Chapter 1558 Origin
Duan Qing felt a black screen in front of his eyes. Before he could see the situation clearly, he felt a strong wind coming towards him. He subconsciously summoned the true form of the black pot and prepared to defend himself.
But after seeing the situation clearly, Duan Qing was greatly relieved and put the black pot away without making a sound.
In the low sky in front of the crowd, a huge strange bird was flying towards the distance at an astonishing speed.
The strong wind just now must have been caused by the strange bird flying at a low altitude.
When they found the strange bird, some people in the crowd couldn't help but chase the strange bird.
A strange bird attracted forty or fifty people, which was almost half of the people who entered the Tianding Secret Realm except the Tianding Sect.
Although Duan Qing was very curious about the strange bird, he didn't chase it because he was thinking about other things. Instead, he looked at the surrounding environment.
At this moment, there was an altar about several dozen feet in size. The surface of the altar was covered with moss, revealing the breath of time. There was a broken stone pillar at each corner of the altar, and the original appearance could no longer be seen.
At this time, a light blue light flashed on the altar, and dozens of Tianding Sect members led by Wang Zilai, the leader of Tianding Sect, as well as Yu Bai and Yang Huang, also appeared on the altar.
Seeing that so many people had suddenly disappeared just after entering, Wang Zilai was obviously a little surprised, but he didn't care too much.
"The opening time of our sect's Tianding secret realm is one year. You can move freely within this year, but you must return to the altar before that."
After explaining, Wang Zilai waved his hand directly, indicating that the Tianding Sect members behind him could move freely.
After receiving Wang Zilai's order, the fifty Tianding Sect members immediately divided into ten teams and scattered around.
As the leader of Tianding Sect, Wang Zilai remained where he was, with no intention of taking any action.
Seeing this, dozens of people from other forces also found their own direction and left the altar.
Soon, there were only a dozen people left on the altar, including Wang Zilai, the leader of Tianding Sect, Sword Immortals Yu Bai and Yang Huang, Shen Ge of Soul Search Sect, Xue Meijun and Xue Qiao of Suzaku Clan, and four people from Zuo Shen Sect including Duan Qing.
Among them, Shen Ge of Soul Search Sect had the most obvious attitude, his eyes always swept over Wang Zilai, as if he was staring at Wang Zilai to death.
Wang Zilai ignored Shen Ge's gaze, and even sat cross-legged, looking at his nose and heart calmly.
Noticing the strange atmosphere at the scene, Zuo Yuanji smiled awkwardly, then walked in front of Yu Bai and bowed respectfully to Yu Bai.
"Greetings, Master Yu."
Yu Bai stood with his hands behind his back and nodded gently: "Well, how is Senior Brother Jing doing recently?"
"Thanks to Master Yu, the Sect Master is doing well recently."
"By the way, why did Master Yu have such an interest in coming to this Tianding Secret Realm?"
Yu Bai glanced at Wang Zilai who was sitting with his eyes closed a few feet away, and explained casually: "I was invited by Daoyou Wang to help Daoyou Wang."
"So that's it!"
"Then I won't bother you!"
With that, Zuo Yuanji wanted to leave.
"Wait a minute!"
At this time, Yu Bai suddenly called Zuo Yuanji.
Zuo Yuanji looked back at Yu Bai in confusion: "What does Master Yu want?"
Yu Bai pointed at Yang Huang standing next to him: "This is Master's new disciple Yang Huang. Come with me to see the world."
"My fellow Daoist Wang and I have other important matters. If it's not too much trouble, Junior Brother Zuo is willing to take this humble disciple to visit the Tianding Secret Realm."
Zuo Yuanji followed Yu Bai's gaze and looked at Yang Huang, and was very surprised.
Master Yu actually accepted a disciple!
It's rare.
Although he was surprised, Zuo Yuanji didn't show it on his face. Instead, he smiled and said, "Haha, what are you talking about, Master."
"Let's go, Junior Brother Yang."
"Yeah!"
Yang Huang hummed lightly, his eyes passed over Zuo Yuanji, glanced at Duan Qing behind him, and then followed Zuo Yuanji to Duan Qing and the others.
After returning to the team, Zuo Yuanji didn't say anything else. He just glanced at Duan Qing and the other two, then sacrificed a spirit boat, and led the others away from the altar in a hurry.
After Duan Qing and his companions left, Xue Meijun and Xue Qiao had no intention of staying for long. They chose a direction roughly the same as Duan Qing and his companions and quickly disappeared into the horizon.
For a moment, only Wang Zilai, Yu Bai, and Shen Ge from the Soul Search Sect were left on the altar.
None of them spoke again, and the entire altar fell into a deathly silence.
…
After flying dozens of miles away, Zuo Yuanji breathed a sigh of relief. He looked around at the people on the spirit boat and found that Duan Qing looked confused.
“What’s wrong, disciple?”
Duan Qing glanced at Yang Huang, and couldn’t help his curiosity.
“Master, is Senior Yu from my Zuo Shen Sect?”
Before this, he had always thought that Yu Bai had no sect or school, and was a casual cultivator.
But now it seems that this is not the case.
Zuo Yuanji looked sideways at the altar behind him, nodded first, then shook his head: "Yes, and no."
"Oh, Uncle Zuo, don't keep me in suspense!"
Zuo Zicong, who was standing by, couldn't help but complain when he saw Zuo Yuanji's suspenseful look, and then rushed to explain.
"Strictly speaking, Senior Yu is not from my Zuo Shen Sect, but has a close relationship with my Zuo Shen Sect."
"The founders of my Zuo Shen Sect were originally a pair of Taoist companions, named Zuo Yangzi and Tian Yinzi. Countless years ago, Zuo Yangzi was the first to cultivate to the Dao Saint Realm, while Tian Yinzi was still stuck in the Dao Extreme Realm and could not break through."
"Tianyinzi Patriarch was strong-willed by nature and could not stand the fact that he was inferior to Zuoyangzi Patriarch, so he left Zuoshen Sect in anger and became a casual cultivator."
"With his pride, Tianyinzi Patriarch also successfully advanced to the Dao Saint realm, but after that, Tianyinzi Patriarch never returned to Zuoshen Sect and never admitted that he was a member of Zuoshen Sect."
"Later, Tianyinzi Patriarch accepted Senior Yubai as his disciple. Although Tianyinzi Patriarch was no longer a member of my Zuoshen Sect, he was after all the Taoist partner of my Zuoyangzi Patriarch. Senior Yubai, his disciple, naturally had an inseparable connection with my Zuoshen Sect."
Hearing this, Duan Qing suddenly realized.
So that's how it is.
I didn't expect that Zuoshen Sect not only had one of the only eight Dao Saints of the human race, but also another foreign Dao Saint had such a connection with Zuoshen Sect.
No wonder Zuoshen Sect's signboard is so effective!
However, Yang Huang, who was once a fellow disciple, has now become Yu Bai's disciple, which means that according to seniority, he should call Yang Huang "Uncle Master".
When Duan Qing thought of this, he felt a little depressed.
At this moment, Yang Huang, who had been silent since boarding the spirit boat, suddenly spoke.
"I heard that Daoist Fellow Duan went back to Tianming Star a few years ago?"
