Shennong Sequence

"I've heard that there's a Dao Inquiry Pavilion over at the Heavenly Dao Palace and the Inheritance Mountain!"

Just as Zhao Yun fell into deep thought again, Xin Ruyin suddenly spoke up and gave a suggestion: "There you can ask many questions about cultivation, and the explanations are the most authoritative, and they will not reveal the inquirer's information."

"How about we go to the Inheritance Mountain and ask at the Inquiry Pavilion?"

After hearing this, Zhao Yun was somewhat tempted.

However, he was still unsure whether he could truly find the answer to his Dao, which was based on magic, from the Dao Seeking Pavilion.

Furthermore, he was also aware that, regarding each Great Dao Foundation Establishment, apart from those who ascended from the Human Dao, Earth Dao, and Heaven Dao, and had clear guidance for their future and relatively simple foundations, there were others...
The rest of the Great Dao Foundation Establishment stages are cultivation paths that cultivators forge themselves on their own.

It is highly personal and distinctive; the path ahead can only be referenced and learned from, but it can never be replicated.

After all, everyone's foundation and understanding will be completely different due to even the slightest difference!
Therefore, if one wants to find direction, one can only ask those senior cultivators with higher cultivation levels, or search for relevant records about the "condensation of extraordinary phenomena of the Great Dao".

Through the most direct description of the origin, we can explore the direction of the manifestation of the extraordinary phenomenon of "taking the Dharma that we have realized as the foundation of the Great Way".

Just as the two were discussing, a whooshing sound came from afar—

The three Taibai Pavilion supervisory cultivators arrived slowly, emerging from the flying rainbow.

His gaze swept over the signs of a fight in the surrounding mountains and forests, his brows furrowing slightly.
He then raised his hand and waved it, sending out a spell that captured the ruined landscape and lingering Daoist energy of the surrounding mountains into a luminous white jade slip.

At the same time, array patterns suddenly appeared in the surrounding world, shimmering with a faint golden light, completely replaying the previous scene!

In the blink of an eye, the many reasons for the conflict were clarified—including who started the dispute and what laws both sides used.

Zhao Yun also stepped forward and glanced at the scene of the previous battle, which was replicated by the mountain and river formation.

In the scene, Gao Huan's figure and face are always shrouded in a peculiar white light.

Moreover, the white light seemed to have the effect of obscuring the secrets of heaven, making it impossible to see his specific figure, height, weight, magical power, soul light form, and even his aura was blurred.

Only then did Zhao Yun fully understand... why Gao Huan dared to defy the sect's "no private duels" rule and come looking for trouble with him.
It turns out he had a backup plan, using special methods to conceal his identity, so even if the formation replicated the scene, no clear evidence would be left.

However, these cultivators from Taibai Pavilion, seeing that the fight was not initiated by Zhao Yun,

His attitude became somewhat more polite, but he asked in a deep voice:

"Who is your opponent?"

Zhao Yun did not hide anything and truthfully stated the name "Gao Huan," adding that "he is Gao Huan of the Gao family," thus clarifying his identity.

As soon as he finished speaking, the leading Taibai Pavilion cultivator raised his hand and summoned a flying goose, which carried Zhao Yun and Xin Ruyin straight to the Gao family residence in the second immortal city!

Upon arriving outside the Gao family residence, the Taibai Pavilion cultivators showed absolutely no mercy.
Even knowing that there are elders at the Great Dao Golden Core or even Great Dao Nascent Soul realm in the house, they don't give them any face at all!

He brandished the Taibai Pavilion law enforcement token and led Zhao Yun and Xin Ruyin straight in. The law enforcement authority emanating from him prevented the Gao family cultivators along the way from obstructing him in the slightest.

Only now did Zhao Yun truly gain a clearer understanding of the authority of the sect's law enforcement!
Faced with these ironclad rules of the sect, even a family with a deep foundation cannot easily resist... Upon entering the main hall of the Gao family, the Taibai Pavilion's law enforcement cultivator's gaze swept over everyone in the hall, and he asked in a deep voice:

Where is Gao Huan?
And does he admit to instigating a battle in the mountains outside the city and engaging in combat with Zhao Yun?

"My lord, it was I who fought with Zhao Yun earlier!"

Gao Huan was nowhere to be found, but another member of the Gao family appeared and took his place!

This surprised Zhao Yun!

As for being angry?

There definitely is!

Good heavens, they just finished fighting and already found someone to take the blame?
This is not a temporary measure; it is clearly a premeditated plan!
However, the Gao family ultimately lost more than they gained by trying to steal a chicken!

Zhao Yun guessed that the Gao family wasn't really looking for trouble with him because of that 'innate jade stone'.
Their original plan was to have Gao Huan, with his Foundation Establishment cultivation, suppress them and plunder their fortune through combat.

It even wanted to devour the foundation of its own Great Dao Foundation!
Unexpectedly, he managed to withstand Gao Huan's Great Dao technique using the End-of-Day Worm.

He also learned the true meaning of "the collapse of the Dao" from the "method of material transformation" during this battle!

Now, with his left hand, he can draw upon the power of the end times to imprison all extraordinary Daoist principles;
His right hand can unleash the power of the Dao Collapse, disintegrating all material attacks!
Both the supernatural and the material have the power to restrain each other; by using both methods together, combat power will increase by more than one level.
Therefore, the gains from this battle far exceeded those from Zhao Yun's months of secluded training, and it was also the fastest process of his strength improvement in recent years!

However, Zhao Yun had no intention of letting the Gao family get away with it so easily.

He turned to look at the Taibai Pavilion law enforcement cultivator beside him, his tone serious and his words clear:
"I can tell you all clearly that the person who just fought me, caused me trouble, and even tried to take my life was no nobody."
It's Gao Huan from the Gao family!

"Young friend, you can't just say things like that!"

A slightly gruff voice rang out, and a member of the Gao family, dressed in a brocade robe, stepped forward, a fake smile plastered on his face.
"My Gao Huan has been behaving himself in the mansion all day and has not stepped out of the house even once!"

Besides, you keep claiming to have seen my Gao Huan, so why don't you show us what you saw? We can compare them on the spot and avoid misjudging the truth.

Zhao Yun stared intently at the Gao family member who was speaking, taking in the fleeting calculation in his eyes.
Although the Gao family members smiled broadly, they couldn't hide the cunning in their eyes!
This made Zhao Yun feel like he had fallen into a trap!
They must have calculated that they had no video evidence and wanted to use that to turn the tables and accuse them of slander.
Zhao Yun pondered for a moment, his mind racing—

The scenes Gao Huan had shown earlier were completely identical to the figure he had just fought.

To ensure his safety, he even circulated the true energy within the Yellow Sprout Seed to cleanse his soul.

I have thoroughly confirmed that my memory is completely accurate and there is absolutely no possibility of mistaking someone.

Immediately, he raised his hand and a beam of magical light flew out from his fingertip, solidified in the air, and transformed into a clear light and shadow—it was Gao Huan's appearance, and even the Dao Foundation Establishment Dao aura emanating from his body was perfectly replicated!

"Oh? Young friend, are you sure it was this person who fought you earlier?"

The lead Taibai Pavilion enforcer's gaze fell on the light and shadow, then he looked at Zhao Yun and confirmed in a deep voice. (End of Chapter)
