Feng Bao placed the jug of wine beside Gu Ping and stretched out seven toes, looking at Gu Ping with the eyes of a madman, unable to fathom how Gu Ping had achieved such a feat.
Only seven.
Gu Ping took another large gulp of wine. Feng Bao was baffled by Gu Ping's earlier accomplishment, which involved defeating six Nascent Soul cultivators and one Divine Cultivator without losing a single match. What astonished Feng Bao the most was not Fei Xiao Zhang's defeat; it was the sight of a Golden Core Cultivator defeating a Divine Cultivator head-on, a miraculous scene that everyone present would never forget.
Could the One Qi Three Purities be the secret of the Cheng Dao Sect? The shock it brought to Xiao Zhang was comparable to the heavy blow Pei Shigui received from Gu Ping in A Distant Paradise.
The subsequent Three Talents Sword Formation further deepened Xiao Zhang's understanding of the strength of the person before him. Typically, one person could not set up a formation alone; they needed to prepare the array in advance to unleash its full power. Yet, Gu Ping was able to use the profound secret technique of One Qi Three Purities to single-handedly execute the Three Talents Sword Formation, leaving Xiao Zhang struggling to respond. In fact, Gu Ping ended the battle with a single move from A Distant Paradise, creating the illusion that Xiao Zhang had been under constant pressure throughout.
Afterward, Gu Ping tossed Xiao Zhang a small token radiating a rich aura—something an ordinary person like Coco had never even heard of. However, Xiao Zhang, being a direct disciple of Cheng Dao Sect, recognized it as the Dao Yuan Ling unique to Celestial Dao Gate, a special token only granted to those who reached Primordial Daoist East. Its function could partially negate heavenly laws.
That small token instantly resolved all of Xiao Zhang's doubts but raised even greater questions about Gu Ping's identity. He felt compelled to ask more questions; after all, he had only heard about Dao Yuan Ling but had never seen one in person. After his defeat, he hadn’t left immediately; others who failed had already activated their Universe Hall rings and returned to Cosmic Plaza.
Why didn’t he contact the Sect? Why did he sneak into Cangtian East Duel?
Xiao Zhang was puzzled. He couldn't understand why Gu Ping would want to avoid him and why he didn’t reach out to Chengdao Peak but instead came to Cangtian East Duel for no apparent reason. Moreover, if Qunqin Ping chose to conceal his identity, why did he expose it at that moment? All these uncertainties gave Xiao Zhang reasons to doubt Gu Ping.
When Gu Ping awakened, he found that Primordial Celestial Demon had given him two items: one was the Primordial Dao Foundation and the other was a small token whose purpose he had previously been unaware of. Later, upon discovering in the academy’s records that it was Dao Yuan Ling, he planned to create a false identity for his travels in Tiandong, thinking it might come in handy someday. Little did he expect that events in Eastern Extreme Secret Realm would disrupt his plans for exploring Cultivation World, forcing him into a risky collaboration with Light Path.
Feng Bao called out for another jug of wine as more people arrived.
Feng Bao understood that Gu Ping was likely referring to Jie Donglai's situation. He didn't deny it. Gu Ping was perceptive enough not to make things awkward and left quietly. It wasn't until Feng Bao had departed that he explained some matters to Xiao Zhang.
I knew that a few years ago, a Great War had erupted, followed by various events that caused the Primordial Dao to undergo significant contraction. I should have been aware of all this, but the crucial reason was that they no longer had contact with the Primordial Dao. Although Dao Zun had not been active in the world for some time, during critical moments, Yuan Tian Shixiong could still reach out to their master. Now, Gu Ping pointed to the sky but did not continue speaking. What he said was all true; after all, the death of Chen Taiyi had already been confirmed by Ye Youluo. Yan Dong had deceived the somewhat uninformed Xiao Zhang. It wasn't difficult; initially, Gu Ping casually mentioned something that left Xiao Zhang feeling quite conflicted, just in case Xiao Zhang sought someone to verify what he had just said. As the closed-door disciple of the World Honored One, few knew his identity, so it was best to avoid unnecessary trouble and prevent any leaks about his identity.
"Yimen?"
Xiao Zhang nodded. Although some matters were kept silent by the Elders outside the Sect, Xiao Zhang could still gather some rumors here and there. He found it quite uncomfortable dealing with those from outside the Sect. He didn't know if Gu Ping's earlier words were based on his guesses about the situations outside the Major Sects; in reality, Gu Ping had no understanding of what was truly happening outside Cheng Dao Sect.
That was wrong. After I returned to Tiandong City, I planned to stay for a few months, at least until the Sky East Tournament concluded before leaving. That blind man must have some significant plans regarding Ye Youluo and the Ninth Underworld this time.
I would strictly follow the Daoist Sect's orders.
Xiao Zhang activated the formation and left. Although he was half-convinced by Gu Ping's words, Dao Yuan Ling could not be false. Whoever held Dao Yuan Ling's leg would have their words considered as the Daoist Sect's decree; all disciples of the Primordial Daoist East would obey without question. That was an ironclad rule of the Daoist Sect, fearing that Xiao Zhang might not believe it.
