This disciple swears to live and die with the Mystic Origin Sect!

Walking through the Weeping Marsh, all kinds of cultivation resources must be found on one's own.

Either you must engage in arduous spiritual practice and contemplation.

Or it was due to fortuitous opportunity.

Either ignore natural talent.

Otherwise, the Foundation Establishment stage would be an insurmountable chasm between mortals and cultivators.

It stopped 90% of the test takers.

Those who are selected from among ten thousand to enter the trial, and less than one in ten to complete it, must possess exceptional talent and aptitude.

Such a disciple is extremely unlikely to resort to opportunistic tricks or deceive the patriarch.

Firstly, their character and moral conduct prevent them from doing such things.

Secondly, reason and wisdom would not lead them to do such a thing.

Therefore.

Since Zhang Bo and the other first disciples entered the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers, over the past thirty years, more than three hundred disciples have scattered from the Weeping Marsh into the Heavenly Fire Domain of Biyang Lake to explore various territories for Lu Qingfeng, and there has never been a case of doing things half-heartedly.

"Currently, there are 314 people, divided into 80 groups of disciples, scattered throughout the Heavenly Fire Domain along the Weeping Marsh, without interfering with each other."

"On average, we can explore about a thousand miles of territory each year."

"As the Immortality Trial continues, more and more disciples are entering the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers, and the speed of exploration will become faster and faster."

Lu Qingfeng smiled, "In this way, when I reach the Spell Gathering Realm or the Solid Core Realm, I can use the detailed information these disciples have explored to quickly calculate and find the location of the Earth Baleful Yin Vein and even the Qiantian Astral Qi, and quickly refine the Ninefold Astral Baleful!"

These years.

As Lu Qingfeng's cultivation level continued to improve, his horizons also broadened.

The concept of the 'Azure Origin Sword Sect' has also deviated considerably from the initial idea—

At first, Lu Qingfeng's cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment level, and he thought he would stay in the Gathering Cloud Mountains for eighty or ninety years, believing that he would remain at the Foundation Establishment for eighty or ninety years.

Therefore, the initial idea was to use the disciples of the Azure Origin Sword Sect to collect information on various refining materials, spirit medicine, and secret and wondrous places such as the Hundred Herbs Garden from different regions.

It will help you cultivate faster.

You can gather all kinds of resources without leaving home.

However, plans can't keep up with changes.

Lu Qingfeng first traveled from the Gathering Cloud Mountains to the Profound Origin Water Realm, and then became True Disciple of the Mystic Origin Sect, gaining access to various cultivation resources through the Mystic Origin Sect's Hall of Rare Treasures. He then progressed further, achieving the ranks of Young Venerable and Sect Master, even improving his Root Bone talent and aptitude. He also created several other identities, ensuring he never lacked resources.

At least before Core Formation, there is no shortage.

Thus, the original plan for the 'Azure Origin Sword Sect' was abandoned.

Lu Qingfeng continued to revise and improve it.

Ultimately, the 'Nine Palaces Star Compass' became the 'Qingyuan Pearl'. The original intention of collecting materials was changed to exploring detailed information about various places in order to filter out the locations of the Earth Baleful Yin Vein and the Qiantian Astral Qi.

With the 'Seven Birds Lesser Evolving Numerology' in hand, along with this detailed information about the land, Lu Qingfeng could easily determine the location of any place containing Astral Fiend with a little calculation.

As for the disciples of the Azure Origin Sword Sect...

They entered the Weeping Marsh from Shangyang Country, undergoing trials ranging from ten to nearly twenty years, before entering the Heavenly Fire Domain, and eventually the Heavenly Extreme Domain further north of the Heavenly Fire Domain, to begin their cultivation journey.

With the Qingyuan Pearl in hand.

You can collect and explore various information from different regions to earn 'Merit'. Then, you can use 'Merit' to exchange for techniques such as Technique Method and Cultivation Method from the Qingyuan Pearl.

However, it cannot be exchanged for any physical goods.

Items such as Spirit Stone, Law Artifact, and elixirs cannot be exchanged.

There are several considerations involved.

Firstly, these disciples can earn or refine Spirit Stone, Law Artifact, and pills on their own, without having to waste precious 'Merit' to exchange for them from the Qingyuan Pearl.

Secondly, if exchanging for physical goods were permitted, Lu Qingfeng would need to set up Teleportation Array within the Qingyuan Pearl. This would not only consume more resources but also pose numerous hidden dangers.

Let's just eliminate it.

He doesn't need his disciples to collect various materials, nor do they need to exchange Spirit Stone, elixirs, Law Artifact, etc. with him.

After all.

What's even more precious about the Qingyuan Pearl are the dazzling array of thousands, even tens of thousands of magical methods. Elixirs and magical Law Artifact are easy to obtain, but profound and wondrous methods are hard to come by.

Therefore, the final version of the 'Azure Qingyuan Pearl' does not have Teleportation Formation, so it cannot transport any physical objects. However, it is completely unusable for Teleportation Array information about the surrounding area or various magical techniques.

Furthermore, Lu Qingfeng had made several arrangements within the Qingyuan Pearl.

This prevents others from using the Qingyuan Pearl even if they obtain it. Even if the investigation traces these disciples, it would only lead back to the Shangyang Country at most. The Weeping Marsh conceals all traces, and beyond it lies a vast and endless expanse.

Under such circumstances, Lu Qingfeng even cultivated the 'Invert-Grand-Void Glazed Wall', and had cultivated it to the minor completion level during his three thousand years of arduous cultivation in the Black Star Realm.

To obscure the secrets of Heaven, to disrupt the secrets of Heaven.

Even with Master Zhenjue of Six Dust Temple using Two-World Diagram, he was unable to find any information or whereabouts of the 'Yellow-Robed Old Monster,' let alone in the remote area near the Weeping Marsh.

Starting with the disciples of the Azure Origin Sword Sect, crossing the Weeping Marsh to find the Shangyang Country, then finding information about Lu Qingfeng, Lu Qingshan, and Lu Qingyu from nearly a hundred years ago among the millions of people in the Shangyang Country, and finally searching for the three people among the hundreds of millions of Spirit Birth in the 3,600-mile-long Biyang Lake region, is no different from finding a needle in Ocean.

After going through countless hardships to find the Mystic Origin Realm, Lu Qingfeng had even become True Person of Dharma Gathering, traveling all over the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers.

At that time.

Even if Primordial Spirit expert were to stand before him, Lu Qingfeng would dare to fight them.

"The disciples of the Azure Origin Sword Sect are of excellent character and temperament, and the Qingyuan Pearl contains various Secret Method. Under no circumstances would they reveal the existence of the Qingyuan Pearl."

Just like Lu Qingfeng, who wouldn't reveal the 'Login Ring'.

Two and Half Moon have passed since the battle Blazing Fire Isle.

Lu Qingfeng returned to Flying Cloud Island, and it took him about Half Moon.

This day.

As usual, Lu Qingfeng sat cross-legged to cultivate. Afterwards, he refined elixirs, crafted magical Law Artifact, and trained Dao Soldiers in the Dutian Dark Nether Strategies.

Finally, Visualization in mind.

The operation of the Qingyuan Pearl is not complicated, but the transmission of its teachings and the reception of information from the surrounding lands still require Lu Qingfeng's supervision. If a thought were to be separated from it, it would save a lot of energy.

While Visualization.

A crane flew in from outside the cave abode.

"Master?"

Lu Qingfeng awoke with a start from his seclusion and summoned the spirit crane with a wave of his hand. Gu Buyan rarely sent messages in this manner unless it was something urgent.

The crane transformed into Qingfeng, disappearing into my ears—

"Come to Sunset Peak immediately!"

Lu Qingfeng looked thoughtful, then got up and headed straight for Sunset Peak.

Sunset Peak.

Pill Convergence Hall.

"Disciple greets Master." Lu Qingfeng bowed to the white-haired Gu Buyan at the head of the table. Looking around, he saw that the hall was empty except for him and Gu Buyan.

"Don't look anymore."

"I have summoned you here today because there is a very important matter that cannot be known to outsiders, lest it cause a mutiny."

Gu Buyan's expression was somewhat solemn.

Lu Qingfeng frowned. "May I ask, Master, what has happened?"

Currently, in the White Bone Realm to the north, the White Bone Demon Sect is suppressed by him and dares not leave Cloudmist Mountain. Other Demon Dao True Person have either fled or died, and are no longer a threat.

To the east, in the Heavenly Wander Realm, Heavenly Wander Mountain collapsed completely, leaving only scattered debris.

For the Mystic Origin Sect, the situation should be very favorable, so why are they so fearful as if it were the end of the world?

Gu Buyan shook his head and said, "You've been in seclusion, so it's normal that you don't know about those things that happened two or three months ago."

Lu Qingfeng felt a little strange upon hearing this.

Two or three months ago, one thing after another was related to him, and all of them were beneficial to the Mystic Origin Sect.

How come—

Gu Buyan sighed and explained to Lu Qingfeng, "Two and Half Moon, the Illusory Wave Sea Rogue Person Blazing Fire on Blazing Fire Isle repelled three thousand Dao Soldiers and three Golden Core True Person from the Northern Nirvana Extermination Divine Sect. His strength is probably among the top in the Golden Core Realm. This person belongs to the Demon Dao, and his Devil Cultivation Method are truly terrifying."

Within the White Bone Realm lived a Daoist Evergreen, who hated evil as if it were his enemy. He had killed countless Demon Dao cultivators and suppressed the White Bone Demon Sect to the point that they dared not leave the mountain.

A few days ago, Han Ji the White Bone Demon Sect went to Blazing Fire Isle to request a Rogue Person Blazing Fire. However, on his return journey, he was killed by Daoist Evergreen.

This matter will likely enrage Rogue Person Blazing Fire.

Wu Jie and his group analyzed that there was a high probability that the Rogue Person Blazing Fire would help the White Bone Demon Sect deal with the Daoist Evergreen, and there was also a considerable possibility that he would imitate the Daoist Evergreen and kill righteous cultivators.

In this way, the Mystic Origin Sect will definitely be the first to be affected.

..."

After listening to Gu Buyan, Lu Qingfeng finally understood.

Turn out to be.

Han Ji entered Blazing Fire Isle to seek a Rogue Person Blazing Fire, but was refused by Rogue Person Blazing Fire, a fact unknown to outsiders. Later, he was killed by Daoist Evergreen at Heavenward Abyss, and people believed that Daoist Evergreen's actions would anger Rogue Person Blazing Fire.

The Mystic Origin Sect's Principle was—

The Rogue Person Blazing Fire had provoked the Nirvana Extermination Divine Sect, and was now outnumbered and desperately needed manpower. The White Bone Demon Sect had come to them of their own accord, and there was no reason to turn them away.

As long as we kill Daoist Evergreen, a single call to arms will surely draw countless Demon Dao experts and even the demon kings of Heavenly Wander Mountain to our side. Though they are scattered sands gathering together, they will still bolster our power.

However, the whereabouts of Daoist Evergreen are hard to find.

If the Rogue Person Blazing Fire cannot find him after a long time, he might follow the example of the Daoist Evergreen and enter the Mystic Origin Realm to kill the righteous True Person, thereby forcing the Daoist Evergreen to show himself.

It must be said that this possibility is not small when it comes to Demon Dao cultivators.

"Even if the Rogue Person Blazing Fire directly kills the Daoist Evergreen and doesn't personally enter the Mystic Origin Realm to cause trouble, the demons from the White Bone and Heavenly Roam Realms will both flock to us, and the two realms will merge into one. Our Mystic Origin Sect will still be the first to bear the brunt."

Gu Buyan of his beloved disciple's strange thoughts, continued, "In order to continue the Mystic Origin Sect's legacy and preserve its flame, the sect has finally decided to select disciples with outstanding aptitude and loyalty to the sect from among the True Disciple of each peak and hall, and send them outside the Mystic Origin Realm. This way, in the event of the worst-case scenario, the lineage will not be cut off."

"..."

Lu Qingfeng pursed his lips, unsure of what to say.

Seeing his disciple's silence, Gu Buyan assumed the atmosphere was heavy and smiled, "This is just the worst-case scenario, the safest approach. As the Hall Master of the Pill Convergence Hall and a Spirit Void cultivator, you are on this list. You can choose a disciple from Flying Cloud Island to leave Mystic Origin Realm together."

"The evacuation of disciples will be divided into three teams. One team, led by you, will go into hiding after leaving the Mystic Origin Realm. If the Mystic Origin Sect is safe, return to the sect. If something truly goes wrong, do not return until you have sufficient strength."

Gu Buyan looked at the disciple in front of him, placing high hopes on him.

If it weren't for the unexpected turn of events with the Rogue Person Blazing Fire, Lu Qingfeng, whose talent in both cultivation and alchemy was unparalleled, would have undoubtedly become a pillar of the new generation of the Mystic Origin Sect and its successor a thousand years from now, a hundred or two hundred years later.

However, the situation is ever-changing.

Now, due to a series of unexpected events, we have no choice but to send him out of the Mystic Origin Realm.

To be left for later.

Perhaps they will be the Mystic Origin Sect's greatest hope.

"Master, please stop talking."

"This disciple swears to live and die with the Mystic Origin Sect!"

As Gu Buyan was filled with complex emotions, he suddenly heard his disciple's clear voice, which resonated throughout the entire Pill Convergence Hall.
