"Clearly, Shao Siming's improved strength is related to that person."
Upon hearing this, the Grand Fate immediately asked Star Soul, "Lord Star Soul, do you know that person?"
Xinghun's tone carried a hint of strangeness, "That person is no ordinary character."
"Recently, he has gained considerable fame in Xianyang and seems to have even won the favor of the King of Qin."
"When our Lord Donghuang learned of Shao Siming's whereabouts and knew that they had betrayed the Yin Yang School, he did not strip them of their status as Shao Siming. Isn't that because he values this person?"
Perhaps it's because his relationship with the Grand Master of Fate is much closer than with the other elders.
Therefore, Xinghun spoke very frankly in front of Da Siming.
He bluntly pointed out that Shao Siming was a traitor.
When the King of Qin was mentioned, a chilling glint flashed in his eyes.
He looks like a young boy, but little did people know that he looked exactly like this when he joined the Yin Yang School several years ago.
Over the years, his appearance has remained unchanged; his growth has simply stopped.
This is the price to pay for gaining power.
He chose to gain power because King Ying Zheng of Qin had ruined his family and destroyed everything he owned.
Chapter 285 Under Luo Sheng Hall, Qiu Lan Lives Forever!
"His Majesty the Eastern Emperor has granted your request!"
Yan Fei, dressed in the same clothes as before, approached Xu Qing and spoke in this manner.
"So what are the requirements?" Xu Qing asked Yan Fei.
To take something, you must first give something else. This is a very simple and basic principle.
To gain something, you have to give something in return.
The place where the Earth Fire is located is a forbidden area for the Yin-Yang School. Since it is a forbidden area, ordinary people are naturally prohibited from entering it.
Even though it was the forbidden area of the Mo family, Xu Qing was only led into it by the Six-Fingered Black Knight because he had helped the Mo family for a long time and saved them from disaster.
"His Majesty the Eastern Emperor wishes you to forge a sword for him!"
Yan Fei stated Donghuang Taiyi's request.
She thought that Xu Qing would hesitate for a while after making such a request, but to her surprise, he did not hesitate at all.
"can!"
"I will forge him a sword that will satisfy him!"
Xu Qing said calmly.
Logically speaking, given his previous frictions and clashes with the Yin-Yang School, and the fact that their relationship was not harmonious, he should have resisted the matter of forging swords for the Yin-Yang School, but that was not the case in reality.
For Xu Qing, sword forging was a highly rewarding endeavor.
Besides accumulating more experience during the sword-making process itself, Xu Qing can also gain something from others when the sword he forges falls into their hands, based on the principle of equivalent exchange.
It could be an intangible talent or a visible martial art.
There's always one thing like that.
Even though he disliked Donghuang Taiyi, Xu Qing had to admit that the other party was one of the top experts in this world.
Since such a person had taken the initiative to ask for the sword, Xu Qing naturally wouldn't refuse.
That's all there is to say.
After Xu Qing agreed to forge a sword for Donghuang Taiyi, the Yin-Yang School also showed its sincerity.
It was Consort Yan again who led Xu Qing toward the location of Luo Shengtang.
Wandering through an incredibly complex palace.
Finally, they successfully arrived at a bronze door.
"This door is Rashomon!"
"It has six Jiazi locks on it!"
"If an ordinary person attempts to break the Six Paths of the Jiazi Lock, they will trigger the barrier above it, and subsequently have all their power sealed..."
Although Shao Siming Hei Bai behind Xu Qing was an elder of the Yin Yang School and knew Luo Sheng Tang very well, they were currently in the Yin Yang School with high-ranking members like Donghuang Taiyi and Dongjun Yanfei present. Yanfei was even personally leading the way for Xu Qing, so there was no need for Shao Siming Hei Bai to explain.
"Is it that amazing?"
Xu Qing feigned surprise as he looked at the bronze door in front of him and the "Six Jiazi Locks" on it. "I'd like to try and see if they can seal my power!"
"If I were to lose all my powers, some of you would probably be very happy."
"Because that would mean I've become a weakling whom you can manipulate at will!"
“Mr. Xu is joking.” Yan Fei said calmly, “You are no ordinary person. The barrier above these six Jiazi locks is probably no match for you.”
If he could really do something to Xu Qing, given the ruthlessness of the Eastern Emperor, why would he take the initiative to show goodwill towards Xu Qing?
This in itself reveals a lot.
For example, Your Excellency Donghuang is not confident in defeating the person before you.
Otherwise, they would treat the person in front of them with a completely different attitude.
It should be noted that the Yin-Yang School has always been willing to use any means necessary to bring those they have their eyes on into their ranks.
Gan Luo back then, Xinghun now, that's exactly the case.
Xinghun's predecessor was Gan Luo, who became famous at a young age and was valued by Lü Buwei. When he was sent as an envoy to the State of Zhao, he won many cities from the State of Qin without lifting a finger.
However, due to the schemes of the Yin-Yang School and the instigation of certain people who were hostile to Lü Buwei, his family was destroyed and his relatives died tragically.
The Yin-Yang School exploited the other party's hatred and brought them here.
It's laughable that the other party still harbors hatred towards the King of Qin. Little does he know that his very existence is nothing more than the Yin-Yang School, a puppet manipulated by His Majesty the Eastern Emperor.
As the Lord of the East, Yanfei knows more than ordinary people.
Xu Qing remained noncommittal.
Yan Fei stepped forward, formed a strange hand seal, and then released her inner force, which flowed out and entered the Six Jiazi Locks. Instantly, the Six Jiazi Locks recognized the corresponding inner force, and slowly activated and then unlocked.
"Smart door lock?"
Xu Qing watched this scene and couldn't help but think to himself.
Although it is ancient times, the Yin-Yang School is really suited to the security industry, after all, they have invented video surveillance and smart door locks.
Even though these things can only be achieved with the help of Yin-Yang techniques.
Conversely, it is precisely because of the existence of Yin-Yang techniques that these skills are exclusively owned by the Yin-Yang School, and no one else can learn them.
"Let's go inside!"
As the six Jiazi locks were unlocked, the bronze door also opened.
Yan Fei took the first step and said something.
Xu Qing, accompanied by Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, stepped inside.
Separated only by a door, upon entering Luosheng Hall, Xu Qing immediately felt an incomparably rich vitality and pure天地元气 (heaven and earth energy). The place where Lishan is located is itself an extremely rare famous mountain and blessed land, with abundant天地元气 (heaven and earth energy). After being gathered by the Yin-Yang School's formation, it became even more concentrated.
This Luosheng Hall, as a forbidden area of the Yin-Yang School, is the closest place to the "Central Palace" of Donghuang Taiyi, and is undoubtedly the central core of these formations.
Of course, this is just Xu Qing's guess.
However, considering that the earth fire is hidden here, and that yin and yang intersect here, this speculation is still quite plausible.
"Spiritual robes and jade pendants, one yin and one yang, beneath Luo Sheng Hall, autumn orchids live on forever!"
Upon entering Luosheng Hall, Yanfei spoke softly, uttering a phrase that had been circulating among the Yin-Yang School for a long time.
This statement actually reveals some of the secrets of the Yin-Yang School.
The spirit robe and jade pendant are the tokens of the Yin-Yang School's leader, just like the Tai'a sword of the Confucian school and the non-aggression ink eyebrows of the Mohist school. The spirit robe and jade pendant have yin and yang attributes, complementing each other. Luo Sheng Hall is a forbidden area of the Yin-Yang School. It is full of vitality, but within the endless vitality, there is a sense of annihilation, and it contains earth fire.
It is a place where yin and yang meet, and life and death coexist.
If one cultivates here, one can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Of course, the earth fire is filled with destructive power. If not handled properly, it may disrupt the balance of yin and yang, and then destroy the headquarters of the Yin-Yang School of Mount Li. Therefore, this place has been designated as a forbidden area.
Yan Fei certainly couldn't say these things to Xu Qing, but she still warned him, "This place is a forbidden area of my Yin Yang Clan. I don't trust you to forge swords here alone. To prevent you from doing anything here, I need to keep an eye on you."
"You people from the Yin-Yang School really misunderstand me a lot!" Xu Qing shook his head. "I'm actually a good person."
Those of the Yin-Yang School who had suffered at Xu Qing's hands were clearly unwilling to believe this.
Yan Fei did not respond to Xu Qing.
With Xu Qing in tow, they continued deeper into the Luosheng Hall.
Rashomon is very large, and its interior is like a maze with many passages, but no one knows where those passages lead.
Is it a repository for the secret records and information of the Yin-Yang School? Or a place where forbidden techniques are sealed away?
Although Xu Qing was curious, he did not force his way into those places in front of Yan Fei.
Although Yanfei couldn't stop him, there was no need to break ties with the Yin Yang School at the moment.
Continuing on, after walking for a while, we arrived at a spacious hall.
At the edge of the main hall, Yan Fei formed a hand seal and pointed it forward.
"open!"
In an instant, the ground, which had appeared to be perfectly normal, began to collapse.
The ground cracked open, revealing a deep ravine. Within the ravine, subterranean fire boiled, and scorching heat swept out, carrying a strong smell of fire poison and sulfur.
"The ultimate end of life is death!"
"This is the place with the most vitality in Rashomon, but with a little trickery, the endless vitality can be turned into a dead end."
Yan Fei spoke again, ignoring Shao Siming Hei Bai who followed behind Xu Qing, and looked at Xu Qing instead, "The earth fire you want to borrow is right in front of you. Next, would you like my Yin Yang School to help you build the furnace needed for forging the sword?"
"No need for that," Xu Qing shook his head. "People must rely on themselves."
