Yang Che's heart tightened as he sensed that this aura was extremely similar to the cultivation aura of Jiang Wudao, the City Lord of Jiang Huo City.
"Half-Step God Transformation Realm?"
Just as Yang Che was vaguely guessing, the sword-shaped Jade Slip that Sima Shishu, the Hall Master of Sword Gate Hall, had given him earlier suddenly flashed with light.
Taking out the sword-shaped Jade Slip and pouring a trace of magical power into it, Sima Shishu's voice immediately came out: "Yang Che, come quickly to the Main Hall of Sword Two Peak."
Yang Che's expression was solemn, and he immediately stepped onto the Dunjxing Shuo, flying swiftly towards Sword Two Peak.
Sword Two Peak.
Inside the Main Hall.
As soon as Yang Che entered, he saw a corpulent Old Man, almost a spherical Fat Man, sitting on the main seat.
This corpulent Old Man, who was almost a ball of flesh, had now restrained his aura.
At first glance, there was nothing extraordinary about him; apart from being too fat, he seemed no different from an ordinary person.
"Quickly pay your respects to Ancestor Niu."
Sima Chaoqun, who was at his side, stroked his gray beard that reached his abdomen, saying unhurriedly.
Yang Che immediately cupped his hands and saluted: "Disciple Yang Che greets Ancestor Niu."
Saying that, he didn't forget to turn and continue to salute Sima Chaoqun: "Greetings, Sima Shishu."
"You are Yang Che, the chief Disciple of Sword Four Peak?"
The corpulent Old Man, Ancestor Niu's voice, did not sound old; instead, it was like that of a middle-aged man.
Yang Che immediately nodded and replied: "Precisely."
"Has this Senior Uncle Zhang of mine changed his temperament? You look ordinary, and your appearance is even more unremarkable. How could Senior Uncle Zhang take a liking to you?"
Ancestor Niu had too much flesh on his face, and when he spoke, his eyes were squeezed into slits. He seemed to try his best to open his eyes wide, but in the end, they still looked half-closed.
Yang Che immediately felt that this Ancestor Niu was somewhat comical, but he dared not show it on his face.
Seeing this, Sima Chaoqun immediately said: "Junior Martial Uncle Niu, this child possesses a rare Mutated Lightning Immortal Root. Senior Uncle Zhang cherishes his talent, so..."
"Alright, alright, I was just thinking about the two Disciples Senior Uncle Zhang took in before. One was excessively handsome, and the other was excessively beautiful. That's why seeing this child being truly unremarkable, I just spoke from feeling."
Ancestor Niu waved his hand, and his expression suddenly became serious: "Yang Che, you said that my Senior Uncle Zhang wants us to relocate the entire Sect. This matter is no small feat. You must tell me everything you know, word for word, without missing anything."
Yang Che immediately recounted the Old Ancestor's words, word for word, to the Sword Two Peak Master, Ancestor Niu.
After Ancestor Niu heard it, the expression on his face changed uncertainly.
After a long time, he stared at Yang Che, his gaze suddenly becoming incomparably sharp: "Yang Che, you are merely at the Foundation Establishment Stage Early Phase cultivation. How did you know there was an Ancient Restriction at the bottom of the river, and about the Ancient Blood Corpse?"
This was not the first time Yang Che had faced such a question, so the expression on his face remained unchanged. He said very calmly: "This Disciple was being pursued and had no choice but to escape into the riverbed to hide, which is how I unintentionally discovered it."
Ancestor Niu saw that Yang Che showed no panic when facing his questioning, and his eyes were also very calm, so he no longer dwelled on it and quickly said:
"Tell me that location. After I investigate the truth, I will decide whether or not to relocate the entire Sect as Senior Uncle Zhang said."
Yang Che truthfully informed him.
Ancestor Niu's corpulent body immediately disappeared from the main seat.
At this moment, Yang Che suddenly showed a worried expression, then solemnly said to Sima Chaoqun: "Sima Shishu, forgive this Disciple for speaking frankly, but the longer this drags on, the more dangerous the situation becomes. Furthermore, once the Star Dust Sect of Feng Country is breached by the Demonic Sect of Shura Country, even if our Qing Jian Sect wants to evacuate, I fear it will be incredibly difficult."
"What you said is not without reason. But now, the fate of our Qing Jian Sect rests in the hands of your Grandmaster Niu. Let's see what your Grandmaster Niu decides after he returns to the Sect."
Sima Chaoqun's face showed difficulty, and his eyes were also filled with worry.
Deep down in his heart, he actually did not want to relocate.
If a massive Sect with a Legacy of several millennia were to relocate the entire Sect, and to such a distant Level Five Realm, it would inevitably sacrifice countless Disciples.
And the massive commotion caused by the relocation would inevitably attract the attention of other cultivation Sects.
This extremely important news brought back by Yang Che must absolutely not be known to any other Sects; in fact, other Sects must even serve as a clever cover for Qing Jian Sect's relocation.
Thinking of this, Sima Chaoqun solemnly warned Yang Che: "Yang Che, you must remember, this news must not be leaked by even half a point. Even if our Qing Jian Sect ultimately decides to relocate, we must absolutely not let anyone else, or any other Sect, know."
"Also, before your Grandmaster Niu returns, you cannot let other Disciples within the Sect know. I will strictly restrain my five Disciples."
Yang Che nodded, understanding that Sima Shishu's action was undoubtedly extremely correct.
After returning to Sword Four Peak, Yang Che found Hu Xiaonan and Ma Qiucheng, instructing them to keep his previous words strictly confidential, and that it would be best not to go anywhere during this period.
Afterward, Yang Che went straight to the Main Hall, and according to the method taught by the Old Ancestor, he opened the library within the Main Hall, collecting all the Cultivation Technique scrolls and Jade Slips into the Magic Stone Space.
He also found backup Restriction access Jade Slips for entering the other two Secret Realms, 'Spring Rain Flat' and 'Ice Leaf Island,' within this library.
Swiftly arriving at the corresponding Teleportation Array, Yang Che successively entered Spring Rain Flat and Ice Leaf Island, collecting all the wild Spirit Medicine in both Secret Realms and taking away the most important treasures from both Secret Realms.
Among them, the treasure in the Spring Rain Flat Secret Realm was a Wood Spirit Pearl, which contained vast and incomparably pure Wood Spiritual Qi.
And the treasure in the Ice Leaf Island Secret Realm was a 'snow soul stone,' a rare treasure of extreme cold and yin between heaven and earth.
Finally, Yang Che returned to the Red Ripple Secret Realm and arrived beside the Lingyan Spring.
Undoubtedly, the most important treasure in the Red Ripple Secret Realm was this Medium Grade Lingyan Spring.
The Spirit Eye object could be moved, but it required immense magical power, and if there was even a slight mishap, the efficacy of the Spirit Eye object would be greatly damaged.
Unlike the Spirit Eye Tree sapling obtained in the 'Hanging Waterfall Medicine Garden' back then, this Lingyan Spring was already of Medium Grade scale. With Yang Che's current cultivation strength at the Foundation Establishment Stage, it was almost impossible to move the Lingyan Spring alone.
However, since the Old Ancestor had already spoken, allowing him to take all the treasures in the Secret Realms, Yang Che naturally would not miss such a good opportunity.
Yang Che knew that beneath this Lingyan Spring, there existed a Spiritual Vein about thirty li long.
Tianxie Ziyin had long 'coveted' this Spiritual Vein.
She had incited Yang Che several times to directly bring this Spiritual Vein into the Magic Stone Space. In doing so, the Void Illusion Magic Stone Space would gradually be purified and transformed, and in time, it would become a true 'Immortal Realm' with rich Spiritual Qi, just like the Red Ripple Secret Realm.
Yang Che was naturally moved, but due to the Old Ancestor's power and being the chief Disciple of Sword Four Peak, he naturally couldn't do such a reckless thing.
But now it was different.
The Old Ancestor had explicitly allowed him to take all the treasures, and even said that if he couldn't take them, he could just destroy them.
Thus, Yang Che no longer had any scruples.
Unfortunately, Tianxie Ziyin had fallen into a deep sleep.
After several attempts, Yang Che found that with his current cultivation strength, it was simply difficult to bring this complete Spiritual Vein into the void illusion demon stone.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Che decided to immediately begin following Tianxie Ziyin's method to awaken her.
Time was pressing, and since Yang Che had made his decision, he no longer hesitated.
He immediately went to the back mountain of Qing Jian Sect, to a 'Sword Tomb' located in a special place in the Xuanqing Mountain Range.
