The next night.
The Yunshui Residence in the Dongfang Family Mansion.
“Thank you for tonight’s hospitality, Patriarch Dongfang. Then we will take our leave and go to rest. Tomorrow we will go to Xuandan Palace together to send you to the Xuandan Palace Secret Realm, the Burial Ground of Immortals!”
“Miss Moyan, you’re welcome. If there is any inconvenience in this Yunshui Residence, you can directly contact Steward Zhou.”
“……”
After a round of pleasantries, Dongfang Yuejian finally arranged all the guests at today’s banquet, including Xu Taiping’s friend Zhang Moyan, properly.
Ever since yesterday’s ranking list conference at Xuandan Palace, the matter that Xu Taiping counter-killed the powerhouse of the Three Corpse Cave and successfully teamed up with the Dongfang family to participate in the Dragon-Slaying Meeting as scheduled has already spread throughout all the heavens and realms.
For a while, the threshold of this Yunshui Residence was almost trampled by cultivators from all sides who came to greet them.
Among them, there were those who came to make friends with Xu Taiping, those who came to inquire about the truth, and those who came to challenge Xu Taiping with swords and fists. There were all kinds of people.
Even the Dongfang family caught several assassins who came to assassinate.
Unfortunately, when these assassins were caught, they had all committed suicide and nothing could be asked.
Precisely because of this.
For safety reasons, the Dongfang family helped Xu Taiping decline the vast majority of cultivators who came to visit, and only host invited Xu Taiping’s good friends.
It has to be said that Xu Taiping nowadays.
After that journey to the wild to seek the Buddha’s fate and the great battle with Du Heng of the Three Corpse Cave two months ago, not only in terms of combat power and cultivation base, but also in terms of reputation, at least in the Lower Realm of Shangqing, no one can match him.
“Thinking back then, at that Golden Scale Meeting, in terms of cultivation base alone, Taiping-gege was still a bit inferior to me. Even in terms of combat power, he was only slightly higher than us.”
“But now, among the same-generation cultivators, it is already difficult for any cultivator to catch up with him.”
Looking at the backs of Zhang Moyan and the others leaving, Dongfang Yuejian suddenly said with emotion.
Master Xuanzhi smiled bitterly upon hearing this and said:
“Not to mention cultivators of the same generation. Now, looking at the entire Lower Realm of Supreme Purity, there are almost no cultivators who can suppress Brother Taiping in terms of combat power.”
When he said this, Master Xuanzhi suddenly looked up at the sky with a serious expression, and then continued:
“Otherwise, those people wouldn’t have spent such a great price to invite upper realm cultivators to come down and snipe at him.”
Dongfang Yuejian nodded, frowned, and looked at an ancient tower not far behind that was a bit out of place with her courtyard. Then, with a hint of confusion in her eyes, she said:
“But even so, along the path of cultivation, Brother Taiping is still more hardworking than any other cultivator and shows no sign of stopping for a moment.”
As she spoke, Dongfang Yuejian’s brows furrowed tightly, and she continued:
“It’s as if he is being chased by some extremely dangerous existence and dare not slacken in the slightest.”
The ancient tower not far away was precisely Xu Taiping’s Dragon-Trapping Tower.
Upon hearing this, Xuanzhi also looked at the Dragon-Trapping Tower, and then said with some confusion:
“Chased? Now in this Lower Realm, even the Demon Emperor of the Nine Abysses may not necessarily pose a threat to Brother Taiping, right?”
……
At the same time.
Inside the Mysterious Wilderness Tower.
Xu Taiping let go of the jade slip in his hand and muttered:
“Senior Saber Ghost, the note of the old ancestor of the Dongfang family indeed contains the clue to the complete Supreme Pure Mysterious Yuan Clone Technique, but the clue seems to point to a secret realm outside the sky.”
The jade slip given by Dongfang Yuejian is exactly the note left by the old ancestor of the Dongfang family after traveling in the Supreme Pure Realm.
And the reason why Xu Taiping is so curious about this note is naturally that there is a record in this note of the old ancestor of the Dongfang family encountering a great cultivator who has completely cultivated the Supreme Pure Mysterious Yuan Clone Technique.
Saber Ghost immediately asked in a deep voice:
”Do you know the name of this secret realm?”
Xu Taiping recalled for a while and then replied:
“In that note it is not clearly stated that it is a secret realm outside the sky. It only says that it was originally a star hanging above the sky. After it was broken, the largest piece of debris was occupied by a Taoist great cultivator named Xuan Chengzi as a Taoist place.
After hearing the name “Xuan Chengzi”, Saber Ghost immediately blurted out:
”Xuan Chengzi? Isn’t this the old ancestor who founded the Taiyi Sect?”
As soon as Xu Taiping heard this, his heart was immediately shaken and he asked:
”Does Senior Saber Ghost know where the Taiyi Sect is located?”
Saber Ghost replied:
”I don’t quite remember where it is specifically. I only remember that the Taiyi Sect was once very close to the Tianchan Sect, and there must be a connection between the two sects.”
Xu Taiping’s eyes lit up and said:
“In that case, it is indeed highly likely that the Taiyi Sect is a sect from outside the sky. After ascending to the sky, we may start with the Tianchan Sect to find its specific location.”
The Saber Ghost replied in a deep voice:
“It is indeed possible to give it a try in this way.”
Xu Taiping nodded, put away the jade slip, and secretly wrote down this matter in his heart. Then, with a solemn expression, he said:
“Let’s wait until after the Dragon-Slaying Meeting.”
Although there are still many things to do, the most important thing at the moment is to win the championship of the Dragon-Slaying Meeting.
This matter is very important, whether it is for him to rescue the people of the Qingxuan Sect, or to strive for a glimmer of life for the Haitang couple, or for the battle between the demons in the Shangqing Realm and the Jiuyuan.
“Once we fail, many of our previous efforts may be in vain.”
With this thought in mind, Xu Taiping immediately closed his eyes and concentrated.
The next moment, a golden lotus appeared in his sea of consciousness.
This was exactly what was deduced by the power of great deduction. It was the second of the seven golden lotuses that represented the only glimmer of life for Xu Taiping to go to the Taixuan Ghost Domain to rescue his master Lu Daoxuan and other people of the Qingxuan Sect decades later.
After sensing Xu Taiping’s aura, the voice of the Lotus Pupil rang out:
“Ready to unlock this second soul mark?”
Xu Taiping said in a deep voice:
“Yes.”
At present, there are only one or two days left before the opening of the Dragon-Slaying Conference. All the forces participating in the Dragon-Slaying Conference, even the Jiuyuan, have already appeared.
This is indeed the best time to open the second soul mark.
At this time, Liantong asked again:
“Do you know the detailed process of participating in this Dragon-Slaying Conference?”
Xu Taiping nodded and said:
“After the opening of the Dragon-Slaying Conference in Chenglongtian, the monks on the list will be summoned into the secret realm by the mortals in the Burial Immortal Ruins in the guise of various gods to assist them in slaying the Jinghe Demon Dragon born from the dragon energy in the Burial Immortal Ruins every hundred years.”
“And what the various monks on the list are vying for is who can assist the mortals in the secret realm to slay the demon dragon the fastest and win that strand of true dragon luck.
“During this process, in addition to using one’s own cultivation methods, it is equally important to help the mortals who summoned us improve themselves and obtain powerful magic weapons.”
After listening to Xu Taiping’s account, Liantong immediately felt relieved and said:
the more you know, the more accurate that appears in the Golden Lotus Soul Mark will be.
“Well, you can open the soul mark now.”
The reason why Liantong is so cautious is naturally because he is very clear that the success or failure of this battle will determine how far he and Xu Taiping can go on this path of cultivation in the future.
Xu Taiping nodded slightly.
Immediately, with just a thought in his mind, the golden lotus that was originally closed in front of him suddenly bloomed.
A soul mark then merged into Xu Taiping’s sea of consciousness.
