Chapter 433: 432
“I came across this information after extensive verification. The power of State Destiny operates at very high levels that you haven’t reached. You need to know only that the power of State Destiny can erase causal backlash!” Qiu Jin’an cautioned all of them. Their cultivation levels were too low, and they weren’t qualified to know these mysteries yet.
This is information you gain only when you reach the Transcendence Tribulation stage. If he weren’t the head of the Immortal Sect, he wouldn’t be aware of the existence of the power of State Destiny.
Lu Yang agreed wholeheartedly, “Indeed, The power of State Destiny is possessed by the immortals on the imperial side and has relevance with the Dao Fruit; it’s one of the means of immortals. The protected ones of State Destiny can purge all poison, prevent diseases, and can produce enormous power instantaneously. It also has the characteristic of forgetting. The Imperial Teacher of the Great Yu dynasty is also very wary of the power of State Destiny, he dare not offend.”
Qiu Jin’an was slightly startled. Why did it seem like Lu Yang knew more than he did?
Is this the basic knowledge that the Golden Core stage cultivators should have?
Thinking back to his Golden Core stage, he only knew that the Ancient Nameless One had refined the Starland Continent. As for the concepts of immortals and Dao Fruit, he was utterly unfamiliar. Occasionally he would venture into the Secret Realm, a place left behind by the Nascent Soul and Spirit Transformation cultivators, which can only be entered when someone reached the Golden Core stage.
The power of State Destiny has a forgetful effect, and Lu Yang was not affected because he possessed the treasures given to him by the imperial court. Yet, how did he not forget?
Qiu Jin’an pondered for a moment without delving into it. There were countless matters within the Seek Dao Sect that he couldn’t figure out; Lu Yang’s issue was just one of them.
For example, he had been wondering how the nine troublemakers of the Ask Dao Sect ended up together in the vast world of cultivation.
Perhaps, it could only be explained by like attracting like.
“After learning this information, I went to the Seek Dao Sect to find you. The old rascals in the Seek Dao Sect told me you had gone to the Corpse Chasing Sect in the Wild State, so I rushed over immediately to inform you and ran into the Unification stage cultivator from Great Yu attacking you.”
Qiu Jin’an expressed a ‘lucky I arrived in time’ facial expression.
Lu Yang glanced at Qiu Jin’an. It was not a matter of ‘luckily arrived’, the Fairy had informed him, and this old man had been tailing and watching the excitement all the way.
The battle between Qiu Jin’an and Mong Tian caused a great commotion, and the city’s officers from Hanshui City quickly rushed over.
From the battles, the Hanshui city officers deduced that the cultivation levels of the opponents were not low. The highest cultivation level among the officers who rushed from the city was at the Unification stage.
“It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Qiu.” The officers from Hanshui City recognized Qiu Jin’an and greeted him respectfully with cupped fists.
As imperial officers, recognizing the heads of the Five Great Immortal Sects was a basic form of courtesy.
After all, these five sect leaders had both supervisory and law enforcement powers and wielded considerable authority.
It had even happened once before that Daoist Buyu violated the law, and the officials saw that Daoist Buyu had a significant background. They planned to abuse their power for personal gain. Unexpectedly, Daoist Buyu was displeased and directly alerted Emperor Xia, thus leading to the punishment of that officer.
Daoist Buyu also ended up in jail for his crime.
After this incident, both government and non-government officials were shocked. No official dared to commit such abuses anymore, at least not in the face of the Five Great Immortal Sects.
As for Daoist Buyu, he had set a precedent by having himself jailed.
“You are…” Qiu Jin’an didn’t recognize the man in front of him.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
“I am the Sima of Wild State, An Ping.”
“Ah, it turns out to be Lord An.” Although they had never met before, Qiu Jin’an still managed to show an ‘ah, so it’s you’ face, pretending that he had just remembered.
“When I was in the city, I saw this place emitting raging fire and the Big Sun Hanging in the Sky. I don’t know what happened here. Could Fellow Daoist Qiu tell me about it?”
“Just now, I encountered a Unification stage cultivator from Great Yu. After confronting him, the adversary was defeated and fled frantically.”
“From the information disclosed by the opponent, the current disaster caused by ghosts in the city is his doing. I just don’t know if he has any accomplices.”
Lord An’s expression became stern. This matter was not trivial. The current ghost disaster was a matter of utmost importance. They had always suspected that the Nine Nethers Cult was behind it. Now, it seems that it was the work of a cultivator from the Great Yu dynasty!
“Could Fellow Daoist Qiu have a detailed conversation with the governor?”
Qiu Jin’an laughed, “I happen to have something to discuss with the governor.”
“That’s great, but who are these people?”
“These three are disciples of the Seek Dao Sect. The one leading them is the young disciple of Old Buyu.”
Hearing Lu Yang’s identity, Lord An’s face turned utterly solemn.
He was a rising star. When Daoist Buyu was active, he hadn’t been born yet, and he essentially grew up listening to the legends of Daoist Buyu. He was well aware of how unfortunate it was to become Daoist Buyu’s disciple.
“This one is a disciple of the Corpse Chasing Sect. This drowned ghost and the unconscious mortal lady are involved in insurance fraud. I was just about to hand them over to you for handling, they have an accomplice, Liu San from the Baishui village.”
Without needing for Lord An to give an order, his subordinates already had the drowned ghost and the unconscious Huang Zao in custody. Someone was also rushing to Baishui village to arrest Liu San.
They no longer needed the intervention of Lu Yang and the others in the subsequent events.
“Wait for me for a moment.”
Before leaving, Lu Yang said this and then, under everyone’s doubtful gaze, reached into the dried-up cold lake. Saltwater continuously gushed out from his sleeve and filled up the cold lake.
The water drawn from the cold lake had been stored in the Village in the Palm.
Lord An was utterly astounded. Lu Yang was so young, yet he had already learnt the Universe within the Sleeve?
Seeing Lord An’s astonished expression, Qiu Jin’an laughed heartily, “Surprising, isn’t it? Just now, Lu Yang fought a Unification cultivator from Great Yu who had disbanded his cultivation and started over, and won with ease. His combat potential is sufficient to declare him the number one person among the young generation.”
Although his own disciple could also defeat that Unification cultivator from the Great Yu dynasty who had disbanded his cultivation to start over, she definitely couldn’t do it as easily as Lu Yang did.
During the battle, Qiu Jin’an observed Lu Yang. He noticed that Lu Yang did not use his Golden Core throughout the battle. Qiu Jin’an also suspected that Lu Yang had more powerful methods which he hadn’t deployed.
At Lu Yang’s age, he was certainly not as powerful as Lu Yang.
Truly worthy of being a disciple taught by Yun Zhi.
“So strong?!” Lord An was once again shocked. He hadn’t expected that Qiu Jin’an would give such a high evaluation.
Given Qiu Jin’an’s experience and knowledge, his judgment could not be wrong. There was also no need for him to exaggerate since Lu Yang was a disciple of the Seek Dao Sect, not the Five Elements Sect.
The Seek Dao Sect was still continuously producing talents.
Zhao Po secretly acknowledged that it was so indeed. He had noticed Lu Yang’s ferocious demeanor during the fight and had a faint suspicion that Lu Yang could be the leader among the young generation. However, due to his lack of experience, he didn’t rush to a conclusion.
“Did you hear that? I am the leader among the younger generation!” Lu Yang boasted triumphantly, like a victorious peacock, showing off in front of Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu.
“Brother Lu is so impressive!” Man Gu applauded sincerely.
Meng Jingzhou sneered, Lu Yang’s tail was almost lifting to the sky, “What do you count as the leader of the young generation, the Eldest Senior Sister is the real one.”
Lu Yang couldn’t help but laugh, “You’re just jealous of me, Eldest Senior Sister is not a part of the younger generation…”
Seeing Meng Jingzhou’s playful and dangerous gaze, Lu Yang suddenly realized that something was wrong with what he had just said and stopped promptly, glaring at Meng Jingzhou.
Meng Jingzhou was looking in every direction, pretending that he was not the one who dug the pit.
…
Under the guidance of Lord An, the group met the newly appointed Governor of Wild State without any surprises.
