Zhang Yan made a slight calculation. Judging from the movements of the two forces, even without the Daoist's spell, the second Bhadanta would soon return to being. Therefore, the Daoist's action was only a slight push.
The only difference was that this Daoist might not be seeking the return of a single Virtuous Virtue, but for every Virtuous Virtue to return to all. If not for the fact that this Daoist had nothing to do with the Virtuous Virtue Weili and was instead an extension of another power, he would have thought that this Daoist was the true convergence of the wills of all the Virtuous Virtues.
He pondered for a moment and made another deduction.
This time, he made an unexpected discovery. In fact, the Virtuous Virtue Weili summoned by this Daoist was not certain. He borrowed Ji Zhuang's qi activity to communicate with the Virtuous Virtue, but he did not care who he was communicating with.
He had sensed in the Great Dao of Stars that all the powers were entangled together. With this Daoist's current ability, it would not be easy to find a single Virtuous Virtue.
Thinking of this, his heart stirred. If that was the case, why couldn't he control the power and summon the one he wanted to see?
Just because the Daoist could not do it did not mean that he could not.
The one who would soon return to all was unknown whether he was a friend or a foe, and he did not know if he had any relationship with Weiming. If the two of them combined were stronger than him, there was a possibility that they could threaten him.
It had to be said that he was in control of many places of creation and the place where the essence of creation gathered the most. If the other Virtuous Virtues had enough power, it would not be strange for them to join forces to snatch it.
Now that he had a choice, which one was suitable?
Great Underworld Patriarch was the Patriarch of Qincang School, so perhaps he could try to guide him.
However, he was not sure of Great Underworld Patriarch's cultivation, and he had no way to specifically sense the Patriarch Weili.
The Patriarch might have passed down his orthodoxy in the Nine Continents with the intention of nurturing the younger generation, but it was not necessarily for the younger generation to find him. The key was that his calculations were chaotic. There were either more mysteries involved here, or the time was not right. Thus, he gave up on the idea of guiding the Patriarch Weili.
In the past, the four Patriarchs left their orthodoxy in the Nine Continents, and all of them had qi activity. Great Underworld Patriarch aside, there were three others.
It could be said that Patriarch Yao Han's arrangements had been destroyed by him, so there was no need to mention it.
Ancestral Master Ling You was mysterious and unfathomable, and he did not have any friendly relations with him. Instead, Ancestral Master Shaoqing was the most suitable. If he could summon this person's power back, they could form an alliance.
However, he might not succeed. It wasn't that he wasn't capable enough, but that the other party might not accept his help.
Fortunately, this incarnation of power was still in the Infinite Worlds, so there was no harm in asking him.
He split out an incarnation and stepped out of Bu Xu Tian. He silently circulated his mana and stirred up the Sword Qi.
A moment later, the sword-wielding Daoist appeared in front of him. This time, the sword-wielding Daoist no longer had his back to him. Instead, the sword-wielding Daoist bowed and said, "It is a great virtue to see you again, fellow Daoist. I wish you success in your cultivation."
Zhang Yan returned the greeting and said, "I invited fellow Daoist here today because I wanted to ask, if I could help fellow Daoist return Weili, would fellow Daoist be willing?"
The sword-wielding Daoist waved his hand and said, "If I return, I will use the sword in my hand to cut through the obstacles, not the help of others."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. He had also guessed that this would be the result. Since the sword-wielding Daoist was unwilling, he would not force it.
After the two exchanged a few words, the sword-wielding Daoist disappeared without a trace as he came.
Zhang Yan's thoughts returned to Bu Xu Tian. Even if this person was unwilling to return, he actually had another target to choose from.
As he was thinking, he suddenly sensed something in his heart.
Hmm?
He looked at a certain place in Bu Xu Tian, where a creation spirit that was about to be born was particularly bright.
It was the first time he saw a living being with such dense creation Qi. It could be said that it was very rare. If he could pull it into the Daoist missionary sect, it would be more useful than joining the tens of thousands of people.
However, this spirit was so abnormal. It could be imagined that its will was very firm and would not necessarily be manipulated by others.
But it did not matter even if it did not succeed. Even if this spirit could resist tens of thousands of people, compared to the countless living beings, it was still insignificant. Therefore, he only sent a thought to the lower realm and did not care about it anymore.
Outside the four major tribes, in a certain world, the land was shaped like the Mountain Sea Continent. The sky was like a canopy, and the ground was like a chessboard. More than a hundred cultivators from the Virtue Sect were trekking with difficulty in the desert.
The wind and sand here were very strong, and the sand and stones were hard. When they came through the air, they had the power to destroy mountains.
In the beginning, there were still people wandering in the sky, but they were turned into sieves by a gust of wind and sand. After that, no one dared to fly into the sky.
Everyone was tired of the almost unchanging scenery around them. They had been walking here for dozens of days, but there were still no signs of walking out of this wasteland.
At this moment, there was a strange movement under their feet. Then, a mound arched up. Suddenly, a strange beast that was covered in scales and looked like a snake came out. It swallowed a disciple of the Virtue Sect in one gulp.
The people at the side looked on indifferently and did not do anything. The person walking in front only looked back and continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.
After a few breaths, the snake python beast suddenly stiffened, its body swayed, and its abdomen suddenly exploded, shredded flesh and internal organs splattering out. Immediately after, a brilliant light flashed, and the person who had been swallowed escaped from inside, but after swaying a few times, he fell to the ground.
Someone at the side went forward to check and found that the internal organs and flesh had been melted. He said to the people around him, "It's okay."
After a while, the flesh and blood of the person who fell to the ground grew again. He crawled up and scolded, "What kind of world is this? The spiritual vigor is obviously weak, but the poisonous insects and strange beasts are so difficult to deal with."
After he said that, everyone started to mutter.
An old man in a Taoist robe who was not stained by a speck of dust said, "The transportation force of heaven and earth here is much stronger than other places. The living creatures that can survive here are naturally strong. I have already calculated that we are close to the edge of this wasteland. Everyone, please speed up. We will be able to leave this place in a few days."
He was obviously the most prestigious person here. After he spoke, no one complained anymore.
Soon, the day ended. As the sun set and the heat receded, there was a strong chill. However, the Luo Denomination people were all cultivators. They did not feel anything strange. They did not have the intention to stop and rest. They continued on their way.
At this moment, more than ten starlights suddenly fell from the sky. It was unusually conspicuous in the empty night sky.
After the old man saw it, he showed a serious expression.
A middle-aged cultivator walked to the front and said, "Elder Yi, this light does not look like a meteor. It looks like a cultivator's escape light that breaks through the atmosphere."
The old man grunted and said, "Be careful. It might be someone from the Sect Yan."
The middle-aged cultivator was stunned and said in disbelief, "How is this possible? We don't even know where we are. After we entered the world, we did not come into contact with anyone from the Sect Yan. Why would they come here?"
The old man said, "I just have a hunch. Perhaps they have also predicted that a Heavenly Saint will be born here."
When the middle-aged cultivator wanted to say something, a disciple came to him and reported, "Elder Yi, the disciple who went to scout saw a native village in front of us."
The old man did not reply immediately. Instead, he calculated for a moment and said, "Although those cultivators are quite far away from us, if they are really from the Yan School, then they are definitely coming for us. Send the order to all disciples to hurry to the village as soon as possible.
The middle-aged cultivator was shocked. He bowed and urged everyone to speed up their journey.
When the first light of dawn appeared on the second day, everyone rushed outside the village, only to find that it was unexpectedly large. There were at least a few thousand people here. They didn't know how so many people could survive in such a harsh environment.
However, when they saw the bones of ferocious beasts hanging everywhere in the village and the villagers dealing with their internal organs and flesh, they could understand a little.
The people in the village seemed to be surprised that the Luo Denomination's group came from the desert. However, they were very friendly. Not only did they treat them with good meat and wine, they even gave them their stone houses.
The old man ordered his subordinates to give them some pills and weapons in return. Then, he stayed in the most spacious stone house.
After the middle-aged cultivator looked around, he came back and reported, "Elder Yi, these villagers are not simple. Even without using weapons, they can fight lions and tigers."
The old man nodded and said, "Being able to survive here is naturally not simple. The Heavenly Saint might have been born here. Go and ask around and see if there are any children born here."
The middle-aged man obeyed. After half a day, he came back and reported that three days ago, a family in the east of the village gave birth to a child. When the child was born, he was shrouded in light and was very extraordinary.
The old man's spirit was shaken. Three days ago was exactly when they had arrived. He took out a painting of a demon god from his bosom and opened it to take a look. The demon god's finger had been pointing to the east, and he immediately realized that this child might very well be the person they were looking for.
He said, "Take this child away. We will leave after noon and leave this place as soon as possible."
The middle-aged cultivator said yes and retreated. Not long after, the sound of weapons clashing and shouting could be heard from outside. Then, it gradually subsided.
After about 15 minutes, the middle-aged cultivator returned to the stone house with a sleeping baby in his arms.
The old man's eyes lit up. He took the child in his arms and felt as if he was hugging a piece of warm jade. He said, "As expected of the Heavenly Saint. The prosperity of the Luo Denomination depends on this child."
He asked again, "How was it?"
The middle-aged cultivator said, "The people in this village refused to let us take the child away. They were also unwilling to join the Luo Denomination. I could only take him away by force."
The old man looked at him. There was no joy or anger on his face. He said, "In that case, we need to clean up the mess. Don't leave any traces."
The middle-aged cultivator said, "Don't worry, Elder."
Although the villagers could fight and kill monsters, they were defenseless against the Luo Denomination who were proficient in spells. In just a moment, they were all slaughtered.
The old man walked out with the baby in his arms. Then, the group hurriedly left the place. In order not to leave any clues, they cast a spell to sink the entire village into the ground before they left.
About half a day later, a flying boat arrived. Tang You stood at the bow of the boat and took a look. He took out a mirror and looked at it. He sneered and drove the flying boat towards the direction where the Luo Sect and the others had left.
