Chapter 475: The Secret of the Heaven Gate
The appearance of the Thunder God rabbit also meant that Ye Bai's research had come to a complete end.
He organized his recent experimental records and sent the entire package of data to Zhang Lingxue's email.
Next, he would wait for Zhang Lingxue to review it before publishing it in a nature journal.
At this moment, the paper puppet appeared silently behind Ye Bai.
"Ye Bai, Jiang Dashi wants to see you; there is an emergency treatment mission that requires you to handle it."
Ye Bai was speechless for a moment; ever since he took over Anbao Hall, these treatment missions had come one after another, and he simply couldn't keep up.
"Time is a bit tight, let's talk while we walk."
The paper puppet waved her hand, and a spatial passage was opened by her.
"Tell me, which big shot's Pet Beast has a problem again?"
Ye Bai asked hurriedly.
"The one having problems this time is an equipment-type Exotic Beast; it is only seventh-rank, but Jiang Dashi has never treated an equipment-type Exotic Beast before."
"Heaven Gate does have detailed records, but ever since Jiang Dashi took over Heaven Gate, he has never encountered an equipment-type Exotic Beast, so he has never looked through these records."
"Now that the Exotic Beast is in critical condition, Jiang Dashi immediately called you over, hoping to save that Exotic Beast through your unique talent."
After hearing the paper puppet's words, Ye Bai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
So Jiang Dashi wanted to use his Memory Palace talent to master the method of treating equipment-type Exotic Beasts in a short time.
"Ye Bai, because the situation is urgent, you only have half an hour to look through these materials now."
"After half an hour, we will go directly to the place where that equipment-type Exotic Beast is sealed."
"Jiang Dashi is currently using Water of Life to keep that Exotic Beast alive."
The paper puppet brought Ye Bai to the library, and she opened the last room in the library, which contained several thick books.
Each book was as big as a brick.
"These books are Heaven Gate's records on how to treat equipment-type Exotic Beasts."
"This is my transmission paper doll, which can teleport to any place in Anbao Hall."
"It will remind you of the time, and after you finish reading the books, the paper doll will bring you over."
The paper puppet transformed into countless paper dolls and disappeared from where she stood.
Seeing this, Ye Bai began to flip through the books quickly.
A massive amount of knowledge flooded into Ye Bai's mind.
Treating equipment-type Pet Beasts is much more difficult than other Pet Beasts.
Like the Cold Glass Dragon, even if its whole body is fractured and covered in large-scale wounds.
For Ye Bai, it is just a matter of wielding a Surgical Knife.
But equipment-type Exotic Beasts are different.
This is no different from being sent back to the furnace to be recast.
Equipment-type Exotic Beasts are mainly divided into three parts: Vessel Soul, vessel body, and inscriptions.
Among them, the Vessel Soul is the artifact spirit, which is that after the passage of the long river of time, some props or weapons develop intelligence, and subsequently, a Soul appears.
The vessel body refers to the prop or weapon itself, which is generally cast using very rare materials and usually does not break easily.
And the inscriptions are the inscriptions engraved on their bodies to enhance the strength of the weapon, such as Gale, Sharp, etc.
Generally, when an equipment-type Pet Beast has a problem, it is either a problem with the Soul or a problem with the vessel body.
And if a problem occurs with the Vessel Soul, it is usually a major problem.
Once the Vessel Soul dies, the entire vessel body will also be affected.
To repair an equipment-type Exotic Beast, a key item like Styx Water is needed.
Not long after, Ye Bai finished reading the whole book.
He crushed the paper doll and teleported to a secret room set up with a large Barrier.
At this time, a single-horned golden dragon appeared in mid-air.
It was wailing in the Barrier, and its body was becoming increasingly transparent.
Countless Soul particles were scattering in the air.
And below was a mace broken into several pieces.
"Ye Bai, you finally arrived."
"This Golden Dragon Mace is broken, we need to hurry and repair it."
Jiang Dashi looked at Ye Bai with a serious face, and Ye Bai suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"Golden Dragon Mace, isn't this the weapon of Kang Jinlong?"
"The Golden Dragon Mace is shattered like this, where is Kang Jinlong?"
Jiang Dashi sighed: "Kang Jinlong is also still being resuscitated; Yellow Dragon Marshal is in seclusion, and in Yan Country, there are not many people who know how to repair a Soul Weapon, and they are all living in seclusion in deep mountains and old forests."
"I can't find them for the time being, so I have to treat a dead horse as a living horse now."
"I called you over to fill in temporarily."
"But I can tell you this, the Soul Weapons of the Twenty-Eight Mansions are related to the National Destiny of Yan Country."
"The divine stone you brought back is currently being engraved with the Twenty-Eight Mansions Array; once the Golden Dragon Mace is completely shattered, it will cause a very serious impact on the divine stone."
"By that time, the divine stone may suffer a backlash and show signs of cracking."
"Our Yan Country's National Destiny will drop a lot, and once the National Destiny drops, all kinds of natural and man-made disasters will emerge."
"This time, because you brought the divine stone back to Yan Country intact, the Glory Angel of the Beautiful Country could no longer sit still, so they specifically dispatched a powerful monster to intercept the Twenty-Eight Mansions."
"Kang Jinlong was executing a secret mission at that time."
"As a result, they were ambushed from behind, and the Golden Dragon Mace was also slapped to pieces by an Abyss Bone Dragon to save Kang Jinlong."
"By the time I arrived, the Abyss Bone Dragon had already retreated."
After Ye Bai understood the sequence of events, he had the Paper Puppet retrieve the Soul Water from the treasury.
According to the rules of Heaven Gate, in the event of an emergency, one may borrow a treasure from the Heaven Gate treasury once with the permission of the current sect leader.
However, after the emergency ends, the treasure or one of equal value must be returned as soon as possible.
As the guardian of the Heaven Gate treasury, the Paper Puppet naturally retrieved a deep blue bottle with great ease.
Inside, it was filled with Soul Liquid.
Ye Bai took the bottle, and he felt a shock to his Soul.
An incomparably cool aura emanated from his hands, and his brain suddenly became extremely clear.
"Ye Bai, the Twenty-Eight Mansions Array is engraved on the Golden Dragon Mace, so besides repairing the Golden Dragon Mace, you must also repair the inscriptions."
Jiang Dashi hurriedly said.
Ah, this, you are really making things difficult for me.
How to repair inscriptions, he himself did not know.
"Repairing inscriptions might be a very difficult task for others, but for you, it is very simple."
"Because you possess the talent of the Memory Palace."
"The Golden Dragon Mace appears to have been shattered into several pieces by the Abyss Bone Dragon."
"In reality, it encountered the spatial Cut of a Glory Angel."
"He cut the Golden Dragon Mace into countless fragments and displaced them."
"I have the complete blueprint of the Golden Dragon Mace; you only need to successfully piece the Golden Dragon Mace together to stop the soul of the Kang Jin Long from continuing to dissipate."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
For others, piecing together a puzzle with hundreds of thousands of fragments would take ten days or half a month, and they still wouldn't finish.
But for Ye Bai, who possesses the Memory Palace, he just needs his hands.
Ye Bai poured the Soul Liquid out of the bottle.
The Soul Liquid presented a pale blue color, condensing into a bead the size of a dragon's eye in mid-air.
Ye Bai flicked it lightly, and the bead landed on the Kang Jin Long. After the bead made contact with the Kang Jin Long, it turned into sweet nectar.
Having received the help of the Soul Liquid, the Kang Jin Long only felt an icy, cool aura permeating its soul.
Its originally illusory figure also became somewhat more solid.
"Only by repairing the Golden Dragon Mace now can the Kang Jin Long fully recover."
"Ye Bai, you must be prepared to repair the Golden Dragon Mace at any time."
Seeing that the soul of the Kang Jin Long had become somewhat more solid, Jiang Dashi let out a long sigh of relief; his heart had been hanging in his throat just a moment ago.
He was terrified that the Kang Jin Long wouldn't hold on, and he would become a sinner of Yan Country.
"Paper Puppet, you assist Ye Bai and summon a large number of paper figures to help repair the Golden Dragon Mace."
"After this Golden Dragon Mace was cut by the Chaojianqieshu, it carries spatial energy within it; if you touch the Golden Dragon Mace, you will be cut by the spatial energy."
"But the Paper Puppet's paper figures are proficient in space; within this small territory of Anbao Hall, spatial cutting will not have any effect on the paper figures."
Jiang Dashi explained to Ye Bai.
"I understand."
"Paper Puppet, help me."
The Paper Puppet's hand rested on Ye Bai's shoulder, and at this moment, she and Ye Bai were connected in heart and mind.
Ye Bai felt as if he had become the Paper Puppet, mastering all of the Paper Puppet's abilities.
Countless tiny paper figures emerged from the Paper Puppet's body.
Each of these paper figures was only the size of a thumbnail, and they surged toward the Golden Dragon Mace like a tide.
Very quickly, they submerged the Golden Dragon Mace.
At this time, Ye Bai's brain was operating at high speed; he used the complete blueprint of the Golden Dragon Mace to determine the position of every single fragment.
Thin sweat began to seep from Ye Bai's forehead, and his mental energy was being consumed on a massive scale.
"Ye Bai has already started moving, and I cannot lose to Ye Bai."
"Logistics work must be done well, otherwise it will definitely affect Ye Bai."
Jiang Dashi took action himself, and a giant rose appeared behind him.
"Thorn Rose, release the Mental Treasure Liquid to help Ye Bai recover his spirit."
The flower on the head of the Thorn Rose bloomed, and a drop of golden liquid dripped from the petals onto Ye Bai.
His brain, which had been calculating frantically, felt as if it had divine assistance after receiving the help of the Mental Treasure Liquid.
After three days and three nights of such madness, Ye Bai finally pieced the Golden Dragon Mace together.
"Very good, the next step is to eliminate the spatial power on the Golden Dragon Mace."
"To break the super Cut performed by the Glory Angel, one must use the power of a god."
"Paper Puppet, help take it out from the Shenshibaoku."
Jiang Dashi threw out a Token.
This was the Token passed down by the founder of Heaven Gate to open the divine corpse.
After the Paper Puppet unlocked the Token, her body fell away like butterflies.
Ye Bai looked closely and saw that these paper pieces were actually individual talismans.
Once the talismans had all peeled away from the Paper Puppet's body, a graceful and beautiful goddess was revealed inside.
Her dark hair hung down like a waterfall, and under the illumination of the lights, the cinnabar mark on her forehead became increasingly vivid and dripping with color.
The goddess's jade-white, bare feet stepped onto the ground, and the silver bells wrapped around her ankles emitted a tinkling sound.
It was just that a large hole had appeared in the center of the goddess's chest, and her pupils lacked even a glimmer of vitality.
She looked more like a hollow puppet, except that her body radiated an incomparably terrifying aura.
On both hands, she wore jade rings as red as fire, engraved with a large number of runes.
"Is this a fallen deity?"
"You refined a deity into a puppet?"
Ye Bai was greatly shocked.
"You should know that Blue Star is connected to multi-dimensional worlds, right?"
"Apart from worlds that have already birthed advanced civilizations, there are also many fellows like the Creator God who open up the heavens and earth."
"And these Creator Gods are collectively referred to as Pan."
"This is a unique race that is born with the ability to open up worlds."
"And this one is called Panguang; her divine artifact is a mirror."
"According to the records of the Heaven Gate founder, when they discovered Panguang, her body was pierced through by a black spear."
"The fragments of the mirror were scattered across the heavens and the myriad worlds."
"The Heaven Gate founder also expended a tremendous amount of effort to seal the black spear and repair this divine corpse."
At this moment, Ye Bai felt very strange: "Master, why is she a Creator God yet so weak? I see her strength is currently only around the Ninth Rank."
Jiang Dashi glared at Ye Bai in annoyance: "Not every Creator God is powerful; she must have been a deity of Weak Divine Power while she was alive."
"This kind of deity called Pan masters the Laws of Creation."
"And after her laws were plundered by others, her strength surely declined."
"However, I can tell you this: her current strength is Ninth Rank, but her physical body is at the level of Weak Divine Power."
"This is also the greatest secret of our Heaven Gate."
Beneath the body of the paper puppet, there was actually a sealed divine corpse hidden; Ye Bai found it inconceivable.
"Originally, the paper puppet was just a talisman to seal the divine corpse, but in the process of long-term contact with the divine corpse, it developed self-awareness."
"That is why the founder cultivated the paper puppet into the inheritance of our Heaven Gate."
"Ye Bai, one day, if deities invade Blue Star, and if the majority of Yan Country's territory is occupied by deities."
"At that time, you must release the divine corpse and let it attack indiscriminately."
"This is a message passed down through the generations by our Heaven Gate founder."
"As the last successor of Heaven Gate, you must carry out this task for the founder."
"Your inheritance Token and the Token I just handed to the paper puppet have the same effect; both are keys to unsealing the divine corpse."
"I won't say much more now; the most important thing right now is to let the divine corpse break the Glory Angel's super Cut."
Jiang Dashi activated the talisman, and they saw the divine corpse lift its very stiff hand and point heavily at the Golden Dragon Mace.
Hearing a series of crackling sounds, the space Cut unleashed by the Glory Angel was completely broken at this moment.
Far away in the Beautiful Country, the Glory Angel instantly felt a backlash coming from the void.
He made a prompt decision and directly abandoned a portion of his mental power, his spirit suddenly becoming withered and miserable.
"Damn it, how is Yan Country so fast to have broken my space Cut?"
"There's no reason for this; my space Cut cannot even be broken by deities of Weak Divine Power, so why would Yan Country have such strength?"
