In an instant, Zhang Yan's consciousness returned to his original body. With the clone of the Spirit of Creation staying there, before it was eliminated, the original body would not make any moves. Even if it insisted on sending out its clone, as long as the previous flaws were still there, and it was discovered in time, it would not pose too much of a threat.
After this matter was settled for the time being, his thoughts returned to the original matter.
It was not that there was no chance for him to make the general situation tilt towards his side. There was still a possibility of success.
It should be known that not all Bhadanta had the same opinion. In the past, the so-called general situation was only the general situation because there was no other choice, so it had to be so. But now, there was another choice for him.
If he could communicate with these Bhadanta, then even if only one of them stood on his side, the possibility of him achieving his goal would greatly increase.
In the past, it might not be possible. But now that the tribulation power had been broken, even the Lord of the Prison Realm could make the Weili fall to communicate with him. In that case, he could also think of a way to transmit his will over.
Thinking of this, he first thought of the person who was suspected to be the Shaoqing Grand Master's clone.
Although this clone was incomplete due to the Weili, and did not reach the level of Bhadanta, he could only vaguely sense where it was hiding. He could not be sure of the specifics. This should be a unique method. Even the previous conflict between the Spirit of Creation and the Weili was avoided by it. If he were to communicate with it now, he might be able to discuss this matter.
Having made up his mind, he immediately took out the Qi activity that that person had entrusted to him, and called out in his heart.
After a while, a sword-light flashed, and a Daoist appeared.
Zhang Yan bowed and said, "Daoist, long time no see."
The Daoist returned the greeting and said, "Daoist friend, you're too courteous. With your current abilities, there must be something important for you to call for me."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "I do have a matter that I would like to ask of you. After the essence of creation was broken, the Bhadanta and the Spirit of Creation have been fighting against each other. Right now, it is about to reach the end. Previously, someone came to advise me to wait and wait until the power of calamity is broken. He even said that if I don't do so, it will cause the overall situation to collapse. However, when I wanted to ask for the inside story, he was secretive and refused to say it, only saying that we will know when the time comes."
The Taoist didn't seem to care. He waved his sleeves and said, "The way we do things is to be free and unrestrained. Whatever we want to do, we can do it. There's no need to care about what others say. This fellow is sneaky and refuses to tell us the details. Why should we care about him?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "I thought that what he said was the general situation, not my general situation. I have fought together with you, and we have a good understanding of each other, so I was thinking that after the Spirit of Creation breaks the power of calamity, would you be willing to join forces with me?"
The Taoist looked at the crack and said, "I can give it a try."
Zhang Yan said, "Then I'll leave it to you."
The Taoist said, "You're too kind. According to what you said, this person is overcautious and hesitant. I don't want to have anything to do with such a person."
He raised his hand and bowed again, then turned and walked into the depths of the Void, disappearing in a flash.
Zhang Yan thought for a while. The thoughts of the incarnation and the original body were different. He didn't know what choice this person would make in the end, and because of the obstruction of the calamity, the other party might not respond. But it was enough for him to say it in advance.
And he wouldn't put all his hopes on one person. Next, it's time to find another person. Thinking of this, he changed his mind, and in an instant, an incarnation walked out of Xuanyuan Heaven.
In Bu Xu Heaven, Luan Fang and Bing Kong were sitting in their own residence. Recently, they also felt that many things were not right, and the atmosphere in the Void had become unusually tense.
But they also understood that as long as it involved the battle between the Bhadanta and the Spirit of Creation, ordinary Spirit Refinement cultivators almost had no room to intervene. Ever since they achieved the Dao, this kind of feeling of not being in control was very rare.
Bing Kong's face was solemn. "I see that the calamity power is already full of loopholes. The Spirit of Creation will arrive soon."
Luan Fang said, "Bu Xu Heaven is the place in the Void where the essence of creation is the most concentrated. As long as we hide here, I think even if there is a collapse, it won't affect this place."
Bing Kong said in a deep voice, "That's the reason, but the Spirit of Creation can be so powerful that we can't estimate it. If it weren't for the protection of Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan, even if we were in Bu Xu Heaven, we wouldn't be able to resist the invasion of the Spirit of Creation's Weili. And if the battle becomes more intense, I'm afraid that Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan won't be able to take care of us."
Luan Fang shook his head and sighed. He understood in his heart that he couldn't rely on others for this kind of thing. It was already good enough that they could hide in Bu Xu Heaven. Even if they couldn't be protected, it was only their own luck and they couldn't blame others.
Just as the two of them were talking, a young Daoist in a black robe walked out from the void. He walked over slowly and bowed. "Greetings, Fellow Daoists."
Luan Fang and Bing Kong's hearts tightened. They didn't expect that the young Daoist would arrive Just Now when they were talking about Zhang Yan. They quickly stood up and bowed, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist. What brings you here?"
Zhang Yan said, "I have something to ask the two of you."
Luan Fang said, "I see." He turned to the side and made a gesture of invitation, "Please forgive me for not knowing that Fellow Daoist would be here. Please take a seat."
Zhang Yan nodded, waved his sleeves, and sat down on the guest seat.
Luan Fang and Bing Kong followed suit and sat down. Then, they asked, "May I know what Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan wants to know?"
Zhang Yan looked at the two and said, "The two of you have fought against Ancestor Yao Han in the past. May I know when this started?"
Luan Fang pondered for a moment, then answered cautiously, "To be honest, Fellow Daoist, it happened before the essence of good fortune shattered. Due to our memory loss, we can't remember the details. After the essence of good fortune shattered, we fought against Ancestor Yao Han's Dao. That's how we managed to complete our Dao until Fellow Daoist came."
It wasn't hard for Bing Kong to understand that Zhang Yan was trying to find some clues about Ancestor Yao Han, so he said, "Actually, Yu Lu and Yu Qiu are more familiar with Daoist Yao Han than we are. It's a pity that he's no longer here."
Zhang Yan shook his head. Although Yu Lu and Yu Qiu were banished into eternal silence by him, there should still be traces of their Weili. However, he didn't find any traces of Ancestor Yao Han's Weili. Therefore, he suspected that the two of them came from the same source as Ancestor Yao Han. The reason why there were three of them was just to fool others.
He pondered for a moment, then said, "If that's the case, I'll need to borrow your Qi to investigate some matters."
From their conversation, it wasn't hard to tell that after the essence of good fortune shattered, the two of them had been fighting against Ancestor Yao Han and the other two for a long time. The conflict between Dao and Dao of Virtue had spread across many realms. It could be said that they were the ones who had the most contact with Ancestor Yao Han's Weili. If he could borrow their Qi and find the Weili left behind by Ancestor Yao Han, then he could pass on the message.
Ancestor Yao Han was a person of great virtue. Although he might not care about the matter of his clone, he wouldn't be so naive as to think that the two of them would stand on his side. However, if he didn't try, who knew what the result would be?
Luan Fang and Bing Kong looked at each other, but they didn't hesitate. They each took out a strand of Qi and gave it to him.
Zhang Yan took it, then his figure flickered and returned to his real body. He then used the Qi to perform a divination.
At this time, his incarnation in the Mountain and Sea Realm's Green Heavenly Temple arrived in front of the abyss and sent a message to the Netherworld Spring Sect.
Yuwen Hongyang's clone was sitting in the sect. When he sensed his arrival, he came out to greet him. "Esteemed One, what brings you here?"
Zhang Yan said, "I have something to discuss with the Patriarch of your sect, so I would like to ask Fellow Daoist to set up an altar and offer a sacrifice."
Yuwen Hongyang thought for a moment, then said, "I can give it a try. Esteemed One, please follow me."
Zhang Yan nodded and followed him. In the next moment, they arrived in front of the Netherworld Spring Sect's Patriarch Hall. Yuwen Hongyang apologized and asked Zhang Yan to wait for a moment before entering the hall to pay his respects.
Zhang Yan said, "Sect Leader Yuwen, please go ahead."
Yuwen Hongyang cupped his hands and entered the hall. When he came out, he said, "I've set up an altar in front of me. However, with my cultivation, I don't know if the Patriarch will respond. Esteemed One, please come in and take a look."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Many thanks, Sect Leader Yuwen."
He flicked his sleeve and walked into the hall, and then he raised his head to look at the sacrificial altar before his expression changed slightly. In his eyes, there was a Daoist standing there at this moment. However, the figure was completely formed from strands of dim yellow threads of qi, causing it to seem like a portrait drawn by smoke, mysterious, unfathomable, and indistinct.
He cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
The silhouette returned the greeting. He didn't speak, but wisps of smoke floated over and condensed into words between the two of them. The words said, "Fellow Daoist, do you have something to say to me?"
Zhang Yan didn't beat around the bush and directly stated his purpose. The Daoist stood for a moment as if he was considering his suggestion. However, he didn't make any response. He just cupped his hands and slowly left.
Zhang Yan didn't mind. He didn't need any promises from the other party. It was fine as long as the other party knew what he wanted.
He came out of the hall and thanked Yuwen Hongyang. Then, his consciousness returned to the main body.
At this moment, his expression became solemn. Now, only the Great Underworld Patriarch hadn't been notified, so he had to return to Qincang.
If he could successfully pass on the message, then the Patriarchs of the Nine Continents and the Four Sects would have delivered the message.
In fact, even if this didn't work out, it didn't matter too much. Based on the fact that he could visualize the Spirit of Creation and allow it to enter the Zhu Ye Realm in advance, the Great Virtuous Ones wouldn't be able to completely ignore him. They would definitely come to communicate with him again. At that time, there would be another opportunity.
