817: Teacher's kindness and students' filial piety
"Old Ancestor!"
Within the Lightning Pool, Zhou Xiutong, her consciousness having returned to her body, opened her eyes. She saw a phantom of consciousness in the sky outside the Lightning Pool.
Mo Xuan nodded.
His gaze fell to the bottom of the Lightning Pool.
A remnant consciousness...
A remnant consciousness very similar to Old Crane's.
Moreover, that glance it gave me seemed very shocked.
But the aura of this remnant consciousness was different from Old Crane's.
There must be a hidden story, but this remnant consciousness had already dissipated.
Mo Xuan retracted his gaze. It was not just the wisp of remnant consciousness at the bottom of the Lightning Pool; the special creature that had condensed within the thunderclouds had also dissipated.
From now on, this Lightning Pool would just be a Lightning Pool.
Zhou Xiutong flew out and landed beside Mo Xuan's phantom of consciousness, bowing in greeting once more.
The Lightning Pool floating in the sky slowly sank into the Heart of the Sea of Thunder under the bombardment of the black clouds and lightning.
When it finished accumulating enough lightning fluid to reach Perfection, it would appear once again.
"Let's go."
Mo Xuan looked at Zhou Xiutong, who clearly had something to say, but he was not in a rush.
Zhou Xiutong nodded and prepared to leave this world with Mo Xuan.
"Daoist..."
At this moment, a hesitant voice came from above the Sea of Thunder.
Zhou Xiutong looked in the direction of the voice.
She saw Pu Yuanzi, who had approached slightly but stopped in the distance.
"Fellow Daoist Pu Yuanzi, thank you very much for everything along the way."
Zhou Xiutong thanked him sincerely.
Throughout the journey, Pu Yuanzi had been very enthusiastic, allowing her to know what kind of great Yao she had repelled each time she smashed a sea beast with her hammer, as well as what kind of Divine Abilities and talents it possessed.
It could be considered as having broadened her horizons.
"Fellow Daoist, you are too polite."
Pu Yuanzi's eyes were somewhat complex, and he waved his hand dismissively.
This person was indeed from another world.
That black snake phantom quietly floating in the sky—he only needed one look to feel his heart trembling.
This must be an existence far beyond his reach right now.
"I come from the Chaofeng Ancient Realm. The world there is vast, and powerful experts are as numerous as a forest. I hope to see you in the Chaofeng Ancient Realm in the future."
Zhou Xiutong waved her hand, and a stream of light landed in front of Pu Yuanzi, revealing a Jade Slip.
The Jade Slip contained the location of the Chaofeng Ancient Realm and a general overview of the ancient Realm.
Pu Yuanzi subconsciously grabbed the Jade Slip, but when he looked up again, Zhou Xiutong had already vanished.
"Chaofeng Ancient Realm, Eastern Wasteland, Heavenly Venerate..."
Pu Yuanzi's consciousness sank into the Jade Slip in his hand.
A grand scroll slowly unfolded in his mind.
There, there were countless great Cultivators, Imperial Dynasties, Ancient Kingdoms, Holy Lands, Immortal Sects, Spirit Races, the Yao Race, Dao Lords, Heavenly Venerates, Loose Immortals...
This was the place he was meant to go.
The Great World of the Sea of Thunder was, after all, too small.
With his Void Refining Early Stage strength, he was already standing at the peak of the Great World of the Sea of Thunder.
But if he were in the Chaofeng Ancient Realm, although he could still be a powerful figure or an overlord in one region, he would be far from reaching the summit of the world.
"Chaofeng Ancient Realm, I will go there!"
"I hope we can meet again."
Pu Yuanzi looked toward the sky outside the world.
There, a massive black shadow seemed to have disappeared from sight.
Outside the Great World of the Sea of Thunder.
"Fellow Daoist, I have disturbed you during this time."
Mo Xuan nodded at Fa Huazi's Heavenly Venerate projection and took Zhou Xiutong away from this world.
"This existence is truly terrifying."
Fa Huazi gazed into the distance.
Although this Great World of the Sea of Thunder was the place where his Heavenly Venerate projection was imprinted, he had never discovered the Opportunity within that Lightning Pool.
He hadn't expected Mo Xuan to see it just like that.
His own strength was equally formidable, and his vision was extraordinary.
He naturally saw that Zhou Xiutong had gained huge benefits.
It was just that these benefits were not meant for him or the Fahua Holy Sect.
"Old Ancestor, at the bottom of the Lightning Pool..."
In the Void Realm, Zhou Xiutong followed by Mo Xuan's side, recounting everything that had happened at the bottom of the Lightning Pool.
"Old Ancestor, is there any connection between my two Revered Masters?"
In the end, Zhou Xiutong asked with some curiosity.
Mo Xuan slowly shook his head.
Although he had obtained the life and death reincarnation mirror, he had not yet fully comprehended it or integrated it into the white light within his body.
Given his current Realm, he was still unable to see what connection existed between the two.
The Immortal Court, the Thunder Department Heavenly Venerate, the Emperor...
It seemed that something extraordinary must have happened in the Immortal Realm.
A mysterious and profound sense of urgency quietly arose.
It seemed to be urging him to ascend to the Immortal Realm.
The Immortal Realm.
Mo Xuan looked up and stared, but could not see anything.
However, he had a slight premonition in his heart.
The Immortal Realm was probably not as it was described in legends.
The Dao of Immortals, carefree and unfettered.
From the strange occurrences, the Creation True Immortal, the heavenly dao flower, to this remnant consciousness of the Puhua True Immortal, all of them were telling him that the Immortal Realm was not as peaceful and comfortable as it seemed.
"Old Crane certainly has good luck."
Suppressing the thoughts in his mind, Mo Xuan chuckled softly.
Zhou Xiutong had obtained the Legacy of the Puhua True Immortal.
Upon returning, she would naturally pass it on to He Run.
This Legacy led directly to the Immortal Realm and was extremely extraordinary.
Even Mo Xuan could not help but remark on his good luck.
"Hehe~"
Zhou Xiutong giggled along.
She couldn't help but imagine the scene after returning, where she would pass this Immortal Legacy to her Revered Master.
Hiss!
An inexplicable sense of satisfaction made Zhou Xiutong's whole body tingle.
Hahaha~
Zhou Xiutong laughed out loud.
Mo Xuan was somewhat speechless.
He didn't even need to guess what Zhou Xiutong was thinking.
It was truly a case of a benevolent Revered Master and a filial Disciple.
...
"Achoo!"
In the Chaofeng Ancient Realm, Eastern Wasteland, Chaotic Sea, Gui Zhou Island, inside the main hall on Xuanqing Peak.
He Run sat upright, looking at the handsome and beautiful young boy and girl growing up below.
He felt a bit strange; could it be that Xiutong was really talking about him?
Or was it that Xiutong, from so far away, had sensed that she had gained a pair of Junior Brother and Junior Sister?
"Zhao Zhao, Yunxian, why haven't you offered tea and paid respects to your Revered Master yet?"
Elder Beihai and his wife, along with Qi Dade and his wife, stood on either side of He Run and spoke to the two teenagers in the hall.
"Disciple Zhao Zhao pays respects to Revered Master. May Revered Master enjoy eternal immortal fortune and may your Immortal Dao remain evergreen."
The handsome youth Zhao Zhao kept his face tense, his expression serious, and he bowed respectfully with meticulous care before offering the spirit tea in his hands.
"Good."
He Run nodded with a smile, took the spirit tea, and drank it in one gulp.
"Disciple Qi Yunxian pays respects to Revered Master. I pray that Revered Master's immortal fortune remains prosperous and the Great Dao remains evergreen."
Qi Yunxian pursed her lips, followed behind Zhao Zhao, and offered the spirit tea in his hands.
"Good."
He Run nodded again, took the spirit tea, and drank it.
"Zhao Zhao, you are the Senior Brother."
"From today on, every day at the hour of Mao, you are to bring your Junior Sister and wait in the Xuanqing Hall to practice with me."
He Run instructed the two teenagers, who had perfectly inherited the looks of Elder Beihai and Qi Dade.
The hour of Mao!
Qi Yunxian blinked her large, sparkling eyes as she looked at her Revered Master.
Seeing that her Revered Master had no reaction, she turned her head to look at her own parents.
Qi Dade's heart trembled, but under the iron grip of his wife on his waist, he finally held back, turned his head away, and ignored her.
"Disciple obeys."
Zhao Zhao was mature and steady, accepting this task, though his heart felt a bit bitter.
Qi Yunxian was too lazy; if he could, he would rather practice alone.
But there was no choice.
Since his father and Uncle Qi were close friends and the two of them had grown up together, he couldn't just leave Qi Yunxian to her own devices.
"Go."
He Run was clear in his heart, but he didn't say anything.
Although their talent was high, they still needed discipline to succeed.
Zhao Zhao's temperament was steady, so there was no need to say much, but Yunxian would require more attention in the future.
As he thought about it, He Run recalled the time when Zhou Xiutong first became his Disciple.
In the blink of an eye, that little girl's cultivation had already surpassed his own.
Time passes so easily~
