Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

#618 - Chapter 617 Departure

Everyone hurriedly stepped forward to offer their congratulations. Fire Crow Daoist thanked them one by one. Finally, he said to Zhang Yuanjing, "If not for Yuanjing's miraculous pill, I would have surely failed this breakthrough! All I have today is thanks to Yuanjing. From now on, Yuanjing, if you have any need of me, I will never refuse!"

Zhang Yuanjing quickly replied, "Senior, you are already a True Being, how could you listen to the commands of a junior like me? If Senior doesn't mind, why not formally join my Profound Heaven Sect and serve the sect!"

Fire Crow Daoist nodded and smiled, "That is only right!"

Zhang Xuan said from the side, "External forces are ultimately supplementary; one's own strength is the foundation. Fire Envoy's advancement shows that he was destined for this opportunity. The two envoys' kindness to the Divine Sect is as heavy as a mountain. The Divine Sect will always regard Fire Envoy and Deputy Zhang Envoy as honored guests, granting them the highest level of courtesy! If there is anything you need, just ask. As long as the Divine Sect can do it, we will spare no effort."

Fire Crow Daoist and Zhang Yuanjing quickly bowed to express their gratitude.

Zhang Xuan continued, "Some things can be said outside. Allow me to finish up the matters here first."

She walked forward a few steps along the slope, approaching the layers of baleful aura gradually gathering below the cave. Through these 'light veils,' she could vaguely see the yellow-black currents below. A huge black dragon was happily leaping and frolicking in the water.

She smiled slightly, and with a thought, the black dragon let out a long roar, soared into the air, opened its huge mouth, and forcefully spewed out a large mass of yellow-black water, like mist and rain, rushing into the Yin-Yang baleful aura that permeated the entire space.

A 'chi-chi' sound was heard incessantly.

The black dragon fell back into the water, and after two breaths, it leaped up again, spraying out a rain of mist, extinguishing a large amount of baleful aura.

After about half an hour, the baleful aura at the bottom of the cave became thin. Zhang Xuan waved her hand, and the five Flow-Gathering Bags flew out, approaching the dark river below, and began to draw the Three Lives Water.

Ten breaths later, the five bags were full. She retrieved them, and ordered the five demonic cultivators who had carried the Flow-Gathering Bags to carry them back.

Then she said to everyone, "Alright, the remaining matters can be left to Lord Candle Dragon. In a few days, the baleful aura here will be completely cleared. As long as Lord Candle Dragon is here, we can rest easy and need not worry about the baleful aura condensing into light orbs again. In the future, if any Holy Core realm members need to advance, they can all come here."

An hour later, the group returned to Candle Dragon Hall.

Left Divine Envoy Lu Tianfeng and Azure Dharma King Chang Guangming had been waiting for a long time.

After Zhang Xuan briefly told the two about the underground affairs, she instructed everyone under the giant statue of Candle Dragon that they must strictly keep the matter secret and not reveal today's events to anyone. She also announced a law: anyone who leaks the secret will be punished for the crime of betraying the sect.

The next day, Zhang Xuan had a detailed discussion with Fire Crow Daoist and Zhang Yuanjing in the main hall on the first floor of the Holy Hall. This time, it was mainly to introduce them to the 'Yin-Yang Eye' Secret Realm.

Zhang Xuan specifically mentioned that this secret realm was formed by the mutual collision of turbid energy and spiritual energy. There were also dangers such as violent thunder, flowing fire, and poisonous mist within, but there were also many opportunities. There were opportunities suitable for demonic cultivators, and also opportunities suitable for Daoist cultivators. Moreover, because very few Daoist cultivators had been able to enter it in nearly ten thousand years, Daoist cultivators who entered it would have a greater chance of obtaining opportunities.

Fire Crow Daoist had already advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, so Zhang Xuan's words were naturally directed at Zhang Yuanjing.

Subsequently, with the advice of the Left Divine Envoy, Zhang Xuan began to make intensive arrangements: removing Lan Kuisong from his position as Golden Dharma King, replacing him with Liu Zhongzhu, and transferring Liu Zhongzhu back to Candle Yin Valley. A Dharma Transmission Envoy would take over as the Altar Master of the Nether Altar. Removing Chang Guangming from his position as General Altar Master, replacing him with Lan Xianyu. Determining Liu Zhongzhu and Quan Youxuan as the next candidates to advance to the Transformation Realm. Transferring 30,000 elite members from the Northern Three Altars to the General Altar. Sending Liu Zhongzhu and Quan Youxuan each to lead 50,000 members, dividing into two routes to attack the Southern Three Altars. Sending out a large number of secret agents to the Southern Three Altars to publicize Bai Tianming's crime of betraying the sect, calling on the members to break away from the rule of the Demon God Cave and go to Candle Yin Valley to submit to the Sect Leader. Externally, she sent out several newly appointed Guardian Vajras and Guardian Arhats to Xuan Yin Mountain, Six Peaks Immortal City, the Five Sects, and Thousand Sword Gate to gather information.

With all matters settled, Zhang Yuanjing and Fire Crow Daoist also proposed their intention to leave the valley and return north at the appropriate time.

Zhang Xuan did not try to keep Zhang Yuanjing. She seemed to have a contradictory feeling towards Zhang Yuanjing, on the one hand showing reluctance and attachment, and on the other hand appearing somewhat indifferent and resistant.

Several days later, she arranged a grand farewell ceremony for the two Divine Grace Envoys at the General Altar. Subsequently, together with the Lan Kuisong siblings, she escorted Zhang Yuanjing and Fire Crow Daoist to the entrance of Soul-Bewildering Valley, which was only separated by a mountain from the cliff valley where the two had been sucked into the Nether Cave. Due to the existence of restrictions, it was almost impossible to enter from the outside, but it was easy to go out from the inside.

Zhang Xuan revealed a complex expression, gazing at Zhang Yuanjing and saying, "Daoist, after this farewell, I don't know when we will meet again. Please take care! As for Zhang Jun and Zhang Yu, you must discipline them strictly and not slack off! If there is a chance in the future, bring them to Candle Yin Valley to see me."

She took out a dark and shiny token from the black and bright storage ring on her finger. This object was only two inches in size, with a pattern of the Holy Hall on the front, small and exquisite, and the words 'Holy Sect Token' on the back. Below it, there was also a small character, 'Envoy.'

"Daoist, this is the Holy Sect Token given by the sect to people outside the sect to identify their status. Please keep it safe. When you come to the Divine Sect's territory again in the future, you can go all the way to the General Altar with this token."

The Candle Divine Sect had always had three types of honored guest tokens for guests outside the sect, namely 'Holy Sect Token - Guest,' with a status equivalent to an Altar Master; 'Holy Sect Token - Minister,' with a status equivalent to a Dharma King; and 'Holy Sect Token - Envoy,' with a status equivalent to the Left and Right Divine Envoys. The one Zhang Xuan gave to Zhang Yuanjing was obviously the highest-level honored guest token.

Zhang Yuanjing took the token, but before he could speak, Zhang Xuan took out two more items and said, "Daoist, the Divine Sect has also collected some Daoist magical treasures over the years. I have selected two for you to defend yourself."

The two magical treasures Zhang Xuan sent were named Nine-Ringed Pagoda and Limitless Blade, both of which were top-grade magical treasures with extremely powerful power.

The Nine-Ringed Pagoda was a small pagoda about a foot tall, orange-yellow in color, with a simple and unadorned shape and strange runes engraved on the surface, running through the front and back, like a series of spells. The most special thing was that there were nine silver rings hanging on the outside of the pagoda body, connected by chains. Moreover, it was an earth-attribute magical treasure, which was compatible with Zhang Yuanjing's cultivation method. Once this pagoda was sacrificed, it would be like a maggot on a bone, tracking and clinging to the enemy, and then emitting sound waves through the beating of the silver rings to suppress the opponent's spirit. At its strongest, all nine rings could sound together, and even a Golden Core realm cultivator at the Great Perfection stage would instantly lose consciousness if they were not prepared.

The Limitless Blade was a semicircular, foot-long scimitar with strange patterns engraved on it. This blade was fast and swift, with a sharp blade and the power to break through the void. This could just make up for Zhang Yuanjing's shortcomings of insufficient attack methods and slow movements, and was somewhat similar to the Yin Wind Blade he used in the Foundation Establishment realm, but its function and power were not comparable.

These two magical treasures were not only top-quality among magical treasures, but also very suitable for Zhang Yuanjing's needs, which was obviously the result of Zhang Xuan's repeated deliberation and careful selection, filled with her feelings.

Zhang Yuanjing felt complicated. Looking at Zhang Xuan's eyes as deep as a secluded pool, he didn't know what to say for a moment. After a few breaths, he said solemnly, "Don't worry, I will treat Zhang Jun and Zhang Yu like other disciples, being strict when necessary and protecting them when necessary. I must make them talented, so as not to fail your trust!"

Zhang Xuan nodded and said nothing more.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Zhang Yuanjing asked her to return first. After three requests, seeing that she was determined not to, he had to turn around and leave with Fire Crow Daoist.

Zhang Xuan stood blankly at the entrance of the valley, watching the two disappear into the sky for a long time, unwilling to leave.

The empty mountain was lonely, the setting sun was setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun stretched her figure very long, overlapping with the shadows of the surrounding trees and grass.
