As the news spread, Water Crystal Palace and Green Snake Island were the ones who felt the most upset.
Water Crystal Palace seemed to already see the Spirit Returning Sect leaving them, entering the embrace of Changli Mountain. Meanwhile, Guan Jingqiong and the others of Green Snake Island wished that they could smash their heads against the ground.
The Spirit Returning Sect desired to see the complete Xuanwu Fist Scripture in order to improve their martial legacies. How was it not the same for Green Snake Island?
What worried them even more now was that if the Spirit Returning Sect successfully advanced, Green Snake Island would be facing a calamity of destruction at any time.
The Chief of Green Snake Island, the 'Green Snake Madam' Guan Jingqiong, really did not know how she should face the ancestors of Green Snake Island now.
Hearing that Yan Zhaoge had reappeared in the Vast Ocean World, the other major powers paid close attention to him as well.
Even the ongoing great battle between the forces of Good and Evil had temporarily come to a halt, with no one stirring up any major conflicts as they all paid close attention to what Yan Zhaoge would do now that he had reappeared.
Yan Zhaoge had no intention of doing anything else, just meeting the Chief of Changli Mountain, Gao Tianzhong. They naturally exchanged some pleasantries.
Having successfully Transcended Mortality and entered Sainthood, Gao Tianzhong's strength was comparable to that of Water Crystal Palace's Palace Lord Lin Shi and the Chief of the Dragon Slayer Sect Zhao Zhong, replacing the fallen Evil Saint Lin Qiancheng as one of the three heavyweights of the Vast Ocean World.
However, Gao Tianzhong's mind was very calm. He also thought that while there had been no activity from Water Crystal Palace recently, its strength had actually been increasing in secret.
Gao Tianzhong naturally welcomed Yan Zhaoge's reappearance.
He now more or less understood that Yan Zhaoge did not intend to reign supreme over a region of the Vast Ocean World, at least not for the time being.
It was just that with more of Yan Zhaoge's fellow disciples appearing in the Vast Ocean World this time, those of Changli Mountain still secretly paid attention to him.
"Chief Gao, this Yan will be leaving soon. I still have some matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first. My fellow disciples may be a bother to your sect, so please take care of them," Yan Zhaoge smiled.
Gao Tianzhong and the other Changli Mountain martial practitioners were all slightly taken aback. From Yan Zhaoge's words, it actually seemed like he would not appear for a long time.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind, but Gao Tianzhong still did not hesitate in the slightest as he replied, "Mister Yan is too polite. Our sect naturally welcomes a friend who has come from afar."
With both sides enjoying themselves, Yan Zhaoge and the others left while the Spirit Returning Sect's Lu Feng remained behind.
While they had come for Yan Zhaoge's Zhenwu Fist Scripture, since they had decided to stay far away from Water Crystal Palace and approach Changli Mountain, the Spirit Returning Sect naturally had many matters to discuss with Changli Mountain.
Yan Zhaoge and the others exited the great hall together, their gazes simultaneously falling on Xu Fei.
Xue Fei and Shi Jun had already remained in the Vast Ocean World for over fifteen years. While Xue Fei still appeared to be in his thirties or forties, he was actually already close to fifty.
He had not wasted his time in these years either. He had long since become an Essence Talisman level Martial Grandmaster expert. His current age was extremely young in comparison to his lifespan.
Yan Zhaoge asked, "How is Sister-in-law Yuzhen?"
Due to her heavy injuries, Ying Yuzhen's lifespan had been shortened. Now that more than ten years had passed, if there was no improvement, her situation would not be very optimistic.
Xue Fei smiled, "Jun 'er is looking after her. Thanks to the Purple Bamboo Immortal Pistil we found a few years ago, her lifespan was extended a little. Her situation is already much better now, just that she has yet to awaken."
Hearing his words, Yan Zhaoge sighed in relief, "There are Purple Bamboo Immortal Pistils in this Vast Ocean World? That's good then. "
Methods to extend one's lifespan were rare in the first place. With Ying Yuzhen's unique situation, many methods could not be used, and many spirit medicines could not be easily consumed. Therefore, there were even fewer methods available.
Purple Bamboo Immortal Pistils had not been found in the Eight Extremities World and the Floating Life World. Unexpectedly, they were found here in the Vast Ocean World. Yan Zhaoge could not help but sigh emotionally at how the heavens always left a way out.
They arrived at the back mountains of Changli Mountain. Within a courtyard stood a youth who looked to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years of age, his gaze firm and his features handsome.
"Senior apprentice-granduncle Fu, senior apprentice-uncle Yan," This youth was precisely Shi Jun. Seeing Yan Zhaoge and the others, a joyous smile appeared on his face.
After first greeting Yan Zhaoge and Fu Enshu, he greeted the other fellow disciples of Broad Creed Mountain.
While Feng Yunsheng, Sikong Qing and the others had long since known that the flow of time in the Vast Ocean World was different from that of the Eight Extremities World, seeing Shi Jun who looked completely like a handsome youth now, they were still rather unused to it.
Ying Longtu raised his head dazedly, looking at Shi Jun who was almost a head taller than him.
Back at Broad Creed Mountain that year, the two had been close in age, their relationship having been rather good. It was just that their former companion had suddenly been more than ten years older than him. This had truly caused Han Long 'er who had already been gradually enlightened to feel like his brain was no longer enough to process.
It was Shi Jun who maintained his smile as he solemnly bowed towards Ying Longtu, "Senior apprentice-uncle Ying."
"No … no need for formalities …" A rather dazed Ying Longtu stuttered a little.
The others had originally still been a little unnatural, but seeing Ying Longtu's current appearance, they instead all smiled, no longer feeling so awkward.
Standing beside Xue Fei, Yan Zhaoge secretly sent him a sound transmission, "Senior apprentice-brother Xu, in returning to the Eight Extremities World this time, I got Ah Hu to make a trip to Turbid Wave Pavilion and meet senior apprentice-sister Xie."
Xue Fei's gaze hardened as he looked at Yan Zhaoge and Ah Hu.
Yan Zhaoge nodded towards Ah Hu, who scratched the back of his head, "Brother Fei, I met Miss Xie Youchan. According to Young Master's instructions, I invited her to come to the Vast Ocean World as well."
"Miss Xie declined. Still, she said that if you returned to the Eight Extremities World in the future, please make a trip to Turbid Wave Pavilion."
Ah Hu was rather puzzled, "I specifically asked around and found out that Miss Xie did not have a new lover. Still, why hasn't she come?"
Yan Zhaoge elbowed him, laughing as he scolded, "What are you talking about?"
Ah Hu gave a simple and honest laugh, while Xue Fei could not help but laugh as well, shaking his head, "I more or less understand the reason for her not coming. Rest assured, after this matter is over, I will definitely find a way to return to the Eight Extremities World to see her."
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "Now that senior apprentice-aunt Fu and so many of our fellow disciples are here, there is no longer a need for you to keep an eye on Sister-in-law Yuzhen and Jun 'er."
"I will leave the Lofty Prestige Mirror with you, also imparting you the Mirror Dimensional Traversing Technique. Roughly a year later, when the Lofty Prestige Mirror has fully recovered, you will be able to return to the Eight Extremities World on your own."
"Make the best use of your time. Otherwise, by the time you return, you will have already surpassed them by two generations."
Xue Fei ignored Yan Zhaoge's teasing as he instead frowned, asking, "I can indeed rest easy here. Still, if you give me the treasure, what about yourself?"
Yan Zhaoge answered, "There is no need to use the Lofty Prestige Mirror in heading to the World beyond Worlds. After getting there, I might not be able to use it."
Seeing that Xue Fei's brows were still tightly knit, Yan Zhaoge paused for a moment before continuing, "Having chatted with Old Man Mo before coming, I heard him mention that there are some things in the World beyond Worlds. If they have yet to be severed, I naturally have other methods."
"The Mirror Dimensional Traversing Technique is not the only way to establish a temporary dimensional passageway."
Hearing Yan Zhaoge's words, Xue Fei finally relaxed, "When do you leave?"
Yan Zhaoge said calmly, "Right now."
