The moment Zhang Yu entered the Desolate Ruins, he suddenly felt that he was being watched by someone. He turned his head and saw a faint shadow standing there, looking at him coldly, but it disappeared in an instant.
Even though it was only for a moment, he could tell that it was a Yuan Spirit Reflection, and it looked very hostile. Without hesitation, he immediately communicated with the Azure Sun Wheel with his consciousness, and a purple halo enveloped his body.
Soon, he saw an immortal-like Daoist flying over from afar on light.
This time, it was still a Yuan Spirit projection that came.
Logically speaking, there was no need to be so careful when dealing with a cultivator who was one level lower than him.
However, Jia Luo did not forget that Zhang Yu's position of Xuan Zheng was bestowed by Xuanfu. Perhaps Xuanting would give him some powerful means, so he would rather make this choice. If there were no accidents, a Spirit Reflection entrusted with most of his Spirit Qi would be enough to deal with an opponent whose cultivation was lower than his.
Zhang Yu's eyes flickered, and he was about to let go of the Azure Sun Wheel, but at this moment, Jia Luo's figure suddenly stopped. His expression changed slightly as he glanced in a certain direction, and then his body fled like a wisp of smoke, quickly disappearing.
Zhang Yu was a little surprised, but he did not relax his vigilance. However, he soon knew why the other party retreated. A golden light flew over from the horizon and landed nearby. After the light dissipated, Daoist Wan Ming walked out and saluted, "Greetings, Xuan Zheng."
Zhang Yu raised his sleeve and saluted, "Why is Daoist Wan Ming here? “
Daoist Wan Ming said, "I have an Immortal's Cave near here. Recently, many of my fellow disciples have been placed here by me, but when I arrived a few days ago, I saw an evil cultivator wandering around. I was afraid that he was colluding with the people of Shuang Continent, so I have been keeping an eye on him these days, but now it seems that his target is Xuan Zheng."
Zhang Yu looked in the direction that Jia Luo had left and said, "It seems that some of my previous actions have displeased some people. However, since they have come to find me, it means that I have done something right."
Solemnly, Daoist Wan Ming said, "Xuan Zheng, this person's mana is not weak. If you are going to the outer realm, please be careful."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Thank you for your reminder."
Since the other party had cultivated the Primordial Spirit Reflection, only Xuanxiu, who had read the fourth chapter of the book, could compare with him. Facing such an opponent, even with the protection of the Azure Sun Wheel, it was not necessarily foolproof.
At this time, Daoist Wan Ming said, "Xuan Zheng, recently I have tried to persuade the various Daoist sects. Originally, they were already wavering, but the people of Shuang Continent retreated not long ago, and now they have changed their minds."
Zhang Yu: "That's human nature. It's not that easy to give up such a huge foundation."
Now, although Xuanfu had a righteous name, they did not have the power to persuade the various Daoist sects. However, once he had succeeded in his cultivation, he would help them make up their minds.
The two of them chatted as they walked. As they spoke, they had already left the Barren Ruins. In front of them was Gaozhou. Zhang Yu parted ways with Daoist Wan Ming here and rushed towards the continent. This time, he did not encounter any obstacles on the way and smoothly returned to Mizar Academy.
After the conveyance light landed in the academy, he first went to Chengzheng Courtyard. Through the internal channels, he spread the news of the abnormal situation of the demonic fish. At the same time, he also sent a letter to Xuanfu to ensure that the news reached its destination.
After doing this, he returned to Jintai's residence.
Li Qinghe, Qing Shu, and Qing Xi had already received the news of his return and were all in the main hall to welcome him.
As soon as Zhang Yu stepped into the main hall, he sensed that there was a slight uneasiness in their hearts. He asked, "When I was not here, did something happen?"
Qing Shu came up and clasped his hands. "Sir, a Daoist came half a month ago. It looks like he's here to harm you."
Zhang Yu: "What did he look like?"
Qing Shu shook his head. He did not know why, but although he saw the person, he could not recall his appearance.
At this time, Zhang Yu seemed to have sensed something. He gestured for the three of them to stay here and walked out of the main hall. Then, he saw Cao Liang standing outside the door. He said, "Since you're here, why don't you come in and have a seat?"
Cao Liang clasped his hands and said politely, "No, Zhang Xuanzheng. I'll leave after saying a few words."
Zhang Yu: "Is it because of that Daoist?"
Cao Liang nodded and said, "The academy has already investigated. That person is called Jia Luo. He's an evil cultivator. This person's cultivation level is very high. This time, he's probably here to cause trouble for Xuanzheng. I hope Xuanzheng will be more careful in the future."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Thank you for telling me, Cao Liang."
Cao Liang shook his head and said, "I'm just here on the academy's order to pass on a message to Zhang Xuanzheng. Xuanzheng, you don't have to thank me. Now that I've delivered the message, I'll take my leave." He clasped his hands and turned to leave.
Zhang Yu came back from outside and asked Qing Shu a few more questions. Then, he let the three of them go their separate ways. He went to the quiet room alone. However, as soon as he entered, he noticed something strange. The spiritual house that was originally placed on the table had fallen to the ground.
According to Qing Shu, when Jia Luo arrived, the academy immediately reacted to the golden platform because of his unknown origin. Then, it sank into the ground.
It seemed that this thing fell down because it was shaken during the process.
As soon as he looked at it, the spiritual house flew out from under the table and floated in front of him. However, it seemed to be no different from before. There was no sign of it being developed.
He looked at the item with a meaningful gaze, then gently waved his sleeve and put the item back to its original position.
He turned around and pressed his hand on the "Jade Minister" in the middle of the quiet room. After a while, a square platform made of metal and stone that was about ten feet tall moved horizontally out from the left side of the quiet room.
The inside of the platform was hollow and covered with a thick layer of glass. Inside, there was a colorful bird flying back and forth. It was about the size of a fist, with a long sharp beak and bright red claws. Under the bright illumination of the golden stone, its wings and tail feathers appeared bright and dazzling.
After flying for a while, it seemed to be tired. A cloud of mist floated around its body. Then, it bent its slender and beautiful neck backward and lay on the cloud of mist to sleep peacefully.
This bird was called the "Mountain Crane". It had the ability to control clouds and flying rainbows. Different from the spiritual creatures in the wild, it was one of the precious creatures that came with Tianxia. In the past, it was used as a mount by Zhen Xiu.
This was still a young bird in the process of growing, but the spiritual changes were innate. The only difference was the level.
Zhang Yu stood in front of the glass wall and observed the spiritual changes in the cloud of mist. His eyes flickered slightly.
Behind him, a trace of blue light leaked out from the crack of the spiritual house. However, it quickly converged and became as still as before.
Jia Luo's attempt to get rid of Zhang Yu was unsuccessful, so he returned to his cave. However, his expression was not very good.
He also knew Daoist Wan Ming. Daoist Wan Ming was strong, and he knew that he was no match for him. Therefore, when Daoist Wan Ming's escape light appeared, he decisively left.
If Zhang Yu had Daoist Wan Ming's protection, then he would definitely not be able to do anything to him.
Now, he suspected that his junior brother had died at the hands of Wan Ming.
However, "that side" did not tell him this news. This mistake could not be borne by him alone.
After he thought about it, he used the light to transmit the message and spread the news.
After waiting for a night, the jade glass in front of the cave flickered. He was a little surprised. He shook his sleeves and walked outside.
In the distance, an insect-shaped flying ship flew over and stopped above the cave. It slowly descended and landed on the flat ground. The cabin door opened and a metal giant walked out from it.
He held a jade box in his hand. There was no indication of his origin on his body. The outer armor he wore was also very different from the outer armor of the two residences.
This person came in front of Jia Luo and put down the things. He cupped his fists and said, "Mister Jia, we received your news. However, Daoist Wan Ming took it as an accident. According to the information we received, the two of them were not on good terms. Instead, they had some conflicts with each other."
Jia Luo glanced at him and said, "Are you trying to say that my judgment was wrong?"
The metal giant said, "We don't mean that. However, we suggest that Mister Jia try again. If you see Wan Ming again, then we will allow you to give up and treat it as if you have fulfilled your oath."
When Jia Luo heard this, he felt that this statement was more sincere. However, he did not relent because of this. He said, "But my Junior Brother can't die in vain."
The metal giant picked up the jade box and patted it with his hand. He said, "We understand Mister Jia's difficulties, so we sent this over." As he said this, he handed the box over.
Jia Luo did not use his hands to receive it. He channeled his mana and the jade box seemed to be supported by an invisible hand. It floated closer and then opened. He saw a golden bronze cauldron inside. His eyes lit up. He recognized that this was the instrument left behind by his teacher. It was the item that the other party had promised. He did not expect it to be sent back first.
However, this was not the most important thing.
His gaze shifted to the three incense sticks beside the golden bronze cauldron. At first, he was a little confused, but then his expression changed. He said in disbelief, "This is … Wan Luo Incense?"
The metal giant said, "It's just an imitation. The 'Wan Luo Incense' has been used up by Mister Jia's grandmaster, Patriarch Yuan Tong. We found some ashes and asked someone else to refine this thing. Although its power is not as great as the original, it should be enough."
Jia Luo pondered for a moment. With the golden cauldron, he could use the power of his teacher's supernatural powers. He was confident that he could fight against Daoist Wan Ming. If he had this' Wan Luo Incense ', even if it was only ten or twenty percent of its original power, it would be enough for him.
He channeled his mana and sent the two items into the cave behind him. He then looked up and said, "I will do this as soon as possible. However, I hope that you will inform me as soon as you have any news."
The metal giant said politely, "Of course, we will inform Mister Jia as soon as we have any news. Mister Jia, if there is nothing else, we will take our leave."
Jia Luo watched as he turned around and returned to the flying boat. He then watched as the flying boat left before returning to the cave.
He looked at the jade box and his eyes flickered. For a moment, countless thoughts emerged from the bottom of his heart.
Why was he hiding in the Waste Region? It was because his own strength was limited and he was afraid of being hunted down by those True Cultivators. That was why he did not dare to show his face. Now that he had these two items, it would not be a problem to deal with Zhang Yu. Other than that, he could try to do more things.
