Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 709: Chapter 260: Sacrifice (Part 2)

Over the years, Shen Chongxu has always been like this.

The treasures exchanged with his life, he keeps almost none for himself, sending them all back home.

"Chongxu is not good with words, he hasn’t explicitly said it, but he still thinks about the family in his heart."

Shen Wen’an spoke with a gentle smile.

Seeing his father picking up the Jade Scroll inscribed with the Secret Skill of [Demon’s Arrival], Shen Wen’an thought of Shen Chongxu’s instructions.

"Father, the records within this Jade Scroll are considered a Forbidden Skill, extremely dangerous."

"Chongxu also relied on this Secret Skill to turn the entire Jianan Temple upside down."

"Even Hong Ye, the bald donkey of the Great Brightness Realm, was affected. It’s unknown if those few are still fighting now."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan immediately became curious and sent his Divine Sense into the Jade Scroll.

After seeing the content of the [Demon’s Arrival] Secret Skill, his expression instantly became heavy.

"This skill indeed must be used with caution!"

"If misused, it could harm both oneself and others."

The Secret Skill of [Demon’s Arrival] is a method of actively luring the Outer Celestial Demon to temper one’s state of mind and Divine Spirit.

In cultivation, among the three disasters and nine difficulties, the most terrifying one is the Heart Demon.

The Ancient Cultivator who created this [Demon’s Arrival] Secret Skill was definitely insane.

"I’ll keep this Secret Skill close to me."

To prevent ignorant young members of the family from causing trouble, Shen Yuan immediately put the Jade Scroll into his Storage Bag.

He has decided that this [Demon’s Arrival] Secret Skill should be used sparingly if possible.

"By the way, while you were in the Southern Border, it seems there has been some movement among various forces in Yangnao Land."

"Your elder brother is handling it."

Hearing this, Shen Wen’an put down his teacup and said, "Is there anything I can do to help?"

Shen Yuan nodded and said in a deep voice: "It seems a traitor has appeared in Celestial Sandalwood Mountain, leaking information about the existence of Spirit in Zhili Celestial Aromatic Mountain."

"Now both Huangsheng Sect and Jianan Temple have received the news, that Feng Changyou seemed to have come to Yunshui City seeking aid the other day."

"Your elder brother’s response is unknown to me, go and see for yourself."

A traitor in Celestial Sandalwood Mountain?

Shen Wen’an’s face showed a trace of disbelief.

Currently, almost all the Immortal Sect Influence has come to Yangnao Land for the Spirit.

He had only told Feng Changyou about the potential appearance of Spirit in Celestial Aromatic Mountain.

How could a Golden Core Realm Demon King be so careless to let such a major secret be known to other Demon Cultivators?

Or perhaps... the traitor’s status is too high, someone crucial like Old Man Jin?

Shen Wen’an found it hard to understand, so he temporarily pressed the matter in his heart, stood up, and said, "I will go ask my elder brother."

After leaving Black Water Pavilion, Shen Wen’an found Shen Wenxing in the Martial Arts Arena in the rear garden of the manor, teaching Shen Xiuyan and Wu Yuning in cultivation.

"Third Master."

Born with Literary Heart and having a great love for Sword Dao, Shen Xiuyan naturally admires Shen Wen’an profoundly.

Upon seeing him, he excitedly ran over.

Shen Wen’an also liked this little fellow.

Clever and carefree, with a comfortable spirit exuding from top to bottom, he is an excellent candidate to become a Confucian Sword Immortal.

"How is your sword practice recently?"

Gently rubbing Shen Xiuyan’s head, Shen Wen’an squatted and asked.

"There are some parts I don’t understand. Is Third Master here today to help Xiuyan with his questions?"

Shen Wen’an was slightly startled before he smiled and said, "Third Master has some matters to discuss with your Great Master."

"You practice by yourself first, and later Third Master will help you as you wish."

Shen Xiuyan obediently nodded.

"Has Wen’an returned?"

Shen Wenxing walked up and asked, "How is Chongxu?"

He had only learned the day before that Shen Wen’an left home to go to the Southern Border to rescue Shen Chongxu.

"Already fine."

After Shen Wen’an spoke, his gaze noticed Wu Yuning nearby, curiously studying him.

"Wu Jiu and General Fu Feng’s child."

"A mutated Wind Attribute Spirit Root, Chongming accepted her as a disciple." Shen Wenxing introduced.

Shen Wen’an became aware.

"Girl, this is the Golden Core Sword Immortal of our Shen Family, you should call him Third Master Ancestor."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yuning gracefully bowed and saluted, "Yuning greets Third Master Ancestor."

Shen Wen’an nodded with a smile and then asked, "What kind of Magical Artifact do you like?"

This little girl is Chongming’s disciple, it is their first meeting, it’s appropriate to give a gift.

He had just slaughtered quite a few Dissolute Cultivators of Jianan Temple recently, and still hadn’t sorted out many things in his Storage Bag.

It’s possible to see if there is something suitable for Wu Yuning.

"Whatever Third Master Ancestor gives as a gift, Yuning will like it."

The little girl tilted her head thinking for a moment before she suddenly earnestly bowed.

Upon hearing this, Shen Wen’an was slightly startled, while Shen Wenxing beside him burst out laughing.

"Third Master, she’s quite shrewd..."

Shen Xiuyan said from the side.

"Shrewd is not a good trait!"

"Yuning is considerate, not shrewd!"

Their ages similar, Wu Yuning was unafraid of him and immediately retorted.

Shen Xiuyan pouted and muttered: "Not only shrewd, but also stubborn..."

Wu Yuning ignored him, just eagerly watching Shen Wen’an, wanting to see what he would present to her.

Shen Wen’an smiled and selected a Curved Saber Magical Artifact from his Storage Bag and handed it to her.

"This is a Middle Grade Magical Artifact, you can’t yet unleash its full power."

"However, you can start using it."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yuning’s face immediately showed a hint of joy.

Even though she is only five years old, she has been exposed to the path of cultivation for two years.

She understands well the preciousness of a Middle Grade Magical Artifact.

Excitedly receiving the Curved Saber, Wu Yuning toyed with it, seemingly very fond of it.

"Thank you, Third Master Ancestor!"

After respectfully expressing her gratitude to Shen Wen’an, she cherished the Curved Saber and placed it aside, then looked at Shen Wenxing and said: "Master Ancestor will discuss big matters with Third Master Ancestor, Yuning will go back to practice by herself."
