Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Under such circumstances, it might not be long before Luoxia Mountain’s mountain gate in Danzhou will be attacked.

By then, once Danzhou’s mountain gate is destroyed, Yangnao Land will become Luoxia Mountain’s only foothold.

They need to develop here and recruit disciples from the common people.

If the transaction concerning blood food were to be exposed, it would severely tarnish Luoxia Mountain’s image in the minds of the common people.

Old Man Jin also guessed Luo Yao’s request.

He immediately laughed and expressed that Celestial Sandalwood Mountain supports her decision.

With the bottom line settled, the three parties discussed the items sold by each faction and the planning issues within the market’s various regions.

It wasn’t until nightfall that everything was finally decided.

”In that case, I shall first return to make preparations,”

”Fellow Daoist Shen, Fellow Daoist Luo, I bid you farewell.”

Old Man Jin rose, clasped his hands toward the two, and then hurriedly left Yunzhong County City.

”Elder Luo, I shall also take my leave first.”

”The younger generation in the clan has been bothering Elder Jiang all day, I must go and check.”

After Luo Yao nodded, Shen Chongming hurriedly headed to the Seven Layer Tower where Jiang Xiuqi was located.

Before reaching the top floor, he heard an old and a young voice debating above.

”The way of Array Dao is not something that can be taken for granted!”

”What we call an array is that we array masters must utilize the forces of heaven and earth to set it up to maximize its effectiveness.”

After Jiang Xiuqi’s voice rang out, Shen Xiubai was briefly silent, then clasped his hands and said, ”What the elder said is indeed correct, but an array that only borrows force is ultimately somewhat inflexible.”

”I believe that only an array that is flexible and changeable can achieve unexpected results and catch the opponent off guard.”

”Like the sect’s Mountain Protection Array, it just sits there plainly, allowing enemies to see and attack freely, and one day it will be breached.”

”If it could be more flexible, mixing a Killing Array and a Trapping Array within the defensive array.”

”Luring the enemy deeper, then the passive can become active...”

”You...” Jiang Xiuqi was somewhat at a loss for words from what he said, ”You” for a long time but did not know how to refute.

Shen Chongming, listening intently from downstairs, quickly came before the two and sternly said, ”Xiubai!”

Seeing this, Shen Xiubai hurriedly rose and clasped his hands, ”Uncle.”

”Did Uncle not warn you before not to anger the elder? Why do you not listen!?”

Shen Xiubai lowered his head and remained silent.

Shen Chongming quickly clasped his hands toward Jiang Xiuqi, ”Elder Jiang, please forgive me, the younger generation in the clan is inexperienced, please do not take offense.”

”Xiubai, quickly apologize to the elder!”

Shen Xiubai turned around, just about to clasp his hands when Jiang Xiuqi laughed and waved his hand, ”No harm, no harm.”

”We cultivators discussing Dao, disputes are inevitable.”

”This child’s understanding of Array Dao can be said to have found a different path, this old man has benefited greatly from today’s discussion.”

”Chongming, does this child have a position in your Shen Family?”

Faced with Jiang Xiuqi’s gaze, Shen Chongming was slightly startled and then shook his head, ”Xiubai is still young, aside from cultivation, the clan has not assigned him any duties.”

Jiang Xiuqi pondered slightly and then nodded, ”In that case, let him stay at my Luoxia Mountain temporarily to cultivate.”

”It’s just right to discuss Array Dao cultivation matters more with this old man.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Chongming was somewhat surprised.

He noticed the wording used by Jiang Xiuqi.

”Cultivators discussing Dao,” ”discussing Array Dao cultivation,” all seemed to elevate Shen Xiubai’s position very highly.

”Does the elder mean... to accept Xiubai as a disciple?”

Shen Chongming said uncertainly.

Jiang Xiuqi slightly shook his head, ”Since this child has already received the inheritance from Fellow Daoist Fu Yang, this old man naturally won’t break the rules.”

”Moreover, although this child’s cultivation is only at the Qi Cultivation Second Layer, his understanding and realization of Array Dao is not much inferior to this old man.”

”If speaking of accepting him as a disciple in terms of cultivation, this old man deems himself qualified, but as a master in Array Dao... it’s best to forget it.”

Shen Chongming did not know that Shen Xiubai has already nearly fully absorbed the contents from the Inheritance Crystal Stone of Fu Yang.

If not for being limited by cultivation, some arrays he could not personally verify, he could already be considered to have achieved minor success in Array Dao.

”Xiubai, what do you think?”

Suppressing his astonishment, Shen Chongming turned to Shen Xiubai and spoke in a gentle tone.

This nephew of his is still under ten years old, with some flaws in his personality, staying by Jiang Xiuqi’s side, he was unsure if it was good or bad.

”Nephew follows uncle’s advice,”

Shen Xiubai slightly clasped hands, but the hope that flashed in his eyes was still captured by Shen Chongming.

After a brief contemplation, he turned to Jiang Xiuqi and clasped hands slightly, ”In that case, I entrust Xiubai to the elder’s care.”

”If this child does anything wrong, please do not hesitate to reprimand and punish him.”

Upon his agreement, Jiang Xiuqi immediately laughed heartily, ”The little fellow’s temper is indeed a bit odd, but not to the point of needing punishment.”

”Rest assured, this old man will teach him well.”

Shen Chongming nodded, then pulled Shen Xiubai aside and carefully instructed him before leaving Yunzhong County City with some unease.

...

Yunshui City.

After returning from Flame Lake City, Shen Wen’an directly went into seclusion, preparing to combine his Golden Nature.

The Inner Core was perfectly round, and his Lifebound Magical Sword was also fully repaired. Combining Golden Nature to achieve a true Immortal Golden Core was simply a matter of course.

Inside the secret chamber, Shen Wen’an’s divine sense sank into his Dantian.

The strand of Golden Nature material, exuding an elusive and immortal aura, quietly floated beside the Inner Core Sword Pill.

His divine sense scrutinized the Golden Nature, and after once more checking his Inner Core Sword Pill to ensure everything was prepared, he guided the strand of Golden Nature with his divine sense to float toward the Inner Core Sword Pill.
