After Zhang Yan explained many things to Peng Xiang, he sat there to adjust his magic power and circulate his qi.
Just Now, he had just gone through a great battle and killed many enemies. He had especially defeated Master Xuan Hong in the end. He had used up a lot of his magic power and was prepared to explore the mystic stone after his essence and qi foundation had recovered.
After a few days, he returned to his perfect state and went to the restrictive formation in the hall.
At this time, a servant came in and reported, "Master, the two sect masters have come out of seclusion. Master, do you want to see them?"
Zhang Yan thought for a moment and said, "Go and invite these two here."
The servant outside the door answered and left.
Not long after, Daoist Tong Guang and Guo Juying came together. After greeting each other, Zhang Yan invited the two of them to take a seat and said, "Fellow Daoists, have you ever considered moving your sect to Black Flood Heaven?"
Daoist Tong Guang didn't answer immediately but Guo Juying said without hesitation, "My Mi Ze Sect is willing."
Guo Juying and the upper echelons of the sect were trapped in the Ruined Lands for a thousand years. After returning to Sinful Heaven, they found out that the sect was occupied by others. Although they took it back, they still faced many threats and weren't truly safe until now. In his opinion, it was better to move to Xuan Hong Heaven. There were many blessed lands of spirit opportunity here and the restrictive formation was complete. Whether it was the current or future development of the sect, it was much better than the original place.
Zhang Yan saw that Daoist Tong Guang seemed to be considering and said, "Daoist Tong Guang, I know that Tanbo Sect stands aloof from worldly affairs and I don't need your sect to fight for me. I just want to protect the ancestral master's teaching grounds. Luo Mountain Monastery isn't the orthodoxy of the ancestral master and doesn't deserve this title. But your two sects are quite suitable."
Guo Juying also persuaded, "Fellow Daoist, even if you don't look for trouble with others, it doesn't mean that others won't look for trouble with you. Can't you see that Yu Huan is about to cause a huge change in the Myriad Heavens? Even if your sect doesn't want to get involved, in terms of stability, where else can compare to Xuan Hongtian?"
Daoist Tongguang pondered for a while longer before nodding. "Alright, I'll make a trip back to Desolate Heaven and move my sect here. However, I'll have to trouble you in the future."
Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "We are from the same sect, how can we disturb each other."
Guo Juying said, "Zhenren Zhang, I recently received a letter saying that the Jin Di sect has appeared again in the days that I left. Fortunately, I have already instructed the disciples not to go out on their own before I return, so I did not fall into their trap." At this point, he rebuked, "This person appears frequently and seems to be everywhere. His actions are even more despicable than the Luo Mountain Monastery!"
Although the Mount Luo Monastery looked down on "collateral sects", they never interfered. If one ignored their attitude, it could be said that they lived in harmony with each other. However, the Jindi Sect's actions were very hateful and hostile. They used all kinds of methods to force others to accept them as the orthodox sect. This was not only in name, but also in substance. For example, the Milky Lake Sect had almost been snatched away by them.
Daoist Tongguang frowned and said, "What is this person trying to do?"
The Tanbo Sect was located in Xuanyang Heaven. There were not many people in the sect, and they rarely interacted with the outside world. He knew of this sect, but he had not had any formal contact with it, so he knew very little about it.
Zhang Yan deduced that the Jindi Sect was supported by a force behind them. Their purpose was not to target the Mystic Stones, but to make an issue out of it. This person had always acted in the name of the Great Underworld Founding Master. If it was really the teachings of the Founding Master, then it was fine. If it was not, then they could not be allowed to continue existing like this. Previously, he was busy with Karma points and Mystic Stones, so he had no time to deal with this sect. Now, he could take the time to deal with this matter.
After thinking for a while, he said to Guo Juying, "I will send a doppelganger to follow you back. At the same time, I will investigate this person's background."
Guo Juying stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your care, Fellow Daoist."
Zhang Yan said that it was no big deal, and said, "Regarding the relocation of the sect, it is better to do it as soon as possible. There is no ritual or altar in Xuanyang Heaven that is specially used to worship the Founding Master. When the sects arrive, we will build one together."
Both of them looked solemn and nodded in agreement.
After sitting for a while, the two of them bid farewell and left.
Zhang Yan stood up and looked outside with his hands behind his back. Elder Peng was already prepared to actively promote the Karma points system. Guo Juying's judgment was not wrong. An upheaval in the heavens was unavoidable, and some things should indeed be prepared earlier.
First, he had to strengthen the foundation of Xuanyang Heaven. In his consideration, not only the Tanbo Sect and the Milky Lake Sect, but also the Mingjue Sect and other sects with proper status. Then, he could let them choose their disciples to impart their teachings, so as to weaken the influence of Mount Luo Monastery as much as possible.
Apart from that, there was another matter that needed to be settled. Those who caused trouble for him previously, he did not intend to let them off easily, and would eventually find them one by one.
However, Just Now, he had obtained the Mystic Stone. There were many eyes in the heavens that were staring at him. Although he was not afraid, he also understood that it was not a good time to go out. Once Elder Peng made a move, he would deal with them all at once.
At this moment, an attendant came in from outside and bowed, saying, "Master, a Zhenren from Mount Luo Monastery has arrived. He said that he is here to pay a visit to Master under the orders of Zhenren He."
Zhang Yan stood still and said without turning his head, "Let him in."
Not long after, an outstanding looking Taoist in his thirties walked into the hall. Judging from his Qi, he was a Grotto-Heaven cultivator.
After this person came in, he did not dare to raise his head. He respectfully bowed to the hall and said, "I am Lin Butong, a disciple of Master He. This time, I am here under the orders of Master He to deliver all the Purple Pure External Medicine in my monastery."
Excluding Guru Xuanhong, there were ten Metamorphosis Mortal Cultivators in Mount Luo Monastery. The amount of Purple Pure Spiritual Vigor they used for their cultivation was not small. These external medicines were not all obtained by themselves, but also by sending their disciples out to earn Karma points.
Although Mount Luo Monastery was protected by a Restrictive Formation, it did not exist in isolation. However, in the outside world, it had to rely on the name of Great Underworld Patriarch. This was also one of the reasons why it needed to be a righteous sect.
Because the time limit of a thousand years was approaching, in order to prevent accidents, they had indeed accumulated a lot of external medicine.
Unfortunately, in the previous battle, Master Xuan Hong took away a lot, and most of the unused ones were destroyed in that battle. However, there were still some left in the sect's storage, and the number was actually not small. After checking, they were all sent over.
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. It seemed that he had made the right move to let He Xianyin manage Mount Luo Monastery. At least he was very tactful and knew what he should do. He said, "Put everything down. You can go back now."
Lin Butong hurriedly shook his sleeve, and a billowing smoke floated away. When it dissipated, there were more than a thousand jade jars in the hall. He bowed again and retreated.
Zhang Yan turned around, took a look, and ordered the attendants to carry everything down and put it away. Then, he stepped into the cave room, and with a thought, the surrounding Restrictive Formation began to rotate. He sat on the cattail hassock, and then took out the glazed jade box with the Black Stone.
He flicked his sleeve and closed the lid of the box. There was a perfectly round Black Stone inside. When he looked at it, it floated up and hovered in front of him.
However, looking at it, he didn't feel anything special about it. He pondered for a moment before reaching out and slowly grabbing it.
Boom!
Right at this moment, a strange scene suddenly appeared in front of him. It was as if he had suddenly entered a mysterious cave. His body was constantly moving in a certain direction, and he didn't know where he was going. There were countless fragments of light and specks of starlight around him, and they were constantly converging on his body.
A mysterious feeling arose in his heart. It was as if all things in the world, including the heavens, were revolving around him at this moment.
It was as if a long time had passed, but also as if only a moment had passed.
When Zhang Yan opened his eyes, he discovered that he was still sitting in the cave. It was as if everything he had seen earlier was just an illusion. However, he knew that it was all real, because in his consciousness, there was now an incomparably profound cultivation technique. There were no words, no description, and no specific cultivation method. He could only sense where it was, and as long as he followed its will, he would be able to use it to cultivate.
If the Black Stone Fruit was related to the True Yang Stage, then he might be able to step into the True Yang Stage.
However, he did not immediately start cultivating, because he had a feeling that once he started, there would be great karma. However, he could not judge whether this was good or bad. This was actually more inappropriate than learning about bad news, because he could not make the right choice based on it.
He flipped his wrist and opened his palm, but it was empty. There was no trace of the Black Stone Fruit. However, after he looked at it for a moment, it reappeared in front of him. When he looked away, it disappeared again. It seemed that he could only see it when he wanted to see it, or else it did not exist.
However, this was also a good thing. At least, based on the current situation, no one could take it away without his permission, because they could not find it at all.
He pondered for a moment. Due to the inexplicable feeling in his heart Just Now, he did not immediately start cultivating the cultivation method. Instead, he decided to be more cautious. He thought to himself, "This feeling can't be without reason. Yu Kun has been here for a million years and once followed the Patriarch. Perhaps I can get the answer from him."
Thinking of this, he stood up and waved his sleeve. He came out of the Sky-Scraping Spirit Boat and turned into a clear light that shot into the sky. Not long after, he broke through the void with a bang and arrived at the forbidden formation outside the Mysterious Hong Heaven.
He looked around. Although the Luo Mountain Monastery had been destroyed, the formation was still there, and it seemed that because he had sacrificed to the Patriarch, the weakening had decreased a little.
This time, he did not take out the jade seal of the Du Zhen Hall Master. With just a thought, a path appeared in front of him. He could not help but nod. It seemed that whoever had the Black Stone Fruit was the master of the forbidden formation. He leaned forward, and with a flash of clear light, he passed through the formation in an instant.
As soon as he stood still, he saw a behemoth coming over. It was Yu Kun, who walked up to him and said, "Zhang Shangzhen, you're here. Did you get the Black Stone?"
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Yes, but there are some things I don't understand about this thing, so I need to ask you."
