Reading Is Holy! Exposed By My Junior Sister!

Chapter 178: Tracing the Origins of the Immortal Gate, Three Types of People Who Can Enter the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion!

Chen Chang'an had no idea about the rich thoughts going on in the mind of this old man, Yang Changdao.

He shook his head and smiled slightly, saying, "It's nothing, Senior Yang. I was just thinking..."

"It's almost time for the monthly salary distribution, and it's time for the ladies of the Hundred Flowers Sect's Qunfang Pavilion to be pampered again."

"Elder, is that what you meant?"

"Ah, yes."

At first, Yang Changdao didn't catch the meaning behind Chen Chang'an's words, but he nodded as if in agreement and said, "My nephew is indeed my nephew. The things my nephew thinks about are different from us old folks. Huh?"

Wait a minute!

Before Yang Changdao could finish his sentence, he suddenly realized that what Chen Chang'an had just said was exactly what he had been thinking about recently.

Could it be that this Saint Child knows about me and Qinghe?

No way.

Even between the two of us, we've only shown a hint of ambiguity. It's still early days.

Moreover, this Chen Saint Child stays within the sect all day long, never leaving the main gate. He couldn't possibly know.

It must be a casual remark from Chen Saint Child.

Shaking his head, Yang Changdao dismissed his thoughts.

He treated it as a casual remark from Chen Chang'an.

Next, the two of them exchanged pleasantries and greetings.

Until after a round of pleasantries, feeling that the time was about right, Chen Chang'an said to Yang Changdao, "Senior Yang, since the Patriarch has summoned us, we shouldn't delay any longer. Let's set off."

Upon hearing this, Yang Changdao also nodded and said, "That's right."

Yang Changdao was eager to leave.

He didn't know why, but in front of this nephew, he always felt like he was being stripped naked.

This feeling was really uncomfortable.

He didn't want to experience it for a moment!

Soon, Yang Changdao waved his hand and summoned a Law Weapon flying boat, saying to Chen Chang'an, "Chang'an, the place where the Patriarch is located is special, so let's use this."

He gestured for Chen Chang'an to board.

"Thank you, Senior."

Hearing Yang Changdao's words, Chen Chang'an didn't think much about it. After giving a slight salute to Yang Changdao, he stepped onto the flying boat.

Buzz buzz buzz!

Soon, the two of them boarded the flying boat and flew towards the horizon.

After a while, after transmigrating through countless magnificent and beautiful immortal mountains, Chen Chang'an and Yang Changdao arrived in front of a towering mountain peak.

This mountain peak reached into the clouds, and its summit was not visible at a glance.

Clouds and mist enveloped it, cranes flew in unison, and it was majestic and magnificent, resembling a sacred land of immortals.

This was none other than the destination of Chen Chang'an's journey.

It was also the most sacred mountain peak of the Heavenly Water Sect—the Divine Master Peak!

"Chang'an, this is the Ninth Patriarch's dojo. I won't go in with you. You can go in by yourself."

Arriving at a corner of the Divine Master Peak, Yang Changdao put away the flying boat and pointed to a Cave Mansion emitting a purple-golden light, saying to Chen Chang'an.

Even someone as esteemed as Yang Changdao, who was an elder of the previous generation, couldn't casually offend a place like the Divine Master Peak.

"Alright, thank you, Senior, for your trouble."

Chen Chang'an nodded.

After bidding farewell to Yang Changdao, he went straight to Cave Mansion.

Although it was called Cave Mansion, it was actually a small world.

A purple halo surrounded the surroundings, serving as both a formation and a protective barrier. Ordinary people couldn't see what was inside at all.

Chen Chang'an did not feel any surprise at the scene before him.

When cultivators reached the seventh realm of cultivation, a small world would be born within their bodies, which would be released after their death.

Some small worlds disappeared due to instability or improper maintenance, but some were preserved.

It was not surprising that Heavenly Water Sect had such a heritage, considering the long years it had experienced.

In no time, Chen Chang'an arrived outside the dojo.

He respectfully bowed to the light curtain and said, "Chen Chang'an, the 38th generation mountain lord of Hidden Dao Mountain, pays respects to the 9th Patriarch."

Chen Chang'an didn't know much about the 9th Patriarch, so he didn't know why the other party had summoned him.

"Is it Chang'an? Come in," came an old voice immediately from within the purple small world.

Then, the originally purple barrier suddenly opened a door as tall as a person.

Within the door, endless purple swirls rotated, as if welcoming Chen Chang'an's arrival.

"Thank you, Patriarch," Chen Chang'an said without hesitation, stepping inside.

Upon entering the door, he was greeted by a vast world.

Here, there was a wide and endless yellow river, and downstream from the river stood a purple dojo.

In the center of the dojo, an old man sat cross-legged.

The old man's eyes were slightly closed, wearing a blue robe, with white hair and many wrinkles on his face.

He looked like someone in his twilight years.

However, although he appeared somewhat old,

If one looked closely,

They would discover that the slightly old face was filled with an endless and majestic aura of deathly silence.

There was no doubt that this was a practitioner who had reached the end of his life.

The Dao Lord would not die; what was immortal was the Dao, not the person!

"Disciple Chen Chang'an, pays respects to the 9th Patriarch," Chen Chang'an pondered for a moment, then walked forward and respectfully bowed.

"It's Chang'an, come here," the old man said as he opened his eyes, with a kind and benevolent expression.

He withdrew from his meditative state and gestured for Chen Chang'an to come forward.

Chen Chang'an complied, sitting cross-legged under a cushion in front of the old man.

In this place, there were nine similar cushions in total.

Each cushion was made from the wood of the Heaven and Earth Dao Tree.

If one cultivated while sitting on it, they could approach the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth more quickly, making their cultivation twice as effective.

Naturally, these things were meaningless to Chen Chang'an.

He had always used Enlightenment Trees directly, and he had long been immune to these things.

After sitting down, Chen Chang'an curiously asked, "Patriarch, may I know why you have summoned me?"

The 9th Patriarch looked at Chen Chang'an and said, "Nephew Chang'an, you don't have to address me like that. In the path of cultivation, the one who reaches the highest level goes first."

"In terms of sect seniority, I am above you; in terms of cultivation qualifications, you are above me. How should we interact as peers?"

"Senior Ancestor, I dare not."

Facing the words of the Ninth Senior Ancestor, Chen Chang'an shook his head.

Cultivation is cultivation, seniority is seniority.

"How long have you been in the sect?"

The Ninth Senior Ancestor did not immediately give Chen Chang'an an answer, but instead asked him this question.

"So that Senior Ancestor knows, it has been over forty years."

Although Chen Chang'an didn't quite understand why the Ninth Senior Ancestor asked him this question, he still answered earnestly.

At the same time, information about the Ninth Senior Ancestor appeared in the corner of Chen Chang'an's iris.

[...]

One hundred and two hundred and thirty-nine years old?!!

Seeing the cultivation information of the Ninth Senior Ancestor, Chen Chang'an was instantly surprised.

He didn't expect that the legendary Ninth Senior Ancestor seemed to be a figure from a hundred thousand years ago.

A hundred thousand years, what a distant era it was!

From ancient times to the present, it's just like that!

Does Heavenly Water Sect really have such a long history?

Chen Chang'an admitted that he was indeed surprised.

In his memory, the history of Heavenly Water Sect was very long, even comparable to the Ten Great Sects.

But he didn't know that it would be so long, actually tracing back to a hundred thousand years ago. This must be an astonishing inheritance.

"Senior Ancestor, I wonder if there is something you called your disciple for?" Chen Chang'an asked immediately.

Just a second ago, he was amazed by the long years the Ninth Ancestor had lived, but in the next moment, Chen Chang'an remembered that this old man was already in his twilight years, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

He had indeed lived for over a hundred thousand years, but the time he had truly been active in this world was far from that long, not even three thousand years.

Immortality may be good, but guarding immortality alone is not something everyone wants.

In the face of Chen Chang'an's words, Senior Ancestor Jundao did not answer, but instead smiled kindly.

"Chang'an, please sit."

With these words, he beckoned for a chair and signaled for Chen Chang'an to sit down.

"Thank you, Senior Ancestor."

Chen Chang'an didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly on the chair.

After Chen Chang'an sat down, Jun Dao Lao Zu slowly asked, "Chang'an, do you know about the history of our sect?"

"I know a little," Chen Chang'an nodded.

The past of the Heavenly Water Sect is not a secret within the sect, and it is consistent with the information Chen Chang'an had just obtained from Jun Dao Lao Zu.

The predecessor of the Heavenly Water Sect was not called the Heavenly Water Sect, but an ancient lineage called the Taiyi Immortal Gate.

Taiyi Immortal Gate, with "Immortal Gate" in its name, shows how terrifying this lineage was.

It dominated the Xuanhuang Great World!

But that is all in the past.

Over the course of distant years, the inheritance of the Heavenly Water Sect gradually became lost.

In ancient times, it even fragmented and fell apart due to a major upheaval, with each branch going their separate ways.

As a result, in the present Heavenly Water Sect, even a Seventh Realm Dao Lord could be a disaster.

Chen Chang'an didn't quite understand why Jun Dao Lao Zu suddenly brought up this matter.

He believed that not only did he not know, but most people within the Heavenly Water Sect were also unaware.

Then, in the next moment, Jun Dao Lao Zu slowly said, "Here's the situation."

After about an hour, Jun Dao Lao Zu finished speaking at length.

And after hearing the old man's words, Chen Chang'an finally understood the purpose of his visit here.

In general, it was about the fusion of the three thousand realms. Recently, Jun Dao Lao Zu received a sense from one of the higher realms.

In that sense, he felt a strong Taiyi Immortal Gate inheritance.

This means that besides the Heavenly Water Sect, there is another force from the Taiyi Immortal Gate that has survived in this world, and they have also restored the Taiyi Immortal Gate lineage.

It was precisely because of the stimulation of this information that Jun Dao Lao Zu was able to awaken from his slumber.

Subsequently, using ancient techniques, Jun Dao Lao Zu established contact with the other party and confirmed this.

The reason he called Chen Chang'an here was because during the previous information exchange, the other side mentioned that they would send a disciple to welcome the people from the Heavenly Water Sect to return to their sect in a few days.

Jun Dao Lao Zu called Chen Chang'an because he felt that he himself was not capable enough to handle the situation.

"So, Lao Zu, it seems like you want me to go out and face the arrows," Chen Chang'an said.

"No, Chang'an, do you know about the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion?" Jun Dao Lao Zu shook his head.

"Heavenly Emperor Pavilion?" Chen Chang'an was momentarily stunned.

He was not unfamiliar with this thing.

As a disciple of the Heavenly Water Sect, Chen Chang'an naturally couldn't access this information. But as [Emperor Song], it was not difficult to obtain this information.

It is said that in a Xuanhuang Great World called Tianyuan, there is a place called the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion, which contains countless Heavenly Emperor treasures.

Every ancient lineage belonging to the Tianyuan Great World has the opportunity to send their Saint Child or other disciples into the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion to search for treasures during each major era.

What is the seventh floor of the Heavenly Water Sect's treasure vault?

It is a place that has accumulated the essence of the Tianyuan Great World over countless years.

To give birth to anything there, it must at least reach the level of a Dao Level item.

Even the most elusive miraculous medicine can only crawl outside the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion's medicinal garden if it is below the level of a Holy Medicine.

After countless years of accumulation, the things contained on the seventh floor of the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion are terrifying.

According to the information Chen Chang'an knew, there is a damaged immortal medicine residing there.

Although it is unknown how it compares to Kidney Deficiency, the fact that it can reach that level is extraordinary in itself.

In addition, there are also two damaged Forty-Nine Forbidden Dao Weapons.

Great Dao has fifty, and Tian Yan has forty-nine.

Although these two weapons are only damaged, they are still extraordinary.

Once they appear, they are still terrifying and unparalleled killing weapons!
