(PS: It will be a new year soon. Happy New Year to everyone!)
"You can only rely on yourself to derive and comprehend the Taiji Yin Yang Palm. The rest of us can't help you." Yan Di said, "After all, you are the only one who simultaneously cultivates in the Three Clear lineages and only you have come into contact with the true Taiji Yin Yang Palm of the Grand Clear direct lineage."
"The difficulty involved can be imagined. Having made this trip to the Vast Ocean World, you will most likely have to enter death seclusion to comprehend it."
A rare look of worry appeared in Yan Di's gaze, "If you go down alone, with no one to protect you, I will not be able to rest easy."
Those who were in death seclusion usually needed someone to protect them to prevent external enemies from taking advantage of them.
If they were in their own sect, it would be fine under the protection of the sect.
When Yan Zhaoge went to the Vast Ocean World, the people of Broad Creed Mountain there were actually all guests at Changli Mountain, not being a stronghold of their own.
Meanwhile, a problem that all of Broad Creed Mountain had to pay attention to was that in the Vast Ocean World, there was a wound of the sky that led to the Royal Reed Sea.
The wound of the sky was in the Phoenix Bearing Province, and it was quite a distance away from the Spirit Inheritance Province.
While the Phoenix Bearing Region was currently controlled by the Dim Darkness Sect, experts like King Xuancheng would definitely be able to go there as and when they wished.
A long time ago, people of the Grand Xuan Dynasty had headed to the Phoenix Bearing Region where Yan Zhaoge had first appeared in the World beyond Worlds in an attempt to investigate his background.
It was Madame Kang and her two sons.
In the end, they just happened to run into Yan Zhaoge as well as Luo Zhiyuan and the others of the Radiant Light Sect who had just returned from extradimensional space.
In a chaotic battle between the three sides, Madame Kang had perished.
This had directly led to the great battle in which the Grand Xuan Dynasty had breached the headquarters of the Radiant Light Sect afterwards.
It was just that after this battle, Kang Ping and the others had been trapped in the Clear Scenic Region while King Xuanmu had perished, the Grand Xuan Dynasty had suffered a great blow to its vitality.
The Grand Xuan Dynasty did not have the time nor the energy to continue investigating the wound of the sky in the Phoenix Bearing Region and the Vast Ocean World.
The Phoenix Bearing Province had enjoyed peace until now.
However, the situation was different now. With King Xuancheng's return, the Grand Xuan Dynasty had gradually stabilised their footing once more.
For the sake of the Heaven Bearing Efficate Array, they were keeping a low profile and did not act rashly.
However, no one knew how long the current situation would last.
The Vast Ocean World was not a completely stable place.
Over the past year or so, Broad Creed Mountain had actually been paying close attention to the happenings in the Phoenix Bearing Region.
After all, there were still people of Broad Creed Mountain in the Vast Ocean World.
Yan Zhaoge nodded, saying, "You are right; I indeed intend to go down alone."
"Firstly, no one can leave this place. Secondly, secrecy is often the most effective form of protection."
Yan Zhaoge explained, "In going to the Vast Ocean World this time, I did not know that I would meet Elder Zhang and the others of the Vast Ocean World, nor did I inform those of Changli Mountain."
"Secrecy is the best form of protection for me. While I will be entering secluded cultivation this time, and may even be in death seclusion, it is not certain that I will not return at all. If there is time in between, I will find some time to return to the World beyond Worlds and show myself to others."
Yan Di understood what Yan Zhaoge meant.
Even if his enemies attacked him, Yan Zhaoge had never shown himself. It was fine even if they knew that he was in secluded cultivation.
He just had to mislead his opponents into thinking that Yan Zhaoge was in secluded cultivation in the World beyond Worlds instead of having gone to the Vast Ocean World.
Yan Di's furrowed brows still did not relax.
Yan Zhaoge smiled as he consoled him, "Relax, father. I have my ways."
Hearing his words, Yan Di was silent as he looked quietly at Yan Zhaoge.
The current Yan Zhaoge, be it in terms of his cultivation base or his conduct, had already long since ceased to require his worry.
Yan Di himself was also never one to drag things out.
Still, he was a father at the end of the day.
As a father, no matter when, how could he not worry about his son when he knew that there was a risk?
Still, after a short period of consideration, Yan Di did not say anything more in the end.
After reporting the situation to Feng Yunsheng, Yuan Zhengfeng, Fang Zhun and a few others, Yan Zhaoge took his leave.
Besides these few people, even within Broad Creed Mountain, there was no one else who knew where Yan Zhaoge was actually headed.
Whether he was out adventuring or in secluded cultivation at Converting Lake Peak in the back mountains of Broad Creed Mountain in the Royal Reed Sea, these various reasons all being cover-ups.
Yan Zhaoge first headed to the Eight Extremities World via the wound of the sky beneath Water Ridge Peak before heading to the Vast Ocean World via the Eight Extremities World.
After arriving in the Vast Ocean World, his final destination was still the Bewildering Maze Sea.
Yan Zhaoge's current destination was precisely here.
He had no intention of leaving the Bewildering Maze Sea at all, also not intending to interact with anyone.
This place was precisely a good place to hide. While there were many martial practitioners in the Vast Ocean World, it would still be very difficult to find a single person here.
No one knew that the Traceless Cloud Dragon King Yan Zhaoge who had single-handedly overturned the heavens and earth of the entire world when he had been a Martial Grandmaster had returned to the Vast Ocean World once more.
Yan Zhaoge retracted his true essence and aura, circulating the Peerless Heavenly Scripture as all things turned into nothingness.
"Indeed, while I have yet to attain the Seeing Divinity stage, having returned to the lower worlds now, I am already unable to remain here."
The current Yan Zhaoge had to suppress and retract his power like those experts above the third level of the Martial Saint realm in order to be able to survive in a lower world like the Vast Ocean World. Otherwise, he would be rejected by the power of dimensions.
Fortunately, unlike Yan Di who could only advance and not retreat, Yan Zhaoge was able to suppress and retract his power very freely.
It could be said that it was also very easy for him who cultivated in the Peerless Heavenly Scripture to completely suppress himself to that of an ordinary person who had never cultivated in martial arts before.
Looking at the great sea before him, Yan Zhaoge inhaled deeply, "Then, let us begin."
He sat in the meditative position amidst space, his figure descending towards the great sea down below. Not a single ripple was caused as he had already sunk directly into the depths of the sea, vanishing without a trace.
In order to pursue efficiency and concentrate his energy, just as Yan Di had predicted, Yan Zhaoge entered death seclusion.
His first seclusion directly lasted for three years.
After emerging from seclusion in the Vast Ocean World three years later, Yan Zhaoge secretly returned to the World beyond Worlds, showing his face once more.
At this time, only a little over a year had passed in the World beyond Worlds.
While Yan Zhaoge seemed to be living in seclusion and not as active as before, this did not arouse the suspicions of others.
Instead, while he had been in seclusion, a special person had come to visit him. This was within his expectations whilst also unexpected.
The central Jun Heaven Territory, Kunlun Mountain's Ingenious Flying Peak, a descendant of the Brocade Emperor's lineage.
The other party did not appear arrogant or rude as he was simply being polite in his words.
Still, Yan Di and the others could tell that this person had come to probe whether the Profound Sky Purple Gold Furnace had fallen into Yan Zhaoge's hands that year.
As Yan Zhaoge was in seclusion and Yan Di and the others had dealt with him flawlessly, the other party did not take things too far as he quickly left.
As for whether his suspicions had been dispelled, only the person himself would know.
After appearing for a short while, Yan Zhaoge headed to the Vast Ocean World once more, beginning a second period of secluded cultivation.
Meanwhile, in the World beyond Worlds, everything seemed to still be calm as a storm was still brewing in the shadows, silently awaiting the passing of time.
Calculating in terms of World beyond Worlds' time, a year after Yan Zhaoge had entered seclusion once more, changes seemed to have begun.
Just like how Yan Zhaoge had once caused heaven-shaking, earth-overturning changes in the Vast Ocean World, someone who had once commanded the winds and summoned the rain in the Royal Reed Sea returned here once more. (To be continued.)
