Qin Yixin picked up a brush and dipped it in blood-red cinnabar. She wrote the words "Don't believe it" under the paper and found that familiar feeling.
She was sure that she had written it in her dream.
But what kind of dream did she have? As for the content of the dream, she couldn't recall it at all.
She tried to use her cultivation method to recall, but there seemed to be a force obstructing her, forcing her to give up. However, this only deepened her suspicions. She was a Daoist cultivator who relied on her dreams to circulate her cultivation method, yet she couldn't even completely control her own dreams. How could this be normal?
It could only be that an external force was affecting her.
Thinking of this, she also examined herself. However, in the process of circulating her cultivation method, she made a surprising discovery.
"This is …"
She suddenly felt that her mastery and understanding of the method of entering dreams had faintly improved a little. It was as if the fog that usually obstructed her had suddenly been seen through. At the same time, she even thought of how to adjust her own seal. She could remove some flaws and shortcomings so that it would be better for her to use.
She was deep in thought, and the brush in her hand swayed gently twice.
It had been quite some time since she entered the fourth chapter. Xuanxiu's cultivation had reached a bottleneck. Every little bit of improvement was very difficult. She also saw the climbing seal left behind by Zhang Yu. However, the seal was just there. There were many Xuanxiu in the internal and external continents who had entered the fourth chapter, but not many dared to truly try it.
Fortunately, there was now a lower level of the boundless realm. Many Xuanxiu had the opportunity to try it.
However, she didn't need to use such methods. Her dreamland Magical Art could allow her to experience dozens or hundreds of years in her dream. This was also a method unique to her. However, no matter how she walked, she always felt that she was lacking something. It was like climbing a high cliff, but when she reached the last few steps, she always felt that she had no strength.
In reality, her foundation was enough. What she lacked was understanding and comprehension of Daoist techniques. This was something that most Xuanxiu lacked. Generally speaking, this could only be slowly accumulated by herself, and she could only explore and comprehend by flipping through Daoist manuals.
However, the situation was different now. Daoist Kang had given all his understandings and Daoist magic to the two of them, and without reservation, he willingly gave them all to them.
A True Cultivator with two thousand years of cultivation had a lot of experience. Even if she only accepted a part of it, it was enough to make up for what she was lacking. If she could completely digest it, then it would no longer be a far-fetched dream for her to advance to a higher realm. She might even have a wider path to take when she reached the upper realm.
She didn't know all of this yet, but she was both happy and worried about her change.
Slightly sluggish footsteps came from outside the dwelling. The middle-aged man walked in again. His expression was incomparably solemn as he said, "Yixin."
Qin Yixin stood up and bowed. "Uncle."
The middle-aged man sat down at the table and said in a deep voice, "I've sorted through my memories again. I already know the identity of the person who killed Teacher."
Qin Yixin didn't say anything.
The middle-aged man reached out his hand and activated the dwelling's restriction. He said solemnly, "Teacher was harmed this time because he found out that someone was secretly colluding with a Daoist from Yuanxia, and that person … is very likely a court administrator."
He took a deep breath and said, "Regardless of whether it's for public or private reasons, we can't ignore this matter. We must seek justice for Teacher."
Qin Yixin thought about it and said, "Uncle, is everything that Teacher passed to us definitely real?"
The middle-aged man frowned, and his gaze became stern. "Yixin, are you doubting Teacher?"
Qin Yixin said, "I wouldn't dare."
The middle-aged man stared at her for a while and said, "Yixin, I know what you mean. Once you cultivate Dream Entry, you'll be suspicious of everything. I was like that in the past too.
However, you shouldn't doubt this. Have you forgotten what Teacher taught us in the past? The words that Teacher taught us are still on the stone tablet. These can't be dreams, right? "
When Daoist Kang gave the two of them benefits, he naturally wouldn't reveal too big of a flaw. The proof was that he left behind some letters for the two of them in the past. These were all real.
Moreover, these two people were indeed led onto the path of Xuanxiu by him because he foresaw that Xuanfa might flourish in the future. Who knew when it might become mainstream, so he laid down his pieces in advance. This way, he also left a path for himself to integrate into Xuanfa in the future.
In reality, he wasn't the only one who did this. After finding out that Xuanting promoted Xuanfa, a few Daoists who cultivated in seclusion also tried to find one or two secret inheritances in Xuanfa.
The middle-aged man saw that Qin Yixin didn't say anything and instead lowered her gaze. He thought she knew she was wrong, so he said earnestly, "Yixin, do you know what kind of benefits we received? Teacher practically gave us his entire life's experience and cultivation. Other than those closest to him, who would make such a sacrifice? "
After he finished speaking, he pressed a few times and said, "Perhaps Uncle's tone was a bit harsh. Yixin, think about it yourself. We must be the ones to seek justice for Teacher's matter." After he finished speaking, he stood up, turned around, and walked out.
Qin Yixin sighed softly. She still insisted that there was a problem in her heart, but she couldn't put her finger on it. However, her uncle didn't seem willing to discuss this, so she couldn't refute or contradict him. Thus, she decided to secretly think of a countermeasure and then verify it.
At this time, she suddenly felt that something was wrong. She couldn't help but glance at the place where the middle-aged man left. This uncle had always been used to taking a step with his right foot when he stood up and left, but just now … it seemed like he took a step with his left foot first?
In the Qing Qiong Dao Palace, Zhang Yu sat upright on a couch. However, his senses were spread out in all directions. Everything that happened in the void just now fell into his eyes. He even sensed Huo Heng's appearance and retreat.
Although Daoist Kang's actions were carried out through the method of peeping into dreams, when he made his move, he still sensed some changes.
Because he grasped the Wen Yin, as long as the other party's cultivation wasn't as good as his, he would immediately sense if they were plotting against him. Even if it was someone with similar cultivation, if they didn't use any concealment methods, it was still possible for him to discover them in advance.
Thus, with the Wen Yin as proof, it only took a moment for him to find Qin Yixin and her uncle.
With just a glance, he had a clear understanding of the situation between the two of them. However, he didn't interfere. The future was filled with endless variables. How could it be completely controlled by a single person?
From what he could sense, if he allowed things to continue, the final result wouldn't necessarily be completely bad. On the contrary, it could possibly be good. Even if things were really going in a direction he didn't want to see, since he saw it, he naturally had a way to turn it back.
At this time, Zhu Feng and Mei Shang were also escorting Daoist Lu, bringing him to Shouzheng Palace. Zhang Yu's Life Seal clone was constantly overseeing this place.
The two escorted Daoist Lu into the main hall, and first greeted Zhang Yu.
After the greeting, Zhu Feng said, "Shouzheng. The two of us have already been ordered to bring Lu Zhutong back. Kang Miao fell into the Chaos and turned into a Chaos monster. The two of us had no choice but to use the talisman Shouzheng gave us to eliminate him on the spot. "
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "The two of you have worked hard."
He then looked at Daoist Lu. At this moment, Daoist Lu looked like he had lost his soul. He lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him. He said, "Xuan Zun, do you have anything to say?"
Daoist Lu slowly raised his head and said with shame, "This time, I was bewitched by Daoist Kang and went to Yuanxia. It was just a moment of confusion. I hope Ting can forgive me."
Zhang Yu looked at him and said, "Just a moment of confusion? In the end, you knew that Kang Miao wanted to switch to the Dao of Chaos, but you didn't stop him. In fact, you knew that it was almost impossible, but you still had a trace of luck, so you were willing to try. Besides, even if you failed because of this, the one who died wouldn't be you. If you succeeded, you might be able to escape, right? "
Daoist Lu's expression couldn't help but change. This sentence really poked at his secret thoughts. He suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "It's my fault. I hope Ting can forgive me and give me a chance to turn over a new leaf in the future."
Zhang Yu looked at him for a moment and said, "Daoist Ming Zhou."
Daoist Ming Zhou appeared at the side and said, "What are your orders, Ting Zhi?"
Zhang Yu flicked his sleeves and said, "Take this person away and send his crimes to the Martial Court Executive for him to deal with."
Daoist Ming Zhou said, "Ming Zhou accepts the order." He looked to the side and saw a door of light opened out of nowhere. A boundless suction force appeared and sucked Daoist Lu in. Then, it closed with a bang.
At this time, Zhang Yu looked at Zhu Feng and Mei Shang and said, "The two of you did well this time. The arrival of Yuan Xia has caused a change in people's hearts. It's inevitable that some people want to rely on Yuan Xia because of their tyrannical strength. These two people won't be the last. You should pay more attention in the coming days."
The two of them acknowledged. At this time, Mei Shang said, "Ting Zhi, we recently discovered that Chang Xuan Zun from Shangchen frequently went in and out of Yuan Xia's encampment. We don't know what he's doing."
Zhang Yu said, "I understand. You two can leave first."
Zhu Feng and Mei Shang cupped their fists and left the room.
When they were outside, they didn't mention Chang Yang again. Since Zhang Yu didn't ask them to do anything to this person, it meant that he had other plans. Therefore, they didn't need to do anything. It was fine as long as they knew it in their hearts.
After the two of them left, Zhang Yu thought for a moment and wrote a letter out of thin air. He handed it to Daoist Ming Zhou and said, "Give this to the Head Steward."
Daoist Ming Zhou took it, bowed, and left with the order.
Zhang Yu looked in the direction of the sea of clouds. The cultivators who cultivated in seclusion there weren't under the Xuanting's control for a long time. Originally, according to his plan, he wanted to first interrogate them and set the rules. Then, he would let them out to work. However, when he went to Yuan Xia, his focus wasn't here. He couldn't care about this for now.
Now that he had time, he could bring up this matter in the next court meeting. However, some people might not be very happy at that time. But it didn't matter. He would wait for these people to jump out.
