I Have an Omen System

Chapter 346: Chapter 227: Cyan Cloud Taoist

According to information obtained personally by the Old Ancestor.

Of the three great sects, the Water Mirror Palace was the least likely destination!

The two exchanged disingenuous pleasantries for a moment longer before Wei Qingyi transformed into a streak of green and left, looking quite pleased.

Silence returned to the Cave Mansion.

...

「Meanwhile, deep within the Cyan Cloud Sect.」

A majestic Immortal Palace floated above a sea of clouds.

"Your disciple pays her respects, Master!"

A beautiful young Female Cultivator of about twenty, with a graceful figure and hair like a cascade of black silk, was bowing in greeting.

The young Female Cultivator wore a plain white Daoist Robe. Her features were picturesque, and her skin was fairer than snow. Her eyes were especially striking—as clear as a cold autumn pond. With every glance, an air of refined nobility flowed from her, marking her as a person of extraordinary temperament.

Before the young Female Cultivator stood a middle-aged Daoist with a gaunt face, dressed in a black Daoist Robe with his hands clasped behind his back.

"Xuan’Er, the great age of conflict from ten thousand years ago is about to begin anew. Are you truly certain you wish to accept the position of Daoist?"

The middle-aged Daoist sighed softly and spoke in a low voice.

He turned around, and as his eyes opened and closed, the birth and death of stars could be faintly seen within them.

This was none other than one of the three Supreme Elders of the Cyan Cloud Sect, a cultivator at Nascent Soul Peak: the Beidou Shichen Daoist Monarch!

"I have made up my mind. Senior Brother Fang was killed by the Demon Sect’s previous Sinful Demon, Chen Xuanba, and Junior Brother Xiao was grievously wounded by the current prospective Demon Child, Liu Mobai..."

"Each and every one of these incidents is a profound humiliation!"

"The great powers are clashing. If our Daoist Sect doesn’t act now, the Daqian Court will surely think we are without capable people. I cannot swallow this insult."

Ye Qingxuan spoke with conviction, her gaze firm.

She was the current Daoist of the Cyan Cloud Sect!

Even Wei Jieyue had never imagined that this generation’s Daoist of the Cyan Cloud Sect would be a Female Cultivator.

"Good. Since you possess such a heart for the Dao, if I were to continue holding you back, it would make me seem cowardly."

The Beidou Daoist Monarch’s voice was gentle as he gave a wry smile. "The Blood Demon Sword Sect’s Demon Child trials have begun. Your very existence is their greatest target. This journey down the mountain will be fraught with danger. Remember to protect yourself well."

Ye Qingxuan bowed. "I understand. I will not betray the Sect’s high hopes."

The Beidou Daoist Monarch nodded. With a flick of his sleeve, a clear radiance enveloped Ye Qingxuan.

Her figure visibly grew a little taller, a faint Adam’s apple appeared, her chest flattened, and the lines of her face became sharper and more defined.

In the blink of an eye, she transformed from an exquisite young woman into a handsome young man with a heroic air.

Even the aura around her became balanced and serene, without a trace of femininity.

"Master, this is..." Ye Qingxuan said, astonished.

"This is the power of the Tier Five True Artifact, the Illusory Immortal Jade. No one below Nascent Soul Peak will be able to see through your true form."

"From this day forward, you are Lin Feng, a True Inheritance disciple of the Wind and Thunder Sword Pavilion. You are to travel to the Water Mirror Palace on my orders to pay a visit to the Golden Core Palace Master, Zhong Cui, and request guidance on the ways of cultivation."

The Beidou Shichen Daoist Monarch spoke with a serious expression, then took out three items whose brilliant light was contained within.

"This journey will be perilous. I will bestow upon you three more Magical Treasures for your protection. Rest assured, this does not violate the Sect’s trial rules."

As he spoke, the Beidou Shichen Daoist Monarch waved his hand.

Three brilliant balls of light floated in the air, transforming into a palm-sized Profound Turtle Shell, an exquisite Silver Talisman, and a lifelike doll.

The Beidou Daoist Monarch said softly, "These three Magical Treasures are all at the peak of Tier Three. The first is the Profound Turtle Spirit Armor Shield. By injecting it with Spiritual Power, it can form a Light Shield that automatically protects its master. No one below the Golden Core realm will be able to break your defense."

"The second is the Heaven’s Edge Shifting Talisman. It contains the Power of Space and can instantly teleport you ten thousand li away. It can also guard against an ambush from a Golden Core cultivator."

"The third is a Substitute Puppet. It is perfectly lifelike and can take a single fatal blow in your stead..."

The Beidou Daoist Monarch’s expression was solemn. "Xuan’Er, each of these three treasures can save your life once."

"Your mission is to undergo your trial, Refining the Heart in the Red Dust, and raise your Cultivation to the Ninth Level of the Purple Mansion as quickly as possible. When the time comes, the Sect will summon you back, open a Golden Core Blessed Land, and help you condense a Dao Golden Core."

"Remember, self-preservation is your first priority! In a moment of crisis, if you truly cannot defeat the Demon Sect’s current Demon Child, then it is better to cast aside the title of Daoist!"

"I understand! Thank you, Master!"

Ye Qingxuan’s delicate frame trembled, and tears welled up in her eyes.

She solemnly accepted the three treasures, gave the Beidou Daoist Monarch a deep bow, and then turned away.

With resolute steps, she walked into the Gate of Light that led down the mountain.
