Chapter 1228: Chapter 473: Top-grade Mountain and River Page!
The divine statue of the Earth Guardian True Monarch showed signs of abnormality.
This statue was naturally forged by Ning Zhuo using the Zhu Family’s Divine Summoning Technique post-summoning.
In the next moment, divine light surged forth, descending upon Ning Zhuo.
The divine light carried a piece of information, which Ning Zhuo received in its entirety.
“The third Xingyun Trial of the Confucian Cultivators?” Ning Zhuo raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. This information came from Zhu Fenxiang, transmitted via her divine statue, which was essentially a relay from the Earth Guardian True Monarch.
“I see.”
“Zhu Guizhi and Zhao Hansheng have already reached an agreement in private. Hence, Zhu Fenxiang’s plan to participate in the Confucian Cultivators’ trial.”
Ning Zhuo immediately gained a direct understanding of the ins and outs of the situation.
Zhu Fenxiang’s stance was primarily influenced by the Earth Guardian True Monarch. So, upon learning of this matter, she immediately relayed this valuable intelligence to Ning Zhuo through the divine statue.
Just as Ning Zhuo was about to delve deeper, Wen Ruanyu’s Flying Message arrived.
It turned out that Chu Xuangu had once again relayed the discussions of the Confucian Cultivator group regarding Qin De to Wen Ruanyu through a Flying Message.
Upon learning of this, Wen Ruanyu felt Ning Zhuo should be informed, so he transcribed large sections and sent them to Ning Zhuo via Flying Message. In the message, he refrained from giving his own opinion, merely stating the facts, subtly indicating a test of Ning Zhuo’s discernment.
“Sigh… Qin De is indeed the biggest obstacle to the development of the Confucian Cultivator group.”
“The Confucian Cultivators originally designed this third Xingyun Trial based on my needs.”
“But with Gu Qing and Zhao Hansheng’s intervention, the scale of the Xingyun Trial has greatly expanded, deviating significantly from the original direction. I’m no longer the primary focus of the Confucian Cultivator group.”
Previously, Ning Zhuo deliberately purchased a large amount of Confucian Skills at the Commerce Hall as a clever way to inform the Confucian Cultivator group of what he needed.
However, Ning Zhuo was also considering whether it was time to give up this Xingyun Trial.
According to the content of this Xingyun Trial, Gu Qing had a significant advantage. Ning Zhuo didn’t see the need to waste time and effort on crafting two or three spirit papers, especially at the cost of losing reputation.
If he were to lose to Gu Qing, the latter would gain a victory, significantly diminishing the impact of his previous achievements at the Martial Arts Hall.
“Mountain and River Page, Heavenly Star Paper, Haoran Xuan, Heart Fire Essence, and Inheriting Dao Jade Page?!” Upon reviewing the intelligence relayed by Zhu Fenxiang, Ning Zhuo quickly dismissed the earlier notion of giving up.
The first four are all spirit papers, widely used and highly valuable in the market.
Learning the refining method of these papers is, in itself, a profitable endeavor. Undoubtedly, the number of cultivators participating in the trial will explode by then!
Chu Xuangu and Song Taosheng have indeed put a lot of effort into this trial, creating a grand and large-scale event.
“The key is the Inheriting Dao Jade Page, which can carry True Intent!”
“Can Zhao Hansheng really produce it?”
“He truly went all out to participate in this Xingyun Trial, sparing no expense.”
Ning Zhuo was well aware of the significance of the Inheriting Dao Jade Page!
Spirit papers capable of carrying True Intent are exceedingly rare, and every refining method is a closely guarded secret, treasured as a fundamental asset by each faction.
For instance, the Ning Family does not possess it.
Thus, the Ning Family’s foundational treasures are the Proud Snow Map and the Frost Conquest Diagram, which convey a certain sentiment.
Comprehending True Intent has no threshold and is guaranteed to succeed.
However, comprehending a sentiment is different. If there’s no mutual understanding, a cultivator facing an Understanding Law Map can only stare blankly.
With True Intent Spiritual Paper, one can create a True Intent Diagram. Regardless of a cultivator’s perception, even a fool could instantly glean and receive True Intent, rapidly elevating their realm.
“If I had the Inheriting Dao Jade Page, I could imbue it with my True Intent and then impart it to my big brother.”
Similarly, Sun Lingtong could do the same and provide feedback to Ning Zhuo.
Although True Intent might degrade, and the realm might even be compromised, a cultivator could still recompense through diligent practice over time.
“I possess an abundance of experience and memories, and I won’t lose myself.”
“With some intensive cultivation and sufficient review, the realm could likely be restored.”
“Perhaps, perhaps…”
“I could even directly impart True Intent to the Mechanical Puppet?”
Ning Zhuo had several Golden Core Level puppets with Spiritual Nature. Although this nature wasn’t sufficient for them to learn spells independently, could they absorb True Intent?
If the absorption of True Intent were successful, they would be seasoned, and it wouldn’t be impossible for them to comprehend spells or even create spells of their own.
With this thought, Ning Zhuo was profoundly moved.
This Xingyun Trial should not be missed!
The opportunity of the Inheriting Dao Jade Page is exceedingly rare. If you miss the opportunity, there’s no second chance.
“Of course. Since Zhao Hansheng has taken it out, he must be confident that others won’t be able to learn it. However, as his student, Gu Qing has likely already mastered it.”
“Therefore, he is using this trial to secure Gu Qing’s place as the first.”
“Even if others see through this, considering the rarity of the Inheriting Dao Jade Page, they will likely turn a blind eye and allow it.”
Ning Zhuo had already discerned Zhao Hansheng’s scheme.
He also anticipated the difficulty involved.
Despite this, he was willing to give it a try.
The third Xingyun Trial of the Confucian Cultivators!
Just as Ning Zhuo had anticipated, the workshop at the foot of the mountain was almost packed with people.
A large number of cultivators gathered here, eager to participate in the trial. In contrast, the Confucian Cultivators seemed small in number, mainly because their group was inherently not large.
Lu Zai, as the Trial Officer, presided over the trial.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he slowly ascended the stage.
This person appeared to be a middle-aged man, not very tall but unusually sturdy and steady.
