After Zhang Yu ventured deep into the chaotic land, the pressure he felt increased exponentially. Without the suppression of the magnetic force, the four elements of earth, fire, wind, and water began to stir. Countless streams of light swirled around and attacked him. He felt as if he had entered a furnace of heaven and earth and was being refined by the furnace fire.
However, he relied on his profound Heart Light to withstand all kinds of external attacks and quickly adapted to the changes here.
Right now, he felt that if a cultivator were to stay here for a long time, then they could at least hone their outstanding Dao of Mana Heart Light. Once they were able to deal with more of these variables and return to the place of the Magnetism Order, their own sensing power would definitely be far better than before.
At this moment, he examined himself. He still had a lot of energy left, so he could still look deeper.
However, according to the records of the predecessors, many people encountered danger because they overestimated themselves. There was also the Chaotic Vortex, which would cause one's expression to change at the mention of it. This was because the external senses here were chaotic. Sometimes, cultivators would not even realize that they were in danger. In the end, even if they exhausted all of their Radiant Light powers, they would not be able to come out. Thus, it was best to be careful.
Now that he was here, he could try to open a dojo.
Usually, Xuan Zun needed a Calming Pearl, which had two functions. One was to help cultivators suppress the four elements, and the other was to resonate with the magnetic force of the universe.
He could refine it himself or ask Xuanting for it.
Xuanting encouraged Daoist cultivators to come here and set up a Daoist temple. This was because once they had a foothold in this chaos, they could communicate with Qing Qiong. It was the same as opening up an outer realm for Qing Qiong. After a long time, they would be able to connect with Qing Qiong.
However, apart from the chaos before him, there were also strands of Chaos Qi in the Land of Chaos.
It was relatively easier to set up a dojo in the midst of chaos, and it was also less dangerous. However, the range of the dojo that could be set up was very limited. Furthermore, from time to time, he would have to focus on maintaining the dojo. At the very least, he would have to place an avatar there.
However, if he could find the Qi of Primal Chaos, suppress it, and set up a dojo here, it would be equivalent to opening up a new world.
If the chaos was compared to a vast ocean, then setting up a Taoist temple in the chaos was like setting up a drifting boat on the ocean. Even if it was stable for a while and had a place to rest, most of the time, it could only go with the flow.
The dojo established in the Qi of Chaos was a solid island. Even if there were great waves outside, it would not be able to shake the island. Moreover, the innate essences born in the Chaos would also be attracted over, transforming into various living beings and stabilizing the island.
However, if a cultivator wanted to set up a dojo in the Chaos Qi, they would have to put in even more effort and it would be even more difficult. With his intentions, he naturally wanted to use this method. However, this required him to go even deeper.
Although he had the intention of measuring his cultivation this time, he was only here to explore the road and understand the situation. He did not expect to succeed on the first try.
Furthermore, this place was incomparably dark and chaotic. He did not know how long he had been here, so he needed to make a trip back first.
When he thought of this, he did not hesitate. He immediately moved his mind and a ray of clear light separated, turning into an incarnation in an instant.
He wanted to see how long his incarnation could last here. If this incarnation could still exist the next time he returned, then he would be able to obtain some information from the incarnation. If it was not, it would not be a great loss to him.
After doing this, he glanced at the violent turbulence again, and his true body slowly retreated.
However, when he was retreating, he seemed to have sensed something and glanced at a certain direction. This was because he sensed the existence of a strand of magic power.
However, in the chaos, there were countless senses invading his mind at every moment. The magic power was a very inconspicuous change, like a grain of sand in a sea of sand. In the blink of an eye, it was swept away by the endless flow of sand and could no longer be found.
He guessed that this might be the other Xuan Zun who came here to establish a dojo. He was at the upper level and was not familiar with the people here. Moreover, it was inconvenient to communicate in the dark and chaotic place. He did not pay much attention to it and continued to retreat.
After an unknown period of time, he felt that he had stepped into the land governed by magnetism. The chaos around him abruptly receded, and everything in the world returned to normal. He was still standing on the Return to Heaven Cliff, as if he had never left this place.
Daoist Ming Zhou appeared beside him and bowed to him, saying, "Congratulations on your safe return, Xuan Zun."
Zhang Yu glanced at him and said, "I did not call you. Is there something wrong?"
Ming Zhou smiled and did not speak.
Zhang Yu looked to the side as if he sensed something. He saw the cloud light scattered and Daoist Yu Su appeared from within. He held a scroll with a star bag in his hand and said, "Xuan Zun, there is a Xuanting imperial edict."
Zhang Yu's expression turned serious and was about to receive the edict when Daoist Yu Su took a few steps forward and directly handed the edict to him. He said casually, "Those formalities are just for show. Now that there are only the two of us here, there is no need for them."
Zhang Yu would not be pretentious. He took the edict and opened it to take a look. He said, "Bestowed to Shouzheng?"
Daoist Yu Su said seriously, "It is indeed Shouzheng. It was first proposed by the chief enforcer that you take on this position. Zhu Tingzhi was the first to approve it. Later on, the other court enforcers also seconded the idea. At that time, I thought that this position was suitable for your current situation, so I did not object. "
As a patrol, Zhang Yu had also heard about the position of Shouzheng. However, he knew that his cultivation in the past was not high and what he knew might not be the truth. Therefore, he raised his hand and bowed. He said, "Please advise me, Daoist Yu Su."
Daoist Yu Su said, "I was just about to explain it to you."
He said, "Shouzheng's position is specialized in battle. His main task is to face external enemies. In the past, due to the ever-changing battle situation, once external enemies appear, he has to eliminate them in a timely manner. Then, he has to come up with a strategy to defend against the enemy. Therefore, most of the time, Shouzheng does not have to ask for Xuanting's permission and can make decisions on his own. He can also patrol everywhere and has a certain degree of autonomy. He is not like Yu Xuanzun, who has to report to Xuanting in advance when he goes to the inner and outer world.
Moreover, Shouzheng is allowed to borrow Xuanting's various high-grade multiplication instruments because of his position in battle. He can also read some secret Daoist books.
There is another thing. After we become Xuan Zun, we usually have to write down a general outline of what we are good at, including supernatural powers, Daoist techniques, and the battles we have experienced in the past. Other than the court enforcers who do not need to write down such records, Shouzheng is also not included in this list because he is in charge of battle and cannot reveal secrets.
It is also because of this position's authority that Xuanting does not have a permanent position. This is so that he can be used as a means of restraint during crucial moments and not be allowed to leave Xuanting's control. "
Zhang Yu could not help but nod. This was the right way to do things. Shouzheng could travel to various continents and realms without any restrictions. He could even bring powerful instruments with him when he travels. Furthermore, with the prestige of Xuan Zun, it would be extremely easy for him to cause trouble. Therefore, this kind of authority must be limited.
Daoist Yu Su spoke again, "However, this matter has its pros and cons. Assuming the position of Shouzheng, he must be far away from Xuanting. This is probably what some court enforcers are thinking."
When she spoke up to here, her expression became slightly more serious. "However, if Fellow Daoist wants to achieve something or have the intention to pry into the upper realm, then you must strive for the position of court enforcer in the future.
And if you want to become a court enforcer, according to Xuanting's rules, you must first guard an area. It can be as short as sixty to seventy years, or as long as it can be a hundred years.
Even with Fellow Daoist's past achievements, you will need at least thirty to forty years.
However, from Long Huai's opening of the two realms, I predict that there will be chaos inside and outside. Shouzheng's position just happens to be beneficial for Fellow Daoist's achievements. Throughout history, merit has always been the fastest to come from battle. However, this also requires Fellow Daoist to be able to stand on his own, otherwise you will be burdened. "
Zhang Yu nodded his head slightly.
He privately guessed that due to various reasons, Xuanting might not want to come to a conclusion on the matter of the Profound Art. Therefore, he first used the position of Shouzheng to appease him. At the same time, he also sent him away, temporarily keeping him away from the center of Xuanting.
However, he did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. Even though he opened up the path of the Profound Art, if he wanted to make the Profound Art the law of the world, he needed to be able to stand on his own feet first. Perfecting the Profound Art and increasing his own strength was what he needed to do now. This position was just what he wanted.
He raised his sleeve and bowed, thanking Yu Su, "Thank you for your advice, Fellow Daoist Yu Su."
Daoist Yu Su also bowed and said, "Fellow Daoist, don't worry. I will definitely do what I promised you. However, this matter involves the changes of the entire Tianxia. It needs to be done step by step."
Zhang Yu also knew that this matter could not be rushed. He said, "May I ask Fellow Daoist Yu Su, the imperial edict ordered me to capture the Vermillion Cormorant. May I know the origin of this person?"
Daoist Yu Su said, "This matter is actually somewhat related to Fellow Daoist Zhang. Previously, Long Huai was captured by Fellow Daoist. After our investigation, this person once engraved his memories on the stone slab before he went to open up the door between the inner and outer layers. Moreover, before he left, he went to look for the Vermillion Cormorant. We suspect that the stone slab is in his hands. Therefore, we need to find this person."
Zhang Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Didn't you get anything from Shen Ao?"
Daoist Yu Su said, "The person who is related to Shen Ao is called Gan Bai. This person has already escaped and is suspected to have already fled to Shangchen.
Other than Gan Bai, Shen Ao only has contact with Long Huai. Therefore, if we want to find out the person involved in this matter, the Vermillion Cormorant is the only remaining clue here. "
He paused for a moment and said, "I hope Fellow Daoist can succeed in this matter. Not only will Fellow Daoist be able to gain a firm foothold in Xuanting, we will also be able to eradicate those hidden dangers."
Zhang Yu said, "If this person is still outside the Origin Magnetic Field, I will definitely take this person back."
Daoist Yu Su said, "Alright, I've already told Fellow Daoist what I wanted to say. For the following matters, you can just ask Ming Zhou."
He bowed and just like how he came, the cloud light outside his body rose and his figure disappeared into it. His entire person then disappeared.
After he left, Zhang Yu pondered deeply for a moment. Then, he raised his head and called out, "Fellow Daoist Ming Zhou."
When the two of them were talking just now, Daoist Ming Zhou took the initiative to leave. At this moment, following his call, he appeared at the side and said respectfully, "Ming Zhou is here. I wonder what instructions does Zhang Shouzheng have?"
