Zaiyang said, "Among all the disciples in the hall, only Du De has done enough. It's just that his lifespan is coming to an end. If he doesn't succeed this time, he won't have another chance. "
Du Yunzhan said in a low voice, "If he doesn't succeed, it's fine. But if he uses both the Yin and Yang Qi, it might hinder others."
Han Zaiyang sighed softly. Du De had chosen a medium method, but he still hadn't succeeded. The chances were slim, and if he didn't succeed, he might not be able to get the precious materials back. It had to be known that the external medicines that could be used in the Mountain and Sea Realm hadn't been found yet, and the more he used, the less he could get. It was indeed possible that he might hinder others.
He didn't say anything. He only looked at Huo Xuan.
Huo Xuan pondered for a moment, then said, "Among the top ten disciples of that generation, other than Senior Brother Qi, Junior Brother Du De's qualifications were the highest. He had been silent for hundreds of years, but he broke through in one day. We should give him this chance. "
Enlightened Du cupped his hands and said seriously, "Hall Master, please be careful."
As the Enlightened Du of the Du clan, he also hoped that one of the younger generation would have a Paradise to support the clan. But in his opinion, Du De didn't have much hope. He would rather give the opportunity to other clans than owe this favor.
The disciples of the aristocratic families would marry each other. One's glory was glory, and one's loss was loss. Even if one generation didn't leave the Paradise, as long as he was still alive, he would still have a chance in the future.
If Su Mo hadn't insisted on taking Peng Wenyin as his disciple, the Su clan wouldn't have had any outstanding disciples to support the clan. In addition, they didn't have time to make funeral arrangements when they died. Otherwise, the Su clan wouldn't have declined so quickly.
Huo Xuan knew that his position as Hall Master was not as stable as Zhang Yan. There were many reasons for this. If Du De still failed despite his full support, it would be a big blow to his prestige. But he was a man who cherished old friendships, so he was willing to give Du De a chance. He said, "Enlightened Masters, there's no need to say anything more. I have my own plans."
Du and Han saw this and didn't try to persuade him anymore.
But although they didn't approve of Huo Xuan's actions, they didn't have any resentment. It wasn't a bad thing to have a Hall Master who cared about relationships.
After Huo Xuan made his decision, he didn't talk about this matter anymore. He changed the topic. "Just Now, I seem to see the Qi of the Mysterious Essence Water Pill?"
Du Yunzhan said, "Hall Master didn't see wrongly. That is indeed the Mysterious Essence Water Pill."
Huo Xuan was somewhat puzzled. "Sect Master seems to have taken care of Hall Master Du Zhen's eldest disciple a lot. In the past, he seemed to have passed on the Northern Underworld True Water. Do you two Enlightened Masters know why?"
Han Zaiyang said, "This involves a cause and effect."
Du Yunzhan said in a low voice, "Hall Master only asked us. Even if the Enlightened Masters knew about this matter, they wouldn't mention it in front of others."
Huo Xuan said, "I'd like to hear the details."
It wasn't that he really wanted to know about this matter, but after Liu Yanyi became a Grotto-Heaven, they would have to interact with her in the future. If there was any taboo cause and effect on her, it would be better for them to take note of it in advance.
Han Zaiyang said, "This matter actually involves a lot. Hall Master should know that our Qincang School was extraordinarily powerful under the management of the fourth generation's sect master for six thousand years. The sect's strength far surpassed Yuxiao and Shaoqing sects."
Huo Xuan nodded and said, "The fourth generation's sect master could have ascended, but he stayed in the lower realm for the sake of the sect's survival. It's really respectable and lamentable."
Han Zaiyang said, "The fourth generation's sect master often lowered his status to guide the sect's disciples. Sometimes, he even sent his clone out to travel the nine continents to search for those with outstanding aptitudes. It was also because of this that there were many talents in the sect at that time."
Huo Xuan sighed in his heart. If a Perfected Mortal Metamorphosis no longer pursued the Fruit of Dao and focused on guiding the disciples, it was no wonder that there were so many talents in the Qincang School that day. He believed that even if he could cultivate to this stage, he wouldn't be able to achieve this.
Han Zaiyang continued, "At that time, there were three people in the sect who had the potential to ascend. The previous generation's sect master was one, the previous Hall Master Du Zhen was another, and there was a female Perfected Person called Yao Xueyin. Her seniority was above these two."
Huo Xuan pondered for a while and said, "I've seen this Perfected Person's name in the Grotto-Heaven Records of the past generations in the sect, but if it's like what the two Perfected Persons said, why isn't she famous?"
Han Zaiyang said, "This is the reason. At that time, the fourth generation's sect master knew that his time was coming, and he intentionally chose this Perfected Person Yao to be the next sect master. He had already written a golden edict, and after the ceremony, he could inherit the position of sect master. But before that day, the previous sect master found her cave abode. It was said that the previous sect master expressed his ambition to expand the sect, and said that he intended to imitate the fourth generation's sect master and guard the sect in the future."
At this moment, Du Yunzhan continued, "He said that Perfected Person Yao was moved by his heroic spirit, and personally went to the fourth generation's sect master. After a master-disciple discussion, he removed the golden edict, removed his position as the Upper Extreme Hall's vice hall master, and willingly gave up the sect master's position."
Han Zaiyang shook his head and said, "This matter was originally a secret, but I don't know how it was leaked later. When Hall Master Du Zhen found out, he immediately mocked the previous sect master as nothing more than a vile person."
Du Yunzhan said indifferently, "This matter is not surprising. At that time, there were still a few people eyeing the sect master's position. If Perfected Person Yao didn't give up, naturally no one could compete with her. But with such a retreat, others naturally saw an opportunity. It's very likely that after those few people found out about the matter, they intentionally released the news. But the previous sect master's methods were extraordinary, and they were all successfully suppressed by him."
Huo Xuan changed his mind. This Perfected Person Yao didn't ascend in the end. This was probably not because of his aptitude, but because he could only cultivate and lacked external objects.
Even if in the history of Qincang School, most of the people who ascended should be the sect master, and slightly less so the Hall Master of Du Zhen Hall. This was because all the rare external drugs in the sect were nominally under the control of the three hall masters.
He asked, "So, this eldest disciple of Hall Master Du Zhen has a deep relationship with Perfected Person Yao?"
Han Zaiyang said, "It is Perfected Person Yao's reincarnation."
Huo Xuan nodded slightly. Sect Master Qin took care of him several times, and it must be because of this reason. Originally, the position of sect master should have been obtained by this Perfected Person Yao, and it could be said that because of this, his path of ascension was cut off. This karma could not be said to be small.
At the same time, he also knew why no one in the sect mentioned this matter. It was a taboo for the venerables.
Including Qin Mobai, Qin Yu, Yan Changsheng, Li Gezhang, Mu Shoushan, these extremely important Grotto-Heaven cultivators could all be said to be Qin Qinggang's disciples. Even if they thought that their master really owed someone, they would not say it out loud.
However, he had a doubt in his heart, and he said, "After all, the fifth generation sect master did not stay in the lower bound like the fourth generation sect master. If there really was a promise, then it should be like a mountain. But if there was a breach of the promise, it should be hindered in Dao cultivation. But in the end, he still successfully ascended, and it seems like he was not affected much. Maybe there is some other reason behind this."
He thought about it again and said, "This Perfected Person Yao's reincarnation is actually a disciple of Hall Master Du Zhen. Could it be that she has no disciples?"
Han Zaiyang replied, "There are a few. Later on, when the expedition to the Northern Underworld was launched, they either died in battle or went missing."
Du Yunzhan snorted and said coldly, "A few of Perfected Person He's disciples ended up like this. It looks similar, but their cultivation was too low, so no one cared about them."
Han Zaiyang sighed and said, "Perhaps it is just a coincidence. What happened in the past, whether it is true or false, whether it is true or false, whether it is true or false, whether it is true or false, whether it is true or not, who can say for sure. However, Perfected Person Sect Master felt that his branch owed this Perfected Person Yao, so he repeatedly bestowed merit and rewards. This is actually to repay this karma on behalf of the master."
