Exalted Lu Hua hesitated for a while and said slowly, "You can put it that way."
Hearing his vague words, Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Could it be that you're not sure? Or is there something else? "
Exalted Lu Hua said, "At that time, my main body and my fellow Daoists only wanted to find a ferry and didn't think about anything else. They also didn't consider whether this would cause any changes. But later, we gradually realized that the result might be different from what we expected."
Zhang Yan became more interested and asked, "Oh? What's the difference? "
Exalted Lu Hua said, "When this matter was about to be completed, my main body and my fellow Daoists suddenly realized that another world had been formed outside of the Heaven that had been formed. It appeared abruptly without any prior signs."
Hearing this, Zhang Yan's eyes flickered.
Exalted Lu Hua continued, "Because of this, a dispute arose between us." He sighed slightly, "Two of my fellow Daoists believed that this place Just Now had fulfilled their previous visualization. It should be the ferry that would lead us to the Chaotic Realm. As for the original Heaven, it was just a prelude and was useless. We should give it up and focus on this place instead. However, my main body believes that the reason why I was able to appear in this place was because of my previous visualization. If I were to suddenly change my path, it would be the opposite of what I expected and it wouldn't work. Both sides insisted on their own opinions and couldn't convince anyone. In the end, to avoid harming our relationship, we decided to split up. "
Zhang Yan asked, "What happened next?"
Exalted Lu Hua shook his head and said, "I don't know what happened in the end. Only this Heaven still exists. As for whether it was the first Heaven that had been formed or the one that had been formed later, I can't judge it."
Zhang Yan pondered for a while and felt a little strange. Logically speaking, since both Heavens were possible, they should just verify it one by one. Anyway, as long as there weren't any external tribulations, a True Yang Bigwig would have an endless lifespan. Why would they go to such extremes? Was it an either-or?
There must be a reason that couldn't be explained clearly.
He privately speculated that there might be two reasons. The first was that each person could only choose one of the two realms, so there was nothing they could do about it. It was because it involved the dao path, so conflict was inevitable.
Another possibility was that these people had come into contact with certain things while they were visualizing, and their own knowledge had been diverted by some unknown force, just like how Bai Wei and the other four had been secretly guided by Taoist Wan Que. Their minds had been clouded, and so they had fallen into some sort of obsession.
Of course, the actual situation might be even more complicated. Without actual contact, it would be impossible to verify.
After thinking for a while, he said, "I wonder which world does Exalted Lu Hua think this is?"
Exalted Lu Hua thought for a while and said, "I'm inclined to believe that this is the place where I first visualized. However, I can't be completely sure."
Zhang Yan understood. This was why he was hesitating Just Now.
However, this was something worth pondering. Of the two worlds, only one was left. Did Exalted Lu Hua's main body and his fellow Daoists succeed or fail in the end?
He tried to ask, and Exalted Lu Hua said, "I don't know about this. It's just that most of the big shots who had participated in this matter, including my main body, had disappeared. I don't know if they had gone to the upper realm, or if something else had happened.
Zhang Yan started pondering. As the saying goes, a person goes on a boat. If they reach the other side, they won't come back. If he thought about it in a positive way, then Exalted Lu Hua's main body and his fellow Daoists had gone to the upper realm. If he thought about it in a negative way, then this group of people hadn't succeeded in the end, and the Void Realm had disappeared along with them.
He personally thought that it would be hard for Exalted Lu Hua and his fellow Daoists to achieve this.
In the end, it was still because their cultivation wasn't strong enough.
However, what they were doing might not be impossible. If they could get help from the outside, or the guidance of someone in the upper realm, then this wouldn't be an obstacle.
However, he keenly sensed that Exalted Lu Hua's words had revealed a piece of information inadvertently. He said, "Daoist friend, Just now, you said that most of them had disappeared. In that case, someone had stayed behind?"
Exalted Lu Hua replied, "There was indeed one person. His name was Feng Chan. When facing the dispute between the two sides, he didn't make any choice. Instead, he directly retreated and said that he wouldn't get involved in this matter anymore. As for whether he had participated in it or not, I have no way to know."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. Since he had a name, he couldn't investigate the experience of this person. Since it was Exalted Lu Hua who had done this with the others, he should know some inside information. If there were still cave mansions left behind, then he could find some clues.
He pondered for a while and said, "How many people have heard about the matter of the broken world?"
Exalted Lu Hua said, "Logically, besides my main body and my fellow Daoists, no one should know about it. However, the one who had formed karma with my main body knew about it. Maybe someone had leaked it to him, or maybe he had found some records of the past."
Zhang Yan said, "I have one last question. Where is the unknown place in the broken world?"
He could sense that Daoist Wan Que's karma had landed here, but he didn't know where the entrance to this world was.
Actually, Daoist Wan Que also didn't know about it. If he could find the entrance, he wouldn't need to discuss it with Exalted Lu Hua and could enter it by himself.
Exalted Lu Hua said, "I have to pay the price of my incarnation to open this world. However, I can only do this for an instant. If you agree to help me settle this Karma, I will immediately open the door to this world. In the future, you can decide how to deal with this world."
Zhang Yan nodded. It seemed that this broken world was connected by karma. Without the permission of its original owner, it was hard to enter. Although he could barge in by force, he would also destroy this place.
He said, "Daoist, you can settle your karma by yourself. I won't do it for you, but I won't let you get hurt for no reason. If I want to enter this world, I will help you to maintain this body."
Exalted Lu Hua was stunned and silently bowed.
Zhang Yan returned the bow and said, "Thank you for clearing up my doubts, Daoist. Sorry for disturbing you today. If there's anything I don't understand, I will come to visit again."
He felt that now wasn't the best time to enter this world. Daoist Wan Que knew a lot of things. Most of them might have been obtained from his original body when he was alive, and he suspected that some of them were related to the Busutian Weili. He hadn't returned this Weili yet. After this matter was settled, if there were still many things he didn't understand, he could go in and take a look.
With a thought, he left this place in the blink of an eye and returned to the Qinghuan Palace.
He sat down and spread out his magic power. He slowly sent the Weili into Busutian, and the part that was missing was quickly filled up.
During this process, he vaguely understood something. Unknowingly, his cultivation had improved. This wasn't just because of this, but also because of the battle with Daoist Wan Que.
Since there were no more obstacles, he tried to look deeper into Busutian. After immersing himself in it for an unknown period of time, his spirit Just Now withdrew from the outside world. However, only a moment had passed.
This time, he had really benefited a lot. He understood that he wasn't far from the true upper realm, but he still lacked a very crucial step.
He vaguely guessed how he should go, and also understood that this step wasn't too difficult for him. However, no matter from Daoist Wan Que's attitude or his own point of view, this matter definitely couldn't be done easily. He had to be extra cautious and find ways to verify it. In particular, he could use the various actions of the past sages as a reference. For example, the broken world was worth exploring.
Apart from that, he also gained something else this time.
Daoist Wan Que had the ability to interfere with the cognition and memory of others. Deng Zhang and the other Heartless Taoists had been used by him before, which led to the subsequent incidents.
With the return of Busutian's Weili, he was able to peer deeper, and naturally understood how to use this method.
In fact, as long as one's magic power reached his level, one could do this to those who were weaker than oneself.
However, this wasn't something that could be done as one wished. This place definitely couldn't touch the root of the person's cognition and couldn't go against their nature. If he were to use this method on Bai Wei and the others right now, he could use a non-existent matter to cause them to misjudge. However, if this matter went against their own will or harmed their own interests, then they would definitely be suspicious and would not easily fall into the trap.
For example, if he wanted Daoist Wan Que to tell him everything he knew, even if he was only a wisp of Essence Qi, it was unlikely that he could do it. It was more likely that he would die under the pressure of the Qi dynamic.
Zhang Yan understood that because True Yang cultivators could make everything beneficial to themselves, this should be because his magic power and cultivation had increased, causing this power to increase further. Thus, he could slightly interfere with those of the same generation.
From the looks of it, it was obvious that Daoist Wan Que had used such a method to lure Bai Wei and the others to the Wanque Galaxy. In that case, he could use the same method to make this person behave.
However, after some consideration, he didn't do so.
He had kept this person alive to stir up the karma and draw the Xuan Stone into the world. If he interfered and caused the karma to not flourish, then it would go against the original intention. Moreover, these people couldn't threaten humanity at all.
He put this matter aside and thought about how to investigate the broken world. The only clue now was Daoist Feng Chan. If he could find this person's whereabouts or his cave abode of the past, then perhaps there would be a way to understand the truth.
Thus, he settled his spirit and began to try to look at the past.
With his current infinite magic power, he could try to look at everything in Bu Xutian's past. If he could really do it, then no secret in the past could be hidden from him. However, it wasn't that he hadn't done this before, but every time he looked at the cycle of the calendar, he could no longer move forward. This path clearly couldn't be taken, so he could only try to find clues from this calendar.
Just a moment later, a boundary appeared in his field of vision.
He had a feeling that this was very likely the target he was looking for.
