Zhang Yan sat cross-legged on a cushion, holding in his hand a White Jade Fruit about the size of a goose egg, resembling ice crystal. This was the White Moon Ying Fruit, just this one could provide him a year’s worth of cultivation.
Several days ago, he managed to refine seven in a single furnace, plus those manufactured previously, totaling ten fruits in hand.
Although this exceeded his initial expectations, it was only enough for ten years’ use. To reach the Nascent Soul Third Realm, it was still far from sufficient.
However, with these ten White Moon Ying Fruits, he need not be confined to this corner anymore and could venture outside in search, such as the Dragon Pillar eting, which was an excellent opportunity.
With a gentle flick of his finger, the White Moon Ying Fruit flew up and entered the Gang Cloud above his head. He then relaxed his limbs, silently operated his Mysterious Skill, and slowly extracted a wisp of Yin Hua Essence Qi. Under the motion of his Heart and Spirit, he brought forth a thread of Junyang Essence, rging them together and finally channeling them into the Nascent Soul.
After refining this wisp of Heaven and Earth Pure Spirit Essence Qi, he looked inward and saw that the Nascent Soul seed to be enveloped in a layer of golden haze, shimring with brilliance. The Essence Yuan Qi within his body not only grew stronger but also appeared purer and clearer than before.
He was secretly astonished because at this stage of Daoist Cultivation, every step forward was extrely difficult, and yet only by refining a strand of essence could he see such progress. No wonder this thod was the Zhou Clan’s secret heritage. He then steadied his Heart and Spirit and concentrated on refining.
This operation extended over several months, only ceasing after refining half of the White Moon Ying Fruit. He withdrew his skills, removed the prohibition, opened the cave doors, and stepped outside.
Jing You was dozing off to the side, and upon hearing footsteps, he hurriedly got up, rubbed his eyes, and bowed: "Greetings, Master."
Ascended the Jade Couch, sitting cross-legged, Zhang Yan asked, "Has there been anything important lately?"
Jing You hastily replied, "Indeed there is, Master. While you were in seclusion, Daoist Chu ca by multiple tis, and recently, along with Daoist Zhao, they waited outside the door daily. Yesterday they waited all night and only left a short while ago."
Although Zhang Yan was in seclusion, if there were incidents in the sect, the gong could be struck. Since Chu Muran hadn’t done so, it likely wasn’t anything too urgent. He imdiately issued a command: "Bring them back."
Jing You imdiately chased out of the cave, and after about the ti for a cup of tea, Chu and Zhao entered one after the other, and upon seeing Zhang Yan, hurriedly approached to greet him.
Chu Muran exhaled a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "I’m glad you’ve co out of seclusion, Senior Brother."
Zhang Yan smiled and asked, "What happened in the sect that caused such anxiety, Junior Brother?"
Chu Muran clasped his hands and said, "Senior Brother, I almost forgot a major event. In a few months, it will be East Shengzhou’s Tide God Festival. At that ti, a vortex in the Beimo Sea Realm will form, and the sea water will surge like a flood upon the land, ravaging the mountains and plains. This happens every four hundred years and only recedes after half a month. Hence, we wish to seek the Sect Leader’s decree to relocate various sects into East Divine House Mountain to avoid disaster."
Zhang Yan imdiately sensed sothing amiss and asked sternly, "Given it’s a mariti incident, why wasn’t this ntioned before, and why haven’t we been inford of it?"
Chu Muran sighed and said, "In the past, Xianluo Sect followed Zhongtai’s command to guard the sea vortex. Every ti this disaster occurred, more than twenty Nascent Soul Elders went to quell it with a secret treasure, preventing a tsunami. This sect’s dominance over the western and northern sea territories was closely tied to Zhongtai. However, since the Outer Continent’s Python Clan took over that place, the immortal city has been ineffective, presumably no longer doing this, so prevention is necessary."
Zhang Yan pondered briefly and said, "Junior Brother Chu, do you think the Python Clan knows of this matter?"
Zhao Ge then spoke: "The Python Clan has been here only a hundred years; if Xianluo City intended to conceal it, they probably do not know."
Zhang Yan nodded; this is indeed likely. Xianluo Sect probably wants the Python Clan to suffer silently, and Zhongtai Sect is aware yet has not sent any information, probably planning accordingly.
However, the Python Clan has Cave Heaven True Masters stationed, so avoiding this calamity shouldn’t be difficult. But Divine House Mountain is affected, and such trendous natural power is hard to predict. Even if he and Ren Si join forces, along with the Great Array and Zhang and Song, they might withstand it. Having not seen the tidal force, he dare not predict lightly; thus, preparing in advance is necessary. Therefore, he said, "This matter must proceed, but attention is needed. Not only our cultivation sects, but also the mountain dwellers must relocate. Command each sect to handle it diligently. Junior Brother Chu, Junior Brother Zhao, you two are to watch over them to prevent them from feigning compliance and escaping only for themselves."
