Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Master Fu Yang, once a disciple of Qiyun Valley, lived in seclusion at Fallen Immortal Lake in Danzhou after being expelled, contemplating the enigmatic array.

Later, Shen Wen’an sought Huang Lingshan to find an array master to help Yunshui City set up the City Defense Array, and they found Fu Yang.

Subsequently, after setting up the Ren Water Concealing Spirit Array for Yunshui City, Fu Yang ventured alone to the front of the Void Combination Corridor Array, which separated the Southern Border from Yangnao Land, to contemplate that array.

Somehow, he became a Yin Envoy of the Underworld.

Slain by Shen Wen’an, in his final moments he condensed all his lifetime insights into a legacy pearl, leaving it to the Shen Family.

Only after Shen Xiubai manifested his array talents did he receive the legacy pearl and inherited Fu Yang’s lifetime knowledge.

According to Shen Wen’an’s understanding, Fu Yang was at the Half-Step Golden Core Realm during his lifetime, so the contents of the legacy pearl were likely related to Array Dao.

At present, neither Fu Yang’s legacy nor Shen Xiubai’s personal strength is sufficient to enable him to create such a Secret Realm.

He seriously suspects Shen Xiubai might be the reincarnation of some old monster.

Shen Wen’an’s question also sparked interest from Shen Yuan and Shen Chongming.

About whether Shen Xiubai is the reincarnation of an old monster, Shen Yuan had also doubted before.

Facing the gaze of the three, Shen Xiubai slowly started to speak: ”At this point, I have nothing to conceal anymore. Since we’re meeting today, I’ll reveal everything to you elders.”

He organized his thoughts and began speaking slowly: ”The legacy pearl Master Fu Yang left behind contains three aspects.”

”The first is the insights of his lifetime cultivation, the second is his understanding of Array Dao.”

”What allows me to accomplish this is the most mysterious third part of the legacy pearl.”

”According to the contents left by Master Fu Yang in the legacy pearl, before he was expelled from Qiyun Valley, he encountered a mysterious figure who called himself ’Yu Jingzi’.”

”What is that mysterious figure’s name!?” Shen Yuan asked urgently, his expression shocked.

Shen Xiubai looked at him puzzled and said, ”Called ’Yu Jingzi’; Grandfather, have you heard of this person?”

Shen Yuan’s expression was stunned, and he did not speak.

Hearing the name ”Yu Jingzi,” images from over thirty years ago appeared in his mind, the first time he inexplicably visited the Nine Elements Exiled Immortal Temple aided by the Immortal Mansion.

At that time, because it was his first encounter, his Divine Spirit was somewhat unaccustomed to the pressure of the Nine Elements Exiled Immortal Temple, unable to move.

From the conversation between Cang He and Chi Yuan Ascendant beside him, he learned that the previous owner of the meditation cushion beneath him was ”Yu Jingzi”!

”Child, continue.”

Contemplating as Shen Xiubai’s words paused, Shen Yuan suppressed his thoughts and spoke.

Shen Xiubai nodded and continued: ”Master Fu Yang learned many strange things from that mysterious figure Yu Jingzi.”

”Specifically, these were Yu Jingzi’s ideas, not actively imparted by him to Master Fu Yang.”

”After many days of discussion with Yu Jingzi, upon parting, Master Fu Yang increasingly felt that Yu Jingzi was no ordinary person and recorded everything Yu Jingzi expressed, pondering them in his spare time.”

”However, at that time, Master Fu Yang likely did not know about the ’Way Collapse’ nor the situation of the Cangmin Sea Region.”

”After years of contemplation, he did not understand Yu Jingzi’s peculiar ideas or their purpose.”

”It was only later, combining these ideas with Five Elements Reincarnation, that I gradually understood Yu Jingzi’s thoughts and, through many opportunities, created the Five Elements Secret Realm.”

His words left Shen Chongming and Shen Wen’an bewildered.

Shen Yuan, however, clearly understood the reason Shen Xiubai reached this point.

From his discussions with Chi Yuan Ascendant at Nine Elements Exiled Immortal Temple, it was evident that Yu Jingzi was a legendary cultivator who had once passed the temple’s century-long examination.

Thus linked to him, Shen Xiubai’s peculiar abilities seemed explicable.

After a pause, Shen Xiubai continued: ”I say it was a fortuitous coincidence because it all seemed destined.”

”The reason this Secret Realm could materialize was largely due to Yu Jingzi’s ideas and insights. The Copper Pot you obtained, Grandfather, along with the later-acquired Innate Five-Colored Earth, seemed perfectly timed.”

”These two treasures, with the Copper Pot forming the framework of the Five Elements Secret Realm, and the Innate Five-Colored Earth allowing me to perfectly integrate into the entire realm, along with the Earth Vein Spiritual Qi extracted from Danzhou by the root of the Earth Mother Spirit Vine...”

Shen Xiubai showed a relieved smile and said, ”Therefore, I implore Grandfather and Third Master, as well as the elders of the family, not to grieve for me. This was all destined.”

”Moreover, when our Shen Family eventually relocates into the Five Elements Secret Realm, I can constantly be with our clansmen, watching the descendants grow, prosper, and thrive...”

The three present fell into silence.

The more Shen Xiubai spoke this way, the more uncomfortable they felt.

Especially Shen Yuan.

As one deeply familiar with the Path of Great Derivation and capable of sensing the wonders of fate, he unexpectedly realized that those of Shen Wenyan’s line seemed inherently destined to sacrifice for the family.

He didn’t know if this tragic ending was a continuation of the misfortune in his destiny or something else.

”Grandfather, I wish to ask you for a favor.”

After a moment of silence, Shen Xiubai suddenly looked at Shen Yuan and bowed.

”Child, speak.”

Shen Yuan, who returned to himself, promptly responded.
