While it was a relic of the Dim Radiant Emperor Yin Tianxia, the Dim Radiant Sect had been divided for so many years, the Radiant Light Sect and the Dim Darkness Sect having been fighting for so many years as well. It was impossible that the other party would willingly submit to a single relic they had obtained.
If the two sides had reached an agreement beforehand, then it would be a different story. However, this possibility was not high.
However, this thing in front of him could still be of considerable value. Perhaps there was some secret hidden within it.
At the end of the day, Yin Tianxia was an expert who had surpassed the previous generations of the Dim Radiant Sect, a hegemon of his generation who had brought the Dim Radiant Sect to the peak it had once attained in pre-Great Calamity times.
The dao tradition of the Dim Radiant Sect had definitely been greatly affected by the Great Calamity as well. It was just that they had been more fortunate than the other sects in that their lineage had not been severed. Even Yan Zhaoge felt rather commendable towards the person who had been able to lead the Dim Radiant Sect out of its depths under such circumstances, rising to unprecedented heights.
Taking a step back, even if the Dim Radiant Sect had not suffered any losses at all in the Great Calamity, it would still not be easy for them to surpass their predecessors.
The fact that the Radiant Light Sect had killed people for their possessions and made things difficult for Old Man Mo's clan also reflected that this metallic fragment was not simple.
Yan Zhaoge pondered for a moment before swivelling his head to look at his father. Then, he saw Yan Di looking over at him as well, nodding slowly.
Yan Di was of the same mind as Yan Zhaoge.
Their Broad Creed Mountain and the Radiant Light Sect were already irreconcilable enemies. They would naturally not be afraid of fighting over one more thing.
Increasing his own chips and defeating the other party was what he needed to consider.
The only problem was that the Dim Darkness Sect might also covet this treasure. Still, as Old Man Mo had said, while the treasure might bring about adverse effects, it might also be of great use.
Yan Di said, "You are proficient in all sorts of miscellaneous knowledge. You can keep this for now and carefully analyse it."
Yan Zhaoge nodded in agreement, cupping his hands towards Old Man Mo, "Since that is so, I thank Senior."
Old Man Mo shook his head, "What are you saying? This old man should be the one thanking you, thanking your esteemed sect for defeating the Radiant Light Sect, allowing this old man's resentment to be alleviated."
"Speaking of which, this old man has already lost his sharpness, only daring to hide in a corner. I no longer have the confidence to face the Radiant Light Sect head-on and exact my revenge."
"Looking at you, father and son, this old man feels ashamed. I feel ashamed to face my dead clansmen."
Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di consoled Old Man Mo a little, and Old Man Mo's heart also very quickly calmed down.
The two chatted for a while longer, mainly listening to Old Man Mo talk about the local customs and practices of the World beyond Worlds.
In the end, Old Man Mo sighed and said, "After all, this old man has already left that place for over a hundred years. It is hard to predict whether there will be any major changes now. I hope that this will not mislead you and your father."
Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di both said, "You are polite. We should be the ones thanking you."
After taking their leave of Old Man Mo, Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di left Verdant Pill Island, finally embarking on the journey back to Broad Creed Mountain.
Passing through the Earth Domain, thinking of the many experts of Broad Creed Mountain who had died in battle here, thinking of Yuan Zhengfeng who had been lost amidst the chaotic flows of space, Yan Zhaoge and Yan Di both felt rather heavy.
Hearing Yan Zhaoge's detailed narration of what had happened that day, a cold light flickered within Yan Di's eyes from time to time.
Thinking of how Shen Li had already died at Yan Zhaoge's hands, Yan Di's gaze gradually turned gentle as he looked at his son, his expression filled with praise.
After a long time, he sighed softly. "I hope Master is blessed by the heavens."
Yan Zhaoge nodded silently as well. Yan Di asked, "Is there a way to find Master like how you found Xu Fei and Shi Jun?"
"The chances are slim." Yan Zhaoge let out a rare bitter laugh, "Without any clues at all, the chances of Grand Master finding his way back might not be as high as Grand Master finding his way back himself."
Yan Di thought about it, "If that is the case, either Master returns on his own or the possibility of all of us meeting up in the World beyond Worlds in the future is greater."
Yan Zhaoge said, "While that is true, I will not give up. As long as there is a sliver of hope, I will still persevere."
Yan Di nodded slowly, not speaking for a long time as he looked at the vast territory of the Earth Domain beneath his feet.
His Master, Yuan Zhengfeng, could be said to be one of the people who had influenced him the most. Sometimes, the word 'one of' could even be removed.
Like Shi Tie, Fu Enshu and the others, Yan Di had entered the clan at a young age, with Yuan Zhengfeng being both a Master and a father.
After a while, Yan Di retracted his gaze, striding off once more as he asked, "That Sacred Artifact, the Fish Dragon Spear, was forged by you?"
Yan Zhaoge nodded in agreement, smiling as he said, "Having gained much from entering the dragon tomb, I have more than enough to forge another Sacred Artifact. Still, it would be best if you did it yourself. That way, you would be able to infuse your martial true intent within, making it easier for you."
Yan Di nodded, "That is only natural."
Yan Zhaoge continued, "In the dragon tomb this time, I also obtained something that can assist us in heading to the World beyond Worlds even before our cultivation bases have reached the fourth level of the Martial Saint realm."
He handed the paper fan that he had obtained from the Dim Darkness Sect martial practitioners to Yan Di.
Stroking the handle of the fan, Yan Di was slightly lost in thought.
Hearing Yan Zhaoge's idea of heading to the World beyond Worlds in advance to make arrangements, Yan Di was not surprised.
Both father and son were tough people who liked to take the initiative. Yan Zhaoge's idea was exactly what he wanted.
"Are you able to wield that Extreme Yang Seal again now?" Yan Di asked after pondering for a moment.
Yan Zhaoge spread his palms apart, "I still can't for now. This Lord is very hard to serve. Unlike the Extreme Yin Crown, when wielded by a Maiden of Extreme Yin, the power of the Extreme Yin Crown increases progressively, gradually increasing along with the cultivation base of the Maiden of Extreme Yin."
"However, the power of this Extreme Yang Seal is extremely violent as soon as it is used, just happening to be at the final limit that the Eight Extremities World can bear. It cannot be lowered even if you want to. The final result is that after a single use, it will fall into slumber once more, unable to awaken for a long time."
Yan Di pondered as he said, "It has already been more than half a year since you last used it. With such a long gap, it would be very easy for others to make use of it."
"If the Radiant Light Sect descends once more, the Extreme Yang Seal might not be able to make it in time. Even if it does make it in time and falls into slumber once more, their third descent might also be stuck during the period of slumber of the Extreme Yang Seal."
Yan Di shook his head, "After the battle of the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation and the oceanic amount of true dragon qi that you spoke of, I am confident that I will be able to improve further within a short period of time."
"It is just that the matter of heading to the World beyond Worlds will have to fall on your shoulders. I will have to remain in the Eight Extremities World and stabilize the situation, preventing them from descending to cause trouble for us once more."
"Fortunately, you are no longer the same as you were in the past. Not only has your cultivation base soared by leaps and bounds, you have also refined a Martial Saint clone. As long as you are vigilant, most people will not be able to do anything to you."
Yan Di felt rather regretful. How much he wished to head to the World beyond Worlds was not just because there were vaster heavens and earth there, greater opportunities and challenges. The true reason was that the person he had always hoped to meet again might just be there.
Still, as a person, he had to bear his responsibilities. Yan Di could only suppress his emotions.
Yan Zhaoge sighed slightly as well, knowing that his father's decision was actually the most suitable one.
The father and son proceeded onwards, Broad Creed Mountain soon appearing before their eyes once more.
Looking at Broad Creed Mountain, Yan Zhaoge blinked, "Oh, there is still something that I have to tell you."
Yan Di glanced rather strangely at Yan Zhaoge, "What is it?"
Yan Zhaoge chuckled, "I have taken a fancy to someone else's daughter."
