The flying boat circled in the void for several days, but Zhang Yu and Zhu Feng did not find that region of heaven. Instead, the Evil Gods did not retreat after being chased away the last time. Instead, they continued to attack and harass the two of them.
Zhang Yu focused on steering the boat and did not make a move. He allowed Zhu Feng to chase them away every time.
Another few days passed. He glanced at the jade ladle. There was still no movement from it. If they stayed in the void for a little longer, things might not be good.
The evil outside the void was a small matter. The key was that Shi Cheng and Long Huai, who were trapped, might not be able to withstand it.
From Shangchen's intentions, this was obviously a trap. They would naturally keep the bait, but they should not think that the bait would have an easy time. Moreover, the people of Shangchen might change their minds at any time and directly make a move on the two of them.
At this moment, he pondered seriously to see if there was anything else that he could make use of or that he had overlooked. Not long after, his eyes moved slightly, and he suddenly had an idea.
He raised his head and said to Zhu Feng, "Shouzheng Zhu, the next time the Evil Gods appear, let me deal with them."
Zhu Feng saw that he was serious, and guessed that he must have some intention. She smiled slightly and said, "Alright."
After another two days, waves of evil Qi surged in from the outside. Then, he saw another Evil God's body coiled up in the void. The stars that filled the sky had all become eyes on its body.
Zhang Yu said, "They've come as expected."
He had long discovered that there was a certain pattern to the appearance of these Evil Gods, and they were not as random and chaotic as before. From the few times they had acted, they did not aim to kill. Instead, they seemed to be forcing the two of them to make a move.
And when looking at this together with Shangchen's previous actions, their intentions were obvious.
With a thought, Heart Light was released from his body. Instantly, a ray of clear light was released from the flying boat. It was brilliant and dazzling, just like the sun in the sky.
When Heart Light's powers reached a certain level, it could repel anything. Not only the Evil Gods themselves, but those black Qi that Zhu Feng did not dare to come into contact with the previous time also had no room to exist. They were all dissipated.
Zhu Feng watched from the side and was secretly amazed.
Among all the people she had met in the past, perhaps only Zhengqing could reach such a level with just mana. She hadn't seen the people in Shangchen and Xuanting fight, so she couldn't judge.
Zhang Yu retracted his light. Although it was only for a short period of time, when he looked again, there were no more Evil Gods in the void. He thought to himself, "Whether that's the case or not, we'll find out soon enough."
After Ying Chong trapped Shi Cheng and Long Huai, he had been sitting in the front hall waiting for news. At this moment, he suddenly sensed something and looked forward, only to see the boy in white appear in front of him. He asked, "Have you come?"
The white-robed boy nodded.
Ying Chong asked again, "Is it Zhang Yu?"
The white-clothed boy nodded vigorously again.
"Alright!"
Ying Chong looked to the side. The atmosphere there melted, and a long branch appeared from within. He split out an incarnation and followed it. Soon, he arrived at the heaven region where only the sea and sky existed.
He called out, "Is Daoist Jiao here?"
The shadow of a dragon swayed in the clouds above the sea. As the thin fog parted, Daoist Jiao stepped out from the clouds. He said with his sleeves behind his back, "Friend Ying, I'm here."
Ying Chong said, "Daoist Jiao, that Zhang Yu is about to enter the heaven region that I created. According to our agreement last time, I hope you can take him down."
Daoist Jiao smiled, "Looks like you've put in a lot of effort. Alright, since I've agreed to this, I'll do my best. Friend Ying, please show me the way."
Ying Chong took out the long branch and waved it. A ray of light appeared in front of him. There was a joint inside that led to another sky region.
Daoist Jiao looked at it and nodded, "You can go back. I'll do as we agreed."
Ying Chong nodded. Daoist Jiao was only here because of a favor, but he was not his subordinate. He could not make him do as he wished. He could only let him do as he wished. He bowed his head, and the incarnation disappeared.
Daoist Jiao smiled after he left. However, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he sat on the cloud. After a while, a Primordial Spirit walked out of his body and entered the sky region.
He had cultivated for a long time. It could be said that he had started cultivating since Ancient Xia. Later on, he followed Tianxia to this world. Along the way, he had seen many cultivators who were on par with him or stronger than him fall. However, he had been able to survive until now.
He had survived for so long because he had his own way of doing things. He was cautious.
Previously, he had seen the various records about Zhang Yu that Ying Chong sent to him. Although he knew that he might not have seen everything, just what he had seen was enough to shock him.
When he was in Gu Xia, he had seen many talented people. Just from the surface records, it wasn't as if there weren't people who were more outstanding than Zhang Yu in terms of cultivation. However, it was rare to see someone with such a battle record. Furthermore, Xuan Ting had sent this person here. How could there not be any backup plans? He did not believe it.
However, if he used his Primordial Spirit to fight, he could avoid any accidents. Even if his Primordial Spirit was damaged, it would not be a big deal. He could just turn around and cultivate. As for the fact that he did not give Ying Chong an explanation, a favor was a favor, and a life was a life. At most, he would find another chance to pay him back.
Another two days passed. Zhang Yu looked outside the sky. The Evil God that was supposed to come and disturb them did not appear this time. At this moment, he realized that the jade spoon on the table that had not been moved since they arrived in the sky swayed slightly.
Zhu Feng also noticed the movement here. Her beautiful eyes turned over.
Under the gaze of the two, the spoon moved again. It kept spinning left and right. In the end, it pointed to a certain place.
They raised their heads and looked over, only to see a heavenly domain enveloped in green light appear there.
Zhang Yu looked there and said, "It's here. Just as I expected, if the two of us did not reveal our identities, we would not be able to see this sky. "
When Zhu Feng heard him say this, she immediately understood. She said, "Zhang Shouzheng, are you saying that the Evil Gods attacked us because they wanted to know who came here? They only closed the door after confirming that it was Zhang Shouzheng and I?"
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "It should be so. Shangchen and the Evil Gods should be in cahoots. They are using the Evil Gods to determine who can be let into the sky and who should be excluded."
Zhu Feng laughed softly and said, "Zhang Shouzheng, it looks like the two of us are being underestimated."
In her opinion, they had not seen the sky for a long time, but opened the door after confirming their identities. This meant that the other party was confident in taking them down.
Zhang Yu did not say anything. However, he thought that it was not that Shangchen was underestimating them. Instead, it was that they valued them.
If the trapped Shi Cheng and Long Huai were the bait, then they were the fish that Shangchen wanted to catch. They did not open the door to the sky earlier because they were worried that the fish would be too big and break the net.
However, no matter how Shangchen judged them, since the door was open, they naturally had to go in and see what was going on. He first used Xuntian Dao Zhang to inform Xuanting. Then, he activated the Star Boat. Like a streak of light, the flying boat turned into a ray of light and rushed into the sky!
In the Clear Sky Sea of Clouds, Lin Tingzhi stood on the spell altar. On the table in front of him, there was a Yin Fish jade token.
The Yang Fish was already given to Zhang Yu to bring into the sky. Because of the Cymbidium Lucidum's protection, it was difficult for them to sense the existence of the other half of the Yang Fish. However, this did not mean that they were out of ideas.
He turned around and said to the spell altar, "Are the two of you ready?"
Zhong Weiwu and Chong Zhao, the two court officials, sat on the two corners of the altar. The former said solemnly, "The two of us are ready. Lin Tingzhi can make his move at any time."
Lin Tingzhi nodded. He did not plan to use the jade token to find the sky. Instead, he planned to use the heavenly divination method to find the sky.
Right now, the heavenly secrets were being disrupted by Planet Jiao Kongxing. However, Planet Jiao Kongxing was set up by them. Since they had a way to let this thing out, they naturally had a way to stop it.
As long as this thing stopped disrupting the heavenly secrets, Zhong Weiwu, Chong Zhao, and Yu Xuanzun could use the artifact to divine the whereabouts of the "Yang Fish". Then, they might be able to divine the location of the sky.
In reality, if they were facing a complete Cymbidium Lucidum, this method would not work.
However, they knew very well that most of the Cymbidium Lucidum's power had been used to attract the Huanyang school. The Heaven's Branch they were using should have been split off before this and given to the subordinates to use. It should not be connected to the main branch and its power should be limited. This way, there was a high chance that they would find it.
As long as they could find this place, Xuanting would send people to find it and destroy it. This was the best plan.
This was also their second layer of strategy. They did not completely place their hopes on Zhang Yu and Zhu Feng.
At this moment, Lin Tingzhi said to Zhan Kong, who was sitting to the side, "Zhan Kong, if you see a gap and see those Daoists, I hope you can bring them back in time."
Daoist Zhan Kong said solemnly, "I will do my best."
Lin Tingzhi nodded his head. He also walked up the stairs and stood at the top of the spell platform. Then, he formed a spell. As he activated the spell, the Planet Jiao Kongxing that was flying in the sky suddenly lost its momentum and gradually stopped.
Xuan Zun, who was guarding above, had already been taken care of. He did not let down his guard. Instead, he activated all the restrictive spells on the planet.
When Zhong Weiwu and Chong Zhao saw this, they placed their hands on a sundial-like magic tool in front of them and began to calculate Fang Tianyu's whereabouts with rapt attention.
Lin Tingzhi looked at the Planet Jiao Kongxing. Although there was a price to pay if he wanted to activate it again after it stopped, Tianxia could afford this price.
Most of the Xuan Zun in Shangchen should be helping Guyang and the other two control the Cymbidium Lucidum. Even if they found out about this, they would not be able to spare anyone to fight against them. As long as they could find that heaven before Shangchen reacted, they could win this game!
