Zhang Yu thought for a while, then left a clone here. With a thought, he turned into a beam of starlight and returned to the upper levels, back to the Qing Qiong Dao Palace.
In the inner palace, with a thought, the stone slabs that he obtained from the clues left by his adoptive father floated out and revolved around him.
According to his current level and his understanding of these ancient words, combined with the Supreme Stone Slabs left behind by the Moqi God Clan and Iparr, if he combined these stone slabs, he could undoubtedly create a person in one go. It was enough to raise the person from the level of an ordinary person to a mystical being.
From the looks of it, this was equivalent to making an agreement with the Supreme. It was not like Moqi who simply stole the power of the Supreme. The power that this person obtained had no choice but to return in the end.
Furthermore, the powers bestowed by these stone slabs had yet to truly transcend the Upper Realm, and were not immortal. Therefore, even if the Utmost Beings had Divinity in them, they would not pay attention to them at all. Once the person or living being who had obtained the powers died, everything would naturally return to the Utmost Beings.
But at the same time, he noticed that even if he used these stone slabs, even if this path was limited, it did not mean that everyone would be able to adapt to it. At least, the few stone slabs that he found completely corresponded to him in the past. In other words, if it was someone else, they would not be able to use it.
It could be seen that back then, his adoptive father might have considered that he would not be able to continue down the path of cultivation, so he gave him such a choice. It should not involve too much in itself.
It was just that his adoptive father was able to use the Supreme Stone slabs accurately and skillfully. With such an ability, it was obvious that he was related to the Supreme. And to be recognized by Master Xun, it meant that his level was not low. It was just that no matter whether it was Iparr or the Moqi God Clan, there were no clues about this person. Yet, he had mastered the use of the Supreme. Then, his adoptive father might have mastered even more ancient knowledge, or he might be an even more ancient person.
He was not surprised by this point. When his adoptive father had led him on this path, he had already guessed it.
However, it did not mean that an even more ancient civilization or individual would be enemies with the Tianxia. For example, Yi Shen was now living in the world as an ordinary Tianxia citizen, and Tianxia could also accept her existence.
Besides, it wasn't hard for him to feel that his adoptive father didn't have any ill intentions towards him. He really did take care of him like a real junior.
But at the same time, in his memories, this person had always been searching for or hiding from something. Although he had never said it explicitly, he could sense it.
After thinking for a while, he changed his mind and created an avatar. After he left the Dao Palace, a golden light descended. After a while, it landed on a high platform.
Daoist Zhan Kong was sitting here. Naturally, this was only a clone he left behind. His main body had already left. Seeing that Zhang Tingzhi had arrived, he stood up and cupped his fists. He smiled and said, "Zhang Tingzhi is too polite. Is there anything I can do for you?"
Zhang Yu also bowed and said, "I'm just here to ask Fellow Daoist Zhan Kong about something."
Daoist Zhan Kong understood and said, "Is it about the matters of the Yuandu Sect?" Zhang Yu, as the Head of the Court, had more information channels than him. The only thing he could specifically ask about was the matters of the Yuandu Sect.
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "May I ask Fellow Daoist Zhan Kong, after Master Xun left, did he ever return?"
Daoist Zhan Kong pondered and said, "I'm not too sure about senior apprentice-brother's matters. After he left the last time, he never returned, nor did he reply. However …" He said slowly, "Before senior apprentice-brother left, he seemed to have a chat with the Head of the Court. If Zhang Tingzhi wants to know more, why don't you ask the Head of the Court?"
Zhang Yu changed his mind. It seemed like this teacher had something special to do. Daoist Zhan Kong wasn't being perfunctory this time. If he wasn't the Head of the Court, he probably wouldn't have told him.
However, this old Daoist was really cunning. He must have known about this long ago. In the past, he didn't mention it. Now that he saw that the Head of the Court was about to step down and Chen Tingzhi was about to become the Head of the Court, he would continue to advance. That was why he mentioned this.
He nodded and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Zhan Kong."
Daoist Zhan Kong said, "Head of the Court, you're being too serious. I don't know much either. I'm not sure if I can help you."
Seeing that it was difficult to ask anything else, Zhang Yu's clone bid farewell to Zhan Kong and left. He returned to his main body and began to arrange for the void exploration.
Currently, there were only Zhu Feng and Mei Shang in the outer layer. Their strength was far from enough. This was because the two of them were originally in charge of defense. They relied on the Yuandu Xuantu to barely take care of the 28 constellations. Now that there were four more regions outside, the burden they had to bear was even heavier. They couldn't even go out to investigate the places where the evil gods gathered.
Although the Shouzheng Palace was in the midst of expansion, it was mainly targeted at the middle and lower levels. The strength of the upper levels didn't change much.
Currently, the best way was to drag some people out of the prison. These people had the motivation to atone for their crimes. Furthermore, those who were locked up wouldn't be too weak. They could be used.
There was also the Daoist cultivators in the Qiong Yunhai. As the Head of the Court, as long as Xuanting allowed it, he could naturally deploy people from there. However, although these people had cultivation, they couldn't be counted on to contribute much. If they were like Jiao Yao and didn't do anything, then it was already considered good.
Thinking about Jiao Yao, he nodded. This matter could be left to him to handle. Hence, he called for Ming Zhou and instructed, "Daoist Ming Zhou, please invite Daoist Jiao Yao over."
Just as he decided to start searching the void, in the depths of the void, a completely silver star slowly appeared. The neat and straight grooves on the surface of the Earth Star slowly moved in all directions, revealing a crystal jade-colored inner shell.
And further inside, a man and a woman were sensing the inner layer through this outer shell. The two of them wore thin black robes with silver patterns. Their faces were handsome, and their entire bodies were like beautiful and exquisite works of art.
The woman looked at the black spots that appeared on the crystal jade-like surface and said, "Someone found the 'Spiritual Domain' on the Surface Continent. Not only was it destroyed, but the Supreme Covenant left behind was also taken away. It should be something done by the ruler of this era." She said in disbelief, "The rulers of the past have never done such a thing. The ruler of this era must be very powerful."
The man said, "No matter if they are powerful or not, this has nothing to do with us. This is also not something we should care about. We only need to be responsible for recording everything. When the Supreme Emissary arrives and hands it over, we will have completed our mission."
The woman frowned and said, "But it is very difficult to gather information about the ruler of this era. The god they worship is not the Supreme Being, but an existence that we are completely unfamiliar with. The people we sent couldn't obtain anything useful. Right now, we can only deduce based on what has already happened. “
Due to the difference in strength and understanding, even if they used certain tools, they couldn't understand Tianxia. They could only record what had already happened.
The man said, "This is the only way now. The Supreme Emissary has disappeared for too long. We can only use these old tools of the past. It is already good that we still know some things. The Supreme Aura will become more and more frequent, and the Supreme Being will return sooner or later. We only need to wait …"
As he spoke, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He saw a huge strange eyeball sticking close to them, staring at them. And in other places, countless sticky tentacles stretched out from the void, wrapping around the silver star and trying to drag it into the abyss-like void.
The man said irritably, "It's these evil gods again. They always come to disturb us."
The woman said nervously, "We have been out for too long. They have targeted us."
The man sighed and said, "Then let's go back. Next time, without the Supreme Being's oracle, we shouldn't come out. It is too dangerous outside. It is not something we can handle."
The woman nodded.
Under the duo's control, the silver spherical metal shell closed up once more, isolating the Evil God outside and gradually disappearing into the void.
At this moment, in the Qing Xuan Dao Palace, Jiao Yao came to the hall. He bowed to Zhang Yu who was sitting on the main seat and said, "Greetings, Tingzhi."
Zhang Yu said, "I called you here today because I have something to ask you to do. Is it convenient for you?"
Jiao Yao quickly said, "Of course, of course." He said again, "I will do my best for you."
Zhang Yu glanced at him. The so-called 'attentiveness' meant that he didn't make any mistakes and couldn't be picked on. Then, he wouldn't expect anything else. But for Jiao Yao, this was enough.
He raised his hand, and the deity standing by the side handed a scroll to Jiao Yao. He said, "I still have many things to do here, so I won't keep you here. Please go back and read it carefully."
Jiao Yao replied with a 'yes'. He put away the scroll, bowed, and left. Once he was outside, he opened the scroll and read it for a moment. He sighed in his heart and said, "Zhang Tingzhi is using this old dragon to his death."
But he still had a junior who was a student of the Qing Xuan Dao Palace. Although he used this opportunity to build a relationship with Zhang Yu and had a foothold, he could not avoid being used.
He put away the scroll and sighed for a while. Just as he was about to return to his station, he sensed something and turned around. He saw a Daoist child riding a carriage towards him. When the child approached him, he cupped his hands and bowed to him. "Greetings, Exalted Martial Artist Jiao."
Jiao Yao glanced at him and said, "You are under Daoist Shen, right?"
The Daoist child said, "Yes, my master invites Exalted Jiao over for a chat."
Jiao Yao said, "Chess again? Please tell Daoist Shen that I have been sent by the Qing Xuan Dao Palace. I have no time to be carefree. "He sighed and said in a serious tone," I have no choice, I have no choice. "
With that, he turned into a beam of light and left. Not too far away, he saw that the Daoist child did not follow him. He thought to himself, "I, Old Dragon, am very clear about what you guys are planning. I, Old Dragon, am not going to get involved in this mess. I won't stick my head out either." He pondered for a moment and decided not to return to his station. Instead, he flew straight into the void.
