Hearing the Shameless Cat's words, Yang Zhen was taken aback and asked in surprise, "What do you mean? You mean there really are other inheritances inside the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin?"
The Shameless Cat chuckled and said, " The Nine Dragons Great Saint is renowned. He's said to be a very easy-going fellow, humble and low-key, and he especially likes to mentor promising younger generations. Just think, wouldn't such a person leave something good for future generations?"
Hearing this, Yang Zhen grinned and said, "Now that you mention it, the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin might actually contain other things. But right now, the most important thing is to find Senior Sister and the others. We can come back for the good stuff inside the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin later."
The Shameless Cat glared at him and said, "Kid, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If the Great You Dynasty manages to break those restrictions, you'll have gained nothing."
Yang Zhen chuckled. This Shameless Cat's way of speaking was becoming more and more like that of a time-traveling cat.
That's good too. If we take the Shameless Cat back to the Blue Planet in the future, it won't embarrass itself like an idiot everywhere. But we must tell it not to speak carelessly, otherwise it might become known to the whole world in no time.
Yang Zhen looked the Shameless Cat up and down, making the Shameless Cat's scalp tingle. The cat asked in surprise, "What kind of look is that?"
"What that person said is right. That's something belonging to the Great Saint. If it were to fall into the hands of someone so easily, it wouldn't be anything of value. So we don't need to rush."
What if we recklessly barge in and encounter people from the Great You Dynasty?
Yang Zhen wasn't afraid of one or two Half-Step Great Saint coming. With his current cultivation level, one or two Half-Step Great Saint wouldn't be able to stop him. However, this would inevitably waste time. If Lu Chenghui and the others also blindly followed the trend and entered the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin Land, it would be even more difficult to find them.
Along the way, Yang Zhen shared these concerns with Han Yan'er and Shameless Cat. Han Yan'er nodded and said, "I think it would be better to go find Sect Leader Lu first."
The Shameless Cat pouted. Although it wanted to go and see what was going on, Yang Zhen and Han Yan'er both disagreed, so it had no choice but to follow behind them and head towards White Cloud Mountain.
Only after leaving the Great Fang Realm did Yang Zhen feel that the surrounding environment was somewhat familiar. He couldn't help but sigh and say, "This Cultivation World is becoming more and more unpredictable. Just a few days ago, White Cloud Mountain was a perfectly good mountain, but now it has been split into two parts, one in the east and one in the west, with a continent appearing in between. Just how many other incredible things are there in this world?"
The Shameless Cat chuckled, surveying its surroundings, and said, "There are many unknown or surprising things in this world. Kid, you used to cultivate in this kind of barren, godforsaken place?"
Yang Zhen glanced at the Shameless Cat and said, "Shut your crow's mouth. What do you mean by 'a barren, godforsaken place'? The Youzhou Continent used to be much more shabby than it is now."
Upon hearing this, both the Shameless Cat and Han Yan'er were stunned. The Shameless Cat, in particular, gasped and muttered to himself, "Goodness, it's even more barren than it is now, and you actually managed to successfully Foundation Establishment. Now I believe you're a genius."
Yang Zhen glared at the Shameless Cat. This bastard doesn't even know how to compliment someone; is this even a compliment?
It's terrifying to be uncultured!
Han Yan'er, standing to the side, also looked around with curiosity, saying, " That Shameless Cat is right. It's truly unbelievable that a sect could be established in a place like this."
Yang Zhen shook his head, deciding not to stoop to the level of these two city folks.
White Cloud Mountain may be a bit barren, but even in the most difficult and challenging places, people can survive. This is an unchanging truth of the universe. At most, cultivation might be slower, but living a life of peace and tranquility, who can say this place is bad?
Yang Zhen, on the contrary, felt a sense of belonging, and even the scent of White Cloud Mountain made him feel comfortable.
Before long, Yang Zhen and the others arrived at the place where Yang Zhen had previously set up the formation, and their expressions immediately changed.
The formation was now in ruins. A look of seriousness flashed in Yang Zhen's eyes as he said in a deep voice, "It seems that the Shangyuan Sect has not been doing well lately. I hope the former sect leader and senior sister are safe and sound."
Han Yan'er frowned and said, " Yang Zhen, the formation here seems to have been deliberately damaged, not naturally."
The array here was all set up by Yang Zhen alone. What Han Yan'er said about the Dao of Nature is absolutely true. The array was destroyed by human intervention. If it had been destroyed at the Opening Heaven, it would not be in such a dilapidated state as it is now.
Could something have happened to the Shangyuan Sect?
If the restrictions and formations were deliberately destroyed, then the person who came was at least Celestial Phenomenon Realm cultivator. When did the Shangyuan Sect offend someone like that?
The higher they climbed, the heavier their minds became.
"Kid, did you notice? The restrictions here were just broken recently."
Yang Zhen nodded, said nothing, and walked up the mountain with a sullen face.
Han Yan'er and Shameless Cat looked at each other behind Yang Zhen, both of them able to sense that Yang Zhen was angry.
How terrifying is Yang Zhen when she's angry?
"This Shameless Cat will even hit himself when he goes crazy," the scoundrel muttered to himself as he followed Yang Zhen up the mountain, silently mourning for the person who had offended the Shangyuan Sect for a few seconds.
Clearly, these people were not lucky; their attempt to harm Yuanzong at this time was destined to end in utter misery.
The Shameless Cat followed behind Yang Zhen, looking on with curiosity, muttering to itself, "Damn, I wonder who's so unlucky."
White Cloud Mountain, Shangyuan Sect, Lu Chenghui, and others were in the Shangyuan Hall, their faces ashen as they stared at the two people sitting casually in the central hall.
"Gentlemen, our Shangyuan Sect has always been law-abiding and has no ambition whatsoever, nor have we offended anyone. What do you mean by this?"
The two people in the central hall, a man and a woman, were both cultivators at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm Eighth Heavenly Layer, just Final Step away from becoming Half-Step Great Saint.
Upon hearing this, the woman in the man and woman chuckled and said, "This must be Lu Chenghui, the former sect leader. And the pretty young lady beside us must be Liu Ruoning, the current sect leader of the Shangyuan Sect?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present changed their expressions, especially Liu Ruoning, who frowned and stepped forward, saying, "I am Liu Ruoning. May I ask how you two seniors are addressed, where you come from, and what brings you here?"
The woman giggled, looking flamboyant and dazzlingly white, and stared at Liu Ruoning with a playful expression, saying, "Sister, I am a disciple of the Great You Dynasty. You may not have heard of the Great You Dynasty, but there is one person you must have heard of."
"Oh?" Liu Ruoning's heart sank. It was not that they had never heard of the Great You Dynasty. In the past two days, because of the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin incident, the name of the Great You Dynasty had almost worn out the Shangyuan Sect members' ears.
Liu Ruoning and the others were truly surprised that the Great You Dynasty, instead of trying to break the Nine Dragons Pulling a Coffin's restriction at this time, would send two such powerful disciples to the Shangyuan Sect, a small sect with almost no presence.
Seeing the puzzled look on Liu Ruoning's face, the woman seemed even more amused. A slight, enigmatic smile curved her lips as she spoke, "This name is... Yang Zhen!"
"What!"
Upon hearing the name Yang Zhen, everyone in the Shangyuan Hall gasped in surprise.
