Peach Blossom Divine Medical God-Chapter 1824 - 1818: Genuine Expression of Emotion
Upon hearing that his own Daoist field had been entered by the Blood Wolf Sect, Liu Daoist could not control his anger.
"These treacherous methods are getting more outrageous, daring to set foot on Lion Tiger Mountain!" Liu Daoist exclaimed angrily.
"Uncle Master, it’s precisely because of our Lion Tiger Mountain’s transcendent status over the years that no one dared to offend it, which led to some complacency. But now, rest assured Uncle Master; after the last incident, the Sect Leader has rearranged the sentry posts. There absolutely will not be any accidents in our important areas," the elder quickly explained upon seeing Liu Daoist angry.
"That’s more like it. Despite anything else, that kid Li does a decent job as the Sect Leader," Liu Daoist suddenly chuckled, saying.
Afterward, without anyone saying more, they directly went to the stone wall.
"Uncle Master."
The elder responsible for guarding the stone wall immediately came down to salute Liu Daoist on seeing him.
The surrounding disciples, all skilled in martial arts, also clasped their fists in salutation, collectively calling out Uncle Grandmaster.
"Alright, no need for formalities. Open the cave gate; I want to go in," Liu Daoist waved casually.
"Okay."
Seeing this, the third elder didn’t waste time and, just like last time, used his great strength to forcibly open the mountain gate of the ancient cave.
Rumble... The pitch-dark corridor was revealed.
Looking at the entrance of the dark ancient cave, Liu Daoist, usually composed, was truly excited.
That emotion arose genuinely from within.
"The ancestral ancient cave! Heaven has eyes, not letting our lineage perish!"
Liu Daoist spoke excitedly, kneeling down on the ground with a thud: "Ancestor, your unworthy disciple and descendant, Liu Qingyun, swears! I will certainly revitalize our sect and resuscitate the glory of our lineage."
After taking his vow, Liu Daoist kowtowed a few times forcefully toward the depths of the cave.
Watching everything Liu Daoist did, everyone present was deeply moved.
Although not of one lineage, the two sects have shared a common ancestor and their Daoist fields have always been on Lion Tiger Mountain; their bond is quite deep.
Otherwise, the Sect Leader and elders of Lion Tiger Observatory wouldn’t acknowledge Liu Daoist as Uncle Master in name only.
"Alright, young friend Chen Yang, accompany this poor Taoist inside."
After finishing everything, Liu Daoist got up lightly and prepared to go inside.
"Okay." Chen Yang nodded slightly, also preparing to enter.
However, he was stopped by the two elders.
"Friend Chen, you cannot go in," the elder said solemnly.
"Hm? Why can’t he go in?" Before Chen Yang could ask, Liu Daoist turned around and looked at the elder.
"Uncle Master, the ancestral cave of the Second Patriarch has now become the highest confidential place on our Lion Tiger Mountain. Even average disciples are not allowed in, how can we let an outsider in?" the elder said.
"I trust young friend Chen Yang, furthermore, I have no cultivation at all. If I were to encounter something, what should I do?"
"Uncle Master, if you are concerned about safety, we can send a trusted disciple to escort you in," the elder insisted firmly.
Liu Daoist also became irate.
"So, in the end, you’re scheming? I just want young friend Chen Yang to accompany me inside. You won’t allow it? Fine, I’ll go find that kid Li to discuss it."
The three elders were utterly helpless.
After some contemplation, they eventually agreed to let Chen Yang in.
Since Chen Yang had already been in there before, allowing him in again shouldn’t be too problematic.
"Hmph, now that’s the right attitude."
Seeing that they had agreed, Liu Daoist did not continue to seek out the Lion Tiger Sect Leader and immediately went in with Chen Yang.
As soon as the two entered, the stone gate closed with a rumble behind them, immersing the place in silence.
It was just like the last time they were here, nothing was different.
Since it was his second visit, Chen Yang was familiar with the place, and he led Liu Daoist through it effortlessly.
Walking through the tunnel, seeing the full view of the Daoist field, Liu Daoist’s expression was filled with excitement.
"Young friend Chen Yang, the bronze great hall on the mountain across, that’s the place you mentioned, right?" Liu Daoist asked, pointing over.
Chen Yang nodded, "That’s right, that’s the place of inheritance. The cattail hassock I took was from there."
"Great, how do we get over there? Quickly take me there."
Liu Daoist was somewhat impatient.
"This way." Understanding Liu Daoist’s feelings, Chen Yang didn’t dilly-dally but led him down and then continued upward along the bluestone path.
When he was here last time, certain areas were suppressed by formations, and even elderly individuals could not enter.
Yet, for some reason, Liu Daoist could move around freely here, without feeling any pressure, which was very mysterious.
"Could it be that because you’re a descendant of the Crimson Cloud lineage, the formation allows you to move freely?" Chen Yang was deeply puzzled.
"That could be it. Our Crimson Cloud lineage is lesser-known compared to Lion Tiger Observatory, largely due to differences in cultivation methodology," Liu Daoist nodded and continued: "Our Crimson Cloud lineage focuses on the study of feng shui and formations."
"Our ancestor’s formations are profoundly intricate. It is rumored they can contend with those in the Divine Phase Realm; hence, creating a person-identifying formation is not surprising."
Liu Daoist’s words made Chen Yang increasingly astonished.
Is the Divine Phase Realm so formidable? The formation has been passed down for a thousand years, yet it still maintains such a strong effect?
It is simply unbelievable.
"Honestly, I grow more curious about the achievements of ancient mighty figures. What was the Pre-Qin period world really like?" Chen Yang couldn’t help but say.
Liu Daoist, seeing the surprise on Chen Yang’s face, smiled slightly, "In time, you will understand. As for now, it’s not something I’m at liberty to discuss."
"Hmm." Chen Yang felt curious, but seeing Liu Daoist’s reluctance, he didn’t press for answers.
The two continued upward and soon reached the second area.
At that time, Chen Yang and Qin Chengxuan started their search from here and then entered the bronze great hall.
"Indeed, it matches the descriptions in the books perfectly. The armory, elixir room, formation chamber... all these buildings are here. This is the Daoist field of our ancestor," Liu Daoist murmured.
"The bronze great hall is up there. Shall we go straight in, or what?" Chen Yang gestured toward the grand hall ahead.
"Let’s go straight in. You’ve already been here with the people from Lion Tiger Observatory, I assume there’s nothing left inside. No point dawdling," Liu Daoist said, striding toward the bronze great hall.
Chen Yang shook his head helplessly and followed.
Upon entering the great hall, Liu Daoist was once again filled with emotion.
"Ancestral land! Ancestor, your unworthy descendant has returned!" Liu Daoist prostrated before the empty great hall, knocking his head, with his eyes welling up, genuine feelings flowing forth.
On this day, Liu Daoist didn’t know how many times he did this.
Yet it didn’t evoke any unusual reactions but moved everyone instead.
