The figure said, "Senior Zhan Kong, have you forgotten the agreement between your sect and Shangchen that day?"
Zhan Kong said in a deep voice, "That was just my Junior Brother acting on his own initiative. Since when did we have an agreement with you?"
The figure said, "Dear Junior Brother, aren't you the head of your sect?"
Zhan Kong said coldly, "Since when are there any sects now? There has never been a head of a sect. "
The figure said with a smile, "It's useless for Senior Zhan Kong to stop me. Since I'm here, that person must have sensed it. It's not up to you to decide whether the agreement is fulfilled or not."
Zhan Kong raised his hand expressionlessly and crushed the talisman. The talisman suddenly shattered, and the illusory aura dissipated without any support.
He pondered and frowned secretly, "Senior Brother is not here, and Junior Brother has no one to control him. He must be restless. No, I have to go back for this matter. I have to delay them no matter what."
He took out a jade talisman and tossed it out. Only after watching this thing fly towards the Eastern Court Profound Palace did he turn into a streak of light and fly away.
At this moment, Ban Lan didn't wait for the flying boat to stop before taking action. Instead, he took He Li and a few others out of the flying boat through the passage provided by the flying boat for soldiers. He used Xuntian Dao Zhang to find someone to pick them up and landed in Hanzhou of Qingyang Upper Continent.
The group of people came to a manor in the suburbs. There were already people waiting for them here. The leader was a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old. He had a fair face and an elegant appearance. He came up and bowed, saying respectfully, "Are you Mr. Ban?"
Ban Lan bowed back and said, "Yes, I am. Are you Di Langjun? Thank you for your help this time. "
Di Langjun said with a smile, "Don't mention it. I've benefited a lot from you. I'm very happy to work for you."
The Di Clan was a big clan in Qingyang Upper Continent. The clan leader, Di Chong, and the previous Prefecture Overseer were brothers-in-law. Although the Prefecture Overseer had changed and their reputation was not as good as before, they still had their own Tianji Workshop.
After exchanging greetings with Ban Lan, Di Langjun led the group of people to a small flying boat.
Ban Lan looked over and saw that the flying boat was shaped like a big worm. Its chest and abdomen were thick and heavy, wrapped in dense armor. The back of the boat was light like a gauze, and the inside could be vaguely seen. The four front limbs under the abdomen clasped the ground. Although the back half was slightly lifted and suspended in the air, its center of gravity was very stable.
Di, Di Langjun said, "Please take a look. it. Although it looks like this, it's very good in fact, it can hide. it can avoid a lot of unnecessary surveillance."
He Li didn't like her showing off, so he said, "Madam Di, are you trying to avoid something? You're not a sneaky person. "
Di Langjun glanced at him and then looked at Ban Lan. He smiled and said, "Mister, although the gods and monsters have been eliminated in recent years, there are always other things to fill the empty space. There are always some spiritual creatures outside this Upper Continent. With this kind of creation flying ship, we can avoid being targeted by these things."
He Li said bluntly, "Sir, why are you afraid of these?"
Di Langjun said calmly, "Sir, you're not afraid. But you can have less trouble and have more peace. As students, we have to be more considerate, don't we?"
Ban Lan said, "Thank you, Di Langjun."
Di Langjun suddenly bowed to Ban Lan and said sincerely, "Mr. Ban, I know your ambition. I'm willing to follow you. I hope you can give me a chance."
Ban Lan looked at him and said, "You have some achievements in Qi Refinement. Well, you can follow me this time. I'll teach you Dao."
Di Langjun said respectfully, "Thank you, teacher."
Nowadays, people could find Xuntian Dao Zhang to learn Dao. However, becoming a teacher was not only for learning Dao. The teacher's connections and reputation could be shared by close disciples.
Of course, powerful disciples could also become part of the teacher's reputation and connections. It was a relationship of mutual dependence. Madam Di observed Ban Lan for a long time before allowing him to join her.
After all, Ban Lan himself was a Xuanxiu in the fourth chapter of the book. In the future, he might become a Xuan Zun. If he joined her now, he might gain more in the future.
Ban Lan didn't stay here for long. After a short rest, he got on the Cold Toad Flying Boat and flew to the East Court.
In Shangchen, in the palace of a small sect on the edge of the border, Jin Zhixing was teaching several disciples Xuanxiu's Dharma Access.
Halfway through the teaching, he saw a cloud of gray mist coming from outside. He said, "That's all for today. You can leave now."
All the disciples stood up and bowed before leaving the palace.
Jin Zhixing stood up and looked at Hunkong Laozu who came in from outside. He bowed and said, "Why are you here, Fellow Daoist Hun Kong?"
Hunkong Laozu said, "Tianxia's Jade Booklet has been sent. It's the same as the news reported by Kim Daoist."
Jin Zhixing said, "It's good that things went well."
Hunkong Laozu said, "If you didn't report it first, it might not have gone so smoothly."
Jin Zhixing knew what he meant. However, it was not appropriate for him to talk about this topic since he had just joined them. He only said, "What's the plan?"
Fellow Daoist Hun Kong said, "Now that the second Jade Booklet has been sent out, we'll see how Tianxia responds. If we can't come to an agreement, we'll have to fight."
Jin Zhixing nodded. He understood. Now, both sides were communicating. At the same time, they were also preparing for the battle. Some chess pieces had already been placed. If they could not reach an agreement in the end, Shang Chen Tian would have no choice but to go to war.
He sighed half-seriously and said, "It seems like this fight is inevitable."
Hunkong Laozu said, "Fellow Daoist, don't worry. It's not like Shangchen doesn't have anything to rely on. However, unless it's absolutely necessary, we don't want to take that path. Just like what Exalted Xian Ding said, it's better not to fight if we can. After all, who can guarantee that their lives won't be in danger when the time comes? However, the prerequisite is that Tianxia is willing to give in. "
Jin Zhixing recalled the contents of the Jade Booklet and sighed, "This is a little difficult. Tianxia is so stubborn. It seems like it won't work if I don't give in first."
In the beginning, he didn't understand why Shangchen dared to raise those conditions. Now that he heard Hunkong Laozu's words, he understood that Shangchen also had some confidence. He thought to himself, "I wonder if Shouzheng knows about this. I have to find a way to inform Shouzheng as soon as possible. "
Hunkong Laozu said, "Shangchen is already weak. How much can we give in? However, this decision isn't in our hands. We can only wait for the next result. "
He paused and said, "I'm here this time because there are some matters in the sect that I've decided to hand over to you. I'll leave the document here. You can take your time to read it."
After saying a few more words, he bid farewell and left.
After sending off Hunkong Laozu, Jin Zhixing turned back. He couldn't help but ponder in his heart.
There was one thing he still couldn't be sure of. Did Lingdu Daoist suspect him? Did he see through his identity?
Did Hunkong Laozu deliberately come this time to reassure him, or did he deliberately want him to pass on a message? Furthermore, he deliberately arranged for him to be at the edge of Shangchen. Could it be that it was convenient for him to communicate with Tianxia?
Some things weren't good to think about. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. The more he thought about it, the more he felt a chill run down his spine. He decisively stopped himself from thinking about it.
At this time, he took out the document left behind by Hunkong Laozu. There wasn't anything complicated on it, but it asked him to take care of a few Xuanxiu spies on Tianxia's side.
He looked at these Shangchen counterparts with a solemn expression. He secretly wondered why Xian Ding had asked him to take care of this matter. Was it to test him?
But on second thought, he felt that he was overthinking it.
Shangchen was different from Tianxia. How could these high and mighty Xuan Zun care about a few insignificant spies? This matter was given to him purely because he just so happened to know Xuan Dao.
He read down the names and called out the Great Dao Handbook. He secretly sent the words he just said to Hunkong Laozu and this list of names to Zhang Yu.
In the Taoist field in the Land of Chaos, Zhang Yu's body emitted a clear light that enveloped the entire hall. In front of him floated a faintly discernible ball of purple light.
Under the premise of sufficient precious materials, after a period of sacrificial refining, this protective magic tool had gradually been completed. Now, it had reached the most critical moment.
Refining this kind of magic tool didn't require ordinary means. The whole process had to be completed in the light of the heart. Moreover, it had to be completed in one go to ensure that it didn't touch the Qi of Heaven and Earth. After refining, it had to be melted into the void and finally returned to the world.
During this process, there couldn't be a single mistake, and the order couldn't be reversed. Otherwise, all the previous efforts would be wasted.
Although the sacrificial refining failed, some precious materials were damaged, so it could be tried again. However, the sacrificial refining involved some subtle changes in the mind. The first sacrificial refining was always the easiest, but it would become more and more difficult later. Therefore, he hoped to succeed on the first try and didn't need to repeat it.
At this time, as the clear light surged, the purple gas gradually turned into a light fog and became more and more invisible. After a period of time, there was only a barely noticeable wisp of purple light left in the clear light.
He focused his mind on it and saw that the purple light was constantly shrinking. At the moment when it couldn't retreat anymore, a mysterious feeling suddenly emerged in his heart.
At this moment, the illusory door exploded. At this extreme moment, the ball of purple gas that he had refined was transferred from the world to the void!
At the same time, the mysterious cicada flashed and flew over, transferring a wisp of divine Qi that belonged to him.
At this time, his eyes flashed slightly. Without waiting for the door to close, a huge light appeared in his heart. It was as if the entire world was pouring down on him, and he guided the purple gas back again.
At this time, when he raised his eyes again, he saw a ball of purple light that was neither real nor illusory, like a mist, had already appeared in front of him.
