Ancestor Yao Han came out of the mirror lake and arrived before Bu Xutian. He bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist, are you here? I am here on the Mirror Lord's order to send a message."
Zhang Yan had been paying attention to all the movements in the Mirror Lake. When he saw that person arrive, he smiled and said to the rest of the people, "He finally came."
With a thought, he released a clone outside and returned the greeting. "What does Fellow Daoist Ji Zhuang want to say?"
Ancestor Yao Han said, "It is about that existence. Fellow Daoist Ji Zhuang seems to have a solution, so I came to invite you, Bu Xutian, and the others to have a chat."
Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Fellow Ji Zhuang previously said that you invited that existence's Divine Avatar to enter the realm and suppress it. That way, you can prevent it from returning. Previously, there were many strange phenomena, and now you were sent here. It seems that this matter has been completed."
Ancestor Yao Han said, "Fellow Daoist Ji Zhuang has always acted arbitrarily. We are only relying on him for protection, so how can we act arbitrarily? What's more … "When he spoke up to here, he chuckled and said," I'm afraid Fellow Ji Zhuang is no longer the Fellow Ji Zhuang from before. He said that he had already realized his true self and returned from solitude. He's like a virtuous person, so he can naturally decide what he wants to do. There's no need for him to care about our feelings. "
Zhang Yan's eyes flashed. If Ancestor Yao Han's words were true, then his premonition from before could be explained. If Ji Zhuang was a virtuous person, then everything he did must be the same as the virtuous person behind that existence. It was likely that he wanted to guide his own power back.
However, he did not completely succeed. With the virtuous person's ability, there was no need for him to invite them for a discussion. He could just use his own power to suppress everything.
Actually, from the bottom of his heart, he was happy to see cultivators of the upper realms. Because in this way, perhaps he would be able to learn from them to ascend, and he wouldn't have to constantly walk on the unknown path of the Dao. After these thoughts flashed through his mind, he opened his mouth and said, "Then please wait for a moment, fellow Daoist. Let me discuss with my fellow Daoists, and then I will give you a reply."
Ancestor Yao Han cupped his hands and said, "Please go ahead, Dao Friend."
Zhang Yan's consciousness returned to his body and informed everyone that Patriarch Yao Han was here on behalf of Jizhuang Daoren.
Daoist Shenchang asked, "What do you think we should do?"
Zhang Yan: "Just Now, Yao Han has said a lot, but as for the actual situation, we shouldn't just listen to one person's words. Only by going there will we know. Since Ji Zhuang has invited us to go, why don't you all follow me?"
Qing Sheng, Shen Chang, and the others nodded and said, "We are willing to follow you."
After the agreement was made, everyone's thoughts moved and an avatar came out of Bu Xutian.
Because Zhang Yan's Qi and Power Body had merged together, this clone was very different from the other Spirit Refinement cultivators. However, if he didn't want to, others wouldn't be able to see through the secret and would only think that he was using a Dao technique to conceal himself.
Seeing them appear, Ancestor Yao Han cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoists, please follow me."
Then, he led everyone to follow the flow of Qi and soon arrived outside the mirror lake.
As Ancestor Yao Han descended, Zhang Yan waved his sleeves and followed. Everyone else followed, but suddenly, they felt like their senses had been taken away.
It was as if a long time had passed and they had just woken up Just Now. However, even though they were only avatars, they still caused some mana fluctuations.
Logically speaking, when Spirit Refinement cultivators fought with each other, they should be able to learn some things. But now, they discovered something different.
There seemed to be a force protecting the Mirror Lake cultivators. When their mana passed through, it was only an empty space. Nothing could be reflected on their bodies. Instead, many things that they wanted to conceal were inadvertently revealed. Fortunately, they were only avatars, so even if these things were known, it wasn't a big deal.
Zhang Yan had also sensed this abnormality. Without batting an eyelid, he circulated his strength path body and sealed all the profound manifestations so that no one could see through them.
Ancestor Yao Han turned a blind eye to all of this. He led the way and called for Bu Xutian's group to move forward. Before long, they arrived outside a large hall. Without any need to announce their arrival, they were directly invited inside.
Zhang Yan was the first to enter the hall. When he looked up, he saw Jizhuang Daoren sitting in the main seat. He silently sensed that Jizhuang Daoren's body was like metal, and his mana was empty. There was nothing he could use for reference.
Shen Chang, Qing Sheng, and the others had never seen Ji Zhuang before, but they felt that his qi was very different from ordinary Spirit Refinement cultivators. It was very deep and unpredictable. There seemed to be a strange white light behind him, but when they looked closely, it was difficult to see clearly.
Daoist Ji Zhuang's gaze shifted to Zhang Yan, but he found it difficult to see through the layer of concealment on the latter's body. His expression changed slightly, and he stood up from his seat, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan."
Zhang Yan smiled and returned the greeting. He looked at the seat and asked, "How should I address you now?"
Everyone became attentive. Although it was just a short question, it pointed out the crux of the matter.
They all knew that Jizhuang Daoren had the Bhadanta's Entrustment, but they didn't know whether they were facing Ji Zhuang himself or the Bhadanta who had returned.
Jizhuang Daoren was silent for a while, then said, "Fellow Daoist, you can call me Ji Zhuang now."
When everyone heard that he was still using the name Ji Zhuang, they felt inexplicably relieved. This meant that his consciousness was still in control. After all, the Bhadanta were too unpredictable, and no one knew what they could do. None of them wanted to face them.
Zhang Yan's eyes moved slightly. Other than the person in front of him, his cultivation was higher than anyone else's, so he could hear more from this person's words. In reality, Jizhuang Daoren was still Ji Zhuang, but he had merged with the Bhadanta's Weili into his body. But as he expected, this was not complete. This person's next goal might be to complete the Weili.
Jizhuang Daoren gestured at this time and said, "Fellow Daoists, you have come from afar. Please take a seat and talk."
Zhang Yan thanked him and sat opposite him. Bu Xutian and the others also sat in the guest seats behind him.
Jizhuang Daoren first pointed and said, "Fellow Daoist, look over there."
Zhang Yan looked in the direction he pointed and saw that there was a platform there, and underneath it was suppressing an ethereal figure.
When the sword wielding Daoist split that existence's Divine Energy, he was right in front of it, so he recognized with a single glance that this was one of the Divine Energy clones. This clone was currently being restrained by a special method and was unable to escape.
Jizhuang Daoren said, "Not long ago, I captured this avatar and suppressed it here. I also used a Daoist technique to restrain it so that it will not be devoured by the Almighty." As he spoke, he sighed and said, "I've written to Fellow Daoist several times saying that I can suppress this Divine Clone, but Fellow Daoist didn't believe me and even obstructed me several times. Now it can be proven that what I said was true."
Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Since you can understand yourself and have the power of Great Virtue, why didn't you say so earlier?"
Jizhuang Daoren sighed and said, "It is not that I don't want to say it, but what I have done has the suspicion of going against the heavens. I am afraid that if I say it, it will cause unpredictable changes and I may not be able to return."
Zhang Yan said, "Fellow Daoist, now that you've recovered your strength and sealed this person, I presume you've already made proper arrangements for that person."
Jizhuang Daoren said, "That is why I invited Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan and Bu Xutian here today."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly and said, "Please speak, Fellow Daoist.
Jizhuang Daoren said, "Ever since that Fellow Daoist placed his will outside, his will began to devour everything. I believe that I am a Dao Protector, and the destruction of the essence of creation is already our fault. Now, I cannot sit back and watch as it destroys everything, so I still need to carry out the previous plan."
He looked left and right before looking at Zhang Yan, saying, "Only by cutting off our Dao can we prevent that fellow Daoist from returning."
Zhang Yan raised his eyebrows. In the past, Jizhuang Daoren had hinted that the existence was the will of many Great Virtues. Later, he found the sword-bearing Daoist and deduced that there was only one person who did this. Now that he heard what Jizhuang Daoren said, it was clear.
Daoist Qing Sheng snorted.
Jizhuang Daoren immediately noticed it and looked over, saying, "Fellow Daoist, what do you want to say?"
Daoist Qing Sheng said from his seat, "Fellow Daoist, aren't you trying to cut off my path of cultivation?"
Jizhuang Daoren shook his head and said, "It's not like that. If it wasn't for the danger ahead, why would I forcefully interfere with your cultivation? Compared to being forced into eternal silence, isn't staying in Hengxu a better choice? "
Daoist Qing Sheng said, "Fellow Daoist, you didn't say that Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan had defeated that Fellow Daoist and had the intention to split his Divine Vitality. Why didn't you try to subdue him with force, but instead retreat?"
Jizhuang Daoren said, "I have said this before. You can win once, but you can't win every time. Even if his Divine Vitality is split, his power will still rise. Such resources are with all of you, in the billions of realms. One day, he will surpass us, and no one will be able to stop him."
Seeing that Daoist Qing Sheng had spoken, Daoist Shenchang pondered for a while, then he bowed and said, "Can I say something?"
Jizhuang Daoren said politely, "I have invited all of you here for a discussion. Feel free to speak your mind."
Daoist Shenchang thanked him and said, "I have a question. Fellow Daoist, since you have comprehended your own self, I assume that your magical powers are far above us. Could it be that even with your abilities, you still can't stop that Fellow Daoist?"
Jizhuang Daoren shook his head and said, "I have only recovered a portion of my magical powers, not all of them. The reason why I did this is to prevent everyone from getting into trouble. Moreover, that Fellow Daoist had left behind more than just these. The best solution here is to cut off the source. Moreover …" As he said this, he looked around at everyone, "To put it bluntly, although I have the intention to protect everyone and I am willing to do my best, if that Fellow Daoist really returns, it won't affect me much. Instead, it will be detrimental to all of you. Therefore, I still need all of you to save yourselves."
