Zhang Detian's Plan to Unify the Heavenly Dragon Sea Domain
Zhang Xuanchen took note of everything Gong Jun said, knowing these things in advance was definitely the right thing to do.
Finally, Gong Jun looked at Zhang Xuanchen and whispered:
"Clan Leader Zhang, the Endless Sea is far more dangerous than we imagined."
"Even Spirit Transformation Venerable can perish if they are unlucky."
"Therefore, you must not underestimate this trip just because you have broken through to the Spirit Transformation."
Zhang Xuanchen replied solemnly, "Thank you for the reminder, Pavilion Master Gong."
He suddenly remembered something and asked:
"By the way, I remember a few years ago, Shuang'er's elder brother, who is also the Luo Clan Young Master, came to the South Sea Immortal Continent."
"At the time, he seemed to have only one Nascent Soul Peak cultivator with him."
"Doesn't he know the dangers of the Endless Sea?"
Upon hearing this, Gong Jun chuckled lightly, "Of course he knows."
On the surface, the Luo Clan Young Master only brought two Nascent Soul Cultivators with him.
"But in reality, that Flying Boat itself is Fifth-Rank High-Grade Spirit Tool, with five Fifth-grade Spirit Formation engraved within its hull."
"In addition, the Flying Boat also contains Fifth-Rank Spirit Tool of the Luo Clan, and even the avatar of Spirit Transformation expert."
With these trump cards in hand, we naturally have nothing to fear from the dangers of ordinary seas.
Zhang Xuanchen scratched his head. "I see."
"The Luo Clan's heritage is truly profound."
Gong Jun smiled and said, "The top forces in the Central Land Immortal Continent that have survived to this day naturally all have their own trump cards."
Zhang Xuanchen picked up his teacup and gestured to him.
"Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Pavilion Master Gong. Shuang'er and I will be careful."
After chatting for a while, Zhang Xuanchen suddenly looked at Gong Jun with a half-smile.
"However, Pavilion Master Gong hasn't left yet; surely it wasn't just to chat with me about the Endless Sea?"
Before Gong Jun could reply, Zhang Xuanchen continued:
"You want the Demon-Detecting Mirror?"
Gong Jun downed the Spirit Tea in one gulp, "Hahaha, as expected, nothing can be hidden from Clan Leader Zhang."
Zhang Xuanchen laughed loudly and replied:
"It's already prepared for you."
As he spoke, he took out a sandalwood brocade box from his Myriad Spirit Ring and placed it on the stone table.
Gong Jun opened the brocade box and saw two small blue and white mirrors lying quietly inside.
The mirror surface shimmered with light, exuding a pure and mysterious aura.
It was the Demon-Detecting Mirror.
Gong Jun's eyes lit up with joy, and he quickly asked:
"Clan Leader Zhang, what kind of spiritual item would you like to exchange?"
Zhang Xuanchen shook his head.
"Unnecessary."
"Brother Bai, Sister Yan has helped the Zhang Family many times over the years. Without their help, the Zhang Family would not have reached where it is today."
"These two Demon-Detecting Mirror are just a small token of my appreciation."
"How can one accept spirit objects?"
Gong Jun quickly declined, saying, "Clan Leader Zhang, these two Demon-Detecting Mirror are of extraordinary value; I really cannot accept them for nothing."
"This item is also extremely important to Horizon Restaurant. If we accept it based solely on a few personal connections, I, Gong, will find it difficult to accept."
Zhang Xuanchen waved his hand, his tone firm:
"Pavilion Master Gong truly feels apologetic, after I leave, please help my Zhang Family find the heavenly materials and earthly treasures needed to refine the Golden Core Pill."
Seeing his resolute attitude, Gong Jun knew that further refusal would seem pretentious, so he could only solemnly accept the brocade box.
"Since that's the case, I'll shamelessly accept it."
Zhang Xuanchen nodded, "That's more like it."
The two chatted for a while longer before Gong Jun got up and left.
The next morning.
Zhang Xuanchen arrived at the Lineage's Main Hall.
At this moment, Zhang Detian was sitting in the main seat of the Main Hall, handling clan affairs.
Upon noticing Zhang Xuanchen's arrival, he quickly stood up.
"Seventh Uncle, you've arrived."
As he spoke, he prepared to give up the main seat.
Zhang Xuanchen stepped forward and placed his hand on his shoulder, saying:
"Xiao Tian, you are now the Clan Leader."
"As long as you remain in the Lineage, this position can only be held by you."
Zhang Detian was slightly taken aback, then scratched the back of his head and gave an embarrassed smile:
"I understand, Seventh Uncle. I'm just not used to it yet."
Zhang Xuanchen sat down in the seat next to him and asked with a smile:
Now that the enthronement ceremony is over, what are your plans for the future?
Zhang Detian pondered for a moment, then answered seriously:
"Seventh Uncle, I think it's time to unify the Heavenly Dragon Sea Domain."
"Now the Demon Calamity is spreading covertly, and the major forces are scattered and fighting their own battles when trouble arises, making them vulnerable to being picked off one by one by the Demon Seed."
"Only by unifying the Heavenly Dragon Sea Domain, integrating the forces of all parties, and unifying commands can we better deal with future Demon Calamity."
Zhang Xuanchen's eyes flickered slightly. "Continue."
"Furthermore, on the edge of the Dark Night Forest, you discovered a hidden Peach Blossom Spring Space."
"The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi there is abundant, and the environment is suitable for cultivation."
Moreover, its location is well-hidden, making it extremely difficult for outside cultivators and Demon Beast to spot.
"I plan to select a group of disciples from the clan who have mastered the Breath Concealment Technique to a high level and send them to the Peach Blossom Spring Space to develop their skills."
"On the surface, Xuanxiao Mountain is considered the Ancestral Grounds of the Lineage."
"Secretly, the Peach Blossom Spring Space serves as a secluded retreat for the Zhang Family Lineage, a precaution against unforeseen circumstances and a way to ensure their future."
After listening, Zhang Xuanchen's eyes showed approval.
"Good."
"You little rascal, you have more ideas than I do."
Zhang Detian quickly replied, "Seventh Uncle, you flatter me."
"This is not an overstatement."
Zhang Xuanchen's expression was serious as he said in a deep voice:
"For a Lineage to have a long-lasting legacy, it cannot only think about how to develop, but also needs to consider the worst-case scenario."
"Having a solid foundation in the open, and a way out in the shadows."
Only Lineage can truly achieve both offensive and defensive capabilities.
"The same applies to unifying the Heavenly Dragon Sea Domain."
"But you must remember, unification does not mean forced annexation."
Zhang Detian nodded, "Seventh Uncle, I understand."
"If cooperation and dependence can be the main focus, that would be ideal."
The Zhang Family can offer them some benefits and respect.
"If any force secretly colludes with the Demon Seed, or insists on obstructing the unification of the world..."
A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. "Destroy them!"
Hahaha! Great!
"That's bold!" Zhang Xuanchen nodded in satisfaction. "When it's time to be firm, you have to be firm!"
My Zhang Family is no longer the crumbling Golden Core Family it once was.
In this world, goodwill needs to be supported by strength, and peace needs to be protected by swords.
"You are now the Zhang Clan Patriarch; you cannot simply be someone who rests on your laurels."
"Expand when it's time to expand, act when it's time to act, but every step must take into account the tribe's capacity to withstand it."
Zhang Detian cupped his hands in greeting, "Seventh Uncle, rest assured, I will act with caution."
Zhang Xuanchen added, "As for the Peach Blossom Spring Space, the number of people who know about it must be strictly controlled."
Do not reveal this.
"I originally came here to remind you to secretly develop a Peach Blossom Spring Space."
It seems you had this planned all along.
"That puts my mind at ease."
"Go for it!"
"If you encounter something you can't decide, you can consult with the Immortal Ancestor."
"Before I leave, I will leave three avatars within the Lineage."
"It's a way of leaving the Lineage with a few trump cards."
