The Honored One Came of His Own Accord

The moment the white-haired man landed on Golden Ao Mountain, all living beings within a hundred miles fell into a deep sleep.

Looking out from the Great Void at this moment, the outline of Golden Ao Mountain was no longer visible; the place was now just a vast expanse of darkness.

Su Yao, who had just returned to the cave, found the wooden box emitting a bright white light, but he was puzzled.

At this moment, a profound voice rang out, as if from a deity:

"Su Yao, come out! Su Yao, come out!"

But when Su Yao heard it, his body moved uncontrollably outwards.

Su Yao gritted his teeth, forcing himself to hold on, and pressed two fingers together against his chest, spitting out a mouthful of blood. At the same time, Su Yao broke free from that force.

Although he broke free, Su Yao dared not show the slightest joy on his face, and his body still headed outwards as before.

He was furious, but the only thing he was certain of was that the person outside was not an enemy. The person outside was probably Purple Mansion True Person, and if he were hostile, he would have appeared in the cave abode long ago instead of calling out from outside.

Upon reaching the cave entrance, he took a deep breath.

Using the Prism- shaped grid, looking out through the cave entrance and the restrictions:

A tall figure appeared, dressed in a long white linen robe, his white hair swaying in the night breeze.

Although he looks middle-aged, his features are extremely handsome, and anyone would call him a good-looking man.

But that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that, as Su Yao used the Prism to investigate, he found that his body was protected by the Jade Pure One Purity Immortal Light.

It goes without saying who the newcomer is. At any time, there are only two people in the world who are protected by the Jade Pure One Purity Immortal Light.

One of them is the Second Master of Mysterious Gate, the leader of the Jade Pure One Dao Chan Sect, and now the Heavenly Venerable Jade Pure One Yuanshi Jiansu.

The other one is Mianning, a disciple of Heavenly Venerable Jade Pure One Yuanshi Jiansu, who is also destined to become Heavenly Venerable Jade Pure One Yuanshi Mianning in the future.

Heavenly Venerable Jade Pure One Yuanshi Jiansu Jade Void Palace on Kunlun Mountain unless there was a major event. Therefore, the person in front of us must be Mianning True Person.

No wonder that wooden box suddenly emitted a white light.

Outside the cave, he seemed to have spotted Su Yao breaking free of his restraints behind the door.

A hint of appreciation appeared on his previously indifferent face.

Seeing this, Su Yao did not rush to leave the cave. Instead, he took out the Daoist robe of Qixia Daozi from his Storage Bag, changed into it, and tidied his appearance.

Only then did they open the cave door, close the restrictions, and leave the cave abode.

Upon arriving outside the cave, although I had previously used the Prism to explore and see it, I was still taken aback when I actually saw it.

Only after the person in front of him chuckled did Su Yao cup his hands in greeting and say:

"The Mysterious Gate Jade Pure One Great Dao, the Chan Sect, the Zhongnan Dao Lineage, the Qixia Temple lineage, and Daoist disciple Su Yao greet the young master of the Jade Void Palace."

He waved his hand:

"Walk with me for a while."

Su Yao accepted the order.

He then headed down the mountain, with Su Yao following closely behind.

Su Yao thought to himself:

Fortunately, he had a feeling something was wrong when he consulted the oracle earlier, and since Gui Hong was also a lively person, he decided to keep it for Gui Hong.

Therefore, Li Siyi was asked to leave blank spaces in various places. The original plan was that if Gui Hong did not return the night before the mountain gate was opened, he would find one of his ancestors with beautiful handwriting and imitate his handwriting before he became an immortal.

Now it is just in time. Although I have never met him before, I have heard Daozheng say that this young master likes to inscribe names for Louguan. I heard that when he went to Laoshan Dao Lineage, the mountain gate of Mount Lao was newly built. He was so pleased with the inscription that he was rewarded with a Law Treasure on the spot.

The Laoshan Dao Lineage, who was only at the Divine Core Perfected One of False Core cultivator, almost had to kowtow to the young master.

If the sect leader hadn't sent a pageboy to stop him, he probably would have really kowtowed.

At that time, Daozheng was joking with him and said:

"Let alone Danqiuzi, Supreme True Person of the Divine Core, even someone who has attained the Heavenly Immortal couldn't resist."

Su Yao secretly prayed that the young master would be in a better mood. After all, the Jade Pure One sect had many patriarchs, but its true foundation and trump card were the treasures of Jade Void bestowed by the Dao Ancestor Yuqing in the past.

More importantly, with the young master's inscription here, the arrival of many fellow practitioners of the Jade Pure One Sect in the future will be well-managed, since those who come will undoubtedly be the most outstanding successors of their respective lineages.

Nobody will submit to anyone else!

Su Yao followed True Person Mianning down the mountain to the octagonal pavilion halfway down.

At this moment, the True Person of Mianning, looking towards the Cibi Lake ahead, finally spoke:

"This lake has a wilder, more untamed feel compared to the Jade Lake."

Su Yao was about to explain when he saw him looking over and said:

"I just wonder how it compares to Lake Encompassing Emptiness on Purple Canopy Peak?"

Su Yao's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this, realizing that this young master was indeed not just talking casually.

He pondered for a moment, then calmly replied:

"This lake is more famous in the mortal world than Hanxu. After all, Hanxu is hidden deep within Qixia Courtyard, atop Purple Canopy Peak, undisturbed by outsiders. Only the Rainbow Bridge lies across the water, and the mountain shadows reflect in the water, a scene of serene tranquility. Purple and Green is different. The Bai People and Han people live by the lake, boats come and go, and wherever there is smoke from cooking fires, there is the warmth of human life."

He paused, then added:

"As for Jade Lake, it is the abode of the Holy Mother and the Golden Mother of the West, and its Peach Banquet is famous throughout the world. It is naturally a celestial realm, incomparable to the mortal world. This lake, however, is only somewhat tainted by the mundane world."

After speaking, he lowered his head slightly, awaiting True Person Mianning's response.

Upon hearing this, Mianning did not say anything more, but took a few steps back, looked around, and then said:

"Has Gui Hong not yet established a formation?"

Su Yao was shocked upon hearing this. Two hundred years ago, Gui Hong went to Jade Lake for a banquet and caused trouble. He was caught by the young master who had just achieved the Purple Mansion and was given a good scolding.

He quickly replied:

"According to my future divine general: When Gui Hong was dismantling the formation on Shika Mountain, he was stopped by Monk Mao, which delayed him for a long time. He had just returned here when he hurriedly went elsewhere and hadn't even had time to set up the formation, but the earth's veins had already been cleared."

He nodded then, and glanced at Su Yao again, saying:

"I came here for no other reason than to be curious about what the person favored by the Rainbow Cloud Fruition looks like."

As soon as he finished speaking, seeing Su Yao's innocent expression, he chuckled softly:

"Your cultivation progress is genius-level, but not quite at the Fruition Position of a favored cultivator. However... I see that your Immortal Foundation, ' Draped in Rosy Radiance,' is even more outstanding than described in the classic texts. Its radiant glow is like a blazing sun. It surpasses even the one in the Yuanfu who cultivated this path. I initially thought it was due to differences in Cultivation Method and the Spiritual Qi consumed during Qi Refinement, but upon closer inspection, it turns out to be caused by the extensive cultivation of high-grade Law Technique."

He paused:

"Among the disciples of the Three Pure Ones of the Xuanmen Mysterious Gate, there are only three whose Law Technique talent surpasses yours."

Su Yao, curious upon hearing this, asked:

"I don't know..."

He waved his hand, interrupting Su Yao, and laughed loudly:

"Naturally, it's me, Brother Eight Sceneries Palace, and Brother Biyou Palace."

Su Yao then realized what was happening and cupped his hands in greeting:

"Thank you for your kind words, young master."

Mianning waved his hand, his tone becoming more casual:

"It's just the two of us here, no need for formalities."

Upon hearing this, Su Yao felt slightly relieved, but still dared not be too presumptuous, and only smiled and said:

"I have been cultivating Daoism in the mountains since I was a child. Apart from two young disciples, only Gui Hong has been by my side. Gui Hong always said that the young master is dignified, and even he is afraid of him. I can't help but feel nervous as well."

Upon hearing this, Mianning clapped his hands and laughed heartily; his clear laughter echoed in the night breeze.

"It was just a hundred years ago at the Jade Lake Immortal Banquet. Seeing his arrogance and haughtiness, I casually plucked a piece of his black feathers. But afterwards, I gave him two Spirit Treasure as compensation, thinking that the matter was over. I never expected that he would hold a grudge to this day."

His smile hadn't faded as he shook his head and said:

"If I happen to see this again, I'll definitely teach you a lesson."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the pavilion relaxed.
