Chapter 741: Master Shangguan
Outside a remote town in the northeast of Xuansheng Country.
A beam of light came from far away and approached, and after it landed, it began to investigate.
After Xuan Yuanzi confirmed Pan Chengfeng's direction from Zhao Youyou, he rode non-stop for three days and finally arrived at the place Zhao Youyou mentioned.
However, after searching for a long time, they were unable to locate Pan Chengfeng's direction, because Pan Chengfeng had erased all traces of this place, and even if they went back in time, they could not find it.
But how could Pan Chengfeng completely prevent the methods of the combined cultivators? Xuan Yuanzi sneered, "Be careful, do you think that this sect won't be able to find you?!"
Xuan Yuanzi was just about to pay a small price to track down Pan Chengfeng, when he suddenly frowned and said, "Great Perfection of Refining Void? No, it's half-step fusion!"
Xuan Yuanzi disappeared in a flash and when he reappeared, he was already outside the inn in the town.
"I am flattered that you have come to visit me, Senior~" A young voice came from the inn, Xuan Yuanzi replied calmly: "I don't know which sect you are from, but you came to my Tiandao Sect Xuansheng Country to train. I am sorry for neglecting you~"
A white light flashed in front of Xuan Yuanzi, and a young figure appeared.
Holding a paper fan, with a face as beautiful as jade, red lips and white teeth, eyes like stars, he looks noble and handsome.
This appearance is far better than that of the middle-aged man Xuan Yuanzi.
Shangguan Heng smiled slightly, bowed slightly to Xuan Yuanzi and said: "Yu Lei Sect, Shangguan Heng, meet Senior Xuan Yuanzi~"
Xuan Yuanzi thought to himself, "What a handsome young man with a graceful figure and a romantic temperament!"
In fact, Shangguan Heng is already over a thousand years old, but who can blame him for advancing to the stage of transformation and refining emptiness so early? He looks much younger than Xuanyuanzi, who started cultivating immortals halfway.
Although Xuan Yuanzi was a mid-stage fusion cultivator, he did not dare to be arrogant. He returned a half-salute and said, "So you are the Yu Lei Sect, the leader of the Shangguan family. I apologize for the rudeness."
Shangguan Heng opened his fan with a swish sound, shook it twice, and chuckled, "Senior, you are too polite. I have been traveling here since then, and I heard that several elders of the Tiandao Sect are going to accept disciples, so I came here to join in the fun. I hope I didn't disturb you."
Pan Chengfeng left, and now here comes Shangguan Heng, who is even more powerful. Although Xuan Yuanzi doesn't want to have much contact with Shangguan Heng, since the person is here, he can't just chase him away, right?
Besides, Xuan Yuanzi couldn't afford to offend either the Yu Lei Sect or the Shangguan Family, the first family, so he could only smile and say, "Mr. Shangguan, you are too polite. I am so happy that you are willing to come to watch the ceremony. How could I disturb you?"
"Very good~" Shangguan Heng chuckled and said, "Then please trouble Senior Xuanyuanzi to lead the way. I have never been to Tiandao Sect. I heard that Tiandao Sect has outstanding people and beautiful scenery. In just a few decades, it defeated Taoyun Sect and became the tenth sect in Dongzhou. I am really curious~"
The two walked side by side. Xuan Yuanzi did not dare to walk in front of Shangguan Heng. Although he was the sect leader, Shangguan Heng's status was too prominent, so he could only "serve" him carefully.
On the other hand, Pan Chengfeng had discussed with Shangguan Heng two days ago. Shangguan Heng would go to delay Xuan Yuanzi, while Pan Chengfeng would return to Muxin Town in disguise.
After Zhao Youyou returned, Pan Chengfeng guessed that Xuan Yuanzi would come to arrest him personally, and he came right.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess. Among the Dongzhou cultivators, there are few who are not afraid of the reputation of the Yu Lei Sect. It is very likely that Xuan Yuanzi will not send other combined cultivators to come, so he can only go into battle himself.
So the two of them agreed to leave Shangguan Heng here to wait for Xuan Yuanzi, and then pester him to buy time and space for Pan Chengfeng to infiltrate the Tiandao Sect.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, a month had passed, and the Tiandao Sect's disciple-recruiting ceremony officially began.
All the cultivators in the entire Muxin Town, regardless of their level of cultivation, as long as they could fly, ran to the gate of Tiandao Sect to watch the excitement.
And today, the Tiandao Sect also allowed outside monks to come and watch the ceremony. The entire mountain gate was crowded with people, all wanting to see the pomp of the top ten sects in Dongzhou.
"Master, everyone is here." A Tiandao Sect disciple reported to Xuan Yuanzi, "There are already many cultivators standing outside, but most of them are at the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core stages. There are tens of thousands of Nascent Soul and Divine Transformation stages, and there are even fewer Void Refining cultivators."
Xuan Yuanzi was a little disappointed, but he didn't show it. He nodded and said, "Let's get started~"
The disciples left, and the deputy sect leader Li Mao said worriedly: "Sect leader, there are not as many as expected. How about waiting a few more days?"
Xuan Yuanzi shook his head and said, "No need. We started promoting this three years ago. Those who should come and are willing to come have all come. For those who look down on us, it's useless to wait any longer."
Li Mao thought for a while and said, "Why not recruit more Jindan Yuanying cultivators and train them for a few decades..." He stopped talking halfway.
If the Tiandao Sect had so many resources and so many Broken Mirror Pills, it would not be in such a predicament now with a hollow middle level, and would not even dare to participate in the three sects competition.
Xuan Yuanzi nodded and said, "Okay, pass the order down and recruit 30,000 more Golden Cores and 10,000 more Infants. Don't be too harsh when assessing them."
The deputy sect leader and the three elders looked at each other and sighed. Xuan Yuanzi felt that the atmosphere was a bit depressing, and hurriedly said with a smile: "What's wrong? Our Tiandao Sect has been around for 1,500 years, and has achieved such an achievement. How many sects can compare with it?
Come with us, there is no need to suppress the fluctuations of mana! Let them see the strength of the Tiandao Sect!"
The mountain gate was filled with cultivators, all of them stretched their heads, waiting to see the cultivators who had achieved the state of fusion. These people were usually invisible to the Void Refining cultivators, let alone the state of fusion.
The mountain gate opened with a humming sound. Xuan Yuanzi took the lead, and Deputy Sect Leader Li Mao lagged behind him by half a step. The three elders followed closely behind, and five combined cultivators appeared outside the mountain gate together.
Although it was not targeting anyone in particular, the magic power contained in the body of a cultivator who has achieved the ultimate state of integration was so powerful that how could the independent cultivators who had never seen it experience it?
All of a sudden, ninety percent of the people were pushed back by this fluctuation of magic power, as if they were not qualified to stand in front of the fusion monk at all.
Pan Chengfeng also pretended to retreat more than a hundred meters, thinking to himself: "What a show! Why are they bullying these casual cultivators who have built their foundation?"
There was silence at the scene. Xuan Yuanzi nodded with satisfaction. The effect was much better than he expected.
Then he waved his hand, and six large chairs appeared outside the mountain gate. Xuan Yuanzi and his companions walked to the chairs, turned around and looked at the group of casual cultivators, and said softly: "This time, the elders of Tiandao Sect are recruiting disciples. We are honored to invite Shangguan Heng from Yulei Sect and Shangguan Family to come and watch the ceremony. Please welcome Shangguan~"
In front of the big chair to the lower left of Xuan Yuanzi, a white light flashed, and a handsome young man with elegant manners appeared. He opened his white fan with a swish, shook it twice and said, "Senior Xuan Yuanzi, you are too polite. I am just here to join in the fun. Why do you have to let everyone know?"
"Shangguan Heng?!" "Shangguan Heng?" "The leader of the Shangguan family?!" The wandering cultivators outside the mountain gate began to discuss. There was nothing they could do, the Shangguan family was too famous, and it was hard not to be discussed.
What’s more, Shangguan Heng is the strongest person in the five generations of the Shangguan family.
The female cultivators blushed, the male cultivators were envious, and Pan Chengfeng muttered sourly: "What's so great about that! Isn't it just the strongest of the five generations of the Shangguan family? I'm even the best of this generation! It's amazing to be a little more handsome than me!!"
Shangguan Heng saluted to the five combined members of the Tiandao Sect, and then saluted to the group of independent practitioners and said, "Thank you all for your kindness. Heng, I would like to thank you here."
"As expected, he is a descendant of a great sect or family. He even bowed to us!" The group of casual cultivators quickly responded with greetings, "Mr. Shangguan, you are so polite~"
A million-level cultivation ceremony, if you say Pan Chengfeng is not envious, that's a lie, he is envious to death, it's a pity that he can't jump out and "steal the limelight" now~
Xuan Yuanzi saw that Shangguan Heng was about to steal all the limelight, so he quickly said, "Master Shangguan, please take a seat. It will start soon."
