d that Ginger Cloud was also inside the lamp and being burned by a fire demon.More importantly, there was no connection whatsoever between myself and Jiang Yun.This made his heart skip a beat!Although...As Jiang Yun spoke, his finger moved like a razor-sharp blade, striking out suddenly between himself and Wei Hong!
Taoism, love parting sorrow!
As the strike came down, Ginger Cloud could clearly see that the space around him suddenly warped and twisted, as if an invisible hand had grabbed the air and squeezed it with all its might.
After a dull boom, several powerful gusts of wind surged out from the twisting void, instantly creating a whirlwind that swept in all directions.
"Boom boom boom!"
A series of explosions sounded, and the shockwaves they contained pulverized all the furniture within the small building.
And at this very moment, standing before Jiang Yun was Wei Hong, his face flushed with embarrassment, hands empty.
Behind Wei Hong, the old man with a Taoist nature showed a look of astonishment. There was a glimmer in his eyes that disappeared rapidly, and he stared fixedly at Jiang Yun.
Illusion!
Just now, what Wei Hong passed over in Jiang Yun's eyes was a storage ring, along with his words, all turned out to be illusions!
This illusion is extremely skillful, and upon its deployment, it has already peered into Jiang Yun's mind, knowing that he is searching for a pill to heal his soul injury, as well as his curiosity about the Yaoshengzong. Therefore, such probing words were uttered from Wei Hong's mouth.
The one who cast this illusion is naturally the Taoist elder who came in with Wei Hong.
And the moment he cast his illusion was precisely the instant he made eye contact with Jiang Yun when they first entered!
Although Ginger Cloud prides himself on his skill and boldness, he had to admit at this time that the Xuanxu Sect did indeed have some real power!
The Xuanxu Sect, true to its name, excels in illusionary arts, also known as mystical deception.
He could actually cast illusions with just a casual glance, and successfully ensnared Jiang Yun within them.
If it weren't for Ginger Cloud having once overcome his heart demon and experienced the ten-year illusionary realm within the Nine Hells of Emptiness, he probably wouldn't have been able to tell the difference.
Of course, this is also because the other party was too eager to explore the secrets deep within Jiang Yun's heart, continuously probing with language.
Otherwise, Ginger Cloud would likely remain trapped in the illusion for a longer time, allowing the other party to uncover more of his secrets.
To be honest, after experiencing the ten years of illusion in the Nine Netherworlds and especially after sparring with top experts like the Sovereign King and the Dao Lord, Jiang Yun's mentality has become somewhat detached.
Therefore, for this ancient realm, although he knew it was not a place of goodness, he did not pay too much attention to it.
This is also why he readily agreed to Wei Hong's invitation and joined Xuanxu Sect as a visiting elder.
Today's events, although they caused Jiang Yun to leak some secrets, were actually a good thing for him because it allowed him to finally realize more clearly that the ancient world is full of hidden dragons and tigers.
Though Jiang Yun might not be afraid of a real fight, we must remember that the major sects and families have existed in this ancient realm for ages. Their foundations are deep and should not be underestimated!
"Senior Jiang, please bear with me. Although I sincerely invite you to be a guest elder of my sect, according to our sect rules, any guest elder has to go through some assessments."
At this moment, Wei Hong, filled with remorse, repeatedly bowed to Jiang Yun, opening his mouth to explain.
Jiang Yun knew very well that Wei Hong was deliberately doing this, but what he said was also true. He had been too careless.
Thinking about this, Ginger Yun's slightly agitated mood instantly calmed down. She smiled faintly and said, "This is only natural. I just wonder, has Ginger Yun passed the assessment of your sect"
Wei Hong did not dare to speak, but instead looked at the old man behind him.
The old man also retracted the astonishment on his face, smiled, and cupped his fist in a salute towards Jiang Yun: "I'm not boasting, but under my bewildering gaze, Daoist Jiang is the fastest to awaken."
"So, welcome fellow Jian Dao to join my Xuanyu Sect!"
Hearing the elder's words, Wei Hong let out a long sigh of relief and smiled broadly. "Congratulations, Elder Jiang! No, no, no, congratulations to Elder Jiang!"
As he spoke, Wei Hong once again produced a storage ring from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Yun: "As an honored guest elder of our sect, you will receive a fixed monthly stipend."
Also, if you have any other special requirements, feel free to ask. I will do my best to satisfy you.
Looking at the storage ring outstretched before him, Jiang Yun this time had no hesitation whatsoever. He directly reached out and took it, sweeping his hand through it and discovering that there was quite a bit inside.
Besides elixirs and at least ten thousand spirit stones, there were also some talismans and formation stones, as well as the stone that Wei Hong had previously used to open this space.
It's not hard to see that the Xuanxu Sect is quite generous to its guest elders. This also made Jiang Yun realize that for the sect to be able to take out so many cultivation resources without any hesitation, the overall power of the Xuanxu Sect shouldn't be too weak.
The old man with the Taoist air bowed to Jiang Yun and said, "Well, I've offended you just now. Please forgive me, friend."
"This old man will take his leave first. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will come again and get to know Elder Jiang more!"
After finishing his words, the elder turned and left. Only Ginger Cloud and Wei Hong remained in the room. Wei Hong smiled and said, "Elder Ginger, if you're not tired, why don't I stay and give you a brief introduction to my Xuanxu Sect and this ancient realm"
Ginger naturally wouldn't be polite and nodded, saying, "Then I'll trouble you."
Thus, Wei Hong sat down and began to introduce Jiang Yun about everything in the ancient world of the Xuanxu Sect.
Meanwhile, the Taoist elder left Jiang Yun's residence and immediately rushed towards the back mountain of the sect.
At the back of Xuanxu Sect's mountain range, there was a small valley.
The valley was in a concave shape, with a seven-story pagoda standing in the center. Several bells hung above each eaves of the pagoda.
Strangely, although there was a strong wind blowing into the valley from the mouth of the gorge, passing over the pagoda, it could not shake these bells at all, not even a single sound, they were completely silent.
At the mouth of the valley sat a powerfully built man, his knees crossed and eyes closed. Though he simply sat there, his body was as solid as an iron tower, blocking the entrance and guarding this mountain valley.
The old man walked before the mighty Han, his demeanor becoming extremely respectful. He bowed deeply and said: "Disciple greets the Elder."
"
Da Han's eyes were wide open. "How is it"
"
The elder replied, "This person's name is Jiang Yun. He is indeed new to the Dao Ancient Realm, and his strength is unfathomable. Within the disciple's hazy vision, he only took three breaths to break through, so it was impossible to find out more. The disciple is incompetent, please punish him, Elder."
Da Han Mian said expressionlessly: "If we can't find out, then it doesn't matter. His past is unimportant. What matters is his future! As long as he can serve my Xuanxu Sect at the crucial moment, that will be enough. Alright, you may leave now!"
"Yes!"
After the old man bowed deeply, he turned and left. The great man suddenly opened his eyes, two cold beams shooting from them, piercing through the emptiness before him.
Then, the great Han turned to look at the seven-story pagoda in the mountain valley behind him, and continued to mutter to himself: “I wonder how long it will take the young master to leave the seclusion, and I don't even know if he will succeed.”
"If successful, the day the young master leaves this place will be the day our clan rises!"
As the Grand Han's words fell, all the bells that had been motionless atop the pagoda suddenly vibrated together. Their crisp and melodious sound echoed through the mountains and valleys in an instant, spreading throughout the Xuanyu Sect!
