"I'll keep!"
"Keep again!"
"I'll keep again!"
As Fang Zhengzhi's helpless and hopeless voice rang out, the worlds in the Great Formation of Nine Tribulations were finally kept into the black metal box.
Fang Zhengzhi felt that everything happened too quickly, and he was not prepared for it.
Of course, after the Great Formation of Nine Tribulations was broken, the Ninth Heaven appeared in front of him too quickly, so quickly that he could not help but widen his eyes.
Drizzling dew fell from the sky, hitting the ground that was paved with white stones bit by bit. On the ground, there were nine white pillars that rose into the sky.
And the most important thing was …
In the middle of the nine pillars, there was a platform that looked like an altar. A row of stone steps extended from the platform to his feet.
"Is this the real Ninth Heaven?" Fang Zhengzhi raised his head and felt the refreshing drizzle on his face. He felt as though the clouds had parted and he could see the blue sky.
On the other hand, Chi Guyan did not speak. Instead, she stared intently at the center of the altar, her bright eyes shining with a dazzling radiance.
"There's more treasure?" As Fang Zhengzhi retracted his gaze, his eyes were naturally attracted by a ball of light that was emitted from the altar.
Instinctively, he walked up the stone steps.
Chi Guyan had no intention of stopping him. Not only did she not stop him, she even followed behind Fang Zhengzhi to the altar.
Very quickly, Fang Zhengzhi saw clearly where the ball of light was emitted from.
It was a circular stone platform, and there was an intricate carving on it. It looked like a lady in a long dress.
However, it was obvious that Fang Zhengzhi's gaze did not stop on the carving on the stone platform. He was looking at a strange "gem" placed in the middle of the stone platform.
It was reasonable to use the word "strange" to describe it.
This was because the shape of this gem did not look like an ordinary gem. It was neither round nor square. It looked like a water droplet.
Furthermore, it was a water droplet floating in the air.
However, it could be seen that this water droplet was indeed a "gem". That was because the entire water droplet was flowing with a faint golden light. There seemed to be something flowing in it. It looked like a painting, but it was very blurry. Fang Zhengzhi could not see what was drawn inside.
That would make things much easier …
If he took it back and studied it slowly, he might be able to benefit the people.
That was what Fang Zhengzhi thought. In fact, he was prepared to do so. However, he felt that he had to be more careful before doing so.
Stories …
He had seen quite a few of them.
Generally speaking, there would be powerful fierce beasts guarding the surroundings of treasures. However, in the current situation, it was unlikely that there would be fierce beasts.
In that case, logically speaking, there should be traps.
Therefore, he felt that he should discuss it with Chi Guyan before taking action. After all, Chi Guyan had always been more knowledgeable than him.
Moreover, at the very least, everyone who saw it had a share.
"Do you want it?" Fang Zhengzhi asked.
"You want it?" Chi Guyan asked back.
"…" Fang Zhengzhi's mouth twitched as he looked at Chi Guyan's questioning expression and her beautiful face. An image popped up in his mind.
On a big bed.
The man asked, Do you want it?
The woman asked, Do you want it?
Shaking his head, Fang Zhengzhi quickly erased this unhealthy thought from his mind. He put on a serious expression and said, "I think this gem should be our reward for reaching the Ninth Heaven. What do you think?"
"Perhaps." Chi Guyan did not nod or shake her head. Of course, she had no intention of taking action. She just stood quietly beside Fang Zhengzhi.
"Then I'll hold onto it first? Once we get out of the Divine Rain Pond, I'll think of a way to split it in half. Shall we split it in half? "Fang Zhengzhi asked.
"No need, you can hold onto it." Chi Guyan evidently had no intention of fighting with Fang Zhengzhi.
"I understand the principle of everyone who saw it should have a share. Since I said I'll split it in half, then I'll split it in half!" Fang Zhengzhi immediately expressed his stance when he heard Chi Guyan's words.
Humans could be shameless, but that was only to their enemies. Fang Zhengzhi did not like to take advantage of such treasures for his friends.
"There's not much time left. The Divine Rain Pond is about to close. I have a few questions that I'd like to ask you before we leave the Divine Rain Pond!" Chi Guyan had no intention of continuing to argue with Fang Zhengzhi. She raised her head slightly, as though she was thinking about something.
"Oh? Ask away! "Fang Zhengzhi said generously.
"Do you think you've won this bet, or do you think I've won?" Chi Guyan retracted her gaze and looked at Fang Zhengzhi with a serious expression.
"Normally … My name should be announced first, right?" Fang Zhengzhi did not expect Chi Guyan to ask this question.
Of course, even though he was being generous, there were still some things that needed to be followed. The person who announced his name first would naturally be considered to be the first to go. There was a scientific basis for this logic.
"Do you really want to leave the Heaven Dao Pavilion?" Chi Guyan seemed to have expected Fang Zhengzhi to say this. She did not continue to argue with Fang Zhengzhi on this question. Instead, she changed the topic and asked again.
"Of course!" Fang Zhengzhi did not know what Chi Guyan wanted to ask, but he was very clear about this question. He did not hesitate at all.
"Where do you want to go after leaving the Heaven Dao Pavilion?" Chi Guyan asked again.
"The Holy Region is so huge. I want to travel around before I make my final decision," said Fang Zhengzhi.
"That's right, the Holy Region is really huge. Wan Lei of Yin Yang Hall died because of us, and the Sect Leader of Nine Pinnacles Mountain, Tian Xing, is also related to us. Fu Xi Valley doesn't have a deep grudge against us, but Gu Yuan is an elder of Fu Xi Valley. I'm afraid that news about you has already spread far and wide. As for Ling Yun Tower …" Chi Guyan stopped at the end of her sentence.
"I didn't expect to offend all five sects of the Holy Region the moment I arrived in the Holy Region. I should have kept a low profile. Now, there's really nowhere for me to go, haha …" Fang Zhengzhi laughed. Just like what Chi Guyan had said, he could not go to any of these places.
"Shameless thief, we've known each other for ten years, right?" Chi Guyan's tone changed slightly.
"Yes, it's been ten years." Fang Zhengzhi nodded. It had indeed been ten years since he first met Chi Guyan and kicked her into the river.
"Actually, if you had more time, even if it was just a year, I wouldn't have stopped you from leaving the Heaven Dao Pavilion. I also wouldn't have used this method to compete with you in the Nine Heavens." Chi Guyan continued.
"I know." Fang Zhengzhi nodded again.
Just like what Chi Guyan had said, they had known each other for ten years. Chi Guyan understood Fang Zhengzhi and Fang Zhengzhi understood Chi Guyan very well. If not for the fact that she had no other choice, how would she have given up her pride?
She had planned this before entering the Divine Rain Pond. Given Chi Guyan's pride, she would never have done such a thing! Furthermore, she had purposely lured Fang Zhengzhi away in the Eighth Heaven and even planned to launch a sneak attack on him. The prideful Chi Guyan would never have done such a thing!
But all of this …
Chi Guyan had done it!
There could only be one reason. Chi Guyan had already made up her mind. Even if she had to lose her pride, she had to win this bet.
"You only have less than three months left. Once you leave the Heaven Dao Pavilion, you might be hunted down. Have you really made up your mind?" Chi Guyan asked again after a moment of silence.
"Yes, I've made up my mind!" Fang Zhengzhi said with certainty.
"Just because of a man's pride? If that's the case, I'm willing to admit defeat and be your bed-warming servant. Then, I'll fulfill my responsibilities as a servant. You just have to focus on your cultivation in the Heaven Dao Pavilion. I'll go out as your servant to help you find the resources you need for your cultivation. How about this … "
"I'm not doing this because of my pride. In the face of life and pride, I've always had a choice. Just like how when I can't win a fight, I'll definitely run. But, this time is different!"
"What's different?"
"You. Because you're the one risking your life. I can be shameless to others, but I won't be so shameless to watch you risk your life for me, while I hide in the Heaven Dao Pavilion, not daring to go out!"
"…" Chi Guyan suddenly fell silent. She didn't say anything else. She just looked at Fang Zhengzhi quietly. Her bright eyes seemed to be flowing with a faint radiance.
"Don't worry, I've gained a lot from this trip to the Heaven Dao Pavilion. I've memorized the locations of some of the important treasures in the Holy Region. Furthermore, the enlightenment I gained from the Nine Heavens also helped me find a way to increase my strength. I might still have a chance of breaking through in three months' time!" Fang Zhengzhi said again.
"I understand now, shameless thief … Actually, you've won. You've broken the Nine Tribulations Formation, which means that you've broken the Ninth Heaven. You can leave now. Leave the rest to me!" Chi Guyan finally nodded her head slowly when she heard this.
"The rest?" Fang Zhengzhi looked confused.
"Do you think it's so easy to get the nine Heaven Dao Sage Tablets and this' Spiritual Jade '? After you leave the Divine Rain Pond, I'll report to my master immediately. I'll say that you threatened me with the bet so that I couldn't attack you. Then, you took the nine Heaven Dao Sage Tablets when I wasn't paying attention. I think … Since you won't be returning to the Heaven Dao Pavilion, it shouldn't be a problem even if you're hunted down by the Heaven Dao Pavilion, right? "
At the end of her sentence, Chi Guyan was no longer as worried as before. She blinked her bright eyes at Fang Zhengzhi and smiled slyly.
