(First release, asking for monthly passes and subscriptions) Misty Valley.
A place Pei Jinye had never even heard of.
What surprised him was
that the other party sought him out by reputation.
Pei Jinye had followed the other party all the way here,
and discovered, to his astonishment,
that he couldn’t “remember” the route they took.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t remember.
There was a Heavenly Machine concealing it.
Concealed in an unprecedented way…
This aroused a great curiosity in Pei Jinye about the existence of Misty Valley.
…
Like a Fairyland Sanctuary.
The white fog was dense.
On the road, he heard two people discussing the Misty Sect.
“The Misty Valley in the distance is concealed by the Heavenly Machine and has a history of thousands of years.”
The bamboo raft flowed along the stream.
Pei Jinye stood on the bamboo raft, gazing into the distance.
Nine shocking peaks shrouded in clouds, straddling a mighty river, their majesty fully displayed.
Suddenly,
Pei Jinye felt a powerful force emanating from afar.
The young man beside him said with a gentle smile, “Fellow Daoist Pei, no need to worry, it’s the power emitted by our sect’s array, it won’t harm us.”
It was Shang Wuji.
The man who had appeared before Pei Jinye, making a request.
“Your sect’s techniques seem quite different from those of the outside world?” Pei Jinye asked pensively, probing.
Shang Wuji seemed not to notice the implicit meaning of the question, still maintaining that gentle smile as he replied, “Indeed, they are different.”
Meeting Pei Jinye’s gaze, Shang Wuji smiled, “The techniques inherently include both Innate and Post-heaven. The common folk outside practice the Post-heaven methods, while we in Misty Valley cultivate the Innate Techniques.”
“What are Innate and Post-heaven?” Pei Jinye inquired.
But this time, Shang Wuji shook his head, saying nothing.
Pei Jinye’s brows twitched.
Under normal circumstances, he would have already made a move.
But at this moment, Misty Valley gave him a feeling of mystery, so he temporarily suppressed it.
It was then that the silent young man beside him suddenly spoke, “Fellow Daoist Pei’s techniques don’t seem to come from the Heavenly Technique Sect?”
Pei Jinye looked at him, offering a faint smile, “No.”
You don’t say, I won’t say.
Seeing Pei Jinye’s silence, the young man suspiciously glanced at Shang Wuji, who subtly shook his head.
As they approached the mountains, the view became even more majestic and imposing.
It was clearly May, but the mountain they now saw was covered in snow as if the end was not in sight.
Under the sunlight,
the rushing rivers beneath the mountains shimmered in gold, appearing like countless streams of fire.
“We’ve arrived.”
Misty Valley’s celestial atmosphere was somewhat different from what he had imagined.
Within the mountain gate, one could see both the elderly and children.
Perhaps this was what an idyllic paradise looked like.
Pei Jinye couldn’t help but think of the “Idyllic Paradise” of the Old Gods Association.
While he was lost in thought,
Pei Jinye had already arrived in Misty Valley with Shang Wuji.
Misty Valley consisted of nine peaks.
Mysterious powers within each peak blocked Pei Jinye’s God Sense Detection,
fueling his intense interest in Misty Valley.
He had thought his knowledge of the world was well-established.
But now it seemed
that there were secrets in this world that he was unaware of.
These secrets were unknown even to prestigious sects like Liyue Sword Sect and Heavenly Technique Sect.
Over the years, he had explored many hidden aspects of various sects, none which mentioned the Misty Sect… But then Pei Jinye suddenly remembered what the Monarch of Wanda Nation had said.
Their Imperial Family had an ancestor who loved traveling the world,
who had mentioned “seeing immortals at sea, as if in an idyllic paradise”…
Misty Valley was probably a hidden sect just like that.
However, people from Wanda Nation had never seen such a sight, thinking it was merely a tale from a servant who had accompanied the old ancestor.
Without Misty Valley’s people seeking him out, Pei Jinye wouldn’t have believed
that there were other strong beings in this world besides himself!
…
“Greetings, Fellow Daoist Pei.”
“Greetings…”
Cranes soared and circled among the nine peaks.
Many disciples in plain robes of Misty Valley, upon being introduced, bowed to Pei Jinye, who, without any pretense, reciprocated.
Shang Wuji said with a gentle smile, “Today we celebrate the birthday of our Valley Master. We’ve invited only ten outsiders. The Valley Master said everyone should feel at ease. Our master is of very good nature… This way please, Fellow Daoist Pei.”
Alongside Shang Wuji, he entered the hall.
Misty Valley’s disciples bustled about, preparing the meal.
Pei Jinye observed carefully… Most of the ingredients were spiritual objects, including many he had previously directed others to collect, but many others were new to him.
Several guests were already seated in the hall.
Upon seeing Pei Jinye emerge with the disciples of Misty Valley, someone rose and said, “I am Cang Yunfei, Castle Master of Wuxing Castle.”
Pei Jinye bowed his fist, “A mere loose cultivator, Pei Jinye.”
Loose cultivator?
The others exchanged glances.
Who among those invited here wasn’t a powerful expert from a renowned sect?
A loose cultivator suddenly appearing?
What’s your status?
At that moment, Shang Wuji introduced from the side, “Fellow Daoist Pei is far too modest. Under his leadership, Wanda Nation has now become the most powerful country in the entire Western Continent.”
“Wanda Nation?”
Someone exclaimed from the side.
“Is that the Wanda Nation that has swept through the countries in these past two years?” The person looked towards Pei Jinye and quickly said, “So it’s Pei Dao you, my apologies, my apologies.”
But someone coldly snorted,
“Worldly conflicts are the way of heaven; since you have chosen cultivation, why bother with these worldly disputes?”
The atmosphere suddenly changed.
Pei Jinye followed the voice.
A middle-aged man not very tall… he was only about up to Pei Jinye’s chest, with bald eyebrows and a long sword at his waist.
Facing Pei Jinye’s gaze, the middle-aged man was unafraid and coldly said, “I am General Divinity.”
“Buzz–”
The void trembled.
The long sword in the hands of the self-proclaimed General Divinity instantly unsheathed.
“Shing shing shing shing–”
Sword light exploded.
General Divinity staggered back, and if it were not for others restraining him, the wall behind him would not have held.
In an instant.
Dead silence.
When everyone looked towards Pei Jinye again, there was a hint of astonishment in their eyes, but more so, there was wariness.
To strike without a word?
This Pei Dao you is truly domineering, not giving any face…
Shang Wuji also didn’t anticipate it, taken completely by surprise.
Just that instant.
The ferocity he sensed from this Pei Dao you caused his breath to hitch.
“Ah! I will kill you!”
General Divinity roared.
Wanting to rush forward.
At this moment, Shang Wuji came back to his senses and quickly stepped between the two.
“Pei Dao you, General Divinity, let’s not damage the harmony, today is a great day for our Valley Master, even if there are grievances, please give Misty Valley some face.”
General Divinity was already stopped by Cang Yunfei and others; everyone looked at Pei Jinye waiting for his response.
With just that move.
Pei Jinye’s strength was undoubtedly strong!
Pei Jinye cupped his hands towards Shang Wuji: “I’ve lost my composure.”
He didn’t even glance at General Divinity.
As if he were just an ant by the roadside, ready to be killed at any moment.
This scene made General Divinity feel insulted once again, roaring as he tried to charge forward.
Pei Jinye had already turned his back to him, calmly said, “Today I will give Misty Valley this face, but I hope someone remembers, I, Pei Mou, act with a clear conscience, and it’s not for any random Tom, Dick, or Harry to point fingers.”
Shang Wuji cupped his hands towards Pei Jinye in gratitude.
No trouble, nothing could be better.
He also felt somewhat helpless about General Divinity… after all, the man was not a servant in his domain, coming up and criticizing, anyone would get angry.
This person really doesn’t understand social niceties, who invited this guy?
He should be punished!
Cang Yunfei and others consoled General Divinity who finally suppressed his temper and coldly said, “Had it not been for his sudden attack, I wouldn’t have been so embarrassed… Hmph, if it really came to a fight, it’s still unknown who would fall!”
Pei Jinye had already left with Shang Wuji.
Shang Wuji was truly afraid that they would start fighting again, so he found an excuse to invite Pei Jinye to the adjacent garden.
“These flowers are divided into edible and non-edible…”
“The energy they contain is substantial, are the conditions for growing these flowers also very complex?” Pei Jinye inquired.
This earnest request for knowledge would confuse anyone.
It was as if the man who had just made a move wasn’t him at all.
Shang Wuji was momentarily shaken, then quickly said, “It’s not that complex, only a Nurturing Origin Array is needed.”
“Nurturing Origin Array?” Pei Jinye mused.
Upon mentioning his own Misty Valley, Shang Wuji’s face regained much confidence.
“This Nurturing Origin Array can gather the spiritual energy from heaven and earth, continuously nurturing these flowers and herbs…”
“You say that, but it is similar to an array I know of, yet there are differences…” Pei Jinye slowly said.
Shang Wuji suddenly became interested, beginning to discuss with Pei Jinye.
Especially after hearing that Pei Jinye also knew about formations, he was even more astonished.
Skilled in techniques… skilled in formations…
Could he be a disciple of our Misty Valley who’s been away?
“Spirit Gathering Array? Dao you, would you like to try it?”
Just then, a voice came from the side.
Pei Jinye and Shang Wuji both looked over.
The person was dressed in a wide robe, adorned with flying cranes, with a picturesque appearance and a voice like a bell, seemingly exuding a natural charm.
“I’ve seen Uncle Master Qi,” Shang Wuji hurriedly greeted.
The appearance of the visitor was almost no different from Shang Wuji, but he was already an Elder…
According to Shang Wuji, this person mastered the art of preserving youth.
“I’ve seen Elder Qi,” Pei Jinye also cupped his fists.
Elder Qi was not a person concerned with etiquette, waved his hand to indicate Pei Jinye need not be so formal, but he was very interested in the matter of the array.
It was like a martial maniac finally meeting an opponent, with no malice, simply eager to exchange knowledge.
“Pei Dao you, would you like to try it?”
Pei Jinye nodded.
In front of the two, he executed the Spirit Gathering Array.
This formation was obtained by devouring another’s memories.
He also often used it.
If only the range of use wasn’t so small, Pei Jinye would wrap himself in a Spirit Gathering Array every day.
He used it to plant various flowers and herbs.
“Quite interesting, quite interesting.”
Elder Qi clapped and laughed, suddenly intrigued, sometimes bursting into crazy laughter, sometimes frowning and shaking his head…
Shang Wuji looked at Pei Jinye and apologized, “Pei Dao you, don’t take offense, my uncle master is often like this…”
Just then.

Elder Qi suddenly spoke, “What if, I mean what if, I add these two strokes to the array, Dao you, what do you think?”
Pei Jinye and Shang Wuji both looked over.
The latter also understood arrays but couldn’t grasp the “adding two strokes” mentioned by the elder.
But Pei Jinye, upon seeing the elder’s inspired touch, his eyes lit up.
“The effect would at least double… Then if I add this one stroke, how would you respond then?”
