The Treasure Secured, Chen Xuan and Yue Nv

When Zhao Xing uttered the words "Marquis Ming, please wait" in the language of the Yue Luo Ancient Kingdom, the dark-skinned guard wielding the Fire Tipped Spear raised his hand, halting his subordinates' attack.

Yu Tianqing's face was still filled with regret. He had just learned that he had awakened Major Divine Ability innate power and was about to soar to great heights, but now he faced certain death. How could he not feel regret?

Jing Yan nudged Yu Tianqing with his elbow and winked, saying, "Look, Brother Zhao is about to start showing off again. It's good that you know a lot." Jing Yan didn't know what language Zhao Xing was speaking, but since he was able to stop that Book Puppet, he must have been quite confident.

"Who are you people!" Marquis Ming repeated his first question.

"We are the Grand Tutor's men." Zhao Xing uttered each word clearly. The pronunciation of the Yue Luo Ancient Kingdom was unique, requiring one to access the source power and follow a certain musical principle.

When Marquis Ming spoke three sentences, Zhao Xing also quickly adjusted his pronunciation, making his language patterns essentially closer to the historical Yue Luo True Words.

He wasn't supposed to learn it so quickly, but people are often forced to do things.

Jing Yan and Yu Tianqing's lives, as well as half of his fortune, are tied up here. Zhao Xing's potential has been unleashed.

They actually managed to do it.

"Why did the Grand Tutor's men force their way into the palace?" Marquis Ming continued to ask.

Hearing this answer, Zhao Xing's confidence soared, and he spoke even more fluently, "The king has listened to slander, and the Grand Tutor is about to be executed. If the Grand Tutor dies, the country will be in turmoil and in danger of collapse."

"I have heard that Marquis Ming, brave, benevolent, and righteous, and his reputation is widespread. I beg Marquis Ming to uphold Justice and save the country from its dire straits."

Zhao Xing's impassioned voice echoed through the empty palace, before falling silent.

Jing Yan felt that Zhao Xing was radiating light, and he was filled with admiration, shouting a few times.

The powerful Book Puppet remained silent and motionless.

Is someone really that cultured?

Zhao Xing stared intently at the other person, because he had heard about this person's name, title, rank, and deeds from the information he had obtained from Du Yun.

The patterns and ancient characters described by Yu Tianqing also match this person.

In other words, the chief of the inner court guards, who was granted the title of Marquis Ming and was named "Jun Yichen," is a character in the Biographies of the Yue Luo Ancient Kingdom.

His heroic spirit will be remembered in history.

So how did Jun Yichen manage to make his name in history?

There wasn't much information about Du Yun either, just a brief sentence: He stormed the palace to remonstrate, killed the treacherous Japanese soldiers, and died to prove his loyalty.

Unparalleled in morality.

As for what he advised and who he killed, Zhao Xing didn't know. He guessed that the person who would be remembered in Official History with a positive comment was probably not the villain in the Grand Tutor incident.

Anyone in charge of the palace's defenses who dared to break into the palace, even with the slightest hint of personal motive, would be branded a "regicide" and would not be subject to such a judgment.

Based on Jun Yichen's behavior and words: he kept asking himself who he was, trying to ascertain his identity, instead of killing him directly.

Zhao Xing guessed that Jun Yichen was a positive figure in the "Grand Tutor's Execution", and could even be said to be an aid in passing the test - as a dignified Grand Tutor with outstanding achievements, there must be some people pleading for him when he was to be executed, or even helping him break out of prison, right?

"I am but a lowly person with little influence and limited skills. I am unworthy to see Your Majesty, nor am I capable of doing such a thing," Jun Yichen said in a deep voice. "You have the wrong person."

"Marquis Ming, does your sense of morality change according to your ability?"

"Is your loyalty, courage, benevolence, and righteousness measured by your rank?"

The barrage of questions left Jun Yichen speechless, frozen in place.

He could easily crush these three people with a wave of his hand, but he just couldn't bring himself to use his Fire Tipped Spear.

Zhao Xing dared not delay any longer, and immediately said resolutely, "Now I must find a way to do my part for the country I love and to fulfill the righteousness in my heart. If Marquis Ming wants to kill us, we will not blame you."

"I am willing to die under Marquis Ming's loyal spear."

After saying that, Zhao Xing strode away from Jun Yichen.

Jing Yan and Yu Tianqing didn't know what was going on, but they followed suit, putting on a passionate expression, putting down their weapons, and walking towards the powerful Book Puppet.

Since we can't beat them anyway, we'll just go with Zhao Xing.

The three of them brushed past Jun Yichen's spear tip, keeping their eyes straight ahead, and headed towards the Yue Luo Supreme Hall.

They quickly broke out of the encirclement.

Yu Tianqing was extremely shocked to see that the other party really didn't make a move.

What exactly happened? How did it just pass by like that?

Jing Yan thought to himself that Old Zhao was awesome; he was truly impressed by Zhao Xing's performance.

Zhao Xing breathed a sigh of relief. He couldn't keep taking advantage of being educated; he had to put his knowledge to good use!

Just when the three thought they had escaped a calamity, Jun Yichen suddenly spoke up, "Wait!"

The three of them felt a jolt, and their spirits sank to rock bottom once again.

Zhao Xing didn't turn around, but just turned his face to the side. His brain was working at lightning speed, trying to figure out what other way to save Jing Yan and Yu Tianqing.

However, Jun Yichen did not make a move at this time.

"The three of you going to the Yue Luo Supreme Hall will not only fail to offer any advice, but will only cause trouble."

Jun Yichen, holding a long spear, walked over step by step.

Zhao Xing was slightly taken aback.

"Lord Ming, you—"

Jun Yichen didn't speak, but with each step he took, his aura grew twice as powerful.

Yu Tianqing transmitted his voice with trepidation. "Zhao, Zhao Xing, his source fluctuations have reached a level I cannot confirm. The Solar Yang Yin Star have appeared on that paper and have stood up from it."

Zhao Xing didn't know what had happened, but Jun Yichen's aura at this moment definitely surpassed the Third Realm and reached the Dao Domain Realm.

When Jun Yichen walked up to him, he felt that this person was even stronger than the Great Scholar Zhuo En.

Zhuo En is at the Yin Yang Dao Domain Realm!

As Jun Yichen passed Zhao Xing, he stopped and turned to the side. "My principles have never changed, but I am not sure if the Grand Tutor will really be executed."

Do you have any tokens of the Grand Tutor on you?

Zhao Xing's heart sank; he didn't have that thing on him.

But Yu Tianqing understood what he meant at that moment.

He had never learned the language of the Yue Luo Ancient Kingdom before, but in this brief conversation, relying on his innate Major Divine Ability,

They were already able to understand what they heard.

"Yes." Yu Tianqing reached into his pocket and pulled something out.

It was a crown and three ancient coins.

Jun Yichen reached out and summoned three items into his hand.

"Indeed, it is the aura of the Grand Tutor."

After saying that, Jun Yichen flew towards the direction of the Yue Luo Supreme Hall.

In the blink of an eye, they disappeared from the three people's sight.

"Whoosh~"

It wasn't until ten breaths later that Jing Yan began to catch his breath.

Yu Tianqing also belatedly realized that he was trembling.

"Brother Zhao, are we... alive?"

"Um."

Zhao Xing nodded.

He looked at Yu Tianqing strangely. "Brother, where did that come from?"

Yu Tianqing, sweating profusely, said, "You said that Aries was possessed by the spirit of the Grand Tutor, and I have seen Aries after he was possessed."

"He threw away some things that belonged to Aries. I saw that the things were nice, so I picked them up after he left."

"I... I was just desperate and trying anything, thinking it might work."

"Frugality is truly a virtue," Zhao Xing couldn't help but remark. "It's a good thing you valued these odds and ends and picked them up again."

The contest between Aries and Ruan Chang is bound to have a winner.

To break down Aries ' resistance, Ruan Chang's spirit must first remove some of his armor.

Inevitably, it will be tainted with Ruan Chang's aura, and thus it can be used as a token.

Zhao Xing guessed that Jun Yichen would eventually visit the Yue Luo Supreme Hall. The difference was that Jun Yichen was not someone who could be easily fooled by Zhao Xing and the others.

Only those who can be proven to be true Grand Tutor will be accepted.

"If I were to enter a historian's alternate world now, then to participate in activities in the royal palace, I would need to have a thorough understanding of the history of the Yue Luo Ancient Kingdom."

"In addition, we also need quest items related to the event, namely Grand Tutor Ruan Chang's token—."

"Damn it, I hate this kind of dungeon the most. It's such a headache," Zhao Xing grumbled.

"Stop cursing, bro. Let's find somewhere else. I feel really unsafe right now," Jing Yan whispered.

He was terrified that the person would return.

"You're afraid too?" Zhao Xing mocked.

"Brother, my life matters too," Jing Yan said irritably. "Having the courage to face death doesn't mean I'm not afraid of it. Who wants to die when they can live? What kind of stupid question is that!"

Zhao Xing was filled with deep resentment.

Having escaped unscathed, the three quickly moved to a new location.

Han Luo Army was transferred away, and Jun Yichen, the head of the Imperial Guard, also left.

The safety of Zhao Xing and his two companions has been greatly increased.

However, in their search for the Historian's Three Treasures, they still encountered many Book Puppet blocking their way.

Fortunately, thanks to Yu Tianqing's Eye of Insight, they rarely encountered flawless Book Puppet afterward. With Zhao Xing as their guide, the three of them, though they did encounter battles, managed to escape unscathed.

"Brother Zhao, how do you know that the four-patterned Book Puppet from earlier couldn't leave the palace's vicinity of a thousand miles? Once it left, it would be hunted down by another imperial guard?" Jing Yan asked.

"Even if the tomb's occupant belongs to the Void History School, he still has to base his story on existing historical records."

"Between truth and falsehood, and between falsehood and truth, the goal of confusion can be achieved."

"Besides, why would he waste his Realm Cultivator Brush faking things on some minor characters?"

Jing Yan shrugged and said, "We've had it too easy. Apart from Jun Yichen, we haven't seen many powerful heroic spirits."

"The Clear Skies has cleared and the rain has stopped, and you think you're all set now?" Zhao Xing said disdainfully, "Who was it that was trembling and saying they didn't feel safe just now?"

"Really? Who?" Jing Yan pretended to have amnesia.

Zhao Xing was too lazy to pay attention to this shameless person, and explained to the two of them, "It seems that you haven't been to the Realm Transmission of historians much."

"To put it simply, the historian's Realm Transmission will determine the 'protagonist' and 'supporting characters,' as well as the main body of the story and its background system."

"Apart from free agents like Yu Tianqing, you and I have all been labeled."

"You mean we have a status in the Realm Transmission?" Jing Yan asked.

"Yes, a nobody."

"Talent like Jun Yichen can be considered an important supporting actor."

"Aries is in trouble. He was well prepared from the beginning, so after he came in, he played the role of Grand Tutor."

Realm Cultivator Brush his writing on Ruan Chang, highlighting the far greater dangers he faced compared to us.

"The whole world will target Aries, the 'protagonist,' not us."

"Starfire's scheme is quite ambitious. I think they're after the Yue Luo Grand Historian Crown, the Realm Cultivator Brush, and the Preaching Book."

Zhao Xing picked up the two sheets of paper with the magical power and waved them around. "It's definitely not for such a small amount of profit."

Yu Tianqing felt his worldview had been refreshed. The Minor Divine Ability paper was nothing but a pittance?

"Brother Zhao, have you ever been to the Realm Transmission as a protagonist?" Yu Tianqing asked curiously.

"Yes." Zhao Xing nodded. "Very dangerous."

"How dangerous was it? Tell me." Jing Yan was determined to get to the bottom of things. They had just gone through a battle and were resting in the hidden barrier of the Twelve Wandering Deities, the ' Wandering God Realm '.

"I once went to a Realm Transmission to try my luck," Zhao Xing introduced. "I can't reveal the powerful figure's title, nor can I go into details. From now on, I'll refer to you by your pseudonym."

Jing Yan Yu Tianqing expressed their understanding.

Long ago, there was an ancient kingdom called "Qing," and an emperor named "Fu Lin." There was also a believer named "Xing Sen."

"This ancient Lord of the Kingdom did not do his job properly and preferred to practice unorthodox methods. He met ' Xing Sen '."

"One day, his beloved concubine died. Lord of the Kingdom Fu Lin was heartbroken and, under the influence of Xing Sen, made a decision: to abandon his country and become an Ascetic Practice who did not concern himself with worldly affairs."

"At that time, the Qing Ancient Kingdom was beset by internal and external troubles, and the dynasty's fortunes were unstable. If this guy left, it would definitely lead to the decline of the kingdom, or even invasion by foreign tribes."

"In this Realm Transmission, some people play the role of Xing Sen, some are Xing Sen's teacher, some are Lord of the Kingdom Fu Lin Lin's ministers, and some are his sons—"

"Different factions have two missions: one is to prevent the Lord of the Kingdom from dying, and the other is to seduce the Lord of the Kingdom into dying."

"If you are in the Abandoned World camp, you have to brainwash a Lord of the Kingdom all day long, and face difficulties and assassinations from all over the world. Your only supporter is this Lord of the Kingdom."

"If you're on the savior's side, you can get the support of everyone except the Lord of the Kingdom, but you might also pay the price with your life. For example, Xing Sen's teacher, he died on the Sun Star because he failed to stop them."

"Both are extremely dangerous and fraught with difficulties."

Jing Yan asked in surprise, "What kind of fool is this? Why would he give up being a proper Lord of the Kingdom and insist on abandoning the world? How much does he love that woman?"

Yu Tianqing asked, "Brother Zhao, what was the final result? Which side won?"

Zhao Xing shook his head and said, "The Abandoned World faction won. That ancient Lord of the Kingdom ultimately truly gave up his cultivation."

He joined the ancient religion. However, there were no winners in the renunciation camp; "Xing Sen" died, and his teacher also died.

"Can I become a prince?" Jing Yan asked. "Wouldn't being a prince be an easy win?"

"Fine, if you go in, you'll get smallpox, neither alive nor dead. You'll suffer."

"What is smallpox?" Yu Tianqing asked.

"A powerful disease that even those at the Dao Domain Realm cannot withstand."

"At that time, a plague called 'smallpox' swept across the planetary region, and many who attempted to conquer it could not survive it."

It gets cold as soon as you go in.

"The savior faction also lost a lot of characters. The imperial physician who couldn't cure that beloved concubine died in large numbers."

Jing Yan felt that Zhao Xing was talking nonsense. Zhao Xing was only at the minor Source Origin Realm, while according to his description just now, that historical realm was at the level of the "Emperor's Chronicles".

But he had no evidence, so he just took it as a joke.

"In short, we were lucky. Aries was the one who took the brunt of the lightning, and we also ran into Tian Qing for help," Zhao Xing said with a smile. "The owner of this tomb was only at the Dao Domain Realm, and he hoped that his records would be passed down to the world, so the chances of survival are very high."

"Some Starry Sky Historian are incompetent; they deliberately fabricate myths and legends to mislead people. It's impossible to complete the mission and successfully pass the test. You're dead as soon as you go in; even nine lives wouldn't be enough to kill you."

"This path deserves to be banned," Jing Yan wholeheartedly agreed.

This class deserves to be nerfed; it's such a rip-off.

"Tian Qing, have you rested enough?" Zhao Xing asked.

Yu Tianqing opened his eyes. "It's barely enough."

Jing Yan quickly took out a bright red spiritual fruit and said very sincerely, "Brother, please don't force yourself. There are more if you need them. We can wait."

Although he didn't know why, Jing Yan could see that Yu Tianqing was special; without him and Zhao Xing, he wouldn't have been able to get out.

Barely enough? That won't do!

"Eat as much as you want. Zhao Xing and I don't have much else on us, but we brought plenty of survival supplies," Jing Yan said. "Make sure you get plenty of rest, Brother Yu."

Yu Tianqing was also amused by Jing Yan, and accepted the fruit somewhat embarrassedly. "Then I'll rest for another three to five months."

"Well."

Yu Tianqing's innate divine Major Divine Ability consumes a great deal of energy when used.

He was the most exhausted of the three.

Zhao Xing is thick-skinned and tough, so he doesn't consume much of his own energy when fighting.

What is Giant Sun?

Jing Yan has recovered more than ten times, but Zhao Xing's Giant Yang Clone's spiritual power hasn't even been depleted by half.

He has made just as many moves as Jing Yan.

"Qi Sect Martial Practitioner are damn useful," Zhao Xing couldn't help but exclaim.

Especially their ability to survive in dangerous situations is several levels higher than that of a mage.

In other words, if Zhao Xing didn't want to rescue Jing Yan and Yu Tianqing, he could have easily found a corner here and waited.

One day in the future, the people of the Origin Heavenly Palace will open this tomb.

There's no need to worry about starving or being trapped to death.

But neither Jing Yan nor Yu Tianqing are suitable.

If Zhao Xing's true form doesn't cultivate the Origin Sea World, it won't work either.

Six months later, Yu Tianqing finally returned to full strength, and his abilities had greatly improved.

Before entering the ancient tomb, he was at the early stage of the Minor Mystic Power Realm, but now he is at the late stage.

"In just over two years, he's broken through several minor realms." Zhao Xing was a little envious.

"When Lao Yu takes off in the future, I'll have him make a copy for me. The price he has to pay at that time won't be too high, so he should agree," Zhao Xing thought to himself.

Investing in the future Lord of the Kingdom is a sure-fire deal; how much did he even spend?

It only cost ten million to redeem Yu Tianqing initially. Later, when I helped Yu Tianqing fight monsters, including this time when I borrowed money to buy equipment, it didn't cost much at all.

"Le Yao is truly a talent; I should spend more time in prison in the future," Zhao Xing thought to himself. "For example, that Wu Tian, Great Divine Power Five Finger Mountain, is also a good thing."

The twelve arched bridges flew back to Jing Yan's body, and the surrounding scenery gradually faded.

They could see the palace outside again.

The three set off again to search for the Historian's Three Treasures.

"Brother Zhao, I think I've found the place." Yu Tianqing suddenly looked in a certain direction.

"What did you see?" Zhao Xing asked.

"A book with a black cover, thirty-six Sun Star on the front and seventy-two Yin Star on the back."

"I can't see what's inside the book cover; there's a very strong force preventing me from investigating."

"However, many rays of light emerged from it, some disappearing into the sky and some disappearing into the ground."

"That should be the Preaching Book," Zhao Xing said. "It is the foundation of the entire Realm Transmission system. All spells, such as Book Puppet, memory modification, See Nothing, Hear Nothing, and supernatural powers that misattribute Zhang Guan Li Dai, all originate from it."

"It's like the core compartment in the Realm Boat. Removing it will reduce the overall danger level of the Realm Transmission."

"Brother Zhao, what level is it?" Jing Yan asked.

"It should be Solar Dao Soldier," Zhao Xing pondered. "If it's from the Realm of the Current Era, then it would need to be supported by Source Origin Divine Weapon."

"Solar Dao Soldier?!" Jing Yan revealed greed.

"Brother Yu, can you see where the Grand Historian Crown is?" Zhao Xing asked.

"A hat?" Yu Tianqing said, "I saw a lot of hats, many styles, but I don't know which one is the Grand Historian Crown."

"The crown is adorned with the Sun Star, surrounded by twelve other stars whose rays pass in succession, symbolizing time and light."

"The crown is square-shaped, with embroidered eyes on the face, and the crown straps on both sides extend past the earlobes and shoulders to ensure proper vision."

"It is the Supreme Beginning Crown of the Yue Luo Ancient Kingdom. It should also have jade ornaments on both sides of the crown band, and they are collectively called Luo. The Grand Historian should wear seven Luo."

"There are many different interpretations of what the specific patterns are, but there are roughly eighty-nine different shapes of the Luoqi (a type of jade ornament)." Zhao Xing waved his hand and described the shapes of the Luoqi he knew.

After Yu Tianqing finished reading, he continued to gaze into the distance. In his eyes, the palaces gradually blurred, leaving only crowns floating in the air.

"Brother Zhao, I searched using your method and found three palaces with the exact same Supreme Beginning Crown, all of which are at the Seven-Lobe level."

Zhao Xing said helplessly, "The tomb owner is trying to mislead people; I'm afraid only one of them is genuine."

"Choosing one of the three is easy enough," Jing Yan said nonchalantly. "We'll just have to go three times. I'll send the Mechanical Puppet in."

"Then give it a try," Zhao Xing said, not believing it was that simple.

After confirming the location with Yu Tianqing Jing Yan dispatched three Mechanical Puppet to rush straight to the three ancient palaces.

However, as soon as his Mechanical Puppet flew to the square in front of the palace, it was blocked by the Book Puppet.

The blue bricks on the square suddenly seemed to come alive, condensing from the ground into three thousand Book Puppet.

Each of the Book Puppet possesses the strength of the Minor Mystic Power Realm and all have the function of "Twinborn Book Puppet".

Jing Yan, wanting to test the waters, manipulated three Mechanism Puppet to fight.

"Boom!"

One of the melee puppets charged forward with a gun, aiming straight for the Book Puppet's weak point—its navel.

"Clang clang clang clang~"

The continuous thrusts, amidst a series of phantoms, seemed to be accompanied by the roar of a rhinoceros-like monster. The scorching essence of the Solar Yang, carrying a violent impact, deflected the Book Puppet's greatsword.

"Pfft~"

The light shone through the Book Puppet.

"Jing Yan's Source Origin Dispersal and Advanced Tactics Optimization are truly powerful." Yu Tianqing exclaimed, "Even though they didn't send out the Twelve Wandering Deities, their combat strength is still so strong."

Advanced combat tactics refer to the combat instincts and skills of Mechanical Puppet.

Optimization, on the other hand, further increases the potential of Mechanical Puppet.

Source Origin Dispersal is also a classic secret technique among Imperial Mechanism Master, capable of weakening the opponent's origin power.

Yu Tianqing only learned that advanced combat techniques could be optimized after getting to know Jing Yan, and he had never heard of such an exquisite combat skill as Source Origin Dispersal before.

"The tactics are good, but not very useful." Zhao Xing shook his head. "They're all Symbiosis puppets; the more we fight, the stronger they get."

When only one remained, its fighting power was unimaginable.

"Besides, he can't even kill many of them."

Before he could finish speaking, Jing Yan's Mechanical Puppet was destroyed, turning into a pile of parts.

However, it also killed seven Shu Kui, which is not bad.

"I can't handle it." Jing Yan shook his head. "We can't eliminate them all at once; these Book Puppet get stronger the more we fight them."

"Don't look at me." Zhao Xing shook his head. "Even my Giant Yang Clone can't handle a thousand Third Realm Book Puppet at the same time."

Tombes at the Dao Domain Realm are not easy to open. Even if a historian's tomb is not intended for murder, it is still not something Minor Divine Ability being can easily crack.

"Don't you know a lot?" Jing Yan asked.

"I only know what's the use of knowing, but what can I do if I don't meet the hard requirements to pass?"

"The way to obtain the Supreme Beginning Crown is right there; you can pass the level by instantly killing a thousand Book Puppet."

"The problem is that even the three of us combined don't have that kind of strength."

Zhao Xing quickly realized that the three of them would not be able to get past this hurdle.

"Let's first see where the Realm Cultivator Brush is and what the requirements are for passing the challenge," Zhao Xing said. "We don't need to look at the Preaching Book."

Without the Supreme Beginning Crown and the Realm Cultivator Brush, that level will only become stronger.

Yu Tianqing said, "The twenty-ninth arched palace counting forward from the east is the one in the Realm Cultivator Brush."

"It kept moving, as if it were writing something on the void as paper."

"With each movement, countless characters radiate outwards along with the light."

Zhao Xing nodded. "Jing Yan, you go."

His Giant Yang Clone shouldn't be at the forefront at this time, doing any reconnaissance work.

Jing Yan, the Dao Soldier Stream Mechanism Master, is still the most reliable.

The Giant Yang Clone is not easily injured, but once injured, it is difficult to recover, because Zhao Xing did not bring many materials from the Xu Zu.

Jing Yan Yu Tianqing Mech Martial Practitioner, and he doesn't have the ability to fight in multiple places at once. Jing Yan, on the other hand, is fine, as he has a bunch of Mechanical Puppet in his pocket.

"It's me again," Jing Yan muttered. "I, a dignified prince, have become cannon fodder in the exploration—"

"What are you muttering about? Brother Yu is still the Lord of the Kingdom, and I am still the Grand Minister of Agriculture. Which of us isn't more valuable than you, the heir ranked over 30,000th?"

"Twenty thousand, only a little over twenty thousand!" Jing Yan argued, "I only have a little over twenty thousand heirs ahead of me!"

"Fine, fine, twenty thousand it is." Zhao Xing said with disdain, "Please bring out Prince Number Twenty Thousand."

Jing Yan cursed and flew eastward.

Yu Tianqing then activated his Eye of Insight to observe.

Less than thirty seconds later, Jing Yan returned.

"How about it?"

"What do you mean, how?" Jing Yan asked blankly. "Didn't we just fail at the Supreme Beginning Crown trial? We're waiting for you to come up with a solution."

"What's wrong with him?" Zhao Xing asked, frowning.

"When Jing Yan went there, a beam of light from the Realm Cultivator Brush passed right through him," Yu Tianqing said. "Then he came back, and there was no battle."

"It seems he has amnesia." Zhao Xing nodded. "That means the Realm Cultivator Brush involves supernatural techniques of [memory modification] or [memory forgetting]."

"Should I go?" Yu Tianqing asked. "The forgetting technique doesn't affect me, so it might work."

"I'll go first," Zhao Xing said. "If I can't manage, then you can go."

Yu Tianqing is our last hope; he cannot be harmed.

"Okay," Yu Tianqing said, "Be careful."

"Jing Yan, look at me."

Jing Yan now realized that he had probably just passed a test, but he didn't remember doing so.

"It seems I need to go back and cultivate properly." Jing Yan deeply felt his own strength was insufficient.

He used to go to places of low level, but now, facing Dao Domain Realm, he feels powerless.

Jing Yan took out the Twelve Wandering Deities and had them surround Zhao Xing.

The two flew together to the location of Realm Cultivator Brush.

Yu Tianqing, was hoping for good news.

However, two days later, Jing Yan lost his memory, and Zhao Xing returned with Jing Yan, his face pale.

"What happened?" Yu Tianqing asked.

Zhao Xing ate a fruit to restore his spiritual power.

"What's wrong with him?" Jing Yan had forgotten what had happened again, even forgetting his vow to cultivate diligently.

"Besides the memory erasure, the Realm Cultivator Brush showed me bloody and dark scenes," Zhao Xing said, shaking his head. "I knew it was fake, but when the enemies in the scenes rushed over, I was instinctively afraid and terrified."

"This test also comes with a test of willpower; even with my Minor Divine Ability, I couldn't withstand it."

"If I can't hold on, my soul will be wounded," Zhao Xing sighed. "The illusion became reality, and those heroic spirits actually attacked me."

There was no other way; although the Slaughter Thought Blade was already at the Seventh Order Minor Divine Ability,

But the levels here are much more difficult.

The Realm Cultivator Brush is not something they can take; it should be reserved for the three Major Divine Ability beings of Starfire.

The problem is that Aries has lost its appeal; if they want to go out, they can only play supporting roles while doing the work of the main characters.

"I'll give it a try," Yu Tianqing said. "If you and Jing Yan can both come back safely, at the very least I can escape unscathed."

"Okay." Zhao Xing nodded.

Now our hope rests on Yu Tianqing.

If he still doesn't make it, then all that's left is to survive and wait for rescue. But there are too many variables involved, and it's uncertain whether he'll ever be able to get one.

"Whoosh~"

Yu Tianqing immediately flew eastward.

Far beyond the imperial palace lies a Purgatory Execution Grounds.

A group of powerful heroic spirits surrounded the sea of fire.

The Aries was covered in sharp thorns, which almost pierced through its entire body.

He looked around expressionlessly, quietly awaiting death.

"Ruan Chang, do you really want to die?" A voice questioned from within Aries's body. "The Lord of the Kingdom Yueluo is incompetent and foolish, listening to the slander of his concubine. Why don't you rebel against him?"

At this moment, Aries was extremely anxious, as his body was now completely under Ruan Chang's control.

The key point is that after this heroic spirit took control of himself, he did not resist the cruelty of the Lord of the Kingdom!

Ruan Chang wanted to die, but Yang Baihe didn't.

He possesses Major Divine Ability, and his future is bright. After returning to the empire this time, his resume will be marked with a brilliant chapter. With talent and aptitude, Yang Baihe has unlimited potential!

How can I willingly die here?

"I consider him my own child." Another voice echoed within Aries. "How could a parent disagree with their child wanting to take something from me? Even if it were my life, I would be willing."

Even if history repeats itself countless times, I will still make the same choice.

"Yang Baihe, you are not from my era, nor are you me, so you wouldn't understand how I feel."

"You bastard, this is blind loyalty!" Yang Baihe cursed, "Do you know you were killed because of him? And the Yue Luo Ancient Kingdom perished quickly after your death, and you're still trying to cover up this history for him!"

"If my death can awaken that once wise and brave child, then it will all be worthwhile."

"After we are resurrected, we will surely be able to revitalize the Yue Luo Ancient Kingdom."

"You're a madman! The dog emperor is a madman, and you're a madman too!" "You think you can rise from the Death Trap? Dream on..."

Yang Baihe roared and twisted, but finally fell silent.

His body and soul were burned to ashes.

After Ruan Chang's death, a group of heroic spirits began killing each other.

And a group of people came toward the place where the Grand Historian Crown, the Preaching Book, and the Realm Cultivator Brush were kept.

"Sieve, sieve, sieve~"

The Realm Cultivator Brush trembled incessantly before Yu Tianqing, and lines of ancient characters flashed rapidly through the void.

[——]——- Ruan Chang was willing to die, even after he was ordered to commit suicide by the tyrannical emperor.

Jun Yichen broke through three realms in a single day, going directly from Major Divine Ability being to the Life and Death Dao Domain Realm, intending to slay the demon concubine and remonstrate with the king at the cost of his life.

Two days later, he died in the Extreme Dao Hall.

The wicked empress and the tyrannical emperor issued a secret order: kill all those who knew the truth and force the Grand Historian to erase all unofficial histories and revise the official annals.

Yu Tianqing and Zhao Xing's expressions darkened as they looked at the words written by Realm Cultivator Brush.

"What's wrong with you guys?" Jing Yan asked, puzzled. "You've already taken out the Realm Cultivator Brush, so why do you all look so depressed?"

Yu Tianqing obtained the Realm Cultivator Brush without lifting a finger; all tests of memory loss and willpower seemed to be ineffective in his presence.

Once taken out, the Realm Cultivator Brush automatically formed characters in the void.

Zhao Xing and Yu Tianqing understood it immediately, although the translation might not be very complete, they could understand the general meaning.

However, the information we received was not good.

"Realm Cultivator Brush wrote will inevitably happen. So, once Jun Yichen and Ruan Chang are dead, this city will be cleansed," Zhao Xing said.

Jing Yan asked, "Now that we have the Realm Cultivator Brush, can we leave?"

Zhao Xing said, "Obtaining the Realm Cultivator Brush can only help us know what happens next. None of the three of us are historians, so we can't use the Realm Cultivator Brush."

"We don't know when the battle with Jun Yichen took place, or how long afterward, powerful heroic spirits will come to cleanse us."

"In short, we are likely to be in great danger, and we must act as soon as possible."

Zhao Xing stood up and looked to the other side.

"Tian Qing, now you possess the Realm Cultivator Brush. Although you cannot use it, the fact that you can hold it means that you can enter and exit the Proclamation Palace and the Grand Historian Palace."

"Let's hurry and retrieve those two treasures."

"Okay." Yu Tianqing didn't waste any words and immediately began to take action.

The three of them immediately headed towards the other two palaces.

Realm Cultivator Brush continues to write and draw.

Zhao Xing kept a close eye on it.

Because it can write down what is going to happen, and if anything is wrong, it can detect it in advance.

"It's too late to ask for help now; we can only find a way out on our own," Zhao Xing thought to himself. "The purge is about to happen. Even if we risk offending Starfire, it won't solve our immediate problem."

With Yu Tianqing leading the way, Zhao Xing and his two companions quickly entered the Grand Historian Palace and obtained the Supreme Beginning Crown.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Tianqing put on the Supreme Beginning Crown and went to the Proclamation Palace.

"Boom!"

After the Preaching Book was taken away, the heavens and earth seemed to shake.

Zhao Xing stared intently at Realm Cultivator Brush.

A line of text appeared in the void: [Ruan Chang was beheaded in the Purgatory Execution Grounds. The powerful source of the Dao caused turmoil in heaven and earth, seemingly related to Yuan Dao Grand Tutor.]

The cultivation levels of all practitioners were thus affected.

"After the Preaching Book were moved, the combat power of these Book Puppet also weakened." Zhao Xing looked at the Book Puppet wandering aimlessly outside the palace.

"The original Minor Mystic Power Realm Symbiosis puppet has been reduced by two minor realms, and is now only at the late stage of the second realm."

"It's a pity I can't use it." Yu Tianqing with some regret.

Of the three treasures, only the Supreme Beginning Crown could be worn by him, serving a protective function.

However, he was unable to use the Realm Cultivator Brush and the Preaching Book.

Both Dao weapons are class-specific and cannot be used without mastering the [History Book]; they can only be viewed.

"It's already very good," Zhao Xing said. "After the relocation, at least the power of the Book Puppet has been weakened."

"The Supreme Beginning Crown can guarantee that we can deal with all kinds of supernatural Magic Array in the Realm Transmission. Jing Yan and I no longer need to worry about losing our memories. Ordinary Book Puppet will not be able to see us."

After acquiring the Seven-Luo Supreme Beginning Crown, the situation for the three of them improved significantly.

To those Book Puppet, it was as if they were under a spell of "See Nothing, Hear Nothing," completely ignoring the existence of Zhao Xing and his companions.

"Now we just wait, let Realm Cultivator Brush advance the plot, and see where the tomb owner left the exit and a way out—let's get out of the palace first!"

Zhao Xing and his two companions quickly left the palace.

And not long after they left.

Two groups of people appeared in the palace shortly afterward.

"~Swish~"

Two Major Divine Ability beings, one of whom was wearing silver armor and wielding a fiery red sword, had skin that was red as if he were constantly bathed in the Solar Yang's essence.

Chen Xuan, another Grand Mystic Power Realm martial artist from Starfire.

The other person was a long-haired woman wearing black and white robes with heterochromatic purple and blue eyes.

Her code name is Yue Nv, and she is a Grand Mystic Power Realm on the path of the soul.

"Yue Nv, how is she?"

"Aries is dead." Yue Nv closed her eyes and sensed it.

"We came in first, attracting a large number of Book Puppet and creating a relatively safe exploration route for him."

"He's still dead?" Chen Xuan gasped. "This place is too eerie."

"Activate the backup plan." Yue Nv didn't hesitate for even a second. "Now I'm the leader, you follow my orders."

"Yes." Chen Xuan nodded.

"A riot of heroic spirits has broken out outside the palace. You are in charge of leading the men to stop the invasion of the Han Luo Army and various heroic spirits." Yue Nv ordered, "I will go in to find the historian's three treasures until I say it is time to retreat."

"Understood." Chen Xuan nodded.

The two teams, each consisting of about forty people, began to split up and act separately.

The Yue Nv went to find the historian's three treasures, while Chen Xuan provided support.

"Hiss, so many Book Puppet." Jing Yan looked at the heroic spirits in the sky and on the ground, which were like a tide and spread throughout the city like ants.

"Even if they've been weakened, there are still tens of thousands of people at the Third Realm, including quite a few Major Divine Ability beings, and even some at the Five Elements Dao Domain Realm?"

"I never want to dig up a historian's grave again, it's fucking terrifying."

Protected by three treasures, the three remained unharmed during the riots and purges.

Even Shu Kui, who was at the Dao Domain Realm, couldn't see them.

"I think so too." Yu Tianqing was also seeing this kind of scene for the first time. Although he only brushed past it, he was still a little scared.

That was so exciting!

A group of powerful individuals brushed past them, many of whom were capable of easily crushing them.

Yu Tianqing had never experienced as much excitement and danger in his life as he had on this journey.

Of the three, Zhao Xing was the most composed.

He is not in any immediate danger, but he faces a financial crisis.

"Don't just stand there for a moment," Zhao Xing said. "Let's see if we can snag a few decrees dropped by the Grand Mystic Power Realm experts."

"Don't pick up too many, three to five per person is enough."

"Why?" Jing Yan and Yu Tianqing both asked.

"The decrees Dao Command are the core of those Book Puppet, and also another foundation of this Realm Transmission."

"If we take too much, it will affect the operation of the Realm Transmission and we will be targeted by the entire Realm Transmission," Zhao Xing said. "In other words, if we outsiders affect the plot, the Realm Cultivator Brush will make corrections."

"Kill us outsiders to ensure the normal operation of the Realm Transmission."

Zhao Xing pointed to the Realm Cultivator Brush: "If we collect too many, this thing might just say, ' Zhao Xing, Jing Yan, Yu Tianqing, the three Grand Tutor's guards, also unfortunately died in this disaster.'"

"How unjust! We could have survived and made a fortune already, let's not die because of our last bit of greed."

Yu Tianqing took a deep breath, suppressing the greed in his heart.

To be honest, it really takes great willpower for him to keep his mind focused on having so many decrees lying around.

Each page contains a unique supernatural power or martial art technique; even a fragment can fetch a high price!

If Zhao Xing hadn't stopped him, he would have landed and picked it up long ago.

Yu Tianqing had never seen so much money in his life!

"Brother, you're incredibly experienced," Jing Yan exclaimed. "I truly believe you've adventured in other Realm Transmission."

Looking back now, he believes that every step Zhao Xing has taken since the beginning has been the right choice.

This includes crossing the moat, entering the city, and later finding someone to contact Yu Tianqing.

Although Yu Tianqing played a significant role, without Zhao Xing, even if Yu Tianqing had some special abilities, he probably wouldn't have been able to escape. One wrong step and he would have been finished.

Even someone as powerful as Aries could be executed the moment they stepped into the palace.

A genius-level expert in the Grand Mystic Power Realm lost his life in this ancient tomb without even making a ripple.

"Brother Zhao, we have to thank you very much," Yu Tianqing said.

"No, thank me later." Zhao Xing waved his hand and said, "You can thank me outside."

What kind of champagne should we open at halftime?

"We'll be collecting treasures later. If we can't collect a complete set of fragments, we'll just throw them away."

"If Tian Qing feels that the source fluctuation is weak, then it proves that it is not strong, so it should be discarded."

"Pick up anything dropped by those at the Grand Mystic Power Realm or Dao Domain Realm."

"Five is the maximum, no more than that, don't be greedy and keep any for yourself."

"We are already extremely fortunate to have obtained the Historian's Three Treasures, and we should be grateful."

"Understood, Tian Qing. How powerful is this Mystic Power Edict of mine?" Jing Yan picked up a scroll with a short sword drawn on it.

"So-so," Yu Tianqing said intuitively.

"It's lost." Jing Yan casually tossed it on the ground.

"What about this one?"

"Good."

"Holy crap!"

Zhao Xing smiled and watched the two of them pick and choose.

"I'm not kidding, you two could brag about this for the rest of your lives."

"You guys are so extravagant, even rich kids don't throw away supernatural powers so easily."

"Hahahaha," Jing Yan said, "When I get back to the Empire, I'm going to brag about it a lot!"

"My friends would probably think I'm talking in my sleep," Yu Tianqing laughed.

He was usually serious, but now he was practically grinning from ear to ear.

While Zhao Xing and his two companions happily collected treasures, Yue Nv and Chen Xuan's teams were in dire straits.

The purges and riots described by Realm Cultivator Brush quickly spread to the interior of the palace.

The Yue Nv and her men searched for a long time but found no trace of the Historian's Three Treasures. Instead, they found some fakes.

"What's going on? There's nothing there?" Yue Nv murmured to herself, "How could there be nothing?"

"Yue Nv, I can't hold on much longer!" Chen Xuan's voice was anxious.

He stood atop the palace wall, his body enormous, like a Solar Yang giant, wielding a flaming sword.

The surrounding Shu Kui surged forward like a tidal wave, and the violent attack was like a meteorite crashing into the Star Continent.

Chen Xuan is a true Major Divine Ability Qi Sect, and even Shu Kui, who is at the Five Elements Dao Domain Realm, cannot shake him.

But there are just too many people! Even ants can kill an elephant if there are too many of them!

His "Solar Yang" is about to go out.

"We have to hold on, even if it's tough!" the Yue Nv screamed. "This plan has been in Starfire works for over seven thousand years! We can only leave if we get the item!"

Chen Xuan groaned in despair, inwardly cursing Aries and Yue Nv as utterly useless.

I've been holding this up for so long, how come you still can't find it?

"I'm really going to die here. It's a pity I haven't been back to the Empire in a long time — Hmm? Who's that?" Chen Xuan's peripheral vision suddenly turned to the distance.

A figure suddenly flashed and disappeared atop the dome of a tall, spherical palace.

Then, he glanced around furtively and quickly disappeared into the void.

"Is that... Jing Yan?" Chen Xuan almost thought he was seeing things.

However, while Grand Historian Crown was effective against the Book Puppet, it had no effect on Chen Xuan, who was a living person. Chen Xuan was currently at his peak, with an enormous size. As the saying goes, "the higher you stand, the farther you can see," and he immediately captured this scene.

"The Twelve Wandering Gods Barrier, he's still alive?" "Did this kid steal the Mystic Power Edict?"

"Wait, why isn't he being chased by those Book Puppet?"

Chen Xuan immediately realized something.

"Damn it! While I and the Yue Nv are fighting to the death here, he's got the Supreme Beginning Crown and is out there picking up treasures?"
