Chapter 166 The Vice Leader of the Chan Sect, Ancestor Randeng
Chapter 166 The Vice Leader of the Chan Sect, Ancestor Randeng
Yang Jian's ability to achieve such a feat naturally earned him the high regard of his senior brothers and uncles.
After all, those who follow the Chan sect place great emphasis on background and aptitude.
This was also the primary condition for the first disciple of Yuanshi Tianzun.
Yang Jian didn't care about the praise from the crowd.
He knew very well that his cultivation level was far from sufficient.
They couldn't even make it to Nuwa's Palace in the Outer Heavens; they had to rely on this Daoist Conference.
"I still need to continue my diligent cultivation!"
Yang Jian sighed inwardly.
"Boom! Boom!"
Just as he was lost in thought, two incredibly powerful auras suddenly descended upon the hall.
"Um?"
Upon sensing it, Yang Jian was startled and immediately looked towards the place where the aura had descended.
Upon closer inspection, two figures appeared inside the Jade Void Palace.
One of them had an ancient and simple face. He sat cross-legged in the void with his eyes closed. His aura was as deep as the sea, as if he had merged with the surrounding heaven and earth, which made people feel awe.
The other person had white hair and a youthful face, a large forehead, held a dragon-patterned cane, and wore a compassionate smile.
After they appeared, it was discovered that these two were positioned above the Twelve Golden Immortals in the Jade Void Palace.
"Oh?"
"Who are these two?"
Yang Jian glanced at the two who had arrived and frowned slightly.
He had not been a disciple of Master Yuding for very long, and had been cultivating in seclusion ever since.
Among the figures in the Chan Sect, the Twelve Golden Immortals are relatively well-known.
Yang Jian was completely unfamiliar with the two people who had suddenly arrived.
The Jade Cauldron Immortal, who was standing nearby, noticed the doubt in Yang Jian's eyes and transmitted his voice, saying:
"Disciple, the one sitting cross-legged in the void is none other than the Vice Leader of my Chan Sect, Ancestor Randeng."
"When our master is not around, he takes over guiding our cultivation."
"If we're talking about seniority, you should call him Ancestor Burning Lamp."
"And the other one..."
After transmitting his voice to this point, Master Yuding paused slightly, glancing intentionally or unintentionally at the other person, before continuing:
"He is the eldest disciple of the Antarctic Immortal. He is the first disciple under our master, with profound cultivation and a venerable status."
"Normally, he lives in the Antarctic and rarely returns to Kunlun, so it's normal that you've never seen him."
After Yu Ding Zhenren's explanation, Yang Jian was greatly shocked.
Unexpectedly, these two who suddenly appeared had such a significant background.
One was the vice leader of the Chan Sect, and the other was the true senior disciple of the Chan Sect.
Before meeting the Antarctic Immortal, Yang Jian had always thought that Guang Chengzi was the senior disciple of the Chan Sect.
Who would have thought that this senior brother was someone else entirely.
Just as Yang Jian was in a daze, many disciples of the Chan Sect in the hall bowed to Randeng and the Antarctic Immortal.
"Greetings, Ancestor!"
"Greetings, Senior Brother!"
Upon seeing this, both of them smiled warmly.
"boom!"
Just then, another unexpected event occurred.
Suddenly, golden lotuses began to surge in the air above the Jade Void Palace.
Immediately afterwards, a mysterious and profound Daoist aura spread out.
Upon sensing this, all the disciples of the Chan Sect in the hall were filled with awe and reverence.
Before long, a figure appeared.
The newcomer sat upright on the cloud bed, his entire body radiating a pure and ethereal light.
If not Yuanshi Tianzun, the leader of the Chan Sect, then who is he?
Upon seeing the appearance of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, all the disciples of the Chan Sect in the hall immediately knelt down and paid their respects.
"Greetings, Master!"
"Greetings, Grandmaster!"
In an instant, everyone knelt down, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.
You must know that this is Yuanshi Tianzun, a sage and the founder of the Chan Sect.
Seeing this, Yuanshi Tianzun remained calm and then swept his gaze across the group of Chan Sect disciples in the hall.
Upon receiving the gaze of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, all the disciples of the Chan Sect tensed up, feeling as if the Primordial Celestial Venerable could see right through them.
Finally, Yuanshi Tianzun's gaze fell upon Yang Jian.
He didn't speak, but he slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a faint smile.
"Um?"
Upon seeing this, Yang Jian felt a chill run down his spine.
He felt as if his soul was being pierced through by the seemingly casual glance he had received from the Primordial Celestial Venerable.
In addition, many disciples of the Chan Sect present also noticed the subtle abnormality of the Primordial Celestial Venerable.
"What's going on?"
"Why does Master look at Yang Jian like that?"
"It seems that Master values Yang Jian highly!"
"Yang Jian is truly blessed!"
"..."
Guang Chengzi and other second-generation disciples of the Chan Sect muttered to themselves.
Naturally, everyone could see that Yuanshi Tianzun was paying close attention to Yang Jian.
They all thought to themselves that since Yang Jian was valued so highly by Yuanshi, his future achievements were probably limitless, and they should get closer to him.
After glancing at Yang Jian, Yuanshi Tianzun withdrew his gaze.
Others may not know, but he is very clear that Yang Jian carries the great destiny of the Chan Sect on his shoulders.
He will be a key figure in the great tribulations to come.
It was he who sensed the secret of heaven and instructed Jade Cauldron Immortal to take Yang Jian into his fold.
After regaining his composure, Yuanshi Tianzun said calmly:
"Now that everyone has arrived..."
"Then let's set off for the Nuwa Palace!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuanshi waved his wide sleeves.
The next moment, a cloud containing the pure light of jade suddenly appeared from beneath everyone's feet.
Immediately afterwards, the auspicious cloud lifted everyone up and flew away from the Kunlun Mountain Wonderland, heading towards the Nuwa Palace in the Outer Heavens.
……
At this juncture.
The seabed of the Western Sea, within that sealed space.
"boom!!"
Chen Changsheng suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them.
Soon, the surging magical power fluctuations surrounding Chen Changsheng gradually subsided.
"call……"
Chen Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself:
"Finally, we've broken through!"
After this period of seclusion and cultivation, his cultivation level has broken through to the late stage of Taiyi Golden Immortal.
He is only one step away from reaching the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
However, the improvement in his cultivation level was not Chen Changsheng's biggest gain this time.
What delighted and excited him most was a sudden inspiration he had while absorbing and refining Xing Tian's essence blood.
That is, to see if we can condense this essence of blood containing the life source and fighting will of the ancient great witch into an avatar that is different from the past.
Unexpectedly, his bold attempt actually succeeded!
As he pondered, Chen Changsheng had a sudden thought.
"boom!"
In an instant, a powerful aura burst forth.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that another figure had appeared beside Chen Changsheng.
This figure was towering and imposing, with muscles bulging like a coiled dragon.
In addition, an indomitable and indomitable fighting spirit emanates from him.
It was none other than the avatar that Chen Changsheng had condensed from a drop of the essence blood of the Great Witch Xingtian.
At first glance, this incarnation of Xing Tian is exactly the same as the real Xing Tian, as if the great witch Xing Tian has truly been resurrected and returned.
