In fact, speaking of it, he was clearer about Leiyin Temple, which was ultimately not a friend.
However, the attitude of the Turquoise Pool... he found it confusing instead.
The Turquoise Pool has always been the most mysterious sect among the Four Sects.
This sect seed to consist entirely of female cultivators and rarely interacted with the outside world unless it was a significant event in Xuanwei.
But there’s one thing that Zheng Fa rembers vividly:
The pillar industry of the Turquoise Pool seems to clash with Jiushan Sect—they excel in cultivating various spirit plants.
However, there’s not much trade conflict between the two:
On one hand, Jiushan Sect barely has enough spirit plants to et internal demand and hasn’t considered exporting, not even in the short term.
On the other hand, both sects have their own specialties in spirit plants that don’t overlap much, with significant differences in variety.
Plus, the Turquoise Pool is sowhat self-sufficient, and the two sects are far apart, so they coexist peacefully.
The problem is, their attitude toward Jiushan Sect hints at so underlying conflict.
This Primordial Monarch Ni Chang traveled thousands of miles to visit, seemingly in goodwill, and even if it’s not goodwill, it’s at least a gesture of friendliness.
But previously Jiushan Sect disciples received the cold shoulder at the Turquoise Pool... it’s quite fickle.
He glanced at Zhang and nodded slightly to indicate he understood, suddenly feeling a movent in his heart as he gazed into the distance.
In the distant skyline, spots of colorful light suddenly appeared, densely packed.
After a mont, Zheng Fa could see what these spots of light were—they were all spiritual birds.
Dozens of various birds rose from the sea surface, colorful and diverse.
Peacocks and white cranes side by side, magpies and thrushes accompanying, their colorful tail feathers swaying in the blue sea and sky like rainbows.
Zheng Fa and Zhang soared up to et the disciples of the Turquoise Pool.
Even from a hundred miles away, Zheng Fa slled a strange fragrance that made his divine soul sway.
Looking up, he saw a female Immortal clad in a Treasure Robe like rainbow-colored clouds, her visage glowing with a golden hue, an embodint of both majesty and beauty.
eting her gaze, Zheng Fa felt an endless admiration and joy, almost wanting to kneel and bow in obeisance.
Within him, in his Yellow Court, the Creation Jade Disc trembled slightly, sending forth a cool sensation that surged into his mind.
In an instant, Zheng Fa’s eyes cleared, yet his heart remained stirred: This Lord Ni Chang seemingly didn’t practice any Bewitching Technique, yet was more irresistible than the Demon Sect’s Charm Technique—even the Yin Yang Jade Pendant in his mind didn’t react. Were it not for his cultivation of the Yellow Court Scripture, he might have shown so disgraceful behavior.
Seeing Zheng Fa sober up so quickly, a flash of surprise crossed Lord Ni Chang’s beautiful eyes. She lightly tapped the crane’s back and landed before Zheng Fa in the blink of an eye, bowing first: "Alliance Leader Zheng, I’ve long admired you."
Zheng Fa cupped his hands and spoke: "I have seen the Primordial Monarch, are these Immortals all esteed disciples of your sect?"
Lord Ni Chang smiled and nodded: "They are accompanying to the Tianhe Sect to set up a formation."
Zheng Fa glanced roughly and saw she had brought over thirty disciples, among them over ten in Divinity Transformation and nearly twenty in Nascent Soul, giving him a new estimate of the Turquoise Pool’s strength.
After exchanging greetings, Lord Ni Chang seed a bit anxious and said upon eting:
"I heard from the Supre Dao that you have cultivated the Cave Heaven Technique?"
Zheng Fa had nothing to hide and nodded in agreent.
"Our Turquoise Pool has so insights in the cultivation of the Divine Dao. The Supre Dao has entrusted to co and discuss the essentials of Divine Dao cultivation with you this ti."
Zheng Fa was taken aback.
He had speculated on so of Lord Ni Chang’s intentions, yet...
"Doist Li said it was the Primordial Monarch who requested the visit and asked him to notify first."
Lord Ni Chang was montarily baffled too but then suddenly laughed: "It might be due to Xuanding."
"True Immortal Xuanding?"
"He probably didn’t ntion it."
Zheng Fa secretly muttered, could it be that Ancestor Xuanding is also forgetful?
Lord Ni Chang seed to read his thoughts and shook her head, explaining: "He probably thought it was better for to speak, no need to ntion it twice, so as not to waste words with Doist Li."
This group from the Supre Dao, what’s wrong with them?
...
As for the so-called exchange, Zheng Fa had a good idea:
In the cultivation of the Divine Dao Skill, he was but an elentary student, while the Turquoise Pool was practically an academic powerhouse.
When they politely called it an exchange, he naturally couldn’t take it seriously.
He welcod the Turquoise Pool group into the Jiushan Realm, smiling to Lord Ni Chang and the others:
"I have prepared a guest house, I hope the Primordial Monarch doesn’t mind our sect’s simplicity."
To his surprise, Lord Ni Chang paused, looked at Zheng Fa, and said:
"The guest house won’t be necessary."
Zheng Fa was startled, and then he heard Lord Ni Chang say: "The matter at Tianhe is urgent, and I don’t have much ti to waste."
Such urgency left Zheng Fa montarily speechless.
Lord Ni Chang seed truly eager to leave quickly, asking: "How long have you been cultivating the Cave Heaven Technique?"
Zheng Fa pondered and replied: "Eight years."
Upon hearing this, Lord Ni Chang said: "Then the ti is still short, so it’s simple. You only need to know so entry-level taboos, so today I’ll teach you the basics, and if you have any questions later, you can write to ."
Her expression was very confident, the kind of certainty of a university student encountering elentary mathematics problems, yet Lord Ni Chang was still responsible, adding:
"I’ll take a look at the Cave Heaven Treasure in your Jiushan Realm first, then discuss other matters."
Zheng Fa was surprised at her decisiveness but understood that Lord Ni Chang was probably compelled by the favor from the Supre Dao to co.
Clearly, this Lord Ni Chang didn’t hold him in the sa regard as the Supre Dao did.
Honestly, Zheng Fa felt a bit relieved.
The regard of these people could indeed be considered a good thing.
But it didn’t quite align with his intentions—he just wanted to develop quietly when no one was paying attention, but regrettably, his strength didn’t allow it.
Hearing Lord Ni Chang’s requirents, Zheng Fa led the Turquoise Pool Immortals toward the dicine Garden, and before descending the Rainbow Bridge, Lord Ni Chang paused, looking at the power of incense in the dicine Garden.
