While he did not know how much of the true meaning of the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture Shen Lingzi and his successor had obtained, their lineage's Time Flowing Sword did indeed originate from the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture.
Back in the Floating Life World, having detected that the supreme martial art which his mother had imparted to the Snow Crane Sect's Su Yun was a partial legacy of the Life Creation Heavenly Scripture, Yan Zhaoge had known that there might be other direct lineages of the Jade Clear lineage in the World beyond Worlds.
Still, he had not thought that he would encounter such a person not long after having arrived in the World beyond Worlds.
Could he be related to Xue Chuqing?
"Of the ten Primordial Heavenly Scriptures, the Martial Repository of the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace has four of them. However, the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture is not amongst them. Who would have thought that I would actually be able to see a descendant of the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture after the Great Calamity."
Yan Zhaoge pondered, "Of the lineage of the Lord of Primordial Beginning, the founder of the Jade Clear lineage, the Taiyi Cultivated Deity was most proficient in the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture."
"It's just that I don't know if Shen Lingzi's lineage is the direct lineage of the Taiyi Spiritual Master or some other legendary figure, having luckily survived the Great Calamity to this day, or is it that the people after the Great Calamity obtained a secret legacy due to fate?"
While Yan Zhaoge was not proficient in the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture, the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation that he grasped was of the orthodox direct lineage of the Taiyi Spiritual Master.
Now that he saw the inheritance of the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture, he couldn't help but feel even more interested.
Of course, what Yan Zhaoge was most concerned about was that the reappearance of Shen Lingzi's lineage would have a massive impact on his trip to the World beyond Worlds this time.
He was not on good terms with the Grand Xuan Dynasty either, having slain a general who was guarding a region and also having close ties with the Dim Darkness Sect, being an absolute traitor and wanted criminal.
With the main altar of the Dim Darkness Sect as the centre, a great battle erupted between the Grand Xuan Dynasty and the anti-Xuan forces, both sides engulfing the entire world as the battle grew increasingly intense.
In the end, it had virtually affected a small half of the Royal Reed Sea.
It wasn't just the peak experts like King Xuanmu, Luo Zhiyuan and Zhou Haosheng fighting each other.
The experts of the two sides were also fighting.
The anti-Xuan side mainly consisted of the Dim Darkness Sect martial practitioners. It was not just the branch altar in the Flourishing Peace Region where Yan Zhaoge and the others had been previously. The various branch altars of the Dim Darkness Sect were currently all being attacked by the Grand Xuan Dynasty, the flames of war spreading everywhere.
In the surroundings of the Dim Darkness Sect's main altar, the weaker martial practitioners gradually retreated to the outskirts lest they be affected by the battle between King Xuanmu and Zhou Haosheng.
The Grand Xuan Dynasty had come with great momentum this time, the Dim Darkness Sect having fallen into a disadvantageous position. As their disciples retreated and fled, they were unceasingly pursued by the experts of the Grand Xuan Dynasty.
While Yan Zhaoge had steered the Myriad Dragon Palace into the great sea, it was not peaceful there as experts of both sides frequently clashed.
Undergoing the baptism of the reversed power of sun and moon, Yan Zhaoge and the others circulated their arts to regulate their condition while refining the power of the cold sun and dim moon that had entered their bodies.
While Yan Zhaoge remained in the Myriad Dragon Palace, he was not cut off from news.
He had the Northern Ocean Clone scouting for information outside.
Although the information might be a little delayed and not timely, as time passed, more and more information was obtained.
Several days ago, the great battle at the Dim Darkness Sect's main altar had finally come to an end.
Following the Pavilion Lord of the North Sea Sword Pavilion, Gu Hong, and the Chief of the Radiant Light Sect, Luo Zhiyuan, the Chief of Copper Men Island, Gongsun Ming, had arrived as well.
A great battle had erupted at the Dim Darkness Sect's main altar, with the Dim Darkness Sect's main altar having been directly destroyed.
Two experts of the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm of Shen Lingzi's lineage aside, the high-grade Sacred Artifact, the Cloud Circulating Heavenly Light Sword, which had accompanied Shen Lingzi in rampaging through the Royal Reed Sea that year, had reappeared in this world.
Coupled with the Grand Xuan Dynasty's high-grade Sacred Artifact, the King Xuan Spear, this battle had ultimately ended with the Grand Xuan Dynasty's victory.
The Dim Darkness Sect martial practitioners with Zhou Haosheng at their head had been forced to abandon their main altar, retreating in order to preserve most of their strength.
Meanwhile, the various branch altars of the Dim Darkness Sect had been swept through by the Grand Xuan Dynasty as a result, falling one after another. The Dim Darkness Sect had suffered a great blow to its vitality in this battle.
The Grand Xuan Dynasty whose morale had been greatly boosted completely launched a counterattack, chasing after the Radiant Light Sect as their next target was the North Sea Sword Pavilion.
"A wise choice, not attacking the Radiant Light Sect for now." Hearing this, Yan Zhaoge curled his lips, "While the Radiant Light Sect should not act rashly with such a disadvantageous situation now, they might change their minds and want to annex the greatly weakened Dim Darkness Sect."
In the Royal Reed Sea, there had previously been four major powers that had remained independent even after the Grand Xuan Dynasty had taken control of it. They were the Radiant Light Sect, the Dim Darkness Sect, the North Sea Sword Pavilion and Copper Men Island.
With the Dim Darkness Sect currently suffering a great blow to its vitality, the Grand Xuan Dynasty's next targets would only be the North Sea Sword Pavilion and Copper Men Island if not the Radiant Light Sect.
The situation on the Copper Men Island was very special. There were three mysterious copper men of unknown origins on the island.
As long as they did not leave the island, these three copper men would be able to unleash the strength of an early Immortal Bridge Martial Saint. Coupled with the guardian grand formation of Copper Men Island, they were truly impregnable.
Therefore, while Copper Men Island did not have a high-grade Sacred Artifact and its number one expert, the Chief of the island, the 'Copper Saint' Gongsun Ming, had yet to attain the Immortal Bridge stage, Copper Men Island was publicly acknowledged as the Sacred Ground for the martial dao in the Royal Reed Sea with the greatest geographical advantage.
However, if they left the protection of the three Copper Men on the island, Copper Men Island's strength would be slightly weaker than the other clans.
It seemed to be more than enough to defend, but not enough to advance.
If nothing unexpected happened, the Grand Xuan Dynasty would definitely leave Copper Men Island for last before taking care of it.
This way, their target would only be the North Sea Sword Pavilion.
After the death of King Xuanwen, before the descendants of Shen Lingzi's lineage had appeared in this world, the Pavilion Lord of the North Sea Sword Pavilion, Gu Hong, as the sole Immortal Bridge Martial Saint of the Royal Reed Sea, vaguely had the momentum of being the number one expert as well as the head of the anti-Xuan forces.
Now that Shen Lingzi's lineage had reappeared and the Grand Xuan Dynasty's strength had increased greatly, their target was the North Sea Sword Pavilion.
Yan Zhaoge smacked his lips, "The Dim Darkness Sect might join forces with the North Sea Sword Pavilion. It is just unknown if the Radiant Light Sect and Copper Men Island will avoid them once more now that the Grand Xuan Dynasty has risen in power once more."
"If they want to fight the Grand Xuan to the end, they might have to engage in another major battle in the North Sea Sword Pavilion?"
"Sadly, it is not convenient for the Northern Ocean Clone to seek out information now. I can only personally make a move."
Amidst his thoughts, Yan Zhaoge kept the Myriad Dragon Palace, flying out of the great sea. After getting his bearings, he headed north.
Leaving the Dim Darkness Sect's main altar earlier, he had drifted along with the currents as he had been brought along by the undercurrents of the deep sea.
Currently, he was already close to the northern region of the Royal Reed Sea, not far from the territory of the North Sea Sword Pavilion.
As he had expected earlier, the people of the Radiant Light Sect and the Grand Xuan Dynasty were both separately searching for his whereabouts, setting up numerous heaven-encompassing and earth-encompassing traps.
Of course, most of their efforts were focused on the overall situation of the war in the Royal Reed Sea. Even so, however, the number of experts who were searching for Yan Zhaoge was still not small.
Never would they have thought that Yan Zhaoge would do the exact opposite, not going to some remote place to hide as he instead came to the territory of the North Sea Sword Pavilion where the winds and clouds were currently gathering.
This caused Yan Zhaoge's journey to be rather smooth.
Having left the surface of the sea, Yan Zhaoge looked around as he walked. Feeling the fluctuations of the true essence of martial practitioners in the distance, a smile appeared on his face as he walked on the sea in that direction. (To be continued.)
