"Senior brother, have you obtained anything within?"
On the flying boat, Lin Qingxuan came beside Chen Changâan, curiously inquiring.
Lin Qingxuan was merely curious, because she knew that Chen Changâan had at least passed through the top three floors.
The Heavenly Emperor Pavilion had ten floors, each brimming with generous rewards. Even without the final prize, one would receive benefits beyond measure.
Just like her, in her previous life, she had only ventured to the middle three floors, but the rewards she acquired had her triumphant for a long time, darting through the Star Sea!
"I obtained some Dao rules and techniques, all quite useful and highly beneficial for my cultivation." Chen Changâan revealed.
What he said was not entirely deceiving. After all, aside from the exclusive token, the only things he received from the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion were exactly these.
Of course, the resources he had previously plundered from within the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion were not counted.
"Oh, thatâs quite good."
At Chen Changâanâs words, Lin Qingxuan nodded somewhat understandingly.
What Chen Changâan said was correct; reaching the top three levels of the Heavenly Emperor Pavilion and obtaining some items would make complete sense.
With that in mind, Lin Qingxuan didnât pursue the topic further. Everyone had their own secrets, and it would be inappropriate for her to pry, despite her curiosity.
After exchanging some words, they each returned to their rooms, allowing the flying boat to automatically return to the Taiyi Sect.
....
About half a day later, Chen Changâan and his companion returned to the Taiyi Sect.
At that moment, the Taiyi Sectâs square was already occupied by the Heavenly Monarch and Li Xiangtian, who were waiting for them.
"Changâan, youâve had a tough journey."
Seeing Chen Changâan descend, the Heavenly Monarch immediately stepped forward to console him.
Chen Changâan repeatedly waved his hand:
"Youâre too kind, I am also a member of the sect. This journey was merely a way for me to contribute to our sect. You should not treat me with such seriousness."
"Very well, Changâan, letâs go to the hall to discuss." Although the Heavenly Monarch kept his thoughts to himself, he felt a sense of relief in his heart upon hearing Chen Changâanâs words.
Afterwards, he led Chen Changâan and Lin Qingxuan into the great hall.
"Honorable ancestor, as per your expectations, we have retrieved the ancient scriptures that our sect lost long ago. I present it to you now."
Upon entering the great hall, Lin Qingxuan stepped forward, revealing a ball of light to the Heavenly Monarch.
"Qingxuan, youâve found the Heavenly Scripture?!"
Hearing Lin Qingxuanâs words, the calm face of the Heavenly Monarch suddenly brimmed with excitement.
He swiftly approached, seizing the ball of light that Lin Qingxuan held out.
Upon touching it, he felt a sheepskin scroll.
Almost immediately, the Heavenly Monarch unfurled the scroll and began to read.
"Hahaha, itâs indeed the Heavenly Scripture, it truly is!"
No sooner had he begun to read than the Heavenly Monarch grew more and more excited. In the end, he let out three shouts of delight:
"Good! Great! Excellent!"
After a while, the Heavenly Monarch calmed down slightly.
He looked at Lin Qingxuan, a gentle smile on his face:
"Qingxuan, youâve worked hard."
"Honorable ancestor, I did not find it troublesome at all. Being able to retrieve the sectâs treasure is something I have always aspired to do. You shouldnât be concerned about me." Naturally, Lin Qingxuan would not accept the Heavenly Monarchâs words of consolation.
Even though in her past life she held an esteemed position, ruling over a vast space in the Wuxiang realm, she couldnât afford to put on airs in front of this old man.
In her past life, when the Taiyi Sect was facing great difficulties, when survival seemed uncertain, if it hadnât been for this seemingly ordinary old man who sacrificed his life at the critical moment, where would they be?
Would there have been a Qingxuan the Immortal Monarch reigning supreme over a vast space, admired for her striking talents?
There wouldnât have been any!
"Ancestor, may I ask, what exactly is this Heavenly Scripture?" At this moment, a voice echoed in the hall. It was none other than Chen Changâan.
At present, his face bore a slight hint of confusion. This perplexity was directed at the purported Heavenly Scripture referred to by the Heavenly Monarch.
Not that Chen Changâan was unwise, he genuinely hadnât heard of anything named the Heavenly Scripture.
"Changâan, what you donât know is that âHeavenly Scriptureâ is just a short title. Its full name is âZiyang Heavenly Scriptureâ." Hearing Chen Changâanâs words, the Heavenly Monarch explained with a hearty laugh.
However, his explanation ended there. Not because he didnât want to say more, but because he believed that just mentioning âZiyang Heavenly Scriptureâ was enough.
Just by the name âZiyang Heavenly Scriptureâ, Chen Changâan would definitely understand!
"Ziyang Heavenly Scripture?!"
Sure enough, upon hearing âZiyang Heavenly Scriptureâ, the expression on Chen Changâanâs face changed immediately.
No longer confused, but understanding.
If it were just âHeavenly Scriptureâ, then indeed, Chen Changâan wouldnât know. But if you say âZiyang Heavenly Scriptureâ, he could not possibly remain ignorant.
During the time when Taiyi Immortal Sect was prominent, their core cultivation technique was Ziyang Immortal Scripture. It was one of the top ten ancient Immortal cultivation techniques of that era, incredibly powerful.
With the Ziyang Immortal Scripture, the Taiyi Immortal Sect firmly held the leading position among the Dao Paths of all heavens, unmatched by anyone.
Unfortunately, as the Taiyi Immortal Sect met with disaster and collapsed, the Ziyang Immortal Scripture desolate.
Although the Tianshui Sect and the Taiyi Sect are both successors of the Taiyi Immortal Sect, neither possesses the entirety of the Ziyang Immortal Scripture. Whether itâs Tianshui Sectâs Ziyang Heart Scripture or Taiyi Sectâs Ziyang Scripture, they were merely abridged versions.
