The Name Heavenly Mystery Valley
Seeing the Great Qin Emperor's confident demeanor, Ying Qianshan secretly smiled to himself. The reason he revealed his identity as Ying Zheng was partly because he feared the Heavenly Dao would discover it, and partly because he wanted to give the Ying Qianshan Great Qin Emperor some confidence. Otherwise, telling him the Truth and making him understand that his Imperial Throne was illegitimate and that he would be afraid before the battle even began would not be a good thing.
"Don't be so happy yet. I asked you to win over Divine Machine Valley. Did you succeed?" Looking at the confident look on the Great Qin Emperor's face, Ying Qianshan was happy but kept his expression unchanged as he asked.
"Today, Prime Minister Li Ruosi reported that, apart from the Asura Sect, Yin Yang Demonic Sect, the Myriad Monster Kingdom, and the Heavenly Dragon Temple, the other five Sect have agreed to help the Great Qin Imperial Family suppress the Rebel Army. In addition, I have already notified the person in charge of the Divine Machine Valley to come to the Imperial Palace for an audience," the Great Qin Emperor replied upon hearing Ying Qianshan's question.
"Divine Machine Valley, Heavenly Mystery Valley, hehe..." Upon hearing the words of the Great Qin Emperor, Ying Qianshan smiled and continued, " Among the Nine Great Sects, Divine Machine Valley is also known as Heavenly Mystery Valley. Do you know why Divine Machine Valley has the name Heavenly Mystery Valley?"
"I'm sorry, I don't know," the Great Qin Emperor said, shaking his head frankly, not understanding why Ying Qianshan had brought up this topic.
Of the Nine Great Sects, the Asura Sect is the Asura Sect, and the Heavenly Dragon Temple is the Heavenly Mystery Valley Heavenly Dragon Temple. However, the Divine Machine Valley is also known as the Heavenly Mystery Valley, which is indeed very strange, just like the Great Qin Empire, which also had other names.
But for thousands of years, the names Divine Machine Valley and Heavenly Mystery Valley have become so familiar to the people within the Great Qin Empire. Everyone knows that Divine Machine Valley and Heavenly Mystery Valley refer to the same place.
"Divine Machine Valley, that's its original name. But later, because Divine Machine Valley did something that was above the Heavenly Laws, it got the name Heavenly Mystery Valley. Heavenly Mystery Valley, as the name suggests, means that even the laws of Heavenly Dao are not something that cannot be surpassed," Ying Qianshan explained.
"What? Divine Machine Valley did something that transcends the Heavenly Dao, hence the name Heavenly Mystery Valley? Why is this Secret History unknown to everyone? And what exactly did Divine Machine Valley do?" Upon hearing Ying Qianshan's words, the Great Qin Emperor exclaimed with wide eyes.
All things in Heaven and Earth operate according to the laws of Heavenly Dao. Not to mention the Cultivation World, even the Gods and Buddhas of all Heavens of the Immortal and Demonic Realms cannot defy the Heaven's Will. Just as neither immortals nor demons can enter the Cultivation World, this is the restriction of Heavenly Dao. Throughout history, who has ever crossed this line? Yet, Divine Machine Valley has actually managed to do it? Even the Gods and Buddhas of all Heavens cannot do it, how could they?
It's no wonder the Great Qin Emperor was so astonished. The most outstanding thing about Divine Machine Valley was not their combat power, but their forging ability. Therefore, in the hearts of all Cultivator in the Great Qin Empire, although Divine Machine Valley was one of the Nine Great Sects, its combat power was not very strong. It was just a group of powerful Artifact Forger. However, the Great Qin Emperor never expected that Divine Machine Valley could actually do something that transcended the Heavenly Laws.
"The path of cultivation has Major Realm: Refining Essence to Qi into qi, Refining Qi to Spirit, Refining Spirit to Void, and Refining Void to Dao. The Heavenly Laws stipulate that one must ascend to the realm of refining Refining Void to Dao and leave the secular Cultivation World. This rule has been broken by no one for hundreds of millions of years, but Divine Machine Valley has done it," Ying Qianshan said, his eyes filled with a hint of reminiscence.
"Back then, I collected rare and precious metals from all over the world, piling them up like mountains. The Valley Master of Divine Machine Valley, together with the other high-ranking members, studied them and successfully forged twelve Golden Man puppet using the mountain of rare and precious metals. Each Puppet possessed strength comparable to Cultivator at the Great Accomplishment Stage. Moreover, these twelve Golden Man could be fused into a single whole using a secret technique, reaching the Immortal-Demon level, surpassing the limitations of the Heavenly Dao."
"The Twelve Golden Figures?" Upon hearing Ying Qianshan's words, the Great Qin Emperor was slightly taken aback and said, "I know a little about this. I only know that back then, our Ancestor collected rare metals from all over the world and cast twelve Golden Man. I never expected that those twelve Golden Man would all possess the cultivation of the Great Accomplishment Stage, and I never expected that they could merge into one and possess the power of Immortal-Demon level."
"Indeed, back then, Divine Machine Valley actually succeeded in creating the Twelve Golden Figures and fusing them into one, giving them power that surpassed the limitations of the Heavenly Dao. However, these fused Golden Man were, after all, just inanimate objects. So, when they were successfully created, even though there was Heaven's Punishment, after the Heaven's Punishment was overcome, the Heavenly Dao seemed to have tacitly accepted the existence of these Twelve Golden Figures," Ying Qianshan said with a nod.
"That day, in the Xiaoshan Sacred Cave, I did see the Twelve Golden Figures, but I didn't look at them closely, thinking they were just twelve simple sculptures. I never expected that the Twelve Golden Figures would possess power at the Immortal-Demon level."
The Great Qin Emperor sighed, recalling that he had indeed followed Ying Qianshan's advice and entered the Xiaoshan Sacred Cave to absorb the Emperor's Aura of the Great Tang Emperor. At that time, he had seen the twelve Golden Man.
"The reason I'm looking for Divine Machine Valley is because the Twelve Golden Figures have suffered some damage and are unable to exert their full power. Therefore, I want to find Divine Machine Valley to repair them. I believe there is no other place in the world besides Divine Machine Valley that can repair the Twelve Golden Figures," Ying Qianshan said directly after the Great Qin Emperor learned of the importance of the Twelve Golden Figures.
"In that case, the Twelve Golden Figures must indeed be repaired as soon as possible," the Great Qin Emperor said with a hint of urgency upon learning that the Twelve Golden Figures possessed Immortal-Demon level power.
Once the power of Immortal-Demon level is put to use, no one, including Luo Ba, the Demon Queen, or the Golden Body Bodhisattva, will be a match for it. Suppressing those rebellions will be much easier.
This is the Cultivation World where the power of one person can turn the tide of battle. In war, even if the number of troops on both sides is vastly different, as long as the high-end combat power has an absolute advantage, the scales of victory will tip...
If the Twelve Golden Figures are fully repaired and possess Immortal-Demon level power, who could possibly be their match? They could be defeated one by Twelve Golden Figures. Once Liao Wufa, the Demon Queen, and the Golden Body Bodhisattva are killed off one by one, wiping out the Rebel Army would be a piece of cake.
"Moreover, I recently acquired a priceless treasure," as if the confidence the Twelve Golden Figures instilled in the Great Qin Emperor wasn't enough. Ying Qianshan took out the Demonic Qi Crystal he had obtained, a broad smile on his face, and said, "This Demonic Qi Crystal contains Immortal-Demon level energy. As long as we study it properly with Divine Machine Valley, we might be able to create a treasure comparable to the Twelve Golden Figures." (To be continued...)
