Chapter 426: Returning to the Void Realm is the Path to Ascension
Chapter 426: Returning to the Void Realm is the Path to Ascension
Li Xuanqing's expression showed skepticism about the situation, but he still offered Shen Yi some advice: "The South Flood Seven Sons are bound by life and death, but they won't hesitate to bring up grand principles and rules to take away your Southern Yang Sect's treasure land."
"The Qingyue Sect was once the closest to the Southern Yang Sect, like the sun and moon alternating. If there's any problem, just go to them."
"..."
Shen Yi looked at the Dao plate in his hand and slowly exhaled, "Phew."
Of course, he knew this was no easy task, but at least he now had a chance to hold his life in his own hands.
This was something others could only dream of.
"Can we go back now?" Li Xuanqing looked towards the formation array.
"Wait a little longer."
Shen Yi calmly stared at the horizon, storing the Dao plate in his finger ring.
"Wait for what?" Before Li Xuanqing could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a change in the youth's aura.
The body beneath the white robe seemed to gradually merge with the heavens and earth.
Divine Transformation Completion.
Shen Yi was different from other cultivators; he had actually cultivated for a very short time and couldn't be said to have any particular obsessions.
If forced to say something, it was living without pressure.
Now, he finally saw the path ahead and unhesitatingly chose the direction most suitable for himself.
This was probably Shen Yi's most relaxed breakthrough, and he could be said to have experienced the cultivation feeling of the likes of Jiang and Nie.
"Alright, let's go."
Shen Yi turned and walked towards the crowd.
No more hesitation.
To be honest, unless he intended to stubbornly stay here and not return, as long as the formation array was opened, there was no way to stop the others from entering.
As for stubbornly staying, who could outlast this wooden man? The other party had been waiting outside for so long.
The only thing Shen Yi could do was to determine Li Xuanqing's identity through his words. After this conversation, the other party seemed more like a Southern Yang Sect disciple than himself.
As he raised his palm, the Nanyang bas-relief was instantly enveloped in golden light.
Fortunately, Nie Jun had previously infused his aura... Otherwise, as the sect leader, he wouldn't even be able to open his own sect's gate.
When the light screen dispersed, all the people on the bas-relief disappeared from their original spots.
...
In the dim grand hall.
Li Xuanqing stared blankly at the familiar yet lifeless furnishings around him, under the gaze of the crowd.
He retracted his gaze and slowly walked towards the Sage Statue.
He broke off three branches from his body, waved his hand to ignite them, and then respectfully inserted them into the incense burner.
After doing all this, he knelt directly on the meditation cushion, closed his eyes, and seemed to turn into a wooden statue once again.
"Hmm?"
Nie Jun silently looked at Shen Yi.
He had originally thought that this would be a great help to the Southern Yang Sect, but after kneeling, there was no movement.
It seemed as if he didn't put Shen Zongzhu in his eyes.
"..."
Shen Yi turned and walked towards the crowd. At least this wooden man wasn't causing trouble, which was a relief. Placed here, he could barely serve as a guardian deity.
"Zongzhu, what should we do now?"
Li Qingfeng took small steps towards him, quickly changing the way he addressed him.
Whether it was the master's actions or Li Xuanqing's words, they all saw it and remembered it.
But even the most distant Yu Chao'an among them hadn't questioned this matter.
They were all born in the Southern Yang Sect; how could they bear to leave here easily?
As for entrusting their lives to Shen Yi, let's not mention that Shen Zongzhu is currently in the Soul Core Realm, far from the White Jade Capital, even if the other party truly achieved harmony with the Dao here.
After witnessing the bloody scene in the sky earlier, there was probably no one in the world more trustworthy than Shen Yi.
After all, in such a dangerous situation, they hadn't abandoned themselves and the others.
"First, let's clean up the cave mansions, and bring all the usable items from the treasure land to the main hall."
Although compared to other sects, it was undoubtedly barren, these treasures could greatly assist the cultivation of the native Southern Yang Sect cultivators.
Shen Yi took out his Dao plate and rubbed it a few times, and the entire Thousand Demons Cave instantly lit up with a clear light.
The tightly closed cultivator's cave mansions finally saw the light of day once again.
Seeing this, Li Qingfeng became excited, "Can we choose any disciple's cave mansion to live in?"
He didn't include the elders' cave mansions or the top ten treasure lands.
It was precisely because they were rebuilding the Southern Yang Sect that they had to pay more attention to these rules. Otherwise, the elders of other sects were all Reverting Void Realm Cultivators, and even the White Jade Capital had a bunch of Transform Spirit Realm cultivators. It would be embarrassing if they couldn't handle things better than him.
"Go ahead."
Shen Yi felt a slight headache; he truly wasn't good at handling these matters.
Compared to himself, whether it was the Wutong Mountain disciples from the Immortal Sect or the Martial Temple disciples who had once ruled Great Qian, even the Xu Family would likely handle things better than him.
As he watched everyone disperse, Shen Yi finally turned to the items he had put away in the finger ring earlier.
If he remembered correctly, the old dog should have collected all the palace treasures.
He walked back into the main hall and patted Li Xuanqing's shoulder, "Wake up."
Since he was a direct disciple of the Southern Yang Sect, it was reasonable for him to seek advice from the Sect Leader.
He laid out the dozen or so treasures in front of Li Xuanqing.
"Which one is better for me to break through the Reverting Void Realm?"
"..."
Li Xuanqing opened his eyes and, without much thought, pointed to the most inconspicuous dust brush among them, "Only this is a palace treasure, and it was something Xuanqing searched for when he was a disciple."
As he spoke, he gripped the wooden handle of the dust brush. There were a few barely noticeable claw marks on it, as if someone had tried to destroy it but couldn't.
As Li Xuanqing raised his hand, the dust brush instantly returned to its original state, and he handed it back.
Shen Yi was about to reach out to take the dust brush.
But suddenly, the Dao plate trembled.
After the Sect Protection Array was reactivated, it seemed to be able to receive messages from outside the Southern Yang Sect.
"The Southern Yang Sect has undergone a major change, and its lineage has been severed. If the Sect Leader doesn't mind, you can bring your disciples to visit the Qingyue Sect. I have arranged everything, and I await your arrival."
Shen Yi took the dust brush and looked at the wooden man.
It was clearly the elder from the Qingyue Sect again.
"If the Sect Leader plans to rebuild the Southern Yang Sect, you can go and take a look. Xuanqing was once a direct disciple, and since joining the sect, he has focused on cultivation and rarely involved himself in trivial matters. He has also never personally taught disciples. Now, he still needs to sincerely atone, so he can't help you too much."
"However, if you haven't reached the Reverting Void Realm, the Sect Leader may need to borrow some external power to reach the Qingyue Sect."
After speaking, Li Xuanqing closed his eyes again.
"..."
Shen Yi's deepest understanding of external sects came from the Transform Spirit Dan formula.
According to the records, the truly exceptional disciples all achieved the Transform Spirit Realm within a hundred years, and they had innate spiritual roots.
For the cultivators of the Southern Yang Sect, this was simply unimaginable.
Even with his own status, if he could see how external cultivators cultivated, it would undoubtedly have a multiplying effect.
