The Heavens: From Film and Mythology to Conquering Myriad Realms

However, the conditions of the Hidden Moon Sect are much worse than those of the Ghost Spirit Sect.

They then gave the Yan family two positions as elders of the Hidden Moon Sect.

Originally, the Yan family patriarch was quite satisfied with the conditions offered by the Hidden Moon Sect. After all, this would make their Yan Family Fortress the second largest family in the Hidden Moon Sect, and their status would immediately rise significantly.

The Zhou family is naturally the most powerful family in the Hidden Moon Sect. As long as Zhou Qingning, a Nascent Soul cultivator, is alive, the Zhou family's status in the Hidden Moon Sect will not change.

With Yan Ruyan possessing a Heavenly Spiritual Root, reaching the Nascent Soul stage is no longer an impossible feat for the Yan family.

A hundred years from now, it's not impossible for the Yan family to become a Nascent Soul family.

Compared to the Hidden Moon Sect, the Ghost Spirit Sect also has its disadvantages. One is that the location is too far away. Once they agree, the Yan Family Fortress will have to relocate as a whole. It will be troublesome to establish themselves in an unfamiliar place.

What truly attracted the Yan family patriarch was the Blood Spirit Technique of the Ghost Spirit Sect.

This is an extremely exquisite cultivation technique. When practiced with a cultivator of exceptional talent, the cultivation speed can be accelerated even further, and its power is also formidable. It is one of the top cultivation techniques within the Ghost Spirit Sect.

Upon hearing the words of the Yan family patriarch, Wang Chan's lips twitched involuntarily.

"As far as I know, my dear nephew, this is merely a verbal agreement between the Yan family and the Hidden Moon Sect. Could it be that Senior Yan took it seriously?"

Wang Chan cursed inwardly, thinking, "This old guy just wants to raise the price."

"Nephew, you don't know, although my Yan family is not large, it is still a well-known and reputable family. How could we break our promise?"

The Yan family patriarch smiled calmly and said with a serious expression.

"Senior Yan, you may not know this, but the six sects of the Demonic Path have already begun to attack the border of the Yue Kingdom. The destruction of the Hidden Moon Sect is only a matter of time."

Wang Chan knew that if she let the Yan family patriarch continue, it would never end, so she simply revealed an explosive piece of news.

"What did you say? That's impossible! The Tianluo Kingdom is bordered by the Jiang Kingdom and the Cheqi Kingdom. How could you have come to the border of the Yue Kingdom!"

The Yan family patriarch's expression changed, and he immediately stood up.

"Now that the Jiang Kingdom and the Cheqi Kingdom have long been under the control of our demonic path, the choice is up to you, Senior Yan."

Wang Chan smiled faintly, revealing an expression of confidence.

"Nephew Wang, please allow me to consider this. I will give you my answer in a few days, shall I?"

The Yan family patriarch wouldn't easily believe Wang Chan's words; he had his own methods to verify them.

"Senior Yan, please feel free to do as you please, just don't keep me waiting too long."

Wang Chan smiled slightly, calmly stood up, and left with two Core Formation cultivator bodyguards.

After Wang Chan and the others left, the three elders of the Yan family also gathered around.

"Ancestor, is this man's word credible? Could it be that the Jiang Kingdom and the Cheqi Kingdom have truly fallen?"

"How is this possible? These two countries have been at war with the six sects of the demonic path for many years. How could they suddenly fall!"

……

The three elders of the Yan family remained skeptical of Wang Chan's words and did not quite believe what she said.

"Whether it is or not, we'll know soon enough."

The Yan family patriarch sent out a communication talisman, instructing his disciples to begin gathering information about Jiang Guo and Che Qi.

……

After several days of flying in the spirit boat, Lu Yao and his group finally arrived at Yan Family Fort.

Yanjiabao is a city where cultivators and mortals live together. Cultivators are not allowed to bully mortals, and mortals are not allowed to offend cultivators. There are rules for everyone.

Under these circumstances, Yanjiabao became extremely prosperous, presenting a picture of its peak.

When Lu Yao and his group arrived at Yan Family Fortress, they were immediately greeted by disciples of the Yan family.

"Esteemed seniors of the Hidden Moon Sect, this way please. Guest rooms have been prepared for you in the fortress."

A young and beautiful disciple of the Yan family led Lu Yao and the others to a restaurant and settled them in.

When Lu Yao entered the restaurant, he immediately noticed that everyone inside was a cultivator.

Clearly, the restaurant had been booked by the Yan Family Fortress to accommodate the cultivators who came to attend the conference.

After the disciples of the Upper Moon Sect made their own arrangements, Lu Yao went to the second floor of the restaurant, where he saw a familiar figure.

On the second floor, there were two groups of cultivators with completely different temperaments. One group had a cold expression and seemed unfamiliar with the cultivators around them.

The other group was quite different; they were all disciples dressed in the attire of the seven major sects.

The familiar figure that Lu Yao saw was Han Li, who was listening intently to the other sect cultivators talking about the treasure-hunting event.

"Oh? Fellow Daoists from the Hidden Moon Sect have arrived."

A disciple of the Qingxu Sect, dressed in a Taoist robe, smiled as he saw Lu Yao approaching.

Upon hearing this, Han Li also looked over.

"Brother Yao, you've arrived."

Han Li greeted Lu Yao with a look of surprise and delight.

"What are you all talking about? I'd like to hear it too."

Lu Yao nodded to Han Li without making a sound, and then spoke to the other cultivators.

"Fellow Daoist, your timing is perfect. We were just discussing the treasures of the treasure-hunting tournament."

The burly man from the Giant Sword Sect sitting to the side also stood up and said with a smile.

"Oh? I've heard it's a talisman called the Qiankun Tower, quite extraordinary indeed."

Information about the treasure hunt immediately came to Lu Yao's mind.

In the original story, all the cultivators who went to participate in the treasure-hunting event were refined by Wang Chan using the Yin Fire Array to cultivate the Blood Spirit Technique, which was extremely cruel.

……

After talking with cultivators from other sects for a while, Lu Yao took the opportunity to hand Han Li over.

After sensing that no one was approaching, Lu Yao cast a soundproof spell.

"Brother Yao, what's wrong?"

Han Li was puzzled by Lu Yao's cautiousness.

"This treasure hunt is a trap, remember to stay away from it."

Lu Yao wasn't too worried that Han Li would be killed by Wang Chan. After all, with the Black Blood Blade in hand, Han Li could protect himself as long as those two Core Formation cultivators didn't make a move.

Although Wang Chan is insidious and ruthless, she has the unique characteristics of a great cultivator: arrogance.

If dealing with a cultivator like Han Li, whose cultivation level is still below one's own, requires a Core Formation cultivator to take action, it's worse than killing him. After all, it doesn't matter if one is no match for him, but one can't lose face.

"Damn it! Does the Yan family intend to make enemies of the seven major sects?!"

Han Li's expression changed. He hadn't expected the Yan family to be so ruthless, daring to even attack disciples from the seven major sects.

Be quick-witted then.

Lu Yao shook his head, said nothing, and casually removed the soundproofing spell.

Lu Yao waved to Han Li and then left the restaurant.

Lu Yao strolled around Yan Family Fortress and eventually arrived at a secluded street.

"After following us for so long, it's time to come out."

Lu Yao spoke calmly.

Upon entering the restaurant, Lu Yao sensed that someone was watching him. He then quickly exchanged a few words with Han Li and went out alone.

As soon as Lu Yao finished speaking, a round of applause rang out from the shadows.

"Wang Chan!"

Lu Yao watched the figure gradually emerge, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
