A comment popped up from Professor Li's team: "This is less a battle between good and evil, and more an internal conflict within a civilization caused by a contradiction in resource allocation. There is no absolute right or wrong, only different perspectives."

Chen Siyao carefully put away the document.

Her views were similar to Professor Li's, but she did not express them during the live broadcast.

The responsibility of archaeologists is to present the facts, not to make value judgments.

"Yaoyao." Yang Wanqing walked over carrying a stack of documents. "There's another batch here. It's Chang'e's cultivation notes."

Chen Siyao took it and glanced at it a few times.

Cultivation insights. A diagram of spiritual energy circulation. Experiences during breakthroughs. Cultivation techniques specific to the Taiyin Realm.

This kind of information is ten times more important than historical records.

"Put them all away," Chen Siyao said. "We'll study them tonight."

Yang Wanqing nodded vigorously and carefully packed all the documents into his Qiankun bag.

"Sister Chang'e's cultivation notes... might be even more helpful to us than the Martial Arts Pavilion."

"Let's not jump to conclusions yet. Let's see what happens."

Chen Siyao took one last look at the interior of Yuehua Residence. White jade floor, light blue walls, and osmanthus trees and jade rabbits on the screen.

The man who guarded the moon alone for three thousand years named his dwelling "Moonlight Abode".

I don't know if it's because I've gotten used to it or because I can't bear to part with it.

Without giving it much thought, she turned and went out to another side hall.

The nameplate of the side hall reads "Yishengzhai".

Yang Wanqing tilted his head and read aloud, "Yi...Sheng? Who is that? Never heard of him."

Chen Siyao didn't recognize the name either. She pushed open the door and went inside.

The layout of Yishengzhai is different from the previous two side halls. It lacks the lively atmosphere of Tianpengju and the serene elegance of Yuehuaju. Here, it's cold.

It's not the temperature that's cold. It's the style that's cold.

There were no decorations on the walls. The furniture consisted only of the most basic table, chairs, and bed.

There weren't many things on the bookshelf: a few CDs, a few star charts, and an extremely thick handwritten copy.

Chen Siyao first flipped through the document.

Their identity information was quickly found.

"Yi Sheng. The third disciple of the Beichen Immortal Sect. Specializes in: divination, astrology, and array formation. Position: Chief Protector of the Jade Void Holy Temple's Array."

"One of the Three Saints of Beichen," Chen Siyao said. "Ranked third. After Tianpeng and Chang'e."

Yang Wanqing didn't react much. To her, someone whose name she had never heard of was ranked third, far less attractive than Chang'e and Tianpeng.

"Yaoyao, is there anything interesting around here?"

"Find it yourself."

Yang Wanqing wandered around Yishengzhai. The bookshelves, tables, beds... nothing particularly special. She turned into the inner room.

The inner room was even smaller. There was a square table, but nothing on it. However, there was a niche embedded in the wall.

There were two things in the niche.

Two seals.

The two coins are about the size of a palm, one gold and one silver. The gold one is engraved with the characters "Liu Ding" and the silver one is engraved with "Liu Jia".

Yang Wanqing picked up the golden seal and examined it, but couldn't figure out what it was. "Yaoyao, there are two seals here."

Chen Siyao walked in from the outer room. She took the gold seal from Yang Wanqing's hand and ran her fingertips over the patterns on its surface.

Her divine sense probed in...

A flood of information rushed into my mind.

Chen Siyao stopped.

She looked up and glanced at Yang Wanqing. Then she looked at the gold seal in her hand. And then at the silver seal in the niche.

"What's wrong?" Yang Wanqing was alarmed by her reaction. "Is it something dangerous?"

"no."

Chen Siyao placed the gold seal flat in her palm and took a deep breath.

"This is a magical artifact. The Dingjia Contract Seal. Its function is... to summon the Six Ding and Six Jia to protect the righteous Dharma."

Yang Wanqing didn't react. "What are the Six Ding and Six Jia?"

"Twelve guardians," Chen Siyao said in a low voice, "The golden seal summons the Six Ding, and the silver seal summons the Six Jia. Each of the summoned Jia figures..."

She looked at Yang Wanqing.

"Peak of the Divine Treasure Realm".

The air became quiet.

Yang Wanqing paused for two seconds. Then for three to five seconds.

Then...

"What did you say?"

"Peak of the Divine Realm. Twelve of them."

Yang Wanqing's breathing quickened. She reached into the niche and took out the silver seal, holding it in her hands as if it were an egg that might break at any moment.

"Twelve... peak Divine Realm cultivators..."

She did the math. She was currently at the peak of the Meridian Opening Realm. The Divine Treasure Realm was a whole realm higher than her. Twelve peak Divine Treasure Realm cultivators...

"Yao Yao!"

Yang Wanqing's screams nearly blew the roof off.

"Calm down!" Chen Siyao quickly pressed down on her shoulder. "Keep your voice down!"

Yang Wanqing tried hard to suppress his excitement, but his whole body was trembling. "This is...this is the most powerful thing we've obtained in the Thirty-Three Heavens, right? More powerful than Taiyi Golden Essence, right? More powerful than any refining material, right?"

Chen Siyao neither confirmed nor denied it.

The Taiyi Golden Essence is indeed precious, but it's a material, and they don't need it at this stage. These two seals, however, represent direct combat power. They can summon twelve guardians at the peak of the Divine Treasure Realm at any time.

In the current cultivation world of Blue Star, there are practically no cultivators at the Divine Treasure Realm.

And they now have... twelve.

"Exactly two." Chen Siyao handed the gold seal to Yang Wanqing. "One for each of us."

Yang Wanqing took the gold seal, holding the gold in his left hand and the silver in his right, clutching the two seals in his palms. He was so excited that he spun around twice on the spot.

"Yaoyao...I love you!"

"It has nothing to do with me; it was left behind by Yisheng."

The live chat is going crazy!

"Twelve peak Divine Realm cultivators?"

"Is this cheating?!"

"I thought the Taiyi Golden Essence was the biggest gain, but I never expected there to be something like this!"

"Summoning twelve Divine Realm Guardians... who can defeat them after they return to Earth?"

"The crucial point is that this thing was kept in the residence of some unknown person!"

"There's nothing at Tianpeng's place, and there are documents at Chang'e's place, but it turns out that Yisheng has hidden a deadly weapon here."

"That's why you shouldn't judge ability by fame!"

Yang Wanqing held onto the two seals tightly, and a question suddenly popped into his mind.

"Yaoyao, why do you think Yisheng left such a powerful magic weapon here?"

Chen Siyao smiled.

"Is it possible... that this magic weapon is already outdated for Yi Sheng? He won't need it anymore now that his cultivation level is higher?"

"A peak Divine Realm cultivation level is impressive to us, but for Yi Sheng... it might be just average?"

Yang Wanqing scratched his head and chuckled sheepishly, "That seems to be true?"

"It's more than just ordinary." Chen Siyao pointed to the records on the document, "Yi Sheng is one of the Three Saints of Beichen. The cultivation of the Three Saints... is only below Ziwei Tianzun. Ziwei Tianzun is a Tianzun-level existence. Even if the Three Saints are one level below him, they are still far beyond the Divine Treasure Realm."

"So for Yi Sheng, this thing is..."

Yang Wanqing gestured.

"Toys from when you were a child?"

The live stream audience was in stitches.

"Is it possible that it's not ordinary, but like a toy?"

"Yisheng: I played with this when I was a kid, but now that I'm older, I have nowhere to put it, so I just left it there."

"The late Qing Dynasty was so naive, but I love it, haha."

"That makes sense. It's like when we were kids we thought slingshots were amazing, but when we grew up we thought they were just so-so."

"My disciple's lost toy = the most powerful magic weapon of our time. The ancient civilization is terrifying indeed."
