He had been wondering why Ancient Sage Yan Qing, who was clearly the strongest among them and possessed the Prime Amulet, would allocate the slots to the other powers to obtain the Great Codex of Spring and Autumn?
It was only after hearing those words that he came to a realization.
Even with the Prime Amulet in hand, if they could not find a way to open the Prime Hall, they would only be able to look on helplessly.
And the crux to opening the Prime Hall was the crux of the Six Great Worlds!
It seemed like Ancient Sage Yan Qing had obtained four of them.
"It seems like Little Amulet isn't completely useless after all …"
Zhang Xuan nodded in realization.
Previously, he had heard from his parents that he had been teleported to the vicinity of the Subordinate Hall due to his Celestial Amulet of Legacy. He had been wondering why Little Amulet had ended up in the forest before him, but at this very moment, he realized that there was no mistake in the sequence at all!
Only by entering those worlds would they be able to find the crux of the Six Great Worlds would they be able to find a way to activate the crux and enter the Prime Hall.
Otherwise, even with the Prime Amulet in hand, they would only be able to stand outside the Prime Hall.
This was similar to the sequence of unlocking the Prime Amulet of Legacy.
"Even Ancient Sages are unable to enter the Six Great Worlds due to their overwhelming strength. The fact that the crux of the Six Great Worlds has been taken away means that the crux of the Six Great Worlds has been taken away. As long as you take it out, you'll be able to exchange it for a slot for your faction!"
Ancient Sage Yan Qing said as he lowered his head.
Due to the limitations of their strength, they had not been able to enter the Six Great Worlds, so they had no idea who had taken the crux of the Six Great Worlds.
However, the fact that the crux of the Six Great Worlds had been taken away from the Six Great Worlds and was in the hands of the people below.
It was precisely because they were unable to verify the crux of the matter that they decided to gather all of them and distribute the slots publicly.
Otherwise, they would have already made a deal with the crux of the matter.
"Allow me to go first!"
Seeing that there was no response from the crowd, Ancient Sage Yan Qing flicked his finger, and a book appeared in his hand.
Wuwuwuwu!
The book immediately flew toward the Prime Hall and embedded itself in one of the grooves by the side of the door, emanating a faint glow.
Zhang Xuan took a closer look and saw that there were three grooves on each side of the door. Together, they corresponded to the crux of the Six Great Worlds.
"This is the crux of the Kui Wen Pavilion, which corresponds to that, the crux of the Library. Our Hundred Schools of Philosophers has been obtained.
Ancient Sage Yan Qing said.
With the Prime Amulet in hand, they had obtained five of them, and they had split one evenly among themselves. Now that they had obtained another Prime Amulet, they had already claimed nearly half of the fifteen slots. In other words, no matter how the slots were distributed later on, they would be the biggest winners. There was no need to worry anymore.
"Those who have obtained the crux of the formation, please take it out. Don't worry, with the Ancient Sages of the Four Great Powers around, no one will dare to snatch your slot and assets. If you feel that your cultivation is insufficient and you don't want the slot, feel free to exchange it for resources. As long as it's within our means, our Hundred Schools of Philosophers will do our best to help you!"
Ancient Sage Yan Qing said as he inserted the core of his formation into the gate.
"This …"
"Who has the array core?"
"If I had known this would happen, I would have thought of a way to find the core of the formation. That way, I could have at least gotten a spot for my side …."
"Who would have thought of this …"
…
Below, there was a lot of discussion.
Everyone looked at each other. They wanted to know where the array core was and who took it away.
"Why? Are you still worried? All of us Ancient Sages here can vouch for you with our lives that we'll only use your formation core to open the Temple of Confucius. Once we succeed, we'll return the formation core to its rightful owner.
Seeing that no one was moving, Ancient Sage Yan Qing continued.
If they had any other crux, they would have long activated the Prime Hall. There was no need for them to waste so much time and effort.
"I know who has the crux of the formation for the forest world and desert world!"
A sinister voice suddenly sounded from the midst of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe.
It was Old Geezer Yu.
"Where is it?"
Ancient Sage Yan Qing hurriedly turned his gaze over.
If they could not find the crux of the formation, they would never be able to open the Prime Hall.
"It's in the hands of the person from the Zhang clan who tamed Venerable White's descendant!" Old Geezer Yu harrumphed coldly.
"Him?"
Yan Qing and the other Ancient Sages swiftly turned their gazes toward Zhang Xuan.
"This …"
Under everyone's gazes, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but feel a little awkward.
"Young friend, are you sure that the cruxes of the forest world and desert world are in your hands?" Ancient Sage Yan Qing asked.
"I think so. However, both of them are living creatures, so how could they possibly be embedded into the door?" Zhang Xuan scratched his head.
The forest world contained the Five Monarchs whereas the desert world contained the tree root … Since both of them were living creatures, how could they possibly be embedded into the door?
"It doesn't matter if they're living creatures. As long as we take them out, they'll naturally enter the Prime Hall," Ancient Sage Yan Qing said.
"Alright then!"
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment before flicking his wrist. The Five Monarchs appeared before the crowd, and he pushed them forward.
Hu!
The Five Monarchs seemed to have been attracted by something, and their bodies began to shrink rapidly. Before they could even reach the Prime Hall, they had already turned into a round plate of yin and yang. Kacha! They were embedded into the door, emanating a brilliant glow.
"This …"
Not expecting the Five Monarchs to turn into something reminiscent of the Taiji Fish, Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
"Since you have the crux of the forest world, you have earned a slot for the Mingshi Tang. If you have the crux of the desert world as well, hurry up and take it out!"
Seeing that it was indeed the crux of the formation, Ancient Sage Yan Qing heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhang Xuan nodded in response.
Flicking his wrist, Zhang Xuan took out a tree root and flicked it.
Just like the Five Monarchs, it was embedded into the door as well. Three cruxes were placed into the door, and the surroundings glowed brightly. It seemed like the Prime Hall of the Temple of Confucius would open at any moment.
"This is great!"
Ancient Sage Yan Qing clenched his fists tightly in agitation as he scanned the surroundings once more. "There are still the cruxes of the poison world, stone forest world, and snow world remaining. I beseech those who have obtained them to open the door to the Prime Hall!"
His voice reverberated in the surroundings, but there was still no response from the crowd. It was as if the cruxes of the three worlds had vanished into thin air.
"Could it be that those who have obtained the cruxes of the three worlds haven't come here yet? Or could it be that no one has obtained the cruxes of the three worlds? "
"That's impossible! Without obtaining the cruxes, there's no way the six worlds can be connected together!"
…
Seeing that no one had stepped forward, the Ancient Sages frowned.
"Those who have obtained the cruxes of the formation, there's no need to worry. I, Yan Qing, swear on the name of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers that no one will make a move on you. Otherwise, I'll be the first to make an enemy out of the Hundred Schools of Philosophers!"
Seeing that no one had stepped forward, Ancient Sage Yan Qing thought that those who had obtained the cruxes of the formation were fearful of retaliation.
However, there was still no response. Just as he was wondering what was going on, Zhang Xuan suddenly raised his hand fearfully and said, "It seems like the cruxes of the poison world and snow world are with me as well!"
"They are with you? You managed to obtain four of the cruxes of the formation all by yourself? "
The surroundings fell silent.
