"Ascensioners?"
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Xiao suddenly understood.
It seems that their sect leader finally made up his mind because the other side had an ascendant.
When they encounter ascendants, the Heavenly Derivation Sect will generally not stand idly by, after all, that is the Heavenly Derivation Sect's principle.
This sect leader was the true founder of the Heavenly Derivation Sect's principles.
Ouyang Xiao sighed inwardly. Although their sect leader was far away in the Eighteenth Heaven, he still managed to take care of things on Rock Peak without any hesitation.
"Good."
After the two finished speaking, the sect leader of the Heavenly Derivation Sect raised his right palm, as if he were contacting someone, but he did not use a communication stone to make contact.
Soon, a figure slowly materialized in the palm of the Heavenly Derivation Sect Master.
This person has a straight posture and a sword-like appearance. Just by standing there, he gives people the feeling of a sharp sword that has not yet been drawn.
He wore a long black robe, which gave him a calm and reserved air, and the two qualities blended perfectly on him.
" Changyan greets the Sect Master!"
The man faced the Sect Master of the Heavenly Derivation Sect, bowed, and clasped his hands in greeting, saying, "What are your orders, Sect Master?"
The "branch master of the Heavenly Derivation Sect" in Sea of Forgetfulness didn't seem too surprised by the sudden message from the sect master of the Heavenly Derivation Sect.
It seemed as if he was ready to be summoned by the Sect Master of the Heavenly Derivation Sect at any moment, even the folds in his robes exuded a sense of swiftness that allowed him to set off at any time.
The Sect Master of the Heavenly Derivation Sect spoke up, "Something has come up at Rock Peak. Could you come over here?"
"Yes."
After saying that, Ji Changyan's figure disappeared.
The two didn't exchange a single extra word.
It was decisive and efficient, without any hesitation or delay.
" Ouyang Xiao, get everything ready as soon as possible. I'll hand over the matters here to Ji Changyan later; he's enough on his own. The rest of you don't need to act rashly." The Heavenly Derivation Sect Master turned to look at Ouyang Xiao and said.
"Yes, Sect Master."
After speaking, the Heavenly Derivation Sect Master's figure suddenly disappeared from the main hall.
Jing Xuan.
"Master Ouyang."
Ouyang Xiao said, "You should go back first. I will notify you again after the teleportation array is completed. At that time, you can follow the sect leader to the Eighteenth Heaven."
Upon hearing this, Jing Xuan looked embarrassed and said, "Divine Master, is there anything I can do to help?"
Although he hadn't seen the list on the scroll that the sect leader had given to Master Ouyang, establishing a teleportation array that could travel extremely long distances was certainly no simple task.
Naturally, the use of precious materials is inevitable.
He hasn't even made many contributions to the sect yet, and the sect has already spent so many resources on him.
This favor weighed heavily on his heart, making him feel deeply burdened.
Seemingly seeing through Jing Xuan's thoughts, Ouyang Xiao smiled and said, "You don't need to feel any pressure. Since the sect leader values you, it means he has already decided to invest in you."
He patted Jing Xuan on the shoulder, his tone gentle, "The value you can bring out doesn't depend on the present, but on the future. The stronger you become, the more worthwhile this investment will be."
Like that Sect Master Ji Changyan from earlier, he is someone who has already followed the Sect Master in cultivation, while you are someone who is about to follow the Sect Master in cultivation.
Perhaps one day in the future, you too will be like Ji Changyan, directly obeying the sect leader's orders and serving the sect.
He paused, looking into Jing Xuan's eyes, "Besides, with your current cultivation level, you can't help us much right now. Your most important task is to wait; leave the rest to us Divine Masters."
Jing Xuan glanced at his own cultivation level, which was only at the ninth level of the Loose Immortal Ninth Heaven realm, and nodded. "Alright."
Indeed, compared to a top-tier Immortal Lord, his cultivation level was far too weak.
He clenched his fist and secretly vowed that once he reached the Eighteenth Heaven, he would cultivate with all his might and catch up with these predecessors as soon as possible.
After sending Jing Xuan away, Ouyang Xiao also left the main hall and went to a spiritual peak.
They were in the same spot as before, where the other divine masters had been waiting for quite some time.
Apart from Situ Jiansheng and another divine master, the others from last time are all here.
Upon seeing Ouyang Xiao arrive, the group quickly stepped forward.
Among them, Yuan Shaoqing was the first to speak, asking, "Has the Sect Master made a decision?"
"That's right." Ouyang Xiao nodded, then took out the scroll and placed it in front of them. "However, a temporary teleportation array needs to be built. This is the list of required materials."
The group leaned closer for a look and couldn't help but gasp in amazement. "Good heavens, each of these alone is priceless!"
The scroll was densely packed with dozens of materials, each labeled with its grade and quantity; a single glance was enough to make one's eyes dazzled.
"It's normal for such a large amount of material to be consumed when building a teleportation array over such a long distance. However, the sect leader said that he has most of the materials in his secret chamber."
Seeing the surprised expressions on everyone's faces, Ouyang Xiao comforted them, "Let's go to the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion and get the rest as quickly as possible."
Yuan Shaoqing showed bitterness. "Fortunately, it's just a one-time teleportation array; otherwise, even if we paid ten times the price, we might not be able to succeed."
He shook his head, adding with a wry smile, "The immortal stones burned just from activating this kind of teleportation array that spans across heaven and earth are enough to cover the expenses of our Heavenly Derivation Sect for several years."
Ouyang Xiao urged, "Alright, enough talk, let's get going."
"Oh, right, there's one more question." Just as the group was about to leave, Yuan Shaoqing turned to Ouyang Xiao and the others and asked, "The footage recorded by Feng Chiyu has been leaked. Did any of you accidentally release it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned.
They naturally knew what the image Yuan Shaoqing was referring to was—the record of the Five Dragons Mountain Lord and the Three Immortals Pavilion Guard Commander attacking someone else's immortal Immortal Palace and being killed in retaliation.
"No."
The group exchanged glances and all shook their heads.
They certainly wouldn't leak this kind of thing without permission.
Unless, they have a grudge against the master of that Immortal Palace.
After all, the Three Immortals Pavilion is backed by the Primordial Rock Peak Imperial Family.
Even if the footage isn't leaked, the royal family will eventually find it.
The key difference is that leaking something and not leaking it are two different things.
This photograph was originally recorded by people from their Heavenly Derivation Sect.
If the other party really investigates, they will definitely bear some responsibility.
One of the priests asked, "Could it be that the Feng Chiyu accidentally leaked out?"
Yuan Shaoqing said, "Impossible. I asked Situ, Feng Chiyu only showed that video to a few of us. Besides, that kid Feng Chiyu knows the seriousness of this matter. How could he dare to make the decision on his own and leak it out?"
He frowned and tapped his fingers on his knee. "That's strange!"
"Forget it, don't think about it anymore." Ouyang Xiao waved his hand and said, "If the royal family really wants to investigate, they will find out the culprit who destroyed the Three Immortals Pavilion sooner or later. It's just that this will probably be a little earlier."
He pondered for a moment, then looked up and said, "How about this, I'll speak to Situ later and have him instruct Feng Chiyu to go to the Immortal Palace and remind the people Immortal Palace, which can be considered 'making amends.' Our most important task now is to replenish the materials for the teleportation array."
Upon hearing this, the group nodded in agreement, transformed into streaks of light, and disappeared from the spiritual peak.
