Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 323: Chapter 195: Unexpected Gains (Part 3)

”Refrain from making any moves, minimize the use of your realm.”

”Focus on one thing, keep a single thought in mind, and stay true to yourself; all these will help you.”

The Lingshan Sword Immortal gave some advice, though it wasn’t necessarily the best solution.

But upon seeing Shen Wen’an furrow his brows slightly, the Lingshan Sword Immortal pondered momentarily before speaking again, ”Actually, I too comprehended the initial form of a realm when I was in the Fetal Breathing Realm, and later spent decades in meditation in front of the Heaven-Reaching Sword Bamboo on the mountaintop.”

”Eventually, I comprehended this Cyan Bamboo Sword Intent.”

”According to ancient texts, there are extraordinary geniuses who can, without relying on that Immortal Golden Nature ’Void Condensation’ realm, still comprehend another realm when they achieve the Golden Core in the future and possess that trace of Immortal Golden Nature.”

”If you have confidence in yourself, you can give it a careful try.”

Shen Wen’an nodded, bearing these words in mind.

”Thank you, Senior Sister, for resolving my doubts.”

”I have two more matters that require your assistance, Senior Sister.”

Having cleared his doubts regarding the Sword Intent, he began to inquire about the remaining two matters.

The Lingshan Sword Immortal looked at him.

Shen Wen’an bowed and said, ”A few days ago, for some unknown reason, the Suihuo Sect from Qishan suddenly dispatched three cultivators at the Late Stage of Fetal Breathing to assassinate my elder brother’s eldest son, Chongming.”

”Fortunately, my father foresaw the danger with the Path of Great Derivation and was thus able to avert it.”

”Our Shen Family has enlisted the help of various forces to investigate the Suihuo Sect, but we always come up with nothing...”

Upon hearing this, the Lingshan Sword Immortal’s calm expression briefly showed a flicker of killing intent.

”You mean the people from the Suihuo Sect wanted to kill Chongming?”

Shen Wen’an nodded and said, ”Years ago, our Shen Family and Luoxia Mountain had some conflicts with the Suihuo Sect. Chongming has good talent and is about to reach the Qi Cultivation Perfection now, so the Suihuo Sect might have acted because of that.”

”However, their actions are strange and deeply hidden, so our Shen Family dare not act recklessly.”

”Does Senior Sister know the background of the Suihuo Sect?”

The Lingshan Sword Immortal suppressed her killing intent and, after a moment of thought, said, ”The Suihuo Sect and the Yinhe Sect of the Upper Three Sects share the same origin, and there has always been a secret connection between the two.”

”Moreover, the Yinhe Sect seems to have intricate connections with a major sect in the Central Province, making this matter indeed quite tricky.”

Upon hearing the Lingshan Sword Immortal’s words, Shen Wen’an’s expression became somewhat solemn.

Previously, Luoxia Mountain had spent great effort to find some clues, speculating that the Suihuo Sect and the Yinhe Sect of the Upper Three Sects were connected.

Now this speculation is confirmed, and since the Lingshan Sword Immortal says handling the Suihuo Sect is tricky, it shows that those guys are indeed hard to deal with.

”To my knowledge, both the Suihuo Sect and the Yinhe Sect have strong objectives in Danzhou and won’t easily make a move.”

”If it’s merely because of Chongming’s good talent, it wouldn’t be enough to provoke them into action.”

”I’m afraid Chongming might already be entangled in the schemes of the Yinhe Sect and the Suihuo Sect, or perhaps he knows or obtained something, making them want to eliminate him.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Wen’an clenched his fist slightly.

He was aware of the madness of the Suihuo Sect, and if it was truly as the Lingshan Sword Immortal said, then the Shen Family could expect no peace in the future.

”Junior Brother, when you return this time, you must warn Chongming to try not to go out before he reaches the Fetal Breathing Realm.”

”Moreover...”

The Lingshan Sword Immortal hesitated for a moment before saying, ”Later, Junior Brother, come with me to meet someone.”

Shen Wen’an nodded, then said somewhat awkwardly, ”There’s one more thing... Does Senior Sister know any great experts in Array Dao...”

Coming to the Cyan Ruo Sword House, he came empty-handed, bringing nothing, and already had so many trivial matters for the Lingshan Sword Immortal to help handle. Even with his tenacious nature, he felt a bit embarrassed.

The Lingshan Sword Immortal looked at him doubtfully and suddenly laughed.

”I initially thought it might be a waste of a favor, but hearing you now, it seems there might be a use for that old man’s skills.”

”Let’s just go. Follow me, and we’ll discuss it when we get there.”

The Lingshan Sword Immortal said this and casually plucked a bamboo leaf, throwing it into the air, forming a long green bamboo leaf sword.

With a flash of her figure, she landed directly on the green sword and flew towards the distance.

Seeing this, Shen Wen’an quickly pointed at his sword scabbard. The Dragon-Slaying Sword in his hand emitted a crisp sword cry and flew out, carrying him as he pursued the Lingshan Sword Immortal.

Watching the mountains and rivers swiftly receding below his feet, Shen Wen’an curiously asked, ”Senior Sister, who are we going to meet?”

The Lingshan Sword Immortal’s simple garb fluttered, her hair lifted by the gentle breeze, and her beautiful eyes looked into the distance as she spoke lightly:

”In Danzhou, there is an extraordinary place called Fallen Immortal Lake.”

”Around a thousand miles of Fallen Immortal Lake are covered by a powerful restriction. Even for us Golden Core Realm cultivators, if we recklessly fly into it, we’ll be immediately immobilized by the spiritual sword essence and fall into the lake.”

”That’s why it’s named Fallen Immortal Lake.”

”I’m taking you to meet a master of Array Dao, a loose cultivator, who is reclusive within Fallen Immortal Lake.”

”That old man has been secluded there for over a hundred years, delving into the lake’s restriction.”

”Recently, the Female Essence Wisdom Pearl left behind by Bai Ze’s passing attracted him, but he almost perished at the hands of a Great Demon of the Golden Core Realm, whom I rescued.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Wen’an’s expression turned odd.

”What was Senior Sister planning to do with that elder before?”

The Lingshan Sword Immortal laughed and said, ”Of course, I was hoping he would help your Shen Family set up a grand array to guard the estate, to prevent rogue raids by the Suihuo Sect.”

As they spoke, they had already approached the vicinity of Fallen Immortal Lake.

”Let’s descend. Going any further will enter the restriction, and losing your sword essence and falling from the sky won’t be pleasant.”

The Lingshan Sword Immortal spoke, and the two of them rushed toward the forest below.

Once they landed, the Lingshan Sword Immortal said, ”This restriction is quite peculiar. If walking on the ground, your cultivation won’t be affected at all.”
