Chapter 394: Chapter 393 Lu Yang’s Patent Fee_1

Yun Zhi, as the most knowledgeable about the Way and Its Laws in this era, owes not only to her extraordinary talent in this respect but also to her intensive reading of classics in the Scripture Pavilion and her deep understanding of various doctrines.

Theoretically, even if she couldn’t use a magic skill, she should have heard about it.

Yun Zhi watch Lu Yang’s still spinning arm in silence, recalling what she has seen and heard, she could not fathom which magic skill her junior brother was practicing.

She exhaled lightly, stepped forward, grabbed Lu Yang’s wrist, and pulled him out from the midst of his spinning.

“Huff-Huff-Huukh-”

After Lu Yang emerged, he swayed dizzily. Everyone seemed to be shifting, round and round the room spun, his mind all muddled, he was unable to maintain his balance and leaned on the Qiulong Tree trunk, retching.

Golden Core Stage cultivators can avoid the dizziness brought on by rotation by adjusting their organs, but that requires training. Not like Lu Yang, who started spinning wildly without even a moment to adjust.

“Creating a space in your palm, are you learning a Divine Ability similar to Buddha Land in Palm?” Yun Zhi caught a hint.

Lu Yang closed his eyes, steadied his body, and rested his forehead against the tree, finally feeling a bit better.

“Yes, it’s Universe in Palm which Fairy Eternity taught me. I’ve only learned the basics.”

Thinking of Lu Yang’s ability to learn, Yun Zhi had a rough guess of what had just happened.

Mid-stage of the Golden Core Stage, not bad at all. It seemed his junior brother had been practicing diligently in her absence.

Whoo—

Yun Zhi gently blew a breath towards Lu Yang. Just like a spring breeze sweeping across his face, Lu Yang instantly felt his mind clear and return to normal.

“Eldest Senior Sister, you’re back?”

“Mhm.”

Lu Yang glared at Fairy Eternity, who was enjoying the spectacle in the Spiritual Space. He looked at Eldest Senior Sister, who no sooner arrives than helping him get out of the dizziness, then looked at her, the longer he’s been spinning, the more enjoyment she had!

Fairy Eternity turned her head away guiltily.

At first, she wanted to stop Lu Yang, but as she watched him spinning, she found it quite amusing and couldn’t look away.

“Go ask about my patent fees!” Lu Yang wasn’t going to let Fairy Eternity go easily. He actively allowed Fairy Eternity to possess him.

Fairy Eternity wanted to struggle a little, but Lu Yang was so resolute. Reluctantly, she possessed him.

“Miss Yun, did you finish questioning the Transcendence Tribulation Stage practitioner from the Great Yu?” Fairy Eternity plucked up her courage to speak; she decided to adopt a roundabout strategy.

“I did, and there were some gains. The person standing behind him was the second Imperial Teacher of the Great Yu Dynasty. His exact Cultivation Level is unclear, but the second Imperial Teacher had assigned him to investigate the power and purpose of State Destiny of the Great Xia Dynasty. Only then did he send two ancient Unification Stage and the Governor of Qingzhou for a confrontation.”

“Had it not been for Junior Brother urging me to come over, he would have been successful.”

The implementation of the Imperial Teacher system in the dynasty of Great Yu was one of the root causes leading to the demise of Great Yu. Undeniably though, at the time when Great Yu was first established, the Imperial Teacher system proved to be crucial. More so, the first two Imperial Teachers, both prodigious talents, were able to stabilize the dynasty, thus strengthening Great Yu.”

The first two Imperial Teachers hold crucial roles in the Great Yu Dynasty, and through word of mouth, they have almost reached a godlike status.

“It’s a pity that the second Imperial Teacher maintains only one-line contact with him, so he isn’t clear about the whereabouts of the second Imperial Teacher.”

“As for how many Great Yu’s Transcendence Tribulation Stage cultivators have awakened, he is also uncertain. However, based on the tasks assigned to him by the second Imperial Teacher, he inferred that there should be at least one other Transcendence Tribulation Stage cultivator that was awakened in Great Yu, apart from him.”

“He has quite a bit of information about the Unification Stage of Great Yu, which has been handed over to Junior Brother Dai and the Luoshui Guards of the Great Xia to handle. But these Unification Stage practitioners from Great Yu are very cautious, possibly alert to the situation of the Qingzhou grand ceremony, already fled. Exactly how many can be caught now depends on luck.”

“According to his statement, the most dangerous person under him is the Tomb Bone True Monarch. Although his cultivation is ordinary, he possesses a broken Ten Thousand Soul Banner. The Ten Thousand Soul Banner was originally intact, but he failed to keep it safe during his slumber. The Ten Thousand Soul Banner gradually decayed over the long Suiyue, and fierce ghosts escaped from the banner, plaguing the world.”

“During the thirty thousand years history of the Great Xia, ‘ghost troubles’ occurred once in Liang State. Fierce Ghosts ran rampant, making life miserable for the people, leaving no one daring to go out at night. As a result, the entire Liang State was haunted, the Imperial Court had to dispatch a large number of personnel to suppress the ghost troubles. Regrettably, the Imperial Court then was unaware of the message of the ancient cultivators’ awakening. They did not consider this aspect, and the cause of the ghost troubles remained uninvestigated.”

“That ghost trouble should have been caused by the Tomb Bone True Monarch’s Ten Thousand Soul Banner. The timeline is roughly accurate.”

“Tomb Bone True Monarch is currently repairing the Ten Thousand Soul Banner. He needs a massive amount of bloody aura and vengeful spirits to complete the repair.”

“To obtain a massive bloody aura and vengeful spirits, killing is inevitable.”

“If he is repairing the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, it means he’s found a place that generates bloody aura and vengeful spirits, yet we have not received any information.”

“If we cannot find him as soon as possible, by the time the Ten Thousand Soul Banner is repaired, even if we can catch him, it will be too late. He will make a last-ditch effort and ruin the Ten Thousand Soul Banner. The fierce ghosts will come out of the banner and wreak havoc across an entire state.”

By the end of the conversation, Yun Zhi’s tone had an unusual touch of heaviness.

Lu Yang: “…”

Fairy Eternity: “…”

Why does this Tomb Bone True Monarch sound so familiar?

Fairy Eternity hesitated a moment before asking, “What does this Tomb Bone True Monarch look like?”

The Heavenly Calamity Sovereign had already handed over the likenesses of his subordinates. Yun Zhi snapped her fingers and a wisp of smoke billowed out, slowly forming into an old face that Lu Yang and Fairy Eternity found highly recognizable.

A thin and shriveled old man, who looked like he hadn’t had a decent meal in days, wielded a broken banner.

“It really is him!” exclaimed Lu Yang and Fairy Eternity in unison.

“You know him?” Yun Zhi was puzzled. Tomb Bone True Monarch was a cultivator from Great Yu, who had always hidden in the dark. The specific state he was hiding in had not yet been confirmed. How could these two have seen him?

Fairy Eternity put on an air of profound insight, as if she were some strategist of far-sighted wisdom. She made pressing gestures with her hand, as if calculating something, but looking more like someone in the throes of a manic episode.

“I calculated that there was a demon cultivating in Liang State, so I ordered my subordinate Dark Ghost Heavenly King to join forces with the Nine Nether Sect to suppress the demons and find this monster. Once captured, I gave it to the Nine Nether Sect as a symbol of friendship between our two sects!”

Yun Zhi has roughly translated this as Grand Elder and Vice Headmaster Shi, unaware of the situation, had already captured Tomb Bone True Monarch, with Lu Yang and Fairy Eternity as mere spectators.

The exact process didn’t matter, just catching him was enough.

Yun Zhi saluted, “Fairy Eternity’s planning is incredible.”

Fairy Eternity was pleased with herself, she glanced provocatively at Lu Yang.

“There is one more trivial matter concerning Lu Yang. I would like to ask you,” she said.

“Please go ahead, senior.”

“Lu Yang applied for a patent for flying cars, and Fifth Elder Xiao Wu said that the patent fee had been handed over to you. Why haven’t you given the patent fee to Lu Yang?” Fairy Eternity was not the least bit polite to the headmaster of Heaven’s Court Sect, as she was the ruler of the Heavenly Court.

It seemed Yun Zhi had thought up of something, her tone was calm.

“So, it’s about that.”

“Why haven’t I given it to Lu Yang?”

“I forgot.”
