When the two brothers felt disappointed and confused during their journey to the sea, they stood at the crossroads of life, thinking about the future direction. To be fair, they should have walked into Qingli Palace to fight for the dignity of their master, the whole world, and seek an answer for the Xuanmen morality that the two brothers had always believed in and upheld.

However, they felt exhausted both mentally and physically and could not muster enough courage. In their eyes, no matter how high the Taoism is, if it does not care about the life and death of the people, what is the difference between it and the so-called demonic way? They would rather break the boundaries between good and evil and seek a true way, even if this way exists in chaos. They decided to leave Qingli Palace to find the truth in their hearts.

So, the two brothers turned around resolutely, and with a firm belief, began to explore the world to find the true Taoism in their hearts. They want to know what Xuanmen is like in this world, whether it still retains the roots of the human race, whether it still adheres to Xuanmen moral principles, and whether any sect is worthy of the title of Xuanmen.

However, they were too extreme and too young at the time. They only considered many things with enthusiasm and did not think about problems comprehensively. They had heard some negative news about Qingli Palace, but they had not thought about the authenticity of the news, nor whether the source of the news was reliable. They listened to one side of the story, but ignored that there are right and wrong ways in the world, and that it is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong.

They began to doubt Qingli Palace, its disregard for the people, and its violation of morality. But they never thought about whether Qingli Palace was really what they thought, whether it really didn't care about the life and death of the people, and whether it really didn't uphold morality. They never thought that there might be difficulties behind Qingli Palace that they didn't know about.

They began to go south and southwest, looking for the ideal country in their hearts. They walked through the South China Sea, climbed up to Cangyun, passed through Boyang Valley, came to West Kunlun Yaochi, and even went as far as Mount Sumeru. They went through a lot of hardships along the way, just to find the Tao in their hearts, just to find the real Taoism.

However, their journey is not over, they continue to search and move forward. They firmly believe that as long as they persevere, one day they will find the ideal country in their hearts and they will find the true Taoism in their hearts. Because they know that only by finding the true Taoism can they find the direction of life and find their own way.

In this way, the two brothers embarked on the journey to the South China Sea with full expectation and awe. They visited many local sects, including Cangyun Sect, Jiufang Water Pavilion, etc., and spent a lot of time. After getting to know these sects in depth, they found that these sects headed by Cangyun Sect were indeed worthy of the title of Xuanmen. Therefore, they had the idea of ​​​​apprenticing to a teacher, and their first choice was the famous Cangyun Sect.

However, Cangyun Sect's criteria for accepting disciples are quite unique. Anyone who intends to become a disciple needs to drop his essence and blood on a blue dragon stone in front of the Baiyun Hall of Jiuxian Temple. If the Canglong Stone senses something and the essence and blood are instantly absorbed, then no matter what the apprentice's qualifications are, as long as he has a good mind, he can become a disciple of the Cangyun Sect and receive the sect's generous teachings. But if the Canglong Stone rejects essence and blood, then even if the apprentice has a shocking foundation, he will be turned away. Even though he is the son of a human prince, the Cangyun Sect still strictly abides by the rules and does not show any favoritism.

The two brothers came to Cangyun Sect and dripped blood essence on the Canglong Stone. However, to their disappointment, the stone turned into two white mists. The master in charge of recruiting apprentices saw that the two of them had outstanding qualifications, but the rules could not be broken, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

Despite this, Bai Ganyi, who was not yet the emperor at the time, decided to give them a chance out of love for talents. He asked the two brothers to wait for a while, and wrote a letter in person for them to take with them to Shangjianyinmen to apprentice. Bai Qianyi believes that as long as they practice hard, they will one day be recognized by the sect and become true Xuanmen disciples. And these two brothers also know that only by going through hardships can they wash away their brilliance and embark on the road to immortality. With dreams in mind, they embarked on a new journey.

The two brothers learned that Jianyinmen was in Northern Xinjiang, and they decided to go there without hesitation. So they bid farewell to Boyang Valley, traveled along the distant road, passed through countless dangers, and finally arrived in Northern Xinjiang a few months later.

However, the situation in northern Xinjiang is not stable, and Jianyinmen is engaged in a fierce battle with Wanmoyuan. The Snow Mountain on the Netherworld Blood Sea is the only place the two brothers must pass on their way to the Jianyin Sect. At this time, the forces of good and evil gathered here, and the Snow Mountain became their temporary stronghold. Although no large-scale fighting broke out between the two sides, friction between them was inevitable.

On this day, the two brothers passed by this place and came into contact with the forces on both sides. If they had met the disciples of the Jianyin Sect first, the subsequent story might have been different. However, as fate would have it, they were the first to meet the Demon Sect disciple of Wan Mo Yuan, Gongli Gong Jiuhua, also known as the Ninth Generation Demon Boy.

Gong Jiuhua is the direct disciple of the ancestor of the Demon Mountain of Ten Thousand Demons Abyss, and both of them deeply admire his politeness and magnanimity. Although the strength of the two brothers was not impressive in their eyes, Gong Jiuhua did not despise them because of this. Instead, he gave them a token and told them that if they were blocked, they could use this token to travel unimpeded.

The two were deeply grateful. After accepting the token, they bid farewell to Gong Jiuhua and continued their journey. They had a smooth journey and finally came to the sphere of influence of the Righteous Path headed by Jian Yinmen. Here, they met the disciples of Lingyan Pavilion in Daxue Mountain and explained their purpose and situation in detail. Under the guidance of the other party, they once again embarked on the journey to Jianyinmen.

Considering the local war situation, the two believed that it was not appropriate to become a disciple at this time. They decided to go directly through this land of disputes to the sect of Jianyinmen. If you can successfully become a disciple, you will have a good reputation when you come here again. Moreover, their cultivation level is still low, and staying here is just a burden. It is more practical to go directly to Jianyinmen. Therefore, the two brothers continued their spiritual path with firm faith.

In this way, the two Zhu brothers came to the legendary Jianyinmen with full expectations. They took out Bai Ganyi's letter and explained the purpose of their trip in detail. When the disciples on duty saw this, they welcomed them to the mountain gate. In the main hall, the two brothers were full of expectations, thinking that this apprenticeship would finally come true. However, they did not expect that the Jianyin Sect's standards for accepting disciples were equally strict. Even with Bai Ganyi's recommendation, they had to find their destiny sword on Jianya.

Jianyinmen focuses on the practice of swordsmanship, and disciples of all generations have found their lifelong swords on the sword cliff. This sword is connected with their essence and blood and becomes their natal magic weapon. This is also the key to the Jianyin Sect’s recruitment of disciples. The Zhu brothers were no exception. They followed the rules of the Jianyin Sect and embarked on a journey to find the natal sword.

In the next three days, the two brothers found their swords on the sword cliff one after another. These swords may seem ordinary, but they contain spirituality. The magic weapon changed hands, and the two brothers finally became qualified to enter. Next, they only need to put three drops of essence and blood on each of the divine weapons to make them recognize their master, and then they can officially become disciples of the Jianyin Sect. From then on, they can step into the Great Emperor Sect and receive the teachings of the sword.

However, at this critical moment, something unexpected happened. The second eldest brother Zhu Chunhua first asked his eldest brother Zhu Chunguang to shed his blood to identify his master, but unexpectedly found that his eldest brother actually carried the demon token of the ancestor of the Magic Mountain. When Zhu Chunguang dripped blood to identify his master, three drops of his blood essence were actually sucked by the token. The magic light suddenly flourished, and the billowing black smoke enveloped Zhu Chunguang's body.
