In Fenglai Mountain, after Yuan Yang Sect's Shi couple was defeated, the eldest disciple Qiao Zhengdao came to guard this place. He continued to order his disciples to build altars outside the mountain to suppress the Devil Sect.
However, only half a month had passed, and the place that was originally suspected to be the Spirit Cave had moved more than a thousand miles to the northwest. Looking at the situation, it seemed that there would be more changes.
Qiao Zhengdao understood that before the Spirit Cave was completely formed, the Qi activity was unstable. He could only see its general direction, and no one knew where it would be in the end.
However, if he did that, most of his previous efforts would be wasted. But now, he stopped moving. He thought about it carefully and decided not to recklessly build more altars in front of him. He only built a few more altars in places where spiritual vigor was accumulated.
After a few days, he suddenly received a letter from the sect. His expression changed, and he immediately handed over the matter at hand to his disciple Bo Baisong. After taking care of it carefully, he returned to the sect alone as fast as he could.
Yuan Yang Sect's mountain was located in the middle of Dong Hua. It was called Mingbi Mountain. The mountain was shaped like a big plate, and there was a hole in the middle that contained a large lake. The water was clear and bright, and there were mountains surrounding it. Looking from the sky, it looked like a piece of flawless jade.
As the eldest disciple of Yuan Yang Sect, Qiao Zhengdao's escape technique was not his forte, but no one in the same generation could match him. Using his full strength, he returned here in less than half a day.
After entering the mountain, he didn't go back to his own cave residence, but went straight to Bao Yue Zhuguang cave.
After traveling for half a minute, he arrived at the entrance of the cave residence. He lowered his body and loudly said his name, asking to see him.
Not long after, a beautiful girl came out. She bowed to him, then waved her sleeves, and a glowing array door appeared on the ground. She smiled and said to him, "Senior Martial Brother, Master is asking you to come in."
"Thank you, Junior Martial Sister."
Qiao Zhengdao bowed, stepped through the array door, and entered the depths of the cave residence. He saw a woman in a hemp robe sitting cross-legged, and her hair was tied up in a high bun. She looked about thirty years old. Between his eyebrows was a heroic spirit. He hurriedly walked forward and bowed respectfully, "Disciple greets Zhenren Wen."
Zhenren Wen looked calm and said, "Righteous Path. Did you receive my letter? "
Qiao Zhengdao said, "I came precisely for this matter."
Perfected Master Wen nodded. He said amiably, "When this matter is decided, It's a bit rushed. You're a steady person, so I think you have other ideas. "
In the Yuan Yang Sect. There were only three people amongst this generation of disciples that didn't rely on Dao Companions and purely relied on their own cultivation to attain the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm, and Qiao Zhengdao was one of them. Thus, everyone regarded him extremely highly.
Qiao Zhengdao said in a deep voice, "Since this proposal was made by all of you Zhenren, I have no objections. However, ever since Zhenren Zhang took charge of the Qincang School, not even a drop of water has been leaked. They will definitely be fully prepared in advance. Once the Devil's Cave is out, they will definitely attack immediately. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to act before they do."
If the Devil Sect was given sufficient time to prepare, then they would definitely set up layers of formations in front of the Devil Cave to block the Celestial Sect of Wonders. If they really succeeded, even if the Celestial Sect of Wonders could take down this place, they would have to pay a heavy price.
In his opinion, with Zhang Yan's means, there was no way he would give the Devil Sect a chance to breathe. But if that was the case, they would not be able to intervene at all.
Instead, he agreed, "Righteous Sect, you're right. Zhang Yan seems to be a bold person, but he always plans before he acts. There are few flaws that can be found. Normally, there is no chance. But since all of you Zhenren have made this plan, how can there be no way to deal with it? Come forward and take a look at this thing. "
Qiao Zhengdao obeyed and walked forward.
Perfected Master Wen opened his palm and revealed a stack of talismans. He said, "These are the Earthly Divine Talismans made by Perfected Shi of the Taihao School. There are five of them in total. They can help you avoid the Devil Sect's prohibition and go straight to the Devil's Cave from underground."
Qiao Zhengdao said in surprise, "Oh, there's such a treasure?"
Just like the Celestial Sect of Wonders had built altars on the surface, the Devil Sect had long set up talismans in the underground where spiritual vigor was condensed to prevent the Celestial Sect of Wonders from breaking in from underground.
Previously, when Zhang Yan ordered the small sects to build altars, the reason why the Blood Soul Sect was so nervous was because they were afraid that he would break the prohibition.
If the disciples of the three sects could not pass through the surface, they could go underground and avoid the interception of the major sects. Then, they could indeed complete the task before the Qincang School.
Perfected Master Wen smiled and said, "Take it."
Qiao Zhengdao reached out and took it. Seeing that there were only five talismans, he could not help but frown and said, "This number is a little too little. Can I ask Perfected Shi for a few more?"
Perfected Master Wen smiled and said, "Don't think too much. Even these few talismans were made by Perfected Shi at the expense of his essence and blood. Moreover, these talismans are not without flaws. If Perfected Master Dongtian were to check them, he would not be able to hide it. Therefore, it would be useless even if there were more people."
Qiao Zhengdao's heart skipped a beat. It was hard to say for the Celestial Sect, but the Devil Sect was very likely to discover their whereabouts. If they could not reach the depths of the Devil's Cave in time, all their previous efforts would be wasted.
After a moment of silence, he said, "Then whether we succeed or not, it all depends on fate."
Perfected Master Wen did not deny it and said, "That is true. But under the Three Great Trials, no one can transcend outside. We all rely on the sects to survive. Now that there is a chance for us to prosper, we must firmly grasp it. Don't you think so?"
Qiao Zhengdao nodded solemnly. There were three Great Trials in a thousand years. The three sects that had existed for ten thousand years, Qincang, Yuxiao, and Shaoqing might be able to survive safely, but the Yuan Yang Sect might not be able to. Even if there was a slim chance, they had to fight for it. They could not let it go. As the eldest disciple of the sect, he was naturally responsible for this.
He bowed and said, "May I ask, Perfected Master, who are the people accompanying me?"
Perfected Master Wen said, "Shi Muhua of Taihao and Yuan Zirong of Nanhua. As for the sect, Shi Hanshan and Xiao Yue were defeated by Yang Poyu. After they recover from their injuries, they will also go with you to atone for their mistakes."
Hearing the names of these two people, Qiao Zhengdao was immediately relieved.
Although Shi, Yue, Taihao, and Nanhua were not the eldest disciples of the sect, they had been in the third realm for more than a hundred years. Their cultivation and divine abilities were not weak. If the three of them joined forces, they would not be a match for ordinary opponents. Even if they encountered Yuwen Hongyang, they had the confidence to fight.
Since the Shi couple were from the same sect, with their help, the Yuan Yang Sect was obviously the leader of this trip.
Perfected Master Wen warned again, "Although we know where the True Cave is, we cannot set up the altar on Mount Fenglai. If we suddenly stop, it will inevitably arouse suspicion."
Qiao Zhengdao said, "I will rush back now and urge the sect to set up the altar. I will not let the Devil Doctrine see through us."
After a few more words, he left the cave and returned to Mount Fenglai to take charge of the situation.
At the same time, Taihao and Nanhua kept sending people to the Eastern Devil Cave, as if they wanted to force the Devil Doctrine to come out and fight like the Yuan Yang Sect.
However, this was only for show. The two sects did not want to fight with the Devil Doctrine here. When the time was right, they would send their disciples to the north to seek the True Cave.
Anzhen Temple, Seven Stars Palace of Demon Subduing Mountain.
This was the place where the eldest disciple, Liang Fengshuang, cultivated. However, at this moment, the disciple of the sect, Jin Qiongniang, was arguing with a white-bearded Daoren in the main hall.
Jin Qiongniang said, "Elder Ping, Perfected Master Han has been here for ten days. This matter cannot be delayed any longer. We must give an explanation."
The white-bearded elder sighed, "Junior Sister Jin, I have already told you that in order to deal with the Devil Doctrine, Eldest Senior Brother has been cultivating in seclusion for many days. How could he come out at this time?"
Jin Qiongniang took a step forward and grabbed his sleeve. She said angrily, "I don't have to find Eldest Senior Brother. Senior Brother Pu has already taken out the first volume of the Exorcist Canon and lent it to Perfected Master Han. I will not pester you anymore."
The white-bearded elder shook his sleeve, but he could not get rid of it. He said helplessly, "The first volume only records some secret magic of the Devil Doctrine. Since it is a request from a fellow cultivator of the Profound Sect, I think it is fine to give it to him."
Jin Qiongniang said happily, "Then why don't you take it out now?"
The white-bearded elder sighed again and said, "Junior Sister, you also know that this is an important ceremony of the sect. The two Perfected Masters have not been involved in the outside affairs for a long time. Everything is decided by Eldest Senior Brother. How could I dare to make my own decision? When Eldest Senior Brother punishes me, will you bear the responsibility or will I? "
Jin Qiongniang could not help but feel bitter. After going around in circles, she came back to the same point. She said, "Perfected Master Han did not come empty-handed. He is willing to exchange a few magic arts with me. Is this not acceptable?"
Hearing this, the white-bearded Daoren showed a displeased expression. He said, "Our Anatta Temple has its own magic arts. Why do we need other people's magic arts? Junior Sister Jin, the arts you practice are not the orthodox ones of our sect. Of course, you don't know the power of our sect's magic arts. I will not blame you. But don't mention this again. "
With a sweep of the horsetail whisk in his hand, Jin Qiongniang felt her body tremble and was blown away by a gust of strong wind. She couldn't help but fly down the mountain. She repeatedly made hand seals, wanting to stabilize her body, but she couldn't do it. She only stopped when she was outside the palace gate.
She raised her eyebrows and wanted to go inside. But she realized that there was a restriction on the palace gate.
Helpless, she could only turn around and walk outside the decorated archway. She saw Han Wangke was still waiting outside the gazebo. She walked forward, bowed, and said with an apologetic tone, "Daoist Master Han, this time I made you come in vain."
Han Wangke knew that this matter was not big, but it was not small. If there was no one to take charge, it would be difficult. But Jin Qiongniang was too enthusiastic. It was not good to reject her. So he did not mind. Instead, he comforted her, "Fellow Daoist Jin, there is no need to rush this matter. I have nothing to do. Just wait a few more days for Perfected Master Liang to come out."
Hearing this, Jin Qiongniang felt even more guilty. Back then, her four fellow disciples received help from Zhang Yan. After refining the treasure banner, they were able to enter a celestial abode. Later on, two of them entered the state of Yuanying. Both of them received help from the banner. She had always wanted to return this huge favor.
Today, Han Wangke came to visit only to flip through the records of the Devil Sect's divine arts. If it were not for the fact that the last few volumes of the book recorded an extremely powerful divine art, he would even be able to look through it when he was looking for a disciple. It would be too unreasonable if he did not help with such a small matter.
She bit her lower lip and pondered. Suddenly, her beautiful eyes lit up. She thought to herself, How could I forget? Junior Sister Zhang has read most of our sect's Dao books. Why don't I go ask her?
