Chapter 56: Ancient Forbidden Land, Mysterious Wooden Token
True Person Jiuding noticed Su Qi as soon as he appeared and asked in surprise, "Is this your Disciple?"
Han Jue shook his head and said, "No, he is just my servant."
Su Qi wanted to speak but stopped, ultimately choosing silence.
True Person Jiuding carefully looked Su Qi up and down, his eyes lighting up as he said, "This child's Aptitude is quite good. It is truly a waste of talent for him to be your servant. Why not follow this old man overseas to pursue the Dao?"
Han Jue frowned, his heart skipping a beat.
Ancestor Master!
You are courting death!
True Person Jiuding looked at Su Qi, stroked his beard, and smiled, "Kid, are you willing? This old man is the founding Ancestor Master of the Jade Purity Sect. This is a great Opportunity!"
He directly bypassed Han Jue because he already understood Han Jue's personality.
This child was most afraid of trouble.
If he could take Su Qi away, Han Jue might even thank him.
Upon hearing this, Su Qi immediately became excited.
Han Jue couldn't help saying, "Ancestral Master, this child's situation is special; it's best not to take him in."
What could he say?
Say that Su Qi was a jinx?
Who would believe that?
True Person Jiuding asked with a half-smile, "What? Are you unwilling to let him go?"
Su Qi immediately said, "Thank you for your kind intentions, Ancestral Master, but I just want to stay here."
He wasn't stupid; True Person Jiuding was the founding Ancestor Master, yet someone of such status had personally come to visit Han Jue.
What did this mean?
Han Jue's status was not low!
It might even be comparable to True Person Jiuding!
"Very well."
True Person Jiuding smiled and wasn't angry either.
He walked over and sat beside Han Jue, smiling as he said, "Little friend, this old man has walked through all the Sects in the Great Yan Cultivation World. In the future, the Jade Purity Sect will never encounter danger again, so you can Cultivate in peace."
Han Jue smiled and said, "Ancestral Master is truly Ancestral Master, so formidable. With just a move from you, it is truly extraordinary."
True Person Jiuding stroked his beard and laughed heartily, immensely enjoying the flattery.
"When this old man went out this time, I discovered an ancient Forbidden Land with rich resources. I plan to claim it for myself and make it a place of practice for the Jade Purity Sect. This Forbidden Land has just been discovered, and there might be quite a few treasures hidden inside. Do you want to go take a look?"
Hearing this, Han Jue raised an eyebrow.
An ancient Forbidden Land?
Two characters instantly popped into his mind:
Dangerous!
Could it be the Forbidden Land that Zhou Fan fell into previously?
Han Jue quickly shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll leave it to the other Disciples of the Sect."
True Person Jiuding couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.
This kid was truly afraid of death.
That was fine too. His Disciples and Grand-disciples were all too rash; it would be better for the Sect to have an ascetic like Han Jue guarding it.
True Person Jiuding continued with a smile, "At most twenty years from now, this old man must leave. The Heavenly Immortal Manor is about to open, and I am preparing to enter the manor to pursue the Dao. Let me tell you, this Heavenly Immortal Manor has an extraordinary origin. Every hundred years, Disciples who undergo Ascension and achieve Immortal Ascension appear within…"
He began to talk endlessly.
Han Jue found it sounding familiar.
Wait!
Wasn't this the thing Xuan Qingjun wanted to give him when she first looked for him?
The Heavenly Immortal Manor token!
At that time, he refused.
Now it seemed that the Heavenly Immortal Manor was indeed extraordinary, since even someone like True Person Jiuding of the Void Fusion Realm Eighth Layer wanted to join.
Han Jue listened patiently.
Su Qi was also listening.
Finally.
"Hahahaha, by the time this old man returns next time, I might already be at the Body Integration Realm. My Grand-disciple said your Aptitude is outstanding and you will be able to catch up to this old man in a few hundred years. At that time, you and I will have a spell duel to see who is stronger." True Person Jiuding laughed proudly.
Han Jue was speechless.
He suddenly discovered that True Person Jiuding's personality deviated from what he had imagined.
This fellow had a heart for showing off.
That's right. True Person Jiuding's return this time could be described as incomparably sensational, and he even suppressed the Great Yan Cultivation World. Such a person's Heart-Nature would inevitably be a bit high-profile.
Han Jue shook his head and smiled, "Even if you give me a few thousand years, I still wouldn't be able to catch up to you, Ancestral Master!"
Hearing these words made True Person Jiuding happy inside.
[True Person Jiuding has developed Favorability towards you. Current Favorability: 1 Star]
Favorability was finally generated!
Han Jue had been wondering previously: with such a massive contribution to the Jade Purity Sect, why did True Person Jiuding have no Favorability toward him?
It turned out he hadn't flattered him!
True Person Jiuding was finally fully satisfied.
Coming to find Han Jue this time was just because he happened to be passing by.
He had previously been astonished to find that his prestige within the Jade Purity Sect was not the highest.
It was not as high as the God Slaying Elder!
True Person Jiuding had led the Jade Purity Sect toward strength, but the God Slaying Elder had saved the Jade Purity Sect. There was indeed a gap in weight between the two.
Coupled with the fact that True Person Jiuding was too high-profile and frequently walked around the inner Sect, almost all Disciples had seen him. On the other hand, aside from Yuyou Peak, most Disciples had never seen the God Slaying Elder, keeping him very mysterious.
Under such circumstances, the Disciples admired the mysterious God Slaying Elder even more.
After finishing his showing off, True Person Jiuding left in satisfaction.
Han Jue didn't think much more about it and continued to Cultivate.
…
Time flew by.
Ten years passed swiftly.
While the Jade Purity Sect rapidly grew stronger, Han Jue quietly Cultivated the entire time.
His cultivation broke through to the Spirit Transformation Realm Sixth Layer.
He once again used the Simulation Trial to battle True Person Jiuding.
This time, he lasted for half an hour.
He still lost!
"Sigh!"
Han Jue let out a sigh.
True Person Jiuding of the Void Fusion Realm Eighth Layer was indeed very strong.
Han Jue was in a bad mood and prepared to go out for a stroll.
He suddenly remembered that True Person Jiuding had already contacted Su Qi. Would he encounter bad luck?
He immediately opened the interpersonal relationships mail to check.
[Your friend Mo Fuchou encountered a monster attack]
[Your friend Mo Zhu encountered a monster attack]
[Your friend True Person Jiuding encountered a Heart Demon while Cultivating]
[Your friend True Person Jiuding lost a hundred years of Dao Cultivation due to the Heart Demon attack]
[Your friend Zhou Fan died, but a mighty figure brought him back to life and remolded his body for Rebirth]
…
Han Jue was amused.
True Person Jiuding really did suffer bad luck.
And Zhou Fan—this experience was completely that of a protagonist!
Han Jue shook his head and laughed, his mood improving as he stood up and left.
Su Qi was still absorbing Qi and Cultivating.
Han Jue hadn't taught him anything. Relying on basic Qi-absorbing methods, he had Cultivated all the way to this day without taking any Youth-Preserving Pills. By now, he had matured and was no longer the dashing youth of the past.
Xing Hongxuan had gone out a few years ago and had returned less than three days ago. Han Jue decided to go see her.
This was also Han Jue's first time coming to her Immortal Cave.
Xing Hongxuan was thrilled and stood up to welcome him.
After the two entered the Immortal Cave, Xing Hongxuan waved her hand, using a formation to close the cave entrance.
Han Jue surveyed her Immortal Cave. Although it was a cave chamber, it had a unique charm to it. Many picture scrolls hung on the walls, and the bed was a massive piece of flawless white jade.
Xing Hongxuan directly hugged his arm and pulled him to the table, smiling as she said, "Husband, you've come just in time. A few years ago, I went to an ancient Forbidden Land and obtained quite a few treasures inside. Come pick and see what you like."
With a gentle wave of her right hand, various treasures appeared on the table.
There were jade stones, Magical Artifacts, Heaven And Earth Treasures, and so on, all of which were quite small.
Han Jue sat down and scanned them with his Divine Sense.
He just scanned them casually.
Although Xing Hongxuan was already a Golden Core Realm Cultivator, what kind of treasures could she possibly find?
"Eh?"
Han Jue suddenly let out a sound of surprise.
His gaze fell upon a wooden token. This wooden token looked very much like a memorial spirit tablet.
Xing Hongxuan noticed his expression and smiled proudly, "How is it? If you like it, just take it away. Everything I have is yours, Husband."
Han Jue ignored her and picked up the wooden token.
The surface of this wooden token had no characters on it and looked completely ordinary.
However, Han Jue could capture a faint, ethereal Divine Thought inside it.
It was extremely weak!
Ordinary Spirit Transformation Realm Cultivators might not even be able to detect it.
Han Jue closed his eyes and probed his Divine Sense into it.
Boom!
His powerful Divine Sense broke through the Divine Thought inside the wooden token, and immediately afterward, a flood of memories poured into Han Jue's mind.
Xing Hongxuan raised both hands, cupped her cheeks, and looked at Han Jue.
It had been a long time since she had looked at him this closely.
Why was this face so handsome?
Xing Hongxuan was no longer young either, and having frequently gone out to temper herself through trials, she could be considered knowledgeable and well-traveled. Yet no matter how many proud sons of heaven she had seen, she still believed Han Jue was the most handsome.
He truly was the man she fell in love with at first sight.

Han Jue: Considering how handsome I am, how about throwing some recommendation votes and monthly votes my way?
