Chapter 894 -920: Can’t be too stingy!

The Great Elder Gou Shengtian still wore an expression as if he was about to ascend to heaven, and even when he saw Yang Zhen arrive, he merely nodded with a skin-deep smile. Yang Zhen didn’t mind much; the old man’s weary face clearly showed he was terrified by the current situation and worried sick.

Yang Chen had great talent and an indifferent character, much like Yang Zhen. He approached Gou Shengtian with a brazen face and whispered something, only to be slapped away, casting a fearful glance at Yang Zhen before he left.

Outside the door, Li Ruxue’s quiet murmuring could be heard: “Yang Chen, did you find out who that senior is? I saw it just now, the Great Elder’s face showed a hint of surprise. It wasn’t obvious, but I indeed saw it. This senior must be an incredible person.”

Yang Chen’s voice sounded quite apprehensive as he replied, “How could I find out? Senior Sister, you know full well what the Great Elder is like. I was just about to ask when he slapped me away. How could I dare to ask again?”

The two of them whispered more and more quietly as they left, obviously not daring to eavesdrop by the door.

Yang Zhen’s gaze returned to the scene before him. The half-destroyed White Cloud Mountain was littered with blue-green stone tablets, and half of the mountain had buildings shorn by a blade, as if split by a single sword strike. Fortunately, no disciples were injured.

The array Yang Zhen had set up before had mostly ceased to function. Now, the small remaining part of Shangyuan Sect on White Cloud Mountain was in ruins, looking as defeated as Gou Shengtian.

In just a few short days, it had already turned into this state. The art of prophecy and changes as vast as the seas were far beyond human intervention or alteration.

If man cannot change heaven and earth, then he must adapt to it; this is the fundamental premise for a practitioner.

Those who sought to defy heaven were simply not from the same era as Yang Zhen and the others.

What use was defying the heavens when in the end, one still became a cup of loess? Even those dazzling Emperor Realm Experts and Great Sages had all disappeared without a trace, hadn’t they?

After a while, the Great Elder finally sighed and walked unsteadily toward the inner courtyard, gesturing with a wave of his hand, “Come with me!”

Yang Zhen stood up, his face full of curiosity, following behind Gou Shengtian, wondering what the elder wanted to tell him.

Once the two sat down in the inner courtyard, Gou Shengtian took a good look at Yang Zhen from head to toe, his face cracking a reluctant smile, “Good lad, you’ve actually cultivated to such a realm that even I can’t see clearly how much terrifying power you have within you. I truly misjudged you back then.”

Yang Zhen smiled. Gou Shengtian himself was at the Divine Transformation Stage, having only just broken through. Moreover, his meridians were mostly obstructed, and without special methods, it was likely he could progress no further.

This was the best outcome that the revival of heaven and earth could bring. If it weren’t for Yang Zhen breaking the shackles of heaven and earth, Gou Shengtian would probably still be lingering in the Golden Core Stage.

After listening to Gou Shengtian’s reflections for a while, Yang Zhen curiously asked, “What exactly happened?”

Gou Shengtian took a deep breath, looked deeply at Yang Zhen, and said, “Do you believe in intuition?”

Yang Zhen nodded, “Intuition can sometimes be very accurate.”

Gou Shengtian smiled and continued, “Half a month ago, I had a premonition of this great change between heaven and earth. But no matter how I calculated, I could not figure it out and had to move to the outer gate for living. Unexpectedly, that move separated us forever from Shangyuan Sect and the celestial beings.”

Yang Zhen could see the wistful expression on Gou Shengtian’s face. For a lifetime dedicated to the growth of Shangyuan Sect, even not hesitating to maintain a stern face to set an example, Yang Zhen truly couldn’t fault such an old man.

Upon hearing Gou Shengtian’s words, Yang Zhen grinned, “Does the Great Elder believe in intuition?”

Gou Shengtian was stunned, asking with surprise, “What are you trying to say?”

Yang Zhen stood up, gazing out the window at the terrifying void beyond, “I have a feeling that the Headmaster and Senior Sister… they’re not dead!”

“What did you say?” Gou Shengtian sprang to his feet, his face alight with excitement as he stared at Yang Zhen. The power of his Divine Transformation Stage flared up as if it were of the Celestial Phase.

Of course, Gou Shengtian couldn’t truly manifest the might of the Celestial Phase. It was merely a spark amidst destruction, yet it was enough to start a raging inferno.

It was the spark of hope!

Yang Zhen chuckled, “On my way here, I realized that this chasm isn’t a catastrophe, but more like a creation of heaven and earth that simply split White Cloud Mountain in two, pushing each half in opposite directions.”

“So, you mean our half is in the east and the other half is actually in the far west?”

Yang Zhen nodded, “It’s just unclear how vast this chasm is and what lies within it. As of now, no one strong enough has been able to enter and come back out alive.”

Gou Shengtian laughed heartily, his vitality seemingly restored all at once. He clapped Yang Zhen on the shoulder, “Lad, I believe you. Don’t you dare deceive me, or else… or else…”

Realizing he had nothing to follow up with, Gou Shengtian sighed, “I have no other wishes in this life but to see Shangyuan Sect stand firm amidst this grand world. That alone would do justice to our ancestors.”

Yang Zhen smiled, “Shangyuan Sect will not only stand firm, but it will also prosper and grow.”

“You lad, you’ve always had a way with words!” Gou Shengtian’s mood and demeanor had clearly improved a lot. He suddenly furrowed his brows and called out, “You two rascals outside, how long are you going to listen? Get in here now!”

With a yelp from outside, Yang Chen scrambled in, followed by a blushing Li Ruxue.

Both of them looked at Yang Zhen with adoration, their faces filled with anxiety and anticipation.

Whether it was Yang Chen or Li Ruxue, both were astute and could easily infer Yang Zhen’s identity.

The only person here who could call the Headmaster “Senior Sister” was surely none other than Yang Zhen.

But since their identities hadn’t been confirmed, the expressions on their faces were somewhat complicated.

Gou Shengtian’s face flickered with a strange expression. He opened his mouth but said nothing, while Yang Zhen smiled and said, “The two of you, just call me Senior Brother Yang.”

After all, being a Senior Sister to the sect leader, it was rather complicated to speak of seniority at this time, but considering that Changyue Real Man was his mentor, he decided to take Changyue Real Man’s position as the standard.

“Senior Brother Yang, is it… is it really you?” Yang Chen’s face was alight with ecstatic joy, looking at Yang Zhen with admiration.

Yang Zhen too looked at his little fan brother whom he had never met before with satisfaction. Patting Yang Chen’s shoulder, he said, “It’s me. This is a gift for our meeting, cultivate it well. The Dayan Wind and Thunder Sword is so forceful, why fear the softness of the Three-Element Ghost Shadow Sword? When the time comes, not to mention equal levels, even if your opponent is a level lower, you’ll still make them wail like ghosts and howl like wolves.”

A barely perceptible wave of True Essence passed, as Yang Zhen transmitted the complete Dayan Wind and Thunder Sword to Yang Chen, who felt as if he had found a priceless treasure.

Li Ruxue, standing on the side, watched with eager anticipation, her face brimming with admiration, clearly very happy for Yang Chen.

Yang Zhen laughed heartily and said, “Well then, I’ve returned so rarely, I can’t be too stingy as Sao Saint.”

With that, Yang Zhen approached Li Ruxue, touched his finger to her forehead, and passed the Dayan Qian Thunder Sword technique to her.

Li Ruxue’s mind trembled wildly as she murmured to herself, “The Dayan Qian Thunder Sword technique, this… this is a Saint-grade cultivation method, thank you, Senior Brother Yang, for granting me this!”

The Dayan Qian Thunder Sword technique had already been elevated to a Saints-grade cultivation method by Yang Zhen’s comprehension, even including the Shangyuan Ancient Scripture of Shangyuan Sect, which also now qualified as a Saints-grade cultivation method; otherwise, Yang Zhen would have probably had to change his cultivation method.

Mastery of one is mastery of all, such is the essence of the world of cultivation.

The power of heaven and earth, that is the true source of all power.

Gou Shengtian, standing to the side, laughed heartily. His face showed surprise and delight upon hearing the words ‘Saints-grade cultivation method’, clearly very relieved and satisfied.

Seeing this made Yang Zhen chuckle. The Great Elder was quite a content person. Initially, Yang Zhen didn’t really like this old-fashioned fellow, but now he seemed to show a charming side of an elderly person.

Feeling playful, Yang Zhen sighed regretfully and said, “The Great Elder’s meridians are mostly blocked; I’m afraid they are not easy to repair.”

Gou Shengtian’s body shuddered, his eyes flashing with a hint of regret, and he said with a laugh, “No matter, I’m of an old age. To have cultivated to the Divine Transformation Stage before death is already a blessing from heaven and earth. How could I ask for more?”

Yang Zhen asked curiously, “As time goes by, more and more disciples within our gates will surpass the Divine Transformation Stage, that is, they’ll surpass the Great Elder’s cultivation. Are you content with that, Great Elder?”

Gou Shengtian laughed heartily and said, “What can I do if I’m not content? My boy, when you reach my age, you’ll understand—contentment brings happiness, ah, contentment brings happiness.”

“Oh!” Yang Zhen nodded and said, “I see, thank you for the lesson, Great Elder. Here I was, thinking that I had a method that could possibly allow you to cultivate to the Celestial Phase. It seems I was overthinking.”

“You may have a higher level of cultivation and realm than me now,” Great Elder Gou Shengtian began, his eyes suddenly bulging as he jumped three feet into the air and whizzed in front of Yang Zhen, grabbing his shoulders and tremblingly asked, “What did you just say?”

“I said, thanks for the lesson from the Great Elder!”

“Not that, the sentence after that!” Gou Shengtian swallowed, glaring at Yang Chen and Li Ruxue who were covering their mouths trying not to laugh out loud.

Yang Zhen blinked and said, “The sentence after that? I forgot, let me think um, I was overthinking!”

“No, the one before that!” Gou Shengtian was so agitated he could barely speak, his eyes wide with urgency, he said, “You damn kid, you’re even joking about me, you… can you really?”

Seeing the hopeful expression in Gou Shengtian’s eyes, Yang Zhen felt an inexplicable sense of familial affection arise.

Oh man, what the heck, where did this feeling come from?

But, actually, it’s not bad!

Yang Zhen looked at the unimposing old man before him with an intrigued smile, tossed a storage ring and said, “The things in there are enough to rebuild Shangyuan Sect ten times over. Among them, there’s something, no, at least three things that can match your meridian condition, cleanse the marrow, reconstruct the meridians, and cultivate to the Celestial Phase without issue, and maybe even restore your youth.”

At the mention of ‘restore youth’, Yang Chen and Li Ruxue could no longer hold back their laughter.

Gou Shengtian’s eyes widened, clearly overwhelmed by the concept of ‘restoring youth’, and he rushed into the inner chamber with the storage ring.

Just as Yang Zhen was about to speak, a thunderous boom suddenly came from outside, along with a familiar voice, “Yang Zhen, you little brat, come out and face me!”

“Not good, it’s Wan Quan!” Li Ruxue’s complexion changed.

“Senior Brother Yang, you should hide. That old scoundrel Wan Quan is here. He’s at the Ninth Heavenly Layer of the Divine Transformation Stage now, but you… what is your level of cultivation?” Yang Chen, with an expression of urgency, then asked with some curiosity.

Walking outside, Yang Zhen thought for a moment and said, “I think it’s the Circulation Phase!”

“Just the Circulation Phase, Senior Brother Yang you’re so…..What? The Circulation Phase?”

The two of them were completely dumbfounded, while the Great Elder Gou Shengtian, who turned pale and rushed out with his sword, nearly fell to the ground after hearing this.

The three of them had no idea that Yang Zhen had actually been deliberately suppressing his level of cultivation; otherwise, he would have broken through to the Celestial Phase by now.

Whoever breaks through to the Celestial Phase is a fool. When the tree is big, it attracts the wind and gets struck by lightning. Why rush cultivation when the world is in such chaos?
