After making up their mind, Zhang Zhixuan and Qingchan immediately informed Liu Lingjun, then took up the light and flew to Yanlai Peak.
After entering Yanlai Peak, Zhang Zhixuan suddenly felt that things were different and people were different.
Although Yanlai Peak is very close to Lingjing Mountain, Zhang Zhixuan doesn't like to walk around. The last time he went to Yanlai Peak was eight hundred years ago.
That year, the East Pole Locust Rebellion broke out in Heishan, and the five major families in Taicheng County worked together to resist the East Pole Locust army at Yanlai Peak.
The monks who participated in that battle ranged from the Zifu monk Han Wangpeng to the Wu family who were in the Qi training period. Eight hundred years have passed, and now only Zhang Zhixuan survives.
Those companions who fought side by side could not stop the passage of time and turned into a handful of loess. Whether they were Zifu monks or Qi practitioners, they would all be in vain.
Even if you become a soul, if you can't form the Tao Fruit, break through the world and ascend, a lifetime of practice will be of no use.
"Perhaps Qingchan is right. You should not be timid when you encounter an opportunity. You should fight for it decisively. If Liang Taixu had not been trapped in Black Mountain, he would have had a good chance of cultivating to a high level. Now that he has embarked on the path of cultivating immortals, life and death should be ignored.
"
Zhang Zhixuan sighed secretly and put back his scattered thoughts. Seeing every plant and tree in Yanlai Peak, he suddenly gained a little more confidence.
In the past eight hundred years, relying on the east wind of Ziyang Sect's prosperity, the Wu family in Yanlaifeng has also developed very smoothly.
Several major families in Taicheng County have a good relationship, and they are all married to each other.
Following Zhang Zhixuan and Han Yan, they became Taoists one after another. Relying on the big tree of the Zhang family, the development of the five major families has been smooth in the past few hundred years.
In addition to the Zhang family in Tiantai Peak, the Wu family in Yanlai Peak has also used this stock spirit to expand five times in size over the past few hundred years. Now there are more than 2,000 clan members with spiritual roots, and there are more than 40 foundation-building monks.
There are five monks in the mansion, and among them there is a monk from the Wu family who refined the golden elixir and extended his tentacles to the upper levels of the sect.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery, a feeling of loneliness suddenly arose in Zhang Zhixuan's heart.
"Old people always like to reminisce about the past. Calculating my age, I am already over 800 years old. It seems that my mentality is getting old after all."
Zhang Zhixuan suppressed the thoughts in his heart and released his spiritual consciousness to look for Qianji Sanren.
His spiritual consciousness has become extremely powerful, capable of spreading thousands of miles away, surpassing the ninth level of the Nascent Soul.
With the strength of Zhang Zhixuan's spiritual consciousness, it would be possible to search every inch of Yanlai Peak once it was released, but surprisingly, Qianji Sanren was not found.
"Is this person's breath-holding technique really good?"
Zhang Zhixuan was secretly frightened, and he suddenly became eager to win. His consciousness continued to spread out, turning into layers of white misty wind.
Streams of air surged in all directions with Zhang Zhixuan as the center, and suddenly there was an unusually sharp and harsh sound from up and down Yanlai Peak.
A dazzling white light suddenly flashed, and violent winds passed through both sides of the shield, forming a vortex, and the traces of Qianji Sanren immediately appeared.
After Zhang Zhixuan chose to release his spiritual consciousness, he immediately alarmed the Yan Laifeng Wu family.
In an instant, many people were struck by this spiritual consciousness, staggering and falling, and some people with shallow foundations fell into a coma all of a sudden.
Fortunately, Zhang Zhixuan did not mean to hurt anyone, and his spiritual consciousness control was extremely good. When he encountered low-level monks, he almost always stopped at the touch of a button, and he would not really hurt innocent people or hurt the foundation of low-level monks.
The Wu family hung out in the Ziyang Sect and naturally saw the portrait of the patriarch. Zhang Zhixuan did not hide his identity, so many people recognized the identity of the patriarch at a glance.
A ray of light fell quickly, and when he saw Zhang Zhixuan, he immediately fell to the ground.
"Junior Wu Yongde, pays homage to the patriarch."
Wu Yongde is a descendant of Wu Xianlong and has some connection with Zhang Zhixuan.
Although Zhang Zhixuan would take care of the descendants of these disciples, he would not care too much about them.
Once the two parties get along for a long time, feelings will inevitably develop. By then, these people will not be able to keep up with Zhang Zhixuan's spiritual practice, and the separation of secular ties will only increase the sadness.
The higher the cultivation level of a monk, the further away from the mortal world. After reaching Yuanshen, there is almost no contact with low-level monks. In addition to the fact that the energy fluctuations emitted by oneself are too powerful, this is also partly due to this reason.
"Today I will lend you your family's treasure land to welcome a Taoist brother. You don't need to take care of this matter. Just pretend that nothing happened."
Zhang Zhixuan waved his hand to ask this person to leave, and looked at Qianji Sanren with a smile.
"Zhang Daoyou's spiritual consciousness is indeed very good, but his method of attacking with his spiritual consciousness is a bit clumsy, and he almost entirely relies on brute force to win."
In the test just now, Zhang Zhixuan had the upper hand. Qianji Sanren was not polite, he put away his breath-containing skills, and sat in a corner pavilion, grabbing a white-tailed reed fish and tasting it carefully, feeling comfortable and calm
Enjoy the beautiful scenery of Yanlai Peak.
Seeing that Zhang Zhixuan did not answer, Qianji Sanren nodded and said: "It seems that Fellow Daoist Zhang has made a decision."
"Brother Daoist's guess is good. When will Fellow Daoist Wang prepare to take action?"
"Nine top Nascent Souls are needed to open the Immortal Mansion. Counting Daoyou Zhang and his wife, there are still two short. I am going to return to Zhongchizhou to explore Lei Powang's tone first."
Lei Powan comes from the Five Thunder Sect and is also a famous top Nascent Soul.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Five Thunder Sect was also a very powerful Yuan Shen Taoism, but it has gone downhill in the past tens of thousands of years, and there has never been a real Yuan Shen in charge. The strength of this sect is similar to that of Yanghuo Palace, with fourteen Yuan Shen in it.
Ying Zhenren, Lei Powan is the great elder of this sect, and has developed several thunder-attribute magical powers. The most important thing is that this person, like Liang Jingchong, must have a spiritual weapon to protect him.
"Besides Lei Powang, who else is Wang Daoyou planning to invite?"
Qianji Sanren said: "This person has had an acquaintance with Fellow Daoist Zhang, and he is also from Demon Refining City. This person is Xiao Yunhe, the ancestor of the Xiao family, and like Mrs. Zhang, he is a water spirit root monk. In fact, I had talked with Fellow Daoist Xiao in the early years.
As long as Daoyou Zhang and his wife are willing to join, Fellow Daoist Xiao is willing to act together. If the two fellow Daoists do not participate, Fellow Daoist Xiao has little confidence. It seems that Patriarch Xiao admires the magical powers of Daoyou Zhang and his wife."
The Xiao family is a vassal of the Wuwei Sect, a long-established family, and has a deep relationship with the Wuwei Sect.
Ancestor Taili of the Wuwei Sect was full of praise for Zhang Zhixuan and his wife. Xiao Yunhe must have heard about this.
In addition, Xiao Yunhe once fought against the demon cultivator Gao Zongwang, and he was almost defeated in that battle. Gao Zongwang almost destroyed his body. However, Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan defeated Gao Zongwang on Qilin Island. The result of this battle made Xiao Yunhe admire them very much.
Supernatural powers.
Moreover, Zhang Zhixuan and his wife have settled in Demon Refining City for decades, and Xiao Yunhe also knows their character and knows that Zhang Zhixuan is not a sinister and cunning person, and his safety is guaranteed when working with such a person with an upright personality.
The ancestors of the Xiao family only had one Yuan Shen monk, but unfortunately he died in the battle to suppress the demon in ancient times. Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the heritage left by the Yuan Shen ancestor to them has probably been exhausted long ago.
According to the rumors Zhang Zhixuan heard in Demon Refining City, the ancestors of the Xiao family originally passed down a spiritual weapon, but unfortunately it disappeared completely with an elder of the Xiao family six thousand years ago.
Although Xiao Yunhe is a Tianlinggen cultivator with more powerful magic than ordinary Nascent Souls, but there is no Nascent Soul treasure, relatively speaking, among the nine top Nascent Souls, she and Duan Hongling, the two female cultivators, are the two with the weakest combat power.
Zhang Zhixuan glanced at Qianji Sanren and felt that his calculations were too sophisticated. None of the eight top-level Nascent Souls invited were from the Yuanshen Sect, and several of them were obviously not as powerful as Qianji Sanren. This plan was probably for competition.
He has the right to speak, so as not to turn against the guest and cause his words to be unheard.
The reason why this person went through so much trouble to invite Zhang Zhixuan and his wife was probably because he needed Qing Chan's final say.
"If Lei Powang is unwilling to participate, does Wang Daoyou have any alternatives?"
"It would be best if Lei Powan is willing to participate. If he is not willing, he can only recruit one of my nephews to join in. However, his cultivation level is relatively low, only the eighth level of Nascent Soul."
After hearing this, Zhang Zhixuan suddenly realized: "Fellow Taoist Wang actually has a teacher?"
Qianji Sanren laughed and said, "Why would you ask Daoist friend Zhang knowingly? How could Mrs. Zhang not recognize the escape method I used? I don't want to deceive my companions. Pindao is indeed from the Xiaoyao Sect."
"Fellow Daoist Wang's senior brother Zhang Xianyun is also a top-level Nascent Soul. Why are you looking far away from the near and not allowing this person to participate in the operation?"
Qianji Sanren shook his head and smiled bitterly: "More than a hundred years ago, several of my fellow disciples and I prepared to open the Immortal Mansion. Unfortunately, soon after entering the Sea of Forgetfulness, we alerted the Demon Dao masters. Although we were lucky enough to escape from the hands of the Demon Dao Yuanshen, our senior brothers were also injured.
At the end of the day, his lifespan was already short, and now it is even worse. He passed away more than ten years ago. If Senior Brother Zhang is still here, I would be embarrassed to invite Mrs. Zhang."
"Before going to Wangyouhai, our husband and wife are planning to go to Zhongchizhou to look for Yang Xuanzhen. How can we contact him then?"
"It will take another thirteen years to open the Immortal Mansion. After thirteen years, we will go directly to Bihaiyuan to join us."
Bihaiyuan is located in the far west of Zhongchizhou. After passing Bihaiyuan, you will enter the Wangyouhai Demonic Cultivation Base Camp.
Zhang Zhixuan chatted with Qianji Sanren for a while. After eating the white-tailed reed fish, the person said a few polite words and quickly left Yan Laifeng.
In less than a moment, Qianji Sanren had disappeared.
Zhang Zhixuan declined the Wu family's attempts to stay and immediately returned to Lingjing Mountain. After meeting Liu Lingjun, he teleported to Qingli Sea that night. Then he entered Xiyao Prefecture through the Qingli Sea teleportation array, and then teleported from Xi Yao Prefecture to Zhongchi Prefecture.
After defeating Wu Daozhen, the two of them have become the most popular Yuanying in the Yuanyang world.
After the last battle in Moyun Cave, the story spread among the sects of Yuanyang Realm following the story told by the monks from Nanya Prefecture.
Although the Patriarch of Ten Thousand Tribulations only lost one incarnation, after slaying the Demon Dao Yuanshen, the reputation of the nine Nascent Souls who participated in the battle in Nanya Prefecture spread almost throughout the Qingli Sea and every sect in Xiyao Prefecture. They played a key role.
Qingchan is even known as the No. 1 Nascent Soul Master in the Yuanyang Realm.
With such a big name, the Baiyun Sect and Zixiao Sect, who controlled the teleportation array, naturally did not dare to neglect and did not care about losing money. They activated the teleportation array almost immediately.
The only people who took the teleportation array were about a dozen people who were passing by. They saved themselves from waiting in line for many years. They were considered to be in the favor of Zhang Zhixuan and his wife. They saved several years of practice.
The most powerful Nascent Souls in the world of immortality have some privileges in various aspects. The sect that controls the teleportation array would rather pay some spiritual stones in exchange for opening a convenient door for them.
If these two sects were not so capable, they would not have been able to control the cross-continental teleportation array.
After all, the strength of the two sects is not strong. The Baiyun Sect only has seven Nascent Soul cultivators, and the Zixiao Sect only has ten members.
Instead of wasting time queuing up and waiting for the teleportation array to be opened, the three of them spent a year on the road before arriving near Demon Refining City.
Zhang Zhixuan had violated the rules of the Demon Refining City, so he would naturally not enter the Demon Refining City, lest the Wuwei Sect would look bad and offend this giant sect.
Qingchan was his wife and was too embarrassed to enter the city. The one who entered the Demon Refining City was Liu Lingjun.
The three of them have no friendship with the monks of the Demon-Conquering Sect. Although Zhang Zhixuan suspects that there are high-level monks within the Demon-Conquering Sect to help Yang Xuanzhen, there are Yuanshen monks in this sect, and the Ziyang Sect will not offend the senior leaders of this sect easily.
After going to Huaishanfang, Zhang Zhixuan decided to be polite first and then go to war. He asked his client to go to the Demon Subduing Sect first to find out the news.
The Ziyang Sect has been operating in Demon Refining City for more than a hundred years, so it has naturally developed some friendship with Nascent Soul here. The person best suited to handle this matter is Wenxian Lou Jin Yan, the real person.
In the past 100 years or so, Ziyang Sect and Master Jin Yan have cooperated very happily.
Not only did Zhang Zhixuan be very kind to him, but the two parties could also make a lot of profits by operating Wenxian Tower together.
Although spiritual stones and the like are no longer useful to Jin Yan, with the good channel of Wenxian Tower, you can occasionally harvest some sixth-level spiritual objects.
The three guest ministers at Wenxian Tower are all casual cultivators and do not have a territory to operate. This property is very important to them. They all feel some gratitude to Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan.
After entering Demon Refining City, Liu Lingjun arrived by chance, as Jin Yanren did not enter seclusion.
Master Jin Yan has already passed through a calamity and reached the seventh level of Yuanying. Although his longevity is about a thousand years, he has been stuck at the seventh level of Yuanying for four hundred years and his energy has been exhausted. According to his current progress,
I'm afraid there's no hope of breaking through the soul bottleneck.
In recent years, Master Jin Yan has completely given up the idea of breaking through the Yuan Shen. He spends most of his time refining magic weapons, preparing to exchange some high-level spiritual objects for his son Chu Lifang.
It's a pity that Chu Linfang is also a Dharmakaya Yuanying. Unless he has great luck, it is almost impossible to refine the Yuanshen. Even if he cultivates the Lotus Dharmakaya, the progress of cultivation is very slow, and the speed of refining spiritual energy is not as fast as
If cultivators of the Five Spiritual Roots and Lotus Dharmakaya want to go further, they will consume far more resources than ordinary Nascent Souls.
Seeing the token left by Zhang Zhixuan, Jin Yan did not refuse, but he did not have full confidence.
"The Demon-Conquering Sect now has the ancestor of the Yuanshen in charge. This sect's techniques are very overbearing. The monks who can practice the Demon-Conquering Techniques are all rebellious and unruly people. I don't have much in common with his Yuanying monks.
Friendship, I’m afraid there may not be any certainty that this sect’s Yuanying can be explained.”
"Fellow Taoist Jin Yan has a wide circle of friends. I only need fellow Taoist to clarify this matter. You don't need to worry about the rest."
