Although the Yan family is the number one cultivating immortal family in the Yue Kingdom, Linzhou, where it is based, is very mediocre among the thirteen states in the Yue Kingdom.
Not only are the prefectures and counties average in area, but their population is neither high nor low, which is not surprising.
But only the monks knew that Yanling Castle, the fundamental center of the Yan family, is located in Yanliang Mountain outside Qingliang City.
When he was a hundred miles away from Yanliang Mountain, Xie Duanyang had already slowed down his escape speed, flying slowly at the speed of an ordinary monk in the early stages of foundation building, and at the same time released his spiritual consciousness.
Without much effort, he easily found two men wearing brown clothes of the Yan family at the pick-up location mentioned in the invitation letter.
They are not very old, only around thirty, but they all have the cultivation level of the early stage of foundation building.
The faces and facial features of the two people are quite similar, and it is obvious from the moment they meet that they are closely related by blood.
These monks represent the face of the Yan family, so naturally they will not find anyone who is too bad to be responsible.
But the real genius in the family would not do such a thing.
From this point alone, we can roughly measure the strength of the Yan family.
It is indeed worthy of being the number one force among the seven sects of Yue Kingdom.
"It turns out that he is Junior Brother Xie from the Divine Weapon Sect. Elder Yan's weapon refining skills are astonishing.
Yan Zhe and his younger brother Yan Sheng have heard it countless times.
Junior Brother Su Wen Xie has amazing talent in weapon refining, and once defeated him in the Thousand Weapons Ceremony..."
After verifying the authenticity of the invitation, the older monk greeted Xie Duanyang with a smile.
I don’t look down upon Yan Kuangge at all because he is not a pill-forming monk.
And it sounds like we have already collected some information about Xie Duanyang, so we don’t know anything about it.
Of course, considering that the original intention of the Yan family's trip was to find suitable Taoist companions for the geniuses in the family, this move is perfectly normal.
"Don't dare, don't dare, Xie just heard about the name of 'Qiankun Pagoda', so he specifically asked Master for instructions.
Xie's cultivation level is only at the early stage, so he doesn't dare to think about taking this treasure. He will be satisfied if he can take a few more glances."
His words are half true and half false, and he has indeed been famous for the "Qiankun Tower" for a long time.
This treasure is also very famous in Tiannan. It does not come from Yue, Yuanwu and other countries, but is unique to Baiqiaoyuan of Yunmeng Mountain in Xiguo.
This is the only one, no other branches.
As the name suggests, Baiqiaoyuan has special expertise in various arts of cultivation.
In terms of weapon refining, Baiqiaoyuan and the Shenbing Sect are quite close, and they are considered the best in Tiannan.
But in terms of making talismans, setting up formations, spiritual planting and other items, it is slightly exceeded.
And in Baiqiaoyuan, there are very few people who can use the "Qiankun Tower" as their natal magic weapon.
I don’t know where the Yan family got this talisman.
After laughing, Xie Duanyang asked again smoothly.
"I don't know how many fellow Taoists from other sects have come.
It’s funny to say that Xie has been in the sect all year round and really doesn’t know many people..."
Yan Zhe was not surprised by this. Xie Duanyang was not very old, but he was able to practice and did not waste time refining weapons. He was obviously the kind of ascetic cultivator who had no intention of socializing.
This is also more relevant to the information they collected.
"There is still more than a month until the day of the Treasure Hunting Conference, and not many comrades have come yet.
But fellow Daoist Xie, don’t be disappointed..."
As Yan Zhe spoke, he released a double-headed swan, a special spiritual pet of the Yan family, and rode on it with his younger brother, leading the way.
There are twists and turns on the ground, and it may take two to three hundred miles, and there may not be a road.
However, within a few dozen miles in the air, the three of them had already reached their destination.
Then Yan Zhe took out the face token, poured his magic power into it, and released a flicker of yellow brilliance.
The air rippled, and five colors of light emerged.
After the light dissipated, a majestic castle appeared among the originally empty mountain ridges.
"This protective formation is not weak."
Withdrawing his consciousness, Xie Duanyang felt a little chilled in his heart and thought to himself.
While on the road, Xie Duanyang also tried to get familiar with the array equipment in his hands.
In addition, I have personally witnessed its effectiveness twice, so I know its power very well.
But the power of the Yan family's great formation is still far greater than the improved "Inverted Five Elements Formation" in their hands.
It’s not that the mystery of this formation is still there, it’s just that the formation disk and formation flags are the result of condensation and simplification of the formation.
Although it is much more convenient, its power will also be reduced accordingly.
In addition, it is only Xie Duanyang, the master, who promotes and presides over it, which cannot be compared with the Yan family's countless people who are in charge of the formation.
"That's Fangshi, this is Tianheju, our Yan family's special product is Snow Bell Tea. Since Fellow Daoist Xie is here, you must try it.
That is a competition ground. In the past two days, fellow Taoists from other sects have competed with others in the field..."
Yan Zhe and the others did not stay long. After introducing Xie Duanyang to the more open places in the fort one by one, they returned to their original positions to wait for other visitors.
In fact, as a rule, only one of the two people will be responsible for reception, and one person will remain to entertain the guests.
But because Xie Duanyang is the only disciple of Yan Kuangge, he must inherit his legacy, so the treatment he receives is slightly improved accordingly.
Watching the two people disappear, Xie Duanyang did not rush to the Yingbin Building where the Yan family entertained guests, but followed the map and jade slip given by Yan Zhe.
Take a leisurely stroll inside Yanling Castle.
Although he knew that Mo Caihuan's wife and daughter were here and were not living a happy life, he had no intention of taking action.
This kind of "hero saving beauty" thing should be left to Junior Brother Han.
Again, I didn’t take action on Zhang Tie’s behalf and it was considered a mercy to wipe out the other party’s family.
But...
Thinking of Zhang Tie, Xie Duanyang's heart couldn't help but move.
After all, I relied on the other person's body to have this opportunity, which can be regarded as a huge debt of gratitude.
When he left the Qixuan Sect, he had not cultivated enough and his future was unclear.
Just a few words to the sect leader named Wang to take care of the other party's family, in Xie Duanyang's opinion, is not enough to repay.
If you have the chance, you should still take the time to go back and settle your mortal relationship.
Yanling Castle is not small, with a population of hundreds of thousands, but to the foundation-building monks, it is nothing.
In just half a day, Xie Duanyang went through it all.
It cannot be said that there is no gain at all, but it is just a few gadgets that were spent on spiritual stones, which is not worth mentioning.
Still not going back, Xie Duanyang went outside to find a common restaurant and ate some random dishes.
After waiting for a while, he straightened his clothes and went straight to the core of Yanling Castle.
"Fellow Taoist, do you want to meet my Dan family ancestor?"
Hearing Xie Duanyang's intention, the two Yan family members guarding the gate couldn't help but be stunned.
Not to mention outsiders, even if they are members of the Yan family, it is not easy for them to meet the real person in the family, Jiedan.
After all, in the entire Yan family, apart from the ancestors of the Yan family, there are only two alchemy monks in total.
But they also knew that Xie Duanyang was a distinguished guest of the Yan family and had a different background, so it was difficult to reject him directly.
