Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

"Young Master."

A fourth figure appeared inside the cave.

"This is……"

Zhang Yan looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, his face full of doubt.

"Junior Brother Zhang."

"This is my master, the Lord of All Wonders."

Lin Qingyue quickly introduced the identity of the Celestial Lord of All Wonders to Zhang Yan.

"So it was Senior Sister's master."

Zhang Yan paid his respects to the Lord of All Wonders.

However, having just awakened, Zhang Yan's aura was still extremely weak.

"Let's rest first."

Qingluan helped Zhang Yan up and said softly.

"I am fine for now."

How many days have I been unconscious?

"How has the Qingheng Sect been doing these days?"

Zhang Yan grasped Qingluan's wrist and asked softly.

All he remembered was what happened before he lost consciousness.

We earnestly request the Fire Dragon Heavenly Lord to remain in the Southern Wilderness to protect the Qingheng Sect.

It seems that at least Qingluan is safe and sound.

"You have been asleep for one year, three months, twenty-two days, and three and a half hours."

"The Qingheng Sect is safe and sound; it's you who worries me the most."

Qingluan replied.

"More than a year?"

Zhang Yan was taken aback, extremely surprised.

However, he quickly realized that Qingluan had stayed by his side all this time and had never left.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to remember the time so clearly.

"My master knows about this too, right?"

Zhang Yan continued to ask.

"of course."

"After you said those words, the Fire Dragon Heavenly Lord sent a message to the Divine Weapon Pavilion..."

Qingluan told Zhang Yan everything that happened after he fell into a coma.

"I'm sorry to trouble Master and all the Heavenly Lords."

After listening, Zhang Yan said with shame.

What was originally his own affair alarmed the entire Divine Weapon Pavilion, and even prompted the Pavilion Master to mobilize a large group of people, inviting the leaders of two major immortal sects to treat him.

"Now that I'm awake..."

"Let's go see Master first."

As Zhang Yan spoke, he began to get up.

"Young Master."

"This place is not within the Qingheng Sect."

At this moment, the voice of the Celestial Lord of All Wonders drifted and spoke.

"Not at the Qingheng Sect?"

Zhang Yan glanced outside the cave and, as expected, the scene was completely different from that of the Qingheng Sect.

Then he saw a hint of sadness in Qingluan's eyes.

"Tianjun."

"What the hell is going on?"

Zhang Yan's face darkened.

Without the orders of the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master, he should have remained in the Qingheng Sect.

Although the Lord of All Wonders is a noble celestial ruler.

But it's wrong to take him away without permission!
"Young Master."

"Please hear me out."

"Previously, the Pavilion Master had traveled throughout the cultivation world for the sake of the Young Pavilion Master, but returned empty-handed."

"Only the Black Wind Heavenly Lord of the Human Dao Alliance claims to be able to heal the Young Pavilion Master..."

Feeling guilty, the Celestial Lord of All Wonders told Zhang Yan in detail about the Human Race Alliance.

Previously, she could ignore Qingluan and Lin Qingyue.

But she could no longer hide it from Zhang Yan.

“I have heard what the Qingyun Dao Master said.”

"The Human Alliance has ties with the Gods."

"Furthermore, that Black Wind Heavenly Lord is really asking for an exorbitant amount."

"So I took it upon myself to bring the young master to this small world."

The Heavenly Lord of All Wonders explained the reason.

"The gods..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan's expression turned serious.

Before he fell into a coma, the demon race appeared.

Now that a new race of gods has appeared, only the legendary demon race remains.

"The four races: humans, demons, gods, and monsters."

"It was only a rumor before, but now it has reappeared."

"Only the demons seem to be nowhere to be found."

Zhang Yan muttered to himself.

However, he did not notice that a hint of sadness flashed in Qingluan's eyes when the demon race was mentioned.

"Black Wind Heavenly Lord is indeed asking for far too much."

"But Master did it for me."

"Please, Heavenly Lord, lead us back to the Divine Weapon Pavilion."

Zhang Yan was eager to return to the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

He couldn't believe it.

What's the current situation at the Divine Weapon Pavilion?

That Black Wind Heavenly Lord actually asked for 80% of the resources as soon as he opened his mouth; he was truly insatiable.

"Please, Young Master, take a step closer."

Lord Zhongmiao breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she had given up on Zhang Yan, his awakening was naturally a great thing for the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

The only tenth-stage Nascent Soul cultivator in the world, even the Imperial Sword Sect dares not underestimate him.

Zhang Yan's status was unprecedented.

With a wave of his sleeve, the Celestial Lord of All Wonders brought the entire cave dwelling out of the small world.

"Sister."

Zhang Yan looked at Lin Qingyue in the cave and called out to her.

Lin Qingyue nodded and left the inner room.

Inside the room, only Zhang Yan and Qingluan remained.

Qingluan's eyes were red as she leaned against Zhang Yan's chest.

"Luan'er".

"It's hard on you."

Zhang Yan held Qingluan's soft waist, his eyes full of tenderness.

He was the link between the Divine Weapon Pavilion and the Qingheng Sect. You can imagine the pressure Qingluan endured while he was unconscious.

"As long as you can wake up."

"It's all worth it."

Qingluan shook her head, forcing a smile onto her haggard face.

"How is the Qingheng Sect doing now?"

Zhang Yan pressed for an answer.

He didn't inquire about this matter in detail when the Lord of All Wonders was present.

"While you were unconscious."

"The Celestial Lord of All Wonders has arranged seven sixth-order spiritual veins and three seventh-order spiritual veins for my Qingheng Sect."

"The Qingheng Sect has now become a holy land in the Middle Kingdom."

Qingluan replied.

"The Celestial Lord of All Wonders is really so generous?"

Zhang Yan was startled.

He had previously left two sixth-order spiritual veins for the Qingheng Sect.

The Lord of All Wonders is even more astonishing.

He could actually mobilize these spiritual veins, but he didn't want to take too much advantage of the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

"Her extravagant spending."

"It's not just because of you, but also because of the blood in my womb."

Qingluan gently patted Zhang Yan and said with a blush.

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan's eyes widened, and his mind went completely blank.

"I'm only going to say it once."

Qingluan pursed her red lips and rolled her eyes at Zhang Yan.

"My dear Luan'er."

"I heard you!"

Zhang Yan quickly replied with a smile, while his gaze fell on Qingluan's lower abdomen.

He didn't expect that.

He escaped death this time and even received such good news.

"I'm a father now!"

Feeling the power emanating from his own bloodline, Zhang Yan was overjoyed like never before.

He carefully sensed the bloodline with his spiritual awareness, his eyes filled with tenderness.

Having lived two lives, this is still his first bloodline.

Moreover, he stayed behind with his Daoist partner, Qingluan.

"As the Lord of All Wonders said."

"This is your bloodline; you will at least reach the Ninth Stage Nascent Soul realm in the future."

Qingluan's eyes were full of tenderness as she leaned against Zhang Yan and spoke.

Although Qingluan did not say it explicitly.

However, Zhang Yan had already gleaned a great deal of meaning from the conversation.

Even the master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion couldn't find a way to cure him, which shows how serious his condition was.

"So they..."

Zhang Yan's gaze turned cold.

"No need to say more."

"If it weren't for this bloodline..."

"Without the Qingheng Sect, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Qingluan interrupted Zhang Yan, and said with a smile.

Although she deeply resented the Divine Weapon Pavilion's actions.

But she also knew.

If it weren't for this bloodline, the Celestial Lord of All Wonders wouldn't have cared so much about the Azure Balance Sect.

"I see."

Zhang Yan sighed softly. The Qingheng Sect was merely a small sect in the Southern Wilderness.

If it weren't for Zhang Yan, the only thing the Divine Weapon Pavilion would care about would be his bloodline.

"There will be no one else."

"They can remember our bloodline."

"Moreover, I will do everything in my power to help our bloodline also achieve the Tenth Revolution Nascent Soul stage."

Zhang Yan assured Qingluan.

This is his bloodline; from now on, he has one more thing to care about and one more responsibility in this world.

"Ah."

Qingluan nodded.

The two chatted warmly, and before they knew it, Qingluan had fallen asleep in Zhang Yan's arms.

Zhang Yan concentrated his magical power to isolate all sound.

Let Qingluan lean on your shoulder; it'll be more comfortable for her.

"I just don't know."

"Even my master couldn't do anything about it, so how did I suddenly wake up?"

Zhang Yan examined his own condition, muttering to himself.

His magical power was completely depleted.

The nascent soul dimmed, and even the spirit ring representing the tenth revolution completely lost its luster, as if it had withered away.

Zhang Yan took out a few pills and swallowed them to temporarily restore some of his magical power.

As for the remaining injuries...

The only way to fix it is with time.

The Celestial Lord of All Wonders moved extremely fast, and his cave dwelling was moved to the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

Upon arriving at the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

Qingluan just woke up.

Just as the two were about to leave the cave, they heard a sound outside.

"The Lord of All Wonders".

"You've kept me waiting, and the wait has been so long!"

"The Pavilion Master has been trying to resign from his position to see the Young Pavilion Master these past few days!"

The voices of the Heavenly Emperors could be heard.

"Master is going to resign from his position as sect leader?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yan and Qingluan exchanged a glance, both of them filled with doubt.

"Perhaps it's the Pavilion Master."

"In order to force the Lord of All Wonders to bring us back."

"That's why they used it as leverage."

Qingluan was extremely intelligent and guessed the purpose of the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master.

Upon learning this, the slight resentment she harbored towards the Master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion vanished.

Obviously.

The Pavilion Master of Divine Weapons had no idea where she and Zhang Yan were.

Moreover, the dignified master of a celestial sect was willing to go to such lengths for his disciples.

This clearly demonstrates Zhang Yan's standing in the eyes of the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master.

A master who has achieved this much has already done his duty without shame.

"I've caused my master some worry."

"I'm sorry to you all."

Zhang Yan was moved and said to Qingluan.

What more could one ask for in this life than to have such a Daoist companion and master?

"Wonderful indeed!"

Where is my disciple?

At this moment, outside the cave, came the cold questioning voice of the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master.

"Luan'er".

"Come with me to see my master."

Zhang Yan couldn't wait and left the cave with Qingluan.

"All wonders..."

Outside the cave, what else did the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master want to say?

"Master."

But upon seeing Zhang Yan's familiar figure, the words of the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master froze in his throat.

"Good disciple!"

The master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion looked at Zhang Yan with trembling hands, deeply moved.

"Young Master?"

The surrounding celestial rulers looked at each other in astonishment.

They tried countless methods, but Zhang Yan's condition did not improve at all.

Now that they have returned, they have recovered.

This is great news.

"Haha, the young master has returned! Congratulations!"

"Heaven has not forsaken my Divine Weapon Pavilion. The young master is a lucky man and his life is not meant to end!"

"Fortunately, we didn't agree to that greedy Black Wind Heavenly Lord's request. The Pavilion Master no longer needs to worry about the Young Pavilion Master!"

...

The Heavenly Emperors were overjoyed.

At this moment, there is no better news for the Divine Weapon Pavilion than Zhang Yan's awakening.

"You kid."

"Come here quickly, let your teacher take a look!"

The master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion was extremely excited and waved to Zhang Yan.

"Yes."

Zhang Yan then approached the master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

The Pavilion Master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion released the aura of the eighth realm to check on Zhang Yan and only felt relieved after confirming that his consciousness was stable.

"Your Nascent Soul..."

The master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion sighed, his brows still furrowed.

Zhang Yan's nascent soul can be described as a complete mess.

This is completely different from the previous ten-stage Nascent Soul stage.

"Master."

"There's no need to ask for too much."

"It's just a minor injury; it will heal quickly."

Zhang Yan himself didn't care.

After the master and disciple reminisced, Zhang Yan, accompanied by Qingluan, returned to the side of the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master.

"Pavilion Master."

"The responsibility previously lay with me."

"If I am to be punished, I will not make excuses."

"Please, Pavilion Master, rescind your order. Our Divine Weapon Pavilion cannot be without a leader!"

The Lord of All Wonders bowed to the Master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion and pleaded.

"The Divine Weapon Pavilion cannot be without a master!"

The same applies to the other heavenly rulers.

Before Zhang Yan returned, the Divine Weapon Pavilion was already in an uproar, almost to the point of exploding.

However, now that Zhang Yan has returned, once the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master has calmed down, he should continue to serve as the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master.

"I said."

"I am now the Heavenly Lord of Jinhua."

"The Divine Weapon Pavilion cannot be without a master. Why don't you, the Lord of All Wonders, take on the great responsibility of the Pavilion Master?"

"Anyway, you don't have extraordinary abilities, so becoming a pavilion master is more than enough for you."

Facing the assembled Heavenly Lords, the Pavilion Master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion chuckled lightly, indicating that he could easily change his mind.

"let's go!"

After saying that, the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master led Zhang Yan and Qingluan to Zhang Yan's cave.

"Pavilion Master!"

The Heavenly Emperors were dumbfounded.

Zhang Yan is back, but the Divine Weapon Pavilion Master is still not satisfied. Where can we go to reason with him?
"Pavilion Master!"

"This concerns the entire department; it cannot be taken lightly!"

The Heavenly Emperors still wanted to persuade them.

"I don't care if you call it childish or not!"

"Anyone can be the sect leader, I'm not doing it!"

After leaving behind these words, the Pavilion Master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion disappeared with Zhang Yan and the other person.

The next few days.

The master of the Divine Weapon Pavilion found a cave on Zhang Yan's spiritual peak and secluded himself there.

Going out was also to help Zhang Yan recover from his injuries.

The Heavenly Lords of the Divine Weapon Pavilion were extremely anxious and at their wits' end.

The vast Divine Weapon Pavilion is devoid of anyone capable of shouldering such a great responsibility.

Zhang Yan saw it all, but said nothing. He knew that his master was actually helping him and Qingluan vent their anger.

……

Divine Weapon Pavilion.

The meeting hall.

The Heavenly Lords gathered at the gate of the Divine Weapon Pavilion.

Crimson Flame Heavenly Lord and Myriad Wonders Heavenly Lord were clearly visible.

"Crimson Flame".

"Go and try to persuade the Pavilion Master."

"Among everyone in the Divine Weapon Pavilion, besides the young master, only you can persuade them."

The Celestial Lord of All Wonders looked at the Celestial Lord of Crimson Flame and said in a deep voice.

"Didn't my junior brother say that?"

"How can I persuade the Heavenly Lord of All Wonders to become the Pavilion Master?"

"Whoever can persuade them can do so; it's none of my business!"

With a smile on his face, Crimson Heavenly Lord left after saying just one sentence.

The Heavenly Emperors were left behind, each with a headache in the main hall.

Without a Pavilion Master, the affairs of the Divine Weapon Pavilion can only be decided by them.

So they were in discussions every day, and they didn't even have time to go into seclusion.

"The Pavilion Master has been here all these years."

"This can be described as an exhaustive and profound study of Zen!"

The Heavenly Emperors were filled with emotion.

This situation has continued.

The Crimson Heavenly Lord simply shut himself in and refused to see anyone.

Even the Lord of All Wonders was extremely annoyed.

The entire Divine Weapon Pavilion was thus locked in a stalemate, and these leisurely Heavenly Lords were no longer as carefree as before.

Zhang Yan, on the other hand, was extremely quiet.

Spending his days with Qingluan, and as his Dao injuries healed, Zhang Yan began attempting to refine fifth-tier magic weapons. (End of Chapter)
