The Young Jiang Yan
This man is actually enjoying himself!!!
Thunder Qilin stared wide-eyed at the guy in front of him who was bathing in heavenly lightning and looking completely blissful. His eyes were practically popping out of their sockets.
After dozens of bolts of lightning passed, Cao Youqian stretched his limbs and said with a smile, "That was powerful! It's been a long time since I've experienced a lightning bath of this level. It's a pity it's still a bit lacking, otherwise I could have reached the next level."
"Great... Great Shaman, who exactly are you?"
Thunder Qilin asked timidly.
Cao Youqian looked at the Thunder Qilin wagging its tail, reached out and patted its head, and said with a smile, "Didn't you always want to go to that place where the strange phenomenon occurred?"
Although Thunder Qilin didn't know why the person in front of him knew his thoughts, he still nodded.
"To tell you the truth, I came from that very place. And don't call me the Great Shaman; I am the Ancestor of Body Cultivation in this world!"
As Cao Youqian spoke, a terrifying pressure emanated from his body. A Faxiang tens of feet tall stood between heaven and earth. The terrifying aura, combined with the scene that had just occurred, made him seem like a Devil God incarnate.
"Little Lei greets his master."
At this moment, Thunder Qilin was completely convinced. It knelt down and bowed to the man before it, a thought popping into its mind: Could this man be a descendant of the legendary Primordial Devil God? If so, it wouldn't be shameful for it to become his mount.
Get up.
Cao Youqian helped Thunder Qilin up and said with a smile, "Today I'm going to travel the world. When I'm tired of playing, I'll naturally take you back to the place where the light of destiny descended."
Thank you, Master.
Thunder Qilin said excitedly, never expecting that he would be able to go to that place one day. He thought that if such a descendant of a Devil God could appear there, there must be even more powerful beings there.
Cao Youqian asked, "Can you shrink a little?"
"Sure."
After Thunder Qilin finished speaking, his body shrank several times in an instant, becoming the size of an adult water buffalo.
"Good, that's settled."
Cao Youqian's face showed satisfaction. He then leaped onto the Thunder Qilin, stroked its horn, and said, "Let's go."
"Master, where are we going?" Thunder Qilin asked, looking puzzled.
"Go wherever you want. If you want revenge, take me with you," Cao Youqian said with a smile, as if he didn't care about anything in this world.
"Okay."
Thunder Qilin was already pondering in his mind which divine beast he should seek revenge against first.
Meanwhile, at the Slanting Moon Mountain.
A boy carrying a bamboo basket stopped in his tracks, looking at the towering mountain before him. He glanced around, thinking, "Could that Dao Light have landed on this mountain? Judging by the looks of it, people must live there. Should I go up?"
After thinking for a while, the young man decided to go up the mountain to take a look, lest he miss out on some opportunity.
He walked a few steps and quickly arrived at a stone tablet. Looking at the words on the tablet, he subconsciously read them aloud, "The Dao-Seeking Sect teaches all without discrimination. Could it be that a peerless master lives on this mountain? I wonder if that master understands pharmacology?"
After muttering something to himself, the boy continued walking up the stone steps. The sun shone on him, gradually lengthening his shadow.
On Slanting Moon Mountain, Ji Jiuwu had just finished his morning prayers and was preparing to chop wood and fetch water when he heard his master's voice.
"Jiuwu, someone will be visiting our Dao-Seeking Sect today. Go and receive them."
"Promise."
After bowing in the direction of Chu Feng's palace, Ji Jiuwu headed towards the path leading down the mountain.
The person hasn't arrived yet, so he plans to continue his cultivation for a while.
Time passed by, and around noon, Ji Jiuwu heard a series of footsteps. He opened his eyes and looked in the direction from which the footsteps came, and saw a boy carrying a basket on his back walking up the mountain.
The boy who went up the mountain also saw Ji Jiuwu. As the eldest grandson of the clan, he had seen a lot of the world, but he had never seen anyone as extraordinary as the boy in front of him. He thought that only the descendants of gods in legends could have such demeanor.
The young man immediately bowed and said, "Jiang Yan pays respects to the descendant of the gods."
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuwu quickly stood up and said, "Friend, there's no need for such formalities. I am not a descendant of any deity, but merely a minor cultivator from this Slanting Moon Mountain. Besides, I have only been here for a few days."
Jiang Yan was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, thinking: Could it be that I've come to the wrong place?
But this place before us is not a place that Human Race can live in at all; it is comparable to the Dragon Palace and the Shaman God Hall that my grandfather talked about.
He paused for a moment, then continued, "I see. It seems I've gone to the wrong place. I'll head down the mountain now."
"Wait a minute."
Ji Jiuwu called out to the other person and then asked, "May I ask why you have come to this place, friend?"
Jiang Yan made no attempt to hide anything, and slowly explained, "A few days ago I saw auspicious omens descending upon this place, so I came to investigate."
"Then you haven't gone to the wrong place."
Ji Jiuwu smiled and said, "The auspicious signs you saw earlier were the light of destiny bestowed upon my Dao-Seeking Sect by Heaven. Your presence here indicates that you are destined to be with my Dao-Seeking Sect. Come, let's go together to pay our respects to our master."
???
Jiang Yan was puzzled by the other party's enthusiasm. In his mind, the appearance of such an auspicious omen would surely attract the scramble of all races, and even among Human Race, there would be conflict. Why would the person in front of him want to share the auspicious omen with him?
But since we're already here, let's go see what this auspicious omen looks like.
He followed Ji Jiuwu toward the magnificent palace before him. The main hall was empty, but the splendor of the palace captivated him, and he found himself unconsciously immersed in its beauty.
"Please wait a moment, my friend. Master will be up soon."
Ji Jiuwu's words pulled Jiang Yan back from his reverie, and he nodded somewhat awkwardly at the other party.
Just then, a figure appeared out of thin air in the hall. Jiang Yan was startled by the sudden appearance of this person. He looked up at the person but found that the person was shrouded in Dao Light and he could not see the person's appearance at all.
"Disciple greets Master."
"This junior pays respects to the Shaman God."
No need for formalities.
Chu Feng heard their words and uttered two words indifferently.
As soon as those two words were uttered, Jiang Yan finally saw the person sitting on the throne, but after just one glance, he dared not look any longer.
Chu Feng also sized up the young man before him. The young man's aura was in no way inferior to Ji Jiuwu's. He then asked, "Young man, I already know that you came to the Dao-Seeking Sect. Now I can tell you that you are too late. The light of fortune has already dissipated. If you want to see that light of fortune again, there is only one way."
