Observing the Cloud Heaven Holy Land's Fortune
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Xuan's expression shifted, and a solemn look appeared on his face.
He couldn't even sense where the other party was.
Even when the other person transmits their voice to you, you still can't find their location.
At that moment, he took a deep breath and said:
"Please forgive me, sir, but would it be possible to have an audience with you?"
After a long pause, the other person finally spoke:
"People from the Cloud Heaven Holy Land have arrived?"
"Exactly."
After a moment of silence, below, on a hillside, the mountain scenery rippled, revealing the open space behind.
Elder Xuan stood up and strode inside.
This place looks quite leisurely, with simple thatched cottages and vegetable gardens, resembling a secluded retreat.
As Elder Xuan landed, a figure emerged from the house.
The figure was quite old, with white hair and beard, yet he appeared remarkably energetic, exuding a mysterious aura.
After he came out, he looked at Elder Xuan and said:
"Judging from your appearance, if I'm not mistaken, you should be that Mystic Star Master from the Cloud Heaven Holy Land."
Elder Xuan nodded and smiled:
"I didn't expect you to have heard of me."
"Of course," the other person sighed.
"The Mystic Star Master of the Cloud Heaven Holy Land is only one in each generation. He has played a significant role in the development and growth of the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, and has a long and illustrious history. How could we not have heard of him?"
"That's all in the past, it's nothing," Elder Xuan shook his head gently.
At this point, the other party got straight to the point:
"If I'm not mistaken, you've come all this way specifically to have me assess the fortunes of your Cloud Heaven Holy Land, right?"
Elder Xuan nodded and smiled:
"Your Excellency is truly a master strategist."
"Not really." The other person waved their hand.
"That's all I'm capable of. I came all this way specifically for this purpose, not just for idle chatter."
Elder Xuan nodded and tentatively asked:
"So, what you mean is...?"
The other party did not answer directly, but said:
"In my youth, I was indifferent to predicting fortunes and acquiring resources for various parties; it was during that time that my reputation was built."
"However, until one day, this old man took a look at his own fate."
Elder Xuan's expression shifted:
"But did you see anything?"
The other party shook their head:
"I am older and should not act rashly, otherwise it may bring me unnecessary trouble."
As he spoke, he looked over at Elder Xuan:
"If you hadn't spoken ill of me behind my back, you might not have discovered my secluded place."
After listening, Elder Xuan understood.
This statement sounds somewhat mysterious.
But who knows if it's true or false?
The only thing that can be confirmed is:
The other party wants a high price!
It's just a common business tactic.
At that moment, Elder Xuan spoke:
"In that case, what would it take for you to agree to take action?"
The other party looked at Elder Xuan and said:
"Would you be willing to pass on your star-gazing skills?"
Elder Xuan's gaze sharpened slightly.
It must be said that this opening is quite large.
"Since you already possess the ability to predict fortune, why would you bother practicing such Xiao Dao as astrology?"
The other party chuckled and shook their head, saying:
"I've always been very interested in these things, and besides, you've probably heard the saying 'it's always good to have many skills.'"
"I am here to observe the fortunes of the Cloud Heaven Holy Land, and you have instructed me in the art of stargazing."
"Whether I can learn it or not depends on my abilities, Cai Kun, how about it?"
Elder Xuan did not rush to answer.
But I had some ideas in my mind.
After all, stargazing is an art that not just anyone can learn.
His skill level wasn't particularly high, yet he possessed the ability to observe stars and was highly regarded. Why?
That's because, among those who studied the art of stargazing, he was the only one who mastered it.
After a moment's thought, Elder Xuan:
"This matter is of great importance Non-Self alone. Why don't you come back to the Holy Land with me and then make a decision?"
Mr. Cai thought for a moment and nodded slightly:
"Can."
Afterwards, the two boarded a flying boat and returned to the Cloud Heaven Holy Land.
"To practice the art of stargazing?"
When Elder Xuan returned and relayed the request to Huang Yunya, Huang Yunya immediately frowned.
"How can the Cloud Heaven Holy Land be so easily taught to outsiders?"
As he finished speaking, a glint of light flashed in Huang Yunya's eyes:
"Now that he has come to my holy land, then..."
Before he could finish speaking, Elder Xuan understood Huang Yunya's meaning and immediately shook his head:
"For others, this would be perfectly acceptable, but this matter depends on fate. If he intends to conceal the truth and paint a rosy picture, the harm to our holy land may be even greater."
Huang Yunya remained silent.
What Elder Xuan said is indeed not to be ignored.
In such cases, keeping things to oneself is indeed more dangerous than speaking out about the problem directly.
"Why don't we let him give it a try?" Elder Xuan said.
"Practicing the art of stargazing is by no means an easy task; it requires many years of effort. Judging from the other person's age, if they were capable of mastering it, they would surely be old and gray-haired by then. Moreover, the other person might not even be able to learn it."
After some discussion, the matter was settled.
The Struggle of the Heaven's Chosen is imminent.
By observing one's fortune and supplementing it with astrological signs, one can gain a clearer understanding of the future.
Soon, many core disciples were summoned and gathered in the square at the core of the Cloud Heaven Holy Land.
Cai Kun sat cross-legged in front of the crowd, wearing a long robe, with his eyes slightly closed.
"I've heard that this senior can help us foresee potential future calamities and help us avoid misfortune and attract good fortune."
"In the future, it will probably be Struggle of the Heaven's Chosen in the near future. If there is any misfortune, we should be more careful."
"There's no need to be careful. Of course, we should consider avoiding it altogether. Anything that can be called an calamity is definitely not a trivial matter."
"That would be far too cautious. How could we cultivators possibly..."
During the discussion, Elder Xuan said to Cai Kun:
"These four at the head are the quasi-holy sons of my Cloud Heaven Holy Land."
He then introduced them to Cai Kun one by one, but the time between his introductions of Luo Zhen and Qin Jiuxiao was slightly longer.
After all, there's more to it than just observing the fortunes of the sacred site; there's something even more important.
According to the Holy Lord's will, let's see who is absorbing or altering the fortune of his holy land!
However, this scene, as seen by everyone else, revealed a different message.
"Could it be that predicting calamities is a pretense, and the real purpose is to determine the future Holy Son?"
Otherwise, why single out these four potential holy sons for introduction?
Although most people now know that the Holy Land has also nurtured a peerless genius, the other party seems to have no interest in the position of Holy Son. In the end, the competition for the Holy Son will still fall on the four of them.
This move is truly intriguing.
The four of them clearly thought the same thing. For a moment, they straightened their posture and subtly released their aura, trying to show off their superior abilities in front of Cai Kun.
Qin Jiuxiao narrowed his eyes slightly.
A few days ago, I was fortunate enough to enter a state of Sudden Enlightenment and benefited immensely; I felt as if I had been reborn.
Now is the perfect time to prepare for the future Holy Son!
The only drawback is that Luo Zhen is still alive.
In any case, I must outdo Luo Zhen!
But I have a special physique, which Luo Zhen doesn't.
With this thought in mind, Qin Jiuxiao activated his Hard and Unyielding Physique.
Not far away, Cai Kun, who had already looked away, seemed to notice something and looked back at Qin Jiuxiao.
Her eyes glanced down a little below Qin Jiuxiao's waist, and her brows furrowed.
This junior is truly rude, shamelessly pointing at me!
