Chapter 86: Asking the Immortal Mirror (3/5)
"Junior sister, go and complete the sect mission first. I will take you to see the sect master."
"Okay, Senior Brother. I'll go right away."
"Senior, come with me. I will take you to see the Sect Master. The Sect Master already knew when we entered the inner gate just now. The Sect Master sent a message and asked me to take you to see him."
Hong Sun turned to Lai Yang to explain.
Lai Yang nodded.
After a while, Hong Xuan brought Lai Yang to the Zongzhu Peak where Li Jingyuan lived.
Hong Xuan stopped in front of Li Jingyuan's residence, bowed respectfully and shouted: "Disciple Hong Xuan, the person has been brought here."
"Well, please come in, Fellow Daoist Lai. Hong Xuan, you have done a great job on this sect mission. I have asked someone to double your contribution for this mission. Go back and practice well." Li Jingyuan's deep voice came out.
Hearing this, Hong Xuan showed joy on his face and bowed respectfully: "Disciple Hong Xuan, on behalf of Junior Sister Yao Qiaoqiao, I would like to thank the Sect Master. Disciple will take his leave."
Hong Xuan turned around and glanced at Lai Yang, then said, "Senior, I'll take my leave first. If you have anything, you can always come to Cangjian Peak to find me."
"Well, thank you for your help along the way." Lai Yang nodded.
"Thank you for your courtesy, senior. This is what I should do." Hong Xuan smiled, then turned around and quickly left the Sect Master Peak.
"Fellow Daoist, please come into my residence and have a chat."
At this moment, Li Jingyuan's voice was heard.
The door in front of him slowly opened, as if inviting Lai Yang to enter.
Lai Yang did not hesitate. Now that he was already here, there was no reason for him to shrink back.
Lai Yang entered Li Jingyuan's mansion, and soon he saw the familiar figure in the main hall of the mansion.
Li Jingyuan looked at Lai Yang with a deep gaze, with a gentle and welcoming smile on his face. He raised his hand and said, "Daoyou, this should be our first meeting. Let me introduce myself. I am the leader of Lingtian Sect, Li Jingyuan. The last time I spoke to you in the Mowu Dynasty, it was a wisp of my spiritual consciousness clone."
"Nice to meet you, Fellow Daoist Li. I'm from the Mowu Dynasty, Lai Yang." Lai Yang nodded and bowed in response.
"You are welcome, fellow Taoist. It is a great honor to meet you here today. Please take a seat."
Li Jingyuan pointed to the seat next to him. On the table were several fruits and spiritual wine emitting rich spiritual energy.
Seeing this scene, Lai Yang understood that this was something the other party had deliberately prepared for him, so he did not make excuses and took a seat immediately.
"Fellow Daoist, please try this spiritual fruit and spiritual wine to see how it tastes." Li Jingyuan said politely.
Lai Yang took a bite of the fruit that exuded a rich spiritual energy, and then took a sip of the spiritual wine. He immediately felt a rich spiritual energy rushing into his body, penetrating into his limbs and bones and disappearing.
"Good stuff, delicious." Lai Yang didn't know how to be polite and said sincerely.
"Haha, Brother Lai is truly a man of temperament." Li Jingyuan smiled faintly.
"I hope I won't disturb you, Mr. Li, by visiting you today."
"What are you talking about? If you are a guest of my Lingtian Sect, I welcome you anytime."
Li Jingyuan smiled and asked tentatively, "Fellow Daoist, have you thought it through? Are you willing to join my Lingtian Sect and become a worshipping elder?"
"Before that, I have something I want to ask Fellow Daoist Li." Lai Yang turned to look at Li Jingyuan and said seriously.
"Oh? You can tell me what you want, fellow Taoist."
Lai Yang clasped his hands together and then briefly explained why he came to Lingtian Sect so quickly.
When Li Jingyuan heard that Mo Ruyan tore up the talisman and disappeared in the Mowu Dynasty, his expression froze slightly.
How could there be advanced teleportation talismans in a place like the Mowu Dynasty? Could it be because of that incident?
Seeing Li Jingyuan's thoughtful expression, Lai Yang couldn't help but ask, "Daoyou Li, do you know anything about that teleportation talisman?"
"It's not something worth hiding, so I'll tell you, fellow Taoist."
"Hundreds of years ago, a demon descended upon this world."
"The power of that demon is extremely terrifying. It feeds on living beings. Whether it is a human or a demon beast, their life essence will be forcibly sucked away."
"The demon has been absorbing the essence of life continuously, and his strength has been growing stronger. By the time we reacted, he had already possessed the power of the peak of the Spiritualization in just a few years."
"To stop the demon from becoming more dangerous and causing great suffering to all."
"I have decided to join forces with a dozen fellow Daoists in the Spiritualization Realm to surround and kill him in the Cloud Rift Mountains."
"But we didn't expect that the devil was so cunning that he had the strength to escape even though he was seriously injured. We chased him for a long time in the Endless Sea, but unfortunately he finally escaped."
"We, several major sects, joined forces and even asked a great master in the Hedao realm to take action. We searched all the places nearby inside and out. At the same time, we secretly sent strong men to monitor the area for a hundred years. That demon has never appeared again."
"We all thought that the demon was dead, so we all withdrew our men. After all, he was seriously injured at the time and had also suffered Dao injuries. He would not have lived for long."
"The situation was very chaotic at the time. Perhaps someone accidentally left behind a high-level teleportation talisman, and your Taoist partner happened to find it and picked it up."
Li Jingyuan guessed.
Lai Yang pondered for a while and nodded: "If it is really as you said, there is indeed such a possibility, can you find the whereabouts of my wife for me?"
"In such a vast sea of people, the world of immortal cultivation is so vast that looking for one person is like looking for a needle in a haystack."
"But if you really want to find your Taoist partner, I know a place that may be able to help you."
Li Jingyuan said hesitantly.
"Which place?" Lai Yang looked at Li Jingyuan and asked with a hint of urgency in his tone.
"Don't worry, my friend. Just listen to what I have to say."
Li Jingyuan comforted Lai Yang, then took a sip of the spirit wine and spoke slowly.
"There is a force in Shangxianmen called Wenxian Sect."
"The Wenxian Sect has a treasure that guards the sect, and it's called the Wenxian Mirror."
"Ask the Immortal Mirror to get a glimpse of the secrets of heaven, predict good and bad luck, and change your fortune against the will of heaven."
"If you can borrow the Immortal Mirror, maybe you can find out the whereabouts of my Taoist partner."
"But the Wenxian Mirror is the Wenxian Sect's most precious treasure. The Wenxian Mirror is the foundation of the Wenxian Sect. Except for the Sect Master of the Wenxian Sect, no one is qualified to get close to the Wenxian Mirror."
"So far, there has never been a precedent of someone successfully borrowing the Questioning Immortal Mirror from the Questioning Immortal Sect. There are many strong people who rely on their strong cultivation to forcibly snatch the Questioning Immortal Mirror, but as far as I know, none of those people can leave the Questioning Immortal Sect alive."
"The power behind the Wenxian Sect is unfathomable. Perhaps they still have several ancestors in the Tribulation Realm hiding, and they are the top power on this continent."
Li Jingyuan's words undoubtedly poured a bucket of cold water on Lai Yang's head, as if he was persuading him to give up his unrealistic ideas.
After hearing what he said, Lai Yang really couldn't come directly to borrow the Questioning Immortal Mirror.
Practicing Qi, building foundation, forming Dan, Yuanying, transforming into spirit, merging with Dao, and overcoming tribulation.
With his current strength, he may not have a chance of winning against a strong man in the Hedao realm, let alone an old monster who is one realm higher than the Hedao realm.
I'm afraid that if we really face each other, I won't even have a chance to escape and will be crushed to death by just one finger of the other party.
"Don't be too sad, fellow Daoist. As a cultivator of my generation, there is no need to worry about not finding a Taoist companion, especially one as talented as you."
"You are such a genius, it would be a pity if you neglect your cultivation due to your obsession with love."
"If you need it, I can arrange for several beautiful women to take turns to serve you tonight. I will definitely satisfy you."
