After Zhang Yu parted with Wu Ze last time, he asked him to make some things, one of which was a Xuan Weapon.
Even though he was a cultivator, it didn't mean that cultivators couldn't use other methods to deal with their opponents. Especially a weapon as powerful as a Xuan Weapon, if used well, it would be more useful than some artifacts.
Wu Ze brought Zhang Yu to a sealed metal room. Then, he pressed his hand on the smooth metal wall. A part of the wall caved in, revealing two jade boxes. Both were about the size of a palm. He reached out with both hands and took out the two jade boxes, one on the left and one on the right. Then, he placed them on the table.
Wu Ze took off the glasses on his nose. He shook the jade box on the left. The box glowed faintly. Then, a burst of white gas came out. Then, it flipped open, revealing a shuttle-shaped object that was flickering with white light and making a buzzing sound.
He said, "I tried to make two Xuan Weapons with the materials that Xuan Zheng gave me last time. If Xuan Zheng is dissatisfied with anything, I can make some improvements."
Zhang Yu's gaze fell. That object slowly flew up from the jade box.
Wu Ze said, "According to Xuan Zheng's request, this Xuan Weapon can be guided by heart force. It doesn't aim for an area of effect. According to the files I obtained in the past, if a cultivator below a high level is hit directly, they will at least be heavily injured."
Zhang Yu said, "Elder Wu, have you considered using artifacts to protect it?"
Wu Ze took out a piece of cloth to wipe his glasses. He said, "The power of a cultivator's artifacts varies. It's hard to judge here, but most artifacts can't block this Xuan Weapon."
Zhang Yu looked at it for a while. Then, he released his intent. This Xuan Weapon slowly fell back into the jade box.
Wu Ze then opened the other jade box. He pointed inside and said, "This Xuan Weapon is similar to the traditional Xuan Weapons. When used, it needs to be guided by the weapon guide. But I modified it. The speed of the guide and the Xuan Weapon's descent is twice as fast as before."
Zhang Yu pondered for a moment and said, "If Elder Wu can make such a Xuan Weapon, I think the Divination Department can do the same."
Wu Ze said, "Indeed, but it's not practical because the throwing method that Xuan Zheng wants is all done at close range. This way, even the thrower himself may be implicated.
I don't know who Xuan Zheng is going to use this to deal with, but it is very likely to be a cultivator. Then, I will use a cultivator as an example. If the thrower is an ordinary person, then in front of a cultivator, it is impossible to complete this action. Either the cultivator will be stopped first or the cultivator will be forced to dodge in advance. That is especially true now that the cultivator has an observer. Something like that is even more difficult to accomplish. In that case, it would be better to focus on the area of effect. "
Zhang Yu looked at the Xuan Weapon in the jade box and said, "In other words, if the thrower was a cultivator like me, then there would be no such problem."
"That's right."
At this time, Wu Ze leisurely put on his glasses that had been wiped clean. "But the prerequisite is that there is a master craftsman who is willing to forge a profound weapon for them."
Zhang Yu nodded slightly.
As far as he knew, although there was a certain degree of difficulty in forging a profound weapon, official master craftsmen could actually do it.
However, there was still a certain gap between the profound weapon they forged and the one made by a master craftsman. At least in terms of stability, some of them would explode when encountering a slightly dense turbid tide.
Especially when cultivators need to fly in the sky and burrow into the ground, there were many places to go. At that time, it was hard to say whether it would explode themselves or others, so few people were willing to carry such a thing with them.
With a flick of his sleeve, he put away the two jade boxes.
Wu Ze said, "If Xuan Zheng wants to forge something similar, then I will need more materials."
Zhang Yu said, "I will try to send more materials."
Previously, because the two manors needed Xuanfu to contain the Frost Continent, they transferred a large number of materials. After discussing with Yun Chen, he asked for a part of the materials and sent them to Wu Ze.
After all, this was a former master craftsman of the Ministry of Divination. It would be a pity if he didn't use his skills.
Now that he had obtained the items, Zhang Yu didn't stay here any longer. He turned and walked out. Wu Ze sent him all the way to the gate.
Before leaving, he said, "I will come back in a few days and send Old Wu to the World Gap."
Wu Ze's eyes lit up slightly. "I will wait here for Xuan Zheng."
Zhang Yu nodded to him, then leaped up and left from the high cliff. In an instant, he passed through the underground valley and returned to the ground through the huge pit. Then, he turned and fled in the northwest direction.
This was because the Abandoned Demonic Fish would only hide in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, and there had to be a large number of low-level Divine Beasts around. Most of these places were concentrated in the northwest of the Qingyang Upper Continent, and there were only a few of them. Therefore, he had to go there. Otherwise, he could solve this matter elsewhere.
On the other side, Jia Luo received the news not long after Zhang Yu left the academy. After all, there were many people in the academy, and Zhang Yu was the head teacher in charge of teaching the students. If he went out, he would inevitably report to the academy. Therefore, his departure wasn't a secret, and he didn't hide it much.
According to Jia Luo's judgment, he believed that Zhang Yu's target was most likely the Abandoned Demonic Fish this time. Therefore, after pondering for a while, he left the cave and flew to the northwestern boundary as fast as he could. Wherever the Abandoned Demonic Fish lived, he would try to place a swarm of flying insects.
As long as Zhang Yu really came, he would be able to detect it.
After arranging everything, he opened up a spacious cave in the Wilderness with his magic power. Then, he went in and sat cross-legged, waiting for Zhang Yu's arrival.
After flying in the Wilderness for two days, Zhang Yu once again came to the Northwest Wilderness. From afar, he saw the huge figure of the Abandoned Demonic Fish swimming in the sky.
He guessed that the battle not long ago must have awakened these things from their slumber.
However, this time, he didn't rush to get close. Instead, he thought about the battle report he saw a few days ago. Then, he turned into a light and flew back and forth at the edge of the Wilderness.
After about a summer's time, his sharp eyes saw a narrow cave behind the rock wall below. He immediately descended and walked in.
After three to five steps, a man-made shaft appeared in front of him. The shaft was very narrow and only allowed one person to pass through. He stepped in without hesitation.
After descending for about thirty meters, he reached the bottom. It was different from the top. The underground space was very spacious, and there were still messy footprints on the ground. His eyes flashed slightly, and he saw the shadow of a metal giant walking along the underground passage. After a few steps, it rose up and quickly disappeared in front of him.
This was one of the underground hiding places and observation posts that the military headquarters had dug in advance to ambush Taibo. Because it was temporarily set up, it looked simple and crude. The walls of the cave were also uneven.
He came here because he felt that he might be able to use this place to observe the Abandoned Demonic Fish. In this way, he wouldn't have to expose himself outside.
After looking for a while, he tapped his foot and flew along the underground passage at a leisurely pace. This passage was very long. After about fifteen minutes, he came to a cave room that could accommodate a few people.
There was a glass jade mirror here. Through the holes in the back, it clearly reflected the scenery outside.
Perhaps it was because it was inconvenient to move, or the military headquarters wanted to use this place in the future, so they didn't take it away.
However, this thing wasn't very useful to him. This was because there was only a fixed angle here. The things that could be seen were very limited.
He sat down cross-legged here. With a flash of the Cicada Cry Sword, he instantly flew into the air. He directly came to the surface through the air gap in the underground passage. Then, he retracted his brilliance and flew across the ground, flying towards the Abandoned Land of the Gods.
Sword observation was the same as heart observation, and this sword was one with his mind. Wherever the flying sword went, the scenery he saw would also be reflected in his mind. However, in this way, his heart force would be greatly exhausted.
Fortunately, he had already cultivated the Six Righteous Seal to perfection. His mental strength was incomparably abundant, so this loss was nothing to him. At most, he wouldn't be able to go too far when observing the Abandoned Demonic Fish.
However, this wasn't too big of a problem. As long as this place could ensure his safety, even if he could only observe for half a summer a day, he had enough patience to spend it.
Although he had prepared a Mysterious Weapon before coming this time, it was just in case. If he were to face an evil cultivator like Jia Luo, he would rather observe the fourth chapter of the book before fighting with him.
At this moment, the Cicada Cry Sword was flying all the way. When it gradually approached the Abandoned Demonic Fish, it raised its head and stopped a few feet away from its body. It slowly observed the spiritual changes on the Abandoned Demonic Fish.
With the Cicada Cry Sword here, Zhang Yu was no longer afraid of being discovered by Jia Luo.
Last time, he could stay near the Demonic Fish because in terms of level, the Demonic Fish was stronger than him, so it didn't care about him.
However, Jia Luo was different. As a cultivator who had cultivated the Primordial Spirit Reflection, he already had the ability to threaten the Demonic Fish. If he dared to approach, the Demonic Fish would definitely expel or attack him.
If this person was nearby at this moment, he would only be able to observe from afar. Under the influence of the Turbid Tide, he would at most be able to see the outline of the Demonic Fish. It would be impossible for him to see the flying sword that was hovering beside it.
His judgment was correct.
The cave that Jia Luo was in was relatively far away from the Abandoned Demonic Fish. Although the flying insects that he released could stay above the Demonic Fish's territory, they couldn't get too close. This was because the Demonic Fish could destroy them with its overflowing spiritual power.
In fact, it was useless even if they got close. This was because Zhang Yu had already seen such flying insects at Hou Gangzheng's place. This time, he was also on his guard. If he saw them again, he would definitely kill them without hesitation. Then, he could just move to another place. He wouldn't be exposed.
Time passed slowly as Zhang Yu observed the Demonic Fish and Jia Luo waited. Twenty days later, on the 15th of November, the Cicada Cry Sword that had been following the Demonic Fish suddenly shook and left the Abandoned Demonic Fish. It quickly flew back.
