"Profound Talisman Demon Lord! Profound Talisman Sacred Ancestor!" Wang Changsheng's expression became solemn.
Ye Haitang ascended to the Demon Realm, and the Profound Talisman Sacred Ancestor was a legend there. Most importantly, the Profound Talisman Sacred Ancestor shared the exact same name as Wang Changsheng—same given name and surname. The difference was that one was a demon, and the other was human. Wang Changsheng had also sent his clansmen to inquire about the Profound Talisman Sacred Ancestor's whereabouts, but they had never received any information.
"Lead the way!" Wang Changsheng instructed.
Liu Huang acknowledged and led the way. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan followed.
Not long after, they arrived at the entrance of a secluded small courtyard with green tiles.
"The Palace Master is inside. Senior Wang, please enter." Liu Huang pushed open the courtyard gate and gestured for them to enter. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan walked in, and Liu Huang closed the gate behind them.
The courtyard was not large, featuring a two-story red pavilion and a red stone pavilion. A tall, black-robed young man and a graceful young woman in a red dress were seated in the stone pavilion. The black-robed young man was a Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and the young woman in red was at the late-stage Golden Immortal realm.
"I am Wang Changsheng, and this is my wife, Mu Wanwan. I have long heard of Fellow Daoist Wang's great name; it's good to finally meet you in person," the black-robed young man said, cupping his fists, his tone clear and hearty. This Wang Changsheng, the Profound Talisman Demon Lord, was widely known as the Profound Talisman Sacred Ancestor among demon cultivators in the Demon Realm.
Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan introduced themselves and took their seats.
"When I was in the lower realm, I heard about your deeds, Fellow Daoist Wang. After ascending to the Immortal Realm, I also sent people to inquire about you, but there was never any news," Wang Changsheng said, curious.
"That's not surprising. We operate in cities under the jurisdiction of Qilin Immortal City. It's unlikely you would have known about my existence, Fellow Daoist Wang. I also never expected that we share the same name and surname and both originate from the East Profound Continent Cluster," the Profound Talisman Demon Lord explained. The cultivation world is vast, and many cultivators share the same name. However, it is rare for two cultivators with the same name and surname to ascend to the Immortal Realm together and both cultivate to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level.
"Qilin Immortal City!" Wang Changsheng realized. The Demon Race is a subordinate race of the Monster Race. The Profound Talisman Demon Lord must have ascended to the Demon Race's territory and operated in cities under the Monster Race's jurisdiction. No wonder the clansmen from the Dark Hall hadn't found any news of the Profound Talisman Sacred Ancestor. Qilin Immortal City is one of the seven Immortal Cities controlled by Immortals, with a Dao Ancestor presiding over it. It is very far from Kunlun Immortal City. Moreover, with the Profound Talisman Sacred Ancestor having changed his title, it would have been even harder to inquire about him.
"Senior Wang, are you and Madam Wang here to attend Senior Nangong's celebration?" Wang Ruyan asked casually.
"Not exactly. We have other matters to attend to. We were passing through this area, heard about your deeds, Fellow Daoist Wang, and sent someone to keep an eye out for news of you," the Profound Talisman Demon Lord explained. His tone shifted as he continued, "Fellow Daoist Wang controls the Law of Soul. Madam Wang wouldn't happen to control the Law of Reincarnation, would she?"
"Fellow Daoist Wang, you jest. The Law of Reincarnation is not that easy to grasp," Wang Changsheng said with a faint smile. He wasn't sure of the Profound Talisman Demon Lord's intentions.
"It's very difficult for others, but for Madam Wang, it should be a little easier," the Profound Talisman Demon Lord said with a smile.
"When we were in the lower realm, we heard that Senior Wang was proficient in talisman crafting, capable of inscribing talismans onto cultivators. I am quite interested in this. Could Senior Wang offer some guidance?" Wang Ruyan said politely.
The Profound Talisman Demon Lord nodded, took out a black jade slip, and handed it to Wang Ruyan, saying, "These are my insights on talisman crafting. I hope they can be of help to Madam Wang." Wang Ruyan was slightly taken aback. She hadn't expected the Profound Talisman Demon Lord to be so accommodating; it was quite surprising!
"These are some insights from my study of the Law of Soul. If you don't mind, Fellow Daoist Wang, please accept them," Wang Changsheng said, taking out a blue jade slip and handing it to the Profound Talisman Demon Lord.
The Profound Talisman Demon Lord thanked him and accepted the blue jade slip.
Wang Changsheng inquired about Qilin Immortal City, and the Profound Talisman Demon Lord answered truthfully. After chatting for over half an hour, a shrill whistling sound came from Wang Changsheng. He took out a blue-glowing formation plate, cast a spell, and frowned.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, I have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave now. Let's meet again another day," Wang Changsheng said, rising to depart.
"Alright, let's meet again another day," the Profound Talisman Demon Lord said, rising to see them off and watching Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan depart.
"It's a good thing my husband only shares a name with Immortal Lord Taihao and doesn't look like him," Mu Wanwan said with a smile.
"The Immortal Realm is so vast; it's not unusual for cultivators to share the same name. If they looked identical, they would be the same person. Let's not talk about him anymore. I hope we can find Bing'er this time! I wonder where she ascended," the Profound Talisman Demon Lord said, frowning.
"Her soul lamp hasn't extinguished yet, so she must still be alive. The Immortal Realm is vast, but as long as we spend more time, we will surely find her," Mu Wanwan said.
"I hope so! And Yingying, that girl is very willful; I owe her," the Profound Talisman Demon Lord sighed.
"One day, she will understand your efforts, my husband. After all, it's not that you didn't acknowledge her; you simply didn't know she existed. She misunderstood, thinking you abandoned your wife and daughter," Mu Wanwan comforted him. In the lower realm, the Profound Talisman Demon Lord had a confidante, and Wang Yingying was their daughter. However, the Profound Talisman Demon Lord was completely unaware of Wang Yingying's existence, leading Wang Yingying to mistakenly believe he had abandoned his wife and daughter.
The Profound Talisman Demon Lord let out a long sigh and tightly squeezed Mu Wanwan's hand, saying, "You've worked hard all these years."
Liu Huang walked in, bowed, and said, "Palace Master, we've made contact with people from the Ten Directions Pavilion. One of their deacons is in Sky Phoenix City and invites you to come over for a discussion." He took out a black formation plate and handed it to the Profound Talisman Demon Lord.
The Profound Talisman Demon Lord glanced at it, nodded, and then left the small courtyard with Mu Wanwan.
Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan strolled along the street. Nangong Yunyao led the way, and soon they arrived at the entrance of a nine-story azure pavilion. The golden characters "Evergreen Tower" were inscribed on a plaque above the entrance, and two Golden Immortal cultivators stood guard.
Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan entered, followed Nangong Yunyao to the seventh floor, and met Nangong Changqing.
A handsome young man in a silver robe and a sweet-faced young woman in a purple dress were seated next to Nangong Changqing. Both were late-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortals.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, Madam Wang, let me introduce you. These are Fellow Daoist Jiang and Madam Jiang. They respectively control the Law of Destiny and the Law of Soul," Nangong Changqing began, introducing them.
"I am Jiang Yunhai. It's a pleasure to meet Fellow Daoist Wang and Madam Wang."
"I am Lu Qing. It's a pleasure to meet Fellow Daoist Wang and Madam Wang."
The silver-robed young man and the purple-dressed young woman introduced themselves.
"I am Wang Changsheng, and this is my wife, Wang Ruyan," Wang Changsheng said, cupping his fists.
"I heard that Fellow Daoist Wang and Madam Wang had arrived in Sky Phoenix City. These two fellow Daoists were very eager to meet you, so I contacted you. I hope I didn't disturb you, Fellow Daoist Wang!" Nangong Changqing said with a smile, picking up the teapot and pouring tea for Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan, without any pretense.
"Not at all. I was just chatting with a fellow Daoist," Wang Changsheng explained. His tone shifted as he continued, "I've long heard of Fellow Daoist Jiang and Madam Jiang's great names. I understand Fellow Daoist Jiang is also a diviner."
