"Found it?" True Lord Gu Yue was clearly startled and seemed to want to ask a few more questions. However, he quickly thought of something and after looking at True Lord Tian Lan's expression, he silently nodded and did not mention anything else.
"It's still unclear whether something like the Heaven and Earth God Tree exists or not. The people from the Devil Cult believe it without a doubt, while we from the Righteous Path scoff at it. However, at our level, our way of thinking is different from ordinary people. " Gu Yue took the huge and gorgeous ten-thousand-year-old Hawksbill Turtle and placed it in front of him. At the same time, he said indifferently, "But what we can be sure of is that the four treasures of the Heaven Tree passed down by the Devil Cult are definitely not ordinary items. They might even contain divinity spiritual energy, so it's very easy for them to be concealed by the power of divination. According to the saying of our divination, it's probably because spiritual objects are naturally protected by fate. "
True Lord Tian Lan nodded his head and said, "I've heard of this saying before. Divination is very popular in the world, but there are many people who pretend to be gods and ghosts. Most of them are liars, or they've only learned a little and are not capable enough. The items that I want to divine are divine objects. After thinking about it, only you have the ability to do so. "
Gu Yue picked up the few black meteorites and held them in his hand. With a trace of arrogance on his face, he said, "You're right!"
After saying that, he shook his wrist and threw the few black stones on the shell of the Hawksbill Turtle.
A few of the black stones started spinning non-stop. One of the stones that was spinning the fastest even let out a slight whistling sound.
Perfected Lord Tianlan's gaze also fell on the stones that were spinning in circles. At the same time, he said casually, "I say, you've taken out so many priceless heavenly and earthly treasures here. Is it really that difficult to divine those divine objects?"
Gu Yue did not answer him. Instead, he took the thousand-year-old agarwood and broke it in half with two fingers. Even with his status, a pained expression flashed across his face. However, he did not hesitate. He rubbed the agarwood in his hand and it instantly turned into powder. Then, it slowly fell from the sky and landed on the Hawksbill Turtle's shell and the spinning black stones.
Perfected Lord Gu Yue looked at Perfected Lord Tian Lan. "Hey, let me borrow your Pure Yang True Fire."
True Lord Tian Lan laughed. He did not ask much nor did he make any posture preparations. He flipped his palm and pressed it down.
A thick and heavy aura suddenly appeared in the Starry Hall. After a while, a flame that was almost pure white and even carried a hint of gold surged out from his palm and landed on the shell of the hawksbill turtle.
The flame seemed gentle and harmless, but even someone like True Lord Gu Yue had a slight change in expression when he saw it.
In fact, in this world, this seemingly inconspicuous Flame Divine Ability was almost one of the most powerful Dharmic powers. Even Soul Formation Perfected Monarchs had to be wary of such flames.
However, the preciousness of heavenly treasures and rare spiritual materials was finally revealed at this moment. Under the Pure Yang True Fire that seemed harmless, but was actually terrifyingly powerful and could melt anything, the ten-thousand-year-old Hawksbill Turtle and the black meteorite did not move at all, and did not show any reaction.
However, in contrast, the thousand-year-old agarwood ignited when it came into contact with fire. It instantly burned and turned into ashes. Then, a strong fragrance instantly surged out like a flood and filled the entire Starry Hall in the blink of an eye.
True Lord Gu Yue slowly retracted his hand and looked at the black meteorite that was gradually slowing down on the Hawksbill Turtle's shell. He suddenly said, "You asked me if adding these treasures to the divination ceremony was useful?"
"Yes."
True Lord Gu Yue said, "Actually, there's not much of a use. At least, when I did this in the past, I didn't feel that my spirit energy was stronger, my mental state was better, or any other particularly powerful effects."
True Lord Tian Lan was shocked and looked at him in confusion. "If that's the case, why did you still …"
"But some things in this world just don't make sense." True Lord Gu Yue said, "I've tried many times in the past. It was clearly me who did the divination and the state before and after were similar or even almost the same. However, I couldn't divine most of the time without adding these treasures. Although I didn't succeed every time after adding these seemingly useless treasures, the chances of a good outcome increased by at least 50%."
He looked at True Lord Tian Lan helplessly. "That's how it is. I don't know why either. Can you see anything?"
True Lord Tian Lan was also stunned and didn't know what to say. After a while, he said, "There's actually such a strange thing?"
True Lord Gu Yue took the Purple Gold Three-legged Dragon Tiger Cauldron that looked luxurious and extravagant. He lit three incense sticks and inserted them into the cauldron and placed it beside the Hawksbill Turtle. After a moment of silence, he said, "Tianlan, people like us who have cultivated our entire lives to reach this realm shouldn't believe in the will of the gods anymore."
True Lord Tian Lan said, "I don't believe it."
True Lord Gu Yue nodded. "I didn't believe it at first either. But all these years, I always felt that there seemed to be an inexplicable force in the unseen world. It can't be seen or touched, but I can vaguely sense it. "
He pointed at the things in front of him and said, "Let's take divination for example. Sometimes, I'll think that maybe there's really a God or a god hiding in a place that we can't see? Divination is to predict the fate and the future. How can it be so easy? Even if you have the ability to do so, if you don't add these precious and rare treasures and offer them as a tribute, why would the God of Heaven's Will let you see those things for nothing? "
"Do you think what I said makes sense?" He asked True Lord Tian Lan.
True Lord Tian Lan looked at him and suddenly grinned. Then, he said, "To put it simply, you're giving good things to what you think is the will of the gods. After bribing them, they'll give you benefits and you'll be considered to have succeeded. Right? "
True Lord Gu Yue thought about it and couldn't help but laugh. "That seems to be the case."
True Lord Tian Lan shook his head. "I don't believe that." After a pause, he said, "Even if there really is a god, it won't hinder my determination."
True Lord Gu Yue seemed to have expected such an answer. He nodded calmly and closed his eyes.
…
After an unknown period of time, the purple gold incense burner was surrounded by green smoke. The black stone on the hawksbill turtle stopped moving and formed a strange pattern. The surrounding fragrance was rich, and Gu Yue True Monarch's body suddenly trembled. Then, she suddenly shook violently and a trace of blood flowed down from the corner of her mouth.
True Lord Tian Lan's expression was solemn.
After a while, True Lord Gu Yue opened his eyes. His voice was also a little hoarse. He said softly, "These few divine objects of the demonic cult are really powerful …"
True Lord Tian Lan took a deep breath and said, "How is it?"
True Lord Gu Yue said, "Among the leaves, one is still in the south and the other is now in this immortal city. Also, that seed has the strongest divine power. The backlash I suffered is because of that."
True Lord Tian Lan was a little nervous and asked, "Can you see the whereabouts of the seed?"
True Lord Gu Yue hesitated and said slowly, "If I'm not wrong, the seed is now in the immortal city."
Perfected Lord Tian Lan's expression changed abruptly as his eyes lit up.
