Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The middle-aged man returned to the bow of the ship. Soon, the light curtain on the ship fluctuated and then disappeared without a trace.

"Fellow Taoist Tang, please come in!"

Tang Ning flashed and came to the deck. She bowed and said, "Thank you, friend. I didn't know your name."

"My dear, Pang Hun, why did Fellow Daoist Tang miss the date with Fellow Daoist Wen's fleet?"

"It's a long story. By the way, Fellow Daoist Pang, I don't know how old Dao Ding is now."

Pang Hun glanced at him in surprise: "What does fellow Taoist Tang mean by this?"

"It doesn't mean anything else. It's just that I encountered an unexpected danger before and was trapped in a dark place. I don't know how long it took."

"Today is the seventh day of September in the year 1287, Daoding."

"1287?" Tangning was shocked, saying that she had stayed in that golden Gangfeng space for fifty-six years.

Although there is no distinction between day and night inside, and it is difficult to calculate the time, it cannot be so long!

He originally thought that he would only spend two or three years in it at most, but unexpectedly it turned out to be a full fifty-six years. This gap was too big.

There is only one possibility, that is, he was unconscious for too long, so such a long time passed unknowingly.

"That's right, Fellow Daoist Tang, what's wrong with you?" Pang Hun asked curiously when he saw his expression change.

"Oh! It's nothing, time went a little faster than I thought."

The two walked towards the cabin, where seven men and women stood.

"These are all members of the fleet." Pang Hun introduced.

Tang Ning nodded with everyone: "Thank you fellow Taoists for allowing me to take this ship."

"Fellow Taoist Tang, why did you miss the schedule with Taoist Friend Wen Qingyun's fleet? I wonder what happened?" asked a pale-faced man.

"I didn't come here to hunt monsters with them, but I had other personal matters to deal with, so I parted ways with them after arriving at this sea area. Originally, we had agreed on a date and place to meet, but I was delayed due to something. catch up."

When everyone saw what he said, they did not continue to ask what was causing the delay. After all, it involved personal privacy.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Pang, will your fleet continue to hunt monsters in this sea area? If you continue to hunt monsters, I will not accompany you for the time being. Let's agree on a place and gather there. It also saves me from disturbing you guys," Tang Ning said.

Hunting monsters is not fun. The Netherworld Sea is vast and vast. There are countless powerful high-level monsters deep in the sea. If you are unlucky and encounter a fifth-level monster, the whole army may be wiped out. , he was not willing to take this risk in vain.

"We are preparing to return." As he spoke, the Xuanling Ship burst into light and sped away.

………

Two months later, a Leizi ship came from the north and slowly stopped in mid-air. The Xuanling ship took off and went straight to its deck.

The sun was shining brightly, the sky was clear, and high in the sky, a huge Leitz ship was sailing rapidly.

The calm sea below surged into turbulent waves, one huge wave after another, it was spectacular, but a group of monsters were migrating.

Tang Ning leaned on the side of the ship and saw this scene. She couldn't help but remember that when she was doing Yizong in Xingang, she went out to sea for the first time and saw a huge migration of a group of boneless walruses. At that time, she was astonished. She felt that the world was vast, and she was like an ant. Her heart was full of Curiosity and awe.

Now the scene is exactly the same, but my heart is as calm as an old monk.

Scenes from the past flashed through his mind, and Tang Ning watched the huge migrating army of monster beasts gradually move away, just like the past.

He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and smiled, as if a barrier in his chest was shattered. As he turned around, the spiritual power in the Linghai Cave surged out, like floodwater pouring from a dam, traveling through all his limbs and bones.

At this moment, he actually broke through the bottleneck of the middle stage of Yuanying and reached the realm of the late stage of Yuanying.

………

Taopuli City is bustling with people coming and going.

In front of the Wutong Pavilion of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, a ray of light fell down, revealing Tangning's figure.

"Senior, what are your orders?" Inside, a female cultivator quickly came forward and saluted.

"I want to go to Jinan County. Wanggui Pavilion will arrange a Lezi merchant ship for me."

"Senior, please wait a minute, let me look it up later." The woman took out the book in her hand and flipped through a few pages: "In one month, there will be a Lezi ship from our headquarters to Jinan County. The cost is 12 million spirit stones. ”

"Okay." Tangning handed over the spirit stone, signed the contract, and settled in the attic backyard.

………

Time flies, and more than a year has passed by in a blink of an eye.

Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged on the deck and was practicing meditation with her eyes closed when she suddenly heard a loud roar.

He stood up and looked around, only to see several Wind Spirit ships chasing and fighting fiercely not far away. On one side of the ship hung the flag of the Canglang Sect, and on the other side was the skull flag, representing the legion of the Netherworld Sea.

The two wind spirit ships fired at each other with their giant cannons, and several monks were fighting nearby. The magical power they exerted enveloped the world, and various colors of light intertwined inside, which could be seen for hundreds of miles around.

The space ripples caused by the cannonballs of the Wind Spirit Ship surged around like ripples layer by layer. When they affected the moving Lezi Ship, they were absorbed by the ship's defense light curtain, sinking like a stone into the sea without any reverberation.

The Leizi ship passed by from high altitude and quickly left the area. This was the merchant ship of the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce, so naturally it would not meddle in such nosy matters.

Tangning watched the two sides in the fierce battle getting smaller and smaller in the field of vision, and couldn't help but frown. He set off from Jinan County and took the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce's Leizi boat all the way through Linzi County, Pingyuan County and Donglai County. Scenes like this have already been seen. I can't get used to it.

Due to the uprising in the three counties of Beihai, Le'an and Pingyuan, they became independent one after another, causing chaos. The situation was very unstable, and war was normal.

But he didn't expect to see such a chaotic fighting scene after arriving in Donglai County. This was the second battle he saw after entering the jurisdiction of Donglai County.

The first time was when passing through Shigang County, where I saw the seventh column of Taixuanzong fighting with the powerful Jia family of the local family, and now I saw the Skeleton Corps under Netherworld Sea fighting with the Canglang Sect.

What exactly happened here? Tang Ning had a bad feeling in her heart. In the decades since she left, the situation in Donglai County may have changed greatly.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why Taixuanzong had conflicts between aristocratic families in Shigang County.

After entering Yuanxian County, Canglang Sect was fighting with Nether Sea again.

If the actions of Taixuan Sect and Canglang Sect are linked together, it means that Netherworld Sea and the Cultivation Family have united together to attack Xuanmen of Donglai County at the same time.

But how could the practicing family in Donglai County form an alliance with Netherworld Sea?

Tangning was filled with doubts and confusion, and she couldn't figure out what was going on.

The Leizi ship passed through the clouds and fog, sailing towards Xuantang City at high speed.

…

At night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. In the Tianniu Mountains, in front of a huge light curtain, a ray of light came out, and Tang Ning's figure appeared. He turned his hand and the talisman disappeared into the room.

Not long after, the light curtain melted into a gap.

He flashed and entered the inner room. After registering at the Guard Hall, he went straight to Huangyuan Cave Mansion.

But unexpectedly, it was empty. The originally majestic and majestic cave had now been razed to the ground, and there was nothing left.

Seeing this, Tang Ning couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, knowing that something must have happened unexpectedly, so she went to the meeting hall of the seventh team directly under the jurisdiction.

In the room, a man was sitting on the floor, practicing with his eyes closed. When he noticed someone entering, he opened his eyes and saw Tang Ning. A look of surprise flashed across his face, and he quickly bowed and saluted: "Uncle Tang, you are back."

This person is none other than Xu Zhongyuan, a disciple of the seventh team.

Tang Ning nodded slightly: "I went out for something and encountered some trouble. I just rushed back today. I just went to Master Huang Yuan's cave and saw that the place was razed to the ground. Did something happen?"

"Master Uncle, Master Huang Yuan's great uncle has passed away."

"What's going on?" Tang Ning had actually thought of this. As the manager of the alliance, how could Huang Yuan's cave be demolished unless a major change occurred.

"More than twenty years ago, when our headquarters was supporting Huanglong City, we were attacked by rebels. Master Huang was unfortunately killed in that battle."

"Huanglong City? Rebels?" Tang Ning was even more confused. What happened? Could it be that Xuanmen of Donglai County had declared independence.

"The disciple stayed at the headquarters at that time and did not participate in this mission. He only heard what others said afterwards and did not know much about the specific situation. As for the rebels in Huanglong City, he refers to the rebellious cultivating families in Huanglong City. Master Uncle must not know yet. After the Liu family declared independence, they successively broke up with Jiang Chang's family, and then openly turned against Jiang Yunming. Under the influence of the Liu family, many cultivating families in Donglai County turned against each other, including Huanglongcheng. "

Tangning nodded and did not ask further on this issue: "Who is the captain of the headquarters team now?"

"After Master Huang was killed, Master Ren Quan, the inspector of the headquarters, took over his position. Master Xu Ziyi, the deputy captain of the headquarters, served as the inspector, and Master Xu Mengyuan served as the deputy captain."

"Are there any changes to our team?"

"This..." Xu Zhongping glanced at him and hesitated to speak.

"Tell me! Is it because I haven't been in the alliance for a long time that the superiors have removed me from my position?" Seeing his hesitating expression, Tang Ning probably guessed what happened. Ren Quan took over as the captain of the direct brigade. Position, so-called emperor and minister, not to mention that so many things happened in the alliance, and he was not in the position for a long time, he could be justified in dismissing him.

"The alliance has appointed Master Jiang Ru as the captain of the team."

"I understand." Tangning didn't say anything more, turned around and left the main hall, and returned to her cave in the light.

Inside, a petite woman appeared with a happy smile on her face, like a blooming flower.

"Master, you are finally back. I was worried to death." Gu Yuanya walked up to him in one stride.

When Tang Ning saw that she was fine, a small stone fell in her heart.

"What are you worried about? Isn't my master's life soul stone safe?"

"Didn't you say you could come back within three years at most? Why did it take so long? Did something happen?"

"It's too long to say. Let's not talk about being a teacher for now. A lot of things seem to have happened in the alliance during my absence?"

"You don't know yet! After the Liu family declared independence, they completely fell out with Jiang Chang and his family, and openly supported Jiang Yunming, which was tantamount to treason. In addition, the Netherworld Sea organization wanted to take advantage of the chaos to expand its territory and influence, resulting in Xuanmen has been in constant conflict with them, and now the entire Donglai County has become a mess.
