Zong Shou’s expression changed as he solemnly handed the two diagrams to Shen Yuexuan.
“Look at them and then tell me your feelings about it…”
Shen Yuexuan was originally really curious about Zong Shou’s change in attitude.
Seeing Zong Shou pass it over, Shen Yuexuan hesitated slightly and picked it up.
At the start, he knew that the item was unusual. However, when he fully focused and studied it, his expression became solemn.
Shen Yuexuan’s formation attainments were much stronger than Zong Shou’s. A while later, his hair felt dumb and his body was swept with a cold chill.
A long while later he came back to his senses, “There shouldn’t be such an amazing item in the world! It should be from other regions, right? Who knew that the region outside the region existed.”
Deep in thought, he said, “The Dao Soldier cultivation method and formation on the Imperial Demon Slaying Records are not bad. They should be the original form of your Spirit Changing and Source Ocean Demon Slaying Warriors? How amazing. I am not that knowledgeable in this area and only know that this formation might exceed the limit of the End Realm. Next will be the Imperial Celestial Slaying Records. It should have recorded how to craft a top God Treasure. If it really can be refined, it might be half a step to Heaven Opening. It is also a rare Killing God Artifact. Looking at the diagram, it isn’t to make a flying knife but a bottle gourd, Celestial Slaying Gourd…”
“You also think that?”
Zong Shou’s eyes lit up but then they became filled with helplessness, “What a waste… not only is the artifact fetus hard to find. It is tough to refine too. Although there is the blueprint, the chance of actually refining it is really small.”
“That might not be the case. Actually, this has already recorded the complete artifact spirit technique.”
Shen Yuexuan broke into a smile and then his expression became serious, “Speaking of which, Your Majesty actually trusts me so much to share this with me. You believe that I won’t reveal its secrets?”
Especially the Dao Soldier cultivation method which could be said to be the foundations of Great Gan.
Zong Shou shook his head. The power one had was always limited. If he was a narrow hearted and selfish person, he wouldn’t be able to understand the secrets within even in hundreds of years. Using the help of many, along with the experience of other talents, only then could he shorten that time.
The person in front of him was worth his trust.
He neglected Shen Yuexuan’s words and took in a deep breath, “In other words, the artifact fetus isn’t as valuable as I think?”
“That’s not true! It should be as strong, however, the difference in the material will affect the capabilities. Apart from that, these blueprints can become independent from the Imperial Destruction True Scripture and be merged to raise the quality. However, I think that it can only be done once the entire thing is completed…”
Shen Yuexuan said expressionlessly, but deep down he was emotional. No matter what, just for this trust, he would do something for Zong Shou.
Apart from that, it was his good fortune to be able to take a look at the Imperial Destruction True Scripture. One must know that the structure of this half a step God Artifact had an unbelievable benefit to his artifact refining skills.
“I will try to understand the foundations and spirit raising technique from within. If you find a suitable artifact fetus, you can craft it yourself. It should be really simple. Apart from that, Your Majesty is good at flying knives, right? Once this Qin Emperor Tomb matter ends, I will craft one more set for you.”
Zong Shou was delighted, he didn’t have much hopes for crafting the Celestial Slaying Gourd.
However, if Shen Yuexuan could craft a flying knife specifically for him, then his Six God Flying Knife’s strength would raise by several grades.
It might not have been as strong as the Blade Energy in the Records, but it would be much stronger than normal flying knives.
Apart from the Imperial Celestial Records, Mingxuan also left Zong Shou a jade scroll.
Inside it recorded what Mingri Xuan learned as well as his cultivation in the Fate Dao.
With just a sweep of spiritual sense, he didn’t pay much more attention to it. Although this item was precious, he had no time to comprehend it now.
As expected, it didn’t record what Mingri Xuan used to establish his foundations. It also caused the use of the scroll to drop by a grade.
After all, they were just making use of it. He definitely wouldn’t use the Source Life Breathing Technique to pass and analyze everything regarding Life to him. He also wouldn’t help him out like Dragon Shadow.
Zong Shou placed all these things down temporarily and continued to imprint the patterns and marks within the records into a set of Muluo Leaf Knives.
Actually, there were many parts that he himself couldn’t understand. However, once he carved it in, it raised the grade of the flying knife.
While he did that he also thought about Mingri Xuan’s goals.
“It really is weird. What is the reason why Mingri Xuan would make such a huge promise for us to defend this place?”
He said apologetically, “In the next few hours, we will probably face a lot of danger. This time I have dragged all of you down.”
By ‘All of you’, he was referring to just Shen Yuexuan and Yuan Wushang. It didn’t include Su Xiaoxiao.
The latter’s lips curled up and lightly rolled in her eyes as she looked angrily at him. “What else could he be planning? He just wants us to be a target in the open to attract those Qi Cultivators and corpse generals! Then, it will be easy for him to do his things in the dark…”
Zong Shou burst out laughing. What Su Xiaoxiao said was basically similar to what he was thinking.
Yuan Wushang had a calm expression. “Drag us down? It is not like the two of us didn’t get any benefits. What I am most curious about is what did Xi Zi leave in this altar that year?”
When he said those last few words he looked directly at the center of the sky altar.
There was 1,000-foot giant tripod, but at this moment, it had been flipped around.
A billion kilogram Heaven Worshipping Item and three feet facing the sky, pressing down onto the altar.
The restrictions were connected as to the sky altar as one. It was simple. However, even in the eyes of a top formation master like Shen Yuexuan, he wasn’t able to break it.
If one forcefully broke the formation, it would cause the restrictions within the altar to collapse and be unable to counter the Dragon Formation…
This was also the reason why Mingri Xuan and the Qi Cultivators were unable to forcefully obtain the item within the tripod.
Zong Shou tested it just now. The formation should have been using the Mysterious Golden Life Book as its foundations.
As long as one was listed in it and was in the first 30, one could break the restriction and obtain the item that Xi Zi had left.
However, Zong Shou didn’t instantly obtain it but waited, waiting for a person to arrive.
As expected, moments later a petite looking woman stepped over from afar.
“Mingri Xuan’s Master had a legacy artifact which was stolen by Great Qin and buried in the palace. It must be one of the keys to reviving the Emperor. Although this person had entered Xianyang City a day earlier, Xufu defended against him and didn’t give him any chance at all. This was why he would set off this altar. He predicted that the changes here would draw us over.”
The person who came was Lin Xuanxuan. With just a few sentences, their doubts were solved.
Her brows were filled with cold unhappiness.
“He also predicted that we had to defend this place!”
Zong Shou looked outside the altar only to see that the second formation core that Xi Zi had made was slowly eating into the Dragon Formation.
If this went on, no matter how unwilling Xufu was, he had to react.
Even if his main body couldn’t come over, he would have to send experts over.
With all his doubts and questions solved, Zong Shou asked, “Senior Master, how important is that legacy artifact to Mingri Xuan? Also, does Senior Master know why Master Xi Zi entered the tomb?”
He said so respectfully and didn’t dare to show any disrespect at all. Lin Xuanxuan was the youngest out of the sisters, but be it cultivation or talent, she was not behind them. Xi Zi gave her much hope and after Yuanjing and Xuanshuang stepped into End Realm, Lin Xuanxuan held the hopes of the entire Common People’s Path in the palm of her hand. She was the person who had the most hope after Wei Xu to live forever.
However, Lin Xuanxuan herself wasn’t anxious. She still had 3,000 years of lifespan. With Common People Path’s current strength, there was no need for her to rush things.
That was the effect of the Mysterious Golden Life Book. Doubling lifespan would also increase numerous possibilities.
Although it wasn’t a killing weapon, it was indeed a half a step to Heaven Opening god Artifact.
“That legacy artifact could increase his lifespan. It can even increase luck and reduce the jealousy of the heavens. So, how important do you think it is?”
Someone good at divination had to be really talented. It wouldn’t be easy to cultivate. The only obstruction would be that the heavens wouldn’t allow them to exist together.
Lin Xuanxuan looked at the giant tripod, “As for why he entered, he didn’t tell us. However, I guess that it should have something to do with the Cloud World’s Heaven Opening God Artifact. But, I am not sure what the exact situation was.”
While speaking, she pressed towards the tripod with her hand. She didn’t use much strength and opened it.
The artifact inside was a huge variety, giving off Life Energy that had a totally different atmosphere from Xianyang City. It was unbelievably thick. There were even a few within that could compare to the Nine Hole Life Essence Stone in Zong Shou’s hand.
There were pills, wine, various spiritual ingredients, and a few treasures.
Without exception, they contained within great life energy. They were mixed into one, unable to split apart.
“So, that is the case!”
Zong Shou just thought about it a little and understood.
Within this small sized world, the death energy was too thick! However, the world was balanced; Yin and Yang opposed one another. Laws like that were balanced.
If there was death, then there was life. The Dragon Formation twisted the laws but it was unable to wipe out the life energy.
