Capítulo 845: Chapter 841: Entering the Pavilion
Lan Mingxuan said, “This condition is a secret and is not to be shared.”
Wu Xun said, “But now it can be revealed.”
Chu Zhiyuan laughed, “Because I lent a hand, you’re able to speak of it now?”
He felt there was more to it than that.
As disciples of Fengtian Palace, these two were not so easily compromised.
Wu Xun said, “If Prince Consort, your heart is with Yujing, and this ti you wish to inform Yujing at all costs, naturally, we would not reveal it.”
Lan Mingxuan said slowly, “Being a Prince of Yujing, it is natural to lean towards Yujing, even as a Phoenix Prince Consort, probably only one out of ten parts is for the Phoenix, due to the Princess’s unrivaled beauty.”
Chu Zhiyuan chuckled, shaking his head, “That might be true for other Princes.”
If it were eldest or second brother, it would indeed be the case, but if it were third brother, it would be uncertain; perhaps eight or nine parts would lean towards the Phoenix, as he is too infatuated with the Twelfth Princess.
Wu Xun said, “From our observation, Prince Consort is equally balanced between Phoenix and Yujing.”
“Wrong, Yujing does not hold as much,” Chu Zhiyuan shook his head, “Phoenix holds six, Yujing holds four. As for this news, it’s not rely about Yujing and Phoenix. I don’t wish to see the Demon Clan and Demon Clan wreak havoc across the world; too many deaths would be my guilt.”
“Prince Consort is compassionate!” Wu Xun said solemnly.
They hadn’t considered this.
They only contemplated his heart swaying between Yujing and Phoenix, ultimately leaning towards which side.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled slightly, “It’s not about compassion, rely striving for a clear conscience, after all, I cultivate brightness, a heart stained by dust does not benefit cultivation.”
Lan Mingxuan said, “This is also the reason for Prince Consort’s rapid progress, indeed the Infinite Brightness Scripture is extraordinary!”
Fengtian Palace held this Ninth Prince, Prince Consort of the Twelfth Princess, in high regard, with detailed information.
Regarding Chu Zhiyuan’s rapid rise and his cultivation’s astonishing advancent, it was certainly clear.
They have been analyzing the reasons.
Now, seeing Chu Zhiyuan’s actions, they vaguely guessed the answer.
In line with the essence of brightness.
What is brightness? It’s about holding true to one’s heart in the darkness, maintaining the conscience of one’s nature.
Not just about being sunny.
Chu Zhiyuan said, “Mr. Lan, Mr. Wu, what is this condition?”
“An ancient bloodline.” Lan Mingxuan said softly, “Therefore, Prince Consort, upon entering, no need to force it.”
Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow, “Sothing like a Phoenix bloodline?”
“Yes.” Lan Mingxuan nodded.
Wu Xun said, “Prince Consort, you don’t possess an ancient bloodline, so it’s hard to gain anything.”
“Without an ancient bloodline, there’s no way to gain… a wasted trip?”
“There are so ancient spiritual objects, possessing unique rhythms, beneficial for Prince Consort’s cultivation, but acquiring these spiritual objects is quite arduous.”
“That works too.” Chu Zhiyuan nodded, “Is there a ti limit?”
“Prince Consort can stay as long as you wish, but not less than a month.”
“A month, I’m afraid that’s not enough.”
“As Prince Consort wishes.”
“If you obtain multiple spiritual objects?”
“That will depend on Prince Consort’s capabilities, no matter how many, our palace will not interfere or say a word.”
Chu Zhiyuan laughed, “So generous?”
“Spiritual objects go to those whom fate decides,” Lan Mingxuan said, “Our Fengtian Palace acts according to destiny.”
Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded.
——
Lan Mingxuan and Wu Xun’s injuries recovered quickly; half an hour later, they already appeared outside a bamboo forest.
Green Bamboo like the sea.
A gust of wind blew past, stirring green waves.
The entire mountain seed like just a re wave in the vast green ocean.
Following the two, he took a step forward, his vision flickered but soon returned to normal.
Chu Zhiyuan already knew he had stepped into a Grotto Heaven.
The mountain covered by the bamboo forest before him wasn’t the sa mountain he had seen earlier.
The landscape had changed subtly, almost imperceptibly.
If not for his keen senses, he would have missed this change.
“Prince Consort, shall we head to the Spirit Communication Pavilion?”
“I wish to see the Candle Nether Mirror, how about it?”
“This…”
Lan Mingxuan and Wu Xun imdiately looked troubled, finally shaking their heads with a wry smile.
Chu Zhiyuan said, “Too abrupt?”
“Forgive us, Prince Consort, the Candle Nether Mirror is never shown to outsiders, besides, it isn’t a physical object.”
Chu Zhiyuan was curious, “Hmm—?”
Wu Xun said, “Outsiders cannot see the Candle Nether Mirror.”
Chu Zhiyuan grew more curious.
Wu Xun said, “The Candle Nether Mirror is a Spiritual Treasure, already fused with the Palace Master. When the Palace Master activates it, it projects into a person’s mind, as if they’re within it, close at hand.”
Chu Zhiyuan was increasingly intrigued by the Candle Nether Mirror.
Lan Mingxuan said, “Currently, the Candle Nether Mirror has issues and can’t project, so Prince Consort can’t experience it.”
Chu Zhiyuan said, “Is the Palace Master alright?”
“The Palace Master is fine.” the two quickly said.
Chu Zhiyuan showed a skeptical expression.
Lan Mingxuan said, “Though the activation of the Candle Nether Mirror burns lifespan, the Palace Master’s lifespan is long; its issue is not due to lifespan.”
“Then what is the problem?”
“According to the Palace Master, it’s because the spiritual energy is exhausted and it can’t operate.”
“Doesn’t the Palace Master’s True Yuan fuel the Candle Nether Mirror, how can it be exhausted?”
“The spiritual energy consumption of the Candle Nether Mirror is enormous. The Palace Master only provides a small portion; the majority cos from the external world or previously stored energy, which is now depleted and can’t function.”
Chu Zhiyuan slowly nodded, “In the end, it’s due to the thinning nature’s spiritual energy, caused by the Demon and Monster Clans.”
“Indeed!”
“Alright, let’s head to the Spirit Communication Pavilion.” Chu Zhiyuan nodded helplessly.
His eyes fell on a mountain peak.
Apart from the mountain veiled by green waves, distant peaks stretched endlessly.
One of the peaks had a white pavilion standing proudly atop, seeming to overlook the surroundings.
Though it was still, looking at it gave the impression it was gliding through the sea of clouds.
The surrounding clouds seed to rush by.
At this mont, sunlight broke through the cloud cover, illuminating the peak.
The pavilion radiated seven-colored light, akin to a sacred treasure with auspicious mists hovering.
The two followed Chu Zhiyuan’s gaze and said, “That is the Spirit Communication Pavilion.”
Chu Zhiyuan marveled, “What extraordinary presence, this Spirit Communication Pavilion is a treasure in itself, isn’t it?”
“To endure through the ages, it naturally is a treasure,” Lan Mingxuan said slowly, “It’s said to have originally been a Demon Suppressing Tower.”
Chu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow.
Lan Mingxuan said, “Thus, unless you’ve slain enough from the Demon and Monster Clans, you cannot enter.”
Chu Zhiyuan, unable to wait, said, “Shall we proceed then?”
“After you, Prince Consort.”
The two smoothly led the way.
The three of them crossed mountain after mountain, feeling the vibrant life force and abundant spiritual energy emanating from them.
Standing by the bamboo forest earlier, it wasn’t evident, but leaving the bamboo forest made the difference inside palpable.
Truly worthy of Grotto Heaven, its spiritual energy rivaled Yujing Cave Heaven.
Finally arriving at the pavilion, Chu Zhiyuan exclaid in awe, “What a tall tower!”
This octagonal white jade tower, nearly twenty ters high, made one feel insignificant standing beneath it.
The tower was built of white jade, adorned with intricate patterns, faintly showing signs of age and ti.
The two placed their palms on a piece of white jade, gradually turning transparent, saying as they operated, “Prince Consort, please enter.”
A Light Gate gradually ford in front of Chu Zhiyuan.
