Shouyang Mountain.
One of the few fourth-order spirit mountains within Lingtian Pass.
It had always been the cultivation place of Elder Lu from the Eastern Sun Sect. Under his leadership, so strict rules of Lingtian Pass were relaxed, and transactions between cultivators beca more legitimate.
Shouyang Mountain once flourished imnsely.
Elder Lu was thus honored with the title Shouyang Mountain Man.
Unfortunately, following a battle, Shouyang Mountain Man was severely wounded and had to return to the Eastern Sun Sect to heal.
Even though the Eastern Sun Sect later sent a Nascent Soul Elder, Shouyang Mountain could not avoid becoming desolate.
Recently, however, Shouyang Mountain began to bustle again.
All because the Alchemy Sect broadly invited True Masters from the Eastern Wasteland, intending to restart the Shouyang Discourse!
On this day.
Elder Jiao from the Eastern Sun Sect stood on a mountain peak, watching the lower order cultivators scurrying around the mountain.
A disciple from the Eastern Sun Sect discontentedly said, "What is the Dan Sect? How can they borrow Master Lu’s na to invite various True Masters? Does Danluo Mountain not have enough space?"
Elder Jiao tugged at the corner of his mouth, "Danluo Mountain is certainly spacious enough, but it doesn’t have the notoriety of Shouyang Mountain, or the prestige of our Eastern Sun Sect."
The disciple was puzzled, "Are we really going to hand over the reputation of the Shouyang Discourse that Master Lu painstakingly established?"
Elder Jiao’s expression darkened, seemingly thinking of sothing, his face slightly brightened.
"Let them cause a ruckus for now, after all, they are just clowns!"
He then waved his hand and disappeared into the mountain.
...
Different people have different attitudes towards Luo Chen.
After all, he cannot make everyone like him.
But at least on this occasion, the na of the Dan Sect had received an overwhelming response!
Year 3630 of the Mountain Sea Calendar, the ninth day of the ninth month.
Autumn chrysanthemums fill the garden, dogwood branches are everywhere.
Shouyang Mountain was teeming with people, glints of light thread across.
One figure after another appeared at the discourse conference, according to the scheduled ti.
They not only ca themselves but also brought their prized disciples.
"Stay outside for now and interact with others. Feng Yue, you’ll be managing Fenghua Palace in the future, expanding connections is the first priority." Fenghua Fairy instructed.
Feng Yue nodded heavily, the mature face bore only responsibility at this mont.
After her master entered the main hall, she looked around, and finally stepped forward towards a slightly unfamiliar cultivator.
"Is it Daoist Yu before ?"
...
Leaving the junior exchanges aside, as Fenghua Fairy entered the hall, she imdiately sensed the scale of this Shouyang Discourse.
Compared to before, the number of participants had decreased, but the involved powers were by no ans inferior!
Beside her were Lin Qingxuan from Yu Ding Sword Sect and Ye Lan from Shen Fu Sect, who were conversing.
Eye contact was made with Ling Fengzi from Piaomiao Sect, a solitary figure, looking lancholic.
Xian He from the White Crane Gate entered the hall just now, walking with He Huang.
Elsewhere, Kuxiang Daoist from White Deer Cave sat alone in a corner; it’s said that Kuxiang Daoist is Tie Guan Daoist’s senior brother, extrely strong, and unexpectedly accepted Luo Chen’s invitation too.
Master Taiyue from Taishan Sect was speaking quietly with Jiuling Yuanjun from the Jiuling Sect, their lips moved, but no sound was heard, presumably setting up an isolation technique.
Even Master Yao from Seven Cave Mountain, rumored to have not so good a relationship with Luo Chen, was also surprisingly present at this ti.
The only noticeable absence was likely cultivators from the Dark Abyss Sect!
As Fenghua Fairy was observing the entire scene, she suddenly felt two gazes falling on her.
She looked up and saw Luo Chen and Tian Douzi from above smiling at her, as if inviting her.
Without much thought, Fenghua Fairy moved lightly and walked up to them.
"Fairy, you’re here."
"Tian Douzi, Dan Sect!"
After briefly exchanging greetings, Fenghua Fairy curiously asked, "What are you discussing?"
Luo Chen smiled slightly, yet what he said made her expression change.
"Talking about that mysterious monster Gao Chang!"
Fenghua Fairy said in surprise, "Do you have news about this demon?"
Luo Chen remained calm, asking back, "Now that Lingtian Pass is clearly under reconstruction, it should be open to convenience yet it is heavily guarded. Such anomaly is only because of Lei Daozi’s arrival. Do you think it’s possible that he captured Gao Chang and detained it within the city?"
Fenghua Fairy opened her mouth, apparently realizing this possibility too.
Luo Chen turned to Tian Douzi and said, "Regarding this demon Gao Chang, Feng Hua knows more than I do. If you have any questions, you can ask her."
Tian Douzi did not hesitate, proactively inquiring about the situation from Fenghua Fairy.
Fenghua Fairy was generous, recounting the information she once told Luo Chen, one by one.
But Tian Douzi seed to be prepared, asking rather pointed questions.
"No true body?"
"Yes, at first he was parasitic on another demon emperor nad Bai Lan, which led to our misjudgnt, resulting in the demise of three friends from your sect. Not only that, while escaping, when attacked by Lei Daozi’s deadly move, he managed to escape certain death by parasitizing on Huang Fengke."
"Is the attack thod really that simple?"
"Although it’s bizarrely extraordinary, it’s straightforward and direct, just a pounce. But it can ignore the protective body air shield, ordinary defense magic items can’t stop him. Particularly, he seems to penetrate our cultivators’ Purple Mansion Barrier, treating it as nonexistent!"
"Does it have illusion capabilities?"
"This... hmm, it seems so. A fellow from the Dark Abyss Sect caught an opportunity and almost killed it, but stopped at the critical mont. Not just that, he even turned against fellow disciples, allowing it to escape once more."
...
With each question, Tian Douzi’s eyes grew brighter, but his expression beca graver.
Luo Chen watching this scene, couldn’t help but ask, "You are knowledgeable and well-inford, but do you know the origin of this demon?"
