Yi Tian crossed the Eastern Hundred Thousand Mountains with the Assault Boat from the Middle State and entered the Eastern Ao territory directly. This could be considered Yi Tian's last visit to his hometown. His plan was to stop at each of the three branches of the Eastern Ao Xuan Yang branch for a while.
Now, the Iron Sword Sect had changed its name to the Iron Sword Courtyard of the Li Fire Sect. Xuan Jianxin was in charge of the sect's affairs while Chou Renjiu and Wu Min were assisting him.
Originally, the two of them were to be transferred to the Commandment Courtyard of the Middle State main branch. However, the two of them did not want to be distracted, so they recommended Yi Lingfeng to take up the position.
Qu Yifeng and the rest naturally knew the reason behind it. They only agreed after consulting Mo Wentian and Shi Qianwei.
This time, after Yi Tian returned to the Iron Sword Gate, he first visited his senior brother Mo Wentian, Chou Renjiu and a few other old friends. Although his cultivation had long surpassed them, Yi Tian did not put on any airs. Instead, they sat down and chatted for a long time just like before.
Mo Wentian knew that there was no hope for him to advance to the Soul Formation realm, so he began to make plans for his future. When he heard that Yi Tian had found the reincarnation of Scarlet Sun Child, his face showed a trace of relief.
Yi Tian knew what he was thinking, so he didn't avoid it and directly told him the pros and cons of reincarnating. Although he could retrieve part of his previous life's memories after reincarnation, he couldn't be careless in his cultivation. He had to rely on himself for everything.
Then, he told Yi Lingfeng in front of everyone that when his senior brother Mo Wentian reached that stage, he had to find a way to find his reincarnation.
After circling around the Iron Sword Sect for many days, the three of them set off to visit the Xuan Ling Courtyard. Now, Nangong Qianyun was in charge. Yi Tian did not want the two children to know too much about his past, so he did not do anything excessive with Nangong Qianyun.
After leaving the Xuan Ling Sect, the flying boat changed direction and sped towards Yi Hua Mountain's River Bay Village.
Half a day later, the flying boat arrived above River Bay Village. Yi Tian looked down and saw that the small village had become a medium-sized city.
Then, he brought his two sons down from the cloud and walked around the city. After a few inquiries, he found out that this place had been renamed to River Bend City. Thirty percent of the residents in the city had the surname Yi. It was a large clan that had been passed down for several hundred years.
There was also a Yi family ancestral hall in the city. It was said that more than thirty generations of ancestors were enshrined there. When Yi Tian heard the news, he said to his two sons, "Let's go take a look at the Yi Ancestral Hall."
In less than three breaths' time, the three of them arrived. Yi Tian took a look at the Yi Clan's ancestral hall from the outside. It wasn't very extravagant. Instead, it looked more like a scholarly family. The ancestral hall wasn't very big either. It was similar to what he remembered.
The three of them walked into the Ancestral Hall. From afar, Yi Tian saw hundreds of memorial tablets placed in the deepest part of the Ancestral Hall. From top to bottom, there were about thirty rows. At the front of the sixth row, there were a few memorial tablets painted in gold. The words that caught his eye were Yi Da and Yi Er.
There were also two memorial tablets in the second row below, but one of them had no name and was empty. When Yi Nan saw this, she secretly asked, "Father, which generation of the Yi family do you belong to?"
Yi Lingfeng hurriedly answered, "The nameless tablet at the top of the seventh row is the one. According to seniority, we are the eighth generation."
After Yi Tian scanned it with his perception, he fell into deep thought. Back then, he had found the half seal at the top of the ancestral hall's memorial tablet. According to his grandfather, his ancestors had seen immortals descending to the mortal world in Mount Yi, so they chose to take root here.
After all, a place that could catch the attention of immortals had to be special.
Previously, he thought that the two Zhong State Li Fire Sect disciples he met in the banyan tree hole in Mount Yi were the immortals his grandfather mentioned. However, on careful thought, he could not match them. His ancestors were only six or seven generations ago, about three hundred years ago. As for the Jin Dan disciple, Lin Yi, he was at least a thousand years old. The timing did not match.
Could it be that other cultivators had come to Mount Yi after that? Or could it be that they had fought over this half seal, allowing his ancestors to take advantage of it?
Upon thinking of this, Yi Tian sent a brief voice transmission to Yi Lingfeng to send Yi Nan to the Scarlet Sun Hills. He then teleported to the sky above Mount Yi.
After three seconds, he scanned the entire mountain with his perception. He realized that the banyan tree hole he had buried back then had been covered by intricate tree vines. And there was nothing special about the mountain that could isolate his perception.
He thought to himself, "Could it be that I was wrong? Was all of this a coincidence? Did my ancestors just happen to pick up this half seal and bring it home?
After pondering for a long time, he released his perception to scan Mount Yi again. This time, he expanded the range by more than twice, covering a radius of five hundred miles.
After a while, he frowned and looked towards the east. There was a spot in the Evergreen River at the foot of Mount Yi that his perception was unable to investigate clearly.
After flying over, he sent his perception into the bottom of the river again. He realized that there was a space about three feet deep that his perception was unable to penetrate.
He lowered his head and thought to himself, "It should be here." Following that, he dived into the river and swam towards that spot.
The entire Evergreen River was about a thousand feet wide. The center of the river was about three to four hundred feet deep. Yi Tian brought out a layer of protective barrier to protect himself as he continued to sink downwards. After reaching a depth of 300 feet, the light started to dim. He casually took out a night pearl to light up the path before continuing to descend.
After thirty seconds, he realized that he was already standing on the mud at the bottom of the river. Following that, he waved his hand and split the water in front of him apart. With a kick, his entire body shot towards that spot.
In less than ten breaths, he arrived at the area where his perception was unable to penetrate. He tossed out the night pearl and lit up the area around him. When he looked down at the mud at the bottom of the river, he realized that there was a thin layer of light flickering. It was covered with water plants and mud. If it wasn't for his strong perception, he might have missed it.
Stretching out his hand, he unleashed a green beam of light that removed the seaweed on top of the halo, revealing a spherical barrier that emitted a faint white light.
At this moment, the seal in the Niwan Palace seemed to tremble, and the enchantment below was directly broken. After three breaths, one of the small balls of light floated up and stopped in front of him.
Yi Tian reached out and grabbed the ball of light. Following that, his figure flashed and he flew up from the bottom of the Evergreen River.
Half a day later, in the depths of the Tiger Jump Cliff Brahma Mantra Secret Cave, Yi Tian opened a barrier to isolate himself from the outside world. Then, he took out the ball of light and carefully examined it.
There seemed to be a shadow flashing within the ball of light. The surrounding light seemed to have sealed it tightly, making it impossible for him to see what it was.
Just as he was at his wit's end, the seal suddenly flew out from his forehead and shot out a ray of light toward the ball of light. Following that, the ball of light was broken, revealing a scroll made of beast skin.
