Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 262: Chapter 185: Daying Immortal Mansion (Part 3)

...

In the mountains several hundred miles south of the Black Water Pool.

Four figures clad in the cloaks of the Suihuo Sect stood silently on a cliff of a mountain peak. The surrounding night sky and everything else appeared in a bizarre state of overlapping and distortion, as if separated by layers of hazy water curtains from the distant mountains.

Wei Chengyu’s gaze was deep as he leisurely spoke:

”The sect has sent news that after arriving in the Central Province, he has been secretly investigating the matters of those years.”

”Though the two remaining Yangnao Seven Sons are imprisoned, the Mansion Master of the Daying Immortal Mansion has been missing ever since.”

”Zhenyi, Dragon Taming, Gu Yuan, and the Sword Holder — of these four, the only confirmed case is that the Sword Holder has completely perished, his Golden Nature vanished without a trace.”

”The situation of the remaining three has become a mystery.”

”Should the Golden Nature not perish, entering reincarnation, there is a certain possibility of rebirth and awakening from the mystery of the womb, returning once more.”

”With a Nascent Soul Realm Demon Dragon watching, the adults in the sect are quite troubled indeed...”

The three behind him exchanged glances, and the youth who had been watching the direction of Black Water Pavilion outside the Shen Family Manor spoke: ”Senior brother, the Shen Family has set up several layers of arrays at the Black Water Pool; it’s still uncertain whether Master Dragon Taming’s Golden Core is there.”

”Should we have those guys take action, wipe out the Shen Family, and then investigate thoroughly?”

Wei Chengyu slightly shook his head.

”They have their tasks, and we have ours.”

”Unless absolutely necessary, it’s best not to expose ourselves.”

”Last time, the Lingshan Sword Immortal boldly erased the Hundred Beasts Mountain, and it remains unclear whether it was by her own will or with the Cyan Ruo Sword House’s consent.”

”Heh...”

Wei Chengyu suddenly chuckled and said: ”That Shen Wenxing is cautious enough...”

”Maybe I appeared too impatient, which raised his suspicions.”

After these words, the four fell silent.

For a long while—

”What’s the situation at Seven Sages Mountain?”

Wei Chengyu suddenly asked, and another person behind him cupped his fists and replied: ”It has already been clarified.”

”The Seven Sages Mountain Secret Realm is indeed the inheritance site left by the Yangnao Seven Sons back then.”

”The legacy left by Ascendant Zhenyi at Yi Xianting has already been tampered with by our people in secret.”

”Any inheritor shall surely die upon contact!”

”It’s not easy to deal with the rest.”

”However, we have tampered with some arrays in that Secret Realm; once someone obtains the Yangnao Seven Sons’ inheritance, their identity will be immediately known.”

”By then, it will only require some methods to eliminate them.”

Wei Chengyu heard this, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face as he nodded and turned, gazing at the vast undulating mountains in the distance, whispering:

”Back then, Great Prosperity True Monarch sealed the entire Southern Border Land with this Void Combination Corridor Array; the people in the sect couldn’t see through his plans, only assuming he was kind-hearted, unwilling to commit mass slaughter.”

”I don’t see it that way.”

The people behind him all showed signs of bafflement upon hearing this.

Wei Chengyu flashed a beam of light from his hand and took out a sinister crimson jade plate, saying: ”Whether or not that’s true, this Void Combination Corridor Array needs to be broken.”

”After all, that Demon Dragon is from here; if those things in the Southern Border were to emerge.”

”So long as that Demon Dragon holds any nostalgia in its heart, it will surely be distracted and come to handle it...”

Holding the jade plate, Wei Chengyu slightly squinted his eyes and flew towards the vast expanse of mountains.

The few people behind him also waved their cloaks, disappearing into the night sky.

...

As autumn set in, the weather gradually cooled.

In the Black Water Pavilion, Shen Yuan sat cross-legged, a slight yet substantial wave of spiritual power suddenly bursting forth from him.

As this wave of spiritual power gradually dissipated, his realm reached the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.

”After thirty-one years of cultivation, my cultivation has finally reached the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer...”

Shen Yuan smiled wryly, about to stand, when a feeling arose in his heart, prompting him to curiously immerse his divine sense into his Sea of Consciousness.

He saw that the normally silent White Jade Turtle Shell suddenly emitted a faint glow, as if trying to reveal something.

疑 Shen Yuan’s heart was filled with doubt.

Ever since he began refining this White Jade Turtle Shell, he had been able to control it to not display hexagrams autonomously anymore.

Why is this happening today?

On the White Jade Turtle Shell, red and white whirlpools spun unceasingly, with strands of spiritual charm emerging from the whirlpools, gradually forming the character ”Wen” above the shell.

Subsequently, under Shen Yuan’s divine sense observation, the spiritual charm formed the character ”Chong.”

”Is this my Shen Family’s generation name?”

Seeing the characters ”Wen Chong,” Shen Yuan felt even more puzzled.

Yet immediately, the third character changed.

It was the character ”Xiu”!

Then came the appearance of the fourth character.

”Wen Chong Xiu Yuan...”

Shen Yuan muttered, and found that the subsequent generation name was the same as what he had set before.

What does this mean?

With a slight thought, he immediately began trying some deductions.

However, after consuming a significant amount of spiritual charm, all he obtained was a vague answer.

The hexagram seemed to imply a calamity befalling two generations of the Shen Family following the ”Chong” generation, and the White Jade Turtle Shell’s changing ”De Hou” to ”Xiu Yuan” was likely a warning to him, suggesting the next two generations cultivate their affinities well.

Withdrawing his divine sense from the Sea of Consciousness, Shen Yuan suddenly chuckled.

The Shen Family had long been cultivating ”affinities,” and indeed, the many events they encountered were resolved through the affinities they cultivated.

”Xiu Yuan, so be it.”

As Shen Yuan left the Black Water Pavilion with his hands behind his back, he saw Shen Wenxing rushing over excitedly.

”Dad, it’s born!”

Shen Yuan glared at him, saying: ”At your age, why are you still so reckless?”

Shen Wenxing chuckled, cupping his hands: ”Dad, Youran gave birth to a big fat boy!”
