Lu Yan’s heart suddenly surged with waves of shock, his eyes sparking with brilliance, and he hurriedly asked:
"Senior Sister Ji, where did you get this message?"
Ji Xingyao was somewhat surprised by Lu Yan’s eager attitude and replied:
"This is a legend recorded on the Immortal Stele outside the Muddy Technique Forbidden Land. Anyone who goes to the forbidden land for a trial can see it.
To outsiders, this might just be an overly mythologized legend, but only sects and families with a long history know that no matter how unreal and bizarre the records on the Immortal Stele seem, they are all true historical events."
In an instant, the thoughts in Lu Yan’s mind became clear.
"The Taiyi Immortal destroyed the external demons with one sword, leading to the birth of the Muddy Technique Forbidden Land.
Isn’t this a battle against version invasions, forcibly annihilating the body of This World’s Only One to eliminate the chaos of a version update?
The birth of the forbidden land should be the residual impact of the version invasion, forcibly confined by the Taiyi Immortal to reduce its influence on the Xianxia version!"
Combining myth and the information Lu Yan himself knew, a corner of the Xianxia version seemed to slowly reveal itself to Lu Yan.
Perhaps the remnant of This World’s Only One is not as formidable as the existence behind the Longevity version, but this is ultimately the home field of the Xianxia version.
The Taiyi Immortal, who could sever the invader’s body, naturally has the power to fend off the chaos of the Longevity version, aligning with Zhao Huowang’s information.
After enduring several tormenting occurrences of the Longevity chaos, Lu Yan finally saw a glimmer of hope.
"However, the Taiyi Sect has always been mysterious, with its thirteen main branches passed down through generations without even a proper mountain gate known to the outside world, just some branch bases.
It is not easy for ordinary people to enter the Taiyi Sect, let alone seeking help from the Taiyi Immortal."
Seeing Lu Yan so excited, Ji Xingyao feared that Lu Yan might face setbacks from the Taiyi Sect, so she explained proactively.
But after hearing these words, there was no disappointment in Lu Yan’s eyes; on the contrary, they were full of joy.
"Thank you, Senior Sister Ji, for the information!"
Lu Yan solemnly clasped his hands in salute and said, "To be honest, I have already been admitted to the Taiyi Sect."
Ji Xingyao showed a sudden understanding expression, then seriously said:
"Junior Brother Lu has advanced to Foundation Establishment in just three years, and I can even sense that the grade of Junior Brother Lu’s Dao Foundation is above mine, at least at the Sixth Layer Earth Dao Foundation.
To achieve such accomplishments in just three years, apart from Junior Brother Lu’s astonishing talent, he must also have immense fortune, and joining the Taiyi Sect is only natural."
"The Taiyi Sect has countless branch lines, but the thirteen main branches have been handed down since the founding of the sect, and even their legacy points directly to the legendary Taiyi Immortal.
If Junior Brother Lu can find connections with the thirteen main branches, he will surely find relevant information about the Taiyi Immortal."
Ji Xingyao’s suggestion immediately brought a key figure to Lu Yan’s mind.
Mu Chunqiu is the leader of one of the Taiyi Sect’s thirteen main branches, a peerless genius who reached the Nascent Soul Stage at a hundred years old, and is even believed by the world to have comprehended the Longevity Immortal Technique, with hopes of advancing to the Divinity Transformation Realm.
Such a person should have the qualification to contact the Taiyi Immortal.
Back in the cyber version, Lu Yan had helped He Dongsheng escape from a near-death situation, and Mu Chunqiu, as He Dongsheng’s master, owed Lu Yan a favor, allowing Lu Yan to choose an item from his treasury.
Lu Yan could completely use this connection to approach Mu Chunqiu and then find an opportunity to learn about the Taiyi Immortal.
Although Lu Yan was separated from Mu Chunqiu and the Taiyi Immortal by countless layers, he at least had a clear goal that could bring him a ray of hope.
"This time, the Xianxia version’s stay is six months, and I still have another version-specific privilege available. At worst, I can use this privilege to continue the Xianxia version’s stay for another six months.
A stay of one year, coupled with my accumulation from several previous versions, is not without the chance to contact the Taiyi Immortal to solve the Longevity chaos issue." Check latest chapters at ⓝovelFire.net
Having obtained what he wanted, Lu Yan no longer wished to stay in the Cyan Simurgh Sect.
The Longevity chaos was imminent, and Lu Yan had to seize every second to make an attempt.
Thinking of this, Lu Yan glanced sidelong at the numerous Communication Talisman Swords emitting Nascent Soul auras outside Ji Xingyao’s Cave Mansion peak, and then said:
"Senior Sister Ji just advanced to Golden Core, you must need to stabilize your realm and handle sect affairs, so I won’t disturb you any further."
Ji Xingyao hesitated, wanting to ask him to stay.
Lu Yan had been of great help to her, yet she had not given Lu Yan any reward, making her feel a bit uncomfortable.
Lu Yan immediately saw through Ji Xingyao’s thoughts and proactively said:
"Senior Sister Ji’s information has been of great assistance to me, and even the item from Senior Sister Ji far exceeds its imagined value, it should be me who is taking advantage of Senior Sister Ji."
Lu Yan shook the jade box in his hand containing the remnant of This World’s Only One, whose value, even being just a finger with nearly extinguished Immortal Spiritual Light, was immeasurable and far surpassed those Sunstones.
Ji Xingyao slightly furrowed her delicate brows, shaking her head:
"No matter how precious the treasure, it must be in the hands of someone who knows its worth.
That severed finger is worthless to me, giving it to Junior Brother Lu is just a coincidence, wholly insufficient as compensation for Junior Brother Lu."
After a moment of contemplation, Ji Xingyao spoke up:
