Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 640 Yuanqing Sect

Zhongzhou is very big.

If asked how big it is, Chen Mu might think for a moment before answering, "As big as the four continents of the Northern Plains, Southern Xinjiang, East China Sea, and Western Desert combined..."

And in such a vast territory, there are twenty-seven top forces.

Nineteen sects and eight great families...

Among them, the only one Chen Mu had ever had contact with was the Black and White Dao Palace.

The most recent time was at the Langya Banquet hosted by Dragon Girl Ao Yi, where he met Jiang Zhengchu, a disciple of the Black and White Taoist Palace at that time.

He also has another identity, that is, a descendant of the Runan Jiang family, one of the eight great families.

One person has the origins of two lineages, so one can imagine how noble he is.

Unfortunately, because of the Ao Yi incident, he had a very bad impression of Chen Mu and even had the intention to kill him, so he sent two junior brothers to hunt down Chen Mu.

And Chen Mu wasn't a magnanimous person, so how could he forget the danger he'd experienced back then? So even if they'd met once before, they wouldn't have stood together...

"Pity……"

On the floating heavenly palace, Chen Mu suddenly muttered something, paused for a moment, and then took out something with his backhand.

It was a round black and white token, with the two colors flowing faintly, forming a Tai Chi pattern.

Looking down at the token in his hand, Chen Mu's expression was filled with memories.

The origin of this token can be traced back to the time of Zhao State.

At that time, he was still a young cultivator in the Qi Condensation Realm. During a demonic attack, he met an old Taoist from Central China named Zi Yang.

Not only did he receive a copy of the martial arts technique as a gift, he also received this black and white token, which said that in the future, when he travels to Central Continent, he can use this token to travel freely.

Although Taoist Zi Yang did not reveal the name of the mountain sect, based on the black and white colors and such a confident tone, it is not difficult to guess that he must be a person from the Black and White Taoist Palace.

After this relationship, Chen Mu had originally thought about visiting the Black and White Dao Palace, but because of Jiang Zhengchu's incident, he could only temporarily give up this idea...

"Black and white Taoist talismans? Boy Chen, how could you have such an item?"

Suddenly, Taoist Tianxing came over, shouted, pointed at the token and asked curiously.

Hearing the commotion, Sun Zhiyan and the other two also came over, but True Lord Pingyang did not show up.

Chen Mu smiled slightly, without hiding anything, and told the three people about his early years.

Sun Zhiyan nodded repeatedly and sighed, "I didn't expect that fellow Daoist Lingyuan would have such an opportunity..."

After he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "If I can use this opportunity to talk to the Black and White Dao Palace, it might be helpful to our plans."

Upon hearing this, Taoist Tian Xing curled his lips and said, "The matter of offering incense is of great importance. How can a Jindan Zhenren from the past have the final say?"

Sun Zhiyan paused, nodded, and said, "That's right, I was too obsessed and too eager..."

At this time, Taoist Xuancheng frowned and muttered, "Not necessarily. The last time I came here, I seemed to have heard that there was a Yuanying cultivator named Ziyang in the Black and White Taoist Palace..."

"Oh?"

This time, Chen Mu and the other two's expressions changed slightly. After looking at each other, they slowly said, "So, there is indeed room for improvement..."

The four of them said no more, but their eyes flickered and they fell into deep thought.

Their journey was destined to be difficult, so they had to seize every opportunity to try to get more Central Continent forces to agree to the incense burning.

And this black and white Taoist talisman might be the clue to persuade the Black and White Taoist Palace... However, these will naturally have to wait until the sword fighting event is held. Their top priority right now is to go to the Yuanqing Sect, one of the nineteen sects.

Chen Mu had heard of the Yuanqing School a long time ago. It was said that this school had been established in Zhongzhou for nearly 20,000 years and had once been the most powerful and influential school in the world.

Even though it is a little weak now, it can still be ranked among the top five among the twenty-seven forces.

The reason they went there was because Xuantian Mansion had a close relationship with this sect. It could be traced back to the time when the founder of Xuantian Mansion had sought Taoism under the Yuanqing Sect.

Because of this relationship, the Yuanqing Sect is currently the only major sect in Central China that supports Beiyuan Jingxiang...

The clouds roll and the wind blows.

The speed of the Floating Heavenly Palace was astonishing, and it only took a few days to travel a distance of billions of miles.

One day, Pingyang Zhenjun suddenly appeared, nodded and smiled, saying: "Yuanqing Sect, we have arrived..."

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he immediately stood up and stood on the Heavenly Palace, looking down.

I saw peaks and valleys connected in the middle of the continent, the mountains were connected, the earth's energy was prosperous, and in the far north there was a winding ridge stretching away, disappearing into the sky, with no end in sight, like an angry python swimming and rolling under the earth's veins.

The area near the south is also full of beautiful scenery. Deep valleys are shrouded in mist, and the trees are lush and green. The scenery is clear and ancient. There are thousands of waterfalls and streams in between, and the turbulent waters are roaring and rushing very fast.

As the distance gets closer, you can see the Yuanqing School's mountain gate towering into the clouds. In front of it is a towering stone tablet engraved with mysterious patterns, exuding an ancient aura.

Taoist Tian Xing secretly clicked his tongue when he saw this, and muttered softly, "Let's not talk about how it looks, just looking at the spiritual energy here, it's probably supplied by a fifth-level spiritual vein..."

When they arrived, because they did not hide their presence, clouds and smoke flew out from the mountains, reached a high place and then fell down, like water pouring down, spreading before their eyes.

A forty-year-old Taoist priest stood on it. He had a straight and elegant appearance, a wisp of beard fluttering in the wind. After taking a look at the Fuyou Heavenly Palace, he bowed and said, "Excuse me, which sect are you from?"

True Lord Pingyang smiled calmly, waved his sleeves to retract the Floating Heavenly Palace, and said with a smile: "Yunhua, it has been years since we last met. Do you not recognize me?"

Taoist Yunhua's face lit up with joy, and he bowed again, "So it's Master Pingyang. I'm so ashamed..."

Pingyang Zhenjun shook his head and smiled, waved his hand to stop his movements, and asked, "Where is Brother Chongtai?"

Taoist Yunhua quickly replied, "Master is inside the mountain gate, discussing a sword fight with several seniors from Chunyangtian, Lianhuamen, and others."

"Oh?"

Master Pingyang raised one eyebrow slightly and smiled, "It seems I've arrived at the perfect time..."

"My fellow Taoists, please follow me into the mountains."

At this time, Taoist Yunhua also nodded to Chen Mu and the others. He had met Taoist Sun Zhiyan and Taoist Xuancheng before, but Chen Mu and the others were strangers. So he specifically asked, "Who are these two Taoist friends?"

Sun Zhiyan introduced them with a smile: "They are Daoists Tianxing and Lingyuan from Fushan Changhe, one of the three major sects in Beiyuan."

"So you're the Daoist friend from Fushan Changhe. Yunhua is honored..."

Taoist Yunhua bowed his head, with an inexplicable glint in his eyes, from which he had already guessed the purpose of their visit.

"Please come in quickly."

After entering the mountain gate, Zhenjun Chongtai sensed something and came out of the temple to greet them. Zhenjun Pingyang was not too polite and followed him into the temple with a smile to discuss matters.

Chen Mu and the others, under the guidance of Taoist Yunhua, sat down in the reception cave of the Yuanqing Sect, waiting for the next instructions from True Lord Pingyang.

This trip to Zhongzhou is different from the last one. If we want to participate in the incense-burning dispute safely, we need to negotiate with the True Lord Pingyang and the various Divine Transformation cultivators...
