Above the vast East Sea, Zhang Yan rode on the wind and clouds, flying towards the direction of the Reef Manor.
For the past few days, he had traveled to the deserted islands within tens of thousands of miles to collect the spirit veins. He had accumulated a lot in the Mountain River Painting, but it was not enough to compete with the disciples of the various sects in the sword contest. Thus, he set his sights on the Reef Manor.
There were no spiritual eyes on the East Sea, and the Lu family was born as a demon, so they did not have any celestial palace treasures. Thus, they spent thousands of years collecting strange soil and spiritual spring water to nurture it. Only then did they manage to nurture a spirit vein that was originally a True Palace Qi Manor into a place that was comparable to a paradise.
But if this spirit vein was left unattended, the spiritual vigor would gradually disperse, and in a few hundred years, it would become the same as those deserted islands.
Zhang Yan thought that instead of that, he might as well benefit himself.
After traveling for a day, he suddenly felt something strange. In front of him, there was a thunderstorm, the waves were raging, and a dark cloud was pressing down on the sea, rolling towards him.
But other than the few miles under the cloud, the rest of the area was clear blue sky, and the weather was beautiful.
He could see that someone was using magic, but to be able to create such a scene with mana, this person's cultivation must be very high, at least a Yuanying cultivator.
He thought to himself, "On the East Sea, all the Yuanying cultivators have a name, I wonder which one is this?"
At this moment, a cloud of smoke flew out from the thundercloud, and there were two Daoists standing on it. Their hair was in a crooked bun, and their robes were tattered, looking very pathetic.
Both of them carried a strange fish that was five feet long on their backs, and lightning came from behind them. There were a few times when they almost caught up, and it looked very dangerous.
Zhang Yan did not want to be involved, so he pushed the cloud and wanted to go around it, but the person controlling the thundercloud suddenly separated a thick black cloud, and covered him.
He raised his eyebrows, and raised his hand to strike out a ball of strong lightning. It dispersed the cloud.
But the other party was not willing to give up, and two more lightning struck him. He waved his sleeve. The Heaven and Earth Leaf flew out, and blocked the lightning, and said, "I am just passing by. I have no intention of interfering with fellow Daoist's matter, please do not misunderstand. "
After cultivating to the Nascent Soul Realm, most cultivators valued their own lives extremely. If it wasn't a life and death enemy or a fight over a treasure of heaven and earth, then there was no need for them to get into conflict with cultivators of the same cultivation.
Normally speaking, this kind of greeting would cause the other party to stop. But unexpectedly, that person's temper was unbelievably great. He was still unwilling to believe Zhang Yan's words, so he continued to send out lightning bolts, unwilling to give up.
Zhang Yan's eyes narrowed slightly. He was unwilling to participate in such an inexplicable battle. Looking at the two Daoists who were escaping, he had an idea and chased after them. In an instant, he was behind the two of them, and with a wave of his sword light, he wrapped them up. He activated his magic power and in the blink of an eye, he was ten thousand feet away. With a few more leaps, he had left the thundercloud behind.
After flying for another 50 kilometers, he Just Now stood still on the cloud and released the two of them. He cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoists, please."
The two of them had just recovered from the shock. One of them, the thin Daoren, saw Zhang Yan and his expression changed.
Zhang Yan keenly captured the change in his expression and stared at him. "Fellow Daoist, you seem to have seen me before?"
The Daoren panicked under his gaze. He braced himself and said, "Yes, yes. That day, the Reef Prefecture besieged the Clear Feather Sect. I went to watch the commotion and was fortunate enough to see Perfected Zhang from afar."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I see. May I know your names?"
Daoren hurriedly bowed and said, "I don't dare. I'm Cui Mulong, and this is my junior brother, Wei Jinghui."
When the young Daoist beside him knew that Zhang Yan was a Yuanying Perfected One, he hurriedly came forward and bowed respectfully.
Zhang Yan asked again, "Who was that just now? Why did he chase after you two?
Cui Mulong sighed and said, "Perfected One, you may not know this, but that was a dragon carp in the East Ocean. My senior brother and I have a hobby, and that is to eat delicious food. Throughout the East Ocean, only the disciples and disciples of that old dragon carp are the most delicious. Today, I was craving for food, so I specially came out to hunt for wild food. This old demon usually hides in its cave, but for some reason, it actually came out of its nest today. If not for Perfected One's help, I'm afraid it would not have escaped with its life."
When Zhang Yan saw the ball of clouds earlier, he suspected that it was a demonic cultivator. At this moment, when he heard that the person performing the technique was actually a dragon carp, he couldn't help but think in his heart. Could it be because of that reason?
He had the 'Purple Jade Hairpin Flower' that was gifted to him by Perfected One Cheng. This flower was able to attract the dragon carp from thousands of miles away, so it must be because he got too close to the dragon carp and was discovered by this old demon.
Thinking about it this way, it was very likely that the old demon was coming for him, and the two of them were just tagged along. Otherwise, with their meager cultivation, they probably wouldn't even be able to withstand a single blow from such a great demon.
His thoughts turned quickly, but he was still preparing to go to the Reef Mansion, so he had no time to deal with this old demon. He would deal with it when he returned.
Cui Mulong and Wei Jinghui, on the other hand, were extremely grateful to Zhang Yan for saving their lives. They tried their best to invite him to their mansion to taste the delicacies.
Wei Jinghui even said, "Perfected One Zhang, my cave mansion, Fire Mamba Island, is only about six thousand miles away from here. My sister is also very hospitable. Although my cultivation is low and my mana is shallow, I dare to boast about my cooking skills."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I still have important matters to attend to today. After I'm done, I will definitely pay you a visit at your cave mansion."
Wei Jinghui was overjoyed. He had heard about Zhang Yan from Cui Mulong and knew that he had a close relationship with the Clear Feather Sect. Putting that aside, he was also a Yuanying Perfected One. If he could befriend him, he would definitely be able to rely on the Clear Feather Sect.
Cui Mulong hesitated for a moment and said, "Perfected One Zhang, I heard that the disciples of Chongyue True Temple are looking for your whereabouts. Perfected One must be careful."
Zhang Yan's eyes flickered, he cupped his fist and said, "Thank you for informing me, Fellow Daoist Cui. I will take my leave now."
As soon as he finished, he turned around and waved his sleeve. He rode on a ray of light and leaped into the high clouds, heading east.
The Reef Mansion was very easy to find. After traveling for about two days, he saw a magnificent palace city standing on the sea from afar.
The city had five-colored corals as its walls and black reefs as its beaches. It was a huge city that was more than a thousand miles wide. The buildings were arranged in rows and rows, all of them exquisite.
Under the morning sun, the sea was sparkling. The glazed roof tiles were bathed in golden light, bright and eye-catching. The palace and the tower in the distance were like a painting, faintly blending into the sea and sky. It was indeed a place that the Lu Family had built for ten thousand years.
In the center of the city, there was a sea cave that was thousands of hectares in size. It was originally the place where the Oceanic Ship was docked, but now it was empty.
The original intention of the Oceanic Ship was to show the Manor Master's martial prowess and power when he traveled and to intimidate the Eastern Sea's water tribes. It could not change its size. As Zhang Yan thought that it was not easy to carry around, he threw it to Lu Changsu.
If he returned to Qincang School in the future, he could only give this item to Clear Feather Sect as a gift, treating it as a small favor.
It had been less than two months since the Lu Family was destroyed. Though the Lu Family members had already disappeared, the small wandering cultivator sects of the Eastern Sea still did not know how Clear Feather Sect would deal with the ruins of the Reef Mansion. Therefore, they were still watching carefully and had not made a move to occupy it. Only a few small demons that had turned into spirits in the sea did not know what was going on. Seeing that the restrictions here had been destroyed, they thought that they had gained an advantage and occupied a few palaces, declaring themselves kings.
These small demons had low cultivation and no abilities, so Zhang Yan did not pay them any attention.
After circling around the city walls, he sensed that the spirit vein was under the Positive Sea Cave. He pressed down on the ray of light and rushed down.
Many of the small demons in the Positive Sea Cave felt an incomparably strong Qi activity rushing over. They all panicked and fled in all directions.
After going down for dozens of miles, he reached the bottom of the Positive Sea Cave. He saw a ball of faint light sinking into the sand, and there seemed to be another world within it. He knew that he had found the place. He opened up his sword light and entered it, turning into a rainbow as he followed the sword.
When he arrived in front of the light, the sword light suddenly descended. He felt a slight sluggishness, as if he had hit some kind of obstacle. He shouted and activated his transcendence power, breaking through it.
At this moment, the scenery in front of him changed. He looked around and saw that he had arrived in a jade hall that was filled with the light of pearls and pearls. It occupied an area of about a hundred acres and was filled with beautiful flowers and jade grass. However, many places were filled with potholes, and it was obvious that they had been picked by people.
Zhang Yan pondered. This should have been done by Wang Yingfang and Lu Changsu when they came here previously. The plants that were left behind could only be used as ornaments and had no other use.
He stomped on the ground and rose with the wind. In an instant, he had walked through the entire hall and found a place with the densest spiritual Qi. He reached into his sleeve and took out the Painting of Mountains and Rivers, then tossed it into the air.
This painting of mountains and rivers immediately floated in the air and slowly unfolded along the scroll. In just a moment, it had unfolded to the size of a thousand feet. Within it, countless mountains, rivers, provinces, and continents appeared.
Zhang Yan made a hand seal, and the painting trembled, concealing the human provinces and cities. Only the mountains and rivers remained. Then, rays of brilliant spiritual light flew out from the earth veins, and as if they were being pulled by a suction force, all of them were cast into the painting.
He was extracting the spirit veins here, but outside the Reef Manor, two cultivators in blue Daoist robes flew over. The two of them looked down with excitement and whispered to each other. Then, a letter flew into the sky and retreated far away.
These two were disciples of the Chongyue True Temple. After Zhang Yan left the Clear Feather Sect, he had been targeted by the disciples of this temple.
However, he was a Yuanying cultivator, and most of the time, he flew above the Extreme Heaven. The East Sea was vast and boundless, so how could it be easy to find his whereabouts?
Even if they occasionally caught a glimpse of him, by the time the news reached the temple, he would already be long gone.
However, this time, he had to stay here to collect the spirit veins for quite some time. This gave the Chongyue True Temple a chance.
However, after two days, a long rainbow flew over like a startled dragon and arrived above the hall. When the splendor opened, Shen Lintu walked out with a horsetail whisk in his hand. After receiving the letter, he was afraid that Zhang Yan would escape, so he quickly used his escape technique and rushed here as fast as he could.
However, now that he was here, he was no longer in a hurry. He looked down, stroked his beard, and faintly smiled. He did not enter the Sea Point, but only took two steps, sat down, and patiently waited for Zhang Yan to come out.
