When I arrived at Wang Can's room, I knocked on the door and entered. I found that a large group of people had gathered in the room. Ah Fu and the fat father and son were there. In addition to them, there were five new faces that I had never seen before.
Although I had never seen these people before, the power of insight in my body allowed me to sense that their cultivation was extraordinary.
Although I couldn't find out the details, I could vaguely feel that their cultivation was higher than mine. I even felt that I was facing Ah Fu in front of two of them.
I turned to look at Wang Can and asked, "Who are they?"
Wang Can smiled. He got up and saluted me. Then, he turned to the five people and said, "They are the Sages.
From today on, the Wang family will serve the Holy Spirit Guard and serve the Sages.
You are the servants of the Wang family. You will join the Holy Spirit Guard with the Wang family. In the future, you will serve the Sages as well as the Wang family. Do you understand? "
The five people cupped their hands together and said, "We will remember!"
Then, they turned to me, knelt, and kowtowed. "Greetings, Sages!"
Earlier, Wang Can, Ah Fu, and the others had knelt and kowtowed to me, so I didn't feel so uncomfortable. After nodding, I waved my hand to let them get up.
Then, Wang Can introduced them to me. "These five people are the five servants of the Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth family. They arrived here last night. The Sages were resting, so I didn't take them to disturb them."
I had already guessed who they were. After listening to Wang Can's introduction, I asked them about their realms. Wang Can told me that among the five people, three of them were at the Celestial Master Realm, just one step away from the Yang God Realm. The other two had entered the Yang God Celestial Master Realm, which was similar to Ah Shou and Ah Xi.
Sure enough, there were two Yang God Celestial Masters!
The power of the Wang family was incredible.
Since I had been in contact with Wang Can, I had been very interested in the strength of the Wang family. Before, I could only guess, but now that our relationship had improved, I could ask him about it.
So, I asked Wang Can directly.
As the head of the Wang family, Wang Can was naturally familiar with this matter. He immediately said, "Among the servants of the Wang family, there are currently eight Yang God Celestial Masters and 42 Seal Celestial Masters.
Among the blood relatives, because our Wang family has never been prosperous, since my grandfather's generation, there has been only one bloodline. So far, in Wangwu Cave, there are only two granduncles left. In terms of cultivation, they are above the Yang Spirit. It's just that the two granduncles usually cultivate in seclusion and don't care about worldly affairs.
Wang Can's voice was calm, but I was dumbfounded.
There were dozens of Seal Celestial Masters, and the number of Yang God Celestial Masters was close to double. What was even more terrifying was that there were two granduncles above the Yang God!
I'm afraid that not even all of the metaphysics I know can compare to this kind of strength, right?
The Wangof Wangof the Wangwu Can the Celestial, Celestial Clan members of the strength of the Of the other Can's. in and the Can, the Celestial, they were Can Can of the Heav.
In that case, how powerful would the other Blessed and Heavenly Abodes be?
While I was thinking, I suddenly remembered that Wang Can and Lu Zhenyang had talked about the Blessed Lands in Chiyou's tomb. So, I asked Wang Can about them.
After asking around, we learned that the so-called Spirited Mountain Blessed Land was one of the 72 Blessed Lands of Daoism.
Although the Blessed Lands were hidden in the world and not known to outsiders, some of them were still related to the real world.
The Blessed Lands had been passed down for hundreds of years. After dozens of generations, the family became very large, and it was impossible for all of them to live in the Blessed Lands. So, except for a few families like the Wangs, which had a small population, the rest of the families would send their members to the secular world. Some of these people would cut off contact with their families after they went to the secular world, but most of them would still be related to their families. In the secular world, they would gradually establish a foundation and become a Metaphysical family in the secular world.
Although Lu Zhenyang's Lu family was a family that had risen in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic, the old man of the Lu family was a disciple sent by the Lu family in the Blessed Lands. On his way to prosperity, he had the support of the Blessed Lands, so he had always kept in touch with his family. That was why when Wang Can asked him about the Lu family in the Blessed Lands, Lu Zhenyang told me that it was his family's ancestral court.
After listening to his explanation, I understood. Then, I remembered several Metaphysical families in the Metaphysics Society, including the Han family in Qinling Mountains, the Zhang family in Mount Mang, the Yang family in Chengdu, the Lai family in Lu Liang, and the Xu family in Jinling. "Are they also the peripheral forces of the Blessed Lands?"
I asked Wang Can again, but he didn't know the answer. He only said that the people in the Blessed Lands only cared about the Great Way. Most of them were people who worked hard to cultivate. Although there were conflicts and intrigues between them, they didn't care about the external forces.
What's more, these outer sect disciples were all disciples who had been sent out. Those who were sent out were those whose cultivation talents were deemed to be low by the clan. The elites were all left in the clan, so they were not familiar with the outer sect disciples of other clans.
However, he knew one of them. It was the Zhang family in the Blessed Lands of Mount Mang.
The Wangwu Grotto-Heaven was located on Mount Wangwu, which was located in Jiyuan, Henan Province, next to Luoyang. The Blessed Lands of Mount Mang were located in the northern suburbs of Luoyang, so they were very close to each other. I had heard that the Zhang family in Mount Mang had an external force in the secular world.
Speaking of the Zhang family, I thought of Zhang Kunlun, the fat man from the Metaphysics Association who was known as the Double Pride along with Han Wennan.
He was very powerful, but he kept a low profile. He had been in contact with me many times, but Lu Zhenyang and Han Wennan had always been in contact with me, but he had never worked with me. He was the one I couldn't see through the most.
When Lu Zhenyang and Han Wennan entered the Sacrificial Well for the Blood Sacrifice in the Royal Tomb of the Shang Dynasty, Zhang Kunlun didn't show up. I didn't know what his cultivation was at the moment.
But judging from Han Wennan and Lu Zhenyang's situation, he was probably close to the Celestial Master Realm. Of course, it wasn't impossible for him to become a Celestial Master before me.
I couldn't help but sigh. Before I graduated from college, I didn't know if there were any other cultivators in the world except for Deng Meng. When I went south to Shenzhen and joined the Metaphysics Association, it was as if I had opened the door to a new world. I saw many Xuanmen forces and families. I felt that the world was so big, and those Xuanmen forces and families were the whole world of cultivation.
At that time, I couldn't imagine that what I saw was just the tip of the iceberg. There were more terrifying forces hidden in our world, but they were outside the secular world that we couldn't see.
And the people around me were inextricably linked to these great forces.
It turned out that this was the real world.
After chatting for a while, we had dinner together. Then Wang Can said goodbye to me. Although the Wang family was willing to be the Holy Spirit Guard, he couldn't stay with me all the time.
As the head of the Ten Caves, the Wang family was also a great force. They had a lot of family affairs. After leaving for so many days, they had accumulated a lot of things that Wang Can had to deal with.
I was going to the Green Mountains to find the Fox King Palace, so I wouldn't force Wang Can to stay. After a simple farewell, we parted ways.
Before leaving, Officer Wang told me the specific location of the Wangwu Fairyland. He also invited me to visit the Wangwu Fairyland in three months. At that time, many families in the Blessed and Heavenly Abode would hold the Heavenly Grand Ritual.
The Daoist sacrificial ceremony was called the Taoist sacrificial ceremony, and the Heavenly Grand Ritual was the most important one.
It was a tradition of the families in the Blessed Cave for more than one thousand years. It was held every ten years, and the big families in the Blessed Cave took turns to host it.
During the Heavenly Grand Ritual, in addition to praying for the alignment of the stars, the protection of the people, and the peace of the country, it also defined the ranking of the Blessed Cave.
The reason why the Wangwu Cave was called the head of the Ten Caves was that when Wang Can's father was still alive, the Wang family had taken the first place in the Heavenly Grand Ritual.
This year's Heavenly Grand Ritual would be held in the Wangwu Cave. However, the Wang family wasn't as strong as before. They couldn't compete for the first place, and it was hard to say whether they could keep their position in the Ten Caves or not.
I couldn't provide any help to Wang Can in this kind of competition. After listening to his sad face, I comforted him.
After seeing Wang Can off, the fatty came to me and told me that he had told his father that he would go with me to the Green Mountains. Lin Acheng didn't object.
I turned around and didn't see Lin Acheng. After asking the fatty, I learned that Lin Acheng had left. He said that he had gone back to his hometown.
His hometown … Lin Acheng's hometown was also my hometown.
After burying my parents, I hadn't gone back to my hometown. Now that I thought about it, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.
I thought about it for a while and decided that I should go back to my hometown to pay my respects to my parents during the Zhongyuan Festival. At the same time, I could visit Uncle Lin.
