The Heaven-shattering: Holding the Jade Disc of Creation

Chapter 406: Thoughts Exposed
Zhang Shuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the Yingluo siblings regain their spirits. He had no intention of crushing their faith in Taoism. If the Tianjiaoyi siblings were to ever lose their spirits because of him, that would be a disaster.

Willow God was watching this scene from the side. Looking at the Sky-Horned Ant brother and sister who had regained their spirits, he had a little more recognition for them. If they lost their fighting spirit after this blow, they would never be able to become Immortal Kings in the future.

"Shuo'er, now that we're done here, it's time for us to go back." God Liu said to Zhang Shuo.

"Yes, I understand." Zhang Shuo responded, then looked at the old horn ant, bowed slightly and thanked him:
"Thank you for your care during this period. I am very grateful."

“Hahaha, you’re welcome, young friend. I’m just repaying the favor of the ancestral spirit. Besides, it’s a blessing to have favor with a genius like you.” The old horn ant crossed his arms and laughed heartily.

"Senior, you are too kind."

Zhang Shuo smiled modestly, and then said to Yingluo and Qiongjie: "I have troubled you both a lot during this period. We will meet again if we are lucky enough."

"Hehe, after I break through my own limits, I will look for you to compete with me again. You can't refuse then!" Qiong Jie smiled confidently.

"Sure." Zhang Shuo naturally would not refuse this small request.

"I hope that when we meet next time, we will both become immortals." Yingluo smiled gently, her heroic and beautiful face was especially gentle, her tone was gentle and sweet, not at all like a female tyrant as usual, which made Qiongjie and Lao Tianjiaoyi's eyes twitch.

"Yeah." Zhang Shuo nodded, then looked at Fairy Qingyue beside him and said hesitantly: "Qingyue, you..."

"I have obtained the permission of the God of Willow. I will go with you from now on." Fairy Qingyue interrupted Zhang Shuo and stood beside the God of Willow with a smile.

Seeing this, Zhang Shuo said no more and also walked to the side of Liu Shen.

"Thorn..."

God Willow nodded to the old Sky-horn Ant, then waved his jade hand, and with a flash of fairy light, he tore open a deep space passage and brought Zhang Shuo and the others into it.

Infinite Heaven

The God of Willow took Zhang Shuo and Fairy Qingyue across several thirty-three heavens and came to a mysterious place with stone pillars.

"This is... the North Sea Stone Forest. Could it be that the complete Immortal Sutra is hidden here?" Fairy Qingyue said as she looked at the stone forest in front of her.

Willow God nodded slightly and explained: "This is a secret trial realm. These stone pillars have the inheritance left by the powerful people of past generations. In the deepest part of the secret realm, there is an ultimate trial place, where there are several immortal king-level inheritances, including the Immortal Sutra.

The Sky-Horned Ants' Immortal Sutra inheritance was obtained from here, and as far as I know, they only obtained the inheritance of the human realm, and the immortal realm inheritance is still hidden here.

Shuo'er, your body has been developed to the extreme. There are very few body-refining scriptures in the world that can help you continue to develop the potential of your body. The Immortal Scripture is the best choice, so you must obtain this body-refining immortal scripture!"

Zhang Shuo heard this with a serious expression, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Sister Liushen, I will definitely get the complete inheritance of the Immortal Sutra!"

"Yes." Willow God nodded, believing that Zhang Shuo would definitely be able to obtain the Immortal Sutra. Then she looked at Fairy Qingyue beside her and said:
"Qingyue, you have already cultivated the Nirvana Reincarnation Technique to the extreme. If you want to make further breakthroughs, you need to comprehend various great ways. Only by embracing all rivers and seas can you open up new paths. There are many inheritances here. You can try them out and perhaps you will get some inspiration."

Fairy Qingyue heard this and couldn't help but say gratefully: "I understand. Thank you for the guidance of God Liu."

Willow God shook his head and said, "Don't be so polite, you are the top genius in our world, and your growth is a good thing for our world.

From now on, only the two of you can go in. I will not follow you."

Zhang Shuo was stunned when he heard this and asked, "Sister Liushen, why can't we go together?"

Willow God explained: "This is one of the inheritance sites of my world. If someone of my level goes in, it will cause a bad influence. This is also one of the means to preserve the inheritance, so you need to work hard next."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shuo and Fairy Qingyue looked at each other silently and walked into the stone forest side by side.

Beihai Stone Forest
The stone forest is magnificent, with one thick stone pillar after another inserted into the sea and exposed above the water. They are extremely huge and arranged together, forming an extremely magnificent scene.

These stone pillars are more like mountains than boulders because they are so huge.

However, they are not in the shape of mountains, but irregular stone pillars, some of which stand like pillars, while others rush towards the sky like swords.

The huge stone pillars, some soaring in the sky like a real phoenix, and some lying on the sea like a crouching dragon, are of different shapes and each has its own charm. The whole body is covered with a layer of light golden glow, and the fairy air is floating in the air, which looks extremely mysterious.

Beihai Stone Forest is very vast and not deserted at all. It contains a large amount of inheritance and attracts many young geniuses and famous strong men.

Therefore, huge cities were built deep in the stone forest, and there were more than one, making this place more prosperous.

"Qingyue, let's go over there. There are some superb peaks in the stone forest. There are inheritance marks left by immortal monks and the most powerful immortals. Let's go and give it a try. Maybe we can get some useful inheritance."

Although Zhang Shuo and Fairy Qingyue have no shortage of top-level inheritances, seeing more different inheritances can broaden their horizons, and perhaps they can draw inferences from one instance to another and gain special inspiration.

"Okay." Qingyue responded with her hands behind her back and a sweet smile.

The two walked side by side, one talking about her recent situation, the other sharing his insights into the Nirvana Reincarnation Technique. The two chatted and laughed all the way to the depths of the Beihai Stone Forest.

Zhang Shuo and the others naturally looked down upon the stone forest inheritance on the periphery. If they were going to climb up, they would go to the stone forest with the immortal inheritance.

"Zheng!"

Not far away, a towering stone peak was shrouded in sword energy. The sword was clanging, and the sharp aura was raging across the world. Various runes were shining in the dazzling sword light.

It is an extraordinary peak, with the mark of immortality and can help people attain enlightenment, but the prerequisite is to climb to the highest point.

Zhang Shuo's eyes flashed with a gleam of light. He found that the sword intent was a little special. Then he sent his powerful divine consciousness towards the extraordinary peak, trying to sense the essence of that mysterious power.

"Zheng!"

The next moment, a clear sword sound rang in his mind, followed by a sharp pain from his soul, and his divine consciousness was destroyed.

"What kind of sword intent is this? I feel like I'm falling into the abyss!"

Zhang Shuo frowned slightly and rubbed his temple. Although the loss of a little divine consciousness would not have a big impact on him, the feeling of being surrounded by endless calamities was really uncomfortable. "Such a powerful sword intent, it feels a bit like the legendary Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique." Fairy Qingyue also sensed the sword intent. She had much more experience than Zhang Shuo and could judge some clues.

"The Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique, is it the Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique that is known as one of the three most powerful sword techniques?" Zhang Shuo said in surprise.

“The three most powerful sword techniques? Is there such a saying? But the Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique is indeed very powerful. It is the strongest sword technique of the Immortal King level.” Fairy Qingyue had never heard of the three most powerful sword techniques, because this saying had not been spread in the Ancient Era of Immortals.

"Um... that... the three great sword techniques are a term I created after I learned some knowledge of kendo, just for my own entertainment." Zhang Shuo explained.

"Self-created...what are the three sword techniques specifically?" Fairy Qingyue asked curiously.

"The three great sword techniques are the Grass Sword Technique, the Soul Sword Technique, and the Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique. I believe these three sword techniques are the three most powerful sword techniques in the world."

The Wang Family Immortal King's Yuanshen Sword Art is the current mainstream name. As for the Yuanshen Sword Art's other name, the Quelling Rebellion Art, it has just emerged and has not yet spread, so Zhang Shuo still uses the name Yuanshen Sword Art.

“The Grass Sword Art should be the innate magic of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass that blocked the four immortal kings!
The Wang family Immortal King's Yuanshen Sword Technique successfully killed the Immortal King, as well as the legendary Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique.

The three sword techniques are indeed extremely powerful and different from each other, so it seems appropriate to call them the three great sword techniques." Fairy Qingyue quickly understood the meaning of the three great sword techniques and thought the term was quite interesting.

"Since that Chaojue Peak has the inheritance of the Immortal Tribulation Sword Art, let's go and take a look!" Zhang Shuo's mind is now full of the Immortal Tribulation Sword Art. This is one of the three most powerful killing techniques, and he wants it very much.

"Well, let's go!" Fairy Qingyue was also very curious about the Immortal Tribulation Sword Technique. She also wanted this top-level killing technique.

The two of them arrived at the foot of the mountain and walked up the steps. They felt an overwhelming sense of sword power pressing down on them, as if there was a supreme immortal sword hanging over their heads, ready to fall at any time.

However, Zhang Shuo and the other two were not ordinary geniuses. They climbed to the top of the mountain despite the astonishing pressure from the sword intent.

When they stepped over the last step, all the pressure disappeared into thin air, leaving only a sword-shaped mark suspended in front of them, filled with sword runes, explaining the mysteries of swordsmanship.

The two of them sat cross-legged in it, analyzing the runes in the sword mark and gained a lot of inspiration and the secrets of the Immortal Tribulation Sword Art.

It turns out that the True Immortal cultivator who left this mark was a sword immortal, but he did not practice the Immortal Tribulation Sword Art. However, he had seen the Immortal Tribulation Sword Art, and based on his lifelong understanding of the sword, he tried to restore the Immortal Tribulation Sword Art himself.

Although it was not successfully restored, it did imitate some of the true meaning of the Immortal Tribulation Sword Art and has 20% of the power of the original, which is not weak.

Zhang Shuo and Fairy Qingyue looked at each other and thought it was a pity, but they didn't care too much about it. After all, this sword technique was not weak and there were still some gains.

At the same time, due to the pressure of the sword intent they suffered while climbing the mountain, coupled with their extraordinary ability to comprehend the truth, they directly comprehended the essence of this "Pseudo Immortal Tribulation Sword Art", quickly got started, and have begun to use the Immortal Tribulation Sword intent.

Next, the two of them climbed to the top of the mountain one after another. The super peaks they chose were all the inheritances left by the famous immortal masters in the primitive ancient world. Both the inheritance and the enlightenment of the Tao left by these masters were of great help to Zhang Shuo and the others, so they gained a lot along the way.

The successive ascents of Zhang Shuo and the other person to the summit shocked the ancient world cultivators who were also looking for opportunities in the Beihai Stone Forest. Those extraordinary peak inheritances that they could only look up to were being reached by others one after another as easily as taking something out of a bag. The gap was really too huge.

"Oh my god, that gorgeous fairy seems to be Fairy Qingyue!"

"Who is that man? What family is he from? Why have I never heard of him?"

"Why does it feel like that man has a close relationship with Fairy Qingyue?"

Soon, the crowd focused their attention on Zhang Shuo. Fairy Qingyue was too famous, and no one could ignore the appearance of a strange man next to such a gorgeous fairy.

Suddenly, Zhang Shuo felt a chill on his back, as if countless knives were stabbing him.

He released his senses and immediately discovered that many talented monks had gathered nearby, staring at him with unfriendly eyes. He then glanced at the stunning Qingyue beside him and understood the reason.

"It seems that I am going to become the public enemy of the younger generation."

Facing the unfriendly looks from the geniuses, Zhang Shuo shrugged indifferently, smiled at Qingyue and said.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Qingyue took a quick look and immediately understood what had happened.

She held her elbow with her left hand, supported her chin with the jade fingers of her right hand, tilted her head, stared at Zhang Shuo with her sharp eyes, and said with her cherry lips slightly parted: "What's wrong? Could it be that someone is unhappy?"

Zhang Shuo immediately shook his head and said, "How is that possible? If you are not envied, you are a mediocre person. And if the price of being favored by the fairy is just to be envied, then I will give you as much as you can."

"Oh—really?"

Qingyue's beautiful eyes flashed with a cunning look, and she waved her green jade finger in front of Zhang Shuo, saying playfully:

"Then do you want me to help you? After all, if the name Sister Liushen gets out, I think more people will focus on you!"

Zhang Shuo was stunned when he heard this, then he shuddered all over, thinking that this was not good, he was careless.

If Fairy Qingyue is the white moonlight in the hearts of the younger generation, then the significance represented by God Willow is even more terrifying. He doesn't want to be targeted by a group of old monsters.

But he soon realized that he had overacted and secretly glanced at Fairy Qingyue beside him.

Fairy Qingyue looked at Zhang Shuo, first she covered her mouth and laughed, then suddenly thought of something, stared at Zhang Shuo in surprise, her beautiful eyes full of disbelief.

Zhang Shuo calmed down immediately after seeing this and explained, "There's nothing I can do. Liu Shen looks so young, calling her Master would be too old, so I just call her Sister."

"hehe!"

Qingyue stared at Zhang Shuo with her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed. She looked him up and down, then sneered, with a look that said, "Do you think I believe it?" Then she took a lotus step and headed towards the next super peak.

Zhang Shuo saw this and smiled bitterly. Even if she was a fairy, her IQ would be terrifyingly high when faced with such a thing.

There was no way out, Zhang Shuo could only pretend nothing had happened and follow Fairy Qingyue's footsteps.

At the same time, outside the Beihai Stone Forest, the Willow Goddess, who was hidden in the void, trembled. Her beautiful eyes slowly opened and a complex look flashed across them. She looked through the stone forest, at Zhang Shuo's figure, and sighed.
