Chapter 399: The stars shift, the Great Dao of the epoch, the Tomb Realm of Biographies

"Zhao Xing, you've finally come out!" Sensing Zhao Xing coming out of the cultivation space, Jing Yan immediately appeared in front of him. "I have something to find you for."

"You've come at the right time; I also have something to find you for." Zhao Xing said. "You speak first."

"I received news from Starfire," Jing Yan said mysteriously: "Starfire intends to carry out a 【Star Shifting Plan】, wanting to bypass other ancient kingdoms and also bypass the starry sky array of the Yueluo Mausoleum to secretly explore."

"Star Shifting Plan?" Zhao Xing was stunned, "Do you mean moving the star continents inside the Yueluo Mausoleum out through an array? That shouldn't be possible, right?"

The Yueluo Mausoleum is guarded by a starry sky array; the boundary stars, star continents, and small worlds inside it cannot be moved away.

The Star Shifting Plan is also called the Star Stealing Plan or the Grave Relocation Plan.

It's not that ancient kingdoms haven't tried to take the entire Yueluo Mausoleum back to their own territory and study it slowly, but they all failed in the end.

"It's not that kind of large-scale array that moves things out from the inside, but moving from the outside to the inside."

"Look."

Jing Yan reached out and waved, and dots of starlight formed a brilliant galaxy, the mysterious trajectory of operation like an array.

A yellow dot appeared outside the galaxy, the yellow dot expanded, slowly rotated, and became a model of a micro star continent.

"Look, this continent is currently outside the Yueluo Mausoleum."

"After being anchored by the array, this continent will cross the array and the ancient kingdom's monitoring means, appearing directly inside."

Zhao Xing said with interest: "The Empire also can't help but get involved?"

Jing Yan wiped his hand, and the star map disappeared: "Empire? What Empire? I don't know what you're talking about. How about you take an oath first? It's not that I don't trust you, but that side requires a process."

Zhao Xing nodded: "I take an oath with my Life Soul not to leak any of the news I just learned."

Only then did Jing Yan continue: "The importance of the Yueluo Mausoleum is becoming more and more obvious, and everyone wants a piece of the pie. Do you want to do it together?"

Zhao Xing didn't answer in a hurry, but asked: "Don't be in such a hurry. Since that's the case, why doesn't Starfire do it themselves? Why pull in an outsider like me? I even feel you shouldn't have been pulled in either."

"Although you are a member of the Wang Zu, Starfire doesn't serve Wang Zu members. They have people and money; there's no reason to look for you or me."

Jing Yan said in surprise: "Brother, do you have some misunderstanding about Starfire?"

Zhao Xing said: "Please instruct me."

"Starfire doesn't lack money... Can you use Starfire's encrypted communication channel?"

"Starfire doesn't lack activity funds, but the problem is that there must be mission activities to do."

Zhao Xing quickly tasted the meaning: "You mean to say that the Starfire department of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom hasn't received permission from the Empire for the operation in the Yueluo Mausoleum, so there aren't many activity funds?"

Jing Yan gave a thumbs up: "Correct. The Empire's procedures are very complicated. Now that the situation in the eighteen ancient kingdoms is chaotic, the Empire is far away. By the time all the procedures and formalities are handled, the food will be cold!"

"The Empire also can't come openly. If they did, how many powerhouses would they have to send to stand firm? They would probably also be guarded against by the Wasteland Ancient Kingdom Alliance."

"So the Empire definitely won't appear in the Illusion God Star System; only Starfire itself will do it."

"Then how many people will Starfire send themselves?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Starfire will send three people," Jing Yan said: "Three Great Divine Ability Realm cultivators, and the rest are those who have cooperated with Starfire many times. I am following one of the Great Divine Ability Realm cultivators."

"And how many percent of the profits will you get?"

"A guaranteed one percent, but I have to pull in at least one or two experts to eat this one percent, otherwise people won't work with me. If there's extra performance, we'll talk about it then."

"You said you wanted to send the Great Zhou people to Red Star; this is a good opportunity."

Zhao Xing laughed: "Good fellow."

Starfire uses three of their own people, and the rest are found outside. As for wages, pensions, etc., there are none; there is only an "informant" status.

Empty-handed white wolf is played clearly.

Zhao Xing estimated that if this batch of people found something good, Starfire might increase the stakes, but without clear benefits, it was absolutely impossible to send out Starfire's own experts.

Would anyone be willing to do this? Don't even mention it, there are plenty!

Starfire can solve the Empire's identity and bring the Great Zhou to migrate there. He has this need, and powerhouses from other small dynasties must also have this need.

Without this connection from Jing Yan, ordinary people wouldn't be able to get on Starfire's line at all; Starfire wouldn't bird them.

"You can think about it first, but don't let me wait too long. By the way, what were you going to tell me?" Jing Yan asked.

Zhao Xing pondered and directly released a star map: "Look, this is Naluo No. 21, a top-level star continent. Coordinates: Taiyin 21, Cang'er 3, Tiangou 15. Geng Metal 7, Yi Wood 1."

"It is a desolate and barren star continent, with no vitality at all, and the environment is very harsh. Even the eighteen ancient kingdoms that are fighting don't want to touch it."

Jing Yan looked at this star map without any expression: "And then?"

Zhao Xing said: "I received news that King Tianji has finished exploring the Boka Star Continent and is shifting the focus of his exploration."

"He has circled several pieces of land. I plan to join in as a Marquis of the Ancient Kingdom and then accept his protection to explore."

There are not many powerhouses in the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom who are qualified to circle land in the Yueluo Mausoleum. Du Yun doesn't have this foundation; he himself is strong, but his power is not huge.

So Du Yun also just guards the logistics base and doesn't organize people himself to fight for territory.

Among these powerhouses, King Tianji counts as one, because he is a big shot in the military of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom and has a high status.

Originally, King Tianji didn't move, and Zhao Xing didn't plan to go, because many locations around the Boka Star Continent had been occupied by King Tianji's subordinates, and there was no share for outsiders. Even if there was, there was no good benefit to be divided.

It's different now. Lu Yuehan told him the news that King Tianji was shifting the focus of his exploration.

King Tianji, who had dug up a Thousand Star Vine, tasted the sweetness and was planning to launch a sneak attack, snatching territory from a first-class force of the Yanyue Ancient Kingdom.

So King Tianji was also recruiting troops. Zhao Xing was a Si Nong and a Marquis, and had the Eight Epochs of Purple Light. He wouldn't have any problems being a grain officer under King Tianji, not having to face the battlefield directly, and being able to explore places smoothly. This was naturally a good opportunity.

And Naluo No. 21 was Zhao Xing's target.

Don't look at it as having no value now, but in the meteorite belt next to Naluo No. 21, there is an entrance to a small world.

There is a Dao Domain Realm scholar's imperial tomb there!

"Brother, I'm a bit jealous." Jing Yan said sourly: "Why didn't Lu Yuehan tell me these things, but told you?"

"She thinks I'm with you. This kind of thing is still a secret, so naturally she won't tell the whole world." Zhao Xing comforted.

"Fine, I won't go to King Tianji's side." Jing Yan shook his head: "That person has plenty of talent under his command. If I go, I'm afraid I won't be able to get any oil or water."

Jing Yan originally wanted to pull Zhao Xing into the group, but seeing that Zhao Xing had his own plans, he decided to give up.

"Since you want to go to King Tianji's side, forget about Starfire."

"Don't forget it." Zhao Xing pulled Jing Yan, "I want to go to King Tianji's side, and I also want to go to your side."

"Brother, how are you going to go?"

"I have a clone."

Jing Yan shook his head: "Starfire doesn't want loafers. Your clone is only at the Void Law stage, and its combat power is average."

The Giant Yang clone at the Void Law stage is actually stronger than an ordinary Second Realm cultivator.

However, Jing Yan only wants elites. If Zhao Xing's clone is only at the Void Law level, it doesn't meet the requirements.

Even if he wants to take Zhao Xing to make a fortune, Jing Yan won't joke about this kind of thing.

"Do you want a Giant Yang clone at the Divine Ability Realm?" Zhao Xing said flatly.

"Divine Ability Realm?" Jing Yan was stunned, "You practiced the Straw Man divine ability?"

"Mm." Zhao Xing nodded. "Practiced the first Giant Yang clone."

"Let me see." Jing Yan was very interested.

The cultivation space was ready-made, and Zhao Xing immediately invited Jing Yan in.

Then he released the Giant Yang clone.

"Big, big, big!"

Zhao Xing controlled the clone to keep growing larger.

Finally, a behemoth appeared in front of Jing Yan, overlooking the earth.

"How about it, brother? Is my clone qualified to join the team?"

Jing Yan looked at this giant that looked like a sun. Just looking at it was dazzling, and even he felt a tremor from the oppression.

"Let me try a move!"

"You can come as you please." The Giant Yang clone hooked its finger.

"Swish~" Jing Yan's hands appeared with the Myriad Law Dao soldier, and at the same time, twelve Wandering God mechanical Dao soldiers also appeared.

The Breaking Dao Needle was useless, because that was aimed at mages. The Giant Yang clone didn't have a Dao field to use for defense; the physical body was the strongest defense!

"Void into soldiers!"

Jing Yan's twelve Wandering Gods, a total of twelve parts, each exquisite part emitted rays of light, combined with the Taiyin and Taiyang origins, and performed combinations in the air.

Soon twelve mechanical giants appeared around the Giant Yang clone.

The Giant Yang clone maintained a height of ten thousand feet, while the twelve Wandering Gods were smaller.

The twelve Wandering Gods turned into twelve mechanism Dao soldiers, each with different characteristics, but without exception, they were all at the peak of the Second Realm.

The twelve Wandering Gods had a fierce aura and were themselves made of top-level boundary star Dao soldier materials, while the Giant Yang clone was sturdy and indestructible.

When Jing Yan controlled the twelve Wandering Gods to launch the "Wandering God Dao" attack, Zhao Xing remained motionless.

He let the twelve mechanism Dao soldiers attack his physical body.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!"

Twelve attacks struck various parts of the Giant Yang clone, spiritual energy surged, origins splashed, seemingly forming "smoke and dust."

Zhao Xing blew a breath, and the smoke and dust disappeared.

Jing Yan looked closely and saw that his attack had only left a white mark on the Giant Yang clone.

It didn't even break the skin!

Zhao Xing said proudly: "How about it?"

"Damn!" Jing Yan couldn't help but blurt out, "Too exaggerated, brother."

"My twelve Wandering Gods Void into soldiers, together casting 'Wandering God Dao', definitely have the attack might of the early stage of the Third Realm."

"You didn't even break the skin?"

"Is there no justice?"

"Hahahaha." Zhao Xing was in a great mood after being said so by Jing Yan.

The Giant Yang clone was indeed tough enough and strong enough!

After all, he had used half of his net worth to buy precious materials from the Xu Zu Star System. In terms of defense alone, the Giant Yang clone was comparable to a low-grade Taiyin Dao soldier!

Because the materials that made it up were themselves at the same level as a Taiyin Dao soldier.

The Straw Man divine ability integrated these precious materials, and Zhao Xing practiced it to the Sixth Stage of divine ability, which was already the limit of the Small Divine Ability Realm.

A Third Realm Small Divine Ability martial artist who practices the Giant Yang Golden Body would be weaker than the Giant Yang Straw Man clone in terms of defense alone.

The only advantage is that martial artists will be born with physical divine abilities, while the Giant Yang Straw Man itself is the embodiment of the Straw Man Method divine ability and will not possess additional physical divine abilities.

"Not only can it resist, but it can also fight." Zhao Xing controlled the Giant Yang clone, and with a thought, it appeared five million miles away.

"Over sixteen times the speed of light?" Jing Yan's eyes shone. "With such a large body, it can still move so fast, simply amazing!"

"No wonder you stayed back then."

Zhao Xing's Giant Yang clone was simply a flexible fat man.

In the Origin stage, 20 times the speed of light is generally the limit, unless it is a monster like Du Yun who can continue to improve, and every increase of one time costs a huge price.

In the face of such speed and power, all the fancy stuff can be directly pushed over.

"Do you want me to continue showing you?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Enough, enough, put away the divine ability." Jing Yan's eyes were red with envy.

Zhao Xing's divine ability was absolutely enough.

It just so happened that he was a mechanism master, and Zhao Xing's Giant Yang clone was a set with him, greatly increasing his safety.

Swish, Zhao Xing controlled the Giant Yang clone to return to its normal size; changing size at will was the basic operation of the Giant Yang clone.

"When are we leaving?" Zhao Xing asked.

"At most one year." Jing Yan said.

"Are you still planning to recruit someone?" Zhao Xing asked.

"Correct." Jing Yan nodded. "But I only intend to want two people; if there are too many people, it's not easy to divide the money."

"Do you have a suitable candidate?" Zhao Xing asked.

"You have one?" Jing Yan looked at Zhao Xing. "Let's say it first, I don't want people from the Great Zhou; this is serious business."

The Great Zhou now also had a few Second Realm cultivators; Liu Liu Tianning and Xia Jing were already in the Second Realm.

However, their Second Realm combat power was a bit weak, and Jing Yan didn't think they could adventure with him.

"No, not from the Great Zhou." Zhao Xing thought of Yu Tianqing. This matter had danger; it wasn't something where one could bring capital into the group, so he naturally wouldn't joke about Jing Yan's and his own half net worth.

"It's a Third Realm mechanism martial artist."

"How is the combat power? How did you meet?" Jing Yan asked two key questions.

"It's a long story. I'll call him over for you to see." Zhao Xing said.

"How long will it take?"

"He can come now."

"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom~"

The target star trembled endlessly, and Yu Tianqing's figure returned to Jing Yan and Zhao Xing.

The final combat power of Yu Tianqing was displayed as 38125, which was a multiple value based on the standard combat power of the First Realm.

Generally speaking, the standard of the Second Realm is 100 times the standard of the First Realm, and the standard of the Third Realm is 100 times that of the Second Realm.

The limit value is "85425," which is an explosive move, because Yu Tianqing also mastered a small divine ability.

"The combat method is okay, but the equipment is a bit poor." Jing Yan commented.

Yu Tianqing's normal combat power reached 3.8 times the standard of the Third Realm.

This was quite good. That kind of expert who can fight ten of the same rank and a hundred of the same rank is not Chinese cabbage and cannot be found casually.

The explosive move could reach more than 80,000, which was already quite good.

And Yu Tianqing's equipment was not luxurious. He had earned quite a lot of money over the past few hundred years, but he was not very willing to spend it.

Zhao Xing was also a bit puzzled: "Brother, Huazi and Le Yao have earned quite a lot. How come your equipment is still like this?"

Jing Yan also looked over, because Yu Tianqing didn't have a single Taiyin Dao soldier. The exoskeleton on his body was only at the top-level boundary star level. To be honest, for the Third Realm, this was truly a bit shabby.

"I don't think there's any chance to enter the Yueluo Mausoleum again, so I didn't buy expensive equipment." Yu Tianqing replied.

"What level are your 108 mechanism bones?" Jing Yan asked.

"Top-level boundary star Dao soldier."

"Is it a set?"

"No, the leg bones of the lower body use the Yulong set, the spine is 'Tianbo', and the upper body and hand bones use the 'Yuanli' suit parts."

Jing Yan looked at Zhao Xing somewhat blankly: "Tianbo, Yuanli, Yulong... what brand is this? Have you heard of it?"

He and Zhao Xing were both rich and willing to spend money; they basically didn't look at miscellaneous brands.

He really hadn't heard of the others.

Zhao Xing gave Jing Yan a look, signaling him not to ask anymore.

What else to ask? Exoskeletons aside, the core mechanical battle body hadn't even gathered a set of top-level boundary star Dao soldiers.

Yu Tianqing was somewhat embarrassed by Jing Yan's few questions.

Zhao Xing now understood that Yu Tianqing actually had the money to change into a better set.

The reason he didn't change was mainly because he was afraid of poverty.

The experience of being locked in a prison and rotting because he had no money back then had left some psychological shadow on Yu Tianqing.

Zhao Xing estimated that Yu Tianqing still intended to keep some money for the development of his hometown, the Pangze Dynasty.

He was very similar to Liu Liu Tianning; he estimated that if he had money, he would leave a portion for his family.

It would be impolite to keep asking.

"Old Yu." Zhao Xing pulled Yu Tianqing aside to chat, "This job is not easy. If you want to take it, you have to change into a better set of equipment."

Yu Tianqing said in a low voice: "I still have 2.9 billion Yuanhai coins; is that enough?"

Sure enough, this big brother only had 2.9 billion Yuanhai coins left again.

Zhao Xing didn't need to ask where the rest of the money went.

Besides sending it back, what other possibility could there be?

"Zhao Xing, am I losing face for you..." Yu Tianqing was somewhat embarrassed.

"Don't say that." Zhao Xing waved his hand: "I'll lend you a sum; you don't need to consider paying me back for the time being, and there's no interest."

He didn't dare to talk to Yu Tianqing about money anymore, because after cultivating the will divine ability, he could already perceive the fluctuation of Yu Tianqing's Dao heart.

If he kept talking about this, he was afraid that Yu Tianqing's Dao heart would collapse due to poverty.

Yu Tianqing nodded. This mission might not have much money, but he was willing to go, because it had obvious benefits for his hometown dynasty.

The Pangze Dynasty was still hiding in a corner of a star system with a low spiritual energy index, so he would definitely not give up on this mission from Starfire.

"Good, you don't need to think about anything else." Zhao Xing patted Yu Tianqing on the shoulder, "You go shopping with Jing Yan. You don't need to worry about how much money you spend; he is someone I trust, and you can also trust him."

Yu Tianqing took a deep breath: "Good."

In the year 1146 of the Shixin era, Zhao Xing acted in two directions.

The Giant Yang clone followed Jing Yan and Yu Tianqing to a hidden corner of the Illusion God Star System, which was also the location designated by the Starfire organization.

Soon, the Great Divine Ability Realm cultivator leading this group of Jing Yan appeared.

"My name is Bai Yang, and I am a Sword Sect martial artist."

Zhao Xing's heart sank, because he found that the first sentence of this person was concealing something.

【Name: Yang Baihe】

【Profession: Starry Sky Shi Guan, Martial Artist】

【Realm: Great Divine Ability Realm】

【Martial Skill (Small Divine Ability): Floating Slaughter Sword Method, Three-Cut Sword.】

【Spell: Time Retracing (Great Divine Ability), Epoch Summoning Technique (Great Divine Ability)】

Because there was only a difference in combat power and no major difference in level, Zhao Xing almost saw through Bai Yang's foundation.

The information obtained made Zhao Xing feel very shocked in his heart.

Because this person's martial artist identity was actually a cover, and his true power lay in the profession of Starry Sky Shi Guan.

"Two great divine abilities, both are from a historian, yet he claims to be a martial artist?"

"Time Retracing can view scenes that happened in the past in a certain place, which is not rare, but this person's core 'History Book' can actually summon historical figures from the 'Epoch'?"

Zhao Xing was truly somewhat surprised.

The core of the Starry Sky Shi Guan profession is a "History Book" in the body.

Combat-type historians usually have five categories of professional spells: Epoch, Family, Biography, Ten Tables, and Eight Books.

Those who cultivate 【Eight Books】 have relatively mixed abilities, including Dao Rites, Music, Musical Temperament, Star Calendar, Astronomy, and Sealing Talk (another saying is Altar). Some abilities are somewhat similar to the Pang Yuan Qi version of Ritual Cultivators, but not entirely.

The abilities in the Eight Books basically have no combat power, and the auxiliary functions are not obvious, because other professions are much stronger than historians.

Grouping people is much stronger than historians. Except for special events like grave digging, the historian profession can be said to be a proper sewer.

【Ten Tables】 is the chronological table of major events in the epoch, covering everything from the Xuanling Star Domain to the major historical events of ancient kingdoms.

【Ten Tables】 has several spells that are quite famous: Retracing Time, Correcting History (Memory), Deleting History (Deleting people's memories of certain secret histories).

Its core spell points all revolve around the past, confusing, correcting, and reproducing historical scenes, etc.

【Ten Tables】 is an auxiliary path; to cultivate it, one must have awesome talent, otherwise one can only cultivate 【Eight Books】 and be a slacker.

The combat type cultivates 【Biography】, 【Family】, and 【Epoch】.

They can summon well-known figures from history to fight!

【Epoch】 summons emperors, and the most powerful great divine ability related to 【Epoch】 can even summon the level of "Ancient Kingdom Lord," which is the Samsara Realm!

"This person absolutely possesses the combat power of the Dao Domain Realm, and is even comparable to a Yin-Yang Dao Domain Realm cultivator, and possesses many bonuses in the Yueluo Mausoleum."

"What exactly is Starfire trying to do? This mission doesn't look that simple." Zhao Xing thought in his heart.

"... Alright, that's all I have to say." Bai Yang smiled: "You are all experts who have walked the universe for many years, and this isn't the first or second time you've cooperated with Starfire. You know the rules."

"I will emphasize one last point: all actions must obey commands, because this time our star shifting and position changing will appear directly inside the ancient tomb. If anyone doesn't obey commands, it will not only affect their own safety but also the lives of others!"

Bai Yang's smile faded, and his voice was somewhat cold: "If anyone is stupid and thinks they are smart, don't blame me for being ruthless. Believe me, I have enough ability to solve the fools. Do you understand?"

"Understood." Everyone nodded.

Bai Yang brought a total of five small teams, including Jing Yan's group, with a total of thirty people.

Starfire looked for loose cultivators so that they wouldn't be constrained by certain oaths or means of major forces. Some of them even had horns, as if they were mixed-race between humans and demons.

After Bai Yang finished speaking, he let everyone stand on top of a cylinder, standing around him.

The starry sky above their heads began its first transformation.

"The Star Shifting and Pulse Fixing Array of the Ancient Hill, accurate to the level of the earth vein. No wonder they say they are going directly into the ancient tomb... Such a small and exquisite array can probably only be obtained by an organization of the Red Star Empire." Zhao Xing thought to himself.

The Star Shifting Plan is small-scale, and it is expected to be completely finished in seven years.

So Zhao Xing had to see a total of seven transformations of the starry sky above his head before he could be considered to have reached the tomb.

The Giant Yang clone waited on Starfire's side, while Zhao Xing's true self, after reporting to Du Yun, arrived at the Tianji Star Continent.

King Tianji is a Life-Death Dao Domain Realm cultivator, so he naturally wouldn't personally summon a Small Divine Ability Realm cultivator.

However, the status of Marquis of Wuling was still quite useful. The one who came out to meet Zhao Xing was also a Marquis of the Yin-Yang Dao Domain Realm, named Lei Yunde.

"Marquis of Wuling, Zhao Xing, a Si Nong of the Small Divine Ability Realm."

"Well, your combat power is a bit weak, and you don't have much combat power." Lei Yunde looked at Zhao Xing's data.

On it, there was only one small divine ability, the Eight Epochs of Purple Light, and the rest were Void Laws.

Zhao Xing's comprehensive combat power evaluation was only 1.5 (compared to the Third Realm standard).

Only the Eight Epochs of Purple Light was worth mentioning.

Zhao Xing had hidden the Three Gods Life Palace and the Tearing Origin divine ability and did not report them.

"Lord Lei, my combat power is indeed a bit weak, but I only want to be a logistics officer. Even if the money is a bit lower, it doesn't matter." Zhao Xing cupped his hands.

"Mm." Lei Yunde nodded. They recruited Si Nong, not to let Si Nong fight.

In fact, there were quite a few Si Nong experts under King Tianji, but now that they were opening up new areas, there weren't enough people.

"Do you have a place you want to go?" Lei Yunde waved his hand, and star maps appeared. "You can choose a place to go. The chaos index and danger coefficient are marked on this."

Zhao Xing was a person recommended by the Yutan Hou Fu. Since the intermediary was strong enough, he couldn't be arranged casually.

Zhao Xing pretended to check carefully and quickly chose Naluo No. 21 Star Continent according to the plan: "Lord, I am willing to go here."

Lei Yunde took a look. Naluo No. 21 is a collective name for star continent groups. There are multiple star continents gathered together. The place Zhao Xing chose had a relatively low danger coefficient because the chaos index was high, so naturally few people went there.

"Can." Lei Yunde agreed. "Finally, I want to remind you of one point."

"You are a Si Nong of the Small Divine Ability Realm; your pension is about 150 billion Yuanhai coins."

"If you die in battle, your pension and relics will be handed over to Lu Yuehan." Lei Yunde said.

"Yes, subordinate understands." Zhao Xing cupped his hands.

Because the designated person must be a citizen of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom, and the people of the Great Zhou had already renounced their citizenship after falling out with the Purple God Prefecture. Even Liu Liu Tianning and Xia Jing were not people of the Yuanhai Ancient Kingdom.

He couldn't designate Du Yun, as the other party wouldn't accept such karma. Huazi and Le Yao were also not suitable. After thinking about it, only Lu Yuehan was suitable.

After Lu Yuehan chatted with Zhao Xing, she conveniently arranged this matter, because this would make King Tianji's people consider this layer of relationship with the Yutan Hou Fu when arranging positions.

"The token and the Dharma robe are here." Lei Yunde threw a ring to Zhao Xing: "You can go to the 18th 'Yunxiao Hall' and wait for orders."

"Thank you, Lord." Zhao Xing took the Qiankun ring, cupped his hands, and retreated.

Yunxiao Hall is the Si Nong military hall of the Tian Shi School. The 18th Yunxiao Hall has a total of one thousand people, all of whom are Second Realm Si Nong.

These one thousand people are all Zhao Xing's subordinates, coming from the Yunxiao Army, one of the nine major legions under King Tianji.

"My military Marquis above is named 'Hu Rui', a Si Nong of the Di Li School. According to the data, Hu Rui is a Great Divine Ability Realm cultivator."

"Military mobilization is not under his control; it is another Great Divine Ability Realm military Marquis, 'Shen Chen', who is in charge of the Nanhe Army and the Youxu Army."

Zhao Xing doesn't need to set off now; he has to wait for Shen Chen's Nanhe Army and Youxu Army to go and clear out the other forces on Naluo No. 21 before he can go.

"My mission is to lead the Yunxiao Hall to cooperate with the mechanism masters to build a small supply base on Naluo No. 21."

"Two hundred years is a deadline, and the remuneration is also settled every two hundred years. If the mission is completed, one can obtain a remuneration of 20 billion Yuanhai coins."

20 billion in two hundred years, averaging one hundred million Yuanhai coins every ten years, and the degree of danger is not high. For a Third Realm Si Nong, it is already quite good.

However, when Zhao Xing first came to open the tomb, he earned nearly 20 billion Yuanhai coins in two hundred years. This bit of remuneration is just pocket money for him now.

In the year 1148 of the Shixin era, Zhao Xing's Giant Yang clone was still waiting on Starfire's side, but his true self on King Tianji's side had already set off.

Shen Chen escorted a boundary boat and took a large group of people along a stable void route, flying for about a year, and arrived at the Naluo No. 21 Star Continent group.

Before they even landed on the star continent, Zhao Xing heard many people discussing.

"So many boundary boat wrecks, how many people died?"

"Look at this scale, at least over one million Origin Realm cultivators. There are boundary boat wrecks from the Yanyue Ancient Kingdom and the demon race."

"Chaotic, too chaotic. The chaos index exceeds 200. Everywhere there are void turbulence and void winds, as well as Taiyin heavenly thunder raging... The difficulty for us to repair is very high."

"That Taiyin star has also become incomplete. Could it be that a part of it was knocked off?"

"Hiss, it's really like this. I've been looking at it; it can't return to a full moon state." "Can the mission be completed in two hundred years? Why do I feel it's enough?"

"You think this money is easy to earn? Hmph, if the chaos index around Naluo No. 21 Star Continent is not reduced within the specified time, we only have the basic hard-earned money."

"Is this new Marquis of Wuling reliable? I haven't heard of him. And he didn't say a word when he came to the 18th Yunxiao Hall."

"I think he's reliable. Coldness is a symbol of experts among the Tian Shi School Si Nong. This kind of person is generally very capable."

"That's not necessarily true. I heard he relied on connections to become the Si Nong commander of the 18th Yunxiao Hall."

"Shh, don't talk anymore, he's coming out."

"..."

Zhao Xing looked at the one thousand Si Nong in the square.

He didn't say anything more, just said flatly: "The first mission Hu Rui gave is to reduce the chaos index around this star continent under our feet."

"You are all Second Realm cultivators. It is a bit difficult to deal with these void turbulence, void winds, and Taiyin heavenly thunder. So you must act in groups of ten."

Zhao Xing pointed, and one thousand tokens flew out from his body: "I have regrouped you according to the abilities stated in your data. The one who gets No. 1 is the team leader and has extra bonuses."

Please... you... collect_()

"The team leader quota is changed every thirty years; the capable go up and the weak go down."

"A total of one hundred groups, implementing a last-place elimination system..."

"..."

Zhao Xing was stating his rules.

There was a burst of discussion below. They didn't expect that they would have to be so involved under Zhao Xing.

Eliminating a batch of people every thirty years? Being so eager for quick success and instant benefit, he simply didn't treat people as people.

They had another impression of this superior: cruel.

"Now, follow me off the boat."

Zhao Xing knew they had no room to resist. The army is not a place that emphasizes freedom of coming and going, at least not something these Second Realm Si Nong can talk about.

Zhao Xing's order is the iron law, and they only have the part of obeying.

Not obey? Shen Chen's law enforcement team is not a joke.

After getting off the boat, Zhao Xing ordered the one thousand Yunxiao Si Nong to wait in place, while he went to listen to Hu Rui's arrangements.

"Listen well, eighteen Si Nong commanders, each responsible for one area, and everyone's area is the same!" Hu Rui shouted: "Every fifty years, I will evaluate your work. If anyone falls into the last three, they will be demoted to team leader, and their bonus will be halved."

"I have nothing else here, but there are many Si Nong. There are many Third Realm cultivators outside, and I don't know how many people are waiting to fill your positions."

"If you don't work hard, then wait to be replaced by others!"

Zhao Xing couldn't help but be speechless. He had just set rules for others, and in the blink of an eye, he was set the same rules by Hu Rui.

Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp; they are all using people to death.

After explaining the mission, Zhao Xing intended to start the mission immediately, but was stopped by Hu Rui again.

"Zhao Xing."

"Subordinate is here." Zhao Xing flew up again.

"Miss Lu entrusted me to take care of you." Hu Rui smiled: "You go to the East Continent to do things. The war there is less, and the chaos index is relatively lower."

"Thank you, Lord Hu." Zhao Xing cupped his hands, and a bag of Seven Star Ancient Coins turned into a ray of light and drilled into Hu Rui's sleeve.

Hu Rui shook his sleeve, his smile even more kind: "You're welcome. If you have anything later, just tell me."

"Thank you, Lord." Zhao Xing cupped his hands again, and only then did he start to act.

In the universe, it is most difficult for Tian Shi School Si Nong to govern a star continent, because it does not have the natural boundary wall protection like a small world or a boundary star.

This star continent that Zhao Xing and others descended on was named Hu Rui Star Continent.

After arriving at the East Continent, he looked at the coordinates on the panel and found that it deviated from the position he wanted to go by about 0.3 star sectors.

"0.3 star sectors, then it's not on this star continent." Zhao Xing looked at the star map, "I have to fly past two star continents toward the Tiangou position."

"With the Taiyin star as the origin, the place I want to go is about the 12943rd star continent away from the Taiyin star."

"The star continent I am on is 12940."

"I have to speed up the progress of the work, complete the mission in advance, so that I can have time to sneak out." Zhao Xing thought to himself.

Zhao Xing worked hard, and the Si Nong below suffered.

From the first day of descending on Hu Rui Star Continent, Zhao Xing and the one thousand Si Nong under his command had not rested again.

Other Si Nong commanders calculated progress by the year, while Zhao Xing calculated by the month.

The people below had no way to say anything.

Because Zhao Xing himself was not idle, he was either casting spells or on the way to casting spells every day.

One after another, void turbulence was smoothed out, and one after another, void winds were defeated... In just three years, more than half of the Taiyin thunder and chaotic spirit clouds covering the East Continent had dispersed.

The incomplete Taiyin star shone on Hu Rui Star Continent, breaking the darkness.

This team of Zhao Xing was the first to make the eastern part of Hu Rui Star Continent see the light, no longer pitch black.

"Lord, let's rest." A Si Nong took advantage of the results and immediately suggested to Zhao Xing to rest.

"Good, everyone is tired too. Let's rest for two days." Zhao Xing said.

"Thank you, Lord!" The Si Nong who made the suggestion almost shed tears.

Resting for two days in three years, is this something a human does?

But at this moment, he felt grateful and lucky, and had to thank Zhao Xing for his grace.

"Plop~" "Plop~" "Plop~"

Most of the Si Nong lay down on the spot and fell asleep.

It is conceivable how tired they were.

"Sigh, these Si Nong are still too weak." Zhao Xing sighed in his heart, "If they were Si Nong from the Ancient Hill or the Red Star Empire, they wouldn't have shouted tired for at least a hundred years of continuous high-intensity spell casting."

"Si Nong who haven't undergone extreme spell casting training are really too different." Zhao Xing thought to himself.

The length of time one can persist in casting spells at the highest intensity is an important indicator for measuring elite troops and ordinary troops.

Being exhausted in three years, these Second Realm Si Nong are obviously not true elites.

"Forget it, can't force it." Zhao Xing still didn't rest; he continued to cast spells, dispersing the chaotic spirit clouds in the starry sky above his head.

"Boom~ Boom~ Boom~"

The chaotic spirit clouds in the starry sky constantly condensed into meteorites and heavy water spheres, as well as thunder spheres falling down and smashing on the ground.

However, with Zhao Xing's spell casting, the speed at which these chaotic spirit clouds condensed became slower and slower, and the range became smaller and smaller.

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it reached seven years later, which was the year 1153 of the Shixin era.

Zhao Xing's true self was still working on Hu Rui Star Continent, but the star shifting array on the Giant Yang clone side began its last transformation.

"Hum~"

Zhao Xing watched the stars above his head twist into rays of light, and finally his eyes blurred.

The stars above his head disappeared, replaced by a terrifying chaotic spirit thunder cloud.

The terrifying pressure made Zhao Xing feel a jolt, and he immediately realized that his clone had appeared in an ancient tomb.

He immediately supported an air shield to protect Jing Yan and Yu Tianqing. This was an instinctive reaction honed through thousands of trials—when entering a strange place, one must first protect the mage teammates.

Bai Yang looked at Zhao Xing and nodded slightly: "You are quite good."

The star shifting array has slight side effects, making the soul, golden body, or Dao body run unsmoothly.

Zhao Xing was one of the three people who reacted the fastest. On the other two light pillars, a woman in red and a man in a blue cloak reacted similarly to Zhao Xing.

And among these three people, only Zhao Xing supported a defensive shield to protect his teammates.

Bai Yang praised him, then waved his hand, and a pure white spiritual power dispelled everyone's discomfort.

"Everyone, we have arrived inside the ancient tomb."

"This is a 【Biography Realm】."

"Three Great Divine Ability Realm cultivators of Starfire have all entered the Biography Realm."

"A Dao Domain Realm Biography Realm?" The woman in red's pupils shrank. What Bai Yang said was shocking enough.

Currently, only seven Dao Domain Realm tomb burials have been discovered in the Illusion God Star System. They actually entered one! And entered it silently!

"Red Peach Fairy, do you have any questions?" Bai Yang asked.

"No." Red Peach Fairy shook her head.

"I have." The sturdy man in a blue cloak named "Lan Hai" raised a question. "Lord, you said this is a 【Biography Realm】. Are you saying that a Dao Domain Realm Starry Sky Shi Guan is buried here?"

"Mm." Bai Yang nodded flatly, "The 'Biography' in Biography Realm is the same as the 'Biography' in Biographies."

"The tomb of a Starry Sky Shi Guan is different from others. Their tombs are equivalent to inheritances. Some historical secrets, they didn't know at the time, and it was impossible to disclose them, only to be passed down many years after their death."

"So you don't have to worry about danger. Either we can't get in, or if we get in, the danger coefficient will be greatly reduced. Because the tomb owner instead hopes to see what he wrote down excavated."

Hearing Bai Yang say this, the people in the team settled down a bit.

Before coming, they hadn't been told the mission location and content. They had thought it would be a Dao Domain Realm tomb, but that was just a guess about those normal professions.

They didn't expect it to be a niche tomb.

People who don't know the industry will feel it is very dangerous, because they don't understand that profession enough.

Now that Bai Yang said the danger would instead be lower, they weren't so afraid.

Only Zhao Xing was instead more uneasy.

Bai Yang was not wrong, but not entirely right.

"Biography Realm represents that the tomb owner cultivated 【Biographies】, recording the deeds of ministers."

"Righteous deeds can be recorded in biographies, and most of what can be said has long been passed down to the world."

"This place is filled with chaotic spirit thunder clouds and is gloomy."

"What is buried here are probably the 'Strange Biographies' or 'Dark Biographies' that cannot be told."

"Starfire probably has a premeditated plan to find certain things." Zhao Xing thought to himself. "What could it be?"

"Could it be trying to supplement the 【Emperor Dharma Image】 in the Epoch through 【Biographies】?"

Biographies record the conversations between ministers and emperors, and even seeing the appearance of emperors in ancient times is a great benefit to historians who cultivate 【Epoch】.

The more realistic the historical figures supplemented, the stronger their spells, and the stronger the 【Battle Spirits】 summoned from the long river of history.

"Or is it finding some forbidden arts? Forbidden artifacts from the Dark Biographies?"

Forbidden arts are spells or martial skills that are more powerful than great divine abilities and are forbidden from being cultivated because they are too powerful.

The Samsara Divine Temple possesses a complete resurrection ritual method, which is also a forbidden art.

Since it is a forbidden art, it is impossible for it to be passed down all over the world.

It is said that a long time ago, those powerful resurrection spells were not forbidden.

Because they were not afraid of death, the wars between various powerful forces would never end.

Dao wars were very bloody and dark. Anything recorded would affect the practitioner's mind, so history was deleted.

In addition, under the endless destruction of war, the environment of the Xuanling Star Domain collapsed rapidly, so those resurrection spells were also sealed.

"Let's look at the coordinates first." Zhao Xing lowered his head slightly and took a look at the panel.

【Taiyang 4, Jueyin 32, South Heavenly Gate 21, Heavenly Kitchen 7; Dark Realm Wutu 42.】

"Taiyang four? A sun star in the Illusion God Star System not manufactured by humans? Jueyin appeared. The larger the number, the stronger the power of the Taiyang origin. Could this be in the Imperial Tomb area?"

"Hiss, Dark Realm 42? Starfire brought us here?!"

Zhao Xing felt somewhat shocked in his heart.

After the Dark Realm coordinates appeared on the panel, Zhao Xing felt a jolt in his heart.

Because a page of 【Xuanling History Book · Residual Chapter】 was hidden here, and it was a page with a very high ranking.

"Xuanling History Book · Residual Chapter, according to theory, there are countless pages, because it generates one page every ten epochs."

"It records the history of all forces at the ancient kingdom level and above in the Xuanling Star Domain."

"There are also changes in important areas within the star domain, such as the Wasteland, or the rise and fall of certain dead stars or top-level origin stars."

"I remember that the residual chapter hidden in the Yueluo Mausoleum was finally taken away by the Origin Heavenly Palace in my previous life. Could it be that the facts are not so? Was it taken away by the Red Star Empire?"

"But I have seen that page in the Origin Heavenly Palace..." Zhao Xing subconsciously frowned.

Bai Yang captured Zhao Xing's micro-expression and couldn't help but ask: "Zhao Xing, Jing Yan, do you have any questions?"

"I have no questions." Jing Yan was somewhat excited: "I haven't opened a historian's tomb yet. Haha, the archaeologist is being excavated; this is truly interesting."

"I have a question." Zhao Xing looked at the gloomy surrounding environment: "How do we get out?"

Hearing Zhao Xing say this, everyone was startled, and they found that the light pillar under their feet had long since disappeared, without a trace of the array.

"As far as I know, the Star Shifting and Pulse Fixing Array of the Ancient Hill can only be used once; we cannot replace the earth vein in the same place a second time." Zhao Xing had cultivated the Di Li School in the Ancient Hill in his previous life, so he naturally knew it clearly.

"Good question." Bai Yang nodded, "We won't go back through the same method, but will go out through the settings left by the tomb owner."

"Still remember what I said just now? The tomb owner hopes that what he left behind will see the light of day again."

"Zhao Xing, do you have any more questions?"

"No more." Zhao Xing shook his head. He hadn't been here before; he had only heard of it in his previous life.

Dark Realm 42, this place was not allowed to be visited even later, and it was guarded by people from the Origin Heavenly Palace, which was said to be to prevent 【Ten Tables leakage】, causing confusion in people's historical memories.

"Let's go." Bai Yang took out a Star Dragon Plate, seemingly positioning, and the crown belt on his head emitted bursts of starlight, covering everyone in the team.

The oppressive feeling of the chaotic spirit thunder clouds in the sky disappeared instantly. It was obvious that Bai Yang's head crown was a Taiyin Dao soldier.

"Jing Yan." Zhao Xing transmitted his voice: "You must be careful. The historian's dark tomb is not as safe as Bai Yang said."

Zhao Xing told Jing Yan about the difference between the Dark and Strange Biography Realms.

"How dangerous is it?" Jing Yan asked.

"It's possible that after you go out, you will no longer be Jing Yan."

"You will think you are a minister of the Yueluo Ancient Kingdom, and you might even think you are the Lord of the Yueluo Kingdom... because your soul memories will be chaotic and confused."

"Damn! Is it that exaggerated?" Jing Yan cursed: "I've been taken for a big ride by this dog Bai Yang!"

Bai Yang invited him to make a fortune, and Jing Yan had thought it was an easy job.

"No, he didn't lie to you either." Zhao Xing looked at Bai Yang's back, "No matter what happens next, don't leave the side of Bai Yang's ancient crown. This Taiyin Dao soldier is the 【Taishi Crown】. As long as you listen to commands and follow him, the Taishi Crown can keep you maintaining your own memories."

Jing Yan blinked, signaling that he understood.

Taishi Crown, also called Taishi Crown, means it can only be worn by a Taishi official.

Such treasures can no longer be made now, because that group of troublemaking ancient historians a long time ago were also highly destructive war elements.

Without the protection of the Taishi Crown, there is no way for historians to confuse history and subvert an ancient kingdom at a huge price.

Before this, what did ancient historians do? A Taishi official ran to another country, picked up a pen to tamper with history, and then... the country changed its surname, the vassals rebelled, and the Lord of the Kingdom stepped down!

Because since ancient times, the monarch of the enemy country was their monarch, and the current Lord of the Kingdom was just a rebel!

"Zhuo En's will divine ability is truly going to help a lot." Zhao Xing thought to himself, "Only will divine ability can resist such chaos."

Given the situation of the Giant Yang clone, Zhao Xing's true self also rarely rested, but his subordinates still had to be involved.

Zhao Xing's true self did not occupy mental energy, so the will of the Giant Yang clone was more concentrated.

Bai Yang led thirty people to fly in a certain direction. After flying for about two months, he finally saw traces of human activity in this small world.

A city wall appeared in front of them. The city wall was gray and dark as a whole. It seemed infinitely high, holding up the boundary wall of the sky.

It was infinitely long to the left and right. Even at a distance of one hundred million kilometers, it was still a city wall, as if it could not see the end at all.

Bai Yang led people to land in front of the city pass.

"Clatter~"

The turbid river water in front of the city surged, and the faint origin fluctuation quickly attracted everyone's attention.

What was surprising was that the river surface did not reflect their own appearance, but the faces of a group of strangers.

"Killing Thought Blade, slash, slash, slash!" Zhao Xing felt something was wrong and immediately cut off the illusion in front of him, coming back to his senses.

"Don't look." Zhao Xing immediately shouted and transmitted his voice, stopping Jing Yan.

Jing Yan's expression changed, and he looked up abruptly. In his eyes, a general with a sturdy body and wearing silver armor was disappearing rapidly.

The rest of the people were affected to varying degrees. Two Small Divine Ability Realm martial artists even changed into a set of armor for themselves, subconsciously adjusting their facial muscles, becoming consistent with the reflection in the river.

"Hum~" The Taishi Crown on Bai Yang's head trembled, and everyone suddenly recovered their sobriety.

"Don't look down." Bai Yang exhorted. "It will kill people."

"What is this?" Red Peach Fairy's face was pale. She had actually been touching her stomach just now; this was too strange.

"Using history as a mirror can know the rise and fall; using copper as a mirror can correct clothes and hats."

"This is a large category of spells in the Ten Tables, 'Copper History Method', the divine ability of going against the current."

"Time is like a river, the strong leave shadows. You were affected by the Dao body of the strong who once stayed here."

"Just looking at it has such great power." Lan Hai sighed: "I once heard that the Dao body of a Life-Death Dao Domain Realm cultivator is perfect and flawless. Just one glance, and the Dao rhyme on the body will make people subconsciously imitate and learn."

"If you don't get rid of it in time, you will involuntarily try to adjust your Dao body, and finally go crazy and destroy yourself."

"So don't look down." Bai Yang smiled lightly: "Listen to commands, and it will be fine."

After this encounter, some people stared straight ahead, only staring at Bai Yang's ancient crown, and some simply closed their eyes, relying on the flow of the wind to fly and follow.

Passing this moat took a full ten days.

"Land, still don't look down."

Bai Yang's voice entered his mind.

Zhao Xing also landed as instructed, finding that what he stepped on didn't seem to be soil, but seemed to step on a stack of paper.

Immediately after, Zhao Xing saw Bai Yang come to that huge city gate. He didn't know what he did, and then his figure suddenly became tall.

An umbrella cover appeared behind him, and a strange beast that looked like a horse and a tiger, emitting flames, appeared under his crotch.

"The city gate is about to open. Next, you must resist the voices in your ears. Those who cannot bear it, don't let your eyes leave my crown belt, and don't leave the ten-thousand-meter range."

Bai Yang's words had just finished when a rumbling sound was heard, and the mechanism seemed to be activated.

The city wall cracked into several layers, and a main road appeared in front.

At the same time, a voice came.

"... Grand Tutor 'Ruan Chang', expedition to Guihai, triumphant return to the court~"

Zhao Xing felt this voice was ethereal, and a scene seemed to appear in front of him. The Bai Yang in front became a triumphant commander, and he became a personal guard beside him.

It's just that this guard was strange in shape and tall in stature, and if he didn't become like that, it seemed disrespectful, and there was a subconscious etiquette constraint, seemingly letting him also become so tall.

"Swish, swish, swish~" Above the passage into the city, there were rows of sharp spikes, seemingly quenched with dark poison.

Zhao Xing endured the discomfort and remained calm, but found that Jing Yan was fine.

"You, how did you do it?"

"What do you mean how did I do it." Jing Yan stared straight ahead.

"You didn't hear that voice?"

"I heard it."

"Then how are you..."

"I don't understand." Jing Yan said, "I don't know what it's saying at all, just feel it's a bit soft and annoying."

"..."

Zhao Xing looked at the others, and several martial artists were also not much affected, obviously also not understanding the language of the Yueluo Ancient Kingdom.

Master Zhao felt for the first time that learning too much was not a good thing.

Actually suffered the loss of being too cultured!

"If you don't understand its meaning, you won't move its spirit. The literary Dao rhyme of the Ten Tables can't do anything to the illiterate." Zhao Xing muttered in his heart and followed closely.

Bai Yang's speed was very fast, and he ignored all the strange scenes, mechanism traps, or hidden weapons in the city.

Zhao Xing could now be sure that Starfire had definitely calculated this place long ago in these seven thousand years.

Or they had accidentally discovered a clue, and then spent thousands of years expanding and perfecting the deduction along the clue.

After passing the passage, it was a main road. The quiet environment suddenly became noisy.

Pedestrians were like rain on the road, and fairies were flying with baskets in the sky.

"Neigh~"

Various strange beasts drove carriages past in the sky, and there seemed to be hawking and singing and dancing around.

"The latest Taiyin Dao soldier from the Yueluo Ancient Kingdom, only 200,000 Seven Star Ancient Coins!"

"The Jade Dragon Fairy of the Heavenly Sound Tower is opening the pavilion today. She is a natural Myriad Law Dao Body. One year of harmony can increase cultivation by 1 epoch. The highest bidder gets it~"

"Get lost, you blind thing, don't block the Grand Tutor's way!"

"..."

Realistic, too realistic!

Zhao Xing, Jing Yan, Lan Hai, Red Peach Fairy, and others could all sense that these characters were real, their auras were real, and even the Dao soldiers placed outside were real.

All of this made people want to check it out.

Zhao Xing was miserable because of this information; he could understand it completely, which had a particularly great impact on him.

Instead, it was Jing Yan, this uncultured fellow from the Empire, who had been honestly staring at the ancient crown.

"Slash the flesh with a knife, slash the soul with the heart, will is the only thing, kill all living things!" Zhao Xing recited the spell silently in his heart.

At this moment, he indiscrimin

"The blade slashes the flesh, the heart slashes the soul; the will is singular, slaughtering all living things!" Zhao Xing silently recited the mantra in his heart.

At this moment, he viewed all illusions with indiscriminate hostility, using his killing intent to suppress every thought.

Gradually, these voices grew weaker.

"We are almost at our destination," Bai Yang's voice came. "Those who cannot hold on may rest at the Time Posthouse ahead."

"I will leave a spell there to keep you awake."

"Leave us behind?" Lan Hai asked, puzzled. "What is the point of Lord Bai Yang bringing us here?"

"I naturally have times when I find you useful," Bai Yang said indifferently. "Even those left behind on this road serve a purpose for me."

Zhao Xing understood what Bai Yang was saying.

Because from the moment they began approaching the palace ahead, Bai Yang had left one person behind at every interval.

"I fear even the Grand Beginning Crown cannot suppress the place he is going; Bai Yang is using us as memory anchors."

"Should I follow him?" Zhao Xing wondered to himself.

Now, only four people remained by Bai Yang's side: himself, Jing Yan, Fairy Hongtao, and Lan Hai.

The magnificent palace, looking like an imperial residence, was right before his eyes. Zhao Xing was thinking about whether he should speak up and say he could no longer hold on.

After guessing Bai Yang's intent, he realized this person did not need anyone's help to fight at all.

"Jing Yan, you stay here; you are about to reach your limit." Bai Yang dropped three ancient coins, then placed a crown upon Jing Yan's head.

"Do not leave the triangular area of the ancient coins."

"Yes." Jing Yan sat cross-legged and closed his eyes.

After traveling some distance, Fairy Hongtao and Lan Hai were also left behind one by one.

At this point, Bai Yang seemed to be using people as markers; every time he reached a place, he would leave someone behind.

By the time they reached the front of the palace, only Bai Yang and Zhao Xing remained.

"Lord Bai Yang, I can no longer hold on either," Zhao Xing said, his voice trembling.

Bai Yang paused, then nodded slightly and tossed a set of ancient headgear to Zhao Xing.

Afterward, he threw three more ancient coins backward, locking down an area.

"Put it on, and do not move."

Bai Yang's words seemed to be growing fewer as well. Zhao Xing obediently put on the ancient headgear, and a cool sensation spread throughout his entire body, nourishing his soul.

"At the palace gates, the Grand Tutor must dismount!"

The palace guards blocked Bai Yang, who was riding a horse.

The exotic beast mount Bai Yang was riding suddenly vanished.

Afterward, he entered the palace.

Zhao Xing could not help but take a glance, only to see Bai Yang enveloped by the dark palace gates, disappearing completely.

Those palace gates looked like the gaping maw of a giant beast, and also like an abyss, bottomless and unfathomable.

Zhao Xing hurriedly focused his mind, silently reciting the mantra, and stopped letting his thoughts wander.

He did not know how much time had passed when the sound of the palace gates opening emerged once more.

Then, a set of footsteps slowly approached and stopped in front of Zhao Xing.

"Zhao Xing, let's go."

It was Bai Yang who spoke, and he was still wearing that Grand Shi Guan's crown.

He looked no different than before.

Yet, Zhao Xing's heart was in his throat.

Because he had used the panel's detection function to look at Bai Yang again.

The information displayed was as follows:

【Name: Yang Baihe/Ruan Chang】

【Profession:???】

【Realm: Great Divine Ability Realm/Life and Death Dao Domain Realm (Abnormal)】

"It's over!" Zhao Xing's heart skipped a beat.

(End of chapter)
