Chapter 1217 - The Divine Sky and Wind Valley

Chapter 1217: The Divine Sky and Wind Valley

Even though Luo Yunyang was extremely guarded against Yuan Sage Shending, he was still powerless before the Yuan Sage. That was why the only thing he could do for now was quietly accumulate even more strength.

He would only be in charge of his son’s destiny when he had sufficient strength to contend against Yuan Sage Shending.

The news of Luo Shaocong’s acceptance by the highly-selective Yuan Sage Shending as a disciple was a cause for celebration for the whole Luo Family.

A few martialists who had initially threatened the elders because of their displeasure about having him in the Luo Family now changed their attitude completely. Some people even attacked the perpetrators who had initially done this, and others asked Luo Yunyang to have a say in the decision-making process of the Luo Family.

Luo Yunyang did not care much about all these changes.

Even so, he followed the suggestion of the Luo Family and held a massive celebration.

The purpose of this event was to celebrate the fact that Luo Shaocong had become a disciple of Yuan Sage Shending.

The way the major powers celebrated was different in the Vast Sky Sacred Realm. What was most interesting was that there were various ways of attaining the same sort of success. This was so that nobody would underestimate the abilities of anyone else. The reason Luo Yunyang had acceded to the request of the Luo Family was so he would not be suspected by Yuan Sage Shending.

Even though he had already explained why he wanted to stop his son from becoming the disciple of Yuan Sage Shending, he still decided not to go against this. After all, such an action might place him in a disadvantageous situation given that things were still developing.

There was even a possibility that Yuan Sage Shending might get rid of him even before he could accumulate sufficient strength. Then, there would not even be any room for negotiation and nobody would ever find out how he had been destroyed.

While he treated this celebration as a ruse, the entire Luo Family treated it as a real joyous celebration.

Many guests had been invited to the celebration, and there were dozens of peak Yuan Monarchs on the guest list alone.

These people crowded around Luo Yunyang, obviously hoping to interact with him more.

As the entire family was joyously celebrating, Yuan Sage Shending in Shending Realm smiled.

He chose to believe what Luo Yunyang had said. He wouldn’t have bothered with Luo Yunyang at all if he was not the father of his disciple.

Half a month later, Luo Yunyang returned to the Taixu Sect once more. In his opinion, he would experience a change in status now that his son had successfully become the disciple of Yuan Sage Shending.

Unexpectedly, it seemed as though nobody in the Taixu Sect had heard of this news.

The entire Taixu Sect, including the higher tiers and the lower tiers, remained completely indifferent. It seemed as though they had been warned not to speak of it.

Luo Yunyang had a considerable status within the Taixu Sect. In fact, he was already viewed as a Taiyi Yuan Venerate even though he had yet to become one. That was why he had a considerably comfortable life there.

He was only slightly anxious about being unable to quickly increase his powers in a short time.

“Senior Brother, Elder Longhuai requests to have a meeting with you.” Luo Yunyang had been perusing a diagram in the scripture repository of the Taixu Sect and pondering how he could transform it into a treasure he could use in the 36 Great Cosmoses.

Elder Longhuai?

Luo Yunyang knew that Elder Longhuai was in charge of the everyday affairs of the Taixu Sect. While he might not be someone with an extremely high status, he was an important figure in the Taixu Sect.

Luo Yunyang had never had any disputes with this elder. What could the agenda of this meeting be?

“Did the elder mention what this is about?” Luo Yunyang asked the younger disciple who had come to deliver the message.

“The elder did not give me any other instructions other than to pass on this message.” The young disciple, who had not even attained the Taishi Yuan Venerate level, answered honestly.

“I shall not keep the elder waiting. Lead the way!” Luo Yunyang nodded.

The young disciple acknowledged this and led Luo Yunyang into a massive hall. Dozens of people were standing outside, waiting in line.

Based on their clothes, these were disciples with varying levels of seniority within the Taixu Sect that dealt with different affairs.

“Greetings, Senior Brother Luo.” One of the disciples greeted him in reverence when he saw Luo Yunyang approaching.

“Senior Brother Luo, the elder has instructed us to lead you directly into the hall when you arrive. He has already waited a while for your arrival.” One of the Taichu Yuan Venerate disciples hastily approached Luo Yunyang.

Luo Yunyang recognized this disciple. Back during Boundless Taixu, he had been one of those who had chased after him. He never would have expected this man to be a disciple of Elder Longhuai. Luo Yunyang smiled and nodded before following this person into the giant hall.

Inside the hall, Elder Longhuai was intently listening to a Taichu Yuan Venerate reporting on something. Elder Longhuai didn’t have a large build but he gave off an intelligent, competent vibe.

“You may leave now.” He beckoned to the disciple when he saw Luo Yunyang enter.

The disciple did not feel comfortable being interrupted but he did not dare go against the will of his elder. Thus, he respectfully took his leave.

“Yunyang, please take a seat. I requested an audience with you because I need your help with something,” Elder Longhuai said as he stood up.

While he spoke, he waved his hand and a map appeared in the sky. It was a map of the Sacred East Sky Continent.

“Yunyang, the Divine Sky and Wind Valley over here is one of the strategic places of the Taixu Sect. It is currently being managed by one of the outer sect disciples of the Tian Family.

“Today, the Tian Family reported that a demon appeared in the valley and they were unable to handle it. Therefore, they have asked for the help of a powerhouse of the sect to subdue this demon.

“I am currently making preparations for the grand banquet and can’t find the time to leave. I also wouldn’t feel assured if I were to send anyone else their way. Hence, I was hoping that I could trouble you to make a trip to the Divine Sky and Wind Valley.”

Luo Yunyang looked surprised as he studied the map of the Divine Sky and Wind Valley. He knew very well that the Divine Sky and Wind Valley was no ordinary place.

Even though the Sacred Venerate had defeated numerous strong opponents in Boundless Taixu a long time ago, There were still many top powerhouses beyond Boundless Taixu who were not happy that the Sacred Venerate had control over the Vast Sky Sacred Realm.

Amongst these people was the Sky-Wrecking Great Sage of the Divine Sky and Wind Valley!

There was no official record in the Taixu Sect of the way the Sky-Wrecking Great Sage had been killed. The only recorded information was that the Sky-Wrecking Great Sage had been killed in the Divine Sky and Wind Valley for going against the Sacred Venerate.

Prior to his brutal death, using his primordial spirit as a catalyst, he had made the entire cultivation base within his body explode.

That was why the Taixu Sect had not enjoyed any benefits for killing the Sky-Wrecking Great Sage. However, the Divine Sky and Wind Valley had become a wasteland ever since the essence of the Sky-Wrecking Great Sage had dissipated.

Even Taiyi Yuan Venerates who trained there sometimes suffered Qi Deviation and got killed due to the continuous absorption of energy in the valley.

Ever since the Divine Sky and Wind Valley had become a wasteland, people had slowly realized that even though it was hard for outsiders to absorb the spiritual essence in the Divine Sky and Wind Valley, the spiritual essence in the valley allowed them to develop a divine crystal within their bodies.

Besides his powerful energy, there were also fragmented sky laws that the Sky-Wrecking Great Sage used to wield.

Even though these fragments were extremely minute and separated, some people considered them valuable and wanted their benefits.

When the Taixu Sect realized this issue, it immediately sealed up the Divine Sky and Wind Valley. Every few thousand years, they would enter it once to harvest these fragments. Every single harvest would help the martialists of the Taixu Sect improve their abilities vastly.

However, people would always get into a bloody scruffle every time this opportunity presented itself. After all, this did not happen often. Even numerous peak Yuan Monarchs would join the fight for this opportunity.

Right now, this opportunity had landed into the hands of Luo Yunyang.

Luo Yunyang was unsure why such a great opportunity had been bestowed on him even though he had not tried to fight for it. “I sincerely thank you for this opportunity, Uncle-Master,” Luo Yunyang said after hesitating slightly.

“This work is for the sake of the sect. There is nothing to thank me for. Yunyang, when you are free in the future, you may come over to have a chat with me. Of course, you should also come over when there are other matters involved.”

After Luo Yunyang took his leave, a mirror appeared in the hands of Elder Longhuai. Chunyu Tianxing’s face appeared in the mirror.

“Senior Brother Tianxing, I have done what you asked of me. Luo Yunyang will enter the Divine Sky and Wind Valley in exactly ten days. The demon hiding within the Divine Sky and Wind Valley possesses quite a large amount of Sky-Wind Divine Crystals. Even Yuan Monarchs would go crazy if they saw such an amount of them!

“If it was not for Senior Brother, I would have even considered heading down personally to kill the demon in the Divine Sky and Wind Valley!

“I will always remember this favor Junior Brother did for me. Even though the demon from the Divine Sky and Wind Valley might guarantee bountiful rewards for whoever goes there, it is still worthwhile for an opponent like Luo Yunyang,” Chunyu Tianxing replied with a sigh.

“After all, Uncle-Master Shending only accepted one disciple!”

“He is not only strong but also pretty lucky. He hasn’t just been blessed with a good father but also with a son who is extremely gifted. Nobody in their right mind would want to offend him.” Elder Longhuai thought to himself.

“It would be good if we could resolve this issue properly.”

“That is why I will have to trouble you to accidentally reveal this matter to him once he gets to the Divine Sky and Wind Valley,” Chunyu Tianxing replied with a smile.
