"You are allowed to consider for a few hours before replying."
"If you do not co to the Red Leaf Hall for consultation before dawn, the master will take it as your refusal of this transaction."
"Take care of yourself!"
After saying this, the Evil Consort did not care about Qin Wuxiang's reaction.
Turning around with extre pride, she swayed her body full of sensual allure, walking away into the distance.
Qin Wuxiang did not try to retain her; he closed the room door, turned around, and sat down in ditation to ponder deeply.
The first thought that ca to him made him chuckle inwardly, "Good play, Han Xiao, conspiring with Yang Cang and Jia Sanyuan, you've oppressed and belittled for so many days, all to subdue ?"
After his laughter, Qin Wuxiang ca to a realization.
"It actually makes sense. The forr Qin Wuxiang, with Cavernous Mystery cultivation, a child of the Alchemist, and even had a ntor from the Ultimate Happiness Realm, nearly succeeded in Southern Yue with his sches and Divine Skills... Indeed, he appears to be soone worth pulling in, bound to be greatly useful."
"Due to the giant calamity caused by Yang Sui, the lineage of Alchemist Zhu's family perished. My ntor, although not nad Zhu, married a daughter from the Zhu family, and chose death to protect his wife and children till the end, perishing together. With no one to rely on, and repeatedly failing, coupled with the backlash of being an illegitimate child of the Qin Family, my status within the Alchemist circle plumted."
"Han Xiao, this individual, has stronger cultivation and family background than , but in terms of scheming and strategizing, he's inferior. By oppressing and then recruiting in such a way, he likely wishes for to beco his military advisor?"
"The original Qin Wuxiang would not only refuse to comply, but would also be so outraged that he'd plot murder."
"The current Qin Wuxiang, however, is different."
When his thoughts reached this point, Qin Wuxiang gave a radiant smile and stood up straight away.
Adjusting his attire, he thought cheerfully:
"I was previously concerned about being driven away from the core of the Alchemists and not being able to hear any key secrets, unable to atone for my sins."
"Yet, as I was worrying about it, an opportunity ca knocking."
"Exceedingly marvelous!"
"People say that Daoist Tao is a man of extraordinary fortune. I've just been enlightened by him and this twist of fate has presented itself, confirming the truth of that statent."
With his final thought settling, Qin Wuxiang opened the room door.
Without any hesitation, he turned around the pavilion's corridors and went straight to the sumptuous and strict Red Leaf Hall.
...
While Qin Wuxiang resolved to bear the humiliation and serve as a military advisor for the legitimate son of the Han Family, Han Xiao, also a Saint Heir.
Inside the Demon Trap Pit, Tao Qian was counting the blessings he received after listening to the scripture.
Despite a minor interlude, where he used the Toad God Tile to smash a three-eyed creature, it didn't affect his excellent mood at all.
His eager eyes were fixed on the Buddha Bird Relic in front of him, which seed to have undergone another transformation.
If it weren't for being in the wrong territory and wearing the mantle of the Secret of the Toad Sect, Tao Qian would already be seeking a secluded place to ld with the relic, summoning Buddha Bird Protectors from all corners and indulging in the thrill of being a violent monk.
"At first, with my mana and Buddhist Law cultivation, I was limited to summoning only one of the ten Buddha Birds."
"Because the Sky-Supporting Ancient Ape was the most useful, I chose it every ti."
"Now, with all my power, I can simultaneously summon at least five Buddha Birds. It's not just because my cultivation has increased, but also because of the benefits from listening to the scripture just now: I absorbed the Buddha Rhy, touched the Buddha Light, it couldn't be more perfect."
"Imagine, if I could summon at least five Buddha Bird Protectors at the sa ti, including the Sky-Supporting Ancient Ape, Six-Tusked White Elephant, Heavenly Plague Golden Bull, and so on, could I fight against Mr. Zhong Daoist's 160,000 Yin-Yang Micro Dust Needles and not co off worse?"
"Certainly, I could even gain so advantage."
"Among my peers in the Cavernous Mystery Realm, perhaps I can already be ranked in the forefront, only Xuu Xun, my senior brother, or Daoist Wang Chan from Taishang Dao, could fight evenly with ?"
Having gained no small benefits, Tao Qian felt a hint of expansion.
Muttering to himself, he was just short of saying the line "I am invincible among my equals, it is rather lonely."
Master Yuan, who was secretly listening, imdiately drifted forward upon seeing this.
He first nodded, agreeing with Tao Qian's conclusion, then with a solemn expression, he taught:
"Youngster, just in terms of killing power, to say that you are unmatched among your peers is not arrogance; in fact, it could be considered modest."
"Indeed, only existences like Xuu Xun and Wang Chan can fight with you at the mont."
"In a few days, once you step into the Cavernous Mystery Realm, because you possess treasures like the Buddha Bird Relic, Nine Toad Pearl, Holy Embryo Bag, Toad God Tile, along with the Spirit Treasure Subli Body and that imnse, unreasonable mana, if you genuinely engage in a life-and-death struggle, even these two may not be your match."
"Reality is such, but if you truly believe this idea, disaster is not far, and your perishing or falling from the Dao might just happen soday."
"Previously, I couldn't be counted as your ntor, hence I did not say much."
"Now that I've taken you as my disciple, I must speak."
"In my eyes, you're hardly what one would call a 'Cultivator,' boy."
"Know that a true Cultivator must possess their own Dao."
"Though many Seekers of the Dao throughout history have died along the way, much like this early-departed spirit here, at least they died knowing where their Dao lay."
"And you, despite having a strategic mind, so ambitions, and having earned great achievents and treasures of Cultivation by your own efforts, along with the Human Dao Destiny that many envy... but you know that most of the ti, you are rely going along with the flow."
"I, the Old Ape, can't predict as well as Duobao, but after following you for so many days, I can make certain statents about your future."
"In the coming months and years, you might enter the Cavernous Mystery Realm or reach Ultimate Happiness, but unless you find your own Dao, you will never enter the Daoist Transformation Realm."
"Without achieving Daoist Transformation, you will die."
"If you retreat back to Penglai Sea and diligently cultivate, you could live a few hundred years in peace, enjoying the bliss of longevity."
"If you continue to struggle in the mortal world, your end might very well be like Master Wuxiang Qin Jiao's, destined to beco an Absolute Immortal sooner or later."
With the last statent, Yuan Gong fell silent.
The red mist dissipated, and his spirit returned to the statue.
Tao Qian, who had just been reprimanded, showed no anger on his face.
On the contrary, it was as if countless bolts of thunder had struck his mind, rumbling continuously, and nurous chaotic thoughts surged forth.
At this mont, Tao Qian thought of a great many things; however, there was no mont of "sudden insight," nor did he imdiately find what he might call his own Dao.
Still, there was a gain.
Tao Qian seed to have realized sothing, not only dispelling those bloated thoughts but also vaguely concluding sothing in his heart.
He stood up straight, took out the Yuan Gong statue, and placed it respectfully at the head.
He bowed deeply and respectfully said,
"Master Yuan's teachings, I will keep them in my heart."
"After settling the matters here, I will reflect earnestly on the whereabouts of the Dao."
"Cultivation is fraught with dangers; thanks to Master Yuan's protection by my side, it is apparent that my fortune is truly not small."
No sooner had Tao Qian finished speaking than the statue trembled, and Yuan Gong's voice ca from within once again.
"Pah, don't play the fool; all this affected piety and platitudes, you'll be fine as long as you are resolute."
Hearing this, Tao Qian smiled and reached out to take the statue back.
Seeing that it was still early, he turned around and sat down to continue cultivating the "Scripture of Salvation."
And just at this mont, Tao Qian felt sothing.
He raised his hand to release the prohibition, and imdiately saw several Demon heads he had previously given to Qin Wuxiang coming toward him.
Several strands of Demon Thought were read in an instant.
The next mont, Tao Qian's face underwent a sudden change, as he had not expected that in such a short ti, Qin Wuxiang would send such detailed intelligence, which included updates on Little Age, Lian Jing'er, Shan Jiu, and Yunrong.
"Internal strife within the Seven Evil Sects... prisoners in the Evil Cave... the Ten Thousand Spirit Demon Machine... slaughtering the city for Alchemy..."
"Not good, New Moon is in peril."
After digesting the information, Tao Qian imdiately took action.
He summoned the spirit ghost A Cuo, who was under Lin Bujue's command, using a secret technique and shared this confidential information with him.
He also had Lin Bujue, in his na, notify the entire Ancestor Dragon Society.
Such a critical matter, naturally, was not sothing Tao Qian, Zhong Ziyang, Chen Xiyi, and the ten others could shoulder privately.
Indeed, it was not long before,
Even from within the Demon Trap Pit, Tao Qian could faintly hear the grand bells tolling from Hidden Dragon Mountain.
Before much ti passed, Wei Ziyuan, the Lustful Charm, hurriedly rushed back to the Demon Trap Pit.
As soon as she entered the restricted area, she called out loudly to Tao Qian and the various Flag Officers and Food Delivery Officers,
"Gentlen!"
"Hurry back to Hidden Dragon Mountain."
"There is an order from the Ancestor Dragon, all mbers of the Society are to attack Shangyang City together tomorrow, exterminate the Evil Demons, and recapture New Moon."
