"Then I wonder why you came to see me?" Ye Yang asked.
“For cooperation.”
There was a gleam in Kunwuzi's eyes.
"I am here on behalf of the Sky-Splitting Sword Sect and would like to cooperate with you."
"Cooperation?" Ye Yang was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "What is the possibility of cooperation between us? Could it be that when the Great Fortune Dynasty attacks, the two sides will join forces and advance and retreat together?"
The old man shook his head and smiled.
"No, no, the grievances between our Lietian Sword Sect and the Great Fortune Dynasty are not something that outsiders can interfere with. What I want to cooperate with you on is another matter."
"I don't know. What do you think of the Taixu Dao Sect?"
When Ye Yang heard this, he did not respond immediately. Taixu Taoism has always been the main attacking sect among the three holy places.
In addition, there is the peerless figure Li Qinglian in their sect.
It is not known whether this person is real or fake, but he is the only one I have heard of who can fight with the legendary Lord Ren Taxian.
It has always been known as the number one holy place among the three holy places.
The middle-aged man's words at this moment made Ye Yang hesitate. He didn't know what the other party was trying to do.
However, there is still some cooperation between Feitian Sect and Taixu Taoist Sect. He is not familiar with this person and does not know what the other party's purpose is.
So, he followed the official words and spoke.
"The Taixu Dao Sect is the leader of the Dao Sect, with great strength and far-reaching influence."
Ye Yang answered after some hesitation.
Kunwuzi nodded: "Yes, the Taixu Dao Sect is powerful and has been making frequent moves. It intends to expand its sphere of influence, which has had a significant impact on the balance of the three holy places."
"Although my Sky-Splitting Sword Sect is not afraid, we do not want to make enemies with them for no reason. Therefore, I would like to ask you to help us monitor the movements of the Taixu Dao Sect at the appropriate time."
Ye Yang sneered a few times.
"Senior, you are joking. Not to mention that Taixu Dao Sect and Feitian Sect are now on good terms."
"Besides, you and I just met for the first time. Just based on these few words of yours, I will part ways with Taixu Dao Sect!"
"How can this be."
"What if the Sky-Splitting Sword Sect is also willing to increase its support for the Feitian Sect?"
"My friend, I know that Feitian Sect and Taixu Dao Sect are on good terms, but the world of cultivation is turbulent and it is not a bad thing for multiple parties to bet on it. It is true that you have now broken through to the realm of a real person."
"However, Sect Leader Gu is not in the sect. You can't handle many things by yourself."
“Cooperation is a good thing for both parties.”
As Kunwuzi finished speaking, the entire space seemed to fall into an indescribable silence.
His words were full of meaning, and every sentence seemed to be well thought out.
Seeing that Ye Yang did not answer immediately, Kunwuzi continued.
"In this ever-changing world, no one knows who will have the last laugh. It is always better to have one more friend than one more enemy."
"Although our Sky-Splitting Sword Sect is not as large as the Taixu Dao Sect, we also have our own foundation and strength."
"We can provide you with resources, and even some rare treasures and spiritual techniques."
"Help Feitianmen develop faster. And you just need to give us some support when we encounter difficulties."
Ye Yang was silent for a moment. He knew that what Kunwuzi said made sense.
Feitianmen is indeed weak now, and is also facing the threat of siege from the Dayun Dynasty.
If we can gain an ally like the Lietian Sword Sect, it will naturally be of great benefit to the development of the sect.
However, he also knows that such cooperation is not without risks.
The situation of the Lietian Sword Sect is delicate, and it is divided into several factions. According to his speculation, Kunwuzi is obviously more inclined to the Dayun Dynasty.
Once the interests of both parties conflict, former allies may become enemies.
Ye Yang took a deep breath, looked at Kunwuzi firmly, and spoke slowly.
"Senior, I will seriously consider your proposal, but this matter is of great importance and I need to think about it again."
Kunwuzi smiled slightly, as if he was not surprised by Ye Yang's answer, and nodded.
"This is natural. Master Ye can seriously consider it."
After he finished speaking, Kunwuzi stood up, took out a jade slip from his sleeve and handed it to Ye Yang.
"This contains some of the resources and conditions that our Lietian Sword Sect is willing to provide. You can take it back and show it to the higher-ups of Feitian Sect."
Ye Yang took the jade slip and took a quick look at it.
There are many treasures inside, such as the purple crystal mine, the sharing rights of the spiritual herb garden, and several precious spiritual secret books.
He understood that this was not just a cooperation agreement, but also a way for the Lietian Sword Sect to demonstrate its strength.
"Thank you, senior. Goodbye."
Ye Yang bowed, then turned and left.
When Kunwuzi saw Ye Yang leaving, a satisfied smile appeared on his face, as if he was very pleased with Ye Yang's answer.
……
The mountain behind Feitianmen.
Sheer cliffs, rolling sea of clouds, a breeze blowing, and on the top of the mountain, the light and shadow of dusk and the sea of clouds interweave, magnificent and vast.
The two of them stood in the air beside a mountain stream.
A man was dressed in black, had a determined look on his face, a slightly dark complexion, and an upright figure.
There was another person next to him, wearing green clothes, and he didn't look very old.
At this moment, there was a jade-colored alchemy furnace in front of him. He was muttering something and making a hand gesture. Under his control, the tiny mountain stream was extracted with water essence like a water python.
They threw them into the alchemy furnace in front of them.
After a while, the jade furnace began to flicker with star-like light. When the furnace opened, a large amount of misty spiritual fog floated out.
The aroma of traditional Chinese medicine was tangy in the spiritual mist. When the spiritual mist was blown away by the wind, three water pills the size of soybeans were revealed inside.
"Brother Chu, what do you think of these three Water Moving Pills?"
Cui Qinggui asked.
Chu Hao took a look and nodded slightly.
"The quality is good. Although this Xing Shui Dan is only a first-level water magic pill, it is difficult to refine. I think Junior Brother will soon be able to break through to the ranks of a second-level water magic pill master."
His voice was calm, but there was admiration in his eyes.
Many years ago, Hall Master Ye designated a person to come to the back mountain to practice alchemy skills, but he did not take it seriously and let him teach the skills on behalf of his master.
Later, after asking around, he found out that this junior fellow apprentice was actually from the famous Cui family in the capital.
As summer passed and winter came, the two had been practicing in the back mountains for many years.
Cui Qinggui smiled and resealed the jade bottle. He no longer had the arrogance he had before. He handed three Xingshui Pills to Chu Hao.
"Brother Chu, these Xingshui Pills are just a token of my appreciation."
Chu Hao did not refuse. He took the jade bottle and said "thank you" lightly.
The two chatted for a while, discussing their experiences in cultivation and alchemy.
Until it gets late.
Suddenly, the earth shook, and there seemed to be something huge rolling in the back mountain, with a fascinating aura.
Chu Hao couldn't help but be shocked.
After Hall Master Ye left, he placed the scaly demon elephant in the back mountain to suppress the area.
The two of them stayed in the back mountain, wiping the body of the scaly demon elephant and serving this elephant demon.
Normally, this elephant demon was always quiet, but today, for some reason, it suddenly became agitated.
Chu Hao was shocked to sense the huge changes in the demon elephant. He hurriedly took out a jade plate from his arms, which was engraved with complicated patterns.
He called out to Cui Qinggui who was beside him and spoke.
"Brother Qinggui, Lord Demon Elephant loves to stir up clouds and mist. You and I can use the Spiritual Essence Card to extract the water essence and wash its body. I think it will be able to keep quiet."
Without any hesitation, Chu Hao squeezed it hard, and the jade token suddenly turned into a ray of light that shot up into the sky.
With Cui Qinggui's cooperation, a large amount of water essence was drawn from the nearby stream, which turned into a ball of spiritual mist and floated towards the side.
The two followed the spiritual mist.
I saw an open space on the top of the mountain.
A huge demon elephant with sharp fangs shook its body, causing a violent tremor in the mountain behind Feitianmen.
The two controlled the spiritual mist, dropped spiritual water, and sprayed it on the demon elephant.
But instead of calming down, the demon elephant began to tumble even more violently.
"What's going on? Why is Lord Demon Elephant's mood swings so drastically?"
"Could it be that Master Ye has returned?"
Chu Hao suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.
Facing this legendary figure and his nominal alchemy master, he had infinite respect in his heart.
Thinking about it carefully, I haven't seen the master who taught me how to make elixirs for a long time.
at the same time.
Deep in the mountains, Ye Yang was sitting cross-legged on a cliff.
A map was floating in front of him, with densely packed light spots flickering on it.
This map is the marching map of the Zhuxian Army that was taken from the burned old man.
Ye Yang looked deeply, and lightly tapped the map with his finger. A spot of light instantly enlarged, revealing the detailed topography.
"I heard that the Zhuxian Army suffered heavy losses after being ambushed at the edge of the blood sea. They should not attack again in the short term."
Suddenly, Ye Yang raised his eyebrows slightly.
"It's time to go back. I don't know what changes have taken place in Feitianmen over the years."
Ye Yang waved his hand gently, the surrounding spiritual energy gathered together, and the whole person turned into a stream of light and disappeared on the spot.
……
Feitianmen, back mountain.
"Chu Hao, thank you for your hard work over the years."
Chu Hao looked at the figure flying in the air in front of him and was so excited that he could hardly speak. He quickly knelt down to salute.
"Chu Hao meets the Hall Master. It is my honor to serve the Hall Master."
Ye Yang nodded and turned to look at the scaly demon elephant.
The elephant demon had calmed down at this time, as if it had sensed the breath of its master and became unusually docile.
Ye Yang fell from the air, gently stroked the head of the magic elephant, and felt the powerful force hidden in it.
Cui Qinggui, who was standing next to him, looked at Ye Yang who suddenly appeared, especially when he saw how calm and effortless he was, as if he had floated from the air without any help.
I couldn't help but be stunned.
"Master, this is a strong man in the realm of Master."
"Master Ye has broken through to the realm of a true person."
Thinking about it for a moment, a huge wave arose in his heart.
At this time, Chu Hao, who was standing aside, noticed that Cui Qinggui's expression was not right, so he reached out and poked him, only to see that Cui Qinggui looked nervous.
Now the two of them are no longer rookies, after a little thought, Chu Hao also thought of something, and his expression changed drastically.
The figure standing in front of the elephant demon was covered in clear light, condensed but not radiating, and standing in the air. He seemed to blend with the breath between heaven and earth, and his whole body exuded a kind of tranquility that transcended the world.
Although it looks ordinary, but upon closer inspection and careful feeling, it is like a dazzling sun, illuminating the entire valley like daylight.
Chu Hao had to turn away to avoid being hurt in the eyes by the figure.
He covered his eyes, a few tears flowed out, and then he was ecstatic.
"Yes, it is said that Master Ye has already reached the realm of martial perfection. He went out to look for opportunities and has not returned for many years."
"Now that he has appeared again, he must have broken through to the realm of a real person."
"Doesn't this mean that my Feitian Sect has another True Person Realm expert to suppress its foundation?"
Both of them focused their eyes on this real person, their hearts filled with awe and curiosity.
Soon, the news about Ye Yang's return spread throughout Feitianmen.
Ye Yang's arrival was like a thunder that broke through the calm sky, shocking everyone in Feitianmen.
After a while, Wang Xijing, Ge Canhong and a group of hall masters and protectors also arrived at the back mountain.
The two of them are very powerful and can see something different from Cui Qinggui and Chu Hao.
"you……"
Wang Xijing took a deep breath, seemed a little bit unbelieving, and finally confirmed it.
"Master Ye, have you reached the realm of a true person?"
Wang Xijing couldn't help but ask, his voice trembling slightly, and it was obvious that he could hardly suppress his inner excitement.
Ye Yang smiled slightly and nodded. His eyes were as deep as the abyss, yet with a gentle light.
"Yes, I just broke through not long ago."
His voice was calm and indifferent, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
The crowd suddenly exploded with discussions.
The realm of true man is a legendary existence, where one can live up to eight hundred years and go through spring, summer, autumn and winter without losing his golden nature.
It can suppress the strength of one side and the immortals on land.
And now, a real living person is standing in front of them, how can they not be shocked?
Ye Yang looked around and he knew that his appearance had caused an uproar.
"The path of cultivation is long and difficult. I was just lucky and was able to break through by chance."
His words were simple, but everyone could hear the hardship and difficulty in them.
They know that breaking through to the realm of the real person is bound to be full of ups and downs, and people say that it is good luck. This is just modesty.
Wang Xijing and Ge Canhong stood aside, their hearts filled with even greater turmoil.
The two were originally seniors, but they never expected to be overtaken by the cultivation level of Ye Yang, a junior.
In addition to happiness, there is also a sense of desolation and sadness in my heart.
"Master Ye, since you have already broken through to the realm of a real person, I think we should hold a celebration for you and invite all Taoist friends from all over the world."
Wang Xijing seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but make a suggestion.
Holding a celebration is only one aspect; so-called congratulations are not worth anything.
But the meaning behind it is extremely extraordinary.
This is to demonstrate the strength of Feitianmen, and it is also at a time when the Eastern Zhuxian Army is attacking vigorously.
A shot of stimulant for the forces and disciples under the sect.
It can deter countless villains.
