Chapter 2866: Chapter 1333: Tai Chu Origin Book
Nine Heavens.
Nangong Jin brought Azhi forward as if walking on solid ground, while the surrounding Heavenly Tribulations couldn’t even get close to him.
"This incident caused our palace to lose face across the Five Continents and Four Seas, and even cost us a Venerable. After returning, I must account for it with the other Elders."
Suddenly, Nangong Jin spoke with a calm expression.
Azhi couldn’t help but tremble all over.
Jellyfish Palace suffered a crushing defeat in the East Continent. Although Yuan Ming’s life pacified the Righteous Path of the Human Race side, internally, someone must also take responsibility for this.
Among those involved, Han Ming has already ascended, and Ayue, as a Taishang Elder in the Void Refining Realm, has been confined at the Heavenly Sea Eye due to the Primordial Water Control Banner.
So, among the living, only she, Azhi, remains.
At other times, Azhi could still hope for protection from Ayue, her great-grandmother.
But this time, Ayue might just want her dead, to shoulder all the blame.
"Palace Master, please save me."
After thinking it through, Azhi didn’t hesitate at all, tears in her eyes, pitifully pleaded with Nangong Jin.
"Your Merfolk are quite arrogant in Heaven and Sea, but this time, you have been excessively arrogant. Additionally, it seems quite excessive to have two Taishang Elders mobilize for something so minor, you and Yuan Ming. Is there a reason I’m unaware of?"
Nangong Jin asked the doubts in his heart.
Within Jellyfish Palace, various aquatic groups led by Merfolk always hindered his command as a Sect Master from the Human Race, even in the Void Refining Realm.
With Han Ming’s ascendance and Ayue’s confinement, this is the best opportunity for Nangong Jin to wield absolute power. But before that, he still wants to find out the truth.
Azhi and Yuan Ming, both in Divinity Transformation, stepping out of Heaven and Sea, were obviously not just for a jade slip recorded in an alchemy recipe.
"Sect Master, if I tell you, can I survive?"
Azhi showed a hesitant look, the scene of Yuan Ming committing suicide in her arms had completely shattered her Dao Heart.
She feared she would also be required to die.
"Speak."
To this, Nangong Jin replied casually with two words.
Because according to Jellyfish Palace’s rules, upon returning, he could indeed sentence Azhi to death.
Now Azhi’s life and death are in his hands.
"It’s the Tai Chu Origin Book."
Azhi’s lips quivered, uttering a name that made even Nangong Jin’s expression change.
"What does this have to do with the Tai Chu Origin Book."
With Water Mother creating, evolving the Innate Five Great, it recorded the five Innate Great Dao in five Daoist Scriptures.
The Tai Chu Origin Book is one of them. It records the profound mystery of Innate Tai Chu.
The Five Great Taoist Books are the most precious legacy of Jellyfish Palace.
If one trains in the Five Great Immortal Light, they can even refine the Tianhe Dao Fruit left by Mother of Water, mastering the supreme power of opening the heavens and earth.
Thus, the Five Great Taoist Books were originally brought to the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm.
In Heaven and Mother of Water Palace, there are also these Five Great Taoist Books, copies left by Seventh Rank beings according to their own insights. But even so, they are the pinnacle of knowledge in Tianhe Realm.
"The Immortal book jade slip stolen by Yu Chan is actually the Tai Chu Origin Book left by the Upper Realm Ancestor for us Merfolk to understand."
Upon hearing Azhi’s words, Nangong Jin frowned and immediately asked, "Is it the true original of the Five Great Taoist Books?"
Azhi: "No, it’s the version the Ancestor copied after Harmonization from their own insights. But as it was solitary left for the tribe, violating the palace’s rules, it was disguised as the Immortal book jade slip. Only those cultivating corresponding techniques or who know the mantra can see the true appearance of the Tai Chu Origin Book."
"Yu Chan was originally grandmother’s maid. After learning of this, she wanted to escape her lowly status, and while grandmother was in seclusion, she stole it."
"For that reason, after the incident, Han Ming Taishang Elder would spare no effort, deploying the Curse Killing Technique to shatter Yu Chan’s soul."
After listening to Azhi’s words, Nangong Jin showed an enlightened expression.
The Merfolk Ancestor was one of the earliest beings following Mother of Water, also being among the first to Harmonize, but not the only one.
And the Five Great Taoist Books, as the foundation of Jellyfish Palace, theoretically, aside from Seventh Rank beings, Void Refining Realm cultivators can only comprehend them once.
If one gets insights from a single comprehension aligning with the Innate Five Great Dao, they might get a chance to understand the original. Furthermore, become a True Immortal Dao Seed that Jellyfish Palace focuses on nurturing.
For example, Nangong Jin, because of his insights into the Innate Taiyi Dao, he could withstand immense pressure and sit in the position of Sect Master of Jellyfish Palace.
The Merfolk Ancestor evidently hoped their descendants would achieve something, so they left behind a copied version of the Five Great Taoist Books in advance.
Compared to Nangong Jin and others, who had only one chance, the Merfolk in Void Refining could comprehend it countless times.
[No wonder with Han Ming’s talent, he managed to cultivate the Tai Su Immortal Light.]
One of Nangong Jin’s doubts was resolved.
Although they were both in Void Refining, Nangong Jin considered his talent far superior to Han Ming, but the latter not only achieved Divinity Transformation before him but also gained insights from the Tai Su Doctrine Book of Tianhe Realm’s Jellyfish Palace with only one chance, making him feel incredulous for over a thousand years.
So the truth is this.
"If this incident is exposed, even the one in the Spiritual Void Immortal Realm’s Jellyfish Palace would struggle to explain to the other True Immortal Dao Monarchs..."
