Chapter 425: 425. Guiyi God
After taking a seat, Zuo Gong spoke first:
“I’ve heard about your deeds, well done! Chaotic tis call for heavy punishnts. Now that no one in the Jingjin area dares to cause trouble, the situation has basically stabilized.”
Lu Yao modestly replied, “One cannot simply stand by and watch those degenerates do as they please.”
Zuo Gong took out a telegram from his bosom and passed it over, saying:
“I’ve just received news that the Western countries have signed a formal truce agreent; it’s expected to be reported in the newspapers tomorrow.”
Upon glancing at the telegram, Lu Yao learned: The World War had caused heavy casualties among mortals, but the losses of supernatural forces were not significant.
At most, a few Innate-level individuals were caught off guard and killed by newly invented automatic cannons, but the Dukes of Golden Body level remained unscathed.
Unexpectedly, it wasn’t the frontline of the war that was issue-free; instead, four were lost in a single looting expedition to the Shun Dynasty.
So were said to have suffered heavy losses, while others took great advantage, notably Jiade.
After reading the telegram, Lu Yao said, “We have unintentionally helped Jiade. The truce agreent is not harsh.”
“This country did not participate in the invasion by the Coalition Forces of the Great Powers. It’s a blessing in disguise. Their top combat power remains unscathed, and seizing the opportunity to strike first to negotiate peace led to this expected outco…”
As Zuo Gong spoke, he furrowed his brow and said:
“However, with Einheit, Izumo, and other powers having lost four Golden Bodies here, they will not let this slide when they free up their hands. I’m worried that King-level Demon Beasts might attack!”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yao quickly asked, “How does the combat power of a King-level Demon Beast compare to a Golden Body?”
Zuo Gong pondered for a mont and replied, “King-level Demon Beasts correspond to the legendary Martial Saints and are naturally a bit stronger. Additionally, once a King-level appears, countless Dukes will join the fight; this will be a full-scale war. Currently, the country is too fragnted to hold them off.”
Lu Yao was sowhat curious, “Martial Saint?”
Zuo Gong explained at length, “In ancient tis, those in the Golden Body Realm could congeal their True Intent, possessing unimaginable might and were honored as Martial Saints.
As the cultivation world declined, no one could congeal the True Intent of the Martial Path, and the might was vastly inferior, not deserving of the title ‘saint’ at all. Hence, the term gradually fell out of use and was replaced by Great Grandmaster.”
…
As Zuo Gong continued, he sighed deeply and said, “Compared to the sages of old, what are we who are in the Golden Body Realm? If only we had a Martial Saint or a Thunder Tribulation Heavenly Monarch to deter the barbarians and petty thieves.”
Lu Yao felt deeply moved by these words but also kindled with pride and ambition—
[If I could break through Thunder Tribulation, I could surely protect the Divine Land from harm and make the invading Demon Beasts retreat without return!]
At that mont, he was eager to acquire everything the Wudang Sect knew about Thunder Tribulation.
Thunder Tribulation is a realm of qualitative change in Spirit Refinent. Most of the ancient and unimaginable mythologies were left by those in the Thunder Tribulation Realm.
And the current easiest breakthrough lies in the Spirit Refinent Realm. But with a monster in the sky from Another world, he couldn’t Cross the Thunder Tribulation…
An idea suddenly struck Lu Yao: [Could I try going to Blue Star? By relying on the power of science to cross the Thunder Tribulation, I could also avoid that creature…]
Just as he thought this, Lu Yao suddenly sensed sothing was amiss—his heart was seized by an indescribable terror, and the hairs on his body stood on end!
The next second, an overwhelming Mind Force appeared out of nowhere, sweeping through the space without restraint!
This Mind Force, vast like a colossal lid covering heaven and earth, had no visible end and was beyond human capability to produce. Its source ca from above the sky!
Zuo Gong also noticed this, and the two of them shot out to look up at the second sun in the sky, which was the very source of that trendous Mind Force!
They saw the celestial body hovering in the sky had transford into an enormous eyeball, slowly rotating to survey the surroundings.
As it moved, the Mind Force, like a celestial curtain, continued to sweep across the north and south of the Shun Dynasty.
Zuo Gong exclaid in shock, “Is this… The God of Unity!? It truly exists!”
“It seems to be searching for sothing?”
The overwhelming psychic fluctuation kept narrowing down, its scanning area growing smaller, seemingly honing in on a target.
Finally, it condensed into a beam, pinpointing the direction of Chang’an. The gigantic eye in the sky also turned to look there!
“Chang’an… Emperor Qin’s Mausoleum!?” Lu Yao was suddenly shocked, knowing that this monster was related to The First Emperor of Qin.
At the sa ti, another thought occurred to him:
“Zhou He’s senior brother, Wudang Sect Leader Zhang Yunshu, is setting up a formation for The Empress Dowager there, could there be so connection?”
He quickly took out Zhou He’s Paper Crane and tapped it three tis to make contact:
“Daoist Zhou, did you see the monster in the sky? It’s looking in the direction of Chang’an, and your senior brother is also there, has he sent any word back?”
“[Lu my friend, I indeed saw it! But my senior brother has been out of contact for three days now! I am trying to find a way to reach him!]”
“Please remain calm, Daoist Zhou, I will co to see you right away.”
The answer was already quite clear at this mont.
Sect Leader Zhang Yunshu was doing work for The Empress Dowager; whoever was behind this needed no further ntion.
Zuo Gong sighed helplessly, “Alas, the current Empress Dowager of our dynasty is really… it’s no wonder that the Heavenly Demon Form has co into being.”
The advantages of joining the Wudang Sect weren’t so easy to obtain after all. Lu Yao took a deep breath and said, “Zuo Gong, you must take care of Imperial City for the ti being, I need to go to Chang’an.”
“Be extrely careful!” Zuo Gong warned gravely: “Emperor Qin’s Mausoleum is no simple place!”
Lu Yao clasped his fist in reply, “Junior understands!”
~~~~~~~~~~
The monster, akin to a celestial body, hung high in the sky, gazing down with unfettered contempt.
But the ordinary people on the ground couldn’t discern any of this, for its brilliant light made it hard to gaze upon directly, and the laypeople could at most feel a change in the sunlight.
All the Spirit Refiners above the Fetal Breath Realm on the entire planet felt the powerful ntal fluctuations and saw the giant eye in the sky.
Most people only knew it as the “Guiyi God” from the scriptures, which no one had seen for thousands of years, and no one had thought it would appear at this mont.
The forces with long-standing traditions knew even more.
At this mont, at the headquarters of Golden Lotus Sect located in Qingzhou, the leader of Golden Lotus Sect—Lin ngsheng—was looking at the giant eye in the sky, shaking with excitent!
“The God of Unity!? Truly an overwhelming force of Mind Force! It seems soone has entered Emperor Qin’s Mausoleum!”
Lin ngsheng suddenly stood up, dressed in a purple dragon robe, he ordered in a cold voice:
“Execute all those monitoring The Empress Dowager! A bunch of incompetents, such a major event and you fail to notice any disturbance!”
~~~~~~~~~
At the sa mont, the Joyful Bodhisattva also made the sa decision.
She was the first Spirit Refiner of all the powers to arrive, and was now uncontrollably furious:
“The Sumr Palace is deserted, and even the God of Unity has turned its gaze this way, and yet you claim to know nothing!”
The undertakings of The Empress Dowager affected all sides, with each sending staff overtly and covertly for surveillance.
The Joyful Sect was the most attentive, sending several capable hands, but unexpectedly, they still ended up in a passive situation.
A middle-aged woman in charge of monitoring this matter for the Joyful Sect, was now frantically pleading for rcy:
“Bodhisattva, spare ! The Empress Dowager rely had Zhang Yunshu of Wudang set up a formation that communicates heaven and Earth.
I’ve repeatedly investigated and confird that this formation is quite ordinary, at most it changes the Feng Shui of the entire Sumr Palace, making it more tranquil and suitable for living. But unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, it turned into a gate of light… and everyone disappeared!”
The Holy Maiden Yun Qinglan of the Joyful Sect interjected, “Master, what should we do? Should we descend into Emperor Qin’s Mausoleum…”
“Descend into Emperor Qin’s Mausoleum?” The Joyful Bodhisattva said with a cold smile:
“Emperor Qin’s Mausoleum has been here for over 2000 years, holding countless treasures within. Many have already ventured inside. It’s just that the outcos weren’t very pleasant.”
