Chapter 708

In the original work, a few months before the Mirage set sail, the Yin-Yang School had done one thing.

That was to secretly launch a conquest against Shushan together with Meng Tian's army.

In that battle, Shushan was destroyed, and many supreme treasures were lost one after another, including the divine tree Fusang, which the Shushan clan had served for generations. It is said that the Fusang divine tree is a portal connecting the three realms of gods, humans, and the netherworld. Of course, this is the legendary saying; whether it is true or false, no one knows. However, that Fusang tree in the original work is indeed quite magical.

It was transported from Shushan to the Mirage just like that and planted on the Mirage. For such a long time, not only did it not die, but it lived quite well.

At this moment, realizing that the most critical things were still missing in exploring the whereabouts of the treasure of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, Su Xuan thought of Shushan the first moment.

"So, in the end, is it still impossible to bypass Shushan?"

Su Xuan's eyes flickered, and he whispered to himself.

The entanglement between the Yin-Yang School and Shushan is deeper than imagined.

Five hundred years ago, a portion of the Daoist school rebelled and left, establishing themselves as the Yin-Yang School. At the beginning, these people encountered pursuit from the Daoist school and fled everywhere in the world, finally escaping to the Shu region.

At that time, the passage between the Qin Guo and the Shu region had not yet been opened. When the people of the Yin-Yang School fled to the Shu region, even the Daoist school did not know their whereabouts.

The Shu region, for the Central Plains, is extremely mysterious. Hidden there is a mysterious force that has been passed down for who knows how many years, named "Shushan." Shushan refers to both the mountains in the Shu region and the name of this mysterious tribe.

Since the ancient era, they have been rooted among the vast mountains, guarding certain secrets.

The people of the Yin-Yang School used certain methods to deceive them and gain their trust, managing to join the Shushan tribe. However, the so-called joining was only temporary. With their joining, a portion of the Shushan people began to develop a yearning for the outside world.

Finally, Shushan, like the Daoist school, experienced an internal rebellion.

A portion of the Shushan people followed the people of the Yin-Yang School and left Shushan, later arriving in the Central Plains.

This is also the reason why witchcraft exists among the many techniques of the Yin-Yang School; witchcraft originally came from the Shushan tribe.

It can be said that the Yin-Yang School is essentially a new sect born from the fusion of the strengths of two schools. Of course, in terms of origin, the Yin-Yang School is still closer to the Daoist school; it only integrated a portion of Shushan's witchcraft during the process of development and growth.

It is also because of this reason that the relationship between the Yin-Yang School and Shushan is not too good.

Because the Shushan force has always been hidden in the deep mountains and did not take the initiative to find trouble with the Yin-Yang School, and because the Yin-Yang School was in the wrong and was indeed weak in its early years, after fleeing Shushan, they did not dare to return, much less take the initiative to provoke the Shushan force.

Of course, that was back then; today is different from the past.

After Su Xuan took charge of the Yin-Yang School, the strength of the Yin-Yang School climbed rapidly. It can be said that if Su Xuan were willing, destroying the Daoist school on Mount Taiyi and replacing them would be an easy thing, but he did not do so.

By the same token, Shushan, having been self-secluded for many years and never communicating with the outside world, has long since fallen behind the times. For the current Yin-Yang School, it really doesn't count for much.

After knowing where to look for the final thing to find the treasure of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon, Su Xuan put away the seven bronze boxes and the Phantom Sound Box. The Phantom Sound Box is the supreme treasure of the Yin-Yang School. Even though it has lost a portion of its value now that the bronze boxes have been cracked, just by virtue of its ability to play thousands of demonic sounds, it is a treasure that is well-deserved for the Yin-Yang School.

As for these few bronze boxes, Su Xuan decided to keep them. They are, after all, cultural relics that have circulated in the world for a thousand years, with extraordinary value and great commemorative significance.

After finishing these things, he took the turtle shell and went to Zhangtai Palace.

"How does the State Preceptor have time to come to me? I heard that the State Preceptor has been cracking the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon during this time. Is there already a result?"

After seeing Su Xuan, Ying Zheng asked curiously.

During this time, he had actually summoned Su Xuan to the palace to lecture on the Dao.

However, he learned that Su Xuan had matters to attend to.

Therefore, he did not continue to force Su Xuan to enter the palace. Of course, when Su Xuan gave Ying Zheng a reply, he also informed Ying Zheng of what he was doing.

This made Ying Zheng very curious about whether Su Xuan could crack that secret.

The Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon!

This secret has been circulating in the world for a thousand years. According to ancient legends, whoever can crack the secret of this object possesses the powerful power to control the world.

Ying Zheng sneered at this.

The Qin Guo has already unified the world, and he did not rely on the so-called Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon. In the end, man can conquer nature; the rumors of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon are just a scam.

Of course, since this object has been circulating for so many years, he also really wanted to know what the true secret of this object was.

"I have already found the last bronze box and cracked the secret of the Seven Luminaries of the Azure Dragon!"

Su Xuan did not hide the fact that he had gathered all seven bronze boxes. After all, he had originally asked for the Qin Guo's bronze box from Ying Zheng.

"Oh?"
