Within the Miao Hao Dao Palace, Zhong Weiwu, Chong Zhao, and Zhangsun Qian were refining talismans together. This was to prepare for the battle against Shangchen and Huanyang school.
With the Jiao Sky Star outside, the heavenly secrets of both sides were difficult to predict. However, to be able to become Xuan Zun and even Xuanting Court Enforcers, their methods were not only limited to prediction, but also far superior to their peers in terms of the changes of abhijna.
At this moment, a flying bird flew in from the outside. It stood on the golden copper frame in the palace and let out a few rhythmic chirps.
Zhong Weiwu's movements shifted slightly, showing that he was paying attention.
Chong Zhao said, "Zhong Tingzhi, what's the matter?"
Zhong Weiwu said, "It's nothing serious. Just now, Zhang Shouzheng was invited by Chen Tingzhi."
Chong Zhao was a little surprised, "Chen Tingzhi invited him, at this time …" He said in a low voice, "Chen Tingzhi rarely takes the initiative to meet with his peers. Zhong Tingzhi thinks that this is for the position of Court Enforcer? Currently, there is still an undecided position of Court Enforcer. "
Zhong Weiwu thought for a while, "With Zhang Shouzheng's achievements, if he can survive until after the war, then there is a possibility of him becoming Court Enforcer. However, isn't it too early to talk about this now?"
Chong Zhao said, "It's not impossible to place a bet in advance."
Zhong Weiwu thought for a while and shook his head, "Not necessarily. You have to know that Chen Tingzhi did not even enter Xuntian Dao Zhang in order to avoid suspicion. If he really wants to make connections privately for the position of Court Enforcer, what would the Chief Enforcer think if he knew? I think that Chen Tingzhi might express goodwill towards Zhang Shouzheng, but that is at most limited to the concern of a senior towards a junior. "
Zhangsun Qian, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, "That makes sense."
Zhong Weiwu looked at him and said, "Zhangsun Tingzhi, what do you think?"
Zhangsun Qian said lightly, "Chen Tingzhi might not have sought out Zhang Shouzheng for anything too complicated, but purely for the discussion of Dao."
"Discussion of Dao?"
Zhong and Chong looked at each other.
Chong Zhao said, "Chen Tingzhi is a Daoist who has plucked the fruits of coexistence of reality and falsehood, how can Zhang Shouzheng discuss Dao with him?"
But Zhong Weiwu had a thoughtful look on.
Zhangsun Qian said, "Zhang Shouzheng cannot do it now, but from the talent that Zhang Shouzheng has shown, it is very likely that he will be able to pluck the fruits of coexistence. If he is given some support now, then he and Chen Tingzhi will be able to discuss Dao in the future."
Chong Zhao questioned, "It is already surprising that Zhang Shouzheng can obtain the fruits of coexistence of reality, how can he obtain the fruits of coexistence of reality and falsehood so quickly?"
Zhangsun Qian said lightly, "He is Xuanxiu, he has mystical rations."
Chong Zhao was speechless.
These two reasons were really sufficient, he could not refute them.
Zhong Weiwu said, "Cen Chuan and Yuhang were also interested in the position of Court Administrator, but looking at Zhang Shouzheng's achievements now, as long as he does not lose himself, the vacant position will be his."
Chong Zhao said in a low voice, "If that is the case, then Xuan Fa will really be able to stand firm in Tianxia."
Zhong Weiwu said, "Let's think about this later. The great enemy is in front of us, we cannot put the cart before the horse."
Chong Zhao and Zhangsun Qian didn't speak any further. Since they were able to become court administrators, they naturally knew what was important and what was not. Not only was it inappropriate to investigate some things now, it would go against the general trend and was truly inadvisable.
After Zhang Yu left the Cloud Sea Observatory, he returned to the Shouzheng Palace. After sitting down, he took the jade scroll that Chen Tingzhi gave him, transferred his consciousness into it, and read the contents word by word.
Chen Tingzhi used to be a True Cultivator, but later on he switched to Hunzhang. But just by reading the description, one could see that he had an extremely high understanding of Hunzhang and even Xuanzhang. Everything he said was on the key points.
The most important part was the record of the achievement of the coexistence of Void and Reality.
The Xuanting Daoist book also had a detailed description of this. But it was rare that Chen Tingzhi recorded this as a Hunzhang.
Chen Tingzhi had already obtained the achievement of the coexistence of Void and Reality before he switched to Hunzhang. But after he switched to Hunzhang, he specially wrote a description of how to use Xuan Fa to obtain this method. In the description, he also quoted many opinions of his fellow Daoists that had not been recorded.
Zhang Yu read all of this and gained a lot.
To obtain the achievement of the coexistence of Void and Reality, one not only had to rely on sufficient divine Qi, but also had to break through one's own obsession.
This obsession was very difficult to overcome. Everyone had their own obsession, and Daoist cultivators were no exception. It could be said that Daoist cultivators who climbed to the top all had a heart of Dao. Achieving immortality and transcending eternity was what they hoped for. But without this obsession, they would not have the heart to improve.
Those Daoist books did not mention how to kill an obsession, so there were no written records. It was just the guesses of many Daoist cultivators before they tried to make progress. There were theories of forgetting one's emotions, severing one's benevolence, concealing one's heart, and so on.
But killing an obsession was a kind of obsession. If one wanted to kill it by force, the original obsession would be killed, but a new obsession would be born.
But if one did nothing and really had no obsession, then there would be no way to obtain a higher achievement. Therefore, many Daoist cultivators here proposed to do nothing. They believed that as long as one took advantage of the achievements and cultivated for a long time, then when the achievements reached a certain level, success would follow naturally. Anyway, Daoist cultivators had a long lifespan, so they had plenty of time to comprehend and cultivate.
Chen Tingzhi put forward another opinion here, which was also from the perspective of Xuanxiu. He believed that there was no need to care about things like breaking an obsession and killing an obsession, and that one could rely on the help of the Great Chaos to cross this level.
Of course, he did not just say that. He also gave a set of discussion and meditation methods that seemed feasible. It also mentioned that if a Daoist cultivator's foundation was not enough, then the corruption of the Great Chaos could make up for it, but the Daoist cultivator had to bear this burden.
But if a Daoist cultivator's foundation was solid and he could guard his heart, then not only could he borrow the power of the Great Chaos, but he could also not be corrupted.
However, Chen Tingzhi also made it clear here that this was his personal understanding and deduction. He himself had crossed this level before switching to Xuan Xuan, so he had not tried this step. Moreover, he advised the younger generation not to overestimate themselves. Often, one would think that their foundation was solid, but in fact, there were still flaws that were difficult to discover.
Zhang Yu pondered for a moment. Currently, in Tianxia, there were many Xuan Xuan Xuan Zun, but it seemed that other than Chen Tingzhi, no other Xuan Xuan Xuan Zun had obtained such achievements.
Was it because they had not accumulated enough, or did they not know this method? Or perhaps they knew this method, but did not do it out of caution.
He deduced that it was most likely because of the last reason.
Nowadays, most Monk Hunjang were Xuan Xuan Xuan cultivators. Although they borrowed the power of the Great Chaos during their cultivation, they still had a certain level of vigilance towards the Great Chaos. And to be honest, as a Xuan Xuan Xuan cultivator, they had an endless lifespan to slowly comprehend, so there was no need to rush to take this step.
However, how should he leave?
This was because he was a Xuanxiu, and he was also the one who opened up the way. If he plucked the fruits of his hard work, then the later generations would probably choose to use the hard work as the way to progress. Then, the pure Xuanzhang cultivators would no longer exist. It was not that he was obsessed with the Xuanzhang, but he believed that the Xuanfa should not only have the hard work of the Xuanzhang.
He thought for a moment. His divine Qi was not fully entrusted yet. He could only cultivate and comprehend while searching for a path.
After he finished reading all the explanations and was about to put away the jade slip, he found that there was still a sentence at the end. He looked at it carefully and found that it wasn't about the cultivation method, but just a message. After reading it, his heart couldn't help but tremble. At this time, the message slowly disappeared.
His eyes flashed slightly. After thinking for a moment, he put away the jade slip, focused his mind, and entered a meditative state to cultivate.
In the outer void, Shi Cheng and Long Huai were riding a flying boat to search for Shangchen's subordinate heavenly region.
Long Huai could be considered to have redeemed himself this time, and Shi Cheng was a Xuanxiu cultivator and could use Xuntian Dao Zhang to send messages at any time. Therefore, the two of them were arranged to be together this time.
However, Long Huai despised Shi Cheng for his low cultivation and was afraid that he would drag him down in battle. Shi Cheng felt that Long Huai was a sinner, so why was he so arrogant? Therefore, the two of them would often mock each other.
On the way, the light in the flying boat suddenly dimmed. The two of them raised their heads and saw that cold and slippery limbs and small eyes had replaced the cabin walls. All kinds of filthy auras were also spreading in the flying boat.
Long Huai sneered and said, "It's here again."
Ever since they entered the void, there were constantly evil gods coming to disturb them. However, once they counterattacked, they would immediately dodge, and it was not easy for them to chase after them.
The vast void was like a vast sea to these evil gods. If they hid in the depths, they could hide without a trace. They came out to search for Shangchen. If they chased after them, it would be fulfilling Shangchen's wishes. Even if they killed a few more evil gods, it would be useless.
At this moment, he let out a dragon roar from his mouth. The scene in front of him shattered layer by layer, and the interior of the cabin returned to its original appearance.
At this moment, Shi Cheng suddenly said, "Fellow Daoist Long, look over there."
Long Huai turned his head to take a look, only to see an empty space appear in the distance. His spirits were lifted, and he said with a hint of mockery, "I didn't expect Fellow Daoist Shi, a Mystic cultivator, to have such sharp senses."
Shi Cheng replied, "I'm sure Fellow Daoist Long has already experienced the power of my Profound Art."
Long Huai snorted.
Just like in the past, the two of them ridiculed each other. However, once they talked about Xuanxiu, Long Huai would usually take the initiative to shut his mouth.
There was no other reason. It was simply because he was restrained by Zhang Yu before being captured by Dai Gonghan. Moreover, both of them just so happened to be cultivators of the profound technique.
Actually, this wasn't a big deal. Not counting the clones of Hun Kong and the others that had appeared that day, he could push the blame to Zhang Yu and Dai Gonghan for bullying him, and he was too careless.
However, later on, he was almost killed by Zhang Yu in the Confinement Prison, and he was only able to escape by relying on the protection of the Confinement Prison. So, he was too ashamed to mention it.
He changed the topic and said, "Let's enter this empty space and take a look."
He urged the flying vessel, and it transformed into a ray of light that charged into this empty space. However, at the instant he charged in, Long Huai's expression changed, and he said, "Wait!"
