A Divine Artifact Bestowed, Stargazing to Question Heaven
After Zhuge Yu listened to Shouxin recount the entire incident,
The head of the Star God Palace looked extremely grim.
The little boy who was always by my side.
The genius he had placed his hopes on.
It was a thief who Three Quarters Past Noon!
Fortunately, this matter was not made public, otherwise, he would have been utterly humiliated.
But compared to face.
What's even more frightening is what if that thief had been allowed to remain lurking nearby?
The consequences would be unimaginable!
Thinking of this.
Zhuge Yu looked at Chen Ning gratefully. "Thank you, Sect Leader Chen, for saving face for the entire Star God Palace. Please accept my bow."
You're exaggerating.
Chen Ning supported Zhuge Yu's body as he was about to kneel down.
"Sect Leader Chen, you subdued the Spirit of the Heaven-Devouring Bag, resolving the crisis at the Star God Palace, and also helped me eliminate the traitor within my own ranks. Such a great favor deserves my deepest bow."
Zhuge Yu thought for a moment and then spoke again, "I heard from Shouxin that Sect Leader Chen, you have already subdued the true Spirit of the Heaven-Devouring Bag?"
"Exactly."
Chen Ning nodded.
"Very well! Sect Leader Chen is an unparalleled genius. Since he has already subdued the spirit of the Divine Artifact, it must be the will of Heaven. I naturally cannot keep anything from him any longer and should bestow the Divine Artifact upon him."
Zhuge Yu uttered these words.
Chen Ning was also taken aback.
The other party actually wanted to give me the Divine Artifact.
"This is, after all, the Star God Palace's most prized treasure; I'm afraid I cannot accept such a gift."
Chen Ning shook his head.
"Sect Leader Chen, please do not refuse. Although Divine Artifact are precious, my Star God Palace has never relied on such external objects to stand firm in the Central Province."
Zhuge Yu smiled broadly and said, "Besides, Divine Artifact cannot guarantee the safety of my Star God Palace's descendants, but if we can forge a deep friendship with you, Sect Leader Chen, it will far surpass this so-called Divine Artifact."
"In that case, I will accept your offer without hesitation."
Chen Ning stopped being coy.
And this Heaven-Swallowing Bag is exactly what I wanted.
I ask you.
If half of the Dragon-Seeking Sect disciples were to enter the Heaven-Swallowing Bag...
That's equivalent to carrying a nuclear weapon activation device with you.
At that time.
The Supreme Immortal-Slaying Grand Formation is mobile.
Upon seeing Chen Ning accept the gift, Zhuge Yu was all smiles.
Previously, I had only heard about Chen Ning from his beloved grandson.
Besides that, I just listened to the rumors circulating outside.
But this time, through a brief contact...
Zhuge Yu admired him from the bottom of his heart.
Shouxin has already recounted the whole story.
Sect Leader Chen's performance inside the Heaven-Swallowing Bag was truly astonishing.
Giving the Heaven-Swallowing Bag to the other party was a decision made after careful consideration by Zhuge Yu.
Although the Star God Palace ranks sixth among the super powers.
But there are no promising talents among the younger generation today.
There is a food shortage.
In addition, Zhuge Yu's Stargazing Technique had reached an extremely high level.
He foresaw that the Star God Palace might face a calamity in the future.
They wanted to survive the great calamity.
At this point, it's necessary to make plans early.
The momentum of the Dragon-Seeking Sect is strong, so it would be beneficial to sow seeds of good karma.
This also means that the Star God Palace has found a helping hand in the face of future calamities.
At the same time.
The system's crisp notification sound also rang in Chen Ning's mind.
"Ding! Detected that the host selected option one [Accept Request] and has achieved it. Congratulations, host, you have received a reward of +2 cultivation level. Current cultivation level: Venerable Martial Ninth Layer."
Chen Ning smiled.
The trip to the Star God Palace was quite successful.
The hidden threat has been eliminated.
I acquired a Divine Artifact.
There's also the Divine Artifact of the divine artifact, equivalent to the Heaven Martial Realm Third Layer.
They also established good relations with the Star God Palace.
Of course, what satisfied Chen Ning the most was the improvement in his cultivation level.
He is now Nine-Star Martial Venerable.
Looking at the entirety of Nine Provinces.
That person is among the strongest of the strong.
Chen Ning's eyes flickered slightly, and then he remembered something else and asked, "Palace Master, if I may be so bold as to ask, regarding the Star God Palace's Stargazing Technique, is it possible to deduce some unknown things?"
"Oh?"
Zhuge Yu was taken aback at first, then asked, "Is Sect Leader Chen interested in our sect's Stargazing Technique?"
"That's not quite it. It's just that I'm looking for something—a token left behind by the First-Generation Sect Master of the Dragon-Seeking Sect."
Everyone knows this.
The Stargazing Technique of the Star God Palace are incredibly profound.
It can even predict the future.
Divination and deduction are techniques that are mysterious and profound.
After all, the second stage of the main quest is to find the token left behind by the First-Generation Sect Master.
What is this token? What does it look like? Where is it?
Chen Ning knew nothing about it.
That's why I thought I'd try my luck.
"I see."
Zhuge Yu smiled and said, "The art of star observation emphasizes the ability to glimpse the secrets of heaven. How much one can glimpse depends on the origin and cause and effect of the object one wishes to deduce. The greater the involvement, the higher the difficulty. I cannot guarantee that I can definitely deduce it, but I will certainly do my best."
"Very well! This junior thanks the Palace Master in advance."
Chen Ning clasped his hands in a fist and spoke.
Zhuge Yu nodded.
Then, his expression became solemn.
Throughout the entire Star God Palace, his Stargazing Technique was the most profound.
It has reached the Heaven-Questioning Realm.
As the name suggests.
While others were still observing the stars, trying to decipher the secrets of heaven.
Zhuge Yu was now able to ask questions directly.
To get the answer.
With the old palace master personally employing this technique, the Star God Palace dared not be careless.
Shouxin had already retreated outside the hall.
Only Chen Ning and Zhuge Yu remained in the main hall.
At the same time, Chen Ning could faintly sense several Heaven Martial Realm auras nearby.
It seems that a supreme expert from the Star God Palace is secretly protecting Zhuge Yu.
"Zhuge Yu, a descendant of star-gazers, dared to inquire about the secrets of heaven!"
Zhuge Yu murmured, his eyes sparkling with starlight.
A strange power surged and communicated with the stars in the sky.
This moment.
The moon hides, the stars appear.
"Sect Leader Chen, now that I'm drawing you into this Heaven-Questioning Realm, you can ask any questions you may have."
"And the answer will only appear in your mind."
Thank you.
Chen Ning understood the other party's intention in doing so. Zhuge Yu did not ask in person, but instead chose this more Divine Power method.
That's precisely to avoid finding out the answer to Chen Ning's question.
Such a person naturally knows that Chen Ning has some answers, but certainly doesn't want others to know.
He simply stopped trying to find out.
What secrets did the First-Generation Sect Master investigate?
Chen Ning looked up at the sky, his tone calm.
Because only he knew the answer, Chen Ning asked the question that had always intrigued him the most.
However, the starry sky was also peaceful.
There was no movement for a long time.
As for the answer in my mind, it didn't appear either.
"Sect Leader Chen, this question cannot be answered. I'm afraid the matter you're inquiring about is too significant, and the secrets of heaven are difficult to fathom. Perhaps you should ask another question?"
Zhuge Yu's expression was also somewhat unpleasant.
Clearly, maintaining Wentian's state was extremely difficult for him.
Upon hearing this, Chen Ning nodded and asked again, "May I ask where the token left by the First-Generation Sect Master is currently located?"
Silence fell again.
Both of them were quite surprised.
Especially Zhuge Yu, although he could not share this answer.
Judging from the celestial phenomena, it was clear that Sect Leader Chen's question had once again failed.
What secrets does this token hold?
They couldn't even get a location from me.
"Sect Leader Chen, please think about the third question quickly, or I fear I may not be able to hold on any longer."
Zhuge Yu looked anxious.
Chen Ning, on the other hand, was caught up in a brainstorming session.
The first two questions failed, so I have to get something out of this one, otherwise all my efforts will have been in vain.
But how can we find out the whereabouts of this token?
Finally.
Chen Ning had a flash of inspiration and came up with an idea.
