After Emperor Xi bade farewell to Zhang Yu, he strode back to the imperial hall with his head held high.
After changing his body, he felt that he was full of energy and ambition. Even though this body was affected by the curse, it could still hold on for three to four years. This period of time was enough for him to conquer the central region.
Next, he would head north and eliminate King Lie and the Hao Clan. Then, he would level the vassal towns and straighten out the internal affairs.
When he was the king, he had opposed the elder group's plan to remove the vassal vassals and did not hesitate to raise an army. However, when he ascended the throne, his choice was no different from the elder group's.
Because until now, the Hao Clan controlled at least two-thirds of the Hao Clan's population and land. Not only was it a serious threat to the imperial power, but it was also heavily infiltrated by the sects from beyond the heavens. Although they had great power, they could not mobilize it. The sects from beyond the heavens were allowed to roam freely outside the region and incite internal strife within the Hao Clan.
When everything was straightened out …
He looked towards the sky and revealed a cold look. That was to start with the six major sects. However, the arrangements in the sky region could be prepared now.
He seemed to have thought of something and said, "Advisor Song!"
Advisor Song had been waiting at the side. When he heard the voice, he hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Emperor Xi said, "Whatever Mister Tao needs, it has been arranged properly. Do not leave anything out. This is the most important matter."
Advisor Song said respectfully, "Your Majesty, don't worry. There will be no shortage." He continued, "The Hao Clan is rich in the four directions of the world. What can we not obtain?"
Emperor Xi scoffed and said, "The four directions of the world may not be available. However, there are none now." He pointed towards the sky and said, "In the future, I will obtain all of them!"
After Zhang Yu left the secret hall, he returned to the Ring Hall to continue his cultivation. He wanted to use all his advantages to close the gap between himself and his superior self in this aspect.
He knew that the foundation was cultivation. Although he was lacking in the transformations of Taoism, he wanted to get closer to his superior self.
Another thing was to use the long scroll to find the object behind it. If he could find it, it would undoubtedly be of great help to him. However, he deeply felt that this thing depended on fate. If he really couldn't find it in a short period of time, then he could only put this matter aside.
A few days after his seclusion, a message came from Yin Huanting in Xuntian Dao Zhang, "Mister Tao, there is an Elder Fu from Chang Sheng Sect who wants to see you. He said that he had something important to discuss with you. "
Zhang Yu thought for a moment and said, "Is it the Elder Fu who insisted on helping us?"
Although the Immortal-living Faction had sent an elder to help, this person was almost useless and refused to come forward to help at the critical moment. However, there was still a friendship between them.
However, through Daoist Pu, the emissary of Everlasting Life Faction, he also understood that there were different opinions within Everlasting Life Faction. According to Daoist Pu, Everlasting Life Faction's Sect Leader and Elder Fu had always firmly supported Mian Lu.
One advantage of the Ever-living School was that if one of its members made a show of goodwill to you, it was from the bottom of his heart, for the greater part of his conduct was calculated by himself, and he was convinced of it.
Yin Huanting replied, "It's this person."
Zhang Yu said, "Let this person go to Guangdu, I will meet him."
Yin Huanting said, "Then I will do as you said."
After the conversation with Zhang Yu ended, he immediately sent someone to inform Daoist Pu, who then sent a message to Everlasting Life Faction.
After Elder Fu received the message, although he felt that this matter was a little difficult, he still decided to go personally. Thus, he bid farewell to the Everlasting Life Faction's Sect Leader and took the concealed flying boat to Guangdu.
After the cultivators of the Six Factions attacked Guangdu, the security here was increased by more than one level. Fortunately, he was good at deduction, so he wasn't stopped by the patrol fleet and smoothly approached Guangdu.
However, when he got closer, he had to be more cautious. Although Emperor Xi still set the capital at Yangdu, Guangdu was also important as its rear. If he wanted to enter, he had to use some special methods.
Just as he was thinking, he heard a voice, "Is this Elder Fu of Everlasting Life Faction?"
Elder Fu was shocked. He turned around and saw a young Daoist wrapped in jade fog and starlight standing there. His aura was high and ethereal, as if he was a real immortal. Moreover, with one look, he could tell that this person's aura was reflected here, and he looked no different from a real person. Elder Fu couldn't help but admire his skills.
He calmed down and bowed. "Are you Mister Tao, Fellow Daoist? I am Fu Guoyi, an elder of Everlasting Life Faction. I believe you have already told me? "
Zhang Yu returned the greeting and said, "I have heard of you before. I have to thank Elder Fu for helping me time and time again."
Elder Fu said, "I'm ashamed. To tell you the truth, we helped Mianlu because we were selfish. We just wanted to borrow your influence. " “
Zhang Yu said, "Elder Fu is honest. However, there are some things in this world that don't need to be based on one's intentions. "
Elder Fu glanced at him and couldn't help but nod. His expression also relaxed a little. He said sincerely, "Then I shall be frank. I took the liberty to look for Mister Tao because I want to find a way out for my Everlasting Life Faction. My faction also has some small tricks that can see the future. It's all on your side. Therefore, I have no choice but to shamelessly ask Mister Tao for help."
Zhang Yu said, "Elder Fu, if you have any thoughts, just say it."
Elder Fu deliberated for a while before saying, "Back then, my generation hid outside the heavens to avoid the Hao Clan's punitive expedition. All these years, the various sects have done everything possible to disrupt the Hao Clan from the inside. They supported their relatives so that the Hao Clan wouldn't have time to care about us. However, they lost their minds like this. After hundreds of years, they really didn't improve much. Many people are already used to hiding outside the heavens.
Although the Hao Clan is in internal strife, their art of creation has never fallen behind. On the contrary, they are constantly improving. The power of the upper echelons has long surpassed mine. Once the Hao Clan is unified, it will be the time for the six sects to be destroyed. It's just that there is an opportunity amidst the danger. Seeing all of you Celestial Beings, I see a way out. "
He bowed to Zhang Yu again and said, "I would like to ask Fellow Daoist for a favor. I would like to formally form an alliance with your side in order to seek protection."
Zhang Yu glanced at him. The Everlasting Sect was indeed worthy of being called the Everlasting Sect. Although he didn't know the relationship between them and Emperor Xi, they could make a judgment based on the mysteries of heaven.
At this moment, Elder Fu spoke again, "Of course, we won't let your side work for free. If your side is willing to agree, our sect leader is willing to perform two great shows of heaven's mysteries for everyone."
Zhang Yu asked, "What is the 'great show of heaven's mysteries'?"
Elder Fu explained. The so-called 'great show of heaven's mysteries' was the Everlasting Sect's most important method of divination. There was almost nothing that they couldn't predict.
This method was established when the Everlasting Sect was established. It was created by the founder of the Everlasting Sect to calculate the mysteries of heaven. There were six great shows of heaven's mysteries, which were combined with the fate of the sect. Once the six shows were used up, the Everlasting Sect would be destroyed. Not a single person or even a single disciple would exist in this world.
From the time the Everlasting Sect was established until now, this method had already been used three times.
Elder Fu didn't hide anything and said, "The first time was when the founder was establishing the sect. He calculated when the Everlasting Sect would be destroyed."
Zhang Yu's interest was piqued and he asked, "Oh? Did the founder of your sect obtain the result? "
Elder Fu said, "To be honest with you, Mister Tao, the founder had calculated at that time and knew the answer. However, the founder then realized that he had no way of telling others about it. This was because whenever he wanted to tell someone other than himself about it, he would lose this memory. Later on, the founder only left behind a sentence, reminding the descendants not to be stingy with the great show of heaven's mysteries if they were in a perilous situation."
Zhang Yu asked, "Did the founder of your sect use this to give guidance to the descendants?"
Elder Fu smiled and said, "What the founder meant was to use these deductions as soon as possible and not be stingy with them. This way, even if the sect was really destroyed, it wouldn't be a waste."
Zhang Yu couldn't help but feel amused and then praised, "The founder of your sect went from gaining and losing to not caring about gains and losses. His cultivation must have improved."
Elder Fu couldn't help but look at him in surprise and couldn't help but say, "Mister Tao was right. Not long after, the founder said that his cultivation had improved greatly and went into seclusion to cultivate." At this point, he sighed and said, "But the founder was also like the other sect leaders. After that, he disappeared without a trace."
Zhang Yu's eyes moved slightly and said, "I've also heard about the disappearance of the various cultivators. What is your sect's opinion on this?"
Elder Fu said, "We don't know the truth about this either. However, the various sects have a saying that the various seniors have 'gone beyond this world, to the heavens beyond the heavens'."
Zhang Yu asked, "Could it be that your sect hasn't made any deductions about this?"
Elder Fu said, "I won't lie to you, Fellow Daoist. The second Tianji Great Performance was for this reason. We asked about the founder's whereabouts. However, after having this thought, we found that the Tianji Great Performance was inexplicably missing one time. It seemed that it had been calculated, but it was all lost. Since then, we didn't dare to have this thought again."
He sighed. "The third time was to calculate a way out for the various sects. However, the other five sects owed me a favor, so I also gained a lot of benefits."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly. Elder Fu said it calmly, but in fact, he was telling him that even if the Tianji Great Performance was willing to do two deductions for them, he might not necessarily get the answer he wanted. Perhaps there were some things that were useless even if he knew.
This was very sincere, and all he wanted was for the sect to continue existing. To be honest, to him, this was not difficult to do now.
He thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "I can promise your sect. As long as your sect doesn't wantonly start disputes with others in the future, then I can mediate."
Elder Fu was overjoyed when he heard this. He bowed and said, "Thank you, Mister!" After a pause, he said a little awkwardly, "It's just that there are some people in our sect who do deductions for the other sects. However, Mister needs to know that it's not our intention …"
Zhang Yu didn't care about this. Whether Everlasting Life Sect was betting on both sides or if they really couldn't control the cultivators in their sect, these had nothing to do with them. These were things that the other party needed to solve themselves.
At this time, he said, "Elder Fu, how many years have you cultivated?"
Elder Fu sighed. "I've cultivated in vain for 500 years."
Zhang Yu said, "I have a question. Elder Fu, do you know who was the person with the most profound cultivation in the past among the various sects? "
Elder Fu thought for a moment, then stroked his beard and said, "I don't know about things that happened too long ago. However, if you want to talk about the person with the deepest cultivation, I only know of one person, and that is … Qing Shuo Shangzhen."
