Seeing this, Zhang Rongfang finally understood in his heart....
This is the most precious part of the secret vault.
This secret is probably what the Eastern Sect has been hiding deep down.
This is the last page.
It is also the biggest secret of the entire spiritual transformation system.
’The core of everything is the group of divine statues, isn’t it?’ Zhang Rongfang rembered this information in his heart, thinking that perhaps in the future, he might have the opportunity to slowly verify it.
Putting away the docunt, he glanced around and quickly spotted a long, narrow blade leaning against a treasure chest in the corner of the wall.
This blade looked jagged, its shape extrely strange.
Upon closer inspection, Zhang Rongfang was surprised to discover that the sword was made entirely of bronze-colored statue fragnts fused with a special black tal.
He walked over and reached out to grip the sword handle.
The sword had no hilt, and the 1.7-ter-long blade was entirely inlaid with various fragnts of statues.
These fragnts were clearly not of the sa style. They must have co from different statues.
Lifting the sword, Zhang Rongfang noticed two carved characters on the handle.
’Tianxia’ (All Under Heaven).
As he lifted the sword, he saw a thin sheet of paper attached to the back of the blade.
The paper had so writing on it.
Removing the thin paper, he examined it closely.
’Tianxia Sword, unfinished, can be used for the final strike after spiritual explosion.
Originally intended to be presented to the royal family, intercepted for unknown reasons, available for anyone fated to find it.’
The handwriting was that of the Celestial Maiden.
Without thinking, Zhang Rongfang understood that this should be one of the secret treasures of this vault.
A weapon that allows an ordinary person to harm spiritualized beings.
This weapon was countless tis more precious than the gold and silver around it.
"So how about it? Have we found everything? All the items should be here. The testing site shouldn’t be here; this place is just for storing test records," Zhang Yunqi approached and said in a deep voice.
"If there are indeed three secret vaults, I wonder what the other two hold?" Zhang Rongfang swung the Tianxia Sword lightly as he spoke.
This sword, seemingly made of many fragnts, appeared easy to break apart.
But when actually wielded, it imparted an extrely solid and complete feeling.
However, it seed the blade itself, made of bronze statue fragnts, was not sharp and was rather dull.
"This sword, made entirely of candle pieces... truly...." Zhang Yunqi, upon seeing the sword, clicked his tongue in admiration.
"Candle pieces?" Zhang Rongfang asked in confusion.
"Yes, these are parts used to assemble worship statues. We generally call them candle pieces," Zhang Yunqi explained, "This na has existed for a long, long ti, though I don’t know why."
Zhang Rongfang nodded, silently noting this term.
"Shall we head out?" he asked.
Having seen all the information here, staying longer was pointless and greatly increased the risk of being discovered.
"Alright."
Zhang Yunqi nodded.
The two quickly took the docunts and left the cave.
The key was reinserted and turned, slowly closing the cave entrance.
Watching the cave disappear, Zhang Rongfang’s mind remained entangled with thoughts.
The Eastern Sect’s experints beca increasingly cruel and inhumane. Eventually, they were presumably suppressed by the Spirit Court.
At the sa ti, human forces outside of spiritualized beings gradually began to oppose their increasingly brutal thods.
This might be the fundantal reason for the complete downfall of the Eastern Sect today.
However, regardless, they left behind extensive information on how to deal with spiritualized beings for the world.
"Brother Yunqi."
Upon returning to the mountain wall’s crevice, Zhang Rongfang looked out over the moonlit forest and was suddenly overco with emotion.
"You say, even when they combined all the strength of the Eastern Sect, they couldn’t find a future path for us ordinary people.
Is there truly hope in this struggle against the path of worship?"
He sotis considered giving up.
With his attributes, perhaps even if he beca a worshipper, he might have a chance to break free from control and bondage.
But every ti, he recalled the scene of a gambler with a tal silver line piercing their brow.
Zhang Yunqi, having also seen the test docunts, was slightly silent.
Upon hearing Zhang Rongfang’s inquiry, he pondered briefly before slowly responding.
"Although it’s difficult, haven’t we found a way now? How to completely kill spiritualized beings, and where their true weaknesses lie?"
He paused.
"Although I don’t understand why they didn’t make these secret pieces of information public... we certainly aren’t without hope."
"Yes..." Zhang Rongfang continuously contemplated how to truly deal with spiritualized beings.
He now had a weapon, and with his strength, he might rely on extended ti to continually kill one spiritualized being.
But this was too slow, too slow.
Even worse, spiritualized being death counts could recover!
Gazing at the mirror-like lake water, nurous thoughts crossed Zhang Rongfang’s mind.
’In tests, mastering top-tier Hard Skill to the extre can slightly withstand spiritual line impacts.
If I could gather all top-tier Hard Skills, could I then completely disregard the impact of spiritual lines during spiritual explosions?’
’But in this way, the body’s orifices such as ears, eyes, and nose remain indefensible.’
The spiritual lines infiltrate everywhere, and there are too few places Hard Skill can defend against...
This idea was quickly dismissed by Zhang Rongfang.
Imdiately following, was the second thought.
’Then, thinking reversely, why must the spiritual lines return to the Spiritualized body? Why would using a special weapon to anchor its corpse prevent the return of spiritual lines, thus causing them to perish completely?’
’The answer is, there must be sothing different in the Spiritualized body that allows spiritual lines to exist within it for a long ti.’
’Then what is this difference?’
Zhang Rongfang suddenly thought of the cultivation pursuit all within the Great Dao Teaching strive for.
What does the cultivation increase?
It’s vitality!
’Could it be that the survival of the spiritual lines is basically dependent on the vitality of the Spiritualized body? Or in other words, so kind of biological energy substance gained after worshipping deities?’
Unlike people of this era, Zhang Rongfang ca from a ti that had already stepped into a world of extre microcosms.
Therefore, in terms of fundantal understanding, he far surpassed everyone of this era.
’So, if I can directly destroy this type of environnt within the Spiritualized body, would I then be able to indirectly kill the Spiritualized being?’
He pondered silently in his heart.
’Moreover, why can the fragnts of idol, that is, candle residues, serve as the last weapon, giving the Spiritualized being the final blow, while also preventing the return of spiritual lines?’
Nurous questions and all sorts of conjectures kept spinning in Zhang Rongfang’s mind.
Regarding the records of the experintal docunts, he actually held a skeptical attitude.
Unless he personally conducted the sa set of experints and obtained the sa result, only then would he believe it more firmly.
Without verification, he didn’t trust the crude experintal data conducted by others much.
’Forget it, the experint ntioned that the top martial arts techniques from each sect, those focusing on body training, were sowhat useful. Since that’s the case, I’ll first collect martial arts from various sects and focus on practicing them.’
Others can only practice one martial art alone due to limited ti and talent.
But he is different. With his attribute panel, he can completely turn himself into a patchwork monster.
The most top-level body-training martial arts from various sects could all be concentrated on himself.
"What’s your plan next?" Zhang Yunqi asked in a deep voice from the side.
"Practice martial arts, then find a chance to verify whether those docunts are real?" Zhang Rongfang answered earnestly.
"Practice martial arts..." Zhang Yunqi’s eyes clearly showed disappointnt.
Reading the docunts had evidently also greatly impacted his worldview.
The various execution experints recorded in the docunts and the final state of the Spiritualized being.
All of these made him increasingly lose faith in martial arts.
Where exactly does the future path lead?
No one knows.
He stood by the lakeside, his mind was ssy and confused, standing dazed.
Zhang Rongfang turned back to say goodbye, seeing this scene, sighed inwardly, and did not disturb him.
After clasping his hands in a salute, he turned around and climbed up the mountain wall silently to leave.
Having witnessed such brutal results, how much confidence does the Rebel Sect still have in its initial revenge? From now on, it will be up to them.
Leaving the depths of Huangjing Mountain without stopping, Zhang Rongfang quietly returned to his residence.
At this mont, Far Star Residence was already bustling with activity.
It seed that Princess Yongxiang had returned.
Throughout the half-hill courtyard.
Except for the courtyard where Zhang Rongfang lived, the other courtyards were bustling.
From afar, the other courtyards were brightly lit, with shadows of people moving hurriedly in and out.
A thick dicinal aroma wafted through the air, accompanied by low moans of pain and teeth-gritting.
Zhang Rongfang waited in his courtyard for a long ti, yet he didn’t see his three guards return.
He had a faint feeling that sothing was off.
Imdiately, he got up and headed out, along the dim mountain path towards the main courtyard of Far Star Residence, where the Commandery Princess resided.
However, he hadn’t walked halfway when he was blocked by layers of defense officers and soldiers.
"The Commandery Princess is currently in secluded recovery and is not seeing any visitors at this ti. We ask for the Guardian’s understanding." The one in charge of the defense was a stranger Zhang Rongfang had never seen before.
"Who are you? Who sent you to be responsible for the Commandery Princess’s safety?" Zhang Rongfang stood in the dark, a hundred ters away from the main courtyard, and asked in a deep voice.
"I am Zhao Chengzhi, a mber of Snow Rainbow Pavilion’s Xuanshi Guard, only responsible for the Commandery Princess’s safety and protection." The person replied quickly with a cold voice.
"Snow Rainbow Pavilion’s Guard?" Zhang Rongfang’s heart skipped, recalling the two elite fighters from Snow Rainbow Pavilion who had been following him.
Clearly, there had also been elite fighters from Snow Rainbow Pavilion following Princess Yongxiang all along. They had just remained hidden from detection until now, when the critical dangerous mont arrived, these people had to co forward.
Judging from this, clearly, this borrowing people securing the commandery princess issue, perhaps...
Zhang Rongfang’s heart sank.
He gazed from afar at the direction of the commandery princess’s courtyard, which was brightly lit with many people coming in and out.
Intermittent strong dicinal aromas wafted out.
Sothing must have happened.
"Since they are experts from the Snow Rainbow Pavilion, I will co to visit her later."
Without further words, he turned away and left.
The journey was cold and deserted, evidently showing that although the Commandery Princess returned, the number of her personal guards had been greatly reduced.
Returning to his courtyard, Zhang Rongfang had yet to enter, and he saw a figure quietly standing at the doorstep. Judging by the back, it should be Chen Han!
"Chen Han!?" he called loudly.
The person swiftly turned and approached briskly.
The moonlight illuminated his face, revealing the figure to be Chen Han, who had been away for several days.
