An Xiaolang tidied up the things he had brought. Seeing that it was late and there was no creation to be made here, he took a bath and fell asleep.
He was very brave. Although he had encountered some problems, he was not afraid at all because he had the talisman Zhang Yu had given him to protect himself. Otherwise, he would not have dared to come to the Yujing alone, and Xuanfu would not have let him come here without worry.
However, as he was sleeping, he suddenly saw a golden light spread over the ground like frost and snow. In a moment, the entire inner room was illuminated, and a very pleasant and mysterious sound rang out.
Startled, he unconsciously rubbed his eyes and climbed up from the bed. When he turned around, he saw a deity in a long robe standing there. He vaguely saw that the deity looked somewhat similar to Zhang Yu.
"Old …"
Before he could say the word "teacher", he realized that something was wrong and suddenly stopped.
This was because during the time he had followed Zhang Yu, he had been taught a lot of mystical knowledge. One of them was that when encountering a mystical phenomenon, under the premise that he had not confirmed whether it was a friend or a foe, he must not accept the other party in his heart. For example, taking the initiative to call out or respond to the other party would lead to some very bad results.
Moreover, he felt that Zhang Yu had never been deliberately mystifying. If he wanted to see him, he would have directly called out to him. Moreover, he felt that this person looked like Zhang Yu in his heart, but it was not really the case. Especially now that he was on guard, he felt more and more that the resemblance was not real.
However, the mysterious sound did not stop. It seemed to be calling out to him, as if it wanted him to go over. He was slightly dazed and his body trembled. However, at this moment, a clear light shone from behind him. In an instant, a clear spiritual aura flowed into his mind. He quivered and woke up again.
He couldn't help but look back, and he saw a talisman that connected the heavens and the earth standing behind him. Countless profound talismans appeared on it, and as he looked at its familiar appearance, he came to a sudden realization. Isn't this the jade talisman that I carry with me? However, at this moment, it was magnified many times.
This clear light was very bright, and when it shone down, it landed on the "deity". The deity's figure became blurry and distorted. There seemed to be a miserable howl coming from the deity before it disappeared.
An Xiaolang opened his eyes and realized that he was still lying on the bed. It seemed like a dream. No, it wasn't a dream!
He reached out and took out the jade talisman that Zhang Yu had given him. He found that it was still warm, and he secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, he had been carrying the protective talisman that his teacher had given him.
Zhang Yu looked down from within the Qing Qiong Palace. He sensed that the talisman placed on An Xiaolang's body had been touched in some way. However, since it had harmed someone else, there was no need for him to get involved. He had a lot of things to do now. Most of them were external affairs, especially the recent exploration in the void. He had to keep an eye on it at all times.
Not only Yujing, but also the internal affairs. He believed that the Xuanfu Military Headquarters and the Shouzheng Military Headquarters of the various continents would be able to handle it well. He did not need to interfere too much. Therefore, he turned his gaze back and continued to sit still, waiting for news from the void.
After An Xiaolang put the jade talisman back, he looked outside the glass window and realized that the sky was very dark. It was only the middle of the night, but he had lost his desire to sleep.
He clapped his hands, and the abdomen of the creation worm that was clinging to the wall bulged. It emitted a bright light, and the entire room lit up as if it was daytime. However, he inadvertently glanced at it and was shocked. Not far from the bed, there was a pile of light gray dust. He thought about the scene in the dream just now. This seemed to be the place where the deity stood.
He thought about it. He boasted that he was a craftsman, and his future achievements would not lose to those of cultivators. However, he was always relying on his teacher's protection. Although it was not shameful, it also showed that he was not capable.
He felt that he should use it as a form of self-protection. Fortunately, he had thought about it before, so he jumped off the bed, dragged a metal box over, and pressed his hand on it. The box slowly melted, turning into a liquid that flowed to the bottom and fell into the groove under his feet. Inside, there was a metal sphere with irregular indentations. It was about the size of a fist.
This was the "observer" that he had created himself. In the past, he disdained to use it because he was confident that he was the best in terms of skill. He did not need anyone's help. However, the observer had an advantage that ordinary people did not have, and that was that it could distinguish between reality and unreality. It could distinguish between oneself and external objects.
If he had an observer, then when he encountered a dangerous situation like just now, it could remind him or take the initiative to interrupt him. It could even provide him with suitable advice.
He took out a small knife and cut his finger. Then, he took a breath and placed a finger on it. The metal sphere suddenly became warm, and the indentations also emitted a dazzling light. He could not help but close his eyes. Then, his heart moved slightly. When he opened his eyes again, a figure made of blue crystal light appeared in front of him, floating there motionlessly.
His heart moved, and he said, "You will be called 'Heart Fox'." Just as he finished speaking, a voice from the bottom of his heart responded, "Yes, Sir. Heart Fox will serve Sir."
An Xiaolang nodded with satisfaction. Very good, this observer was very obedient and did not talk back to him. As expected of someone he had created.
Because observers had different personalities, some were very outgoing, and some were very rebellious. They did not have a harmonious relationship with their master. He wanted an observer that could help him, not one that would cause trouble for him.
However, after some research, he felt that this was related to psychology. When the master was asking for the observer, if he was worried about gains and losses, or if he valued the observer too much, then this kind of situation would occur.
On the other hand, if you did not have any burdens, the observer was mostly optimistic and cheerful. At least, it would not go against its master. In other words, the more you cared about it, the more it would not listen to you. The more you did not care about it, the more it would listen to you.
And he, the observer, was created by himself. He had already made up his mind. If this guy did not listen to him, he would rather give up and create a new one. In the end, it was very obedient.
He said, "Heart Fox, keep an eye on it. Don't let anyone disturb me. Do you understand?"
Heart Fox replied calmly, "Heart Fox understands."
An Xiaolang was very satisfied and went to sleep.
This sleep lasted all the way until dawn. He was also very refreshed. In the past, he used the breathing technique to replace sleep, so he did not sleep for long. Now that he slept, it was as if every part of his body had come alive.
After washing up, he moved around a bit. However, he found that there was nothing to do. After thinking for a while, he decided to go out for a stroll.
Even though the Jade Capital's Heavenly Secrets Courtyard was located within the Jade Capital, it occupied a vast area that was almost the size of a continent city. Not only were there numerous Heavenly Secrets workshops, there were also the Mountain Water Pond Gardens and a few famed mountains and beautiful peaks. In the middle of it all was the Heavenly Secrets Academy. If one were to tour it seriously, it would take at least ten days to half a month to understand everything.
He left with two guards and went straight to the most beautiful lake in the courtyard. However, he did not notice that there were many people staring at his figure at this moment.
Yu Dajiang stood behind the glass wall and looked at him from afar. He said, "Is that the An Xiaolang?"
The craftsman behind him replied, "That's him."
Yu Dajiang shook his head. "It's a pity that those brilliant skills are in the hands of such a child." He asked again, "Has everything been arranged?"
The craftsman replied, "It has been arranged. In the next few days, we will have a young man demonstrate his skills. We will also pretend that we did not mean to insult Dongting. If he agrees, then we will challenge him to a duel in front of everyone. Young people cannot be provoked. We will try to guide him. When the duel reaches the end, he will show what he has mastered."
Yu Dajiang said, "I'll leave it to you. I only want the results."
The craftsman said, "Yu Dajiang, don't worry. As long as this child is still in the Tenki-in Hall, we will be able to get what we want from him."
An Xiaolang had been creating things in the workshop for a long time. He rarely went out. This time, he was sightseeing and felt much more relaxed. However, he did not forget to think about difficult problems. He felt that his thoughts were smooth for a long time. However, in an open-air workshop, he met a young man named Shu Shu. He was talking loudly and commenting on the creation skills of various places.
When he talked about Dongting, he felt that something was wrong. He muttered, "I came here just to talk about this? You want me to take the bait? Hmph, I want to try. Let's see if your bait is hard or not! "
He said a few words to the servant beside him and turned to leave.
After a while, the servant followed up and said, "Teacher, he agreed. He is willing to compete with you. However, he can choose what to compete in."
An Xiaolang waved his hand and said, "Tell him that he can choose. I will accompany him."
The servant acknowledged and left.
The next day, Shu Shu arrived as promised. He politely invited An Xiaolang to a clean workshop and proposed a competition. He even specially invited a highly respected master craftsman to be a witness.
In the next three days, both of them were responsible for creating a part of the creation. When the pieces were put together in the end, there was not the slightest difference. Obviously, it was a draw.
Shu Shu was very impressed with him because everything he did was arranged by the master craftsmen. The topics were prepared for him by the master craftsmen in advance. An Xiaolang did not know anything and relied purely on his own ability to create things. It was not an exaggeration to say that he had the ability of a master craftsman.
He was sincerely convinced and said, "Brother An, this little brother has benefited a lot from this competition. To tell you the truth, this time, someone purposely asked me to lead you to show your skills."
An Xiaolang blinked and said, "Why is Brother Shu suddenly willing to tell me this?"
Shu Shu smiled and said, "Because I used to think that with your ability, you wouldn't be able to grasp so much knowledge about creation. Holding on to these things in your hands instead of letting them be used is disrespectful to knowledge. You should let someone who can make more use of it grasp it, but I realized that this was a prejudice."
He said sincerely, "Brother An, your thinking is unconstrained and your skills are superb. You have even grasped creation knowledge that many people will never be able to grasp in their lifetime. These things may be able to go further in your hands. "
An Xiaolang asked curiously, "Aren't you afraid that people will take offense at you for telling me this?"
Shu Shu smiled and said, "I am not afraid. I am the same as you, Brother An. I have skills. Yujing is good, but I have other places to go. If not, I can still seek refuge with Brother An. I just don't know if Brother An will welcome me when the time comes."
An Xiaolang was overjoyed and said, "If Brother Shu is willing to come, I am more than willing. But …" He hesitated.
Shu Shu was startled and said, "What?"
An Xiaolang complained, "Can you change your name? Every time I call you, I feel like you are taking advantage of me."
Shu Shu could not help but laugh and said, "Brother An, you are a very interesting person." His expression became serious. "Then it is settled. Little brother will definitely go to Dongting."
