Chronicles of Celestial Origins

In Liuyun Sect, in front of the light curtain, a ray of light shot down, and the person who came was none other than Tang Ning.

In the majestic cave, Du Yuanhai, the leader of Liuyun Sect, frowned: "He's here again?"

"Yes, we are waiting outside the mountain gate."

"Go quickly and invite Junior Brother Xu and Junior Brother Zhang."

"Yes." The man responded and left, and soon, Xu Chang and Zhang Yang came to the house one after another.

"Headmaster, I heard that Tang Ning is here again?" Zhang Yang said with a frown as soon as he entered the room.

"Yes! I was worried that he was trying to blackmail me again, so I quickly invited two junior brothers to discuss it."

"Hmph! This Tangning has come to seek benefits time and time again, treating this sect as their storehouse. Headmaster, no matter what request he makes, we must not give in this time, otherwise this kind of thing will happen endlessly."

"Junior Brother Xu, what do you mean?" Du Yuanhai looked at Xuchang.

"Over the years, we have shown full sincerity by first paying part of the taxes and then allocating the best trade routes to them. We can no longer let them take what they want, and we must stop them from thinking this way."

"That's what I mean, then the three of us will go meet him! He is already outside the mountain gate." After Du Yuanhai said that, the three of us stood up and headed outside.

Not long after Tang Ning waited, a corner of the light curtain melted away, and several figures came out from inside. The leader was Du Yuanhai, the headmaster of the Liuyun Sect.

"Ah! I haven't seen you Taoist friend Tang for several years, and my cultivation has improved again. It's really gratifying." Du Yuanhai's expression of surprise flashed across his face, and he turned to smile and salute.

"It's just a fluke. To be honest, Master Du, I came here to ask for something important."

Hearing this, the two men behind him couldn't help but look at each other. Du Yuanhai smiled and said, "Please come in quickly."

The group entered the inner room and came to the main hall, where the guests and hosts sat down.

"I don't know what happened to fellow Taoist Tang, but our sect will do our best to do what we can."

"That's right, I want to refine a magic weapon here, but I still lack a few cultivation materials. I have searched many places, but I can't find it. I think your sect has a great cause and rich heritage, and maybe it exists, so I took the liberty to come here to disturb you. "

After hearing what he said, Du Yuanhai felt relieved: "Oh? I don't know what Taoist friend Tang is missing. Please forgive me for being frank. Compared with the great family business, our sect is undoubtedly a bright grass compared to a bright moon. If Lian Guizong is even more expensive, If the sect doesn’t have it, it’s probably impossible for this sect to find it.”

Tangning took out a piece of paper and handed it to him and said, "These are not really rare items, they are just rare to see in shops. If I apply for redemption from this sect, this process will cost at least a dozen times." It can only be obtained in 2018, so I would like to come to Guizong to take a look. I would be very grateful if you can help me. The price will never be lower than the market price. "

Du Yuanhai took the note and glanced at it, handed it to Zhang Yang and said: "I remember that our sect seems to have a piece of the essence of the Taiyuan Stone. Junior Brother Zhang, take a look. If there is any, get a piece for Fellow Taoist Tang."

"If your sect has this thing, I am willing to pay 10 million spiritual stones."

"Fellow Taoist Tang, wait a moment, I'll go look for it." Zhang Yang got up and left.

"Fellow Taoist Tang, I didn't expect that after not seeing you for several years, you have already broken through to the late stage of divine transformation. I think this small Xuantang City will soon be unable to keep you."

"Tang's breakthrough this time is purely a fluke. I dare not say anything else. It is already good to be able to earn one-third of an acre in Xuantang City."

"Fellow Taoist Tang, there is something I know whether I should ask."

"Teacher Du, it doesn't matter what you say."

"In the former, a space crack appeared in Xuantang City. Many fellow Taoists in this city went inside to find out. It was rumored that there were treasures in the secret realm. Many fellow Taoists even fought against the snake people in the secret realm. Two fellow Taoists even died. In his hands. Could it be that Fellow Taoist Tang's breakthrough into the late stage of divine transformation was related to that secret realm?"

"Master Du must have fallen into the space crack!" Tang Ning asked without answering.

Du Yuanhai smiled slightly: "Such a grand event happens only a few times in a person's life. No one should join in the fun. Unfortunately, I am not lucky enough. I walked around and got nothing. "

"I remember that space cracks have not appeared in Xuantang City for more than a thousand years. The last time they appeared was in Huajian Pavilion. I was very impressed. However, my cultivation level was still low at the time, so I could only watch from a distance."

"Fellow Taoist Tang, I heard that there was a treasure in the golden pagoda in the Snake Man's lair. Could it be that my Taoist's great improvement in cultivation is related to that treasure? I wonder what it is? Can you tell me?"

Tang Ning remained calm: "Who did Master Du listen to? Or did fellow Taoist Daoist go to the golden pagoda in person?"

"None of this is important. Now that the space crack has disappeared, even if there are any peerless treasures inside, it has nothing to do with us. Those who are blessed and those who are not, the matter has been settled. I am just a little curious, so I take the liberty to ask, If it’s not convenient for you fellow Taoist to answer, forget it.”

"To be honest with fellow Daoist Du, I have also heard about the treasure in the golden pagoda. Unfortunately, that person is not me. My breakthrough to the late stage of divine transformation this time has nothing to do with the space rift."

"Oh!" Du Yuanhai nodded slightly, noncommittal.

"Speaking of which, space cracks have appeared more and more frequently in various places in recent years. I have seen them three times with my own eyes. Maybe the next space crack in Xuantang City will appear again soon." Tangning changed her voice. Bring this topic to light.

"Yes! It is indeed becoming more frequent."

"I have read in a book before that the formation of space cracks is related to monsters in the secret realm. Master Du is knowledgeable. What do you think of this matter?"

"This should be true. Many ancient books have clearly recorded that before a large-scale invasion of monsters, space cracks will frequently appear in various places. Therefore, many people speculate that it is the boundary-breaking behavior of the demon world that squeezes part of the floating space interface in the middle. Pressing against Tianyuan Continent, causing space cracks."

"If you put it this way, the day when the demon world will invade on a large scale is not far away."

"Who knows! But at least I don't have to worry about it. If I wait until that day, I will be dead long ago."

While the two were chatting, Zhang Yang came in from the outside, holding a storage bag in his hand: "Fellow Taoist Tang, this is the essence of the Taiyuan Stone you need."

"Thank you." Tang Ning took out the 30 million spirit stones that she had prepared and handed them to Zhang Yang.

"What price can you negotiate for a mere stone? Fellow Taoist Tang, just take it." Du Yuanhai said.

"Public is public and private is private, how can they be mixed? This thing is what Tang asked for privately. The transaction of money and goods is the most fair. Although your sect is not short of this spiritual stone, it cannot break Tang's rules of fair transactions. . Thank you so much, Master Du, and I’ll take my leave now.”

"I'll send Fellow Taoist Tang off."

Several people got up and went outside.

"By the way, Headmaster Du, if Guizong still finds what I need, please let me know. I would be very grateful." Tang Ning walked out of the mountain gate, turned around and left a few words before turning into light and leaving.

"Did he really take away the treasures in the golden pagoda?" Xu Yang frowned as he looked at his retreating back.

"Who else could be there besides him?" Du Yuanhai snorted coldly, staring at the direction he left, as if there was light beating.

Zhang Yang took a breath and said, "Fortunately, he's not here to rip me off this time."

…

Tang Ning left the Liuyun Sect and returned to the Jiang family's residence.

Within a month, he traveled around, visited various forces in Xuantang City, and gathered together the necessary training materials, except for the last four items.

The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky. After he returned to the cave in the Tianniu Mountains, Mo Fan greeted him as soon as he entered the cave: "Uncle Master, you are back."

"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Tangning saw that he looked strange and asked.

"Uncle Master, Senior Gu and the others have been transferred back to serve in various departments of the alliance." Mo Fan whispered.

"What? What does it mean to be transferred back to the wing?"

"The Guard Hall, Finance Hall, Affairs Hall, and Coordinating Hall said they were short of manpower, so they called Senior Gu back."

Tangning frowned: "Whose idea was this?"

"Disciple, I don't know, but the person in charge of human resources, Uncle Shi Lei, came forward."

"When did it happen?" Tang Ning's face darkened. Shi Lei was definitely not so courageous. Someone must have been instigating him behind the scenes. It was either Qin Jin or Sima Nianzu. What did they mean by doing this?

"After Uncle Master left the headquarters, Master Shi Lei came here on the third day. He said that various departments were short of manpower and asked Senior Gu and several others to return to serve."

"Where's Yuanya! Where are you now?"

"He was transferred to serve in the Guard Hall."

Tangning's body flashed, and the light flew up, and she arrived at the Guard Hall. Several disciples who were on duty inside saw him and stepped forward to salute.

"Ask Hong Kuan to come see me."

"Yes." A disciple responded.

Tang Ning went straight to the second floor of the attic, pushed open the stone chamber, and sat down at the main seat. After about a stick of incense, a man pushed open the door and entered, bowing and saluting: "Disciple pays homage to Master."

"Where is Gu Yuanya? Where did you assign her to serve?" Tang Ning asked gloomily.

Hong Kuan raised his head and glanced at him, then quickly lowered his head and whispered: "Uncle Master, Daoist Fellow Gu was responsible for escorting a ship of supplies. He went to Xuanyang Pavilion a few days ago."

"Is your guard hall very short of manpower?"

"Disciple...disciple." Hong Kuan muttered without saying a word.

"Let me ask you a question! With so many people there, do you have to send her there?"

"Uncle Master, this is not the disciple's intention. The disciple is also ordered to act. I hope Uncle Master will be considerate."

"Whose order is it?"

"This...this."

"Let's be honest! It's Senior Brother Sima or Senior Brother Qin."

"Uncle Qin issued an order to thoroughly investigate the waste of resources in recruiting monks in various ministries. Therefore, it was discovered that Daoyou Gu had been absent from the ministry for a long time. He ordered her to return to the headquarters and warned the disciples that more tasks should be assigned to those who had been absent from the ministry for a long time. On duty to make up for the previous vacancy.”

"Hmph!" Tangning snorted coldly, stopped talking nonsense to him, and walked away.
