Three Pure Ones Hall
One month.
He just used the Void Projection Technique, and a month has actually passed.
The two worlds have different time flow rates?
Wrong!
If the flow of time is different, how can he communicate in real time between Qiushan and Blue Star?
In an instant, countless thoughts flooded his mind.
Among them, the clearest is the speculation about that fantasy world projected onto Blue Star.
Blue Star!
This world.
The two were originally in the same space at different times.
Like two trains passing by at different times on the same railway track.
For some unknown reason, two trains that should have passed at different times ended up intersecting in time.
Ultimately, they "saw" each other.
And this created the possibility of "contact".
This is a one-month time difference.
It stems from a crossing between two worlds.
Just like the time required to traverse the distance between two cars.
In other words, this change only occurs when he truly wants to transcend the world's timeline.
In the future, as time goes by and the two cars get closer, this change will become smaller and smaller.
When the time in the two worlds becomes completely synchronized, that will be the moment when the two worlds completely overlap.
"Before this, the two worlds were not entirely unable to intersect."
He himself is the best example.
Even...
As time goes on, there will be more and more examples like him in the future.
It's just that those people couldn't grow to the point where they could contact the "real spirit world" in a short time and thus return to Blue Star to confirm their speculations.
"Therefore, my guess is true. The reason why the Void Projection Technique consumed so much energy to project onto Xie Yusheng is because I broke through the spacetime limitations between the two. It was equivalent to projecting from the past to the future, or from the future to the past. And my previous feeling of weakness, as well as the reduced perception between me and my true body, was not due to issues with spiritual consciousness or True Spirit..."
Gu Jinlai, this has been clearly understood in our hearts.
It's time.
The passage of time has severed the connection between the True Spirit and the physical body.
Even with his efforts to eliminate the light, he was unable to completely eradicate this influence.
"Ancestor, are you alright?"
Gu Chaoyang couldn't help but ask with concern.
The situation at Lingxiao Palace is currently excellent. The fate of the Gu Clan, and even the entire Tiannan region, rests entirely on Gu Jinlai's shoulders. If he suffers even the slightest mishap...
This was a fatal blow to the Gu Clan and to the emerging power of Lingxiao Palace.
"I'm fine, I was just too engrossed in comprehending Divine Ability."
Gu Jinlai.
He glanced at the crowd and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, it's time to send troops to Muzhou, isn't it?"
"Yes."
Xin Tianqi nodded. "Our forces from the main Lingxiao Palace and the various halls within Lingxiao Palace have all assembled and are just waiting for His Highness the Southern King's order for the army to set off."
As he spoke, he paused slightly, glancing at Gu Jinlai with some concern. "Your Highness seems to be in rather poor condition right now. Perhaps... we could postpone the advance on Muzhou for a month?"
"No."
Gu Jinlai calmed himself down and said, "I only consumed some spiritual energy. I can recover quickly by taking some Yuanling Pills. Since a complete strategy has been formulated for the Battle of Muzhou, it should be strictly implemented."
Xin Tianqi, Zhang Lihuo, Jing Yunshan, and the others exchanged glances, considering the current power of Lingxiao Palace...
The group immediately nodded.
"I will obey Your Majesty's orders."
Everyone withdrew.
Zhang Lihuo did not leave, but stepped forward and said, "Elder, we don't actually need to rush to Muzhou. The manufacturing of the Chengying mecha cannot be completed in a short time... Furthermore, if we wait a little longer, we can produce more swords, heavy cannons, and shells, and the battle to wipe out Muzhou will be more successful."
He clearly thought that Gu Jinlai wanted to gather enough immortal refined gold as soon as possible to forge a second Cheng Ying mech.
However, Gu Jinlai shook his head.
He looked up and gazed south towards Muzhou.
In just a few months, Muzhou's dark fortune has grown significantly.
Considering Mu Zhou's perfunctory attitude during its last attack on Lan Zhou, and the relative calm the Demonic Beasts have been during this period...
He sensed an impending storm.
"We cannot let the Demonic Beasts of Muzhou go unchecked; the sooner this potential threat is eliminated, the better."
Gu Jinlai solemnly said, "Alright, no need to say more. I'll leave this place to you and Xin Tianqi. I'll take Zhang Yukun and the other Grand Celestial Masters with me to ensure the smooth completion of the sweep of the Demonic Beasts in Muzhou."
Zhang Lihuo nodded. "When Emperor Qian learned that we had gathered an army and planned to march on Muzhou, he issued a special decree three days ago to acknowledge and encourage us, and also to warn other forces."
Muzhou is neither the Yunqi Mountains nor the Tianhe River.
This is a territory that has been completely occupied.
Over the years, the number of Demonic Beasts entrenched there has probably reached hundreds of thousands, millions, or even tens of millions.
Although the Demonic Beasts in Muzhou are not as elite as those in Tianhe due to the short time Muzhou has been occupied, their sheer number is enough to make any force shudder.
In addition, Muzhou's operational range spans tens of thousands of miles...
Even with the forces that Lingxiao Palace has gathered all south of the Milky Way, it would take them half a year, or even one or two years, to wipe out Muzhou.
During this period, the Lingxiao Palace's internal power will inevitably be weakened.
Emperor Qian, Jiang Tianji's edict, full of warnings, was undoubtedly telling the world that Lingxiao City's restoration of Muzhou was a meritorious deed for the country and a revenge for all mankind against the Demonic Beasts.
During this period, any force that dares to launch an attack while Lingxiao Palace is undefended will be met with a thunderous strike from the Great Qian Dynasty.
"Emperor Qian, you are quite thoughtful."
Gu Jinlai said, "In this way, we will have even less to worry about."
"I hereby wish the Supreme Elder a complete victory in vanquishing Demonic Beasts."
Zhang Lihuo solemnly cupped his hands in greeting.
"Then I'll take your kind words."
A slight smile Gu Jinlai.
Yuezhou.
Sanqing Hall.
As the number one power in Qiantian, the Sanqing Palace, which openly possesses two saints, two divine weapons, and one terrestrial immortal, has power that is almost unimaginable.
If they wanted, they could even overthrow the Great Qian regime.
Even a powerful figure like the Imperial Tutor Taiyuan, when faced with two saints wielding divine weapons and the True Immortal True Person, a terrestrial immortal and the world's number one master, could only face defeat and death.
In fact, if the True Person of Beginningless wanted to deal with him, he wouldn't even have a chance to escape.
Because...
Compared to Taiyuan wielding the divine weapon, Wushi True Person had the divine weapon recognize him as its master.
The difference between the two...
Those who wield divine weapons are roughly equivalent to someone holding a sniper rifle, relying on its superior steel material to fight against an opponent wielding a wooden stick, gaining a complete advantage.
Those who obtain the divine weapon's recognition are equivalent to top-tier marksmen, facing enemies of the same level wielding wooden clubs.
The two are not comparable at all.
It's just a pity...
There is no harmony between the saints and the terrestrial immortals in the Sanqing Hall.
Especially a hundred years ago, it seems that True Person Wushi was severely injured and handed over the two divine weapons, the Heart of the Stars and the World Sword, to True Person Wuzhong and Wunian, while he himself remained in seclusion.
It's unclear whether he's recuperating from his injuries or trying to comprehend the legendary realm of immortals, where one can live for a thousand years and attain eternal life.
The True Person Wushi went into seclusion, and the conflict between the True Person Wuzhong and Wunian continued to accumulate.
Today, the three True Person have separated and each resides in a different place in Yuezhou.
Although the Sanqing Hall is nominally still a single power, it has internally split into three factions, and there is still a certain degree of infighting among them.
This is also why, for the past century, the Sanqing Palace has never raised its banner and overthrown the rule of the Great Qian royal family over the Qian Heaven and Earth Realm.
At this moment, in the most central location of the Sanqing Hall—Wuchen Residence.
Two men and one woman, along with a young boy, hurriedly arrived outside Wuchen Residence.
Any one of these three would be a major figure in the outside world, capable of shaking Yuezhou and even the Great Qian with a stomp of his foot.
Xuanqing, Xuanchi, Xuanwu.
All three of them were Celestial Person.
The Celestial Person in the main lineage of the Sanqing Hall.
However, at this moment, the three of them had worry written all over their faces.
"How could this be? Xuan Yue actually suffered such severe injuries? A devastating blow to her soul!?"
Xuanqing's tone was full of anxiety.
"According to the young man who brought him here, they discovered a rift in the Demon Realm during their training, so they invited him and two celestial masters to seal the rift, but were ultimately injured by the Demonic Spirit within the rift."
Xuanwu said in a deep voice.
"The Demon Realm Rift?! Those three dared to invite Xuan Yue to undertake such a dangerous mission; they deserve to die!"
Xuan Qing's face was full of sternness.
"Xuan Yue escaped because we had kept her locked up for too long. She then teamed up with a guy named Zong Xuan for adventures and training. Those people had no idea who he was... When he was seriously injured, they still managed to send Xuan Yue back from a great distance as quickly as possible..."
Xuanwu said something.
But before he could finish speaking, Xuan Qing interrupted him, "So what!?"
The woman, who appeared to be around thirty years old but exuded an air of elegance and wealth, spoke with a hint of coldness, "Xuan Yue was injured because of them, so they deserve to die! Don't you know what Xuan Yue means to us?"
Xuanwu glanced at the unconscious boy whose face was still filled with pain, and said nothing more.
The boy looked very young, not because he had cultivated himself into True Lord and lived to be two hundred years old.
Rather, it's because he is indeed young.
He is not yet thirty.
He became True Lord before the age of thirty, not because of his talent.
The reason is known only to a very few people within the main lineage of the Sanqing Hall.
This True Lord, known as Xuan Yue, is the only one who can evoke a resonance from the world's swords.
In other words, if it weren't for the fact that the World Sword Master—the Beginningless True Person —was still alive, he would have been the next Divine Weapon Master.
What kind of fortuitous opportunity will one have after obtaining a divine weapon that recognizes its master...?
The five individuals—the Heavenly Emperor, the Beginningless True Person, the Abyss Lord, the Shadowless One, and Tai'a—have already demonstrated their brilliance to the world.
Even Xuan Yue was able to cultivate into Primordial Spirit True Lord before the age of thirty because of this.
But now, this person, who was destined to become the master of divine weapons and achieve a status comparable to Wushi True Person, Yuanzhu, Wuying, and Tai'a, is seriously injured and on the verge of death!
How could this not enrage the three Celestial Person?!
