After Cai Li and Zhang Yu finished their discussion, Cai Li left satisfied.
He felt that it wasn't that Zhang Yu and the others were unwilling to join Yuan Xia, but they were worried about how Yuan Xia would treat them. However, this showed that the two sides could still be discussed.
This problem was actually easy to solve. As he said, if Zhang Yu was willing to join them, he was willing to personally preside over the Great Multiplication Ceremony.
However, this benefit could only be given to a small number of people because it not only required a lot of precious materials, but it could only be presided over by the Sect Leader, Clan Elder, or Clan Descendant. Other than some people who really needed to be roped in, the others were not worthy of him condescending.
When he returned to his own pavilion, he ordered his personal attendant, "Go and invite Fang Shangzhen here. Tell him I have something I need him to do." The personal attendant bowed and went to pass on the order.
At this very moment, a flying boat was drifting in the void. It was gradually approaching a huge berth that was as big as a planet.
Daoist Xing was standing in the slightly narrow main cabin of the flying boat. He looked ahead, but his expression was somewhat gloomy.
After they failed to stop Zhang Yu, they should have retreated early. However, Yuan Xia's giant boat was destroyed, so they didn't have a suitable transportation device to use.
Although most of them could cross the void with their mana, it was impossible for them to use such a method. The Hall of Origin was a place that represented dignity and law. If other sects did so, they would be ridiculed and the prestige of the Hall of Origin would be reduced. Moreover, the World Ways would definitely make a big fuss about it.
Thus, they expended a great deal of effort to find two flying boats that were still in relatively good condition and used them to return. However, for some reason, the two flying boats were unable to be steered for no reason halfway through the journey.
Therefore, someone suggested that they use their own magic power to propel the flying boats forward and pretend to be steered back. The cultivator who followed Daoist Xing saw his gloomy expression and immediately reprimanded him for this stupid idea.
In the end, Daoist Xing had no choice but to order the people accompanying him to refine a flying boat out of thin air. Because of this, they were delayed for some time. After more than twenty days, they finally arrived at this moorland. Moreover, in order to avoid losing face this time, they concealed the boat and silently entered the moorland.
However, they did not notice that a speck of dust was attached to the corner of one of the accompanying people's robes.
At this moment, Zhang Yu was sitting on the stone platform, observing the movements of the group of people through this speck of dust.
That day, after he used the "Heavenly Seal Crossing Fate" technique to shatter the giant boat, he also left behind this speck of dust condensed from his heart light. This Heart Light was equivalent to a simple clone, and it could observe the actions of this person.
If Daoist Xing found out, it wouldn't be a big deal. He could find another opportunity in the future. If he wasn't discovered, he could take the opportunity to take a look at the situation of these people.
He didn't expect to be able to understand the mysteries of the Yuan Upper Hall through these people. He only wanted to gain a deeper understanding of Yuan Xia.
As soon as the speck of dust fell, all kinds of sounds and lights came one after another, all transmitted to his senses. In just a short moment, he understood the general situation here.
The place Daoist Xing was currently at was a place called "Yuan Dun" in the Yuan Upper Hall.
The so-called "Yuan Dun" was actually a moorland built by the Yuan Upper Hall at the weak points of the various world dao. At the same time, it was a convenient place for the various Daoists of the Yuan Upper Hall to patrol and rest.
However, this place was not welcomed by the various world dao. Very few cultivators of the various world dao and their subordinates from the outside world came here because this was essentially an attempt to invade the authority of the various world dao.
The Yuan Dun was divided into two levels. The upper level was the residence of the Daoists and could be called a place of immortal spirit. All kinds of things that the upper level cultivators needed could be found there, and even the giant Yuanxia boat could be refined there.
The lower level was filled with low-level cultivators and ordinary people with no cultivation base.
The various world dao also had their own people, but they were all nurtured in the world dao. After many generations, they were greatly different from the people of the outside world. Therefore, the people of the outside world had long been abandoned.
However, the Yuan Upper Hall took in these people. A few of the more talented ones could be promoted as disciples or refined into weapons. From then on, they could be used as tools by the Yuan Upper Hall.
Most of them had been providing all kinds of backup support for Yuan Xia's conquest of the outside world for a long time. Whether it was the flying boat used by ordinary cultivators, the pills they consumed, or the various palaces and buildings, they were all made by these low-level cultivators who had no hope of improving themselves. Below them were the people with even lower statuses. These people were at the bottom of the hierarchy and were being exploited.
The speck of dust didn't follow Daoist Xing and the others to the upper level. Instead, it broke away and drifted to the lower level.
When it was in the void, there were dust fragments everywhere. Most of Daoist Xing's attention was focused on the outside, so it wasn't easy to be discovered. However, if it went to the upper level of the Yuan Dun. That place must be protected, and it would be very difficult to enter.
On the other hand, the lower level was the place that Yuan Xia paid the least attention to. It was impossible for them to spend effort to protect these low-level cultivators. It was easier for the speck of dust to remain here.
After entering the lower level and looking around for a while, he saw that there were many tall buildings with various styles mixed in. It seemed messy and disorderly, but in fact, it was full of vitality. It seemed that cultivators from different realms had gathered here.
However, every time Yuan Xia conquered a world, all the low-level living beings would be destroyed along with the world. Therefore, these people were most likely the disciples of the cultivators of the outside world who had submitted to Yuan Xia. However, Bi Yu and the others had previously said that the various world dao didn't allow cultivators of the outside world to pass on their disciples. This seemed to contradict this.
However, after the speck of dust received more sounds and lights, this answer was explained.
The various world dao didn't allow cultivators of the outside world who had submitted to them to pass on the Dao privately. However, the Yuan Upper Hall allowed it. This wasn't because the Yuan Upper Hall was tolerant, but because the Yuan Upper Hall wanted to compete with the various world dao for authority. Therefore, they adopted different methods.
Zhang Yu sensed everything through the speck of dust and carefully observed the situation of Yuan Xia's lower level. He also found something more interesting here.
It was an enormous pillar-shaped formation artifact that existed at the lowest level of the Yuan Dun. He learned from the people here that this artifact was called the Dun Ding. Ordinary Daoist cultivators could actually use this artifact to refine the formation artifacts they needed, and there was no need for them to refine it themselves.
According to Yuan Xia's own evolution, it was unlikely for such things to appear. It was most likely a technique obtained from a destroyed world.
However, even though Yuan Xia had this thing, he saw that Yuan Xia didn't make good use of it.
This wasn't because Yuan Xia was short-sighted. Because even if he had the technique to refine formation tools with formation tools, the upper level's boundary wasn't that easy to break. Therefore, no matter how many formation tools he had, it wouldn't be of help to the upper level's battle. Naturally, it wouldn't be valued.
In fact, even if it was possible to break through the upper level's boundary, Yuan Xia didn't take the initiative to push forward before encountering a stronger enemy. Instead, he would be vigilant and suppress it to prevent more variables from appearing.
Even within Tianxia, after experiencing the evolution of Shen Xia and Gu Xia, there was still a group of Daoist cultivators who stubbornly adhered to the old ways, let alone Yuanxia, an extremely conservative world region that wished to restrain the Heavenly Dao.
However, he secretly made a mental note of this.
Yuan Xia didn't pay attention to this technique now. However, if he were to fight with Tianxia in the future, and once Tianxia gained the upper hand, he might pick up this technique to save himself. At that time, it might bring some trouble to Tianxia. This must be taken seriously and prepared for as soon as possible.
As he was thinking, he suddenly sensed something in his heart. He turned his attention back and opened his eyes. He saw Yan Yuming walking down the stage and said, "Teacher, there's a Fang Shangzhen outside. He said that he's here on behalf of Cai Shangzhen."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Invite him in."
Not long after, a Daoist in a red robe walked in. This person looked to be about twenty years old. He was tall and had narrow eyes and a long nose. His skin was surrounded by a glistening light. He bowed and said, "I'm Fang Yinan. Zhang Shangzhen is too polite."
Zhang Yu returned the bow and said, "Fang Shangzhen is too polite." After the bow, he invited this person to take a seat.
Fang Yinan took a few steps forward and sat in front of him. He said, "Cai Shangzhen told me a few days ago that Zhang Shangzhen asked if he could use the Great Multiplication Ritual. He asked me to explain it to Zhang Shangzhen."
As he said this, he looked at Zhang Yu and said with a slightly dissatisfied tone, "However, I would like to ask, if Zhang Shangzhen didn't trust Yuan Xia, why did he come to ask for Yuan Xia's help? We should have trusted Yuan Xia before he treated you with sincerity. "
Zhang Yu looked at him and said, "If that's the case, Liu Shangzhen really trusted Yuan Xia back then?"
Fang Yinan said matter-of-factly, "Of course. Back then, I joined Yuan Xia because I trusted him wholeheartedly. Yuan Xia was willing to accept us. How precious was that opportunity? How could he have any doubts? "
At this moment, he revealed a look of disdain and contempt. "It was precisely because I didn't trust Yuan Xia that my fellow disciples either died or were only worthy of a Great Multiplication Ritual. Otherwise, they could only swallow Tribulation Avoidance Pills."
Zhang Yu glanced at him and raised his sleeve. With a clatter, countless chess pieces floated over from the distant platform and mixed together in front of the two of them. He said, "Fellow Daoist Fang, may I ask for a round of chess?"
There were some things that couldn't be asked. Moreover, he felt that he might not be able to get a truthful response from this person. However, he could observe and figure it out through the exchange of chess pieces. Moreover, through the game of chess, they could force out some information that the other party was unwilling to reveal.
Fang Yinan raised his chin slightly and said, "Since Zhang Shangzhen is interested, I'll play a round with you." He did not stand on ceremony. With a flick of his sleeve, he separated the chess pieces and made an inviting gesture. He said, "Zhang Shangzhen, please."
