Zhang Yan came out of the Danding Courtyard and returned to the Clear Darkness Heavenly Lake. After sitting down in the hall, he started to think about going to Dongsheng Continent.
Before this, he intended to go to Shaoqing Sect to ask for a sword technique, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate.
Firstly, Shaoqing was in the extreme west of Dong Hua, and his whereabouts should not be known by too many people, so it was inconvenient to go there. Secondly, after seeing Xun Huaiying's flying sword technique, he didn't think that he could beat her in this aspect, so the time was not right yet. He could only look for another opportunity in the future.
However, he was entrusted by the sect master to go to Dongsheng Continent, not only to take over Shen Baishuang's residence, but also to expand it. There were many things to do, and it was not enough for him to do it alone. He needed to bring a few direct disciples with him to help.
Liu Yanyi was the eldest disciple, so she had to guard the residence on his behalf and couldn't leave easily. Tian Kun was dull and focused on cultivation, so he didn't like it. On the other hand, the Wang sisters hadn't reached the Core Transformation Realm yet, so they couldn't learn the divine arts of the sect, so it was a good time to bring them along.
Thinking of this, he said, "Zhang Jing, go get Caiwei and Caiting."
The mirror spirit left, and after a while, the Wang sisters came to the hall and knelt down together, saying, "Disciple greets teacher."
Zhang Yan raised his hand and gestured for the two to stand up, saying, "I called you here today because I'm going to travel again. You two can come with me."
Hearing that they were going to Dongsheng Continent, the two sisters had different reactions. Wang Caiting's eyes shone with joy, while Wang Caiwei's expression was only slightly surprised, and then she calmed down.
Zhang Yan smiled. With a flick of his finger, a light flew into Wang Caiwei's hand, and he said, "This is the ship of Dragon Country, it's a means of transportation for the three of us. Caiwei, keep it well. Tomorrow, the two of you will leave the residence. Remember, don't fly, you have to go to the East Sea by land, and wait there. After I'm done, I'll come find you. I'll come find you. "
Dongsheng Continent was extremely far from Donghua Continent, and they needed to cross the ocean. It would be easier if they used the astral wind to travel, but he didn't want too many people to notice him. He weighed the pros and cons. He decided that it would be better to travel by sea.
Wang Caiwei was beaming with joy. He said, "I will obey Master's orders."
Zhang Yan didn't say anything else. He waved his hand, and the Wang sisters bowed to him again. Then, he retreated.
Zhang Yan thought for a moment and said to the mirror spirit, "Go and invite Mr. Zhang and Mr. Lu."
Zhang Boyan and Lu Meiniang had escorted Wei Zihong back to the mansion a few days ago and were currently cultivating in the cave. Hearing that Zhang Yan was looking for them, they immediately rushed to the main hall to meet them.
After the three of them greeted each other, Zhang Yan first said to Zhang Boyan, "Mr. Zhang, I need to go to Dongsheng Continent for some reason. I'll leave in a while. I wonder if Mr. Zhang will stay or go with me?"
Zhang Boyan laughed and said, "I'm already a person without roots in Donghua. I've often heard that Dongsheng Continent is full of spiritual resources and is several times bigger than Donghua, but I've never had the chance to see it. I'm willing to go with you, Chief."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "That's good." He turned his head again and said to Lu Meiniang gently, "If Mr. Lu sees Elder Yan, please pass on my message. I will remember all the help I've given you previously, and I will repay you in the future."
Lu Meiniang smiled softly and said, "You're too kind, Chief. I was fortunate to be taken care of by you, and lived in a cave paradise to achieve what I have today. Speaking of which, it's me and my wife who owe you, Chief."
Zhang Yan sighed. He would be gone for at least two hundred years, and Lu Meiniang was already more than seven hundred years old. After this farewell, he was afraid that they would never meet again, so he stood up and bowed solemnly. He said, "Take care, Mr. Lu."
Lu Meiniang also knew that she had no hope of achieving Dao, so she understood the meaning behind his words. She quickly returned the bow and said seriously, "Chief, please be careful on your journey."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Then we'll part ways here."
He pointed with his finger, and the array door was immediately opened. He leaped up and instantly arrived at the peak of Zhao You Mountain. It was nighttime, and he saw a river of stars crossing the sky. He instantly felt his chest relax. He looked at the reflection of the stars in the heavenly lake, and said, "Mr. Luo, I think you already know about my matter. Are you willing to come with me?"
After a while, a splash was heard, and Dragon Carp Luo Ren popped her head out of the water. She shouted, "This pool is too small, master must bring me along."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Then follow me."
Dragon Carp Luo Ren shook her body and turned into the size of a tadpole. Then, she turned into a black line and flew up from the water, entering his sleeve.
Zhang Yan called out to Zhang Boyan who had just come out of the formation door, then he circulated his Fa Li and shouted before charging into the clouds with his head raised. After that, he suddenly transformed into a ray of light and flew towards the south.
When Zhang Boyan saw this, he also used his escape technique and followed closely.
The two of them traveled for less than half a day, and in their field of vision, a continuous mountain range appeared. The ravines intersected, and the cliffs intersected. It looked extremely majestic.
Zhang Boyan was shocked, and thought, "If we go any further, we'll reach the mountain gate of Guangyuan Sect, where the Wind Stream Mountain is located. That's right, the manor master should be here to see Shen Yinfeng."
He thought for a while, and then caught up. He cupped his hands and said, "I'm a cultivator of Netherworld Spring Sect, and I have a grudge with Guangyuan Sect. It's not convenient for me to go."
Before Enlightened Shen Chong of Guangyuan Sect ascended, he could be said to be undefeated in the nine continents. At that time, he killed many disciples and elders of Netherworld Spring Sect, and because of that, a huge grudge was formed between the two sects. Although he was now a right-hand man of Zhang Yan's residence, he still felt that it was inappropriate to enter the enemy's mountain gate.
Zhang Yan thought for a while, and understood his concerns, and agreed, "Alright, then Zhang, please go ahead first. I'll catch up later."
Zhang Boyan immediately agreed, and with a dash, he turned into a yellow smoke and flew away, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Yan watched him leave, and then slowly pressed down on the cloud. He saw the fog in front of him, and knew that if he went any further, he would reach the mountain guarding formation. He took out a flying letter from his sleeve, and threw it into the air. It turned into a white light and flew into the mountain gate.
In the next moment, a cloud of smoke flew out of the mountain gate, and arrived in front of them in an instant. A handsome young cultivator dressed in white came out, and when he arrived in front of Zhang Yan, he bowed and said respectfully, "Are you Enlightened Zhang? The elder ordered me to come out and welcome you. "
Zhang Yan nodded, and said, "There's a hidden path in front of you."
Elder Shen didn't personally come out to welcome him, not because he treated him poorly, but because the flying letter told him that his whereabouts shouldn't be revealed, and that there was no need to make a big fuss.
The young cultivator turned around, and took out a talisman. He waved it in front of the mountain gate, and a golden light flew out from inside, and stopped in front of the two of them. He bowed again, and said, "Enlightened Zhang, please."
Zhang Yan stepped on the golden light, and the young cultivator waved the talisman again. The golden light retracted, and in an instant, they passed through the mountain gate's formation.
He looked around, and directly in front of him was a mountain path that led straight into the clouds, and he could vaguely see flying cranes dancing around it. On the mountain ridge, there were golden palaces, jade pavilions, and jade platforms. Hundreds of jade rivers were hanging down from the walls, and falling from thousands of feet in the sky. The sound was like thunder, and it was deafening, and the aura was extremely majestic. He couldn't help but nod to himself. Guangyuan Sect was indeed a great Xuanmen sect in the past, such a mountain gate was not something a small sect could compare to.
At this moment, another disciple flew over from afar, and said, "Shen Yong, the elder is waiting in the pavilion halfway up the mountain, quickly bring the esteemed guest there."
The young cultivator from before replied, "Understood."
He waved the talisman again, and Zhang Yan suddenly felt the scenery in front of him change. He arrived at a place where green bamboos were swaying, birds were singing, and in front of a cliff, it was spring. In the midst of the greenery, there was a jade white tree that was five feet tall, and its branches and leaves were wide open, shaped like a big crown, and looked like it was covered with frost and snow. Under the tree, there was an exquisite pavilion with a stone table and stone chairs.
Elder Shen was standing in front of the pavilion with two attendants, and when he saw his arrival, he cupped his hands and said, "Enlightened Zhang, I apologize for not going out to meet you, please forgive me."
Zhang Yan's body swayed, and he floated down. After he stood firmly on his feet, he smiled and returned the greeting, "Elder Shen is too polite."
The two of them chatted for a while more, and then walked into the pavilion, and as the guest and the host sat down, Elder Shen ordered the attendants to bring over fine wine, fruits, and vegetables, and then they started toasting.
After three rounds of wine, Zhang Yan put down the jade cup in his hand, and asked, "Elder Shen, is it convenient to talk here?"
Elder Shen stopped smiling, and he dismissed the attendants, saying, "This is my place of cultivation, and other than a few of my close disciples, no one comes in or out of here, so Fellow Daoist can rest assured."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly, took out the Earthly Golden Shaft Talisman from his sleeve, and placed it on the stone table, saying, "On my way back to the sect, it was Fellow Daoist Shen's talisman that helped me escape a disaster, and now it's returned to its rightful owner."
Elder Shen sighed, and said, "I've also heard about this. Fellow Daoist was able to escape from those few people, who in the same generation in the world can compare to you?"
Zhang Yan shook his head with a smile, and said, "So what? If I don't enter the grotto-heaven, I'm still a pawn in the end. "
He took out another jade bottle, handed it to Elder Shen, and said, "I still have important matters to attend to, and it's not convenient for me to stay here for long. There's a portion of Jun Yang's spiritual essence in this bottle, Fellow Daoist, please keep it well."
Although Elder Shen had an agreement with Zhang Yan before, when this spiritual essence was really placed in front of him, he couldn't help but breathe quickly, and he felt a burst of excitement.
He slightly calmed himself down, took the jade bottle, and said solemnly, "If it's as short as ten years, if it's as long as thirty years, I'll definitely have an explanation."
Zhang Yan stood up, and said, "Then let's set the deadline for thirty years, and at that time, I'll send a disciple over." He cupped his hands again, and said, "Farewell."
Elder Shen nodded, and he also stood up, and returned the greeting. Then, he said to the young cultivator, "Shen Yong, send Zhenren Zhang out of the mountain."
Zhang Yan's body swayed, and he floated up, stepping on a ray of light. In just a moment, the scenery in front of him suddenly changed, and he was already outside the mountain gate.
He stood in mid-air, and after thinking for a while, he took out a beautiful piece of jade, and said to a thin figure, "Fellow Daoist Xu, the calamity of Donghua Continent has already begun, and I want to send you to Dongsheng Continent for reincarnation. This way, you can protect fellow Daoist, and you can also avoid the calamity. What do you think?"
Daoist Xu was originally a disciple of Chongyue True Temple, and if he reincarnated, he would be taken by the disciples and elders of his own sect to enter Dao in the future. But how could this compare to becoming a disciple of Zhang Yan, so he didn't think too much about it. He cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist."
Zhang Yan put away the beautiful jade, and with a long roar, he leaped up into the sky like a rainbow, looking toward the east.
