I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 26 Grandmaster's Secret Weapon
"Hasn't the people from Tiance Palace arrived yet?" Prince Qing stood on a high place, gazing down at the foot of the mountain.

Tiance Mansion is an institution in the Daqian Dynasty that is specifically responsible for handling the affairs of the martial arts sects. In theory, the Beiquan Mountain incident should be received and handled by them.

“I have sent a message to urge them, but the Palace Master, Grandmaster Zhou, has gone to Hexi Road. Seven of the Twelve Sky Constables in the Palace are stationed in Kyoto, but four of them have gone with them to deal with the Red Dragon Sect’s affairs.

Shangguan Yundun, who was ranked ninth on the blacklist, was executed recently. The remnants of the Tiancan Sect and many people on the blacklist secretly gathered in Kyoto and almost succeeded in a prison break the night before.

The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice was found to be in collusion with the Demon Xuan Sect and secretly provided convenience for the cause. When he was tracked down, he had already escaped and disappeared without a trace.

The princess's wedding is imminent, and His Majesty is furious. He orders the arrest of the suspect within three days and the purging of the capital. Lord Wu, who was originally going to come, has to postpone his trip. "Butler Qin Hu said helplessly.

Prince Qing frowned and said, "Can't we just send one person over? It's not enough to just send the Imperial Guards to deal with the martial arts sects."

"We have arranged for Lord Li from the Demon Suppression Division to come over, but the earliest he can do so is tomorrow afternoon."

Prince Qing was helpless as there were too few grandmasters in the imperial court, and the grandmasters were just grandmasters, and whether or not to take action depended entirely on their mind. The imperial court's deterrent power was greatly reduced, and all kinds of monsters and demons jumped out one after another, constantly testing the court's bottom line.

"Let's go back to the courtyard. The Qingluan Sect is coming soon, and we have to receive one or two of them."

"I can handle this matter myself. How can a mere elder of a sect, such as the prince, ..."

Prince Qing raised his hand to stop the butler from speaking: "It would be good to meet them. The seal of the Demon Realm still needs the help of these people in the martial arts world."

……

"Is it really about the seal of the Demon Realm?" Gu Yuanqing murmured softly. He knew very little about this aspect. Since there was nothing to do in the mountains, he naturally wanted to find out a little. He turned his gaze to the Qingluan Gate.

A moment later, the women reached the top of the mountain.

"This is Beiquan Mountain. I heard it's a forbidden area. I don't think it's that great. The scenery is not as good as that in Qingluanmen Mountain." A girl in a green dress looked around and said.

"Shan Ruotong, be careful with your words!" Elder Guo turned around and scolded with a cold face.

The girl in the green dress stuck out her tongue and muttered, "That's right."

A woman nearby lowered her voice and said with a smile: "Junior Sister Shan, how can the headquarters of a destroyed sect be compared with our Qingluan Sect?"

The girl in the green dress nodded in agreement and said, "Senior Sister Ji, what you said is right."

Qin Hu, the butler of the palace, had already arrived in front of the archway at the top of the mountain. He smiled and bowed, "Elder Guo, Elder Qi, fairies from the Qingluan Sect, please come this way. A courtyard has been prepared for you on the mountain. After you put down your luggage and take a rest, the prince will prepare a banquet for you to welcome you."

The girl in the green skirt came close to Elder Guo and whispered, "Master, you are so honored that the military god of the Daqian Dynasty, Prince Qing, wants to receive you in person."

Elder Guo glared at his disciple fiercely and bowed in return: "Thank you General Wang Qin for waiting."

"I am no longer a general. I am just an ordinary steward beside the prince." Qin Hu smiled and stepped aside, extending his hand to invite him.

Under the guidance of Qin Hu, they arrived at a courtyard. There was a sign of Qingluan Gate next to the gate.

The yard is not small and can easily accommodate more than a dozen people. When the women from the Qingluan Sect were assigned to their rooms, servants brought them hot water to wash away the dust.

Afterwards, the two elders of Qingluan Sect arrived at the Prince Qing Courtyard under the guidance of Qin Hu.

Prince Qing was waiting at the entrance of the lobby. After a brief greeting, he took a seat inside the hall.

"This time, Qingluan Sect allowed the two elders to come. This prince is very grateful." "Your Highness is too polite. The seal of the Demon Realm is of great importance. The Sect Master wanted to come in person, but the Sect has many affairs to attend to, so he really couldn't spare the time. He could only let the two of us bring the sect's master's secret weapons to come."

Prince Qing smiled and said, "Master Zhao cares about the people. He is a role model of the sect's righteous path. Both elders are powerful Zhenwu masters. As long as we have the secret weapon, there should be no problem."

The two elders looked at each other, and Elder Guo asked again, "This is our sect's responsibility, but the court has sent a letter to allow our disciples to use the magic array to draw in the magic energy to temper the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Demons. Your Majesty, may I ask, is this still counted?"

"The court will keep its promise. The two elders can rest assured. We will just wait for Xuantian Sect to come and set up the Heaven Repairing Formation. We will use the Grandmaster's secret weapon to transform the energy of heaven and earth to repair the seal. Then, the disciples of your sect will be able to enter and temper the Heavenly Gang."

……

"Secret weapons? That means all the sects that came here once had masters."

Gu Yuanqing's sight fell on the soft sword wrapped around Elder Guo's waist. The aura of this soft sword was completely different from that of ordinary weapons. He seemed to be able to vaguely sense an aura similar to that of living beings.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is the Qingluan Sect's Grandmaster's secret weapon."

Rumor has it that when the master's life came to an end and his Dao fetus completely disintegrated, he stripped out the secret treasures of Zhenwu and sealed them in an object that he had been in contact with day and night and was contaminated with his own aura.

This artifact possesses some of the power of a master, and can transform all kinds of complex auras between heaven and earth into pure vital energy. However, the master's secret weapon can only be activated by the same sect's mental method.

"Perhaps this is the reason why the court invited these sects. Repairing the seal requires the vitality of heaven and earth. Either the master can do it, or we have to use these master's secret weapons."

"I wonder what the difference is between the secret sword in the Beiquan Sword Sect's secret room and the Grandmaster's secret weapon?"

After Gu Yuanqing got what he wanted to know, he was no longer obsessed with monitoring the front mountain and focused his attention on his own cultivation.

He sank into the Lingshan Trial and began to spar with others once again.

After last night's spiritual transformation, he found that his spiritual perception was sharper during the battle and he was now truly capable of fighting against the ninth level of Zhenwu.

Although he still had more defeats than wins, Gu Yuanqing believed that as long as some time passed, he would be able to win. In the next step, he would be able to face the master directly!
Gradually more and more people came to Beiquan Mountain, and by the second day, Beiquan Mountain seemed to have regained its bustle of the previous few days.

The Qingluan Sect, the Lingyuan Sword Sect, the Cangming Valley, the Wushuang Sect, the Feiyu Pavilion, and the Xuantian Sect all arrived at the Beiquan Mountain.

Li Beiyan, the commander of the Demon Suppression Division, finally arrived and took over the responsibility of negotiating with the sect. Prince Qing finally retreated to the second line and no longer managed affairs, only attending on important occasions.

On the third day, all the people from these sects went down the mountain. Gu Yuanqing could not "see" the scene at the foot of the mountain, but he guessed that they were going to deal with the matter of the broken seal.

Gu Yuanqing spent most of his time practicing, but when he was free, he would still look at the mountains and the front yard, and learned a lot about the martial arts world from these sects.

In addition, when these people were practicing, he couldn't help but take a peek.

You should know that most of the disciples who came along this time were elite disciples from these sects. The skills they practiced and carried with them were all top-notch skills from the sect. Although they might not be as good as Gu Yuanqing's own practice methods, they allowed him to expand his horizons in the way of practice and gave him new ideas for the derivation of subsequent skills.

These gains were beyond his expectations. Looking at the disciples of the sect in the front mountain, it was as if he was looking at a group of experience treasures.

Everything that happened in the front mountain had nothing to do with him. Occasionally, if someone came to the back mountain, they would be stopped by the imperial guards.

Until the sixth day, two young men from the Jinyi Hua Mansion stood in front of his courtyard in the front mountain.

The tall young man on the left pointed at the courtyard and asked, "Who lives in this courtyard?"
