You Won't Find It Strange Later!
Gu Yuanqing was unaware that his entry had caused changes in the Ancient Realm, and of course, even if he had known, he wouldn't have cared.
In the past, he would deliberately conceal his identity to avoid trouble.
Today, it's no longer necessary.
Within the within the Exquisite World, apart from the Primordial Divine Sect, no one else could cause him the slightest harm.
If his identity is exposed, perhaps the only downside is that he will no longer be able to take the opportunity to train the Qian Yuan Realm.
If other Boundary Domain knew that there was Yin-Yang Great Cultivator within the Qian Yuan Realm, who would dare to provoke him?
However, it was only a matter of time before people found out, because the Qian Yuan Realm had never deliberately hidden Gu Yuanqing's existence.
Everything unfolded naturally, and we gradually integrated into and understood the entire Exquisite World within this situation.
"The foundation of this Mountain Array is called the Nine Twists Soul Stirring Great Formation. It was chosen here because this mountain range is compatible with this town. From now on, let's call this place the Nine Twists Mountain Range." Gu Yuanqing stood on high ground, looking at the Formation that covered an area of nearly a thousand miles, and was quite satisfied.
It took a full seven days to rearrange the Array Formation. As long as the Array Formation is activated normally, even Yin-Yang Great Cultivator would find it difficult to breach. It is more than sufficient as the Great Qian Dynasty's base in the Ancient Realm.
Moreover, Spirit Locking Magic Array has been set up on the main peak where Gu Yuanqing is located. With this Formation, even if one leaves the Ancient Realm for several years and re-enters, one can still enter from the same spot without having to go through the Ancient Realm's own Formation area.
Li Chengyi has spent the last few days practicing the Secret Technique taught by Gu Yuanqing that are applicable to the Ancient Realm.
In addition, Gu Yuanqing summarized the techniques for fishing for Dao Soul and gave him a fairly good set of Fishing Gear.
Li Chengyi didn't have Gu Yuanqing's experience in Heavenly Fishing. He had to figure everything out slowly, and even with Gu Yuanqing's guidance, it would still take a lot of effort.
Gu Yuanqing did not intend to force things. While extracting Dao Soul from the Boundless River, he was also honing Li Chengyi's skills in using his Divine Soul and True Essence. He could give Li Chengyi Dao Soul, but there were some things he needed to experience for himself.
"Are you ready?" Gu Yuanqing asked with a smile.
Li Chengyi shook his Fishing Gear, and his True Essence instantly reached the hook, condensing a Dao Bait in a flash. He said confidently, "There shouldn't be any problems."
Gu Yuanqing glanced at it, made no comment, smiled, and tossed over a jade token, saying, "This contains the Method Formula to control the Mountain Array. Take a look when you have time. Also, spend a day Refinement the Formation's core. The day after tomorrow morning, I'll take you to the Boundless River."
"Yes!"
After a day, Li Chengyi had gained a basic grasp of the Nine Twists Formation.
Before dawn, Gu Yuanqing led him straight to Dongyuan City.
Using Spatial Art, they arrived at their destination in less than an hour, covering tens of thousands of miles.
He landed directly in Teleportation Array from the air, attracting the attention of many people.
Gu Yuanqing glanced around and then ignored them, closing his eyes to rest and wait for the Teleportation Array to activate.
Li Chengyi, on the other hand, looked around with great curiosity.
Those who could pass through the Teleportation Array were all Void Heaven Cultivator; he had never seen so many before.
These people were dressed in different ways, clearly from different Boundary Domain.
Suddenly, someone's gaze lit up slightly as they looked at Li Chengyi, and they quickly walked over.
The man appeared to be middle-aged, dressed in a blue robe, with a Purple leaf adorning the cuff of his sleeve.
"May I ask if you are His Majesty Li Chengyi of the Great Qian Dynasty Qian Yuan Realm?"
The middle-aged man cupped his hands and bowed slightly, using his Void Heaven Domain to shield himself from speaking.
Li Chengyi asked with some surprise, "And who are you, sir?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I am Xue Pingyan, Elder of the Purple Extreme Pavilion. It is normal that Your Majesty does not recognize me. I have never met Your Majesty, but I have heard my Senior Brother in the sect mention you."
Li Chengyi cupped his hands and smiled, "So it's Daoist Friend from the Purple Extreme Pavilion! A pleasure to meet you!"
Li Chengyi was quite polite. As fellow Void Heaven Cultivator, the Purple Extreme Pavilion held a similar status to the Great Qian Dynasty in the Purple Nether Realm, except that one existed as Sect and the other as Dynasty.
Even though the other party was very polite, Li Chengyi couldn't really put on airs as Emperor, after all, this wasn't within the Great Qian Dynasty.
"How could I possibly be so fortunate as to meet Your Majesty in this Ancient Realm? Is Your Majesty also preparing to travel to the Boundless River?" Xue Pingyan asked.
Li Chengyi glanced at Gu Yuanqing, nodded, and smiled, "I am indeed planning to try my luck."
Xue Pingyan seemed to only then notice Gu Yuanqing. After a moment's hesitation, her expression became respectful. She clasped her hands and asked, "Could this be Senior Gu Yuanqing in person?"
Gu Yuanqing glanced at Xue Pingyan indifferently.
Xue Pingyan's expression became extremely awkward. He barely managed to maintain his composure, but his heart was already in turmoil.
"Is this what Celestial Person is? It seems that nothing can escape the notice of someone in the Void Heaven Realm."
Xue Pingyan felt as if all her plans and schemes had been laid bare before her eyes.
It wasn't actually his imagination, but rather that Gu Yuanqing's Soul Searching Technique, the Divine Intent Spirit Analysis Art, had already undergone a deduction, and this Spell Art naturally possessed divine effects that were previously difficult to achieve.
Although he could see through a person's memories without Soul Search, he could vaguely sense their thoughts and intentions. In other words, his Divine Soul had become more acute, especially in situations where the difference in cultivation levels was so great. Gu Yuanqing could see through Xue Pingyan's intentions at a glance.
Li Chengyi sensed the awkwardness of the situation, smiled, and said, "It is indeed my father."
These words immediately gave Xue Pingyan a way out, and she quickly bowed and said, "Junior Xue Pingyan greets Senior Gu. Please forgive my rudeness."
Gu Yuanqing didn't expose him, and said calmly, "Ignorance is no excuse."
Xue Pingyan gave an awkward smile and left, making an excuse that he didn't dare to disturb her any further. The scene he had just witnessed made him afraid to linger in front of Gu Yuanqing, as if even a few more glances from her would make him stop breathing.
Many people around Gu Yuanqing also looked at him; after all, Celestial Person being would attract attention wherever he went.
There were also people secretly discussing Gu Yuanqing's origins, but they were using the Void Heaven Domain and the technique of sound transmission to cover it up.
Time passed slowly, and more and more people gathered around the Teleportation Array.
This is normal, after all, the people of the Boundless River are the place that people from Exquisite World go to the most.
Compared to Divine Soul Great Medicine and some extraordinary weapons, the opportunities offered by Dao Soul are far greater.
Then another Dao Body fell from the sky.
After seeing the person's clothes, the area around the Teleportation Array became much quieter.
Li Chengyi secretly sized up the newcomer and asked telepathically, "Father, who is this person? The people around him seem somewhat afraid of him."
Gu Yuanqing chuckled and replied, "You won't be surprised anymore. The Sanyang Sect is the third-ranked Sect in the within the Exquisite World. Judging from his attire, he must be Elder of the Sect, First Tribulation of Heavenly Change."
