Chapter 568: The whereabouts of Nangong Wan and others
Originally, the situation of the ascended monks in Tianyuan City was even worse than that of Ye Changsheng. Basically, if there was any dangerous task, the Elder Council would assign it to the ascended monks.
It was not until later, after Zen Master Jin Yue and True Man Lei Luo successively cultivated to the state of fusion and joined the Council of Elders, that the situation of the ascended monks improved.
But after the death of Master Lei Luo in the great war several hundred years ago, there is only one Zen Master Jin Yue left among the Elders' Council who has ascended to the highest level.
Ye Changsheng had naturally heard of this pillar of the ascended monks for a long time, so he immediately clasped his hands together in greeting and said:
"I dare not, Brother Jin Yue is too polite. I am presumptuous to come here, so I should visit you!"
Zen Master Jin Yue looked him up and down, his face trembled, and he said in disbelief: "It turns out that Fellow Daoist Ye is already a cultivator in the late stage of fusion. This is really beyond my expectation!"
As soon as he said this, Zhao Wugui and the young woman next to him were frightened so much that they turned pale.
Ye Changsheng did not deliberately hide his cultivation level, but with their cultivation level of the initial stage of refining emptiness, they were indeed unable to see through his level of strength.
Zen Master Jin Yue, a powerful man who is only a step away from the late stage of fusion, can naturally see the true strength of Ye Changsheng.
Immediately, he was so surprised that he couldn't help chanting Buddhist scriptures. Even with his state of mind cultivated over tens of thousands of years, no matter how big the problem was, he could remain calm.
But at this moment, he really couldn't remain calm, because the cultivation level of the person in front of him was really too terrifying.
The late stage of fusion, or even the peak of fusion, how many people in the entire human race can reach this level of cultivation?
There are only the Three Emperors, the ancestor of the Long family, and a few old guys on the Holy Island, and they can't even gather ten people, but one of them appeared before his eyes.
Moreover, according to the other party, he was a member of the Qingming Guard hundreds of years ago.
Is this reasonable?
Zen Master Jin Yue couldn't help but ask, "Is Fellow Daoist Ye really from the Qingming Guard?"
"Haha, Master, you don't believe it? I still keep the token of Qingming Guard!" Ye Changsheng said, took out a token and threw it to the old monk.
Zen Master Jin Yue grabbed it and looked at it carefully. Then he smiled bitterly: "It's not that I don't believe it, but it's just that your cultivation level... is too shocking!"
"Daoyou, your performance is the first in the history of our human race!" Zen Master Jin Yue couldn't help but sigh.
"Master, thank you for your praise. I am just lucky!"
“Haha, anyone who can advance to our level is a person with great luck. But your speed of cultivation is absolutely unprecedented, and it will probably be hard to surpass you in the future!” The old monk said in an unusually kind manner, with wrinkles all over his face.
Ye Changsheng smiled and changed the subject, saying, "I would like to borrow the files of the Qingming Guards in Tianyuan City to take a look. Is that okay, fellow Daoist?"
"There is naturally no problem with what Fellow Daoist Ye said. I will open the restriction right away!" Zen Master Jin Yue said with a kind look.
Not to mention that Ye Changsheng is a cultivator at the peak of the fusion stage, even if he had just entered the fusion stage and made such a request, Zen Master Jin Yue would have agreed to it without hesitation.
It is extremely rare to find a fusion cultivator among the human race, and it is even rarer to find a fusion cultivator who is born as an ascended cultivator.
Before Ye Changsheng arrived, he was the only known person in the entire human race.
In this case, it is natural to win over Ye Changsheng. Moreover, after the great battle with the alien races that attacked the city, the strength of Tianyuan City has been greatly weakened. The Elders' Council is short of people, so they want to bring people in.
When facing Ye Changsheng, a combined cultivator who has no affiliation yet, the Elders' Council of Tianyuan City will be extremely kind to anyone who meets him.
Zen Master Jin Yue brought Ye Changsheng into the tall building, while Zhao Wugui and the other stayed outside.
When they arrived at a stone door, the old monk waved his hand to open the restriction, then took Ye Changsheng in.
He took down a stone tablet from a bookshelf, handed it to Ye Changsheng and said, "This is a detailed record of all the monks who have ascended in the past thousand years. It doesn't matter if Fellow Daoist Ye makes a copy!"
Ye Changsheng took the slate and said with a smile: "I am not interested in other people's information, I just want to investigate a few people!"
As he spoke, his spiritual sense penetrated into the stone slab and he saw balls of light. When his spiritual sense touched one of the balls of light, a stream of information immediately emerged.
The name, the realm of birth, the time of ascension, the changes in cultivation, etc. are all recorded in great detail.
Ye Changsheng spread out his spiritual sense and soon found some information that he was concerned about.
Among them there is a record about him. The world where he was born only recorded a vague human world. The lower world to which the human race belongs is most likely this name.
There is a rough record of the time of his ascension, his cultivation level at the time of ascension, and when he entered the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation.
Finally, there is a brief sentence about his disappearance, but that’s it.
After Ye Changsheng took a look, his attention shifted to several other balls of white light.
Name: Nangong Wan
Born interface: Human world
Ascension time: 1160903
He participated in the war of Tianyuan City against the siege of foreign races and performed well. After the war, his cultivation advanced to the late stage of transformation of spirit, and he left Tianyuan City and went to Tianling Territory. (Suspected to be related to the Spirit Emperor)
Name: Yuan Yao
…
Ye Changsheng showed an understanding look on his face. The five girls, Nangong Wan, Yuan Yao, Ling Yuling, Bai Yaoyi and Xu Qianyu, all left after the alien siege.
Among them, the first four have entered the late stage of the Spirit Transformation, and Xu Qianyu has advanced to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation. Their strengths have been greatly improved.
This made Ye Changsheng secretly confused. He didn't leave that many resources for Nangong Wan and other girls at the beginning. At most, it would make them richer after they came up.
With the spiritual stones, spiritual medicines and other resources accumulated from the human world, it would be considered good enough for them to cultivate to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation.
Later on, they all advanced to the late stage of Spirit Transformation. Could it be that there was some opportunity in the spiritual world?
He shifted his attention calmly. Since all four girls had gone to the Tianling Realm, he could probably feel more at ease.
Ye Changsheng had some guesses in his mind as to why they went to the Tianling Realm.
After he continued to check with his spiritual sense, he confirmed that except for Nangong Wan and other four women, no other women had ascended.
"That's not right either. Although Senior Sister Chen and the others don't have great aptitude, I left behind a Yuanci Mountain. With the help of the Yuanci magic, they should be able to reach the Spiritual Transformation Stage if they slowly hone their skills!"
"Besides, there is Bai Mengxin in the lower world, who has outstanding talent and character. Yanli also has a great hope of breaking through. Didn't they succeed?" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
His consciousness finally landed on a ball of white light, and he looked inside it:
Name: Han Li
…
It records Han Li's ascension, which was after the four girls. He arrived in Tianyuan City many years later than them.
"Could it be Han Li?" After this thought came to Ye Changsheng's mind, he almost immediately confirmed this possibility.
It must be Han Li!
Most likely, something went wrong with the passage when he ascended!
After Ye Changsheng carefully checked the information on the stone tablet, he did not find any information about Old Ghost Bai from the Taiyi Sect of the Dajin Sect in the human world.
In other words, this Bai surnamed god did not come to Tianyuan City, which means that he either died in the human world or died on the way to ascension.
The only possibility is the latter, because the simplified version of the anti-spiritual channel arranged by Ye Changsheng requires two people to ascend together.
If you are alone, the channel will be unbalanced and problems will arise.
Han Li would definitely not take this risk, so when he came up, the two of them must have ascended together, and the person who could ascend with him could only be Old Ghost Bai.
The fact that Old Ghost Bai did not show up just confirmed Han Li's guess that there was something wrong with the passage.
"It's you, Han Li. You really are worthy of being you!" Ye Changsheng thought to himself.
After coming to this conclusion, he was not surprised at all. After all, he knew very well what kind of attributes Han Li had.
Ye Changsheng's spiritual sense probed into other light groups and saw the situations of several other cultivators who ascended to the same level.
It goes without saying that the old demon Hu had died a long time ago, and the old monster Feng who came up with Xiang Zhili also died!
This person died in the alien siege, and his cultivation was in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation when he died.
However, his good friend Xiang Zhili is still alive and seems to have advanced to the late stage of Spirit Transformation.
Ever since entering the spiritual world, Xiang Zhili's talents have been put to good use. Not only had he advanced to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation several hundred years ago, he had also entered the late stage of the Spirit Transformation long before the alien race attacked the city.
I'm afraid that Xiang Zhili is now a cultivator at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and it is very likely that he will advance to the Void Refinement Realm.
I just don't know if he can hold on that long. Although after entering the spiritual world, the lifespans of most of them have been extended a lot due to the abundant vitality of heaven and earth.
But when Xiang Zhili was in the human world, he didn't have much time left to live. Now that hundreds of years have passed, even if his life span was extended, he probably wouldn't be able to last much longer.
Putting down the stone slab, Ye Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your help, Master. I have got what I wanted!"
Zen Master Jin Yue smiled kindly upon hearing this, and after clasping his hands together and bowing, he said, "Fellow Daoist Ye has now returned to the human race, where is he going?"
"Ye will go to Tianling Territory to visit some old friends!" Ye Changsheng said with a smile. It was not difficult for him to guess what the purpose of Master Jin Yue's asking him was.
"What happens after that? Will Brother Ye join the Tianling Realm?" Zen Master Jin Yue asked with a serious look.
"It's hard to say at the moment. We'll have to wait until I go to the Tianling Realm to see everything!" Ye Changsheng shook his head and did not give an answer.
Zen Master Jin Yue sighed upon hearing this, and then said, "A few decades later, the twenty-fourth great calamity of the Spiritual Emperor will come!"
"Many people in our human race are paying attention to this great heavenly tribulation. Most people are not optimistic about the Spirit Emperor. After all, in the history of the human race, there are very few people who can survive 24 great heavenly tribulations in the fusion stage. Most of those who can really get through this level have advanced to the Mahayana stage!"
"To be honest, I am not optimistic about the Spiritual Emperor. If the Spiritual Emperor dies this time, Fellow Daoist Ye will have a chance to compete for the position of the Spiritual Emperor!"
"The position of the Spiritual Emperor is of course extremely honorable among the human race. If Fellow Daoist Ye can really become the Spiritual Emperor, I will also be happy for it!"
"But now, on behalf of Tianyuan City, I still want to try to persuade Fellow Daoist Ye to give up Tianling Realm and join the Elders' Council of this city!" Zen Master Jin Yue chanted a Buddhist name and said to Ye Changsheng sincerely while looking at him.
"Fellow Daoist, you should be very clear that the situations we Ascended Monks face are somewhat different from those faced by local monks. Tianyuan City has almost gathered 90% of the Ascended Monks!"
“If fellow Taoists and I work together to maintain it, I think the situations of many ascending monks can be improved. ” Zen Master Jin Yue said as his expression became serious.
He sighed, "Ever since the death of Master Lei Luo hundreds of years ago, I have been unable to support the Ascended Monks alone!"
"If Fellow Daoist Ye joins, with your cultivation level, he will surely become the person in charge of the Tianyuan City Elders Council. By then, the situation of the ascended cultivators will be greatly improved!"
After hearing this, Ye Changsheng's expression became more solemn, but after his eyes flickered a few times, he slowly shook his head:
"Although I am a member of the ascended monks and I know the situation of the ascended monks, I really don't want to get involved in such intrigues. I just want to practice in peace!"
"However, I will also pay attention to what you said. As one of the few high-level cultivators among the ascended cultivators, I will help the ascended cultivators improve their circumstances without you saying anything!"
"However, you don't have to join Tianyuan City to achieve this. Ye has other plans!"
"So that's how it is. Since you have other ambitions and have made up your mind, I won't try to persuade you. Is there anything important that you came to Tianyuan City for? Do you need my help?"
Zen Master Jin Yue saw that Ye Changsheng had made up his mind, so he sighed lightly and no longer mentioned the invitation.
"It's nothing. I will probably leave Tianyuan City after meeting a few people!"
"By the way, I heard that among the demon and wolf tribes, there is a silver fairy who is also a member of the Elder Council of Tianyuan City. Fellow Daoist, can you help me make some connections? I want to meet her!" Ye Changsheng said.
Zen Master Jin Yue was stunned when he heard this, then he smiled bitterly and said, "Fellow Daoist Ye is indeed very powerful. Fairy Silver Light is the secret elder of this city. Not many people in the human and demon races know about it!"
"I didn't expect Brother Ye to reveal this secret so easily. Well, we originally planned to let Fairy Silver Light come to the front. After all, there are still two vacancies in the Elder Council. I originally wanted Brother Ye and Fairy Silver Light to fill these two vacancies..."
"Since this is what Fellow Daoist Ye asked for, I will personally bring the message to Fairy Silver Light!" Zen Master Jin Yue readily agreed after a brief thought.
"Thank you very much, fellow Daoist!" Ye Changsheng bowed.
