Tang You came to this domain because there was a message on the Dharma Inheritance Stone Tablet that there was a baby that was about to be born. He was a person favored by heaven and earth and was extremely important to Yan Sect. If he could be taken into Yan Sect, then the sect would definitely prosper in the future.
In reality, with his current ability, it was really overkill to do this. If it wasn't for Gao Chengtu's special attention to this baby, he would not have been sent here to prevent any mistakes.
It was just that after coming here, he saw that the place where the baby was born had been razed to the ground. Looking at the residual aura, the person who did it was most likely from his old rival Luo Sect.
However, after thinking about it carefully, since this baby was favored by heaven and earth, he would not die here so easily. It was very likely that he was taken away by the Luo Sect.
Not long after the flying boat flew, Tang You discovered that there were spots of green around him. It was obvious that they were out of the desert. The sandstorm had also become much weaker.
He glanced down. Although the Luo Sect people had used some kind of concealment, but under his gaze, there were still faint traces left. He could see that these people were divided into three groups, each going in a different direction. There were more people and fewer people, so it was difficult to determine where the baby landed.
He turned around and pointed out three capable disciples from the group behind him, saying, "I'll leave this matter to you. Go search in one place each. Even if you can't eliminate this group of people, try your best to delay them. I will send people over to help."
The three disciples bowed and flew out of the flying boat, each going in a different direction.
One of the disciples with the surname Chen flew out for half a day and saw the Luo Sect people. There were about fifty people. After leaving the wilderness, without the interference of the sandstorm, they were all flying in the clouds.
Although the other party had a large number of people, he was not afraid and immediately rushed up. At the same time, he made a hand sign and as his mana revolved, streams of flowing light and flames rushed towards this person.
Today's Yan Sect was different from the past. He was proficient in all kinds of supernatural Taoist techniques and could also control all kinds of flying boats and magical weapons. His combat power was far from what it used to be. This was also the reason why he dared to attack alone.
Moreover, he did not expect to take care of these people by himself. This move was mainly to entangle this person and wait for the arrival of reinforcements.
As for whether he would be able to injure the infant, he wasn't worried in the slightest. A person that obtained the favor of the heavens and the earth naturally possessed karmic luck, so it wouldn't be so easy for the infant to be killed by him.
Elder Yi from the Luo Denomination did not travel with the crowd. He was cautious and carried the baby alone. He concealed his figure and flew at a low altitude. At this moment, when he saw someone chasing after him, he could tell that it was someone from the Yan Denomination. Moreover, his combat power was not weak.
He immediately felt that something was wrong. It was impossible for Yan Jiao to come alone. There must be even more members who had yet to arrive. After weighing the pros and cons in his heart, he immediately took out a spell and decisively left all the members behind. He quietly escaped underground.
Anyway, the disciples of the Luo Denomination could cultivate as long as they worshipped the statue of the Demon God. Moreover, these people were not related to him, so it did not matter to him whether they lived or died.
Now, as long as he could protect the Heavenly Saint, then he could become the person who revitalized the Luo Denomination.
The disciple with the surname Chen was initially afraid of the other party's numbers and was more careful. However, after exchanging blows, he realized that the other party's abilities were unexpectedly weak. In merely an hour, he had finished off all of them, but he did not find the whereabouts of the infant. He initially thought that the infant might have fallen into one of the other two paths. However, after interrogating the disciples of the Luo Denomination who were heavily injured but not dead, he found out that the infant had been taken away by an elder of the Luo Denomination. He quickly searched everywhere, but until nightfall, he still did not find any clues. In his frustration, he could only turn back to the flying boat.
Actually, it wasn't that Disciple Chen didn't work hard this time. Elder Yi had escaped for over a thousand miles in one go, and his transcendence energy was slightly insufficient. He wanted to return to the surface, but he crashed into an underground river, and from there, he escaped underground.
He thought that heaven would never bar one's way. As a cultivator, it was difficult for others to deduce his origins. This underground was a natural hiding place, so he simply hid here.
However, at this moment, the infant started crying.
Although Elder Yi had never taken care of an infant before, it was not difficult for him to know that the infant was hungry.
He was afraid that he would injure the child while escaping Just Now, so he scanned the infant with his eyes and examined him carefully. He was shocked and praised, "As expected of a Heavenly Saint."
This infant was blessed by nature. Although it had not been long since he was born, his muscles and bones were strong and his vitality was full. He suspected that even if he were to be left in the wilderness, he would only need a little water vapor and tiny creatures to survive for ten days to half a month.
However, he still saw this infant as the hope of the Luo Denomination's revival. He was afraid that doing so would damage his foundation, so he felt that it was better to take care of him carefully. He took out a pill from his pocket and crushed it. He then used water to wrap a thick layer of medicinal paste in it and spread it on his finger to feed the infant slowly.
This pill was, after all, full of medicinal effect. After the infant sucked a few mouthfuls, his short limbs moved a few times, and his body twisted a little before he fell asleep.
Elder Yi did not dare to stay in one place for too long. As a cultivator himself, it was unlikely that his whereabouts would be deduced. However, the infant in his arms was not, so he could only try his best to avoid detection.
Disciple Chen had already returned to the flying boat that came to pick him up. He said to Tang You in shame, "Master, I am useless. I let a Luo Denomination Elder take him away."
However, Tang You did not reprimand him. He said nonchalantly, "It's alright. As long as he cannot leave this place, where else can he go?"
He looked around and said to the disciples who had returned one after another, "I will leave this matter to you all. If you can't do it, I will let the headquarters send someone else to take over."
Disciple Chen was holding back his anger. He said loudly, "Don't worry, Master. Give me a hundred days and I will definitely find him."
Tang You waved his hand and said, "Don't be too sure. We have plenty of time this time. We can take our time to search. As long as we find him, everything will be fine."
Actually, he left these matters to his disciples. Firstly, he had the goal of training his disciples. Another consideration was that he instinctively felt that he could not be too deeply involved with this child favored by heaven and earth. If it was not for Gao Chengtu's orders, he actually did not want to come here.
After the disciples received his orders, they searched everywhere for Elder Yi. Finally, they found his whereabouts after half a year.
Elder Yi was only one person. These disciples all had the same level of cultivation as him. If he had abandoned the infant, he could have hidden himself. However, he had long regarded the infant as the hope of revitalizing the Luo Denomination. How could he abandon him so easily? Once he left a trace, it would immediately be deduced by the people of Yan Denomination.
He was killed by a few disciples of Yan Denomination. Before he died, he even thought of killing the child to prevent Yan Denomination from taking advantage of him. However, he could not find the opportunity until the end.
On the flying boat, the disciple surnamed Chen brought the child back. He raised him in front of Tang You and said, "I'm afraid the denomination is looking for this child."
Tang You looked over. This child was clearly only around six months old. He was already as big as a three or four year old child. His hands and feet were waving about. His face was full of anger. He was still shouting incessantly, "You guys harmed grandpa. Sheng 'er will kill you, kill you all."
Tang You's face was indifferent. He waved his hand and signaled for the child to be taken away.
Another half a month later, the group returned to the headquarters of Yan Denomination.
Tang You personally brought the child to Gao Chengtu. Ever since Sheng 'er arrived, he had not uttered a word. However, his eyes were full of hatred.
After Gao Chengtu saw him, he ordered people to bring him away and take good care of him.
Tang You said, "Teacher, this child is evil and tyrannical. He sees Yan Denomination as an enemy. If we keep him, I'm afraid he will become a great disaster. What's funny is that he does not hate the enemy who killed his parents' clan. Instead, he recognizes the enemy as his father. If I tell him clearly, he will think that I intentionally deceived him."
Gao Chengtu shook his head and said, "Why are you bickering with a half-year-old child?"
Tang You sneered and said, "A person favored by the heavens cannot be compared to an ordinary child. I don't believe that he can help Yan Denomination. In my opinion, we absolutely cannot impart Dao techniques to him. Otherwise, he will harm our denomination in the future."
Gao Chengtu was not a person who could not listen to opinions. He pondered for a moment and said, "This child should be raised by me personally. If his temperament does not change, I will naturally not impart Dao techniques to him. My Denomination does not lack such a person. Let him be a peaceful and stable mortal for the rest of his life."
Tang You said, "Since teacher has said so, then disciple will obey. However, this child was brought back by disciple. If he does anything to harm Yan Denomination in the future, then disciple must personally end him."
In Qinghuan Palace, Zhang Yan was performing a spell and calculating. After deep consideration, he decided to first try to invite back the Great Virtue who had transmitted his thoughts to him and told him how to reach the third stage of the realm.
This was a choice made when there was no other choice. He had no way of knowing what the other Great Virtues were like, but at least this one did not have any hostile or malicious thoughts. Since a Great Virtue had to come back eventually, it was better to have this person.
However, he used the remnant thoughts in the Divine Decree to search, but there was no way to find a trace of this person's Weili, which made him slightly surprised.
The reason for this was either because this person's Mighty Energy was on par with the Grand Underworld Founding Ancestor, so he was unable to sense it, or he was firmly obstructed by the Tribulation Energy and didn't have a trace of his Mighty Energy on the outside. The last reason was that his Mighty Energy had vanished a long time ago. If it was like that, then he'd fallen into eternal silence.
However, this possibility was not high because all Great Virtues had the Fortune of Pauline in their hands, which could protect themselves. Not to say that they could defeat anyone, but it should not be difficult for them to protect themselves, unless they were besieged by many people of the same generation. However, if that was the case, then they would definitely not be able to keep the Pauline in their hands.
However, with the help of this person's aura, he was able to find Pauline, which meant that the treasure was still in his hands in the end.
Combined with the shattered thoughts, it was very likely that this person had been blocked by the power of Calamity. Perhaps this person was among the Great Virtues who had comprehended the essence of creation. If that was the case, then it was all the more reason to bring him back. Perhaps he could understand the specific situation at that time from this person's mouth.
He pondered for a moment. It seemed like he could only first dissolve the power of Calamity in Pauline and allow this consciousness figure to recover completely before thinking about anything else.
