Immortal Dao is dead, I am the mastermind behind it all.

"What? The teleportation array in Imperial Continent costs spirit stones? And ten million?"

"You stinking outsider, are you begging for food in Linzhou, the capital of China?"

"What's with the arrogance! If you're so capable, let's have a one-on-one match offline!"

Shen Moyan decisively shut down the forum on Jiuge.com.

The forum environment is so disgusting, it's better not to look at it at all.

"Going to Dilin Prefecture is a bit troublesome."

The Imperial State is the headquarters of the Holy Court. If some of the karmic threads on my body are not properly dealt with, they might be discovered by those big shots.

The Holy Court's attitude towards the God of Fate is strange; it does not want the God of Fate to appear in the public eye.

"The karmic threads connecting me to the God of Fate are still attached to me. If I go to Dilin Prefecture now, wouldn't I be walking into a trap?"

After much deliberation, Shen Moyan decided to make visiting the Origin Preaching Stele in Dilin Prefecture a long-term plan.

"Anyway, the 'Scripture of Detachment from All Forms' encompasses the Purple Mansion Realm. Let's cultivate it for more than ten years first, and then go when we have the ability to gather the causal threads."

Shen Moyan started browsing Jiuge.com again, preparing to find a real person to ask for advice on how to visit a mansion.

After all, it concerns his future supernatural abilities, so he can't be careless.

"I heard that the Linglong Master's Dojo is recruiting guest retainers who understand array formations and can assist with miscellaneous tasks. The pay is quite generous. Perhaps this is a good place for them?"

"Linglong Zhenren? Is that the one known as 'the foremost expert in the Purple Mansion under Guicang,' who is an expert in the evolution of supernatural powers and has built the foundation of the Purple Mansion for many True Lords?"

"Exactly! It's said she's at the peak of the Purple Mansion realm, and her understanding of the Purple Mansion realm, especially the combination of supernatural powers and the Purple Mansion domain, is unparalleled!"

"Even some True Monarchs of Guicang treat her with utmost respect. If we could receive even a little guidance from her, it would be of great benefit to us in stabilizing our cultivation levels and even in finding opportunities for breakthroughs!"

"Alas, the idea is good, but who can keep up with the thinking of the Linglong True Person? Even cultivators who have transformed into mortals and reached the highest level of cultivation cannot even find the door to her Daoist abode when they seek to discuss the Dao with her..."

The forum was filled with helplessness.

Shen Moyan's heart stirred.

Linglong Zhenren, the foremost master of the Purple Mansion under the Gui Cang realm, is an expert in the evolution of supernatural powers...

Although he had seen the elusive and comprehended the supernatural power of the momentary eternity, which touched upon the eternal Dao, he still possessed this power.

However, there are still many unclear points regarding how to systematize this understanding and how to construct the Purple Mansion that best suits one's own Great Dao.

Conventional methods of constructing the Purple Palace are probably insufficient to contain the extraordinary Daoist essence of "Xi Yi" and "Yong Heng".

Even with the "Sutra of Detachment from All Forms," ​​Shen Moyan wasn't entirely confident.

This exquisite immortal might be the key to his breakthrough to the Purple Mansion realm and solidifying his foundation!

He browsed the Jiuge website and then, through various channels, inquired in more detail about Linglong Zhenren.

It was confirmed that its training ground is located on "Chaoyin Island" in the southeast of Qixing Prefecture. It is a spiritual island at sea with a serene environment and dense array formations.

Linglong Zhenren was devoted to the study of the Purple Mansion Great Dao and supernatural powers, and disliked worldly affairs.

However, it is not entirely heartless. Occasionally, it will issue research tasks that require assistance from special formations or supernatural theories, using this as a threshold to select those who are destined to succeed.

After much deliberation, Shen Moyan decided to go and try his luck as a "Formation Master of the Feiguang Prefecture Formation Pavilion".

He has some of the weapon-making skills from the "Records of Various Weapons" as a foundation, and his understanding of Daoist principles, formations, and weapon-making far surpasses that of his peers.

Having personally experienced the mystery of "momentary eternity" and possessing unique insights into the theory of supernatural powers, he might pique the interest of this true master.

Several days later, outside Chaoyin Island.

The waves crash against the shore, and the clouds and mist swirl around, revealing the verdant mountains and pavilions dotting the island, a scene full of vitality yet exuding a sense of aloofness.

Shen Moyan's paper doll stood on the waves.

That's right, he used a paper doll, but this time he infused it with 90% of his magic power, directly using his divine sense to control it.

Following the rules he had learned, Shen Moyan did not force his way in, but instead activated a communication array on a reef on the outer edge of the island.

He sent his visit request, along with a token symbolizing the Feiguangzhou Buzhen Pavilion.

After waiting for a long time, just when he thought he would be turned away, the array flashed with a faint light, and a calm female voice came:

"Bring this talisman to the island and come to Yixin Pavilion."

A jade talisman with a faint blue luster emerged from the formation.

Shen Moyan took the jade talisman and stepped into the mist as instructed.

Guided by the light of the jade talisman, he passed through the small island constructed of several layers of formations, and suddenly the view opened up before him.

A wide platform paved with white stones is suspended over the cliff on one side of the island.

Below is a turbulent sea, and above is a vast, windy sky.

In the center of the platform is a pavilion.

Yixin Pavilion is covered with glazed tiles and white jade railings, with light gauze hanging on all four sides, swaying gently in the wind.

The pavilion was furnished with many futons, and a censer on a table emitted wisps of smoke.

A person was already sitting in the pavilion with their back to him, looking down at the fish swimming in the sea.

She was dressed in a flowing purple dress with wide sleeves, her figure was slender, and her black hair was loosely tied up with a single purple hairpin.

Just by looking at his back, one can sense his noble bearing and otherworldly elegance.

Shen Moyan's eyes narrowed slightly.

This woman did not exude any imposing aura; instead, she possessed a serene quality that blended seamlessly with the surrounding spiritual energy.

From Xi Yi's perspective, he saw layers upon layers of nested Daoist radiance flowing around this woman.

Although his Purple Mansion aura was not fully manifested, the harmonious and flawless, almost natural Daoist charm far surpassed any Purple Mansion cultivator he had ever seen before.

This legendary "Number One Person Under the Purple Mansion" and "Exquisite Hands" Linglong Zhenren may actually have some skill.

Suppressing a slight surprise, Shen Moyan stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

"Shen Moyan from the Feiguang Prefecture's Array Pavilion, I have taken the liberty of visiting and have come to pay my respects to the Linglong Immortal."

Upon hearing this, the woman turned around. She looked to be no more than twenty years old, with an exceptionally beautiful face and fair, almost translucent skin.

Her eyes, clear as autumn water yet deep as the starry sky, were calmly gazing at Shen Moyan as he approached.

Shen Moyan's pupils suddenly contracted!

These eyes, without a doubt, belong to the Star Eyes of the Heavenly Mystery Divine Sect!

In a flash, Shen Moyan's clone tensed his muscles and his magical power surged, almost causing him to suddenly retreat.

Linglong Zhenren looked Shen Moyan up and down, and when she saw the disguised Yi Mo Hu at his waist, she suddenly smiled, a smile that was pure and innocent.

"So you're the one who killed Junior Brother Xingxiang?"

She spoke lightly and got straight to the point.

Shen Moyan: "??"

"I can't believe it! Xuanhuang really is gone. Although Junior Brother Xingxiang's exploration was a bit complicated, the result... well, judging from your expression, it's confirmed!"

She nodded to herself, walked to the tea table in the pavilion, sat down, and began to arrange the exquisite tea set. Her movements were fluid and graceful.

"Sit down, don't stand."

"As for my junior brother Xingxiang... I'm not familiar with him. Life and death are predestined; if he dies, he dies." She said casually.

"But you, after killing him, managed to survive the massive horde of demons and make your way to Seven Star State... That's quite interesting."

Shen Moyan stood frozen in place, his internal alarm bells ringing wildly, yet he was somewhat taken aback by the other party's unexpected reaction.

Is there something wrong with Linglong Zhenren's brain?

My brain circuits are jumping around a bit too fast; only someone like Shen Moyan, who has met Xi Yi, could keep up.

Fine, let's try to extract some information.

Anyway, it's just a clone, so I might as well give it up.
