After being transferred to Cuiyu Lake, hundreds of thousands of miles away from the sect, with the sky high and the emperor far away, Yanzhuang started his own plan.

He suddenly became "degenerate" and took advantage of his status as a high-ranking disciple of Xingxiu Palace to build a large harem in a short period of time through half-force and half-enticement.

In just a few decades, hundreds of children were born.

Because of the use of the Secret Spirit Cleansing Technique of Blood Inheritance, the proportion of descendants with cultivation qualifications is extremely high, and there are even many descendants with foundation-building potential.

In this way, Yan Zhuang relied on his own efforts to create a powerful Yan family of immortal cultivators in just thirty or forty years.

And the spirit of the ancient paintings, which had long fallen into a state of filth and mist, also relied on this special secret method to circulate in the bodies of each bloodline heir, using the power of life and creation to wash away the lead little by little.

Yanzhuang, full of expectations, is already waiting for the final harvest.

However, at this time, something unexpected happened to everyone.

In the contemporary Xingxiu Palace, the True Lord Nascent Soul, who was in his prime, suddenly fell.

This sudden bad news caught everyone in Xingxiu Palace off guard.

More importantly, because it comes so suddenly, the selection and training of successors has not officially begun, which will inevitably lead to a series of negative consequences.

Not only is the Nascent Soul absent, but the Xingxiu Palace is also likely to be invaded by foreign enemies during this period of weakness.

There is another equally important question, who should be promoted to the top position within the Constellation Palace?

Because at this time, it is impossible to practice step by step and reach the upper level, and some extremely precious spiritual objects and heavy treasures will inevitably be used in order to smash out a Nascent Soul in the shortest possible time.

So, who will enjoy such a great gift?

Xingxiu Palace, which was invincible just a moment ago and no one dared to challenge it, suddenly fell into internal and external troubles.

This sudden change was not only beyond the expectations of others in Xingxiu Palace, it was also completely beyond Yan Zhuang's expectations.

His plan was completely disrupted because of this incident.

When the Xingxiu Palace decided to close the mountain and recall all the expatriate disciples, Yanzhuang had to leave the foundation of Cuiyu Lake and return to the Xingxiu Palace alone, although he was unwilling to do so.

It's not like he hasn't considered disobeying the sect's orders and forcing him to stay.

But he knew very well that it was still unknown whether the "Blood Heir Cleansing Spirit" plan could succeed.

But as an authentic disciple of Xingxiu Palace, if he did not return to the sect before Xingxiu Palace closed the mountain, but stayed alone outside, not to mention he was just a foundation builder, even a pill formation, in the long decades or hundreds of years

Under time, he will definitely die!

Moreover, there is a high probability that the death will be mysterious, and even the real cause of death and who the real murderer is will not be known.

One is his immediate life safety, and the other is his future career. Faced with such a dilemma, Yan Zhuang chose to save his own life first.

Moreover, before leaving, he also made many back-up arrangements.

After the Xingxiu Palace was closed, internal and external traffic was isolated. Only occasionally would some general information be transmitted back through the "eyes" placed outside and loyal to the Xingxiu Palace, so that the Xingxiu Palace would not be ignorant of the changes outside.

But this level of understanding is far from enough for Yanzhuang.

He desperately wants to know the information about Jade Lake, which has become his only hope on the road to greatness!

Therefore, he took the initiative to apply to become an "observer".

It's okay in ordinary times, but if you hold this position during the period when the Constellation Palace is closed, you really need to have a spirit of self-sacrifice.

The Xingxiu Palace is closed to the public, isolating internal and external traffic.

But it is impossible for Xingxiu Palace to really make itself blind, and some secret tricks arranged in advance will be activated.

Using the "foreshadowing" laid in the spiritual world over the long years, let them be your own eyes, or even your own hands, to understand changes in the outside world, and occasionally even remotely control them to do some things.

In the Constellation Palace, the one connected to it is the "observer".

And when necessary, the "observation envoy" even needs to respond to the soul call of the "little brother" outside to help do some things and solve some troubles.

This is also a way to maintain the relationship with each other. Otherwise, once the mountain is closed, contact will be lost for a hundred or two hundred years. No matter how loyal the "little brother" has been for several generations, he will inevitably have murmurs in his heart or even be shaken.

This is actually very risky.

The worst thing that can happen is that the "little brother" becomes wild.

Before responding to the call, no one knows what is going on on the other side. It would be a tragedy if the "little brother" were to use it to ward off disasters, or even face the threat of a powerful pill-forming person or a third-level demon.

Although the destruction of the summoned soul's phantom will not necessarily lead to the death of the real body, it is very likely that it will suffer serious backlash, no matter how hard it is to improve its cultivation, or that it will retreat instead of making progress.

Even if this special situation is excluded, if the soul is summoned by a special secret method and is tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of miles away from the body, there are still many potential dangers that will inevitably cause damage to the foundation of the practitioner.

Therefore, taking the initiative to apply to serve as an "observer" during the closure of Xingxiu Palace requires a certain spirit of self-sacrifice.

Or maybe they feel that there is no hope of progress and want to use this kind of credit to exchange for something.

Under such circumstances, Yan Zhuang's application to become an observer was naturally approved without any setbacks.

Observers are all in separate areas. For example, Qiao Xin and others hold special tokens and use secret methods to summon them in the Soul Controlling Realm. If they use the same secret method to summon in the Qingxuan Realm, the "observers" summoned are different.

Yanzhuang is of course responsible for the Qingxuan Territory.

With the help of this channel, Yanzhuang can also regularly harvest some information about Cuiyu Lake.

In such a tortuous way, he silently followed the development of Cuiyu Lake.

However, starting a few decades ago, the situation has changed.

It would be difficult for him to regularly obtain information from Qingxuan Territory, especially Jade Lake, through this channel.

And the reason for all this still falls on him.

At that time, it had been nearly a hundred years since he left Cuiyu Lake. Over time, who knows what Cuiyu Lake will look like a hundred years from now.

He was no longer satisfied with circumstantial and superficial understanding. He wanted to have a detailed and comprehensive understanding of the information about Jade Lake.

So, when he was summoned again, he gave the person who summoned him a similar task as he gave Qiao Xin.

After accepting the mission of "Yan Shizun", the person summoned by the order naturally did not dare to disobey and delay at all, and began to visit the Cuiyu Lake honestly, keeping everything in the Cuiyu Lake in mind, and then submitted it to "Cuiyu Lake" through the token.

"Yan Shizun".

Out of caution, Yan Zhuang silenced this person as soon as he got this information.

Because he didn't want any living person to know that he had such unusual concern for Jade Lake.

But what he didn't know was that the mission he issued had directly killed the family behind the summoner and the family that Xingxiu Palace was buried in Qingxuan Domain to serve as the "eyes" and "hands".

Because at that time, the number one power in Cuiyu Lake was the Mo family, and they were pursuing the illusory "Xingxiu Palace inheritance" left by the ancestors of the Yan family.

At this time, someone sneaked into the Jade Lake and peeked everywhere. How could such behavior not fall into the Mo family's sight.

Although the ancestor of the Mo family died in a cowardly manner, it seemed that he was extinguished by the Qingxuan Sect before he could shine.

But he can secretly cultivate the elixir when thousands of horses are silent, so he cannot be an ordinary person.

Not only did he notice this person, he even followed the clues and dug up the hidden family behind this person.

In other respects, the ancestors of the Mo family may not be from the same group as the Qingxuan Sect, but they have the same attitude on how to deal with the remaining forces in the Xingxiu Palace.

After all, he was the monk who directly participated in the destruction of the Yan family, and he was also the monk who benefited the most from the destruction of the Yan family. The entire family prospered along with it. Now that the hidden force has been discovered, he naturally cannot sit idly by.

But he didn't want to do it himself, so after some clever operations, this secret force was exposed to Qingxuan Sect's sight, and then the end came immediately.

The broken jade slips that the Master of the Talisman Array Palace harvested, recording the soul technique of "Retrospective Yuan Guang", were harvested during this operation.

For the ancestor of the Mo family, this hidden force that appeared out of nowhere and came to Jade Lake to peek furtively strengthened his thoughts.

"It seems that this Jade Lake does have a great opportunity and a great secret left behind by the Xingxiu Palace!"

Make big profits.

For Qingxuanzong, although he did not understand the twists and turns behind it, he took the opportunity to pull out a nail.

Small profit but no loss.

For Yanzhuang, it has caused him to lose the channel to steadily harvest information about Jade Lake.

Big loss.

When he saw Qiao Xin, a "fish" who swam from another pond and took the initiative to bite the hook, he couldn't wait to repeat his old trick, wanting to know the latest situation of Cuiyu Lake.

After learning about the earth-shaking changes in Cuiyu Lake in the past ten years, Yanzhuang was completely uneasy.

Not to mention how much impact this huge change will have on his back-up plan.

What worries him even more is that the former Jade Lake was only a second-level spiritual vein, and the upper limit was there. He was not worried about the "Blood Inheritance Spirit Cleansing Secret Technique" being discovered by others.

But now that Cuiyu Lake has become a third-level spiritual land, not only will there be a large number of alchemy monks operating in Cuiyu Lake, but the eyes of Qingxuan Sect will also come frequently.

As time goes by, there may be traces of the Alchemy Monk cultivator who can decipher the "Secret Technique of Blood-Inherited Spirit Cleansing".

If the fruit that he spent his whole life cultivating was picked away by others, he would be so angry that he would immediately vomit blood and die.

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became, how could he still sit still.

"No, I have to get out!"

"I have to get out now!"

He immediately resigned from his position as "observer" and devoted himself to finding a solution.

During that time, he went to the library every day, and his hard work paid off. After months of searching, he finally found a secret method in an ancient book.

This is a secret method called "Blood Soul Escape", which briefly turns the body into blood, and then fuses the soul with the blood. As long as the soul goes out, his whole body will be taken out naturally.

And it just so happens that, having been an observer for more than a hundred years, he may have been neglected in other aspects, but he has rich experience in this area.

"This is the secret method of escape that is most suitable for me. It is almost tailor-made for me... It seems that fate still favors me!"

When he found this secret method, Yan Zhuang almost cried with joy.

Although, this secret escape technique has powerful sequelae, its future foundation and potential will surely be damaged again.

However, to Yan Zhuang, he no longer cares.

Anyway, the road to Yuanying has been completely cut off, and he has firmly determined to take the path of "surrogate infant".
