While Adept Wan was greeting Zhang Yan, Adept Gong and Adept Bai were standing in a hidden pavilion in the mountain gate. They used the formation to look outside and paid extra attention to the conversation between the two.
After hearing Zhang Yan talk about his background, Adept Bai thought for a moment and said, "Qincang School? Have you heard of this sect, Adept Gong? "
Adept Gong thought for a moment and shook his head. "I know of all the branches in the Yuhuan Heavens, but Qincang School has never heard of it. It seems like it is as he said, he came from outside the Yuhuan Heavens."
Adept Bai said in a heavy voice, "This person's cultivation method is profound and unpredictable. It's difficult to distinguish between the far and the far. It doesn't seem like the path of our generation."
Adept Gong agreed and said, "That's right. Last time, it already showed that the Black Stone has a spirit and will choose its own master. However, after this person entered the realm, there was no movement at all. There's clearly something strange about this. It seems that Junior Martial Brother He is right. We can't be careless about this matter. We need to be cautious to prevent the Patriarch's inheritance from falling into the hands of outsiders."
Adept Bai said, "That's right. Otherwise, how can we be worthy of the Patriarch's trust?"
In fact, although the Black Stone didn't want to be taken by others, it might not take the initiative to find its master. Otherwise, why would the Great Underworld Patriarch send people to guard it? They might as well let it go. They didn't even need the fated person to come here to find it. However, due to some reason, the two of them were unwilling to hand over such a divine object, so they tried to find a reason.
Adept Bai said at this moment, "Perhaps we should remind Adept Wan to try to find out what kind of cultivation method this person cultivates. If he is deliberately concealing it, then there's a big problem with his origin."
Adept Gong said with certainty, "Don't worry, Adept Wan has a sense of propriety on such a big matter. We should know what to do."
On the other side, Adept Wan understood that many of his fellow sect members didn't want to see Zhang Yan come into contact with the divine object, so he didn't welcome him to the mountain gate. Instead, he planned to arrange for him to stay outside the sect.
On the way, Zhang Yan had been observing the surrounding scenery. This Xuanhong Heaven was similar to the Mountain and Sea Realm. The land was boundless, and there were stars, sun, and moon in the sky. However, after talking with Adept Wan, he found out that in such a big world, there was only one power, the Luo Mountain Monastery. There were some small sects that had deep ties with the Lower Court Courtyards. He nodded and said, "Using one sect to control the heavens, powerful, and powerful. Your sect leader is indeed worthy of the title 'Heavenly Lord'."
When Adept Wan heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "It's just that my Xuanhong Heaven is not a peaceful place. For example, Esteemed Master Wei Ji of Jiying Tiantian had a grudge with me because of an incident in his early years. This Heavenly Lord is someone who has passed three tribulations, and his cultivation is even higher than the sect leader. Fortunately, there is a formation outside Xuanhong Heaven and the Jade Kun Guard, so he can't enter. However, if Fellow Daoist goes to the outer world in the future and meets cultivators from this world, you must be careful."
In fact, with the Jade Kun Bewildering Formation outside Xuanhong Heaven, the Luo Mountain lineage had no fear of external enemies. Not to mention the fact that they were here under the orders of the Great Underworld Patriarch to guard the Xuan Stone, no one would dare to offend the Patriarch and make things difficult for them. It was precisely because of this that the cultivators in the sect had always been very tough when dealing with outsiders.
But then again, once the Xuan Stone was taken away, it was equivalent to announcing that their duty to guard it was over, and from then on, the two parties would no longer have anything to do with each other.
But for the past million years, this divine object had long been their protective talisman. If it was suddenly gone, who knew how many enemies would appear, and it was very likely to cause a disaster. If they wanted to avoid it, they had to have a powerful cultivator, or use this object to form an alliance with a strong enough external help.
They had long planned for this. Jiwang Tian Lord He Xianyin was someone who had passed three tribulations, and was close to passing four. If the two parties formed an alliance, then they would no longer have to worry about these things. Moreover, with the help of the Xuan Stone, He Xianyin would be able to take that unprecedented step. But the arrival of Zhang Yan had completely disrupted their plans.
Zhang Yan originally wanted to try and ask about the reason for the enmity between the two parties, but Venerable Wan's words were vague. He knew that Venerable Wan was unwilling to talk about it in detail. His eyes flickered slightly. Although there was no clear proof, he could feel that this matter was definitely related to the opportunity left behind by the Great Underworld Patriarch. Thus, he did not pursue the matter any further. He smiled and said, "May I ask who has the highest cultivation in the Yuhuan All-Heavens?"
Enlightened Master Wan replied, "In terms of cultivation, Dao, and cultivation, the Palace Master of the Green Jade Palace is the highest. This senior almighty had already obtained the fruit of Dao long before our heavens were divided and achieved the True Yang realm."
Zhang Yan nodded inwardly when he heard this. There was indeed such a person in the All-Heavens.
Venerable Wan then said, "Every ten thousand years, the Palace Lord of Emerald Jade Palace will hold a sermon. As long as one's cultivation has reached a certain level, they can go and listen to the sermon. At that time, not only our generation, but even the All-Heavens' Heaven Lords will be present. It is one of the three great events of our Yuhuan All-Heavens."
When Zhang Yan heard this, his interest was piqued. He asked, "May I know what are the other two great events?"
Venerable Wan replied, "The other two great events are the Pearl Scattering Banquet and the Feast of Treasures. The Pearl Scattering Banquet is used to promote talented people of the younger generation. The host of this banquet is the Heaven Lord of Yehaitian, Ao Shao. This Heaven Lord is a True Dragon that achieved Dao. It is rumored that he was the mount of a certain Great Virtue, and even the Palace Lord of Emerald Jade Palace is very polite to him.
"As for the Feast of Treasures, it is different. It is set up to make it convenient for the cultivators of the All-Heavens to exchange treasures and external medicines. You can find any precious treasures there. Fellow Daoist has come at the right time. The day of the Feast of Treasures is approaching, and it will only take a few hundred years at most. Fellow Daoist should go and take a look when the time comes. Perhaps you will be able to gain something."
Zhang Yan smiled and nodded. "Since it is a All-Heavens Event, I must go and take a look if I have time."
The two of them talked for a long time. Venerable Wan felt that he had become more familiar with Zhang Yan. He pondered for a while and asked tentatively, "May I know which technique did you cultivate from the Ancestral Master?" After saying that, he quickly added, "If it is not convenient, just pretend that I never asked."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "There's nothing I can't say. There are many techniques passed down by the Ancestral Master, and all of them are profound and mysterious. However, my aptitude is average, so it's difficult for me to comprehend more. I've only cultivated one of them, and it's called the Nine Numbers Taishi Spiritual Treasure Mystic True Scripture. I wonder if Fellow Daoist has any?"
"Oh, it is the Nine Numbers True Scripture?"
After hearing this, Venerable Wan's eyes unconsciously widened. He looked at Zhang Yan with a trace of admiration and said with emotion, "No wonder you came to my Xuanhong Heaven. This scripture is not something that ordinary people can cultivate."
It must be known that although some techniques are extremely superior, they may not be very compatible with the person who cultivates them. When one first enters the path of cultivation, one may not feel anything, but once one cultivates to a high level, one's progress will be very slow and it will be difficult to move forward. This is because one has gone astray from the beginning, and later on, they will deviate further and further. At this point, it will be impossible to turn back and re-cultivate. If one can comprehend the Nine Numbers True Scripture early on, then one can deduce the cultivation method. This way, it will be more compatible with one's body, and there will be no need to worry.
However, this cultivation technique was not that easy to cultivate. It was not that no one in the Xuan Hong Tian Sect had tried it in the past, but most of their achievements were extremely limited. In the Luo Mountain Monastery, other than passing down the "Nine Numbers True Scripture", the Great Underworld Patriarch had also left behind more than ten mysterious techniques. Since there was a better choice in front of him, why should he take this rugged path? As a result, over time, this method was no longer of interest.
Venerable Wan was amazed. This person can cultivate this technique, how is his talent mediocre? He is clearly a genius! Thinking about it, how can a person who can obtain the opportunity left behind by the Patriarch be simple? Perhaps it is because of this that the Patriarch values him.
When Zhang Yan saw that they were talking about this topic, he also took the opportunity to ask about the cultivation technique of the Luo Mountain Monastery in detail. However, he found that there were no three scriptures here, and all he knew was the "Nine Numbers True Scripture". Although there are many other cultivation techniques, most of them are of the water attribute, completely unlike the Qincang School, which has all five skills. He vaguely realized that this sect probably did not obtain the true inheritance of the Patriarch.
The two of them chatted along the way, and not long after, they arrived at a beautiful island that was surrounded by mountains and faced the sea. Outside the island, there were many dragons soaring in the clouds and swimming in the sky. The tide below was high, like hills rising out of the water. The waves surged over, causing jade waves to splash, and from time to time, a rainbow-colored ring of light could be seen.
Venerable Wan said, "This is Starry Rainbow Island, a place where my Xuan Hongtian welcomes our distinguished guests. I wonder if Fellow Daoist is satisfied?"
Zhang Yan glanced over and saw that this place was rich with spiritual opportunity. It was a good place to cultivate, but he knew that the so-called distinguished guest in his words was just a joke. If the Luo Mountain Monastery really valued his arrival, then they should at least welcome him inside the monastery, and blocking the door was not proper etiquette. However, he had no intention to fuss about this, so he smiled and said, "This place is very good, thank you, Fellow Daoist."
Venerable Wan's heart relaxed, and he said, "Then Fellow Daoist, please rest here for the time being. I need to report your arrival to the sect. I'll come and visit you again in a few days. "
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Do as you wish, Fellow Daoist."
Venerable Wan bowed, then turned around and flew into the sky.
Zhang Yan descended and landed in the pavilion on the peak. Suddenly, there was a flash of light, and a spirit appeared. It was a middle-aged scholar, and he said respectfully, "I'm the manager of this place, do you have any orders, Esteemed Guest?"
Zhang Yan glanced at him and said, "You heard that Fellow Daoist Wan once said that you have a Heavenly Local Annals here, can I have a look?"
The middle-aged scholar hesitated, but he did not dare to refuse, and said, "Yes, I'll go get it now."
After the person left, Zhang Yan looked at the sky. From the moment he entered the world, he felt that someone was spying on him. He smiled faintly, and with a wave of his sleeve, a ball of Qi surged and covered his figure.
At the same time, Venerable Gong and Venerable Bai felt their vision blur, and they could no longer see anything. They frowned unconsciously.
Venerable Gong said in a deep voice, "This person's Qi is obscure, it's really hard to see through."
Venerable Bai said, "No matter how capable he is, as long as we follow Venerable He's method and set up a few tests, he will naturally reveal himself."
Venerable Gong looked over and said, "Oh, Venerable Bai, do you have an idea?"
Venerable Bai chuckled and said, "There's no harm in doing this first …" He transmitted his voice over, and Venerable Gong repeatedly nodded and said, "Alright, we'll do as Venerable Bai says first!"
