59: Zixiao Banquet, the complete Great Void Technique!

You looked at the woman in the courtyard, who seemed to have stepped out of a painting, feeling quite surprised.

The Senior Sister you had painstakingly searched for without success, you unexpectedly met her in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

“Who are you?”

Zi You put down the book in her hand and looked at you with a puzzled expression.

You felt a bit taken aback as you looked at the bewildered Zi You.

Whether it was when you met Fang Jingchun or Gu Xinyue before, they both recognized you directly.

However, now that Zi You saw you, she looked at you completely like a stranger.

“Senior Sister, it’s like this, I’m the newest Disciple to join the Sword Pavilion…”

Then you explained to Zi You about your joining the Sword Pavilion twenty years ago.

After listening, Zi You looked up at the sky, as if recalling her time in the Sword Pavilion many years ago.

“So it’s someone from the Sword Pavilion…”

Next, Zi You explained to you that her reason for joining the Sword Pavilion was entirely because the Sword Pavilion was a pure land for the Human Race.

Since she left the Sword Pavilion more than thirty years ago, she had never returned.

“Little Junior Brother, is the Sword Pavilion still well?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Zi You noticed that your expression was a bit off.

“Something happened to the Sword Pavilion?”

Zi You frowned tightly, a hint of killing intent flashing between her brows.

Upon hearing this, you let out a long sigh, looking up at the sky.

You explained to Zi You what had happened to the Sword Pavilion.

You told her that a few years ago, a Mahayana expert entered the Blood Demon Secret Realm and destroyed the blood stele, releasing the Weird Insects that were sealed beneath the blood stele.

And you were trapped in the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm at the time, and by the time you came out, the Sword Pavilion had already been annihilated.

You also told Zi You that the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm in Qingzhou was now polluted, and it was no longer suitable for the Human Race to Breakthrough and Cultivate there.

Zi You looked at you in shock, not expecting so many things to have happened in the years since she left Youzhou.

Whether it was the release of the Weird Insects from the Blood Demon Secret Realm or the destruction of the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm in Qingzhou, these were all major blows to the Human Race.

After listening to what you said, Zi You’s expression gradually changed from shock to sudden realization.

Zi You told you that some time ago, the Purple Firmament Holy Land in Zhongzhou announced a major event.

“What major event?”

You were very curious about what it was that would make Zi You show such an expression.

Zi You told you that the Purple Firmament Holy Land publicly announced that a Heavenly Venerate Old Ancestor who had been traveling abroad had returned.

Originally, she was curious about which Old Ancestor it was, but now after listening to what you said, she understood who that person was.

Zi You looked at you, a mysterious smile appearing at the corner of her mouth.

“The Blood Demon Heavenly Venerate has returned, and the Purple Firmament Holy Land has invited the major Families, Sects, and Dynasties of Zhongzhou to attend a banquet.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Zi You turned her head and looked at you with a smile.

“Senior Sister… you wouldn’t be planning to…”

“That’s right! What a pity it would be not to go and see such an interesting banquet!”

After hearing Zi You’s words, you felt that there seemed to be a contrast between Zi You and her outward appearance.

You clearly saw her as so quiet when you first came in, yet now she was going to such a dangerous banquet.

“I want to go too! I want to go too!”

Upon hearing this, you turned your head to look at Zhou Lingxi, who was shouting.

Looking at her, who was only at the Core Formation Early Stage Realm, you helplessly shook your head.

Seeing this, Zi You also decisively rejected Zhou Lingxi, saying it would be too dangerous for her to go.

If Zhou Lingxi had not been expelled from the imperial Family by the Great Zhou Dynasty, then she could have used her identity as a Great Zhou imperial Family member to attend the banquet.

You asked Zi You when the Purple Firmament Holy Land’s banquet would begin.

Zi You told you that the Purple Firmament Holy Land’s banquet would start in half a year, which was early next year.

Next, Zi You arranged for you to stay in the small courtyard.

You randomly found an empty room and settled down.

The next day, you found Zi You again to ask about a long-standing doubt in your mind.

“Senior Sister! I heard Senior Sister Gu say that the Great Void Art is your Family’s Legacy Cultivation Technique?”

Zi You looked at you in surprise upon hearing this.

She didn’t expect you to suddenly ask about the Great Void Art.

“That’s right! It’s my Family’s Legacy Cultivation Technique, but it has very high requirements for the Cultivator’s talent. Little Junior Brother, do you want to learn it?”

You shook your head at this and told Zi You that you had already Cultivated the Great Void Art to the Major Achievement Realm.

You also told Zi You that you felt there had always been a problem with your Great Void Art, always feeling like something was missing.

Upon hearing that you had actually Cultivated the Great Void Art to Major Achievement, Zi You couldn’t help but marvel at your high talent.

Then, upon hearing you say that the Great Void Art had a problem, Zi You smiled slightly.

“Of course there’s a problem. I was afraid that those people in the Sword Pavilion wouldn’t be able to learn it, so I only taught them the initial section. I didn’t expect that only Sixth Junior Brother learned it.”

You didn’t expect that what Zi You taught Fang Jingchun was only the initial section of the Great Void Art.

However, your Great Void Art was obtained from the Bronze Divine Hall, so it was clearly not as simple as just the initial section.

You explained to Zi You that the source of your Great Void Art was not taught by Fang Jingchun, but rather obtained from the Bronze Divine Hall in the Fallen Immortal Secret Realm.

“What? You entered that Bronze Divine Hall?”

Zi You didn’t expect you to have entered the Bronze Divine Hall, and she was so shocked that she stood up directly from the stone chair.

Immediately after, she looked at you with a tight frown.

“Are you saying your Great Void Art was obtained in the Bronze Divine Hall?”

“Let me see your Great Void Art!”

Seeing Zi You’s serious expression, you didn’t hesitate and directly displayed your Great Void Art.

After a long while, Zi You let out a long sigh of relief.

“Thankfully, this is only the first half of the Great Void Art!”

Zi You told you that the reason she had been so serious just now was because the Great Void Art would not be spread outside.

She needed to rule out whether the Great Void Art circulating outside was the complete Great Void Art.

Soon, Zi You explained to you why you felt there was a problem with the Great Void Art.

Zi You told you that what you Cultivated could not be called the Great Void Art; strictly speaking, it should be called the Void Realm Art!

Only by Cultivating the complete Great Void Art would you be able to conceal your Qi well when traversing the Void Realm.

Those of the same Realm would find it difficult to discover your whereabouts, and even Cultivators one Realm higher than you would not find it easy to discover you.

Afterward, Zi You further explained why the Great Void Art appeared in the Bronze Divine Hall.

In ancient times, their Zi Family, as a top force in the Canglan Realm, had powerful experts dispersed throughout the Canglan Realm to encircle and suppress Weird Insects.

The Void Realm Art in the Bronze Divine Hall might be the Legacy left by the experts who supported Qingzhou back then.

“Senior Sister! I want to Cultivate the complete Great Void Art!”
