Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

”In the future battles in the Cangmin Sea Region, I will need to rely heavily on the Shen Family.”

Meeting his gaze, Shen Wen’an’s heart stirred slightly, then he slightly cupped his hands and said, ”I will relay the senior’s words to my father.”

”Thank you, senior, for clarifying things today.”

”If you have no other matters, I will take my leave.”

Xu Xiu nodded: ”Go back, you’ve been trapped in the valley for a long time; you should go back and have a look.”

He waved his hand gently, sending Shen Wen’an out of the valley, then Xu Xiu looked at the sky and fell into contemplation.

”Sir, the person in the valley has reincarnated twenty-four times already. Should we proceed with the harvesting?”

Feng Jingyang spoke up, interrupting his thoughts.

Xu Xiu returned to his senses, shook his head slightly with a smile, and said, ”No rush.”

”The memories I implanted in him years ago will become more genuine with each reincarnation.”

”He probably already fully believes that as long as he gathers his Dharma Bone and re-condenses his Dharma Body, he can return to the Celestial Dragon Temple.”

”Let him take his time; it won’t be too late to harvest once he’s absorbed all the Dao Source in the Celestial Dragon Temple Secret Realm.”

”Keep a close eye on matters within the valley.”

”In the next few decades, I do not wish for any unexpected events.”

After Xu Xiu finished speaking, he waved his hand to open a spatial rift and walked in slowly.

...

Outside Dragon-slaying Valley, amidst the vast desert.

Huang Lingshan and others, who had been sent out early, waited in the desert for a long time, finally seeing Shen Wen’an emerge from the void.

”Third Uncle, who was that old man?”

Huang Lingshan and the others looked at him curiously.

Facing their gaze, Shen Wen’an pondered slightly before answering, ”He is the Great Prosperity True Monarch.”

”What!?”

”Great Prosperity True Monarch!?”

Upon hearing the answer, everyone was astonished.

”Alright, this is not the place to talk; we’ve just managed to get out of Dragon-slaying Valley, let’s head back to Yunshui City first.”

Shen Wen’an spoke with a mild smile and casually waved, directly taking out the Void Treasure Ship from his Storage Bag.

The group flashed aboard the treasure ship, and Shen Wen’an then maneuvered the ship toward Yunshui City.

...

Inside the old house’s annex room, Shen Wen’an briefly introduced Xu Xiu’s identity. As for the specifics of the conversation, he only mentioned that he would go to the Dragon Coiling Mountain’s other courtyard in a couple of days to discuss it in more detail with Huang Lingshan and others.

After seeing off the people from the Cyan Ruo Sword House, Shen Wen’an went straight to the Black Water Pavilion.

On the second floor, father and son sat cross-legged in front of the desk.

”Father, I met Xu Xiu this time in Dragon-slaying Valley.”

Shen Wen’an took a sip of tea and started speaking directly.

Shen Yuan was slightly startled upon hearing this, clearly surprised: ”What did he say to you?”

Shen Wen’an cupped his hands and recounted word-for-word the conversation between him and Xu Xiu.

After hearing all this, Shen Yuan was equally astonished.

He had been researching the various secrets behind Yangnao Land over the years, some of which he only vaguely guessed.

Now Xu Xiu revealed them all at once, truly making him feel surprised.

”Xu Xiu’s meaning is that the Dao Source Secret Realm formed by Yangnao Land won’t cause aberrations to cultivators like the Underworld.”

”He also said that the Shen Family will become the most esteemed power within the secret realm.”

”He asked me to bring words to you, saying to let the Shen Family wait with peace of mind.”

Shen Wen’an chuckled while conveying Xu Xiu’s final words.

Shen Yuan’s expression turned peculiar upon hearing this.

”Is this old guy trying to keep us calm?”

”Forget it. No need to worry about this for now; while he schemes, our Shen Family should continue preparing.”

”Now that you’ve all safely returned, I can be at ease.”

”By the way, recently Chongxuan, entrusted by Xiubai, went to Danzhou.”

”Have someone find Chongxuan; I want to ask him some questions.”

Shen Wen’an cupped his hands slightly before leaving the Black Water Pavilion.

...

Shen Li, in her Moon White Long Skirt, barefoot on the Golden Toad’s back, displayed a rare hint of joy in her usually indifferent expression today.

The trip to Beidi County was fruitful.

Not only successfully did she facilitate the Celestial Capital Grass Sword Insect’s crucial transformation from its larval stage to growth stage using the Profound Ice Marrow, but she also collected the remaining Profound Ice Marrow into her Storage Bag.

This type of Heavenly and Earthly Treasure is extremely useful for both Alchemy and Artifact Refining, making it a highly valuable treasure.

”Master, where are we headed next?”

Flying out of Beidi County’s icy terrain, the Golden Toad felt its owner’s joy and naturally felt glad as well.

”Let’s go to the Western Wilderness; I promised Brother Chongming that I would visit if it was convenient.”

”When passing by Flame Lake City, we can also let Little Green draw some Earth Fire Essence Qi from the Magma Lake to speed up the transformation.”

”Alright!” The Golden Toad responded happily, its Demon Essence stirring, it flew directly toward the Western Wilderness.

At the same time, at the position outside Flame Lake City known as Wangyue Mountain.

Two figures in yellow-and-white Taoist robes stood on the peak of Wangyue Mountain, observing Flame Lake City in the distance.

”Senior Sister Ning, you’ve been observing for days; when do we take action?”

The fair-skinned youth, with bright eyes and teeth, played with an azure long sword in his hand, speaking impatiently.

In front of him, the female cultivator with a hair bun and veiled face quietly observed Flame Lake City and responded in a low voice:

”The City Defense Array here has barely reached the level of a Fourth Grade Spirit Array.”

”The array setter’s strength is likely no less than the Golden Core Realm.”

”Having an Array Master of Golden Core Realm here proves that the force backing this city is at least a Fourth Grade Immortal Sect.”

”Master sent us to scout this world carefully, so it’s best to be cautious.”

The fair-skinned youth pursed his lips upon hearing this.

”So what if it’s a Fourth Grade Immortal Sect?”

”Senior Sister, you are already in the Purple Mansion; even a Fourth Grade Immortal Sect would treat you politely.”

”Besides, we can simply use Spirit Crystals to exchange for the Earth Fire Flame Crystal Marrow, rather than force...”

”Quiet!”

”Someone’s coming!”

Before the fair-skinned youth finished speaking, the female cultivator known as Ning felt something and immediately cast a barrier to conceal their aura around the two.

In the distance, the Golden Toad carrying Shen Li transformed into a beam of Golden Light, rushing swiftly.

As they passed Wangyue Mountain, Shen Li inadvertently glanced at the location where the two were, and her divine sense swept through their concealed barrier.

”Senior Sister, did that female cultivator discover us!?”

The fair-skinned youth was surprised, saying, ”She is only in the early stage of Golden Core, which shouldn’t be the case.”

Beside him, the female cultivator surnamed Ning remained silent, her beautiful eyes curiously studying Shen Li in the distance.

In the void, the swiftly flying Golden Toad sensed its owner’s anomaly and promptly slowed down.

”Master, what happened?”

Shen Li was silent for a moment, then softly said, ”It’s fine, let’s go.”

Just now, she vaguely felt two extremely obscure auras on that barren mountain top in the distance.

But after careful observation, she found nothing.

She just assumed she was hallucinating and did not dwell on it.

Upon hearing this, the Golden Toad sped up abruptly, heading directly toward Flame Lake City.

After she left, the Ning female cultivator slowly put away the barrier and murmured with interest, ”This person’s Divine Soul Cultivation is strong, and her aura is somewhat similar to those mysterious witches in Great Woe Land...”

”Witch?” The fair-skinned youth was curious and looked over.
