Liu Yanyi took back the Missing Moon Sword Orb. She felt that not only did it contain a vast amount of magic power, but it also contained a magic formula. However, when she looked at it, it didn't seem real. She thought about it and was able to deduce a few sentences. However, as she went on, she felt that it was very difficult. She knew that her Dao was still lacking, and she needed to follow her Master's advice and cultivate diligently. Only then would she be able to comprehend more.
She bowed and said, "Thank you, Master, for the technique."
Zhang Yan said, "Just Now, you have already grasped a bit of the trick. However, this technique was passed down by me, so it is not something that belongs to you. Therefore, it is difficult to verify it with your own Dao. You don't need to be in a hurry, you can take your time to comprehend it."
He gave Liu Yanyi some pointers on some of the key points before ordering this eldest disciple to step down.
In fact, with a clone here, even if he wasn't here personally, it would be difficult for a disciple to ask for help. In fact, it was even more convenient, because the clone didn't need to cultivate, and only needed to maintain its own Qi.
At this moment, he had a thought, and after a while, he saw a wisp of water coming from outside the hall. It slowly gathered, and finally condensed into the shape of a half snake and half turtle.
Zhang Yan said, "Fellow Daoist Black Tortoise, the door to the upper realm is right in front of us. I will go there in a few days. Fellow Daoist, why don't you wait here? If I can reach the upper realm, I will give you some good fortune."
The Black Tortoise also sent a divine will over, saying that it would guard the Qinghuan Palace and wait for his return.
Zhang Yan nodded. With the clone taking care of the upper realm and the Black Tortoise guarding the lower realm, there was no need to worry about the sect. However, as Hall Lord Du Zhen of the Qincang School, he had to inform the sect that he was leaving.
Sect Leader Qin was currently cultivating, so it was not convenient for him to meet him. The people in charge of the sect were Qi Yuntian, Meng Zhide, Sun Zhiyan, and other Elders. With a thought, a clone left the Qinghuan Palace and headed for the Mountain and Sea Realm.
Above the Void Sea of Qincang School, Qi Yuntian had a rare moment of free time because of the recent events. At this moment, he felt something and knew that Zhang Yan had arrived.
He pondered. Ever since Zhang Yan opened up Xuanyuan Heaven, he no longer asked about the specific matters of the sect. Even if he wanted to mobilize the sect disciples, he only needed to issue a decree, such as when he attacked the Myriad Que Starstream. But now that he had brought his doppelganger here, something must have happened.
His expression instantly turned serious. With a wave of his hand, he dismissed the disciples on his left and right, leaving only his eldest disciple, Guan Yingyue, behind. Then, he looked up into the sky.
After a while, a clear light descended and landed on the platform. In an instant, it turned into a young Taoist in a black robe. Qi Yuntian bowed and said, "Greetings, Hall Master Du Zhen." Guan Yingyue, who was beside him, bowed.
Zhang Yan raised his hand to return the greeting and said, "Hall Master Qi, greetings."
Qi Yuntian saw that his expression was normal and calmed down. Even if something happened, it would not endanger the sect. He stretched out his hand and said, "Hall Master Du Zhen, please take a seat and talk."
Both sides came to the table and sat down. Above the Void Sea, there was a wave, and a formation spirit stepped on the water. It surged up with the waves and served spirit tea in the jade stove.
Qi Yuntian and Zhang Yan exchanged a few words, then said, "Hall Master Du Zhen, how come you have time to return to the sect today?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "When I was sitting and observing the various realms, I occasionally heard an Elder of the sect suggesting that the sect should be moved to the Kun Shi Continent."
When Qi Yuntian heard him ask about this, he was a little surprised. Although this discussion did not involve the foundation, it was not a small matter. It could be considered as a small move, so he did not dare to take it lightly.
He thought about his words and said, "There were a few Elders who suggested this. However, after the nine continents entered the Mountain Sea, all the sects have advanced and retreated as one. Because this realm has been in operation for a long time, it has long been regarded as a place of foundation. Although there are many benefits in the Kun Shi Continent, there is still a need to rebuild the sect's foundation. There are many sects who oppose this, so until now, there is still no agreement."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly and said, "Then what does Hall Master Qi think?"
Qi Yuntian seemed to have thought about it and said, "Although the Kun Shi Continent has unlimited spiritual opportunity and is very suitable for cultivation, it is not suitable for those who have just entered the Dao. No matter what the other sects say, the Qincang School will at most send some Zhenren to stay there. If the junior disciples make contributions, then they can follow the elders to this place. However, they cannot stay for long and must return within a few years."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "This is a good idea. However, there are still many unsolved secrets in Bu Xu Tian. When it is activated, it may cause changes in the world, so we must be prepared."
He took out a talisman and gently pushed it to the front of Qi Yuntian, "If Bu Xu Tian changes in the future, then you can put this in the Floating Heavenly Palace. It should be safe."
Qi Yuntian took the talisman and felt as if he was holding a world in his hand. He knew that it must contain the power to change the world, so he kept it carefully. At this moment, he had vaguely guessed something. He looked up at Zhang Yan and asked, "Hall Master Du Zhen, are you going to cultivate in isolation again?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Not to cultivate, but to have a glimpse of the upper state."
Qi Yuntian was moved. It was already difficult for a cultivator to cultivate to the True Yang state, not to mention the legendary door to the upper state. He did not expect Zhang Yan to reach this step. However, this was a good thing for the Qincang School. He stood up and made a formal bow, "I wish Hall Master Du Zhen good luck."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "The upper state is mysterious. I may leave the world. This time, I will leave a Dharmakaya here. If there is anything in the sect, you can go to the Xuanyuan Sky to look for me." When he finished, he stood up and made a bow. He shook his sleeve, and a clear light rose from the table and disappeared.
Qi Yuntian stood there for a long time and said to Guan Yingyue, "What I said today, do not tell anyone except the Elders."
Guan Yingyue bowed and said, "Disciple understands."
When Zhang Yan's doppelganger went to the Mountain and Sea Realm, his spirit also went into an unknown place.
After waiting for a while, Dan Yi, Fu Qingming, and Michihito Ichito all arrived.
After everyone greeted each other, Dan Yi said, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, is it related to the upper state that you invited us here?"
Zhang Yan said, "Yes, I have been practicing Daoist techniques recently. According to my calculations, there might be a good opportunity in the near future, so I wanted to inform all of you first."
Dan Yi said with emotion, "Fellow Daoist, you are finally going to take this step."
Fu Qingming said solemnly, "Fellow Daoist, you must be careful."
According to the records, there had been many great powers who had tried to break through this barrier since the three eras, yet no one had ever succeeded. Even though Zhang Yan's magic power and cultivation were unparalleled in the world, and perhaps there were few who could compare to him throughout the ages, it was still not certain that he would succeed.
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist is right."
Before he ascended to the True Yang state, he had Fu Qingming to guide him. But this time was different. So far, no one in the upper state had appeared in front of him. In the past, those who had tried had all failed. Therefore, even though he had seen the World Knowing Slip, he was not sure that he would succeed. He needed to be extra careful.
Michihito Ichito was very carefree and said, "If it was someone else, it might be hopeless. But if it was Fellow Daoist Zhang, I think it would be possible."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "When I ascend to the Upper State, I might implicate the current world and cause some changes in the Qi dynamic, giving rise to some strange signs. However, regardless of success or failure, it will retreat, so don't worry."
Fu Qingming then said, "Fellow Daoist, what do you think the upper state looks like?" After he became a Daoist god, he could no longer go up, but he still had some regrets in his heart. That was why he asked this question.
Zhang Yan thought for a while and said, "This technique is hard to describe. I can only say one sentence, 'Extremely high and distant, look at the sky and not the people'."
Fu Qingming thought for a while and finally let out a long sigh.
After Zhang Yan explained everything to them, he retreated from the spirit.
But at this moment, he suddenly thought of the location of the nine continents.
Ever since the various sects ascended, he had never returned to that place. That place should have long been devoid of spiritual opportunities. But after passing down a technique that he created, he wondered what that place looked like now.
Thinking of this, he looked at the nine continents.
But what surprised him was that when he looked at it previously, it was abnormally clear. But because he felt that the opportunity had not arrived, it was inconvenient for him to go there, so he continued to pay attention. But now that he looked, he saw that it was enveloped in a layer of fog, and it was hard to distinguish it clearly, as if it was not in this world.
Seeing this situation, he could not help but think.
From the very beginning, the nine continents was the place where the patriarchs of various sects stayed, especially the Grand Underworld Patriarch, whose realm was so high that it was still difficult to estimate. And the cultivators that ascended from the nine continents were not only from the Qincang School, but also from Shaoqing, Yuxiao, and even other sects. But now, not a single one of them could be seen.
With his current strength, he was able to observe all the heavens in the world a long time ago, yet he was unable to find the whereabouts of these people. This was probably because the places they had gone to were not within the scope of his usual understanding, so they might very well be within the Chaotic Heaven.
But no matter what, as long as he could go to the upper realm, he would be able to find the answer.
In the following days, he waited there quietly, silently sensing the changes of the world. All the changes in the world were reflected in the spirit, and not a single bit would be missed.
Half a year passed quickly.
On this day, the feeling of the muddy heaven suddenly magnified and appeared in his heart. It was originally blurry, and it was between existence and non-existence. But now, it was like the moon hidden in the fog, and the haze dispersed, suddenly revealing itself to the world.
His eyes flashed. Although he had waited for this moment for a long time, he was still not in a hurry to move, and instead carefully calculated there.
This involved his life and Dao path. If he failed, the best outcome would only be the outcome of Daoist Wan Que, so he had to be extremely careful.
So if this opportunity was not suitable, he would rather miss it and spend more time waiting for the next one than take the risk easily.
He stretched out his spirit and observed the past and future. The strange thing was that he could not find a more suitable opportunity than the one in front of him, and he seemed to have understood something.
He smiled slightly, and in an instant, he released all his mana!
