NOVPUBSome people couldn’t help but show a look of disappointment.
"It’s a pity. I heard that this Deputy Sect Master is extremely strong in magical combat. I wanted to witness it but didn’t expect an incarnation to come."
"Indeed, I had intended to thank this Taoist Friend Wang for previously saving a disciple of our Longevity Sect, but sadly, fate is sparing."
Heaven and Earth Decline, the pattern of the Little Cang World would inevitably change.
Although the Three Sects and One Clan are close to each other, they are still quite unfamiliar with Wang Ba.
Wang Ba, this Deputy Sect Master, is said to be unmatched in magical combat, and even a third-level Evil God is no match for him. Naturally, everyone wanted to connect and ensure the close relationship of the Three Sects and One Clan would last.
The succession ceremony was completed as smoothly as anticipated, without a ripple.
After the ceremony.
The higher-ups of the Wanxiang Sect and those of the other two sects gathered at the Chunyang Palace and discussed matters for three full days and nights before finally dispersing.
Watching the backs of the decision-makers from Youxian Temple and Longevity Sect, as well as those from the Qin Family, departing.
Qu Shentong couldn’t help but sigh deeply,
"After settling the Fenglin Continent, Longevity Sect and Youxian Temple plan to close their doors to preserve their Spiritual Lineage from falling… Where should we go from here?"
Beside him, Ji Ying shook his head slightly and sighed lightly:
"Heaven and Earth’s trends are hard to resist, being able to preserve the lineage of the sect is already rare; the Sect Master need not think too much."
Qu Shentong showed reluctance and clenched his fist:
"Although you say so, it’s ultimately hard to accept."
Which cultivator of the Wanxiang Sect wasn’t aiming to achieve Immortal Ascension from a tender age?
Yet now, with the current restrictions of Heaven and Earth, this goal has turned into an unreachable fantasy.
And for someone like Ji Ying who had already achieved Immortal Ascension, there was likewise a full sense of reluctance.
If everything had gone smoothly, and they had reached the Cloud Sky Realm, they should have had even higher possibilities…
He stroked his beard and said,
"The only good news is that the sea level around the Fenglin Continent has not risen in the past few days. Maybe the Membrane Eye that caused the great flood has fortuitously healed itself."
"Alas, let’s hope so."
Qu Shentong sighed.
Among them. The Ice Daoist watched this scene with an exceptionally calm face.
As an incarnation, he was not affected by these emotions.
After dispersing, he flew straight to the Wanfa Peak.
However, in front of Wanfa Peak, he saw a familiar figure.
"Martial Uncle Qi?"
Compared to when he saw him last at the Shou Peak, Qi Yan now had a glow in his eyes that seemed driven by some purpose.
Upon seeing the Ice Daoist, he couldn’t help but ask:
"What your original body said before, was it true?"
Although Qi Yan spoke vaguely, the Ice Daoist understood, nodded, and gestured towards the direction of the Pearl Dungeon,
"Martial Uncle, please enter."
Qi Yan didn’t bother with courtesy and flew in immediately.
But just as he entered, he was instantly stunned by the sight inside the dungeon.
"This... so many Class IV Spirit Chickens!"
"Eh? Is this Spirit Beast, could it be a Vermilion Bird?"
Qi Yan incredulously looked at the fire-red little bird that poked its head out from the Fire Paulownia Tree and curiously peered around.
The Ice Daoist walked over slowly, nodded slightly, and said calmly:
"Martial Uncle is correct, it indeed contains Vermilion Bird Bloodline."
Surprise and interest surged openly in Qi Yan’s eyes.
As a Beast Control cultivator, encountering a Spirit Beast he had never seen before was indeed an immense pleasure.
It was somewhat like an instinct.
But he quickly gathered his wits, and looked seriously at the Ice Daoist:
"To build a Taoist Field that accommodates Immortal Ascension cultivators, do we truly need these Spirit Beasts?"
The Ice Daoist didn’t hesitate:
"Yes."
Qi Yan furrowed his brows:
"But what use are these Spirit Beasts?"
The Ice Daoist calmly stated:
"Dao Secret."
"Enough Dao Secrets can gather to form a Dao Domain, and a Dao Domain is the most important thing in constituting a Taoist Field."
As the head of a Peak, Qi Yan was naturally not incompetent, and immediately understood the Ice Daoist’s meaning, but still frowned:
"Are you saying to extract the Dao Secrets from these Spirit Beasts’ bodies?"
He almost instantly rejected Ice Daoist’s claim:
"This is impossible, not to mention whether the Dao Secret can be extracted, even if it can, normal spirit beasts, other than divine beasts, simply cannot contain Dao Secrets. Their way of ascension is completely different from that of cultivators, not reliant on Dao Secrets."
"I am very clear on this."
What surprised Qi Yan was that Ice Daoist spoke with a calmness that brooked no argument:
"This is exactly why I asked you, Martial Uncle, to come here."
"How to cultivate a Class IV spirit beast containing Dao Secrets… as long as this issue is resolved, everything else would have hope."
Qi Yan stared blankly at Ice Daoist, on him, he seemed to see a kind of confidence he couldn’t understand.
After a long while, he slowly nodded:
"I understand… I’ll try." 𝚗ov𝚙𝚞𝚋.c𝚘m
He then directly entered into the spirit beast breeding grounds within the Pearl Dungeon, and with the use of Bloodline Identification Skill, he began to meticulously choose.
Looking at Qi Yan’s serious demeanor,
Ice Daoist rarely sighed quietly.
"Martial Uncle, do not blame me, if not so, it would be hard to stop your idea of Crossing Tribulation."
Cultivating a Class IV spirit beast containing Dao Secrets, this path might be truly a dead end.
However, to sit idly by and watch Qi Yan perish during his tribulation was too much to bear.
In desperation, this was the only solution that came to mind.
If successful, it would be a great opportunity; he could use the "Skill of Dao Refining" bestowed by Elder Xun to truly gather a Taoist Field.
If it fails, at least it would keep Qi Yan occupied, away from thinking about Crossing Tribulation.
"Have we arrived at Huangji Continent?"
Wang Ba opened his eyes and scanned the surroundings,
only to find the divine temple had landed on the edge of a cliff by the sea.
One after another, massive divine temples occupied the area, with numerous Incense Fire Dao cultivators urging mortals, shuttling through the temples.
In the distant sky.
A massive pool, adorned with a golden dragon swimming on its surface, hovered above the entire Huangji Continent.
It caught his attention.
"What exactly is this?"
Wang Ba was somewhat curious in his heart.
He could vaguely sense the unusual nature of this pool.
Soon, he also faintly felt another anomaly,
feeling slightly astonished:
"Strange, the richness of spiritual energy in this continent, why does it feel almost up to par with Jin?"
"Is it just here, or is it like this across the entire Huangji Continent?"
Noticing the nearby Incense Fire Dao cultivators setting out in all directions on missions,
His thoughts shifted and his consciousness quickly detached from the divine statue and attached to a Class III Yin God Lineage Incense Fire Dao cultivator’s body, subsequently leaving the place filled with temples along with this cultivator and others.
After flying for a while, they soon encountered a city with an architectural style starkly different from Fenglin Continent.
The people inside the city seemed to notice the arrival of the Incense Fire Dao cultivators, and an old man in a scholarly robe slowly walked out from the city gate, apparently no different from a mortal.
However, what astonished Wang Ba was that this scholarly-robed old man, looking up at the sky full of Incense Fire Dao cultivators, showed no signs of panic, suddenly opened his mouth and roared loudly:
"Confucius never talked about force and chaos of gods and spirits!"
This roar was like thunder exploding!
The consciousness of Wang Ba, residing in this Incense Fire Dao cultivator, couldn’t help but tremble instantly, feeling dizzy and almost shattered.
It was as if this roar contained supreme majesty.
In his astonished gaze,
A surge of Haoran Qi suddenly rose from this thin body, piercing straight into the sky!
Incense Fire Dao cultivators in the sky were struck by this Haoran Qi, suddenly feeling as if they were intoxicated, one by one, they fell from mid-air.
Only a few body refinement Incense Fire Dao cultivators seemed not to be greatly affected.
Yet, their gaze towards the old man was also filled with fear:
"Quick! There is a great scholar from Qian here! We must kill him quickly! Otherwise, most of us will be suppressed by him!"
A few of the Incense Fire Dao body refinement cultivators lunged towards the old man.
However, the next moment, on the city battlements, numerous huge crossbows and exaggerated arrows were set up, targeting the Incense Fire Dao cultivators, firing at them!
These arrows, attached with special talismans, instantly shot down the arriving Incense Fire Dao cultivators one by one.
They seemingly looked like mere mortal objects, yet they suppressed the Incense Fire Dao cultivators with unimaginable force.
At this moment, the consciousness of Wang Ba residing in the Incense Fire Dao cultivator, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but feel shock and elation:
"What exactly was that old scholar using just now?"
"Was it Divine Pattern Rites? Or something else?"
