Zhang Yu took the flying boat back to the upper level and quickly returned to the Shouzheng Palace. He shook his sleeves and several spiritual lights flew out. He returned the Star Boat, the Jade Pecking Crane, and the other magic items.
He stepped into the hall and sat down on the jade platform. He first regulated his breath for a while. When he came out of his meditation, he began to think about the battle just now.
He felt that against Heavenly Generals like Cheng Chao, Zhan Kong's method of controlling the momentum of heaven and earth and then killing them was the most convenient.
This way, not only could he borrow more power, he also did not need to use the Jade Pecking Crane. As long as Cheng Chao appeared, he could immediately kill him. No matter how hard he tried, he would not be able to turn the situation around. Moreover, once the momentum was controlled, even if there were more Heavenly Generals, he could take care of them all at once.
Furthermore, he also thought that if he were to fight against a cultivator who had cultivated to the realm of the coexistence of reality and illusion, controlling the momentum of heaven and earth seemed to be the only way to fight against him and have a slight chance of winning.
Therefore, it was not without reason that many senior cultivators were used to this method of fighting.
It was a pity that he had only cultivated for a short period of time and his supernatural powers had not reached such a level. Therefore, he could only use the method he was good at to fight.
He looked at the sea of clouds outside the hall. He was about to face an all-out confrontation between the two forces when he came down. In addition, as Shouzheng, he felt that he might encounter an opponent who had cultivated to the realm of the coexistence of reality and illusion.
This kind of cultivator had their divine energy destroyed. As long as they still had a body in the world, they would be able to plant their divine energy in an instant. As long as they still had their divine energy, even if their living body was destroyed, they could be reborn in an instant. Even if they were sealed, it would be useless. At worst, they could just give up on themselves. As far as he knew, there was no cultivator who had cultivated to such a level in the Abyss of Suppression.
Therefore, if one did not have enough supernatural powers, it was almost impossible to kill a cultivator of this level in a proper battle.
However, their living body could be destroyed and their divine energy could be exhausted. As long as their cultivation had not completely reached the level of "Birth, Decay, Growth, Transformation", they could be dealt with.
After all, regardless of whether one was a Daoist or a Daoist, they were still at the level of Xuan Zun. There was no difference in essence, only the results were different.
However, while it could be viewed as such in general, it still needed to be carefully considered when it came to the specific details.
When it came to himself, it wasn't that he didn't have any advantages. Plucking a top-notch achievement fruit did not mean that one's Heart's Light transcendence energy would increase. It only meant that one would possess a greater upper limit and potential, as well as more transformations in their abilities. One's own transcendence energy would still need to be cultivated bit by bit. At the very most, this person's cultivation would be faster and more stable.
As he continued to refine profound rations, his foundation of the Six Seals and his strength of heart had been steadily increasing. So as long as his strength of heart could reach a level where he could contend against or even suppress this person, then he would have the advantage in this aspect and would no longer be powerless to fight back.
Secondly, it was the divine ability. Ordinary divine ability transformations wouldn't be able to deal with such an opponent. He was far from that level. However, he still possessed the Word Seal and Eye Seal of the Seal of the Great Dao. These were his greatest trump cards at the moment. The Word Seal of the Great Dao could kill everything, while the Word Seal of the Great Dao could help him see the Place of the Void. If he wanted to deal with such an opponent, he could only think of a way in this aspect.
At this moment, he couldn't help but think of when he used the Six Righteous Heavenly Words to kill Cheng Chao and the others. At that time, after he finished reciting those words, he seemed to have touched something. He faintly sensed a lofty and ethereal place.
This situation wasn't recorded in any of the Daoist books that he had read before.
Now that he thought about it carefully, this should be something that the Seal of the Great Dao itself had shown him. After all, he was Xuanxiu, which was different from true cultivation. Not only that, but he also used the Seal of the Great Dao as his foundation to enter the Dao. He was walking a path that no one had ever walked before. He would definitely encounter some things that couldn't be found in the records.
He pondered for a moment. "Relying on the Great Dao, using the Great Dao's weapon. If this is the case, perhaps I can create a divine ability from this. If this divine ability is as I think, then …"
After some thought, he decided to try and come into contact with this place again. Thus, he retracted his thoughts and entered a meditative state again. He silently recited the words of the Great Dao in his heart.
In the depths of the void, in You City's main city.
Daoist Xian Ding was listening to the report from the people below. It was about the result of the battle between Shangchen and Tianxia.
Shangchen naturally wouldn't tell him the specific news. However, through the sporadic clues and some information from the Xuntian Dao Zhang, it wasn't difficult for him to determine that Shangchen had suffered a great loss in this battle.
In particular, so many people sent by Gu Shang had been captured. Even the sect master seemed to have been captured. Tianxia didn't deliberately hide this matter, so it was easy for him to find out.
After listening to the report, he waved his sleeve and dismissed the reporting disciple. He looked at the clone of a Daoist sitting below and said, "What do you think, Fellow Daoist Wang?"
Daoist Wang bowed and said, "Reporting to Exalted Xian Ding, after hearing this, I only have one thought. Shangchen seems to have the will but not the strength."
Daoist Xian Ding said, "That's right. It would be strange if Shangchen could fight Tianxia back and forth. Not to mention anything else, just the existence of the Yuandu Xuantu is of great help to Tianxia. Wherever he goes, he can have help at any time. Even if he sees that things aren't going well, he can also retreat in advance."
Daoist Wang said, "Shangchen's Cymbidium Lucidum needs to be used to summon Huanyang, but Tianxia can use the Yuandu Xuantu without any scruples. One side is light and one side is heavy. It's obvious who is superior. It's no wonder that Shangchen has been at a disadvantage until now."
Daoist Xian Ding said, "But this is only the beginning. No matter how much Shangchen suffers, it won't be enough to destroy their sect. As long as they summon Huanyang school back, the Cymbidium Lucidum can be released again. But Huanyang school also has a Dao Guarding treasure. It's hard to say what will happen in the future."
"Yes, the future is hard to predict." Daoist Wang sighed. Then, he probed, "I heard that we are also refining a Dao Guarding treasure?"
Daoist Xian Ding didn't mind revealing a bit. He knew that Shangchen was also contacting the people of You City, trying to win them over. It was possible that one or two of them would join them. What they needed now was to strengthen their confidence.
So he said, "That's right. Teacher is currently refining this treasure. Once he succeeds, You City will have something to rely on. We won't have to look at the faces of the two sides anymore."
Daoist Wang nodded. You City gathered people because there were no rules or restrictions here. But at the same time, You City didn't give people a sense of stability. But with a Dao Guarding treasure, things were different. It was very useful in stabilizing people's hearts.
But he was also worried. With the Dao Guarding treasure in You City, would the restrictions be tightened even further? That wouldn't be a good thing for the Xuan Zun below.
Daoist Xian Ding saw his worry. He said, "Fellow Daoist Wang, you should all cultivate steadily. Whether or not You City has a Dao Guarding treasure, there won't be any changes from before. Also, we shouldn't get involved in the struggle between Shangchen and Tianxia."
Daoist Wang understood. Today, Xian Ding invited him here to speak. It seemed that he wanted to pass on this news to him and the others in You City.
He thought for a moment and asked something that he and others wanted to know. "Exalted Xian Ding, may I be so bold as to ask, after this battle, if one side falls, where will You City go?"
Daoist Xian Ding knew what he was worried about. Only when both sides existed could You City exist. If one side was destroyed, then You City wouldn't be able to exist alone. He said lightly, "Fellow Daoist doesn't need to ask too much. When the time comes, there will naturally be a way to deal with it."
Daoist Wang was skeptical, but it was still too early to talk about this, so he listened for the time being.
Clear River Sky Plains was a desolate heavenly region of Shangchen. There was no land here, only a lake and sea. The water was blue and covered in fog all year round.
A crack opened in the sky, and Ying Chong walked out. He stopped above and said, "Is Fellow Daoist Jiao here?"
After he said this, a moment later, a huge dragon shadow appeared under the steamy sea. Then, the waves surged, and a Daoist in blue who looked to be in his forties with black hair and a long beard stepped out. He said casually, "What, Shangchen finally thought of looking for me?"
He stood with his sleeves behind his back and said, "Speak. What do you need me to do? Once I return the favor, I'll be free."
Ying Chong said, "What if I need Fellow Daoist to deal with Zhengqing?"
"Zhengqing?"
Daoist Jiao's expression froze. "You can't deal with him yourselves?"
Ying Chong said, "The three High Venerables are summoning Huanyang school. Only Fellow Daoist can deal with Zhengqing."
Daoist Jiao frowned. "Zhengqing isn't easy to deal with."
Ying Chong said, "If dealing with him was easy, I wouldn't have come looking for Fellow Daoist."
Daoist Jiao pondered for a moment and said, "Then to what extent do you need me to do? If it's just stalling him for a while, that's fine. "
Ying Chong said, "Can Fellow Daoist eliminate him?"
Daoist Jiao shook his head. "If I were to fight to the death with Zhengqing, I might win or lose. However, I know that Zhengqing has cultivated an incredible Abhijna. If I'm not careful, I'll be defeated and killed. This method is too risky for me. Fellow Daoist, please change your mind."
Ying Chong didn't insist. Instead, he said, "If Fellow Daoist isn't willing, then I'd like to ask Fellow Daoist Jiao to deal with another Daoist cultivator who sent the Void Fruit."
"Oh? Are you sure? "
Daoist Jiao was slightly surprised. Although he couldn't deal with Zhengqing, dealing with a Void Fruit cultivator was like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. If Ying Chong wanted him to return a favor, he was naturally more than willing.
Ying Chong said, "I'm sure. This person is worth it. If I were in charge of the Cymbidium Lucidum, I would definitely kill this person without hesitation."
Solemnly, Daoist Jiao's expression became more serious. Hearing Ying Chong's words, he knew that this person definitely wasn't a simple character. He stroked his long beard and pondered for a moment. Then, he said, "I've been here for a long time and haven't paid attention to the outside world. I'll have to trouble Fellow Daoist to tell me about this person's background, as well as what's happening outside."
Ying Chong nodded. "I'll have someone send these over soon." As he spoke, his figure gradually faded. Only his voice continued to ring out. "Although I need to deal with this person, now is not the time. When the time is right, I'll naturally inform Fellow Daoist."
