After the minister had made up his mind, he said to the minister, "I only need to avoid direct combat with the enemy, then I should be safe."
The minister said, "That's the theory. However, nothing is absolute. Minister, you still need to be careful. "
The minister took a few glances and slowly said, "Your Excellency, you can only say this to me. You must not say this to others. In my Yuan Xia, what we seek is absolute, what we seek is eternal, and what we seek is no change. How can there be so many variables?"
That committee member shook his head and said, "It is only in front of the committee member that I can speak a few words of truth. Some words are clearly reasonable, but no one dares to say it, and no one dares to affirm it. They have to agree loudly, for fear of offending a great taboo."
He sighed and said, "When Yuanxia seeks the end, all Daos can be seen at a glance. Presumably, there won't be a need for people like me who are good at divination, right?"
The minister didn't reply and said, "Let's end it here for today. Also, I hope you won't speak of this to others."
The minister said, "I understand."
The Minister of Communication was also relieved. The tightest lipped people in the world were those who were good at divination. If they dared to divulge anything that involved the Heavenly Secrets, it would backfire on them. They were all very careful and did not dare to overstep their boundaries.
Therefore, he bowed and got up to leave.
When he was about to leave, the minister said, "Minister, we can sense it. It won't be without reason. Especially for someone as skilled as the minister, you must not underestimate him."
The minister paused and nodded to show that he understood. Only then did he leave the place.
When he returned to the station, he became vigilant. He decided that the next time he went to Tianxia, he would hide in the stronghold. He would bring a few more formation items with him and use the Dao Guarding Treasure to protect himself. If he sensed that the situation wasn't right, he would return with the Green Swan Feather and not give the enemy any chance. Then, he would be fine.
After thinking it through, he calmed down.
At this moment, it wasn't just him. The other people who were injured by Zhang Yu's sword light were more or less uneasy after sensing it.
Daoist Xu, who had followed His Highness to attack Tianxia and took the initiative to conquer the Gully Realm, was killed by Zhang Yu once. After that, there was a sword scar left on his mind. Later on, he believed that he had found a way to restrain it and intended to turn the tables. However, he was once again slashed by Zhang Yu. In the end, not only did he not wash away the curse, it even deepened, and it constantly troubled him.
Every time he cultivated, this sword mark would appear and affect his mind, causing him to be unable to sit still.
For the past two years, he had been trying to get rid of this problem, but it was useless. The more he tried, the more serious the sword mark became. This thing could only be completely removed with the Dao Guarding Treasure.
However, the problem was that he wasn't a minister and wasn't qualified to use the Dao Guarding Treasure. Moreover, his state of mind was affected after the defeat, and he couldn't recover by himself. No matter what, this matter couldn't be known by others. Otherwise, it would definitely affect his current position and make people doubt his ability. In this way, he wouldn't have the chance to fight with Zhang Yu again, and there would be no way to solve this matter.
In fact, other than him, there was also Daoist Zhi, who was killed twice by Zhang Yu, who was also looking for a way to solve this problem.
If these people gathered together, they might be able to find some clues. However, everyone kept it a secret, afraid that others would know about it. How could they take the initiative to publicize it?
In the Qing Xuan Daoist Palace, after Zhang Yu obtained the Absolute Severing, he practiced his swordsmanship every day to familiarize himself with the changes. After practicing it many times, he gradually felt something in his heart.
The Absolute Severing promoted by Xuan Yi was actually not much different from the real Absolute Severing. What it really lacked was the spirit of concentration.
The Mysterious Sky could help him reach this point in an instant, because the Mysterious Sky seemed to be able to find the correct path to this place among the countless variables.
However, at the same time, in this instant, he had no other way to use other means. In the past, he couldn't feel this and it didn't hinder him. However, when he fought with an opponent of the same level, it was worth paying attention to.
Of course, the real Absolute Severing had no other means. No matter what was in front of him, he only needed to slash it with his sword.
Strictly speaking, the difference between him and those who specialized in Absolute Severing was that he needed to use his momentum to launch his sword, while those who specialized in Absolute Severing didn't have this kind of hindrance. Therefore, this could be considered a flaw that wasn't a flaw.
Of course, it wouldn't be a problem if it was a one-on-one battle. However, if there were more enemies, he might overlook it. However, he could shorten this instant by practicing it over and over again. Moreover, he was fighting alone now. When Bai Ran and Qing Shuo mastered it, they would be able to protect him.
At this moment, he gently stroked the Cicada Sword. After obtaining this swordsmanship, even if his opponent was only the external body of a Yuanxia cultivator, as long as he slashed, he could immediately kill his opponent's vitality and spirit. The main body had no chance of survival unless it was protected by a Daoist treasure at all times.
However, even some of the Yuan Hall's ministers couldn't have such protection at all times. As for those cultivators who wanted to complete their Daoist techniques or didn't come from Yuanxia, it was impossible for them to have such treatment.
However, it was also important to note that Yuanxia wasn't a pushover. Once they noticed that he could destroy the main body through Absolute Severing, they would definitely take precautions.
Therefore, his first attack was very important. He had to find a way to obtain enough sticky hooks. It would be best if he could kill a few more people before Yuanxia reacted.
Even Yuanxia wouldn't casually send out those who wanted to complete their Daoist techniques to their deaths. No matter which faction they belonged to, they could be counted as a pillar of support. If too many of them were killed, Yuanxia's strength would be greatly reduced.
Once they encountered such a predicament, every person that Yuanxia sent to Tianxia would need to be protected by a Daoist treasure. This was equivalent to restraining a part of Yuanxia's strength, which was greatly beneficial to Tianxia.
Although he might be targeted by Yuanxia, as the Xuanting Court Administrator, he was a target that Yuanxia had to eliminate. Therefore, he didn't need to care about this.
However, he also felt that he had to thank Yuanxia. If not for Yuanxia's constant pressure, he might never have been able to push the Absolute Severing to its current state. Many cultivators in Tianxia wouldn't be able to advance in such a short period of time.
However, all of these achievements had to be preserved. If Tianxia was defeated, then all of this would be useless and would become nothing more than a bubble.
Thinking of this, he turned his wrist and a sharp brilliance appeared in his eyes. In an instant, another ray of sword radiance flashed across the Dao Palace.
Within the Golden Court Dao Palace, Zhong Tingzhi and Chong Tingzhi were discussing how to deal with Yuanxia. Other than them, there were many Tianxia cultivators who were proficient in divination sitting in the hall. Some of them were originally captured or surrendered to Yuanxia.
They were all proficient in divination. However, just like how Tianxia was invaded by the Great Chaos, they couldn't divine anything. Similarly, they couldn't divine what Yuanxia's arrangement was like when Yuanxia established the Heavenly Order on its own.
However, this was the case in Yuan Xia's territory, but it would be different in Tianxia's territory. At that time, they would be able to carry out certain deductions.
Even if Yuanxia had a Dao-Guarding Treasure to conceal themselves, when the Dao-Guarding Treasure clashed, it would be their chance. Even if there was only a small gap, they could still obtain clues about Heavenly Secrets.
A cultivator said, "If we can grasp the right opportunity, we can gain some advantage. However, Yuanxia's cultivators are here in their external bodies. No matter what, they can't do anything to their main bodies. They can come here repeatedly. I wonder if Xuanting has any countermeasures?"
Zhong Tingzhi knew about Xuanting's arrangement, but it wasn't convenient for him to explain it to his subordinates. He was mainly afraid that Yuanxia would be able to find out something through divination when they arrived.
He only said, "Xuanting has its own arrangements. Everyone, don't worry."
Zhong Tingzhi said, "External bodies are ultimately external objects. Everyone, don't rely on them too much. I see that Yuanxia's cultivators don't dare to use their main bodies. It seems like they have an advantage, but in reality, it has worn down their Dao hearts. When it's time to make a decision, I'm afraid they won't be able to make up their minds."
Zhong Tingzhi said solemnly, "Everyone, Fellow Daoists in Tianxia have their own responsibilities. We are all proficient in divination. If we can divine the crucial information, we can decide the outcome. Everyone knows that, so I don't need to say more. We only need to do what we are good at. Xuanting will arrange the rest. "
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and didn't say anything else. They bowed and said, "We are willing to listen to the orders of the two Tingzhi Deacons."
Within Linghua Daoist Palace, Lin Tingzhi and Daoist You were also discussing countermeasures. Their direction was how to best deal with Yuanxia's formation artifacts.
Yuanxia's formation artifacts were a combination of formation artifacts, magic artifacts, and even talisman techniques. It had its merits, but it also required a deep foundation to support it. If the cultivators below had one, they could unleash several times the power. Tianxia was at a disadvantage in this aspect.
Therefore, the two of them were also thinking that Tianxia should also have some magic artifacts that could fight against Yuanxia.
In the past, this was very difficult. However, if the two of them combined their fundamental Dao arts, they might be able to create magic artifacts that were comparable to formation artifacts.
After the two of them discussed, Lin Tingzhi took out a golden pill. He stretched out his finger and pushed a strand of qi into it.
After achieving perfection, the magic artifacts around him were no longer fixed in one form. With the change of his fundamental Dao arts, even a stone could be transformed into a useful artifact. The level only depended on the strength of his fundamental Dao arts.
Daoist You was also very cautious at this moment. He inserted a strand of qi into it. Generally speaking, fundamental Dao arts were not compatible with each other, especially when they were skilled in two different directions. In order to combine the two powers into one, the two of them had to practice with each other. In these two years, they had discussed the Dao many times. It was only now that they decided to truly take action.
With the two of them working together, it took about half a day before they retracted their hands. When they looked at the golden pill again, they had already successfully retained the two strands of qi. They gradually fused together in the light. In the end, it flickered for a while before it retracted its brilliance.
Lin Tingzhi took a few glances and carefully examined it for a moment. In the end, he said happily, "Daoist You, this method works!"
