After Zhang Yan gave the order, ten breaths later, He Xianyin slowly walked in from outside the boat.
He sensed He Xianyin and found that compared to before, He Xianyin had gone through a completely different change. Although his mana had not improved significantly, his aura was more ethereal, as if he did not belong to this world.
Under normal circumstances, after entering Enlightenment, he would still need to cultivate for thirty thousand years. Just Now was the beginning of avoiding the first trial. After that, a dharma body would appear in his place to travel the various worlds. He Xianyin had not cultivated to this level yet, so in terms of combat ability, he was not as good as the Heavenly Lords of the outer worlds.
However, there were benefits too. Without Pang Li to drag him down, his true body could escape to the Heavens beyond Heaven at any time and return easily. As long as his mana was not exhausted or he was trapped, his life would not be in danger. Moreover, from now on, even if he did not deliberately cultivate, his mana would continue to grow.
In a short while, He Xianyin arrived at the court and said, "Greetings, Perfected One."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Sit down, Perfected One."
He Xianyin silently went to the side and sat down.
Zhang Yan asked, "How is your cultivation going?"
He Xianyin replied, "Everything is going smoothly." After a pause, he said, "Now that I have succeeded, if there is anything you need me to do, please take care of it."
He had already thought it through. Since he had embarked on the path of Enlightenment, there was no turning back. There was no hope for the Great Dao in this world, but the opportunity was not lost. If he could really enter the main sect through Zhang Yan and his name was recorded in the genealogy, even if it was only a side branch, he could be considered as a junior disciple of the Great Underworld Patriarch. In this way, he might have a chance to start all over again in his next life.
Zhang Yan said, "The situation in the Yuhuan Heavens is different from before. I believe Perfected One has come out of seclusion for a long time, so you must know that the current battle will determine the future of the heavens. None of the Heavenly Lords can stay out of it. Now that I am in an alliance with Green Jade Palace, we can help at any time. Perfected One should make preparations first."
He Xianyin said, "This one awaits your orders at any time."
Zhang Yan continued, "The Mysterious Flood Sky Formation will dissipate in a few hundred years. At that time, there will definitely be people who covet it, like those evil demons and ferocious monsters, who will invade. If I am not around, the Mysterious Flood Sky Formation will have to rely on you to guard it."
He Xianyin said, "Black Red Heaven is the place where the Great Underworld Patriarch passed down his teachings. I have been cultivating here ever since I entered the Dao. I will not allow outsiders to interfere."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. After exchanging a few more words with him, he dismissed him.
Then, he left the main hall and came to the front of a spiritual wall. He flicked his finger and a ray of spiritual light was shot out. After a while, a deacon Daoist appeared. When the deacon saw him, he quickly bowed and said, "So it's Zhang Shang Zhen. Greetings."
Zhang Yan asked, "Is Elder Peng here?"
The deacon Daoist said, "Shang Zhen, please wait for a moment. Elder Peng is discussing matters with the Perfected Ones in the main hall. I will go and inform them now."
Not long after, Elder Peng appeared in front of the spiritual wall. He smiled and said, "What a coincidence. I was looking for Fellow Daoist Zhang, but you are one step ahead of me."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Is the matter that Elder Peng is referring to related to the Jin Di Sect?"
Hearing that, Elder Peng nodded and said, "It seems that Fellow Daoist has also received news about this sect."
Previously, he did not know about the background of the Jin Di Sect. It was only recently that he suddenly realized that there was a huge force beside him. This made him extremely shocked. Not only did he give up on the strategy that he had prepared to deal with Yang Yougong and the others, he also had to allocate some manpower to guard against them. He did not want another force to come out when he was fighting with others.
Zhang Yan asked, "How does Elder Peng plan to deal with this sect?"
Elder Peng said in a low voice, "Previously, the elders in my palace were discussing this matter. All the elders think that this sect cannot be left alive. If the demonic cultivators gain power, there will be no benefits for the people of humanity. However, the main point of the debate is whether to send people to eliminate them now, or to ignore them for now and deal with them after we eliminate Jueyuan Heaven."
Zhang Yan asked, "What do you think, Elder Peng?"
Elder Peng pondered and said, "It is really difficult to make a decision. Currently, it seems that the Jin Di Sect is involved with Yang Yougong and the others, but they did not take action in the previous battle. It can be seen that the relationship between the two sects is not that deep. If I plan to target them now, it will instead cause them to fall over, which is not a good choice. However, there are also elders who think that the Jin Di Sect is already quite powerful and is still growing. If we do not stop them now, when they take over all the demonic sects in the heavens and join forces with Yang Yougong and the others, the danger will be even greater. It is better to eliminate them now while they are weak. Even if we have to pay a price, it is better than having to deal with them in the future. This makes sense. "
Zhang Yan reminded, "If there are no accidents, the news about this sect was deliberately spread by Yang Yougong. If we deal with them now, we will fall into his trap."
Elder Peng also nodded. "Yes, the elders and I also think so. Does fellow Daoist Zhang mean that we should not deal with them for the time being?"
Zhang Yan said, "If we knew about this earlier, we might still be able to make it in time. It is a little too late to deal with the Jin Di Sect now."
Elder Peng frowned. "Then we should just ignore them?
Zhang Yan smiled. "Before the news spread, the Jin Di Sect has not shown their true face, which means that they are still accumulating their strength. Demonic cultivators are mostly people with uncertain temperaments. Even if they are forced to do so, they may not be completely convinced. There is a lot that can be done here."
Elder Peng thought of something and said, "Please enlighten me, fellow Daoist."
Zhang Yan said, "According to what I know, many of the Demonic cultivators are also leaning towards the Green Jade Palace. Why don't Elder Peng choose a few of them and support them to fight against the Jin Di Sect? This way, we don't have to deal with the Jin Di Sect directly, but we can also divide their strength. At the very least, we can stop them from rising."
After listening, Elder Peng nodded and said, "Yes, fellow Daoist Zhang's plan is killing two birds with one stone. It really helps me solve a problem."
At this point, he seemed to hesitate a little and said, "There is one more thing. I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I still can't make a decision. I would like to ask for fellow Daoist's opinion."
Zhang Yan said, "Please speak, Elder Peng."
Elder Peng looked over and said with a slightly serious expression, "A few days ago, the Plum Blossom Heaven Lord of the Fixed Star Heaven made an agreement with me. He is willing to help me deal with Yang Yougong and the others. Now, I have another Heaven Lord on my side. Fellow Daoist, if I fight with Yang Yougong and the others with all my strength, what do you think my chances of winning are?"
Zhang Yan's eyes flickered and he immediately understood that Elder Peng was not asking about the chances of winning, but whether he supported this idea.
Previously, Green Jade Palace's strategy was obviously to play safe. It could be seen that Elder Peng did not know what kind of tricks the few families of Jueyuan Heaven had. Hence, he was very careful. Now, after a few clashes, he probably realized that this generation was not as powerful as he had imagined. Hence, he had such an idea.
The previous difficulty was that the number of Heaven Lords on both sides seemed to be the same. However, one more Heaven Lord could break the balance. Obviously, the opportunity had come.
Over the past few years, his strength had increased tremendously. It was not difficult for him to deal with this generation. As long as the Green Jade Palace was really determined, he was willing to end this battle earlier.
After thinking about it, he said, "Just Now, there is one thing that I have not told Elder Peng. In Xuanhong Heaven, Zhenren He has already achieved the Crossing Enlightenment Realm. He can come out to help at any time. If the Green Jade Palace has made a decision, you only need to inform I."
Hearing this, Elder Peng could not help but be surprised. Just Zhang Yan's combat power alone was enough to be compared to a cultivator of the Crossing Enlightenment Realm. If there was another person like He Xianyin, the chances of winning would be higher. He said solemnly, "I understand. I will discuss with fellow Daoist again in a few days."
In a cave abode in Jueyuan Heaven, a silver-bearded Daoren stood on the altar. The Two-Realm Dial in front of the table was shining with spiritual light. However, no one came out from the opposite side. He was very patient. After waiting for about two hours, the light finally shook and a four-eyed man appeared.
He bowed and said, "Greetings, Sect Master Zhongling."
Lord Zhongling sneered and said, "You are from Jueyuan Heaven and you still have the face to look for me? I am already giving you face for not looking for trouble in the past. "
Daoren was not in a hurry. If the other party was really going to do that, he would not have given him a chance to speak. However, he showed a surprised expression and said, "Sect Master Zhongling, may I know why you said that?"
Lord Zhongling sneered and said, "Don't think that I don't know that the news about Jindi Sect was spread by Jueyuan Heaven."
Daoren sighed and said, "Sect Master Zhongling, you have misunderstood. After my Senior Martial Brother found out about this, he also sent people to investigate. In the end, it was confirmed that the news did not come from me. Moreover, there were many truths and falsehoods in the news, and it did not involve the identity of Sect Master Zhongling. It was not done by someone who really knows the inside story."
Lord Zhong Ling replied with an 'oh' and said, "In that case, I have wronged you."
Daoren bowed and said, "I don't dare to."
Lord Zhongling smiled disdainfully and said, "Don't say unnecessary words. Why are you looking for me today?"
Originally, he wanted to be the fisherman behind the scenes, but after the news was exposed, it caused his plan to fail. When he found out about this, he was indeed slightly angry in his heart, but he knew that he couldn't shed all pretense of cordiality with Yang Yougong. Moreover, Yang Yougong still had some sense of propriety and didn't reveal his identity.
Daoren said, "A few days ago, Heavenly Lord Han of Zhiwang Heaven sent a letter saying that he is willing to work with us. Previously, five of our sects made the agreement. Now that there is another sect, we naturally have to make a new agreement. That is why I came to inform Sect Master Zhongling and see when it is convenient for you."
Lord Zhongling was slightly surprised and said, "Zhiwang Heaven? Interesting. In that case, with this person, your sect's strength can suppress Peng Xinhu's sect. "
Daoren bowed and said, "Sect Master Zhongling, you think too highly of us. Without Sect Master Zhongling, just the few of us alone will not be able to suppress Green Jade Palace."
Lord Zhongling snorted and thought for a moment. He said, "Go back and tell Yang Yougong that I will come and meet them in the middle of next month."
