After receiving the news from Sect Master Xiao, the elders who were currently in the sect quickly came to the Sect Master's Hall.
"Did something big happen? Otherwise, why did you call us here so urgently, Master?"
"Master, what did Lord Long come to tell you?"
As soon as everyone arrived, they asked Master Xiao what had happened.
If something big hadn't happened, Sect Leader Xiao wouldn't have called them all here, and wouldn't have been so anxious.
Some elders knew that Cang Yu came today, so they guessed that it might be related to him.
I have to say, I guessed it right. This news was indeed brought by Cang Yu.
Sect Leader Xiao did not answer their questions immediately, but said to them: "Wait until everyone is gathered first."
Although they were very curious about what urgent matter the leader had that had called them all here, after hearing what he said, everyone had to quiet down and sit down patiently waiting for everyone else to arrive.
Xuantian Sect is not very big, so the elders came to the sect master's hall very quickly, and everyone was there in a short while.
Xuantian Sect has a total of three supreme elders and nine elders, but the second elder and the seventh elder have passed away, so now there are only seven of the nine elders left.
Two of the three supreme elders came, namely, Supreme Elder Li and Supreme Elder Han. As for the elders, except for the Eighth Elder Wei Zhao and the Sixth Elder who were not in the sect, all the others were present.
Generally, if the elders have nothing to do, they will not leave the sect, but stay in the sect to guard it.
Because Wei Zhao got a piece of Nine Heavens Mysterious Iron from Lilia, he asked the Fifth Elder to help him reforge his natal sword. Some time ago, his natal sword was upgraded to a lower-grade immortal weapon, so he went out to show off to his friends and did not return to the sect.
So even though he received the message from Sect Leader Xiao, he couldn't get back so quickly.
As for the Sixth Elder, he is in the sect, but he is currently in seclusion practicing, so he did not come.
At this moment, in the sect leader's hall, in addition to the sect leader Xiao Changjin, there were two supreme elders, five elders, and a Lin Xu. The sect leader's eldest disciple was also called over.
Although Lin Xu was not the oldest among the disciples of their generation, he was already the one with the highest cultivation among his fellow disciples, having reached the early stage of out-of-body cultivation. In addition, he was the future sect leader, so Sect Leader Xiao asked him to come as well.
Lin Xu has the lowest seniority and cultivation level here, so he is naturally not qualified to speak in this kind of occasion.
"Chang Jin, what is it that you asked us to come here to talk about?" The first person to speak was Elder Li. As the person with the highest seniority, age, and even cultivation level present, he naturally had the most say.
Even the Sect Leader Xiao had to bow respectfully and call him "Uncle Master" in front of him.
After hearing what Grand Elder Li said, Sect Leader Xiao didn't waste any words and directly took out the jade slip that Cang Yu gave him and said to everyone, "After you read this jade slip, you will naturally understand."
Elder Li Taishang was the first to take the jade slip, and then he used his spiritual sense to probe into the jade slip and read the contents recorded in it.
Naturally, others did not dare to disturb, but watched quietly from the side.
Later, they discovered that after Grand Elder Li finished reading the jade slip, his expression became even more solemn, which made everyone more curious about what was recorded in the jade slip.
Not only would it make the head of the sect rush to call them over, it would also cause the great elder Li to change his expression in an instant.
However, if they want to know what could have caused such a big reaction from Grand Elder Li, they don’t have to wait too long. They will find out soon.
"Senior Brother Li, what is inside the jade slip? It makes you so solemn." Elder Han asked upon seeing this.
Elder Li did not answer him, but handed him the jade slip and said in a deep voice: "You will know after you read it yourself."
He didn't know where to start talking about this matter, so he decided to let Junior Brother Han read it himself.
Upon hearing this, Elder Han took the jade slip and began to read it like Elder Li.
Like Grand Elder Li, Grand Elder Han's expression became increasingly solemn after reading the jade slip.
After everyone finished reading the jade slip, they all understood why Grand Elder Li and the others acted like that, because this matter was so shocking to them.
"Since everyone has read the jade slip, I'm sure you all know it without me saying anything, right? What do you think?"
Everyone was shocked by this incident, so no one answered for a while. It was only when Elder Li coughed lightly to draw everyone's attention to him that he spoke: "This matter is of great importance. No matter what, we must find the tomb of Immortal Chongming, understand the reason why the path to ascension was cut off, and unravel the meaning of the words left by Senior Yuan Yi."
Ascension is the lifelong pursuit of cultivators. Why would Yuan Yi leave such words? This matter cannot help but make people think deeply.
Everyone naturally agreed with what Elder Li said, and they thought so too.
The cultivation world has actually been searching for the reason why the path to ascension has been cut off, but no one has been able to find it.
Now that they have clues, they will naturally look for the answers, and maybe they can find a solution.
