After Lin Tingzhi bid farewell to Zhang Yu, he immediately went to look for Zhong Tingzhi and Chong Tingzhi to discuss this matter. He also promised to allow the Tenki-in Hall to make another attempt as compensation.
Zhong Tingzhi and Chong Tingzhi saw that this matter was related to the safety of Tianxia. It was also a serious matter and was not deliberately targeting them. Thus, they did not say anything. After some discussion, they both agreed.
This matter did not even need to be discussed in court. The various court officials only needed to spread the news and it was settled.
After Lin Tingzhi returned, he used a day to refine many defensive magic tools. One batch was sent to the Shouzheng Palace and the other batch was distributed to the guards of the various continents.
Zhang Yu took the opportunity to distribute the talismans that Lin Tingzhi left behind to everyone in the Shouzheng Palace. Those who had seen this mystical creature before could use this talisman to eliminate the Lingering Will in their consciousness. Those who had not seen it before could also use this talisman to protect themselves.
This matter went very smoothly. The main reason was that only Ai Bogao and Jin Zhixing had captured this mystical creature and did not spread it around. After the two of them received the talisman and understood the whole story, they were shocked by the power of this creature and hurriedly removed the Lingering Image from their consciousness.
As a result, the mystical creature's host outside of Tianxia's territory were all outside of its main body. Because the main body was still trapped in the talisman weapon, as long as the members of the God Recovery Assembly who awakened this creature did not run around, it would not spread too far.
At this time, the Tenki-in Hall was still methodically preparing for the breakthrough attempt at the end of July.
This time, they still set the location at the outer layer. Based on the previous experiment, without the influence of the Turbid Tide, this attempt would be more likely to succeed.
The Tenki-in Hall had already made a decision last time. This time, they would no longer try to be secretive. Instead, they would use Xuntian Dao Zhang to show the entire process to the various academies.
In the beginning, there were people who suggested that this could be shown to all the citizens of Tianxia. However, this idea was too radical, so it was rejected. After all, they couldn't guarantee success.
Although the contents of Xuntian Dao Zhang could not be shown to ordinary people, cultivators had a way to copy what they saw in their minds and then show it to others.
Of course, this required at least the Primordial Spirit Reflection, which was the Xuanxiu of the fourth chapter of the book, to be able to do it. However, it was still possible to find a cultivator in each upper continent who was willing to help. After all, what they were doing was not against the rules.
Even if the Daoist cultivators in the continent were unwilling, the Monk Hunjang who lived outside the continent would be willing as long as they paid a certain amount of compensation.
When the various academies found out about this, they were all very interested. This was especially so for the Creation Academy, which was a place where master craftsmen and master craftsmen from various continents resided. They all worked hard to publicize this matter to their students, and thus attracted the interest of many students from other academies.
Not only the students, but many Xuan Zun also began to pay attention to this matter. Originally, they didn't care too much about the attempt to change the lower level of creation. However, after the body of the creation was entrusted with spiritual energy, and after Cen Chuan and the other Xuan Zun joined forces to submit a petition, they began to pay more attention to this matter.
Time flew by, and soon it was July.
During this period, there were no twists and turns. The preparation of the Tenki-in Hall went smoothly. Tens of thousands of craftsmen were once again transferred to the outer void. This time, there were more experienced and more skilled craftsmen.
Many of the master craftsmen were smug. Many of them thought that they might have succeeded last time, so they also hoped to see success this time.
This time, because of the huge wave of excitement, they felt that even if they failed, they could still attract more attention to the creation and attract more students. As long as there was an endless stream of talents to the Creation Academy, they would be able to break through the barrier sooner or later.
On the day of the attempt, there were still more than two summers before the scheduled time. However, there was a commotion in the Tianji Headquarters. Many people stopped what they were doing, and some hurriedly walked out.
Long Daisen asked in surprise, "What happened?"
Yu Dajiang ordered the student beside him, "Go take a look."
The student ran out. After a long time, he came back and said, "Teacher, a Daoist cultivator came to the headquarters. He said that he was the Xuanting's messenger. Even the Vice Headmaster and Grandmaster Wei went to greet him. They also asked Teacher and Long Daisen to go over. "
Long Daisen asked in surprise, "Why did the Xuanting send a messenger here at this time?"
Yu Dajiang said, "Let's go take a look."
The two left and went to the main hall. When they arrived at the front hall, they found that many master craftsmen had also arrived. Even the Vice Headmaster, a familiar official from the Ministry of Heavenly Works, and Grandmaster Wei were standing with a middle-aged Daoist cultivator.
The appearance of this Daoist cultivator made the two of them feel that he did not come with good intentions.
Wei Shan said to the middle-aged Daoist cultivator, "Li Daoxiu, almost everyone is here. You tell them."
The middle-aged Daoist cultivator said, "The Xuanting has ordered that he will requisition the body of this creation after the attempt to break through. This is to eliminate a mysterious creature that threatens Tianxia, so I came to inform everyone in advance."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion below. Many people showed dissatisfaction. A master craftsman could not help but say, "Last time, the Xuanting requisitioned the body of this creation that we prepared and sent back tens of thousands of us, causing us to not know the result. Why is he requisitioning it again this time? "
Someone said angrily, "Does the Xuanting not want us Tenki-in Hall to obtain the power to go up?"
However, as soon as these words were shouted, some of the master craftsmen frowned. There were even some who became vigilant, faintly feeling that the words had gone a bit overboard.
There were even some who gave him a look, indicating for him to be quiet.
Daoist Li's expression was calm as he said, "Everyone present is a person of status, virtue, and mastery of the profound art of creation. You should know that there are some things that should be said and some things that should not be said. Even more so, you should not make wild guesses."
At this time, Wei Shan stood up and looked at the crowd. As his gaze swept over them, the commotion below gradually subsided.
When no one spoke again, he said in a deep voice, "Is the Tenki-in Hall still under the Ministry of Heavenly Works? Or is it Tianxia's deployment? Xuanting clearly tells everyone that this matter involves Tianxia's safety. Is the Tenki-in Hall going to complain about this little bit of effort? Are all of you still Tianxia's people? Have you forgotten the original purpose of the Tenki-in Hall's creation? "
Someone couldn't help but complain, "But why does Xuanting insist on using the body of our Tenki-in Hall's creation? He used it last time, and now he wants to use it again? I don't believe that Xuanting doesn't have any other methods without our Tenki-in Hall. "
Wei Shan glanced at him and said, "Requisition doesn't mean that you won't make up for it. Xuanting also allowed us to try again after this, and also allowed us to record what happened this time. This is equivalent to giving us another chance. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
He looked at everyone and said, "My colleagues, I still say the same thing. Tianxia's safety is the most important thing. If there comes a day when the Tenki-in Hall needs to be destroyed for the sake of Tianxia's safety, then I will not hesitate to order you to destroy it. However, as long as Tianxia is still alive, then even if everything is destroyed, it can still be rebuilt!"
"Remember, it is the Tenki-in Hall that is related to Tianxia, and not Tianxia that is related to the Tenki-in Hall. Don't put the cart before the horse!" At this point, he continued, "I know that some people have their own ideas, and have their own thoughts. I don't care what you think, as long as I, Wei Shan, am still alive, then you better put away your schemes!"
The master craftsmen and master craftsmen all fell silent after hearing his reprimand.
Wei Shan waved his hand and said, "I've finished speaking. Everyone, don't stand here anymore. Go back to your work."
Daoist Li looked around and memorized the attitude of everyone present.
This time, he had relied on Wei Shan's personal prestige to push this matter forward. However, in the future, he had to find a way to pacify this matter. Blindly forcing it was not a good thing. He would find a way to report this matter to his superiors.
He said, "Grandmaster Wei, since this matter has been conveyed, this humble Daoist will take his leave first."
Wei Shan nodded and said, "Daoist Li, you can reply to Xuanting that this Wei will make this attempt go smoothly. I won't let Xuanting down."
Daoist Li said, "Thank you very much, Grandmaster Wei. Grandmaster Wei, this time, Xuanting sent me, Li, to find you first in hopes of pacifying everyone in the Tenki-in Hall.
I'd like to add that if Xuanting really doesn't care about the Tenki-in Hall, then there's no need for this unnecessary action. Just issue an order. Even if there's no one in the Tenki-in Hall, the master craftsmen from other places can still accomplish this task. Don't you think so, Grandmaster Wei? "
Wei Shan's heart trembled. He knew that this was not a lie. A small number of the master craftsmen involved in this matter were transferred from various continents. Moreover, the skill level of the Tenki-in Hall was constantly improving. Other things aside, the former Qingyang Tenki-in Hall Master Fang Yuzhong, who was locked up in prison, was very skilled. He was completely qualified for this task. Tianxia could still do things even if he left the headquarters.
Daoist Li said, "If there's nothing else, this humble Daoist Li will return to report."
At this time, Wei Shan said, "Daoist Li, if I may ask, who was the one who suggested this matter?"
Daoist Li looked at him and said, "There are many important matters in the court. I'm just a messenger, so how could I know? Before I came, Zhong Tingzhi asked me to tell Grandmaster Wei that Grandmaster Wei's submission last time made too many people unhappy. You should be more restrained in the future."
Wei Shan immediately understood. Solemnly, he cupped his hands and said, "Many thanks."
Daoist Li raised his sleeves and bowed in return, then walked out.
Yu Dajiang and the others returned to the inner hall together. He said with a sullen face, "There must be some Xuanting court enforcers who don't like our Tenki-in Hall. They're suppressing us everywhere. After this matter is over, I'll ask Grandmaster Wei again. If I don't get to the bottom of this, I won't be at ease."
Long Daisen said, "At least the Xuanting gave us another chance, didn't they?"
Yu Dajiang sneered and said, "That must have been fought for by the powerful people in the court who supported us. But how long can they cover for us? What the higher-ups see is just us failing time and time again, wasting manpower and resources time and time again, right? "
Long Daisen said, "Let's not care about that. Trying to break through is more important. Let's take care of the present first."
