It took the people of the Gully Realm more than two months to roughly tour the 13 upper continents in the inner layer. However, they didn't have time to visit the newly established middle and lower continents.
In addition to these territories, they also made a special trip to the Dongting Prefecture.
This was the place where Zhang Yu once served as the Head of Mystery, so it had a special meaning to them. The Gully Realm was what it was today because of Zhang Yu's teachings. After learning about the past of the Dongting Prefecture, they felt the same way about the Dongting Prefecture.
The Dongting Prefecture didn't disappoint them. Although it was a remote place in the sea, it had the Sky Path Flying Boat, which made it very convenient to travel to the continent. Moreover, the prefecture had only been established for a few years. Coupled with the vast mountains, seas, and continents, the layout of the prefecture was very magnificent and prosperous.
However, no matter where they went, the most impressive thing was the omnipresent Heavenly Secret Creations. Even the prosperity of the Dongting Prefecture was mostly based on the Heavenly Secret Creations. These creations were so beneficial to the people's livelihood that the people of the Gully Realm felt the need to promote them in their own world.
They decided to listen to Daoist Feng's advice and try to invite the Master Craftsmen to the Gully Realm. During this time, they heard that there were two main people in charge of the Dongting Heavenly Secret Workshop. One of them was An Shaolang, who was Zhang Yu's student. This news made them very happy.
After all, with this relationship, An Shaolang was more trustworthy than others. If An Shaolang was willing to go, they were willing to give him the most favorable conditions.
For this reason, they specially sent a Xuan Zun to the Heavenly Secret Workshop to see An Shaolang and ask him if he was willing to go to the Gully Realm to help them promote the Heavenly Secret Workshop.
However, An Shaolang refused.
In his opinion, the Dongting Prefecture was more important. Moreover, the Dongting Tenki-in Hall was almost single-handedly supported by him. Now, he hadn't achieved the goal in his heart. He hadn't even fully grasped the various techniques of the Iparl and Moqi Divine Clans that Zhang Yu taught him. How could he have the leisure to repeat the past from scratch?
Master Craftsman Wu Zewu also disagreed. In his opinion, any Master Craftsman could do what the Gully Realm wanted An Xiaolang to do, but what An Xiaolang could do couldn't be replaced by other Master Craftsmen.
Xuan Zun said regretfully, "It's a pity. We've been to many places and invited many craftsmen, but none of them were willing to leave. Apart from Xuanting, we might not be able to find suitable craftsmen by ourselves."
Master Craftsman Wu pushed up his glasses and said, "I have an idea. Perhaps you can try it."
Solemnly, Xuan Zun said, "Oh? I don't know what method it is, but I hope Master Craftsman Wu can guide me. "
Although he was Xuan Zun, his status as a Master Craftsman was not low. He was also someone who had reached the peak of a certain path. Although he did not have any martial arts skills, his skills were admirable. Moreover, they had also heard that this person was friends with Zhang Yu. But thinking about it, if not, why would Zhang Yu give such an important position to this person?
Master Craftsman Wu said, "In the past, many Master Craftsmen were imprisoned for committing crimes. Although they made mistakes, their outstanding skills were still there."
Xuan Zun was surprised, "Prisoners?"
Master Craftsman Wu nodded, "Although they are prisoners, they are still Master Craftsmen. If you say that going to the Gully Realm to promote creation can atone for their crimes and reduce their punishment, I'm sure they will be willing to do so. Moreover, since they are prisoners, you don't have to give them any benefits or be too polite to them."
Xuan Zun thought that this was a good idea. These people would only be wasting time in Tianxia, but if they went to the Gully Realm, they would be able to do many things that would benefit both sides.
He raised his hand and bowed, saying sincerely, "Thank you for your guidance, Master Craftsman Wu."
Master Craftsman Wu bowed back and said, "As long as you find it useful."
On the upper level of the Firmament of Heaven, inside the Yichang Daoist Palace.
Chief Enforcer Chen, Zhang Yu, and Enforcer Wu were all here today. After almost two years, Zhangsun Tingzhi's refinement of the external bodies was almost complete.
Zhang Yu looked over and saw many figures formed by qi lights standing in the hall. Each of them was of the same size, and there were only slight differences even with his eyesight.
Zhangsun Tingzhi said, "The way to use these external bodies is slightly different from before. There are two ways to use them. First, during wartime, you only need to send your qi into them, and they can be used by cultivators at any time. Second, you can send a wisp of your consciousness and qi into the external body in advance. Through the nourishment of your own qi, you can achieve a high degree of compatibility."
Everyone here can clearly tell that the former is used when the battle is intense and the consumption of qi is urgent. Xuan Zun with ordinary cultivation base is more suitable for this method, while Xuan Zun with superior cultivation base and combat ability is more suitable for the latter method. "
Wu Tingzhi asked, "Refining this external body still requires the use of the Evil God of Void, and the battle against Yuanxia consumed a lot of qi. How did Zhangsun Tingzhi solve this problem?"
Zhangsun Tingzhi said faintly, "At first, one Evil God of Void could only correspond to one external body, but later on, it was discovered that the Evil God of Void's power is special and can divide its power. One Evil God can refine many external bodies."
Wu Tingzhi said in a deep voice, "Everything has its pros and cons. Even if such an external body is refined, I'm afraid it won't last long, right?"
Zhangsun Tingzhi said, "That's right, that's true. However, after Zhangsun Tingzhi's consideration, the external bodies that are used for consumption don't need to last long because we can only maintain the battle in our homeland for the time being, and we don't have to consider attacking Yuanxia's homeland. Therefore, we only need to maintain it for half a day or even a day. If it's in an intense battle, it might not be able to last for such a long time. "
Zhang Yu nodded slightly. He agreed with this view. Ordinary Xuan Zun's external gods didn't need to last long because they couldn't last long in an intense battle. Therefore, it was better to focus on the quantity.
Zhangsun Tingzhi wasn't someone who only thought about how to improve his skills, but how to effectively use them. In fact, it was already good that he could come up with this in two years.
At this moment, Zhangsun Tingzhi waved his hand. Two corporeal figures appeared in front of him. He said, "These are Outer Deities that can be used by cultivators who pluck top-notch merit fruits. Currently, it's still very difficult to change them frequently. However, as long as you don't go to Yuanxia, you won't have to use them."
Wu Tingzhi nodded in agreement. Other than a few people, cultivators who plucked high-grade merit fruits didn't have much difference in strength. Generally, it was difficult to determine the winner in a short period of time if their skills were similar. The other cultivators' threat to them was also very limited, so they couldn't get involved in their battle.
Therefore, as Zhangsun Tingzhi said, as long as they didn't go to the enemy's territory, the need to change the external bodies wasn't that big.
Zhangsun Tingzhi said, "The external bodies aren't complete yet, so there's still room for improvement. Moreover, whether they can be used in battle has yet to be verified. After that, we'll adjust according to the situation after the real battle.
The biggest problem now is that it's not enough to just use the Void Evil God as a sacrificial material because we need a lot of manpower to capture the Evil God. This also involves a part of our battle strength, so it's better for us to replace it with other methods. "
Wu Tingzhi said, "What did Yuanxia rely on to do this?"
Zhangsun Tingzhi said, "It's hard to solve it with normal methods. Zhangsun thinks that it's very likely from a Dao-Guarding Treasure, but I don't know if it's specially refined for this, or if it's used as a side effect."
Zhang Yu said, "It's very likely that it was specially made. Since Yuanxia evolved into ten thousand eras, they weren't sure if they could destroy ten thousand eras in the beginning, nor were they sure if these eras would join forces to deal with them. Therefore, the first thing they needed to do was to reduce their own casualties. Using an external body was the most effective method.
This also explains why Yuanxia was so generous to show me the low-level external body technique, because even though the high-level power and the low-level power are similar, the specific application is different. "
Wu Tingzhi thought for a while and said, "If that's the case, Yuanxia needs at least three Dao-Guarding Treasures in order to attack the outside world. First, it's for the external body, second, it's for the connection between the various territories, and lastly, it's used to open up the boundary and build a passage between the two worlds."
Zhang Yu said, "Maybe it's more than that. With Yuanxia's conservatism, they must have taken care of everything, especially in the beginning when they weren't as strong as they are now. When it comes to their own life and death, they must have left a way out for themselves. Therefore, they must have a Dao-Guarding Treasure, but this treasure might have existed long ago."
In order to pursue the ultimate Dao, the almighties of Yuanxia had long worked together to refine the Dao-Guarding Treasure.
Compared to Tianxia, it wasn't until recently that he really did it.
The only one who had the ability to do this was Shen Xia. The Qing Qiong Boat was refined by the current deacons at that time. However, it took a long time to refine the boat. It started in Gu Xia and was only completed in Shen Xia.
It didn't mean that the longer it took, the more complete the Dao-Guarding Treasure would be. The almighties themselves might not have a normal flow of time, but it should be due to different Daos.
Head Attendant Chen said in a deep voice, "The Dao-Guarding Treasure can only be resisted by other Dao-Guarding Treasures. When I met the Zhi Ren, the Zhi Ren also said that they would continue to refine it. It's fine if it's lacking now. In the battle between Yuanxia and me, we were almost unable to resist at the beginning, but now we can defend one side. In the future, we might be able to attack Yuanxia's location.
Zhang Yu and Zhi Ren both agreed.
Zhang Yu had a thought. Tianxia's orders were always on the same side. Although there wouldn't be any hindrances, there definitely wouldn't be as much of a hindrance as Yuanxia. This was where Tianxia won over Yuanxia. However, if they wanted to defeat Yuanxia in this battle, they still needed to accumulate strength while fighting, and try to prolong the battle as much as possible.
Fortunately, from the current situation, they could do this.
Moreover, as time passed, his fundamental Dao technique became clearer. At most, in a month's time, he would be able to manifest it.
