Chapter 734 - 734: An Extra Person at the Gathering

As soon as he arrived, he was a little surprised.

Unlike the previous times, the number of people had changed.

Before, it was Gui, Liu, Xing, Senior Dan Yuan, and him. This time, there was an extra person.

Her username was Zhang.

She seemed different from Gui. She was more dignified and composed.

He just glanced at her once.

He had worked hard to build a mysterious identity, so he couldn’t look around boldly.

It seemed that the other person was also a little surprised to see him.

Jiang Hao didn’t know if this person had been there from the beginning or had just joined.

He hadn’t had time to check the stone tablet in the past few days, so he wasn’t sure.

After everyone gathered, they respectfully greeted Senior Dan Yuan.

“It seems that Friend Zhang has come out of seclusion, ” Senior Dan Yuan said to Zhang with a smile.

“Thank you for your concern, Senior. This time, it went quite smoothly,” Zhang said politely.

Jiang Hao felt strange because the way she spoke seemed a bit formal.

Gui was much more casual.

She could ask anything, and the gathering was better off with her in it.

He also realized that Zhang had been there all along, but she had been in seclusion for some years and had just come out.

He had no idea what kind of person she was or which sect she belonged to.

He decided to watch and see how things unfolded.

It seemed that the other person was also curious about him but hadn’t found the right time to speak.

“Do any of you have questions about your cultivation?” Senior Dan Yuan asked the group.

“Senior, I have a question,” Zhang said. “In recent years, I’ve been reading about the sages and their writings in the Book Pavilion and found that some people entered the Dao through writing. It’s quite unusual. Did they enter the Dao through insight, or was there some other power in the writings? If it’s through insight, why did they write it down so specifically? If it’s the latter, can I learn it?”

“You cannot learn it. This book is not the same as that book. It was written with the power of mountains and rivers, and the words are rooted in profound Dao methods. To comprehend the heavens and the earth and understand the Dao patterns, one can walk this unique path,” Senior Dan Yuan said. “Is it impossible to learn because it doesn’t exist anymore?” Zhang asked.

“If it were in the past, it would indeed be difficult to answer, but now I can provide some insight,” Senior Dan Yuan said. “Someone once opened this path, and then it was closed.”

“Why?” Gui suddenly asked.

Jiang Hao lowered his head. He had guessed the answer.

“Because it would affect all the clans,” Senior Dan Yuan said.

Others were puzzled but didn’t ask further.

This was no longer a matter of cultivation.

Once there were no cultivation issues, Senior Dan Yuan turned to everyone. “I’ve heard that there have been sightings of pages of the sage in the west. Have any of you heard about it? If you have information about the whereabouts of the pages, please inform me.”

“Can we exchange them for Snow God Pills?” Gui asked.

“In theory, perhaps not. But if you have the pages, then perhaps we can come to an understanding,” said Dan Yuan.

Gui was somewhat disappointed but not hopeless.

“I’ve heard some information from overseas. The people of the Astronomical Academy are searching for a certain great sage, which might be related to the pages of the sage,” Liu said.

“The Bright Moon Sect has a copy of the page, but it’s of no use. It seems we need the actual pages. Each time the pages appear, they are unique in some way,” Xing said.

Jiang Hao didn’t say anything because he had no idea what those pages were. This was a gathering with such a wide range of knowledge, and he couldn’t contribute to the conversation.

Being introverted was the best cover for him for now.

At that point, Senior Dan Yuan said, “I heard that there’s a chance to achieve immortality. Do any of you have any information?”

Everyone was surprised.

“Immortality?” Liu was quite curious. “What kind of Immortality is it?”

“Opening the path to Immortality,” Senior Dan Yuan said. “The Immortal Road.”

Everyone looked at each other.

“I’ve only heard of that happening just three times in historical records. The most recent one was when the Human Emperor broke through the Immortal Ascension Platform. The previous two times couldn’t be confirmed. They were thought to be just legends. It happened for the fourth time?” Zhang was surprised.

“That’s right. According to the records, it’s not very difficult to achieve immortality when you encounter such opportunities,” Xing said in awe.

Such opportunities were extremely rare.

It was not only a matter of the vastness of the world but also a matter that spanned eras.

So, the fact that it appeared now made them all feel amazed.

However, the more they talked, the sadder Gui became.

“I heard it happened in the southern region.” Senior Dan Yuan looked at Jing and Gui.

Jing remained indifferent, but Gui looked dejected.

Gui said nothing, but the fact that she was here indicated that she knew something.

So, everyone looked at her.

“It happened at the Heavenly Note Sect.” Gui sighed. “Shang An broke through to the Immortal Ascension Platform and opened the Immortal Road.”

She only mentioned the event, but she didn’t say she had experienced it.

She looked at Jing and the other four. Since Jing was not there, did the others miss it too?

She felt relieved. If Jing had obtained the opportunity, she would have cried.

However, her words shocked the others.

“It happened in the Heavenly Note Sect?!” Liu exclaimed. “It was Shang An?

Was that why he was traveling? The Clear Sky School seems generous.”

“So that’s it. It was no wonder the Clear Sky School had such a major commotion,” said Xing.

“What happened?” Gui asked.

Jiang Hao also wanted to ask, but he found it hard to speak up. Fortunately, the gathering had Gui.

Xing laughed. “Just a couple of days ago, countless elders from the Clear Sky School, from the Sect Master down to the ordinary elders, were all frustrated and angry. At first, I didn’t understand what had happened, but now it seems it was because Shang An had opened the Immortal Road. It’s no wonder those people were frustrated. Back then, Shang An’s master practically begged them to accept his talented disciple, but they refused. Now, Shang An has achieved a breakthrough and opened the path to immortality. They could have been the master to such an outstanding disciple, but they had refused.”

Shang An was a legendary figure. Clearly, the Clear Sky School’s elders suffered a blow.

Jiang Hao sighed.

Back then, Shang An’s master had barged into the Clear Sky School and begged them to accept Shang An as their disciple, but they had rejected him. Now, Shang An had opened the Immortal Road. Many people were regretful for not accepting him before.

Zhang listened attentively. She felt confused.

Besides the path to Immortality, she couldn’t understand anything else.

Shang An and the events at Clear Sky School were all unknown to her.

However, she noticed that Jing, who was beside her, also couldn’t understand, so it seemed that he had limited knowledge too.

If a person was silent all the way, it only meant they didn’t know anything.

She thought that Jing wasn’t as exceptional as she had thought.

To learn more about the situation, she needed to wait and see.

Since there was a new person, it was important to understand his value and his abilities.

Of course, it was also essential to showcase her own value, as it would make negotiations smoother.

However, the top priority was to figure out what had happened with Shang An. She had been in seclusion for over a decade, but it felt like a century had passed outside..
