Bang bang bang~~
Chen Ku pondered for a mont before finally knocking on Qin Yuxian’s small courtyard door.
The door was opened by Qin Yuxian’s twelfth disciple, Feng Buping. Seeing Chen Ku, he was slightly surprised and said, "Isn’t this Scholar Chen? What brings you here so late?"
He had naturally heard about the words his respected teacher had said during the martial competition, about taking Chen Ku as a disciple on behalf of his master...
Now it could be said they were just waiting for Chen Ku to nod.
If this young man really nodded and agreed, he could instantly transform and beco the little master uncle to him and his twelve brothers, which would certainly feel awkward.
But he also deeply admired the achievents Chen Ku managed to attain in the Martial Arts Heaven and Earth.
"I have co to seek an audience with the grandmaster. Is the grandmaster here?" Chen Ku spoke.
"At this hour, the master is probably still awake. I’ll inform him for you." Feng Buping let Chen Ku wait outside while he went in to report.
Soon, the door opened, and Chen Ku entered the main hall.
Qin Yuxian stood inside the hall, watching Chen Ku’s arrival, and gestured to Feng Buping, saying, "Ping’er, you can go now."
Feng Buping thought to himself: "Could it be that he really wants to take him as our little master uncle?"
After sending away the disciple.
Qin Yuxian spoke with a slight hint of joy, saying, "The master uncle told you have cultivated the Huntian Overlord Body to the fourth level, which is indeed worthy of celebration."
"About those Five Elents Spiritual Items..." Chen Ku was still considering how to explain again to Qin Yuxian.
Qin Yuxian, however, had already waved it off, saying: "The many things you encountered in the Martial Arts Heaven and Earth have already exceeded the understanding of many. This matter doesn’t need detailed explanation to ."
He shared Shan Lingguan’s idea that as long as Chen Ku could benefit, how he got it was all Chen Ku’s ability. They were family and would not nitpick or doubt regardless.
Chen Ku took a deep breath and said: "Thank you for understanding, senior brother. But actually, this ti I ca because of a matter. I wonder if senior brother has ever heard of a person called ’True Void Ancestor’?"
He very much trusted the Transformation Diagram. It warned him that an expert of at least the Sixth Realm on the level of divine soul had set sights on him, and he couldn’t afford to be careless.
Especially since he didn’t understand much about divine soul cultivation.
Now that he already had the identity from the Imperial Enlightennt Sect, of course, he had to use it.
"True Void Ancestor?"
Qin Yuxian raised an eyebrow slightly and asked gravely:
"True Void Ancestor? This is one of the Four Great Guardian Gods of the Peace Path. How did you co to know of this person’s existence?"
"It is indeed the Peace Path!" Chen Ku had already been suspicious, and now he was completely certain. He explained to Qin Yuxian so of the dangerous feelings he perceived, saying: "Just tonight, I had a bout with Pei Qingzhi. After the encounter, I felt soone watching . I later accidentally learned this person’s na is True Void Ancestor. It seems he has his eyes on , so I ca to inquire about this person’s background. What exactly is he?"
Qin Yuxian didn’t delve into how Chen Ku got the na of True Void Ancestor.
After all, it was a big deal that he, the successor of the Imperial Enlightennt Sect, was targeted by the True Void Ancestor.
His expression turned serious as he said:
"I didn’t expect these evil gods to act so fast. Commander Ye Zhong just recently led troops to suppress demons and bandits, striking their stronghold and achieving considerable success, and now they infiltrate the county. It seems they’re planning so counterattack."
"Evil gods?" Chen Ku was slightly shocked: "Senior brother ans that the True Void Ancestor isn’t human? But an evil god? What does this an?"
He had only thought that the so-called True Void Ancestor was just a cultivator with divine soul techniques like City God Duan Mingbi, yet it turned out to be another form of life?
"Recently, the Prefecture City Sect had Ye Zhong lead a thousand from the Divine Machine Camp to Baojiao County to suppress demons. I am also a participant in this demon suppression campaign and know so of the insights from the frontline..."
Qin Yuxian slowly said:
"Based on the intelligence collected from the various defeated Peace Path subaltars in Baojiao County, gathered by Ye Zhong’s Divine Machine Camp, it can be concluded that the roots of Peace Path trace back to before the founding of the Ji Dynasty, to an organization calling itself the ’Yellow Heaven Divine Sect’.
And this Yellow Heaven Divine Sect, even earlier, traces back to a country called the ’Ancient Huang Country.’"
"A country?" Chen Ku was slightly surprised: "Such a huge background?"
"Those are ancient records. Nurous ancient states and tribes during those tis, eventually unified, but we’re digressing..."
Qin Yuxian carefully chose his words, slowly explaining:
"In short, this forr Ancient Huang Country worshiped a deity called the ’God of the Yellow Heaven’. This deity was not a being of the mortal world but hailed from beyond the heavens, described by their followers as coming from a place called the ’Heavenly Kingdom’ or ’True Void Hotown’. Mortal beings called them outer realm evil gods."
As Chen Ku listened to this description, he thought to himself, True Void Hotown? Sounds a bit like outer space, no wonder it’s called an outer realm evil god.
Qin Yuxian continued: "In the doctrines gathered by Ye Zhong, it is recorded that the Yellow Heaven Evil God had descended in the ancient tis. At the ti of descent, four servant gods accompanied it, one of which was the True Void Ancestor you’ve ntioned.
According to records, these four guardian gods are essentially creations of the Yellow Heaven Evil God. So even though they have appeared many tis in history and have been destroyed or sealed many tis, as long as the True Void Hotown exists, and the Yellow Heaven Evil God remains, they can be recreated from the True Void Hotown."
"Creator?" Chen Ku found it unbelievable and said, "Can the Yellow Heaven Evil God create life out of thin air, create life?"
"Don’t worry, the act of creation is not sothing difficult to achieve once one’s cultivation reaches the supre level.
In our Ji Dynasty, such thods are rarely practiced, but even so, in the Capital, there are many ’creations’ ford by the national destiny, suppressing places like Vermilion Bird Street, Xuanwu Gate, and the Heavenly Altar.
You could consider that Yellow Heaven Evil God as an evil being existing outside of our human world, in so special space like the ’Martial Arts Heaven and Earth.’
Perhaps due to fear of other supre beings in the human world, or due to certain restrictions, it cannot descend directly into the human world. Thus, it creates so ’subordinates’ to act as its spokespersons, secretly infiltrating the human world, expanding its faith and incense, preparing for its true arrival."
Qin Yu said:
"As for those four Dharma Protector Gods, they are all ’Yin souls’ with only Divine Soul thoughts. I guess this True Void Ancestor has taken a liking to your body and wants to possess you."
As he spoke, his eyes sparkled with a cold gleam.
The Yellow Heaven Cult, if in the Ancient Tis, might have been a formidable force, but through the passage of history, every ti they descend, they are strongly suppressed and killed by the current dynasty, resulting in the subsequent Protector Gods created by the Yellow Heaven Evil God getting weaker with each generation...
Although they’ve reappeared now, they only possess Sixth or Seventh Realm Divine Soul thods.
Daring to target the successors of the Imperial Enlightennt Sect.
Really don’t know how to spell the word ’death.’
Seeing Chen Ku’s eyes tense slightly at the ntion of ’possession.’
"Don’t worry, you have the token given to you by the Champion Marquis, capable of resisting three Divine Soul attacks from Sixth Realm experts."
Qin Yu retrieved a white feather from his storage bag in his sleeve and said:
"This is a Bird Feather Talisman made from the feather of the Qiu Dragon Mansion’s special demon, the ’Spirit Rhinoceros’ bird. If anything happens, crush this talisman, and I will sense it imdiately and co to your rescue."
Spirit Rhinoceros, isn’t that the strange beast ranked one hundred on the Exotic Beast List, which he first learned about when purchasing the Qiu Dragon Demon Record from Jiang Shaoyou.
"This... Thank you, Senior Brother."
Chen Ku accepted the Bird Feather Talisman.
But he still felt uneasy in his heart; no one’s protection could give him the assurance that his own power could provide.
So he softly asked:
"Senior brother, could you lend so money?"
"Need money? How much?"
Qin Yu was worried that after such a long ti, he hadn’t been able to offer Chen Ku any concrete help. Money, the simplest of matters, was not a problem at all.
Chen Ku silently calculated in his heart, his most urgent desire was to manifest the ’Flood Dragon Transformation’ of the Ancient Jiao Hou.
If he could bring forth this transformation,
not to ntion the Blowing Fur to Soldiers Divine Skills, it would essentially give him the confidence to face Sixth Realm experts directly.
Moreover, the ’Flood Dragon Talented’ that must outmatch the Hui Dragon can greatly enhance his qualifications and root bone.
To transform into a Flood Dragon, what’s missing are the bloodlines of descendants of the nine kinds of Ancient Divine Beasts—shrimp, deer, cow, dog, catfish, lion, eagle, fish, snake—for refining shape.
Next, a considerable amount of Five Realms Evil Qi is needed.
These are things that can be quickly amassed with money; as long as there is money, a list can be posted over at the Grey Clothes Tower, and there would be no worry about resources, even if Baojiao County lacks them, the Qiu Dragon Mansion certainly has them...
"Around one million taels should suffice." Chen Ku estimated.
"Only one million taels?" Qin Yu was surprised, "Is that enough?"
"It’s enough." Chen Ku felt a bit embarrassed already; if it weren’t for spending all his assets on upgrading the sixth Transformation Diagram, he wouldn’t be this broke now.
If ti allowed, he really wanted to slowly seek out six dragon-type items of the Five Realms, but with the crisis at hand, he could only try to gather a few dragon bloodline demons first and see if he could include the Hui Dragon Transformation to pile into a Flood Dragon.
"Here are two million taels." Qin Yu directly took out two million taels in silver notes and said, "Use it, and if there’s anything else you need, just tell Senior Brother."
For Qin Yu, spending money was truly a trifling matter. He hoped Chen Ku would ask him for more resources for cultivation, like pills; as long as he had them, he would not hesitate.
This was also why he and Master Uncle went to great lengths to create the Qiu Dragon Martial eting, just so that the disciples could grow in a sect with a background, heritage, and resources.
Unlike back in their day...
"Nothing else is needed." Chen Ku suddenly asked tentatively, "If I need Master and Senior Brother to accompany on a trip that might be dangerous, would you go?"
He was inclined to invite them to explore the Hero King Treasure with him.
