"After all, the Security Army having the Celestial Punishnt Weapon is already enough to make one’s head ache, and if you add talismans to that... Haha, I guess many people will have sleepless nights."
"......"
After listening to what the two said, Chen Lu Si was silent for a mont before asking, "So what do you want to do?"
He didn’t think the two had called him over just to tell him he had beco a thorn in soone else’s side.
Xia Yue and Ji Xin heard his words and were silent for a while.
Then,
Xia Yue looked at Chen Lu Si and said first, "That depends on whether you are willing to beco a nexus between the Security Army, the Celestial Strategy Mansion, and Daoism. Although those several Daoists didn’t say it outright, it’s clear that they all know you can help them beco true Daoists or deprive them of the qualifications to beco Daoists...
And whether they are willing to admit it or not, now you, compared to Zhang Xiufeng, are indeed more like the number one person in Daoism.
This can be seen from the fact that those four old fellows voluntarily ntioned it to , and soone passed them the news of the Celestial Punishnt Weapon. They value you more than the Celestial Punishnt Weapon, or rather, the ’Daoist Lineage’ you helped them retrieve.
And the talisman is not like the Celestial Punishnt Weapon; it has already been exposed. Even if we guard it strictly, it still needs to rely on people from the Chamomile Alliance to keep it secret; only a few people currently know about it.
So, if you are willing to beco a nexus... create a ti gap, and when everyone is focused on the Celestial Punishnt Weapon, equip the talisman for the Security Army as well."
Xia Yue pointed to the talisman on the table and continued, "Then... completely resolve the historical problems. Be it the Self or those Advanced Empowerers still living in the past, wipe them out in one go, even if not entirely, make sure they dare not show up for decades."
His tone was very calm when he spoke these words.
But Ji Xin beside him turned his head sharply, looking at Xia Yue, his eyebrows furrowed in apparent confusion.
Chen Lu Si was also stunned for a mont and then asked, "Can this really be done?"
Although he currently wasn’t particularly familiar with the affairs within the dostic Empowerers’ circle,
his experiences over this period had shown him that things weren’t so simple.
"It is possible."
Xia Yue gave Chen Lu Si a aningful look: "When the Celestial Strategy Mansion, Daoism, the Security Army... and even Buddhism align together, it can be done."
And this requires a ’Leader’ that everyone will trust.
Xia Yue added silently in his heart.
"......"
On the other side,
Ji Xin looked at Xia Yue, still puzzled.
"So what do I need to do?"
Chen Lu Si thought for a mont, having many doubts but not knowing how to ask, so he could only ask the most important question.
"Draw talismans, establish connections with those old fellows, and beco stronger."
Xia Yue replied with a smile: "I will persuade the others in the Celestial Strategy Mansion, and you don’t need to worry about the Security Army; I’ll handle that. What you need to do are the three things I just ntioned. You’ve already been doing the first two, so now you just need to beco stronger and... be careful. Although the matter related to the talisman hasn’t spread, I estimate that the existence of the Celestial Punishnt Weapon can’t be concealed, and we don’t know what those people will do or to what degree.
Because once the Self leaked the news of the Celestial Punishnt Weapon, it was no longer just a matter between the Celestial Strategy Mansion and the Self but a matter for the entire Empowerers’ community. This matter is no less significant than the initial establishnt of the Celestial Strategy Mansion.
Although Li Zheng assigned people to follow you, and Tang Language is by your side, ultimately, these are external forces. In my experience, in ergencies, one can only rely on oneself. Your combat power is decent now, but your tier is quite low, right?"
"Yes."
Chen Lu Si nodded.
Xia Yue continued to ask, "Has the Heart Stone not yet ford?"
"No."
Chen Lu Si shook his head: "...I previously condensed a Void Stone, but in the Illusion Dream of Jing, I almost exhausted the Spirit within , even draining the Spirit hovering around the heart... Afterward, the Stone remained in a state between reality and void, and while Spirit once again circled it, it never fully ford."
This was sothing that concerned him a lot.
Because his path toward rank advancent... was very peculiar.
When he previously advanced to the bleeding stage, there wasn’t much to say—it was just that the Spirit Ball had absorbed enough, and the Spirit within was ample, so it just naturally progressed.
However, the condensation of the Heart Stone’s illusory form... was due to Lin Ying licking his palm once.
This left him clueless about what to do next, as he couldn’t possibly let Lin Ying lick his palm again, right?
That would be too strange.
"Not fully ford?"
Xia Yue stroked his chin, then looked at Ji Xin: "To be honest, I’ve never experienced this, so it’s hard to make a definitive conclusion. Ji Xin, did you advance this way too? First condensing the illusory form of the Stone and then the actual Stone?"
"Everyone does it this way."
Ji Xin, with a blank expression, responded: "It’s just that the duration of this stage varies for everyone; it took four days."
"Is that so? At that ti... oh, I rember, I did have the illusory form of the Stone too, but mine went from illusion to reality in just a few minutes, so I didn’t pay much attention."
"......"
Ji Xin turned his head away, losing the interest to speak further.
"So... is this a normal situation?" Chen Lu Si looked towards Ji Xin.
"It should be... but I can’t guarantee one hundred percent certainty. If it were anyone else, I’d dare say so, but not with you."
Ji Xin shook his head: "How long has it been since you condensed the initial illusory form of the Stone?"
Chen Lu Si ntioned a rough tifra: "A little over a week, I think."
He rembered it was right after returning from the Chamomile Alliance, just before heading to the Imperial Capital, that he’d condensed the initial illusory form of the Stone.
