Chapter 933: Chapter 347: Eight Layer Heavens Fourth Level, Divine Court Superior Vista (Double-Length Chapter)_4
After the battle, when Tang Xiaotang contacted Lei Jun, he marveled:
"Huang Xuanpu left some things in the hand of that whale. They found a hidden cave of Huang Xuanpu, and I took a general look. The place where Huang Xuanpu previously secluded himself to achieve the Perfection of the Nine Heavens of the Alchemy Cauldron Sect and the state of Five Qi Towards Primordial should be here."
Lei Jun: "Oh? Such a place is worth a thorough search."
Huang Xuanpu achieved Perfection and only came out of seclusion after reaching the state of Five Qi Towards Primordial.
Normally, he would have enough time and energy to clear various items or residual mana traces from the cave.
But even so, if it falls into the hands of someone interested, useful clues can still be discovered.
Huang Xuanpu himself has passed away, but the intricate connections between him and Penglai, as well as other potential Taoist Nations in the mortal world, hold great interest for Lei Jun and others.
Tang Xiaotang: "You and Senior Sister should come; I need to continue catching that stray dog."
Xu Yuanzhen, who previously discovered some findings overseas regarding Penglai and the Great Ming Mortal Realm, headed to the Northern Frontier upon hearing the news.
"Not bad, Xiaotang found a good place this time." Xu Yuanzhen praised.
Lei Jun: "My junior sister this time didn’t rely on luck; she has pondered her new Divine Skills and seems to have some leads."
Though Li Yan escaped in the Earth Sea, Master Tang’s search and detection skills are evidently much improved compared to before.
This time, during the search across the Northern Frontier lands for the Long Sky Gray Wolf, he successfully found the traces left by the target.
That great demon, apart from being fierce, is also an expert in sensing and hiding.
Even though he and the Northern Sea Whale King were busy excavating Huang Xuanpu’s cave, Tang Xiaotang being able to find them wasn’t entirely due to luck.
Now, the hidden lair of Long Sky Gray Wolf itself was again uncovered by Tang Xiaotang.
Without the Northern Sea Whale King there to assist, the Long Sky Gray Wolf, one of the leader demons of the Northern Lands, was beaten half to death by Tang Xiaotang.
Relying on his cunning and cautious nature, along with exceptional feigned death techniques, he barely escaped alive using the ploy of feigned death rebirth.
Tang Xiaotang naturally wouldn’t give up and continued to pursue relentlessly.
However, it was clear Lei Jun underestimated Tang Xiaotang.
This time, she not only improved her search skills but also had good luck.
In the lair of Long Sky Gray Wolf, she discovered a rare Yin Soul, slowly developing within the wolf’s den.
Looking at its appearance, it’s the Long Sky Gray Wolf who discovered a peculiar situation at this location, used it as a foundation to create the lair, and nurtured the developing Yin Soul, waiting for it to mature.
But now, it’s fortunate for Master Tang.
This Yin Soul, similar to the Sun Jade Seal years ago, is one of the key opportunities that could help her achieve the Tai Chu Dao Body.
"Congratulations, junior sister." Lei Jun praised.
Given his understanding of Tang Xiaotang, she was likely caught in the blissful dilemma.
There’s a chance to acquire the previously sought-after Yin Soul, but she would have to let the Long Sky Gray Wolf go.
"Junior Sister can go after that demon wolf, and I’ll collect the Yin Soul for you."
Lei Jun said: "This summer solstice, Pure Yang Palace will host the Sect Leader’s Inheritance Ceremony, inviting our sect as guests to observe. I’ll conveniently take a trip there, heading to your side first."
After making a round at Huang Xuanpu’s cave, Xu Yuanzhen returned to the Altar of Wanfa Sect to seclude himself and refine the gained Talisman Decree.
At present, Yuan Mobai was nurturing the Vermilion Spirit Barren Bone.
With nothing pressing, Lei Jun decided to go for a walk.
Experiencing various Taoist techniques and viewing the world’s mountains and rivers has always been Lei Jun’s personal joy. Now that his cultivation is gradually achieving results, he has no reservations and won’t change for managing the Celestial Master Mansion.
Of course, he leaves feeling assured.
Zhang Jingzhen, Chu Kun, and Lin Shan have successively stepped up to become High Merit Elders, handling daily affairs without issues.
Xu Yuanzhen, Yuan Mobai, and Wang Guiyuan are all on Dragon Tiger Mountain, so there’s no concern about the Ancestral Court of the Sect being empty.
Tang Xiaotang: "Although I appreciate your help, seeing you so free makes me reflect on when I first assumed the role of Celestial Master, being unable to leave the mountain, and it’s a bittersweet feeling."
Lei Jun calmly replied: "It shows that, as a Celestial Master, junior sister, you are more important to our sect."
After a few jokes, he told other High Merit Elders and Elders in the mansion that he’d personally go out to the Northwest to Pure Yang Palace as a guest and inform Pure Yang Palace.
The current Celestial Master of Mount Longhu personally going out to head north to the Pure Yang Palace on Zhongnan Mountain is always a major event that draws widespread attention.
Upon hearing of Mount Longhu’s Thunder Celestial Master personally coming to Zhongnan Mountain for the ceremony, Pure Yang Palace welcomed him while immediately becoming busy.
Lei Jun, on this outing, only carried the Celestial Master Seal, leaving the Celestial Master’s Sword and Robe temporarily on the mountain.
Thus, the sect’s confidence is bolstered.
Suppose Lei Jun needs it, Yuan Mobai and others at the sect can temporarily transmit the Celestial Master’s Sword and Robe to him outside the mountain via the Altar of Wanfa Sect, who carries the Celestial Master Seal.
The authority of the Altar of Wanfa Sect is temporarily left to his master, Yuan Mobai.
He left in advance for a few days, heading to the Northern Frontier to find the wolf den that Tang Xiaotang referred to.
Sure enough, there was the developing Yin Soul, nearing maturity.
Lei Jun waited for a while, warming and nurturing the spiritual objects with his mana, while purging the demonic Evil Aura caused by the Long Sky Gray Wolf surrounding the spiritual objects.
He circulated his mana, aligning yin and yang harmony, shifting to predominately yin, nurturing the Yin Soul more effectively than the Long Sky Gray Wolf.
Once the Yin Soul matured, Lei Jun collected it on behalf of Tang Xiaotang.
"Junior Sister desires to achieve the Taoist Body Root Bone, and she’s probably not far from success. The ultimate outcome, though, remains to be seen."
Lei Jun left the Northern Lands, turning towards the southwest, traveling through the border regions, heading to the Pure Yang Palace on Zhongnan Mountain.
