The ancestor is incompetent!

Chapter 126 Secret
The sky was covered with dark clouds. The Qiling Sect, which used to be full of spiritual light and busy, was now immersed in sorrow. In front of the Xianling Hall on the main peak of Qifeng, white banners fluttered and white silk hung on the ground. The disciples, dressed in white, knelt on both sides with sad expressions.

Sect leader Chen Guan stood in front of the coffin, his face heavy with grief, holding a memorial in his hand, and spoke in a low and hoarse voice: "Today's ritual is over. Next, let's send Elder Zhang Qi and Elder Li Yuan to the afterlife."

"Yes, Master."

Wang Lingchuan, the new leader of Qifeng, responded respectfully. All sacrificial ceremonies were presided over by Qifeng, and he would naturally preside over the funeral affairs of the two true cultivators himself.

Chen Guan swept the hall with a heavy gaze, and felt the uneasiness and even fear from these Qi Refining disciples.

As for sadness, except for some old people like Bai Chen who are about to die and some old people like Qi Feng, the young disciples did not feel too much real sadness.

After all, the Qi Ling Sect today is very different from when Wang Xun was in charge of the Jade and Ancestors. At that time, there were very few disciples in the Qi Ling Sect, and most of them were masters and apprentices, and the Qi Feng clan law was inherited by blood relatives. Although there were minor conflicts within the sect, they were united.

But now, the sect has grown into a huge mountain gate with nearly two thousand members. Not only does it have the remaining forces of the independent cultivators headed by Chu Ziyi, but also the Qian family forces of Qifeng, as well as the hidden forces of other forces mixed in.

The interests of the five peaks are very different, but the various spiritual objects and interests obtained by the Qi Ling Sect are relatively fixed, so naturally there are more disputes between the peaks.

If the Qi Ling Sect were to encounter the same misfortune as Senior Brother Li Yuan did back then, I wonder if the Qi Ling Sect would still have so many people willing to sacrifice their lives for the sect's lineage.

He turned and left with a heavy heart, returned to Guchunyuan, and summoned Qian Guangqi, the master of Qifeng.

Qian Guangqi has now reached the realm of perfect Qi Refining, and is still in the process of accumulating Taoist meditation. However, he is a direct descendant of the Qian family after all, so his future affiliation will still depend on the decision of the true practitioners of the Qian family.

Therefore, when Chen Guan decided on his secret disciples, he naturally did not include him among them.

"Master, do you have any instructions?" Qian Guangqi still bowed respectfully.

Chen Guan came back to his senses and sighed, "Now that our sect is so large and powerful, but I am the only true cultivator in charge, I am afraid I cannot suppress the intentions of other forces.

Therefore, I would like to ask Senior Sister Qian to return to the mountain as soon as possible. With her in charge, I will feel more at ease. "

Qian Guangqi was embarrassed when he heard this and said, "This... When the Sect Leader asked me this question before, I sent messages to the clan many times, but there was no response.

If we don’t leave the mountain, I’m afraid Master Qian won’t be able to come back either.”

"As the closest descendant of the Qian family's bloodline, there must be a way to pass on the message." Chen Guan said indifferently, "If the Qian family thinks that my Qi Ling Sect is not important, then you don't care about the affairs of the real person?"

"What? A real...real person!" Qian Guangqi was shocked and trembled involuntarily.

"Go ahead and think about it carefully." Chen Guan said no more. He just said this and waved him away.

Qian Guangqi came back to his senses and didn't dare to ask more questions. He was a smart man and knew that these things were not something a Qi Refiner like him could get involved in, so he just said goodbye quickly.

The courtyard was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus. Chen Guan slowly closed his eyes, sniffed the refreshing fragrance, and said with emotion: "A hundred-year-old tree has a long-lasting fragrance.

As the old saying goes, when prosperity reaches its peak, it will decline, and when decline reaches its peak, it will rise again. My Dao has been passed down for more than 4,000 years. When it was at its peak of decline, it was you, Senior Brother Li Yuan, who gave it the opportunity to flourish. "

He held an old copper coin tightly in his sleeve and looked up at the lush golden osmanthus tree crown that covered the entire courtyard.

Even though the sect seems to be facing a critical moment with a lack of successors, its foundation is still there.

Not to mention that the supply of spiritual objects and resources for the four secret disciples is much stronger than before, and the chance of breaking through to true cultivation is also higher than before.

Even if Cui Huaiqiu and the other two went to the open sea, Qian Shiyan could still be invited back.

Li Yuan just faked his death and escaped, and without the burden of a sect, he could practice faster in the future.

It’s just a pity for Junior Brother Zhang Qi, his heroic soul has not returned, his body has not been left, and his life and death are all in the sect.

Even though Chen Guan felt very sad, as the head of the sect, he could not afford to make any mistakes. The sect had five peaks and four states, nearly two thousand disciples, and the heavy responsibility of four thousand years of inheritance all rested on his shoulders.

……

In Xuanyuan Realm, within the red-tiled courtyard wall, a new stone temple has been built. Li Yuan stopped in front of the temple and looked at the spirit tablet on the center hall.

The highest point in the middle is a blank spirit tablet. Below the tablet is a newly made tablet with the nine words "The spirit of Zhang Qi, the great disciple of Li Yuan" inscribed on it.

Naturally, the only person standing in the hall was Li Yuan.

He looked at the lingering fragrance and sighed silently: "The old image of Lingxiao appears as my mind wishes, and the fairy traces of Zifu frequently enter.

I, your teacher, only hope that your fate as an immortal is not over yet and that you have another way to go. "

There were very few cultivators in the world who had even heard of the Tianyan Ancient Qi, and even fewer who had successfully cultivated it. In the past thousand years on Nanjue Island, no one had ever truly cultivated this way.

Li Yuan could only offer sacrifices to Zhang Qi alone in this cave world, hoping that he would have a place to rest after his death.

Immortal cultivators have gone through dozens or hundreds of years and experienced all kinds of separations. They have become indifferent to the sorrow of separation and do not wail or cry. However, they are deeply in love and have sorrow in their hearts and frowns. Their faces do not show any expression, but the pain is in their hearts. These and the memories of their lifetime have brewed into a jar of old wine with a lingering aftertaste.

He raised his palm, holding a black bead. This was the black bead that Zhang Qi gave to Li Yuan. It should be different from the black bead given to Chen Guan.

But he did not let Li Yuan take back both of them to have a look. Since Zhang Qi arranged it this way, he must have his reasons.

Li Yuan's divine sense probed into the mysterious pearl, which contained all kinds of secrets of heaven and earth, and even the secret of the golden elixir.

These mysteries of the world might determine the rise and fall of a family or clan, or they might be something that some true practitioners have spent their entire lives trying to verify. Now, they have all entered Li Yuan's memory in this way.

Li Yuan was immersed in these secrets of the world and remained silent for a long time.

After an unknown amount of time, he finally woke up from his memory and went to the library to record everything.

"Ke Hai originated from the declining Fantasy World Avenue. When he sees water, he becomes gloomy, and when he encounters the dark, he becomes dark. Even though his status was divided by the ancient ways, he still remained extraordinary, giving birth to the status of Lingshui and Xuanyin, and becoming the current Xuanjiao Golden Pill.

Xun water is the real water formed by combining Kan water with the three elements. The status of Tianjiao Jindan is comparable to that of Master Jiang, and his strength is beyond glimpse.

Xuan Jiao's status is far less powerful than that of Master Jiang.

The Kehai royal family is also a mermaid clan. Their noble bloodline is tainted by their status, and it is extremely difficult for them to reproduce.

Therefore, most of the mermaids who truly practice cultivation seem to be transformed by the Black Mermaid with supernatural powers. They are mermaids when they are alive and turn into foam when they die, and become the Black Mermaid's possession.

"

Li Yuan was a little hesitant when he saw this, because if this was the case, then if he sacrificed several mermaids, wouldn't that make Xuan Jiao realize that some of his magical powers were lost?

But even so, we have to do it, because time waits for no one.

"The Wu Earth Mountain, with the Demonic Abyss in the north and a mass of 100,000 in the south, has clouds in the east and earth in the west. The veins of the South Extreme have been changing and extending for more than two thousand years. I'm afraid that the South Extreme in the past was not as wide as it is today.

The ignorant south cut off the common people and pointed out that the island was land, perhaps revealing his intention. The four directions are earthy, and combined with fire falling on the prosperous earth, within a hundred years, Wu will reach its peak.

At that time, Master Jiang will surely perform the change that will overturn the heaven and earth, and turn the island into land. Whether it succeeds or not, the pattern of Nanjue will definitely be different. If it succeeds, the Nanjue Island will be called a continent from now on, and the Wu Earth will flourish, covering millions of seas, and ten continents will emerge from then on.

If it fails, the southern island will lose its protection. If there is no immortal order from the central land, the sea will rise and the land will sink, and the island will be occupied by the sea creatures.

……

To the north of the city there is a He Lei who has shown his power. He has suppressed evil for thousands of years and still has majesty. I think most of him is still alive.

In the easternmost land, there is a fire virtue whose status is obscured by the rosy clouds, and its depth is unknown.

There might be a Jindan or even a real person hiding in Yunlan Mountain, but I dare not explore.

There are changes in the Xun wind in many places on Nanjue Island. Referring to the clan history, I think it may be the breath of Dugu Zhenren, but I dare not say for sure.

There are many evil cultivators within the Ten Thousand Mountains, and there is only the Wu Earth Rank. Due to its dominance, it is likely that there will not be room for other ranks, so there are mostly no True Persons within the Ten Thousand Mountains in the South.

……

Li Shan might be involved with Taixuan Immortal Sect. The ancestors of Qiling Sect must have concealed any clues related to the demise of Tianqi Immortal Sect in the Central Continent.

There may be a considerable number of great cultivators remaining in Linglong Sect, and there may be another storm after the trip to the cave.

……

The Shangshui Palace may be a heritage of ancient ways, but it no longer has any status.

On the Seven Star Mountain, there is a dark star, which may be the star grid of the Killing Wolf, only half hidden and half visible, or...

There is a snake called Guiyin in Bailingmen, whose blood is extraordinary. It is related to the Xuangui ancestor snake that accompanies Guishui. It hides in a small pond, but has a heart of a python that swallows the sky. It has great ambitions and may be useful...

There is a golden elixir status hidden in the Tianxia Mountains. Although it is not like a real person, it is better than the remaining status of a real person. There may be other mysteries in it.

……

The origin of Wang Qianlei in the sect may have a lot of origins, but I am afraid it is not obvious on the surface, and there are other profound meanings behind it.

Among the royal family of Dongchu, Wang Qianli possesses the virtue of fire, and his future achievements will surely be extraordinary. Perhaps we can borrow his help from him.

......"

Many secrets were recorded in Zhang Qi's book, which also included his own opinions and conclusions, but most of them were in a speculative tone with few assertions, in order to avoid any untrue content in the book.

After reading it, Li Yuan felt a little bitter in his heart. He felt sorry for his disciple. Most of his life's work was to help the decision makers in the sect to see the general trend of the world and the game between various parties, so that they could make the right decisions and avoid being blinded and causing the sect to go down the path of no return.

After sorting out everything one by one, Li Yuan had a clearer understanding of the situation on Nanjue Island.

Now, the Taiyin position has fallen into the Xuanyuan Realm, the Taiyang position has manifested itself in the world, and the Shaoyin position should have been taken away by the Linglong Sect and the mermaids.

As to who exactly it ended up in, it is unknown.

But it seems that Yang Dongchen snatched the Shaoyang status from the tiger's mouth and took away this strand of status.

Not long ago, the Linglong Sect directly issued a proclamation to the world, accusing Shangyang Palace of disobeying laws, slaughtering Linglong Sect practitioners, and oppressing many large and small families, etc. The Linglong Sect personally dispatched more than 20 practitioners and thousands of troops to destroy the Shangyang Palace inheritance that had existed in Dongji for more than 2,000 years.

As for Yang Dongchen, he has never returned to the East since he escaped from the cave, and no one knows where he is hiding.

It is said that in order to wipe out the remnants, the leader of Linglong Sect even used the Guanxia Sky Mirror to search all over Nanjue, but it seems that he still could not find the whereabouts of Yang Dongchen.

Only Yang Dongchen knew that Li Yuan and Zhang Qi had gone deep into the cave. Now that he was in hiding, Chen Guan held a funeral for them. He even sent Li Yuan to Beilin City just in case to prevent anyone from finding them.

After the cave fell, some spiritual objects were indeed scattered out. Many true practitioners fought in the cave to grab these spiritual objects. As a result, the cave collapsed and several true practitioners who did not have time to escape died.

Therefore, it was not surprising that Chen Guan held the funeral openly, and no one could have imagined that in addition to the three forces, there were two other people who had entered.

Li Yuan sat cross-legged in the center of the library, thinking with a frown. The Ziyang Cave Heaven was formed by four true persons, with Shaoyang as the root, so the Shaoyang position must be more valuable than the other positions. In addition, Yang Dongchen was indeed a man of good talent, and he also inherited a palace. Most importantly, there seemed to be someone above him, so it seemed that the possibility of him becoming a golden elixir was much greater.

Zi Yang Zhenren, the Lord of the Cave Heaven, was the preacher of the ancestors of Shangyang Palace. He has been dead for a thousand years. In addition to this position, the most important thing he left for future generations is the Taoist tradition.

Zhang Qi explored the towers and temples in the cave and roughly deduced that Zi Yang Zhenren should be the Zhenren of Taixuan Xianzong. The four symbols all belong to Taixuan, and Taixuan Xianzong is the main lineage of Taixuan Taoism. There must be a Zhenjun in the four symbols position in its Taoism.

True Man Zi Yang must have had a high status in the Immortal Sect back then, otherwise he would not have been able to borrow the status of two other True Men and True Man Shao Yin to personally create the cave heaven.

If Shaoyang Zhenjun was in power, he would naturally be able to sense someone ascending the Shaoyang throne.

Although there are very few cultivators in the world who can reach the stage of ascending to the throne, the number of cultivators from the twelve immortal sects and the countless cultivators from the nine continents is definitely not small.

But having the potential to ascend the throne is only a prerequisite for it.

The necessary key is the intention of a True Lord.

If the True Lord has no master and is not in the position, then it is easy to say. It depends on God's will, personal planning, and the forces of all parties.

If the True Lord has a master, then at this crucial step, it is only the will of the True Lord.

If the emperor does not agree, even if I die, my mission will be in vain.

If the Lord agrees, then our request will come true!
There can be many real people.

As for the True Lord, there is only one in the entire heaven and earth.

Wherever the True Lord is, it is the Immortal Sect, which is passed down for thousands of generations and enjoys a thousand years of salary. It is the highest existence in the world, and it is also an existence that all True Lords must respect and worship!

The will of a True Lord is the will of heaven and earth to those below him, and it cannot be changed.

If it weren't for the ability to block all paths within the Xuanyuan Realm, Li Yuan wouldn't even dare to think about it.

The will of the True Lord is the will of Heaven.

God observes man and hides nothing from him.

Li Yuan only came to understand these principles now. He deeply realized that even the real people were just chess pieces of the True Lord, who could use them at will.

But for Li Yuan today, the position of Immortal is what he looks up to and what he pursues throughout his life.

But now it seems that there is only a hundred years left. How far can he go within a hundred years?
A hundred years later, if Wu Earth becomes a continent, where will he go?
