“Alright! I’ll do my best to help Senior Sister Ziyang!” Chen Fei nodded in agreement.
A trace of joy flashed in Ziyang’s eyes before she casually tossed the Mountain Moving Seal to Chen Fei.
Though he was still struggling to suppress the Void Heaven Cauldron within him, Chen Fei couldn’t help but glance at the saintess. “Senior Sister Ziyang, this is…”
“Just as everyone knows, while the Mountain Moving Seal is impressive, it’s ultimately unusable. Keeping it with me is a waste. Better to give it to you. If it can inspire some comprehension of new techniques, it would still be worthwhile.” Ziyang Saintess replied nonchalantly.
Though she played it off with a carefree demeanor, Chen Fei couldn’t help but feel a mix of emotions.
It was obvious he had just revealed something about himself—he’d have to continue honing his concealment! As for the Ziyang Saintess, though she appeared friendly and approachable, the fact that so many senior brothers instinctively kept their distance showed she was no ordinary person.
“Thank you, Senior Sister Ziyang,” Chen Fei said without further pretense and accepted the Mountain Moving Seal.
Ziyang Saintess narrowed her eyes with a smile, “Then I should be thanking you, Junior Brother Chen, for helping me resolve a troublesome matter! Besides, with your naturally powerful physical strength, you might truly grasp something meaningful from it.”
Especially as she said the word grasp, her tone clearly grew heavier—she had definitely noticed something.
But that was fine.
After the gathering dispersed, Miao Yue approached Chen Fei cheerfully, “Son-in-law, I finally understand how you managed to build such a massive trade caravan back in Yellow Mist City! That’s good—now we don’t have to worry about any more challenges.”
Chen Fei smiled and nodded. Tonight’s banquet had truly cemented his place within Tianqing Holy Land.
But he knew this kind of maneuvering was just a small trick in the grand scheme. In the end, true standing in Tianqing Holy Land would depend on strength!
“By the way, can you tell me more about the Immortal Music Secret Realm?” Chen Fei asked softly as they stood at the door.
Miao Yue nodded, “Even if you hadn’t asked, I was going to tell you. The Immortal Music Secret Realm is a rare opportunity! The Dao Realm is all about laying foundations—if you find the right opportunities inside, your base can become even stronger!”
“Inside, you’ll find rare treasures like Dragon Vein Stones, Heavenly Flame Tempers, and others that help forge unique runes. Some of these can’t even be found in the Treasure Pavilion!” she added enthusiastically.
Chen Fei nodded thoughtfully.
It was clear now—Ziyang Saintess’s request for the Galaxy Star Sand Water stemmed from the fact that even the Treasure Pavilion didn’t have it. Otherwise, someone of her status wouldn’t need to ask him or offer such a costly trade.
“Saintess Ziyang is… peculiar. You’d better keep your composure around her!” Miao Yue advised seriously.
Chen Fei chuckled, “I thought you were going to warn me about dangers in the secret realm. From what Ziyang said, getting that Galaxy Star Sand Water sounds quite difficult.”
“No need to worry about danger! That realm is controlled by our Tianqing Holy Land. The worst you’ll face are a few guardian beasts. Risky, yes—but not life-threatening. What makes the Galaxy Star Sand Water so rare is how hard it is to find. Even if it’s right in front of you, without the right fate, you won’t be able to get it.” Miao Yue waved off his concern.
“I understand now,” Chen Fei nodded. “It’s getting late, time to rest.”
He pushed the door open and walked inside.
Miao Yue watched his back as he left.
Ever since learning his true identity, Chen Fei had tried to act indifferent, but she knew his heart was full of complicated emotions—especially about the young miss who had vanished without a word.
“Son-in-law… we’ll definitely catch up to Miss! We must!” Miao Yue clenched her fists, then leapt into the night sky and disappeared.
As soon as Chen Fei returned to his room, the Void Heaven Cauldron within him could no longer be suppressed.
The Mountain Moving Seal flew out of his storage pouch on its own and hovered before him.
Immediately, his condensed Void Heaven Cauldron Dao Embryo emerged and floated right above the Mountain Moving Seal.
The Dao Embryo was solid and heavy, golden and ornate, etched with intricate patterns that gave it a mysterious aura.
The paper of the Mountain Moving Seal, already somewhat old and worn, began disintegrating rapidly, releasing symbols and characters that hovered in the air before being absorbed into the Void Heaven Cauldron.
“It looked like a normal old scroll… who would’ve thought it had such effects?” Chen Fei watched the scene in awe.
The scroll soon vanished completely. When the last character was absorbed, the Void Heaven Cauldron turned into a golden light and returned to Chen Fei’s body.
The moment it settled into his Dantian, a massive wave of spiritual energy surged into his mind.
Chen Fei immediately steadied himself, palms up, to absorb and process the information from this torrent of mental force.
“A Heaven-rank technique? No—this is definitely not just a Heaven-rank technique!” Chen Fei exclaimed, unable to contain his joy when he opened his eyes again.
No wonder the Void Heaven Cauldron reacted so strongly. The Mountain Moving Seal was never its real name!
“This is the Yin-Yang Five Elements Seal! That’s the true form of the Mountain Moving Seal! What an incredible concealment technique! No wonder no one could understand the secrets within it. To think an ancient immortal would leave behind something so cleverly hidden!” The more Chen Fei examined the cultivation method, the more amazed he became.
At his current level, he could only use the first layer of the Yin-Yang Five Elements Seal.
Forming a hand seal, Chen Fei shouted, “Condense!”
The Void Heaven Cauldron trembled slightly, a fiery rune lit up inside him, and a bright red seal appeared before him.
Below the seal was a fiery character in seal script—small, exquisite, and seemingly delicate.
But its power was far from ordinary.
As a Yin-Yang Five Elements Seal, this was clearly only the beginning. Chen Fei focused his mind, and the red seal turned dark crimson—suddenly radiating a chilling, ominous aura.
“Oh no!” Chen Fei broke out in cold sweat. He was stunned—he hadn’t expected such a tiny seal to drain his mental energy so drastically! In just a flash, his spirit had nearly been depleted.
Thankfully, the residence for core disciples included a Grinding Dao Stone, used for honing Dao comprehension. It was crafted from special material that could endure Dao force—a safeguard for moments like this.
As the seal became unstable, Chen Fei tapped his finger gently.
In the blink of an eye, the dark crimson seal dropped onto the Grinding Dao Stone.
Boom!
A burst of flame exploded from Chen Fei’s room.
As for the Grinding Dao Stone, supposedly able to withstand the force of Dao, it shattered into pieces!
