"Brother … What should we do?"
The dilapidated courtyard was already calm, as if the phenomenon that had appeared a moment ago was an illusion.
Yang Xiaochan wiped away her tears and stood beside Yang Jian. In just a moment, she seemed to have matured a lot. Her voice was a little hoarse, but her gaze was firm.
Yang Jian pondered for a while and said, "You and Chu Qian will gather information in the Primordial World. I'll make a trip to the Celestial Court."
"The Celestial Court?" Yang Xiaochan wanted to say that "she" wanted to go too, but she held back the words. "Alright, I'll go and gather information."
Yang Jian turned to look at Ao Xinke. Just as he was about to speak, Ao Xinke nodded and stood behind Yang Xiaochan.
She could guess Yang Jian's thoughts. Yang Jian's eyes were filled with gratitude. Ao Xinke shook her head gently and stood quietly.
Actually, Yang Jian felt a little guilty.
Ao Xinke had yet to marry into the family, but she had to work hard for the Yang family. It was really wrong for her.
Therefore, Yang Jian would not let Ao Xinke accompany him to the Celestial Court. That was Yang Jian's bottom line and also Yang Jian's pride as a man.
He would go through mountains of knives and seas of fire. She would handle the family affairs. There would be time under the moon in the field of flowers, and they would be reunited under the moon.
"Father shouldn't have any good friends before, but Mother should have a few old friends," Yang Jian said. "The oath I made just now has alarmed the Primordial World. The Heavenly Dao is paying attention. The three of you just need to wander around the Middle Continent. Someone should be looking for you."
Yang Xiaochan thought for a while and asked, "Brother, what about you?"
"Of course, I'll cover up the truth. I'll go now. If there's anything I can't make up my mind, ask Xinke."
Yang Jian sighed softly and did not say anything. He turned around and walked out of the courtyard, looking at Chu Qian.
"Second Master, please be careful …"
"Chu Qian?"
"This servant is here."
"Take good care of your qin," Yang Jian said with a complicated look in his eyes.
If he rescued his mother, would Chu Qian recognize her? If she recognized it, how would she explain it to her mother? If she didn't, she would always feel some regret in her heart.
Forget it, we'll talk about this when the time comes.
Yang Jian strode through the alleyway. After a long time, he turned into a golden light and shot forward, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Take care of Qin?
Chu Qian stood there and pondered for a long time. She thought about many things, but she did not really understand the deep meaning behind Yang Jian's words.
She was the Qin, and the Qin was her. If she took care of the Qin, she would have to take care of herself? Was the Second Master telling him to take care of himself? But why did he make it sound so … euphemistic?
Yang Xiaochan kowtowed three times in front of the grave, looking back three times with every step, and walked out of the courtyard with some reluctance.
Ao Xinke did not bow. She was not married yet, so it would be impolite to bow directly.
When the three of them left, the courtyard was still as desolate, and the old city was still as bleak. Perhaps five hundred years ago, there was a family of six living a peaceful life here. But one day, there was an unforeseen event, and the family was broken up, and the wife and children were separated.
Yang Jian left the ruins of the old city, and immediately used Xuanqi to hide his figure, and flew toward the clear sky.
The tribulation clouds did not appear, and the figure did not appear. Yang Jian flew high up in the sky, and hesitated for a moment. Then, he changed his direction and headed north, planning to enter the Celestial Court in the Center Continent.
The Celestial Court had five heavenly gates in the east, west, south, and center, and these five heavenly gates were the only entrances and exits of the Celestial Court.
Thousands of cloud paths gathered there, and thousands of immortal realms appeared there.
The main body of the Celestial Court should be a huge piece of land floating above the five continents of the Primordial World. It was a fragment of the ancient Primordial World. It was refined by the Dao Ancestor using the fragments of the ancient Demon Court, the Buzhou Mountain, and a damaged Major Chiliocosm.
With the land as the foundation, there were endless Immortal Islands and Immortal Mountains floating in the sea of clouds. There was no lack of Grotto-heavens and blessed lands that contained immortal spirit and clear Qi.
The land and the island were connected by great Dharma powers into an inseparable whole. There was also an endless array formation protecting it. It coincided with the circulation of the world. It was rather mysterious.
Perhaps only the Saints had such methods, and only the Dao Ancestor had such boldness to create such a "Dharma treasure".
Due to the protection of the array formation, if one wanted to break into the Celestial Court in the five continents of the Primordial World, they would have to go through three checkpoints. That was also known as the difference between immortals and mortals.
The first checkpoint, the astral wind.
The second checkpoint, the Skyfire.
The third checkpoint, the Heavenly Gate.
If one were to fly up in any of the five continents of the Primordial World, they would be baptized by the astral wind of the world. The wind would blow against their immortal bodies. If their immortal bodies were too weak, their essence souls would be shattered.
After the astral wind passed, there would be a thick layer of Skyfire due to the Sun Essence that had been accumulated by the Celestial Court array formation for many years. If one's cultivation level was not high enough and his immortal power could not be maintained, he would be burned to ashes by the Skyfire.
Therefore, only cultivators of the Immortal realm could break through those two levels and reach the Celestial Court.
Was that the end?
Far from it.
There were nine heavens. Apart from the highest one, each level was divided into four heavens. There were a total of 33 heavens.
The highest heaven, Miluo Heaven, or Daira Heaven, was between reality and illusion. It evolved the wonders of the Dao. It was unpredictable and limitless. It could also be understood as the Primordial World.
Below it was the Grand Pure Realm's Great Red Heaven, the Shang Pure Realm's Yu Yu Heaven, and the Jade Pure Realm's Qing Wei Heaven. These were the lands of the Three Saints of the Dao Sect. They all had their own Daoist sites.
The Jade Emperor, who was supposed to place the Numinous Heaven Palace in Miluo Heaven, placed the Numinous Heaven Palace under the Three Pure Dao Realm to show his respect for the Three Pure Ones. However, he told the outside world that the Numinous Heaven Palace was in the Nine Heavens.
Therefore, the Celestial Court, which should have occupied the entire Nine Heavens, mainly occupied the middle and lower three heavens. The middle three heavens were the residences of the Celestial Court's immortals. There were also many "government offices" that were in charge of the operations of the Three Realms. It could be considered a huge government office.
In the Celestial Court, there were many "blessed immortals". Most of them were good people who ascended to the Celestial Court after they died. They would be placed in the lower three heavens. After a few hundred years of freedom, they would reincarnate.
Therefore, there were also some immortal cities in the lower three heavens. After passing through the Skyfire Zone, the shadows that he saw when he looked up were the lower three heavens.
The five Gates of Heaven were outside the Celestial Heavens. After entering the Celestial Heavens, there were naturally cloud paths that led to the various Heavenly Realms. It was vast like smoke, and it was a vast expanse of whiteness. If there was no one to lead the way, one would definitely get lost.
Yang Jian slowly sorted out the information in his heart. Not long after, he had arrived at the center of the Divine Region on a golden light.
He sensed carefully. With Xuanqi's obstruction, no one could see where he was.
However, Yang Jian still used a camouflage technique. He made a fake body and continued flying north. He himself transformed into a small insect and flew into a forest. Not long after, he transformed into an ordinary-looking eagle and rushed into the sky.
He kept flying up, but the air was not thin. Instead, he felt his body become lighter.
After flying for an unknown distance, gusts of strong winds blew. However, the eagle that Yang Jian had transformed into did not even shake his feathers.
The strong winds were about ten thousand feet thick. Yang Jian flapped his wings a few times and rushed over. He immediately felt a wave of heat coming from above.
The strong winds could not move the eagle's feathers. The Skyfire could not burn the feathers at all. However, Yang Jian accidentally discovered a few figures cultivating in the Skyfire. They were all in the Perfected Immortal Realm. They seemed to be using the Skyfire to forge their immortal bodies.
Without looking, Yang Jian continued to rush up. After breaking through the Skyfire, the sky seemed to be within reach.
A shadow slowly covered the sky. The eagle that Yang Jian had transformed into looked up for a while. He looked at the islands that were floating in the sky and moving slowly. His gaze was a little complicated.
He had finally arrived at the Celestial Court.
Screech!
The eagle cried. According to the guidance of the cloud path below, it spread its wings and flew towards the Central Heavenly Gate.
As it flew, the eagle burrowed into a cotton-like cloud and did not move again.
Instead, a smaller flying insect rushed out from under the cloud. It turned into a thin black line and shot forward quickly.
This was naturally Yang Jian. He had changed his body a few times. He was indeed extremely cautious. However, this was far from enough in Yang Jian's opinion. His transformation technique could not turn him from a tangible form to an intangible form. How to sneak into the Central Heavenly Gate was a problem.
Looking at the gate that stood between heaven and earth from afar, the flying insect that Yang Jian had transformed into hid in the cloud and looked around.
The Central Heavenly Gate was an important place in the Celestial Court. It was also the closest to the Lingxiao Palace of the Golden Arches among the five Heavenly Gates. It was heavily guarded. There was even a military camp of Heavenly Soldiers inside. It was continuous and hidden in the clouds. There were no less than 100,000 Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals.
It would be unwise to barge in forcefully.
Sneak in under the name of reporting to the Hall of Enlightenment?
He would only make a fool of himself if he tried to cover it up.
The Central Heavenly Gate seemed to be two white jade pillars supporting a meticulously carved door plaque. There were clouds on both sides, and there was no "Heavenly Wall".
However, there were array formations protecting the left and right sides of the Heavenly Gate. It was much more difficult to climb than the Heavenly Wall.
As he was thinking, the eyes of the flying insect that Yang Jian had transformed into suddenly lit up. He saw a few outstanding fairies riding a cloud from the left and flying towards the Central Heavenly Gate.
They were holding fruit baskets in their hands. They seemed to have just returned after plucking immortal fruits. They were laughing and playing leisurely.
"Sorry."
Yang Jian, who had transformed into an insect, slowly floated over, and with lightning speed, he burrowed into the skirt of a woman's fairy dress. His six little claws hung on the soft and smooth fabric.
He looked up and took a look …
As an insect, most of its eyes were at the top of its head and had a wide field of vision.
With that, Yang Jian understood the difference between the underwear of women in the future and the underwear of women in the Primordial World.
"Sorry, sorry."
Yang Jian quickly averted his gaze, but his mind was also filled with thoughts.
