By the time they left the Heart of Mirror Pavilion and found their lodging, it was already late.
Zhang Xuan didn't go out for a stroll. Instead, he sat in his room, consolidating his newly advanced cultivation base and carefully sensing the power in his body.
Cultivation was an arduous process. It wasn't something that could be achieved overnight. Even a genius like him had to constantly work hard to achieve what he had today.
With this breakthrough, his soul cultivation and zhenqi cultivation had reached Great Sage 2-dan consummation simultaneously. Paired with the Dragonbone Divine Spear, Time, and Spatial Quintessences, he would be able to put up a fight against even Sempiternal realm consummation experts.
Unlike before, he could only rely on external forces such as Kong Shi's blood.
For the next few days, he stayed in his residence and didn't go out much.
Three days later, the members of the Zhang Clan gathered at Zhang Xuan's residence.
Through their cultivation, the Xingmeng Sword Saint and Xingmeng Sword Saint had already reinforced their Sempiternal realm cultivation. If the two of them were to execute their swordsmanship in concert with one another, they would be able to put up a fight against even Sempiternal realm consummation experts. There were already very few beneath Ancient Sage who would be able to harm them.
This time, almost all of the grand elders of the Zhang clan who were in seclusion had come. Zhang Xuan glanced over and saw that there were more than twenty of them who had reached the Sempiternal realm.
As expected of the number one clan on the Master Teacher Continent, their heritage was truly frightening.
"Zhang Xuan, I heard it's very lively outside … Are you interested in taking a look?"
On the fifth day, Lozosy came looking for him.
"Alright!" Zhang Xuan nodded.
Ever since he arrived at Qufu, he had been cultivating all the time. It was indeed a little boring, so he decided to go out and take a look.
Walking out of his residence, he found that the town before him had become much more lively than it had been four days ago. Not only were there countless master teachers and experts from the Mingshi Tang School, there were also many old ancestors and grand elders from other occupations.
This place had become a paradise for experts.
There were even many Great Saint-level Saint Beasts flying over.
However, although there were many people, everything was in order. There were no conflicts. The battles and competitions were very harmonious.
"This is the Holy Land. No one dares to cause trouble here. If there is a conflict, they will leave the city to fight!"
Lozosy saw through his doubts and said.
Qufu, where the Temple of Confucius was located, was the ancestral land of the Mingshi Tang. There was probably no one who would be so foolish as to cause trouble here.
"Do you think that there are any Otherworldly Demons here?"
Walking along the street, Zhang Xuan looked at the crowd in front of him.
Legend had it that even the Otherworldly Demon Emperor was capable of disguising himself as a master teacher, such that not even a Nine Stars master teacher would be able to see through his disguise.
Since the Saint Beasts and the human race's many professional powerhouses had come, these people would definitely not give up on this opportunity and would join in.
"There should be!"
Nodding, Lozosy suddenly recalled something, and she turned to Zhang Xuan and said, "Once the ancient domain of the Temple of Confucius opens, those who enter will appear at random locations. When the time comes … you must be careful! "
"Randomly appear?" Zhang Xuan was stunned.
"Un. Over the past few days, Wu Chen has been looking into the matter regarding the opening of the Temple of Confucius. According to him, as soon as the Temple of Confucius opens, we'll be shrouded in an instant and teleported to a random location. No one knows where we'll be teleported to, but there's a good chance that there will be Otherworldly Demons among those teleported to the Temple of Confucius. So, we mustn't get careless!"
Lozosy said.
"Yes! I will! "Zhang Xuan nodded.
If it was really a random teleportation, he would have to disguise himself.
Putting aside the Otherworldly Demons, even the Hundred Schools of Philosophers had a grudge against him.
While he was not weak, he was still outnumbered by the Otherworldly Demons. Who would have thought that he would be killed before he could even enter the Temple of Confucius?
"This is a pendant that my father gave me. If you encounter any danger, it'll be able to save your life."
Lozosy hesitated for a moment before taking out a pendant from around her neck and passing it over to Zhang Xuan.
The pendant had a crystalline appearance, but its interior was crimson, reminiscent of blood.
"This …" Zhang Xuan was perplexed to see the pendant that Luo Ruoxin was passing to him.
Even if the Temple of Confucius was dangerous, he was still a Sempiternal realm consummation expert. Even if someone wanted to make a move on him, it would not be that easy!
"Take it. No one knows what's going on in the Temple of Confucius. If there's an artifact that can allow one to achieve a breakthrough to Ancient Sage or an Otherworldly Demon, your identity might be exposed, and you'll be in trouble! "
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was unwilling to accept the pendant, Lozosy said.
By identity, she was referring to his identity as a Celestial Master Teacher.
Zhang Xuan fell silent.
Luo Ruoxin was right.
Ten thousand years ago, it was impossible for anyone to achieve a breakthrough to Ancient Sage on the Master Teacher Continent. However, the Temple of Confucius had been sealed for several dozen millenniums. It was not impossible for there to be an artifact that could allow one to achieve a breakthrough to Ancient Sage!
If an Otherworldly Demon were to obtain it and learn of his identity, there was a good chance that he would be hunted down.
He did not care much about dealing with Sempiternal realm cultivators, but it was better for him to flee as far as he could from an Ancient Sage.
They were not on the same level at all.
"I'll take this. What about you?"
Knowing that Luo Ruoxin was doing this out of goodwill, Zhang Xuan took the pendant and asked doubtfully.
If this pendant could really protect his life, what would happen to Luo Ruoxin?
"You don't have to worry about me. Even if I can't defeat them, I'll still be able to escape …" Lozosy shook her head. Not wanting to dwell on this matter, she turned to Zhang Xuan and said, "Earlier, I saw Luo Qiqi!"
"Luo Qiqi?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback. "She came here?"
He had not seen Lozosy after parting ways with the Luo Clan. Since he had seen her, could it be that she was here as well?
Thinking about it, it did make sense. With the Dimension Silencer in hand, Luo Qiqi's strength was on par with Sempiternal realm cultivators. With the opening of the Temple of Confucius being such a huge event, it was not too surprising that she would appear here.
"Indeed. She's a good girl!"
Luo Ruoxin paused for a moment before continuing.
"Ruoxin, are you … alright?"
Seeing Luo Ruoxin suddenly praising her love rival, Zhang Xuan frowned.
"I'm fine. It's just that I'm afraid that we won't be able to meet again once the Temple of Confucius opens!"
Luo Ruoxin's flawless face was filled with worry.
No one knew where they would be teleported to once they entered the Temple of Confucius. Their life and death would no longer be in their hands.
Perhaps, this might be the last time they would meet.
"Don't worry. Even if there's danger in the Temple of Confucius, we'll definitely be able to survive it together."
Seeing that Luo Ruoxin was actually worried about this matter, Zhang Xuan sighed helplessly.
Ever since they had met, Luo Ruoxin had always been nonchalant and nonchalant about everything. Why would she suddenly become so emotional today?
With the Temple of Confucius opening, the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, the Hundred Schools of Philosophers, and countless experts would enter. Danger was inevitable, but it would not be that easy for them to kill him.
Even though he knew how powerful Luo Ruoxin was, the fact that he was unable to see through her meant that she was even more frightening than him!
Since that was the case, what did he have to fear?
"Let's not talk about this for now." Luo Ruoxin interjected with a smile. She stretched out her hand and asked, "Where's the Prime Amulet? Can I take a look at it? "
"It's here!"
Zhang Xuan flicked his wrist and took out the Little Amulet before passing it over.
The two of them had obtained the Prime Amulet together, so there was no harm in Luo Ruoxin giving it to her.
