Chapter 513: The Supreme Daoist Leader, Preceptor Lei Zhongyun (Part 1)





At this moment, Zhang Haipeng's first reaction was actually one of bewilderment.

Although his worries and anxieties had been mounting, they were still in the accumulation stage.

Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that, in his subconscious expectations, he hadn't yet reached the point of utmost urgency and concern.

Although Lei Jun had personally gone to find Zhao Chanyang, Zhang Haipeng was prepared for the possibility that it might not be an immediate solution.

If it were easy, Zhao Chanyang would have returned on his own.

Zhang Haipeng was all too aware of Zhao Chanyang's exceptional talent, cultivation realm, and strength.

If he had encountered trouble, it was undoubtedly a major issue.

Such a predicament would naturally be difficult to resolve, and patience was required.

But who could have imagined that Lei Jun and Zhao Chanyang would return so quickly? This caught Zhang Haipeng off guard, leaving him with an unreal feeling.

Wang Guiyuan, standing beside him, remained calm and collected. He stepped forward to receive Lei Jun and Zhao Chanyang while keeping an eye on the Time Abyss, in case it underwent further changes.

Zhang Haipeng quickly regained his composure and hurried forward as well.

"Master," Zhao Chanyang addressed him.

Seeing this, Zhang Haipeng understood that although Zhao Chanyang's current state was not ideal, he was not in any serious danger.

"Thank you, Heavenly Master Lei!" Zhang Haipeng said as he supported Zhao Chanyang and expressed his gratitude to Lei Jun.

Lei Jun replied, "Your words are too kind, Zhang Zongmen. This time, it was Zhao Daoyou's profound understanding of the Dao that allowed him to overcome the challenges, and he was blessed by the heavens.

With the help of your sect's mystic pills, although it took some time and effort, I was eventually able to locate him.

During our journey, we encountered no other mishaps, so we returned together."

Zhao Chanyang spoke up, "If it weren't for the Heavenly Master's profound spiritual power, I wouldn't know how long it would have taken for me to escape on my own. In that demon-infested world, unforeseen events and dangers are common, making the future unpredictable."

Zhang Haipeng nodded in agreement.

Indeed, the mystic pills were extraordinary, but they had already cracked.

Finding Zhao Chanyang through the pills was not impossible, but it would undoubtedly take a considerable amount of time.

As Zhao Chanyang himself said, the demon-infested world was chaotic and bloody, with the constant threat of uprisings and unforeseen events.

Being injured and trapped, he was undoubtedly in grave danger.

With Lei Jun's vast abilities, finding him and helping him escape his predicament was not a problem.

But to find him so quickly, even Zhao Chanyang was surprised.

Lei Jun said, "Regardless, it's a relief that Zhao Daoyou has resolved your sect's old grudges. It's a cause for celebration."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Haipeng and Zhao Chanyang, the master and disciple, showed no signs of joy on their faces. Instead, they spoke in unison, "We, too, have our own concerns and attachments. Fortunately, today, we can offer our respects to the spirit of our ancestor in heaven."

Compared to before, Zhao Chanyang spoke a little more, but his words remained concise and to the point:

"I am grateful for the Heavenly Master's assistance today. However, by helping me, the Heavenly Master may become entangled in my sect's old grudges. As our past enmities are resolved, new ones arise, and I feel ashamed."

Lei Jun's spiritual power manifested as a Taiji Diagram of intertwined black and white, enveloping Zhao Chanyang and aiding in his recovery.

His gaze, like Wang Guiyuan's, remained vigilant as he observed the Time Abyss, "It was inconvenient to speak about it over there, but is Zhao Daoyou's new grudge related to the Demon Dragon Emperor in that demon-infested world's heavenly realm?"

Zhao Chanyang nodded, "Yes."

When discussing this matter with Lei Jun earlier, he mentioned that his injuries were caused by the Demon Dragon Emperor, but this statement was not entirely accurate.

"The Demon Dragon Emperor is planning something else, and although I was distracted, he hasn't left his dragon palace," Zhao Chanyang explained.

His cultivation realm, insight, and discernment far surpassed ordinary people, just like Lei Jun and Xu Yuanzhen. They had witnessed various phenomena in the world, and their understanding was profound.

However, the gap in cultivation realms between him and the Demon Dragon Emperor was significant, making it difficult to grasp the full picture with just a fleeting glance.

From Zhao Chanyang's perspective, the Demon Dragon Emperor was in the process of refining a spiritual object.

Earlier, Ge Xianzhi had encountered the Demon Dragon Emperor.

Lei Jun contemplated, "According to the information I gathered, the Demon Dragon Emperor is connected to the Northern Celestial Mansion in the Milky Way of that great thousand world. Its dragon palace is built in the center of the Milky Way, and its demonic power and innate talent are geared towards ruling over countless stars. The preparations it is making are likely related to this."

Is it preparing for a confrontation with the two other top experts in that great thousand world, the Great Annihilation Bodhisattva and the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree?

As Lei Jun was pondering this, Zhao Chanyang spoke softly, "I believe it has usurped the Purple Micro North Pole of that great thousand world..."

Lei Jun's eyes flashed upon hearing this.

Wang Guiyuan, standing nearby, also fell into deep thought.

They trusted Zhao Chanyang's discernment and judgment.

Based on this, a seemingly unrelated image suddenly appeared in Lei Jun's mind:

The Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree's incarnation, with its withered branches, emerged from the Time Abyss and exchanged a move with Gao Tian Sui.

Recalling the scene, Lei Jun asked while deep in thought, "Zhao Daoyou, based on the information you currently possess, is the Demon Dragon Emperor... a native of that great thousand world?"

Zhao Chanyang replied, "I cannot say for certain, but its sudden rise in that great thousand world, with no one knowing its origins, is not limited to the other demons in the heavenly realm. The human and earthly realms are equally unaware."

Upon hearing this, Lei Jun and Wang Guiyuan exchanged glances.

Zhao Chanyang's words were consistent with what Xu Yuanzhen and Tang Xiaotang had previously witnessed.

Although the Great Empty Temple's lineage had a long history in that world, evil had always prevailed over righteousness. The rise of the Great Annihilation Bodhisattva was particularly remarkable.

As for the Thousand-Eyed Great Venerable's transformation into the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree, it was even more unexpected and mysterious.

If even the Demon Dragon Emperor was not a native of that great thousand world but had come from another great thousand world, like Zhao Chanyang, Tang Xiaotang, and Ge Xianzhi, then the initial changes and turmoil in that demon-infested world, leading to the decline of Buddhism and the onset of the Dharma-Ending Age, became even more puzzling.

Or perhaps it was influenced by external forces.

"This is something I discovered in the heavenly realm of that world," Zhao Chanyang said as he took out an object.

It was a relatively intact talisman.

Although the talisman appeared dim and lifeless, Lei Jun could sense the subtle and profound auras emanating from it.

Connecting this with Zhao Chanyang's statement that he found it in the heavenly realm of the demon-infested world, Lei Jun had a general understanding.

In this great thousand world of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, during the end of the Later Han Dynasty, a great calamity occurred, causing a split in the human realm. As a result, different human realms experienced varying changes.

At the same time, some things from the past also accompanied the split of the human realm, ending up in different human realms.

For example, the six supreme treasures of the Shu Mountain Sect were later passed down in different lineages, such as the Great Tang, Great Han, and Great Ming.

At the end of ancient times, an even more intense and far-reaching calamity occurred, leading to the split of the entire great thousand world.

On Lei Jun's side, the heavenly realm shattered into Nine Heavens, and the earthly realm fragmented into Ten Earths.

In the Demon World, the Celestial and Earthly Realms remained intact.

The great calamity at the end of ancient times may have also led to the dispersal of various ancient artifacts.

Gao Tian Sui, He Ying, Zhuang Zheng, Zheng Baiyu, Ge Xianzhi, and others in this Great Thousand World had initially discovered the Heavenly Palace ruins together, which later led to their separate paths and the birth of the former Heavenly Palace subordinates.

The talisman that Zhao Chanyang found in the Celestial Realm of the Demon World was also likely to have originated from the ancient Heavenly Palace.

The first-class opportunity mentioned in the previous fortune draw should have fallen here... Lei Jun thought to himself.

Zhao Chanyang was not merely injured before.

Under the entanglement of the demon's power, he was almost confined to a small area, temporarily sealing him in place.

Thus, the Heaven Locking Abyss lived up to its name, and Zhao Chanyang could only be temporarily suppressed within it, finding a way to resolve it himself or waiting for someone to come to his aid.

After helping Zhao Chanyang escape, Lei Jun left immediately.

He didn't pay attention to what would happen after the third hour of noon at the Heaven Locking Abyss.

But referring to the fortune of the lower-middle sign, the one who posed such a threat could be the Demon Dragon Emperor, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree, or the Great Annihilation Bodhisattva.

Without anyone arriving in time to help, Zhao Chanyang, trapped in the Heaven Locking Abyss and injured, would have a hard time escaping.

This talisman might also have fallen into the hands of the enemy.

Now, Lei Jun took the talisman from Zhao Chanyang's hands.

【Sealing Talisman】

A name flashed in Lei Jun's mind.

With his cultivation level, experience, and keen insight, he quickly deduced that this was a double-edged sword.

In the hands of Lei Jun, Xu Yuanzhen, or Tang Xiaotang, this Sealing Talisman would serve one purpose.

If it fell into the hands of Gao Tian Sui or Zheng Baiyu, it would serve another.

In a sense, Gao Tian Sui might favor this treasure even more.

Therefore, it was even more crucial not to give him this opportunity.

"This is a treasure of the Talisman Sect..." Zhao Chanyang said softly.

Upon hearing this, Lei Jun carefully kept the Sealing Talisman and then solemnly bowed to Zhao Chanyang in the Daoist manner.

Zhao Chanyang declined politely, "Celestial Master, there's no need for such formality. I should be the one thanking you for your assistance across the Great Thousand World."

Lei Jun replied, "We are fellow Daoists of the Daoist Sect, and there's no need for such formality, Zhao Daoist friend."

Zhao Chanyang said, "In that case, I wish to return to Kunlun first."

He and his master, Zhang Haipeng, bowed to Lei Jun in the Daoist manner, and Lei Jun returned the gesture. Lei Jun's disciple, Han Xiaofei, escorted them.

"How is Tang Xiaotang doing now?" Wang Guiyuan asked.

Lei Jun replied, "My junior sister is also in the Celestial Realm of the Demon World, but she is currently engaged in a contest with other powerful demons. She is not yet able to face the Demon Dragon Emperor, but I have sent her a message to be more cautious."

As Lei Jun chatted with Wang Guiyuan, his eyes, empowered by the Heaven-Penetrating Earth-Seeing Talisman, communicated with the Heaven-Earth Talisman left in the Pure Sky.

After listening to Lei Jun's introduction, Xu Yuanzhen said with interest, "Is the Demon Dragon Emperor's occupation of the Purple Micro North Pole also rooted in his origins?"

Lei Jun said, "Zhao Daoist friend is kind and speaks with caution, but it's not difficult to see that he shares my concerns. The Demon Dragon Emperor seems to have a similar strangeness as the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree..."

When helping Zhao Chanyang break free, Lei Jun had direct contact with the demon's power.

The feeling he got was similar to that of the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree, which was...

Compared to the powerful beings above the Cavern Profound mentioned in ancient records, they seemed to have slightly less momentum.

Regardless of the Demon Dragon Emperor or the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree, their strength was naturally formidable.

If they were to exert their full strength, they would even surpass Gao Tian Sui.

If not for this, Zhao Chanyang wouldn't have faced such a predicament.

However, the Demon Dragon Emperor and the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree still gave Lei Jun a sense of... superficiality.

"If you don't have absolute confidence, it's better to be cautious when facing the enemy," Wang Guiyuan said from the side.

Lei Jun said, "Senior Brother's words are reasonable. Although I have such speculations, I dare not be careless."

Xu Yuanzhen's focus was on another matter, "You mentioned earlier that the newly acquired talisman is called the Sealing Talisman?"

Lei Jun replied, "Yes, if it falls into Gao Tian Sui's hands, it will greatly benefit his thoughts, plans, and schemes.

But if it falls into our hands, with careful planning, we may be able to further diminish his advantage."

Compared to Lei Jun and the others, Gao Tian Sui's most objective advantage lies in his superior cultivation realm, given his exceptional natural talent.

For Talisman Sect cultivators, the most direct manifestation of this is in the Mystic City.

The Taimei Barrier, at the second level of the Cavern Profound, already has a significant influence on the Tian Shi Barrier at the first level.

At the third level of the Cavern Profound, the Purple Microcosm Barrier, which returns to the true origin, will have an even greater influence.

One of the characteristics of the Purple Microcosm Barrier is its ability to command.

For Talisman Sect cultivators whose cultivation realm is inferior to Gao Tian Sui, to display the Mystic City or the Great Vehicle Mystic Realm in front of him is to invite humiliation.

However, this is still one of the powerful methods used by Talisman Sect cultivators in their battles, and when facing a top-tier expert like Gao Tian Sui, restraining oneself would only lead to further disadvantage.

"With this Sealing Talisman, we may be able to find a solution," Lei Jun said.

Xu Yuanzhen said, "Hmm, I'll go there later."

She was currently researching the restrictions left by Gao Tian Sui in the Pure Sky while healing her injuries.

These injuries were caused by Wang Dianchen's God-Slaying Sacrifice.

Although she had achieved the Primordial Origin Body and was ready for the next step, Xu Yuanzhen planned to heal herself and reach peak physical condition before considering enhancing her root bone.

"This ancient talisman is quite complete," Lei Jun said slowly. "While it contains various wondrous uses, it also vaguely reveals that the ancient Heavenly Palace was completely destroyed."

As he studied its mysteries, numerous fragments of time seemed to unfold before his eyes.

These scenes were awe-inspiring.

Countless immortals and gods withered...

In this Great Thousand World of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, after the ancient times, there were rarely any rumors of immortals, gods, demons, or Buddhas reappearing.

Even legends like that of Earth Treasury Bodhisattva were scarce.

Lei Jun had initially found it strange, but after discovering the existence of the Time Abyss, he speculated that other Great Thousand Worlds might have more ancient immortals and gods surviving to the present.

However, referring to the various light and shadow traces left by this Sealing Talisman, it seemed that other Great Thousand Worlds also had few surviving ancient immortals.

Earlier, when researching the ruins of the Heavenly Palace in this Great Thousand World, Lei Jun learned of the severity of the ancient calamity.

But now, the situation appeared even more dire than expected.

"The Three Pure Ones have already transcended, so we don't need to worry about them. But what about the others?" Xu Yuanzhen casually asked, "For example, our sect's Ancestral Celestial Master?"

Lei Jun replied, "It's still unclear."

Xu Yuanzhen said, "Then, later, I'll take a good look at this Sealing Talisman."

Lei Jun said, "By the way, Senior Sister, I have some good news. Junior Sister has successfully advanced from the Qingjing level to the Natural level."

Xu Yuanzhen's voice carried a hint of laughter, "That's exciting."

"By the way, Senior Sister," Lei Jun said, "I followed your previous instructions and went to Hua Ting's hometown to take a look."

Xu Yuanzhen: "How so?"

Lei Jun: "It does feel like he doesn't originate from that Demon World."

Before Xu Yuanzhen brought Feng Ting back from the Demon World, his hometown had been destroyed by a demon uprising, leaving corpses scattered everywhere with few survivors.

At first glance, there was nothing unusual, but Xu Yuanzhen vaguely felt that Feng Ting, born with the Purple Mansion Immortal Body, seemed subtly different from the natives of the Demon World.

Unlike when she first met Lei Jun at the Eightfold Heaven of the Cavern Profound realm, by the time she found Feng Ting, Xu Yuanzhen had already ascended to the Cavern Profound realm.

Moreover, the Demon World was unique, with its demonic energy and malevolent atmosphere overwhelming the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

Living in such an environment, even those without cultivation or spiritual beings might be affected.

Feng Ting gave Xu Yuanzhen the impression that he was born in a Great Thousand World where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth overwhelmed the demonic energy and malevolent atmosphere.

In other words, he might have accidentally strayed into the Demon World.

Lei Jun, who had been guiding Feng Ting's cultivation over the years, shared the same sentiment.

On this trip, following Xu Yuanzhen's instructions, he revisited the old sites and conducted another investigation after some time had passed.

Due to the time that had elapsed since Xu Yuanzhen's initial visit, which was shortly after the demon uprising, the demonic energy and malevolent atmosphere had somewhat subsided, making some traces clearer.

"As we suspected, there's a possibility that a Time Abyss once existed there, or perhaps the Time Abyss in that Demon World has changed its location," Lei Jun said.

Xu Yuanzhen: "So, what I'm most curious about now is whether Earth Treasury Bodhisattva has already entered Nirvana?"

Beside Lei Jun, Wang Guiyuan, who resembled Master Zhiqing, joined his palms and softly chanted a Buddhist mantra.

Chu Kun, who arrived later, glanced at the Time Abyss and said softly:

"Senior Sister, you're guessing that because Earth Treasury Bodhisattva was in that Great Thousand World, the Buddhist community there once flourished. After Earth Treasury Bodhisattva left, he came to our Great Thousand World to save the Boundless.

But during that period, there were... well, other powerful beings who created the Great Annihilation Bodhisattva, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree, and possibly the Demon Dragon Emperor, leading to the decline of the Buddhist community in that Great Thousand World, eventually turning it into the current Demon World?

If that's the case..."

Chu Kun wanted to say more but stopped.

By age, Feng Ting shouldn't have been from their Great Thousand World.

Over the years, they had been guarding the Time Abyss.

Chu Kun wondered if, even with his insufficient cultivation, Zhang Wantong, Xu Yuanzhen, Tang Xiaotang, and Lei Jun had been paying attention.

If Feng Ting didn't come from this Great Thousand World, then he must have accidentally strayed from another Great Thousand World into the Demon World.

In terms of time, there was a significant gap between his appearance and that of the Demon Dragon Emperor, the Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree, and the Great Annihilation Bodhisattva.

But the source of influence on these three powerful beings, could it be related to Feng Ting's origin from the same Great Thousand World?

"I believe Feng Ting himself is unaware of this," Lei Jun said. "We'll continue observing other matters later."

Wang Guiyuan pondered beside him: "The Hundred-Eyed Demon Tree and the other two may not have the same source."

Lei Jun and Chu Kun nodded.

Chu Kun then smiled and said, "Speaking of which, Second Senior Brother, it's also thanks to your profound understanding of the Heaven-Earth Listening Talisman that you were able to find Kunwu School's Zhao Zhenjun."

Lei Jun: "Even at the same cultivation level, I wouldn't have easily found him. It's because he's currently injured and his demon power is restrained by the Great Ease, allowing me to attempt to locate him."

The reason for Zhang Haipeng's earlier surprise was precisely this.

Although Lei Jun's abilities were profound, under normal circumstances, without the guidance of the Locking Heaven Abyss, it would still be challenging to find Zhao Chanyang, even with his injuries, due to the uniqueness of his Great Ease Dao Body.

Unlike Han Xiaofei's Great Void Immortal Body, which made it easy to overlook its existence, Lei Jun's methods could capture traces even when both parties were at the same cultivation level.

However, Zhao Chanyang's Great Ease Dao Body often made it difficult for others to fathom, even with a dedicated search.

"The Great Void Immortal Body allows one to learn from different lineages of the Daoist Sect," Chu Kun said with a sense of wonder. "I've heard that the Great Ease Dao Body can even allow one to cultivate Daoism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Martial Arts simultaneously."

Lei Jun nodded lightly.

In theory, this was indeed the case.

However, this mainly referred to the upper limit.

Whether one could reach that limit was another matter.

Simultaneously cultivating different lineages, exploring, and integrating them was indeed remarkable, but the time and effort involved were vastly different.

However, Zhao Chanyang not only had a superior root bone at the Dao Body level but also possessed a natural level of enlightenment.

Like Lei Jun, Xu Yuanzhen, and the current Tang Xiaotang, most of the various methods in the world seemed to hold no secrets for them.

As long as he was willing to invest the time and effort, he could possibly understand them all.

Having a foundation to observe and emulate was the best scenario.

If not, he could take more time and effort to explore on his own.

"With his Great Ease Dao Body and natural level of enlightenment, he could independently comprehend and establish the Daoist Talisman Sect and Daoist Alchemy Sect's lineages, as long as he has the will and dedicates sufficient time."

Lei Jun said, "The more complete the system framework, the more time and effort it will naturally require."

Chu Kun sighed, "Our sect's founding ancestor, the founder of Pure Yang Palace, and the White Celestial Master of the Daoist Alchemy Sect, even without the Great Ease Dao Body, were all astonishingly talented and opened up new paths."

Wang Guiyuan smiled, "Our sect's Ancestral Celestial Master is somewhat different."

Chu Kun also sighed, "Senior Brother is right."

Among the three major Daoist lineages, the Talisman Sect had the longest history.

According to rumors, the Ancestral Celestial Master had listened to lectures under the Three Pure Ones and, after their transcendence, single-handedly established the foundation of the Dragon Tiger Mountain Celestial Master Mansion during the late ancient times.

During the ancient times, he had an extremely close relationship with the Heavenly Palace.

The ancient Talisman Sect was also deeply connected to the Heavenly Palace.

Although it couldn't be confirmed absolutely, various signs from Lei Jun, Zhang Wantong, and even Gao Tian sui's earlier archaeological exploration of the Heavenly Palace ruins indicated that the changes brought about by the transcendence of the Heavenly Palace during the late ancient times were closely related to the ancient Talisman Sect.

The role played by the Dragon Tiger Mountain Ancestral Celestial Master was profound and shrouded in mystery.

Unfortunately, after the ancient catastrophe, there was no news of the Ancestral Celestial Master, and many mysteries were buried along with him.

The reason Wang Guiyuan called him special was that he wasn't just a superior root bone at the Dao Body level or a natural level of enlightenment.

Instead, he possessed the Wuji, which was even higher than the Dao Body and nature.

At this level, there was no distinction between root bone and enlightenment.

It was often said that the Dao Body and nature were close to the Dao, and many times, they were already part of the natural principles of heaven and earth.

The Wuji, which was even higher than the Dao Body and nature, could be described as being in harmony with the "Dao" itself.

Initially, only a few extremely powerful primordial beings, such as the Three Pure Ones, possessed this ability.

But for future generations, although it seemed ethereal and unpredictable, they still held onto a millionth, a billionth of a chance.

The reason for this was that there had been a precedent for achieving the Ultimate State through post-celestial means.

This sole precedent was the founding ancestor of the Dragon Tiger Mountain Celestial Master Mansion.

Up until now, the only post-celestial Ultimate State, whose talent surpassed that of many powerful celestial beings.

"After all, there's only one such example."

Chu Kun said, "From the perspective of founding a sect, the most likely candidates to achieve success are Zhao Zhenjun and Tang Xiaotang, the Taiyi and Taiji."

The former is the very beginning, the very end.

The latter is the beginning of the void, from nothing to something, from zero to one.

In the past, the founding of the Alchemy Sect's sacred land, Shu Mountain, was accomplished by multiple ancestral masters working together.

Among them was Bai Mei, a great sword cultivator with a natural level of enlightenment, and another ancestral master who had achieved the Taiji Dao Body was also part of this endeavor.

"Zhao Daoyou's temperament is the reason, and we probably won't see any other inheritance outside of the Kunwu School."

Lei Jun said, "But with him in charge, the Kunwu School will undoubtedly become more prosperous in the future."

The Sealing Talisman was handed to Lei Jun by Zhao Chanyang.

It was not difficult to see that Zhao Chanyang had also studied and researched it.

But his focus was on the traces of ancient times' light and shadow scenes preserved in the Sealing Talisman.

Zhao Chanyang did not pay much attention to the mysteries of the Sealing Talisman itself and the ancient Talisman Sect's methods.

Although he also liked to meditate and cultivate, he was clearly not as compassionate as Lei Jun and Xu Yuanzhen.

He only quietly cultivated the Daoist Dan Ding Sect's inheritance.

"It's not a waste, but it's a bit of a pity," Chu Kun sighed.

Through Lei Jun's Heaven-Earth Listening Talisman, Xu Yuanzhen's voice came through:

"If you don't think it's a pity, then it doesn't matter.

Compared to her, Xiaotang is still undecided, and perhaps she'll bring about something new after a few years."

Lei Jun said, "I suddenly thought of another person."

He flicked his finger, and a golden light flowed out, then expanded without interruption, transforming into the shape of a pure gold hall.

Wang Guiyuan and Chu Kun looked thoughtful: "Is it Chen Yi from the past?"

When mentioning him, the tone of the few fellow disciples became peaceful, as everything was already a thing of the past.

However, the way he had merged the Sorcery Blood River with the Daoist Talisman, opening up a path of cultivation, was still vivid in their memories.

Although it seemed crude in Lei Jun's eyes, there was something unique about it.

Like Lei Jun, Xu Yuanzhen, and Chu Kun, Chen Yi's talent had undergone more than one post-celestial enhancement, and he was no longer the same as when he was at Dragon Tiger Mountain.

But he still couldn't match Zhao Chanyang and Tang Xiaotang's level.

The secret to his success in opening his own path of cultivation lay in this pure gold hall.

And this pure gold hall was closely related to the Emperor Zheng Baiyu of the Netherworld.

Given Zheng Baiyu's performance in the Time Abyss during the Return to the Hidden Realm, it was not difficult to see that he had planned and envisioned this aspect long ago.
