Big Bodhi

Chapter 84: Xuanqing

After his words fell, the jade talisman gradually disintegrated into pitch-black yin energy, pouring in from Zhao Xiaoyuns seven orifices, making his expression completely dull.

Ji Yuenian stood up from Qingluans blue feathered back, and when his sleeves flipped, a green wooden membrane formed around Zhao Xiaoyuns body, blocking out all the remaining wind.

After a long while, Zhao Xiaoyun seemed to be able to recover. A strange black light appeared in his eyes. He remained a little unstable for a while, and fell on Qingluans back.

After adjusting his breath again for an incense sticks worth of time, Zhao Xiaoyun opened his eyes, exhaled a wisp of black air, and sighed with a complex look. "This true mantra is really mysterious and extraordinary. It can transform Xuan Qi and Ghost Qi interchangeably. Such a miraculous mantra can only be witnessed in a lifetime."

Ji Yuenian shook his head and said, "We havve arrived at the ancient city of Taichu."

The majestic giant city was getting closer and closer, and Qingluan directly flew in at a height of hundreds of feet, casting a large shadow on the city wall. Its presence caused disturbances in the big city gate on the west side of the outer city.

Zhao Xiaoyun got up and walked to the edge of the spiritual light shield around Qingluans body, looked down at the ancient city of Taichu, and said, "Cousin, shall we directly head to the Ji family residence?"

"Swallowing Cloud City, Crane Cloud Temple."

While the two were talking, Qingluan was already approaching Tunyun City rapidly.

Looking down, he could vaguely see many Daoist pagodas and Daoist temples lined up in the Crane Cloud Temple.

"Whats that in the sky?!" Countless people in Tunyun City looked up at the huge Qingluan, their faces full of shock.

"This kind of subdued violent aura could it be someone in the True Dao Realm?" A member of the Heyun Guan lineage who was at the Initial stage of the Xuan Realm looked up with horrified eyes, and made his own judgment in an instant!

"Looking at its direction, its heading straight for Heyun Temple, it should be an old acquaintance of Hexuan."

Qingluan gradually lowered, and slowly landed outside the Xuanqing Hall, the main hall of Heyun Temple. It stopped on the stone platform with a radius of several tens of feet beside the Xuanqing Hall.

Daoist Hexuan had already noticed this and stood under the gate of the Xuanqing Palace. There were several people following behind him, one of them was the indifferent woman in Tsing Yi who was the mirror ghost.

"Thats Jis familys Ji Yuenian?"

"This spirit bird is majestic and powerful, and its aura is far beyond the Xuan Realm. Ji Yuenian can possess such a miraculous spirit bird, then does it not mean that his own cultivation is even more terrifying!"

"I heard that Ji Yuenian rose up though the ranks of the Taiyu Holy Sect, and his position has skyrocketed. Now, he has already reached an unimaginable height."

"Even Patriarch Hexuan deigned to come out of the hall to greet him, tsk tsk."

Outside he Heyun Temple, many disciples of Daoist Hexuans direct bloodlines and subordinates all paid their attention to Ji Yuenian and Zhao Xiaoyun, their faces full of admiration and amazement.

Although they didnt know the specific regulations of the entrance examination in the Luoxia Mountains, they had heard about Ji Yuenians entrance examination which had hundreds of thousands of creatures participating. Though they werent aware of the details.

"I greet you, fellow Daoist."

Ji Yuenian and Zhao Xiaoyun got off Qingluan, and bowed towards Daoist Hexuan.

Now both of them were disciples of the Outer Sect of the Luoxia Mountain Range, and one of them was Ji Yuenian who was about to be enshrined as the Holy Son.

They generally regard themselves as Elders.

Daoist Hexuan showed a polite smile, took a step from the gate of the palace, and said to Ji Yuenian, "There was a saying that after three days of separation, you should look at each other with admiration. Although Junior Brother Ji left the ancient city of Taichu not more than three days ago, you really surprised me."

The peak of True Dao Realm was only one step away from the Divine Sea Realm, but this step had become a massive hurdle for countless creatures, which could be called a natural barrier.

Daoist Hexuan was sent out to the ancient city of Taichu, where he guarded one territory. On weekdays, he educated the blood descendants and taught his disciples himself.

Although this time was spent leisurely and peacefully, the hope of breaking through the barrier remained slim. At that time, the news of someone with the blood of the Tongxuan Heart Ghost and a Grade 4 Heart Fire Sequence being born had renewed someone of Hexuans earlier spirit.

If Ji Yuenian broke through the True Dao Realm, after entering the Six Mountains and Three Realms, he would be directly promoted to the status of the potential Holy Son. Under the sects emphasis, he would receive almost all kinds of spiritual resources.

Among them, there were very few things that helped to break through the True Dao Realm. It was just that for Daoist Hexuan, he had neither the wealth nor the qualifications to purchase such extremely precious spiritual sources.

At that time, if his relationship was good with Ji Yuenian, after he was ranked as the potential Holy Son, there would be a faint hope for him to breakthrough.

Ji Yuenian clasped his hands and said, "Senior brother, you are too humble."

"Two juniors, please come into the hall." Daoist Hexuan stepped into the Xuanqing Hall first, and the Qingyi mirror ghost behind him gave Ji Yuenian a faint look, stepped aside, and led the two into the hall.

The Xuanqing Hall was as quiet as before.

In the main hall, there were still three statues of righteous gods and spirits enshrined. A group of people walked through the main hall and went straight into the side hall.

Daoist Hexuan did not take a seat on the Daoist platform this time, but ordered Qingyi to fetch several futons, and sat down one after another with Ji Yuenian and Zhao Xiaoyun.

"About the matter of Jis family, I have sent numerous jade slips to the Luoxia Mountains in the past few days, and my junior should have understood something by now," Daoist Hexuan looked a little more solemn, and took out a jade slip between his palms. "However, I only discovered last night that the Ji Quexe is not that simple. After slaughtering thousands of souls of the Ji family in Anyang, she did not actually leave the ancient city of Taichu."n"
