Yuming’s heart sank. While he did not know whether Suli was sincere or not, but it seemed to him that wanting to have Taishang Daoist Sect as an alliance against Qing Xuan would not be an easy task.
He said,
Ultimately my friend Wu Qingzi was still the sect’s true disciple, do you really want to just let it go?

Suli laughed,
Zhenren Shen indeed behaved excessively. It has also affected everyone’s image. How about this, I will write a letter in the name of Taishang Daoist Sect to Zhenren Shen. I expect him to be reasonable.


I guess it won’t be that easy. Zhenren Shen isn’t someone who changes his mind easily,
Yuming the Honored Celestial said.
Suli tapped on the stone table and said,
My friend, why don’t you ask the three elders of Taisu to make peace? If you can get Zhenren Xiangshan to uphold justice, it will be best. While we lot have supernatural power, but life itself is innocent. If the situation reaches a stage which can’t be saved, the whole of Yuan Continent will be in trouble.



Yuming the Honored Celestial knew Suli had some reservations about Qing Xuan, but he too did not want to be upfront about it. Ultimately he wanted Guangqing to make it a small matter and move on.
If Huanzhen and the rest were still around, Yuming the Honored Celestial would be willing to let it go, but now Qing Xuan was on the rise but Guangqing had no continuation. If all the old folks did not pass the trial and passed away, Guangqing would be a rank below Qing Xuan forever.
Guangqing was already in such a terrible state, and hence he was determined to make sure Qing Xuan did not have a good time. There was no way to resolve the conflict between the two.
Yuming the Honored Celestial had thousands of thoughts, but they did not show on his face. He spoke peacefully,
I understand what you mean. I will stop disturbing you, but there is something I need to say before I leave.


What is it?
Suli asked.

Zhenren Shen’s talent is way ahead of me. I think one day he will be another Zhenren Xiangshan. If he chooses to stay here like Zhenren Xiangshan, I can tell you that only two out of four main Daoist sects will remain,
Yuming the Honored Celestial spoke slowly, and gazed at the young man in front of him.
The fortune for Xuanmen in the Yuan Continent was only that much. If you had more, then I would have less. Xuantian Sect had Lu Jiuyuan which already showed their strength. If Qing Xuan were to rise, even if Taishang Daoist Sect had always been outstanding, they could be affected.

Ups and downs have its cycle, but what you said makes sense. I will take note of it.

Suli saw the departure of Yuming the Honored Celestial, and then he picked up the Yin and Yang bangle that Yuming never brought along. He passed it on to the Daoist child, and said,
Yuming is indeed generous. Even within Mount Kun, we can’t even have that many of these Yin and Yang bangles. Take it and have fun with it.

The Daoist child took the bangle. He spoke in a curious tone,
Daoist, you said that if Qing Xuan were to rise, the other celestial sects will be on a decline. Why don’t you help the old man out?



Suli knocked on his head and pretended to be angry,
You talk too much.


Hee, respected Daoist, I will feed the cows.
After taking the Yin and Yang bangle, the child was jumping around, and soon he was far away.
Suli sighed and spoke to himself,
This is not the second Lu Jiuyuan. The honored master, you indeed had the foresight to leave this all behind and for me to bring Taishang Daoist Sect to an end.

A look of worry flashed through his face.
Eastern Sea, Qing Xuan Daoist Sect, Taiyi Peak.
Shen Lian had never stepped out of Taiyi Peak for a year. Nobody had stepped foot in Qing Xuan Hall too.
For such a person to be focusing on something entirely, he could have such unimaginable potential which he himself could not even predict.
There was ground fire in front of him, which was concentrated in an area of ten feet.
If the energy within it exploded, it could possibly burn the river and boil the ocean within moments, and even he had to pay a heavy price for it. That was the reason why he never diverted his attention throughout the days and nights in Qing Xuan Hall.
Since the grandmaster found him Tianyi true water, cosmic dust, and cold iron of a-thousand-year-old, he had been ceremonially cultivating the five elements magical sword. Since three days ago, the sky had been rumbling, and on top of Qing Xuan Hall, there appeared the five-color lights which painted the sky of Taiyi Peak. They formed a huge whirlpool as if the sky had been pierced through. It made clear that some divine object would soon appear.



The five Qi are reaching the sky. I am not sure if it will affect the Big Dipper,
Fairy Ziling stood at the peak and spoke slowly.
Lingguang stood at less than one foot away from her. Her beauty beat even the five peaks of Qing Xuan. Even though she was next to Ziling, it felt like she was separated by the boundless Universe.
She dared not to have any wrath, as she felt most closely about her increasing power, which had no end and was unpredictable, like the Great Way.
Lingguang replied,
There is one thing I don’t understand. The sword seed he uses is just a thousand-year-old sandalwood. Compared it with the Phoenix’s fire of nirvana, Tianyi true water, cosmic dust, and a thousand-year-old cold iron, the material is far from inferior. How can he turn it into a magical sword? Is he not afraid that halfway through it fails?

Ziling seemed to be in a great mood, she replied,
Everything in the world is not separated from Yin and Yang, and the five elements, but it is the hardest to achieve balance within the five elements. As such, to cultivate a treasure of the five elements, one has to find five divine objects which are of equivalent quality. For Shen Lian’s sword it is different. In addition to practicing the sword, he is also obtaining a new Daoist body. When the sword is formed, it is a part of him. This is not something comparable to an external object. A thousand-year-old sandalwood is an object of his heart he obtained by chance. After going through the fire of nirvana, it became an extension of Shen Lian’s blood and flesh. Comparing it with the other three, they are now considered external. With the external object entering his body and taking consideration the five elements when the sword fetus is reformed, it will then blend in well with his spirit and Qi. Once it succeeds, the five-element magical sword will be one with him. There won’t be such a thing that destroys the balance. The eyes are weak, but the bones are hard. Do you think they clash?

Lingguang stayed quiet for a while and sighed,
I always thought in terms of cultivation experience, I can see through some part of you guys, but in terms of knowledge, it is hard for me to acquire.


Cultivation knowledge should not be kept to oneself. Our knowledge comes from the accumulation of Qing Xuan for generations. Qing Xuan doesn’t just have successful Daoists – there are countless Daoists who failed too, but as long as they are sincere in this pursuit, in our heart, we pay them equal respect. Without the blood and tears of the previous generation, how can the later generation succeed? From this aspect, Guangqing isn’t bad.
What Ziling said did not express any bias towards Guangqing. In the beginning, Lingguang felt surprised, then she was impressed by her magnanimity.
She was silent for a while, then she said,
In the end, Guangqing still cares too much about the result.

Ziling smiled and said,
The last time when Taishang and Taisu sent a message to me saying that I’ve wronged you by only using you as a servant. When I told you about it, why didn’t you reply?

Lingguang’s expression looked complicated,
My heart doesn’t feel wronged, but as an individual I do.




You are an impressive woman, if it wasn’t because we had different standpoints, we could have been friends.
