"I've read your mission report. You did a great job using your wisdom to eliminate a Painted Skin Demon."
Lu Yang was delighted. It was not easy to get praise from the senior sister. The trip to Taiping Township was worth it.
After Yunzhi made a faint comment, she thought about the meaning behind the Painted Skin Demon and her brows became a little gloomy.
"Over the past hundred years, with the arrival of the great era, various forces hidden in the dark have been ready to move, and ghosts are rampant. The Great Xia Dynasty seems peaceful, but who knows how many disasters are hidden in it. The Great Xia Dynasty is too concerned about its reputation and refuses to seek help from the five major immortal sects." Yun Zhi sighed lightly. Of course, these words were not said to Lu Yang.
Lu Yang noticed a word in the words of the senior sister: "The great age is coming?"
He had never heard of this word, nor had he seen it in any book.
Yunzhi's voice was vague, as if it was not in this world: "A hundred years ago, the Grand Elder of Tiance Sect walked out of the Death Gate, spilled his blood in the Qinghe River, and asked the heavens for his life. What he calculated is unknown."
The Tiance Sect claims that everything can be predicted and understood, and they believe in the law of nature and cause and effect. It was they who questioned the insurance of the Ludi Jinqian Chamber of Commerce.
"The Grand Elder then announced to the world that the great age had arrived and the glorious scene of ancient immortal cultivation would reappear."
"According to past practice, if one person with a single spiritual root appeared in each class of the five major immortal sects, it would be considered a good harvest. In your class, there appeared the ancient barbarian tribe, three people with single spiritual roots, and an immortal body that is even rarer than a single spiritual root. I heard that other immortal sects have also recruited many geniuses who are no less talented than single spiritual roots in the past hundred years. From these, we can get a glimpse of the ancient world."
Yunzhi rarely raised the corner of her mouth to a faint smile, as if mocking: "The ancient times were said to be grand, but in fact they were extremely chaotic. The ancient times were also chaotic, with various forces and interests intertwined, demons and ghosts scheming against each other, people's hearts were unpredictable, and life and death were determined by heaven. Countless innocent people died before a great immortal cultivator appeared. In terms of peace and stability, it is far less than the present."
Lu Yang felt that the senior sister’s smile was very cold.
Lu Yang had seen the description of the ancient times in the book. In the ancient times, strength was respected and the winner was the king, without distinction between good and evil. The human race was just one of the strong ones at that time, far from the status of the overlord of the continent today.
Demons are born, dragons and tigers fight each other, geniuses roam the world, forge their reputations with blood and bones, kill decisively, and countless powerful people become legends admired by millions of people in the process. The unattainable goals that monks strive for their entire lives are really exciting to watch. You can't wait to travel back to that era and show your talents.
It is in such troubled times that all kinds of heroes have the opportunity to shine.
But when he saw the expression on the senior sister's face, Lu Yang realized that the ancient times were a good thing for the geniuses, but a hellish nightmare for ordinary people.
They were born and died at the same time, and their lives were in danger. In an ordinary clash between the upper classes, their own people would be reduced to slaves and prisoners, at the mercy of others, and there would be no peace at all.
The ancient world described in the book is magnificent and turbulent. That's because the author himself is a high-level monk and yearns for the scenes of that time.
If we change to the perspective of ordinary people, the picture will be completely different.
Lu Yang realized that after he became a cultivator, he seemed to have forgotten the fact that he was once a mortal.
This shouldn't be.
Yunzhi didn't talk much about this topic. It was too early for Lu Yang. "What else do you want to ask?"
"Well, Senior Sister, do you have any spells that can help me travel faster?"
"Of course there is, but what do you want this spell for?"
The Wenda Sect and the Landed Money Chamber of Commerce have an agreement. When the Wenda Sect disciples go out, all the expenses for accommodation and transportation at the Landed Money Chamber of Commerce are recorded in the Wenda Sect's account. Lu Yang doesn't even have to spend spirit stones to ride on the flying boat, so what's the point of learning the magic of traveling
Lu Yang scratched his head, showing a rare embarrassed look: "Nothing, I just want to learn and save money for our Dao Sect."
Yun Zhi had no doubts: "You have this intention, and I, as your senior sister, cannot refuse your wishes. You have just established your foundation, and you don't have many spells to use."
Lu Yang laughed and rubbed his hands: "As long as it can be used."
"I have seen your training this year, and you are worthy of the name of Sword Spirit Root. I have a flying sword technique that will allow you to step on a flying sword and travel around the world."
"There is also a movement technique that can temper your consciousness and make it strong enough to move your body and fly at will. It's not as fast as the flying sword technique, but it saves energy. Tempering your consciousness will also be helpful in future battles."
"Transfiguration is also optional. After learning it, you can transform into a bird and fly freely in the sky."
"Junior brother, which one do you choose?" Yun Zhi casually mentioned a few spells for Lu Yang to choose from.
"… Um, is there any spell that doesn't require flying?"
Yunzhi looked at the blushing Lu Yang with interest: "Oh, why do you want to learn a spell that allows you to travel faster without flying?"
Lu Yang hesitated and couldn't speak for a long time.
Yunzhi did not ask any more questions: "There are also spells that do not require flying, but this spell requires a very high level of understanding of Taoism and also requires a certain amount of mana. It may be a little early for you to learn it now."
"It's okay, just try it first, and forget it if it doesn't work."
"This spell is called Shrinking the Earth into an Inch. It is extremely difficult to practice. Here is the formula for the spell. Once you have memorized it, I will teach you."
Yunzhi raised her jade hand, casually cut open a piece of space, and took out a page of golden paper, which was neatly filled with beautiful handwriting.
Lu Yang carefully took the golden paper. It looked like it was very valuable. It would be terrible if he tore it.
After Lu Yang left, Yun Zhi closed her eyes and continued to practice. As a gust of cold wind came, an old and resentful voice came to her ears, which made her shudder, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
"My good disciple, how long are you going to keep me as your master?"
The sound seemed to come from the Netherworld, making people's hair stand on end and their backs chilled!
"I have not taught you many times. It is not easy for you to cultivate to the level you are today. I am proud of you."
"As the saying goes, once a teacher, you are a father for life. You cannot ignore the kindness of the teacher's teachings and imprison him here."
"Wendao Sect has been without a leader for ten years. You are acting as the leader on behalf of your master. Aren't you afraid of gossip and rumors that will affect the glorious image of your senior sister?"
"You accepted a disciple on my behalf. It's fine for you to accept such a sword genius on my behalf. I won't pursue the matter any further."
"But you should at least let me out and let me see my disciple. If you let him worship my portrait instead of my real one, wouldn't that make people laugh at you?"
The sound contains a certain magic that stirs the heartstrings and makes people unconsciously want to believe, unlock the seal and release the owner of the sound.
Yunzhi devoted herself to cultivation and ignored it.
Seeing that Yunzhi was unmoved, the old voice turned all its words into a long sigh and disappeared completely, as if it had never appeared.
Yunzhi's five hearts are facing the sky, and everything remains the same.
