Starting Cultivation During a Trip

Chapter 527 - 261: Fifth Mo and Xu the Sixth! Ten Thousand Evils Tribulation Aspect Returns

Eighty years ago, the world was in turmoil, the Daoist sects faced a great calamity.

Since the last Celestial Master, Zhang Tai Xu, the Dragon Tiger Zhang Family split into north and south branches. The older generations of Zhang Family disciples gradually declined. Zhang Tian Sheng was considered the second-generation disciple of South Zhang, followed by Zhang Lingzong as the third generation, and Zhang Fan as the fourth generation.

"Back in the day, Zhang the Second roared through the Green Forest, his Daoist Skill reaching divine levels, full of bandit aura, ultimately became the chief of the Seven Eastern and Southern Provinces... I always said, every one of them has an inherent restlessness in their bones," Mo Rancun said solemnly.

"His son, learned nothing good, only followed the path of the old Zhang San."

A hint of coldness lingered on Mo Rancun’s face.

The title of the former number one master in the world is feared by people today. The older the age, the more terrified they become of that name.

Three Corpses Daoist, this name is rarely mentioned now. People seem to tacitly avoid talking about him, instead using his youthful names like Zhang San or Zhang Kongming as substitutes.

"Different people have different paths to follow, but..." Xu Xuan Guan said casually.

"Fifth Old Mo, where were you when the South Zhang was exterminated back in the day?"

As soon as this was said, even Zhang Fan’s face changed, and his heart skipped a beat.

Dragon Tiger Zhang Family, split into north and south, but today, how many remain of the South Zhang lineage?

On that day, Zhang Sheng manifested, and he only mentioned a bit about it. Who would have thought that today, they would hear about the destruction of South Zhang from Xu Xuan Guan of Maoshan.

"Liu the Sixth, are you suspecting me?" Mo Rancun said calmly, "If I say it has nothing to do with me, would you believe it?"

"Whether I believe it or not doesn’t matter. There’s always divine justice. If you did it, Zhang the Second’s descendants will naturally find you," Xu Xuan Guan retorted coldly.

"That kid?" Mo Rancun’s expression didn’t change, showing no signs of joy or anger.

"Do you know where he is? Ailao Mountain... unless having no other choice, why hide in such a place? Even after surviving the fifth Great Night Tribulation, it doesn’t make one invincible."

"There are still many ways in this world to restrain him," Mo Rancun commented blandly.

"I’ve heard White Crane Temple has been searching for the Nine Treasures for years."

"Nine Treasures against the Nine Techniques?" Xu Xuan Guan laughed coldly, "Indeed, that’s how the world is. Where there’s strength, there’s a counter. Heaven always leaves a glimmer of hope, no family can reign invincible, eternally undefeated..."

"Even during the days when Zhang Kongming dominated the world, there was still a Chu Chaoran emerging."

"Speaking of which, Fifth Old Mo, have you forgotten?" Xu Xuan Guan paused slightly and looked at Mo Rancun.

"Forgotten what?" Mo Rancun instinctively asked.

"Zhang the Second’s descendant, you once held him when he was a child, and he wet your hand. At that time, Third Li said this child was born to conquer you and might send you off in the future," Xu Xuan Guan whispered firmly.

"Third Li was a madman, what he said was madness. If it’s madness, how can it be believed?" Mo Rancun replied with a cold smile.

At this point, Mo Rancun waved his hand, "Liu the Sixth, I’m not here to reminisce today. These two young friends need to come with me."

As these words were spoken, everyone became tense. Even Yu Hua, a mighty figure in the Sect Leader Realm, was unsettled.

And all because standing before them, speaking these words, was the Qi Yun Mountain Sect Leader, one of the top figures in the current Daoist sects.

"Come with you? Fifth Old Mo, you’re so used to being domineering, do you think this Ping’an Villa is your Qi Yun Mountain? Come and go as you please, take whoever you want?"

Xu Xuan Guan let out a cold snort, a strange light flickering in his deep eyes.

Rumble...

Suddenly, a deafening noise came from the sky. Zhang Fan instinctively looked up and saw outside the courtyard, dark clouds were overwhelming, covering the sky. In the midst of those dark clouds, a blazing flame seemed to be churning, as if what would fall next was not rain, but torrents of flame.

"Lao Mountain Great Flowing Flame!?" Mo Rancun squinted his eyes towards the sky, "Liu the Sixth, your skill is much finer than that kid Li Chengfeng’s."

Li Chengfeng, the proud Sect Leader of Lao Mountain, referred to as "that kid" by Mo Rancun, but it makes sense. Although he is also a Sect Leader of one of the Ten Great Taoist Sects in the world, he is the youngest in age, incomparable in standing and seniority to these elders.

As for the "Lao Mountain Great Flowing Flame," it is the non-transmissible secret of the Lao Mountain lineage.

On that day in Dongshan Province, Zhang Fan had seen Li Chengfeng use this move against the Lord of the Red Palace, truly majestic, the flowing flame was as turbulent as the river, with the True Flame manifesting the immortal soul in a mysterious manner.

Now, Yu Hua’s uncle is performing it, the fire descending from the sky, condensing in the firmament, hidden within the flowing clouds, seemingly even more mysterious than Li Chengfeng’s "Lao Mountain Great Flowing Flame."

Zhang Fan witnessed it, and could not help but feel curious.

Whether it was the Chang Chun Skill from Zhongnan Mountain or the Great Flowing Flame from Lao Mountain, what Xu Xuan Guan was performing were the non-transmissible secrets of other sects.

The most terrifying thing is, he just stands there, no need to form a Dharma Seal, no need to tread the Gang Step, no so-called Daoist Secret Curse. With just a thought, the Daoist Magic appears out of thin air.

This level of cultivation is simply shocking, it shakes the heavens and earth.

"A master, a master even higher than Celestial Master Liu!" A voice seemed to roar inside Zhang Fan’s heart.

He had seen Liu Nanxu make a move, and also seen Li Chengfeng cast magic, but compared to the big shot in front of him, they were ultimately a notch below.

This Xu Xuan Guan, described as obscure, with poor reputation, and even considered an edge member of Maoshan, is simply like a different person from the accounts of Yu Hua and others.
