Within the sea of clouds, Lin Tingzhi was standing on the spell platform, waiting for something.
After a long time, he looked forward and saw a ray of light break through the sea of clouds, shining onto the spell platform. When the light dissipated, Chen Tingzhi appeared from within.
Lin Tingzhi cupped his fists and said, "Chen Tingzhi has returned. It must have been a tiring journey."
Chen Tingzhi returned the greeting and said, "I merely borrowed the Yuandu Xuantu to make a round trip. It's nothing."
Lin Tingzhi said, "Did Chen Tingzhi obtain that item?"
Chen Tingzhi flung his sleeve, and a wisp of Yuandu Xuantu Qi descended. This wisp of Yuandu Xuantu Qi blossomed with light, and it could be seen that there were wisps of green Yuandu Qi spreading out from within.
He said in a low voice, "When I arrived, that Heavenly Region had already collapsed. I used Yuandu Xuantu Qi to gather it back up, and I only managed to obtain a small wisp."
Lin Tingzhi saw that the green Yuandu Qi had reached the outside world, and turned into a drop of clear dew that fell into the pool of water. The branch that was immersed in the dew was nourished by this, and the originally greyish-white branch was like a withered tree that had come back to life. The middle section slowly turned green, and it gradually spread out to both ends.
At this moment, a second drop of clear dew fell into the pool of water, and continued to support the spreading of the Yuandu Qi. However, it was still a little bit away from the two ends of the branch.
However, at this moment, the green Yuandu Qi had already completely fallen, and there was no third drop of green dew to condense. The green Yuandu Qi had lost its support, and it actually didn't advance or retreat. Instead, it retracted, and quickly returned to its original state. The green branch that was gradually rising to the surface of the water, as if it was about to be reborn, sank back down again.
It was obvious that this wisp of Yuandu Xuantu Qi wasn't enough to awaken this branch.
Lin Tingzhi couldn't help but feel regretful and said, "What a pity. If the Zhengqing Daoist had come out a little later, perhaps this branch could have been awakened, and then we could have seen Shangchen's main Heavenly Region."
Although he hoped that Zhengqing could hold on a little longer, he wasn't like Hunkong Laozu who would allow Zhengqing to be killed. They wanted to rescue Zhengqing, and at the same time, find Shangchen's main Heavenly Region.
Chen Tingzhi said in a low voice, "From the way Zhang Shouzheng and the Zhengqing Daoist were ambushed this time, this should have been done by Ying Chong. I understand Ying Chong. This time, the Zhengqing Daoist was able to come out so quickly. Other than the Zhengqing Daoist's own abilities, it could also have been done by Ying Chong intentionally."
Lin Tingzhi said in surprise, "Why would he do this?" Since he had set up a trap, then he should have achieved his goal. Otherwise, wouldn't it have been a waste of effort?
Chen Tingzhi said, "According to my deduction, Ying Chong set up this trap because he had originally prepared a killing move. However, because of some misgivings, or some other reason, this killing move didn't land in the end."
Lin Tingzhi's expression became more Solemnly. He said, "Chen Tingzhi, what do you think the killing move was?"
Chen Tingzhi said, "It can't be the Cymbidium Lucidum. If this item was used to deal with the Zhengqing Daoist, the other party wouldn't have come up to trap him. Instead, they would have directly used that killing move. If this item is excluded, if one wants to kill the Zhengqing Daoist, then it would usually be the intervention of a powerful upper realm expert."
Lin Tingzhi immediately refuted, "That's impossible. If the three from Shangchen directly made a move, the Five Enforcers wouldn't have left it alone. They wouldn't have personally come down."
Chen Tingzhi said, "Then it can only be the Dao Suppressing Treasure."
Lin Tingzhi was surprised at first. Then, he seemed to have thought of something. His expression became more serious as he said, "I understand. If that's the case, then it makes sense." He pondered for a moment and said, "Since the Five Enforcers didn't stop this, then they must have other considerations."
Xi Qiongtian, Kui Mansion.
For more than a month, the disciples who were stationed in Xuanxiu on the Big and Small Earthly Stars of Kui Mansion who had accumulated merit in the past were all given a "Zhijian True Spirit".
Ding Ying also received one because she followed her teacher and was stationed in Kui Mansion and had accumulated merit.
When this item was first sent, it was placed in an exquisite porcelain box. After opening it, the jade-white jade body was half sunk in a red soft silk. It was like a fine polished jade, smooth and delicate. It was refined and elegant. She fell in love with it at first sight.
In the past, her teacher didn't allow her to use this item. However, this time, he made an exception and allowed it.
After she poured her essence blood into it, she felt that there was an additional consciousness in her body that was completely attached to her. After trying it out, she felt that it was really useful. Thus, she gave her own True Spirit a name, "Hidden Fragrance".
What was especially interesting was that after she communicated with the people around her, she found that every Zhijian True Spirit had a different temperament. She heard that some Zhijian True Spirits were following their masters' orders, but they always went against their masters with their words. This made her feel very amused.
She also heard a saying that the Zhijian True Spirit's temperament was related to its master. Because her Zhijian True Spirit, "Hidden Fragrance" was very gentle and gentle, she was very happy for a few days. Her voice also became soft and gentle. Until one day, she was bumped into by her teacher and was punished by sitting for a few days. Only then did she return to her original tone of speech.
However, her excitement didn't stop because the more she used it, the more she found the Zhijian True Spirit to be useful. This thing understood her better than herself. Not only could it formulate a suitable and appropriate cultivation method, it could also let her make the most correct choice for various things.
Moreover, "Hidden Fragrance" also told her that it was originally her own ability, but it was only through the Zhijian True Spirit that she could exert the best side of it.
Because her teacher only allowed her to use the Xuntian Dao Zhang once every half a month, so ten days after she got this thing, she couldn't wait to summon the Xuntian Dao Zhang. She was eager to share her joy with Yue Luo, An Ran, Du Xiaoxiao, and other friends.
After showing off, she suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Little Luo, you have also made contributions in the Kui Residence before, right?"
Yue Luo said, "Yes."
Ding Ying said happily, "Then Little Luo is really lucky. I heard that this time, all the cultivators who have performed meritorious deeds in Kui's Residence within the past 20 years will be given this item. Perhaps it will be here soon."
At the same time, she comforted Du Xiaoxiao and An Ran twice, saying that this thing was actually not that rare. Zhijian True Spirit could be made in the Tenki-in Hall, so it was actually very common.
But she knew in her heart that her teacher usually didn't allow her to use this thing, but this time, she allowed it. It must be that the Zhijian True Spirit this time was different. Thinking about it, maybe this thing was very likely to come from the Xuanting.
Du Xiaoxiao was thoughtful. Although she was not a cultivator of the Kui Residence, she was in the upper level, and her teacher was Xuan Zun. It was always easier to get this kind of thing.
She wasn't doing it for cultivation, but because she thought that with this thing, there would be someone who could talk to her and speak the truth. She wouldn't be like those senior and junior sisters who put on a fake face all day long, but said things that went against their hearts.
After Ding Ying showed off to her friends for a while, she left the room and chatted with Yue Luo and the others. She then flipped through the pages of the Heaven Reprimanding Dao Scripture to look at some interesting things.
She soon saw that there was also a mention of Zhijian True Spirit, so she was very curious. But when she looked, she saw that the whole article was saying that this Zhijian True Spirit was not suitable.
Under the secret promotion of Yu Dajiang, in just half a month, there were many opinions about this Zhijian True Spirit in the Xuntian Dao Zhang.
These cultivators said that the reason why this Zhijian True Spirit was a gift was because this thing itself had many defects. In order to make up for the defects, the creator wanted to use many cultivators to try to perfect this thing.
In fact, this thing could not be compared with the original "Observer" or "Zhijian True Spirit", and if used too much, it may affect the consciousness of a cultivator. This person also said that one of his friends had participated in the creation of this thing, and took out a lot of evidence that seemed quite credible.
And below, many people stood up and said that this was indeed the case.
Yu Dajiang knew that it was useless to just slander, so what some people said was actually not false.
Some people who seemed to agree with them were actually unscrupulous cultivators.
After these people obtained the Zhijian True Spirit, they did feel that something was wrong, but whether it was the influence of the Great Chaos or the Zhijian True Spirit, even they themselves could not be sure. But with the Zhijian True Spirit, the problem could naturally be blamed on this thing.
But there were also many people who refuted, but because this thing could not be compared, it was difficult to prove whether it was right or wrong.
And some Xuanxiu who had obtained the Zhijian True Spirit were also suspicious when they saw these comments. Some who were more cautious and conservative directly removed this thing from their consciousness.
But some people just had to take it seriously. Ding Ying was not convinced. She trusted her teacher very much. Since her teacher was willing to make an exception this time, there was definitely no problem. And just now, she had already shown off, but now they said that it was wrong. Did she not want to lose face?
So she could not help but go up and leave a comment to argue a little. But she was there alone, and a group of people were against her, so she could not resist at all. She had to go back to Yue Luo to complain, and she wanted her to refute those people with her.
Yue Luo could only comfort her. She did not know anything about this thing, and she would not talk nonsense just because Ding Ying was close to her.
But just after noon that day, she received the Zhijian True Spirit from outside. When she opened it, it was indeed exquisite and delicate, and looked very pleasing to the eye.
But she did not dare to immediately ask Xuan Zheng and Cui Yue. Cui Yue replied, "I know the origin of this thing, but it is inconvenient to tell you. Many disciples of the East Court who have been to Kui Mansion have also obtained this thing. Don't worry about the comments on Xuntian Dao Zhang. You can use it without worry."
When Yue Luo heard him say this, she was immediately relieved. She transferred her own essence and blood to it, and it merged into her consciousness. After she tried it herself, she felt that this thing was very useful.
And Chen Song's attitude also showed that this thing was of good origin. Since this was proven, she naturally had to stand up and say something fair.
But after thinking about it again, she could tell from Cui Yue's words that there might be another story behind those comments. Her words carried little weight, and she was afraid that she would not be able to convince others. Then … why not ask some people with status or prestige to come out and say something?
