Even though he punished so people on the flying boat, the offering did not show up.
But this ti, he had no other choice. If he didn’t resolve the hidden danger of Taiyin quickly, Yun Ying would gradually "die," so he had to seek help from the cultivator with the highest cultivation on the flying boat.
"Junior Chen Nan wishes to visit Senior. Please be accommodating."
Standing at the top layer of the stairs, Chen Nan cupped his hand and bowed. The top layer had only one room, protected by restrictions outside, flickering with a faint glow.
For a long ti, there was no response from the room.
Chen Nan sighed. Just as he was about to leave, the restriction outside the room suddenly disappeared. He was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped into the room.
An elder with an immortal-like deanor sat in the center of the room, his long beard reaching his chest. He smiled slightly at Chen Nan and beckoned gently, causing a tea table and a ditation cushion to appear before him.
"Sit."
Chen Nan sat opposite the elder, and the teapot on the table seed to be caught by an invisible hand, pouring him a cup of tea, the fragrance overflowing.
But he had no mood to taste the tea, quickly cupping his hands as he said, "Senior, I am here seeking help."
The elder chuckled: "You’ve been making quite a commotion on the flying boat lately."
Chen Nan’s heart tightened. Was this senior displeased?
"Senior, it’s the junior’s fault..."
But before he could finish, the elder interrupted: "No need to apologize. The flying boat is filled with smoke and pollution; it’s good for soone to manage it a bit. Isn’t it more peaceful now?"
"I know why you ca, but I can’t help you with this matter. Taiyin is not a simple heaven and earth spiritual object; it holds a greater secret."
Chen Nan felt very disappointed but still bowed his hands and said, "Thank you, Senior, for telling straightforwardly. Junior bids farewell."
Unexpectedly, the elder did not let him leave but pointed to the tea in front of him.
Although he didn’t know what it ant, Chen Nan picked up the teacup and took a sip, nodding: "Thank you for the hospitality, Senior. It is indeed good tea. However, I wish to save my companion, so I won’t stay long."
As he rose and walked to the door, he heard the elder’s voice again: "Although I cannot help you, I do know soone who once fused with Taiyin and is still well."
Hearing this, Chen Nan’s heart surged with joy, and he quickly asked, "May I ask where this person is, who they are?"
"Don’t rush. The flying boat will arrive in half a month. Being anxious now is useless. Why not play a ga of chess with ?"
The elder brushed his hand across the tea table, which instantly vanished, transforming into a chessboard with two boxes of chess pieces atop it.
Chen Nan had looked at chess manuals, though only out of boredom, and had a superficial understanding of Go. Seeing the elder’s gaze, he nodded.
The elder was right; being impatient now was futile. He simply couldn’t suppress the Taiyin within Yun Ying.
So he sat back down and started playing chess with the elder.
More than half a month flew by, and Chen Nan and the elder completed the final ga, with the result being a crushing defeat, consistent with every other ga over the past half month.
Chen Nan smiled bitterly: "Senior, I really am no match for you. Half a month has passed, and I’ve made no progress."
"You’re doing quite well. I’m just idle and look for so diversion." The elder chuckled, "Now the flying boat is about to dock. Once you disembark, just ask anyone, and you’ll know where the Moon God Palace is."
"It’s rumored that the palace master of the Moon God Palace obtained Taiyin and achieved great fa, establishing the illustrious Moon God Palace."
Chen Nan was delighted and quickly rose to leave, but he suddenly realized that over the past half month, although playing chess with the elder, his mood had cald down.
He bowed deeply, inquiring: "May I ask for the senior’s na?"
"I am Qin Qingxuan. Young friend, we might et again in the future." The elder chuckled.
"Thank you!"
After expressing his gratitude again, he hurried back to his room, where Yun Ying still lay on the bed, frozen by the chill, with blackness occupying more than half of her body.
At this rate, within a year, Taiyin would completely take over her body.
"Don’t worry. I found a way to save you."
Chen Nan said softly, placing his hand on the ice, causing Yun Ying and the ice to vanish from the bed, transferring them to the Immortal Palace Space.
The flying boat docked, and he swiftly disembarked, quickly finding out about the Moon God Palace’s location, being a towering presence here.
In the entire Inner Sea Five Domains, it was also considered a first-rate force.
The docking place was a giant island with nurous cities, and the Moon God Palace was located on an immortal mountain there, occupying a superior position.
It took Chen Nan three days to travel, finally arriving outside the Moon God Palace.
Moon God Palace was situated atop an immortal mountain, surrounded by misty clouds, awe-inspiring, with immortal spirit birds and cranes occasionally flying out from the clouds, looking like an ethereal realm.
"Halt, who are you? Do you not know this is the Moon God Palace?"
Below the immortal mountain, a guarding female disciple shouted, blocking Chen Nan’s way with her sword.
Chen Nan ca to seek help and thus had an attitude of seeking assistance, remaining courteous as he cupped his hands and said, "I am Chen Nan. I wish to et the palace master of the Moon God Palace."
The female disciple scoffed: "Do you think you can et our palace master? Don’t you know n are not allowed in Moon God Palace? Leave quickly, or don’t bla us for being rude."
Seeing her domineering posture, Chen Nan suppressed his anger but persisted, saying, "I truly have an urgent matter to seek an audience with the palace master, regarding Taiyin."
He thought since the Moon God Palace rose due to Taiyin, its disciples would at least verify upon hearing about Taiyin.
But the female disciple maintained a disdainful expression: "Don’t make excuses. I think you’re just coveting our Moon God Palace’s all-female disciples!"
"After all, our Moon God Palace is filled with beauties, admired by many."
Although this female disciple was quite fair-looking, her harsh nature made her seem very unattractive to Chen Nan.
"You think your common countenance is worthy of coming here? What if I insist on seeing the palace master today?"
Upon hearing Chen Nan’s taunts, the female disciple’s face reddened, and she drew her longsword: "Indeed, a scoundrel! Die!"
She thrust forward, stirring the mist with her sword’s cold gleam, but it stopped short, unable to proceed any further.
The female disciple looked up to see Chen Nan rely pinching the sword between two fingers, rendering her motionless, filling her with alarm.
"You’ve been hiding your strength?"
"Your eyes deceive you!"
Chen Nan huffed coldly and flicked the sword, transferring a force that sent the female disciple flying back.
The female disciple still didn’t believe she was wrong, and instead, grew even angrier: "Bold! How dare you cause trouble at the Moon God Palace; do you have a death wish?"
She took out a jade talisman and crushed it, and shortly after, several figures in white skirts floated down, landing outside the mountain gate.
"What happened?"
The leading woman wore a simple hair bun, her face cold, exuding an otherworldly aura, clearly not an ordinary disciple.
"Sister Chen Yi, this rogue ca to our Moon God Palace causing trouble, and I, as her junior sister, was no match, getting wounded!"
The guarding female disciple lanted, as though she had been wronged.
Chen Yi snorted coldly: "Truly arrogant! Sisters, help subdue this brute!"
The female cultivators behind her leaped forth, occupying various positions, surrounding Chen Nan, forming a simple combined attack formation.
Chen Nan was slightly surprised. Although the cultivation of these female cultivators was less than his, and the leading Chen Yi’s was only equivalent to his, the power of the combined attack formation was not so simple.
"Indeed, worthy of the Moon God Palace. But are all of you really this indiscriminate?"
"The one causing trouble isn’t ; rather, it’s you who sully the Moon God Palace’s na!"
