Thinking about Bi 'an, it was hard for me to be happy on the fat man's big day. I smiled mechanically as I finished my work as a witness. I didn't feel much joy until the wedding was over.
The next morning, before the joyous atmosphere in the Medicine King Valley had dissipated, Nangong knocked on my door and told me that the clansmen were already waiting in the front hall.
There was no need for him to say anything. I could guess that the Mountain and Sea Realm would be opening in a few days.
Knowing this, I didn't ask anything and followed Nangong to the front hall.
The fat man and his wife had changed into regular clothes and were also sitting in the front hall.
Seeing me come, the people in the room stood up and greeted me.
After I sat down, Bai Ling led the group and bowed to me. "Sage, please lead us to the Mountain and Sea Realm to welcome our people."
I had already expected this, so I wasn't surprised. However, the scene in front of me moved me, and I felt like I was guiding the world.
I lifted my eyes and swept my gaze across the crowd. Everyone looked excited as they waited for my response.
However, I didn't see Wuyue. It seemed that she hadn't found the Fuxi Zither yet.
However, since Nangong had decided to leave, he must have made preparations. I guessed that once Wuyue got the Fuxi Zither, she would come looking for us. I didn't need to worry about that.
Since that was the case, I called for everyone to get up and set off.
Everyone responded in a loud voice and made way for him.
Nangong and I walked out of the room, but just as we stepped out of the door, we saw a figure kneeling behind the door.
I looked down and saw that it was Liu Ruxu.
I didn't know why he was doing this, but after asking, I learned that he was worried about Wuyue's situation.
Wuyue hadn't returned yet, and we had already set off. Once Wuyue got the Fuxi Zither, she would come looking for us, so he asked me to bring him with me so that he could see Wuyue as soon as possible.
The couple had deep feelings for each other, so I naturally wouldn't refuse Liu Ruxu's request. I nodded and let Liu Ruxu return to Xiang Liu's pouch.
After dealing with this matter, everyone flew out of the Medicine King Valley. However, we didn't bring all our clansmen on this trip. Everyone below the Celestial Master stayed in the Medicine King Valley, including Uncle Lin.
After leaving Yaowang Mountain, we took a plane to Jiaodong. According to Nangong, our destination was the Yellow Sea.
When Nangong told me about this, I couldn't help but feel suspicious. Could it be that the Mountain and Sea Realm is located in the Bohai Sea?
I once asked Nangong about this, but he kept his mouth shut and told me that I would know when the time came.
He had always been like that. I didn't ask further and put the matter aside.
However, when I mentioned the Bohai Sea, I couldn't help but think of Mount Flowing Waves. That place had a savage aura that was very similar to the Mountain and Sea Realm.
However, I know that the Mountain and Sea Realm has been sealed for thousands of years, and no one has been able to enter. Perhaps Billow Mountain was sealed at the same time as the Mountain and Sea Realm.
It took several hours to travel from Bashu to Jiaodong. When the plane landed, it was already noon.
As soon as I got off the plane, I sensed many Daoist auras in the surroundings. Presumably, the people from the three sects had also arrived in Jiaodong.
However, things are different now. We have a common goal, so we will temporarily put aside our past enmity.
Moreover, the people with me have extraordinary strength, so I don't fear them.
After leaving the airport, we headed to the nearest pier, intending to find a few fishing boats to go out to sea.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by someone on the way.
The person was wearing a Daoist robe and only had a cultivation base of Shi Yao.
He told us that there was a roadblock in front of us and that we couldn't pass, so we should turn back.
This person looked unfamiliar, and I had never seen him before.
However, from his clothes, it was obvious that he was a cultivator from a Daoist temple.
I opened the car door and walked towards him. When I was in front of him, I asked, "Where do you live?"
This person was only at Shi Yao, so he naturally couldn't sense my aura. Thus, his tone was somewhat irritated. It was obvious that he thought I was an ordinary person.
He waved his hand at me. "This matter has nothing to do with you. The road ahead has been sealed. Leave now."
Then, he ignored me and walked towards the temporary pavilion on the side of the roadblock.
The Daoist and Buddhist sects were indeed the strongest powers in China to be able to create such a scene.
Since that was the case, I didn't intend to be entangled with him. I signaled for everyone to get off the car and fly towards the pier.
Since this place was sealed, it was obvious that no ordinary person would be here. There was no need to be wary of anything.
The Daoist from before naturally noticed the commotion behind him. He turned around and looked at us with a dumbfounded expression as he watched us leave.
After a while, we arrived at the pier. Unexpectedly, there wasn't a single ship here. It seemed that all the ships here had been robbed.
It was a bit troublesome. It was a few hundred li away. Nangong and I were fine and could still endure it.
However, the people behind us all had cultivation bases, and it was inevitable that they would be exhausted after flying for a few hundred li.
Just as I was frowning, a cargo ship sailed towards the shore from the fog.
The moment the ship appeared, I sensed a familiar aura. It was Han Wennan.
After the ship docked, he came out of the cabin and landed in front of me.
Without waiting for me to ask, he signaled for me to bring everyone to board the ship. From his appearance, it seemed that he had come to welcome us.
Since that was the case, I didn't exchange pleasantries with him and boarded the ship with my clansmen.
I thought that I would see the elders of the Han family here, but I didn't expect to see only Han Wennan on the ship.
Han Wennan seemed to have noticed my puzzled expression and told me that the Han family had already arrived. Later on, he knew that I would also be here, so he sailed the ship alone and waited for me here.
After listening to Han Wennan's words, I nodded slightly and found an empty room to rest.
I didn't know how much time had passed, but Han Wennan knocked on the door. I thought that we had arrived, but he unexpectedly said that he had something to discuss with me.
His calm face didn't give me any clues. I simply stopped guessing and asked him what he wanted to discuss with me.
After listening to me, his face immediately became gloomy. He asked, "You should know the relationship between the Ten Great Divine Tools and the World of Immortals, right?"
Of course I knew about it, but I didn't know why Han Wennan suddenly brought it up.
However, after thinking about it, I realized that there was half a Nuwa Stone in Han Wennan's heart. Could it be that he wanted to talk to me about this?
While he was thinking, Han Wennan had already taken off his shirt, pointed at the colorful stone on his chest and said, "I only found out some time ago that this stone is the Nuwa Stone, one of the Ten Great Divine Weapons.
The elders of the clan told me that if I want to open the Mountain and Sea Realm, I must gather all of the Ten Great Divine Tools.
I pondered for a long time before I understood that the Nuwa Stone in my body must be taken out.
However, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I will really fall into the Nine Underworlds. "
I had already guessed what Han Wennan was talking about. However, I knew that with Han Wennan's temperament, he wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice himself for the benefit of the clan. Moreover, he was the Patriarch of the Han family, so he naturally had to consider the bigger picture.
Since that was the case, why did he want to talk to me about this?
Just as I was about to ask, Han Wennan opened his mouth and said, "I'm not afraid of sacrificing myself. The elders of the clan promised me that if someone in the clan was lucky enough to ascend, they would reconstruct my fleshly body.
However, the Han family isn't the strongest in the Metaphysics Society, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to obtain such a lucky chance.
In the future, if the Han family offends us in any way, I hope that Brother Zhou will give me some face and be magnanimous. "
I do have some grudges with the Han family. Back in the ancestral land of Mount Wen, the Han family's Ancestors attacked me.
Earlier, I predicted that after the Mountain and Sea Realm, the people of Daoist Qi wouldn't stop hunting down the Magi. Presumably, Han Wennan had also considered this.
Based on my current strength, there was no one under the Yang Spirit Ascension who could be a match for me. It was normal for Han Wennan to be worried.
Han Wennan's words were the same as his last words. Although I felt bad, the Mountain and Sea Realm was a matter of great importance, and I couldn't give up on it just because of Han Wennan.
Since he had entrusted me with this task, I had no choice but to agree.
Seeing that I had agreed, he squeezed out an unsightly smile, put on his clothes, and then took his leave.
As I watched him leave, I sighed and opened my mouth, but didn't know what to say.
A few hours later, I sensed the fluctuations of Daoist Qi in the area. From their auras, I could tell that they had cultivation bases above the seal. Presumably, we had arrived at our destination.
When I opened the door, I saw Nangong coming out of his room. He stood in front of me, but didn't say anything. Instead, he motioned for me to follow him to the deck.
When we reached the deck, the Magi were all there. When they saw me, they all rose to their feet.
Nangong and I exchanged a glance, then led the others up into the clouds.
In less than a few seconds, we landed steadily above the clouds.
As soon as I landed, I noticed that the area was already crowded with people.
There were many Daoist priests and monks in disguise. I hadn't had much contact with them, so I only recognized the people from Mount Longhu and Mount Lao. As for the monks, I had never seen them before.
Besides them were the people from the Metaphysics Society. I looked around and saw that their leader was Yang Shilong, who I had met many times in the past. From where he stood, it seemed that he was the current president of the Metaphysics Society.
Behind him were the people from the Han family, the Lu family, and the Zhang family.
There were many young faces among them. It seemed that in recent years, there had been quite a few outstanding youths rising to prominence.
