What Zhang Yanzhi said was exactly what the Zhi clan was worried about. He knew that with his identity, he would be feared by all the mighty figures, especially the Taiyi Golden Bead. Although they were both Primordial Cardinal Treasures, they would not see him as one of their kind. Instead, they would see him as an obstacle.
It was also for this reason that he had hidden in the Gu tribe for more than a hundred years. He had thought that he would stay hidden until his Qi activity was condensed. Then, he would be unafraid of anyone like the Taiyi Golden Bead. But now, it seemed that it was wishful thinking. It was likely that he could no longer hide.
He sighed and said, "Does the Daoist come to protect me?"
The so-called protection was just a nice way of saying it. In his opinion, even if the Daoist did not use him, he would not allow him to fall into the hands of the enemy. He would most likely imprison him.
He could not resist this. After all, he had not become a true Cardinal Treasure.
Zhang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand. I did not mean that."
Although taking the Primordial Cardinal Treasure into his own pocket in advance could ensure that others would not be able to touch it, he knew that this was not a good choice. Instead, it could bring endless troubles to his side.
If the Primordial Cardinal Treasure surrendered, it would be enough to stir up the situation in the world. It would certainly cause changes in the heavens.
The Taiyi Golden Bead had always been very sensitive to this. He was sure that even if there was only a little doubt, he would come to stop it at all costs.
This was because he knew very well that once Yuan Zun of the Human Dao obtained the Primordial Cardinal Treasure, there would be no need to fear him in the future. In that case, he would not be able to take the Zhou Huanyuan Jade and use it to achieve Dao.
Therefore, if they really took Zhi in, it would only cause the Human Dao to go against them in advance. There would be no room for negotiation.
Daoist Daoist Daoist might even spread the news and encourage the Extraterrestrial Demons, Primordial Demons, and even the Heartless Path to attack together.
Because Zhi had not truly achieved anything yet, he could not be a helper. Therefore, if such a situation really happened, the Human Dao that had Just Now Been Restored might collapse again.
Seeing him deny it, Lady Zhi could not help feeling puzzled and asked, "Then … could it be that you came here today just to say these words to me?"
Before Zhang Yan came to see him, he already had a lot of plans in mind, but he hadn't really made up his mind. He was going to see the temperament of this supreme treasure first before making any concrete plans.
Looking at him now, this could be said to be a person with a comfortable heart, completely different from Taiyi Jinzhu's seemingly modest but actually arrogant temperament. In his heart, he ruled out those violent methods.
He said, "Fellow Daoist should also know that in this battle, the stronger side wins. Therefore, the four of us have our own selfish motives. Although we don't want to forcefully confine Fellow Daoist, we also don't wish for Fellow Daoist to be invited by others and turn around to deal with us. “
Lady Zhi took a deep breath and asked carefully, "Then what does Daoist Venerable want?"
Zhang Yan said, "Just as I said, Fellow Daoist's method of hiding will be discovered sooner or later. Because of this, I am willing to give you a spell. Not to say that you can completely avoid karma, but it won't be difficult for you to hide from the almighties for a period of time."
Lady Zhi never thought that he would do this. He was in slight disbelief and asked, "Really?"
Zhang Yan pointed with his finger, and a spiritual light suddenly appeared, turning into a talisman. He said, "Fellow Daoist, please receive it."
Lady Zhi's mind changed, and he also understood Zhang Yan's intention for doing this. However, he did not dislike it, and instead, he owed the latter a favor because he really needed to conceal his identity now. After calming himself down, he raised his hands to receive it. Just Now, when he touched it, a spiritual light shone on his body, and he couldn't help but be shocked, but he quickly calmed down.
With Zhang Yan's supernatural power, if he wanted to do anything, he could do it openly, there was no need for him to beat around the bush.
After a few breaths, he felt his mood lighten up, as if the haze had disappeared, and he felt refreshed. He immediately knew that this method was superior, and it seemed that he would not have to worry about being discovered in the short term. Although he knew that Yuan Zun had his own purpose, he still felt grateful. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord Xuanyuan, for giving me the method."
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Although Fellow Daoist has obtained this method, you don't have to move to another place, or else it will only increase the number of variables."
Lady Zhi sighed and said, "I also know that if I go out, it will be very easy to expose my tracks. However, most of the people in the Gu tribe were personally taught by me, and I have always seen them as my juniors. I am afraid that if my identity is exposed, it will bring trouble to them."
Ever since he entered the human realm, he had been living in a mortal body, and his nature was not much different from the original Lady Zhi. It could be said that the two of them could be considered the same person. He was also very reluctant to leave the Gu tribe, but he was also afraid that he would drag the whole tribe down.
Zhang Yan looked at him and nodded, "Fellow Daoist, you have a kind heart, but you don't have to worry about this, the Gu tribe will be protected by my people, as long as I and the four Daoist friends are still here, there will be no danger. If Fellow Daoist leaves, as long as you leave a trace, others will still find the Gu tribe. Therefore, if Fellow Daoist stays here, you will be able to protect the people here."
Lady Zhi was stunned and frowned, but she had to admit that what Zhang Yan said made sense. He had been in the Gu tribe for a hundred years, and they were deeply involved. The traces left behind were indeed not that easy to erase. In fact, it did not matter whether he left or not, if that was the case, he did not need to leave anymore.
After thinking it through, he cupped his hands and said sincerely, "I have learned something."
Zhang Yan said, "It is difficult for us to predict the changes of the Heavenly Mystery, what I said is just advice, it is up to Fellow Daoist to decide how to proceed."
Just as Lady Zhi was about to say something, she suddenly felt the scenery outside, which had been stagnant, become lively again. She knew that the other party had left. Not only that, Zhang Chan, who had handed over the book, had disappeared without a trace. He sighed, then took a deep breath and pulled himself together.
At this moment, a servant came up and said, "His Excellency has planted many strange flowers and fruits in the garden, Mister Zhi, please go and have a look."
Lady Zhi cupped her hands and said, "Senior Servant, please lead the way."
After Zhang Yan's spirit returned, he saw that Lady Zhi did not leave, and knew that she had accepted his words, so he nodded.
This time, he mainly wanted to form a karmic relationship with this person. Once the karmic relationship was established, it would not be difficult to predict where this person went in the future.
However, he had already seen that in the next few decades, this person would not be able to achieve anything. Even if he was willing to stand on the side of humanity, he would not be able to fight against the Taiyi Golden Pearl. To deal with this person, he still had to think of another way.
Previously, he had said to Dan Yi and the others that if Taiyi made a move, then he would first think of a way to stall him and then wait for a turning point to appear. This was not empty talk, and he did have some confidence.
When he fought against the Connate Demons, he relied on his boundless magic power and the patriarch's secret method, and he had not established his own Dao at that time.
But now, it was different. After visualizing the Taixuan True Scripture, his Dao had something to rely on. If he fought with others, his magic power would flow according to it, and his combat ability would increase by a lot.
Moreover, he still had the body of the Demon Master of Power Path outside, so he did not have to enter the battlefield to fight, but he could also incite the Extraterrestrial Demons to attack. In short, he would not be completely powerless to fight back.
In the Mystic Kong Realm, Daoist Daoyi sat on the Dharma Tower, his eyes constantly scanning the land of Kun Shi Continent.
These days, he did not fall into a deep sleep, because he also knew that Zhou Huanyuan Jade had entered the world, and in a few decades, he would see the results. This was related to his great plan to achieve Dao, and he could not afford any mistakes, so he kept watching at all times. Even if it consumed his own essence, he refused to relax at all.
But Just Now, he suddenly felt a trace of change in the Heavenly Secrets. When he wanted to take a closer look, it quickly disappeared, but he felt a little annoyed in his heart for no reason.
He faintly felt that something was wrong, and he deduced that something bad must have happened here, but it was covered by the Heavenly Secrets.
Now in the world, there were very few people who could affect him and cause a certain degree of threat, but this must include the Primordial Treasures of this era.
He said coldly, "Jun Wuqi is useless, and I still can't find any clues."
He knew that he could not rely on this disciple. If he waited any longer, he was afraid that things would reach an irreversible point, so he had to take more initiative.
With this thought in mind, he came to the Great Mound in a flash. Golden palaces and white pagodas stood in great numbers, fragrant flowers paved the way, jewels and jewels covered the place, and devout believers were chanting ceaselessly. He glanced around, and in the end, he saw a white city built on the peak of a mountain. With an idea, he disappeared on the spot.
Lu Li and Bai Wei had gone to Bu Xu Tian to assume command in order to get Zhou Huanyuan Jade. However, the Great Mound was their base, and over the years, they had been fighting fiercely with the Extraterrestrial Demons. Therefore, in case of accidents, the two of them had their clones stay here.
Inside the Bao Ru Da Zheng House, Bai Wei and Lu Li were sitting on a lotus altar. They were giving a sermon and imparting scriptures. Their witty words triggered the mysteries of heaven, causing golden flowers to fall down, cranes to hover, animals to bow down, and bells to ring. The 8,000 followers were listening to them with reverence. All of them looked solemn.
Suddenly, Bai Wei sensed something. He stopped preaching and said, "That is all for today. You can all leave now."
The believers stood up, bowed, and slowly left the Great Mound in an orderly manner.
After everyone left, Bai Wei and Lu Li stood up, cupped their fists, and said, "Fellow Daoist Daoyi, what brings you here?"
Daoist Daoyi showed himself. With his hands clasped behind his back, he said, "Crossing two heavens has caused a great commotion, and it is quite troublesome. That is why I am here to see you."
Bai Wei made a gesture of invitation and said, "Fellow Daoist, please sit down and talk."
Daoist Daoyi sat on the platform and said, "Now that the Primordial Jade has entered the world, how confident are the two of you in obtaining it?"
Bai Wei said, "The location of the Primordial Jade can be said to be determined by the heavens. We can only do our best."
Lu Li said, "Our believers are searching everywhere for the fated ones. It will take at least several decades before the results of this item can be seen. Fellow Daoist Daoyi, it is a bit too early to ask now."
Daoist Daoyi snorted and said, "If I don't come, I am afraid the two of you will inevitably be manipulated by Yuan Zun!"
Bai Wei said, "Fellow Daoist, why do you say so?"
Daoist Daoyi said coldly, "I have been observing the Heavenly Secrets. The people of Yuan Zun has most likely found out the whereabouts of the primordial treasures of this era. If this person takes the Primordial Jade away, the two of you should know what the consequences will be without me saying anything!"
