Chapter 901: Time Riding Six Dragons to Command the Heaven Sutra

Han Ronglu followed Duan Shuyu into the cave, his heart filled with curiosity.

He wondered what could possibly be so important that it would compel a Core Formation cultivator like Jiang Zongheng to personally make an appearance.

The cave was simple, unremarkable in any way, and they quickly reached its end. However, Duan Shuyu activated a spiritual talisman, and a golden light enveloped them both, allowing them to pass through the cave wall.

Bathed in golden light, Han Ronglu felt his vision suddenly clear. A wider underground passage appeared before him, its floor even paved with bluestone slabs.

It was as bright as day, as large luminous pearls embedded in the walls emitted a soft glow, illuminating the winding, deep passage.

He followed Duan Shuyu deeper and deeper. The air around them seemed to grow thinner, and there was also a strange, oppressive force that weighed on one's heart.

Finally, they arrived at the center of a vast cavern, which was clearly the heart of the cave.

In the middle of the cavern stood a tall stone platform. On the platform rested an ancient, round cauldron, and inside the cauldron lay a complete skeleton.

The refined-looking Jiang Zongheng stood before the platform, holding a jade scroll scripture, his brows furrowed.

"Master, it's a sect disciple."

Duan Shuyu led Han Ronglu to Jiang Zongheng. The latter immediately greeted him respectfully as Teacher Jiang; Han Ronglu knew Jiang Zongheng as the Headmaster during his time at Longevity Academy.

"This is the resting place of a member of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court's imperial bloodline. In the final moments of his life, he attempted to refine the earth's spiritual meridians to achieve the Emperor's Physique, but failed and turned into this withered skeleton."

Jiang Zongheng nodded, pointing at the treasured cauldron and skeleton on the stone platform as he spoke.

Han Ronglu was shocked upon hearing this. In the academy's cultural classes, he had heard teachers speak of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court more than once. He knew it was a superpower that ruled the Eastern Continent in the previous era, to which even the current Sacred Lands had bowed in submission.

"To cultivate the Emperor's Physique, in addition to earth meridian qi, one needs to consume a Hidden Dragon Pill, which is refined from dragon veins. However, at that time, the dragon veins in the Eastern Barrens were sparse, so his failure was to be expected."

Jiang Zongheng spoke again. Hearing this, Han Ronglu immediately took out the jade slip Zhao Gui had given him and respectfully presented it.

The pill formula recorded on it was precisely that of the Hidden Dragon Pill.

Jiang Zongheng took it and examined it with his spiritual sense, nodding slightly. "Upon returning to the sect, I will credit you with a thousand contribution points. Do not let anyone else know about this pill formula."

The Hidden Dragon Pill was only useful for those who cultivated the Eastern Earth Imperial Court's techniques, but it happened to help Jiang Zongheng resolve a matter close to his heart.

On the Eastern Continent, the emergence of a unified mortal power like the Great Zhao Dynasty was causing an unprecedentedly massive dragon vein to form beneath the Eastern Barrens. Although it had not yet developed sentience due to time, it was foreseeable that as long as the Five Elements Sect remained, especially after the Seeds of Dao Law were sown, this era of peace and prosperity would last for a very long time.

After a hundred years, the dragon vein would fully form and develop sentience. At that time, it would trigger a response from the Moral Sect's Heavenly and Earthly Xuanji Instrument.

Though not targeted for elimination like demonic cultivators, sentient dragon veins had always been a taboo for the Sacred Lands.

None of the Sacred Lands in the Eastern Continent wished to see another Eastern Earth Imperial Court emerge.

Furthermore, absorbing the dragon vein's sentience was key to achieving true mastery of the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture."

After the Eastern Earth Imperial Court fell apart, all the sentient dragon veins in the Eastern Continent were eradicated by the Moral Sect – something Lou Xuelong had told Chen Mobai at the time.

It was for this reason that after Chen Mobai established a unified dynasty, he informed Jiang Zongheng, who was in charge of the mortal realm, about this matter.

The Five Elements Sect could certainly not contend with the Moral Sect now, so they had to try their best to prevent the dragon vein from developing sentience. Originally, according to Chen Mobai's plan, it was to extract dragon vein qi to refine Earth Meridian Pills.

However, the pill formulas from the Immortal Gate were too conservative. Chen Mobai had used his Square Inch Scroll to estimate that refining a thousand Earth Meridian Pills would barely offset the annual growth rate of the Eastern Barrens' dragon vein.

Because Earth Meridian Pills could enhance spiritual roots, they were too astounding in the Milky Way Realm. Therefore, if too many were refined, they would have to be destroyed. Such waste was unacceptable to Chen Mobai and Qing Nü, who hailed from the Immortal Gate.

Since it would still be several decades before the Eastern Barrens' dragon vein fully formed, Chen Mobai was not overly anxious. If absolutely necessary, he could use the dragon vein to refine artifacts; the Fourth-tier True Dragon Cauldron from Chicheng Mountain was refined in that way. Moreover, this dragon vein qi was a perfect match for cultivating the Dragon Transformation Scripture. If all else failed, he would simply endure the hardship of practicing the Dragon Transformation Scripture himself.

However, Jiang Zongheng was unaware of these options. So, after learning that a sentient dragon vein would attract the Moral Sect's attention, he had been trying to find ways to consume the dragon vein qi and prevent it from developing sentience.

The Hidden Dragon Pill he had now obtained was perfectly suitable.

After collecting everything from the cave dwelling into his storage bag, Jiang Zongheng exited with Duan Shuyu and Han Ronglu.

"Notify the sect's Spiritual Meridian and Formation Departments to come here and set up a formation restriction to prevent others from entering," Jiang Zongheng told Duan Shuyu. The latter immediately nodded and then took out his Heaven-Connecting Instrument to make contact on the spot.

Yan County, where Beiyuan City was located, was an area with priority signal coverage, and there was a signal base station nearby, allowing for calls using the Heaven-Connecting Instrument.

After leaving Duan Shuyu to finish up here, Jiang Zongheng led Han Ronglu towards the imperial capital.

"Granduncle-Master Jiang, that jade slip with the Hidden Dragon Pill formula was given to me by this prince for authentication."

At this moment, Han Ronglu saw Zhao Gui not far away and, thinking that Zhao Gui also deserved some credit, couldn't help but speak up.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zongheng immediately waved to Zhao Gui. When the latter approached, he immediately performed a grand salute: "This humble prince, Zhao Gui, greets Grand Tutor Jiang!"

"Let's return together. It's also been a while since I've seen His Majesty."

As he spoke, Jiang Zongheng lightly waved his sleeve. A verdant green leaf, like a flying boat, landed on the ground and expanded. Under Han Ronglu's guidance, Zhao Gui apprehensively stepped onto it.

The Imperial Capital, Royal Palace!

King Zhao, once young and vigorous, now had his hair streaked with white. Seeing Jiang Zongheng, he personally led his ministers to greet him.

After exchanging courtesies, only the two of them remained in the grand hall.

"Grand Tutor, it's been a long time. You haven't changed at all."

King Zhao looked at Jiang Zongheng, whose appearance remained unchanged and showed no signs of aging, and spoke with emotion.

"Your Majesty is as distinguished as ever."

Jiang Zongheng politely exchanged greetings, then spoke of his recent findings.

Due to the complexity of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court's affairs, he did not elaborate to King Zhao, merely stating that it was indeed something left behind by a cultivator that might be useful to the Five Elements Sect, and thus needed to be taken back.

"Thank you for your efforts this time, Grand Tutor."

King Zhao smiled upon hearing this.

Among the mortal dynasties, he was the closest to the Five Elements Sect. After all, as the King, if any matter arose in the Eastern Barrens that mortals could not resolve, he would inform Jiang Zongheng immediately.

This incident was no exception. Zhao Gui's people had just retrieved the items from the cave, and King Zhao immediately received the news. He dispatched a large army to surround the area and then notified Jiang Zongheng.

Because only he knew how terrifying cultivators could be to mortals.

If a cave dwelling left by demonic cultivators were to fall into the hands of ignorant mortals, it would truly lead to endless calamities.

"Your Majesty, please stay. I shall return to Beiyuan now."

Jiang Zongheng rose to take his leave, but King Zhao escorted him to the main entrance.

"Grand Tutor, I can feel my body failing, yet this vast empire of ten thousand li is still difficult to let go of. I wonder if the Immortal Sect could bestow some longevity pills or even a cultivation technique?"

Jiang Zongheng, who was about to leave, heard King Zhao's words and turned to look at him. The firm-faced youth of yesteryear now had loose skin and faint age spots. Only his eyes faintly retained the spirit of his younger days.

Indeed, these were signs of nearing the end of his lifespan.

"Your Majesty, sickness, aging, and death are the laws of the Great Dao. Even we cultivators will have a day when we grow old and die. However, the Great Zhao Dynasty you established is an immortal monument in the annals of the Eastern Barrens. In a sense, your name is already a part of eternity."

Jiang Zongheng replied very tactfully. King Zhao understood his meaning, sighed, and his formerly straight back instantly hunched over.

Jiang Zongheng left a bottle of pills for regulating vital qi, then rode his green leaf flying boat, departing from above the imperial capital.

A long while later, after all traces of Jiang Zongheng had vanished from the sky, King Zhao slowly turned and returned to his throne in the grand hall.

Another incense stick's worth of time passed, and a tall, square-faced, black-robed cultivator silently walked in.

"Immortal Master Mou, it is just as you predicted!"

King Zhao looked at the black-robed cultivator and spoke with a sorrowful expression.

"The Five Elements Sect only needs an obedient mortal dynasty. It doesn't matter who sits on the throne. If you die, your son will be more obedient, and naturally, they won't impart cultivation methods to you."

The black-robed cultivator was named Mou Xiaotian, a demonic cultivator from Dongli. Following a treasure map he obtained from a raid, he risked everything to traverse the Eastern Continent and arrive in the Eastern Barrens, where he found that cave dwelling.

There were also restrictions there, but after countless years, they had long since been damaged, making entry easy.

However, Mou Xiaotian was greatly disappointed by what he found inside. Over the long years, all the pills, magic artifacts, and the like had weathered away and were unusable.

The treasured cauldron, though, was quite good; it had only dropped from its original Fourth-tier to Third-tier. But to activate and control it, one needed the cultivation techniques of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court.

The cultivation technique was indeed recorded on that jade scroll scripture, which detailed the famous "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture."

Although not a complete version, it allowed cultivation up to the Nascent Soul realm.

However, he couldn't practice it at all, nor would he switch to cultivating it.

Because when the Eastern Earth Imperial Court declined, the demonic path was the most ruthless. The Sacred Lands, at least, had to maintain the order of the righteous path—the Moral Sect merely acted to slay dragons—but the demonic path sent out almost all its elites, thoroughly exterminating the bloodline descendants of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court, deeply fearing that another Human Emperor would emerge in later generations to suppress the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands and make all demons and evil creatures bow their heads.

However, Mou Xiaotian was not entirely without gains. Inside the cauldron, along with the skeleton, was a strangely shaped jade pendant.

Its grade was indiscernible, but even after long ages, a faint halo still flowed around the jade pendant, indicating its mysterious and extraordinary nature. He cautiously used a puppet to retrieve the jade pendant and placed it in his storage bag, intending to have an expert appraise it later at an exchange meeting.

Mou Xiaotian had originally intended to take the treasured cauldron, jade scroll, and skeleton with him.

But he soon used a demonic secret art to sense that beneath the Eastern Barrens, a vibrant dragon vein was rapidly growing and forming.

After exiting the cave dwelling and inquiring about the situation in the Eastern Barrens, he quickly understood what was happening.

He had never imagined that an immortal sect would undertake such a thankless task as ruling mortals.

In Dongli, mortals had always been treated like livestock. The only reason mortals still existed was because some sects needed resources for their cultivation techniques and artifacts.

Precisely for this reason, mortals in Dongli lived scattered, as those gathered together were more likely to be captured by demonic cultivators for their practices.

Although Mou Xiaotian knew that mortals lived in groups in righteous cultivators' territories, a unified mortal dynasty like the Eastern Barrens, which was on the verge of forming a dragon vein spirit, was unimaginable.

Because he knew that the Eastern Earth Sacred Lands would slay dragons.

And after sensing the existence of the dragon vein beneath the Eastern Barrens, Mou Xiaotian had an idea.

He hailed from the most mysterious of the eighteen demonic sects, the Incarnation Demonic Sect. However, because this lineage was universally condemned even within the demonic path, he had another disguised identity as a disciple of the Corpse Dissolution Demonic Sect.

The first time he saw King Zhao, he felt that this person was destined to become his incarnation.

Coincidentally, King Zhao also had a heart set on seeking immortals and the Dao, pursuing eternal life. So, when Mou Xiaotian approached him, King Zhao revered him as a celestial being. And when Mou Xiaotian imparted the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture," which he had obtained from the cave dwelling, to King Zhao, the latter was incredibly excited.

Because this cultivation technique did not require a spiritual root to practice.

However, King Zhao still held a glimmer of hope for the Five Elements Sect, so he used the cave dwelling as a final test.

He wondered if the Five Elements Sect, upon obtaining this technique, would impart it to him, the co-ruler of the Eastern Barrens.

Mou Xiaotian did not object to this.

Because he knew that the Five Elements Sect would certainly not allow mortals to cultivate the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture." That would be to make enemies of all the Sacred Lands, and even the demonic and monstrous paths.

The three most powerful forces in the Eastern Continent would not permit the emergence of a second Eastern Earth Imperial Court.

Not even a hint of it.

As expected, Jiang Zongheng didn't even mention the matter and simply left.

At this point, King Zhao was completely disappointed with the Five Elements Sect.

"Please arrange the dragon lair, Immortal Master Mou. From now on, everything regarding this humble prince shall be entrusted to you."

King Zhao felt his body, even standing straight was incredibly difficult, and he finally made up his mind, no longer hesitating.

"Hahaha, rest assured, I will lead you onto the path of eternal life."

Mou Xiaotian burst into laughter upon hearing this.

After Jiang Zongheng returned to Beiyuan City, he received a call from Duan Shuyu via the Heaven-Connecting Instrument, informing him that King Zhao had suddenly passed away during the night. Fortunately, an imperial decree had been left behind, and the eldest legitimate son, Zhao Qian, had ascended the throne as the new King Zhao.

"Return to the imperial court and stabilize the situation."

Jiang Zongheng gave Duan Shuyu an instruction. The latter was a pillar general who had helped conquer half of the Great Zhao Dynasty's territory, and his prestige in the imperial capital was no less than that of King Zhao.

"Yes, Master!"

After ending the call with Duan Shuyu, Jiang Zongheng immediately ascended Beiyuan Mountain and handed over the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture" and the items obtained from the cave dwelling to Chen Mobai.

"Indeed, there are many extraordinary people in this world; there's even a cultivation technique that doesn't require a spiritual root," Chen Mobai exclaimed in wonder after reading the jade scroll scripture.

However, this did not mean that lacking a spiritual root was better; it merely lowered the barrier to entry. With a spiritual root's assistance, the efficiency of absorbing dragon vein qi would be even greater.

Moreover, without a spiritual root, one would need to consume Hidden Dragon Pills to begin cultivation, and even during subsequent practice, the supply of Hidden Dragon Pills could not be interrupted.

Ultimately, this cultivation technique merely replaced the step of absorbing and refining spiritual qi with a spiritual root, which was essential for traditional cultivators, with the Hidden Dragon Pill.

Yet, even so, it was still incredibly potent.

Because in the Milky Way Realm, and even at the Immortal Gate, other Five Elements cultivation techniques could not be practiced simply by taking spiritual qi into the body.

Chen Mobai carefully read through the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture" and couldn't help but marvel once more, truly a supreme cultivation technique of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court, which once suppressed the Eastern Continent.

After beginning this technique with the Hidden Dragon Pill, the process from the first to the sixth layer represented the "Six Dragon Phases." These were "Hidden Dragon, Do Not Act," "Dragon Appears in the Field," "Flying Dragon in the Sky," "Arrogant Dragon Has Regrets," "Host of Dragons Without a Head," and returning to "Hidden Dragon, Do Not Act."

Once it cycled back to the "Hidden Dragon, Do Not Act" stage, and the dragon vein's spirit was absorbed, this technique would truly achieve mastery, and one could even forge a "Dragon Spiritual Root"!

And this Dragon Spiritual Root, just like a true spiritual root, could not only absorb various Five Elements spiritual qi but also the dragon vein qi beneath the earth.

This dragon vein qi was not limited to human dragon veins; dragon veins from various races and groups all served as energy for the Dragon Spiritual Root's growth.

When the Human Emperor of the Eastern Earth Imperial Court achieved great accomplishment with the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture," he not only commanded the human Dao's dragon veins in the Eastern Continent but also those of the great demon royal courts, and even dragon veins from the depths of the ocean. All were under his singular command.

Only by forging a Dragon Spiritual Root could one truly grasp the essence of the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture."

No wonder, whenever a dragon vein spirit was born in the Eastern Continent, the Moral Sect would send someone to slay the dragon.

Although the version of the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture" that Jiang Zongheng obtained only covered cultivation up to the Nascent Soul realm, its general outline briefly described the state of grand accomplishment.

Forging a Dragon Spiritual Root was equivalent to the Foundation Establishment realm, and afterward, one needed to condense the Emperor's Physique.

The so-called Emperor's Physique was achieved by forging the body with dragon vein qi, creating a physique capable of bearing the essence blood of true dragon-like spirits, preparing for the true profound mystery of this technique: the "Six Dragon Avatars."

The Six Dragon Avatars referred to the six great true dragon-like spirits: Yellow Dragon, Azure Dragon, Vermilion Dragon, White Dragon, Black Dragon, and Jade Dragon.

The ultimate realm of the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture" was to gather the dharma idols of these six great true dragon-like spirits into one, and with the Six Dragon Avatars, govern heaven and earth.

However, even during the Eastern Earth Imperial Court's peak, they dared not provoke all six great true dragon-like spirits simultaneously. Moreover, in the Milky Way Realm, it was impossible to find all six types of these true dragon-like spirits.

The Human Emperor achieved grand accomplishment with his divine technique by taking the essence blood of a Yellow Dragon, Azure Hornless Dragon, Vermilion Snake, White Hornless Dragon, Dark Jiao, and Rainbow Huǐ. However, precisely because of this, his Six Dragon Avatars were not considered complete, and ultimately, during his battle with the Nine-Headed Great Sage, his Six Dragon Avatars were destroyed one by one, and he fought to the death!

If the Human Emperor had been able to obtain the essence blood of the six great true dragon-like spirits instead of substitutes, he might have accomplished an unprecedented feat in the Milky Way Realm, even unifying the Five Continents and Four Seas and becoming the Heavenly Emperor!

After reading the general outline of the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture," Chen Mobai was even more astonished.

At that moment, he also thought of how to perfect the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture" using Immortal Gate methods.

It was simple: by using the Dragon Transformation Scripture created by Old Ancestor Zhongli.

If the Human Emperor had possessed the Dragon Transformation Scripture back then, he could have elevated the bloodlines of the six inferior dragon-like true spirits into true dragon blood.

However, Chen Mobai would certainly not transmit the Dragon Transformation Scripture here, so he merely considered it internally.

But inwardly, he made a note of this matter.

Because the Human Emperor back then was a true Void Refinement cultivator, meaning that the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture," even with the blood of six types of inferior dragon-like true spirits, could allow one to reach Void Refinement.

If it were the essence blood of six true dragons, even if it couldn't lead to Dao Integration, it could at least allow one to achieve grand completion of Void Refinement.

In the Immortal Gate, no one had truly reached the Void Refinement realm yet.

Although Chen Mobai's path was already set, if his Pure Yang Scroll reached its limit in the future and he couldn't achieve Void Refinement, he could still try the Dragon Transformation Scripture.

Furthermore, with the Ascension Sect, there were various Sky-Swallowing Snakes cultivated by the Dragon-Tiger Patriarch. Perhaps with good luck, he could obtain the essence blood of a few true dragons among them.

His conditions, one could even say, were better than those of the Human Emperors throughout the Eastern Earth Imperial Court's history.

The only problem, however, was that one needed a dragon vein spirit to begin cultivating the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture."

The Eastern Barrens was certainly out of the question. Once the Moral Sect's Heavenly and Earthly Xuanji Instrument detected something, their Emissaries would have to personally step in and eradicate the dragon spirit. If they arrived and found the dragon vein spirit gone, the Moral Sect would have reason to suspect Chen Mobai, the ruler of the Eastern Barrens, of embezzlement, having refined the dragon vein spirit himself.

As for the dragon veins in the Immortal Gate, it went without saying that dragon vein qi was already a rare resource. Dragon vein spirits did exist thousands of years ago, but after the Heaven Canopy Earth Net Array was set up, all spiritual qi was controlled, leaving no room for dragon vein spirits to be born.

Chen Mobai was not anxious, however. If there were none in the Eastern Continent, there might be in the other Four Continents and Four Seas of the Milky Way Realm.

Moreover, the Immortal Gate's expansion war was about to begin.

The True Dragon Cauldron of the Wuqi Dao Academy and the Earth Meridian Pills stored by the Jumang Dao Academy were all refined using dragon veins from other worlds. Perhaps there would be similar good fortune during this expansion war.

But even if there wasn't, he didn't mind.

After all, the "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture" Chen Mobai possessed only went up to the Nascent Soul realm. He was interested in this technique because it directly pointed towards Void Refinement.

Its current incomplete state was not enough to truly move him.

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai sighed once more at the closed-off heritage of the Milky Way Realm. Even this last scion of the imperial family could not obtain the complete "Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture"; the Eastern Earth Imperial Court deserved its downfall.

However, it was also possible that Jiang Zongheng's cultivation was shallow, and he didn't search thoroughly.

With this thought, Chen Mobai immediately examined the treasured cauldron and skeleton that Jiang Zongheng had brought.

He first looked at the treasured cauldron, observing that its body was covered with dense inscriptions, seemingly an extremely ancient restriction. He recorded these using his Square Inch Scroll and compared them with various ancient scripts in the Beiyuan City library, but none matched.

Chen Mobai could only set it aside for now, then turned his attention to the skeleton.

"Eh!"

With both his Void-Penetrating Spiritual Eye and Echo of Empty Valley simultaneously activated, he quickly discovered a very peculiar energy remaining within the bones of the skeleton's chest.

Chen Mobai waved his hand and brought the bone into his grasp.

After careful examination, he found that it emitted Fourth-tier fluctuations, which were slowly dissipating.

He immediately used his Square Inch Scroll to deduce the speed of dissipation and found that the Fourth-tier energy fluctuations would completely vanish in about a year.

However, the corpse had certainly existed for more than a year. At its current rate of decay, it should have already completely dissipated.

This meant that, within a year, there had been a Fourth-tier item in the chest area of the skeleton, and its prolonged influence had left behind these energy fluctuations.

"Was there anything else in that cave dwelling?" Chen Mobai asked Jiang Zongheng. The latter hesitated, then shook his head.

"Someone entered that cave dwelling before you and took something from the skeleton's chest."

After Chen Mobai stated his analysis, Jiang Zongheng immediately apologized to him.

"Your disciple is incompetent..."

"Rise. Do you remember the location of that cave dwelling? Let's go take a look."

Jiang Zongheng nodded. Chen Mobai waved his sleeve, and a colorful cloud already carried the master and disciple away from Beiyuan City.

When they arrived, the cave dwelling was already surrounded by disciples from the Five Elements Sect's Formation and Spiritual Meridian Departments, who were in the process of setting up restrictions.

Besides the Five Elements Sect members, there were also many Black Dragon Guards, all wearing white headbands.

"King Zhao has indeed passed away. His eldest legitimate son, Qian, has inherited the throne."

Upon hearing Jiang Zongheng's words, Chen Mobai's expression cleared with understanding.

He then swept the cave dwelling with his vast spiritual sense, confirming that nothing had been overlooked and without disturbing the disciples, before returning to Beiyuan City with Jiang Zongheng.

"Do not place this 'Six Dragons Reigning Heaven Scripture' in the library, nor the pill formula for the Hidden Dragon Pill," Chen Mobai instructed Jiang Zongheng. Although he wished to make knowledge accessible, he knew that these items might invite inquiries from the Sacred Lands.

"Yes, Master. Regarding the Hidden Dragon Pill, Junior Nephew Han and Zhao Gui are aware. I will go and emphasize discretion to them."

Jiang Zongheng nodded in response. He also needed to return to the mortal world to see if there were any abnormalities in the Seeds of Dao Law sown after the succession of the throne.

After sending off his disciple, Chen Mobai's phone suddenly rang with a notification.

He checked his noted tasks and found two matters that needed handling at the Immortal Gate.

One was that the Water Elemental Core-Forming Pill was now available for exchange, and Yan Bingxuan was coming to Wangwu Grotto-Heaven.

The other was the wedding of Ye Yun'e and Jiang Yuyuan.
