"Heh, Wang Yangzhan actually made a move on a little girl during the Yaochi Grand Gathering, trying to use her to deal with me. If it weren't for the intervention of the Holy Master of the Jiang family, he would have succeeded. What do you say about this?"
Ye Fan was also furious. His information had been leaked during the robbery of Yin Yang Pavilion, so he was not afraid at all and directly confronted them.
"How dare you... to tarnish the reputation of our sect leader!" The elder of the Yin-Yang Sect immediately denied it and accused Ye Fan of spreading rumors.
"Woof! You Yin Yang Sect people are too shameless! How many people in Yaochi saw this? Are you trying to distort the truth?" the big black dog cursed.
"The sect leader only saw that the little girl had good potential and intended to bring her back to the sect for further training. He had no other intentions at all..." the elder of the Yin Yang Sect argued again.
"Wow, wang wang!"
For a time, the group argued endlessly about the matter.
Beside him, Jiuli's royal uncle frowned. If the old leader of the Yin-Yang Sect had truly acted in this way, he wouldn't know what to say. However, he was here on the orders of Jiuli's emperor to mediate for the Yin-Yang Sect. After thinking for a moment, he could only avoid this issue and said, "Fellow Daoist, it is only right to announce it to the world, but could you give Jiuli some face and waive the compensation?"
He looked at Li Wangxian and said in a deep voice.
Originally, he wanted to try his best to mediate the matter of having the Yin-Yang Sect announce it to the world, but after hearing about Wang Yangzhan's actions and the Yin-Yang Sect's style, he felt that it was better to let it go and let them lose face again.
"Fine, but if the Yin-Yang Sect commits this offense again in the future, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After pondering for a moment, Li Wangxian nodded. He did not want to fight the Yin Yang Sect again, because the fact that the Jiuli Dynasty had been invited showed that the forces in Zhongzhou were wary of him to some extent.
Moreover, if the Yin-Yang Sect is pushed too far and they really reveal their true strength, then the situation may become very bad.
"A prodigy who has the potential to become an emperor, but who is not from one's own family, some forces will choose to befriend him, but if other forces seize the opportunity, they certainly wouldn't mind lending a hand to stifle the prodigy, right?"
Li Wangxian's gaze was as deep as the ocean. He had never underestimated anyone in the world. Although he had changed his appearance this time and no one could see the flaw, he was able to easily kill the old leader of the Yin-Yang Sect and take away the Yin-Yang Realm. With such combat power and being on good terms with the Holy Body, it would be strange if others didn't think of him as the banished immortal.
However, since he did not reveal his true form, the Jiuli Dynasty did not dare to offend or provoke him without being absolutely certain of its success. Therefore, it simply pretended to be confused, did not ask about his origins, and only dealt with the matter at hand.
"If the Yin-Yang Sect were to unleash its full power, would the Nine Li agree to lend out the Imperial Weapon?"
Li Wangxian looked at Jiuli's royal uncle with a calm expression. This possibility was not high, but it was hard to say that it was impossible. After all, his quasi-emperor weapon had not yet been exposed by the Gao family. Nowadays, people generally believed that he had borrowed the Jiang family's imperial weapon to attack the Gao family.
Therefore, in terms of his apparent combat strength, he is invincible among the Holy Lords, capable of defeating Dao Kings after entering the Divine Forbidden Zone, and possesses a Holy Weapon.
Of course, with this power, he could absolutely dominate the world. Even if the major powers of the Dao mobilized their imperial weapons to deal with him, it would be hard to say that they would be 100% certain that he would not escape. After all, although imperial weapons are powerful, if the person in control is only at the Saint Lord level, it is very possible that the banished immortal could use the imperial weapon to resist and escape. In that case, they would needlessly provoke a great enemy with unparalleled talent. No power would be so stupid as to do such a thing.
However, if a Saint-level being were to emerge, things would be hard to say. If such a being were to use an Imperial Weapon to hunt him down, unless the Jiang family also produced a Saint-level being with the Hengyu Furnace to protect him, then having nowhere to go in heaven or hell would be the least of their worries.
Therefore, if the Yin-Yang Sect were to truly reveal its hidden strength, Li Wangxian suspected that some powerful forces might secretly lend him an imperial weapon to kill him, a potential emperor.
Therefore, he decided to stop while he was ahead and gave the Jiuli Dynasty some face. After all, with Jiuli's intervention, his chances of breaking through the Yin Yang Sect's divine city were even smaller. So why waste his efforts?
When Li Wangxian relented, Jiuli's royal uncle breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said, "Please rest assured, fellow Daoist, if the Yin-Yang Sect dares to commit the heinous crime of capturing mortals again, the Jiuli Dynasty will punish them severely without your intervention!"
Although it is unknown what the emperor is thinking, if possible, he would not want the Jiuli Dynasty to provoke the Immortal.
Yes, that's right. Just as Li Wangxian thought, the Yin Yang Sect and the Jiuli Dynasty had already roughly guessed his identity.
After all, it was actually quite easy to guess. Not to mention the people involved, even some astute cultivators outside the area had already vaguely sensed it.
"Is that so?" Li Wangxian asked, his gaze fixed on the Yin-Yang Sect elder who was arguing with Ye Fan and the big black dog.
"The Yin-Yang Sect will strictly discipline its disciples from now on and will never repeat this mistake!"
Under the watchful eyes of the Nine Li Imperial Uncle and Li Wangxian, the elder of the Yin Yang Sect spoke without hesitation and with unwavering conviction.
Chapter 221 The Qin Clan's Search for Secrets
Under the oppressive gazes of Li Wangxian and the Nine Li Imperial Uncle, the Yin Yang Sect elders did not hesitate at all, and were almost ready to swear an oath to the heavens to show their determination. With this, the matter was considered resolved.
In the end, Li Wangxian and Ye Fan declined the invitation from the Nine Li Imperial Uncle and departed across the void, thus bringing the matter of the Yin Yang Sect to a close.
"It's rich! It's rich!"
In the vast wilderness of Zhongzhou, a large black dog bared its teeth, drooling as it looked at the spoils it had gained from robbing the Yin-Yang Sect. Its saliva practically flowed from the corners of its mouth like a stream, flooding the ground.
"These great religions are incredibly wealthy!"
The bandits and Ye Fan couldn't hide their excitement; their haul this time was enormous. Piles of source stones, massive quantities of spirit weapons, precious mortal medicines, rare dragon marrow, and countless other treasures—they had everything imaginable.
At this moment, the crowd gathered here, and divine light shone in countless rays, auspicious colors stretched in thousands of strands, and vital energy permeated the air. Amidst the rolling divine light, the entire wilderness was illuminated into a dreamlike scene, dazzling everyone present.
"This is just a preliminary estimate; these treasures combined are worth approximately eight million jin of resources!"
Ye Fan looked up from the treasure and announced an astronomical price that made everyone present green with envy.
"Wow, eight million!"
Li Wangxian's heart was also stirred. He knew that with so many treasures, the Yin Yang Sect was definitely going to suffer a major blow.
However, he understood even more clearly that the treasures hidden within the Yin-Yang Sect's mountain gate were far greater. Of course, this didn't just refer to simple Origin, but rather to imitations of sacred weapons, possessing unfathomable power and being priceless treasures. The value of these things naturally far exceeded eight million catties of Origin.
"What a great haul!" the monkey grumbled. For it, which had been penniless since birth, this place had solved its resource problem.
After a tense and exciting distribution ceremony, all the treasures were finally allocated.
This time, Li Wangxian and Monkey contributed the most and took the lion's share, each receiving one-third, while the remaining one-third was divided equally among Big Black Dog and the others.
At first, neither Li Wangxian nor Monkey agreed with this distribution, as neither of them were the type to enjoy food alone.
However, apart from the big black dog, Ye Fan and the others were very firm in their belief that the two had made the greatest contribution to the success and should take the lion's share; otherwise, they would feel unworthy of it.
Finally, seeing the resolute expressions on their faces, Li Wangxian stopped refusing and accepted his share of the treasures, including a portion of Origin, a portion of rare treasures and dragon marrow, which was worth approximately two to three million catties of Origin.
"Now that this matter is settled, I should take my leave and begin my arduous cultivation. See you at the Qishi Mansion next time!"
Li Wangxian flicked his sleeve, took away the treasures piled up like a small mountain that he had given him, and then took his leave. Although there were no saints now, and he could roam the world freely in the Big Dipper, he still felt a lump in his throat whenever he thought of the existence of the Supreme Being of the Forbidden Zone. He knew that with his cultivation, it was far from time to relax!
"See you at the Qishi Mansion again!" The bandits all responded. The Qishi Mansion, which only reopens once every ten thousand years and can only be entered by holy sons, was naturally something they wanted to do to cultivate and see what kind of fortune awaited them.
Only Ye Fan, the big black dog, and the monkey grumbled something. Naturally, they wouldn't go to the Qishi Mansion, but they still sent their blessings.
After bidding farewell, Li Wangxian didn't linger. He unleashed the Xingzi Secret Technique and disappeared into the horizon, heading towards the Great Wilderness.
After Li Wangxian left, the monkey also readily accepted the treasure, bid farewell, and departed.
Ye Fan and the others each had their own plans, and soon they all began to separate, which will not be described in detail here.
At this time, after dealing with the Gao family and the Yin-Yang Sect, Li Wangxian finally had time to retrieve a great opportunity in Zhongzhou, the "Military" secret, one of the Nine Secrets.
The Nine Secrets are the highest secrets of Taoism. These nine extraordinary techniques represent the ultimate limits of nine different realms, almost insurmountable. Even though Li Wangxian once had the idea of creating a divine technique to counter the Nine Secrets, he was well aware that at his current level, it was impossible for him to do so.
Moreover, even if he truly achieves great skill and attains such power in the future, he would likely need to thoroughly study the Nine Secrets to do so. After all, how could he create a divine technique to counter it if he couldn't even comprehend the profound mysteries of the Nine Secrets?
Therefore, now that he knows the location of one of the secrets, how could he not go and retrieve it for in-depth study?
During his time in Zhongzhou, Li Wangxian had already discovered the location of the Qinling Mountains. After bidding farewell to Ye Fan and the others, he quickly traversed millions of miles of void and arrived in the western part of Zhongzhou, in a place called the Qinling Mountains.
The Qinling Mountains cover an area of no less than a million li, making them vast and boundless, but relatively speaking, they are only a corner of the western part of Central China.
This is a mysterious ancient land, difficult for outsiders to understand. It has many legends and has been home to many powerful figures throughout history, though few know of them.
“Aside from the forbidden zone, this is probably the most dangerous place in Beidou right now! A quasi-Emperor level Holy Spirit is hiding in the ancient dragon's lair in Zhongzhou. No, that's not right either. There's a Azure Emperor's killing intent here, so it doesn't seem dangerous!”
When Li Wangxian arrived here, his eyes looked strange.
"This place seems rather special. It was here that the Great Emperor Wushi obtained the Chaos Stone and used the immortal materials contained within it to forge the Wushi Bell. The Azure Emperor was also born in the Immortal Transformation Pool in the Qinling Mountains before going to the Eastern Wilderness."
Li Wangxian was lost in thought for a moment. The Immortal Transformation Pool here undoubtedly held a great secret, but given his current level of cultivation, it was still a long way off before he could figure it out.
Therefore, he quickly stopped thinking about these irrelevant things and focused on finding the Qin Clan.
Soon, after several days of searching, he successfully found the Qin family.
Qin Gate is not large, with only a little over a hundred people in total. It has four branches: east, west, south, and north, which are also known as the outer gate.
The main gate is located in the center of this mountain range, only twenty or thirty li away from the branches to the east, west, north, and south.
Scattered throughout this area are some mountain villages inhabited by ordinary people who live next to Qinmen. Some mischievous children often run up the low hills to play, and no one cares.
It can be said that this small, declining sect with only a hundred or so members really had no strict rules and seemed very loose, not at all like a hidden secret sect.
However, this small sect, which appears to be a declining sect to outsiders, possesses two great divine arts: the Secret of the Soldier and the Divine Transcendence Technique!
"The Secret of the Soldier is located behind the Qin Clan Mountain. Should I join and experience the Ruthless Great Emperor's Divine Transcending Technique?"
Li Wangxian pondered to himself. With his abilities, he knew the location of the "Soldier" secret. Even though the Qin Clan had converted many top-tier Saint Lord level figures, he didn't take them seriously. He was confident that he could sneak in silently and obtain the "Soldier" secret. However, thinking of the Ruthless Great Emperor's Divine Transcending Technique, he really wanted to see it and see if he could gain some enlightenment.
However, after a moment, he shook his head and decided to forget about it and find the "Soldier" secret first!
Chapter 222 The Secret of the Military Character is Obtained, and the Mansion of Extraordinary Talents Reopens
Li Wangxian made a plan. After all, it was one thing to come here to search for the secret of the military strategy, but it was not his style to forcibly seize someone else's divine technique. And simply listening to the Qin Clan members preach would not allow him to easily comprehend the Divine Transcending Technique, otherwise it would be too childish.
Therefore, even if there are dangers and no guarantee of success, why waste time joining the Qin Clan?
After making his plans, Li Wangxian waited silently outside the Qin Gate until it was dark and the moon was high in the sky before he took action.
In the darkness, he used the secret technique of movement to move freely through the few protective formations of the Qin Clan. Silently, he arrived at the back mountain of the main peak of the Qin Clan as if walking on flat ground.
The moonlight was as clear and gentle as water. On the stone wall behind Qinmen Mountain, there were a few carvings, all of which depicted weapons such as tripods, bells, towers, spears, and swords.
"The secret of the character '兵' (soldier) is contained within it!" Li Wangxian's eyes gleamed with a strange light as he stared at these marks.
At this moment, as he focused his mind and sensed, two beams of divine light shot out from his eyes, almost tangible, penetrating the stone and nearly connecting with the imprint on the stone wall.
"It has an ancient and weathered feel to it!"
As Li Wangxian gazed at them, he found them quite mysterious. These brand marks looked like divine phoenixes spreading out, about to break through the sky!
"Hmm, so it really does take moonlight to get it in a short time?"
After a long while of contemplation, Li Wangxian had to sigh. Although he possessed extraordinary Daoist talent and could comprehend things even without meeting the conditions, the time required would be considerable, so he naturally had no choice but to do so.
Soon, as Li Wangxian waited, the divine moon appeared in the sky, bright and clear, its light falling like water onto the stone wall.
There were few weapon marks on the stone wall, and the engravings were originally quite crude, but now they were very different. The moonlight shone down, creating a peaceful atmosphere, and the weapon marks were glowing and flowing.
“It’s different now, turning the rotten into the miraculous…” Li Wangxian stared intently.
The clumsy engravings transformed into the essence of the Dao, each mark resembling a true dragon, a Kunpeng, a Qilin, or a divine phoenix, their mysteries beyond words.
The moon was full in the sky, and divine light flowed down like water, bringing all the marks on the stone wall to life. The carvings moved and were completely different from what had just been seen.
An ancient aura wafts towards you, carrying a sense of vicissitude and grandeur. The marks of Taoism shimmer, and a divine sound drifts through the air.
What was originally a set of poorly drawn weapon diagrams has now been completely transformed.
He saw a large cauldron, a round cauldron with three legs and two handles, symbolizing the Tao giving birth to one, one giving birth to two, two giving birth to three, representing the tangible traces of the Tao.
He saw a giant bell, unique in the world, representing time and eternity.
