"Since then, our Taizhen Sect has lost its inheritance in this regard."
"Now, apart from the few ancient techniques we have mastered, most of the techniques and inheritances have nothing to do with the Jizhen Sect."
"If it weren't for this encounter, I would have had a hard time discovering this ancient book hidden in the secret place of the sect. I'm afraid no one would ever know about this."
Master Zhiyang sighed with a heavy tone.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Yun asked:
"Regarding the contents of the sealing array, what guidance does your book provide? Have you found a way to resolve this crisis?"
Master Zhiyang responded:
"While the sealing described in the book is of great importance and permanent responsibility, the specific details are still vague and do not provide sufficient detailed guidance."
"Fortunately, it revealed the basic structure of the sealing array to us."
"The three of us joined forces with a group of array masters, and after years of research, we finally found a possible way to repair the array."
Taoist Ning stated seriously.
“However, this method not only requires the gathering of many high-level cultivators, but also requires someone to go deep into the depths of the demonic energy and bury the array plate at the predetermined depth of the seabed.”
"This is why we invited Fellow Daoist Chen to come. Only with the help of your Divine Thunder to protect us can we effectively resist the erosion of evil spirits and ensure the safety of in-depth exploration."
Wei Wuya explained calmly.
When Chen Yun heard this, his brows slightly frowned.
"According to the descriptions of fellow Taoists, it seems that this method has been studied for some time."
"However, Chen has only recently returned to Luoyun Sect."
"Before that, I wonder how you fellow Taoists plan to send the array plate into the depths of the demonic energy?"
Chen Yun relaxed his brows and asked calmly.
After hearing this, Wei Wuya and Master Zhiyang paused for a moment and exchanged glances with each other.
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Chen knows everything very well."
"Indeed, we considered another option."
"The original plan was to use several magic weapons from various major forces to gather a cultivator who practices evil-avoiding techniques and try to enter the demonic energy."
"However, the demonic energy below is too strong. This method only has a 40% to 50% success rate, and the risk of failure is extremely high."
"In comparison, Fellow Daoist Chen's Divine Thunder of Exorcism is specifically designed to counter evil spirits. It will be a piece of cake for you to carry out this task."
Master Zhiyang explained with a smile.
"I see! This method is also a good idea." Chen Yun said with a calm smile.
"As a citizen of Tiannan, I should accept this mission without hesitation."
"However, before making a promise, can Chen observe the power of the endless demonic energy first? I am unwilling to take any risks."
Chen Yun's eyes flickered, and then he said so.
"As it should be. Right now, the old demon He Huan is stationed in front of the whirlpool, paying close attention to the movement of the demonic energy."
"Fellow Daoist Chen, why not go check it out right away? After all, the sooner the seal is restored, the sooner we can feel at ease."
Master Zhiyang agreed without hesitation, and Wei Wuya also nodded in agreement without any objection.
Seeing his two colleagues' statements, Chen Yun felt relieved. It seemed that there was no conspiracy in this matter and it would most likely be resolved smoothly.
So, the three of them immediately left Master Zhiyang's cave and rushed towards the huge spiritual source that Chen Yun sensed.
Once they left Linggui Island, they transformed into three dazzling rainbows and rushed towards the west.
After traveling thousands of miles, I finally saw a group of hazy light shining on the distant sea. At the same time, a large group of colorful lights gathered in the sky.
This inverted giant funnel-like sight is amazing, with the bottom invisibly connected to the dazzling light group below, forming an extremely rare and beautiful spectacle.
When Chen Yun saw the scenery in front of him, a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
With his powerful spiritual perception ability, Chen Yun could clearly feel both the white light balls and the colorful rays of light.
There is rich and extremely pure spiritual energy from heaven and earth flowing inside. Even the top-level spiritual veins are slightly inferior in comparison.
"This must be the mysterious place called the 'Great Whirlpool'!"
Chen Yun whispered to himself.
"Indeed, this is the 'Great Whirlpool'. The old demon Hehuan is currently meditating on the reef in the distance."
"We need to rush over to meet him and discuss the specific matters."
Following the direction pointed by Master Zhiyang, we indeed found a burly man in a black robe in the distance.
He was sitting on a reef more than ten miles away from the ball of light, resting with his eyes closed.
This person is undoubtedly the old demon Hehuan!
When Chen Yun's spiritual perception got closer, the old demon Hehuan's eyes, which had been closed, suddenly opened and emitted a sharp light.
He glanced in the direction where Chen Yun was, then he suddenly stood up and suddenly disappeared into the sky.
Seeing this, Chen Yun's companions immediately drove their light of escape to the corresponding location quickly.
"Fellow Daoist Hehuan, Fellow Daoist Chen has arrived here. It looks like we will be able to successfully repair this magic circle in a few days."
After rushing to the side of the old demon He Huan, Master Zhi Yang called out with a smile. In addition to Chen Yun, Wei Wuya also appeared one after another.
"Oh? It would be great if Fellow Daoist Chen could personally help. With a magical skill like the Thunder of Exorcism, we will surely be able to complete the mission successfully."
The old demon Hehuan did not smile, but just glanced at Chen Yun indifferently and said, seeming a little indifferent to him.
Faced with such a situation, Chen Yun felt a little surprised at first, but after thinking for a moment, he understood the reason and couldn't help but smile.
The evil-repelling divine thunder is specially designed to restrain magic power, and it is undoubtedly a great deterrent to those magic practitioners who practice ancient magic power.
As a leader in the magic world, the old demon Hehuan naturally would not show too much enthusiasm towards him.
The last time Master Zhiyang met him, he was quite respectful, perhaps in an attempt to win his support to fight against the evil forces.
Although he felt somewhat helpless, Chen Yun did not take it too seriously.
With his current strength, even if the old demon Hehuan really wanted to kill him, he was confident enough to ensure his own safety.
Besides, he always believed that this old demon would not make such a stupid decision.
Upon learning that Chen Yun wanted to take this opportunity to observe the surrounding demonic energy, the old demon Hehuan frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, he finally nodded in agreement.
So, under the guidance of the three people, Chen Yun followed closely and flew towards the spectacular group of light in front.
As the distance got closer, Chen Yun could see the real scene of the so-called "big whirlpool" more clearly.
On the vast sea surface, a huge black hole with a diameter of hundreds of feet suddenly appeared before our eyes.
Although it was called a "whirlpool", there was no seawater in its core area. Instead, streams of pure white spiritual energy continued to flow out, rising up.
Under the sunlight, it transformed into a large patch of gorgeous rays of light, almost covering half of the sky, which was beautiful beyond words.
Taking a deep breath of the slightly moist sea breeze and feeling the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth around him, Chen Yun couldn't help but be shocked.
This "maelstrom" has gone through a long time since its birth.
If such a huge amount of spiritual energy can be released every day, the total amount of spiritual energy lost will be simply incalculable!
Unable to see the true appearance deep in the vortex, Chen Yun pondered for a moment, and then a green light flashed on his body.
The whole person instantly appeared high in the sky above the center of the vortex, ready to look down and find out what was going on.
However, just at the moment when Chen Yun showed up.
He immediately felt an extremely powerful suction force descending from the sky, causing his body to fall downwards involuntarily.
Then, he felt an irresistible force grabbing him tightly and pulling him down fiercely.
Chen Yun was startled, but his protective aura flashed quickly, instantly forming a layer of green light shield that enveloped him completely.
Thanks to his profound cultivation foundation, he regained his composure after falling only a few feet, and remained as steady as a rock.
At this moment, Chen Yun looked down with peace of mind, with a faint blue light flashing in his eyes.
This scene suddenly changed the expressions of masters such as Zhiyang who were watching Chen Yun from the outside.
“Brother Zhiyang, I vaguely remember that last time, Elder Ma from your sect, who was a strong man in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, did not use any magic weapon.”
“But it could only fly over this place with great difficulty. However, it seemed that it was only after falling for more than ten feet that it was able to stabilize its body.”
Wei Wuya turned to look at Master Zhiyang and spoke in a serious tone.
"Indeed, the attraction at the center of the vortex is so strong that even if we are unprepared, we will be shaken by it."
The Taoist priest also showed a look of surprise and answered slowly.
"It seems that my guess was correct. I noticed earlier that the technique that Fellow Daoist Chen practiced seemed to be quite unique, and it was obviously beyond the level of cultivators of the same level."
"Now that he has successfully advanced to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, his magic power is extremely pure, far beyond that of ordinary people."
"It really makes me curious, what kind of magical formula did he practice that has such a remarkable effect."
Wei Wuya smacked his lips in admiration and said with envy.
"I'm afraid this question is difficult to answer. Although some top-level techniques can indeed greatly increase a cultivator's mana, they are either extremely difficult to practice or have serious flaws."
"Sometimes the loss outweighs the gain. As for whether Fellow Daoist Chen is practicing this kind of technique, I am not sure."
Master Zhiyang hesitated for a moment and finally gave an ambiguous answer.
The old demon Hehuan on the side remained silent, but his face had become as gloomy as water.
At this moment, Chen Yun's figure in the sky trembled slightly, and a green light flashed by. He returned to the side of the two cultivators Zhiyang and Baimei.
"The spiritual energy in this vortex is truly astonishing. It has such a strong attraction just above the sea level. It is hard to imagine what kind of dangers one will face if one goes deep into the seabed."
Chen Yun said in a calm tone.
"Because of the thousands of feet of spiritual energy blocking it, the divine consciousness cannot penetrate below. If you want to detect the demonic energy, you can only go deep into the bottom."
“Although the pressure below is not as irresistible as we deliberately spread, you still need to be more cautious when entering.”
"In addition, there are a large number of small spiritual energy whirlpools in the vortex. Once you are caught in one of them, you may encounter unexpected events."
"Therefore, I am willing to go with Fellow Daoist Chen for safety reasons."
Master Zhiyang seemed to have thought deeply before saying this.
"Brother Zhiyang, it is naturally a great honor for me to be able to travel with Chen. Thank you, Brother Zhiyang."
When Chen Yun heard this, he was overjoyed, and the worries in his heart disappeared.
Then, Chen Yun and Master Zhiyang turned into two dazzling stars, and sank into the surging vortex, disappearing from everyone's sight.
In a blink of an eye, only Wei Wuya and Hehuan Old Demon were left on the sea. They stared silently at the center of the vortex. For a moment, no one spoke.
"Brother Wei, what do you think of Fellow Daoist Chen from Luoyun Sect?"
After a long time, the old demon Hehuan suddenly asked without any warning.
"What do you think? What do you mean by that, fellow Taoist?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Wuya smiled and responded leisurely.
"Hey! Brother Wei, why do you have to pretend to be ignorant when you know the truth? I really don't believe that you have no fear of this guy."
"At such a young age, he has already entered the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and possesses a variety of powerful magical powers."
"Once he enters the late Nascent Soul stage, won't there be no place for people like us to stand in the southern part of the world?"
The burly man in a black cloak said coldly.
"Haha! My opinion on this matter is slightly different from Brother Hehuan's."
Wei Wuya glanced at the old demon Hehuan and said with a smile.
"Since it's different, why don't you speak freely, Brother Wei?"
"Does your Excellency think that after this boy enters the late Nascent Soul stage, Brother Wei is still confident that he can suppress him?"
The old demon Hehuan asked in a gloomy tone.
"Suppress? Why should I suppress? I am the oldest among the three great monks. Even if I still have more than a hundred years to live, I will eventually turn into dust."
"Even if he is really the reincarnation of an immortal, it will be difficult for him to break through again within a hundred years."
"In that case, no matter how advanced his cultivation becomes in the future, whether he can dominate the entire Tiannan, what does it have to do with me?"
Wei Wuya said calmly.
"Brother Wei, are you really willing to watch the power you have worked so hard to build fall into the hands of others?"
"If Your Excellency is willing to join forces with me, I can even make appropriate compromises on certain issues."
The old demon Hehuan narrowed his eyes and asked tentatively.
"I have no intention of getting involved in the dispute. Besides, don't you think, Brother Hehuan, that it is too late to plan this matter now?"
"If this child is in the early stage of Nascent Soul, and you are willing to pay the corresponding price, perhaps I will consider it."
"However, his current strength has not yet surpassed ours, and his magical powers are not necessarily inferior to ours."
"I don't want to create an enemy of equal status to myself, and I don't want to bring endless trouble to the sect."
"Fellow Daoist He Huan, please do not forget that for beings like us, it is almost impossible to completely destroy them." (End of this chapter)
