Since Mountain Lord Deng Jing had personally written the order, the cultivators of the Glazed Jade Heavenly Palace and Sunrise Peak didn't think too much about it and followed suit.
In any case, the guardians of the three sects were all cultivators. Since they were dealing with a heavenly creation and had solid evidence, there was no reason for them to hesitate.
The three sects moved very quickly and directly entered the Tenki-in Hall. However, because they suspected that there was a unique mystical power hidden in the Tenki-in Hall, they moved very discreetly this time. Almost no one in the Tenki-in Hall noticed their arrival.
At the same time, a cultivator from Whitesoul Mountain entered Wei Shan's office and politely said, "Grandmaster Wei, Whitesoul Mountain has sent word that they are preparing to conduct a thorough investigation of the Tenki-in Hall. We hope that Grandmaster Wei can cooperate as we agreed."
Wei Shan said in a deep voice, "I will summon all the grandmasters in the Tenki-in Hall to cooperate with your actions."
Previously, he had met with Nie Xinying, who had personally come to visit him. From the latter, he had learned about the internal affairs of the Heavenly Secrets Courtyard that even he did not know about. After hearing some of these things, he was extremely shocked. Therefore, he had made up his mind to clean up the internal affairs of the Heavenly Secrets Courtyard so that the Heavenly Secrets Courtyard would not be implicated by some people.
He had already spread the news a few days ago that he was going to hold a meeting to discuss the matter of the creation's shell. Even if he summoned all the grandmasters now, it wouldn't be too sudden.
As long as all the grandmasters in the Tenki-in Hall were gathered together and cut off from the lower levels, the people below wouldn't be able to cause a ruckus even if they sensed something was amiss.
After the cultivator from Whitesoul Mountain left, Wei Shan said to the cultivator protecting him, "Fu Daoist, I'll have to trouble you. If there's anything wrong, I'll have to trouble you to arrest them. Don't worry too much."
The Daoist bowed solemnly and left the room.
At this moment, one of Wei Shan's trusted students asked worriedly, "Teacher, our Tenki-in Hall is being searched by these Daoist cultivators. Will the Tenki-in Hall be affected?" There must be something wrong with Phecda HQ. Recently, even he had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he was worried that the Tenki-in Hall would be suppressed too much.
Wei Shan said in a low voice, "It's always better to dig out the rotten flesh than to let the whole body rot. What the Tenki-in Hall needs now is not radical, but steady."
Xuanting had already decided to strengthen Shouzheng's base, but some people were still making trouble. This was very abnormal. Even he, who didn't know much about politics, could see that Xuanting's move was obviously to deal with some enemies. Would Xuanting allow internal problems to arise at this time? That was definitely not allowed.
At this moment, some people in the Tenki-in Hall were making trouble for no good reason, or perhaps they were doing it for some other purpose. This was the main reason why Wei Shan had made up his mind.
He sighed inwardly and walked to the side. He picked up a jade statue that he hadn't seen in a long time and wiped it gently with a cloth. He said, "It's been a long time since I cleaned it. It's time to clean it up."
One summer after he had gathered the craftsmen, the craftsmen from Phecda HQ and Yikong Continent arrived one after another. An old man walked slowly down the straight path to the main hall after a careful inspection at the entrance. However, he seemed to be thinking about something and walked very slowly.
At this time, a servant approached him and whispered, "Teacher, there's no movement. The guards of the Tenki-in Hall are all in their original positions. There's no sign of movement. Everything in Yujing City is normal. This time, they're probably here to discuss the matter of the Body of Creation."
The old man didn't deny it and said, "I understand."
He continued to walk forward, but when he was about to reach the main hall, he suddenly stopped. The servant asked, "Teacher, what's the matter?"
The old man said in a deep voice, "Go and tell Grandmaster Wei that something came up and I'm afraid I can't participate in the meeting."
The servant was startled and said, "Yes, I'll go and tell Grandmaster Wei."
The old man nodded and walked back without hesitation. His footsteps were much faster than when he came. When he was about to walk out of the main road, a young lieutenant stood there and asked with a smile, "Elder Xu, where are you going?"
Elder Xu looked up and said, "I forgot to bring something and need to go back and get it."
The young lieutenant seemed to understand and said, "Grandmaster Wei is waiting for you. Why don't you tell me what it is and I'll go and get it for you?"
Elder Xu shook his head and said, "This is a very important thing. It's not convenient for me to borrow other people's hands. It's better for me to go personally."
The young lieutenant was surprised and said, "Is that so? Then I won't be able to stop you. "He waved his hand and said," Make way. "The armored soldiers on both sides made way for him.
Xu Lao nodded and walked out. He didn't encounter any obstructions along the way. He didn't find any problems until he returned to his residence. At this time, he felt that he was overthinking. However, he still felt that something was wrong.
After sitting in the main hall for a while, he said to the servant, "Watch the outside and don't let anyone in." The servant acknowledged respectfully.
He walked into the inner room and took out a creation that was shaped like a white pebble from a hidden niche. He held it and prayed for a moment. Then, a ray of light shone from the pebble and condensed into the figure of a God.
He knelt down naturally. But when he was about to say something, the God suddenly distorted and he was in a trance. Then, he suddenly opened his eyes and found himself sitting in a side hall.
He recognized this place. It was near the meeting hall, and there were a few cultivators standing around. Among them, a woman in colorful clothes was looking at him with interest.
He suddenly realized that he did not go back after he arrived near the meeting hall. Everything that happened after that was an illusion! He was shocked and angry and said, "How can you do this to me?"
There was a trace of disbelief in his voice. He was a master craftsman! Master craftsmen were immune to magic attacks. This was protected by the laws of Tianxia. Even if he was guilty, they could not do anything to him before he was punished. It was also because of this that he dared to act at ease in the illusion without any suspicion.
The woman in colorful clothes laughed and said, "If you are not convinced, you can write a letter."
Elder Xu's face was gloomy and he did not say anything. At this point, even if he wrote a letter, it would be useless. He had already been exposed.
In fact, under normal circumstances, the Yujing Guard could not directly use magic on master craftsmen. Not to mention master craftsmen, even cultivators who used magic on ordinary people for no reason would be severely punished. Tianxia's laws were very strict.
However, there was a prerequisite. It did not involve the safety of the people of Tianxia, and it had to be approved by Yuan Shangtai and the Yujing Guard Xuan Shou.
When Yuan Shangtai and the others learned that there was a problem in the Tenki-in Hall, they took it very seriously. Not only did they allow a thorough investigation, but they also ordered the Yujing army to be on high alert in case of any accidents.
In just half a summer after the order was issued, the entire city was completely under the control of the Chao Mansion and the various guards. At this time, it was very easy to investigate and arrest anyone. If someone took the opportunity to cause trouble, no matter who they were, they could directly suppress them.
This time, they directly used illusions to prevent the person behind the scenes from using illusions to conceal themselves. This was using illusions to suppress illusions. No matter how they tried to conceal themselves, unless they directly erased everyone's memories, they could always use magic to mobilize the memories in the depths of their consciousness.
In order to ensure success, Nie Xinying also invited a Xuanxiu from the Iluo Continent who was skilled in illusions.
In fact, if it were not for the fact that many things in the Tenki-in Hall could not withstand the power of magic and could not be directly trapped with formations, they would not have to go through so much trouble. Now, many cultivators were sent to investigate suspicious places one by one.
Although the Tenki-in Hall occupied a large area, it was not that troublesome in the eyes of cultivators who could fly, observe, and quickly transmit information. Almost overnight, all the suspicious places were searched and the suspicious people were interrogated with divine abilities.
After dawn, the cultivators sent everything that they had sorted out to Nie Xinying's desk.
The woman in colorful clothes explained in front of Nie Xinying, "Senior Sister, we have basically found out that there is a person called 'Supreme One'. Although many people claim that this person is in the Tenki-in Hall and is a master craftsman in the Tenki-in Hall, and many people have seen him before, we have investigated and found that this person has never really existed. It is like an illusion. We suspect that one of the master craftsmen may have been bewitched by EsGod, or he may have believed in a god that he should not believe in."
After Nie Xinying read the statements and dossiers that they handed over, she said calmly, "Have you ever thought about how EsGod got into the Tenki-in Hall? And how did the power of magic flourish in the Tenki-in Hall without disturbing those 'germs' at all? "
The woman in colorful clothes said in distress, "We are also looking for the reason."
After the creation of the secret of the heavens was completed, it could be used by cultivators and could also come into contact with and bear all kinds of power. However, at the beginning of the creation, especially the 'germs', they were very sensitive to the power of magic. Even the gaze of cultivators or EsGod would be destroyed. However, many of the craftsmen who were creating said that they had come into contact with that 'Supreme One'.
Even if it was an illusion, it was impossible. After all, illusions were a kind of magic power. Therefore, they suspected that this might be caused by some kind of drug or illusion that affected one's mind.
Nie Xinying said, "I don't think so."
The woman in colorful clothes said with interest, "Senior Sister, what do you think?"
Nie Xinying pondered for a moment and said, "I remember that Shouzheng's base once sent a letter to remind me that according to the theory of the era, if not for me, Tianxia, the God of Spirituality should have been in power. The so-called God of Spirituality is also a god of faith, formed by people's faith." She raised her head and said calmly, "However, if this so-called 'Supreme One' is a god of faith formed by the faith of the craftsmen, then everything makes sense."
The woman in colorful clothes widened her eyes in surprise and said, "Senior Sister, this is … the god of faith of the heavens?"
At this moment, a cultivator hurried in and said with a slightly nervous and urgent expression, "Senior Sister, our fellow disciples have made a new discovery. I'm afraid Senior Sister needs to take a look."
He walked over and placed a portrait on the table. Then, he slowly opened it. Suddenly, the figure of a Daoist who was glowing with light appeared. His face was a little blurry, but when the portrait was opened, the Daoist seemed to come alive. He looked at them with emotionless eyes.
