The next day,
Grand Bamboo Peak, Shoujing Hall.
Wang Quan Yan ate lunch.
At the same time, he pondered something in his heart.
Only three months remained until the Seven Meridians Martial Arts Tournament.
He wondered how he should reasonably plan these three months.
Devote all his time to cultivation?
He was already at the Peak of the Ninth Layer of the Jade Purity Realm.
No matter how much he cultivated,
without some opportunity, it would be difficult for him to break through to the Supreme Purity Realm in a short time.
After all,
the bottleneck between Jade Purity and Supreme Purity was quite formidable.
Cultivation alone would not suffice.
He also needed a certain degree of enlightenment.
At that thought,
Wang Quan Yan thought of the Heavenly Tome within the Blood Dripping Cave of Mount Kongsang. As the greatest opportunity in the Zhu Xian World, the Heavenly Tome's origins were exceedingly mysterious. It unified the concepts behind the cultivation arts of Buddhism, Daoism, and the demonic path—
Cultivating the Heavenly Tome?
That was equivalent to cultivating the arts of Buddhism, Daoism, and the demonic path!
For Wang Quan Yan,
the Heavenly Tome was something he absolutely had to obtain!
Perhaps the opportunity for him to break through to the Supreme Purity Realm lay within that volume of the Heavenly Tome in the Blood Dripping Cave.
"Cultivation can wait for now."
"Since that is the case, I should first practice some spells and techniques."
Wang Quan Yan thought to himself.
His current offensive methods were still rather limited.
He only had Sovereign Sword Intent and Heaven and Earth One Sword.
Although neither of those offensive techniques was weak, and he could completely follow the path of breaking ten thousand techniques with a single sword, Qingyun Sect also had some sword techniques worth learning, such as the Divine Sword Controlling Thunder True Spell...
In truth, Wang Quan Yan also wanted to learn Ghost Slaying God.
Unfortunately,
only Wan Jianyi knew that sword art at present.
Even if he wanted to learn it, he would have to find the right opportunity.
Wang Quan Yan secretly shook his head.
"The offensive power of Sovereign Sword Intent is not the least bit weak, and its consumption is low. It can be used in prolonged battles; Heaven and Earth One Sword is tremendously powerful, but its consumption is great, so it can serve as a finishing move..."
"Still,"
"one finishing move definitely is not enough."
"I should find an opportunity to learn the Divine Sword Controlling Thunder True Spell from Master."
Wang Quan Yan thought to himself.
Tian Buyi's mastery of the Divine Sword Controlling Thunder True Spell was also quite profound.
It was enough to rank among the very best in the entire Qingyun Sect...
With that in mind,
Wang Quan Yan saw that everyone on Grand Bamboo Peak had finished eating and prepared to rise and tell Tian Buyi about it.
However,
just then,
"Clang—"
A clear sword cry suddenly rang out from beyond Grand Bamboo Peak.
Everyone turned to look.
They saw a streak of sword light fly in from afar and land at the mountainside of Grand Bamboo Peak.
That sword cry just now
had actually been meant to notify the people of Grand Bamboo Peak that a guest had arrived.
Now,
the visitor had landed at the mountainside and chosen to walk up on foot. This fully conveyed respect and courtesy, unlike Qi Hao and Lin Jingyu from not long ago...
The two of them had flown their swords straight to the entrance of Shoujing Hall.
It was no wonder Tian Buyi had been angry.
But he could hardly quibble with two juniors, so he could only put on a sour face.
At this moment,
seeing that a guest had arrived,
Tian Buyi's expression remained unchanged.
He casually instructed, "Clean up."
At his words,
Du Bishu and Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly cleared all the bowls and chopsticks from the table.
Wang Quan Yan had originally intended to say something.
But seeing the situation,
he could only sit back down for the time being.
"Tap—"
Not long after, footsteps sounded outside the hall.
Then,
the people of Grand Bamboo Peak heard a respectful voice ring out from beyond Shoujing Hall. "Chang Jian of Tongtian Peak requests an audience with Uncle-Master Tian."
At this,
Tian Buyi slightly raised his brows.
He thought that disciples of Tongtian Peak really did have manners.
What sort of thing was Qi Hao?
His mind was full of schemes!
"Ahem."
Tian Buyi gave a light cough.
He glanced at Song Daren, seated below him, without saying a word.
As the chief disciple of Grand Bamboo Peak,
Song Daren naturally understood his own master. Seeing Tian Buyi signal him with his eyes, he immediately understood what to do.
He solemnly rose to his feet.
Then he went outside the hall. "Senior Brother Chang Jian? Please, come in—"
Chang Jian entered Shoujing Hall.
He glanced at the people of Grand Bamboo Peak around him, then quickly lowered his head and bowed to Tian Buyi and Su Ru.
"Disciple Chang Jian."
"Greetings, Uncle-Master Tian and Aunt-Master Su..."
As soon as he finished speaking,
Chang Jian gave another slight bow to the disciples of Grand Bamboo Peak around him. "Greetings, junior brothers."
At this,
the disciples of Grand Bamboo Peak rose and returned the greeting.
Tian Buyi looked at Chang Jian before him and nodded with some satisfaction. "Nephew Chang, did Sect Leader Senior Brother send you here on some matter?"
"In reply to Uncle-Master Tian,"
Chang Jian respectfully bowed and said, "Master sent this disciple to Grand Bamboo Peak with a message. He asks Junior Brother Wang Quan Yan to make a trip to Tongtian Peak."
"Xiao Yan?"
Upon hearing this,
Tian Buyi and Su Ru exchanged glances.
Although they did not know why True Person Dao Xuan wanted to see Wang Quan Yan, they could roughly guess. Perhaps it was because Wang Quan Yan had recovered his cultivation, and he wished to see him...
At this moment,
Wang Quan Yan himself was also somewhat puzzled.
True Person Dao Xuan wanted to see him?
"Xiao Yan."
"Since Sect Leader Senior Brother has asked you to go to Tongtian Peak, then go."
Tian Buyi lightly waved his hand.
"Yes, Master."
Wang Quan Yan stood and bowed.
Though he was somewhat puzzled,
he also knew that True Person Dao Xuan would certainly not harm him.
After all—
in the entire Zhu Xian World,
who could truly be considered a man of the Righteous Path? It could only be True Person Dao Xuan!
True Person Dao Xuan genuinely thought only of the world and Qingyun Sect. Perhaps his thoughts ran deep, but which sect leader did not have a calculating mind? If one were to speak of someone like Wan Jianyi...
one could only say that he was less suited than Dao Xuan to be sect leader.
Wang Quan Yan followed Chang Jian, flying on swords all the way toward Tongtian Peak.
Along the way, he tried making conversation with Chang Jian.
He wanted to see if he could find out why True Person Dao Xuan was looking for him.
Unfortunately,
Chang Jian seemed not to know either.
"Junior Brother Wang Quan Yan."
"I do not know much about this matter either, but I suspect it may be related to that sword strike from the night before last."
Chang Jian spoke meaningfully.
By now,
the entire Qingyun Sect had heard of it.
Everyone knew that the sword strike from the night before last had been unleashed by Wang Quan Yan of Grand Bamboo Peak. With that sword, he had declared his return once more and utterly shocked the entire Qingyun Sect—
At this moment,
Chang Jian carefully studied Wang Quan Yan before him.
The youth's robes fluttered in the wind. His face was handsome, his brows sharp as swords and his eyes bright as stars. His black hair fell loosely over his shoulders, and his tall, imposing figure resembled a sharp sword yet to leave its sheath!
"Whoosh!"
Faintly,
Chang Jian could even see a trace of brilliant golden sword intent in the youth's eyes.
That wisp of sword intent was exceptionally sharp.
It made him unable to look directly at it.
Chang Jian had merely glanced at it before feeling a slight sting in his eyes.
At this,
he felt somewhat moved.
Junior Brother Wang Quan Yan truly was a peerless prodigy.
Even setbacks could not strike him down. They would only make him stronger.
As the saying went—
How could golden scales remain in a pond? Once they met wind and cloud, they would transform into a dragon!
