Chapter 267: The Southern Gate of Heaven, the growth of luck, and the decision of Luwushan
After the destruction of Chongming Valley, the biggest gain for Jiang Lan was naturally Chongming Zhenyu and Su Xuanyi.
As for the other precious treasures, magical instruments, elixirs, sacred medicines, and ancient inscribed scriptures, they are of little use to him now.
In the small world, Su Xuanyi was bound by chains formed by the order of heaven and earth, with disheveled hair and a decadent look. He was one of the people who witnessed the will of the Holy Ancestor of Chongming being swallowed up by Jiang Lan, so he now understood how big the gap between the two was.
He had even dreamed of swallowing up Jiang Lan before, which was simply a fantasy and a foolish dream.
But now, regret is of no use. Chongming Valley has been destroyed, and the ancestors and senior members of the Su family have all died tragically, and even he is no exception.
The next moment, the void in the small world became blurred, and Jiang Lan appeared in front of Su Xuanyi. He grabbed Su Xuanyi and took her with him, then came to the valley entrance where the Chongming Egg was previously lying.
This place had experienced a great war and had been basically destroyed, with traces of scars and damage everywhere.
However, the entrance of the valley was still intact because it was protected by the formation pattern, and layers of sunlight surged and gushed out.
After Jiang Lan came here, he first found the broken Chongming eggshell, and then reassembled it with a secret method. He then put the Chongming real feather, which was glowing with brilliance, into it.
During this process, he used Su Xuanyi as the source of life, transformed her life essence into nutrients, and nourished the broken egg again.
Wisps of life breath gathered and covered its surface, and then a magical scene happened.
I saw mysterious and ancient runes begin to flash on the broken eggshell, connecting like the veins of a great road, quickly filling it up. The eggshell automatically repaired itself, and the place where it was broken and reassembled was filled with a breath of new life.
Jiang Lan heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this, but in fact he was not completely sure.
After all, the origin and essence in the egg had been devoured by Su Xuanyi. He was now only relying on the Chongming True Feather to see if he could use the blood power in it to reshape little Chongming's body.
It seems that this method is feasible.
Of course, it was also thanks to his powerful control over vitality that he forced Su Xuanyi to spit out the origin and essence that he had swallowed.
As time passed, Su Xuanyi tried to struggle and resist, but it was of no use.
As his life force completely drained away, his face became haggard and old, and the fire of life gradually dimmed, and he came to the end of his life.
Jiang Lan did not have much compassion, and during this period, he captured and understood all of Su Xuanyi's inheritance and secrets.
In the end, he felt a trace of life fluctuations coming from Chongming's egg, as well as a sense of intimacy.
Jiang Lan nodded with satisfaction, and Su Xuanyi also exerted her last bit of light and heat, completely destroying herself physically and spiritually.
Supported by this breath of life, little Chongming, who has been reborn from the ashes, only needs to wait to hatch from the egg.
Jiang Lan's mind moved slightly, and he put the Chongming Egg into the small world. At the same time, he marked out an area as the boundary for the hatching of the Chongming Egg, and then named this area Nantianmen.
While naming this area of land the South Heaven Gate, there was a violent rumbling in the small world, wonderful sounds emerged in the void, golden lotus blossomed, wonders fell from the sky, and layer after layer of magnificent fairy palaces appeared, vaguely and hazily, as if there really was a magnificent and ancient Heaven Gate standing there.
Jiang Lan felt the majestic fortune surging from the unknown, and sat there in meditation for a long time.
Rebuilding the future Heavenly Palace is the general trend. He has now established one of the portals of the Heavenly Palace, which is in line with the general trend of heaven and earth.
Relying on this good fortune, he clearly felt that the Dao Fruit of the Heart and the Dao Fruit of the World had matured a lot, and his understanding and control over the power of the mind and the power of the world had become deeper.
Now, every moment, Jiang Lan can feel his strength growing stronger.
"When I go back and take the Gou Chen blood from the Gou Chen Palace and build the Xitian Gate, my luck will soar to another level."
Jiang Lan did not take away the real blood of Gou Chen from Gou Chen Palace, and the strange phenomenon he created before was just to deceive people.
In fact, it is quite difficult to refine the true blood of Gouchen, and one day is not enough.
After leaving the small world, the things in Chongming Valley were almost dealt with. In the distance, Xu Yao had changed into a long dress as pure as snow. Her nine snow-white and fluffy fox tails were gently swaying in the air, and she was silently waiting for Jiang Lan.
Seeing Jiang Lan appear at this moment, she couldn't help but reveal a look of gratitude. She came in a fluttering dress, looking extremely beautiful...
Behind her, there were many rescued members of the Nine-tailed Sky Fox tribe.
Obviously, Xu Yao had already explained the whole story to all the clan members. When everyone saw Jiang Lan, they were all very grateful and almost knelt down to kowtow in gratitude.
After this incident, Jiang Lan's prestige in the Four Directions Star Region reached a new height.
Afterwards, they returned to the Gou Chen Palace. Palace Master Xu Xin and others came forward to express their gratitude, and sent clansmen to take Jiang Lan to obtain the true blood of Gou Chen as soon as possible. Gou Chen Palace would naturally not go back on their promise, and they were also afraid of leaving a bad impression on Jiang Lan.
It can be said that Chongming Valley was destroyed by Jiang Lan alone. There is no need to explain his strength and talent. Unless you are stupid, no one would think of offending him.
Jiang Lan did not waste any time. After obtaining the true blood of Gou Chen, he began to find a way to refine it and extract the Gou Chen spirit form from it.
Although the form of the Gou Chen spirit is not as good as the real Gou Chen, it is after all contaminated with the origin of Gou Chen. In the future, when he is strong enough, he will be able to reproduce the real Gou Chen in his small world.
During the time when Jiang Lan was refining the true blood of Gou Chen, the star fields in all directions were also shaken by the destruction of Chongming Valley, and the aftermath was still there.
The Chongming Star Domain was first taken over by the top leaders of the Xiandao League, and the Gouchen Palace obviously also recognized the Xiandao League as its leader, which means that two of the four star domains have already submitted to the Xiandao League.
Meanwhile, a great war was still taking place in the Kaiming Star Domain and the Yingzhao Star Domain. At the border between the two star domains, the fighting continued and the sounds of killing were deafening.
This caused many ethnic groups and forces in these two star fields to begin to waver and become indecisive, wondering whether to submit to the Immortal Dao Alliance and get rid of the war first.
However, Lu Wushan was obviously really angry and had no intention of making a truce with Yingzhao Dojo.
Although Luwu Mountain has declined in recent years and no outstanding figures have emerged, its heritage has always been profound. It is said that a wisp of Luwu's soul was once sealed deep in the mountain gate, suppressing the luck, and no one dared to offend it over the years.
Yingzhao Dojo is the most powerful force in the Sifang Star Region. Many people who have stirred up troubles in all directions have emerged, whether from the younger generation or the older generation.
In this conflict, Yingzhao Dojo has always maintained a strong attitude, forcing Luwushan to retreat step by step.
If nothing unexpected happens, it is only a matter of time before Luwu Mountain is conquered by Yingzhao Dojo.
"I thought that the Yingzhao Dojo suddenly went crazy because it was instigated by Chongming Valley..."
"Now that Chongming Valley has been destroyed, Yingzhao Dojo still shows no signs of stopping. Is this really aimed at the soul of Saint Ancestor Luwu?"
In the central area of Kaiming Star Domain, where Luwu Mountain is located, a group of gray-haired elderly men are discussing things in the meeting hall.
The current leader of Luwu Mountain is an old man wearing a khaki robe, with an easy-going face, a neutral and peaceful temperament, and holding a black cane. He looks unremarkable.
All the elders in the hall are very old, and there are very few young faces.
Luwu Mountain has not been open to recruit disciples for many years. In order to deal with the decline of the sect, the sect leader has increased revenue and reduced expenditure. The previous frequency of recruiting disciples once every hundred years has now been changed to once every five hundred years.
Therefore, there are not many disciples in Luwu Mountain, which directly leads to the loose control of Luwu Mountain over the Kaiming Star Domain.
The clans and sects on the ancient life stars everywhere have far less reverence for Mount Luwu than the main stars in other star fields.
When the Yingzhao Dojo attacked this time, many surrounding ethnic groups and sects directly chose to betray Luwu Mountain and submit to the Yingzhao Dojo.
"If this continues, the Yingzhao Dojo will really be attacked, and then we will have no choice but to fight to the death."
"So what do you say we should do?"
"Could it be that we should seek the protection of the Immortal Dao League at this time?"
"Alas, this is the general trend. What else can we do? The unification of the four star regions is inevitable. No matter how strong the Yingzhao Dojo is, it is impossible to stop the Xiandao League."
"Jiang Lan's appearance in the Four Directions Star Region is already a signal. Even if we don't surrender now, we will be forced to surrender in the end..."
"Jiang Lan is already able to kill a saint. If Yingzhao Dojo persists in its wrongdoings, it will only follow in the footsteps of Chongming Valley."
A group of elders in the hall were discussing countermeasures. Although some people insisted on resisting to the end, more people were forced by reality and wanted to seek refuge from the Immortal Dao League.
Of the four star regions, only Yingzhao Star Region and Kaiming Star Region have not yet submitted to the Xiandao Alliance.
Now that the Xiandao Alliance has come to this point, it will certainly find a way to unify the Four Directions Star Region. Jiang Lan happened to appear in the Four Directions Star Region at this time, and he must have come for this purpose.
He destroyed Chongming Valley and established his prestige, which must have had a deeper meaning.
"First, send someone to Gouchen Palace to test the waters and see what Jiang Lan's attitude is..."
"Jiang Lan was a romantic young man. Rumor has it that he likes beautiful women. Xu Yao, the young master of Gou Chen Palace, has always been by his side."
"If we want to test his attitude, we have to send a young and beautiful elder..."
The leader of Luwu Mountain frowned, and obviously felt that this matter was a bit tricky when he mentioned it, and his eyes swept over the elders below.
The two female elders froze for a moment, then became a little embarrassed. One of them even asked awkwardly, "Does the Sect Master want us to go visit him?"
"You are old..."
"If I were a few hundred years younger."
The leader of Luwu Mountain shook his head and sighed, feeling a little helpless. In such a huge Luwu Mountain, it was impossible to find even a young and beautiful elder.
For such a matter, is it possible to let the younger generation of disciples go? But this would seem to be a lack of sincerity.
"Master, the current patriarch of my family may be able to take on this important task."
"She once practiced in Luwu Mountain and served as an honorary elder..." At this time, an elder in a flowery robe below seemed to suddenly think of something, stepped forward, bowed, and took the initiative to speak.
The leader of Luwu Mountain was startled for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Are you serious, Elder Murong?"
"Master, rest assured. I am serious about what I said. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to inquire about the Mantuo Queen of the Murong family on Mantuo Star. This woman is the current patriarch of the family behind me."
Elder Murong smiled and started to think about it.
When the other elders heard this, their expressions changed slightly, and then their eyes became strange, and it was obvious that they had thought of something.
Since it is an inevitable trend for Luwu Mountain to submit to the Xiandao League, why not take advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits?
Cultivation is not only about talents and resources, but sometimes it also requires social skills.
Handling the relationship with the young leader of the Xiandao League well, clinging to his thighs and catering to his preferences are more important than anything else now.
"Master, I suddenly remembered that my family had a beautiful girl who was famous at the age of thirteen and had countless admirers..."
"Master, I have a good friend..."
"Master, I have also thought of this, a famous descendant..."
All of a sudden, all the elders in the hall stepped forward and took the initiative to introduce themselves, fearing that if they were slow in introducing themselves, this precious opportunity would be snatched away by others.
When the leader of Luwu Mountain saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
At that time, they were asked to resist the invading enemies from Yingzhao Dojo, but they all refused, saying that their cultivation was not good enough, they were ill, their old injuries had relapsed, or they pretended not to hear...
"The young leader of the Xiandao League is not a fool. If the people you recommend are not talented enough and cause him to dislike you, you will have to bear the consequences." He snorted coldly and frowned.
"Master, rest assured. There is absolutely no problem with the person I recommend. The title of Queen Mantuo is not given for nothing."
Upon hearing this, Elder Murong patted his chest and made a promise.
The other elders were a little hesitant. After all, they couldn't guarantee anything, and the matter had to be discussed in detail later.
The leader of Luwu Mountain did not make a decision immediately. At this moment, it would be inconvenient for him to go to Gouchen Palace in person to test Jiang Lan's attitude.
After all, Luwu Mountain is the Taoist heritage left by the god Luwu, so it is not necessary to seek protection by licking the shameless face.
The safest way is to send an elder with enough weight to test the waters.
At that moment, he waved his hand, and all the elders said goodbye and left. Then they immediately contacted their friends and descendants behind them to inform them of the matter.
"Someone, contact Murong Qiutang. I have something important to discuss with her."
Elder Murong walked out of the hall, put away the smile on his face, became serious, and gave instructions to the servants behind him.
Mantuo Star is an ancient life star within the territory of Kaiming Star Domain. There are three major families that have been passed down and have the deepest foundation and many powerful people. The largest family among them is the Murong family behind him.
The Murong family is backed by Luwu Mountain, and members of the family often make exceptions to come to Luwu Mountain to practice. Elder Murong himself is one of the most powerful elders in Luwu Mountain and has a high level of cultivation.
