#764: Great Change
In the following days, ng Zhang and Xu ngying stayed in this place, healing at their own pace. After the battle, their relationship grew much closer, and they developed a lot more trust in each other than before. Consequently, they felt more at ease in seeking each other's help for their respective recoveries. The effectiveness of healing, with or without external assistance, varied greatly for both of them. Especially in ng Zhang's case, the power of the Slaughter Grand Dao and the Earth Grand Dao wreaked havoc inside him. It would have taken him an unknown amount of ti to expel these forces on his own.
Having Xu ngying, also a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, aiding him from the outside made it possible to combine their efforts and drive out the foreign forces within ng Zhang's body. This significantly increased the efficiency of ng Zhang's healing process.
Of course, not only did ng Zhang need Xu ngying's assistance, but Xu ngying also benefited from him. True Monarch Mountain Peak had fought desperately before his death, and Xu ngying, as his most despised and hated target, bore the brunt of his attacks. She, too, suffered from injuries caused by the Earth Grand Dao's power.
Once ng Zhang's injuries stabilized sowhat, he helped Xu ngying to expel those external forces from her body. During their healing, they also engaged in discussions about the challenges they encountered in their cultivation.
Before this encounter, Xu ngying had waited in Taiyi Sect for quite so ti, and she had so interactions with ng Zhang. However, at that ti, they both lacked sufficient trust and held back information. The focus of their communication was mainly on how to coordinate their actions and confront True Monarch Mountain Peak.
Now, while healing, they discussed matters related to their individual cultivation. ng Zhang possessed the inheritance scriptures left by Taiyi Sect's ancestors, so he had a wealth of theoretical knowledge but lacked guidance from predecessors. Many tis, he had to explore and progress on his own.
Yellow Lotus Sect's heritage was not as rich as Taiyi Sect's during its pri, but it still had a complete lineage of cultivation, having produced so Primordial Spirit True Monarchs. As the Saintess of Yellow Lotus Sect, Xu ngying enjoyed the best cultivation conditions from a young age, including personal guidance from senior True Monarchs. Having received hands-on guidance and teachings from experienced practitioners, she benefited greatly, gaining precious experiences and insights that couldn't be learned from books.
ng Zhang and Xu ngying let down their guards and engaged in deep communication. They both benefited imnsely from each other, learning a lot and complenting each other's weaknesses. Despite their injuries, they felt ntally relaxed. The gains they obtained from each other would have a significant promoting effect on their future cultivation.
This place was naturally remote and scarcely disturbed by outsiders. Occasionally, a few unwise cloud beasts ca by, but they were easily driven away by the duo. After being frightened off by Marshal Zhao, the beast with Primordial Spirit-level combat strength had not returned to this place.
In this relatively peaceful place, ng Zhang and Xu ngying could concentrate and ditate on their respective gains. Both of them advanced to the Primordial Spirit realm through orthodox cultivation thods. They thoroughly studied Dao scriptures, comprehended Dao teachings, and slowly grasped the power of the Grand Dao, making steady progress and breakthroughs.
Though this type of cultivation might be a bit slower and lacked thrilling twists, its foundation was solid, and their future prospects were promising, ensuring they could go even further. In contrast, those cultivators who sought shortcuts to advance to the Primordial Spirit realm might spend much more ti trying to compensate for the flaws left behind in their hasty progress.
During their ti here, ng Zhang lived leisurely. Apart from daily routines, he spent his ti exchanging ideas with fellow daoist Xu ngying. He seed to have forgotten everything about Taiyi Sect and the tense situation Jiuqu League was facing.
Xu ngying's situation was sowhat similar. After the death of True Monarch Mountain Peak, she should have hurried back to Yellow Lotus Sect to take advantage of the opportunity to unify the sect and gather its strength while it was leaderless. However, her delay here had wasted a golden opportunity.
Of course, their peaceful days didn't last long as they were abruptly interrupted by an external force. On that day, after they finished ditating and healing, they were discussing profound matters as usual when suddenly, in the distance, ca a series of thunderous explosions.
Their interrupted discussion left them both displeased. As the explosions drew nearer, they couldn't ignore the situation.
ng Zhang remained seated in place, activating his Divine Ability, Deception Breaking Eye, to look in the direction of the sound. Since advancing to the Primordial Spirit realm, his Deception Breaking Eye had also improved, becoming more powerful and mystical.
Back in the Gold Core realm, ng Zhang's Deception Breaking Eye was restricted within the Nine Heavens. But now, he could look far and wide, and various scenes from afar ca into his view. With just a few glances, his expression changed drastically, and he stood up in shock.
Xu ngying, who was not paying much attention at first, saw ng Zhang's expression and knew sothing was wrong. She also used a secret technique to observe the distance, and her expression changed drastically as well. ng Zhang and Xu ngying exchanged a glance, and the rapport they had established during this ti allowed them to understand each other's thoughts.
Both felt the urge to retreat and avoid the impending trouble. However, they realized it was too late to react. By the ti they noticed the situation in the distance, the people over there had already spotted them without any concealnt.
"Sect Master ng, please lend a hand," ca a booming voice, and He LuoTrue Monarch, who they hadn't seen in a long ti, flew toward ng Zhang like a gust of wind. He LuoTrue Monarch was not alone; beside him was the Primordial Spirit of Azure Origin Sect's True Monarch Azure Mist.
It seed Azure Mist's physical body had encountered problems, leaving only the Primordial Spirit fleeing with He LuoTrue Monarch. In pursuit behind them were people that ng Zhang recognized—Dali Dynasty's envoy, Wen DongTrue Monarch, and the undercover True Monarch Crossing Blade from Jiuqu League.
Wen DongTrue Monarch and True Monarch Crossing Blade were hot on their heels, determined to completely capture He LuoTrue Monarch and True Monarch Azure Mist.
Although ng Zhang had unpleasant experiences with He LuoTrue Monarch and even had fierce battles with him before, and True Monarch Azure Mist belonged to an opposing faction, they should understand the importance of standing together when facing Dali Dynasty. Despite the fact that they were once allies in Jiuqu League and the principle of lips and teeth being interdependent, ng Zhang knew where he should stand.
If He LuoTrue Monarch and the others hadn't seen ng Zhang, he could have just turned and left, and it wouldn't matter. But now that they had noticed him and He LuoTrue Monarch had set aside his pride to seek his help, ng Zhang couldn't simply ignore it and walk away.
Seeing ng Zhang decide to stay, Xu ngying naturally wouldn't flee in the face of danger either. However, facing such strong enemies made her feel nervous.
