377: Huangquan

Three days later, Gu Liangyuan appeared near Due Holy Land.

At this moment, Gu Liangyuan stood on the Hunqing Lotus Platform, looking at the boundless forest below, his expression solemn.

To ordinary people, this forest, apart from being denser, had no other abnormalities.

However, Gu Liangyuan discovered the anomaly here through his Innate Divine Eyes.

In Gu Liangyuan's line of sight, there was a large array hidden beneath this vast forest.

This array stretched for thousands of miles, massive in scale.

Name: Yellow Springs Great Array

Rank: Low Grade Immortal Array

Function: This array is a defensive array, capable of confusing the heavenly secrets within the array, and also has the effect of illusion.

Looking at the introduction of this great array, Gu Liangyuan understood why the heavenly secrets on the Pavilion Master of Jubao Pavilion were so chaotic.

Gu Liangyuan didn't know what was inside the array, but at this point, he couldn't give up easily.

“Make your move.”

Gu Liangyuan left these words, then disappeared into the Void Realm, quietly waiting for the Pavilion Master of the Gathering Treasures Pavilion to appear.

The Yao Sisters behind Gu Liangyuan heard this and didn't hesitate at all.

They conjured two Immortal Swords and thrust them directly towards the great array.

The Void Realm shattered, sweeping away everything.

Buzz!

As the Immortal Swords struck the Yellow Springs Great Array, the Yellow Springs Great Array suddenly burst into bright light, blocking the two women's attack head-on.

Seeing this, the two women frowned slightly.

Although they couldn't exert power beyond the human limit at this moment, that seemingly casual strike just now had already exceeded the limit of the Wind Calamity Realm, and it already contained Immortal intent.

Yet, they didn't expect this great array to be completely unharmed.

This was their first time making a move since following Gu Liangyuan, and starting off poorly made them feel a bit embarrassed.

Just as they were about to attack again, a black-robed man, shrouded in ghostly Qi, walked out from within the great array.

This person was tall, but his body was wreathed in ghostly Qi, making his face indiscernible.

Name: Black Robe

Affiliation: Gathering Treasure Pavilion Enshrinement, Sect Master of Yellow Springs Sect

Cultivation: Peak Ghost Emperor

...

Gu Liangyuan, hidden in the shadows, frowned slightly as he watched this scene.

In this world, there was actually a Peak Ghost Emperor?

One must know that before Gu Liangyuan met Zai Xiyue, he had never seen a single ghost Cultivator.

During the great war of the Fu Long Court, almost all Prodigies from various factions appeared, yet he only saw two ghost Cultivators below Soul Transformation, which showed how desolate ghost Cultivators were.

And this Yellow Springs Sect, Gu Liangyuan was certain he had never heard of this Sect.

Even in Xiao Fan's past life memories, there was no mention of it.

Seeing one spot to know the whole leopard, based on the strength of this Yellow Springs Sect Master, Gu Liangyuan could infer that the Yellow Springs Sect's strength was certainly extraordinary.

To have such a large Sect hidden under his nose in the Eastern Continent.

Interesting...

While Gu Liangyuan was deep in thought, Black Robe spoke to the Yao Sisters:

“Our Yellow Springs Sect does not meddle in worldly affairs, focusing solely on cultivation.”

“I wonder where we have offended you two Fellow Daoists, that you wish to trespass upon our Yellow Springs Sect?”

Yao Hua was about to get angry when she suddenly received a sound transmission from Gu Liangyuan, so she changed her words:

“This Fellow Daoist must have seen that we sisters are not ordinary mortals.”

“We are here to see the Pavilion Master of Jubao Pavilion for a big business deal.”

Oh?

Black Robe looked at the Yao Sisters, his heart filled with doubt and surprise.

There was too much information in the two sentences spoken by the woman in front of him.

First, it declared the two women's identity: they were not ordinary mortals.

He could indeed discern a hint of this.

After all, he was well aware of all the famous Loose Immortals in the world.

Next, they actually knew that the Pavilion Master of Jubao Pavilion was inside.

And judging by their tone, they were clearly very certain.

Finally, a big business deal...

How big of a business deal would it take for Immortals to personally descend to discuss?

He couldn't make the decision on this matter.

However, to be cautious, he asked another question:

“Forgive my poor eyesight, but which Immortal Court do the two of you belong to?”

The two women truthfully replied:

“Immortal Maids under the East Queen Mother.”

Upon hearing this, Black Robe bowed and saluted:

“I have long heard that the East Queen Mother has a pair of peerless beauties under her command, with Yao as their surname and Qin and Hua as their given names. I presume you are the two Fairies.”

Black Robe spoke humbly, but a hint of inexplicable brilliance flashed in his eyes.

The Yao Sisters, being of one mind, both sensed the surprise in each other's hearts.

Neither of them had expected that the person before them understood so much about the Immortal Realm!

At the same time, Gu Liangyuan was also surprised.

The matter of the Pavilion Master of Jubao Pavilion seemed even more troublesome than he had imagined.

Thinking of this, he seized the opportunity when Black Robe wasn't paying attention and immediately transformed into a hair tie, wrapping himself around Yao Qin's beautiful hair.

Black Robe did not notice any of this. Seeing that the Yao Sisters were silent, he continued:

“The Pavilion Master is most enthusiastic about doing business. Your arrival will surely delight him. Please, come in.”

With that, he opened the great array and made a welcoming gesture.

The two women nodded and followed Black Robe, stepping into the great array.

Upon entering the great array, they saw wandering souls everywhere and gusts of 陰風.

Looking up, the sun was nowhere to be seen, and everything was pitch black.

At this moment, Black Robe, having confirmed the Yao Sisters' identity, seemed very enthusiastic and proactively explained:

“In ancient times, there was the Heavenly Court above, the Human Realm in the middle, and the Underworld below.”

“After the catastrophe, the Six Paths and Three Realms collapsed, with the Underworld suffering the most damage.”

“This place is a ruin of the Underworld.”

The Yao Sisters listened and nodded lightly:

“It is indeed a good place for ghost Cultivators to cultivate.”

Black Robe's tone carried a hint of pride:

“For ghost Cultivators, this is indeed a geomantic treasure land.”

“It is by relying on this fragment that I gradually established the Yellow Springs Sect.”

As they spoke, they arrived at a cluster of buildings.

The architecture here resembled the courtyards of Jiangnan water towns, but without the embellishment of small bridges and flowing water, only endless Yin wind, making it appear particularly eerie.

Disciples flew and walked back and forth, but made no sound, completely different from ordinary Cultivation Schools.

Under Black Robe's guidance, the Yao Sisters quickly arrived at a palace in the center of the architectural complex.

Black Robe stepped forward, lightly knocked twice on the door knocker, and the door creaked open.

“Please.”

As Yao Qin stepped through the door, an angry roar came from inside:

“Black Robe, what are you doing? Haven't I told you I'm not seeing any outsiders?!”

Black Robe heard this and replied neither obsequiously nor arrogantly:

“These are not outsiders, but the Yao Sisters under the East Queen Mother.”

“Oh?”

As soon as his voice fell, a young-looking Cultivator appeared before the Yao Sisters.

This young man wore a golden crown and a large cloak made of Immortal Beast feathers.

Each of his ten fingers wore a golden Storage Ring.

His entire being exuded two words: “Rich!”

Gu Liangyuan also cast his detection spell on him at this moment:
