He held the Mountain-Splitting Axe in his hand. With a thought, the axe slowly shrank and became three feet long. It was just enough to hold with one hand.
Yang Jian thought again. The Mountain-Splitting Axe was like the Ruyi Jingu Bang that Yang Jian knew. It could be shrunk at will. Soon, it became the size of a fingernail. It lay in Yang Jian's palm and was almost weightless.
Could it be that the treasures refined by the Grand Supreme Elder could be shrunk at will?
Yang Jian smiled and returned the axe to the size that he could hold with one hand. He could sense the desolation in the axe and roughly understood that it was a treasure above the Numinous Treasure.
How could he take such a treasure away so easily?
If it was a gift from the elders of the sect, he naturally would not dare to reject it. If he had obtained it from killing enemies, he could use it at will.
However, he had nothing to do with Emperor Da Yu. Today, he had rashly visited. Emperor Da Yu had asked him to come and give it a try on account of Senior Shennong. After obtaining the Mountain-Splitting Axe, how could he make Emperor Da Yu believe that he would return the axe after using it?
The spearless spear was a gift from the Dragon Palace. It was inappropriate to use it as collateral.
The only Numinous Treasure he had, the Demon-Slaying Sword, was given to him by Master Chijing Zi. If Uncle-Master knew that he had used the Demon-Slaying Sword as collateral, he would definitely not be happy …
Yang Jian stood there with the axe in his hand, thinking hard. He realized that he didn't have many treasures that he had obtained himself.
After thinking about it, Yang Jian took out the bottle containing the Jade Fate Pill.
Although it was a "betrothal gift" to the Dragon Palace, it still had some value. He could use it as collateral. After he rescued his mother and returned the axe, he could take it away.
What kind of person was Emperor Da Yu? Why would he covet his pills?
Yang Jian made up his mind. He turned around and was about to find a way out when he saw Da Yu standing behind him with a smile on his thick lips.
It was even uglier than Yuding Zhenren's smile back then.
"Senior, this axe …"
"You've passed the three tests and understood the whole story. Just take it."
Da Yu said casually, "Follow me. Senior Shennong has been waiting for you for a long time."
"Senior." Yang Jian walked forward quickly and bowed to Da Yu with a Dao salute. He handed the Jade Fate Pill over. "This pill is the only treasure I can take out. When I use the Mountain-Splitting Axe to save my mother, I will immediately return the axe. This pill can be used as a guarantee."
Da Yu frowned and looked at Yang Jian. He was momentarily speechless.
Beside the altar, the six figures who were commenting on each other and were about to return to their respective caves looked at the platform again when they heard this.
The yellow-robed man laughed and said, "This kid is quite strange. Since he has already obtained the treasure, why did he say that he borrowed it?"
"That's not true. It's just that we feel that it's only natural for him to take the treasure after passing the three trials." One of the scholars shook his head. "However, in his opinion, he might have taken Fellow Daoist Da Yu's treasure for nothing. Hence, he pawned a medicinal pill and promised to return the ax in the future."
"Such actions are rare in the Primordial World."
"I'm ashamed to say this. When did we ever consider the treasures bestowed by others?"
The few of them sighed. Shennong stroked his beard and smiled. "His temperament is good. That's not bad."
The old man holding the Eight Trigrams Disc had a solemn expression. He said in a low voice, "Could it be that this child knows what fate is?"
"Fellow Daoist Fuxi, what do you mean?"
"If he takes the ax, his luck will be occupied. If this goes on, it will seem like he has many treasures and long luck. In fact, his luck has already been transferred to the treasure."
The few of them were surprised when they heard that. "There's such a saying?"
"What Senior Fuxi said can't be wrong. In terms of fate, even the Saints in the Primordial World are probably inferior to Senior Fuxi."
The old man shook his head and said, "Fellow Daoist Xuanyuan, you must be joking. The abilities of the Saints are unfathomable. They are not something we can guess. However, in ancient times, there was a mighty figure who asserted that treasures that are not Connate numinous treasures cannot be used to suppress luck. Otherwise, they will steal one's luck. "
"Perhaps Yang Jian knows about this. That's why he said that he's borrowing it, not taking it."
The few of them nodded and thought so. However, Shennong shook his head. "I think that Yang Jian just doesn't want to take Fellow Daoist Da Yu's treasures for nothing. That's all."
"You'll know once you ask."
The middle-aged man in the yellow robe with a sword smiled and immediately sent a voice transmission to Da Yu.
Da Yu was hesitating about whether to take the pill. Through the porcelain bottle, he could sense that the pill was extraordinary. It was filled with clear Qi and was beneficial to Essence Soul Dao cultivators.
However, he was a "senior" after all. He could not take the treasures of a junior. If word got out, he would be a laughing stock.
Coincidentally, a voice transmission entered his ears. Da Yu nodded calmly and pushed Yang Jian's porcelain bottle back.
"We set up these three trials to find a fated person for the Mountain Splitting Axe. Since you have already obtained the axe, you are the new owner of the Mountain Splitting Axe," Da Yu said. "Why do you say I'm borrowing it?"
"As the saying goes, I don't deserve a reward without doing anything," Yang Jian said calmly. "If Senior has something for me to do, such as giving me this treasure axe and asking me to kill a ferocious beast that brings harm to the human world, I will not dare to decline."
Da Yu nodded and gestured for Yang Jian to continue.
"However, I took the axe to save my mother. This is a personal matter. Perhaps I will cause some karma for Senior. If I take it away directly, it would be too overbearing. "
"What you said is really unique in the Primordial World." Da Yu sighed. "Back then, when the Grand Supreme Elder gave me this axe, I only thanked him. I did not have the same thoughts as you. Now that I think about it, I feel a little ashamed. "
"Senior …"
"Take it." Da Yu smiled. "Do you think this is a market where immortal treasures are bought and sold here?"
Yang Jian was stunned. He hurriedly said, "I don't mean that. In that case, thank you for bestowing me this treasure, Senior. Yang Jian will definitely repay this favor in the future. "
"There's no need for that." Da Yu waved his hand. "As the saying goes, one does not expect to be repaid for a favor. This axe is only sealed by me. If it can shine in your hands, it can make the world remember that this axe had a master like me before. "
When Yang Jian heard that, he naturally did not decline. He cupped his fists at Da Yu and felt that Da Yu was a little heroic. It was just that he had hidden it previously.
Da Yu made an inviting gesture. Yang Jian could not walk in front and followed Da Yu out of the stone hall.
Before leaving, Yang Jian turned his head and saw that the two rows of stone pillars were gone. The square platform where the Mountain Splitting Axe had been tied was also gone. Instead, it was an exquisite courtyard.
That should be the residence of Emperor Da Yu. It was very simple, and there were some laughter coming from it. It should be a house full of children and grandchildren.
Da Yu said, "This is a good place. However, we are ordered by the heavens to suppress the destiny of the human race here. We cannot leave easily."
"The few Emperors have done too much for the human race. They are actually like this after leaving their positions …"
Yang Jian sighed from the bottom of his heart. Compared to the emperors in the mortal world, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors had sacrificed too much for the human race. Their merit could be said to be immeasurable.
"This trip was not in vain." Da Yu smiled and stood at the third cave on the right. He made an inviting gesture to Yang Jian. "Senior Shennong is waiting for you in the cave. I won't go."
"Thank you for bestowing me the axe, Senior." Yang Jian thanked him again.
"You obtained it yourself. There's no need to thank me again." Da Yu walked forward and patted Yang Jian's shoulder. "I can enjoy some family happiness with a genius like you in the human race. You have to remember the warning left behind by Ancestor Suiren. "
"Senior, please tell me."
"Humans respect the heavens, respect the earth, and fear ghosts and gods. It is precisely because of the fear in their hearts that they can constantly improve themselves."
Da Yu patted Yang Jian's shoulder three times. Yang Jian was a little emotional when he heard that. When Yang Jian was in a daze and looked in front of him again, there was no sign of Da Yu.
It was as if he had never stopped before.
Because of fear, he kept improving himself.
Suiren …
Yang Jian looked at the rightmost path. That should be where Suiren was. Although he was a little curious about the "mysterious" Suiren, he did not dare to walk around the Fire Cloud Cave.
He calmed himself down and walked into the cave where Shennong was. After taking more than ten steps into the cave, the area in front of him suddenly opened up. He saw a misty immortal mountain in front of him.
However, there was a universe inside.
There was a pavilion on the immortal mountain. Two old men were sitting quietly in the pavilion. They looked over at the same time.
Yang Jian had seen the person on the left before. It was Shennong. Although Yang Jian had never seen the person on the right before, he saw the Eight Trigrams Disc in his hand. A name immediately surfaced in his heart.
Fuxi.
Two of the three emperors were waiting there. Yang Jian was a disciple of the Dao Sect. Otherwise, even the current Di Xin of the Shang Dynasty would have to kowtow when he came here.
Yang Jian sat in the distance and bowed twice. Shennong waved his sleeve and a long rainbow arrived at Yang Jian's feet.
Yang Jian walked over and looked at the two important figures who had powerful backgrounds in his previous life. He was a little puzzled.
Could it be that my master is friends with these two?
