Sect Master’s Immortal Journey

Jin LiDaoist Master and Meng Zhang, together, carefully counted the three treasure vaults.

These three treasure vaults were left behind by the predecessors of the Purple Gold Sect. They hoped that in case the sect encountered a disaster, the junior disciples could make a comeback by relying on these vaults. The treasure vaults were filled with numerous treasures, including a large quantity of spirit stones, elixirs, magic tools, and other resources.

Indeed, the Purple Gold Sect lived up to its reputation as a Primordial Spirit sect. Even rare Third Rank items, such as Third Rank magic tools and Third Rank Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, were found abundantly within the vaults, showcasing the sect's profound heritage.

Among all the treasures, what caught Meng Zhang's attention the most were the various inheritance and scriptures of the Purple Gold Sect. Among them were numerous marvelous techniques and fundamental cultivation methods, including the "Purple Gold Secret Canon," which could lead one directly to the Grand Dao of the Primordial Spirit.

Risking their lives to confront the wisp of soul of the Primordial Spirit True Monarch, they were able to obtain these spoils of war. Meng Zhang felt that this journey was not in vain.

However, Jin LiDaoist Master's emotions were not as high. Her purpose for coming here was to seek an opportunity to break through to the Primordial Spirit stage. Although these items were indeed precious, they didn't directly contribute to her breakthrough.

She casually skimmed through various scriptures of the Purple Gold Sect, and while they did offer some insights, she already had her main cultivation technique, a wide range of sect inheritances, and the guidance of the True Monarch Tian Zhu at the late stage of the Primordial Spirit. Relying solely on the scriptures in front of her wouldn't lead to significant breakthroughs.

Jin LiDaoist Master didn't say much and divided the spoils of war with Meng Zhang and the others.

As the main force against the True Monarch Vermilion wisp of soul, Jin LiDaoist Master had blocked the majority of his attacks and naturally deserved the largest share of the spoils.

With Jin LiDaoist Master overseeing the distribution, it was relatively fair. Taiyi Sect and Flying Swan Sect also received their portions.

Originally, the inheritance scriptures of the Purple Gold Sect belonged to Jin LiDaoist Master. Under Meng Zhang's strong request, he, along with Wen Qiansun and Delicate WaterSpirit General, worked together to make a copy of them.

Although they gained a lot from this, there wasn't much joy on Jin LiDaoist Master's face. After careful consideration, she left the treasure vault, flew into the sky, and wandered outside alone.

When she arrived at the place where the True Monarch Vermilion wisp of soul dissipated and landed on the ground, she closed her eyes in contemplation.

True Monarch Tian Zhu had once said that the greatest opportunity for her to break through to the Primordial Spirit stage was to enter this small world and face the wisp of soul of True Monarch Vermilion.

She had fought alongside others to kill that wisp of soul and obtained the treasures of the Purple Gold Sect, but she hadn't gained the so-called opportunity.

Slowly, she recalled every scene and feeling from the battle with the wisp of soul. By carefully sensing this place, she could still feel the traces of the Grand Dao's power left behind after its dispersal.

After a while, Jin LiDaoist Master suddenly opened her eyes. She had gained some insight into how to break through to the Primordial Spirit stage.

She called Meng Zhang and the others over and told them that she would be going into seclusion in this small world. She vowed not to come out unless she achieved the Primordial Spirit stage.

When she entrusted Meng Zhang to leave, she asked him to take the spoils of war belonging to Flying Swan Sect back and hand them over to Wu MingweiDaoist Master of Flying Swan Sect, along with her apologies.

If she succeeded in achieving the Primordial Spirit stage, she would definitely show her appreciation and make up for the losses of Flying Swan Sect.

In addition, her disciple, Jin Qiao'er, had already cultivated to the completion stage of the Foundation Building and was about to prepare for core formation. She gave Meng Zhang several storage bags to deliver to Jin Qiao'er and asked him to take good care of her and provide all the help he could in assisting her with core formation.

She owed Meng Zhang a favor, and she was determined to repay it in the future.

After explaining everything, Jin LiDaoist Master urged Meng Zhang and the others to leave.

She would stay alone in this small world, in seclusion, to make a breakthrough to the Primordial Spirit stage.

Meng Zhang and his three companions bid farewell to Jin LiDaoist Master and embarked on their journey home.

Returning from the Void to the Grand Dust World was not an easy task.

Luckily, the marks of the Great Void Restriction were still there. After the True Monarch Vermilion wisp of soul dissipated, there were no external obstructions, and the marks became clearer.

Their luck was not too bad, and they didn't encounter any accidents on their way back. They returned safely to the Grand Dust World and appeared outside the Mirage Desert.

After returning, Meng Zhang made a special trip to Flying Swan Sect's current mountain gate, Yellow Sand Ridge, to deliver the items entrusted to him by Jin LiDaoist Master and the things she asked him to take. He handed everything to Wu MingweiDaoist Master.

On the way, Meng Zhang considered whether he should swallow some of the items meant for Flying Swan Sect himself. However, he quickly dismissed the idea as it would be unscrupulous and inappropriate given his current status and position.

Most importantly, if he did something like that and it was discovered when Jin LiDaoist Master emerged from seclusion and communicated with Flying Swan Sect, he would be in big trouble.

Meng Zhang arrived at Yellow Sand Ridge and met with the only remaining Gold Core Daoist Master of Flying Swan Sect, Wu MingweiDaoist Master. He roughly recounted their experiences in the small world and how Fei ShiDaoist Master died in battle.

He then delivered Jin LiDaoist Master's entrusted message and a large amount of cultivation resources to Wu MingweiDaoist Master.

Wu Mingwei could not have imagined that Fei ShiDaoist Master would die in such a way. It was an unprecedented huge loss for Flying Swan Sect, almost shaking its foundation.

Wu Mingwei was a resolute person, but the thought of having to single-handedly support the future of Flying Swan Sect made him feel powerless.

After completing Jin LiDaoist Master's instructions, Meng Zhang comforted Wu MingweiDaoist Master a few times and then took his leave.

At such a time, saying too much might make others think he was gloating over their misfortune.

When Meng Zhang returned to Grand Lion Ridge, Wen Qiansun and Delicate WaterSpirit General had already returned.

They were carefully organizing the spoils of war, sorting them into different categories.

Although Jin LiDaoist Master took the lion's share of the spoils, she also treated Meng Zhang well. Besides some common resources, there were also some Third Rank Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects and a few Third Rank magic tools that Taiyi Sect urgently needed.

The news of Jin LiDaoist Master entering seclusion and cultivating in the small world of the Purple Gold Sect had to be kept strictly confidential. Meng Zhang didn't even tell Wu MingweiDaoist Master about it, only stating that Jin LiDaoist Master had some urgent matters to attend to and needed to temporarily leave the Endless Sea of Sand for a period of time.

Without Jin LiDaoist Master and Fei ShiDaoist Master, Taiyi Sect and Flying Swan Sect were once again at a disadvantage facing the Fire Cloud Sect and Yellow Lotus Sect's East River Branch.

Meng Zhang could only hope that the impact of the previous great battle was enough to deter the enemy from acting recklessly and to buy enough time for their side.
