Chapter 1174: Chapter 394: Ninth Heavenly Layer Second Stage, Pill Spirit Three Qi (Double Chapter)

However, just like Ouyang Jingyuan earlier, He Yuhang and Zhao Haoran’s way of addressing Lei Jun had some differences.

Although the current Great Han Dragon Tiger Mountain remains hidden, and the relationships between the Great Han Pure Yang Palace and the Great Han Mount Shu Sect are somewhat complex and unclear, He Yuhang and the others were still cautious on their first visit to the Great Tang side.

Lei Jun didn’t mind this and calmly received the people from the two sects.

The initial contact involved not much in-depth conversation.

Especially regarding information related to the Great Han Dragon Tiger Mountain, He Yuhang and Zhao Haoran deliberately avoided mentioning it too much.

What put them at ease was that Lei Jun also did not probe for much information in this aspect.

Throughout the conversation, this Celestial Master of the Great Tang remained very calm.

At the same time, there was an underlying sense of detachment and aloofness.

He Yuhang and Zhao Haoran did not feel neglected.

It wasn’t because of the other party’s strength, but because, to their knowledge, this Great Vehicle High Immortal maintained a similar attitude even when facing Tang cultivators.

The man felt as unfathomable as the Abyssal Sea, yet always calm and serene in daily life.

It was hard to imagine that, as rumored, he and two other High Immortals of the Great Tang Dragon Tiger Mountain had swept through the Five Prestiges of Great Unity.

The general situation of the Great Unity battle is no longer a secret today, although many details remain missing.

The information that the Great Han side has managed to gather is quite limited, with the clearest account being that State Master Tang Xiaotang of the Great Tang singlehandedly conquered the ancestral land of the Lin Clan of Great Unity, defeating the Ninth Heavenly Layer perfection stage Great Scholar Lin Zheng.

Such a battle record is already breathtaking.

Following this was another High Immortal of the Celestial Master Mansion of the Great Tang, Xu Yuanzhen, who was the only one to venture deeply into the world of the Han people.

He actually forced the Great Han Dragon Tiger Mountain into hiding.

In contrast, Celestial Master Lei’s specific circumstances are unclear; it is only heard that he captured Yin Ming, Tan Muwei, Ma Zongxiang, and others from the Han world alive.

Besides killing a few clansmen of the Qingzhou Ye Clan, he did not go on a killing spree.

The man’s strength is naturally quite profound, but his actions didn’t seem ruthless?

On the Great Tang Human Realm side, there are other rumors about him.

Contrasting the two, there are contradictions that are difficult to decipher.

He Yuhang and Zhao Haoran were originally very cautious in dealing with Lei Jun.

But the outcome was unexpectedly smooth, making them feel even more unable to see through this Celestial Master of the Great Tang.

After Lei Jun hosted the people from the Great Han Mount Shu Sect and Pure Yang Palace, he didn’t need to worry about the arrangements, as other High Merit Elders of the Great Tang Dragon Tiger Mountain took care of hosting the guests in the mansion.

"Did you see the Nine Heavens Yang Ruler?" Subsequently, Lei Jun called on Ji Chuan, Wang Xuan, and other cultivators of the Great Tang.

Ji Chuan nodded slightly: "The Nine Heavens Yang Ruler is indeed in the possession of the branch within the Great Han."

Lei Jun nodded slightly.

The Mount Shu Sect in past years had the Six Treasures of Opening the Mountain, each forged by different founding ancestors of the Mount Shu Sect.

The Purple Azure Twin Swords were two of them, and they have been kept by the Great Tang Mount Shu Sect to this day.

But the other four treasures, according to the history of the Great Tang Mount Shu Sect, were lost unexpectedly thousands of years ago.

Now it seems, with the branching of the human realms, the Six Mountain-Opening Treasures of the Mount Shu Sect scattered into different realms that historical timelines point to.

Lei Jun had already heard from Senior Sister Xu Yuanzhen that over in the Ming human realm, the Mount Shu Sect possesses the Sun Moon Qiankun Pot, one of the Six Treasures, which is now one of the Ming Mount Shu Sect’s symbolic magical treasures.

The Inner Mount Shu of the Netherworld has the Five Declines Great Path Bell.

The Mount Shu Sect in the Han world retains another Mountain-Opening Treasure, the Nine Heavens Yang Ruler.

Like the Great Tang Mount Shu Sect and the Inner Mount Shu of the Netherworld, over thousands of years and changes, the Great Han Mount Shu Sect and the Ming Mount Shu Sect have both accumulated other heirloom treasures comparable to these.

However, for a sword cultivator like He Yuhang, there is naturally a significant concern for the Purple Azure Twin Swords.

Ji Chuan, although the master of the Blue Abyss Sword, didn’t bring the Blue Abyss Sword with him when he went to the Han world before.

"No matter what, knowing that both the Nine Heavens Yang Ruler and the Sun Moon Qiankun Pot are still in the hands of the legitimate inheritance of the sect is ultimately a good thing." Ji Chuan sighed.

There may be disputes between each other, and true reunification might be impossible.

But at least it’s much better than having the treasures lost or fall into the hands of the likes of the Inner Mount Shu of the Netherworld.

Lei Jun observed Ji Chuan’s expression and knew he was reminded of the symbolically missing Grand Treasure of the Great Tang Mount Shu Sect, the Taiyi Primordial Tower.

He changed the topic: "Regardless of which human realm, Wong, is a common surname, but I saw on the list that among the disciples of the Great Han Mount Shu coming this time, is there one named Wang Jianan?"

There are many people with the surname Wang under heaven.

Not to mention others, Wang Xuan beside the two at this moment is one such person.

Aside from specific times and occasions, Lei Jun doesn’t associate all the people surnamed Li with the Li Clan of Xinzhou back in the day.

But the Langya Wang Clan of the Han side has some slight special connections with the Great Tang side.

Therefore, upon seeing the name Wang Jianan, Lei Jun’s mind formed a connection.

Ji Chuan nodded: "There is indeed such a person, Celestial Master was not mistaken. This fellow Daoist Wang is from the Langya Wang Clan, one of the twelve esteemed families of the Han."

Lei Jun nodded slightly.

In the past, the Han and Tang human realms had briefly connected, though it was little known.

Kang Ming and others from the Yellow Sky Sect traveled to the Han side via this route.

The root cause was Dongyang Mountain Man Wang Xu.

The Langya Wang Clan across from them seems to be quite concerned about this matter.

Lei Jun handled it indifferently.

Since they are people from the Great Han Mount Shu Sect, they should be handled by Ji Chuan and his people.

He Yuhang, Zhao Haoran, and others, visiting the mountain for the first time, made no deeper contact and left the mountain after a few days as guests, subsequently following Ji Chuan and Wang Xuan to the Great Tang Mount Shu and Zhongnan Mountain respectively.

Lei Jun stayed at the Celestial Master Mansion on Dragon Tiger Mountain, continuing his cultivation.

Time gradually passed by.

Into the summer, Lei Jun celebrated his seventy-third birthday.

His cultivation accumulation grew increasingly profound.

Upon unfolding the Great Vehicle Taoist Scene, the profound yellow universe appeared as usual.

Yet as Lei Jun’s mana condensed, a large amount of Mysterious Spirit Primary Qi was generated, dense black like fog.

As Lei Jun’s mana further refined it, the black fog gathered as if transformed into a thick, dark land, distinguishing the heavens and the earth in the profound yellow universe.

Dust lightly hovered above the black land.

Underground, thunder continuously reverberated.

The thunder that should have resounded from the Ninth Heaven seemed sealed underground at this moment.

Lei Jun sat calmly on this piece of dark land, the silent cosmic void stretched above his head.

The originally black void now interwoven with bright yellow, revealing numerous orbits.

Lei Jun quietly contemplated his own Taoist laws, channeling spiritual power.

His Great Vehicle Taoist Scene seemed at this moment to transform into a gigantic Pill Furnace.

Unlike the Taoist Sect Alchemy Cauldron Sect’s approach of using oneself as the furnace, and global Spiritual Qi as medicine, refining the Great Elixir internally.

At this moment, Lei Jun used his Great Vehicle Taoist Scene transformed cosmic wilderness to become a Furnace of Roaring Flames, refining all things within.

Including his own soul.

The profound yellow universe bore no scorching heat, yet everything within continuously transformed.

Around Lei Jun’s body, beyond the Mysterious Spirit Primary Qi, a new airflow began to form.

It was wonderfully exquisite, akin to pill essence.

Named Pill Spirit Three Qi.

Achieving the refinement of the Pill Spirit Three Qi marked Lei Jun’s successful ascension to the second-layer realm of the Ninth Heavenly Layer.
