604: C604 Head of the Zhang Family

C604 Head of the Zhang Family

As for the Zhang Family and Ouyang Family, they were the two major factions of the East District Pill Sect.

If the Zhang Family became stronger because she led Ling Jian into the Zhang Family, it would not be bad news for the entire Zhang Family.

Although Bai Wei belonged to the Pill Sect, she belonged to the Zhang family. Now that she had brought Ling Jian back, she would naturally be very excited.

Under Bai Wei's lead, Ling Jian and the others quickly entered the Zhang family's residence.

Ling Yun, Mu Qiurou, and the others were arranged to different rooms by the Zhang family's servants.

As for Ling Jian, he did not make the arrangements first. Under Bai Wei's lead, he headed towards the Zhang Family's Patriarch's residence.

Now that he had joined the Zhang family, this matter was only mentioned by Bai Wei in name. However, if he really wanted to carry it out, he still needed to meet the current head of the Zhang family.

The Zhang family's deployment was also very densely packed. However... This was not the first time Bai Wei had come here, and she was extremely deep in the structure of this place. After a while, she brought Ling Jian to the best building.

This building was not the tallest, but it was extremely luxurious. It had a very simple and strange design, and it was hard to forget it at first glance.

Ling Jian followed Bai Wei into the building very quickly. The spiritual energy in the area was extremely rich. It turned into a faint fog that kept floating around.

Ling Jian took a deep breath. He felt that if he cultivated here for a long time, his efficiency would naturally be much higher than outside.

"Pill Master Ling Jian must have also sensed that the spiritual energy here is different from the outside world, right?"

Bai Wei said with a smile.

Ling Jian nodded. He could sense it.

"To tell you the truth, the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth here is so dense. The reason is that back then, the Patriarch personally cleared a Heaven rank array master and deployed a Spirit Gathering Array. This is why the spiritual energy here far exceeds the outside. "

Bai Wei began to explain to Ling Jian again.

When she talked about Heaven Grade array masters, even though he was a Heaven Grade alchemist, his face was filled with envy.

Alchemists were an enviable position in the Mixed Yuan World, but there was another position in the Mixed Yuan World that people liked.

Their status was almost on par with alchemists, and the classification was the same.

However, compared to apothecaries, the so-called array masters were extremely rare, especially the high-level array masters, which was even rarer.

This was because the terrifying aspect of a formation master was that of a higher level formation master. Any powerful formation master's cultivation would not be too weak. Not only that, they have a huge advantage in group battles. Some powerful high-ranked formation users could fight in large-scale battles. It would decide the outcome of the battle.

However, regarding this point, Ling Jian became even calmer.

In the eyes of others, formations might be somewhat difficult to start with, but to him, they were not unfamiliar at all.

In particular, within the mysterious scroll on his body, there were countless types of records.

When he heard Bai Wei's words, his head started to wrinkle. With his skill in formations, he could naturally sense it at the first moment. The formations inside were not bad, but they were still a bit lacking when it came to actual Heaven-grade formations. Obviously, it was not too perfect.

Of course, only he knew about this. He could not tell Bai Wei about it. Even if he did, she might not choose to believe him. Furthermore, the reason he had joined the Zhang family was because the Zhang family could get what he wanted. As for the rest of the matters, if there was no need for it... He would definitely not make a move.

The two of them slowly walked up the stairs.

In a short while, the two of them had already arrived at the top floor. Compared to the ground floor below, the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth here was clearly denser.

Soon, under Bai Wei's lead, the two of them arrived in front of a room.

"Crack crack crack!"

Bai Wei walked in front of the door and took note of it with her hand. Then, a voice came from behind the door. "Come in."

Bai Wei opened the door and walked into the room with Ling Jian.

As soon as they entered the room, Ling Jian's eyes swept across the room and quickly looked away.

The room was not that spacious, and the buildings inside were very ordinary. They were not considered luxurious, but Ling Jian felt that there was nothing wrong with this.

Very quickly, Ling Jian's gaze stopped on a figure behind the room.

It was a middle-aged man, and he seemed to be in his thirties. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on a hassock, and his chest was beating. Spiritual energy was being sucked out from his mouth and nose, and he was obviously cultivating.

However, when Ling Jian's gaze landed on the middle-aged man, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Heavenly Source Realm expert!"

Ling Jian thought to himself. The Zhang Clan's Patriarch in front of him had actually reached the Heavenly Origin Stage. This cultivation could be considered as the strongest cultivator he had encountered since arriving in the Mixed Element World.

The Heavenly Dao Realm was divided into the Heaven Enlightenment Realm, the Heavenly Source Realm, and the Heavenly Execution Realm.

In each realm, it was further divided into the top, middle, and peak.

"Hu!"

And at this moment, that middle-aged man suddenly exhaled a mouthful of foul air. After which, his breathing paused as he absorbed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth from the outside world. After which, his eyes slowly opened. After which, he looked at Bai Wei. There was even a trace of surprise on his face.

"Bai Wei."

The head of the Zhang family looked at Bai Wei, and his tone immediately became much gentler. He said, "Bai Wei, you've finally returned. Don't you know that the journey has been smooth?"

As he spoke, he stood up from the hassock, looking very enthusiastic.

Bai Wei smiled and said, "The journey was rather smooth. There were no accidents."

Ling Jian saw all of this, and his eyes gradually lit up. The head of the Zhang family was actually a Heavenly Source Realm expert, and he had even reached the Heavenly Source Realm middle stage. Looks like joining the Zhang Clan this time, he should be able to obtain some things that he wanted, right?

However, just this point alone made it unrealistic for him to become the head of the Zhang Clan. Besides his superb cultivation, his grasp of emotions could not be too weak.

Even though Bai Wei was a servant, the head of the Zhang family still maintained a very warm attitude.

Although this had a lot to do with Bai Wei being a Heaven Grade alchemist, it was not hard to tell that the head of the Zhang family was very cultured.

After talking for a period of time, the head of the Zhang family looked at Ling Jian.

"Bai Wei, is this the young man who came with you?"

The head of the Zhang family said. His eyes kept looking at Ling Jian. Just now, when the two of them were talking, they also mentioned Ling Jian.

Especially on Ling Jian's body, he could feel it. A life force that only young people had, although it was said that some powerful cultivators... They could also do the same thing as young people, but this kind of strong life force could not be changed.

Bai Wei was a Heaven Grade alchemist, and although she looked gentle, she was still a Heaven Grade alchemist. She was polite to others, but the Zhang family's head knew. A Heaven Grade alchemist was extremely arrogant from the bottom of his heart. He did not expect that this young man in front of him would actually enter Bai Wei's eyes.

At Ling Jian's age, for Bai Wei to take a liking to him, it could be said that this young man in front of him must have something extraordinary about him.

"Clan leader, this is Alchemist Ling Jian. I only met him in Huntian City. He just happened to come with me to the Tai Huang Divine City. I was just about to introduce him to you."

Bai Wei smiled and spoke for the clan head of the Zhang Clan.

"Alchemist Ling Jian?"

The head of the Zhang family was stunned, and then looked over in surprise. He clearly understood the meaning behind Bai Wei's words. He did not expect that this young man in front of him was actually an alchemist.

Bai Wei nodded and said, Yes.

At that moment, the head of the Zhang family was in a good mood. He looked at Ling Jian and asked, "May I know what level of alchemist you are?"

Ling Jian was so young. In his opinion, only people who could become a Spiritual Grade were qualified to be recommended by Bai Wei. If not, even if an ordinary alchemist had outstanding talent, they would not necessarily be worthy of Bai Wei's attention.

"You can say that you are a Heaven Grade alchemist."

Ling Jian spoke calmly.

However, as soon as he said those words, the Zhang Family's Patriarch was momentarily stunned.

He frowned, not understanding why Ling Jian said that.

This was the first time he had heard someone describe his skill in alchemy, without a definite accuracy.

In his shock, he looked at Bai Wei.

"Clan head, Pill Master Ling Jian's skill has indeed reached a certain level. However, because he did not receive the recognition of my Pill Sect and the Heaven Grade Pill Alchemist Token he issued, he did not send out a genuine confirmation."

Bai Wei smiled as she spoke.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, it caused the clan head of the Zhang Clan to frown even more.

He naturally knew that Bai Wei would not lie, but he also knew how powerful and authoritative the Alchemy Ancestor was.

In the Tai Huang Divine City, the Pill Sect represented authority. If an alchemist did not even have the approval of the Pill Sect, then what kind of alchemist was he?

"Although Alchemist Ling Jian did not receive the recognition of the Alchemy Ancestor, he was able to refine a cauldron full of Earth Wood to refine pills. Furthermore, this pill's grade has already reached Quasi-Heaven."

Bai Wei said softly.

Although her words were not much of a ripple, after they were spoken, it caused the heart of the Zhang family's head to tremble.

There were clearly not many chances to successfully refine a cauldron full of medicinal pills. He did not expect Ling Jian to actually succeed.

"Bai Wei, is what you said true?"

At this moment, the Zhang family's patriarch still looked over in disbelief. Although he was not an alchemist, he knew that there were not many opportunities to refine a cauldron full of pills, let alone a Quasi-heaven-grade pill.

This was not the main point. The main point was that Ling Jian was still so young. This made him feel even more incredulous.

If that was really the case, then Ling Jian's value would indeed be very high.

"Patriarch, actually, this isn't the most powerful aspect of Apothecary Ling Jian. I still have one more thing I need to report to you, Patriarch."

Bai Wei looked at the patriarch of the Zhang family, her voice slightly fluctuating.

"Oh, go ahead."

The head of the Zhang family also looked over curiously. He could sense some subtle fluctuations from Bai Wei's emotions.

"Other than being an alchemist, little friend Ling Jian is also a cultivator with very strong combat power."

After taking a clear breath, Bai Wei tried her best to recover herself. Then she said, "When we were in Zhendi City, Pill Master Ling defeated the number one hall master of the Demon Palace by himself. He defeated an early-stage Heaven Enlightenment Realm cultivator. "

When he heard Bai Wei's first sentence, the Zhang family's head disapproved, but when she heard that Ling Jian was able to defeat an early stage Heaven Enlightenment Realm cultivator, her expression became even worse.

Ling Jian looked young. Could it be that he was already a Heavenly Dao Realm expert?

When he thought of this, he looked at Ling Jian. His eyes flickered with an uncertain luster. Even though he was usually calm and steady, it was still difficult for him to suppress it.

A Heavenly Dao Realm expert at such a young age, and he was even able to refine a cauldron full of Quasi-Heavenly Pills, how could such a figure appear on a young man?

"En, why can't I see through it?"

While feeling puzzled, he looked at Ling Jian carefully, but soon, he became even more bewildered. Logically speaking, with his Heavenly Source Intermediate Stage cultivation, it was naturally easy for him to check Ling Jian's current cultivation level.

However, the strange thing was that his opponent actually had a layer of grey and chaotic light covering his true cultivation level.

He did not believe that Ling Jian had reached the Heavenly Source Stage at such a young age. Otherwise, how could he not detect any fluctuations?

Very quickly, the Zhang Clan's Patriarch released his divine sense. Then, he enveloped Ling Jian. However, just as this Divine Sense enveloped Ling Jian... The next moment, he felt an even stronger divine sense shuttling through Ling Jian's sea of consciousness.

Not only was that divine sense powerful, but it was also extremely sharp, like a real divine sword. Just as his divine sense was removed, he felt a burst of intense pain.

"This!"

The Zhang Clan's Patriarch widened his eyes in disbelief.

Although he had already stepped into the middle-stage Heavenly Source Realm, the power of his divine sense was not comparable to Ling Jian's.

"Zhang Family's Patriarch, is this how you treat guests? Using Divine Sense to probe other people's secrets?"

Ling Jian's gaze stared at the Zhang Family Head opposite him. His tone was calm, but it carried a chill. As his words fell, the temperature in the entire room suddenly turned cold.

Bai Wei did not know that the two had actually touched each other's divine sense, but after hearing Ling Jian's words, she knew what had happened. She immediately said, "Head of the family, don't misunderstand!"

She could invite Ling Jian over, but that did not mean that the entire Zhang family would care about Ling Jian. Now, she did not want the two of them to have a deadlock as soon as they met.

Only then did the patriarch withdraw his divine sense. When he looked at Ling Jian again, his expression became more and more serious. After a while, he cupped his hands and bowed to Ling Jian.

"I was being rude just now. Please don't take it to heart if you allow an alchemist like Ling Jian to fill up the list."

The head of the Zhang Clan's attitude was extremely gentle, and his expression was quite honest. Clearly, he did not put on any pretense.

Although he was the head of the Zhang Clan and a Heavenly Source Realm expert, he did not put on any airs at this moment.

Alchemy Master Bai Wei, who was by the side, was also slightly shocked. She had never thought that the Zhang family's patriarch would be like this for the sake of Ling Jian.

"Head of the Zhang family, I hope this will be the last time."

Ling Jian said indifferently.

Even in the face of the Zhang Family Head's attitude, he still didn't give much face.

Even though he still hadn't broken through to the peak of the Heavenly Spirit Path, he was still more than enough to deal with some Heaven Enlightenment Realm experts. Even if he really broke all pretenses of cordiality with the Zhang Family's patriarch, even if he couldn't beat him, there was still no problem for him to escape.

However, that didn't mean much to him. Furthermore, doing so would only make Bai Wei even more embarrassed. Being caught in the middle would only make him feel helpless.

Furthermore, he was also extremely interested in the map outside the Desolate Heaven.

"Don't worry, little friend Ling Jian. I won't be rude anymore."

The Zhang Clan's Patriarch immediately smiled and said.

Right now, he was somewhat regretting what he had just done.

Ling Jian did not comment and did not continue to pay too much attention to this. Instead, he looked at Bai Wei and said with a smile, "If Alchemist Bai Wei has nothing else to do, then I will go to the resting area first."0

Bai Wei nodded.

Ling Jian looked at the head of the Zhang family again. After a moment of reorganization, he walked out.

Only after Ling Jian's figure left did the two of them look away from their backs. After which, the head of the Zhang family looked towards Bai Wei.

"Bai Wei, do you know the true origin of Pill Master Ling Jian?"

In the room, after Ling Jian left, the head of the Zhang family finally couldn't help but ask.

At this moment, he was extremely suspicious of Ling Jian's origins.

Ordinary forces would absolutely not be able to nurture such a genius.

After all, abandoning Ling Jian and being able to refine a full batch of Quasi-Heaven Pills... Merely the tyrannical Divine Sense that he had just displayed was not something that an ordinary disciple of a clan could possess. The other party was so young, so how could he possibly feel that even a Heavenly Source Realm expert like him was unable to resist his Divine Sense?

Even though this was merely a battle of Divine Sense that Ling Jian had displayed, however... No one could guarantee that this young man's spiritual energy was also as strong as Ling Jian's. If that's the case, then the other party's identity definitely won't be that simple... Perhaps even he, the head of the family, would be eclipsed in front of him.

Bai Wei knew why the head of the Zhang family would treat Ling Jian this way. When she saw the eagerness in the eyes of the Zhang family's head, she told him how Ling Jian, whom she had met in Chaos Heaven City, and everything she had experienced when she had gone to the Tai Huang Heaven City with Ling Jian.

"What? He didn't even make a move, yet he seriously injured the First Hall Master?"

The Zhang Clan's Patriarch spoke in a low voice, and at the same time, he had an idea in his mind.

"That's right. From the moment the First Hall Master came out to the moment he was severely injured, it only took him an instant. He didn't even make a move."

Bai Wei naturally wouldn't lie. She seemed to have thought of something. The difference between the Heavenly Dao Realm and the Spiritual Dao Realm was not only the need to condense the Heavenly Dao Embryo Body, but there was also an even more terrifying ability, Divine Sense.
