Chapter 2117 - 2118: Request for AudienceLing Kongzi stepped up step by step, his fat body indeed giving the impression of floating and flying, as if treading on air.
The Jade Steps spiraled upward, stretching all the way to the top of the clouds.
Above the clouds, a resplendent and magnificent Taoist temple stood towering, backed by a lone peak.
This lone peak floated in the void, supported by nothing.
This was sustained by the Mountain-Defending Great Array, drawing spiritual energy from the void as a power source.
Who would know that atop Lingxiu Peak's summit in the void, there floated such a sanctified place of cultivation, wrought from the wonders of heaven and earth?
Ling Kongzi climbed with heavy breaths, his pace gradually quickening, his face timely showing some signs of panic.
He had just stepped onto the last of the Jade Steps when his view suddenly opened up to a wide square.
On the square, a Taoist saw Ling Kongzi and immediately stepped forward to question.
"Ling Kongzi, weren't you accompanying Uncle-Master Tianguzi to Yinxue Tower? Why have you come back?"
Ling Kongzi wore a bitter expression, shaking his hand: "I need to see Master."
The Taoist glanced at Ling Kongzi, noticing his downcast face seemed to understand something, showing some surprise.
"What, you actually couldn't take Yinxue Tower?"
Ling Kongzi bitterly smiled and nodded.
"There is a Great Divine Power Practitioner in Yinxue Tower, extremely formidable. We failed, and I barely escaped to bring back the news. May I ask where the Master is?"
The Taoist's face showed a trace of disdain, as if he wanted to say something, but held it back forcefully.
He waved his hand, his face full of impatience.
"There are esteemed guests visiting Xuantian Sect, and the Master is currently receiving them at Small Lone Peak."
"I advise you not to bother him with such a trivial matter as Yinxue Tower, or if the Master blames you, you won't be able to bear it."
Ling Kongzi silently nodded and saluted the Taoist.
"Thank you, Brother, for your guidance. I will be careful."
Saying this, he walked towards Small Lone Peak.
The Taoist watched Ling Kongzi's back, his face full of disdain.
"He couldn't even take a mere Yinxue Tower, and yet he dares to show his face at Xuantian Sect, Tianguzi's lineage is all waste."
Ling Kongzi heard the Taoist's words but pretended not to hear, secretly sneering as he quickened his steps towards the back mountain.
The bamboo grove of Small Lone Peak was green and serene.
At this moment, an old Taoist with crane hair and youthful complexion was boiling tea with a bronze stove.
The bubbling tea emitted steam, white mist rising steadily.
In the air, the white mist formed various fantastic visions like Immortal Crane and Celestial Maidens Scattering Flowers, the extraordinary fragrance from the teapot hinting at the remarkable origin of the tea.
Opposite the old Taoist sat an elderly Taoist with a broad face and big ears, wearing a purple-red silk Taoist robe, his gaze flickering like lightning, exuding authority without anger.
To the left of the old Taoist was a tall and thin man, his face ashen and gloomy, his gaze cold and sinister, looking extremely terrifying.
This old Taoist was naturally Xuantian Sect's patriarch, Patriarch Xuan Tian.
The elderly Taoist with a broad face hailed from Dragon Tiger Mountain, and was the junior brother of Dragon Tiger Mountain's Sect Master, Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian's mastery of the Five Thunder Methods, though not as great as Dragon Tiger Mountain's Sect Master Zhang Tianshi, was already a Great Achievement, well-renowned in today's Cultivation World.
Dragon Tiger Mountain, with its history spanning a thousand years and numerous disciples, reached its peak during the Song and Yuan dynasties, being appointed as State Preceptor by emperors.
However, later on, as the spiritual energy in Earth Space became progressively thin, the then Sect Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, Jin Yi Zhenren, had to seek space fragments in the void near Earth, establishing Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands.
He moved the entire sect headquarters to the space fragments to continue training.
The Dragon Tiger Mountain Taoist orthodoxy left on Earth slowly declined, ultimately becoming a Mortal World faction of fortune-telling and blessings, drawing charms and paintings.
In modern civilization, these Cultivation Sects had become a joke, merely deceitful, collecting incense money.
However, no one expected that within a decade, the spiritual energy in Earth Space would suddenly surge, even more abundant than the Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands created by Jin Yi Zhenren, by several magnitudes.
Thus, the Dragon Tiger Mountain sect reappeared in Earth Space, returned to the old place, establishing cave mansions, and resumed practicing Taoist Laws.
Patriarch Xuan Tian was originally just a Loose Cultivator, secluded in some space fragment, never finding a suitable Cave Heaven and Blessed Land to cultivate.
With Earth Space's sudden surge in spiritual energy, Patriarch Xuan Tian seized this opportunity, descended to Earth Space, and claimed Yannan City's Lingxiu Peak, the area richest in spiritual energy, to establish the sect.
As for the man with a sallow face, his name was Ku Xuanzi.
Ku Xuanzi was a sect disciple from the great cultivation sect Xuanyin Sect.
After Xuanyin Sect descended upon Earth's overseas, he too followed and arrived in Earth Space.
Patriarch Xuan Tian, Li Chengqian, and Ku Xuanzi were originally friends.
After establishing Xuantian Sect, Patriarch Xuan Tian frequently interacted with these two individuals.
Xuantian Sect was newly founded, needing alliances with great cultivation sects like Dragon Tiger Mountain and Xuanyin Sect to strengthen its foundation.
So, Li Chengqian and Ku Xuanzi often took advantage of Patriarch Xuan Tian's kindness.
Though Patriarch Xuan Tian possessed a high level of cultivation, his foundation was shallow, with little opportunity to take over Yinxue Tower.
But he was the first cultivator to descend to Earth Space, the first to seize the opportunity.
The boundless wealth and resources of Yinxue Tower were forcibly appropriated by him.
Patriarch Xuan Tian, being wise, knew he couldn't take Yinxue Tower by himself.
He used his wealth to make connections with Li Chengqian of Dragon Tiger Mountain, opening channels through him, and subsequently meeting Ku Xuanzi.
Ku Xuanzi was a sect disciple from the overseas Xuanyin Sect.
He received Patronage from Patriarch Xuan Tian and developed some fondness for his generous benefactor who offered solutions to problems.
Patriarch Xuan Tian naturally treated these two esteemed guests with profound hospitality.
Though Li Chengqian looked down on Patriarch Xuan Tian, consideration for the enchanting model he kept in Yannan City through this old Taoist added some warmth in his feelings towards Patriarch Xuan Tian.
Ku Xuanzi received a bank card from Patriarch Xuan Tian with 10 million in Huaxia currency.
In modern civilized society, lacking money is not feasible.
Ku Xuanzi, though a person of cultivation, showed significant interest in wealth.
The three drank tea, discussing past and present with great harmony.
Just then, the voice of the fat Great Taoist Ling Kongzi reached the bamboo grove.
"Master, disciple Ling Kongzi requests an audience."
Patriarch Xuan Tian's brow furrowed, cursing Ling Kongzi for lacking sense.
He felt uneasy, wondering why Ling Kongzi returned alone when he and Tianguzi were sent to take care of Yinxue Tower.
Patriarch Xuan Tian knew a formidable character had recently appeared in Yinxue Tower, rumored to be the Tower Master from ten years ago.
But he hadn't regarded it as significant, considering the Martial Arts Master, even breaking into the Spirit Martial Realm, without the Qi Cultivation Technique, could only become a Level One or Two Qi Cultivator at best.
Such a person could be dealt with by any disciple, and it happened that his junior brother Tianguzi wanted to move around a bit and go down the mountain.
Thus, Patriarch Xuan Tian assigned this task to him, while also sending the external branch disciple Ling Kongzi as a guide.
Patriarch Xuan Tian barely paid attention to this matter.
The oil and water from Yinxue Tower had long been drained by him, and he didn't intend to retain such an external organization.
Yet now, with Kongguzi missing and only Ling Kongzi coming up the peak,
it gave Patriarch Xuan Tian an ominous premonition.
