The Advantage Is Mine, Everything Is Under Control!

Xuanqing Sect.

Yan Changkong arrived at the Siyuan Hall of the sect with a heart full of excitement.

This place was not actually a secret location.

It was where the Xuanqing Sect stored the relics of past masters and enshrined the founding ancestor; during major festivals, disciples were even allowed to visit and pay their respects.

"Hoo--"

At this moment, Yan Changkong's heart surged with emotion, his blood boiling!

However, he knew that the more critical the moment, the more one needed to remain calm and composed!

What kind of things would the ancestor Lin Feng leave behind?

Needless to say, it had to be something of great importance, otherwise, he would never have had Ye Xi make the trip personally.

Yan Changkong did not rush to find it.

He first followed the customary practice, personally cleaning the inside and outside of the Siyuan Hall, offering tributes to the founding ancestor, and lighting incense.

Then, he knelt and kowtowed respectfully.

After finishing all of this, Yan Changkong finally followed the method Ye Xi had described and located a hidden compartment.

"What is this?"

Yan Changkong took a box from the hidden compartment, his hands trembling slightly.

Click--

Opening it, he saw a jade slip resting quietly inside, crystalline white and shimmering with flowing light.

Yan Changkong picked it up to examine it for a moment, then exclaimed in shock:

"A Jade Slip Dao Scripture!"

This was a recording method from the ancient era that had nearly gone extinct.

It was a technique used by ancient masters to record profound cultivation methods and insights.

Although he had known that whatever ancestor Lin Feng left behind would be extraordinary, a Jade Slip Dao Scripture was truly too precious.

However, once he thought of Lin Feng's current status and strength, he felt relieved.

He was the peerless Immortal Great Emperor, recognized by the world today as having strength that surpassed all throughout history, never having tasted defeat.

It was no surprise that he possessed or could refine a Jade Slip Dao Scripture!

After taking a deep breath, Yan Changkong picked up the Jade Slip Dao Scripture and sent a wisp of his divine sense into it.

The next moment, he felt as if he had entered a mysterious realm.

His entire body was enveloped in an incredibly profound state, and a piece of obscure, difficult-to-understand scripture appeared within his sea of consciousness.

But immediately after, he seemed to have gained enlightenment.

That was because Lin Feng had not only left behind the cultivation method but had also refined some of his own cultivation insights into the jade slip.

This was to make it easier for future generations to better comprehend and understand the essence of the technique.

This was nothing short of a legacy!

The legacy of an Immortal Great Emperor was a heaven-sent opportunity; if word of this got out, it would inevitably cause a sensation.

It might even lead to a storm of blood...

Time passed bit by bit.

Yan Changkong did not know how long he had spent in that mysterious state.

When he opened his eyes again, he discovered it was already late at night.

Outside the window.

A bright moon hung in the sky like a jade plate, casting a cold, clear radiance.

A cool night breeze blew in.

Yan Changkong seemed to fully wake up then, his face filled with excitement as he joyfully exclaimed: "Xuanqing Immortal Inquiry Scripture!"

"Cultivated to completion, it points directly to the Tribulation Transcendence stage!"

He paused, then added: "It is even possible to seek the Dao and become an immortal!"

This was a technique Lin Feng had created himself, based on the Xuanqing True Art.

It was vastly superior to the original cultivation method of the Xuanqing Sect.

Originally, the Xuanqing True Art of the Xuanqing Sect, while not bad, could only be cultivated to the Body Integration stage at its peak!

It couldn't even touch the threshold of the Mahayana Realm.

The gap between many ordinary sects and top-tier powers actually lay in their cultivation methods.

Because this directly determined the upper limit of a cultivator!

Now, all of that was different.

Furthermore, the Jade Slip Dao Scripture not only recorded the Xuanqing Immortal Inquiry Scripture but also contained various techniques and divine abilities.

It also included cultivation methods suitable for ordinary disciples to polish their foundations.

Most of these were formed by taking the original techniques of the Xuanqing Sect and filling in the gaps to create entirely new cultivation methods.

While their power increased significantly, they would not attract too much attention because they shared the same origin; only those who cultivated them would be able to tell the difference.

After Yan Changkong calmed down, he walked to the window and said with deep emotion:

"Ancestor Lin Feng truly has painstaking intentions!"

"He has calculated every single detail, even having a clear grasp of how the people of the world would react!"

At this moment, Yan Changkong felt an overwhelming sense of admiration for Lin Feng in his heart!

If Lin Feng had handed these techniques to the Xuanqing Sect at the very beginning, they might not have been able to protect them!

At that time, everyone's eyes were focused on the Xuanqing Sect.

But in the current world of cultivation, after the changes and upheavals of this period, the major forces have already accepted the rise of the Xuanqing Sect.

They have slowly shifted their focus elsewhere!

At this time, the pressure the Xuanqing Sect would face while cultivating these new techniques would be much smaller.

Moreover, after several instances of building momentum, and with Ye Xi and the others exposed to the eyes of the world, who would still dare to touch the Xuanqing Sect?

They would truly have to weigh the consequences.

Could they withstand the wrath of Great Emperor Nicholas?

With this thought in mind, Yan Changkong felt his mind clear. He walked out of the main hall and arrived at the sect's council hall.

Ignoring the fact that it was late at night, he immediately summoned the disciples on night watch and said:

"Go quickly!"

"Invite the Grand Elder to come out of seclusion, and then go invite the First Elder to come for a meeting!"

Only now did Yan Changkong understand how much weight the Xuanqing Sect held in the heart of Ancestor Lin Feng!

Before he returns, it must be protected well!

The techniques he left behind are for the sect; how could he keep them all to himself?

Yan Changkong murmured, "The Grand Elder has long been on the verge of a breakthrough, and now with the addition of the Xuanqing Immortal Inquiry Scripture."

"A breakthrough to the Void Refinement realm is just around the corner!"

He paused, then thought of the various elders; if they could cultivate the Xuanqing Immortal Inquiry Scripture, coupled with the massive influx of resources the sect now possessed.

As long as a few decades passed, the overall strength of the Xuanqing Sect would see a massive leap.

Even if it still could not compare to some super sects.

It would gradually draw closer.

A moment later, the First Elder Chen Xiu was the first to walk into the hall; judging by his appearance, he clearly hadn't slept all night.

He had been waiting for this very moment!

After all, he was in the know; he was present when Ye Xi told Yan Changkong.

Immediately after, the Grand Elder also arrived on the wind.

The three of them discussed in the council hall until dawn before dispersing.

When they left, everyone was refreshed and beaming with joy.

The ancient clan, the Jiang Clan.

The Jiang Clan is located in the Central Province and is an ancient cultivation clan with a long heritage, occupying numerous territories, spiritual veins, and blessed lands.

It is a behemoth in the cultivation world that deserves its reputation.

Its profound foundation is definitely not something that a family like the An Clan, which rose to power rapidly, can compare to.

In a secret grotto-heaven within the Jiang Clan's ancestral grounds.

The spiritual energy here is dense, filled with strange mountains and rocks everywhere, resembling a land of immortals.

At this moment, however, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

A faint scent of killing intent permeated the air, feeling incredibly bleak.

"It has been confirmed!"

"Jiang Youlong, Zuo Qingtian, and Hua Hongyi have perished, their bodies and souls completely destroyed!"

A figure shrouded in a black robe spoke in a hoarse voice:

"In this world today, the only one capable of doing this silently and having the motive to do so is Ye Xi!"

As the words fell, a silence ensued.

Surrounding them were over a dozen other figures, all shrouded in black hooded cloaks.

Their faces were obscured, appearing quite mysterious.

Only one person sat at the head of the table; he appeared to be a youth, yet his hair was entirely silver, his gaze sharp as a blade, and his bearing extraordinary.

He was none other than the current master of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Wuji.

Beneath their cloaks, pairs of eyes fell involuntarily upon Jiang Wuji.

They had seen the fate of the An Clan.

It was utterly miserable.

Even with the Venerable Heavenly Punishment appearing in person, and the three ancestors of the An Clan refining the Alien Seed, they could not escape their great calamity.

They certainly did not want to suffer the same fate themselves.

That was the reason for today's gathering at the Jiang Clan, to discuss a method of response.

Jiang Wuji wore a smile, his expression as calm as an ancient well.

He sat at the head of the table, scanning the room with a grin before speaking indifferently:

"I have already grasped the schemes of the Immortal Great Emperor."

"Do not panic, fellow Daoists."

Jiang Wuji said with absolute confidence, "According to my calculations and analysis, although the An Clan has been destroyed, however..."

As he spoke, his tone turned cold; he extended a palm and then suddenly clenched it into a fist.

"The advantage is still on our side, and everything remains under our control!"
