Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 947 Cangyuan's Reinforcements

After the two were seated, Master Xuyuan said apologetically, "Fellow Daoist Ning, I apologize. I failed to properly restrain Fellow Daoist Pei and Fellow Daoist Yuchan."

Ning Fa smiled and shook his head: "This matter has been temporarily resolved, Fellow Daoist Xu Yuan, there is no need to say more. In fact, it has nothing to do with you."

Upon hearing Ningfa's use of the word "temporary," a bitter smile appeared in Xuyuan Jushi's eyes.

At this moment, Ning Fa waved his hand in front of him, and a palm-sized blood-red banner appeared in a ball of light. Mysterious blood-red runes flashed on it, making it look extremely extraordinary.

“Fellow Daoist Xuyuan, this is the Blood Dawn Banner,” Ning Fa said solemnly.

Master Xuyuan immediately straightened his expression and carefully examined the Blood Li Banner, a faint blue light flickering in his eyes.

Soon, he solemnly thanked Ning Fa: "Fellow Daoist Ning, thank you for your help this time."

Otherwise, without this main banner, even if the Blood Dawn Banner could eventually be completed, its grade and power would definitely be greatly reduced.

Ning Fa waved his hand, but said with some concern, "But this main banner wasn't completely finished. Will it have any impact?"

Master Xuyuan smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Ning need not worry about that. This banner has already been refined to eighty percent perfection. As long as we use some precious materials and secret methods to refine it, there should be no major problems."

With that, the Hermit of Xuyuan put away the Blood Banner.

He then looked at Ning Fa, whose face was solemn, and couldn't help but laugh and say, "I think you have a lot of questions, fellow Daoist, but please feel free to speak."

"Given Fellow Daoist Ning's current strength and status, you are entitled to know all levels of confidential information. I will also convene the Elders' Council to elect you as the new ruling elder."

Ning Fa was not surprised by this, and after a moment's thought, he said, "I do have a question, and I hope Fellow Daoist Xu Yuan can answer it."

I want to know what kind of power we should seek help from regarding the Qin cultivation world.
As far as I know, the Great Qin cultivation world is a top-tier cultivation world in the human realm. In their eyes, our Cangyuan is probably just a remote and impoverished place, and they would likely look down on it.

But judging from my previous conversations with Fellow Daoists Biwu and Sang, they both seemed quite confident about this request for help, so I'm very curious about the reasons behind it.

Xu Yuan Jushi didn't seem too surprised by Ning Fa's question.

A smile appeared on his face as he said, "Fellow Daoist Ning, do you know that the three major sects, Wushi Demon Palace, Taiqing Sect, and Yuancha Sect, were actually branch sects established in Cangyuan by powerful forces in the Great Qin cultivation world? This can be traced back to as early as tens of thousands of years ago."

This is also a common practice among powerful forces like the Great Qin: to establish branch sects in weaker cultivation worlds, rule those areas, seize spiritual resources, and provide sustenance for their main sects.

However, with the rise of the demon race in the Cloud Broken Mountains, the communication between Cangyuan and the Great Qin was directly severed.

At that time, the power of the Yun Duan Demon Clan was not to be underestimated even by the cultivation world of the Great Qin Dynasty.

Moreover, just as Fellow Daoist Ning just said, in the eyes of the Great Qin, our Cangyuan is merely a remote and impoverished place, not worth the three major sects risking war with the Yun Duan Demon Clan, so they abandoned Cangyuan.”

Ning Fa was greatly shocked after hearing this.

Unexpectedly, the two most powerful sects in Cangyuan, as well as the mysterious Yuancha Sect, actually came from the Great Qin.

This is completely different from the Seven Saints Sect, which came to Cangyuan because of that mysterious relic of the true spirit.

Immediately, Ning Fa's heart sank further.

The Yuancha Sect has such an extraordinary background. It sounds like the Yuancha Sect is on par with the Wushi Demon Palace and the Taiqing Sect in the Great Qin cultivation world. Otherwise, those two major sects would not have allowed them to come to Cangyuan to develop together.

If it were before, it wouldn't have mattered, but now if the Great Qin really sends reinforcements, and Cangyuan's Yuancha Sect reconnects with the Great Qin's main sect, how can he cause trouble for the Yuancha Sect in the future?

At this moment, Ning Fa asked again with doubt, "Since the three major forces of Cangyuan have long severed ties with the main sect of Great Qin, and the demon race in the Yunduan Mountains still exists, can the three major sects of Great Qin still send people to help?"

A strange look flashed in Xu Yuan Jushi's eyes as he slowly said, "Under normal circumstances, these three major sects would indeed likely ignore it, but things are different now, which involves another matter."

Fellow Daoist Ning, you may not know this, but in fact, your Yunhuang Great Swamp hides a great secret.

This vast swamp was formed 30,000 years ago by a mysterious force, and its creation was likely due to an extraterrestrial object, which could very well be an unimaginably precious treasure.

Upon hearing this, Ning Fa's heart stirred, recalling the information left behind by the Ice Phoenix Ancestor, Bing Chen.

What Master Xuyuan was referring to was clearly the relic of the true spirit.

“Back then, our Ling Shu Pavilion Master was a Nascent Soul cultivator. He was the first to notice the anomaly and went there.”

Because the Yunhuang Great Swamp is close to the Tianli territory, Tianli also sent a Nascent Soul Ancestor there at that time.

The two traveled together to explore the depths of the great swamp, but both perished there.

Even the fortunes of our two great cultivation worlds were affected; since then, neither Cangyuan nor Tianli has produced a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Upon hearing this, Ning Fa's expression changed drastically. He immediately thought of what Bing Chen had said about the two Nascent Soul corpses he had seen in the mysterious lake. It seemed that they were the Ling Shu Pavilion Master and Tian Li, the Nascent Soul cultivator.

Unexpectedly, they were the last two Nascent Soul cultivators in the two great cultivation worlds.

At this moment, a look of sighing appeared in the eyes of the Venerable Master Xuyuan, and he continued, "But before the Ancestor perished, he also sent back some key information to the sect."

According to the ancestor, in the deepest part of the Yunhuang Great Swamp, there is a place called [Mingyuan Heavenly Pool].

There lies a great opportunity, but also great danger, so great that even Nascent Soul cultivators would find it difficult to cope, which is why two Nascent Soul cultivators perished there.

At the same time, the ancestor also left behind some prophecies.

For example, he said that the Abyss Heavenly Pool would disappear for a long time, and it turned out to be true. More importantly, what the Ancestor said about the Abyss Heavenly Pool is that it may reappear.

Moreover, by then, due to the changes in the primordial energy of heaven and earth, the dangers in the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool may decrease, making it possible for cultivators like us to enter it.

And the time he predicted for the reappearance of the Abyss Heavenly Pool is very close, possibly within the next few decades, or even less.

Ning Fa was greatly surprised upon hearing this.

Even the Ice Star Ancestor didn't know about this confidential information, after all, it was obtained by the Spirit Pivot Pavilion Ancestor at the cost of his life.

Clearly, the patriarch of Ling Shu Pavilion went deep into the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool and obtained some key information, which led to these judgments.

Moreover, according to this, the Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Tianli Immortal Cultivation World may have done the same thing, which could explain why Tianli chose to send troops at this time.

The sea race may have learned of similar news through the ancestral sea or through a member of their race with the talent for prophecy, which is why they sent troops to Cangyuan.

Thinking about this, many of Ningfa's previous doubts were answered.

At the same time, he also understood why Master Xuyuan was confident that he could persuade the three major sects of the Great Qin Dynasty.

"So the envoys who went to Qin this time used this news as leverage to persuade those three major powers?" Ning Fa asked immediately.

Master Xuyuan nodded with a slight wry smile on his face and said, "That's right, exactly."

If possible, I would certainly prefer that we in Cangyuan slowly explore the secrets of the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool ourselves.

But compared to the calamity of annihilation, the current situation is nothing compared to the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool.

Faced with such an opportunity, they should be able to persuade them.

Moreover, judging from current information, those three major sects are still top-tier forces in the Great Qin Dynasty. If they intervene, they should be able to persuade the Cloud Break Demon Clan to make way and clear a passage.

Ningfa then realized why these elders were so confident.

It seems likely that more information about the Mingyuan Tianchi will be revealed.

The Ten Thousand Bones Sect, located in the Rakshasa Immortal Cultivation World, likely cooperated with Tianli because of this news.

The reason Tianli did this was likely due to pressure from the sea tribe, and in order to achieve a quick victory.

Judging from this, it seems likely that many external forces will appear in their small Cangyuan in the future.

Moreover, even if the major powers of Qin send people over, it's hard to say whether it's a good thing or a bad thing.

After all, their purpose in sending people here to establish a branch sect was not pure. They were afraid that it would be easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away, and that once they came, they would not leave.

The thought of Yuancha Sect made Ning Fa's heart sink even more.

Xu Yuan Jushi seemed to have seen through Ning Fa's thoughts, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, sighing, "Fellow Daoist Ning, given the current situation in Cangyuan, we can only take it one step at a time and can't worry about anything else."

Because the current situation may be more serious than you imagine.

Tianli was obviously aware of the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool, and the reason for their cooperation with the Ten Thousand Bones Sect was this.

As far as I know, a higher-level teleportation array is being built behind Tianli, connecting it to the Rakshasa Immortal Realm.

Once the construction is completed, the cost of teleportation will be greatly reduced, and there will likely be a continuous stream of reinforcements from the Ten Thousand Bones Sect.

The sea creatures, it seems, also somehow learned about the Abyss Heavenly Pool.

Based on some clues, we learned that the sea creatures are also preparing to send a large-scale reinforcement from the rear.

Therefore, our Cangyuan is now in a precarious situation, with no other choice but to accept it, even if it's a desperate measure.

Ning Fa listened and couldn't help but frown deeply; this situation was truly terrible.

Neither of them spoke for a moment; only the rustling of bamboo filled the air, creating a somewhat subdued atmosphere.

Then, Layman Xuyuan let out a soft sigh of relief and looked intently at Ningfa.

"Fellow Daoist Ning, to be honest, I was originally very pessimistic about the situation of our Cangyuan, but Fellow Daoist Ning's appearance has given me more confidence."

Our Ling Shu Pavilion was founded 100,000 years ago and houses countless ancient books.

I have seen a lot in my life, but I have never seen anyone like Fellow Daoist Ning who has made such a terrifying progress in cultivation in such a short time.

I'm afraid even the core disciples of the powerful Nascent Soul sects in the Great Qin would find it difficult to compare with Fellow Daoist Ning.

It is foreseeable that Cangyuan will become even more chaotic in the future.

Therefore, Fellow Daoist Ning's improvement in strength is extremely important to our Cangyuan.

The reason I invited Fellow Daoist Ning to this meeting is to find out what Fellow Daoist Ning needs.

"As long as it can improve your cultivation level, our Ling Shu Pavilion will give you everything we have."
