Chapter 727 Back Door Blocked

The life span of Yunjiang Dragon Lord is coming to an end!

Although he didn't say it directly, Zhou Qing was sure that this was what Lord Juezhen wanted to tell him by using the example of the Black Mountain God.

As good friends of the mountain god since his youth, these two peerless masters are almost the same age.

The dragon race has a long lifespan, longer than humans, and the stronger the dragon's bloodline, the more so.

However, although the bodies of gods cannot achieve immortality, their lifespans are in no way inferior to those of dragons.

The Black Mountain God is about to die of old age. If you think about it carefully, the Yunjiang Dragon King can't be much better.

The fact that he can live for more than 400 years now is actually the result of taking various life-extending treasures.

The Yun family is developing very well now, but for the Yun family, the most important person is actually Yunjiang Longjun.

With the presence of this peerless Dragon King, and the Snow Dragon Clan behind him who is capable of standing up to the West Sea Dragon Clan, and the close cooperation between the two sides, the Yun Family can be considered stable.

But if the Yunjiang Dragon King died of old age, it would be a fatal blow to both the Yunjiang Dragon Palace and the Black Mountain Holy Land.

The originally stable and vigorous force will be shaky in an instant.

The Dragon Queen of Yunjiang, who was born in the Snow Dragon Clan, is indeed still there. Without the Dragon King, the Dragon Queen should be willing to continue supporting the Yun family. After all, she has been friends with the Yun family for more than 300 years.

But it’s hard to say about the Snow Dragon Clan behind her.

The Snow Dragon Clan now supports the Yunjiang Dragon Palace, not only because the Dragon King is the Snow Dragon Clan's son-in-law, but also because the Dragon King is very powerful and is a formidable master for the Snow Dragon Clan.

But if the Dragon King dies, the grudge between the Mountain God and the Dragon King when they were alive will not disappear, but will only turn into the most ferocious backlash.

The concerns of Lord Juezhen are very reasonable. The scene of "Yun'er" withering and dispersing is very likely to occur.

Looks like I have to go meet Ao Xuanwei...

Such a thought emerged in Zhou Qing's mind. As the daughter of the Dragon King, if the Yunjiang Dragon King really passed away, Ao Xuanwei would be the person most affected.

Lord Juezhen asked, "Zhou Qing, are you willing to help the Yun family?"

Zhou Qing did not hesitate and answered straightforwardly:

“Don’t worry, senior. No matter what happens in the future, I will stand on the side of the Yun family and do my best.”

What he promised was more than what Lord Juezhen asked for.

This God only asked him to save a portion of the Yun family's incense, but he was willing to do his best!

Upon hearing this, Lord Juezhen smiled.

"On behalf of the Yun family, I thank you."

It seems absurd, unreasonable, and exaggerated for Lord Juezhen, a master of the heavenly realm, to ask a venerable for help.

But it depends on who this venerable person is.

Zhou Qing's speed of progress is even more exaggerated than that of a Heavenly Realm master asking a Venerable for help!
It's not like Yunjiang Dragon Lord will pass away tomorrow, and the matter that Juezhen God Lord entrusted to him is in the future, so it will take at least three to five years.

Judging from Zhou Qing’s current speed of cultivation, in three to five years, even if Yunjiang Dragon Lord really passed away, he would indeed be able to protect some people.

This request is quite reasonable.

"I have received many favors from the Yun family, how dare I accept your thanks."

Knowing how to repay kindness is one of Zhou Qing’s greatest strengths.

Zhou Qing’s greatest strength is that he will take revenge when there is a grudge.

Zhou Qing also liked the communication style of Lord Juezhen. He would just say what he wanted to say directly without any empty talk.

"If you need anything or need any help in the future, you can come to Black Mountain to find me."

Lord Juezhen said: "If you need help, I can also help."

He made a promise, which was very important.

"Don't worry, if the Yun family really reaches its end in the future, I will send everyone in Taibai Martial Arts School away in advance and will not let them get hurt."

Lord Juezhen smiled and said, "Besides, this is just the worst-case scenario. The future is still uncertain."

"Well... and Yun Duo, when you return to Xuandu Temple in the future, tell her to practice in Xuandu Temple with peace of mind, and consider coming back after you have learned enough."

This is to ensure Yun Duo's safety and to entrust her to Xuandu Temple.

No matter what disaster the Yun family will encounter in the future, as long as Yun Duo is in Xuandu Temple, she will be safe.

No one would be so arrogant as to rush into Xuandu Temple and kill a disciple.

Zhou Qing nodded, "I will take good care of Yun Duo."

"I heard that you wanted to go to Tianxu to take a look?"

"Last time, I was taken care of by the Mengyun family, and I got some benefits after entering the Ascension Palace."

Zhou Qing explained: "Those benefits are related to Tianxu, and there are some unfinished business, so I do plan to go and take a look."

"You come with me."

Lord Juezhen walked in another direction and came to the edge of another cliff.

He looked into the distance and said:

"This direction is the other side of Black Mountain. Go straight from here to the end and you will reach Tianxu."

This series of mountains is divided into two parts by the Black Mountain Cave Paradise.

The first half is about entering the mountains from Heiyun Town and then reaching the paradise.

The second half is from the paradise to the edge of Tianxu.

The Black Mountain is so huge that it blocks the entire vast mountain range without leaving any gaps.

Any person or non-human being, whether they want to go to Tianxu from Heiyun Town or come to Heiyun Town from Tianxu, must get permission from the Yun family.

"In terms of the cultivation environment, this area near Tianxu is much better than that in Heiyun Town. The concentration of heaven and earth energy and the treasures that are produced are all the same."

Lord Juezhen continued, "You have entered Black Mountain to explore more than once before. Most of the time, the previous areas can only produce treasures at the level of Yin God True Blood. You should have experienced this."

Zhou Qing nodded. It was true. Near Black Cloud Town, the divine materials and treasures were already top-notch, with only a few exceptions.

For example, the Butian vine is an exception.

"And the area we are looking at now is even more extraordinary. The Yun family has discovered heavenly treasures in it in the past."

Zhou Qing was not surprised by this.

The fortune contained in a paradise on earth naturally could not be limited to what he had explored before.

The various treasures he saw two years ago were just a drop in the bucket in this blessed land.

And these two areas are still not all.

The black mountain under their feet is the core and root of this blessed land.

"And the reason why the environment in this mountain area close to Tianxu is better than that in Heiyun Town is because of the influence of Tianxu."

Lord Juezhen seemed to see that terrifying land from an unknown distance away.

"The God Ancestor once speculated that the emergence of the Black Mountain Cave Heaven Blessed Land was also due to the Heavenly Ruins. The power of the Heavenly Ruins is vast, mysterious and incredible."

"I'm telling you this because I want to tell you that if you want to enter Tianxu, you can't take the Black Mountain Road. It's better to enter from Tianxu County."

"Going in from the direction of Black Mountain, we will directly reach the depths of Tianxu. The mysterious power there can affect the blessed land of Dongtian. It is very terrifying."

"When the Divine Ancestor was at his peak, he explored the Ruins of Heaven. He found a few paths that were not that dangerous, but the areas they covered were very small. Once you leave those paths and go to other areas, you will encounter great terror and it will be extremely dangerous."

The road that Zhou Qing and his companions took to the Ascension Palace was the safe path mentioned by Lord Juezhen.

Before they set off, Yun Yuannan repeatedly reminded them to follow the route and not to run around.

Even if you encounter any danger, you must just stand still and cannot run to other places.

That was a path identified as safe by the Black Mountain God, and the Yun family had been walking on it for hundreds of years. It wasn't very dangerous, but if they strayed from the route, they would enter an unpredictable area.

With Zhou Qing and the others' strength at that time, there was no possibility of survival.

"The Tianxu entrance in Tianxu County is generally recognized as relatively safe and is the most suitable place to start exploration. People also started drawing the Tianxu map from there."

"If you want to take a look at the safe paths that the God Ancestor has discovered, I can take you there. As long as you don't venture into other areas, your safety will be guaranteed."

Zhou Qing asked: "Senior, among those safe paths, is there a place like the Wandao Palace?"

He had received two rewards in the Ascension Palace.

The first reward is to soak in the Immortal Pond once and obtain the Seed of Transcendence.

The second reward is to enter the Wandao Hall of Tianming Sect, where you can obtain a Taoist technique and martial arts that are highly regarded within the Tianming Sect.

He had never heard of where the Wandao Palace was.

"No."

Lord Juezhen shook his head. "Among the several safe paths, the Ascension Palace is the only important place of the Tianming Sect that has been preserved and can still be used."

"In fact, after so many years, apart from the Ascension Palace which continues to play a role, there is nothing valuable on the other safe paths."

"The Yun family's masters have been trying to leave the safe path to explore, and they have encountered too many dangers. Before I was promoted to the Azure Realm, I almost died in an area outside the safe path."

He was truly concerned about Zhou Qing's safety. Entering Tianxu to explore from the direction of Black Mountain was definitely not a wise choice.

And those safe paths were no longer meaningful to Zhou Qing. He entered Tianxu not for sightseeing, but to gain benefits.

This area has been explored by the Yun family for hundreds of years and is no longer valuable. What is Zhou Qing doing in this area?

"If I really want to enter Tianxu later, I will follow the advice of my seniors and enter from Tianxu County."

Zhou Qing is a person who listens to advice very well.

Lord Juezhen handed over a book and said:

"This is the record of our Yun family's exploration of the Heavenly Ruins. All the strange creatures, dangerous environments, emergencies, and special treasures we found in the Heavenly Ruins are recorded here."

"You need to memorize it so it can help you when you get in."

"Thank you, senior."

Zhou Qing gladly accepted this experience. This was the Tianxu experience that the Yun family had gained after experiencing countless dangers. It was very precious.

In Tianxu, some things look peaceful and harmless, but they are the most deadly dangers.

If you don't know anything and just get involved rashly, you won't even know how you died in the end.

"Senior, Black Mountain borders Tianxu. Won't the monsters in Tianxu rush into Black Mountain?"

"There is an invisible boundary between Tianxu and the normal world outside. The strange creatures inside will not break out, and the environment of Tianxu will not continue to expand beyond the boundary."

Lord Juezhen explained: "The Tianxu surrounding the boundary is also relatively peaceful and safe, so the area bordering Black Mountain and Tianxu has never had any problems."

Zhou Qing whispered, "This is somewhat similar to the Nine Sun Ruins."

The spirits in Jiuyang Ruins will never leave Jiuyang Ruins.

"Some people have always suspected that there is some connection between Jiuyang Ruins and Tianxu. The two places are indeed somewhat similar, but Tianxu is not comparable to Jiuyang Ruins."

Lord Juezhen warned: "Remember one thing after you enter Tianxu. The closer you are to the gate of Tianming Sect, the more dangerous it will be. You must be more careful."

"The mountain gate of Tianming Sect?"

"The core part of Tianxu is where the Tianming Sect's mountain gate used to be. It is the most bizarre and unpredictable place."

"As for the other ruins, according to excavations, it is inferred that in an untraceable change, those places close to the Tianming Sect's mountain gate were also buried with the dead."

"The reason why the entrance to Tianxu County is relatively safe is because it is the farthest from the Tianming Sect's mountain gate, while the Black Mountain entrance is very close."

If the former mountain gate of Tianming Sect was in the county seat of Tianxu County, then the county seat is the most dangerous location in the current Tianxu.

The territories of the counties in Tianxu County were once destroyed, but after all, they were not the core locations and not the source of the disaster.

“Even if we don’t get close to the Tianming Sect’s mountain gate, we must not be careless if we encounter any remaining buildings belonging to the Tianming Sect.”

"In Tianxu, the most dangerous places are those that are directly related to the Tianming Sect. Places belonging to the Tianming Sect have unique marks. You must be careful to identify them. These are recorded in the book I gave you."

"..."

As the lord of the Black Mountain Holy Land and a master of the Heavenly Realm, Lord Juezhen personally said so much to Zhou Qing, which shows how much he values ​​Zhou Qing.

After all the instructions were given, Zhou Qing asked again:
"Senior, I wonder if Pavilion Master Tiemu is in Black Mountain now?"

"Yes, I'll let Tianhe take you to see him."

The Lord God smiled and said, "This person has great accomplishments in puppetry. He is quite a talent."

"Thank you for letting him come to Black Cloud Town."

It can be seen that Taoist Tiemu should have a good relationship with the Yun family, and perhaps there is hope that he can join the Black Mountain Holy Land.

If a ground puppet master like Taoist Tiemu could be won over, it would undoubtedly be a great thing for the Yun family.

This kind of earth puppet master is a rare high-level technical talent.

"Black Cloud Town is like a paradise on earth, which is very attractive in itself."

Zhou Qing asked again: "Senior, do you know the origins of Pavilion Master Tiemu?"

"He did not hide anything, including the fact that someone coveted his inheritance and who he suspected was the culprit. He confessed all these things."

That's no problem.

Yun Tianhe came here again, Zhou Qing and Lord Juezhen said goodbye and went to Taoist Tiemu.

When I saw this Earth Puppet Master again, he looked more energetic than he had more than three months ago.

After seeing Zhou Qing, Taoist Tiemu immediately laughed and said:
"Hahaha, Zhou Qing, you're finally back."

"The Pavilion Master seems to be living a happy life here."

"This place is much better than Yujing. It's quiet and there are no random people to disturb me while I am practicing puppet training."

Zhou Qing smiled, this was really dramatic.

Some people yearn for Kyoto and regard it as their lifelong dream, while others want to escape from there, thinking it is not as good as this wilderness.

"It seems that Pavilion Master's state of mind has changed. I would like to congratulate you in advance on your further progress."

"you are welcome."

Zhou Qing told Taoist Tiemu about the matter of Yukui Pavilion again to show that he had not forgotten his instructions.

"I would also like to thank Pavilion Master for the guidance of my senior brothers over the past three months."

"It's a small matter. You helped me so much. I just said a few words casually."

Taoist Tiemu promised: "I will stay in Heiyun Town for another day. If Taibai Martial Arts School has any problems or they have any doubts about their practice, they can come to me."

"Although I don't practice martial arts, I still know a little bit about it."

"Then I will have to trouble you, Master, in the future."

"Welcome."

Zhou Qing and Pavilion Master Tiemu reminisced about the past and discussed the puppet issue.

For example, what should be done for the next advancement of the Six Spirit Puppets and what plans are there.

The Six Spirit Puppets are now puppets comparable to the second level of the Earth Realm, the Ksitigarbha Earth Realm. The next step is the Houtu Earth Realm.

In this regard, Taoist Tiemu is professional. He did give Zhou Qing some advice and came up with a practical advancement plan.

But the advancement of puppets, after all, requires various treasures.

This is something Zhou Qing cannot afford for the time being.

After the chat, Zhou Qing left Heishan under the leadership of Yun Tianhe.

"Next time if you have something to do, you can contact me directly and I will pick you up."

Yun Tianhe gave Zhou Qing his contact information. Being in the Black Cloud territory, various means of communication were very convenient.

After returning to Taibai Martial Arts School, Zhou Qing saw Bai Ruoyue and the others gathered together, discussing something.

"A visceral realm teacher? Or how do you arrange it?"

Zhou Qing heard a few words and walked over to ask:

"What do you mean by a teacher at the Zangfu realm? Someone else wants to join the martial arts school?"

"Junior brother, you are back."

Bai Ruoyue explained: "It's not that someone came to join us, but we feel that the martial arts school has grown stronger now, and some of the previous rules are not applicable now, so we want to change them."

"Establish new rules? Tell me about them."

"For example, apprentices. In the past, martial arts schools were divided into ordinary apprentices and advanced apprentices. In the future, Taibai Martial Arts School will definitely have more and more apprentices, including those at the tendon and vein level and the internal organs level. There will definitely be many who are willing to stay in the martial arts school to continue their studies."

"Dad has decided not to accept any more disciples, and Second Junior Brother and the others have also decided to be cautious in accepting disciples. Then, in the future, there will be more apprentices in the martial arts school, but fewer disciples. It doesn't feel good to have the same apprentices at the tendon and vein realm and the internal organs realm."

For a martial arts school, apprentices and disciples are different.

Strictly speaking, the former is like students in a school, when one group leaves a new group will come, while the latter is a true apprenticeship, and the relationship is forever bound.

“So in this regard, we are going to re-zone it.”

"Oh, I see. That is indeed necessary."

Zhou Qing nodded. Although Su Changan and He Feng were still at the internal organs stage, the future of Taibai Martial Arts School was foreseeable.

There will definitely be no shortage of apprentices at the Zang-Fu realm in the future, so it is better to set the rules early rather than forcing them to do something at the last minute.

"How do you plan to divide it?"

"The idea now is that those who have not entered the Skin and Flesh Realm are still ordinary apprentices, those who have entered the Skin and Flesh Realm are intermediate apprentices, and those who have entered the Tendon and Veins Realm are advanced apprentices."

"As for the Zangfu realm, their martial arts attainments are already very good. We are considering whether to let those Zangfu realm warriors who are willing to stay in the martial arts hall become teachers and teach apprentices, or to deal with it in other ways."

Zhou Qing thought about it and said, "Why not set up a position for martial arts masters within Taibai?"

"In the future, any Zangfu-level apprentices who are willing to stay in the martial arts hall will serve as Taibai martial arts masters. While continuing to study, they can also be responsible for teaching apprentices."

"Martial Master... this is possible."

"Let's set it this way first. There are other rules..."

Finally, this activity in which I offered suggestions for the development of the martial arts school came to a successful conclusion.
