Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

"Yuan Xiao said that as a Core Formation cultivator, even with some attainments in spiritual plant techniques, her voice ultimately carries little weight. To complete the task assigned by the sect, she needs to present something truly astonishing."

At this point, Tong Tianfu paused slightly, "She said there's a spiritual herb that Yuan Jing is helping her cultivate. If successful, it could serve as leverage to persuade a Nascent Soul True Person from Jixia Academy to take action."

Zhang Yuanjing raised an eyebrow: "There is indeed a remnant root that this disciple is cultivating. Could this be an extremely rare spiritual plant?"

Tong Tianfu nodded: "Indeed. Yuan Xiao said it was passed down from her clan, a spiritual herb that's almost extinct in this world, of very high grade. Even using her clan's most superior spiritual plant techniques, she can only stimulate a little vitality, not enough to truly sprout and be reborn. Yuan Jing, if your Thick Earth Skill can lend a hand in cultivating that rare spiritual plant, Yuan Xiao's chances of getting help from Jixia Academy will be almost certain!"

Only then did Zhang Yuanjing realize that the purple remnant root was not, as Su Yuanxiao had initially said, something she bought in a Xuan Tian Sect-affiliated immortal city, but a treasured heirloom from her clan.

Thinking about it, the purple spiritual plant looked extraordinary, not something you could just find while casually strolling through an immortal city! This seemingly playful woman is actually quite shrewd and patient, giving him that remnant root directly, without worrying about him damaging or losing it.

This woman clearly knew that he had given Liu Yuanqing a plant as a congratulatory gift for becoming the sect leader, but she didn't mention it to Tong Tianfu, only saying that it was being cultivated in his hands. He wondered what she was planning.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly: This trip to the Hengduan Mountains is fraught with many dangers, and one careless move could lead to death and the dissolution of his Dao.

Thinking of this, he said, "True Person, this disciple has something to report."

Seeing Zhang Yuanjing speaking seriously, Tong Tianfu couldn't help but look solemn: "Please speak."

Zhang Yuanjing said, "Before this disciple goes to the Hengduan Mountains, I need to go to the Candle Dragon Sect. I wonder if there is time for that?"

Tong Tianfu asked in surprise, "Why go to the Candle Dragon Sect?"

Zhang Yuanjing said, "This disciple has an old friend who went there decades ago, and I don't know how things are. This disciple wants to visit. That's one reason. More importantly, this disciple promised Senior Fire Crow to go to the Candle Dragon Sect with him before his lifespan runs out, because there is an opportunity to break through to Nascent Soul there!"

"An opportunity to break through to Nascent Soul?" Tong Tianfu was stunned, then stood up, "What opportunity? The Yin-Yang Eye?"

Zhang Yuanjing nodded: "So the True Person has also heard of it."

Tong Tianfu said, "The Candle Dragon Sect is not far southeast of our sect, so I've heard some rumors. However, it's said that the secret realm is in the most core area of the Candle Dragon Sect, and to get there, you probably need the permission of the sect's high-level members. Are you confident?"

Zhang Yuanjing said, "It's hard to say. If that old friend of mine has gained a high position in the Candle Dragon Sect, I might get my wish."

Tong Tianfu pondered for a moment, pacing back and forth in the hall, then suddenly stopped and said decisively, "Since there's a chance, then go try it. But don't be reckless! Although there are no Transformation Stage demon cultivators in the Candle Dragon Sect now, there is a divine beast in the sect that is very powerful and comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator. If you go there and don't get permission, don't force your way in. Even if you have an innate spiritual treasure, if you get trapped in a dangerous place, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape unscathed."

Zhang Yuanjing cupped his hands and said, "This disciple understands, thank you for your concern, True Person! I don't know when this disciple should set off? And how long can I go for?"

Tong Tianfu said, "The sooner the better. You and Daoist Fire Crow can set off as soon as you're ready. As for the time, I'll send a letter to Tian Cong and ask him to try his best to negotiate. Let's set a limit of ten years, and you must arrive at the second demon-suppressing city in the Hengduan Mountains within ten years!"

Upon hearing that he had a ten-year deadline, Zhang Yuanjing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then this disciple will take his leave first. After I've finished explaining things to my disciples, I'll return to the Xuan Yuan Hall. The position of Xuan Yuan Hall still needs the True Person to appoint someone."

Tong Tianfu asked, "Does Yuan Jing have any recommendations for the position of Xuan Yuan Hall Master?"

Zhang Yuanjing said, "The choice of person is up to the True Person. However, if you're choosing someone, this disciple thinks you need to consider a change, which is that the Xuan Yuan Hall has actually become a fortress at the forefront of the battle against the Abyss of Heavenly Demons, so the new Xuan Yuan Hall Master should probably have higher cultivation."

Tong Tianfu nodded: "What Yuan Jing said is very true, I will consider this as well."

After a slight pause, he said solemnly, "Regarding the matter of Yuan Jing's disciple being attacked in Wushui Ravine, I will naturally give Yuan Jing an explanation. This matter will have results soon, Yuan Jing, please wait and see."

After Zhang Yuanjing left, Tong Tianfu took out a voice transmission jade and said a word.

Half an hour later, Guo Yuanmeng walked into the hall.

"Disciple Guo Yuanmeng greets the True Person. Please instruct me, True Person!"

Tong Tianfu stood in the center of the hall, looking at him sternly, and said in a deep voice, "Yuan Jing's eldest disciple, Huo Zhengkai, was attacked in Wushui Ravine, do you know about this?"

Guo Yuanmeng did not dare to look into Tong Tianfu's eyes, and said with his head lowered, "This disciple knows."

"I heard that you've always been at odds with Yuan Jing? Could this matter be related to you?"

Guo Yuanmeng immediately raised his head and shook his head to deny it: "This disciple did not do anything. This disciple has some conflicts with Senior Brother Yuan Jing, but that's just between him and me, how could I attack his disciple. Although this disciple is mischievous, I can't do such a thing. The matter of Wushui Ravine was just an accident, not only this disciple, but all the enforcers of the Enforcement Hall did not expect that there was still danger hidden there."

"Then do you know that Yuan Jing personally went to Wushui Ravine and was ambushed by two Nascent Soul True Persons from the Abyss of Heavenly Demons and the Thick Earth Sect?" Tong Tianfu's eyes were like lightning, even with a slight hint of killing intent.

Guo Yuanmeng's whole body shook, and he said in disbelief, "Two True Persons ambushed him? This disciple doesn't know. This disciple absolutely did not collude with foreign enemies! This disciple has received great kindness from the sect, and even if I have resentment towards Senior Brother Yuan Jing, I will never do such a despicable thing!"

"Whose suggestion was it to arrange for Huo Zhengkai to go to Wushui Ravine?" Tong Tianfu looked at him coldly and asked in an unkind tone.

"No, no one suggested it, it was just an arrangement made by this disciple, and I didn't pay attention to the fact that he was Senior Brother Yuan Jing's disciple." Guo Yuanmeng hesitated for a moment, and said somewhat falteringly.

"No one suggested it? Things can be so coincidental, you sent Huo Zhengkai to Wushui Ravine, and two Nascent Soul True Persons were waiting there?" Tong Tianfu's voice became sharp, and the sound shook the hall, "Who is it? Are you trying to hide it for him?"

Guo Yuanmeng's face suddenly turned pale, and his eyes were full of anger, pain, disbelief, and confusion, and he stood there blankly for a while, at a loss.

Tong Tianfu turned around and said lightly, "A year later, Yuan Jing will replace me in guarding the second demon-suppressing city in the Hengduan Mountains. He will pass through Xuan Shui Immortal City and go north all the way. You will release this news, and then take care of the follow-up matters yourself!"
