Chapter 801: Laying Out a Strategy in the Upper Planes, Fishing for the Xuanwu Venerable
The will of Hun Dun is formless and imageless, yet it controls the birth and destruction of all things.
Even the Lun Hui Emperor can only barely sense its existence.
"The will of Hun Dun..."
Lin Xuan's eyes were profound.
He suddenly understood that what the Lun Hui Emperor encountered back then was the will of Hun Dun.
It is an existence that transcends everything.
To defeat it, one must master the complete origin of Hun Dun.
At this moment, the stone statue suddenly cracked open.
A dazzling ray of light shot out from within, surging directly into the center of Lin Xuan's brows.
Boom!
A massive amount of information and energy surged in frantically.
The laws of Lun Hui within Lin Xuan's body began to transform.
The laws, which were already extremely powerful, sublimated once again at this moment.
His cultivation rose with the tide, and the bottleneck was shattered in an instant.
Early-stage Sovereign, mid-stage Sovereign!
In just a brief moment, Lin Xuan broke through directly to the mid-stage Sovereign realm.
The aura radiating from his body made the nine empresses feel palpitations.
This kind of power had already surpassed their understanding.
It is unknown how much time passed before the light dissipated.
Lin Xuan opened his eyes, and visions of Lun Hui flashed within his pupils.
The six paths of reincarnation swirled within them, as if containing the origin of the world.
"So that is how it is."
He muttered to himself.
After receiving the complete inheritance, his understanding of the laws of Lun Hui had improved countless times over.
What was previously only an introduction could now be considered true mastery.
"Your Majesty..."
Sima Xue walked over with concern.
Lin Xuan smiled slightly: "I am fine."
"On the contrary, I have obtained a great opportunity."
He took out the star map and examined it carefully.
The information marked on it was extremely detailed.
The Taixuan Divine Dynasty has three main gods, all with strength at the late-stage Sovereign realm.
There are also dozens of Supremes and countless quasi-saints.
Such strength, placed in the upper planes, can only be considered upper-middle tier.
The truly terrifying ones are the Zixiao Heavenly Court and the Ten Thousand Buddha Sacred Land.
These two major forces each have five main gods and numerous hidden cards.
In particular, the Heavenly Emperor of the Zixiao Heavenly Court is said to have already touched the origin of Hun Dun.
"Interesting."
A sharp light flashed in Lin Xuan's eyes.
"The gods of the upper planes? They are nothing but stepping stones on my path of conquest."
He looked at Sima Xue and the others: "The harvest this time is huge."
"I already have a complete plan."
"First, use Murong Tian as a chess piece to secretly lay out a strategy in the upper planes."
"When the time is ripe, I will overthrow the gods in one fell swoop!"
The eyes of the nine empresses were filled with adoration.
They knew that His Majesty already possessed the capital to challenge the upper planes.
The inheritance of the Lun Hui Emperor would become their greatest hidden card.
Lin Xuan put away the star map and scanned the entire great hall.
Besides the inheritance, there were quite a few Golden Treasures here.
They were all collections from the Lun Hui Emperor's lifetime.
"You all divide these things up."
With a casual wave of his hand, countless Golden Treasures flew toward the concubines.
There were Spirit Pills to improve cultivation and Golden Treasures to enhance laws.
Every single item was a rare treasure hard to find in the outside world.
The concubines accepted them with joy and thanked him respectfully.
Lin Xuan took one last look at the remains of the stone statue.
"I will keep the kindness of the senior in my heart."
"On the day I conquer the upper planes, I will surely restore the senior's reputation."
He turned and left the great hall, with the concubines following closely behind.
This trip to the Heaven Beyond Heaven had yielded results far exceeding expectations.
Not only did he obtain the inheritance of the Lun Hui Emperor, but his cultivation also broke through to the mid-stage of the Sovereign realm.
Most importantly, he mastered detailed intelligence on the Upper Planes.
"Taixuan Divine Dynasty..."
A cold sneer curled the corner of Lin Xuan's mouth.
"Soon you will all know what price there is for offending Us."
After returning to Lingxiao Hall from the Heavens Beyond Heavens, Lin Xuan sat alone on the Lun Hui Throne.
In his hand, he toyed with a purple-gold jade talisman, which was the supreme communication treasure obtained from the Lun Hui Emperor's inheritance.
This jade talisman was named the "Void Communication Talisman," capable of conducting communication while ignoring any spatial distance.
Even when separated by the Upper Planes and the Middle Planes, it could transmit information instantaneously.
More crucially, this talisman was refined with the Laws of Lun Hui, making it impossible for any detection method to perceive it.
Even Sovereign-level powerhouses could not pry into its contents.
"Summon Murong Tian to the hall."
Lin Xuan spoke indifferently.
The guards stationed outside the hall immediately went to relay the order.
After less than a quarter of an hour, Murong Tian hurried over.
Ever since the soul oath was established, he had become completely a servant of Lin Xuan.
"Your subordinate pays respects to Master."
Murong Tian knelt respectfully on the ground, no longer possessing even a fraction of his former arrogance.
Lin Xuan did not speak immediately, but instead employed the Lun Hui Heavenly Eye to examine the other party.
The oath deep within the soul was incomparably firm, with no signs of loosening.
After nodding in satisfaction, he tossed the Void Communication Talisman to Murong Tian.
"Keep this item well; this is the only way for us to contact each other."
Murong Tian took the jade talisman and probed it with his divine sense, immediately becoming incredibly shocked.
This tiny jade talisman actually contained such profound power of the Laws.
"Many thanks to Master for the bestowed treasure."
He hurriedly thanked him.
Lin Xuan waved his hand, entering directly into the main topic.
"After you return to the Taixuan Divine Dynasty, you need to do three things."
Murong Tian immediately listened respectfully.
"First, spread the news that this Middle Plane you are patrolling is completely worthless."
Lin Xuan's gaze was icy.
"The Spirit Qi is thin and resources are scarce; it is not worth the Divine Dynasty's attention at all."
"Delay the Upper Planes' attention to this place and buy time for Us."
Murong Tian nodded: "This subordinate understands."
"With this subordinate's status, such news is very easy to spread."
"Second, secretly search for factions and powerhouses who are dissatisfied with the Taixuan Divine Dynasty."
Lin Xuan continued.
"We do not believe that in such a vast Divine Dynasty, everyone is willing to submit."
"Find these people, record their information, and in the future, We will send people to make contact."
These words made Murong Tian's heart tremble.
Master intends to dismantle the Taixuan Divine Dynasty from within!
"This subordinate will certainly search with diligence."
"Third, and also the most important thing."
Lin Xuan stood up and stood with his hands behind his back.
"Collect detailed intelligence on the Taixuan Heavenly Venerable."
"His cultivation realm, personality and temperament, cultivation techniques, and even his personal preferences."
"The more detailed, the better; do not let a single detail slip by."
Cold sweat seeped from Murong Tian's forehead.
Investigating intelligence on a Main God—this was a crime punishable by death.
But the soul oath made him unable to refuse, and he could only bite the bullet and agree.
"This subordinate obeys the order and will certainly not fail Master's trust."
Lin Xuan turned around, his gaze like a torch.
"Remember, your every move is under Our control."
"If you dare to have any disloyal thoughts, the soul oath will make you unable to live and unable to die."
Murong Tian trembled all over and hurriedly pledged his loyalty.
"This subordinate would never dare to betray Master!"
"Everything is for Master's great cause!"
Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand to signal him to withdraw.
Murong Tian felt as if he had been granted a pardon and took his leave.
After walking out of Lingxiao Hall, he looked at the Void Communication Talisman in his hand, his mood extremely complex.
As a dignified Inspector of the Taixuan Divine Dynasty, he had actually been reduced to someone else's pawn.
But recalling Lin Xuan's terrifying strength, he had to admit it.
Following such a master might not necessarily be a bad thing.
Perhaps in the future, he could truly overturn the landscape of the Upper Plane.
"Forget it, since I cannot resist, I might as well serve well."
Murong Tian took a deep breath and steered the Flying Boat back to the Upper Plane.
At the same time, in the Taixuan Divine Dynasty of the Upper Plane.
This place was one of the most prosperous areas in the entire Upper Plane.
The Divine Dynasty occupied three hundred and sixty-five continents, each one even more vast than the Middle Plane.
Countless cultivators practiced here, and the strong were as numerous as clouds.
