Chapter 1238: Chapter 410: The Celestial Master Mansion’s New Grand Formation (Double-Length Chapter)

In recent years, the Celestial Master’s Three Treasures have been reunited and are continually nurtured by Lei Jun.

Previously, when the three treasures were carried out of the mountain by Tang Xiaotang, they were also nurtured daily by Tang Xiaotang.

Now, Lei Jun approaches from another angle, nurturing the Celestial Master Seal, Celestial Master’s Sword, and Celestial Master Robe, while starting another round of adjustments and preparations.

Supreme Pure Thunder Mansion Cave Heaven, at the peak of Biyou Immortal Mountain.

An illusory altar is erected.

The altar looks entirely white and almost transparent, divided into three layers.

The Celestial Master’s Three Treasures reside within it.

The Celestial Master Seal is like a foundation, positioned on the first layer below, directly pressed against the mountain top of Biyou Immortal Mountain.

The Celestial Master Robe is in the middle on the second layer, flickering with a faint golden glow, as if alive, almost transforming into a human shape.

The Celestial Master’s Sword is situated at the very top on the third layer, directly drawing down the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder from the sky above the Supreme Pure Thunder Mansion Cave Heaven.

In response, the mountaintop of Biyou Immortal Mountain below also shows the emerald Nine Abyss True Fire.

Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire meld together at this moment.

Lei Jun sits cross-legged, suspended in mid-air, as mana flows around him, evolving into countless talisman scriptures that he continually throws into the Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire before him.

The Celestial Master’s Three Treasures remain serene, gradually reaching the state of stability and completeness that Lei Jun anticipated.

"The Tao produces one, one produces two, two produce three, three produce all things..."

Lei Jun nods slightly: "Now, reversing the process, all things return to three, and three to two have their foundations; it’s time for the final return from two to one."

Achieving natural comprehension, many things no longer hold secrets to Lei Jun, like water naturally flowing to a lower place.

After a period of calm reflection and comparison, he has shortlisted several plans, pending material conditions for further decisions.

"As for Dragon Scale Jade, the mansion has only a small collection, not easily accumulated. In recent years, I’ve instructed the mansion to gather and find it, but the results are limited. It seems we need to see if the Tang Imperial Court has a significant collection."

Lei Jun contacted the Tang Imperial Court and the results were somewhat unexpected.

The items do exist.

Dragon Scale Jade is rare and precious, and the amount needed by Celestial Master Lei right now is substantial, making it particularly hard to find.

Fortunately, the Tang Imperial Court has sufficient reserves.

"After a bit of sorting, it will be sent to Dragon Tiger Mountain; rest assured, Celestial Master." Zhang Hui said.

Originally heading to enjoy life in the Great Ming, he recently returned to the Great Tang side.

The reason Zhang Hui returned secretly was because...

Empress Zhang Wantong secretly left the Imperial Capital Luoyang.

The figure currently occasionally seeing officials in the Imperial Capital Luoyang is a manifestation of her literary talent and supernatural ability.

In some instances, Zhang Hui even covers for her.

He did not hide anything from Celestial Master Lei Jun: "My aunt is traveling far, and I am not sure of her specific whereabouts currently, but she is no longer in the mortal realm of Great Tang."

Lei Jun did not inquire further: "I will keep it confidential for her."

With the diffusion of the nation’s destiny, the empress leaves the Imperial Capital Luoyang once more, no longer causing the mountains and rivers’ shaking scene as before, making it more convenient for her private affairs.

However, in previous years, she remained in the Imperial Capital Luoyang peacefully.

Evidently, in this regard, Zhang Wantong, Xu Yuanzhen, and Tang Xiaotang all have a significant impact.

Therefore, her private journey this time seems exceptionally special.

Could it be due to the early awakening of Venerable Shan Zhihui in the Sumi? Lei Jun speculated in his heart.

He did not probe further, concentrating in tranquility, continuing with his own cultivation.

...

Netherworld Yellow Springs.

Between heaven and earth, there’s a world of gray and white, with occasional faint blue glows emerging.

Silence pervades, the Water of Wangchuan River flows quietly.

The surrounding environment has largely returned to its former state, unlike a dozen years ago when the tides of Wangchuan surged, and the Stygian River overflowed, resembling the collapse of heaven and earth.

From beginning to end, the deathly silence of Fengdu City standing atop the Solitary Mountain seems unchanged.

Ji Yao, the Sect Leader of Inner Mount Shu, stands silently on the city wall of Fengdu, his gaze sweeping over Fengdu and the surrounding areas.

Within Fengdu City, both the disciples of Inner Mount Shu and Fengdu itself are preserved.

However, outside Fengdu City, to this day, the previous endeavors of Inner Mount Shu in the Netherworld have not yet recovered their primordial qi.

"Sect Leader Brother." Inner Mount Shu Elder Tian Lingfeng appeared.

Ji Yao: "Any new progress with the Heavenly Birds and Terrestrial Beasts Mirror?"

Tian Lingfeng: "It’s all thanks to Sect Leader Brother capturing a Great Demon from the Ninth Heavenly Layer in that Great Song mortal realm, benefiting from it; now the Heavenly Birds and Terrestrial Beasts Mirror can be considered complete."

If more new gains can be made in the future, it would naturally be excellent.

"The Five Declines Great Path Bell is stable, the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls is restored, and now with advancements in the Heavenly Birds and Terrestrial Beasts Mirror, our sect’s position in the Netherworld is finally somewhat stable," Ji Yao said.

Tian Lingfeng stood silently without speaking.

The Heavenly Birds and Terrestrial Beasts Mirror is his life-bound magic treasure.

As a cultivator from the Daoist Artifact Refining Sect, achieving such a powerful treasure not only makes him formidable in a duel of magic but also aids Tian Lingfeng himself in cultivation and advancement.

However, without the support of Ji Yao and the entire Inner Mount Shu in the Netherworld, he would be hard-pressed to refine this treasure.

Yet, Sect Leader Ji Yao himself invested countless efforts into his own life-bound treasure, the White Bone Divine Boat, which disassembled and sank into the Wangchuan.

Even though the Yellow Springs Lethe has now returned to peace, the White Bone Divine Boat cannot reappear; the supreme treasure has completely collapsed.

Ji Yao himself suffered from this previously, barely recovering in the past few years.

This consumed a lot of Inner Mount Shu’s reserves.

Although Ji Yao set out personally and went to that Great Song mortal realm to seek opportunities, the remnants of captured souls and blood qi still struggled to fill the previous large gap.

Now, while the Heavenly Birds and Terrestrial Beasts Mirror has made progress and Tian Lingfeng’s cultivation has grown, the remaining parts of Inner Mount Shu seem to be lacking resources and materials.

Lu Changpeng, a same-school junior brother at the Eighth Heavenly Layer’s completion, still has not made the final step forward.

The daily cultivation, artifact refining, and treasure crafting of other heirs of Inner Mount Shu also appear to be constrained by lack of resources and materials.
