Chapter 3589: Seeking Opportunity
he could clearly see his grandfather, the fog-filled hut, the large wooden tub, and the young himself grinning with teeth bared inside.Even to his ears, he recalled the conversation he had with his g...After these two appeared, they stood above the sky, overlooking the vast world below.
Although the two were beneath the very swamp where Ginger Cloud was hiding, neither of them discovered Ginger Cloud. Ginger Cloud, who was healing his wounds, was also completely unaware of their arrival.
A moment later, the middle-aged man standing in front suddenly showed a look of emotion and said softly: "Peng'er, this is the battlefield secret realm!"
"It was also the place where my master led me and a group of celestial cultivators to fight against the remnants of Jiang Qiuyang's forces that year!"
Although Jiang Qiu Yang was arrogant and conceited, his subordinates were indeed some strong fighters. That battle was quite a tough one.
Fortunately, in the end, we were the victors, and those traitors are now nothing more than dust, merged with this world.
Of course, these two people were Zhenque Tianzun and his disciple Liu Peng, whom he had taken in ten years ago.
And this Liu Peng, is also Jiang Yun's eldest disciple!
In fact, when Zhan Que Tianzun took Liu Peng as his disciple, although he was indeed impressed by Liu Peng's skills in formations, the real reason was that Liu Peng came from Shan Hai Jie, the lower realm, and was from the same place as Jiang Yun.
Regarding Ginger Qiuyang's origins, most cultivators are clueless. However, the thirteen Great Heavenly Venerables and some extraordinary powerhouses have long speculated that Ginger Qiuyang hails from a mysterious place beyond the Celestial Gathering Domain.
Even they sensed, vaguely, that the path to that mysterious place was hidden somewhere within Jiang Qiuyang's world of mountains and seas.
After Jiang Qiuyang hid Jiang Yun in the Shanhai Realm and sent him to the Lower Realm, these powerful figures began to display their magical powers, searching for the whereabouts of the Shanhai Realm and Jiang Yun.
Only they themselves know for sure who among them found what, and who didn't.
But when Ginger Cloud himself appeared before them, they naturally wouldn't let go of those cultivators related to Ginger Cloud who came from the same Lower Realm, or even the same world.
They wanted to learn about the whereabouts of the lower realm where Ginger Cloud grew and the specific situation of the Shanhai Realm from those cultivators' souls. They hoped to find a path leading to that mysterious place.
This is the real reason why Zhantian Zun and other Tianzuns appeared one after another, wanting to take Liu Peng and Ji Kongfan and others as disciples.
Otherwise, the lower realm portal isn't opening for the first time. These great celestial venerables haven't cared before and have never accepted lower realm cultivators as disciples. Why are they all mobilized this time!
It's a pity that these powerful celestial beings had meticulously planned everything, but at the last moment, the Angel of Patrol suddenly cast the Art of Severing Fate, completely erasing the karmic connections between these cultivators from the same lower realm as Jiang Yun.
This made it impossible for all the great celestial venerables to find any useful information from these cultivators' souls.
But their actions of scrambling for these lower realm cultivators in full view of everyone made it clear to all the people in the Zhutian Gathering Domain. Everyone knew that these cultivators were disciples of their own, so they couldn't go back on their word and could only still bring them back.
The Heavenly Venerable Zhen Que didn't know the situation of the other Heavenly Venerables, but Liu Peng's talent and attainment in formations truly gave him great surprise and unexpected delight.
In some aspects, Liu Peng's insights even surpass his.
To such an extent that he even felt that one day, Liu Peng's mastery of formations might surpass his own.
Therefore, he also began to impart his own knowledge of formations to Liu Peng, nurturing him to the best of his ability.
This time's celestial trial was held to lure out Jiang Yun. Thirteen Great Heavenly Venerables each had to dispatch one or several disciples to spar with the winning cultivators.
After careful consideration, the Celestial Venerable decided to let Liu Peng participate.
Although it was to lure out Jiang Yun, Zhen Que Tian Zun naturally also hoped that Liu Peng could earn him some face. That's why he personally brought Liu Peng to this battlefield secret realm now, allowing him to witness the strength of these top-tier cultivators in his Tian Zun domain.
Listening to Tianzun's words, Liu Peng's face remained expressionless, not uttering a single word.
Having glanced at Liu Peng, a cold glint flashed in Zhenque Tianzun's eyes.
For Liu Peng's performance in formations, Zhen Que Tian Zun is very satisfied.
But besides that, Zhen Que Tianzun held extreme aversion to Liu Peng in other aspects and had thought about killing him several times.
Liu Peng's body cannot be cultivated, unless he is allowed to return to the cycle of reincarnation and be reborn.
"Zen Que Tianzun and Liu Peng have mentioned several times that they would personally escort him into reincarnation and take him back, but Liu Peng refused steadfastly."
Furthermore, in those ten years, not only was Liu Peng extremely taciturn, but his temperament also became quite eccentric.
She never interacts with people and always looks cold and distant.
Even to this day, Liu Peng hasn't called Zhen Tianzun "Master" once!
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Zhen Tianzun didn't feel like continuing to take Liu Peng down. He faintly said, "Alright, I'm going to rest for a while. You yourself wander around here and see the strength of those cultivators!"
"I think that's enough for now, let's head to other secret realms."
After uttering those words, Zhen Que Tian Zun took a single step and vanished without a trace, leaving Liu Peng alone.
Liu Peng also didn't take it to heart, taking a step forward and disappearing just as well.
Although he lacks cultivation, the Heavenly Mechanism Robe on his body was crafted by the Divine Refiner under the commission of the Arrayless Heavenly Venerable. Its function is incredibly powerful.
Not only can it allow him to move like a cultivator, soaring through the heavens and earth, concealing his figure, but it also possesses defensive and offensive formations. Even a Reincarnation Realm expert would find it difficult to harm him.
Therefore, the Heaven's Venerable felt at ease letting him wander freely.
Thus, this area finally returned to peace. As time gradually passed, ten days went by in the blink of an eye.
Even ginger cloud, who was deep in the mire, finally opened his eyes.
His injuries have fully healed.
However, he did not rush to leave, but instead remained there in thought.
This king's strength is greater than mine!
It took so long to heal from his injuries, which naturally made Jiang Yun clearly aware that the King's strength surpassed his own.
Although I still have many trump cards and can even increase my strength, he should also have them. Therefore, when facing him, I still don't have a winning chance.
"Therefore, the only way now is to see if we can obtain some opportunities within this secret realm and improve our strength!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun was just about to get up, but Wang Lao's voice suddenly rang out in his mind: "The formation is here!"
Although the arrival of Tianzun and Liu Peng could escape the notice of everyone else, it was impossible to hide from the divine awareness of Wang Lao.
"What!" Jiang Yun was startled. "As the Great Heavenly Venerable, what is he doing here in this secret realm where practitioners of the Yuan Fa sect reside"
"Could it be that you know my true identity"
"It seems like he brought his disciples to experience this."
Jiang Yun immediately understood and said, "It must be his disciple who closed the door."
The reason why some people want to kill Tie Ru Nan is because his mastery of battle formations might threaten the disciples of Zhan Que Tian Zun, the gatekeeper.
However, this also eased Jiang Yun's mind. If it wasn't specifically for him, then with the status of Zhentian Zun, he shouldn't have dared to lay a hand on Tie Runan.
Wàng Lǎo continued, "Zhèn Què has already left, only his disciple is here wandering about."
"The only thing is, this disciple of his, he doesn't even possess cultivation. That's why he's wearing a robe, incredibly powerful, you all can't see him."
"No cultivation" Jiang Yun was slightly taken aback, as if he had heard this phrase somewhere.
However, he didn't think much about it, his eyes flashed coldly and said: "Wànglǎo, can you see him"
"Nature's energy!"
Ginger nodded and said, "Okay, if he's near me, please let me know. I want to kill him!"
Now, I need to hurry and find Yuting and Rumann.
"By the way, I also want to try my luck and see if I can find fate. At the same time, I also have to avenge this crocodile!"outside the sect are not allowed to seek help from the sect unless they are poisoned or encounter an accident. They cannot bring outsiders to my Yaoshen Sect."Jiang Yun's eyebrows furrowed. "Then is t...
