Eternal Tale

A few people were focused and silent, with only the sound of the mountain wind howling across the cliff.

Chen Xun took out a teacup and spoke slowly, ”That superpower is called Da Li, possessing 360 major states and even maritime territories, along with late-stage Divine Transformation beings.”

Three hundred and sixty major states and maritime territories!

The four of them gasped, unable to imagine the vastness of such a domain, as they had never even heard of maritime territories.

Liu Han’’s demeanor changed dramatically, her eyes sparkling as she began to take notes in a small booklet, ”Ancestor, what about the Tian Duan Plains?”

Her response was always a step ahead, as the decisions and future of the Five Aggregates Sect needed her consideration before formulating subsequent plans.

Chen Xun smiled slightly, looking at Liu Han, ”There is a Tian Duan chasm there, do not approach it, it’’s extremely dangerous.”

Upon hearing this, their expressions changed slightly. If it was dangerous enough for the Ancestor to mention, they had already killed their curiosity, knowing their current strength was certainly insufficient.

”The ancient forces and lands in Da Li are numerous. Even though the Five Aggregates Sect now stands at the pinnacle of Kingdom Qian, it would still be insignificant there. You must not expose yourselves.”

Chen Xun squinted slightly, glancing at Black Bull, ”Your Ancestor Bull will establish a large teleportation array across the Tian Duan Plains, but the disciples who go must be thoroughly screened and absolutely trustworthy.””This matter is for you to arrange yourselves. Without a Divine Transformation phase guardian, do not expose this world of immortals or the teleportation array. Steadily increase your strength.”

”At least ten Elemental Infant phase guardians are needed before arrangements can begin. You must divide and conquer; Da Li has many secret realms for cultivating immortality, and you must compete for them.”

”Take these resources for cultivating immortality, including body refining techniques and many spiritual herbs, to plant in the Spiritual Medicine Garden.”

Chen Xun appeared calm and unhurried as he began to make arrangements step by step, ”On the path of cultivating immortality, I can only lay the foundation for you. The future depends on yourselves.”

The four of them were visibly shaken by the astonishing news, finding it difficult to digest, as they stared at the storage ring on the table in a slight daze.

”Moo moo~” Black Bull called out, swinging its tail, taking responsibility for the teleportation array.

Little Chi chuckled, his eyes darting around, thinking about something unknown.

”Ancestor... what about you?”

Liu Han frowned, more worried about him, ”These matters can be planned over time.”

Ji Zhao looked deeply at Chen Xun and Black Bull, ”Indeed, you and Ancestor Bull have already done too much for us.”

Shi Wujun’’s eyes were deep, his black hair lightly dancing, silent, but feeling as if these words were like final instructions.

”Three seniors, is there a major change in Da Li?”

Jiang Xuechen seemed to know something, a trace of worry on her face, ”Can you tell us? We will not act impulsively.”

Hearing this, Liu Han and the others were also filled with concern. The Ancestor’’s return was definitely not simple, nor merely a reunion.

Black Bull shook its head, ”Moo moo~”

”Hehe...”

Chen Xun shook his head with a light laugh, ”No need to overthink it. You will know everything in due time. Take it step by step, and do not aim too high.”

”Ancestor, will there be danger?!”

Liu Han was slightly agitated, pressing her red lips tightly, ”If there is danger, as you taught us, fleeing is the best option.”

Little Chi looked at Chen Xun, his pupils slightly widening. So Xun taught the sect disciples like this...

Chen Xun chuckled, waving his hand, ”There is no danger. Just take care of yourselves. Ancestor Bull and I would not do anything without certainty.”

Ji Zhao quietly glanced at Black Bull, but the latter remained calm.

”Moo~~” Black Bull snorted, its eyes honest, revealing nothing on its face.

”Alright, Liu Han, the Ancestor will have his considerations, don’’t meddle.”

Shi Wujun finally spoke, his words quite cold, ”It’’s all because our cultivation is not enough, don’’t cause trouble for the Ancestor.”

Liu Han opened her mouth slightly, wanting to speak but stopping, Shi Wujun’’s words were like a cold shower, making her eyes gradually dim, but this was reality.

However, her mind began to become active, thinking that if this generation couldn’’t do it, the next one, or the one after that, would definitely be able to truly help the Ancestor one day.

Liu Han’’s once dim gaze gradually became sharp again, with future plans already forming in her mind.

Ji Zhao’’s eyes were deep, having completely buried matters of love deep in his heart, now focusing on the significant development of the sect.

The atmosphere on the cliff was somewhat oppressive, with everyone falling silent, each with their own considerations.

”Senior, how do you view the chaotic world of immortals in the eastern countries?”

Jiang Xuechen suddenly spoke, breaking the silence, ”If we are to go to Da Li, we must integrate the resources of this world of immortals.”

They had talked a lot just now, but Chen Xun had never expressed any opinion.

Chen Xun’’s lips curled into a smile, his eyes as calm as an ancient well, ”Of course, take it slowly, the Four Symbols Alliance is not worth worrying about.”

After speaking, he took out another small booklet, explaining, ”These are some plans. Hehe, in the world of immortals, harmony is precious.”

”Moo~!”

Black Bull let out a silly cry, remembering Chen Xun had said this before, which was in a letter to Senior Brother Ji, and that woman ended up dying inexplicably.

”Brother Bull?” Little Chi looked puzzled, then at the kind-faced Xun, not understanding.

Jiang Xuechen stood up and saluted, having always admired Chen Xun and never forgetting Ancestor Jinyu’’s words.

”Who is the fourth Elemental Infant of the Five Aggregates Sect? I am somewhat curious.”

”Reporting to the Ancestor, his name is Qi Hao, once a disciple of the sect’’s medicine garden, claiming to have received great kindness from you. He entered the Endless Mountain Range in the late Foundation Establishment stage, and upon returning... he was already an Elemental Infant.”

Shi Wujun respectfully replied, his eyes carrying a strange look, ”He said there was a legacy left by our ancient sages in the Endless Mountain Range.”

”Received my great kindness?”

Chen Xun raised an eyebrow, never having heard of such a person, ”Bull, do you know him?”

”Moo moo!” Black Bull shook its head quickly, knowing that anyone who survived until now was not someone known in the sect.

”Ancestor, he didn’’t say much, but he has been dedicated to the Five Aggregates Sect all these years, without complaint.”

Liu Han added, Qi Hao was clear about love and hate, getting along well with them, ”And he greatly admires your booklet, Ancestor.”

Chen Xun shook his head with a light laugh, never having imagined that his booklet would be so popular in the Five Aggregates Sect, even though it quite subverted the common knowledge of the world of immortals.

He slowly stood up, looking at the distant majestic mountains, with a hint of coldness, ”Alright, let’’s leave it at that. Seeing you all well now, I have no regrets.”

By this time, night had quietly fallen, with a bright moon hanging high, white and silent, and the sky full of stars, as if the heavens were being kind.

Chen Xun couldn’’t help but look up, raising his teacup, an action that left the four of them stunned and silent.

”Ancestor, there is actually one last thing.”

Liu Han stood up, pondering for a moment, ”The spiritual qi of the Five Aggregates Sect is somewhat strange. After all these years, it seems not to have diminished.”

”Yes, I know about this, no need to worry.”

Chen Xun placed one hand behind his back, his demeanor becoming somewhat ethereal, ”This is related to some of my conjectures, but the time is too short to see clearly yet.”

When he left back then, he had buried several severed roots of millennia-old Crane Spirit Trees underground, and now some changes could be seen, but whether they could evolve into a Spirit Vein was still too early to tell.

Shi Wujun and Ji Zhao exchanged glances, their eyes filled with intense shock, unable to see through the Ancestor.
