Chapter 51 The Great Dream 3
The Master of Heaven had a different plan in mind.
"If we can bring such anomalies, who are not bound by the laws of heaven, into the ranks of our Jie Sect, they will surely become an unparalleled sword for our Jie Sect to break through the impasse in this great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods."
"But if that old scoundrel Yuanshi finds him first, given his nature of preferring to kill the innocent rather than let the guilty go free, this boy will be in grave danger."
"No, even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I will find him!"
A flash of inspiration struck the Tongtian Sect Leader.
If conventional deduction doesn't work, then we'll borrow external help!
In the entire primordial world, if we were to discuss the most profound way to deduce the secrets of heaven, besides the Heavenly Dao itself, there would only be one other thing.
Zixiao Palace, the Jade Disc of Creation in the hands of Dao Ancestor Hongjun!
"Duobao, you all guard Jin'ao Island well. I'll be right back!"
Before he finished speaking, the Tongtian Sect Leader's figure had already transformed into a wisp of pure energy and disappeared onto Biyou Bed in Biyou Palace.
Beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, in the depths of chaos.
The Purple Cloud Palace floated alone amidst the endless void storm.
Ancient and weathered.
It exudes the majestic aura of the Great Dao that has suppressed all ages.
The Tongtian Sect Leader landed in front of the Zixiao Palace and strode inside without hesitation.
"Disciple Tongtian greets Master!"
Deep within the empty hall, an old man, seemingly merged into the void, slowly opened his eyes.
It was none other than the ancestor Hongjun, who was in harmony with the Dao of Heaven and Earth.
Looking at his youngest disciple, the most unruly of his three disciples yet the one he loved the most, a hint of tenderness flashed in Hongjun's emotionless eyes.
"Tongtian, the great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods has begun. Why are you here instead of quietly reciting the Yellow Court Classic on Golden Turtle Island?"
The Tongtian Sect Leader was also a straightforward person. Relying on his master's favoritism, he went straight to the point.
"Teacher, I have encountered a strange thing."
"It seems that our Jie Sect has produced an extraordinary talent, but someone has used powerful means to conceal his secrets. My disciples are not skilled enough to calculate his origins."
"Fearing that my second senior brother, Yuanshi, might secretly plot against me, I shamelessly came to seek out my master, hoping to borrow the Jade Disc of Creation!"
Upon hearing this, Hongjun Laozu gave Tongtian a deep look.
He is in harmony with the Way of Heaven, and few things in the primordial world can be hidden from him.
But when his divine sense swept across the space-time of Chentang Pass, he also discovered a blind spot.
"An anomaly has occurred; the secrets of heaven are unpredictable..."
Hongjun Laozu understood this perfectly, but he did not reveal it.
"You, you're always so protective of your own, so stubborn."
Hongjun Laozu sighed and waved his sleeve.
A fragmented jade disc, imbued with the laws of the Three Thousand Great Daos and radiating a soft white light, slowly flew to the front of the Tongtian Sect Leader.
"Go. Don't force anything; follow the natural order and your own heart."
Thank you, teacher!
The Tongtian Sect Leader was overjoyed. He took the Creation Jade Disc with both hands, kowtowed respectfully, turned into a stream of light, and hurriedly returned to Jin'ao Island.
……
Inside Biyou Palace.
The Tongtian Sect Leader returned, holding the Creation Jade Disc that exuded the aura of the supreme Dao.
Upon seeing this, all the disciples gasped and knelt down.
That's the Dao Ancestor's magical artifact!
In order to find an outer disciple, Master actually borrowed the Jade Disc of Creation?
This level of respect and treatment is simply outrageous!
"Clouds high, heavens high, azure skies high!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader, with a solemn expression, shouted in a deep voice.
"Disciple is here!"
The Three Immortal Maidens stepped forward together.
"The three of you are of one mind and possess superb cultivation. Quickly form the Three Talents Formation to assist your master in activating this Jade Disc of Creation."
"Today, even if we have to turn this entire wasteland upside down, I will find this hidden gem!"
"Your disciple obeys!"
The Three Immortal Maidens dared not delay and immediately took their places in the main hall, where the power of the Supreme Purity surged forth from their bodies and poured into the Jade Disc of Creation in front of the Tongtian Sect Leader.
With the support of these three people's magical power, plus the stimulation of the saint's origin,
The Jade Disc of Creation instantly burst forth with dazzling white light.
The phantoms of the Three Thousand Great Daos intertwined and entwined within the hall, forming a vast net of cause and effect that covered all the heavens and myriad realms.
With his eyes closed, the Tongtian Sect Leader once again probed the secrets of heaven with his divine sense.
This time, he changed his approach.
Since that kid has a system covering him up, it can't calculate his character, and it only gives a jumbled mess of numbers when it comes to calculating his fate.
"Then I am not human!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader's lips curled into a slight smile.
"You cultivate the Shangqing Immortal Light of my Jie Sect, and practice my Tongtian Great Dao Method!"
"The cultivation methods share a common origin, and their causes and effects are interconnected!"
"Today, I will settle the score regarding the 'cause and effect' of this cultivation technique!"
Boom!
Following the fleeting aura of Shangqing at Chentang Pass, the Tongtian Sect Leader attached his divine sense to the Three Thousand Great Daos of the Creation Jade Disc and went upstream.
He stopped investigating the man's past and future, and instead focused intently on the source of that wisp of Shangqing Immortal Dharma.
Where does this aura come from?
Who passed down this technique?
As the Jade Disc of Creation began to operate, images of the past years flowed through the mind of the Tongtian Sect Leader like a revolving lantern.
Sudden.
The Tongtian Sect Leader shuddered.
Following the cause and effect of that cultivation technique, and overcoming numerous spatial barriers, he unexpectedly saw a fragmented world that he had long forgotten in the corner of time.
That was an interesting little world that one of his avatars had visited during the Great Dream of Myriad Worlds, countless eons ago.
In that little world, there were no gods or Buddhas, only mortal weapons.
The deduction process of the Jade Disc of Creation gradually became clear.
In that small world, smoke filled the air and war raged.
A mortal emperor of great talent and ambition, with the might to conquer mountains and rivers, led the Black Bird Iron Cavalry to sweep across the eight wastelands and six directions, unifying the world!
That emperor was exceptionally talented and possessed the ambition to conquer the sun and moon.
But he was, after all, only a mortal.
After unifying the world, he became obsessed with immortality and was unwilling to turn into a handful of dust after a hundred years.
So he dispatched a vast fleet of ships to sail out to sea in search of the legendary Penglai Mountain and to pray for the elixir of immortality.
At that time, the wisp of the Tongtian Sect Master's incarnation was living in seclusion on an overseas immortal island, drinking and making merry.
Seeing that the mortal emperor's heart was so firm in seeking the Dao, and that he had the aura of a human emperor who could rule the nine provinces.
On a whim, the incarnation of the Tongtian Sect Leader, moved by the emperor's sincerity, enlightened him in a dream.
Before leaving.
He casually left behind a fragment of a scroll containing the basic teachings of the Jie Sect in the secret treasury of that mortal emperor's palace.
The Shangqing Qi-Inducing Chapter!
"It's there..."
The Tongtian Sect Leader suddenly opened his eyes on Biyou's bed, a look of disbelief flashing in his eyes.
He never imagined that the glimpse of the mortal world he had just seen, or the casually bestowed fragment of a book.
After countless years, such an incredible fruit has been produced!
The wisp of Shangqing Immortal Light leaking from Chentang Pass resonated across time and space with the original Qi of that fragment of the Shangqing Qi-Guiding Chapter from back then!
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
The Tongtian Sect Leader couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Every drink and every bite is preordained.
"A seemingly insignificant move from back then has unexpectedly become a fulcrum capable of moving heaven and earth in today's great calamity of the Investiture of the Gods!"
"No wonder that old bastard Yuanshi couldn't figure out his origins, because he wasn't a being born from this primordial world at all; he was an anomaly who crossed realms from that small world!"
The light of the Jade Disc of Creation gradually dimmed.
Although the system's shielding remained powerful, it prevented the Tongtian Sect Leader from seeing Lin Yuan's true appearance and specific identity.
However, by taking advantage of the causal resonance of that cultivation technique, the Tongtian Sect Leader had successfully pinpointed a general location!
That was an outer area designated as an "absolutely safe zone" by the Blue Star military think tank.
Amidst towering mountains and lofty peaks, the earth's spiritual energy converges.
The Master of Heaven put away the Jade Disc of Creation and looked in that direction.
"Good lad, you've been keeping it well hidden."
"With the fragments I bestowed upon you back then, you've actually managed to cultivate to such a level in this world, even innovating and daring to confront even the Great Master Taiyi."
"Such comprehension and courage—it would be a complete waste not to take them under my wing!"
The Master of Heaven stood up and waved his sleeves.
"Duobao, Zhao Gongming, the Three Immortals, heed my command!"
"Disciple is here!"
All the core disciples responded in unison, their expressions solemn.
"From this day forward, Jin'ao Island shall be closed off, and no one shall leave without permission and incur karmic consequences."
A hint of anticipation flickered in the eyes of the Tongtian Sect Leader.
"I must go there myself."
"Go and meet this peerless prodigy of my Jie Sect, a genius who can't even fathom the secrets of heaven!"
