When Zhang Yu saw Meng Jianzhen's cautious actions, he realized that what he was about to say must be important. Hence, he did not rush to speak and just sat there without moving.
The cloud boat quickly sank into the depths of the sea, and the surroundings became pitch black. Although this was not much of a hindrance to cultivators like them, they could still see things clearly and hear the sounds of the living creatures around them if necessary. However, it was obviously a little dull sitting here.
Meng Jianzhen carried a yellow paper lamp and placed it on the cloud boat. Then, it floated up gently. When it reached a height of ten feet, it released a ball of soft and bright light. In an instant, it dispelled the darkness and lit up the surrounding world with a myriad of colors. It was as if they were in a dream.
She gestured with her hand and said, "Fellow Daoist, please have some tea. This is the 'Apricot Dragon Tea' that I brought from Xuanting. It has the miraculous effect of nourishing the mind."
Zhang Yu stretched out his hand and picked up the celadon teacup on the table to take a sip. He immediately felt an ethereal and clear air permeate his heart, making him feel a little more transparent. At the same time, he also felt that his mind had become more focused, as if he could sense everything around him more clearly. He couldn't help but nod his head. This was indeed a good tea that he couldn't have too much of.
Meng Jianzhen gently pushed the clouds outside the boat, and the boat sailed to another place. The surrounding fish shuttled back and forth. They were clearly in the deep sea, but it was as if they were above the clouds.
At this moment, she said, "We Zhen Xiu cultivators cultivate inwardly, exhaling the clear and expelling the impure. Some Zhen Xiu cultivators believe that life is between heaven and earth, blending with all living things. In the end, we sink into the dirt of the mortal world. We need to be detached from the mortal world to enjoy a clear soul. Hence, many Zhen Xiu cultivators opened up a mysterious realm to avoid the secular world. This was how the Xuan Technique Sect was later developed."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly. In fact, the rise of the Xuan Technique Sect was very complicated. It could not be explained clearly in a few sentences. However, this was indeed one of the reasons and was considered to be one of the main reasons.
Meng Jianzhen looked at him and said, "Fellow Daoist, you are from the Xuanxiu lineage and you cultivate the Great Dao Xuan Chapter. The entry Dao karma is six seals. If any Xuanxiu wants to seek the Great Dao through the Great Dao Xuan Chapter, they must start from this. However, I don't know if Fellow Daoist is aware that there are rumors of the Six Seals of the Great Dao. "
Zhang Yu's lower lip twitched slightly as he said, "This is the first time I've heard of it. I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Meng, what are the Six Seals of the Great Dao?"
Meng Jianzhen said, "The Six Seals of the Great Dao correspond to the Six Seals of the Xuan Fa. Legend has it that these are the fundamental seals of the Great Dao Chapter. Anyone who has one will be able to possess unimaginable abilities.
However, the Great Dao was flawed and could only change constantly. Therefore, the six seals could not be read and gathered in one place. Instead, they were scattered in the world. Only those who were fated to find them in the path of cultivation would have a chance of finding them. “”
At this point, she paused for a moment, "And it is said that when the six seals are gathered, one can use it to take a look at the original Great Dao."
Zhang Yu thought about it. Although Meng Jianzhen was talking about rumors, Solemnly mentioning it at this moment, it was definitely not as simple as a rumor. He looked at her and said, "Does Fellow Daoist Meng suspect that my Imperial Edict is one of the seals?"
Meng Jianzhen nodded slightly and said, "That day when I saw Fellow Daoist Meng intimidating Bai Xiu with a single sentence, I indeed had such a thought. Fellow Daoist, do you know that in these hundreds of years, many Xuanxiu and even True Cultivators have been searching for the whereabouts of the Six Seals? Among them, there is no lack of almighty cultivators.
My generation was ordered by Xuanting to travel the outer continents and investigate the situation of the Xuanfu. Among these, I also investigated the Six Seals of the Great Dao at the same time.
However, the whereabouts of the Six Seals have been unknown for a long time. Occasionally, we would see a seal that looked like it, but after later investigation, it was confirmed that it was not the seal. Therefore, many people did not take it seriously.
However, just ten years ago, in a certain upper continent, a disciple who cultivated the Xuan method was taken in by a Court Administrator. This caused a huge commotion. After that, the matter of searching for the Six Seals of the Great Dao was mentioned again. Therefore, we all suspected that the disciple might have obtained an opportunity and obtained one of the seals.
Fellow Daoist Meng's Imperial Edict that day may have caused some people to be suspicious. Therefore, I am here to remind Fellow Daoist to be careful. "
Zhang Yu pondered for a moment. Whether or not the Imperial Edict Seal that he grasped was one of the Six Seals of the Great Dao was still uncertain. However, since this matter involved the almighty of the upper realm, it was not wrong to be cautious.
Although it was rumored that the disciple who was suspected to have grasped a Seal of the Great Dao was taken in by a Court Administrator and seemed to be a good thing, if it was another person, it might not be so. Moreover, the truth of this matter was not known to anyone other than the person involved.
If the Six Seals were really as rumored and could allow one to peek into the Great Dao, then it was not without temptation for the almighty of the upper realm. These people might not necessarily reason with a junior disciple of an unequal status.
He understood that Meng Jianzhen was willing to talk to him about this because he returned Xiao Han Sheng's relics. Therefore, he raised his hand and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your reminder, Fellow Daoist Meng."
Meng Jianzhen said, "Fellow Daoist Meng is too polite." She saw that after hearing this, Zhang Yu still looked calm and composed. She secretly admired him. She knew that if she had grasped a Seal of the Great Dao, she would not be able to be so calm and carefree.
She gently stroked the jade flute in her hand and said, "After today, I will return to Yujing. If Fellow Daoist has any questions, if I know, I will be able to answer them."
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "According to what I know, my generation in Xuanxiu has obtained the fourth chapter of the book. If I want to obtain the Great Dao, I need to accumulate merit and experience. Fellow Daoist Meng is from Xuanting, I wonder if you have any advice on this?"
Meng Huanzhen thought for a moment and said seriously, "Fellow Daoist Meng has united the sects inside and outside the continent, established the old rules of Xuanfu, and created things in Extinguishing Frost Continent. Your merit is not small. When you come down and report to Xuanting, Xuanting will certainly grant you merit. However, I believe that this merit alone is not enough to confer the Great Dao.
When Fellow Daoist Meng comes down, you may have the opportunity to change your position. At that time, you can choose to stay in Qingyang Upper Continent or choose to go elsewhere. However, although it is stable to preside over a continent and you can also accumulate experience, it is slow to gain merit. If Fellow Daoist Meng wants to improve, I suggest that you go to other continents to take up a post, or simply go to the outer region. "
Zhang Yu nodded. The outer region was a place where battles occurred frequently, but it had always been the fastest place to accumulate merit. He said, "Fellow Daoist Meng, how much do you know about the situation in the outer region?"
Meng Huanzhen said seriously, "Tianxia faces many enemies in the outer region, but the biggest threat is undoubtedly the cultivators of 'Shangchen'.
The cultivators of Shangchen and I come from the same origin. However, the cultivators of Shangchen and Xuanting do not agree, so they have been hostile to me for a long time. "
She picked up the celadon teacup and took a sip. "Currently, within the continents of Tianxia, there are many cultivators who are not under control and have been roped in by them, or have secretly pledged allegiance to them. Therefore, this senior is very familiar with my supernatural powers and cultivation methods, so he is currently my biggest enemy. If Fellow Daoist Meng encounters him in the future, you must be careful."
As a Xuanzheng of a continent, Zhang Yu could freely flip through the books in Xuanfu. In fact, he had heard a little about Shangchen in the past, but the records in the books were only a few words. Since Meng Huanzhen was in front of him, he might as well ask in detail. Meng Huanzhen also told him everything she knew.
Although Qingyang Upper Continent communicated with other continents from time to time, it was a secluded place, and the things it knew were limited. Yujing was the center of Tianxia, and news from all continents gathered there. Meng Huanzhen came from there and knew a lot. Therefore, after this exchange, Zhang Yu felt that his horizons were broadened.
At this moment, the paper lantern above them dimmed slightly. Meng Huanzhen saw it and said, "The time has come."
She reached out and gently pushed the clouds, and the cloud boat slowly ascended to the surface of the sea. Then, she dispersed the clouds, stood up, and bowed. "Fellow Daoist Zhang, I will be returning to Yujing. I will bid you farewell here."
At this moment, she waved her hand and handed over a jade talisman. "Fellow Daoist Zhang, if you ever come to Yujing, you can bring a letter to the Glazed Jade Heavenly Palace. I will be a good host."
Zhang Yu took the jade talisman and glanced at it. It was a teardrop-shaped scarlet jade, and its appearance was quite exquisite. He put it in his Purple Star Pouch, then raised his sleeves and cupped his hands. "When I go to Yujing in the future, I will naturally pay you a visit. Fellow Daoist Meng, have a safe journey."
Meng Huanzhen nodded lightly. She didn't seem to do anything, but the clouds on the cloud boat rolled over and turned into a streak of neon cloud, escaping into the sky.
Zhang Yu watched her leave. With a flick of his sleeve, the clouds on his body glowed with green light, and he turned into a long rainbow, returning to the mainland. He landed in the Inspection Department of the Guangzhou Province.
After he entered the inner hall, a disciple came up and said, "When Xuan Zheng left, a Daoist child sent a letter for Xuan Zheng to personally open."
Zhang Yu took the letter and saw a bone whistle at the bottom left corner. He knew it was from the Peach Determination Talisman, so he dismissed the disciple. Then, he returned to the inner hall and sat down. He opened the letter and saw that it wasn't an urgent matter. He first took care of some mundane matters, then entered the inner room to meditate.
The next day, after he took care of some matters, he rose into the air and headed to the Shi Qu Temple in Dangle County of Gaozhou.
Half a summer later, he landed in the Daoist temple. He saw that the bamboos, trees, fountains, and rocks were exquisite. Many Daoists were sitting by the river, fishing leisurely.
After taking a few steps, he seemed to have sensed something. He raised his head and saw the Peach Determination Talisman in a red robe standing in a small pavilion above. He smiled and greeted him, "Junior Brother, come and sit here."
Zhang Yu walked up the stone steps to the small pavilion. He saw that this was the highest point of the Daoist temple, so he could take in the scenery inside and outside the temple. He took a few glances and said, "The scenery here is not bad. Senior Brother, you found a good place."
Peach Determination Talisman leaned against the railing and looked at him. He smiled and said, "Although heaven and earth can be my teacher, barren mountains and unruly rivers can't be a good teacher. After watching for a long time, it's inevitable that both sides will dislike each other. The beautiful scenery is more pleasing to the eye, and can be a good teacher for my generation."
After looking at the scenery for a while, Peach Determination Talisman invited Zhang Yu to sit in front of the stone table in the pavilion. He said, "Junior Brother, you asked me to build a flying boat last time. I've been free recently and am preparing to do it. However, there are some changes in the matter now, so I have to inform you."
