The jade scrolls on the table gradually piled up. One scroll was flipped open, and another scroll was opened. Zhang Yu stared at them. What he was looking at were the battle records of the cultivators who had achieved the achievement of the coexistence of truth and falsehood.
All of the documented jade scrolls were from the time of Ancient Xia. After arriving in this world, there were almost no records of such cultivators.
There was a reason for this. Because the few times these cultivators fought, they were not confrontations between cultivators of the same level. They could almost suppress their opponents with their mana. Therefore, there was no need to record it in the book. It was only a simple record of the event itself, and then it was glossed over.
But no matter what, it gave him a reference. Such records could not be found in the Shouzheng Palace.
Actually, this was quite normal. Who could cultivate to such a level would stay in the Shouzheng Palace to be a Shouzheng? Especially the Shouzheng of the past, his name and position could be taken away at any time. But once one reached the state of the coexistence of truth and falsehood, even if one did not have enough merits, as long as one's Dao and Xuanting were compatible, they would definitely be given a certain amount of courtesy and a corresponding title and position.
It was just that when he flipped through, he found a somewhat strange phenomenon. That was, the records of these cultivators all used fake names or other names to refer to them. They did not use their Dao names or their real names. This did not seem to be a taboo for the Venerable, but rather seemed to be deliberately avoiding their real names. There might be some reason that was not easy to explain here.
But fortunately, the records of the battles were not too vague. He could also peek at some things from his analysis. At least it was not without gain.
While flipping through the jade scrolls, he continued to refine the mystical rations every day, merging them into the lofty place to comprehend. He also gradually had some new ideas and insights about the Word Seal.
According to his previous thinking, if he wanted to fight against the cultivators of the coexistence of truth and falsehood, he could use the Word Seal to suppress and kill their living body. He could also use the Eye Seal to see the place where they resided in the void, and destroy their divine Qi.
If these two could be done at the same time, then he could kill such an opponent.
But this was the most ideal situation.
In fact, it was impossible for such an opponent to just stand there and let him do whatever he wanted. Even if he could, this so-called "at the same time" was not easy to deal with.
But now, he believed that such conditions could be created through the Word Seal.
Moreover, this kind of thing didn't have to be done during the war. It could be prepared in advance.
After a long period of contemplation, he looked toward the center of his palm. Streams of Spiritual Light gathered there, and very quickly, there was an edict flickering with golden light in his hand.
At the same time, he used the Word Seal to chant in his heart. He did not say it out loud, but a grand and mysterious sound rang out in the hall, and lines of words appeared on the edict. However, it only lasted for a few breaths before dispersing.
His eyes flashed slightly. Although his attempt this time had failed, he was not disappointed, because this proved that his idea was actually feasible.
In fact, he didn't have to rely entirely on his own mental strength to execute this imperial edict. He could refine an artifact to carry it and then imprint it onto it.
Thinking of this, he thought to himself, "Looks like I need to work hard for a while."
Within the Lu Zong Pavilion in the Qingqiong Land, Liang Yi looked at a spherical jade embryo in his hand. This was the true spirit of knowledge that he had created himself.
He had always felt that Xuanxiu should have grasped the method to create this kind of thing himself. This way, he would not have to rely on the Observer of Creation, or rely on True Cultivators to create it.
At his level, he could easily create this kind of thing, but it could not be used by the cultivators below, so he had been constantly deducing and improving it these days.
The final result he wanted to achieve was that when Xuanxiu needed this kind of thing, he only needed to refer to the method provided by Xuntian Dao Zhang to be able to create this kind of artifact himself. This way, he could break away from relying on True Cultivators or Creators.
However, he still felt that the object in his hand was not suitable, so he exerted force with his five fingers and crushed it. Then, he began a new attempt.
In the end, he was the Xuan Zun. After trying for more than a month, he finally created two true spirits of knowledge that met his initial wishes.
Although this thing was not very useful in the Xuan Zun, in the beginning, this thing could help cultivators understand themselves very well and master their own strength. Especially when a lot of cultivation knowledge could be obtained from Xuntian Dao Zhang, then it would be even more helpful.
As for whether Xuanxiu would rely too much on this thing, in his opinion, this could be restrained with certain methods. Moreover, cultivators who wanted to ascend to the upper realm would not be hindered by the existence of this item. If they were hindered, then it was either because they were not talented enough, or their heart was not firm enough to pursue the Dao.
He placed the two jade embryos on the table, called in a deity on duty, and ordered, "Call my two apprentice-nephews over."
The deity on duty bowed. After a while, two young cultivators came in and bowed to him, saying, "Greetings, Martial Uncle."
Liang Yi said, "This is the true spirit of knowledge that I created. Take it and try it. If you don't like it, you can remove it with just a thought later."
The two young cultivators did not hesitate. They walked forward and poured their own essence and blood into the two jade embryos. Then, the two jade embryos broke and turned into a wisp of mist that merged into their minds.
The two closed their eyes and felt for a long time. Then, one of the young cultivators opened his eyes and said excitedly, "Martial Uncle, this thing is very useful."
The other young cultivator hesitated for a moment.
Liang Yi looked at him and said, "If there's anything you want to say, just say it. I want to find the flaw through you."
The young cultivator cupped his hands and said, "Martial Uncle, then I'll be frank. I've tried it, and this true spirit of knowledge is very useful. However, I'm afraid that this thing is too useful and will become something that we rely on in the future."
Liang Yi nodded. He waved his sleeve, and after a flash of light, a dozen more jade embryos appeared on the table. He said, "Take these and give them to your fellow disciples. I want to know what they think after using them."
He did not plan to let everyone accept this thing immediately. He only wanted to try it out with his fellow disciples and juniors to see how effective it was.
If there was anything wrong with it, he could just destroy it without any repercussions. If there were more benefits to it, he would discuss it with Zhang Yu and try to promote it.
The two young cultivators looked at each other and accepted the order. After taking all the jade embryos, they bowed again and left the pavilion.
In Shangchen, in the front hall of the Rainbow Hall, Ying Chong was flipping through various reports. Suddenly, a spiritual light flew to the back hall. After he received it, he stopped what he was doing and went to the inner hall.
On the wide platform in the inner hall, there was a light screen that reached the sky. Three heavenly branches were faintly emitting green Qi. Their light reflected the sky, and mist rose like an inverted Milky Way. Guyang, Tian Hong, and Lingdu each sat under a green branch.
He came to the platform and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Venerable Ones. Do you have anything to say to us?"
Gu Yangzi said, "A few days ago, the three of us found the space where Huanyang was banished. However, there was no trace of anyone there. Huanyang school should have left there."
Ying Chong's expression did not change. This was also within his expectations. The place where Huanyang school was banished was not a good place. The possibility of Huanyang school remaining there was indeed not big.
Tian Hong Daoist said, "We will continue to follow the traces left by Huanyang school. However, we do not know when we will be able to find it. Friend Ying, please continue to take care of things outside."
Ying Chong nodded in agreement.
Lingdu Daoist then said, "Friend Ying, how is the outside world recently?"
Ying Chong said truthfully, "Xuanting used Yuandu Xuantu's help to find the whereabouts of my main and subordinate heavenly regions. Now, Gu Shang Pai has been defeated by Zhengqing. Fellow Daoist Shen has also been captured and brought back. The Big Dipper Divine Generals have also been killed."
Daoist Tian Hong Daoist heard this and was somewhat dissatisfied. He said, "It has only been such a long time. How did the situation become like this?"
Lingdu Daoist thought for a while and said, "Friend Ying, what do you lack?"
Ying Chong said, "If we can give you a part of the Cymbidium Lucidum …"
Tian Hong Daoist rejected him flatly. "No. In order to attract Huanyang school, we have to use every bit of the Heavenly Branch's power. What we gave you before has already slowed down our progress. Friend Ying, I don't care what method you use. You have to keep Tianxia outside the door. Don't betray our trust."
Lingdu Daoist said, "Friend Ying has always been meticulous in his work. The current situation is really difficult to deal with, but it is not his fault. How about this? Although we can't give you the Dao Suppressing Artifact, we can give you a decree. All the artifacts in Shangchen can be used by you. If you want to go to Shangchen City to borrow an artifact, we will allow you to do so. "
At this time, Gu Yangzi said, "During our search, the sect found a few unfamiliar heavenly regions. If the other sects want to hide, we can let them move into those heavenly regions. Tianxia won't be able to find them in a short time."
Ying Chong said, "What I mean is, we can borrow the power of the Evil God, but the Evil God will have to pay the price of the Ardent Yang Pill."
Lingdu Daoist said, "The things that Huanyang school left behind?"
Ying Chong said, "Yes."
Lingdu Daoist said, "Then give them all to them. These things have nothing to do with the Dao Suppressing Artifact. Fellow Daoist need not ask about them. You can deal with them yourself."
Ying Chong said, "I understand."
Daoist Tian Hong Daoist said, "If there is nothing else, Friend Ying can leave now."
Ying Chong cupped his fists and left.
Daoist Tian Hong Daoist waited for him to leave before saying, "I wonder if You City's Dao Suppressing Artifact has been refined yet."
Although they had given You City a lot of precious materials before this, they didn't want to borrow them for nothing. In case something went wrong, they would ask the three Grandmasters to step forward and borrow the refined Dao Suppressing Artifact.
Gu Yangzi Daoist said, "It hasn't been long. The Dao Suppressing Artifact hasn't been completed yet. Besides, now isn't the right time. Huanyang school hasn't been summoned back yet. You City won't give in so easily."
Daoist Tian Hong Daoist said, "Huanyang school has been exiled to an old place. Now it seems that there are signs of disturbance. Should we ask the three Grandmasters to step forward and investigate?"
Gu Yangzi Daoist thought for a moment and said, "Let's follow the traces left behind by this person first."
Since he said so, Tian Hong and Lingdu Daoist had no more objections. They sat down and sank their consciousness into the Cymbidium Lucidum again.
