Immediately afterwards, Yan Yun used all his magic power to move, his escape speed suddenly increased, and he disappeared into the sky in a moment, leaving no trace behind.
A few months later, Yan Yun and the girl entered the territory of Xi Country calmly.
A few days later, a dazzling cyan light suddenly appeared near the Yunmeng Mountains. When it was still a hundred miles away from the mountains, a roar that shook the world erupted from it.
This whistling sound reached directly into the sky, with the majesty of a dragon's roar and the sharpness of a phoenix. The surrounding white clouds were instantly shaken by it, collapsing and turbulent.
However, the speed of the Qinghong was so fast that it covered dozens of miles in just a few breaths. The powerful spiritual power contained in it naturally caused the three major sects in the Yunmeng Mountains to move together. shock.
No matter whether they are elders who have reached the Nascent Soul stage or ordinary disciples who have reached the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stage, they are all frightened when they hear this whistle in the distance.
Those Nascent Soul old monsters could not rest peacefully in the sect, so they left the sect one after another and went to find out in person who had visited this place and dared to show their whereabouts in the Yunmeng Mountains so unscrupulously.
Therefore, when Yan Yun had just penetrated more than ten miles into the mountains, he immediately encountered five escaping lights that were speeding towards him. They were obviously Nascent Soul stage monks from the three major sects.
Yan Yun felt uneasy because he was about to reunite with Nangong Wan, and the excitement in his heart made it difficult for him to calm down.
Immediately, the escaping light dissipated, the whistling sound disappeared, and Yan Yun appeared with Tongtian Qin'er, his eyes fixed on the five escaping lights in front of him.
After a pause, a rare smile appeared on his face.
When the five rays of escaping light approached thirty or forty feet away, they dispersed one after another, revealing the figures of the five monks.
Yan Yun actually knew most of them.
"Junior Brother Yan, is it you?"
A middle-aged man in a blue robe opposite recognized Yan Yun's face from a distance. After stopping, his eyes were full of surprise and he shouted loudly to Yan Yun.
This person is Lu Luo from the Luoyun Sect. It was this elder Lu who invited Yan Yun to join the sect.
"Senior Brother Lu, you're fine!"
Yan Yun responded with a smile and bowed his hands to Lu Luo.
"It turns out that Fellow Taoist Yan has returned. I didn't expect that the person with such amazing magical powers is you. Hey, isn't Fellow Taoist Yan already a later practitioner?"
The first person to ask the question was a monk wearing a red robe and with a face as ruddy as a child. He was the Fire Dragon Boy from the Ancient Sword Sect. However, at this moment, his face showed an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
"Brother Lan, didn't you also successfully advance to the mid-level realm?"
Yan Yun glanced at the boy and asked with a smile.
"Fellow Taoist Yan is really good at joking. How can my promotion to the mid-level realm be compared with fellow Taoist becoming a great monk?"
The fire dragon boy swallowed hard before reluctantly answering.
Several other monks suddenly realized this and scanned Yan Yun with their spiritual consciousness. Naturally, they were all dumbfounded and shocked.
Lu Luo asked again with a trembling voice:
"Is this true? Junior brother, you are now a late-stage great monk?"
"During this trip, I gained a lot, so I was lucky enough to break through to the later stage." Yan Yun's face remained normal and he replied calmly.
After hearing this, Lu Luo was so happy that he didn't know what to say for a moment, with a bright and flowery smile on his face.
"Congratulations to Brother Yan, it is really unexpected. In just a hundred years, Taoist Brother Yan has made such outstanding progress on the path of spiritual practice. I believe that our Yunmeng Mountain lineage will be proud and proud in the Tiannan region in the future."
The speaker was the elder Feng whom Yan Yun had met in Baiqiao Courtyard. He was surprised and immediately spoke enthusiastically.
Hearing this, Yan Yun showed a satisfied smile on his face and had no more words to express.
Although the early Yuanying monks and the later monks are both at the Yuanying level and can be respectfully called peers, the gap between the two is undoubtedly well known to everyone.
Everyone present seemed relatively low-key in front of Yan Yun, consciously lowering their posture.
As for the other two men, their faces were a little unfamiliar to Yan Yun. They were new elders from the Ancient Sword Sect and Baiqiao Courtyard respectively.
When facing Yan Yun, they were even more nervous and awkward. After saying hello, they knew it and said nothing more.
"Brother Lan and fellow Taoist Feng, please return to the sect first. Yan has been away from the sect for many years. He may need to return to the sect for a while and then go to Gujianmen and Baiqiaoyuan to visit fellow Taoists. What do you think? ”
Yan Yun's eyes flashed as he suggested.
After hearing this, the Fire Dragon boy and the elder named Feng repeatedly said that there was no need for this, and even said that they would personally lead other elders to Luoyun Sect to pay homage to Yan Yun.
After getting Yan Yun's approval, the two parties agreed on a date for the visit three days later, and then left separately.
In the blink of an eye, only Lu Luo was left.
"Senior Brother Lu, now that the other two sects have newly promoted Nascent Soul monks, why is there still no new Nascent Soul elder born in our sect? So much so that I need to bother senior brother to come and greet me in person."
When the four people disappeared from sight using the escape light, Yan Yun frowned and asked Lu Luo.
"I'm really ashamed. In the past hundred years, our sect has recruited many disciples with excellent qualifications through the reputation of our junior disciples, but their cultivation is still insufficient. There are very few disciples who can break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the near future."
"However, as long as these outstanding disciples can grow, the strength of our sect will definitely increase significantly. By the way, where does this little girl come from?"
Lu Luo looked embarrassed at first, but when his eyes fell on Tian Qin'er behind Yan Yun, he showed some doubts.
"This is a disciple I took in during my travels. The formal apprenticeship ceremony has not yet been held."
Yan Yun smiled slightly and replied.
"I've met my uncle!"
Tian Qin'er was quite well-behaved and immediately stepped forward to salute.
Although she is currently only in the Qi Refining Stage, since she became Yan Yun's disciple, her status has obviously surpassed those ordinary disciples who only determine their seniority based on their cultivation level.
"Haha, get up quickly. I didn't expect that junior brother has finally decided to officially accept a disciple. As a senior uncle, I don't have any valuable gifts to give you. I only have this protective magic weapon that I used in the past. I hope it can bring you Good luck.”
Lu Luo laughed loudly, reached out and took out a shining red crystal ball from the storage bag on his waist, and handed it to Tian Qin'er without hesitation.
The girl was stunned for a moment, but soon regained her joy. She saluted and thanked Lu Luo again, and then carefully took over this precious magic weapon.
Yan Yun just responded with a faint smile to this scene, and then he, together with Lu Luo and Tian Qin'er, rushed towards the Luoyun Sect's location. On the way, Lu Luo gave Yan Yun a brief introduction to the development of Luoyun Sect in the past hundred years, especially emphasizing that "the silver-haired old man Cheng passed away due to illness and that Nangong Wan is not out of trouble yet."
These two important events.
Yan Yun had already expected the death of the silver-haired old man, but when he heard Lu Luo personally confirming the incident, he still felt extremely sad.
After all, he had a very harmonious relationship with Senior Brother Cheng back then.
However, when Yan Yun heard that Nangong Wan was still sealed in the ice wall, deep worries emerged in his heart, and his face involuntarily showed a serious and tense expression.
However, Lu Luo explained to him with a calm smile:
"You don't need to worry too much. Although your wife has not been able to break the seal, she has regained consciousness and has no obvious physical discomfort. It's just that she is currently in a critical period of practicing a specific technique. If something unexpected happens at this moment, Leaving the seal may cause all previous efforts to be in vain.”
After hearing Lu Luo's explanation, Yan Yun felt that the tension in his heart was gradually relieved.
It turns out that his previous guess was indeed correct. Even if I cannot personally lift the seal for Nangong Wan, in this case, she can still be safe and sound.
However, now that I have obtained the method to lift the seal, it cannot be wasted. It is best to cast the method again to lift the seal for Nangong Wan, so as to ensure that there will not be any unknown hidden dangers in the future.
Yan Yun quickly made a decision in his mind.
During the conversation, the three of them had unknowingly arrived in front of the Luoyun Sect's prohibition formation.
Since Lu Luo had already released a transmission note in advance during the journey, when they just flew here, the restricted fog that filled the entire formation instantly billowed, and then gradually dissipated.
It turned out that the entire mountain formation had begun to evacuate.
Yan Yun was shocked by this.
However, before they had time to express any opinions, hundreds of disciples in the foundation-building stage, led by more than a dozen monks in the alchemy stage, rushed out of the mountain gate one after another, and then divided into two rows in mid-air. shouted:
"Disciples of the Luo Yun Sect, we sincerely welcome Elder Yan to the great completion of Yuan Ying and his honorable return to the mountain gate!"
After shouting, these disciples all looked excited and bowed deeply to Yan Yun.
Apparently, Lu Luo had already informed all the disciples in the sect through the transmission notes that Yan Yun had been successfully promoted to a later stage monk.
Therefore, these sect disciples came to welcome the return of "Elder Yan" in such a grand manner.
After all, these Luoyun Sect disciples all know very well what it means to have a great monk born in the sect.
This not only means that the sect will rise rapidly and become the leading super sect in the Tiannan region, but it will also have far more cultivation resources than before.
As disciples of the Luoyun Sect, they were naturally happy and excited about this.
However, Yan Yun could only helplessly smile twice at Lu Luo beside him.
"Senior Brother Lu, I am not an outsider, so I don't seem to need to welcome you with such fanfare, right?"
"Haha, Junior Brother Yan is wrong. Junior Brother has successfully been promoted to a great monk. The disciples of our sect should come to greet him solemnly. In the near future, we will also hold a grand celebration to celebrate this event. Elders from other sects will be invited to attend the ceremony. Only in this way can the distinguished status of the junior disciple be demonstrated. ”
Lu Luo responded with a hearty laugh.
"It's all up to senior brother to make the decision. However, junior brother really has no time to take care of these complicated matters. The most he can do is attend the celebrations when the time comes."
Yan Yun could only reluctantly agree.
According to the traditional customs in the Tiannan region, whenever a monk is successfully promoted to the late stage of Nascent Soul, a large-scale, solemn and grand ceremony must be held to announce the good news to the entire Tiannan region.
In order to let other sects know about this, and thus officially establish the super status of the sect where the great monk belongs.
Yan Yun was really embarrassed to raise objections.
Therefore, surrounded by many disciples of the sect, Yan Yun successfully entered the Luoyun Sect and walked straight into a magnificent hall within the sect.
Yan Yun sat on the throne in the center of the hall, and although Lu Luo sat side by side with him, his seat was slightly deviated from the center, indicating that Yan Yun would take the lead in the future.
Yan Yun saw this scene and did not make any comment.
If a sect has a great monk in the late Nascent Soul stage but still does not take the lead, it will probably only bring endless trouble to the sect.
First of all, the disciples in the sect will definitely fall into panic, not to mention the suspicion and doubts of other sects.
Eventually, a series of chaos will inevitably result.
Therefore, Yan Yun did not refuse or shirk responsibility, but acquiesced to the arrangement of Senior Brother Lu. However, he remained silent from his position in the middle of the hall and did not express any opinions.
After all, he has not returned to the sect for many years, and has been indifferent to the affairs of the sect in the past. Naturally, it is more appropriate to entrust all matters to Senior Brother Lu.
Facts have proved that although Lu Luo's cultivation is not outstanding among many Nascent Soul monks, he appears to be orderly when handling the affairs within the sect.
First, he asked the named disciples in his sect who had recently formed elixirs to visit Yan Yun one by one, and then officially announced the good news of Yan Yun's promotion to a late-stage Nascent Soul monk.
Then, tasks were assigned under the expectant eyes of all the disciples, and preparations for the ceremony were officially launched.
Yan Yun sat quietly on the chair, his eyes passing over the disciples casually.
Most of the disciples present are at the Pill Formation Stage, and a few Foundation Establishment Stage monks are important deacons responsible for daily affairs in the sect.
Whenever Yan Yun's eyes fell on a certain disciple, they would all lower their heads and avoid him to express their respect for Yan Yun.
However, after Yan Yun observed for a while, he unexpectedly discovered that his registered disciple Liu Yu and the woman named Song named Bai Fengfeng did not appear among these people.
His heart was shaken and he felt quite confused.
After Lu Luo finished explaining one by one, all the disciples respectfully accepted the order and left, starting to prepare for the grand ceremony in a few months.
"Senior Brother Lu, I don't seem to have seen Senior Nephew Song. Could it be that she is out for other important matters?" Yan Yun asked casually.
Lu Luo couldn't help but smile when he heard this.
"Haha, Junior Brother Yan may not know something, but Senior Nephew Song went to Falling Demon Valley to find a rare spiritual herb needed for the elixir. It is said that this spiritual grass has long been extinct in the outside world, but someone once found it in Falling Demon Valley. ”
"Breaking into Fallen Demon Valley?" Yan Yun's expression suddenly changed when he heard this. (End of chapter)
