Ni Yangzhou was speechless for a moment, but still responded respectfully, then asked:

"Will there be any impact if the whisk is handed over to the disciple?"

Was the thing the ancestor left behind to protect the clan meant to suppress some monster or formation? Ni Yangzhou was worried about being taken away rashly by himself.

"Influence? What influence?"

Guan Miao walked back to the upper hall, rummaged through his sleeves, and found a thin scarf as thin as a cicada's wing: "No problem, I'll just use something else to clean the throne for the ancestor."

……

Ni Yangzhou's face was filled with black lines: "Then the intention of protecting the sect..."

Guan Miao smiled, a nostalgic look on his face: "Thinking back to the days when I followed the old ancestor everywhere to exorcise demons and punish evildoers. The old ancestor, with just a whisk, was unrivaled in the world, defeating demons, ghosts, and powerful men of the sect. Who couldn't be in awe of him? As long as this whisk is still there, no one will want to bring bad luck to the Minghong Sect."

After all, the root cause of all the troubles in the world of cultivation is the pursuit of immortality, and once there, one must see the ancestor. Why would those who hope to ascend to immortality bother with their future colleagues over a minor figure?

Ni Yangzhou closed his eyes and thought to himself that he had not been back for too long. He forgot that although the cultivators in this world had the ability to fly and hide in the ground, they were just human beings with seven emotions and six desires.

When he came to Minghong Sect as a child, he had only heard of the ancestor's high reputation and virtue. He never expected that the world was originally established by force.

"Disciple understands."

Ni Yangzhou's mind moved, and the jade pendant on his chest glowed again, and the whisk was included in it.

After escaping his small world, Ni Yangzhou's mind became much clearer, a situation often confused by the situation. Looking at Yan Congzhi, transformed into a green star and stored in a humanoid pendant, and the green jade he had always worn around his neck in this world, Ni Yangzhou realized there was more than one green jade.

I still remember that when Yan Congzhi was my master, he once said that this green jade was a gift from the ancestor. Later, my third brother said that Yan Congzhi used a green jade as a marking signal to reside in his body so that it could follow him in and out of the mission world.

The starlight in the human-shaped pendant represents Yan Congzhi, who has been exhausted and resides in it. The one on his neck is the storage jade pendant that has never left him in the world of cultivation.

Everything that was destined by fate might just be the result of the ancestor’s pity for his disciples, and he had already laid the red thread for them.

It’s just that the road of love is difficult and the waves are tormenting.

Ni Yangzhou bowed respectfully and asked, "How should I find the other two magic weapons?"

"I remember my master saying that the Gathering Records were sent to the underworld after our ancestor ascended to heaven. Later, the sect created land to cultivate plants and supply them to the underworld in exchange for magic weapons. Has it been retrieved now?"

When it comes to this, Guan Mi couldn't help but show regret:

"The King of Hell had already agreed to the exchange out of consideration for our ancestors, as well as your relationship with Guan Jiao in recovering the lost items from the underworld. We've been sending them spiritual plants every month without interruption. However, when the two venerable Black and White Impermanence arrived with the Gathering Book, they happened to catch the first riot at the Void of All Things. They were about to draw a formation to activate the spirits, but the two venerables were directly sucked in."

Guan Miao's face was filled with sorrow. "Someone once saw the two venerables traveling through the bubble world. Having escaped the underworld officials of the Five Elements, they should not be easily disturbed by the barrier. But as the years passed, the two venerables disappeared without a trace, taking the Gathering Book with them."

Ni Yangzhou's expression tightened, and as he thought of his own experience, he asked tentatively, "Master, have you ever heard of the term 'system'?"

Guan Miao walked through nearly a hundred mazes, that is, the world in the bubble. Later, in order to maintain the order of the cultivators entering and leaving the trial, he killed his old friends in the small world, and then temporarily returned to the sect hall to handle affairs.

Guan Miao nodded. "Computer system? Ecosystem?"

Ni Yangzhou was stunned for a moment, and Guanmiao stroked his beard: "Don't be so surprised, I have also experienced the so-called modern world."

Ni Yangzhou laughed dryly and said, "It's not that kind. It's a system that is bound to the host."

Guan Miao shook his head. Every time he entered a bubble world, he focused solely on fulfilling the will of Heaven, essentially fulfilling Ni Yangzhou's main quest. He prioritized speed, completing his mission and leaving without a second thought. Therefore, while he had visited many other worlds, he had never delved deeply into them, let alone the concepts found in modern online novels.

Ni Yangzhou had to lick his lips and told Guan Miao about how he was thrown into the small world before he even reached Nascent Soul stage, and happened to be bound by the system to complete the task. When he talked about Yan Congzhi's situation before, Ni Yangzhou only used the world will to replace the system, but now he had to tell the whole story.

It's not that he wants to hide something, but Minghong Sect is the representative of the upright sects in the world of cultivation. Ni Yangzhou is worried that the main god system and his third brother will be regarded as evil forces infiltrating the world. If Master Guanmiao is righteous and wants to get rid of them as soon as possible, Ni Yangzhou really doesn't know what to do.

After all, the system does help innocent people like Kang Kang who died tragically to have a new chance to live again.

Unexpectedly, Guan Miao accepted this very well and was amazed at what he heard. He couldn't help but sigh repeatedly: "This is an opportunity that others can't ask for."

Ni Yangzhou thought to himself, this opportunity was given to me without even asking me if I wanted it.

Ni Yangzhou continued his analysis: "Disciple has heard of the interface... the interface fusion."

Guan Mi nodded. "I didn't expect Guan Jiao to tell you about this. It's true. The reincarnation path in the underworld was damaged before, and the Gathering Record Book was sent to suppress this trouble. Then the situation in the north became more critical, so I thought of borrowing the Gathering Record Book to help out."

Ni Yangzhou had actually heard this from his third brother. He didn't argue at this point, but simply said, "If the two venerables were to encounter a similar situation as mine, they would most likely lose their memories in the small world, thinking of themselves as people in that world and forgetting their true selves."

Guan Miao nodded. Ever since they discovered the abnormality in the northern border, they have been guarding the checkpoints and no longer allowing anyone below the Nascent Soul stage to enter. After all, only those with magical powers above the Nascent Soul stage can enter in person. Ni Yangzhou is the only cultivator who was accidentally brought in because his magical powers were not enough.

Guan Mi questioned, "The Black and White Impermanence's powers are far superior to those of a Nascent Soul, but they are also being disrupted by some 'system', making it difficult for them to escape?"

Ni Yangzhou shook his head: "Then I don't know. I am just guessing based on my experience of amnesia."

Guan Miao sighed: "Whatever, whatever."

"I have to go look for it eventually. The Underworld has asked me to do it, but I've been too busy and haven't been able to get away yet. It seems that this task must be entrusted to you."

Ni Yangzhou felt obligated to do so. He would do it no matter how difficult it was.

"Disciple will definitely do his best!"

"Alright, that's it for now. The most important thing right now is to know which maze the two Venerables, Black and White, have entered. I need to ask someone to come over. You should go and prepare first."

Ni Yangzhou said, "No need to prepare, I can set off immediately! Besides, the Immortal hasn't told me where the third magic weapon, the Burning Candle, is now."

Guan Miao, who had originally walked out of the hall, turned back. Now he acted like a master and taught, "The more urgent the situation, the calmer your mind must be. You are only at the ninth level of the Golden Core stage now. Practice your skills well and then seek after them when you reach the Nascent Soul stage."

"As for the candles..."

Guan Miao pointed at the humanoid pendant Ni Yangzhou was holding on his chest. "That's the one standing next to the chess table in Guan Jiao's study."

"It's that candle! But I remember Master once said that the candle's spiritual power has been exhausted and it can no longer be used?"

"Oh, yes." Guan Miao said nonchalantly, "The nibbles are gone. There was no substitute before, but now it just so happens that there's a lot of spiritual energy gathered at the bottom of the lake in the North Territory. I'll go there tomorrow and rub one for you."

……

Ni Yangzhou felt relieved. As Guan Miao hurried out of the hall, his voice echoed outwards from the golden hall:

"Disciple Huaiyu, I obey your orders."
