Half a day later, the Floating Wandering Heavenly Palace sent a boy to deliver the sect master's decree to the Clear Nether Heavenly Lake.
After receiving the decree, Zhang Yan calmed down. With this item in hand, he could gather people from the sect and attack the North Darkstar Continent.
After pacing around the room, he said to Jing You, "Go and call Zuocheng here."
Jing You bowed and left after receiving the order.
At this moment, the mirror in the small pot flashed, and the mirror spirit suddenly came out and said, "Master, Spiritual Masters Han and Cai and Peng Zhenren are outside the cave."
Zhang Yan knew that the three of them must have received the news first, so he thought for a moment and said, "Please go to the main hall, I will meet them in a moment."
Not long after, Han Zuocheng came to the cave, and after greeting, he said, "Master, do you have any instructions for me?"
Zhang Yan said, "In a few decades, the demon cave will appear. At that time, the Qincang School will have no time to care about other places. Now, the demon tribes of the North Darkstar Continent are restless, and many of them have entered Dong Hua. For the sake of safety, I have requested the sect master's decree to enter the North Darkstar Continent and kill the demon tribes to deter them. However, I need a disciple to go there to investigate first. Zuocheng, are you willing to go?"
Han Zuocheng didn't think that he would be used this time, and was a little excited. He hurriedly said, "I am willing to go, I am willing to go."
Zhang Yan looked at him and said, "Then you can leave in two days. Report to me if there is any news."
Han Zuocheng thought for a moment and said with some embarrassment, "Can I bring Xiyue with me?" He hurriedly explained, "I am not doing this out of selfishness, but Biyu Pavilion is originally from the Nanhua Sect, and is good at subduing demons …"
Zhang Yan smiled and waved his hand, saying, "I understand, but you two must remember to be careful if you go together."
Han Zuocheng nodded and bowed, saying, "Master, I will take my leave first."
Zhang Yan nodded and watched as she left the room. With the Flying Starpivot Palace in hand, even if this disciple encountered a Yuanying cultivator, he would still be able to escape.
Moreover, apart from a small number of Yao cultivators, most of them cultivated the Strength Path. Their movement techniques were usually extremely poor, so they were helpless against this thing.
He waved his sleeves and opened the array door. He stepped inside, and when he came out, he was already in the main hall.
When Han Wangke and the others saw him, they quickly stood up and greeted him.
After exchanging some pleasantries, everyone took their seats.
Han Wangke said, "Junior Brother Wen wants to lead the troops to attack the Northern Dark Demon Horde. I have nothing to do in the residence. I'm here to see if I can do anything. "
The last time he killed a few Devil Sect Elders, he had done quite a bit of meritorious service. The sect had already allowed him to pass on his skills and accept disciples.
However, he found out from Shen Baishuang that there were at least several decades before the appearance of the Devil's Cave, but he and Cai Rongju had less than a hundred years of lifespan left.
But once they left, there would be no one to take care of their disciples. Reincarnating into the Dao might not even be possible. Thus, he wanted to establish a good relationship with the Bright Nether Lake lineage, so that his disciples could get some help and it would be easier for them to do this in the future.
As for Peng Yuzhou, he was under the orders of the sect leader. If something happened to Zhang Yan, he could just summon him here with a talisman. Rather than being ordered around and losing face, he might as well come early. That way, he wouldn't have to hold back his anger.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "My two senior brothers and Elder Peng are all highly skilled cultivators. This time, we will need to rely on the three of you to attack the Northern Dark Continent."
Han Wangke relaxed and said, "I have something to tell Junior Brother Zhang. Junior Martial Brother Cai and I also have a Junior Martial Brother named Ge Tongshan. However, when Martial Uncle Shen brought us back last time, Ge Tongshan didn't show up. When Junior Uncle Shen brought us back last time, he went to Southern Cliff Continent, so we couldn't find him. We only came back last year and heard about the attack on the Northern Dark Continent. We also want to serve the sect, so I don't know if Junior Brother can agree to it. "
Zhang Yan asked, "Does Junior Uncle Shen know about this?"
Han Wangke hurriedly said, "If Junior Uncle Shen doesn't allow it, we wouldn't dare to tell Junior Brother. Junior Brother Ge's cultivation is also weak, not below mine."
Zhang Yan sighed. He had heard that White Sun Sect had many outstanding disciples in the past. Later, when they fought with Vicious for sect leader, many of their disciples died in battle. If they were all here now, he couldn't imagine what kind of scene it would be outside. He said, "Since it is Junior Uncle Shen's wish, then I can agree. When Senior Brother Ge has time, he can come to Bright Nether Manor to meet me."
Han Wangke was overjoyed. He stood up and bowed, saying seriously, "I thank Junior Brother Zhang on behalf of Junior Brother Ge. When we return, I will tell him to come pay a visit in person."
After Han Zuocheng returned to the manor and made some preparations, he told Yan Xiyue about the trip to the Northern Dark Continent. After the two became Dao companions, Yan Xiyue treated him as her master, so he naturally obeyed.
But before he left, he suddenly thought of something. He slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot. Junior Brother Zhao must be bored guarding Linqing Monastery. The sect wants to wipe out the Northern Dark Continent Demon Tribe. How can I tell him? Wait for me to write him a letter."
After writing the letter and sending it out, the couple set off on their journey.
But just as they left Bright Nether Manor, they saw a tall and majestic Daoist standing in the air. Han Zuocheng paused and said in surprise, "Senior Brother Zhao, why are you here?"
The cultivator in front of him was Luo Xiao's eldest disciple, Zhao Chong. He cupped his fists and said, "Junior Brother Han, I have been waiting for a long time. I heard that you went to the Northern Dark Continent to investigate. My master sent me here and ordered me to go with you and sister-in-law."
Han Zuocheng was a little puzzled and said, "What does Junior Uncle Luo mean?"
Zhao Chong was a little embarrassed and said, "I won't hide it from you, Junior Brother Han. My father, the Demon King of the Quan He tribe, is a descendant of the Celestial Wolf Tribe. He still has many tribesmen in the Northern Dark Continent. He might be able to help you on this trip."
Before Han Zuocheng could speak, Yan Xiyue whispered in his ear, "The Celestial Wolf Tribe is a descendant of the Celestial Demon Tribe. Senior Brother Zhao can be said to be a descendant of the Celestial Demon Tribe. With such an identity, it will be much easier for you to travel in the Northern Dark Continent. Senior Uncle Luo is very thoughtful."
When Han Zuocheng heard this, he naturally agreed. After a few polite words, he invited Zhao Chong to go with him.
The three of them continued on their journey. After traveling for more than ten days, they arrived at the banks of the Shang River. Looking to the west, they could see the majestic shadow of the Shen Du Peak. To the north, there were also undulating peaks. The mountains were like the sea, and the clouds were vast. This was the intersection of the Donghua Continent and the North Darkstar Continent.
Han Zuocheng gazed at the Northern Dark Continent and felt a sense of melancholy. He said, "My grandmother once said that she escaped alone when her clan faced a disaster. Because her cultivation was still shallow back then, she was unable to fly. As a result, she used more than ten years to walk out of the mountain realm and come to the Donghua Continent. Only then did she form ties with my grandfather in the mountains and have my father."
Yan Xiyue knew that his grandmother was a vixen, but she did not show any disdain. She grabbed his hand and stared deeply at him. "Husband, do you know where the old madam's hometown is?"
Han Zuocheng nodded. "I remember when I was young, I always talked about it. It was a place called the Huanghao Continent."
Yan Xiyue said gently, "Husband, why don't we go there after we check out the situation in the Ming Continent?"
Han Zuocheng said happily, "Alright, let's do that." With that, he looked back and saw Zhao Chong standing in the distance. He could not help but smile and call out to him, "Senior brother Zhao, come over quickly. The atmospheric winds in the Two World Mountains are fierce. Once I release my mount, we'll be able to get there faster."
Zhao Chong was an honest man, but he still had a discerning eye. Just Now, when the two of them were talking, he had tactfully stayed far away. However, the atmospheric winds were powerful, so unless they walked on the ground, it would be extremely difficult. As a result, he readily walked over and clasped his hands. "Thank you, junior brother and sister-in-law."
With a wave of the talisman in Han Zuocheng's hand, a huge red-feathered swallow over thirty meters long was released. The three of them climbed onto its back, and with a flap of its wings, it flew into the clouds with a chirp.
The swallow was a wondrous bird that Blue Feather Pavilion had raised with great effort using a secret technique of the Nanhua sect. It was extremely fast, and when it spread its wings, it could travel tens of thousands of kilometers in a day.
However, along the way, the three of them noticed that the mountain was filled with demonic aura. There were quite a number of demonic tribes heading towards the south. After a careful count, there were probably no less than ten thousand of them. Among them, there were even a few powerful demonic auras. A few of them noticed the movement in the sky and attempted to fly up to capture the three of them. Fortunately, the Great Yan was extremely agile in its flight and had chosen to travel to remote areas. Thus, they managed to avoid being caught.
Han Zuocheng was shocked. "No wonder master said that the daemon cultivation in the North Underworld is unstable. If these ten thousand daemons reach the Donghua Continent and no one takes care of them, who knows how many lives will be lost."
These daemons were fine in the mountains, and they could catch beasts, fish, and birds for food. However, if they went south to the Donghua Continent and could not find enough food to fill their stomachs, then they could only eat humans. Therefore, in the eyes of the daemons, they all deserved to be killed.
At this moment, Zhao Chong said, "Junior apprentice-brother, don't worry. Although there are many daemons, as long as we get rid of the leader, there is nothing to worry about. We just need to find out which daemons are the most powerful and send a letter to the higher-ups. Naturally, the chief and the daemons will take care of them."
Han Zuocheng said, "Senior apprentice-brother is right. However, there are so many daemons. If we can subdue all of them, it will be a great help in dealing with the daemonic cultivators."
Ten days later, the scenery in front of them changed. As far as the eye could see, there were towering peaks and clouds. The cliffs looked as if they had been carved by knives and axes. The trees were incomparably huge, and the sound of flowing water was deafening. At this moment, a black dot passed by in the sky. When they looked up, they saw that it was a Peng bird about three hundred feet in size. However, it seemed to see that the three of them were not to be trifled with, so it was also on guard. With a flap of its wings, it suddenly flew into the clouds, and then let out a long cry that gradually faded into the distance.
Han Zuocheng thought that this place should be the territory of the daemonic cultivators, so he did not dare to be too ostentatious. After discussing a few words with Yan Xiyue, he landed on a peak.
After landing, when the three of them came down, the Red Swallow chirped, and its huge body shrank, turning into the size of a peacock.
Yan Xiyue saw that this strange bird was a bit dispirited, clearly having worked too hard. She couldn't help but feel a bit of heartache. She hurriedly took out a few pills and placed them by the side of the bird's mouth. The Red Swallow was quite intelligent. It intimately rubbed against her sleeve, and then lowered its head to peck at the pills. Only then did it recover some of its spirit.
Zhao Chong took a few steps forward, arriving at the edge of the cliff in front of him. He looked down, and saw that the clouds were misty, and ancient trees towered into the sky. The lush greenery stretched to the ends of the horizon. The spiritual qi here was inferior to that of the Heavenly Lake of Clear Nether, but a single breath was enough to make him feel refreshed, as if he had returned to his mother's womb. He turned around and said, "Junior apprentice-brother, wait here with sister-in-law for a moment. I will go investigate."
Han Zuocheng thought for a moment. Now was not the time to show off. Zhao Chong was more convenient than him in both appearance and status, so he handed over a talisman and said, "Thank you for your trouble, senior apprentice-brother. This is the Starpivot Flying Palace Talisman. Take it to protect yourself."
Zhao Chong declined a few times, but when he saw that the other party was determined to give it to him, he accepted it. He cupped his fists in salute, and then rode his pill fiend, leaping down the peak.
