After receiving Xie Zongyuan's invitation, everyone boarded his Dragon Tooth Flying Ship.
This flying ship was worthy of being used by Xuan Light Realm cultivators. Its speed was not inferior to flying swords. In less than a day, a palace with green tiles and vermillion pillars appeared in the distance.
From afar, there was an auspicious aura rising from the roof of the palace and connected with the auspicious clouds in the sky. A ray of light broke through the clouds and sprinkled down, illuminating the three jade steps in front of the palace like frozen water clouds, sparkling and translucent. The green smoke in front of the copper incense burner was also illusory and blurred.
Xie Zongyuan exclaimed, "Eh, the spiritual aura is soaring to the sky. This Daoist Peng's cultivation is very high. When he uses his xuan technique, he can actually sense the heavens and the clouds accompany him. I'm afraid that our Qincang School will soon change its name to the Ten Great Daoist Masters."
Zhao Zhen snorted and interrupted, "How can it be so simple? It seems like a step, but the difference is like heaven and earth. My granduncle once said that if Daoist Peng can cross this barrier within a hundred years, then it's fine. If he can't, then he probably won't have any hope in this life. "
Although Xie Zongyuan didn't agree, he didn't dare to say more before they were about to enter the Guardian Palace. He didn't want Daoist Peng to hear him and cause more trouble.
Zhao Zhen thought his words were sharp and hit the nail on the head, so he couldn't help but feel proud.
Zhang Yan found it funny. Every time someone brought up a topic, Zhao Zhen would always come up to oppose them. The more he opposed, the more his fighting spirit rose. His words were also somewhat twisted, which was really annoying. If it wasn't for the fact that they needed to rely on this person to lead the way, they would have been kicked out long ago.
Seeing the flying ship arrive, a beautiful Daoist nun with a straight face came up to greet them. She cupped her hands and said, "Senior brothers, are you also here to cultivate in the demon cave?"
Liu Tao and Zhang Yan looked at each other. Liu Tao asked curiously, "Other than us, could it be that someone else has come here?"
The Daoist nun smiled and said, "Senior brother is right. Five days ago, Daoist Master Yan's disciple, Senior Brother Fang Zhen, came here and said that he wanted to take you into the demon cave to cultivate. Three days ago, several senior brothers from the Yunlang Han Clan also came here. Including you, there are more than twenty people. "
The Han Family of Yunlang?
Even Xie Zongyuan was slightly moved. The Han Clan of Yunlang was one of the Five Great Families, and it was an aristocratic family among the aristocratic families of Qincang school. It seemed that the disciples of such a family rarely came into contact with the disciples of their own sects. He had not expected that they would come to the Devil's Cave to cultivate this time. It seemed that they wanted to attack the three pools to increase their cultivation as soon as possible.
The Taoist nun continued, "The Sea's Eye Gate opens on the first day of the month and opens on the fifteenth. I'm afraid you'll have to wait for a few more days. How should I address you? I can go in and clean the house and prepare the vegetarian meal. "
Xie Zongyuan was just about to answer when Zhao Zhen suddenly sneered, "There's no need to say the name, I'm afraid I'll end up eating my tongue tonight."
The Taoist nun was startled when she heard this. Her face blushed and her eyes were filled with embarrassment. She didn't say a word as she turned around and walked inside.
Xie Zongyuan shook his head and said, "I didn't expect Fang Zhen and the others to also come."
Zhang Yan's eyes flickered and he said, "It's not strange. Fang Zhen is also at the Third Layer of Clear Qi. They must know that the sect is about to attack the three pools, so they also came here to cultivate. Moreover, everyone knows that Spiritual Masters Zhu and Yan are very close friends. Zhuang Bu Fan is also Spiritual Master Zhu's disciple. He has been suppressing the Devil's Cave for sixteen years and not a single demon has escaped, so he should be very familiar with the situation inside.
"Suppressing?" Zhao Zhen's face was full of disdain when he heard this. He curled his lips and said, "They're just using this as an excuse to openly cultivate their supernatural power. If it wasn't for the Guardian Palace's great formation, the demon inside would have escaped long ago. Why would they need him to suppress it? It doesn't matter if he's missing or not. "
Xie Zongyuan coughed and glanced at Long Tao. The latter immediately understood and said, "This is my first time coming to the Guardian Palace. I wonder what kind of scenery there is. Why don't Brother Zhao take me around for a tour?"
He didn't wait for Zhao Zhen's reply and dragged him away.
Cheng An didn't make a sound along the way. After hesitating for a moment, he also followed Long Tao.
Xie Zongyuan called Zhang Yan to a secluded corner and said, "We're not familiar with the path under the Eye of the Sea. The only one we can count on is Zhao Zhen. However, this person likes to talk big and is impetuous. I really don't know if he can shoulder this responsibility."
Seeing that Xie Zongyuan was also angry, Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Don't doubt the people you use, don't use the people you doubt. Moreover, this person's words are not without purpose. He's just sharp-tongued. Senior Brother can just treat it as a joke."
Xie Zongyuan nodded and said, "What I'm worried about now is that Fang Zhen and the others know that we're going to the Devil's Cave. They might try to sabotage us."
Zhang Yan understood the meaning behind his words and thought for a moment before saying in a low voice, "We have to be on our guard."
Right at this moment, the Daoist nun who had left earlier turned back. However, she was expressionless at this moment. "Senior Brothers, I've already checked and the guest rooms are all full. The Guardian Palace is also filled with female cultivators, so it's not convenient for us to receive guests. All of you are cultivators who eat and drink Qi, so I presume you won't mind sleeping outside for a night, right?"
Xie Zongyuan frowned. He didn't really care about where he stayed. However, Fang Zhen and the others were clearly staying in the hall while they stayed outside. If they met another day, wouldn't they be ridiculed by others and tarnish the Xie Clan's reputation?
Zhang Yan felt that this was also a good idea. It would prevent them from meeting Fang Zhen and the others. Who knew what kind of trouble might occur.
At this moment, he heard someone call out in pleasant surprise from behind, "Senior Brother Zhang."
Zhang Yan couldn't help turning around and saw Qin Nan standing not far away. Her pretty face was flushed and she wore a Daoist robe similar to the Daoist nun's. He couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Junior Sister Qin? Are you cultivating here? "
Qin Nan's face was full of joy as she replied, "Yes."
She thought for a moment, then turned to the Daoist nun and said, "These Senior Brothers are guests from afar. Since the guest rooms are all full, prepare a side hall for them to rest in."
The Daoist nun lowered her head and respectfully replied, "Yes, Martial Aunt."
Xie Zongyuan chuckled and said, "Junior Brother, since you've met an old friend, you must have a lot to talk about. I'll go take a walk elsewhere."
With a wave of his sleeve, he walked away in a carefree manner.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "How do I address Junior Sister and Immortal Peng?"
Qin Nan was a little embarrassed and said, "I was originally Senior Brother Chen's disciple in name. Later, when the patriarch saw me, he took me in as his last disciple."
Zhang Yan carefully looked at Qin Nan and sighed, "Junior Sister is really lucky."
The two of them had only been separated for about half a month, but he didn't expect Qin Nan to already be at the peak of the first tier of the Clear Qi realm. Moreover, it seemed that she would soon break through to the second tier. This speed of cultivation was really incredible.
Qin Nan stared at Zhang Yan with her eyes wide open and said, "Senior Brother, you also came to the Devil's Cave to cultivate?"
Zhang Yan replied, "Yes, Junior Sister, have you been there before?"
Qin Nan nodded vigorously, "Yes, I've been cultivating there every day for the past few days."
Zhang Yan suddenly understood. No wonder Qin Nan's cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds. So this was the reason. Thinking of this, he was moved and asked, "Since Junior Sister has been here before, do you know the path under the Eye of the Sea?"
Qin Nan thought for a moment, and after a moment, her beautiful eyes lit up and she said, "Senior Brother, please wait a moment."
She turned and left. After about the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, she rushed back and handed over a one-foot square silk map with both hands. He saw that it was filled with densely packed and indistinguishable red lines. "This is the map I saw in Master's study. I've made a copy, but I don't know if it's useful. Senior Brother, you might as well take it."
