Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Moments later, Old Man Xuan and Qi continued their surging arcane energy and psyche. The images of the anvil, furnace, hammer, and bellow had also fallen onto their bodies.
The two old men then sat in the lotus position, studying the new knowledge they had just acquired.
The gods were all left in shock, they inspected Tian Pan carefully. Was there really a treasure that could wield endless wisdom and derive stronger and better cultivation arts and techniques, skills, and weapons? Could it really find all the inadequacies in the arts and techniques and repair the weaknesses of skills and weapons?
How would there be such a rule-defying treasure?
“Mister Yi, this Tian Pan, was it the divine weapon that had attracted the heaven and earth’s Daos to congratulate its birth?”
Ti Mobei looked at Tian Pan and abruptly asked, “When you forged the divine weapon, even the monarchs came to fight for it. It was a huge ruckus back then. Was this Tian Pan the divine weapon?”
Zhong Yue smiled and nodded, “For those of you that don’t believe it, you may try it for yourself.”
The gods were excited and Ti Mobei stepped forth, he laughed, “A treasure that even monarchs fought over it, it must be exceptional! Let me try!”
He surged his arcane energy and covered his psyche in the center. Like a flash of a rainbow, his arcane energy and psyche were rammed into Tian Pan. Immediately, the Dao patterns started changing and reforming in calculations.
He was deriving the Titing Clan’s monarch art, trying to attain knowledge that he couldn’t have acquired himself from the monarch art!
Ti Mobei was already on his on way of cultivation. He was trying to infuse the Six Paths Reincarnations into one of Titing Clan’s ancient monarch arts. However, trying to revamp a monarch art was a task too difficult for him to do alone. Even as the most talented genius of the Titing Clan, Ti Mobei’s progress was still slow as a snail’s pace over the years.
But with the help of the Tian Pan, his monarch art was slowly seeing completion. This monarch art came from the era of Five Paths Reincarnation, but now, it was gradually deriving into an art that was perfectly compatible with the Six Paths Reincarnation!
Ti Mobei was shocked and overjoyed, but he could feel the depletion of his arcane energy, he alone couldn’t maintain the Tian Pan’s operation any longer and he quickly shouted, “Senior martial siblings of the Titing Clan, quickly come, help me!”
The Titing Clan experts all stepped forward, including an Imperial Emperor. They surged their arcane energies into Tian Pan and kept it in operation. Slowly, the monarch art was finally completed with the Six Paths Reincarnation fully infused in it.
Ti Mobei was overjoyed, he kept his arcane energy and the cultivation art also fell from the sky, disappearing into his mind.
“What a treasure!” Ti Mobei praised in unparalleled joy.
Immediately, many young experts stepped forth and cast their energies into Tian Pan. They were also using it to derive their cultivation arts and techniques, skills, and weapons, trying to amend the flaws in their cultivations.
However, not anyone could cast Tian Pan. Deities, Heavenly Deities, and True Deities were too weak to even make Tian Pan operate with their arcane energies, they could only request the more powerful experts to help them.
As the crowd swarmed in, they quickly noticed that Tian Pan was able to support dozens of calculations at a time without any interference. Its terrifyingly powerful calculatory ability couldn’t help but attract even Lou Zhengshi, Pan Ji, and the other Imperial Emperors. They too stepped forth and used the Tian Pan’s power to perfect and improve their cultivations!
Zhong Yue walked down from the Heavenly Deity Altar and left the Tian Pan for the lively gods to use.
“Mister Yi, you are using the future monarchs’ wisdom to forge your treasure, aren’t you?” All of a sudden, Xuan Ji smiled from the side.
Zhong Yue looked at him and admitted openly, he smiled, “Indeed I am. This treasure is not complete yet. I’m afraid I still won’t be able to perfect it into its final state even after I’ve become a monarch. I suppose it’s because I am just one man, and that there will always be an end to my power. However, if the future monarchs’ wisdom can be taken into the equation, it may just reach its final state one day. While the Tian Pan helps them in perfecting their cultivations, their wisdom and knowledge will also help the Tian Pan grow and perfect itself. Brother Xuan Ji, how was your Tian Xuan Chariot perfected?”
Xuan Ji shook, “It was not me who forged it. The chariot was bestowed by Heaven. It has reached its peak, there is no more room for improvements.”
Zhong Yue slanted his body as he asked, “Can you show me?”
Xuan Ji cast out Tian Xuan Chariot and smiled, “Mister, please look.”
Zhong Yue moved around the chariot and inspected meticulously, he praised, “What a treasure, it’s far beyond me. I cannot deduce anything from it.”
Xuan Ji smiled, “It’s a treasure bestowed by Heaven. If Mister Yi, you are able to see through it, you will be a Dao God already. You are far from perfecting Tian Pan, and even if you did, you are only doing it for Heaven. It is Heaven’s treasure, belonging to Heaven itself only, mortals are not to stain it with their hands.”
Zhong Yue laughed, “Good talk, good talk. If Heaven wants it, then they can come and take it.”
Rays brimmed in Xuan Ji’s eyes, he replied insouciantly, “Mister Yi, you know what brings me here, don’t you? Whatever you have obtained from the Fuxi Ancestral Court, Heaven wants it too. Mister Yi, please hand it over to me.”
Zhong Yue nodded, still smiling as he asked, “I wonder how many Fuxi monarch arts Brother Xuan Ji learned?”
Xuan Ji smiled, “Whatever you know, I know; whatever you don’t, I also know.”
Zhong Yue smiled brighter, “Since you’ve learned it all, then why do you still want me to hand them to you?”
Xuan Ji’s smile also grew brighter, “Mister Yi, you refusing to hand it over is making things hard for me.”
Zhong Yue answered placidly, “Since Heaven knows it all, then why does it matter if I don’t?”
Xuan Ji smiled even brighter, he said softly, “Why are you hurrying to die?”
Zhong Yue cast out the Innate Yi Dao and asked placidly, “I have a mirror, Brother Xuan Ji, do you want to take a look?”
Xuan Ji laughed and so did Zhong Yue.
“Mister Yi, you sure like to joke around.” Xuan Ji shook with a smile, “But too much joking around will bring death to your doorstep.”
Zhong Yue’s face was filled with joy. “Many have died under my jokes, I don’t mind making one more joke. Brother Xuan Ji, didn’t you see, how the ancient paragons you were with in the Ancestral Court died by my jokes?”
“Hahahahah!” The two exchanged a look and laughed loudly together like two old friends.
Yi Wanjun was puzzled, not knowing why were they laughing. Just when she planned to walk toward them, she saw Zhong Yue’s strained muscles on his face. Although he was laughing, there wasn’t any joy in his eyes. Whereas in the mirror formed by his Innate Yi Dao, the young man’s face had no eyes, no ears, no nose, no mouth, no hairs, no smile, and nowhere the laughter came from!
Yi Wanjun was shocked, she quickly stopped Shi Yinji who was also walking toward them and she gestured at the mirror. Shi Yinji was also shocked when she saw the faceless man in the mirror and quickly stopped.
The ladies were shifting their gaze between Xuan Ji and the mirror. Xuan Ji has an ordinary face, but when reflected in the mirror, he appeared to be faceless!
“Darling has raised his killing intent.” Yi Wanjun whispered, “Look at him, the brighter he smiles, the more killing intent he has. However, he has raised a strong vigilance to the faceless being beside him, this means that the faceless being is extremely strong, darling has no confidence against it.”
Shi Yinji looked carefully and nodded, she whispered softly, “Who is this faceless man?”
Yi Wanjun replied puzzlingly, “How do you know it’s a man? It’s not a man.”
Shi Yinji was stunned, she exclaimed, “It’s a she?”
“No, not a lady either.” Yi Wanjun shook, “The We Tian Suo Celestial Race are masters of knitting clothes, so we inherently have sharp eyes. We can easily tell if one is a man or a lady. This faceless being is neither one, it has no gender.”
Shi Yinji glared her eyes wide, a genderless and faceless god, was there really a race like that?
A few months’ time passed in the blink of an eye. Most of the gods had already used the Tian Pan to perfect their cultivation arts and techniques, skills, and weapons. They all derived their ways to amend their weaknesses and inadequateness.
This Treasure of Heavenly Dao had helped everyone clearing out their questions and obstructions in their cultivations. Its calculatory ability was nigh divine!
Even the innate gods were moved by its power. There were over a dozen of them that have eventually used Tian Pan to improve their cultivations.
And with the future monarchs’ wisdom flowing into Tian Pan, more abstruse Dao patterns appeared on its surface. The treasure’s potential had increased tremendously as it grew closer and closer to perfection!
After all, while the 17,000 future monarchs surged their arcane energies into the Tian Pan and used it to derive their Daos, arts and techniques, skills, and weapons. The Tian Pan would also receive all this information and absorb them into its structure. Thus, the Tian Pan now was countless times stronger compared to before as it had now gathered all the wisdom of the 17,000 future monarchs!
The heavenly aura emanating from the Tian Pan grew stronger, to a level beyond what Zhong Yue could ever have hoped to forge it into. This was the benefit of gathering the future monarchs’ wisdom!
Then, when the gods finished, Zhong Yue kept the Tian Pan away. The Heaven Breaching Fortress immediately grew lively like a marketplace. The future monarchs were discussing their attainments with the others. From time to time, there would be gods that entered the Heavenly Deity Altar to compete with one another.
Zhong Yue inspected the Tian Pan and rays flashed across his eyes. Inside the Tian Pan were now the wisdom of 17,000 future monarchs. Their cultivation arts and techniques, skills, weapons, genius ideas, uncommon ways of cultivating, knowledge, and attainments. Every single morsel of this information was priceless!
Him opening access Tian Pan to the future monarchs for them to perfect their cultivations was not a shady conspiracy but an upright and frank scheme. If one was unwilling to provide his wisdom, he just has to stand aside and not use the Tian Pan.
However, if one used the Tian Pan, it will definitely leave behind the traces of his cultivations inside of it and also help Tian Pan perfect itself.
Two heads were better one, let alone 17,000 heads. Gathering the future monarchs’ wisdom together and selecting the best of the best out of them… this was Zhong Yue’s intention of holding the General Assembly of Future Monarchs.
Although Xuan Ji had seen through his intentions, he couldn’t stop Zhong Yue from executing the plan. Even if he did tell the future monarchs that the Tian Pan could absorb their wisdom and perfect itself into a stronger Treasure of Heavenly Dao, they still would use it.
Months later, in the Heaven Court’s military camp. Heavenly Monarch Di Ming abruptly stood up and said to Queen Goddess, “Zitong, we can move now.”
Queen Goddess stood up, she said, “Your Majesty, King Yi killed my beloved daughter, this time we will head to the Heaven Breaching Fortress and…”
“No.”
Heavenly Monarch Di Ming was placid. He held the queen’s hand as they strolled for the Heaven Breaching Fortress. He was calm like the sea when he said, “He is not our target. King Yi will be handled by someone from a great background. We only have one target!”
He looked up, his gaze was deep and penetrated through the void.
“Mu Xiantian!”
