Chapter 838: Chapter 494: Chen Yuan of Qingzhou, Greetings to the Old Heavenly Master! (Part 2)
During the conversation between the two, their group had already approached Wudang Mountain. It must be said that these Immortal Cranes were indeed very fast.
Faster than an ordinary Dan Realm Master.
In less than about a quarter of an hour, they had crossed a great distance and arrived at the foot of Wudang Mountain. Although the previous Prefecture City seemed to be at the foot of the mountain, in reality, there was some distance; it only appeared close visually.
Chen Yuan carefully sensed and felt as if this mountain was enveloped by a grand formation.
Even without approaching closely, he could feel that the surrounding Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy had become much denser. But this was actually very normal, as Wudang Mountain, after all, was known as one of the top ten Immortal Sects.
With profound foundations, this mountain seemed not very high, but in reality, it was an Immortal Mountain Blessed Land.
Based on some information known to Chen Yuan, the strength of Wudang Mountain, at least on the surface, was still very strong, ranking among the top compared to other Immortal Sects.
In just the Yang Transformation Realm, there were seven True Masters in this generation.
Known as the Wudang Seven Sons!
All of them were disciples of that crazy old man.
Seven in the Yang Transformation, definitely not few, as Shushan, known as the first Sword Sect in the world, only had five Sword Immortals on the surface. Of course, this was only about realms and did not mean much.
Primordial Spirit Refining God is Yang Transformation, and Yang God True Monarch also falls under the Yang Transformation category.
“Arrived.”
Zuo Chengzong and his group steered their Immortal Cranes to hover in the void, then each took out different tokens before riding the cranes into the Wudang Mountain’s area.
This made Chen Yuan sigh even more, worthy of being an Immortal Sect!
In his perception, he didn’t feel any danger, but seeing the actions of Zuo Chengzong and the others, there was either a very hidden grand formation or someone specially keeping watch.
However, regardless of which, it was quite extraordinary.
He didn’t bother to ask out of curiosity. Asking would definitely lead to no answers; better to follow obediently.
The five Immortal Cranes in front led Chen Yuan to the mountainside, which was the essence of Wudang Mountain, full of palace buildings everywhere he looked.
On the vast martial practice field, there were hundreds of Wudang disciples in cultivation.
Some practiced swordsmanship, some meditated, some flew in the air, and some controlled talismans.
It seemed as chaotic as a mixed bag, but this was the tradition of Wudang Mountain, never confining disciples to one cultivation path, otherwise, it would be like a Sword Sect or a demonic sect.
They belonged to Taoism!
After leading the way, a few Wudang disciples took their leave, while Zuo Chengzong continued to take Chen Yuan around Wudang Mountain, explaining various places to him.
On the other hand, he also sent someone to the mountaintop to report Chen Yuan’s request to meet the old Heavenly Master.
This was Chen Yuan’s first time visiting an Immortal Sect’s level of a sect, indeed opening his eyes, vastly different from ordinary sects.
In fact, he also knew that within the Imperial City, there was an area for the Royal Family’s experts and tributes to cultivate, but he didn’t have the access, so he didn’t know its mysteries, only heard some from Zhang Yantong.
The enormous Imperial City must have some secrets.
With Zuo Chengzong’s introduction, Chen Yuan generally understood some secrets of Wudang Mountain, such as all the disciples of all generations didn’t exceed a thousand.
Truly refined and excellent.
Every one of them could be said to have good talent.
This place, which gathered talents from a small part of the North, had a high threshold for entry, requiring a clear background and entering the mountain from a young age to cultivate a sense of belonging.
When Chen Yuan first came to this world, choosing the path of the court was also a helpless choice. He was too old; even a top-level sect like the Qingyun Sword Sect wouldn’t accept him.
Of course, he didn’t need that either.
During casual conversation, Zuo Chengzong also inquired about Chen Yuan’s situation since they parted at the East Sea, curious about how he grew. To this, Chen Yuan could only respond with half-truths.
Since his words seemed very familiar, Zuo Chengzong didn’t suspect anything, even expressing admiration for Chen Yuan, saying he was free and able to roam the Jianghu.
Also, for smashing the methods of the Japanese minions for the Central Plains Martial Artists, he was a model for their generation.
In response to Zuo Chengzong’s praise, Chen Yuan only smiled and modestly said a few words.
Then Chen Yuan turned the topic to when he killed Tang Sect’s Sect Leader Tang Xianzhuo in Shuzhou, and Zuo Chengzong’s boasting for him caused quite a bit of trouble, leading to numerous pursuers.
Leaving Zuo Chengzong feeling somewhat guilty, repeatedly apologizing, saying he only intended to give Chen Yuan some fame at that time, never expecting to unwittingly cause trouble.
This fueled some of Chen Yuan’s enemies with even more murderous intent towards him.
After a long casual talk, both felt quite amused, agreeing to find a quiet place for some in-depth discussion after Chen Yuan met the old Heavenly Master.
Just as they agreed, a streak of light descended from the mountaintop, heading straight for Zuo Chengzong. He reached out to catch it, revealing a broken bamboo slip.
There were only four words on it:
“Bring him up.”
After confirming there were no issues, Zuo Chengzong put away the bamboo slip, smiled at Chen Yuan, and said:
“Chen, the Ancestor has agreed to meet you, come with me.”
“Alright.”
Chen Yuan nodded without hesitation.
Zuo Chengzong took Chen Yuan and flew straight to the mountaintop. At first, Chen Yuan was curious as to why the old Heavenly Master’s residence was not heavily guarded.
But he quickly realized.
The old Heavenly Master was no ordinary person, but the mad old man who once wielded the True Martial Sword to destroy a top sect guarded by a True Monarch.
