Since Xiao Han was killed on the spot, Zhang Yan naturally wouldn't let go of the remaining Origin Spirit's essence blood. He released the Nine-Absorption Devil Taming Slip and absorbed it.
After the sea breeze blew, Xiao Han's corpse and clothes turned into ashes, leaving only a treasured robe and a sleeve on the ground.
Zhang Yan spread out his mystic light and swept the two items away. Then, he turned into a rainbow and flew out of the island. On the way, he called out to Lu Meiniang and returned to the Dragon Country's ship.
After entering the treasure pavilion, he sat on the jade couch and crossed his legs. He first took the treasured robe in his hand and looked at it carefully.
After looking at it, he couldn't help but be surprised. The robe was originally purple, but now it had turned into a white robe. There was a pattern of latitude and longitude on the robe, and it was as smooth as water without a speck of dust. When he pinched it and released it, it returned to its original state without a single wrinkle.
Zhang Yan remembered that he couldn't cut this treasured robe even with the beast-faced broadsword. Even when 365 drops of Serene Yin Heavy Water crashed into it, Xiao Han was still injured but not killed. If a strength path cultivator wore this robe, their battle prowess would undoubtedly be greatly increased when they fought.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "This item is suitable for me."
He looked at it twice more and saw a line of small words on the sleeve. There were four lines written on it, "Seven Star Sun Binding Robe, burning in a hundred smelting fires, not being able to escape the tribulation of man is the most difficult."
When Zhang Yan saw this, he knew that the previous owner of this item was reminding those who came later to not rely on this item to cause trouble, or else it would affect their own cultivation and lead to a tribulation.
It seemed that this robe had some history. It might not have been owned by the Xiao Clan before. With the style of the Xuanmen clans, why would they write such a sentence?
He smiled and kept the treasured robe. Then, he waved his hand and took out a sleeve.
This sleeve was embroidered with stars. The rune lines were connected, and the pattern contained the mysteries of the stars.
After Zhang Yan looked at it, he reached out his hand and pressed it. However, he was gently pushed away by a faintly discernible force and let out spiritual qi. He felt a wave of True Sense faintly resisting him.
He was overjoyed. He didn't expect that this sleeve pouch was actually a Profound Weapon!
Profound Artifacts were hard to come by. Even aristocratic families would not be able to take them out easily. This treasure was only given because Xiao Han's talent was outstanding and he was able to reach the third level of the Mystic Light Realm before the age of twenty-five.
He wanted to undo his sleeves. He had to subdue this treasure no matter what. Thinking of this, he spouted several more wisps of spiritual energy.
Sensing Zhang Yan's domineering spiritual energy, the wisp of true sense struggled a few times, and then, realizing that it couldn't resist, suddenly leaped into the air, as if it were about to flee.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "How can you escape?"
He pointed. The sleeve couldn't help but tremble as it fell from the sky and returned to his hand.
He was about to refine it with his spiritual energy. At this moment, footsteps could be heard coming from outside. He looked out from the restriction and saw Lu Meiniang standing outside the door. He waved his sleeve and opened the door. He stood up and greeted, "Demon King Lu, what brings you here? Please come in. "
Lu Meiniang entered the silent room. The two exchanged a few polite words before she sat down and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, I have a request this time."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Demon King Lu is too polite. If you have something to say, please say it. As long as it is within my capabilities, I will not refuse."
From the moment Lu Meiniang blocked Xiao Han, she was on his side. Apart from this, she had no other way out. From now on, she was on his side. Therefore, if it wasn't a big request, he wouldn't hesitate to help.
Lu Meiniang sighed and said, "My unfilial child, Yan Rong, was my daughter after all. I want to bury her body. Previously, I sealed her meridians and stopped the Primordial Spirit Powder. Now, I want to send her to the world. However, there aren't many people in the sea, so we can only go to the inner sea to find a good family. However, this trip will take several months. My little brother and Junior Sister Jing will have to unlock their shackles and it will fall on you."
Zhang Yan saw the slight exhaustion in her beautiful eyes. He knew that even though she killed her own flesh and blood, she was still sad. He smiled and said, "So it's about this. Fellow Daoist, please rest assured. I will go and see Tao Zhenren. But Fellow Daoist, please don't be too sad, lest you hurt your cultivation."
Lu Meiniang nodded and said, "Thank you for your help." She wiped the corner of her eyes, stood up and bowed before leaving.
After sending Lu Meiniang off, the next twenty days were peaceful. Zhang Yan refined the sleeve pouch and the Seven Star Sun Binding Robe every day. Every three to five days, he would check on the progress of Gu Chu Er's technique.
What surprised him was that even though Gu Chu Er's aptitude was not good, when she practiced the technique of Bu Tian Pavilion, her progress was very fast. It seemed that she would soon find a Jade Elixir Flower Pond to open her meridians.
He thought to himself, "I have been entrusted with a task, so I have to do it. Senior Pu Yuzi gave me the Mountain River Diagram that day, so I should find a good place to return it to his disciple. I can't do it half-heartedly. It seems that after this matter, I have to go to the Flying Boat Immortal Market of True High Yue Temple."
While he was thinking, he suddenly heard a rumbling sound from the opposite island. He unconsciously looked up and saw that halfway up the black mountain, there was a multicolored light shining down. It was like a stick stirring up the clouds, and the sound of beating drums could be heard. It was like thunder and lightning, one sound after another. Even people who didn't know the situation knew that something was breaking through the clouds.
Zhang Yan took a look, and laughed loudly, "The time has come."
He shook his robe, and turned into a ray of light. He went to the bottom of the black mountain, and took out a jade bottle that he had prepared earlier. He muttered something, and then said, "Go!"
This jade bottle received the order, and as if it had a mind of its own, it spat out the stopper. At this moment, the sound in the sky was getting louder and louder, and it was so loud that it made one's eardrums swell. In the end, a ray of lightning streaked across, and the multicolored clouds turned into a torrential downpour. At this moment, the rumbling sound of thunder finally arrived.
Zhang Yan looked carefully. Amidst the rainwater, there were a few droplets of nectar-like rainwater flowing down. Without the slightest hesitation, he carefully moved the jade bottle forward and collected them drop by drop.
This rain fell once every sixty years, and every time it would last for six hours. Moreover, the Four Seasons Water was mixed in, and if one's eyesight was slightly bad, they would have missed it. Naturally, he did not dare to be careless.
However, at this moment, there happened to be a group of people passing by in the sky. After hearing the thunder, they came over.
This group of people exuded an evil aura. In front of them, dozens of people were carrying a flying sedan draped in red with embroidered balls hanging on both sides. Behind them, there were hundreds of male and female attendants, all wearing tall hats and standing on yellow talismans. Their faces were stiff, and their skin was pale.
At this moment, the curtain of the sedan was lifted, and a woman in colorful clothes could be vaguely seen sitting in it. Her eyes wandered, and she looked out a few times. Then, she waved at a girl.
The girl walked up, and with her head lowered, she said, "Everyone, do you have any instructions?"
"The spiritual Qi here is very thick. There must be some kind of treasure being born for there to be an unusual phenomenon in the world. "The girl glanced at the Dragon Country's ship, and raised her chin. She pouted and said, "Go and find out which fellow cultivator is here. If it's a mediocre rogue cultivator, just kill him. "
The little girl answered and got off the cloud, but she was stopped by a ray of light before she could get far. A burly man seemed to have said something to her, and not long after, she turned around and said with her head lowered, "Everyone, I'm afraid that you're not here. These two people have a background. One is the eldest disciple of Tao Zhenren, Guo Lie, and the other seems to be a disciple of Qincang School. "
Hearing that, the girl giggled, and said, "Oh, they both have great backgrounds. They all had great backgrounds, and Perfected Master Tao had always been protective of his own. This time, he's going to open a sect in the outer seas, and I'm going to attend the ceremony, so I can't not give him face. Qincang School is even more powerful, and I heard that there are ten Grotto-Heavens guarding the mountain gate now. Even Shaoqing Sect will be suppressed by them. I can't afford to offend them, so I'd better leave as soon as possible. "
She took a deep look at Zhang Yan, and then put down the curtain of the sedan. The forty-six sedan bearers stepped on the cloud, and in an instant, they disappeared without a trace.
From the beginning to the end, Zhang Yan didn't even glance over. He just focused on receiving the Four Marquises Water. When six hours passed, the clouds and rain stopped, and the sun shone again, he let out a shout, rolled up his sleeve, and put away the jade bottle. Then, he turned into a streak of light and returned to the ship.
However, as soon as he landed on the deck, Guo Lie, who was already standing there, glared at him, and said, "You little brat, if I didn't stop those bastards for you, do you think you'd be so successful? You owe me again for this. "
Zhang Yan smiled, and cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you, fellow Daoist. I didn't take a closer look just now, may I know where these people came from?"
Guo Lie chuckled, and said, "At this time, there is a sect in the southwest called the Corpse Cult, specializing in collecting the corpses of cultivators. This time, they probably heard about the appearance of the Immortal Mansion, so they came out to stir up trouble. If it wasn't for the fact that I haven't recovered from my injuries and lost my demon soul, with my temper, I would have long gone up and killed these people who are full of evil Qi."
Just as Zhang Yan was about to speak, he felt something, and looked up at the sky, and said in surprise, "I've been here for more than a month, and I haven't seen a single person. Today, it's lively. A few just left, and there are more coming."
In the distance, four cultivators flew over on lights, and there were men and women among them. One of them, a young cultivator wearing a scarf on his head, saw Dragon Country's ship, and couldn't help but exclaim, and when he saw Guo Lie, he said in surprise, "Look, it's Martial Uncle Guo!"
This shout was loud, and Zhang Yan also heard it clearly, and said with a smile, "So it's Fellow Daoist Guo's fellow disciples."
However, when Guo Lie saw them, his expression became weird, and he muttered, "These bastard brats, what trouble did they get into now?"
After the four saw Guo Lie, their flying lights sped up, and after a few breaths, they landed on the deck and bowed together. "Greetings, Martial Uncle."
Zhang Yan looked at these people, and he was slightly surprised. Apart from the cultivator wearing the scarf who was at the second level of the Mystic Light Realm, the other three were all at the first level of the Mystic Light Realm.
He heard that among the four disciples under Tao Zhenren, apart from Guo Lie, who was a small Golden Core, the others were all Golden Core Formation cultivators, and his disciples' cultivations weren't weak either. There weren't many Yuanying Enlightened Masters in Qincang School who could teach their disciples like this.
After the disciple with the scarf bowed, he shouted, "Martial Uncle, Shen Minggu of Chongyue True Temple detained Senior Brother Shen and said that he wants us to use a spirit crane to exchange for him. Martial Uncle, please help us!"
Guo Lie usually took care of the younger generation of disciples in the sect, and he had the same protective personality as Tao Zhenren, so he was willing to help out if there was any trouble. However, when he heard this, he grinned. Although he liked to fight, he had just recovered from his injuries, and his beast essence soul was destroyed. How could he fight someone?
He had heard of this Shen Minggu's name before, and he was an expert among the younger generation of Chongyue True Temple. His Yin Yang Flying Knife was also very strong, and even if he was at his peak, he wouldn't dare to say that he could win for sure, let alone now that he was half-crippled.
Seeing these people staring at him, Guo Lie felt a headache coming on. He patted his head and suddenly remembered something. He pointed at Zhang Yan and said, "You guys, find him."
