Yang Junshan was actually a bit depressed. Although entering the Dark Market this time had broadened his horizons, in reality, apart from a ten thousand jin coral with a dozen different spirit materials, he had gained nothing else. Because of the words of the Dongliu Family's Ancestor, he hurriedly left the trading center.
Outside of the auction house, Sage Jiang Xin looked at Yang Junshan with a strange expression. Naturally, he did not forget about the "conflict" he had with Yang Junshan because of the unending stream of Limitless Spell. However, Sage Jiang Xin never expected that this person would actually gain the favor of his sect's Dongliu Ancestor.
"Haha, fellow cultivator, at the auction just now, I considered you as a competitor from other sects in the Huzhou. That's why I have offended you. Please don't blame me!"
Since Daoist Master Jiang Xin had made such an attitude, Yang Junshan, who had never suffered a loss, would naturally not take it seriously. He smiled and said, "Dao Friend Jiang, you must be joking. Before, our identities were unclear. We are only competing fairly. We can't be considered as offending!"
"Haha, that's good, that's good!"
This Daoist Master Jiang Xin seemed to like laughing before he spoke, as if he wouldn't be able to attract anyone else's attention if he didn't do so. "Fellow Daoist, may I know how to address you?"
Yang Junshan followed Sage Jiangxin to a small and exquisite array. Yang Junshan knew that this array had a similar effect to the flying array, it was just that it was missing a Void Escape Token.
"My surname is Yang." Yang Junshan naturally wouldn't reveal her family's identity. She pointed at the formation on the ground and said, "Fellow Jiang, this is …"
Sage Jianxin smiled, "This is the special space passage that my Flying Stream Sect uses in the dark market. With our cultivations, we can only go listen to Yuxuan, the sect's largest encampment in the South Heaven Gate. Grandmaster Dongliu is probably waiting for us there."
Yang Junshan praised, "Your sect is worthy of being one of the top sects in the cultivation world. We still have such a big business in the immortal palace. I wonder how we ordinary cultivators would like to leave the trade center?"
Without even looking back, he said, "As long as a cultivator leaves the meeting place, naturally, a person from the Heavenly Arts Sect will appear and bring them to a different spatial tunnel, and then the cultivator will appear in all parts of the South Heaven Gate. Only a few large sects have a fixed business in the immortal palace, so they can have a special spatial tunnel."
"Done!"
Just as Daoist Master Jiang Xin finished his explanation, space began to tremble faintly as a pitch-black spatial gate appeared in front of the two of them. He turned his head to look and said, "Brother Yang, please!"
After saying that, he stepped into the door and disappeared.
Yang Junshan hesitated for only a moment, and then lowered his head to enter the portal as well.
The sound of flowing water reached Yang Junshan's ears when he came out of the Space Gate. When he raised his head, he found that Yang Junshan was in a pavilion in the middle of the lake.
"Fellow Daoist Yang, please follow me. The grandmaster has arrived first!"
Daoist Master Jiang Xin nodded towards Yang Junshan, then took the lead to walk along a corridor. Yang Junshan followed closely behind, and after walking a few steps back and forth along the corridor, they arrived at a pavilion with a large amount of water.
Without waiting for Yang Junshan to pay his respects, Daofather Eastflow immediately asked, "Are you still worried that you might have the mood to come to the Immortal palace and participate in the dark market trade fair?"
Yang Junshan was slightly surprised. This was the second time that the Eastern Flows Grandmaster had asked this question. He suddenly had a bad feeling and hurriedly said, "Senior, what do you mean? Has something big happened in Yuzhou?"
Daoist Dongliu spoke with a solemn expression, "That's right. There are demonic cultivators wreaking havoc in the Jade Province. The Jingyang Sect has been exterminated. That place is now the domain of the Demon race and Asura Race."
Yang Junshan was shocked when he heard that the Jingyang Sect had been destroyed, but he also said, "This junior does not know, but although the Jingyang Sect has been destroyed, the demons and Asura Race are not wise to do so. The Jingyang Sect is surrounded by large sects of the Jade Province, and the Xuan Yuan Sect is under the watch of the ancestor of the Xuan Yuan Sect.
"A big sect?"
His expression was filled with contempt as he said, "If there is a great sect in the Yanzhou Region, why did I make Dao Friend Ziyuan leave the immortal palace in a hurry? If I didn't receive the sound transmitting talisman from you, I wouldn't have rushed to the dark market to find you."
Yang Junshan was stunned upon hearing this. He sent a sound transmitting talisman to Patriarch Violet Garden not long after he left the Heavenly Arts Workshop. From the looks of it, the demonic calamity that happened in Yuzhou should have happened at that time.
As Yang Junshan thought of this, he quickly said, "Senior, please tell us what happened at the Jingyang Sect."
The Dongliu Ancestor waved his hand and said, "We have yet to receive any specific information, but we know that the demons are coming in aggressively this time. For the sake of the Jingyang Sect's power and the forces of the Jade Province, the other foreign powers have also invited them to help. The foreign Dao Patriarchs have also taken action, and the different sects of the Jade Province have already mobilized. You are the number one expert of the Yang Family, yet you have already advanced to the Great Gale Stage, and your soul consciousness has reached the Perfection Stage?"
He had always thought that Yang Junshan had used a secret art to disguise himself, but now, he realized that he had already advanced to the Great Constellation Realm. What was more shocking than Yang Junshan was that Yang Junshan's soul consciousness had also reached the Great Circle, which meant that Yang Junshan already had the foundation to break through to the Dao Realm.
However, the Dongliu Ancestor was a great cultivator. After being slightly shocked, he returned to normal and said, "Anyway, the situation at the Jingyang Sect should be very dangerous this time. A big battle is unavoidable."
Yang Junshan questioned, "Before, the foreign forces had never been this powerful in Yuzhou. Moreover, the human side had the advantage in terms of overall situation. The demons' actions must have some deep meaning. Could it be that the Jingyang Sect has some kind of demon cultivator?"
He said, "Although you don't know the specific reason, your guess isn't unreasonable. Fellow Daoist Purple Garden also said that some extraordinary devil treasure had been discovered in the mountain gates of the Jingyang Sect. It is worth it for the demonic cultivators who have been hiding in the vicinity of the Xi Men Prefecture to gather at Lang Prefecture despite the risk of being completely annihilated."1
Yang Junshan had already decided to return. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your information, senior. Junior will return to Yuzhou right away."
Unexpectedly, forefather Eastflow waved his hand at this moment, saying, "No rush!"
Yang Junshan paused in his steps, and looked towards Dongliu Dongliu, only to hear him say: "This time, the chaos among the demons will not be quelled in a short time, since you are already too late, your two treasures at the trade fair have really piqued this old man's interest. Why not take them out for this old man to see, you and I will make a deal, and it will save you the time of leaving empty-handed."
Yang Junshan was overjoyed when he heard this. He originally thought that Dongliu Ancestor only called him out to inform him about what had happened in the Jade Province, but he did not expect that he had taken a fancy to his treasure as well. With the connection between him and the Purple Garden's Daofather, and more importantly, Dongliu Ancestor had placed a portion of his own lightning tribulation on him.
Seeing Yang Junshan take out a piece of thousand-year old peach wood and a bunch of thousand-year Ice Worm Silk, the originally expressionless Sage Jiangxin couldn't help but change his expression. However, Dongliu Ancestor directly took the bunch of thousand-year Ice Worm Silk and looked at it, then said: "It's indeed a good thing, but it's just a little too little, this amount of silk isn't enough to weave a piece of cloth."
Yang Junshan smiled but didn't say anything, of course he wouldn't leak out the news that he had the thousand-year Ice Silkworm in his hand, not to mention that such a bunch of silk made Yang Junshan's flesh ache. This was an inventory of at least five to seven years of the Ice Silkworm's life, and it was under the premise that the mulberry leaves produced by the Spirit Mulberry Tree could gradually satisfy the Ice Silkworm's appetite.
After putting down the Ice Worm Silk, Patriarch Eastflow took the thousand-year Thunderbolt Peach Wood and said, "If this old man had seen it before I advanced to the Dao Realm, I'm afraid I would have done everything I could to obtain it. But now …"
Patriarch Eastflow paused for a moment, then turned to ask Adept Jiang Xin, "Do you have any interest in this lightning tree?"
"The Great Yuan Divine Sword Lightning Art!"
Daoist Master Jiang Xin looked at the thousand-year-old lightning striking the peach tree, and then looked at Daoist Master Jiang Xin. His gaze was very complex, with a hint of yearning, hesitation, and even a trace of fear.
"Forget it!"
He no longer forced himself to say, "This old man will take this as well. Although this old man's path is dangerous, there will always be people who will leave in the future. This item will be left to the younger generation of the Flying Sect!"
Upon hearing the words of Patriarch Eastflow, Adept Jiang Xin let out a slight sigh of relief, but at the same time, a hint of shame also appeared on his face.
After enjoying the two treasures for a while, the Dongliu Ancestor turned to Yang Junshan and asked, "You want to collect the Yin Yang Source Qi and cultivate the Two Elements of Dust Light, but do you know what the most basic Yin Yang Qi in this world is?"
Yang Junshan did not know about this, he quickly bowed and said, "Please give me your guidance, senior."
Forefather Eastflow nodded. "The world has just begun. The world has just been formed. Something light and clean has risen to the sky, while something heavy and turbid has sunk to the earth. These two objects are the very first source of yin and yang energy in this world."
Looking at Yang Junshan's slightly depressed expression, Dongliu Grandmaster smiled and said: "Of course, it is impossible for you to find the source of nature now, but everything is evolving, and the original source of nature is also evolving to become Yin and Yang along with this world. However, although only pure Yin and Yang energy is needed to cultivate the two Minor Dust Light Arts, there is a variety of Yin and Yang energy, and the most suitable combination is none other than the Nine Heavens Clear Qi and the Earth Dark Qi."
