After Zhang Yu sent off Liang Yi, he pondered for a moment.
He could tell that Liang Yi came to him today to fight and prove his name was only one of the reasons. The other reason was obviously to test his attitude towards the Observer or the Creator.
In all fairness, if Xuanxiu could communicate freely with each other, the Observer could indeed bring great benefits to Xuanxiu. If the communication was proper, it was not impossible for someone to ascend to the upper realm.
However, the problem was that the Xuan Zhu had long been an existence for communication, but in reality, it did not have the effect it should have. This was because the cultivators did not trust each other.
Moreover, there were external enemies in the outer realm. The first thing a cultivator would consider was whether this matter would affect their own safety. If this barrier was not removed, the result that Liang Yi really wanted would never be achieved. Therefore, he told Liang Yi that it was still too early.
However, it was undeniable that if someone had enough power to push this matter behind the scenes, and if the influence was widespread enough, there would still be people who would benefit from it. However, it would only be a small number of people.
If this was Liang Yi's real goal, then he could still achieve it. Moreover, he could not rule out the possibility of using this to ascend to the upper realm. After all, as a disciple of Xuan Zun, when others were hesitating and repeatedly exploring the path ahead, he might just need to walk in the right direction.
No matter what, whether it was selfish or public, as long as it did not violate the laws of Tianxia, he would not care too much. However, at the same time, he would still maintain a certain level of attention.
This was because he always believed that if there was not enough power to support it, then many things would be difficult to guarantee that there would not be any problems.
In this process, as long as other forces came to push you, then there would most likely be a deviation. There were many things in the world that seemed to have a very good starting point, but all of them deviated from the original intention.
At this time, Qing Shu brought over today's newspaper. He took it and flipped through it for a while. Then, he walked to the rooftop. He first took the Cicada Cry and Shocking Sky Swords and wiped them clean. Then, he began his morning homework.
When it was close to noon, the Military Affairs Department's reply was sent over by a messenger. This meant that as long as the protective secret chamber was built, Daoist Xingchuan and the others could go to the lower level.
However, he still needed to wait for another person.
A few days later, Qing Shu came to report that Priest Zuo had returned.
Zhang Yu immediately asked him to invite him in. Not long after, Zuo Daoist walked into the inner room. When he saw Zhang Yu, he quickly stepped forward and bowed.
Zhang Yu returned the greeting and said, "Fellow Daoist Zuo, did your trip go smoothly?"
Daoist Zuo said, "I've already figured out the general situation." He took out a document. "I've written down all the details here. Please take a look."
Zhang Yu took it and opened it to read it carefully.
Over the past few days, Zuo Daoist had been going to the Military Affairs Department to look through the books, mainly to check on the situation of the lower realms.
Ten years ago, the Kui Constellation controlled more than ten lower levels, but now, there were only four left, and one of them was in imminent danger. As a Patrol Protector, he had to figure out the situation.
From the situation listed by Daoist Zuo, although the Military Affairs Department was paying attention to the lower levels, their focus was still on the outer layer. The lower levels had always been in a defensive position and did not take the initiative to open up new areas.
As the saying goes, if one keeps on defending, they will lose. Twelve years ago, Shangchen and the Demigods suddenly joined forces in the lower levels and launched an attack on several lower levels at the same time.
When the Military Affairs Department reacted, it was already too late to reverse the situation. Therefore, it seemed that the lower levels were gradually lost over the past ten years, but in fact, they had lost their advantage from the beginning. These years, they were just barely holding on like the lower levels he had visited.
Although the Military Affairs Department had also begun to pay attention, they could only persevere. This was because if they wanted to counterattack, they would have to invest more military power, which would have a great impact on the outer layer.
The Military Affairs Department even suspected that the two factions were using this point to tie down their military power, so they did not dare to act rashly. The lower levels continued to maintain their current situation, where they did not seek to make any contributions, but rather to not make any mistakes.
At this time, Daoist Zuo said, "The situation in the lower levels can only be reversed if many of our fellow Daoists are willing to go there. However, there are not many of our fellow Daoists who are willing to go there. Even if they go, it is mainly to cultivate and not to kill the enemy. In fact, most of our fellow Daoists do not pay much attention to the lower levels. This is the case for many people in the Military Affairs Department. "
Zhang Yu thought for a moment, then said, "This time, I have recruited many cultivators from the inner layer. They will go to the lower levels together. At the very least, they must defend the Hongyi Layer. I intend to leave this matter to you, Daoist Zuo."
On one hand, he needed to use this opportunity to search for Origin Energy in order to defend the Hongyi Layer. On the other hand, the Demigods and Shangchen had joined forces to increase the invasion of the lower levels. This was definitely not without reason. He could not allow any more breakthroughs.
Although he did not have the authority to influence the arrangements of the Military Affairs Department, as the Patrol Guard, he could freely dispatch the people he recruited.
Daoist Zuo immediately said, "I am willing to share the Patrol Guard's burden."
Zhang Yu said, "Then I will have to trouble Daoist Zuo. You have been running back and forth these past few days. It must be tiring for you. Go and rest for a few days. We will deal with this matter when you return."
At this time, in the Kui Residence Military Affairs Department, Chief Hong Yuanqiu was in the main hall receiving two emissaries from a Tenki-in Hall in Yujing.
Both of them were in their seventies or eighties, and were master craftsmen. One of the master craftsmen surnamed Yu said, "After receiving Chief Hong's inquiry, our Hall Master attached great importance to this matter and specially sent us to confirm it with Chief Hong."
The other master craftsmen surnamed Long said solemnly, "Chief Hong, creating a high-quality outer armor is not something that can be done in a day. Even if we have all the materials now, it may take two or three years. During this time, we will have to continuously invest in it. We want to confirm whether Chief Hong is really determined to do this."
Hong Yuanqiu frowned. Two or three years of continuous investment, and this did not include the time to find suitable people. That might take five or six years. At that time, he might not be able to sit on the Chief's seat anymore. He was a little unwilling to put in so much effort to pave the way for someone else to succeed him.
Master Yu looked at him and said, "Chief Hong, we have a choice here. Would you like to hear it?"
Chief Hong said, "Yu Dajiang, please speak."
Yu Dajiang said, "A few years ago, the Northern Dome Constellation ordered an outer armor from us. The outer armor was completed two years ago, but the problem is that they have not been able to find a suitable person to wear it. Now, the Northern Dome Constellation has a new Chief, and this Chief has Xuan Zun's incarnation, so there is no need for this outer armor.
Therefore, if Chief Hong is willing to pay the cost of creating this outer armor, we can transfer this outer armor to the Kui Constellation. "
Hong Yuanqiu's expression became serious. He already knew that it was very difficult to find a suitable person for the outer armor. Now, it seemed that this matter was much more difficult than he had imagined.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Let me think about this."
Yu Dajiang smiled and said, "Of course, but we have something here that Chief Hong might be more interested in." He gestured, and the servant behind him handed over a document.
Hong Yuanqiu took it and flipped through it. He was startled and frowned. When he looked up, Yu Dajiang was only looking at him with a smile.
He thought about it seriously again and closed the document. He said, "In this case, please stay for a few days. I will give you an explanation as soon as possible."
Yu Dajiang chuckled and stood up. He cupped his hands and said, "Then we will wait for Chief Hong's reply."
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
On this day, Zhang Yu was meditating on the rooftop when the sky suddenly darkened. Then, a bright light shone down and landed three feet in front of him. Celestial music and neon light floated out from it.
He opened his eyes and took a look. He stood up, tidied his robe, and stepped inside. His figure disappeared from the rooftop in an instant.
Zhang Yu stepped into the light and walked along the golden path. After a few steps, he found himself in the tea garden again.
The young Daoist sat under an ancient tea tree. Petals danced around him, and there was a sweet fragrance. He cupped his hands and bowed to him. He then pointed his horsetail whisk forward and said, "Patrol Chief Zhang, please sit down and talk."
Zhang Yu bowed and thanked him. He sat down in front of him.
The young Daoist said, "This time, there is a conclusion for the Yi Wei Tian City incident. As for the specifics, it is not convenient for me to say more. Patrol Chief did not fear danger this time. He found out the truth and found the whereabouts of the previous Patrol Chief. Xuanting also has many praises and rewards for Patrol Chief.
But because this incident involves a Xuan Zun, I will not announce it publicly. I also intend to protect Patrol Chief. Does Patrol Chief understand? "
Zhang Yu nodded his head and said, "I understand."
The young Daoist nodded his head. He waved the horsetail whisk in his hand. Suddenly, there was a bright light that scattered and illuminated the garden. There were three objects floating in the light. He said, "Fellow Daoist, you can take two of these three objects."
However, after he finished speaking, he smiled and did not explain what these three items were.
Zhang Yu's gaze fell. Among them, the Coiling Dragon Copper Pole that was blooming with a bright flame was the most eye-catching.
But this copper pole seemed to be arrogant and unruly. When he looked at it slightly, there was a strong pressure coming from it. It was as if it wanted to force him to submit.
He looked at it for a moment. He expected this object to be very powerful. But with such a strong instrument, even if he got it, he might not be able to use it freely. Moreover, he did not like the cruel and fierce aura of it. So, he looked away and looked to the sides.
Floating on the left was a green and white jade pendant. The jade's quality was exquisite and bright. There was a lively young dragon spiraling on both sides. It looked like a living creature. And on the right, there was a dark green jade scroll hidden in a faint spiritual light. It could be said to be the most inconspicuous of the three objects.
He thought for a moment. His mind swept up and took the dragon-shaped jade pendant and the jade scroll. He said, "Just take these two objects."
