Jade Cauldron True Person Begins Refining Yang Xuan's Body, Manjushri and Samantabhadra Descend Upon Chentang Pass!

Golden Glow Cave, Jade Spring Mountain.

Inside the secret chamber, Jade Cauldron True Person pointed at the enormous pool before him and said:

"Yang Xuan, quickly take off your clothes and jump into the pool!"

Yang Xuan asked doubtfully, "Master, what is in this pool?"

"Why is the water in the pool all sorts of colors?"

"And such a powerful medicinal fragrance is wafting from it?"

Jade Cauldron True Person said, "Yang Xuan, what is in this pool is not water."

"This pool contains multicolored spirit liquid, top-grade spirit liquid specially refined by your master to temper your body."

"Only in this way can your physical body be raised further, allowing you to cultivate the cultivation techniques of our Jade Void Palace!"

"Yang Xuan, why haven't you taken off your clothes yet? What are you dawdling for?"

Seeing Jade Cauldron True Person rebuke him, Yang Xuan hurriedly removed his clothes and jumped straight into the pool.

Seeing this, Jade Cauldron True Person lightly pointed a finger at Yang Xuan.

He transmitted the body-tempering technique to Yang Xuan.

Jade Cauldron True Person said, "Yang Xuan, follow the body-tempering technique I imparted to you, and use the spirit liquid in the pool to forge your physical body!"

Yang Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, Master!"

Afterward, Yang Xuan circulated the body-tempering technique Jade Cauldron True Person had imparted to him and absorbed the spirit liquid from the pool.

Seeing Yang Xuan enter a cultivation state, Jade Cauldron True Person left the secret chamber.

Great Shang, Ji Province Commandery.

Two figures sped through the void toward Chentang Pass.

At the entrance to the Commander-in-Chief's Residence of Chentang Pass.

The two figures descended before the gates of the Commander-in-Chief's Residence of Chentang Pass.

When the guards stationed at the Commander-in-Chief's Residence of Chentang Pass saw the two figures suddenly descend, each of them faced a great enemy.

"Who are you people? How dare you trespass into the Commander-in-Chief's Residence of Chentang Pass!"

In an instant, the guards stationed at the Commander-in-Chief's Residence of Chentang Pass surrounded the two newcomers tightly.

At this moment, one of the two men in the center, a middle-aged Daoist, said, "Do not misunderstand. We have come to pay a visit to Li Jing, the Commander-in-Chief of Chentang Pass!"

"Please inform him for us."

Hearing that they had come to visit the Commander-in-Chief, the guards' expressions finally eased somewhat.

However, none of the guards lowered their vigilance. They remained on full alert as they watched the two men.

The guard captain said, "Who are you? Where do you come from?"

The two men said, "We are Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra!"

"We come from the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain and are disciples of the Heavenly Dao Saint Yuanshi Tianzun!"

When the guards stationed at the Commander-in-Chief's Residence of Chentang Pass heard that the two men came from the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain and were disciples of Yuanshi Tianzun, the way the guards looked at them instantly became filled with boundless reverence.

Who in the Primordial World had not heard of the Heavenly Dao Saint Yuanshi Tianzun?

The guard captain then said, "Please wait here. I will report to the Commander-in-Chief."

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra nodded.

After speaking, the guard captain hurriedly turned and entered the Commander-in-Chief's Residence.

At this moment, Li Jing, the Commander-in-Chief of Chentang Pass, was in the main hall keeping Yin Shiniang company.

Just then, the guard captain at the gate entered the main hall.

The guard captain respectfully saluted Li Jing. "Reporting to Commander-in-Chief, two Daoists have arrived at the gates of the residence and wish to visit you!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jing and Yin Shiniang raised their heads and looked at the guard captain.

Li Jing said in surprise, "Two Daoists?"

"Did they say what their Daoist titles were, and where they came from?"

The guard captain said, "Commander-in-Chief, they did."

"One is Daoist Manjushri, and the other is Daoist Samantabhadra!"

"These two Daoists came from the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain and are disciples of the Heavenly Dao Saint Yuanshi Tianzun!"

"What? They came from the Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain?"

"They are also disciples of the Heavenly Dao Saint Yuanshi Tianzun?"

The guard captain nodded. "Yes, Commander-in-Chief!"

Li Jing thought to himself, "What do two disciples of Yuanshi Tianzun want with me at Chentang Pass?"

"Besides, Jin Zha and Mu Zha left for Chaoge with one of His Majesty's Three Corpse incarnations some days ago."

"Could they be here for the child in my wife's womb???"

In an instant, Li Jing thought of this possibility.

Because one of the Human Emperor's Three Corpse incarnations had previously told him about the Investiture of the Gods Tribulation.

After pondering for a moment, Li Jing figured out how to reply to Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra.

Li Jing said, "All right, take me to meet them!"

The captain of the guards respectfully replied, "Yes, Commander!"

With that, the captain led Li Jing toward the main gate.

When Li Jing reached the gate, he saw two middle-aged Daoists dressed in Daoist robes.

Li Jing sensed an exceedingly terrifying power from them.

At once, Li Jing was certain that these two Daoists had to be disciples of Yuanshi Tianzun from Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain.

Li Jing then cupped his hands and said, "You two Daoist brothers have come from afar. Please come into the residence for a chat!"

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra hurriedly returned the salute with cupped hands. "Commander Li, we have come uninvited and disturbed you. We hope you will forgive us!"

Li Jing said, "What are you saying, Daoist brothers? Please come into the residence for a chat!"

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra nodded with smiles.

Afterward, Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra followed Li Jing into the Commander's Residence.

In the reception hall of the Commander's Residence.

Once Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra had taken their seats, maids from the Commander's Residence served them tea.

After the maids withdrew, Li Jing looked at Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra.

Li Jing asked, "May I ask why you two Daoist brothers have come to see me?"

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra smiled. "Commander Li, we have come for Jin Zha and Mu Zha."

Upon hearing this, Li Jing immediately rose to his feet and stared at Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra.

Seeing Li Jing's movements and expression, Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra were somewhat puzzled.

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra asked, "What is wrong, Commander Li?"

Li Jing said, "You two Daoist brothers, you have come too late."

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra shot to their feet in alarm.

"What? We came too late???"

Li Jing nodded. "That's right!"

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra hurriedly asked, "Commander Li, what do you mean?"

Li Jing said, "You two Daoist brothers, my eldest son Jin Zha and second son Mu Zha left with a middle-aged man some days ago."

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra turned pale in shock. "What? Jin Zha and Mu Zha left some days ago?"

"Commander Li, do you know where Jin Zha and Mu Zha went?"

Li Jing shook his head. "I don't know!"

Still unwilling to give up, Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra hurriedly asked, "Commander Li, then you should at least know who that middle-aged man was, right?"

Li Jing nodded. "That, I do know!"

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra hurriedly asked, "Who was he?"

Li Jing said, "That middle-aged man called himself Yang Mei Great Immortal!"

Li Jing repeated what Di Xuan had told him to Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra.

Daoist Manjushri and Daoist Samantabhadra cried out in alarm, "What? Yang Mei Great Immortal?"

"Commander Li, are you certain that middle-aged man called himself Yang Mei Great Immortal???"

Li Jing said, "I'm certain!"

"Because that middle-aged man said that Jin Zha and Mu Zha would return to reunite with us in ten years."

Afterward, that middle-aged man took Jin Zha and Mu Zha away!
