Chen Tingzhi's seniority was higher, and his skills were profound. He was one of the few people who changed to Xuan Zun.
The reason why he did so was because Xuan Ting had the intention to promote Xuan Technique. He also used this to express his position and determination.
This action also caused his status and prestige in Monk Hunjang to be incomparable to others. He was vaguely the leader of many Xuan Zun cultivators. Therefore, even the chief Daoist had no choice but to pay attention to his opinion.
The chief Daoist considered carefully and looked below the long river of light and Qi. He said, "Do the court deacons have any other opinions?"
Daoist Yu Su spoke from her seat, "My Tianxia occupies the upper level and has a great advantage over the outer layer. Why do we need to be overcautious? If not for the lack of magic tools, would we not be able to defeat the outer layer? "
Zhu Yisheng said, "There is dust in the house, we need to sweep it."
Daoist Zhong stood up and bowed to the chief Daoist. He said, "Chief Deacon, why don't you listen to Zhang Shouzheng's opinion? He is Shouzheng. Now that I am fighting with the outer layer cultivators, why don't we ask him? "
Daoist Feng said, "There is no need to ask Zhang Shouzheng. Zhang Shouzheng mentioned this to me the day before yesterday. Zhang Shouzheng's opinion is also to open the astrolabe as soon as possible to clear the filth." He looked above, "I also think the same."
The chief Daoist looked below the long river and saw that no one else spoke. He said, "Since the deacons have the same opinion, let us use the Clear Sky Astrolabe to check the mysteries of heaven."
The deacons bowed to the chief Daoist.
After that, some other matters were settled. After the discussion, the chime of the bell sounded. The deacons stood up and returned to their own Daoist palaces.
Just as Zhu Yisheng left the long river of light and Qi, he heard a voice behind him, "Zhu Tingzhi, please wait."
Zhu Yisheng turned around. Seeing it was Chen Tingzhi, he stopped and said, "What advice does Chen Tingzhi have?"
Chen Tingzhi walked up to him and said, "Zhu Tingzhi, do you think this could be Shangchen's scheme?"
Zhu Yisheng said, "The mysteries of heaven are unclear, so it's not good to jump to conclusions."
Chen Tingzhi nodded his head and said, "If it was someone else, I would have thought that it was just an excuse, but I know that Zhu Tingzhi would not do that."
Zhu Yisheng looked at him and asked, "What does Chen Tingzhi want to say?"
Chen Tingzhi said in a deep voice, "Actually, I think that this is Shangchen's scheme."
Zhu Yisheng said, "Why do you think so?"
Chen Tingzhi said, "Zhu Tingzhi, I'm afraid you've heard that Shangchen's Ying Chong and I were good friends. I can see that this matter has something to do with him. He always pays attention to the coordination of his actions. Therefore, Shangchen must have prepared a backup plan this time. Tricking me into using the Clear Sky Astrolabe is also one of their schemes."
Zhu Yisheng said, "If that's the case, why didn't Chen Tingzhi say it in the court just now?"
Chen Tingzhi shook his head and said, "Firstly, I agree with Zhu Tingzhi's words. The dust bugs that fly into the house must be swept away. Secondly, we don't have to always have the upper hand in our fight with Shangchen. Sometimes, it's not a bad thing to lose a little opportunity."
Zhu Yisheng was slightly surprised to hear him say this, but then he seemed to have thought of something.
Chen Tingzhi said slowly, "My Tianxia is obviously stronger than Shangchen and You City now, so why do we have to be on the defensive? That's because we're getting stronger day by day. As long as we continue to wait, our enemies will collapse on their own. However, we should at least give Shangchen some hope.
Shangchen is still trying to occupy the inner layer and then seize the upper layer. However, when they feel that they can't succeed no matter how hard they fight with me, they won't obediently resist me anymore. They will inevitably take that step. "
He looked at Zhu Yisheng and said, "Zhu Tingzhi, you should understand what I mean."
Zhu Yisheng was silent for a moment before he said, "They will make that choice sooner or later."
Chen Tingzhi said, "But the later this matter is delayed, the more advantageous it is for Tianxia, isn't it? I hope that this day will come as late as possible. It doesn't need to be long, even if it's 60 years. At that time, even if they really take that step, we don't have to care about it anymore. "
Zhu Yisheng looked at him and said, "Chen Tingzhi, why are you telling me this?"
Chen Tingzhi said, "What I mean is that when you fight against Shangchen in the future, you might as well take a step back when you encounter something that seems to be at a disadvantage. You don't have to take the upper hand everywhere. You have to know that you are an opponent. I hope that in the future, I won't ask for your help in the court meeting, and I also hope that you can understand my choice."
After saying this, he bowed and turned to leave. After a while, his figure dissipated with rays of multicolored light.
In Shouzheng Palace, Zhang Yu was flipping through the submissions in the main hall. At the same time, he was also waiting for the news of the court meeting.
He suddenly sensed something and looked up. He saw Daoist Ming Zhou appear at the bottom of the stairs. The latter bowed to him and said, "Shouzheng, Zhong Tingzhi, and Dai Tingzhi are about to transfer the astrolabe at the 'Heavenly Observation Platform'."
Zhang Yu said, "I understand."
He stood up, glanced at the flickering Jian Yuan's letter in the hall, and said, "Don't stop."
The letter trembled. It originally wanted to rest for a while, but it could only continue to flicker there.
Zhang Yu flicked his sleeves and walked out of the hall. There was already a flying chariot parked in front of the stairs. He stepped on the flying chariot, and the chariot flew into the sea of clouds.
In the outer void, Jin Zhixing came back from his calculations and saw another flickering light in the corner of his eyes.
It was the Jian Yuan's letter. It had been flickering there since a few days ago, and there were no signs of it stopping until now.
This was because as long as one of the Jian Yuan's letters flickered, the rest of the letters would react the same way. Even if they could control it, they would return to the same state as soon as they relaxed a little.
If this situation continued, it seemed that it would be impossible to use this letter to transmit messages.
Jin Zhixing looked at the bursts of light and felt annoyed. He shouted, "Don't flash in front of me. Get out."
The letter wanted to cry but had no tears. It couldn't control itself, but it didn't dare to disobey Jin Zhixing's words. It hurriedly flew out with the flickering light.
Jin Zhixing thought about it. This move might be a casual move by Tianxia Xuanzun, but it caused them to fall into a certain predicament.
Usually, the communication between You City relied on a limited number of letters to connect the You City, and to maintain a grasp of the situation in each City at all times. But now that this matter had happened, even this furnace of letters could not be used.
Unless at this moment, another furnace of letters could be refined. But this thing was not easy to refine. Not to mention that it was difficult to find precious materials, even a suitable cultivator's soul was difficult to find.
He thought about it again, and ordered the disciple below the stage, "Call those frosty people over."
The disciple immediately went down to pass the order.
Not long after, the transformed leader of the frosty people was brought down the stage. The person bowed and said, "Does Xuan Zun have any orders?"
Jin Zhixing looked at him and said, "How far can you go now?"
The frosty person leader replied, "Reporting to Xuan Zun, the time is still a little short. Now I can only transmit my thoughts between the nearby Earth Star.
But if I want to transmit it further, I must set up a 'Heart Transmitting Crystal Jade' in the void, and there may be a long delay in the transmission … "
Jin Zhixing pondered for a moment. The Heart-Transmitting Crystal Jade could be considered a type of creation. It would be troublesome to create it, but it was better than nothing. Moreover, if this thing was really created, the connections between the various Secluded Cities would be even closer.
He was about to say something to this person, but suddenly his expression changed slightly. He immediately separated an invisible clone into the inner hall, and bowed to the Daoist clone in the hall with his back facing him, and said, "Xian Ding greets you."
The Daoist Xian Ding turned around and said, "Xuan Zun, I haven't received any news for two days. What's the situation now?"
Jin Zhixing said, "Reporting to Your Highness, the Jian Yuan letter on Xuan Zun's body had previously sent a message. At that time, it was already a warning. After that, the letter lost its autonomy, and kept sending back some meaningless messages. Therefore, Jin thought that Xuan Zun might have fallen into the hands of Tianxia."
He also felt that it was a pity. In fact, he was very optimistic about Su Zhuo, because the latter was a rare person in You City who could take responsibility. Moreover, it was only after You City broke away from Tianxia that he achieved it. He originally hoped that Su Zhuo could make a great contribution this time, but he didn't expect that he would still be trapped in the inner layer.
The Daoist Xian Ding nodded and said, "Xuan Zun used to have little contact with Tianxia. According to Tianxia's rules, his life shouldn't be in danger. He will only be imprisoned. When we occupy the upper layer in the future, we will be able to rescue him."
Jin Zhixing bowed and said, "Yes."
In fact, in the current situation, he thought that You City's hope of occupying the upper layer was extremely slim. However, they had to declare so, and they had to continue even though they knew that it was impossible. Because without this goal, You City couldn't be united.
The Daoist Xian Ding then said, "Yesterday, I received news from Shangchen that the two Shangchen Daoists who sneaked into the inner layer with Xuan Zun have returned."
Jin Zhixing said, "Then … did Shangchen also fail?"
The Daoist Xian Ding said, "I have been observing the Heavenly Design for the past few days, and I see that the changes are unpredictable. This is because Shangchen and Tianxia are concealing each other, and it doesn't look like it will stop for a short period of time."
Jin Zhixing's heart couldn't help but be moved. He said, "Venerable One, Shangchen may already know about Su Xuan Zun's matter, and the people they sent out seem to have failed, but now they are continuing to conceal the Heavenly Design …" He raised his head and said, "It seems that as Venerable One predicted, Shangchen has other plans this time."
The Daoist Xian Ding said, "With Shangchen's way of doing things, it would be strange if they didn't have other plans. It's impossible for them to fight against Tianxia alone. If they had a chance, they would definitely try to rope in You City. We will just watch from the sidelines. Hmm, how are those frosty people now?"
Jin Zhixing said, "There are some gains, but there are still many shortcomings, and they need to be slowly made up for."
The Daoist Xian Ding urged, "Don't worry about money and manpower. If this matter succeeds, it will be the only advantage we have over Shangchen. In the future, we will be able to seize the initiative. Kim Daoist, you need to do your best."
Jin Zhixing said, "Yes, Kim will do his best."
The Daoist Xian Ding then asked casually, "Oh right, how is your understanding of the remnant seal?"
Jin Zhixing's heart trembled slightly, but his expression didn't change. He said, "No progress yet."
The Daoist Xian Ding grunted and didn't say anything else. The golden light on this incarnation dispersed outwards, and it disappeared without a trace.
