267: Chapter 267 Li Xuanfeng Descends the Mountain

This feeling of being completely out of control made Tianjizi, who wielded the Heavenly Secret and discerned all worldly affairs, feel a rare unease.

He sighed softly, a hint of weariness and worry in his eyes.

"Old Ancestor's Lifespan is almost exhausted, and he has used secret techniques to extend his Lifespan several times.

If there is no undying divine medicine to extend his life this time, I fear he won't be able to wait until the next Seven Stars Aligned."

undying divine medicine had long been extinct in the Mortal World for ten thousand years.

Only the mysterious and unfathomable "Undying Secret Realm," which opens with the alignment of the Seven Stars every long period, offered a glimmer of hope.

This seven star secret token was the key to that glimmer of hope.

"Battle Asura, Sword White Robe, Azure Rakshasa..." Tianjizi once again softly chanted these names, tapping his fingertips in the Void Realm, attempting to deduce their origins and backgrounds.

However, the result was exactly the same as when he deduced the seventh secret token.

Their past was a complete Chaos, as if someone had erased them from the river of time with supreme power, and their future was shrouded in dense fog, full of countless variables and heart-stopping, vast Luck, making it impossible to glimpse!

Their Sect background was the greatest taboo in his deductions.

Every time he tried to touch upon it, he would suffer a backlash, as if he was prying into some unspeakable, supreme existence.

"Alas, a time of turmoil, with stars shining brightly, is also a sign of a chaotic era."

Tianjizi finally gave up on his deductions, slowly rose, and looked into the distance.

"The Eastern Domain has become the center of a whirlpool, with many heroes rising and Dragons and snakes contending for supremacy.

The ownership of this seventh secret token, and the movements of those mysterious Prodigies, might be the key to stirring up the future overall situation."

"My Heavenly Secret Pavilion also needs to prepare early."

His figure slowly merged into the starlight, and a moment later, he appeared in a quiet room beneath the Star Gazing Platform, a room filled with star trajectories.

He pondered for a moment over a suspended star chart, constantly evolving, in the Void Realm, then slowly tapped it with a fingertip condensed with starlight.

"Om..."

Above the star chart, the area representing the Eastern Domain glowed brightly, with numerous star trajectories intertwining and colliding within it, revealing an ineffable order amidst the Chaos.

Ultimately, all trajectories subtly pointed to a vague yet crucial node.

"The Eastern Domain is indeed the eye of the storm.

The seven star secret tokens are about to gather, and the opening of the Undying Secret Realm is not far off.

Someone must personally go to the Eastern Domain to gain a glimpse of the true opportunity regarding the ownership of the seventh secret token and the variables like Battle Asura, to plan early."

Tianjizi's eyes were deep, and he had already made a decision in his heart.

With a gentle flick of his sleeve, the Void Realm before him rippled like water, revealing a solitary Peak situated among the clouds, enveloped by endless starlight.

At the Peak, a young man sat cross-legged.

He wore a star-patterned Dao robe similar to Tianjizi's, but it was simpler.

His face was handsome, and when his eyes opened and closed, it seemed as if billions of stars were born and destroyed, giving him an ethereal and transcendent aura, as if he had merged with the stars of the universe.

His aura was perfectly harmonious and natural, having reached the Peak of the Heavenly Human Realm, just one step away from entering the King's Domain.

He was the Dao Son of this generation of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, Xing Lan.

"Xing Lan."

Tianjizi's voice, calm and steady, resonated through the Void Realm.

Xing Lan slowly opened his eyes, the starlight within them receding, and rose to respectfully bow to the Void Realm: "Revered Master."

"You have already sensed the situation in the Eastern Domain," Tianjizi said directly, without pleasantries.

"Yes," Xing Lan nodded, "The stars are restless, and the Heavenly Secret is in Chaos, especially in the Eastern Domain.

The Emperor Star is faintly visible, the three stars of Sha Po Lang are in unusual motion, and there are many variables entangled, making it difficult to predict."

"The destruction of Glazed Holy Land, the appearance of six of the seven star secret tokens, and the complete concealment of the seventh.

Furthermore, the origins of Battle Asura, Sword White Robe, and Azure Rakshasa are a mystery, their Luck is vast, stirring up the winds and clouds, and behind them, there seems to be an immeasurable force obscuring the Heavenly Secret."

Tianjizi briefly explained the situation, "The Undying Secret Realm is crucial to the Old Ancestor's extension of Lifespan, and no mistakes can be tolerated.

The Eastern Domain has become a chessboard, and my Heavenly Secret Pavilion cannot merely be an observer."

Xing Lan's expression was calm: "Revered Master, do you mean for Disciple to enter the game?"

"Indeed," Tianjizi nodded, "There are three objectives for this trip:

"Firstly, to ascertain the whereabouts of the seventh secret token, or at least confirm its ownership.

This matter is crucial for the opening of the Secret Realm."

"Secondly, to pay attention to the movements of Battle Asura and the other two, and to observe them as closely as possible to deduce their origins and motives.

But remember, you can only observe from afar, not probe, and certainly not become enemies!

These three are shrouded in dense fog, and forcibly deducing them might lead to a backlash.

The existence behind them is something even I cannot glimpse, and they are by no means ordinary."

"Thirdly, to quietly observe the changes.

The Eastern Domain is a place where Dragons and snakes rise, and Prodigies contend for supremacy; this is the prelude to a great era.

You need to personally enter the Mortal World, temper your Dao Heart amidst the myriad phenomena of the Mortal World, and verify what you have learned.

Perhaps you can capture a glimmer of opportunity for a Breakthrough amidst the Chaos."

As he spoke, Tianjizi flicked his finger, and the Heavenly Secret token, radiating with the Dao Rhyme of the stars, transformed into a streak of light, passed through the Void Realm, and hovered before Xing Lan.

At the same time, an ancient bronze compass and a starlight Talisman also descended.

"This is a secret token from our Pavilion, which can protect your safety."

"The Star Evolution Compass will help you deduce the Heavenly Secret and avoid danger."

"This 'Star Shift Talisman' contains a strike from me; it can tear through the Void Realm and allow you to escape for ten thousand li.

Do not use it lightly, unless it is a matter of life and death."

Xing Lan solemnly accepted the three treasures.

"Disciple respectfully obeys Revered Master's command."

Xing Lan bowed in response, his eyes calm and unwavering, without the slightest fear or excitement, as if he had merely accepted an ordinary task.

"Go."

Tianjizi waved his hand.

"Worldly affairs are like a game of Go, and the universe is unpredictable.

Go and be that pebble cast into the lake, and see what ripples it can create.

Above all, ensure your own safety."

"Yes."

Xing Lan bowed again, then took a step, and his figure vanished from the solitary Peak.

The next moment, he appeared in the sea of clouds on the outskirts of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion, looking back at the magnificent pavilion that seemed to be forged from stars, with starlight subtly flowing in his eyes.

He did not immediately tear through the Void Realm to travel, but instead slowly descended, like an ordinary traveling Cultivator, walking step by step down the mountain and merging into the vast crowd.

Qingyun Peak, inside the Sect Master's quiet room.

Xuan Yangzi was facing a flickering communication Jade Slip, his brows tightly furrowed.

Messages of rising turmoil from various parts of the Eastern Domain flowed through the Jade Slip, each name representing a new, formidable force that was stirring the waters of the Eastern Domain into even greater murkiness.

Just then, the door of the quiet room was silently pushed open.

Xuan Yangzi looked up and saw Li Xuanfeng standing quietly outside the door.

His aura was serene, and the spiritual Qi around him was perfectly contained.

If one did not sense carefully, one might even mistake him for an ordinary Core Formation Realm Disciple, completely unable to perceive the vast power of the Heavenly Human Realm Early Stage, comparable to that of a King, hidden within him.

"Revered Master," Li Xuanfeng's voice was calm and steady.

"Xuan Feng? What is it?"

Xuan Yangzi was somewhat surprised; Li Xuanfeng was always very steady and rarely sought him out proactively.

Li Xuanfeng entered the quiet room, respectfully bowed, then after a slight pause, he spoke: "Revered Master, Disciple has recently cultivated, and occasionally had some insights, and my Realm has slightly advanced."

Xuan Yangzi's Divine Sense moved slightly, and after a careful examination, he was immediately startled.

Li Xuanfeng's cultivation had silently Broken Through to the Heavenly Human Realm Early Stage, and his Foundation was so solid, his spiritual Qi so condensed, far surpassing others at the same Realm, yet he had perfectly concealed it.

"Good, a solid Foundation!"

Xuan Yangzi suppressed the joy in his heart and nodded repeatedly.

This was how a Disciple of his Azure Profound Sect should be.

"Revered Master, Disciple recently heard that various Prodigies are rising in the Eastern Domain, stirring up winds and clouds."

He paused, his voice sincere: "Although Disciple has been diligently cultivating within the Sect, receiving careful guidance from Revered Master and Martial Uncle Gu, and has not neglected Cultivation Techniques and Spells, I believe my Foundation is quite stable.

However... constantly cultivating behind closed doors, I always feel my horizons are narrow.

To read ten thousand books, one must eventually travel ten thousand li."

He looked at Xuan Yangzi, his eyes clear, filled with a pure desire for knowledge: "Disciple wishes to travel down the mountain for a while.

It is not for fighting or gaining fame.

I just want to see with my own eyes what kind of demeanor these Prodigies of the Golden Great Era possess?"

Xuan Yangzi stroked his beard in contemplation.

After a moment of thought, Xuan Yangzi slowly nodded: "Hmm, what you said is not without reason.

Cultivating behind closed doors is indeed not a good strategy.

Going out to see the world will also benefit your Dao Heart cultivation."

His expression turned serious, and he earnestly admonished: "But remember!

Unless absolutely necessary, you must never easily reveal your origins.

Always prioritize stability and safety first!

If anything goes wrong, immediately retreat to the Sect, without the slightest hesitation!"

"Disciple respectfully obeys Revered Master's command! I will act with a low profile." Li Xuanfeng bowed in response.
