After Daoist Li heard a few words of caution from the child, he stood to the side to guard him.
However, the small cauldron did not stop. The beast patterns on the surface of the cauldron became more and more real, and it roared from time to time. It seemed that it would come out at any time.
He could feel that if this thing really came out, something bad would definitely happen. However, he saw that the little boy was still in a meditative state and had yet to wake up. According to his previous instructions, he couldn't interfere, so he could only wait patiently.
About two days later, his expression became serious because the beast pattern monster had crawled out of the small cauldron. Most of its body was already outside, and only its tail was still connected to the small cauldron.
Just as he was hesitating whether or not to attack, the little boy finally opened his eyes. He pointed at the ferocious creature, and in an instant, a ray of red light entered its body.
Chewing sounds came from the monster's mouth as if it was gnawing on something. It finally stopped making a fuss and retreated into the small cauldron.
Daoist Li looked and asked, "Fellow Daoist Chun Yu, how is it?"
Xiao Tong said, "The sacrifice has been obtained. Come down and let me rest for a while, then I can deal with that Governor Zhang. I'll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Li to look after this place for me for another day."
Daoist Li naturally agreed.
After resting for a day, Xiao Tong's spirit and Qi were fully recovered.
He could deal with ordinary people with his own Daoist techniques, but he had to be more careful when dealing with this Xuanting Governor. To ensure his chances of winning, he was prepared to use his sect's treasure.
He took out a long incense stick from his astral bag and lit it on the cauldron. He muttered, "This is a loss." Then he raised his head and said, "Fellow Daoist Li, I'm ready to start."
Daoist Li said, "Fellow Daoist Chun Yu, how long will it take to deal with this person this time?"
Xiao Tong said, "We're only having a battle of consciousness. A moment is enough."
Daoist Li's mind moved. He said, "Then why don't you send someone to hide nearby? Even if it's only for a moment, it's still an opportunity for us to strike. Perhaps we can …
Xiao Tong shook his head and said, "That won't work. This person's senses are so sharp. If we arrange for someone to be nearby, he will definitely be alerted if there is a threat to his life. In that case, it will be very difficult for me to activate my divine ability."
Daoist Li felt that it was a pity. But then again, it made sense. If this Dharma Access was so easy to use, he could just let this person perform the Dharma Access at the back and let the person in front cooperate with him. Then, who could stop him?
After the little boy sat down, he activated the spell, and clouds of seven-colored mist appeared around him in an instant.
It wasn't that easy to drag a cultivator into his dreamland. It was just like a host opening the door to his residence, but the guest might not be willing to come in.
In order to do so, one needed to find the other party's wish. In other words, there was something in the residence that the other party wanted. In his sect, this was called "Dream Attraction".
And this desired item must be something that he really knew or existed in order to establish communication.
For example, if he knew the Dharma Access of Xuanxiu's Upper Realm, then as long as it was a Xuanxiu who wanted to ascend to the Upper Realm, he would definitely be involved with him.
Of course, he didn't know this.
But since he wanted to obtain the Seal of Dao from the other party, then he was prepared to use this as a connection. He would give up the clue of another Seal of Dao that he knew to satisfy the other party's intangible wish. And with this as bait, he could "invite" Zhang Yu into his dreamland!
At the same time, in the Military Affairs Department.
Hong Yuanqiu was bent over the table reading books. Compared to a few days ago, there was a lot of white hairs on his temples.
In the past month, all the garrisons in Heaven City had been troubled by the invasion of the Evil Gods. This gave him a headache.
In the past, the Upper Realm of Heaven City had been handed over to Yu Xuanzun's disciples for cultivation. Yu Xuanzun also returned the favor by shielding the entire Heaven City so that the Outer Void Evil would be kept out. This greatly reduced the expenditure on creation.
The extra military expenditure allowed him to recruit more troops and build more bases on the various Earthly Stars.
However, the new Xuan Zun did not have such thoughts. After this Xuan Zun's incarnation adjusted the formation, he sent a telepathic message to Hong Yuanqiu and then went silent. He did not even bother to meet Hong Yuanqiu.
This was the style of a True Cultivator. Normally, I don't restrict you, so don't disturb me.
Hong Yuanqiu actually wanted to work with the Xuan Zun who achieved the Dao through Xuan Techniques because it was easier to communicate with them.
Although this person could be considered a Xuanxiu, he used to cultivate True Techniques. Later on, he ascended to the Upper Realm through Xuan Zun, so he was no different from other True Cultivators.
Since he could not rely on the Upper Realm, he could only think of a way himself.
The sound of footsteps could be heard as a civil servant walked in. He bowed to Hong Yuanqiu and said, "Director, this subordinate has asked."
Hong Yuanqiu raised his head and asked, "How is it?"
The civil servant said, "Director, whether it is the military uniform or the medicinal oil, Master Craftsman He and the other master craftsmen said that there is no way to copy them. They said that our Heavenly Secret Workshop in Kui Mansion is far inferior to the Inner Realm in all aspects."
Hong Yuanqiu was slightly disappointed.
However, this answer was not unexpected. After all, if these things were so easy to copy, they would have been rampant in other places long ago. The Tenki-in Hall in Yujing would not have handed them over so easily.
The civil servant said, "But Director, this subordinate thinks that if we can't find anyone in Heaven City, we might be able to find someone elsewhere."
Hong Yuanqiu muttered, "Do you mean to invite someone from the Inner Realm? I've thought of this method before, but not to mention how few master craftsmen from the Inner Realm are willing to come to the Outer Realm, even if they do, I'm afraid they can't compare to those from Yujing. "
The civil servant hurriedly said, "Director, I've heard that a master craftsman named Wu Ze came from Ye Ya Prefecture. He single-handedly raised the skills of the Heavenly Secret Workshop in Ye Ya Prefecture to a whole new level.
If we can invite him to Heaven City, we might be able to copy these things. "
Hong Yuanqiu was startled. "There's such a person? Why didn't I know about this beforehand? "
The civil servant said, "This subordinate has asked around. It's said that Master Craftsman Wu has not been working at the Tenki-in Hall for several decades due to an unforeseen event. As such, there were no official letters in advance and he did not attract the attention of the Attention Bureau. If he hadn't revealed his skills this time, we wouldn't have known about him either. "
Hong Yuanqiu said, "I see." He thought for a moment. "Where did he come from?"
The civil servant said, "This subordinate has investigated before. He came from Qingyang Upper Continent."
"Qingyang Upper Continent?"
Hong Yuanqiu nodded. Aside from Yujing, Qingyang Upper Continent was the continent with the highest level of craftsmanship. A master craftsman from there was definitely not simple.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of something. "I remember that Governor Zhang also came from Qingyang Upper Continent. He's living in Ye Ya Prefecture now, right?"
The civil servant said, "Yes."
Hong Yuanqiu immediately understood that these two were related. Solemnly, he said, "Go and try to invite him. Don't force him. The conditions can be higher."
The civil servant said, "This subordinate will set out immediately."
On the high platform in Ye Ya Prefecture, Zhang Yu sat on the rooftop, flipping through the Daoist book that the young Daoist had given him.
As for the jade slip, he was in no hurry to continue reading because there were some notes on it that he couldn't fully understand.
In fact, this didn't make him feel worried. On the contrary, it made him happy. This meant that there were more things that he needed to understand on the road to the Upper Realm.
These things wouldn't cease to exist just because he didn't understand them. Moreover, the more he understood, the less doubts he would have in the future.
He could feel that once he finished reading this book, he would have a clearer understanding of the road he was walking on.
After reading for a few days, he realized that no matter how he walked on the road, there was a premise that he had to be sure of.
That was, a cultivator must have a "Dao" in his heart.
This "Dao" wasn't just the understanding of Daoism, but also the affirmation of one's own beliefs.
Because Xuanxiu had no predecessors to guide him on the road, cultivators usually didn't know how to proceed. Sometimes, when they encountered obstacles and didn't improve for a long time, they would instead doubt themselves.
But if even they doubted themselves and wavered, then their foundation wouldn't be stable.
If the foundation wasn't stable, then it naturally couldn't support cultivators to go further.
Here, he couldn't help but think of the Three Elemental Methods of True Cultivation that Tao Dingfu mentioned in his letter.
The Three Elemental Methods of True Cultivation were the best methods for True Cultivation to seek the Upper Realm. One of the Three Elemental Methods of True Cultivation, "Inner and Outer Illumination", was very similar to this.
Of course, the requirements for Inner and Outer Illumination were higher. In addition to the conviction of the cultivator's own path, the Dao of External Illumination also needed to be determined.
Bai Xiu, who fought with him in the past, actually cultivated the Inner and Outer Illumination Method.
However, according to this trip, there was also a problem here … But he thought again. If he didn't achieve Xuan Zun, then there was no need to think too much about it.
So he put this matter aside for the time being and continued reading.
Unknowingly, a day had passed. Seeing that it was already late, he went downstairs to eat the dinner that Qing Xi had prepared. After teasing Lord Miao Danjun for a while, he returned to the quiet room to meditate.
However, unlike before, when he entered the meditative state, he suddenly felt that he seemed to be able to obtain something.
When the thought arose, he suddenly found that he had entered a unique island. There were reeds all around, and there were red-crowned cranes flying above. The island was surrounded by lakes and mountains. The scenery was beautiful, and there were even gusts of warm wind.
A handsome Daoist sat in the distance, sitting in an open room. There was a tea table in front of him, and there were two Daoist children holding fans behind him.
At this moment, this Daoist stood up with a smile and bowed to him, saying, "This Daoist is Chunyu Bing. Greetings, Daoist friend."
Zhang Yu looked at him, then cupped his sleeves and bowed, saying indifferently, "Did Daoist friend Chunyu invite me here?"
Chunyu Bing smiled and said, "Of course. I don't have any grudges with Daoist friend. This time, I was entrusted by someone to capture Daoist friend and ask for an answer."
