"Hall spirit …"
Yan Zhaoge's mind went blank for a moment, but he quickly recovered.
"Normally, it should be here." He nodded and said.
Before the Great Calamity, the few core buildings of the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace all had their own hall spirits to maintain their daily operations. There was no need for the experts of the Heavenly Court to stay here to look after them.
Although the hall spirit had consciousness, it didn't have any intelligence. It didn't have its own consciousness, thoughts, and memories like other intelligent beings. It could only handle things mechanically.
The Cloud Conquest Emperor seemed to have thought of something and fell into silence.
Yan Zhaoge was walking in the pavilion. His finger lightly brushed past the tables and chairs in the pavilion.
He wrote talismans in the air one after another. The talismans sank into the void within the pavilion. Before they could touch the building itself, they disappeared.
Cloud Emperor and He Mian looked at Yan Zhaoge's actions quietly. They didn't disturb him, nor did they fight for him.
After a while, Yan Zhaoge shook his head, "It's like there's a layer separating us from refining the Pill Hall. Although it's useful, it's still far from succeeding."
"If the hall spirit had perished, refining it would take time and effort, but there's still hope." Cloud Emperor said softly, "If we can't completely refine it, it means that the hall spirit is still here …"
He Mian frowned, "But the hall spirit doesn't seem to be here. If it's not in deep slumber due to its injuries, does it mean that the hall spirit has left the Purple Divine Pavilion?"
He looked at his master with uncertainty.
"Yeah, but normally speaking, that should be impossible." Cloud Emperor turned his head and looked at Yan Zhaoge, "Previously, the Fallen Deity said that this Pill Hall isn't normal. From the looks of it now, it's true."
Yan Zhaoge raised his head and looked at the top of the pavilion.
He Mian understood it now, and his face was filled with disbelief, "The Pill Hall's hall spirit has its own intelligence?"
"Not only did it have its own intelligence, it even condensed into a soul, and went out of its body." Cloud Emperor said slowly.
The "body" here was naturally the Purple Divine Pavilion that the three of them were currently in.
"Although it can leave the Purple Divine Pavilion, it can't leave the Pill Hall's territory. It can only move around within the hall's universe." The Cloud Emperor sighed, "The ones who occupied this place were not the old and young of the Heavenly Court from before the Great Calamity, nor were they outsiders like us."
Instead, it was the Pill Hall's hall spirit that had its own ideas!
"The disappearance of the three people from Minor White Peak was caused by this Hall Spirit?" He Mian quickly connected the dots and asked in a deep voice.
The Cloud Emperor nodded lightly, "It's most likely true. However, we don't know if they're dead or alive. We also don't know why the spirit of the Pill Hall captured them."
"The three of them and the three fellow Daoists of Ingenious Flying Peak who went missing along with them have already perished," Yan Zhaoge said softly now.
Emperor Yun and He Mian could not help but look at him.
"The corpses of the six of them were all kept by this Yan," Yan Zhaoge said.
Although there were many disputes with the bloodline of the Mysterious Sovereign, Emperor Yun and He Mian both nodded and said, "Thank you, Fallen Deity."
Yan Zhaoge didn't say anything more as he continued roaming about within the pavilion.
"If the Pill Hall's hall spirit develops its own intelligence, and has the intention to make things difficult for us, wouldn't it be extremely convenient? We'll be like sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?" said He Mian with a frown.
"After he left the Purple Divine Pavilion, his control over the Pill Hall would also decrease." Yan Zhaoge didn't turn his head back. As he explored the pavilion, he answered.
When He Mian heard this, he went into deep thought.
If that's the case, why did the hall spirit leave the core hub of the Pill Hall, the Purple Divine Pavilion?
Yan Zhaoge slowly walked around. After a while, he suddenly extended his hand and reached into the void.
In his other hand, the Profound Sky Purple Golden Furnace appeared.
The huge furnace shrunk and landed on Yan Zhaoge's palm. Then, it shone with radiance.
After a while, Yan Zhaoge slowly retracted his palm that was reaching into the void.
Within his hand, rays of flowing lights appeared.
Yan Zhaoge placed these lights into the Profound Sky Purple Golden Furnace, and the furnace immediately let out a loud bang.
When the furnace's cover was opened again, a jade slip that was flickering with purple radiance slowly flew out from within.
After Yan Zhaoge received the jade slip, he exerted force with his five fingers and directly crushed the purple jade slip.
Following his action, the pavilion suddenly trembled slightly.
The center, south, west, northeast, and northwest of the ground respectively lit up. Within the light, an altar condensed and formed.
At this moment, no matter if it was Yan Zhaoge or the Cloud Emperor, both of them felt a chill in their hearts!
An ice-cold thought suddenly rose in the hearts of the three of them.
It was as if a pair of cold eyes was staring at them.
Yan Zhaoge ignored it and walked forward. He first came to the side of the altar at the center and placed the Profound Sky Purple Golden Furnace on it.
In the sky above the altar, lights and shadows changed. In the end, they condensed into ancient runes and were engraved in the void.
"My time … is running out … Unfortunately, I didn't prepare enough … Between success and failure … The only thing I can do now is to take a risk so that I won't just sit there and wait for death … I only hate that kid for robbing the furnace and spoiling my plan … If I succeed, I will definitely kill him!"
The Cloud Conquest Emperor walked to Yan Zhaoge's side. He had done some research on ancient runes and could roughly understand the runes in the void.
After reading it, he turned his gaze towards Yan Zhaoge.
The existence that left the runes must be the hall spirit, and the person he hated was right in front of him.
Yan Zhaoge went into deep thought.
Because he had taken away the Profound Sky Purple Golden Furnace, it caused the other party to be unable to continue capturing people. That was why he said that he didn't prepare enough, and that he was in between success and failure.
The hall spirit had originally planned to slowly think of another way. He wanted to wait until he was fully prepared before taking action.
However, the Exalted Wood Luminary – Shao Junhuang opened the path to the Pill Hall. The appearance of the Exalted Fire – Suo Mingzhang gave the hall spirit a huge sense of danger and urgency. He had no choice but to take a risk and activate his plan in advance.
That was why he left the Purple Divine Pavilion. He hoped to complete his plan before Yan Zhaoge and the others, or rather, before Suo Mingzhang arrived.
Under the premise of not knowing when Suo Mingzhang would arrive, he naturally hoped that he could take action as soon as possible.
Yan Zhaoge took the Profound Sky Purple Golden Furnace. After thinking for a while, he came to the altar in the south.
From the looks of it, those words should be the last intent left by the hall spirit before he left the Purple Divine Pavilion.
It wasn't intentionally left behind. Because the intent was too strong, it had been engraved in the pavilion for a long time. Now, it was restored by Yan Zhaoge using a secret technique.
There wasn't only one intent.
If the altar in the middle restored the last sentence, which was the fifth sentence, then the altar in the south should have the first sentence.
Three on the left and seven on the right, two and four on the shoulder, six and eight on the foot, and five in the middle.
The rules here originated from the Book of Luo.
That was why the first sentence was in the south, the second sentence was in the northeast, the third sentence was in the west, the fourth sentence was in the northwest, and the fifth sentence was in the center.
Yan Zhaoge's expression was emotionless. He placed the Profound Sky Purple Golden Furnace on the altar in the south. Mobile users, please browse M. Read for a better reading experience.
