The Flying Chariot drove through the sea of clouds. Soon, a nine-story high platform made of white jade appeared in front of them.
At this moment, Zhang Yu's gaze shifted. Not far away, there was another black jade platform that was similar in shape, facing it from afar. Turbid air currents could be seen swirling back and forth between the two platforms, as if they were evolving into Yin and Yang.
He had read the ancient records and knew that these were the "Viewing the World" and "Seeking the Heavens" platforms. As far as he knew, the "Clear Sky Astrolabe" was on the Viewing Platform.
Since the "Seeking the Heavens" platform was on the same level as the Viewing Platform, there should be a similar magic artifact on it. However, there was no record of it in the ancient records. Even if there was something inside, it must be something extremely important.
After the Flying Chariot approached, it stopped in front of the Viewing Platform. Immediately, a Deity on duty came forward to welcome them. He bowed and said, "Shouzheng, the three court deacons are waiting for you in the hall. Please follow me."
Zhang Yu nodded and entered the large platform under the guidance of the deity. At this moment, he could see that the entire large platform was set up with extremely tight restrictions. One could only walk up the stairs from the bottom of the platform. It was impossible to escape through the air.
In fact, when he came over earlier, he also noticed that there was an extremely tight restriction array outside the large platform. However, it was not activated at this moment.
Going up to the ninth level of the platform, he entered a vast hall. Inside the hall, there were many coiled dragon pillars. The dragons on the pillars weren't decorations, they were actually Dharma Artifacts that had been infused with the essence of dragons. At this moment, when they saw him enter, pairs of dragon eyes looked at him.
He glanced at them and then looked up at a tall altar in the hall. He saw Wu Qingxu, Zhong Weiwu, and Dai Gonghan standing there. When the three of them saw him enter, they bowed their heads.
Wu Qingxu said, "Zhang Shouzheng, please come up to the altar."
After Zhang Yu returned the greeting, he went up the stairs. However, when he reached the top, he found that other than the few of them, the surroundings were empty. There was nothing else.
At this time, Dai Gonghan said, "Gentlemen, since Zhang Shouzheng is here, we can start spinning the astrolabe."
Wu Qingxu nodded and took a few steps forward. He took out a talisman from his sleeve and threw it into the sea of clouds below. The talisman turned into a black dot and fell down, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
After a while, as if pushed by some force, the sea of clouds below the platform began to surge and rumble. After a while, circles of light formed by golden Taoist talismans slowly rose from the sea of clouds. This was a huge golden disc, and countless stars flickered inside. It was boundless, as if it covered the entire sea of clouds, and even more so, as if it contained all the stars in the sky.
At this moment, Daoist Zhong took two steps forward. First, he calculated in silence. Then, he chanted a spell. Finally, he pointed down and the astrolabe began to rotate.
At this time, a clear light bloomed on the astrolabe and instantly shone into the lower layers. At first, they could still see it, but later on, it became difficult to see it clearly. This was because the brilliance had integrated into the light of the sun that was everywhere.
After a few breaths of time, a pattern of latitude and longitude appeared on the astrolabe. Then, they saw a very conspicuous red light at a certain point where the latitude and longitude intersected. It was very dazzling and eye-catching.
Wu Qingxu said coldly, "Sure enough, there is."
He turned his head and said to Zhang Yu, "Zhang Shouzheng, the Xuanting have already agreed that if we find traces of the enemy during this investigation, we must quickly eliminate them. We will leave this place to Zhang Shouzheng."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Leave this thing to me." He stood silently for a moment. Then, two rays of light flew from the distance and fell into his sleeve.
Daoist Zhong pressed down with his hand. The astrolabe immediately released a ray of light that shone all the way to the lower layers. He said, "Zhang Shouzheng, I have temporarily used the astrolabe to conceal the secrets of heaven. This person is difficult to detect. Follow this light and you will be able to find this person."
Zhang Yu nodded and took a step forward. In an instant, he broke through the layers and arrived at the lower layers. He looked at the land below but was not in a hurry to move. Instead, he waved his sleeve and released the "Void Calamity Pearl". Then, he pointed at the pearl and waited for it to release a faint light. Then, he rode a ray of clear light down.
On the observation platform, Dai Gonghan watched for a while and muttered, "I have observed this person's Qi. It is very similar to the Shangchen cultivator, Yan Qiying."
Daoist Zhong made a gesture and said, "Xuan Zun is right. It is this person. This person is quite skilled. Shangchen must have given him a lot of good things to let him sneak into the inner layer. I wonder if Zhang Shouzheng can defeat him."
Wu Qingxu did not speak.
In his opinion, Yan Qiying was only one person. Moreover, he was in Tianxia's territory. Even if Zhang Yu could not defeat him, he could still send others to capture him. The result would be the same.
On the inner layer of the land, a young cultivator in his twenties was sitting on a high rock. He was wearing a gray and white Daoist robe with rhomboid patterns.
At this moment, he raised his head and looked at the clear light that was rushing towards him. He muttered to himself, "Did you notice?" Then, he smiled coldly. "However, there is only one person. Are you looking down on me?"
He shook his sleeves and stood up from the rock. He raised his head and looked at the sky. His eyes suddenly flashed and a divine light shot towards the sky.
However, he frowned immediately. He felt a powerful mental light pressing towards him like a mountain and a sea.
This was because he had activated Zhang Yu's "Divine Mirror" technique. If this technique had any malicious intent, it could immediately trigger a direct collision of magic power between the enemy and himself.
Although he believed that his magic power was not inferior to the person who came, he felt that there was no need for him to act according to the other party's wishes. He immediately used the Air Travel Spell to restrain his magic power. His Daoist robe flashed and immediately released a brilliant light. He used this magic tool to withstand the incoming mental light.
At this moment, he also keenly grasped the opportunity. Taking advantage of the fact that Zhang Yu's mental light had not yet been retracted, he released his originally restrained magic power and rushed towards the latter like a raging wave.
At this moment, Zhang Yu's falling momentum did not change. The Daoist robe he personally refined first received the divine light from Yan Qiying's two eyes, and then he abruptly activated the "Zhu Heng Chang Yi" technique.
Once this technique covered the opponent, the opponent had to maintain their magic power within a certain limit. The slightest change would cause the body to collapse. Yan Qiying's magic power was first restrained and then raised. This was undoubtedly beneficial to the activation of the technique.
Yan Qiying was experienced and immediately sensed this dangerous change. He knew that it was not advisable to activate the technique at this moment. Otherwise, an even more violent change would occur. At once, he threw out a "Harm Dispelling Talisman" he had brought from Shangchen.
As soon as this talisman appeared, traces of light appeared on it. In a breath's time, it collapsed on its own and turned into ashes. It had taken the damage for him.
With the help of this talisman, his magic power was not hindered in the slightest. It turned into layers of clouds and greeted Zhang Yu. But at this moment, a warning sign appeared in his heart. Then, he saw two sword lights reflected in his eyes. It was Zhang Yu's Cicada Cry and Shocking Sky Sword. Before his magic power could reach him, the two swords had already killed in front of him.
Yan Qiying's expression changed slightly. His gaze was sharp, but he still maintained his original offensive. This was because he knew that he could not retreat at this time. If he retreated, he would instantly fall into a passive position.
He still had a magic weapon to protect him, and there was another killing move hidden in his magic power. As long as Zhang Yu was hit head-on, he could attach it to the latter's body and lead it down. Then, he would make a gesture to activate it depending on the situation of the battle.
Zhang Yu's eyes flashed slightly. He saw that the opponent did not dodge, and he did not dodge either. He let the magic power invade his body, and he urged the two swords, Cicada Cry and Shocking Sky Sword, to slash on Yan Qiying's body at this time.
At this moment, Yan Qiying also threw out the last two "Harm Dispelling Talismans". As soon as these two talismans were thrown out, they were cut in half in an instant, but they also helped him avoid the attack.
However, the attack of the flying swords would not stop here. After the first attack failed, they turned into light again. One from the front and one from the back, they blocked his escape route and slashed inward.
At this moment, with the help of the two talismans, Yan Qiying had already avoided the most dangerous moment, and his spiritual power had also recovered.
He knew the power of the flying swords, and he also knew that it was not a good idea to choose to dodge at this moment. Firstly, he might not be able to dodge the flying swords. Secondly, he might be restrained by Zhang Yu and be killed by the sword light instead. Therefore, with a move of his mind, two crystal jade-like light curtains appeared outside his body.
This was the spiritual weapon "Liyuan Jade Disc" that he cultivated with his life. It had the magical effect of shifting space. The two flying swords slashed up, but they instantly sank into one of the jade discs, and at the same time, they flew out from the other side. The two jade discs also kept spinning around his body, guiding the flying swords outside.
Seeing this, Zhang Yu didn't care. Just now, relying on the opponent's spiritual power head-on, he had already seized the initiative. Now, he was the main attacker, and the opponent was the main defender. This was his turn. If one method didn't work, then he would use another method.
At the same time as the sword slashed, he then activated the "Illusionary God Slash", not giving the opponent any time to breathe.
Of course, the opponent must have a way to reverse the attack and defense, but usually, there wouldn't be many of these methods. It was a winning move that used up one point. When these methods were used up, they could only be slaughtered by the opponent. And if he could find an opportunity before the opponent used this method, then he could kill the opponent in one breath.
Yan Qiying had just dealt with the flying swords when he saw two bright lights shining into his mind.
As a True Cultivator, his mind cultivation was stable, and he had a special spell to resist the mind. Therefore, he didn't lose his mind, but he was suppressed to the point that he couldn't counterattack.
At this time, several dazzling streams of light that were like cicada wings flew over. This was the "Cicada Wings Flowing Light" technique. He originally wanted to use the "Jade Wall of Liyuan" to block it, but he felt that something was wrong. He felt that things were definitely not that simple, so he took out a defensive technique, and a glass-like Qi light flashed on his body.
Sure enough, the moment the cicada wing light approached the "Jade Wall of Liyuan", it suddenly flashed and jumped into his inner circle out of thin air, directly slashing on his defensive aura.
He was slightly shocked in his heart. Originally, he wanted to defend for a while, and then counterattack when Zhang Yu's attack gradually weakened, but now he realized that he couldn't let the opponent continue attacking like this.
He decisively thought of something in his mind, and the strand of Qi hidden on Zhang Yu's robe suddenly activated. Suddenly, a seven-colored mist of light lit up, and actually wrapped Zhang Yu inside!
