Cultivation Begins From The Desert Chapter 368 - 353: Master Cyan Yang’s True Purpose [Request

Profound Sun Immortal Sect, within a secret palace located in the belly of the mountain.

While Zhouyang was vanquishing demons in the "Sealed Demon Cave," Master Cyan Yang left his cultivation cave on Profound Sun Peak and arrived here.

In the entire Profound Sun Immortal Sect, no more than ten people know about this place; it is the most of the most secretive.

Furthermore, out of the nine Nascent Soul Stage cultivators of the Profound Sun Immortal Sect, there is always one whose true body resides here.

Currently, it is not the ti for Master Cyan Yang to be residing here, so when he arrived, Supre Elder Master Yuhua of the Profound Sun Immortal Sect was quite surprised.

"Junior Brother Cyan Yang, what brings you here unexpectedly?"

Inside the secret palace, Master Yuhua, with white hair and beard, clothed in a black and white Tai Chi Daoist robe, rose up and looked with astonishnt at the suddenly arriving Master Cyan Yang, inquiring about his purpose.

"Senior Brother Yuhua, I have co to see the condition of the True Magical Body, and I hope Senior Brother can assist in activating the Treasure Mirror for a look!"

Master Cyan Yang bowed to Master Yuhua, and without beating around the bush, stated his purpose directly.

Upon hearing the words "True Magical Body," Master Yuhua’s expression shifted slightly, and he furrowed his brows, looking at Master Cyan Yang, saying, "Why have you suddenly thought of this out of nowhere? Has sothing happened?"

"It is not too late to discuss this after Senior Brother Yuhua activates the Treasure Mirror to clarify the situation."

Master Cyan Yang slightly shook his head but refused to elaborate.

Seeing this, Master Yuhua pondered briefly, then nodded and said, "Very well, since you’ve said so, Junior Brother, I will accompany you for a look."

After speaking, he waved his hand, casting a spell towards the hall’s wall behind him. The wall then undulated like ripples, revealing a massive crystal hanging mirror, about ten feet tall and five feet wide.

"Profound Clarity Infinity, Mirror Illuminate the Universe, Activate!"

Master Yuhua uttered a low incantation, casting a series of spells upon the crystal hanging mirror.

Imdiately, a soul-stirring scene appeared on the mirror’s surface.

It was an underground altar of unknown location, surrounded by thirty-six dragon and phoenix carved silver-white pillars, each over a hundred feet tall.

The thirty-six silver-white pillars encircled the altar, and from each pillar extended a silver-white chain as thick as a man’s waist, one end connected to a pillar and the other end locked onto a massive beast lying on the altar.

It was a giant creature resembling a rhinoceros, with a body length of two to three hundred feet, lying on the ground, nearly forty feet high.

This creature had a head without a tail, horns without hair, covered in scale armor, with six legs, a boar-like mouth, and exposed tusks. Even with its eyes closed and lying there, a overwhelming aura naturally spread from its body.

"Every ti I see the True Magical Body of this Heaven-Sundering True Demon, I feel deep respect for those predecessors who suppressed it. If not for the unyielding spirit and self-sacrifice of many predecessors in setting up the Celestial Spirit Demon Suppression Array to seal it, our Cultivation Realm would have long been turned into a Demon Realm by this fiend!"

Master Cyan Yang gazed at the image on the crystal mirror with awe, his face full of admiration.

"Indeed, this fiend faked death to deceive the Lower Realm True Immortal, then wreaked havoc when the channels between the two realms were closed, devouring more than ten Nascent Soul cultivators consecutively, with no one able to curb its ferocity."

"Fortunately, at that ti, Master Yan Hua had not yet passed away. Under his leadership, all Nascent Soul Stage cultivators of the Liuyun Continent Cultivation Realm united to battle this demon, ultimately succeeding in setting up the Celestial Spirit Demon Suppression Array to suppress it within the Do Heaven Immortal Realm!"

Master Yuhua followed Master Cyan Yang’s words, and also looked at the scene within the crystal mirror with a face full of gratitude and relief.

Master Cyan Yang, upon hearing this, shook his head with a sigh and said, "But even Senior Yan Hua couldn’t truly kill this fiend and could only seal it away. As long as this fiend is not eliminated, there is always the possibility of it breaking free from its seal!"

"More importantly, to seal this fiend, we had to close off the Do Heaven Immortal Realm to prevent external Demon Cultivators from learning of this and rescuing the fiend."

"However, with the Do Heaven Immortal Realm closed, the Nascent Soul Stage cultivators of the Liuyun Continent Cultivation Realm are essentially cut off from the path to immortality. Even Grand Elders of the Ninth-Layer Nascent Soul like this can only travel to distant lands in search of a chance for Crossing the Tribulation to beco immortals!"

"Junior Brother Cyan Yang, what’s wrong with you? You’ve only ford your Nascent Soul for a few decades; this isn’t sothing you should be worrying about, is it?" Master Yuhua looked at Master Cyan Yang with a strange expression, full of suspicion.

"Senior Brother Yuhua, your questions are well-founded. I ca today precisely to talk to you about this!"

Master Cyan Yang nodded slightly and then recounted how he discovered that Zhouyang possessed the "Qianyang Treasure Body" and how he supported and nurtured Zhouyang along the way.

"So that’s how it is! So that’s how it is!"

"So, Junior Brother Cyan Yang, you’ve co today to see whether this demon is still connected to the Sealed Demon Cave?"

Master Yuhua’s eyes flashed with realization, showing interest, and he, together with Master Cyan Yang, turned their gaze towards the crystal mirror.

"Exactly, that Demon Realm Grotto Heaven was opened by this demon after all. Although it’s currently sealed, I guess it can still sense what’s happening inside the Demon Realm Grotto Heaven."

"I just want to see if it will have an excessive reaction upon sensing the ergence of the Qianyang True Fla!"

Master Cyan Yang tightly watched the image of the demon in the mirror, unwilling to miss any slight changes in it.

Master Yuhua continued his words, muttering to himself, "Qianyang True Fla is supre yang, listed alongside Pure Yang True Fla, Profound Yang True Fla, and Vermilion Bird True Fla as the Demon Refining Fire. If its great success divine techniques can truly be deployed to refine this demon, perhaps it can completely obliterate it in one strike!"

"If this demon can be refined and the Do Heaven Immortal Realm reopened, the Grand Elder might truly enter before his lifespan runs out and strive heroically!"

As he spoke to this point, even his temperant cultivated over 2,000 years could not stop his face from revealing a hint of fervor.

The Grand Elder of the Profound Sun Immortal Sect possesses Ninth-Layer Nascent Soul Cultivation, truly a ’Half-Step True Immortal.’

If his cultivation can advance further to beco a Tribulation Crossing True Immortal, then the Profound Sun Immortal Sect will truly beco the top major sect in the Liuyun Continent Cultivation Realm, accomplishing a feat unachieved by all predecessors of the Profound Sun Immortal Sect for tens of thousands of years!

Now it is clear the purpose of Master Cyan Yang’s substantial investnt in cultivating Zhouyang.

To spend ti and resources that are not important to him nurturing a junior cultivator without even Golden Core Stage cultivation, yet possibly yielding a Tribulation Crossing True Immortal for the sect, opening a path to higher realms for all Nascent Soul Stage cultivators and himself—no matter how it’s computed, it is a hugely profitable deal!

And if Zhouyang is to risk his life in helping them overco and refine demons, how can small favors and benefits make him willing?

Thus, the care Master Cyan Yang has given Zhouyang over the years, treating him like a disciple or descendant, is entirely explainable.

"If you wish to take, first you must give," this principle is perfectly understood by Master Cyan Yang as a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator.

At this mont, hearing Master Yuhua’s murmurings, Master Cyan Yang smiled lightly but did not respond, yet his attitude already said it all.

Seeing this, an eager look flashed across Master Yuhua’s face, which he quickly cald, joining Master Cyan Yang in observing the situation within the crystal mirror.

After an unknown period of ti, the enormous body of the demon within the crystal mirror suddenly quivered gently, followed by thick ink-like black demonic qi bursting out of the cracks between its scale armor, as if this giant beast was waking up.

But at this mont, the thirty-six silver-white chains binding the demon’s beast body suddenly shone with dazzling silver light, enveloping the demon beast entirely.

Under the scorching of this silver light, the thick demonic qi erging from the demon beast was instantly purified completely, even the hard scale armor on the demon beast’s body rged and tightened to block the gaps, fearing this silver light might penetrate the scale armor to attack the body within.

From start to end, until the silver light dispersed, the head of the demon’s beast, lying on the ground, did not show any signs of lifting, as though all movents were rely subconscious actions of its body.

Master Cyan Yang and Master Yuhua, the two Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, exchanged a glance after witnessing this scene, seeing worry in each other’s eyes.

Then Master Yuhua waved his broad sleeve, turning off the image on the crystal mirror artifact, restoring everything to its original state.

Having completed this, he looked at Master Cyan Yang and spoke:

"It seems the sect ancestors’ deduction was correct. Although this Heaven-Sundering True Demon was sealed by the Celestial Spirit Demon Suppression Array and further restrained by Senior Master Yan Hua with immortal secret techniques and the immortal treasure, the Celestial Dragon Soul-Sealing Seal, its connection with the Sealed Demon Cave has not been completely severed!"

"This ti it clearly sensed the presence of Qianyang True Fla within the seal and instinctively leaked power, seeking to destroy this threat!"

Master Cyan Yang nodded after hearing Master Yuhua’s words, saying, "Indeed, that’s why I sent that kid to the Sealed Demon Cave."

"While this action might alert the snake, it helps confirm whether our plan is feasible and whether we should increase investnt in that kid."

"Now it seems everything is as the elders predicted; Qianyang True Fla is indeed the nesis of that demon, and our plan’s success is highly likely!"

Having said this, he smiled briefly and raised his hand towards Master Yuhua, saying, "Now that the speculation is confird, I will take my leave first, leaving it to Senior Brother to continue monitoring here."
