Chapter 430: Time Dream Return Technique and Qi Luck Golden Core! Qing Yuzi reappears!
"What spell did Brother Ji create?" Liu Tianning and Yun Tiandao both cast curious gazes.
"I named it 【Time Dream Return Technique】." Ji Si said.
"Time Dream Return Technique?" Liu Tianning and Yun Tiandao savored the meaning, "I wonder what kind of effect it has?"
The Martial Emperor immediately said: "Ji Si, why not demonstrate it to them."
"Okay." Ji Si straightened up, then reached out and invited: "Taihe King, Brother Yun, Great Agriculture Minister, please sleep, be natural."
Zhao Xing, Liu Tianning, and Yun Tiandao immediately followed suit.
At their current realm, sleeping was no longer a necessity, just sleeping occasionally would be more relaxing.
Sleeping and entering dreams could be actively controlled.
The three closed their eyes and slept soundly, then Ji Si also closed his eyes.
One thousand five hundred years ago, demon race territory.
Yun Tiandao stood on the Nine-Curved Heavenly Ladder leading to the demon domain, the stone steps covered in frost that hadn't melted for ten thousand years.
This temporary camp pass was built against the boundary mountain, the main body of the pass was cast with meteorite iron, and the surface was covered with bronze reliefs of suppression runes.
The stars above twinkled, but the Heavenly Dipper Big Dipper Array was not brought. It gave Yun Tiandao a sense of security.
Because a lunar eclipse was happening, the demon army's reinforcements were on their way, and there wasn't much time left for him.
He had been fighting for a hundred years, and now it was the fifth large-scale attack, but could he really rush in and save his lover and the Xia Emperor?
Yun Tiandao's gaze was firm; he went down the stone steps and began to patrol the military camp.
Soldiers used talisman water to wipe their arrows, battle flags rolled in the gale, the ashes of burning talismans formed warning totems in the air, the red moon was in the sky, the sea of clouds rolled like boiling water, and plants grew in reverse.
When the wind swept across the bronze arrow tower of the Nanyuan Demon-Suppressing Pass, it carried a whistling sound like a blade scraping bone.
Thirty-six black battle flags rolled on the city wall, the demon-suppressing talismans drawn in cinnabar on the flags were igniting with ghostly blue flames, and the ashes fell on the soldiers' shoulder armor, congealing into tiny blood-colored frost flowers.
"General, it's time to rest, your injuries haven't fully healed." The old physician flew over with a medicine box on his back.
"The demon race has already crossed the seventh ice barrier, I cannot rest." Yun Tiandao shook his head.
"You must rest and receive treatment." The old physician insisted: "Otherwise I won't be able to explain it."
"Alright." Yun Tiandao followed the old physician into the marching hall and then lay down.
The old physician began to insert needles for Yun Tiandao. Silver needles pierced into his head, and Yun Tiandao began to enter a dream.
In the dream, he, Zhao Xing, Liu Tianning, Ji Si, and Ji Che gathered in a quiet room.
"Brother Yun, after waking up, please repeat my actions." Ji Si suddenly said.
"Ji Si? How could I dream of you? Where is this..."
The dream began to shatter.
One thousand eight hundred years ago, Shenhua Dao Academy, the training ground of Lord Qianhua.
"Liu Tianning, you're crazy, the ninth layer of the Demon Heart Cave is for Dao Domain Realm experts to practice in, are you going to die?!"
"Thank you, senior brother, for your advice, but I believe I can do it." Liu Tianning's gaze was firm, and he strode into the cave.
Inner demons, dreams...
Liu Tianning lay quietly in the dark cave, accepting the test of the Demon Heart Cave.
He, Zhao Xing, Yun Tiandao, Ji Si, and Ji Che gathered in a quiet room.
"Taihe King, after waking up, please repeat my actions."
"Ji Si? The Demon Heart Cave is realistic enough..." Liu Tianning snorted coldly.
Jia-Chen Pass, inside the cloud pavilion.
Ji Si suddenly opened his eyes, and at the same time, Liu Tianning and Yun Tiandao also opened their eyes together.
Ji Si first looked at Zhao Xing, then looked at Yun Tiandao and Liu Tianning: "Two, please recall carefully, have I ever appeared in your dreams."
Yun Tiandao and Liu Tianning's eyes flashed with surprise, then they nodded in unison.
"Do you remember what I said?"
"Remember."
Ji Si stopped talking and made an inviting gesture.
Then Yun Tiandao and Liu Tianning both drew a blood mark on their thumbs.
Their actions were exactly the same!
"This is the Time Dream Return Technique." Ji Si said: "I had a conversation with you from many years ago through dreams."
"What?"
"Is it true or false."
"It is indeed so." Liu Tianning thought intently, "I suddenly remembered seeing Lord Ji in the demon cave."
"I can be sure this is not a mental attack or an illusion, but something that actually happened."
"I am also sure." Yun Tiandao felt it was incredible: "It was actually at the moment of treatment on the eve of my attack on the demon pass...
This, how many years have passed? Truly miraculous!"
"Wait, why hasn't Zhao Xing woken up yet?" Liu Tianning looked at Zhao Xing, who was still closing his eyes.
Ji Si said helplessly: "I don't know why, I can't trace any dream Zhao Xing has ever had. So, I can't establish any connection with him. It seems my divine ability still has shortcomings."
"I'm awake." Zhao Xing suddenly opened his eyes too. "I also had a dream, Ji Si, this is not your problem."
In Zhao Xing's dream.
Clouds swirled, golden light was brilliant.
The light condensed into a stone platform and two long benches.
A figure walked out of the clouds. After seeing clearly, Zhao Xing was somewhat stunned: "Tea, Teacher?!"
The person who came was Qing Yuzi!
"Sit." Qing Yuzi, or rather, the Qing Yu God, reached out and let Zhao Xing sit down.
"Yes." Zhao Xing sat down obediently.
"Teacher, why did you appear in my dream?"
"If you could be more settled, I wouldn't have appeared suddenly." Qing Yuzi snorted.
"I'm not settled?" Zhao Xing was stunned, "I don't know where to start."
"You transferred the Ancient Physician Tian Chen, Ling Yuan Emperor, and others to the Siyue Desolate Domain, what big thing are you trying to do again?" Qing Yuzi said.
"..." Zhao Xing couldn't help but be speechless. He suspected Old Qing had installed surveillance on him. Otherwise, how did he know about this?
"Don't doubt that I'm monitoring you, I don't have that much free time." Qing Yuzi said: "I discovered his movements were related to you by monitoring the Ancient Physician Tian Chen."
Zhao Xing was stunned again. The Ancient Physician Tian Chen was actually being monitored by Qing Yuzi?
How did he get monitored by Qing Yuzi?
"Did you forget how I became a god?" Qing Yuzi said, "The Ancient Physician and the Ancient God clan have inextricable ties, not to mention that I am also a member of the Reincarnation Temple."
Zhao Xing suddenly realized. The Dongyan Ancient Clan resurrected an Ancient God, and Old Qing snatched the other party's power to become a god; they had an inextricable relationship.
If the Ancient Physician had a relationship with the Ancient God, then it made sense for Qing Yuzi, or the Reincarnation Temple, to monitor him.
"He is a madman." Qing Yuzi said, "I discovered that your cause and effect are already linked to him. If you are too close, you will be in danger of your life, and you won't even be able to be resurrected if you die."
Zhao Xing was shocked. In his impression, the Ancient Physician was definitely not a madman; he even had a very good reputation and had always been highly respected in the Xuanling Star Domain.
But Qing Yuzi gave a completely opposite evaluation.
"Okay, I understand." Zhao Xing nodded.
"Take it." Qing Yuzi pushed over a jade slip.
"This is?"
"The follow-up to the Three God Fate Palace, the Great Divine Ability stage of the 'Reincarnation' secret method."
Seeing Zhao Xing's strange expression, Qing Yuzi said angrily: "Don't think crookedly, the main function of the 'Reincarnation' Great Divine Ability is not to steal the Derivative God Tablet, but to prevent cause and effect from being bound."
"You have also mastered the Gu family's Taixu Grass Person, it won't work without a soul magic vehicle to control it."
Zhao Xing swore: "Disciple will definitely not do that kind of thing, and I don't have your ability, Master."
Qing Yuzi sneered: "You don't have the ability? Your ability is not small."
"I haven't seen you for only a few thousand years, and you not only passed the test of Taichu City and have cause and effect entanglement with Zuo Qiyu, but also formed a bond with the next person in power of the Academy City, and now you are mixed up with the Ancient Physician... what else do you want to do?"
"Oh right, you still want to return to the Xuanhuang world."
Zhao Xing's smile was awkward: "Nothing can be hidden from you."
Yes, Zhao Xing's meeting with the Great Zhou people at the Jia-Chen pass this time was to discuss returning to the Xuanhuang world.
Because times are different now, he has established a foothold in the Empire, and the development of the Siyue Desolate Domain has gathered a lot of attention, so it shouldn't be a problem for him to take time to return to his hometown in the Chenluo Desolate Domain.
Wang Tianzhi is still locked in the Era House! It's time to pick him up from 'prison'.
"Don't even think about the Xuanhuang trip." Qing Yuzi poured cold water on Zhao Xing.
"Master, dynasties that have ascended from the Xuanhuang world have always returned once. It's strange that I don't even think about returning once." Zhao Xing gave his logic.
"It's very dangerous, it's not something you can return to now." Qing Yuzi shook his head.
Zhao Xing even felt that there was a hint of fear in Old Qing's tone.
Even Old Qing is afraid? Truly evil! What exactly is in the Xuanhuang world?
"If I don't return, can I just bring a message back?" Zhao Xing retreated to the second best.
"I have a friend who developed a spell called 'Time Dream Return Technique'."
Qing Yuzi pondered for a moment: "I am not a Fate Master, nor a Star Historian, I can only say, you must grasp the degree."
"If you try once and it doesn't work, don't try a second time."
"Yes, I understand."
Ji Si's new spell can communicate with the past through dreams, which makes it possible to send a message to Wang Tianzhi.
If Ji Si was still very weak before and couldn't have much effect, now Ji Si can play a big role!
Ji Si, who is dual-cultivating Fate and History, faintly has the demeanor of a founder of a sect!
So after Zhao Xing broke away from the dream, he asked: "Lord Ji, how far can your spell effect trace back?"
Ji Si replied: "The situation is very complex. First, look at the cultivation gap between the spell recipient and the spell caster, second is whether there is a close intersection in history, and third is the spatial distance. The Dao of Time and Space is one body, inseparable. The farther the distance, the harder it is for me to succeed."
Yun Tiandao: "What about the price?"
Ji Si smiled: "Since the effect is undetermined, the price is also unknown. It may be very high, or it may be very low."
"For example, you just cut your thumbs, this is the anchor point I left behind, history echoes with the future, and the information I transmitted is negligible, so the price for me to cast this spell is very small."
Yun Tiandao looked curiously at his thumb: "Suppose Liu Tianning and I don't do it, what will happen?"
"I will suffer a backlash." Ji Si said.
"How does the price compare to the Time Letter?" Liu Tianning asked.
"The same." Ji Si said: "Just more secretive, and the effect is stronger."
"How can it be the same?" Liu Tianning didn't understand: "The past is fixed, but the future has infinite possibilities. Shouldn't influencing the past be more expensive than influencing the future?"
Ji Si said: "Because what just passed is the future that happened at the past time point, so theoretically what you said is not wrong. Only after dual-cultivating as a Star Historian do you understand that the price of modifying the past and predicting the future is actually the same."
Liu and Yun all showed confused expressions.
As the saying goes, different professions are like different mountains. When Ji Si started talking about the principles of Fate and History, they couldn't understand.
Zhao Xing could understand, because he had always been paying attention to Ji Si's growth, and he had even given some guidance on the conception of this spell.
Talking to here, Zhao Xing transmitted to the Martial Emperor and Ji Si:
"Lord Ji, Your Majesty, I have something to say."
"Just right." The Martial Emperor responded: "I also have something to say to Big Brother."
The subsequent gathering became four people, Liu Tianning was excluded.
Because the things that still exist in the Xuanhuang world are only known to four people: Yun Tiandao, Ji Che, Ji Si, and Zhao Xing.
Since Qing Yuzi said that he still couldn't return, there was no need to let Old Liu join in and increase the risk.
"What do you mean, still can't go home?" Yun Tiandao frowned, "Why."
He still wanted to take his Dao companion and the Xia Emperor back to the Xuanhuang world, which would be beneficial to restoring their memories.
But now Zhao Xing said he couldn't return.
Yun Tiandao didn't know the twists and turns at all, so he was very confused.
"Hard to say." Zhao Xing shook his head: "In short, this is the situation now. We have one chance. A chance to try to contact the Xuanhuang world. If this chance doesn't succeed, we can only continue to wait."
"Fine." Yun Tiandao could only dispel the idea of returning.
"Ji Si, it's up to you." Zhao Xing said.
"Understood." Ji Si nodded.
For the next month, Ji Si dug out old objects related to Wang Tianzhi and performed continuous spellcasting.
Zhao Xing carved a wooden statue of Qing Yuzi and placed it in the room as the patron saint for this spellcasting.
Since Old Qing agreed, he couldn't stand by.
Zhao Xing even felt that Qing Yuzi didn't enter the dream for his own safety, but came specifically for this matter.
A month later, Ji Si walked out of the room.
"How is it?" Zhao Xing asked.
"Not clear." Ji Si shook his head, "Whether Wang Tianzhi can receive the information depends on whether there is feedback later. This method is not suitable for real-time transmission, the effect is relatively slow, it just wins in stability."
"Perhaps in a year or two, he will receive it, or it may take hundreds or thousands of years."
Zhao Xing nodded.
Then the four people sealed and archived the memories of Wang Tianzhi. If they didn't encounter specific events, they wouldn't think of this matter.
"Hmm? What are we doing here?" The Martial Emperor frowned.
"What happened this month?" Yun Tiandao was also a bit confused.
Memory sealing is troublesome. If you forget everything you just talked about, you will think back to what you just did.
Fortunately, Ji Si and Zhao Xing were prepared for this operation. A playing card flew out of both of their bosoms, indicating that a memory seal had been performed just now.
"It seems that what Big Brother wanted to tell us has been done." Ji Che smiled, "Then I should also tell Big Brother about another matter."
The second gathering began, but this time it excluded Yun Tiandao and called Liu Tianning in.
Zhao Xing was puzzled by this, while Ji Si said:
"This is an internal matter of Great Zhou."
"Although Yun Tiandao is a fellow villager, he is unwilling to join Great Zhou, so it can only be left at that."
Ji Che said regretfully: "Originally there was some possibility, but now that he has found the Xia Emperor, it is even more impossible to join Great Zhou."
Zhao Xing asked: "What exactly does Your Majesty want to say, why must Yun Tiandao be excluded?"
He thought Yun Tiandao should be one of them, and doing this would chill Yun Tiandao's heart.
Ji Che didn't speak, just spread his palm, and something full of golden mist that looked like a pill appeared.
"Hmm? This is..." Zhao Xing and Liu Tianning took a look and both felt that they had formed some kind of connection with this golden pill.
"This is a Qi Luck Golden Core, which I condensed with the Qi Luck of Great Zhou." Ji Che said: "The Qi Luck power of this dynasty has four effects: one is to increase longevity, two is to inject luck, three is to protect the heavenly soul, and four is to improve the realm."
"After entering the Xuanling Star Domain, the system of the Qi Luck Dynasty fell into a bottleneck, and now there is a new breakthrough."
Zhao Xing noticed that at this time, Ji Si was in the Yin-Yang Dao Domain Realm, and Liu Tianning was in the Yin-Yang Dao Domain Realm.
But the Martial Emperor was already in the Life-Death Dao Domain Realm!
Ji Che spread his other hand, and a golden gate appeared, with coiled dragons, and civil and military officials stood in the hall.
Zhao Xing also saw the shadows of himself and Liu Tianning.
"Great Zhou has developed for over four thousand years. Although there have been disastrous defeats in the Star-Annihilation Corridor and some setbacks, we have still developed a lot of territory and population, and the number of powerhouses has been constantly increasing."
"When Big Brother entered the Primordial Realm back then, when we were exploring outside the domain, we also obtained quite a few Qi Luck treasures and related ancient books from many ruins."
"Among them, one piece is suspected to be an ancient object from the Five Emperors period, which contains some secrets of the Qi Luck Dao. Ji Si and I have studied it together for three thousand years, and finally broke the shackles of the original Qi Luck Divine Dynasty."
"Big Brother, Brother-in-law, this Qi Luck Golden Core is one of the results of studying the Qi Luck Dao."
"Anyone of you who takes it can choose two effects: Qi Luck will climb three levels, or break through to the next realm."
Zhao Xing and Liu Tianning were shocked.
Qi Luck climbs three levels, or can break through to the next realm?
"Your Majesty, is this true?" Liu Tianning couldn't believe it.
"Of course, if you don't believe it, you can choose one person to try." Ji Che smiled.
Zhao Xing cast his gaze on the golden hall in Ji Che's hand, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything, because the panel's detection function could only see living things and couldn't identify equipment.
"Your Majesty, what is the price of the condensed Qi Luck Golden Core?" Zhao Xing asked.
"It consumed thirty percent of Great Zhou's national fortune." Ji Che said in a deep voice:
"If the taker dies, it will cause serious consequences for Great Zhou. All citizens, including me, will have their cultivation stagnate, and they will become very unlucky."
"Death is equivalent to losing a part of the national fortune, if you don't die, it's fine."
Zhao Xing was a bit stunned. He didn't expect Ji Che to really walk down the path of Qi Luck Dynasty and make a breakthrough.
Bringing Great Zhou to ascend together in this life actually had such an effect.
"Truly unintentional planting of willows, just from the effect, the effect of the Qi Luck Golden Core is already stronger than a single Five Emperors Son Coin."
Zhao Xing recalled the effect of the Five Emperors Coin.
Holding one Five Emperors Coin, Qi Luck automatically increases by two levels, and gathering five can add ten levels.
And until the 30th derivative, the effect remains constant!
The 'Rui Emperor Coin' of the Five Emperors Coin starts at a trillion Red Star coins. However, this is only the 'Son Coin'. If it is the 'Mother Coin' that can add three levels, the price will be more expensive, and the price of a set is an astronomical figure.
Zhao Xing didn't have any Five Emperors Coins, only one Platinum Coin.
In the past, Zhao Xing was not interested in the path of Qi Luck becoming a god, nor did he pay much attention to it, but the development of Great Zhou was a bit beyond his expectations.
"Big Brother, who among you will take this Qi Luck Golden Core?" Ji Che asked.
"Give it to Teacher." Zhao Xing pondered: "My demand for breakthrough is not very large."
He was still improving his source limit, and two of the three school sources had not been filled.
"Give it to Zhao Xing." Liu Tianning also declined: "You can use it to add three levels of Qi Luck, don't use it to break through."
"Teacher, my Qi Luck is already not low." Zhao Xing said: "And I am a First-Rank Sea-Passage Envoy, a Coral-level member of the Primordial Realm, I don't need more good luck to resist the unknown risks during exploration."
In the early stages of exploration, Zhao Xing planned to mix some credit with the Hongshan Emperor and then cultivate. He wouldn't run around, so the risk factor was still very low.
Even if he had to run around, that would be sending the Taixu Grass Person out.
Liu Tianning was different. As the Lord of Qianhua of the Shenhua Dao Academy, he had no say in such big things in such a place.
There were many lords, the North River Lord was also a lord, but he couldn't even get a Third-Rank order, unless he went himself.
The two master and disciple pushed each other, and Ji Che was a bit helpless: "There must be a choice, I spent a lot of effort, you can't let me disperse it again."
Liu Tianning said domineeringly: "I am the teacher, you are the disciple, don't you even listen to the teacher's order? Zhao Xing, you take the Qi Luck Golden Core, I don't want to say it a second time!"
Zhao Xing didn't say a word, and immediately took out the Great Agriculture Minister's seal from his bosom: "Liu Tianning, listen to the order!"
A flash of surprise flashed in Liu Tianning's eyes: "You, you bastard, playing this trick on me?"
Zhao Xing smiled: "Although you are my benefactor, we are discussing state affairs now. I am the Great Agriculture Minister, you are just the Lesser Agriculture Order."
"Liu Tianning, listen to the order obediently!"
While speaking, Zhao Xing had already written the official document for the disposal of the Qi Luck Golden Core.
"Slap!"
Soon, the Great Agriculture Minister's seal fell.
Looking at Zhao Xing's dashing back, Liu Tianning was extremely annoyed!
If he had known, he shouldn't have abdicated!
"Truly a wicked disciple!"
The third meeting was two years and six months later.
The five people gathered again.
"The Empire's exploration action is mighty. The determination to develop the northwest Desolate Domain is far stronger than any previous time!"
"If the Siyue Desolate Domain can be opened up, it means walking out of the barren and poor low-spiritual energy area, and it is possible to discover a vast and rich new spiritual domain."
Zhao Xing stood in the hall, giving a passionate speech: "The Red Star Empire is powerful, but there are no more opportunities in the country. After many years of founding the country, its class solidification is already very serious."
"Cultivator families hold various profiteering businesses and territories. Whether it is an individual or a family, wanting to climb up again, the difficulty is no less than turning a Desolate Domain into a Spiritual Domain."
"Major ancient countries even control the spiritual energy index, and also divide the cultivation areas, strictly forbidding non-citizens from cultivating!"
"And exploring unknown territories is very likely to discover new source worlds, Emperor-level troops, and even legendary-level troops. There are also many precious non-renewable mineral resources, materials for creating Reincarnation Dao soldiers, and even natural divine objects... everything is possible."
"Forces that dare not participate or are indecisive are destined to be eliminated in the future."
"We must step out of our comfort zone and join this exploration to stand out in the short term!"
"... n the long run, the process of Desolate Domain-ization in the Xuanling Star Domain is unstoppable. The four Xuanling Dharma Assemblies before the Desolate Domain Era all prove one point: major super forces are extremely pessimistic about the future of the Xuanling Star Domain." Scholar Bowei was standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling mirror, speaking excitedly.
On the other side of the mirror stood a figure with a mutilated face, as if corroded; it was Bience from the Star-Annihilation Corridor.
"Various data indicate that the proportion of breaking through to the Reincarnation Realm is declining year by year."
"Geniuses haven't become fewer, Daoist inheritance hasn't been cut off, the development of various professional systems is even more prosperous, why is this? Because the Xuanling Star Domain has entered the period of extinction!"
"The northern part of the Spiritual Domain is getting colder and colder, some galaxies have already dropped to negative 308 degrees! Even the Snow Demon race, which is naturally cold-resistant, can't stand it and has started to migrate, forced to attack the human race."
"The Desolate Domain galaxy belt only had a length of 8. jian four eras ago, but now it has spread to 32. jian!?"
"And those omnipotent gods in the Xuanling Star Domain, what have they done?"
Facing the excited Bowei, Bience shook his head in a low voice: "I don't know, my lord, but I think it seems inappropriate to say these things in the 【Common Knowledge Mirror】. You know, I was expelled by Elder Zhixin back then, and the 【Common Knowledge Mirror】 is controlled by him..."
"They haven't done anything, just watching from high above." Bowei seemed to ignore Bience's words and continued to speak to himself.
Until Bience reminded him again, Bowei then said calmly: "Don't worry, I am the master of the Common Knowledge Mirror now."
"What?" Bience was stunned. "Could it be that you..."
"Yes, I am about to enter the eighth layer of the Scholar Realm." Bowei looked at the person in the mirror, "Bience, I have a great plan, are you interested in knowing?"
The clone was busy outside, but the true self in the Primordial Realm was very leisurely.
The departure date was still very generous. On this day, Zhao Xing and Ai Miaomiao took the Thousand-Star Vine and arrived in front of a row of ice-blue boundary stars.
"Junior brother, the Ice Star Prison is here, but why are we here?" Ai Miaomiao asked.
Zhao Xing remembered an old friend, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Come to visit the talent market."
While the clone was busy outside, the original body in the Primordial Realm was quite leisurely.
There was still plenty of time before the departure date. That day, Zhao Xing and Ai Miaomiao took the Thousand-Star Vine to a row of ice-blue boundary stars.
"Junior Brother, we've arrived at the Ice Star Prison, but why are we here?" Ai Miaomiao asked.
Zhao Xing thought of an old acquaintance, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "To browse the talent market."
End of Chapter
