Three days later, Ling Yun and his group boarded the Refining Heaven Cauldron and headed to the Crimson Fire Star Domain.
The Crimson Fire Star Domain belongs to the Dao Universe and is a force under the jurisdiction of the Daoists.
Back then, A Bao's mother, the Black Dragon Saintess, traveled through countless worlds. After arriving in the Crimson Fire Star Domain, she was chosen as a disciple by the Taoist Changqing Saint Venerable because of her exceptional talent.
He taught them the methods of cultivating their primary and secondary bodies.
Later, A Bao's mother left her main body in the Crimson Fire Star Domain and her secondary body returned to the Black Dragon Clan.
The one who falls in love with A Bao's father is the secondary body, but the primary and secondary bodies are connected in body and mind, without distinction between you and me.
In the Black Dragon Clan, his primordial spirit was shattered by A Bao's maternal grandfather and uncle, causing his death.
The main body has been searching for A Bao's whereabouts for years but has not found him.
A month later, Ling Yun and his group arrived in the Crimson Fire Star Domain.
After some inquiries, it was discovered that the sect of the Holy Venerable Changqing was located in the Crimson Star Domain Main World, specifically in the Crimson Domain Three Phases Temple.
Abao's mother is the head of the temple, and Changqing Shengzun is the patriarch.
As if it were a familial connection, Abao's mother had been restless these past few days, glancing at the temple entrance from time to time, unable to concentrate on her spiritual practice.
Sensing his beloved disciple's unease, the Holy Venerable Changqing came to her side and said lovingly:
"Yan'er, come with me to the temple gate to greet a group of special guests!"
Abao's mother's real name was Hei Shengyan.
"Yes, Master!"
Changqing Saint Venerable and Hei Shengyan slowly arrived at the entrance of the temple.
Hei Shengyan asked, puzzled:
"Master, may I ask which group of special guests are you?"
The Holy Venerable Changqing flicked his whisk and laughed:
"It concerns you!"
"What does this have to do with me?" Hei Shengyan was slightly taken aback. Because her father and younger brother had killed her husband and his clan, Hei Shengyan had long since severed ties with the Black Dragon Clan.
In recent years, I have devoted myself to cultivating the Tao and entered the realm of immortality, but I don't have many familiar friends.
"Could it be my son?"
Hei Shengyan's eyes instantly welled up with tears. "Is he really my son?"
She looked at her master expectantly for an answer.
The Holy Venerable Changqing stroked his beard and smiled, pointing to the foot of the mountain.
Hei Shengyan immediately looked over and saw a group of extraordinary young people climbing the mountain.
With just one glance, Hei Shengyan spotted A Bao in the crowd.
Abao immediately recognized Hei Shengyan as his mother.
The mother and son had never met before, but the power of their blood made them recognize each other instantly!
"Menglan, my son!"
"mother!"
Hei Shengyan ran down the mountain with tears streaming down her face, while A Bao ran desperately up the mountain.
The mother and son met halfway up the mountain.
"mother!"
"child!"
Abao threw himself into his mother's arms and burst into tears, expressing all the longing he had felt over the years.
Hei Shengyan wept uncontrollably. Her son was the only person she cared about in her life, and now she had finally found him.
Ah Bao finally felt the warmth of his mother; this was a scene he had dreamed of countless times.
The mother and son embraced for a long time, until they had cried all their tears.
Abao wiped away his mother's tears, then hugged her arm and pointed at Ling Yun and the others, saying:
“Mother, they are my eldest brother and sister-in-law, my younger brother and sister. They have been taking care of me all these years.”
Hei Shengyan bowed to Ling Yun and the others, "Thank you all for taking care of my son Menglan!"
The Yellow Emperor laughed and said:
"We're all family, no need to be so polite!"
Hei Shengyan smiled and said to everyone:
"Please come up the mountain for a chat!"
Upon reaching the mountain peak, the Holy Venerable Changqing bowed to Lingyun and his group:
"Greetings, fellow Daoists!"
Everyone returned the greeting with clasped hands.
The reputation of the Holy Venerable Changqing is quite good, and Lingyun and the others respect him greatly.
"Please come into the temple for a discussion!"
Upon entering the Sanxiang Temple, Hei Shengyan pulled Abao back to her own temple. The mother and son had not seen each other for many years and had endless things to talk about.
Ling Yun and the others arrived at the Changqing Tianzun Daoist Temple, where they enjoyed tea and discussed Daoist principles in a harmonious atmosphere.
In the evening, drinking and chatting were inevitable, and the Venerable Changqing, who had abstained from alcohol for many years, broke his usual habit and started drinking.
After all, Lingyun is an Immortal Emperor. Although Changqing Saint Venerable is extraordinary, having drunk wine with an Immortal Emperor carries significant weight and might even save his life in the future.
After a hearty meal, everyone enjoyed the moon and tea in the courtyard.
Ling Yun looked at Hei Shengyan and asked the question that had been bothering him:
Why is Grandpa Abao's lineage so determined to exterminate the Iron-Eating Beast Clan?
"Sigh~" Hei Shengyan sighed:
"It's all because of the Yin-Yang Stone. Grandpa Abao deduced that the Iron-Eating Beast Clan possessed the Yin-Yang Stone."
After all, the Iron-Eating Beast's original body embodies the Yin-Yang Tai Chi principle, and it wants to obtain the Yin-Yang Stone to reverse Yin and Yang and break the shackles.
"But the Iron-Eating Beast Clan doesn't have Yin-Yang Stones!"
After a moment of contemplation, Ling Yun said:
"Since it has been deduced that the Iron-Eating Beast Clan possesses the Yin-Yang Stone, it is highly likely that the Iron-Eating Beast Clan knows clues about the Yin-Yang Stone."
The Yin-Yang Stone contains the true meaning of the Tai Chi Yin-Yang principle. If you refine it, you can comprehend the true Tai Chi Yin-Yang principle.
For A Bao, obtaining the Yin-Yang Stone would broaden the path to immortality, granting him limitless potential and the possibility of reaching the pinnacle of immortality.
Hei Shengyan said:
"Over the years, I have been trying to figure out the whereabouts of the Yin-Yang Stone, hoping to find it and give it to A Bao. In the end, all my deductions point to A Bao's father, Mei Lan."
Abao's father!
Ling Yun looked at A Bao: "Did your father leave you any keepsakes?"
"Yes!" Abao took out the panda head jade pendant from his neck. "It was left to me by my father before he passed away!"
He has two jade pendants around his neck: one is a dragon-shaped jade pendant given to him by his mother when he was born, and the other is a panda-head jade pendant left by his father.
Ling Yun took the jade pendant and used his magic to take out a palm-sized animal hide.
Everyone immediately gathered around to look, and saw that there was a map on the animal skin.
After glancing at the map, Ling Yun said:
"This is Demon Cloud Valley! A place that cannot be deduced or found, existing at the intersection of time and space. Only the instructions on this animal hide can lead to Demon Cloud Valley."
Even the Holy Venerable Changqing was hearing about the Demon Cloud Valley's resistance for the first time.
Ling Yun continued:
"I also learned about this place a thousand years ago. It is said to be a place for refining immortals. In a certain era, there was an earth-shattering battle here, and countless immortal figures perished here."
This battle directly separated space and time, almost causing the river of time to collapse and nearly resulting in an irreversible disaster.
Later, when time and space were restored, Demon Cloud Valley existed within that spacetime, a place without time or direction, where immortality was possible!
Everyone suddenly realized what was happening and was amazed that such a mysterious place existed in the world.
Ah Bao immediately understood what his elder brother meant:
"Brother, do you want me to go to Demon Cloud Valley to find the Yin-Yang Stone?"
Ling Yun nodded slightly, "The Yin-Yang Stone is your path. If you want to become a big brother in the future, the Yin-Yang Stone is indispensable."
Do you aspire to become the ultimate master of the Tai Chi Yin-Yang Dao, replacing the Dao Ancestor as the new Dao Ancestor?
A Bao was slightly taken aback. "Replace the Dao Ancestor and become the Dao Ancestor? This... I haven't thought about it. But if my elder brother wants me to become the Dao Ancestor, then I will become the Dao Ancestor."
The Holy Venerable Changqing, who was standing to the side, was dumbfounded. The Dao Ancestor was his faith, and these two did not even try to hide their plans from him when they discussed replacing the Dao Ancestor.
Ling Yun laughed:
"Hehe... Then let's go to Demon Cloud Valley to obtain the Yin-Yang Stone, to prepare for becoming a Dao Ancestor in the future!"
