Chapter 1645: Chapter 151: Bishui Sword Sect!
The speed of escape was tens of times faster than their arrival here.
It was simply at a pace that could make one spit blood in a frenzy!
A dozen Saint-level experts fled so awkwardly, it must be said, this scene was too strange.
But only Zhou Yan knew the true reason behind all of this.
These Saint Masters were truly terrified.
Saint-level experts aren’t afraid of death, but in this world, death is not the most frightening; the most terrifying is wanting to die but unable to, and seeking life but failing.
If it truly was an Ancestor-level Old Monster, let alone a Saint Master, even a million Saint Masters wouldn’t be worth mentioning.
Those Saint Masters couldn’t determine Zhou Yan’s identity but had elevated him to the level comparable to an Ancestor-level Old Monster. That they weren’t scared witless is quite remarkable, especially after having been brutally killed once, and then almost having their soul shattered by a single Soul Energy attack from Zhou Yan. This life-and-death fright would likely stay with them for a lifetime.
Therefore, given the chance to leave, who would dare to linger longer in front of Zhou Yan?
These Saint Masters immediately fled in utmost panic.
Meanwhile, Zhou Yan casually returned to his Secondary Main Peak.
As for the Heavenly Mechanism Sect Master, Elder Zhou, and the Fifth Elder, Zhou Yan paid no attention to them, they wouldn’t face any danger.
Afterward, Zhou Yan directly entered the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s Book Collection Pavilion to personally select some ancient books to read.
The heavily guarded Book Collection Pavilion seemed completely open to Zhou Yan; there was no obstruction when he entered, nor was there any greeting.
The guarding disciples merely bowed slightly without saying anything, allowing Zhou Yan to enter.
For these actions, Zhou Yan didn’t mind them.
Heavenly Mechanism Skill, he had almost completely analyzed and deduced it now. What Zhuge Xiye taught were essentially the essence of Zhuge Xiye’s cultivation summary and experience.
As for the simpler parts and slight doubts, Zhou Yan could deduce and analyze them himself. Now, with the aid of some information from the Book Collection Pavilion, he had completely figured out the Heavenly Mechanism Skill.
At this point, Zhou Yan also knew the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was of little value to him.
To progress further, he would need to find other ways.
The Heavenly Mechanism Sect had now stabilized, and now even if the other Holy Lands were given ten times the courage, they wouldn’t dare to invade again.
And even if they did invade again, the Sect Protection Array combined with the True Void Domain of the Thirty-Three Heavens Road would be enough to kill them.
Zhou Yan was no longer worried; he had basically done everything possible for the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.
Therefore, it was time to leave the Heavenly Mechanism Sect.
Previously, Zhou Yan had promised Zhao Xuexun he met in the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sword Tomb that he would visit the Bishui Sword Sect in the future.
Although not much time has passed now, the matters concerning the Heavenly Mechanism Sect have been resolved, and he helped it rise again; Zhou Yan didn’t plan to manage any further affairs.
Having made such a decision, Zhou Yan now wanted to review ancient books one last time, perfecting the Heavenly Mechanism Skill and simultaneously gaining some understanding about Ancestor-related information.
However, even though Zhou Yan searched through many ancient books, the information he knew was very sparse and scarce.
Ultimately, Zhou Yan could only reluctantly give up.
The day passed so quickly in this manner.
Spending more than half a day, Zhou Yan memorized almost all the ancient books in the Book Collection Pavilion. His understanding and comprehending of the Heavenly Mechanism Skill had completely surpassed Zhuge Xiye.
During the subsequent time, Zhou Yan was repeatedly deducing the Heavenly Mechanism Skill, but now the Tao he deduced was something Zhuge Xiye could not understand at all.
...
"Zhou Yan, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect is like this now, all because of you. But you’ve contributed so much to the sect without receiving any benefits, and you are leaving already? Why not stay a bit longer? Then, if you have any uncertainties, I will personally explore them with you."
Zhuge Qiyan sincerely urged him to stay this time.
"Sect Master, since I accepted the identity of Heavenly Mechanism Saint Son, this identity will exist, so I am not leaving the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, but merely going out for a walk, there’s no need to worry."
Zhou Yan replied.
"But--"
Zhuge Qiyan knew that was the case but still hesitated greatly.
"Sect Master, you have experienced the wonder of the Heavenly Mechanism Thirty-Three Heavens Road, and the splendor and strength of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s grand hall. The Heavenly Mechanism Sect is no longer the sect it once was; shortly after you resonate with the Yellow Bell, you will understand."
"As for the position of Sect Master, you alone are suitable for it."
Zhou Yan spoke earnestly, as if fully aware of Zhuge Qiyan’s unspoken words.
Seeing Zhou Yan speak like this, Zhuge Qiyan could only bitterly smile and sigh without continuing further on this topic.
"Then, let Xi Ye accompany you?"
Zhuge Qiyan suggested.
Zhou Yan shook his head and said, "No need."
...
After settling Zhou Yunchuan, Zhou Yan left the Heavenly Mechanism Sect alone.
When entering the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, Zhou Yan had no realm, and now he was a Sixth Level Soul Condensation Realm cultivator.
After the Ninth Level of Soul Condensation, comes the Void Soul Realm.
This time in cultivation, Zhou Yan was not in a hurry, maintaining a casual mindset.
