"Yes!" Hearing the order, the elders behind nodded in unison before flying out of the room.
Comprehending the Spatial Quintessence of Sealing meant that one's comprehension of spatial laws had reached the pinnacle of the world. With such an expert in charge, the Zhang Clan would be able to prosper once more.
Most importantly, he had just been humiliated. He could regain the face that he had lost by having the engagement annulled in public.
He wanted to let everyone know how foolish that Zhang Xuan fellow was for rejecting the Luo Clan's offer.
"Zhang Xuan, you've insulted the dignity of the Luo Clan. Never in your wildest dreams would you have imagined that one of our clansmen would break through so quickly!" Luo Ganzhen's eyes turned frosty as he sneered, "Once I find that person and become the Clan Head, I'll make sure to exact vengeance on you!"
Comprehending the Spatial Quintessence of Sealing was equivalent to grasping one of the core means of the Luo Clan. As long as one's cultivation reached the required level, there was nothing that the young prodigy of the Zhang family could do to him!
"That's right. If we don't kill this guy, we won't be able to get rid of the hatred in our hearts!" Luo Xuanqing also revealed a crazed expression.
He treated him as a good friend, but the other party dared to trample on the dignity of the Luo Family!
Whoosh!
Not long after, the many Elders who had gone to search for him flew back.
"Reporting to the deputy clan head, we have checked all of the Macrocosm Ascendancy realm experts in the clan, but none of them have comprehended the Spatial Quintessence of Sealing!"
"Deputy Clan Chief, we've also questioned all of the Dimension Sundering realm disciples, but none of them were able to comprehend it!"
…
Many elders relayed the news to them, but they were all disappointed.
The fact that the statue of the ancestor had bowed personally meant that there was definitely someone who had comprehended it. However, they had asked all of the cultivators in the clan, but they didn't hear anything strange about it. This was strange.
"No? How could there not be? The laws of space have always been difficult to comprehend, and the laws of sealing are even more so. Without the Luo Clan's bloodline and heritage, it would be nigh impossible for one to comprehend even the slightest bit of it … "Luo Ganzhen replied in disbelief.
The reason why Luo Tianyun had been able to succeed back then was because he had coincidentally obtained the Dimension Silencer and Ancient Sage Qiu Wu's heritage. If not for the Luo Clan, who else would have been able to obtain so many fortuitous encounters?
"We have also gathered all of the cultivators who are in closed-door cultivation to question them … Could it be that the young man isn't from the Luo Clan?" Luo Qingchen asked.
If the other party was truly from the Luo Clan, he would surely know what it meant to have comprehended such a Quintessence. Even without them searching for the other party, the other party would have appeared on his own accord. However, there was no movement at all. Most likely, the person who had won the respect of so many predecessors was not from the Luo Clan.
Luo Ganzhen's eyes turned cold as he said, "We'll look into it right now. We have to find that person, and once we do, we'll try our best to win him over to our side. Even if it means …"
"Marriage alliance?" Luo Xuanqing was stunned.
"Indeed. After comprehending the Spatial Quintessence of Sealing, the Luo Clan will no longer be able to hide its secrets from the other party. If we don't recruit the Luo Clan, won't the Luo Clan be doomed? So, as long as he can come, I can agree to any condition. Even if he wants to marry your sister, I won't refuse! "
Luo Ganzhen waved his hand.
"But …" Luo Xuanqing panicked.
"There are no buts. Your sister has already fallen out with Zhang Xuan, and there's no longer any possibility between them. Since that's the case, why don't we find someone who has comprehended the Spatial Quintessence of Sealing? This way, we'll be able to suppress him and show the Zhang Clan that our Luo Clan can stand at the top of the Master Teacher Continent even without a marriage alliance with them!"
Luo Ganzhen's eyes turned cold. "More importantly, we can use him to deal a blow to Zhang Xuan. We'll let him know that my daughter isn't someone who can be bullied by just anyone!"
Luo Xuanqing fell silent.
He was worried that his younger sister wouldn't be happy, and he felt that this was unfair to her, but … this was indeed the best way to deal a blow to Zhang Xuan. At the same time, the Luo Clan's dignity would be alleviated as well.
Being able to comprehend the Spatial Quintessence of Sealing would make him more compatible with his younger sister's ability to use the Dimension Silencer.
"Alright, it's decided then. Send someone to look for him! As soon as you find him, report back immediately. I'll invite him personally! "
Luo Ganzhen flung his sleeves and said.
"Yes!"
The elders quickly left the Luo Clan.
…
Without the shackles of the Dimensional Sand, they were able to advance swiftly. It didn't take long for the trio to arrive at the entrance of the palace.
Walking up the stairs, Zhang Xuan raised his head to take a closer look.
On both sides of the palace were two stone statues of young boys. They had long hair and were dressed in simple robes, and they were bowing deeply, as if they were bowing to the newcomers.
On the plaque in front of the door, there were three large words hanging in the air. They carried a sharp aura, and just by looking at them, one would feel as if they would rush over at any moment and tear the intruder to shreds.
The bowing of the young boys and the murderous handwriting made one feel as if they were trying to use peaceful means before resorting to violence.
"Ran Zi Hall!"
Wu Chen read aloud.
"Most likely, this was written by Ancient Sage Ran Qiu himself."
Zhang Xuan nodded in agreement.
The painting of the three words wasn't too profound, but it gave off a profound aura. Even with his eye of discernment, he was unable to see through it. Most likely, it was left behind by Ancient Sage Ran Qiu himself. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so profound.
Shaking his head, Zhang Xuan bowed deeply to the two words and the young boys before him.
Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, and Trustworthiness. For 'Propriety' to be ranked above Wisdom and Trustworthiness, it was apparent that Kong Shi valued these three words. Since they were in the ancient domain of Ancient Sage Ran Qiu, it would be best for them not to show any disrespect.
Hu!
Right after they finished with the formalities, the young boy statue on the left suddenly opened its eyes and looked at Zhang Xuan with a smile.
"The fact that you are able to enter the Ran Zi Hall speaks volumes about your strength and capability. However, just because you are here doesn't mean that you'll be able to enter. If you wish to enter, you'll have to clear a trial! "
The young boy statue said calmly.
"May I know what kind of trial it is?"
Zhang Xuan clasped his fist.
"Ancient Sage Ran Qiu isn't a fan of complicated formalities, so the trial is very simple. You'll have to challenge one of them each, and as long as you can defeat them, you'll be able to enter. Otherwise, you'll have to return the way you came. "
The young boy statue harrumphed coldly as he raised his hand.
Huala!
The three words on the signboard descended from the sky and landed on the ground. With a slight shudder, they transformed into three identical golden-armored soldiers.
"This …" Zhang Xuan was astonished.
Based on his eyesight, he could tell that these three were neither puppets nor treasures. Instead, they were formed by three large characters. From the inside out, they shone with the same sharp light that had appeared when he had first glanced at them.
"Those are Jin Bing of the Mentor's Calligraphy!"
Seeing Zhang Xuan's confusion, Lozosy explained.
"Jin Bing of the Mentor's Calligraphy?" Zhang Xuan was perplexed.
He had heard of the Impartation of Heaven's Will, Heart of a Teacher, and what was Jin Bing of the Mentor's Calligraphy?
"Legend has it that formidable master teachers are able to leave behind their spirit and psyche in the form of words. Under special circumstances, these words can be transformed into golden warriors and used to battle with others. Due to the fact that these words were left behind by an expert, the golden warriors are imbued with the battle experience and moves of the expert, making them nigh invincible!"
Lozosy explained.
"Possessing the battle experience and moves of that expert … If those words are left behind by Ancient Sage Ran Qiu, doesn't that mean that they possess the battle prowess of that expert?"
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
