Sima Quan's attack immediately latched onto the bodies of the two Daoists, but the two of them had no idea that they had fallen into a trap.
He immediately flipped through the two's memories, but he did not delve too deep, or else his mind would inevitably be affected. He still had use for the two of them, but if the powerful people behind them saw through him, it would not be beneficial for him to come down and take action.
After looking through them, he had a general idea of the situation in the Jun Shu Realm.
This place was similar to the Mountain and Sea Realm, with no end in sight. There were more than a hundred powers in this realm, with twelve of them being the largest. The Great Might Heavenly Palace was only one of the larger powers.
These seven powers jointly controlled dozens of Lower Realms, and the number of Lower Realms they controlled determined the power of each power.
As for why the Realm Gate was only guarded by Yuanying cultivators, that was because the people with profound cultivation bases had all gone to a severed realm where demons and devils roamed. They were also prepared to deal with any invading monsters from beyond the Heavens.
He looked into what a "severed realm" was, and understood that the people of the Jun Shu Realm were not natives of this place. After they arrived, because of the demons and devils, they used some sort of method to sever the space between the Realm Gate and the original demons and Daoist cultivators. However, the two sides belonged to the same realm, so it was impossible to completely cut off contact. Therefore, the almighty beings stood guard at the gate all year round.
Sima Quan's mind raced. If there was such a method, then it meant that there were almighty beings in this realm. So why was the spiritual opportunity here so weak?
The two of them could not find an answer in their memories, but based on the clues they had left behind, he could deduce that it was similar to the severed realm. The people here had used some sort of method to divide the spiritual opportunity in the realm into strong and weak, so that those at the top lived in prosperity, and those at the bottom lived in decline.
The benefits of such a method were obvious. Not only could one maximize the use of spiritual opportunity, but those who were ambitious would also have to constantly climb up the ladder. If possible, the Mountain and Sea Realm could do the same thing. However, the prerequisite was that they had to be able to do so. If they used ordinary methods to do such a thing, it would consume a lot of spiritual opportunity, and they would also have to find a way to maintain it. In fact, they would suffer even more losses, and the gains would outweigh the losses.
Whether it was the Boundary Severing Technique or the Spiritual Opportunity Division Technique, these two things were very good. At the very least, the Nine Regions were unable to do it. It was very likely that there really was a powerful existence, but it was also possible that, as the people of the Nine Regions had deduced, the people of this world had a powerful magical tool to rely on.
He thought that the latter was more likely, because with such a powerful being in charge, few forces would dare to invade, and there was no need for them to act as if they were facing a great enemy. However, if the enemy also had a powerful being of the same level, then it would be a different story. In short, everything remained to be seen.
He continued to flip through the pages and found that there was nothing useful in their minds.
After all, their cultivation bases weren't very high, and they weren't members of the upper echelons of the Great Might Heavenly Palace, nor were they direct bloodline successors. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been sent here to manage things.
Now that he had a good understanding of the situation, he retracted his thoughts and flew up into the void, preparing to use the Two-Realm Dial to inform the Mountain and Sea Realm of the situation.
Just Now that he was at the top of the Heavens, he suddenly realized that something was off. His heart was pounding, as if he were being watched by something. Reacting quickly, he put on the bronze mask and then descended to the ground. Almost in the same moment that he put on the mask, a beam of light swept over him.
In the middle of the void was a large crystalline mirror. It was not flat, but rather, perfectly round. Several dozen women sat cross-legged on top of it, all of them facing different directions.
In one of the seats, a horned woman suddenly let out a cry of surprise and looked down.
In the seat of honor was a white-robed woman who looked a bit older than she was. She walked over and asked, "Junior Sister Song, did you notice something?"
Junior Sister Song replied, "Junior Sister Song, I saw ripples on the mirror, as if something strange had happened. However, when I looked again, nothing happened."
The white-robed woman was very cautious. She walked over to her seat and looked over the mirror several times, but didn't see anything out of the ordinary. She refused to believe that her fellow sect member had made a mistake, so she knew that something was off. Frowning, she said, "Keep an eye on it, and don't be careless. If anything happens, call me immediately."
Junior Sister Song didn't dare to be careless. Her duties were very important, and were designed to guard against the vicious creatures from beyond the Heavens. If one of them really did enter, it would be a huge calamity. "I'll keep an eye on it," she said earnestly.
The white-robed woman still didn't feel at ease. After a moment of hesitation, she returned to her seat of honor, where a veiled woman appeared. She clasped hands respectfully and said, "Pavilion Elder Yun, Si Jingyinkong offers greetings."
Pavilion Elder Yun's figure was twice the size of an ordinary person. She looked down from above and asked, "What's the matter?"
The white-robed woman said, "Pavilion Elder Yun, Just Now, there was a strange movement on the Spirit Mirror. However, when I looked for it again, it disappeared. That's why I came to report."
Pavilion Elder Yun's expression instantly became very solemn. "Where did it appear?"
The white-robed woman said, "From the looks of it, it should be above the Great Might Heavenly Palace's domain."
Pavilion Elder Yun said, "The Spirit Mirror has never been wrong. Don't be careless and search diligently. It's fine even if you have to make a big move. I will personally explain to the Great Might Heavenly Palace."
The white-robed woman clasped hands and said, "This disciple understands."
Pavilion Elder Yun raised her palm and clasped hands again, covering that layer of fog again. She turned around and walked into a secret chamber.
There was a sage-like Daoren sitting here. Seeing her enter, he chuckled and said, "Pavilion Elder Yun, have you encountered some trouble?"
Pavilion Elder Yun glanced at him. "There's a strange movement in the Spirit Mirror."
Daoren's smile immediately vanished. His expression also became solemn. "A demon has infiltrated!"
Pavilion Elder Yun said, "That should be the case. The Spirit Mirror has never been wrong. However, he still managed to escape."
Daoren was even more surprised. He said, "The Spirit Mirror has never been found. The demon that has come this time is not ordinary. Pavilion Elder, are you going to invite all the sects here for a discussion?"
Pavilion Elder Yun said indifferently, "Of course. Doesn't City Lord Chen know the consequences of not getting rid of the demon that has entered the realm? What's more, with just the two of us, we won't be able to find the other sects' domains."
Daoren frowned and said, "Then are we going to postpone our discussion?"
Pavilion Elder Yun said, "City Lord Chen, you don't have to worry about anything. As long as that demon's spirituality doesn't disappear, there will always be opportunities that appear even if we don't deliberately look for it. Otherwise, there wouldn't be dozens of lower realms for me to command now."
Daoren shook his head and said, "Although there are many lower realms, if we don't take the initiative to plan, how many of them will fall into our hands? Pavilion Elder Yun should know that the expansion of the outer realms has always been the time when the authorities in our realm rearrange themselves. Don't you want to strengthen the Spirit Mirror Region?"
Pavilion Elder Yun, however, was not moved at all. She said with a cold expression, "In front of the demon, these are all secondary matters."
Daoren didn't try to persuade her anymore. He stood up and said, "If Pavilion Elder Yun changes your mind, you can come and find me anytime." He paused and said, "I will order people to thoroughly investigate the matter of that demon. Farewell."
Sima Quan landed, and when there was no longer anyone spying on him, he took off his mask and thought, "There are actually monitors in the sky, and the security is very tight. I'll have to find another way to communicate to the inner realm."
If it really didn't work, he still had another way. He would retreat to the Horn Flower Realm and then do this. There wouldn't be any obstacles, and with the bronze mask, he wouldn't have to worry about anyone noticing.
However, he didn't act immediately. Because of the restriction, going there might cause some accidents.
He took out the jade bottle with Yun Jiang's blood essence from his sleeve and prepared to try to find its whereabouts. Yun Jiang came dozens of years earlier than him. If she was still alive, then she should know more about this realm than him, so he could try to make contact with her first.
After a moment, he felt a weak sensation. His eyes flickered. Yun Jiang was indeed still alive. It was probably because of the various monitors that she couldn't communicate with the inner realm.
He was experienced, so he didn't go look for her immediately. Instead, he sent out a few avatars to different realms and circled around. Finally, he put on the bronze mask again to cover his tracks. This way, even if someone came to track him, they wouldn't be able to find him.
One month later, he arrived before a temple that stood on top of a waterfall. This place was very desolate, and from the two memories, it was also under the jurisdiction of the Great Might Heavenly Palace. The master of the palace was a Yuanying elder named Wang Weidao. He could sense that Yun Jiang was deep inside the temple, but he wasn't in a rush to meet her. After thinking for a bit, he turned into a gust of cold wind and flew toward the main palace.
Hall Master Wang Weidao was sitting cross-legged on the bed. However, his face was old and frail, and his complexion was not good. His body was also dim, as if he was suffering from a serious illness.
Zhan Moping and a dozen or so disciples were standing respectfully before the couch.
Wang Weidao said in a heavy voice, "Last time, Elder Feng and I fought against the demon from outer space, so we were poisoned. After so many years, it's time to give up this broken body. After I leave, my eldest disciple, Zou Cheng, can inherit my dao and become the Cliff Master of Bian Cliff."
This was something that had been decided a long time ago, and today was just a formality. No one was surprised and they all bowed in agreement.
After giving some instructions, he dismissed all the disciples and only left Zhan Moping behind. He said, "Moping, you are my relative, so I hope you won't blame me for not giving you the position of Cliff Master."
Zhan Moping said, "Eldest Senior Brother has the highest cultivation among us. Disciple knows his own limits and wouldn't dare to have such thoughts."
Wang Weidao sighed and said, "After Master left, I was worried you would be harmed by Hong Zhe. That person is narrow-minded and will take revenge for the smallest grievance. You offended him back then, and he has been targeting Master ever since."
Zhan Moping said shamefully, "It's all disciple's fault, Master."
Back then, when they came up from Jiaohua Boundary, Elder Hong wanted to capture Yun Jiang, but he suffered a great loss in the latter's hands. Afterward, Wang Weidao rushed over after hearing the news. Elder Hong wasn't able to do anything to Zhan Moping and the rest, but the enmity was formed. Although there were no movements in these years, with this person's personality, he would definitely come for revenge once Wang Weidao left.
Wang Weidao coughed twice and took out a talisman. He said, "I have already arranged it for you. This is the token to go to Pingshen Boundary. You and Wanying will go there together. Hong Zhe is the guardian elder, so he won't be able to chase you there. Although there are many demons in this boundary, the spirit opportunity is not inferior to my cave abode. If you can cultivate to the Yuanying realm there and come back, you won't have to be afraid of him."
