Everyone returned to their respective residences, packed their stuff, and returned to the Taixuan Hall. When everyone was present, Taoist Xuan Tian and Head of Seven Branch Veins walked out of the palace.
Followed behind the Taoist Xuan Tian and the Head of Seven Branch Veins was Dan Chenzi leading the team this time, a terrifying expert who was only one step away from breaking through to the Void Prying Stage.
From this, it could be seen how much importance the higher ups of the Taixuan Sect had placed on this trip. Even in the entire Taixuan Sect, there were not many cultivators that cultivated Ninth Layer of Mortal Separating Stage.
When Gu Fei and the others saw Taoist Xuan Tian coming out, they immediately bowed. Taoist Xuan Tian only nodded his head slightly, waved his sleeves, and a scroll shrouded in gold light flew out from his sleeves.
As soon as the scroll was taken out of his sleeve, it instantly stretched out and quickly enlarged, forming a huge scroll that was two zhang wide and forty zhang long. It was both real and illusory, and it floated in the air.
”Scroll of Dao Art?” Gu Fei and Zi Yu looked at each other. Of course they knew what it was, the mysterious expert who killed Gu Fei under Green Spirit Peak that night was the last person to use it to escape, the Scroll of Dao Art.
This kind of scroll with the power of the Dao Art sealed on it was even more precious than the Dao talisman with the power of Dao arts sealed on it.
Even for a big sect like Shangqing Sect, there were not many people willing to spend too much energy to refine Scroll of Dao Art, because it was simply too time-consuming and laborious.
Therefore, Scroll of Dao Art s were rarely seen in the Cultivation Realm.
The middle aged Daoist, Dan Chenzi, leaped up with a single leap, lightly landing on the gigantic Scroll of Dao Art, then, Gu Fei, Lee Lingfeng, Dongfaang Chen, Zi Yu and the rest successively leapt onto the scroll.
The gigantic Scroll of Dao Art became illusionary and illusory, as if it had already turned into nothing. However, when Gu Fei leapt up, he discovered that there was a gentle power beneath his feet that supported him, making him feel as if he was standing on the ground, it was very stable.
After Dan Chenzi and the disciples on top of the scroll bid their farewells to the Taoist Xuan Tian and Head of Seven Branch Veins, Dan Chenzi then pinched the Dao Spell and immediately flew up into the air with the rest of them. The gigantic scroll transformed into a golden cloud that swiftly floated towards the south.
Southern Wasteland. In the southern part of the Soaring Dragon Continent, was an endless wasteland, but there was still a distance of five thousand kilometers from the Taixuan Sect of the Qi Nation. It was already not within the borders of the Qi Nation.
Originally, Taixuan Sect had opened its doors wide after the Nine Veins Conference to accept disciples from the common world. However, because the Heavenly Passage through the void once every sixty years, was related to whether or not Taoist Xuan Tian and Taoist Xuan Tian could break through to the SemiGod Realm, the matter of opening the gate to accept disciples that was once every ten years was temporarily postponed.
However, the outside world did not seem to have received any news yet. Thus, people from all over the Qi Empire, and even the royal families, wealthy merchants, and common citizens of the Central Plains were all escorting the children who were of the same age as they headed towards the Taixuan Mountain.
As far as mortals were concerned, if their children were able to hope to enter the Door of Immortality and cultivate and learn the Dao, then that would be a matter of unparalleled honor and glory. As a result, on the day that the Three Great Dao Sects was accepted as a disciple, a sea of people gathered outside of the Three Great Dao Sects's encampment. Various types of people from the continent gathered together, and were incomparably lively.
”Grandfather, how far is it?” On a mountain path that led to Taixuan Mountain, a tender and clear childish voice came out, and a black carriage drove out from one end of the mountain road.
The fog on the mountain path had yet to dissipate, and in front of the carriage, there was still a bright lantern hanging. Even though it was late in the morning, the fog in the mountain hadn't completely dissipated.
On the carriage, a white-haired old man wearing a cotton jacket held a horsewhip in one hand as he drove the carriage forward. The mountain road was steep, and the carriage was moving too fast.
”Soon, soon!” The old man answered the child in the carriage as he concentrated on driving the carriage. Walking through the mountains, especially driving a horse carriage, was not an easy task.
If one was not careful, they might crash into a tree or a stone on the mountain path. The carriage would topple over, rolling down a deep valley or under a cliff, never to be reborn.
The carriage passed through a dense forest. It was dark in the forest, so it was possible to see the road clearly. The old man was very focused, and soon, the carriage passed through the forest and arrived outside the forest.
The sunlight was a bit blinding. The old man stopped the carriage by the roadside and blew out the lantern hanging in front of the carriage.
”Grandfather!” Why did you stop? ” The curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a jade carving-like child with red lips and white teeth who stuck his head out like a porcelain doll.
”Hehe!” Young Master, let's rest here for a bit, eat something, and then continue on our journey. ” The old man smiled and jumped down from the carriage. He untied a sack from the horse's back and took out some dry rations.
”Hey!” Grandfather quickly look, what is that! ” Suddenly, the child raised his head to look at the sky in shock and loudly said to the old man while pointing to the southern horizon with his little finger.
The white-haired old man looked towards where the child was pointing and saw a golden cloud rushing out of the mountains towards the south.
The golden cloud moved quickly, and soon disappeared into the southern sky.
”That's …” The old man's face was filled with shock. He seemed to have thought of something and was speechless for a long time. He blankly stared at the direction in which the golden cloud disappeared.
