Chapter 466: Line 4 of the Fate Palace, the plan to return to the Xuanhuang Realm!
Chapter 466: Fourteen lines of the Fate Palace, the plan to return to the Xuanhuang Realm!
The door of the memory palace could not be opened. Was it because my subconscious strengthened the memory seal? Or was there a mysterious existence controlling my fate? Did Qing Yuzi say that he did not win either, implying that it was related to the Xuanhuang Realm?
Zhao Xing opened his eyes and rubbed his temples. "Lao Qing has been in Xuanhuang Realm for a long time. He asked me to go back after leaving Chuanjie Tower. The reason was that after the [Battle of Karma], I have become Tang Monk, and everyone wants to take a bite."
"But I can only believe three-tenths of what he says!"
Of course, Zhao Xing would not completely trust Qing Yuzi. Ever since he dug out Lao Qing's treasure from Xuanhuang Realm, Qing Yuzi's style of doing things has not been open.
At first, he pretended to be the third level of the origin of the Purple God Mansion, and later became a big shot in the Samsara Temple, using himself to complete the resurrection ceremony, stealing the luck and treasures of the Dongyan Ancient Clan, and borrowing the way to become a god. If you think about it carefully, this guy also stole the Yanshen Tablet of the Temple and put the blame on the Dongyan Ancient Clan.
Qing Yuzi became a god based on the many treasures of the ancient Dongyan clan and the deaths or reincarnations of tens of thousands of people in the samsara realm.
Looking back on Qing Yuzi's path to becoming a god, we can say that he was skilled and bold, and that he had foresight... but it was certainly not glorious.
"After the Yuanhai Dharma Assembly incident, Qing Yuzi promised to fulfill three of my wishes."
"My first request is that you arrive safely in the Empire."
"The second requirement is the Boundary Stone."
"The third request is to rescue him once, so as to settle the cause and effect."
"But after coming to the Empire and entering the Primordial Realm, I never took the initiative to contact Qing Yuzi."
"It was not until the Empire developed the Siyue Wasteland and I was on my way to serve as a sea envoy that I was able to meet Qing Yuzi. However, he took the initiative to appear in my dream, uninvited."
"He taught me the reincarnation method first, and then turned a blind eye when he knew that he would get into trouble after being associated with Wei Tianchen... If we ignore his actions in the time and space of the Legend Realm, and only look at his actual actions, it was the people of the Empire's Guluo River and the Ancient Hill who joined forces to save me. He just said that I would definitely not die."
"Since he has seen more than Wei Tianchen, Bo Wei, and even the Tianshi Mansion... doesn't that mean he allowed Wei Tianchen to take the Seven Star Cabinet with the Wild God Poison?"
Zhao Xing didn't believe that Qing Yuzi was incapable of stopping Wei Tianchen first, but he did it anyway. He watched Wei Tianchen take away the Seven-Star Cabinet and watched himself being poisoned by the True Spirit Poison.
Therefore, Zhao Xing was three parts afraid of Qing Yuzi, three parts admiring him, three parts helpless, and only one part trusting him.
Their level of trust in the empire is far greater than Qing Yuzi's.
It was only out of helplessness that he got involved with Qing Yuzi.
"Among the three major factions in the Samsara Temple, Qing Yuzi belongs to the one that actively intervenes. What is he planning?"
"However, no matter what he is planning, I don't have to be afraid of him." Zhao Xing smiled.
In the time and space of the legendary world, there is the area of divine patterns within the bones of Xu Zu's shed bones.
Zhao Xing had three choices when facing the Xuzu divine pattern.
First, I take some risks to learn and return with my own soul carrying the secret method. Considering that I can learn Fan Qianrou's heart sealing method and protect it with Qinghua's magic power, Zhao Xing thinks that the success rate is actually very high.
Second, do nothing and return directly. You are just in the realm of life and death. You can't bring anything out. It doesn't matter. The original world can't blame you.
Third, use the statue of Qingyuzi to carry it.
On the surface, he had no choice, but in fact, he had already thought of using a third method.
There are many reasons, the most important of which is distrust and the unwillingness to be led.
"No matter what your plan or intention is, Qing Yuzi, you treated my life as nothing and let Wei Tianchen get away. The previous time was fine, but I was too weak at the time. I felt disgusted inside, but I didn't dare to show it."
"But now you come again, you really treat me like a puppet..."
Zhao Xing was not afraid that Qing Yuzi would be unhappy.
First, he prayed on the surface before taking action, pretending that he had no choice, but in fact it was a temptation.
Second, even if Qing Yuzi found out that she disliked him, there was still someone to take the blame.
Bowei has been brainwashing me for three hundred years, and my clone has heard it all clearly. I took the opportunity to amplify this disgust. If there is a problem, such as being questioned by Qing Yuzi... I can also find a reason.
If he really did this, I'm sure Bowei would be very happy when he saw this scene!
"Although there is no need to exchange the quota to bring back the information from the world, when Qing Yuzi's statue carries the information, the statue itself becomes an expensive physical treasure."
"After the host is successfully carried, Qing Yuzi, who is in the same time and space, will inevitably be affected. This is based on the cognition that I will be repelled by the laws of the Transmission Tower."
Be it Wei Tianchen, Bowei or Qing Yuzi, they are all setting a trap for him... If he doesn't put up any resistance and just follows the direction of the battle of cause and effect, how can he be Master Zhao?
So, he used this method to carry out a silent and implicit resistance.
Zhao Xing didn't know what the effect would be, but he was clear that he had to do it.
"Handing over the statue to Emperor Chixing is a safeguard for this rebellion."
He knew that as he became stronger, sooner or later he would face a great test and a choice: Are you from the Temple of Samsara represented by Qing Yuzi, or are you from the Red Star Empire?
Continuing the unclear relationship with Qing Yuzi might be fine during the honeymoon period of cooperation, but it’s assumed that the relationship is bad.
Qing Yuzi wants you, Zhao Xing, to do something for him. Will you do it or not?
Zhao Xing knew very well that if he did not solve this problem, he would never be truly accepted by the empire.
"Between the interests of the Empire and Qing Yuzi, I chose the Empire without hesitation. I believe that the Emperor will be able to see the difference after learning about the Chuanjie incident. This is a kind of separation, but also a kind of surrender."
Zhao Xing believed more in the Red Star Empire, and believed more in the Red Star Emperor and Guluo He, because in his previous life, these two people existed and he knew them, while Qing Yuzi was a person he had never met at all. Emotionally speaking, it was not difficult to make this choice.
Regardless of whether Qing Yuzi could see it or not, or whether he could feel it or not, the Great Emperor Chixing gave him the Hunyuan Dao Tower, which was a true acceptance of him as a part of the empire. In terms of strength, the Great Emperor was definitely stronger than Qing Yuzi.
And, compared to Qing Yuzi, whose intentions are unknown.
The ideas of both Emperor Chixing and Guluohe are more in line with Zhao Xing's taste.
The Emperor's star robe is a map of the Xuanling Star Domain. He wants to unify the entire spiritual territory and end the war. Guluohe's idea is to create an eternal world and avoid disasters.
These two people are more to Zhao Xing's taste.
"Lao Qing, after this, we are finally done with each other." Zhao Xing thought silently. "You don't owe me anything anymore, and I don't owe you anything either."
"The statue has been handed over. My causal defense will be completely handed over to the Imperial Heavenly Master's Mansion. Don't come to me again, unless one day I also reach the divine realm. Maybe we can still sit and discuss and laugh about the past."
After Zhao Xing came out of the Chuanjie Tower, he was brought back to the original world by Guluohe and returned to live in Coral City.
The first person to visit him was Ji Si.
"Grand Minister of Agriculture, are you well now?" Ji Si asked.
"Yes, the True Spirit Sky Poison has been removed." Zhao Xing glanced at Ji Si and asked, "Does the Heavenly Master's Mansion know about this?"
"I guessed it." Ji Si nodded.
"Guess?"
"Of course it's just a guess. Does the Minister of Agriculture think that the fortune teller's predictions are 100% certain to come true?" Ji Si said, "The fortune teller doesn't have such great ability."
"No fortune teller, even at the divine level, can be completely certain of the direction of the future. They can only see the most likely direction."
"According to the theories of fortune tellers, the universe and the cause and effect are everywhere, and they interact with other great ways. Add to that the individual's free will, the changes in fortune, and even the influence of the environment, and you may see a 'change of mind'."
"So even in theory, any divination and prediction method used by fortune tellers can only be close to certainty, not completely certain."
"The Tianshi Mansion sent me here just to confirm. We are not sure whether the Grand Minister of Agriculture's illness is completely cured."
Hearing Ji Si say this, Zhao Xing nodded slightly.
He was indeed a little afraid of fortune tellers. He believed that success depends on human efforts and his destiny is in his own hands, so he had an instinctive resistance to the profession of fortune teller.
The Empire's Tianshi Mansion also participated in his battle of cause and effect. Although it was on his own side, he still felt more or less being seen through.
After hearing what Ji Si said, he felt a lot more relieved.
"Grand Minister of Agriculture, don't worry." Ji Si whispered, "I watched your battle of cause and effect the whole time, you don't have to think too much."
"Oh?" Zhao Xing was a little surprised. Is it possible for Ji Si to watch such a situation?
"I came here this time, first, to visit the Minister of Agriculture, and second, my master ordered me to verify whether the True Spirit Sky Poison has disappeared, and then convey a few words."
Zhao Xing sat upright and said, "Master Ji, please speak."
Ji Si said:
"Master said: Zhao Xing, the battle of cause and effect has ended. The Tianshi Mansion has carried out targeted cause and effect protection for you. After the protection, even I, as a spellcaster, cannot spy on your privacy. This is the personal permission of the Great Emperor."
"Thank you, Heavenly Master." Zhao Xing bowed.
Sure enough, handing it over was the right choice. The emperor truly accepted me as an outlier who survived the Yuanhai Dharma Assembly incident.
Then he asked in a low voice: "Ji Si, what does this directional causal protection mean?"
Ji Si also switched his state and whispered, "Grand Minister of Agriculture, things like cause and effect protection are like flood control."
"Leaving it alone won't work. It's easy for someone to take advantage of you or attack you, just like Wei Tianchen plotted against you."
"It won't work if you block everything. Cultivation requires both hard work and practice, as well as Feng Shui and fortune. If you block everything, even if you can't be attacked, it will become a black hole of fortune, and you won't have any chance of encountering any adventures."
"In the case of everything being locked, our fortune tellers' theory calls it the living dead. Theoretically, this is impossible to do completely, just like we cannot completely predict the direction of people and things."
Luck brings the dead back to life.
Zhao Xing suddenly thought of a group of people.
They have no connection with the outside world at all, living a dull life day after day, doing things step by step, as if they have lost their human emotions, because life is the same every day and there is no possibility of any ups and downs at all.
"Do you think the Samsara Temple is like this?"
Ji Si thought for a moment and said, "Yes and no, this brings me to what I just said, directional causal protection."
"It is better to open up than to block. There are many kinds of causal defense. Generally speaking, fortune tellers disturb the causal lines of others and use magic to tamper with them. This is related to a person's fate and several special causal lines in the fate palace."
"Generally speaking, the magic is performed based on the [Fourteen Lines of the Life Palace]."
"Even more complicated is the distinction between the twelve-hour cause and effect lines."
"Magic can be effective in the short term, snatching opportunities from others, but it can also be used for long-term planning, to hunt down the fate of others."
"Generally speaking, the longer the time, the more likely it is that the spells cast involving the fourteen lines of the Fate Palace will affect a person's life."
"The so-called directional protection is to protect the fourteen lines of your life palace, the Great Si Nong, so that they will not be influenced by others."
"But it will not affect the luck and opportunities of the Grand Minister of Agriculture in certain secret realms. It may even be of some help."
Zhao Xing had also learned fortune-telling before, so he understood it quickly.
"In other words, at most, others can use the magic of karma and fate to take my wealth, but they can't harm my life?"
"That's right." Ji Si nodded.
"That's much easier." Zhao Xing said with a smile, "As long as the fourteen lines of the life palace are not affected, the rest are not worth mentioning, and it is easy to prevent if you wear a few treasures." "Ji Si, please continue."
Ji Si switched back to a serious expression: "Zhao Xing, I need to explain that the original [Cause and Effect War] was provoked by Wei Tianchen. The incident happened suddenly, and the Tianshi Mansion responded to the battle temporarily, so it is impossible to do things perfectly."
"You were captured by Wei Tianchen because my Tianshi Mansion didn't have time to react. Your causal defense level was originally arranged by Jingyue and was the same as that of all Coral-level members."
"Then the Tianshi Mansion set a cause-and-effect trap on you to lure the demon clan emperor into the game, and also to help you complete the closed loop of the time and space laws of the Chuanjie Building. It was done by the way."
After a pause, Ji Si said in a deep voice: "If one day the empire needs you to make sacrifices, I will definitely tell you in advance. Do you understand?"
Zhao Xing said solemnly: "Yes, I understand."
Tianshi Mansion was explaining to himself the cause and effect battle.
In order to prevent any grudges from arising in one's heart.
The last sentence is also very straightforward. If you are required to make sacrifices, you must be informed.
Even if it means dying, they will do it willingly and will not do anything secretive.
In fact, Zhao Xing already knew that the Red Star Empire had this.
Any fortune teller who participates in the war serves as a military strategist or adviser. Since it is a war, a tactic called bait tactic will be commonly used.
Meng Wu's teacher, God Yan, is in charge of the imperial military and has strict regulations for fortune tellers, which means that when encountering such tasks, the person carrying out the task must be given the right to know.
What? You said this would reveal the secret? That's your fault, not our military's problem.
Has anyone violated this order?
There are also.
There are always some fortune tellers who are greedy for credit or are coerced, but the military also investigates very strictly.
Meng Wu's Erliangpo Prison imprisoned and killed many people, including some powerful people.
At least in the core high-level positions like Tianshi Mansion, this order was executed very well.
"Yeah." Ji Si nodded, then her body shook, ending this magical state.
Zhao Xing knew that the empire's Heavenly Master had finished the method of "holding the body through the spirit writing".
"Grand Minister of Agriculture, my mission is accomplished." Ji Si breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhao Xing suddenly remembered something: "Ji Si, you once said that you wanted to go to the Five Emperors era with me. Now that the war of cause and effect is over, you should be able to tell me now, right?"
"Originally, I was planning to go to the Five Emperors Era to remove the Great Minister of Agriculture's True Spirit Heavenly Poison." Ji Si said, "This was the backup plan that the teacher prepared for the Great Minister of Agriculture, probably because he did not fully trust Bo Wei."
"Oh? Why?" Zhao Xing was very interested. "Bowei is known as the greatest scholar in the Second Era of the Wasteland. He has a very high reputation."
Ji Si shook her head and said, "In the eyes of the teacher, people are pure people, and any title will not affect his judgment. This is also what he taught me. The first principle of a fortune teller is that you cannot bring personal emotions into the game."
"The teacher said that Bo Wei had hidden intentions and didn't know whether it was good or bad, so he took that into consideration."
Zhao Xing couldn't help but laugh.
In this battle of cause and effect, Bo Wei pressed Wei Tianchen to the ground and borrowed his divination to get on the car. Tianshi Mansion saw more and considered more carefully than Bo Wei.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Thinking about it, Wei Tianchen is the weakest cicada. Anyone can kick him twice.
"It's good to have power." Zhao Xing couldn't help but sigh.
Wei Tianchen is fighting alone, while the other three parties, Tianshi Mansion has the backing of the empire, Bowei has the foundation of the academy city, not to mention Lao Qing, the high-level officials of the Temple of Samsara.
Even though Wei Tianchen has many magical objects, they are no match for the foundation of this super power. It's ridiculous that he said that he won the battle of cause and effect.
"I don't know how the Great Zhou is developing now."
Zhao Xing had been recuperating for three hundred years, but he still held many positions, so the Great Zhou was still reaping the benefits of his position as a first-level sea envoy and developing on the Ancient Starry Road.
"It's developing rapidly." Ji Si smiled when talking about this. "Grand Minister of Agriculture, I won't go into details. You can go and see it in person when you return. There will be some surprises left."
Zhao Xing nodded. From what he said, the development of the Great Zhou could not be fully described in a few words.
Going back, this word touched Zhao Xing's nerves again.
Ji Si seemed to have thought of something as well and cast a questioning look at him.
Zhao Xing thought about it and shook his head.
On the issue of the Xuanhuang Realm, no matter whether Qing Yuzi's intentions were good or bad, Zhao Xing always had his own considerations.
Yes, he will definitely come back.
But he didn't intend to act blindly.
"Since Shenluo Wasteland was not a wasteland before, then a long time ago, the location of Shenluo Wasteland was a spiritual territory, and it is even possible that some great figures appeared there."
"Gu Luohe showed me the historical map of the Guhe Realm before. The Red Star Empire has a long history. It inherited part of the territory and tradition from the last era of the Five Emperors. I believe there must be historical data there."
Today is different from the past. Zhao Xing and Ji Si don't have to be so cautious when talking. Of course, they didn't mention Xuanhuang Realm directly, but just talked about Shenluo Desolate Realm.
"Originally, Chuanjie Building was a good choice, but now Bowei doesn't seem to like me very much." Zhao Xing said helplessly: "In the short term, I won't have the opportunity to go to Chuanjie Building."
Otherwise, the most direct way is to go to the historical Xuanhuangjie area.
Of course, the prerequisite is that there is a Chuanjie related to the plot of Xuanhuangjie in the Chuanjie Building.
Ji Si said, "Grand Minister of Agriculture, I heard that there were some problems with Chuanjie Building. Bo Wei suddenly slowed down the issuance of the second batch of quotas and raised the fees. This has dealt a blow to his reputation."
"Never mind him. If he's not allowed to go, then don't go." Zhao Xing guessed that it had something to do with him.
It is impossible for the Black Sky Moon Tree and the Soul Devouring Grass to grow to the Emperor level for no reason.
The principle of replacement is the conservation of spiritual energy between the two worlds. Since his two seedlings have become stronger and the statue has been repaired, someone must bear the price.
Maybe it was because Bowei deducted a lot of world spirit points that the opening of the second batch of places was delayed and the fees were increased.
"After collecting information, it's time." Zhao Xing said. "My ego path to breaking through the samsara realm is not far away. I plan to open up the inner world first."
"Grand Minister of Agriculture, is it true?" Ji Si's face lit up with joy.
The Self-Self School has achieved the state of reincarnation and opened up the world within the body, which is a major transformation!
I didn't expect that the Minister of Agriculture has come to this point.
"of course it's true."
There has been a drastic change in the Xuanhuang Realm. This was learned from Wang Tianzhi.
Even Lao Wang has already reached the realm of life and death. If he runs back rashly, he might end up sending himself to death.
Opening up the world within the body will first make you stronger.
Secondly, when traveling in the wilderness, storing supplies and bringing people along is a hassle, but it becomes much more convenient after opening up the inner world.
"Has the Minister of Agriculture planned how to act? Will he act alone, or..."
"Of course, everyone together."
If Zhao Xing wants to go back, he must bring Ji Che, Ji Si and others with him.
Suppose that as Wang Tianzhi said, there was a drastic change in the Xuanhuang Realm.
Then some of the original magical artifacts must have become stronger!
For example, the mysterious treasures such as the Human Emperor Sword and the Book of Destiny can only be used by Ji Che, the Human Emperor.
Therefore, according to Zhao Xing's plan, he must become stronger, open up the world within his body, and the strength of the Great Zhou must also be taken to a higher level.
At present, except Ji Si, none of the other people in the Great Zhou have the combat power of the Samsara Realm, but there are quite a few weak guests in the Samsara Realm.
"We have to find an opportunity for the Great Zhou." Zhao Xing said, "Don't get involved. This is something that I, the Minister of Agriculture, should worry about. You just need to concentrate on practicing according to the instructions of the Heavenly Master."
Ji Si was very excited, but after hearing what Zhao Xing said, he could only nod his head. He had four realms of cultivation, and he still had two realms of cultivation to complete.
But he still asked one more question: "Where does the Minister of Agriculture plan to start?"
"For now, there are only some clues, but it is definitely in the Siyue Wilderness." Zhao Xing said, "Let me report to Emperor Hongshan first."
"Okay, if the Minister of Agriculture has any orders, please inform me!" Ji Si really wanted to contribute his own strength. After all, he had always been a beneficiary and was even accepted as a disciple by the Heavenly Master.
"Sure." Zhao Xing smiled and sent Ji Si away.
Then he took out the Star Realm to contact Emperor Hongshan.
"Zhao Xing, are you well now?"
"Thanks to the Emperor, I am almost recovered." Zhao Xing nodded: "I have not been on duty as a sea envoy for three hundred years, and I feel very guilty."
"It's okay, you can rest more and talk about it when you are fully recovered." Emperor Hongshan said: "There is nothing big going on in the Haitong Ancient Road at the moment, just some rough work."
Emperor Hongshan really has nothing for Zhao Xing to do at the moment.
However, Zhao Xing was a little unhappy. I still owe debts and have to prepare to break through the reincarnation realm. How can I make money without working?
Got to work!
"Emperor, I really want to do something, even if it's just moving mountains and stars."
Emperor Hongshan was amused: "If I ask you to do the work of moving mountains and stars, not only will Lushanjun disagree, but other disciples of Taikoo Hill will also ask me, Hongshan, to use the wrong person."
"How can a saintly person like the son of the ancient hill, a man who writes books on Dao trees and is a founder of a school, be assigned to do the same work as a warrior?
"..."
Zhao Xing felt a little melancholy.
Why don’t I have the chance to do something?
How can you make money if you don’t do anything? How can you get the resources to upgrade if you don’t make money?
He has two major types of soldiers to raise, and opening up the world inside his body requires more than just one divine stone.
Speaking of which, he is quite rich now. He owns the Hunyuan Taoist Tower, two great emperor's armies, and the Divine Stone of Opening the World.
But these are great treasures for his own use and it is impossible to sell them. He has to earn the resources needed to break through the Samsara Realm by himself. The Primordial Realm can provide cultivation resources for the genius stage, but it will not always provide cultivation resources for free.
Zhao Xing is now in the realm of Life and Death, and can be considered a strong man. He has to find a way to make money on his own.
Seeing Zhao Xing's distressed face, Emperor Hongshan stopped joking and provided a piece of information: "If you want to accumulate merits, there is really no place to make a fortune in the seven top ancient roads."
"However, the development of the Annihilation Star Ancient Road has not been going smoothly. A while ago, several major families in charge of the empire planned to give up the development rights of this ancient road and wanted to find another party to take over the rights. Someone asked me about it."
"The Annihilation Star Ancient Road?" Zhao Xing's eyes lit up.
