Chapter 623: Identity exposed, alliance meeting

To avoid such things from happening.

Cen Zhe simply set the external exchange price for Source Seeds to be the same as the recovery price for Source Seeds condensed by Blessed Cultivator disciples.

In this way, it could not only try to avoid private trading of Source Seeds condensed by Blessed Cultivator disciples in the sect, but also stimulate the motivation of Blessed Cultivator disciples to condense Source Seeds through a relatively high recovery price.

As long as the previous Blessed Cultivators of the Profound Yi Tianzong could condense more Source Seeds, even if these Source Seeds were traded and circulated at a flat price, it would be a profit for the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Just as Lin Fan began to close his eyes to comprehend the Blessed Cultivator secret method: Gather Source and attempt to condense Source Seeds.

Many Blessed Cultivator disciples also began to close their eyes to comprehend the Blessed Cultivator secret method: Gather Source after the initial excitement and ecstasy.

Among them were Fu Ding Dongxuan Fudi Master: Fu Dingtian, and Wenwu Dongxuan Fudi: Su Daobin, who had interacted with Ye Qingxuan a thousand years ago.

They actually also somewhat suspected that Ye Qingxuan was the Ancestor of Blessed Cultivators, "Ye Qingxuan," transmitted in the sound of heaven and earth, but they later directly gave up this idea.

Because the gap between the Blessed Cultivator Ye Qingxuan they remembered and the Ancestor of Blessed Cultivators "Ye Qingxuan" was simply too large.

A thousand years had passed.

They were still struggling among low-level Blessed Cultivators; how could the Blessed Cultivator Ye Qingxuan they knew have directly become the Ancestor of Blessed Cultivators who pioneered a new Dao?

Even Arabian Nights couldn't be so exaggerated, right?

Coupled with some jealousy, they directly denied this idea in their hearts.

Besides that, there were also Profound Capital Dongxuan Fudi Master: Du Xuanzong, Guang

As fellow Dongxuan Fudi cultivators who were ranked near Ye Qingxuan back then, they still had some impression of Ye Qingxuan's name.

However, as Ye Qingxuan's cultivation base and Dongxuan Fudi subsequently made major breakthroughs, the concerns in his heart gradually diminished, and he no longer deliberately disguised himself among the Dongxuan Fudi disciples.

Coupled with the fact that the time Ye Qingxuan spent in closed-door cultivation became longer and longer, he gradually lost the inclination to pay attention to the Dongxuan Fudi rankings established by the sect, which led to his ranking on the various Dongxuan Fudi lists plummeting.

Gradually, Du Xuanzong, Li Guangcai, Yu Lianghu, and the others forgot about Ye Qingxuan's existence.

Although they were somewhat familiar with the name "Ye Qingxuan" from the recent Heaven and Earth transmission, they did not think much of it.

After all, who could have imagined that a low-order Dongxuan Fudi disciple who was ranked near them back then would be the current Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation, renowned throughout the realm?

But sometimes, the truth is just that unbelievable.

Ye Qingxuan, the Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation who is already renowned throughout the entire Di Xuan Realm, is actually that inconspicuous, and even unremarkable, little Dongxuan Fudi disciple within the Profound Yi Tianzong.

In the stone pavilion outside the Qingxuan Dongxuan Fudi.

Ye Qingxuan and Bai Yi sat opposite each other.

Looking at Ye Qingxuan, who was brewing tea opposite him with a slightly calm and indifferent demeanor in his movements, Bai Yi could not help but ask:

"Qingxuan, the Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation, Ye Qingxuan, who was announced in the Heaven and Earth sound not long ago—that's you, isn't it, kid?"

Hearing this, Ye Qingxuan did not stop the movements of his hands; while brewing the tea, he smiled slightly and said:

"It is me. I didn't expect you to have guessed it so quickly, Dean."

Hearing Ye Qingxuan admit it directly, Bai Yi was instead somewhat puzzled: "You're not hiding it anymore, kid? You're just admitting it directly?"

Although Bai Yi was very suspicious that the newly born Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation was Ye Qingxuan, and the purpose of this trip was also to probe Ye Qingxuan.

But he did not expect that Ye Qingxuan would actually admit it so generously.

Looking at Bai Yi's puzzled appearance, Ye Qingxuan picked up the teapot to pour a cup of tea for Bai Yi, then smiled indifferently:

"Actually, besides being the so-called Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation, I am also the Master's personal disciple."

"So within this Profound Yi Tianzong, I actually have no need to hide it; otherwise, the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path I pioneered would not have spread through the sect so quickly."

"Since you have already guessed it, Dean, I naturally have no intention of continuing to hide it from you."

"It's just that I like quiet cultivation and dislike being disturbed by others, so I must trouble you, Dean, to help me keep this secret."

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's words, Bai Yi, who had already picked up his teacup, was stunned and said in shock: "What? You kid are actually the Master's personal disciple?"

He knew Ye Qingxuan hid his depth, but he had never imagined that Ye Qingxuan would actually be the personal disciple of the Master, Cen Zhe.

After all, as the personal disciple of the Master of the Profound Yi Tianzong, a hegemon-level power, Ye Qingxuan was truly too low-key in his daily life, wasn't he?

Such a big matter, and yet not a single piece of news had leaked out within the entire Profound Yi Tianzong?

If he hadn't taken the initiative to ask Ye Qingxuan today, I'm afraid even he, who had a fairly good relationship with Ye Qingxuan, would have been kept in the dark, right?

Facing Bai Yi's shock, Ye Qingxuan wore a smile and did not speak, only nodding gently.

Since the identity of the Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation could no longer be hidden, there was naturally no need to hide his identity as the Master's personal disciple.

Of course, if it were not necessary, he would not take the initiative to make a big fanfare about this matter within the Profound Yi Tianzong.

The reason he told Bai Yi this was just to hope that Bai Yi would have some reservations and not leak his news.

If there were really others within the Profound Yi Tianzong who came knocking to disturb his cultivation because of the name of the Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation, Ye Qingxuan.

Then exposing his identity as the Master's personal disciple would instead make it easier to deter others.

In short, with his current strength and status, he no longer had any need to deliberately hide himself within this Profound Yi Tianzong.

As long as it did not affect his quiet cultivation, whether it was exposed or not was no longer important to him.

Looking at Ye Qingxuan opposite him with a faint smile, Bai Yi sighed slightly:

"You kid, you really can endure loneliness. As the Master's personal disciple, you are actually able to stay in your own Dongxuan Fudi and cultivate in seclusion without coming out?"

Before coming, he had already prepared himself, but he did not expect that the extraordinariness Ye Qingxuan displayed would far exceed his imagination.

You must know, more than a thousand years ago, when he was the manager of the Dongxuan Fudi Academy, Ye Qingxuan was just a Dongxuan Fudi reserve disciple who had just joined the Dongxuan Fudi Academy, a mere Qi Refining realm cultivator.

And now, a thousand years later—subconsciously raising his teacup to drink the tea Ye Qingxuan had poured for him, and sizing up Ye Qingxuan opposite him, Bai Yi seemed to have thought of something; he suddenly gave Ye Qingxuan a meaningful look and said in a low voice: "I imagine your current cultivation base is not as simple as it looks on the surface, either!"

Hearing this, Ye Qingxuan chuckled and nodded:

"Hahaha, that's right."

Although he admitted it, Ye Qingxuan did not state his true cultivation base directly.

And Bai Yi, who had some understanding in his heart, did not continue to press the matter.

After staying in the stone pavilion for a while longer, Bai Yi, his doubts resolved, left the place with satisfaction.

Before leaving, Ye Qingxuan specifically gifted Bai Yi one Third-Order Cave Heaven Source Seed and one Third-Order Dongxuan Fudi Source Seed each.

The Source Seeds he gifted to Bai Yi were not restricted by the Profound Yi Tianzong; they did not necessarily have to be used to switch to the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path.

However, after Ye Qingxuan sent out the Source Seeds, he did not speak to interfere with Bai Yi's choice.

How to choose between the three paths of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation would be up to Bai Yi himself. After Bai Yi left, Ye Qingxuan did not stay long in the stone pavilion in the outside world.

Returning to the Qingxuan Cave Heaven, he sensed the places where Ye Zhaoyu, Liu Yun'er, Liu Cai'er, and the others were in closed-door cultivation.

Seeing that there was no reaction for the time being, Ye Qingxuan began to cultivate by nourishing the prototype of the Eighth-Order Array Diagram while swallowing the spiritual energy within the Eighth-Order spiritual vein.

At the same time, as the matter of the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation inheritance became the talk of the town within the Profound Yi Tianzong, certain Elders within the Profound Yi Tianzong could no longer help but start to take action.

Since some disciples within the Profound Yi Tianzong could guess that the Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation, Ye Qingxuan, who was announced in the Heaven and Earth sound not long ago, was a person from the Profound Yi Tianzong.

As Elders of the Profound Yi Tianzong, they were naturally no exception.

Perhaps because of curiosity about Ye Qingxuan's identity, or perhaps because of other reasons.

Some Elders of the Profound Yi Tianzong had already begun to use their own power to secretly investigate Ye Qingxuan's true identity within the sect.

According to the information revealed when the Heaven and Earth sound was transmitted not long ago, he was a Dongxuan Fudi cultivator, and his name was Ye Qingxuan.

With this targeted information, as Elders of the Profound Yi Tianzong, it was actually not difficult for them to find Ye Qingxuan's public information within the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Very quickly, Ye Qingxuan's public information was already placed before certain Elders of the Profound Yi Tianzong.

In a certain Ninth-Order Cave Mansion in the Profound Heaven Mountain Range.

Several Elders with good friendships gathered together, discussing the information that had just been reported.

"There is only one person named Ye Qingxuan among the Dongxuan Fudi disciples? Could it be him?"

"How is that possible? A mere Third-Order Dongxuan Fudi disciple? Joined the Profound Yi Tianzong only a thousand years ago? What can one do in a mere thousand years?"

"That's true, in a mere thousand years, wanting to grow from the Qi Refining realm to become an Ancestor of a path who pioneered a path is indeed a bit wishful thinking."

"Strange, could it be a mistake? Looking at this information, it really doesn't look like this little guy pioneered the new Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path, does it?"

"Could it be that our Profound Yi Tianzong has other hidden Dongxuan Fudi disciples? Or rather, is that Dongxuan Fudi cultivator Ye Qingxuan who pioneered the new Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path not a person from our Profound Yi Tianzong?"

"Why think so much? Why don't we just go to the 'Qingxuan Dongxuan Fudi' and ask this disciple, and it will be clear?"

"That's true, it won't waste much time anyway, shall we go together?"

"Fine, let's go!"

However, the small movements of these Elders were quickly noticed by the Master of the Profound Yi Tianzong, Cen Zhe.

After thinking slightly, once he thought of his disciple's temperament, Cen Zhe stepped in to intervene in all of this.

Consequently, those few Elders had just left the Cave Mansion when they received Cen Zhe's decree:

"Ye Qingxuan is my personal disciple; from now on, no one belonging to the Profound Yi Tianzong shall disturb the quiet cultivation of my personal disciple Ye Qingxuan without cause."

Looking at Ye Qingxuan's decree, among the Elders who had just left the Cave Mansion, one of them smiled bitterly:

"It seems it really was the Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path pioneered by this kid; otherwise, our actions would not have drawn the Master to specifically issue a decree."

Hearing this, another unkempt Elder suddenly laughed loudly:

"Hahaha, since the Master has already explicitly forbidden it, let's go back! Anyway, the curiosity and doubts in my heart have been resolved; as for the rest, I don't really care."

"The Ancestor of Dongxuan Fudi cultivation, pioneering a path at such a young age—the Master is worthy of being this kid's teacher."

Hearing this, an Elder beside him laughed in spite of himself:

"Pfft, Old Man Xuan, your mouth is as foul as ever; I'm sure you said that on purpose to anger the Master."

At the same time, on Profound Heaven Peak, Cen Zhe's face suddenly darkened.

He couldn't help but raise his hand, thought about it, and then put it back down.

"Forget it, why bother with this old fogey? If you don't listen, you won't be bothered!"

As he said this, Cen Zhe's heart stirred, and he directly sealed Old Man Xuan's mouth from a distance.

After doing all this, Cen Zhe suddenly felt much more comfortable.

It was not just these few Elders; the other Elders who had not yet had time to act, or who had not thought of acting at all, all received Cen Zhe's decree.

For a time, the many Elders within the Profound Yi Tianzong were shocked.

"Ye Qingxuan? When did the Master get another personal disciple? Strange!"

"The Master's personal disciple? Ye Qingxuan? Could it be that he pioneered the new Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path?"

"So that's how it is. I was saying, the new Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path had only just been pioneered, how did the Dongxuan Fudi inheritance appear in our Profound Yi Tianzong? I didn't expect this brand-new Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path to have been pioneered by the Master's personal disciple."

"Hahaha, Ye Qingxuan? Worthy of being the personal disciple of our Profound Yi Tianzong's Master!"

With Cen Zhe's decree, although Ye Qingxuan's identity was thoroughly exposed before the many Elders of the Profound Yi Tianzong, likewise, no Elder dared to disturb Ye Qingxuan's cultivation anymore.

Ye Qingxuan, who was still cultivating in seclusion in the Qingxuan Cave Heaven, did not know that his Master had solved another troublesome matter for him.

As time passed, although the popularity of the Dongxuan Fudi inheritance in the Profound Yi Tianzong became more and more intense, none of this affected Ye Qingxuan's quiet cultivation.

A few short days passed in the blink of an eye.

Without the knowledge of the people in the Profound Yi Tianzong, Cen Zhe had already quietly left the Profound Yi Tianzong.

Through shuttling through the void, Cen Zhe quickly arrived at the headquarters of the Di Xuan Realm Alliance in the Central Region from the Profound Yi Tianzong.

After sneaking into the great hall where the Di Xuan Realm Alliance meeting was being held, looking at the many Mahayana realm fellow Daoists who had already arrived in the hall, Cen Zhe's mouth curled up slightly:

"Fellow Daoists, you've arrived quite early!"

Hearing this, many Mahayana realm powerhouses in the hall glanced at Cen Zhe with annoyance.

Seeing this, Master Lingxiao shook his head slightly:

"Alright, Fellow Daoist Cen Zhe, everyone has been waiting for a long time."

"Since you proposed the meeting, you should preside over this meeting!"

Hearing this, Cen Zhe nodded slightly, and without wasting any more time, he went straight to the point:

"I believe everyone already knows that I called this meeting because of the new Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path pioneered not long ago."

"According to the rules we jointly set before, any cultivator who perfects the original Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path of the Di Xuan Realm can receive a heavy reward from our Di Xuan Realm Alliance."

"This time, I want to discuss with you fellow Daoists the rewards for perfecting and pioneering this new Dongxuan Fudi cultivation path."
