#265 - I, Zuo Youyan, am the attendant of the Blood Demon Lord
Although Duan Yulin felt something was wrong, she still signed her name.
When dawn broke, the gate opened, and Yang Qi sent her out.
Afterward, Shu Ci led her away.
They walked all the way past Peak Outside Peak to the gate of the Cangmu Sect.
Then, Shu Ci removed the seal on her body in front of the Mountain Guarding Senior Brother.
This was to prevent any accidents from happening.
Duan Yulin felt the restored power within her body, slightly puzzled.
She looked at Shu Ci and asked, "Are you really letting me leave?"
Shu Ci nodded and smiled, "The leader always keeps his word. If you don't play tricks with him, he certainly won't deliberately target you.
The others who wrote but didn't leave were all playing tricks.
Only you didn't, so it was easy for you to enter, and it's easy for you to leave."
Duan Yulin was somewhat stunned, but she still asked, "Then, I'm leaving?"
Shu Ci smiled and said, "For now, it's best not to participate in the sect's conflicts. If you do participate and get caught, you can come to our First Institute.
We in the First Institute treat people with sincerity."
Duan Yulin didn't say much but quickly left, constantly worried that someone would come after her.
But the truth was, no one did.
So, after running for a long time, she finally confirmed that she was free.
Gu An nodded slightly upon hearing Shu Ci's report, "Okay, let the remaining bald guy write too. After he finishes, show it to me. If it's valuable enough, he can leave too."
After a pause, Gu An added, "Go and consult Zhao Qingshan; he should be able to help you."
"Thank you, Leader," Shu Ci nodded earnestly.
She was almost certain that the leader knew her identity.
And he also knew her cultivation level.
He just never revealed it.
But knowing her identity and still letting her assist Pang Wen in managing the Second Team and the First Institute made her feel somewhat at a loss.
He even wanted her to improve her cultivation.
This was even more worrying.
But so far, she could be sure that the leader had no ulterior motives towards her.
"Let them all improve their cultivation first. If their cultivation is too weak, there will be a lot of trouble in the future," Gu An casually instructed before letting her leave.
These people, for now, could all be used.
He really didn't have that much energy.
After all, the Second Team's tasks were numerous during normal times.
And during abnormal times, the First Institute's tasks would be heavy.
Besides, now he could let people write down techniques and cultivation methods, but later on, it would easily become repetitive.
He would have to use other things to redeem people.
In the end, he would definitely have to contact other sects.
Thus, the Second Team's people would be busy again.
Higher cultivation would naturally make things much more convenient.
It was just uncertain how long the Six Institutes would remain.
After all, this was a contest, and a contest would have results.
This matter was still too far off, and he didn't think about it too much.
Instead, he was waiting for Dongfang Lingyun's reply.
Last night, he went out and set up a Blood Fiend Formation in a certain place, using the Divine Monarch's secret method to contact Dongfang Lingyun.
He directly asked for the great secret she possessed and a set of sealing methods.
This was what the Blood Demon Divine Monarch said: the Eight Tone Divine Monarch could use formations and music to silently plant a seal in a person's body.
Even if someone knew, unless they closed their five senses or resisted with their mind, they would be sealed.
It sounded very powerful, so Gu An also wanted it.
Of course, such a price was obviously high.
But the Blood Demon Divine Monarch was already an arrogant person, so asking for more was reasonable.
Asking for too little would make him seem guilty.
This was what the Blood Demon Divine Monarch himself said.
Near Linghua Valley.
A woman carrying a heavy sword and holding a jade flute walked on the road. Her features were delicate, like a girl next door. She looked at the sky and sighed with emotion, "Is there still no news coming back from that side?
Didn't you say that the people of the Divine Monarch Palace are all very powerful?
You also said that you are the goddess of the Divine Monarch Palace, and any male Divine Monarch, not to mention rewards, would come over immediately even if it meant sacrificing everything.
How long has it been now? They're not even paying attention to you.
Are you really a goddess?"
"If you can't speak properly, you can just not speak," a cold voice echoed in the woman's mind.
The woman looked at the jade flute in her hand and said, "Now you嫌弃 me for talking? Who was it who couldn't wait for me to take you away before?
No wonder you've been single for so long.
Unlike me, I've only been single for a few decades."
"If it weren't for me, how would you have been able to escape the pursuit?" the cold voice replied again, then said, "Times have changed. Other Divine Monarchs may not know about me.
After all, there may be new Divine Monarchs after my death.
But wait a little longer, even if he doesn't have it, he will definitely find someone to contact you."
The woman wanted to say something, but suddenly she froze.
Then she confirmed the location, "There is, there is, let's go take a look."
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman leaped up and quickly disappeared into the sky.
The next morning.
She landed in front of a mountain, finding a letter on a rock.
She picked it up and carefully examined it, saying, "Hey, the news is here, but what is he doing?
Is he so afraid of dealing with you?"
"Open it and take a look. Having the guidance of the Eight Tone Talent will be good for both of us.
If you don't want to be hunted down for the rest of your life, then do your job properly," the cold voice said.
"Is your family selling sesame seed cakes? Why do you speak so nicely? The people of the Dongfang family are looking for me everywhere, and the people of my sect are also looking for me everywhere.
What a headache," the woman said as she opened the letter to examine it.
Soon, she frowned, then put away the letter and sighed, "The name Dongfang Lingyun is really well-known. It seems I can't continue to use this name."
"What does the letter say?" the cold voice asked.
"Nothing much, just stating that he has heard of the name Dongfang Lingyun, and wants to know what great secret I know, and he also wants a set of Eight Tone Sealing Methods.
Leaving these things will allow me to know where there are people with Eight Tone Talent.
These conditions are really outrageous. You, the goddess, really have no face at all," the woman said, then added, "By the way, I shouldn't be called Dongfang Lingyun anymore. It's all your fault. If you hadn't said I was Dongfang Lingyun, how could I have been bullied like this?"
"Then what do you want to be called?" the cold voice asked again.
The woman thought for a moment and said, "Dongfang Changli."
"Real name?"
"True or false, what's there to care about? Anyway, I'm not called Dongfang Lingyun anymore. I didn't expect Dongdao Ancient Province to already know this name.
They really just have to catch me."
"Dongfang Changli?"
"Here," Dongfang Changli replied with a smile.
The cold voice said, "Could that really be your real name?"
Dongfang Changli smiled and waved the jade flute in her hand, "You're still called the Eight Tone Divine Monarch, is a name that important? Aren't we all me after using it for a long time?
It's just that me at that point in time.
But without a doubt, I'm beautiful and make people think about me."
"Did the other party indicate which Divine Monarch he is?" the Eight Tone Divine Monarch asked.
"Zuo Youyan, a servant under the Blood Demon Divine Monarch, have you heard of him?" Dongfang Changli asked.
"Blood Demon Divine Monarch? It's him," the Eight Tone Divine Monarch was slightly surprised, "I've heard of him, his Blood Transformation Great Art is superb, a demon that was opposed by countless people back then.
He was hunted down by the strongest for hundreds of years, and finally disappeared without a trace.
Even approaching his body, the bloodline may fluctuate.
Be careful.
Even his servants must be dealt with carefully.
Also, what are you planning to do?"
Dongfang Changli pouted and said, "You've described him as so powerful, what else can I do? I'll fully cooperate then.
Besides, he probably knows that you are the Eight Sound Divine Lord.
He even wants the Eight Sound Sealing Formation.
Adding the secret I know, and then finding someone with the Eight Sound talent.
He's aiming for an even higher level.
However, I have to find out who Zuo Youyan is."
On the other side.
Gu An was also waiting for news.
He revealed the identity of the Blood Demon Divine Lord, and then there was Zuo Youyan.
He needed a name after all.
And the name Zuo Youyan was particularly useful.
As for which Divine Lord he belonged to, he naturally had to make it clear.
After all, his appetite was so big because the Blood Demon Divine Lord was greedy and arrogant.
Now, it depended on the response from the other side.
Two conditions, his ultimate goal was the first one.
As long as he could get the first one, it would be considered a success.
In the First Courtyard, the bald man also gave the Blood Demon Divine Lord the cultivation technique insights to read.
There were no problems, so he could release people today.
He heard that the other courtyards were very busy, constantly squeezing the value out of those people.
Gu An didn't have too many thoughts.
There was no need to make things too difficult with those people.
Of course, if someone wanted to do something secretly, then he would have to take action.
After all...
He needed to prioritize his own safety.
Three days later.
Mid-March.
Gu An sensed the secret technique.
It was the successor disciple of the Eight Sound Divine Lord contacting him.
The distance wasn't particularly far.
However, Gu An wasn't in a hurry to go over, as he might encounter the other party.
The secret technique transmission also took some time, so in theory, he wouldn't encounter them.
But it's better to be safe than sorry.
After waiting for a long time, Gu An condensed a Blood Spirit and went underground.
After reaching the Great Perfection of Blood Qi, he could see and hear everything around him through the Blood Spirit.
After a long time, the Blood Spirit found a letter.
It was slightly thick.
After observing the surroundings and confirming that there was no danger, Gu An opened the envelope and began to read.
The other party left a message, saying that to show her sincerity, she had left the two items together in advance, which surprised Gu An.
Then he continued to read on.
Soon, Gu An memorized the secret, and then memorized the Eight Sound Sealing Formation as well.
With that, he used the Blood Spirit to melt the items.
Finally, the Blood Spirit left a name in place.
And then dispersed.
He also activated the secret technique that had been left in advance.
After a long time, Dongfang Changli returned to this place again: "They actually told us the answer so readily."
At this time, Dongfang Changli, carrying a heavy sword, looked at the name on the ground and said, "Skywind Palace, Nangong Qian, very accurate."
"If you faked the secret, wouldn't you have gotten the information for nothing?" the Eight Sound Divine Lord asked.
"The other side is a Divine Lord, do I not value my life?" Dongfang Changli exclaimed: "That secret will no longer be a secret after a long time. Besides, let them go if they want to.
I never intended to come to Dongdao Ancient Province for that secret. I'm actually here to help you recover your strength.
But so far, I've only found one Divine Lord. If we find enough, can you become the殿主 (Hall Master) of the Divine Lord Hall?"
"To become the Hall Master, I need to activate the Divine Lord Hall. That is a place that needs to be found first," the Eight Sound Divine Lord said.
Dongfang Changli shrugged and said, "Let's go, let's take a trip to Skywind Palace. I wonder if they will like my style."
"A heavy sword paired with a jade flute is indeed not very suitable," the Eight Sound Divine Lord said.
Dongfang Changli casually wiped away the name and said:
"A flute and a sword, everywhere will be my legend.
If I wasn't worried about being hunted down, I would definitely make a name for myself in the world."
In the courtyard, Gu An took out a book and began to write down what he had seen.
The other party's secret was not anything special, but a tomb.
"The tomb of the Fire Phoenix clan."
"There is also a method to enter, but the exact location is unknown, only that it is in the east of Dongdao Ancient Province."
"It is said that there is a Nirvana Sutra inside."
Gu An was quite emotional, no wonder it was called a secret.
They have the method to enter, and they also know the Sutra inside, and even how to obtain the Sutra.
There is also speculation that there are spirit eggs of the Fire Phoenix clan inside.
The only thing unknown is the specific location.
But even if the location is discovered by others, it doesn't matter, because others probably don't know the method to enter, and they won't know how to obtain the Sutra.
After that, there was the Eight Sound Seal.
It was a combination of formation and术法 (spell).
He needed to ask the Blood Demon Divine Lord.
After recording the things in two parts, Gu An directly returned to Heavenly Suspension Peak.
He would first implement the sealing method, otherwise the First Courtyard would not be stable.
With the help of the Blood Demon Divine Lord, Gu An spent three thousand spirit stones to buy formation stones, and finally had the Blood Demon Divine Lord engrave them.
In this way, coupled with learning the Eight Sound method, Gu An could finally simply use the Eight Sound Sealing method.
This was a fixed-point seal. Temporary departures would also be affected by the seal. Long-term departures would break the seal.
And in order to make the seal more effective.
Two doors were needed.
One was the Gate of Sealing, and the other was the Gate of Unsealing.
The former, once entered, was equivalent to being trapped in the formation, where any music would be an invisible seal.
The latter was that after passing through, the seal could be broken after one incense stick's time.
In addition, the people entering also needed to be attached with formation patterns to prevent them from being affected.
With the help of the Blood Demon Divine Lord, everything was quickly perfected.
By the next day, Gu An had not received feedback from the Ring of Destiny, so he put everything away.
He was not in a hurry to arrange it.
He planned to arrange it after Dongfang Lingyun arrived.
Otherwise, it would be easily discovered.
This was indeed a troublesome point.
Of course, he could completely say that he bought it.
He just needed a process.
To make everything reasonable.
Heavenly Suspension Peak.
The fairy who had previously discussed Gu An with Shi Yuan appeared in front of a courtyard and respectfully saluted: "Senior Brother, now that Gu An is running the First Courtyard, it can be said that he is at the height of his power."
"The First Courtyard? Can their Golden Cores control the Sixth Courtyard?" A voice came from inside.
"The Second to Sixth Courtyards have actually found their respective sects and asked their fellow senior brothers and sisters for help, but Gu An of the First Courtyard has not done so," the fairy said.
"Are there any benefits?" A casual voice came from inside.
"There should be," the fairy was not sure.
But after calculating, she also felt that there were many benefits.
"Then don't worry. If there are benefits, the other peaks have them, but our Heavenly Suspension Peak doesn't. Naturally, someone will not be able to help but come over. There will always be jealous and self-righteous people. Don't worry."
"Then what if someone goes over?"
"See if they can cope. If they can cope, then continue to wait. The more you do this, the more you will arouse the greed of others. If they can't cope, you take people over and help him settle it, and rightfully take over.
If there is no chance, then continue to wait, don't rush.
His merits are too high, and everything needs to be justified.
First deal with the attacks from other sects. We all need to go out and practice."
