"Hehe, you rascal."
The gray-clad elder, having lived through countless ages, could surely see through Ji Haoyuan's thoughts by now.
Nonetheless, he shook his head at Ji Haoyuan and said:
"There are some things that I am not unwilling to tell you, but because you have not reached that level yet, knowing too much will not benefit you much.
Moreover, if anyone should tell you, it should be your master.
If I overstep my bounds, what would that be?"
"Hmm? My master?"
Ji Haoyuan was taken aback immediately.
He saw the gray-clad elder smile again and say, "Do you really think that someone like you, who has truly comprehended one of the Seven Great True Scriptures of our Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land, would have no one take you as a disciple?
Ordinary true inheritors all have their own masters, let alone you, a direct lineage true inheritor who has comprehended one of our Holy Land's Seven Great True Scriptures.
All you need to do is go out and decide which Celestial Monarch or Mahayana you should apprentice under."
"Apprentice under a Celestial Monarch or Mahayana?"
Upon hearing the gray-clad elder's words, even if Ji Haoyuan had a remarkable state of mind, he couldn't help but be truly shocked at this moment.
Not to mention that within their Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land, there were currently three Mahayana cultivators; just the Celestial Monarchs numbered eight.
Each of them has reached the level of Harmonization.
Such beings, although not standing at the pinnacle of the Central Earth Divine Continent, are very close.
As long as the Mahayana do not emerge, the Celestial Monarchs reign supreme.
In the presence of such figures, Great Venerables, even Refining Void Divine Monarchs, are of little consequence, almost like ants.
And he, precisely has the chance to apprentice under such figures.
Does this not mean that in the future, he would have deep roots within the Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land, and even the entire Central Earth Divine Continent?
Ji Haoyuan is not someone who would pass up such an opportunity.
With such a chance to secure a profound background for himself, of course, he wouldn't refuse.
With this thought, what was Shanghuai Mountain, or anyone behind him, seemed utterly insignificant.
Of course.
Given his current status, even without a master behind him, Shanghuai Mountain and their affiliates dare not, and indeed cannot, do anything to him.
On the contrary, what should worry going forward is Shanghuai Mountain and those behind him.
Looking at it this way, his venture to challenge the Ten Thousand Laws Map was truly a wise move.
"Alright, I'm all finished here. If you have no other issues, you should leave now.
I believe that after some time, you might become famous in our Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land.
At that time, Spirit Peak might be inundated with visitors. Just hope you maintain your original intentions and don't be blinded by superficial things."
At these words, the gray-clad elder clearly had no intention to keep Ji Haoyuan any longer, waving his hand at him.
Seeing this, Ji Haoyuan did not immediately leave as the gray-clad elder suggested, but first respectfully bowed deeply to him, and then asked:
"Dare I ask how to address you, senior?
In the future, can this junior come visit you?"
Ji Haoyuan's words caught the gray-clad elder's attention, who looked at him again with a faint smile.
"I have long since forgotten what my name is, but within the sect, people call me Elder Wan. You may call me that as well, if you wish.
As for whether you can come visit in the future, as a direct lineage true inheritor, you naturally have the qualification.
But that depends on whether you can obtain the pass order again."
So that's how it is.
To come here again, one must obtain the pass order again?
Earlier, when challenging the Ten Thousand Laws Map, Ji Haoyuan already found out that the Ten Thousand Laws Map was a remarkable place for comprehending various Daoist Skills and Divine Techniques.
And it still harbors many other mysteries he has yet to discover.
If sect disciples can only come here once in their lifetime, it would certainly be too unfortunate.
Now it seems.
The real situation is not like that.
At least for someone like him, a direct lineage true inheritor, as long as he obtains the pass order Elder Wan mentioned, he has the chance to enter the Ten Thousand Laws Tower again.
Thinking of this, Ji Haoyuan bowed deeply to the gray-clad elder once more, with sincere tone:
"Then, this junior will not disturb Elder Wan.
When I obtain the pass order someday, I will visit Elder Wan again."
Having said that, Ji Haoyuan did not hesitate any longer and stepped out of the Ten Thousand Laws Tower.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
And at this very moment.
The entire Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land suddenly heard a continuous ringing of bells.
The bell rang across tens of thousands of miles, continuously for six times.
Whether they were in seclusion or not, the cultivators of Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land, unless they have sealed off all external senses, heard the continuous bell clearly.
Initially, some people did not immediately understand what the bell was about.
But once they listened carefully and confirmed the number of rings, expressions of shock appeared on their faces.
Six Sounds of the Golden Bell, this is?
Our Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land has indeed had someone pass all ten levels of the Ten Thousand Laws Map, thus achieving the position of true inheritance within the Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land!
At this moment, from ordinary outer disciples to each household's stewards, the external Void Refining elders, even those true inheritors, were all alarmed.
Especially.
Nangong Jin, who was presently outside the Ten Thousand Laws Tower.
He looked at Ji Haoyuan, who was slowly walking out from within the Ten Thousand Laws Tower, full of astonishment and disbelief.
"Nan... Nanhua, you... you are?"
"Hmm...?"
Seeing Nangong Jin there, Ji Haoyuan was first surprised.
But subsequently, he understood something and smiled slightly at him.
"Elder Nangong, why? Is there a problem?"
"Hiss!"
Almost instinctively, Nangong Jin took a deep breath before looking at Ji Haoyuan, still using a tone of disbelief:
"Nanhua, did you hear the ringing of the Golden Bell?
You were here challenging the Ten Thousand Laws Map earlier, could it be that the ringing of the Golden Bell was actually because of you...?"
He did not finish his sentence, but Ji Haoyuan already understood his meaning and responded with a slight smile.
"If no one else had entered the Ten Thousand Laws Tower before, then the current ringing of the Golden Bell should indeed be related to me."
"Re... really related to you?"
Although Nangong Jin knew Ji Haoyuan would never joke about such matters.
At this moment, he still felt as if he was hit by a stone, stunned.
After all, he had already anticipated various scenarios for Ji Haoyuan's challenge of the Ten Thousand Laws Map.
But he had never imagined that Ji Haoyuan would pass through all levels in one go, thereby causing the Six Sounds of the Golden Bell.
