After Wei Zihong decided to go to the West Sea True Dragon's residence, he didn't leave immediately. He now saw this small world as something in his pocket and was prepared to return to the mountain gate and present it to his master together with the Dragon Residence. Thus, he had some considerations. If he left and this place was taken away by Yuxiao, it wouldn't be appropriate.
Thus, before he left, he specially summoned the Palace Master of Cicada Palace, Xiao Shen, and ordered her to guard this place tightly while he was away.
Xiao Shen, however, was extremely worried and said, "Zhenren's order, Xiao Shen will naturally obey. However, once Zhenren leaves, if Yuxiao sends people again, I'm afraid Cicada Palace won't be able to hold them off. Why don't Zhenren inform the Palace Master of Du Zhen Hall to send a few more Shangzhen here to hold the fort?"
Wei Zihong learned from Bao Yang Roar that his master was still outside the Virtual Sky and couldn't care about this place for the time being. However, he didn't say it out loud and only said, "Such a small matter, there's no need to alarm my master. I have a method that can help you get through this."
He took out a pearl from his sleeve and said, "This is the Double Image Pearl, it can reflect my appearance inside. Using mana, it can be released. It looks no different from a real person, people who aren't close to me won't be able to see anything wrong. Every few days, you can hold a banquet for cultivators and place this pearl on the banquet. If they see me, they will be afraid of the power of the Killing True Weapon and won't easily come to attack."
Xiao Shen took a few steps forward and kept the Double Image Pearl. She bowed and said, "Xiao Shen obeys, I only hope that Zhenren will leave soon."
Wei Zihong nodded and said, "Palace Master Xiao, don't worry. Since all of you have entered my sect, I won't abandon you."
After everything was settled, on the second day, he and Su Yihua snuck under the sea and left the Fengling Ocean, heading west.
In this South Sea, the cultivators here were either exterminated by Yuxiao or escaped to the Fengling Ocean. Therefore, there weren't many cultivators along the way. They only needed to be careful to avoid Yuxiao's eyes and ears, and naturally arrived at the West Sea smoothly.
At this place, because it was close to the central pillar continent, it could be considered the Shaoqing sect's territory. They no longer had to worry about the Yuxiao school. Hence, the two of them floated to the surface of the sea and released the ocean boat to move forward.
After flying for more than ten days, the two of them suddenly saw a spectacular scene. The sea was surging, the waves were swirling, and there were tens of thousands of porpoises swimming in the same direction, stretching for hundreds of miles.
As for the leader, it was a Beast Cultivator that had taken human form. He had a boorish appearance and was dressed in coarse clothes. His hair was tied into a bun.
He seemed to have seen the two of them and shouted towards the back. The many porpoises actually all stopped after hearing his shout and did not move again. This person waved his hand again, and the others moved aside in unison. Then, he arrived in front of the two and respectfully cupped his hands. He said, "This little demon is rude, blocking the path of the two masters, it is really disrespectful."
Su Yihua could not help but click his tongue in wonder. Although the North Nether Continent's demon cultivators had entered the path of Dao, most of them seemed to be uncivilized. They did not know etiquette and were extremely rude. Moreover, the West Sea was a desolate place, so it was rare to see such a well-behaved demon cultivator.
Wei Zihong was also a little surprised and asked, "Fellow Daoist. Where are you all going? "
The demon cultivator cupped his hands again and said, "Reporting to the two masters, I am a cultivator here, Yu Jia An. On the first day of next month, Zhenren Li will preach on the sea. It is a rare opportunity, so I brought my disciples and grand-disciples to listen to the preaching."
Wei Zihong asked, "Who is this Zhenren Li?"
Yu Jia An said, "This Zhenren Li's name is Mi Xiu. He came here to preach 200 years ago. Regardless of whether it is a human cultivator, anyone can go and listen to the preaching. He is a Daoist. If the two masters wish to go, go eight thousand miles to the west and find a place called 'Yanzhong Continent'."
When he spoke, his attitude was humble, but when he talked about Zhenren Li, his words revealed a sense of respect.
Wei Zihong asked him a few more questions before letting him go. Then he turned around and asked, "Do you know this Zhenren Li?"
Su Yihua shook his head and said, "I haven't been here for more than 200 years to prevent people from finding out that the Dragon Mansion is here. I haven't heard of this Zhenren Li's name. However, there is a flute island thousands of miles away. There are many cultivators living there, and it seems that they originally moved here from the Central Pillar Continent. This person may have some relationship with them. "
At this point, he paused for a moment and said in deep thought, "According to what that little demon said, the Dragon Manor is a bit close to it. However, that place is just a vast sea, and I have never seen any Yanzhong Continent."
Wei Zihong said, "Then it is on the way. Why don't we go and have a look?"
Su Yihua was also a little worried, so he immediately nodded in agreement.
The two of them walked west for half a day, and sure enough, they saw an island. It was very wide, more than a thousand miles from north to south. In the north, there was a high cliff, steep like a pillar, standing majestically. Only the top was flattened, revealing a square platform. Below it, there were thousands of towering trees, lush and green. From time to time, flocks of birds would fly by, chirping in the air, showing a thriving vitality.
This island seemed to have stood there for thousands of years, but in their eyes, they could see something different.
Su Yihua concluded, "This place was built by piling up earth and stones, and there was a Spirit Gathering Formation outside. However, to build such a boundary, even if it was Zhenren Yuanying, I'm afraid it would take hundreds of years."
Wei Zihong looked back and forth and said, "This place looks like it is going to open a door on the sea and build a mansion."
Su Yihua asked, "Zhenren Wei, do you want to go and meet him?"
Wei Zihong shook his head and said, "It is a coincidence that this person is here. Since it has nothing to do with us, let's not care about him. I will first follow you to that Long Manor. Isn't this person going to preach next month? If it is suitable then, we can come and visit."
Su Yihua said, "Zhenren's words make sense."
The two of them didn't disturb that Priest Li, and went around this place, heading southwest for thousands of miles before diving into the sea.
After a few hours, Wei Zihong gradually felt that the water was as heavy as a mountain, so he summoned a protective treasure light to protect his body. He focused his eyes and looked down, and saw that there were mountains and peaks, as well as valleys and ravines, crisscrossing and uneven.
At this time, Su Yihua leaped forward and turned around a hill. He also followed, and just as he went around it, he saw a cave not far away. The mouth of the cave was filled with air, and beads of foam flew everywhere. There were several strange fish that looked like turtles and clams, and their bodies were flat, lying on the edge of the cave, swallowing and spitting. When they saw the two of them coming, they shook their bodies and made way.
Wei Zihong said, "Did you raise this thing?"
Su Yihua transmitted his voice and said, "That's not it. These few monsters sensed the benefits of the Long Manor, so they came to absorb the spiritual opportunity. I chased them away several times, but they didn't leave. However, I saw that they could come and go without any hindrance, and they often kill monsters everywhere, so I let them go. I only used them to guard the Long Manor, and after that, nothing happened."
Wei Zihong took a look and said, "This thing seems to be a clam recorded in the [Water Essence Strange Records]. I heard that its body is as hard as steel, and mana can't harm it. However, it only feeds on rotten grass, so it isn't a vicious creature."
Su Yihua sighed, "Zhenren Wei's knowledge is vast, I can't compare to you."
He raised his hand and pointed ahead, "The Long Manor is inside, but if we go further, there will be poisonous underground fire, and we will need to use a talisman to cross it."
Wei Zihong said, "That's easy."
He waved his sleeve and summoned a reed mat. There was a flash of spiritual light on it, and the water flow was slightly divided. He first sat on it, then called Su Yihua up.
After sitting down, they used their mana to move forward. As soon as they entered the cave, thick smoke and turbid dust surged towards them. There was actually blue fire mixed inside, and red spots could be seen on the stone walls on both sides. There was a bright yellow spiritual light that flickered like clouds, sometimes bright and sometimes dark.
The path in the cave was winding and rugged, but the two of them had high mana, so they didn't encounter any obstacles. This time, they didn't go far before they entered a spacious cave. There were pearls embedded in the walls on both sides, shining brightly. At this time, the water flow gradually receded, revealing a row of thirty feet long jade stairs. In the middle of the stairs, there was a copper ring and a golden plate. Every time a drop of water splashed down, there would be a tinkling sound.
Wei Zihong looked for a while and said, "You really put in a lot of effort here."
Su Yihua smiled bitterly, "When I was trapped under the sea, I only focused on cultivation and wanted to escape as soon as possible. I didn't have the time to do this. This wasn't built by me, it was originally here. I don't know whose cave it was."
Wei Zihong said, "If we go further west, we will reach the West Three Continents. Maybe it was left behind by a senior that day. But that Cang Long was originally the Dragon God of the Sea, and had countless concubines. Maybe this is one of its secret hideouts."
Su Yihua heard this and smiled, "Maybe it's true. Otherwise, why would the Dragon Residence move to this place!"
The two of them talked as they walked. Finally, they arrived in front of a stone door. It was more than ten feet tall, and there were patterns of ripples and clouds on the door. When the pearl light shone on it, it seemed to be floating. At this moment, it was half closed, leaving only a small gap.
Su Yihua stood in front of the door and said, "Zhenren, this is it."
Wei Zihong stepped forward and gave a light push. The stone door rumbled as it moved inwards. The divine eye on his forehead opened, and a ray of light swept past. Seeing that there were no restrictions, he stepped inside. After passing through two layers of palace halls, he saw another two sets of stone doors. However, more than half of them were already broken, and they were extremely broken.
Su Yihua sighed, "That year, the mountain gate detected the plot of the clan and ordered Zhenren Qi to lead the attack. The five Zhenrens in the clan had no choice but to sacrifice their lives to activate the killing sword to break this door."
Wei Zihong did not say anything and stepped inside. When he reached the inner room, he realized that he was standing on a copper plate with a circumference of a thousand feet. In the middle of it, there was a huge stone tablet. There was nothing around it except for a thick chain hanging down from the top, leading to the dark depths below.
Su Yihua followed closely behind. He pointed below and said, "Zhenren, the remains of the Azure Dragon should be below. However, every time I wanted to go down to take a look, I would feel my mind tremble and I could not control myself. Once, I tried to force myself to get close, but I could only see a small part of it."
Wei Zihong pondered for a moment, then took out a golden mirror from his sleeve and shone it downwards. In the blink of an eye, only an inky black cloud appeared in the mirror, and nothing else could be seen. When he wanted to take a closer look, he heard a cracking sound, and the mirror in his hand actually shattered into pieces and fell to the ground.
Su Yihua was shocked, "Zhenren, this …"
Wei Zihong waved his hand and smiled, "It's fine. Seems like this Dragon Monarch's remains are here. Legend has it that when he was born, he was ten thousand feet long and there was a pearl under his chin called 'Qi Yan'. It could break through all illusions and see through the netherworld. With this thing here, my treasure mirror can't shine on him."
