In his daze, he vaguely saw that he had arrived above a white cloud. There was nothing there.
The cloud drifted with the wind, and no one knew where it went.
A figure sat on a cloud, looking down at the vast land beneath his feet. There were countless godly spirits and buildings, as if they were guarding or waiting.
He didn't move at all, as if he wasn't breathing.
"Senior …"
Perplexed, Zhang Xuan walked up to Zhang Xuan.
At his level of cultivation, he almost never dreamed. There must be a reason why he suddenly came here!
The figure did not speak, nor did he open his eyes, but his voice resounded in Zhang Xuan's mind, "You are able to walk your own path. I did not misjudge you. I hope that you will be able to walk further and further … Hurry up and cultivate! I won't be able to hold on for much longer … Also, condensing more golden pages will bring you unimaginable benefits … "
Boom!
Before he could finish his words, Zhang Xuan's body tensed up, and he hurriedly sat up. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was still in the room, and everything he had seen before seemed to be an illusion.
"What happened?"
What happened just now was too real. It gave people a feeling of being unable to distinguish reality from illusion!
His cultivation might not be high, but with the protection of the Library of Heaven's Path, his will and soul were extremely strong. Ordinary illusions and inner demons were unable to affect him in the slightest.
But at this moment, he was confused. Who was that silhouette?
How did he know about the golden page?
"Is it Kong Shi?"
The only ones who knew that he was in possession of the Book of Heaven's Path and the Library of Heaven's Path were Lozosy and Kong Shi. Even though Zhang Xuan was unable to discern the appearance of the silhouette from earlier, he was certain that it was a male.
Since that was the case, it could only be the World's Teacher!
"He won't be able to hold on for long … It's probably because of the competition between him and the God Monarch of the Sky of Freedom!"
As soon as he arrived in the Firmament, he had heard that the Heaven Subjugation Monarch and the God Monarch of the Sky of Freedom were going to have a duel. Both of them were experts who stood at the very top of the Firmament, so it was hard to say who would emerge victorious.
"Regardless of whether it is or not, I'm too weak right now. I don't have the power to get involved at all …"
As a high-tier God, even the average middle-tier Celestial God might not necessarily be a match for him. He might not seem weak at all, but against the top experts of the Firmament like Kong Shi and the God Monarchs, he was still too weak.
Even if he were to find the other party, there was no way he could be of any help. In fact, he might even bring trouble upon himself.
It was better to focus on improving his cultivation first.
Zhang Xuan turned his attention to the Library of Heaven's Path.
Previously, when this thing shook and knocked him out, he wanted to see if there were any changes.
After studying it for a while, he retreated.
It was exactly the same as before, as if the previous incident hadn't affected it at all.
It seemed like he would have to make full use of his time to forge the golden page.
No one beneath the heavens of the Firmament would be able to withstand the might of the Library of Heaven's Path. After entering the Firmament, the Library of Heaven's Path would fuse with the heavens of the Firmament, making it even more powerful. As long as one was not a God Monarch, even a Conferred God King would not be able to withstand it!
If he could really get his hands on a whole bunch of them, the strongest experts in the God Realm, other than the God Monarchs, would all be stripped clean by him.
Zhang Xuan put the pendant away. With this experience, it would be best not to study it for the time being.
He pushed open the door and walked out of the courtyard. Only then did he realize that he had been unconscious for more than four hours. Sun Qiang had already finished gathering information and returned to the courtyard.
"Young master!"
Sun Qiang walked up to Zhang Xuan and passed a jade token over.
Zhang Xuan took the jade token and scanned it with his consciousness.
It recorded the layout of Drifting Specter Royal City, as well as the various powers.
Naturally, the strongest person in Drifting Specter Royal City was Demon Monarch Qiankun, one of the Nine God Monarchs.
Demon Monarch Qiankun had spent most of his time in the Qian Origin Hall of the Cosmos Divine Palace, so no one had seen him in person.
The remaining strongest experts were the three Conferred God Kings. They were the old ancestor of Qi Ling-er's clan, Qi Meng! The old ancestor of the Shangguan Clan, Shangguan Wufeng, and the old ancestor of the Nangong Clan, Nangong Ping!
Nangong Ping had been defeated by the Heaven Subjugation Monarch forty years ago, resulting in his death. However, he had been nourished by his descendants, and through the Netherworld Pool, he had already developed sentience. It was only a matter of time before he came back to life. On top of that, there were still two God Kings in the clan.
As such, his standing was still unshakable.
"Young Master Lu Chong's matter is related to the God Monarch, so I haven't been able to find out anything about it yet. However, I do know where the God Monarch lives. It's located in the Netherworld Palace floating above Drifting Specter Royal City!"
Sun Qiang said. "If the God Monarch really intends to bring Young Master Lu Chong to cultivate, there's a good chance that he'll head there!"
Zhang Xuan nodded in response.
Most of his students had cultivated the simplified Heaven's Path Divine Art from the very start, so they had built a good foundation for themselves. On top of that, they had a deep understanding of battle techniques, so it was understandable that a God Monarch would take a liking to them.
Given that a God Monarch had left a voice message on the Celestial Mountain, it was unlikely that he would lower himself to lie.
So, for the time being, Zhang Xuan was not in any danger. However, as Zhang Xuan's teacher, he still wanted to know where Zhang Xuan was and how he was doing at the moment.
"Has Qi Ling-er returned yet?"
"She hasn't returned yet, but she has already sold thirty Beauty Pills. The money has already been deposited into your card. As for the Spirit God, I haven't heard anything yet. "
Sun Qiang said.
Zhang Xuan flicked his wrist and took out the card. He scanned it with his consciousness, and as expected, the numbers on it had changed. After using it so many times, he had already depleted most of his savings, but there was now an additional forty thousand Divine Coins.
From the looks of it, each of them was still priced at 1500 Divine Coins.
Back then, even a small city like Twilight City was unable to meet the demand for it. Given how big Drifting Specter Royal City was, it should be a piece of cake for him to sell it.
The only problem was how to open up the market in the early stages!
Of course, there was no need for him to worry about this. He just had to think of a way to add the Heavenly Energy into the Divine Essence Pill.
Knowing that Qi Ling-er had yet to find any news regarding Lozosy, Zhang Xuan could not be bothered to head out. Instead, he returned to his room to reinforce his cultivation. After a night, he had finally recovered from the aftereffects of the Library of Heaven's Path. While he did not achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation, his fighting prowess had grown significantly.
"It's a pity that I still haven't figured out the Celestial God realm cultivation technique yet …"
In the past few days, Zhang Xuan had not been slacking either. While he was cultivating, he had been constantly refining his cultivation technique. Even though he had a rough idea of what to do, it was clearly not easy for him to create a completely different cultivation technique.
Even though he was only a sliver away from breaking through, he was still unable to succeed.
I should still look for books to read. If I can gather the Heaven's Path Celestial God Divine Art, I might just be able to comprehend the Heaven's Path Divine Art.
Under normal circumstances, it would take at least a month or so for him to perfect the Celestial God realm cultivation technique. Unless … he could gather the Heaven's Path Divine Art and use it to spark inspiration.
"Is there any Mingshi Tang in Drifting Specter Royal City?"
Walking out of his room, Zhang Xuan looked for Sun Qiang.
Mingshi Tang was an impartial person, so it was most appropriate for him to collect cultivation technique manuals. On top of that, the students of Drifting Specter Royal City respected their teachers, and they would impart their cultivation techniques based on their aptitude.
"Previously, the Heaven Subjugation Monarch fought with the Qiankun Demon Monarch, and the Heaven Subjugation Monarch started imparting cultivation techniques to the public. However, the talent of the students they accepted was still beneath that of the ordinary students of the Sky of Drifting Specter."
Sun Qiang said. "Nevertheless, the master teachers of the Drifting Specter Royal City are extremely capable. Even though their students aren't too talented, the overall prowess of their students isn't beneath that of ordinary students. As a result, many people have been sending their untalented children over to the Drifting Specter Royal City."
Zhang Xuan nodded in response.
As a master teacher, he was well aware of the prowess of a master teacher. Through the guidance of a master teacher, it was possible for one's students to advance at a faster rate. Even if their students were lacking in talent, as long as they were willing to put in the effort, there was a high chance that they would succeed.
"Bring me over to take a look!"
After confirming that Mingshi Tang was in the Drifting Specter Royal City, Zhang Xuan had Sun Qiang lead the way without much hesitation.
While the Sky of Drifting Specter did not prohibit master teachers from entering the Drifting Specter Royal City, Mingshi Tang was still unable to become the pillar of support for a city or a nation like the Master Teacher Continent. Instead, it was only an ordinary occupation, and it was nowhere near comparable to blacksmiths and apothecaries.
As such, the Drifting Specter Royal City did not take up too much space.
Zhang Xuan shook his head as he looked at the ordinary-looking door and the shabby building before him.
Even though Kong Shi had defeated Demon Monarch Qiankun, and the effects of Mingshi Tang's teachings were apparent to all, it was still unorthodox in a place like Drifting Specter Royal City.
"Are the two of you here to listen to Fan Zhe laoshi's lecture?"
As soon as they entered the room, a young man walked up to them with a smile.
"Fan Zhe laoshi?" Zhang Xuan asked doubtfully.
"He's a middle-tier Celestial God realm master teacher, and he's currently the trump card of our Mingshi Tang Academy. His teachings are top-notch, but due to the doubts of the parents of the academy's students, he decided to conduct a public lecture for the parents of the academy's students.
The young man said.
"What's the lecture about?"
Zhang Xuan asked.
It was true that middle-tier Celestial Gods were powerful, but if the lecture was not suitable for them, there was no need for them to attend.
"The lecture is about how to achieve a breakthrough to the Celestial God realm, as well as the strengths and weaknesses of the Celestial God realm!"
The young man said.
"Then … Give me two tickets!" Zhang Xuan nodded.
He was still unable to create a Celestial God realm cultivation technique, so perhaps he might be able to get some inspiration from the other party's lecture.
"It's free for the parents of the students. Otherwise, it'll cost you ten Divine Coins!"
The young man said as he passed two tickets over.
Knowing that the lecture of a middle-tier Celestial God was worth the price, Zhang Xuan did not say much. He gestured for Sun Qiang to pay up before taking the tickets and making his way over to the lecture hall.
While walking, Zhang Xuan looked around.
The Mingshi Tang Academy was far from comparable to those on the Master Teacher Continent. Putting aside how shabby it was, there was not much of a crowd to be seen. Just like what Sun Qiang had said, most of the students who showed up were simply too lacking in talent, and most of them were crippled.
Under the rule of the Nine Skies Nine God Monarchs, it was no easy feat to become the new God Monarch.
Fan Zhe's lecture was located at the corner of the Mingshi Tang Academy. It did not take long for him to arrive at the lecture hall.
There were students and parents, and there seemed to be more than fifty people in the lecture hall. A hale and hearty old man stood on the stage, emanating a pure aura. From afar, it felt as if he was emanating an oppressive aura.
Zhang Xuan and Sun Qiang traded glances before taking their seats according to the seats on the tickets.
"Let the lecture begin!"
Fan Zhe said. After waiting for ten minutes, Fan Zhe calculated the time and announced.
