Zhang Yan stayed on Huandan Peak for four months and absorbed more than half of the hidden Qi in the mountain. He felt that he could stop, so he retracted his mana.
Yin Zhaokong sensed this place and knew that there was at least thirty percent of the Qi of the earth left under the mountain. He nodded to himself. With this remnant Qi, if there was no external invasion, after thousands of years, this place could become a blessed land again.
He had been cultivating on Huandan Peak since he was young. Even though he was about to leave, he could not bear to see it become a dead land.
After Zhang Yan put away Yan Zhu's bottle, he sat down to regulate his breathing.
After a while, his mana recovered. He stood up and bowed to Yin Zhaokong, "Thank you for waiting. I still have something to do, so I might have to wait a little longer."
Yin Zhaokong smiled and returned the greeting, "Even though I am in a hurry to leave this world, but I have waited for hundreds of years, a little longer is not a big deal."
Zhang Yan nodded and flicked his finger. A talisman ray shot into the sky.
About an hour later, a beam of light came from the south and landed on the peak of the mountain. The light dissipated and Shen Zixin walked out in her white robe. She had no makeup on her face, but her face was radiant like a lotus under the moon.
She came forward and bowed, "Greetings, Daoist friends."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I've invited you here today because of the matter that we've agreed upon previously."
He waved his sleeve lightly and a small bottle flew over. This was the Qi of Earth Yin that he had split previously. It could be given to Li Mountain Sect to return the favor.
Shen Zixin took it, and as soon as she touched it, she knew that the Spiritual Essence inside was not small. She hurriedly expressed her thanks.
She felt a little pity and thought to herself, "Zhenren Zhang's aptitude is great. He will definitely become a grotto-heaven in the future. If it wasn't because the Qi of Earth Yin is too important and Li Mountain Sect can't compete with others, I would rather keep this favor for the future. "
Yin Zhaokong asked, "Daoist friend, I have been in the mountain these few days and do not know the situation outside. Does Daoist friend know how Cangxiu and He Hai Sects are doing?"
Shen Zixin hesitated for a moment. She glanced at Zhang Yan and said concisely, "The mountain gate has been destroyed. All disciples are to disperse. "
That day, the elders of the two sects attacked the mountain. However, he had underestimated Yin Zhaokong's abilities, and he had also made plenty of preparations in the sect. He had originally come with an aggressive momentum, but in the end, he returned in defeat.
Of course, Jiang Heng of Yuan Yang Sect would not let go of such a good opportunity. Join forces with the cultivators from the sect who came to help. All of them were killed on the way. Then, they invaded the mountain gate.
However, he was afraid that Yuxiao would be envious and find an excuse to take the essence, so he distributed some to the disciples of the various sects who entered this world. Even Li Mountain Sect received a little. Since she received benefits, she was not willing to speak behind their backs.
When Yin Zhaokong heard this, he sighed and cupped his hands, "Thank you for telling me."
After the gathering of Qi, Zhang Yan had no intention to stay any longer. He discussed with Yin Zhaokong for a while, then they rode on the traveling light together and headed towards the entrance of the realm.
A few hours later, the two of them passed through the small world and arrived at the place where Du Chen Sect was staying.
There were disciples on duty in the outer world. When they saw the Sect Master, they were all happy and immediately reported it.
When Lin Zhaofeng and Mo Zhaoyue heard about it, they hurried over to greet him. After saying goodbye to each other, they thanked Zhang Yan profusely.
Zhang Yan said a few humble words, and seeing that there was nothing else important, he was about to bid farewell and leave. However, Yin Zhaokong called out to him and took out a jade slip from his sleeve. He handed it over and said, "Since Fellow Daoist likes to collect Erosion Inscriptions, then this poor Daoist will make the decision to give this to Fellow Daoist. You must accept."
When Lin Zhaofeng saw the jade scroll, his expression changed. However, when he saw the Sect Master's solemn expression, he hesitated to speak.
Zhang Yan smiled, took it, and put it in his sleeve. He cupped his hands and said, "It looks ordinary, but since Fellow Daoist is sincerely giving it to me, I will accept it."
Yin Zhaokong sincerely said, "My sect is indebted to Fellow Daoist's help to escape from that cage. A mere jade scroll is not enough to repay you. In the future, if you need my Du Chen Sect's help, you only need to send a message."
Zhang Yan nodded and bade farewell before leaving in a streak of light.
Lin Zhaofeng looked at the rainbow in the sky and turned back, saying, "Senior Brother, what you gave to Daoist Zhang is the jade scroll that Master used to carry around with him?"
Yin Zhaokong sighed, "Ever since Master obtained this item, it has been in my Du Chen Sect for nearly a thousand years. Many elders and fellow disciples have borrowed it to study, but no one has been able to see anything. Perhaps it is not fated with us, so I might as well give it to Fellow Daoist Zhang as a favor."
This item was originally obtained by the previous Sect Master from the Secret Palace after the destruction of Shanghua Sect. However, the contents of the scroll were written in eroded text, and he had never been able to comprehend it. Later on, when it was passed down to him, he still couldn't see anything.
It was only when he heard that Zhang Yan was searching for eroded text that he remembered this item. However, he didn't immediately give it to Zhang Yan, only preparing to take it out at a critical moment as a favor.
Lin Zhaofeng chuckled and said, "That's true. You have to give up before you gain. I've heard about Fellow Daoist Zhang's status in the Dark Azure Sect. Senior Brother, do you know that this fellow Daoist has an impressive background? In terms of status, he's only below those Reverend Mammoth Xiang. I've heard that he's already searching for a way to break through to the next realm.
Yin Zhaokong's eyes lit up, saying, "I wonder what the Elephant Sage looks like. Will we have the luck to see what it looks like?"
Lin Zhaofeng said, "We will have to stay here for a long time. I think there will be a chance."
The Crossing Dust Sect wanted to establish a new branch, but it couldn't be done overnight. They still needed to send people to the East Sea to scout and choose a place to stay. Even if it was a short period of time, it would still take several years. During this period, they would need to be neighbors with Qincang School.
Yin Zhaokong looked down the mountain. Under the rising sun, the mountains reflected a golden glow, showing off the endless beautiful scenery. He said with a double meaning, "We can't do it, but the disciples of the younger generation can."
In the northeast of Longyuan Lake, there were three continents: Falling Night, Yanlong, and Shenlei, all under the name of the Dengyang Chen Clan.
Among them, the Yanlong Continent was the residence of the branch family disciples, while the Falling Night Continent was the place where the Chen Clan's direct descendants gathered.
As for the Shenlei Continent, it was under the Jun Ming Grotto-Heaven of Qingyuan Guanghua. It was the place where Perfected Chen cultivated. Apart from a few nephews that he valued, ordinary people were not allowed to enter.
But today, one of the top ten disciples, Chen Feng, was summoned to the continent by a decree.
The highest point of the Shenlei Continent was the Unfalling Mountain. This mountain was also a Dharma Treasure. After being refined by the Second Generation Sect Leader, the Qi surged through the clouds and pierced through the sky. Therefore, there were often turbulence around the mountain, rocks spiraling, some even came from beyond the Second Heaven. After a long time, it became a natural barrier. Therefore, when he was on his way here, he had to be careful.
After climbing up the mountain stairs. He walked into a grass hut. He saw Daoren lying on a bamboo couch with his back facing him. He seemed to be sleeping soundly.
Chen Feng bowed and said, "Second Uncle. Do you have any orders for me to come here? "
Daoren's body moved. He seemed to be awakened. He slowly sat up and looked at Chen Feng with sleepy eyes. "Nephew, you are here."
He slowly took out a letter from beside the couch and placed it on the table in front of him. "It's from Perfected Chen. Take a look." Chen Feng's expression was solemn.
Chen Feng's expression was solemn. Since the clan had put so much effort into exchanging for him, it must not be a small matter. He stepped forward to take it, and after reading it, he inadvertently frowned. The content was unexpected. The Dingyang Zhou Clan wanted to ask his Chen Clan to borrow Junyang's Spiritual Essence and exchange it with two Heavenly Hundred Reincarnation Mountains. But … why did he have to decide this matter?
He was originally a person who didn't care about trifles and did things casually. However, as his status rose, he couldn't help but have more concerns.
He asked cautiously, "May I know what the Zhou Clan wants to do by borrowing Jun Yang's essence energy?"
Daoren said slowly, "I shouldn't be the one to say this. When the time comes, nephew, you will know. However, since nephew needs to deal with this matter, I will give you some pointers. There are many uses for Jun Yang's essence energy. However, there is a way to create a heavenly passage that requires this item. Do you understand?"
Chen Feng listened and nodded his head.
The Xuanmen aristocratic families moved around frequently. Many clans were related by marriage.
Although the Chen Clan and the Dingyang Zhou Clan didn't have such a relationship, they still had many interactions.
Just from the letter alone, it was clear that a junior of the Zhou Clan wanted to advance further and came to borrow Jun Yang's essence energy.
However, when he thought about it again, he felt that it wasn't normal. The purpose behind it wasn't as simple as it seemed on the surface.
He read the letter again and asked, "Does Perfected Chen have anything else to say?"
Daoren's eyelids drooped. He looked like he could fall asleep at any moment. He said, "Perfected Chen only said that you will be in charge of this matter. He didn't say anything else."
Chen Feng pondered for a moment. He knew about the Thirty-six Mountain Treasures. They were treasures that the clan had refined for thousands of years. They were only missing two Heavenly Hundred Revolutions Stones, and they would be completed. They were very important to the Chen Clan. It seemed possible, but when he thought about it again, he was shocked.
Although he didn't know how much Jun Yang's essence energy the clan had, from what the Zhou Clan needed, the clan might not be able to take it out. They would definitely ask the sect for it. With Perfected Chen's reputation, they might be able to lend it out. However, if they gave it to the Zhou Clan, if there were cultivators in the sect who wanted to create a heavenly passage, it would be delayed.
And the people who had the chance to create a heavenly passage were the eldest disciple, Qi Yuntian. The second was the previous head of the ten great disciples, the current side hall master of the Du Zhen Hall, Zhang Yan.
As for Qi Yuntian, he had entered the spirit point to cultivate. No matter what he needed, it was impossible for him to lend it out. Then, the only person who could be implicated in this matter was Zhang Yan.
He looked up at Daoren and said, "Second Uncle, if we want to do this, we have to inform Perfected Zhang."
Elder Chen didn't express his opinion. "Do what you think should be done. The clan won't interfere."
Chen Feng was suddenly in a dilemma. Although he was one of the ten great disciples in the sect, now that Zhang Yan had entered the Du Zhen Hall, their positions in the sect were very different. If he were to step forward, he wouldn't be able to do anything.
He thought to himself, "Looks like I need to ask Senior Huo to step forward."
As he thought of this, an idea flashed in his mind. Maybe Perfected Chen had this intention when he asked him to do this.
After Huo Xuan became the side hall master, he used the excuse of seclusion and didn't come out for many years. Even Chen Niangzi couldn't see him. At this stage, the Chen Clan didn't have many ways to restrict him.
Especially when Elder Chen was about to be reincarnated, no one dared to ask for trouble.
Chen Feng thought about it and felt that it was worth a try. He raised his head and said, "Since Perfected Chen has entrusted it to me, I will do my best!"
