Chapter 470 Xuan Zhen Temple (2/2)

Shen Lian smiled, ”If you can understand that, it means the sect you cultivate under focuses on the governance of the nature. Furthermore, as you're an unusual object who managed to study the proper techniques, it seems like you're not from an average sect. Now I am interested.”

Liu Mengde said, ”Everything I learnt was from Xuan Zhen Temple, but as there are countless students under Xuan Zhen Temple, I am not recorded as their students. My master Mu Zhen was the real famous successor of Xuan Zhen Temple.”

He spoke about Xuan Zhen Temple carefully, but Shen Lian did not seem to have a reaction.

One had to know that Emperor Xia did not quite like Daoism or Buddhism, and hence within Da Xia, there was rarely any temple. For those that could be conserved, all of them were famous in the world.

Xuan Zhen Temple was one of them.

Due to Da Xia's restriction on Daoism and Buddhism, there were very limited number of space available for Daoist students. Hence, even though Xuan Zhen Temple was famous, there were less than fifty students. All of them went through a thorough elimination process to be able to register under Da Xia as Zhenren.

The most famous seven from Xuan Zhen Temple was called Xuan Zhen Qi Zi. They each represented Xuan Zhen Temple's seven branches.

Liu Mengde's master, Mu Zhen was one of Xuan Zhen Qi Zi - Chang Shengzi's student. Hundred years ago he was already registered under Da Xia, with the Zhenren nomination. Chang Shengzi was also the one with the most mana among the Xuan Zhen Qi Zi. Even though there were lots of powerful people in Da Xia, not many could be his enemy. Even Emperor Xia's younger brother too made his son to study under Chang Shengzi.

Regardless of how powerful Shen Lian could be in his previous life, Liu Mengde could not imagine that he would be powerful than the founding masters, the Xuan Zhen Qi Zi. He could not tell anything odd about Shen Lian.

Shen Lian smiled, ”Is Xuan Zhen Temple powerful?”

After he said that, Liu Mengde almost began to doubt that Shen Lian was an outlaw who had the intention to be provocative.

Shen Lian saw his expression and he knew what he was thinking. He subsequently said, ”I've indeed never heard about Xuan Zhen Temple.”

Liu Mengde was surprised, ”With your cultivation experience, I am surprised you've never heard of Xuan Zhen Temple. Is it because you came from outside of the sea of blood? The sea of blood is terrifying, and it is not something that can be easily crossed by celestials. It will only make sense if that's the case.”

Shen Lian looked at him and said, ”You too know about the sea of blood, but your guess about my background was not correct. Tell me what exactly is going on at Xuan Zhen Temple.”

Liu Mengde could not hide, and the situation at Xuan Zhen Temple was not to be hidden.

From his description, Shen Lian thought that the Xuan Zhen Qi Zi must be the top Qi cultivators in this corner of the world. However, as cultivators did not tend to follow the rules, for such top cultivator of Qi to compromise, how powerful Da Xia could be?

If the Xuan Zhen Qi Zi were all at the level of Dixian, it seemed to Shen Lian that Da Xia's power was not one to be underestimated.

From Liu Mengde's cultivation level, he could guess that his master Mu Zhen was at least Huandan and above, and from there he could conjecture that the Xuan Zhen Qi Zi were all Dixian, or within the realm of Tianxian.
