Chapter 3 Muddy the Waters
Hua Yunfei's plans went far beyond that.
He had another goal in mind while taking this opportunity.
There is an incredible opportunity that may not have been discovered by anyone at this time: the Devouring Demon Cover!
He remembered that the Devouring Demon Gai first appeared in the underground palace of Lizhou a few years later in the novel "Covering the Sky".
At that time, the unscrupulous Taoist priest used his broken bowl, and the Devouring Demon Lid was inside.
At that time, his cultivation level was not high, and he struggled to control it; it was clearly something he had just acquired.
If Duan De had already mastered the Devouring Demon Cover before this, he would have used it to seize the treasure during the battle at the Demon Emperor's Yin Tomb.
Therefore, Mo Gai must still be in the Cloud Break Mountains at this time!
Hundreds of years ago, even the notorious bandit Tu Tian could easily find the body of the jar there. Why couldn't Hua Yunfei, a practitioner of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art, find the lid?
The Devouring Heaven Demon Art, combined with the Devouring Heaven Demon Jar, is such a treasure that it should be put to my use!
What a stroke of luck to get half an Imperial Weapon for free!
Hua Yunfei had to consider whether this might be his only chance in his life!
……
Currently, all the major forces in the Southern Region have gathered at the Tai Xuan Sect, and naturally, the younger generation is among them.
Hua Yunfei immediately extended an invitation to their young successors, inviting them to visit Xingfeng.
Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue were naturally among them.
As the most outstanding young generation of the Tai Xuan Sect, Hua Yunfei has deliberately concealed his talents over the years, resulting in his fame not being as great as that of figures like the Divine Body Ji Haoyue and the Holy Son of Yao Guang.
However, even in the Southern Region, he is a first-rate genius, and his own cultivation is among the best in the Four Extremes Secret Realm.
Furthermore, being part of the Tai Xuan Sect, the younger generation of successors from various powerful factions naturally wouldn't refuse Hua Yunfei's invitation, and thus a small-scale gathering began.
One of the peaks of Xingfeng.
The scenery here is beautiful, with Ganoderma lucidum and other rare plants growing on the cliffs, and misty clouds and babbling brooks.
On a grassy field, a group of young talents gathered together.
Among them are Yao Xi, the Holy Maiden from the Yao Guang Holy Land; Ji Haoyue, the Divine King Body of the ancient Ji family; and Li Youyou, the successor of the Xiaoyao Sect, which is on par with the Tai Xuan Sect...
More than a dozen outstanding individuals were invited to attend.
"You are all outstanding individuals, and I am truly sorry for my hasty invitation," Hua Yunfei said with a smile, raising his glass to everyone.
"Brother Hua, you're too kind. It's us who are bothering you..."
At first, the group chatted happily, exchanging their cultivation experiences or interesting stories from the cultivation world, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
As the host, Hua Yunfei, with his extraordinary temperament, naturally got along well with this group of people.
Among this group, the most eye-catching is Yao Xi, the Holy Maiden of Yao Guang.
This woman was dressed in white, pure and holy as snow, as ethereal as a secluded orchid in a valley, with unparalleled beauty and graceful bearing. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was a celestial being who had mistakenly descended to the mortal world.
However, Hua Yunfei's first attraction upon seeing this woman was not her stunning beauty, but rather the infamous "Yakuza-style undergarment" from the original novel...
Just as he was lost in thought with mixed feelings, Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue arrived.
As expected, just like in the original story, the dignified Emperor Ye and his brother-in-law started fighting the very first time they met.
When the Divine King Ji Haoyue learned that her most beloved younger sister had been spending months with a young, blond-haired boy, she was furious.
In addition, the divine body sensed that the Ancient Sacred Body had automatically generated a desire to resist, so Ji Haoyue directly used the "Bright Moon Rising from the Sea" phenomenon to test Ye Fan.
Ji Haoyue, who had finally been suppressed to the Divine Bridge Realm, was evenly matched with Ye Fan. At this moment, Hua Yunfei finally made his move.
He danced in his blue robes, ethereal and otherworldly, and entered the arena, separating the two:
"Let's stop here, you two. It's a rare occasion for everyone to gather at my Tai Xuan Sect. Today, we're here simply to enjoy a drink and have some fun."
Then the group finally sat down, chatting and raising their glasses frequently.
The topic inevitably leads to the discussion of various powerful physical constitutions in the world today.
Recalling the scene where Ye Fan and the Divine Body were evenly matched just now, everyone couldn't help but ask curiously if Ye Fan also had a special physique.
This group of people appeared polite on the surface, but in reality, they all wished they could dissect Ye Fan on the spot and study him thoroughly.
Seeing Ye Fan, who was the center of attention and looked like he had a huge head, Hua Yunfei chuckled to himself, but on the surface he remained calm and didn't say much.
He knew that Ye Fan was probably trying to muddy the waters and divert the group's attention.
As expected, Ye Fan addressed the crowd the next moment, saying, "Everyone, a momentous event that will shake the Eastern Wilderness is about to occur..."
Hua Yunfei's spirits lifted. Here they come!
He immediately picked up the conversation, "Oh? Is that so?"
Ye Fan looked at everyone, ignoring Ji Ziyue's attempts to stop him, and said, "In the Southern Region, everyone has heard of the Bronze Immortal Palace, right? Now it has reappeared!"
"What?! The Bronze Immortal Palace?!"
Before Hua Yunfei could respond, the Holy Maiden of Yaoguang exclaimed in surprise.
A look of astonishment appeared on Yao Xi's beautiful face as she asked Ye Fan, "Is what Brother Ye said true?"
The others also looked at Ye Fan with serious expressions, eager for confirmation.
"Brother Ye, did you witness this with your own eyes? Did you discover anything else?"
Hua Yunfei kept guiding Ye Fan to reveal various details about the Bronze Immortal Palace.
Both of them wanted to escalate the situation, so they were now in complete agreement.
Upon learning that the Bronze Immortal Palace was located in a large lake not far from the Tai Xuan Sect, and upon hearing from Ye Fan that it was surrounded by endless primordial energy of all things, they were overjoyed.
These people were so envious that they couldn't sit still any longer.
They hurriedly left, wishing they could be the first to arrive at the scene with their elders and mentors.
Watching everyone rush to leave, Hua Yunfei was secretly delighted; his goal had been achieved!
However, seeing everyone's excited expressions, Hua Yunfei secretly shook his head.
For the average person, entering a place like the Bronze Immortal Palace would be a certain death.
It's not that we shouldn't go, but rather that we should go slowly, deliberately, and with a good rhythm; let those who are prepared go first, let those with profound knowledge go first, so that those who go first can inspire those who go later.
We must proceed according to the specific circumstances; we cannot act blindly, but must act strategically.
The once bustling venue was now completely empty, and Hua Yunfei took the opportunity to report the matter to the head of the Tai Xuan Sect.
Because Ye Fan revealed this in public, not only the entire Tai Xuan Sect, but also other major forces within the Tai Xuan Sect now know about it, so it can no longer be kept secret!
The news caused a sensation when powerful figures from the Yao Guang Holy Land and the Ji family personally went to verify its authenticity.
Standing atop Star Peak, Hua Yunfei watched as streaks of light shot skyward. At that moment, his old servant behind him transmitted a message to him:
"Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue have special physiques. I have already arranged for someone to take advantage of the situation and extract their essence. Just wait for news."
Hua Yunfei sighed inwardly, realizing that these two, just like in the original story, couldn't escape being hunted down.
In order to lure away the other members of the ruthless faction around him, they had no choice but to make things difficult for Ye Fan.
The protector added, "The Bronze Immortal Palace is closely related to the Mother Qi of All Things, but it is also extremely dangerous. I will go; you should go into seclusion and cultivate."
Hua Yunfei sneered inwardly, thinking that the old man was afraid that the demonic fetus he had painstakingly nurtured would die in vain.
Or perhaps they feared he might gain an opportunity from the Bronze Immortal Palace and thus escape their control, or perhaps both.
But he still looked at the other person and nodded silently.
The old man in front of him disappeared without a sound, and Hua Yunfei did not sense the slightest fluctuation.
The power of the second level of Sendai is terrifying!
At least until the ancient clans emerge and the overall environment of heaven and earth changes, the second-level immortal is definitely not a pushover!
That's someone who dares to contend for immortality, wielding an imperial weapon; at worst, they could crush the "temporary ceiling of combat power" in the Central Plains!
