Chapter 954 Open

The continuous rain failed to dispel the prosperity of the capital.

The sudden announcement that the Qionghua Banquet would be held two days earlier still surprised everyone who already knew the time.

Even ordinary people in Shendu felt that something was wrong.

But now that the matter has been determined, no one can say anything more.

The venue for the Qionghua Banquet was the Yulin Garden, a royal garden in the outer city.

The forces that were originally coming for this exchange had already arrived in advance, and the young disciples from all the major sects had also arrived.

For this banquet, the Jin Emperor Zhao Mingyu, who was rumored to be unwell, personally presided over it.

All eleven bigwigs from the Dajin Political Affairs Hall were present!
This specification is unprecedented!
The Political Affairs Hall of Dajin decides the entire trend of Dajin. It is usually composed of one representative from each of the eight great families of Dajin, and another three seats held by the Zhao family.

For the policies concerning world affairs, the royal family must obtain the approval of the majority of the aristocratic families.

Yulin Garden is a royal garden in the outer city, located beside a lake. Below it is a gurgling river, flat land on the shore and a mirror-like lake, and in the distance is a fruit-scented forest.

Far away from the hustle and bustle of the capital, it feels like a paradise, yet it retains the majesty of a royal garden.

The interior is spacious enough to accommodate many young talents.

The young talents who were invited to attend the Qionghua Banquet this time, in addition to their outstanding strength and talent, almost all have powerful backgrounds.

Ordinary young masters are not even qualified to participate!
Tao Yu also sat directly in the carriage arranged by Su Li and slowly headed towards the garden.

Originally, the old emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, Zhao Mingyu, wanted to meet Tao Yu in advance, but was directly rejected by Tao Yu on the pretext that he was too lazy to meet him.

This time at the venue, Tao Yu met the Emperor of Jin for the first time.

Zhao Mingyu looked ordinary, with loose bags under his eyes and obvious fatigue.

However, he has an air of majesty and a kingly demeanor.

However, now that he had deified the power of [Humanity] once and had absorbed and digested a lot of the mysteries of the “Golden Book of the Human Emperor”, Tao Yu could see Zhao Mingyu’s problem at a glance!
“How did this guy lose his status as the emperor…”

Tao Yu raised an eyebrow.

The old emperor still has a strong remnant of an imperial aura, but this is only the accumulation of his many years as emperor. The throne, which should have brought him an endless supply of humanitarian power, has disappeared.

Now he has consumption but no source, but the time is still short and others cannot discover it for the time being.

“It turns out that after all this time, something bad will happen to the gods, and you also have a share of the credit.”

Tao Yu laughed in his heart.

Although it is still uncertain whether this is the fuse, the Zhao family seems to want to use the opportunity of hosting the Qionghua Banquet to do something.

“Want to break through the Dharmakaya…”

Tao Yu’s mind turned, and he guessed most of it.

The throne was suddenly passed on secretly, perhaps to provide an opportunity for someone from the Zhao family to achieve a half-step Dharmakaya breakthrough.

The blessing of the throne is still of great help to those who practice the humane skills. It is enough to increase the success rate during the critical period of breaking through the Dharma body.

However, Tao Yu did not point this out, but just bowed to Zhao Mingyu out of politeness.

“Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor, and to all of you.”

In response to Tao Yu’s arrival, the young talents who had already entered the scene, and even the eleven ministers of the Council of State, all looked at him with scrutiny and began to look him up and down.

Is this the descendant of Yuanshi?

He is truly a talented person.

With the introduction that the other party had brought out before, and confirmed by the grandmaster who had reached the half-step Dharmakaya level, this was definitely some extremely profound and unique skill, and the other party might be telling the truth!

It is precisely because of this that this has indeed aroused the interest of most of the noble families and sects in the world.

“I am a straightforward person and I like to save time. Have you brought all the skills?”

Tao Yu glanced at everyone present.

Such straightforward words really made many young people feel suffocated.

The lucky champion Fan Changmiao couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
“Master Hong, do you really accept all kinds of skills? What if a disciple of the Demon Sect comes to you to exchange in the future? Will you not be able to do so?”

Tao Yu glanced at the top scholar with a calm look.

Although this guy’s aura appeared normal on the surface, Tao Yu could see through his evil skills at a glance.

Someone from the Demon Sect became the top scholar?

It’s quite interesting.

However, Tao Yu didn’t want to make trouble at the banquet and complicate things. Just like he didn’t point out that the emperor had passed on the throne, he said in a calm tone:

“Buddha, Taoism, and the devil are all different paths to the same destination. As long as they can make up for the incompleteness of my skills, I will accept any skills.”

“Amitabha, everything in the world is just a dream, but before transcending the mundane world, it is still easy to be affected by the practice.”

Beside the prince, Shaolin disciple Xuan Zhen chanted Buddhist mantras with a compassionate face.

“That’s my business.”

Tao Yu didn’t care about their opinions and walked straight to the empty seat reserved for him and sat down.

“Then, let’s get started.”

Although it has been rumored that Master Hong Xuanji himself has broken through to the outer scene, his maid is even a top master who has crossed the first level of the ladder.

But there were several master-level players on the scene, including Sima Shi, the chief constable of the Six Gates who was half a step away from becoming a Dharmakaya.

In addition, the presence of the Emperor of Jin was such a strong presence, which was something no one expected.

However, the rhythm of this banquet has always been controlled by the other party, and the biggest gimmick is also on the other party, and it is indeed the dominant one.

However, the Emperor of Jin smiled slightly when he heard this.

“Mr. Hong is really straightforward, but this time we have invited the best people in the world, and I have also offered a small prize for everyone to ponder.”

Tao Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, vaguely feeling that it was indeed a good thing.

“Since you have good stuff, you can take it out. If the value is right, you can also use it as one of the conditions for exchange.”

After hearing Tao Yu’s words, Zhao Mingyu smiled even more.

“This rare treasure is called the ‘Wordless Stele’. It is said to be from the ancient heaven. Its value is close to that of a divine weapon. If you have just begun to learn the basics of cultivation and combine what you have learned, you will gain insights when you look at this wordless stele.

“In the past, the founder of the Japanese Dynasty transformed the Book of Shocking the World into human martial arts by observing the ‘Wordless Monument’. With the blessing of the power of all living beings, one can practice faster.”

As soon as the old emperor finished speaking, Tao Yu heard the children of the noble families suddenly whispering.

“So generous!”

“The ‘Wordless Monument’ is a royal secret treasure, priceless, and has never been shown to outsiders!”

“This is really worth coming this time!”

“It’s really exciting.”

“Thanks to Master Hong…”

“…”

Many people had surprise in their eyes; they didn’t expect to encounter such a good thing.

A stone tablet flew out from the old emperor’s hand, grew in the wind, and landed heavily in the middle of the garden.

The stone tablet is of an ancient style, with its surface covered with tiny cracks. There is not a single word or pattern on it, but it feels as deep as the sea, with no bottom visible.

Tao Yu took a look at it from afar and felt the mystery of this wordless inscription, as if it itself was communicating with the great Dao.

“The depths of the Nine Netherworlds and the top of the Nine Heavens are both places where the Other Side must personally reach to understand the changes in the avenues. This stone tablet might really come from the Nine Heavens. Is it an item containing the aura of the Tao that was created after the Nine Heavens were broken?”

Tao Yu had some guesses in his mind. After the Demon Lord attacked the sky, the Demon Lord on the other side was killed by the Emperor of Heaven alone. But then the Emperor of Heaven seemed to have attracted many people from the other side to besiege him, and the Nine Heavens were all shattered. However, no one knew what exactly happened.

This item might be something that was left behind back then…

–

If the Emperor of the Great Jin had taken out this inscriptionless stele at any other time, the representatives of the aristocratic families and sects present would probably have had some doubts.

Because people have never been so generous in the past. Even if the top families are qualified to exchange, they still have to pay a considerable price to see the inscriptions.

But this time it was originally exchanged with Tao Yu, and the young people in the family and sect could get it for free, so they were naturally happy about it.

Many representatives of noble families thought in their hearts that the royal family was quite generous and it would be a good idea to have them preside over this exchange.

Although this inscription was mainly used to exchange with Tao Yu, it had been taken out and the young people on the scene lined up to appreciate it.

Many people gained something and were surrounded by strange visions.

Especially the second to last one, “Mad Blade” Su Meng, who actually added another crack to the inscription after his realization.

This frightened the originally dignified emperor.

He was afraid that this secret treasure would be destroyed in his hands.

“It seems that this thing is not very strong. Understanding it may cause damage.”

Tao Yu joked and without giving the emperor time to react, he landed directly in front of the monument without any words.

Mysterious rhymes of Tao began to resonate with Tao Yu. Originally, Tao Yu relied on his amazing computing power and the deified power of [Humanity] to integrate into the “Golden Book of the Human Emperor”.

For someone at his level, the effect of this stone tablet should be average.

But Tao Yu actually saw on this stone tablet the process of a big tree taking root, sprouting, and growing vigorously!
Just like the growth of the World Tree, it pried open the Kabbalah Tree of Life that already had a structure in his body.

“Hmm~, the World Tree, the Avenue Tree, this can also become the supporting core of its own cave heaven, standing tall and upright…”

Tao Yu has his own kingdom of God, which reflects the heavenly cave.

Now we are beginning to incorporate the power of humanity into it!

Click~
When Meng Qi first realized the creation of the world, cracks appeared on the entire stone tablet.

Tao Yu also accelerated his comprehension of the Tao rhyme, and the next moment the wordless stone tablet covered with cracks suddenly shattered!

When cracks first began to appear on the inscriptionless stele, the emperor wanted to take it back out of grief.

As a result, Tao Yu not only showed no sympathy, but also stood up and kicked.

Although the effect was quite good, it also caused the already damaged monument without words to collapse and break.

Looking at the rubble on the ground in front of him, Zhao Mingyu seemed a little dazed.

Although he took out the inscriptionless stele this time, he just wanted to delay the time longer, divert attention, and buy time for the original King of Qi, Zhao Wuyan, to break through.

But he never thought that the family heirloom would go bad!

This really makes me feel heartbroken.

This was originally one of the foundations of the royal family. It was no worse than the legendary magic weapon, and even better in terms of effect!

How many times a year can the magic weapon be used?

But this monument without words can constantly inspire disciples!
With the help of this wordless stele and the power of humanity, the Zhao family has two half-step Dharmakayas, and there is no shortage of masters. They can also win over other masters like Sima Shi. This is a great foundation!

For a moment, Zhao Mingyu, who was feeling a little resentful for losing the throne, felt a black screen before his eyes.

Even if Zhao Wuyan succeeded in breaking through the Dharmakaya, the price would still be too painful…

“Oh, I was just wondering if this thing might not be very strong.”

Tao Yu savored the brief epiphany he had just had, and what he gained was quite a bit.

Now I have completely mastered the entire “Golden Book of the Human Emperor” and it fits perfectly with myself!
The power of humanity was under control as easily as with one’s own arm, and even the Human Emperor Sword seemed to communicate more clearly.

This made Tao Yu also look at Zhao Mingyu

“In that case, I will pass on the true meaning of the [Heaven-Flipping Seal] to you as compensation.”

As he spoke, Tao Yu raised his hand and sucked up a piece of broken stone from the inscriptionless stele into his hand. After injecting enough true meaning inheritance to comprehend four or five times, he threw his hand in front of Zhao Mingyu’s desk.

“It’s settled.”

Tao Yu’s words made Zhao Mingyu’s expression froze, and he stared blankly at the stone of true meaning inheritance on the table in front of him.

“Inheritance of the true meaning?! You have already completely mastered this unique skill of the Dharmakaya?”

Zhao Mingyu’s words also made everyone at the scene gasp.

If you want to master the basics of the Dharmakaya’s unique skills, you have to force it to be activated in advance.

When it comes to enlightenment, some geniuses have mastered it, such as Jiang Zhiwei and Meng Qi.

There is a huge gap between being able to master the basics and being able to skillfully pass on the true meaning!
Just like the grandmaster’s precious weapons, which can be infused with will to guard the family, a certain move usually requires a strong man of this level to leave behind its true meaning!

At the very least, you have to be a top master!
Could it be that Master Hong already possesses such strength? !
Everyone at the scene was shocked. No one expected that this person had already stepped over the first ladder!
But at the same time, their expectations for the Nine Seals of Yuanshi slightly decreased.

I thought it was similar to the Tathagata Palm, which could form the fundamental law of the Dharmakaya level by deducing one move.

Now it seems that it may be far inferior to the Tathagata Palm.

Zhao Mingyu looked at the stone in front of him that exuded an obscure aura, but he had no intention of using it himself.

If we cannot cultivate a master-level expert who can master the technique within a limited number of times, the inheritance of the true meaning will be cut off in the future.

“That may be fate. Perhaps it has reached the end of its service life.”

Although my heart is still bleeding with pain, the stone tablet has been destroyed. No matter how much I regret, it will be of no use. It is better to be more magnanimous.

As a king, Zhao Mingyu can control his emotions and expressions.

“That’s right, it would be nice if there were more.”

Tao Yu sighed, and for a moment, he began to yearn for places like the Nine Heavens and the Origin of the Nine Netherworlds.

If you have the chance, you should go there in person to experience it carefully.

Then, they entered the next sex scene.

Cui Qingyu from the Cui family spoke up
“May I ask how many seals Master Hong can leave behind?”

He is the representative of the Cui family in the Divine Capital, and also the brother of Cui Qinghe, the great master of the family, so he has an extraordinary status.

“As long as the items are valuable enough, I can keep as many as you want.”

Tao Yu naturally would not give a specific answer. How much you can get in exchange depends on your sincerity.

“Okay, then let’s take a look at the inherited skills of my Cui family first…”

Next, representatives from various families began to participate enthusiastically.

The sect representatives watched coldly at first, but after seeing the joy on the faces of the children of the noble families after completing the exchange, they were sure that what the other party was teaching was probably true!

Otherwise, those old foxes who know the goods will not be deceived.

Now it seems like we have entered an internal competition track, where people use their own skills to exchange for magical powers.

If you don’t follow up, just watch his family start to prosper.

Follow up and come up with your own fundamental law.

As more and more families are involved in the exchange, families with good relations will exchange corresponding text descriptions with each other to maximize the effect.

The representative from the sect finally couldn’t sit still anymore.

Now Xuantian Sect disciple, the top ten of the human list, ‘Five-sided Emperor Sword’ Yu Qing stood up and spoke

“Xuantian Sect’s Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor is for a complete set of the Six Seals of the Yuanshi Sect!”

The most important transaction at the moment is beginning to emerge.

Tao Yu was also slightly moved. Judging from the evaluation of Liudao’s skills, the value of “The Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor” passed down from the “Emperor of Heaven” might not be less than that of “The Golden Book of the Human Emperor”!
The “Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor” not only governs the way of humanity by the way of heaven, but also complements the “Golden Book of the Human Emperor”.

A very crucial point is that the authority over [time and space] that one has already mastered should complement it!

Even if you don’t have the Time Sword in your hand, the difficulty of learning it by yourself will not be greater than that of the “Golden Book of the Human Emperor”.

Even the disciples of the aristocratic families did not expect that the Xuantian Sect would be so courageous.

In fact, not to mention the disciples of other aristocratic families, even Yu Qing himself felt a little helpless.

He actually felt that his own “The Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor” was already a first-class martial art in the world and there was no need to do so. The sect even had no intention of sending anyone here at the beginning.

As a result, for some unknown reason, the Time Blade awakened, and it seemed that it felt an urgency for the Six Seals of the Origin, which led to his arrival and the exchange…

“If it’s the Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor, then of course it’s possible…”

Tao Yu nodded. The value of “Nine Seals of Yuanshi” must be higher than “Jade Book of Heavenly Emperor”, but he only had six seals in his hand and lacked the general outline, so he could use it for exchange.

Originally, Tao Yu had never been stingy when it came to his martial arts skills.

He was confident that his skills would improve faster than others and bring greater benefits!
“However, the Jade Book of the Heavenly Emperor is so easy to obtain. I’m afraid it is similar to the Human Emperor Sword. Is it the will of the Heavenly Emperor? Or is this big guy from the other side not dead yet…”

Tao Yu thought to himself that the other side was really too terrifying. It occupied the past, present and future. With just a little opportunity, one could be reborn from despair.

If the Human Emperor did not care about the human race and did not seek an afterlife, he might have a chance to escape!
The Emperor of Heaven may not be as aware as the Emperor of Man, and may make a backup plan…

But no matter whether it was an arrangement or a calculation, Tao Yu would definitely take all of it.

Unfortunately, although the Shaolin Temple is also interested, it has not even brought out the Yi Jin Jing, and the Xijian Pavilion and Zhenwu School have not come up with the fundamental methods to derive the corresponding moves.

However, the representative of the Zhenwu School spoke

“We cannot teach the sect’s foundational methods at will, but if Master Hong is interested, he can come to the Zhenwu Sect as a guest and exchange the inheritance of the true meaning for the opportunity to comprehend the inheritance of the true meaning of the Seven Swords of Heaven-Severing.”

Both the Seven Heaven-Cutting Swords and the Tathagata Palm have no general instructions and are difficult to use directly.

For these schools, the key point is the fundamental principles that are comprehended from them.

Although the inheritance of true meaning is also the core, it is not impossible to try exchanging it. Different people can feel different feelings from different sword moves.

Moreover, when one’s own strength reaches a certain level, one will need to have one’s own understanding of many things.

“It should be so.”

A smile appeared on Tao Yu’s face, and then he looked towards Xijian Pavilion and Shaolin Temple.

Both sides just paused slightly and did not give a direct response.

This exchange meeting is coming to an end.

What remains are some exchange agreements between the major families.

Although it would certainly be difficult for all the families to achieve sharing, it is still possible for a few families with good relations to make an agreement with each other and complete the text version of the communication.

But at this moment, a loud laugh suddenly came from the air.
“Haha, it seems I came at the right time.”

The sudden sound made the Grand Master Sima Shi stand up immediately with a solemn expression.

“Master Dharmakāya!”

“who is it?”

Cui Qingyu also stood up with a sword in his hand and reached out to grasp the magic weapon at his waist.

When necessary, the Cui family’s Dharma body can use magic weapons to attack from a distance.

Sima Shi can also activate the Divine Capital Formation with the magical weapon he was given.

Even a powerful Dharmakaya cannot act so recklessly in the Divine Capital!

They also knew that Cui Qinghe, Kong Wen and Chonghe were also there secretly.

If an evil Dharma body really comes, it will be dealt a heavy blow, and it may even leave one behind!
Such a big commotion should have attracted their attention, and they might be approaching now.

“I am Changle Gaolan.”

The newcomer paid no attention to the atmosphere here and descended towards the scene.

The Divine Capital Formation has been vaguely activated, and Gao Lan has also been included. If necessary, he can even be caught in a jar.

“Mad King Gao Lan?”

“He’s not dead!”

“And he also broke through and became a Dharmakāya?”

“…”

Gao Lan secretly broke through and achieved his Dharma body and returned. Moreover, as the king of Northern Zhou, he suddenly ran to Da Jin, which made everyone at the scene stunned and unable to react.

This is different from the evil Dharma body that was previously estimated.

Moreover, Taoist Chonghe’s Chunyang Sect is also within the territory of Northern Zhou. This time, he invited the other party over in the name of righteousness, but it would not be easy to ambush this mad king who has no bad reputation.

When Zhao Mingyu found out it was Gao Lan, a hint of envy flashed in his cloudy eyes.

They are all royal families, but the Gao family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty produced a Dharma body.

But judging from his appearance, it seems that his madness has not yet been cured.

“I’m not here with bad intentions. I want to discuss something important with you. You don’t have to be so defensive against me.”

After Gao Lan arrived at the scene, he glanced at Tao Yu.

However, he knew that Tao Yu did not want to reveal the Six Paths on his own initiative, so he had to do everything by himself. This was already agreed upon.

“Oh? Then what advice do you have for me?”

No matter how powerful Zhao Mingyu is, he is still the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty. His tone seemed calm, neither arrogant nor humble.

He did not lower his posture just because the other party was a Dharma body, nor did he have any hostility.

“I want to expose a great conspiracy and secret in the world, involving the mysterious ‘immortal’ and ‘myth’, and even the Lord of the Six Paths behind them…”

At the same time, new mission changes appeared in the minds of Meng Qi, Qi Zhengyan, Zhao Heng and Ruan Yushu at the same time.
‘Disrupt the meeting.’

In addition to this, outside the Divine Capital, several rays of light shot up into the sky again, and for a moment, a sea of ​​blood pressed towards the Divine Capital formation, as if to attach filth to the formation.

The Blood Sea Rakshasa took the first step!
As the evildoer attacked, Gao Lan, who had arrived earlier, seemed to have also been branded with the evil demon’s mark…
