Clearly, regarding the exploration of the new world, not a single person present wished to opt out.
Xue Ping and the others seemed to have anticipated this response, nodding slightly in acknowledgment.
“In that case, let me outline the personnel arrangements for the upcoming journey to the new world.
Our Haoran Sect will be joining forces with Thunderclap Valley for this expedition.
The leaders of our teams will be Dao Integration elders from both our sect and Thunderclap Valley.
You will just need to follow their directions.”
Following this, Xue Ping shared more specific details with everyone present and then added,
“If there are no further questions, then our expedition to the new world will depart in a month.”
After most attendees had left, Xue Ping and Leng Yuehua, along with other senior figures, asked Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to stay behind.
“Martial Nephew Jiang, Martial Niece Shen, please stay for a while.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded.
Once the hall was clear, Xue Ping and Leng Yuehua turned to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, with Saint Zenith and the other saints looking on with evident curiosity.
“Cough cough…”
Suddenly, Xue Ping coughed twice before addressing Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan,
“The reason we’ve asked you to stay is that there’s a special mission we’d like to entrust to you.”
“A special mission?” J
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were slightly stunned.
“That’s right.”
Xue Ping nodded.
As he spoke, he took out a jade slip from his body and handed it to Jiang Chengxuan.
“During our prior explorations, we discovered a special location in the new world known as the Dao Origin Land.
To put it simply, it’s a place for comprehending the Dao.
Cultivators can gain immense benefits in comprehending rules and the Dao there.
Currently, only our Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley are aware of this information.
Your task is to locate this Dao Origin Land upon entering the new world, establish arrays, and secure it as a joint territory for both our sect and Thunderclap Valley.”
Hearing Xue Ping’s explanation, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were visibly taken aback.
They had not expected to be assigned such a significant task.
It was clear from Xue Ping’s description just how important the Dao Origin Land was.
The prospect of such a place would undoubtedly entice even Mahayana Daolords.
However, questions naturally arose. Why not assign stronger Dao Integration saints to search for such a crucial location?
And if its general vicinity had already been discovered, why did they need to find it again?
Could it be that this place could move on its own?
Seeming to understand their confusion, Xue Ping elaborated,
“To be frank, we only had a rough idea about the location of the Dao Origin Land initially.
We couldn’t pinpoint its exact location, largely due to the circumstances at the time.
Remember, the explorers who first entered the new world weren’t just from our Haoran Sect and Thunderclap Valley but included most of the righteous and demonic paths’ Dao Integration cultivators.
Any slight indication from us could have alerted others to the existence of the Dao Origin Land.
I assume you understand how vital a place that enables cultivators to swiftly enter a state of Dao comprehension is for us.”
After pausing briefly, Xue Ping continued,
“As for why you two are being sent, it was actually a suggestion from your Shifu.”
“Our Shifu’s suggestion?” Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan looked surprised.
Qin Shenwu hadn’t mentioned anything about this when they were on Shenwu Peak.
Xue Ping added, “Moreover, and most importantly, your strength is sufficient.
After entering the new world, Supreme Elder Leng Yuehua and Saint Zenith will have other critical tasks.
Furthermore, the Dao Origin Land is named as such because if a Dao Integration cultivator approaches, they will interact with certain Dao principles within, causing corresponding phenomena to emerge.
If that happens, it will attract widespread attention, making it very difficult for us to claim that place discreetly.
But it’s different for you two. As Void Returning cultivators, your approach won’t trigger the Dao Origin Land’s reactions.
Coupled with your sufficient strength to handle unexpected challenges, you are the ideal candidates for this task.”
Hearing Xue Ping’s explanation, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan finally understood the reasoning behind their selection.
They exchanged glances, then nodded to Xue Ping in unison.
“Sect Master, we accept this mission.”
Seeing Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s agreement, smiles appeared on the faces of Xue Ping, Leng Yuehua, and the others nearby.
Xue Ping nodded in satisfaction and said, “We truly did not misjudge you.
Rest assured, this mission is of great importance, and we will not let you take unnecessary risks.
Moreover, once the mission is completed, both our sects will provide you with adequate rewards.”
Jiang Chengxuan immediately shook his head,
“Martial Uncle Xue overstates our contribution.
As cultivators of the Haoran Sect and the Thunderclap Valley, it’s our duty to work for the sect. Martial Uncle Xue, you don’t have to do this.”
Xue Ping and the others, including Supreme Elders and Dao Integration saints, were very pleased with Jiang Chengxuan’s response.
Xue Ping took out a storage ring from his body and handed it to the two of them.
“In this storage ring are some protective treasures we prepared for you. Most importantly, there is a Level 8 protective array disc that our two sects have jointly crafted, the Haoran Divine Thunder Array.
Once you locate the Dao Origin Land, simply set up this array, and everything should be secure.
Also, the jade slip 1 gave you contains detailed information about the Dao Origin Land.
Once you enter the new world with Supreme Elder Leng and the others, you don’t need to stick with them the entire time. Find an appropriate moment to depart and proceed on your own.”
After receiving further instructions on some details, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan bid farewell to Xue Ping and the others, then returned temporarily to Cloud Mist Peak.
A month quickly flew by.
When the agreed-upon time arrived, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan did not delay at all and quickly joined the rest of their fellow disciples and brothers..
