"Uh-huh!"
Zhang Yao stretched out his hand and took out the letter and brocade box.
He first put the brocade box aside, took out the letter, and felt the familiar magic mark on the seal, confirming that it was written by Master Haihe.
"I have practiced hard in a secret realm for more than seventy years, and it is rare that my old friend is still alive."
Zhang Yao was still in a good mood.
He didn't have many friends in Dali back then. They were basically the GCC group. After so many years, they are probably all dead.
Apart from Zhenren Haihe, who was promoted to the Golden Core stage, probably only Fairy Yuanmeng, a demon cultivator, might still be alive.
"Click!"
Zhang Yao ran his fingers over it, breaking the magic seal on the seal, and took out the letter.
In the letter written by Master Haihe, he congratulated Zhang Yao on his promotion to the realm of golden elixir. He talked about the old feelings from the past and said that he was too busy with trivial matters to come in person.
It can be seen from the tone of the writing that Master Haihe is very happy to hear the news that Zhang Yao has been promoted to the realm of golden elixir.
In the letter, he also recounted his own experiences over the years.
After Fu Haizong's mountain gate wandered to Dayu Sea, it was closed for nearly twenty years. It was not until he successfully broke through to the Golden Core stage that he reopened it.
After Master Haihe was promoted to Jindan, Patriarch Wanchuan passed away within two years. He shouldered a huge burden and led the Fuhai Sect to establish a firm foothold and spread its branches in the world of Dayu Cultivation.
At the end of the letter, Master Haihe also said that he had specially prepared a gift for him, which he would definitely like, but he just kept it secret and did not say clearly what it was.
"This is quite interesting..."
Zhang Yao was a little curious, so he took the brocade box aside, broke the restrictions and opened it.
Inside the brocade box, on the light golden velvet cloth, there is a piece of light cyan metal ore, faintly shining with cyan light.
"This is... Wind-breathing orichalcum?!"
Zhang Yao recognized him at a glance and couldn't help being surprised.
He didn't expect that he would get a piece of Fengxi Orichalcum from the hands of Master Haihe, but he had not yet achieved any results with the help of the power of Dali's Immortal Cultivation World.
"Yes, this is indeed Fengxi orichalcum, and it's in very good condition."
Zhang Yao took out the light cyan metal ore, carefully identified it, and then put it away with satisfaction.
Wind's Breath Orichalcum is a rare treasure from heaven and earth. It is usually found at the core of the 'Wind's Breath Jade' mineral vein, with a small chance of being born. It is a hundred times stronger than steel, but at the same time as light as down.
One tael of Wind's Breathing Orichalcum is worth as much as an ordinary magic weapon. The piece of Wind's Breathing Orichalcum in his hand is probably more than three taels, which is extremely valuable.
"Fellow Daoist Haihe is interested."
Zhang Yao said cheerfully:
"After you turn around, thank fellow Taoist Haihe for me."
The great turmoil he caused in the Five Elements Secret Realm spread throughout the immortal cultivation worlds in the southwestern countries, and even reached the fifty-four countries in the heart of the Central Plains.
Master Haihe must have heard the news later and knew his true cultivation foundation, so he specially sent this piece of Fengxi Orichalcum that was very important to him.
"Wanhuadu Tianzhen Sutra" is not a top secret to several people who participated in the discovery of the Five Elements Secret Realm.
"Yes, I will obey my ancestor's instructions."
After Liu Yun bowed respectfully again, she heard Zhang Yao ask again:
"Did fellow Taoist Haihe have anything to say about this Fengxi orichalcum?"
"some."
Liu Yun seemed to have guessed that he would ask this question, and immediately responded:
"The ancestor said that if you ask about Fengxi Orichalcum, he will tell you that this is the only stock he has."
"If you still want more Fengxi Orichalcum, then I'll trouble you to go to Dayu in person. My ancestor will be waiting for you."
"Hahaha……"
Zhang Yao gave a long laugh and said with a smile:
"The way fellow Daoist Haihe behaves is really different from what I remember."
In fact, he had already guessed about this gift specially sent by Master Haihe.
Jindan Zhenren can easily travel tens of thousands of miles in a day. He can travel across the Fubo Sea to Dali and come to Dali in person to congratulate him. It doesn't even take a month for him to go back and forth.
However, Master Haihe said that he was too busy with trivial matters to come in person. This clearly meant that Fuhai Sect was currently encountering some troubles and difficulties that prevented him from getting away.
Combined with the congratulatory gift he received, the necessary wind-breathing orichalcum, the implication is self-evident.
More than three taels of Wind's Breathing Orichalcum is far from enough for him. If he wants to refine the 'Tianfeng Invisible Body', one of the five-phase magical power, he will need at least twelve taels of Wind's Breathing Orichalcum.
Moreover, the more of these treasures of heaven and earth, the better. In addition to cultivating magical powers, they can also be consumed to strengthen their own treasures. Zhang Yao's attitude is of course that the more, the better.
"Forgive me, ancestor."
When Liu Yun heard Zhang Yao's words, she lowered her head and did not dare to respond.
She, a monk in the foundation-building stage, didn't even have the guts to comment on this kind of exchange between the Jindan ancestors.
"After all, it's not the same as before..."
Zhang Yao also felt a trace of emotion in his heart.
If it had been back then, based on the friendship between him and Master Haihe, if the other party needed help, he would have just asked him, and he would most likely not have refused.
But after many years, everything is different.
First of all, along with the massacre of hundreds of foundations in the Five Elements Secret Realm, there were also comments about his years of concealment, disguise, forbearance, and scheming. Although it was not deliberately deceiving, to Master Haihe, it was more or less. A thorn in my heart.
Secondly, more than seventy years have passed, and the status of the two of them is very different. With the passage of time, he probably can't figure out Zhang Yao's true thoughts.
Zhang Yao could completely guess that it was out of this subtle thought that Master Haihe sent someone to send the congratulatory gift this time.
"Please tell this to fellow Taoist Haihe."
Zhang Yao's tone was gentle and he said:
"In a month, I will go to Dayu to visit him in person."
"Yes, I will obey my ancestor's instructions."
Liu Yun immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly responded respectfully.
"Go ahead."
Zhang Yao raised his hand and motioned for her to step back.
Liu Yun immediately stood up and exited the side hall calmly.
Not long after she left, Patriarch Zhenyang and others came together, obviously they had been waiting for a long time.
Main hall of Qingxu Palace:
After some pleasantries, Patriarch Zhenyang and others intentionally or unintentionally brought the topic to the newly arrived Master of the Foundation Establishment of Fuhai Sect.
Zhang Yao felt a little funny in his heart, so he took the initiative to speak out and clarify their concerns:
"Are some of you worried that the Fuhai Sect will take this opportunity to return to the world of immortal cultivation in Dali?"
After hearing his words, Ancestor Zhenyang and others looked at each other, and their expressions became much calmer.
"Brother Dao, your guess is good."
The ancestor of Sanshan whispered:
"After so many years, it doesn't make much sense no matter what happened back then."
"If they really want to return to Dali, we can actually accept it."
"But after the bloody battle, the two sides were already at odds, which have not been resolved for many years. If Fuhaizong returns to Dali, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get along happily..."
What he said was obviously not true.
After Fuhai Sect was expelled from Dali, Dali's many spiritual veins and resources were shared by the three families, and the power of the three families expanded unprecedentedly.
It can be said that today's Lingyang Sect, Shanhe Sect and Lonely Family, except for the lack of foundation-building masters at the backbone level, are much stronger overall than they were a hundred years ago.
In this case, of course they are not willing to add another person to the table to share the food, which will only further weaken them.
"Don't worry, you guys."
Zhang Yao waved his hand and said:
"Ancestor Haihe, who is now in charge of Fuhaizong, wrote me a personal letter."
"He has made it clear in his letter that Fuhai Sect spent decades to gain a firm foothold in the world of immortal cultivation in Dayu. It is extremely difficult to build a foundation and these cannot be given up easily."
"And as you said, it would be inappropriate for Fu Hai Sect to return to Dali, so they are not planning to return..."
At the end of his sentence, he suddenly came to his senses.
The power of Tianbao Tower is spread throughout the southwest, and the spies and tentacles of the three major families are also scattered throughout the southwest countries.
Aren’t Patriarch Zhenyang and others unclear about the basic information about the Dayu Immortal Realm and Fuhai Sect?
But they still have this worry...
Zhang Yao's thoughts changed and he immediately figured out the joints. His expression moved slightly and asked:
"Is it possible that the Fuhai Sect is in a bad situation in the Dayu Immortal Realm?"
"Brother Dao is really quick-thinking."
Ancestor Zhenyang complimented him before explaining:
"The Da Yu Immortal Realm is also very exclusive, let alone the large sects at the Golden Core level."
"As far as we know, it took Fuhai Sect many years to gain a firm foothold in the Dali Immortal Cultivation World, and it can be considered as preliminary integration into the Dayu Immortal Cultivation World."
"But a few years ago, there was another 'Emerald Change' incident. We don't know the specific situation, but after this incident, the situation of Fuhai Sect became worse."
"I see."
Zhang Yao nodded slightly and said:
"No wonder you are worried that Fuhai Sect will return to the world of Dali cultivation."
"But you don't have to worry. I will personally go to Dayu next month to look for Fengxi orichalcum and solve this problem along the way."
After hearing this, Ancestor Zhenyang and others looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.
They had personally experienced how terrifying Zhang Yao's strength was, and those few golden elixirs from the Dayu Immortal Realm tied together might not be a match for the Qingxu Ancestor.
Now that he is gone, Fuhaizong's situation will definitely improve, and they don't need to worry.
"Brother Tao."
Dugu Tianyi on the side said:
"Speaking of Fengxi Orichalcum, we are about to report the good news to Brother Dao."
"Based on our collection and bounties for nearly a year, we have obtained a total of three definite pieces of information, one of which is about the Wind's Rest Orichalcum."
When he said this, he paused and then said:
"How the Fengxi orichalcum in Dayu came from, almost no one outside knows, there are only some random rumors, but it can be determined that it is related to the incident of 'Emerald Change'."
"The second message is about the 'Infinite Yin Earth' you need. It exists in the territory of Da Mo and was obtained by the Jiuhua ancestor of Da Mo's 'Shenhua Sect'."
"The third piece of news is the 'Baoxiangliu Gold Paste' that you asked for. We got the exact news that it can be redeemed on Mani's domestic 'Good Merit List' and is ranked seventh on the list."
Hearing this, Zhang Yao nodded slightly and praised:
"Thank you for your help from some fellow Taoists."
After all, the southwest land is remote, and he is very satisfied with the precise information about three rare treasures and spiritual objects.
Among the three treasures, the best thing to get is Wujian Yintu in Damo. It is very convenient to go directly to the Jiuhua ancestor of the Shenhua sect and exchange it directly if they are willing to trade, or rob it if they are not willing to trade.
The hardest thing to get is probably Mani's 'Baoxiangliu Gold Paste'.
This thing is classified as a man-made spiritual object, but it is rarer than many treasures of heaven and earth. It is a treasure for monks who practice Buddhist techniques. It is also of great use to the golden body Arhat of Buddhism, that is, the monks of the first level of Golden Core.
Mani Kingdom is one of the fifty-four kingdoms in the Central Plains. It is three-thirds more powerful than Jing Kingdom. Buddhism is respected in the mortal world, and the world of immortality is also dominated by Buddhist monks.
He had learned about the list of good deeds of the Mani Kingdom from Yu Wentai's memory, but he didn't know much about it. After all, Liu Cang, the Five Elements Sanshi at that time, had never been to the Mani Kingdom, and he only heard the information from hearsay.
Liu Cang obtained the 'Baoxiangliu Gold Paste' at the auction of Tianzhou Jiufu. This kind of thing purely depends on luck, and it is difficult for Zhang Yao to copy his route.
"Let's go to Dayu first to solve the problem of Fuhai Sect, and also search for Fengxi Orichalcum."
"After leaving Dayu, go to Damo again to find Jiuhua Ancestor in exchange for Wujian Yin Earth, and finally go to Mani Kingdom."
Zhang Yao had a complete plan in mind.
He chatted with Patriarch Zhenyang and others again for a while, then sent them away.
…………
Half a month later.
When the one-year period comes, Qingxu Palace opens its doors, which arouses excitement among countless monks.
The disciples of the three major forces led by Ancestor Zhenyang, Ancestor Sanshan and Dugu Tianyi came to congratulate him in person, and a number of principals from the second-rate forces also appeared one after another.
A wide-open selection has become a rare event in the world of Dali cultivators, demonstrating the status and absolute influence of Patriarch Qingxu.
But as many people had guessed, Patriarch Qingxu opened the palace this time to only recruit some people to serve him, so the conditions were very strict, especially in terms of age.
finally:
Only thirty-six boys and girls were selected to enter the Qingxu Palace and serve as attendants after numerous selections and under the eyes of Patriarch Qingxu himself.
These boys and girls generally have good looks, outstanding temperament, and good cultivation talents, so they stand out from the fierce competition and become the final winners.
While countless monks returned disappointed, many families and sects also rejoiced and looked forward to the future of chickens and dogs ascending to heaven.
But what no one expected was:
Just half a month after selecting the attendants of Qingxu Palace, Patriarch Qingxu traveled far away and left Qingxu Palace in Pingdu Mountain.
Above the sky:
"boom!"
Zhang Yao transformed into a dazzling white rainbow, tearing apart the sea of clouds in an instant and flying towards the east.
The Aurora Escape Technique he practiced was not only unparalleled in the explosive flashing and maneuvering in short-distance battles, but also had a huge advantage in long-distance travel, including traveling a hundred thousand miles a day.
Thanks to such a fast light escape speed:
In just three days, Zhang Yao traveled hundreds of thousands of miles across the entire Fubo Sea and arrived at the waters within the Dayu Kingdom.
