Zhang Yan waited for more than ten days. When he went to see the dragon carp again, he didn't know what method Zhang Boyan used, but the old demon's ferocious nature was gone. It became docile and obedient. He couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised. He said, "Zhenren is so capable to be able to tame such a ferocious demon. I asked you to come forward this time, and it's the right medicine."
Actually, it wasn't difficult for him to bring the dragon carp back to the Heavenly Lake of Zhao You, but he had to trap it in the Water Element True Light, which required mana to suppress it. It was fine now that the demon was weak, but once its mana recovered a little, it would be a burden.
In these few days, he went to the Hall of Patriarchs and asked Tao Zhenren for a Beast Subduing Collar. He was prepared to trap it in case Zhang Boyan couldn't subdue the demon, and then slowly clean it up when he got back. He didn't expect the old demon to have some tricks up his sleeve.
Zhang Boyan wasn't modest and said proudly, "This is nothing. When Daoren was in the Netherworld Spring Sect, he was also the head of the Punishment Court. Who knows how many disciples who broke the sect's rules were in his hands. They knew that once they told the truth, they would die, so they didn't want to admit it. But in the end, no one was able to escape from Daoren."
Zhang Yan was surprised. He said, "I heard that the Devil Sect has a soul-searching method. Lies can always be seen through. What's the difference if you admit it or not? Wouldn't you have suffered for nothing?"
Zhang Boyan chuckled and said, "You don't know, as long as the disciples of the Devil Sect don't betray their masters and ancestors, no matter what rules you broke, if you refuse to admit it, as long as you go through the punishment in the Punishment Court, not only will it be considered that you didn't do it, but you will also receive great benefits. It's a pity that since the establishment of the Netherworld Spring Sect, only three people have been able to taste all 232 kinds of torture. The rest can only ask for a quick death."
Zhang Yan couldn't help but smile. There was actually another reason why he accepted Zhang Boyan, and that was to find out a lot of secrets about the Devil Sect from him, so that he wouldn't have to go around asking around.
Back then, although he had sent Su Yiang to secretly join the Devil Sect, until now, he had no choice but to do so. Only a few decades had passed.
'This brat is at most an inner disciple, and his knowledge of the movements of the sect is limited. How can he compare to Zhang Boyan, who is an elder of the Demon Cult? This spy might be useful in the future, but it is definitely not now.'
After chatting with Zhang Boyan for a while, Zhang Yan walked slowly to the Dragon Carp and looked at it calmly.
The old demon trembled and knew that the time had come. He forced out a strand of Yuan Zhen's blood essence from his heart and swore a blood oath.
Zhang Yan felt his body tremble slightly, and something seemed to have appeared in his mind. He silently sensed it, and all the thoughts of this dragon carp appeared in his mind. He knew that from this moment onwards, he was already the master of this great demon, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
In Qincang School, only Qi Yuntian had a Dragon Carp. Now that he had one of them, he didn't know which one was more profound.
Zhang Boyan looked on from the side. He heaved a sigh of relief and said, "With this demon as the Protector Spiritual Beast, as long as Priest Zhang is careful during the meeting, it shouldn't be hard for him to keep his life."
After making the oath, although Zhang Yan couldn't order him to die, but fighting with the enemy was the right way to go. He couldn't go against it.
He was really afraid that Zhang Yan would meet some strong person and send him out to take the blame. Now he was much more at ease.
Half a month passed like that. Zhang Yan felt that he could return to Dong Hua, so he went to the Xuanling Island Ancestral Hall and bid farewell to Tao Zhenren.
After talking in secret for an hour in the hall, he rode a cloud down the mountain.
When he reached the beach, he saw the Dragon Carp lying quietly on the beach. Its golden scales shone brightly under the sun, and the two horns on its head were like blood red coral, crystal clear.
After recuperating for the past few days and swallowing quite a few medicinal pills and tonics, his injuries had already recovered. Even his severed tail fin had grown back.
Just as Zhang Yan was about to step forward, he saw a streak of flying light circling around in the distance. It kept circling around, but it was hard to make out its shape. He shouted, "Is it Fellow Daoist Xu?"
The disciple on duty knew that Zhang Yan was an honored guest of the Ancestral Master. Seeing that he knew who it was, he immediately opened the barrier and let the streak of light in.
The streak of light found the door and darted inside. After circling in the air, the light faded, and Daoist Xu appeared. He floated down from the cloud and greeted Zhang Yan. He looked at the Dragon Carp beside him and said in surprise, "Zhenren Zhang has subdued this old demon? Heh, I thought he was a tough guy, but he's just a coward. "
When the Dragon Carp heard this comment, it was annoyed and scolded, "At least he's better than a sneaky person like you who always stabs people in the back."
This was the first time the old demon spoke. However, the voice that came out was extremely soft, like a child speaking. There was no aura to it. Daoist Xu was stunned at first, then he laughed and said, "Interesting, interesting."
The Dragon Carp seemed to know that its voice was flawed, so it didn't speak often. Seeing that Daoist Xu was laughing at it, it couldn't do anything. It could only stare at him hatefully, as if it could kill Zhang Yan once he gave the order.
After Daoist Xu finished laughing, he noticed Zhang Boyan who was standing beside Zhang Yan. He cupped his hands at him. Zhang Boyan saw that the streak of light was strange and didn't dare to look down on him. However, when he returned the greeting, he still had the arrogance of a demonic sect in the Dong Hua Continent.
Zhang Yan said, "I was going to look for you, but since you're here, the three of us will return to Dong Hua together."
Daoist Xu's expression turned serious and said, "I've long heard that Qincang School is a large Xuanmen sect with tens of thousands of years of inheritance. I was just about to go and take a look."
At this moment, the dragon carp supported itself with its claws and supported its huge body. It said fawningly, "Master, this little monster is good at water. Why don't you carry me? Walking on the sea isn't much slower than using the astral winds to escape."
Zhang Yan said curiously, "But when I saw you chasing me that day, you weren't that fast."
The Dragon Carp explained, "That's because this little demon needs to command the navy and control the Qi of heaven and earth. If I don't have these, no one would dare to say that their ability to control waves in the sea is second."
Daoist Xu sneered and said, "If you don't brag, I will know that Zhenren Li Buqu's ability is far above yours."
The Dragon Carp didn't dare to say that it was comparable to the Zhenren Dongtian. It couldn't help but be speechless. Then, it thought, why is this Daoist mocking me again? However, its brain wasn't very bright. It was so angry that it wanted to retort, but in the end, it couldn't force out a single word of rebuttal.
A faint smile appeared on Zhang Yan's face. A cloud of smoke appeared beneath his feet, and his body floated up into the air. He landed on the back of the Dragon Carp and said, "Stop talking. Since you're boasting, let me see what you've got."
The Dragon Carp gathered its spirit and let out a long dragon roar. The waves on the sea were stirred up, and countless crystal water droplets splashed. The demon paused its claws, and a gust of water vapor flew over, turning into a dark cloud under its abdomen. It swung its tail fin, and created a trench on the sea. The fog and clouds rolled, and it flew towards the west.
The demon seemed to be competing. Its mana climbed up layer by layer, and the waves under its body kept stirring. The water splashed to both sides, and in the blink of an eye, it disappeared into the horizon.
Daoist Xu had a mocking expression on his face. He took out the Invisible Yin Blade and leaped onto it. A faintly discernible escape ray quickly chased after the demon. It seemed like he still had a lot of strength left.
Zhang Boyan didn't show any weakness as well, and he cackled strangely before suddenly transforming into a wisp of smoke that flowed forward mightily like a muddy river.
The two of them were experts in flying, and they caught up in an instant.
Zhang Yan lowered his head and looked down. He saw that the dragon whale was covered in water and the waves were rolling. The escape technique that it was using was somewhat similar to the Water Escape Technique. It could use the momentum of the water to move. However, this was its natural supernatural power. It looked powerful but it did not require much mana.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of something. He patted the dragon horn on the head of the Dragon Carp, and asked, "Do you have a name?"
The Dragon Carp said, "My name is Si Ren. If you don't like it, you can change it."
Zhang Yan smiled, "There's no need for that. I don't have such strict rules. You can still use your original name."
Si Ren was beaten up miserably by Zhang Boyan a few days ago. If Zhang Yan didn't ask, it wouldn't dare to take the initiative to talk. Now that it finally got a chance to talk, it couldn't help but ask, "May I know where is your cave abode in Dong Hua?"
Zhang Yan looked around and saw through its thoughts. To ease its mind, he said, "My cave abode is called the Heavenly Lake of Bright Serenity. It's also an underwater abode. It has a large circumference, and there used to be a Heavenly Abode of the Water Clan living there. You don't have to worry."
Although the Dragon Carp recognized Zhang Yan as its master and had to follow him back to the abode, it was still a mutant of the sea. It couldn't live without water for a day, and it was most afraid of being confined in the wilderness. It couldn't stretch its body in the small rivers and rivers. Now that it heard that the Heavenly Lake of Bright Serenity was a blessed place for the Water Clan, it couldn't help but feel relieved.
The three of them and the monster rode the waves on the sea, looking westward. In just five days, they had already covered half of their journey.
However, this journey caused a great commotion. As Yuanying cultivators, it was inevitable that the Gang Qi around them would spread out when they flew, constantly setting off monstrous waves. They didn't feel much about it, but they didn't know that it had already alarmed the various forces on the sea. Especially after entering the inner sea, it caused a lot of chaos.
A Nascent Soul cultivator could be regarded as a Grand Supreme Elder in those sects and sects, and they rarely came out. Even if they traveled, they would be above the Extreme Sky, traveling by riding the strong winds. Ordinary cultivators rarely saw them.
At this moment, they actually saw three of them, not to mention that the dragon-headed giant fish was also ferocious and terrifying. Wherever it passed, the cultivators all retreated in fear, afraid that if they were too slow, they would be killed by the Gang Qi that came out.
On this day, near the edge of the East Flower Continent, there was a large boat moored. Many handsome male and female cultivators dressed in white stood on the cloud raft, waiting on both sides.
A young woman with her hair combed into a ponytail, wearing a light yellow palace dress with ribbons around her body stood at the bow of the boat. Her eyesight was extraordinary, and from hundreds of miles away, she saw the large waves and clouds coming. Knowing that the main character had arrived, she took a step forward.
She activated her mystic technique, and a Gang Qi rose from the top of her head. She said in a clear voice, "My name is Mu Bingxin, an elder of the Pengyuan Sect.
