Zhang Jian’s Yang God Divine Sense constantly enveloped the temple inside, and upon seeing the scene, he merely smiled slightly.
The cultivation path of this white-robed female cultivator should be similar to sects like the Profound Extreme Sect and the Shangqing Sword Sect, with a primary focus on swordsmanship.
Zhang Jian couldn’t quite identify which exact sect she belonged to.
Though his Dao Practice was extraordinarily high, he had no dealings with these sects, and had no record of such a Magical Power energy mechanism in his memory.
After confirming she wasn’t part of any heterodox sect or Zuo Dao, he paid it no mind.
However, in an instant, he noticed a team of Divine Generals flying out from the ground of Haojing City, heading in his direction.
This team of Divine Generals moved in a hurry, disappearing into the earth within moments, their destination heading toward Central Jin Province.
Central Jin Province is near the Capital Region and is a unique state mansion.
It is smaller than ordinary state counties, but larger than some common large counties.
It is located within the Capital Region, holding a very unique position.
After this batch of Divine Generals set out, two more teams of Divine Generals materialized in succession within Haojing City, transforming into Divine Light and heading toward Central Jin Province.
Zhang Jian felt a bit surprised; it seemed that something had happened around Central Jin Province, otherwise the City God Divine Department wouldn’t frequently mobilize troops.
Zhang Jian’s gaze fluctuated, and when the fourth batch of Divine Generals appeared, he casually intercepted the leading Divine General.
With the God-Catching Seal congealed in his hand, in an instant, he brought a Divine General before him.
The Divine General’s face turned shocked and angry, panicked, at the sight of Zhang Jian, his expression froze and he quickly saluted.
"I have met Zhang Scholar!"
He naturally recognized Zhang Jian, who was a well-known figure among the gods of Haojing City, with an aura of Vast Righteous Qi.
Moreover, the City God King had specifically ordered not to disturb the Zhang Mansion, nor to loiter in front of its gates.
This shows how special his status is!
Zhang Jian casually asked:
"What happened in the Capital Region that required such a large mobilization of Divine Soldiers and Generals?"
"To report to Zhang Scholar, Yin Soldiers appeared in Central Jin Province, and His Highness the City God King suspects a cultivator has opened Forbidden Techniques on several battlefields, practicing evil techniques!"
Zhang Jian slightly raised his eyebrows, waved his hand, signaling the Divine General to leave.
The transit of Yin Soldiers is considered a terrifying omen in folklore, and those who encounter it are often spirited away, leaving behind a lifeless land.
His eyes flickered.
Central Jin Province, being the strategic exit of the Capital Region, often becomes a battleground during the end of dynasties, and contains a number of famously ancient battlefields filled with countless buried corpses.
It seems evil cultivators have begun to take notice of them.
"Looks like there’s something to do again!"
Zhang Jian’s expression bore a hint of a smile; it had been a while since he’d moved his muscles, and because of this, he had been abstaining, unable to benefit from the Ancestral Hall.
But Zhang Jian wasn’t in a hurry; eventually, someone would invite him to intervene.
...
At the Champion Scholar’s Mansion, after the first batch of vegetable seeds was distributed, Zhang Jian continued with his second round of testing.
His cultivation was never neglected.
The third True Intent he was comprehending had already successfully condensed.
After mastering the Golden Crow Fission Technique, he directly comprehended the principle of Extreme Yang giving birth to Yin.
He had already cultivated the Taiyin Refining Form Technique to its highest realm, able to manifest the Taiyin Jade Rabbit Dharma Aspect; the circulation of Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit in Yin and Yang made comprehending the True Intent of Yin and Yang not difficult.
However, what Zhang Jian desired was more than just comprehending one Yin-Yang True Intent.
He aimed to perfect the Taiyin Refining Form Technique to the Primordial Spirit level, creating another Primordial Spirit Immortal Technique.
Further merging the Golden Crow and Jade Rabbit might give birth to a powerful Primordial Spirit Immortal Technique based on the True Intent of Yin and Yang.
Yet, for now, Zhang Jian suppressed this thought; his primary focus was the integration of the Map of Mountains and Rivers.
The Map of Mountains and Rivers was his foundational support, and only after truly stepping into the Primordial Spirit Realm would he focus on developing various Immortal Techniques.
After the third Yin-Yang True Intent took shape, Zhang Jian’s gaze shifted to the fourth True Intent, the "Five Elements".
The intergeneration and annihilation of the Five Elements is a necessary course for cultivators from many cultivation sects, requiring an understanding of various foundational Five Elements Techniques Runes to extend into their field of expertise.
Within Zhang Jian’s body are four types of Spirit Roots, primarily metal and fire, followed by wind and thunder.
He lacks wood, earth, and water.
To comprehend the True Intent of the Five Elements, the best approach would be to select a technique related to the Five Elements, incorporating it into the Map of Mountains and Rivers.
Zhang Jian also tried to search the East Study for valuable ancient scripture to see if he could create a Five Elements technique, but after half a month of searching, he abandoned the idea.
Instead, he inadvertently discovered an ancient scripture called the "No-Form Scripture" in a corner of the East Room, based on Ancient Golden Scripture writings, likely a relic from an extinguished sect, beneficial for understanding the True Intent of Illusion and Reality.
Zhang Jian ultimately decided to make a trip to the Tongshan Dao Lineage to see if the sect had any high-tier techniques related to the Five Elements.
Tongshan
The towering Divine Mountain stood amidst the vast ocean, surrounded by chunks of green land resembling grand islands, shrouded in faint mist with a glow of Rune Forbidden Techniques subtly flowing out.
Zhang Jian’s Yang God Manifestation at this time appeared like a blazing sun across the void, its grand momentum startled the cultivators in the Danque Immortal Palace.
Many Yin Spirit Venerables also turned their gaze towards it.
Such Pure Yang Golden Light seemed akin to the return of a Primordial Spirit Master to the sect.
The Demon-slaying Peak stood atop one of the main peaks of the majestic mountain range, its scenery resplendent, hosting many Daoist Temples and inns, with numerous disciples.
In front of the Demon-slaying Peak, Tie Xin Daoist had always been seated on a bluestone practicing, where he also lectured some Inner Sect Disciples about Daoist Techniques. Upon seeing a wheel of golden sun breaking through the sky from afar, his expression changed.
"Pure Yang Golden Light?"
His thoughts fluctuated, presuming it was a Primordial Spirit Master from the Dao Lineage arriving, ready to rise and greet, only to see Zhang Jian’s figure under the blazing sun.
"Uncle Tie Xin!"
"Ah Yu, it’s you..."
Tie Xin Daoist’s eyes were filled with amazement as he looked at Zhang Jian.
"Have you already verified your Primordial Spirit?"
Tie Xin Daoist’s mouth widened in shock, his Dao Heart fluctuating intensely, as he pointed at Zhang Jian, unable to speak.
Zhang Jian noted his expression with a gentle wry smile; he hadn’t intended to show off, but with the Yang God’s Divine Travel, Pure Yang Golden Light Manifestation, it was indeed difficult to conceal his Magical Power.
Of course, difficult did not mean impossible.
This admittedly had an intentional element; having achieved in cultivation, it was necessary to reveal part of it to rationalize asking the elders for assistance, or solicit investment.
How would the ancestors trust him with treasures otherwise!
There always needed to be some tangible demonstration for others to see.
Pure Yang Yang God presented the most straightforward transformation.
Facing Tie Xin Daoist’s shocked eyes, he laughed and said,
"I haven’t, just by some fortuitous event, the Yin Spirit was transformed into the Yang Spirit early!"
However, this only stirred Tie Xin Daoist even more.
Transforming the Yin Spirit into the Yang Spirit early is a rare fortune, smoothing out most obstacles before ascending to the Primordial Spirit level.
Tie Xin Daoist was so envious his eyes almost bulged out.
His mind held only one thought: he must immediately notify True Monarch Zhanmo!
