Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Wei Chengyu was embarrassed and lowered his head, cupping his hands, ”Uncle, you have wronged your junior...”

”Wronged?”

The elder sneered, ”Are you trying to tell me that your failure is all because of Junior Brother Minghuang?”

Feeling the elder’s anger, Wei Chengyu quickly cupped his hands and explained, ”I dare not!”

The elder coldly glanced at him, ”A mistake is a mistake, yet you still think of shirking responsibility. Even after three lifetimes, you don’t understand this?”

Wei Chengyu dared not speak.

Beside him, Lin Ruoxuan couldn’t bear to see him reprimanded further, and immediately cupped his hands, ”Uncle, what should we do next?”

”If we can’t find that Immortal Mansion soon and let that old thing, Great Prosperity True Monarch, get his hands on it and merge this Yangnao Land’s Dao Source into it, it will all be too late.”

The elder’s expression changed drastically upon hearing this.

After pondering for a long time, he said, ”You all keep an eye on things here first.”

”Searching for the Three Immortal Mountains and that old thing Celestial Monarch Mountain, neither matter can be neglected.”

”I will return to Central Province immediately to consult the Sect Leader.”

”By then, even if the Daying Immortal Mansion cannot be found, the Dao Source of this Yangnao Land cannot be allowed to be easily obtained by that old guy, Great Prosperity True Monarch.”

”Otherwise, once he gathers enough strength, he will definitely seek revenge for the past.”

After his words, the elder’s figure instantly turned into a breeze and disappeared on the spot.

On the mountain summit, only Wei Chengyu and Lin Ruoxuan remained.

Once certain the elder had left, Wei Chengyu’s expression became extremely dire!

”Old thing, if it weren’t for Master being under orders to seal himself, how would it be his turn to boss around here!”

”Senior Brother Wei, watch your words!”

Lin Ruoxuan’s expression changed suddenly upon hearing this, ”The All Heaven Monarch is currently the Acting Celestial Monarch, with the other Celestial Monarchs absent in the sect, he’s the only one who can see the Sect Leader.”

”If he hears your words and embellishes them in front of the Sect Leader, even Master won’t be able to protect you.”

Though Wei Chengyu’s face still showed discontent, he said no more.

After a moment of silence between them, Wei Chengyu became a bit agitated, ”The last time we passed through the Void Sea Cliff and looped back to Danzhou, we lost an Ancient Li Treasure Ship, and now we have to look for the Three Immortal Mountains!”

”That old guy at the Southern Border is like a gate guardian blocking the barrier, does he want me to go seek death?”

Hearing this, Lin Ruoxuan also sighed inwardly.

”If it really doesn’t work out, Senior Brother, you might have to find those guys from the Underworld for help.”

”Borrow their Crossing Shuttle, return to Yangnao Land first and talk.”

Upon hearing this, Wei Chengyu’s expression became even uglier.

Though Tribulation Fire Sect and the Underworld had joined forces against Daying Immortal Mansion before, their relationship wasn’t particularly good.

Borrowing the Underworld’s Crossing Shuttle would definitely cost him dearly.

And these costs would not be reimbursed by the sect, he’d have to bear them himself.

”Forget it, Junior Sister, help me contact someone from the Underworld.”

...

Yunshui City.

In the Black Water Pavilion, Shen Yuan was organizing various treasures Shen Wen’an brought back from the sea.

A figure slowly walked down from the third floor.

”Great-grandfather.”

Shen Xiubai came to the second floor of the Black Water Pavilion, cupped his hands slightly, and then sat opposite Shen Yuan.

Looking at the dazzling array of items in front of him, he curiously asked, ”Did Third Grandfather bring all these back from the sea?”

Shen Yuan nodded.

This pile of items in front of him, most were gifts from a Purple Mansion Realm golden-haired monkey, with a small portion found by Shen Wen’an on an island along the way.

Shen Xiubai picked up a bead emitting a faint red glow in front of him and examined it curiously, ”Great-grandfather, what is this?”

Shen Yuan glanced at the bead and smiled lightly, ”It should be a pearl produced by some bivalve sea demon.”

”There are so many here.”

With that, he handed over a cloth bag.

Shen Xiubai took the cloth bag and opened it, finding dozens of pearls of various colors inside.

”Pearls are quite peculiar; they can be refined into magical artifacts, used in medicine, or made into ornaments.”

”Take some of these later for your aunts and grandmother, the rest keep for future needs, saving the trouble of searching for more then.”

As Shen Yuan spoke, he found two more pearls from the accumulated treasures and handed them to Shen Xiubai.

Meanwhile, Shen Xiubai looked at the pearls in his hand, frowning in thought.

After a long while—

His fingertips suddenly lit up with a faint glow, and he focused intently on engraving array patterns on the pearl’s surface.

After engraving the array patterns, a hint of joy appeared on Shen Xiubai’s face.

”Great-grandfather, can I have some of these pearls?”

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan hesitated slightly but nodded, ”Take them if you like, but don’t waste them all.”

”These are not easy to find.”

After nodding, Shen Xiubai happily took the bag of pearls to the third floor to study.

While Shen Yuan sorted the items into different categories, the sky gradually darkened.

Looking at the many treasures before him, he revealed a faint smile.

”It seems that regardless of the world, treasures from the sea are more abundant than those on land.”

”With these five threads of Upper Grade Innate Spiritual Qi, the Shen Family can easily nurture five cultivators who have reached the Fetal Breathing Perfection Realm in the future.”

After a moment of self-talk, Shen Yuan made up his mind to tell Shen Chongming to expand the Shen Family’s influence eastward into the sea.

The grand game at Yangnao Land has reached a critical stage, and time is running short.

The Shen Family needs to use this limited time to enhance their strength as much as possible.

When the Dao Source is finally drawn away, at least they should have a say and not be at the mercy of others owing to their relationship with Xu Xiu and the Shen Family.

...

In the third great harvest, Jianan Temple was aggressively wiped out by the Shen Family, and the Southern Border’s various forces were waiting for the intervention of the Nascent Soul True Monarchs behind the scenes.
