Main Hall
At this mont, Zhang Chang'an presented a small jar to Zhang Jian as if offering a treasure.
"Father, this is a treasure I found in the city!"
It was a small pottery jar, but its interior seed cast of tal, with a unique texture.
Then Zhang Chang'an picked a few red dates from the side to show Zhang Jian.
The red dates were thrown into the pottery jar, and visible to the naked eye, they instantly dissolved, disappearing without a trace.
However, when Zhang Chang'an put in a copper coin, the coin remained intact.
Seeing this, Zhang Jian's eyes flickered slightly. He realized that this small jar was likely a unique Magical Treasure capable of absorbing spiritual energy from objects to repair itself.
The red dates were from the large date tree in the Zhang Family Residence.
Zhang Jian often ditated and cultivated under this tree. It had absorbed the Spiritual chanism from him and had turned into a Spirit Tree, possessing Spirituality and naturally containing Spiritual chanism.
Zhang Jian's gaze moved past and landed back on Zhang Chang'an's waist. He noticed that there was another object in Zhang Chang'an's pouch that contained Spiritual chanism.
He asked, "Chang'an, what's in your pouch?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Chang'an furrowed her brows, glanced at her pouch, and after a mont, replied.
"Father, this treasure is sothing I found by the river; it's mine...!"
Seeing this, Qi Yuhua put on a stern face and said, "Chang'an, listen!"
Zhang Jian glanced at Qi Yuhua and smiled, saying, "Chang'an, Dad just wants to take a look. I'm not taking your things!"
Hearing this, Zhang Chang'an reluctantly took off her pouch and handed it to Zhang Jian.
Zhang Jian took out many things from the pouch, like Gold Beans and so plant seeds, so well-polished shells, and his eyes fell on a small, toothpick-like 'Copper Sword'.
With just one look, Zhang Jian recognized this as an inherited treasure, likely from so Immortal Sect Dao Lineage, containing a deeply orthodox Dao Lineage's power.
With a flick of his eyes, Zhang Jian casually activated the power within this toothpick-like 'Copper Sword'. Imdiately, a small sword was unleashed, its Sword Intent faintly visible, carrying an intense sharpness. Runes flowed within the Sword Aura, transforming into a Foundation Establishnt Technique known as the Red City Technique.
This bore a resemblance to the scroll Zhang Yi obtained back then.
"Red City Technique, from which Sect's Foundation Establishnt technique did this originate?"
Zhang Jian's gaze flickered, and he looked at Zhang Chang'an.
Chang'an is his daughter, and he can be sure no one has designs on her.
She bears a Yang Spirit Seal he left; any cultivator approaching her would imdiately alert him.
That ans Chang'an's fortune activated this opportunity.
However, Zhang Jian had no impression of the Red City Technique; he planned to ask his brothers in the Sect about it.
Then Zhang Jian took another look at the pottery jar. With a flow of magical power, the jar returned to its "true form."
He watched as the jar gradually transford into a fiery red, entirely red copper small jar.
A flash of Spiritual Light blood from within.
"A damaged Spirit Treasure?"
Zhang Jian's Yang God Divine Sense swept across, and his eyes flickered, looking at Zhang Chang'an.
This fortune truly left him speechless.
Zhang Jian infused a bit of Yang God's Magical Power into it. A mont later, his eyebrows twitched as a ray of red light erged from the fiery red jar, revealing an extraordinary basic technique within.
It was a High Tier legacy item.
He knew its origin!
"Qianling Fire Mysterious Scripture, isn't this the Fire Attribute Foundation Establishnt technique from the Five Elents Immortal Sect...!"
Zhang Jian's eyes flickered.
His daughter seems to possess deep fortune.
In such a large city as Haojing, there are indeed so treasures, but most have already fallen into the hands of Dong Shen Temple. The remaining valuable Magical Artifacts are few and far between, yet they ended up in Zhang Chang'an's hands, and two of them no less.
How could this be explained by re good luck?
At the sa ti, Zhang Jian's Yang God Divine Sense encompassed the small jar, pondering its mysteries, and mastered its intricacies.
This item was known as the Fire God Jar, a Golden Body Level Spirit Treasure.
While the Golden Body Level is the lowest level of spirit treasures, their power is still imnse.
It can refine various Spirit dicines and possesses the capability to purify the purity of Spiritual Objects!
This supportive ability is extrely valuable!
There is also a strong refinent capability!
It likely belonged to a Primordial Spirit expert of the Five Elents Immortal Sect who perished.
Zhang Jian sighed; he had expended great effort to obtain a Creation Level Spirit Treasure.
And Zhang Chang'an had a casual outing by the river and picked one up.
Even if it was damaged.
This is astounding!
Zhang Jian pondered deeply.
anwhile, he acquired Mystical Techniques of two Major Sects.
Chang'an actually had the option to choose one as her Foundation Establishnt technique.
However, she certainly couldn't choose the one from the Five Elents Immortal Sect now.
At such a sensitive ti, if he lets Zhang Chang'an choose the Foundation Establishnt technique of the Five Elents Immortal Sect, wouldn't that imply so kind of involvent with them?
This situation, under these circumstances, would be hard to explain away.
There's no need to invite such trouble.
Zhang Jian decided to inquire further.
In fact, there's another alternative; he could choose to send Zhang Chang'an into the Tongshan Dao Lineage.
But since Zhang Yi has already entered the Tongshan Dao Lineage, Zhang Jian deed it unnecessary to send Zhang Chang'an in as well.
The future of the Zhang Family required broad influence.
The Tongshan Dao Lineage, with him and Zhang Yi there, was sufficient.
There's no need to put all eggs in one basket.
...
Within the Tongshan Dao Lineage, Zhang Jian quickly acquired the information he sought.
The Red City Technique is a Foundation Establishnt technique spread by another Major Sect, the Guangling Immortal Sect.
Like the Five Elents Immortal Sect, the Guangling Immortal Sect is also an Immortal Sect, with the Five Elents Immortal Sect being more prominent, but the Guangling Immortal Sect has an ancient lineage, rumored to be founded by an ancient Outer World Saint, with a venerable origin, claiming to be the orthodoxy of Outer World Immortal Sects.
Its fundantal inheritances are the Three Treasures Scripture and Red City Celestial Book, especially its Escape Technique, the Vertical Earth Golden Light Technique, renown throughout the Two Realms Region.
"Three Treasures Scripture, Vertical Earth Golden Light Technique, this sect seems to have a significant background?"
Zhang Jian pondered internally.
He's not sure if it's just a coincidence or if it truly has so connection to the sect he imagines.
Five days later, still within the Court, Zhang Jian heard news: On the afternoon, victory reports arrived from the border.
The Divine Strategy Army launched a night raid from the city, winning with fewer troops, defeating the million-strong alliance led by Grandmaster of Beichu, Tuoba Zhenwu.
In one night, teors fell from the sky, causing fires that spread throughout camps, leaving the enemy's million-strong army in chaos and disarray.
This battle threw all of Haojing City into a frenzy.
The people celebrated with song and dance.
Standing upon the Imperial City, Zhang Jian could remotely hear the deafening cheers from within and beyond the city walls.
He remained calm; his face bore a slight smile.
But the actual battle report revealed that Qianhai True Monarch, utilizing King Jun Golden Man's power, fought a trendous battle against three old demons of the Beichu Demon Sect, slaying Taiyin Demon Gods Yin Wujiu, the Blood Demon Monarch, and heavily wounding the Blood Sea Saint Monarch, Taiyin Demon Palace Xinyue Hall Master, achieving a decisive victory over the demons.
The main General of the Divine Strategy Army, An Ruming, seized the mont to pursue and crush the retreating Beichu army, using fifty thousand cavalries to break through Beichu's formations, successfully segnting and defeating the Beichu army.
This was a great victory.
This victory brought relief to the civil and military officials in the Court, and even many cultivators breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Zhang Jian wasn't overly optimistic!
This was just the beginning. If Daqian wanted to regain montum, they would need to annex Beichu before all Sects reacted and break into Beichu's capital for hope.
