The authority of the Artifact Spirit in the Jade Book Tower is also determined by the Emperor himself.
Unless the Emperor himself goes mad, this thod fundantally eliminates the possibility of conspirators causing trouble.
The Jade Book Tower is not only an operating system and case, but it is also insurance for cultivators.
If so unexpected event really occurs, such as an external attack on the Jade Book Tower causing structural damage.
Then all the costs will be borne by the Artifact Spirit of the Jade Book Tower, which will ensure the safety of the cultivators within and safely escort them out of the illusion realm.
This is its underlying logic as an Artifact Spirit.
At the sa ti, when implanted into the illusion realm, the Jade Book Tower itself has another safeguard.
Which is that when there is danger in the illusion realm within the Jade Book Tower, the magical artifact will directly fail, unable to start, until the issue with the illusion realm is resolved by the Emperor himself.
Under this design, even the Emperor himself cannot implant an illusion realm that could harm a cultivator’s divine soul.
...
The Jade Book Tower pointed to the pillar in the center of the hall and said, "Theoretically speaking, if you wish, you could create a second or third Jade Book Tower, but the core of the illusion realm is only one, which is this pillar.
"I do not have the design blueprints and refining steps for this pillar, nor do I know its principles. I can only confirm that there is no problem with the illusion realm within, otherwise, I wouldn’t be here talking to you.
"His Majesty, I an the Emperor, modified my authority. After the fiftieth layer, I can only perform two operations: protection and departure, all other operations are autonomously run by the illusion realm.
"I am not aware of his reasons for doing this. So even if the hidden secret is truly important, you have no choice but to explore it on your own.
"I’m sorry."
Listening to the explanation from the Jade Book Tower, Zhang Ze asked another question.
"What kind of person was the Last Emperor of Dongqi?"
Regarding this monarch who instigated war and destroyed the Central Continent, people today do not have a very favorable opinion of him.
Not to ntion the historical books of the Six Sects, just speaking of a few who directly experienced that ti, their fragnted mories of the Emperor were not high either, like blind n feeling an elephant.
Chen Qianhu’s uncle’s evaluation was, a madman.
Stone Girl Xiaoxuan’s evaluation was, a pervert who created and imprisoned the Stone Beauty.
The giant tortoise Zhu Luo said, that was a silent child.
But when it cos to the Jade Book Tower, the answer changes sowhat.
The Jade Book Tower ’looked’ at Zhang Ze. Since waking up, Zhang Ze was the first to ask him this question.
After thinking for a while, the Jade Book Tower spoke.
"I can’t rember clearly, but His Majesty...he was a good man."
The Jade Book Tower’s answer seed unreasonable.
Because regardless of an emperor’s capability, as long as he is the emperor, he shouldn’t be a good person.
But the Jade Book Tower spoke with utmost seriousness.
After saying this, the spiritual qi within the Jade Book Tower began to rhythmically move, soon surging like ocean waves.
If the Artifact Spirit could dream, it would likely be returning to the Divine Capital Baiyujing of the past, back to the Baiyujing where jade steps gave birth to white dew and peach blossoms filled the Divine Capital.
But now, Baiyujing has beco a dead land in the Central Continent.
"Sorry, I got distracted, is there anything else?" The spiritual qi within the Jade Book Tower cald down.
"Can you take and my master to the fiftieth layer for a look? It’s not a problem, right?" Zhang Ze asked.
"No problem, please follow ."
...
The space within the Jade Book Tower defies conventional logic, the space on the fiftieth layer is vast, yet within the empty hall, there is only a clear spring.
No one knows where the water cos from, nor where it goes.
"After the fiftieth layer, which layer you can reach is entirely random, you should know this. Step into the water, and you can enter the illusion realm after the fiftieth layer."
Looking at the clear spring ahead, Zhang Ze tugged at his master’s sleeve, "Master, I want to ask you sothing, does there exist a spell in this world that can manipulate ti at will?"
Li Guanqi thought for a mont, then said, "It depends on what you an. If with humans as anchors..."
Li, like a reincarnated Einstein, chattered on with Zhang Ze, and Zhang Ze appeared to understand, nodded and said.
"I see, but what I’m asking is, is there anyone who can wash their hands and feet in the river of ti, freely swim, and co and go between the future and the past?"
"No way, you should read fewer of Wang Buyu’s stupid little stories. Not to ntion what a river of ti even is, if it does exist, it would be a ans above the Mahayana level, or even higher."
Zhang Ze scratched his head, pondering as he looked at the clear spring.
"Master, what did your ancestors do?" Zhang Ze asked again.
"Why are you asking so much? My great-grandfather was a tin craftsman, beyond that I don’t know, why?" Li Guanqi said.
"I was just thinking about going in for a look, this logic of entering the illusion realm after the fiftieth layer might be related to bloodlines or family. If your ancestors were prominent, wouldn’t that let the disciple have a big chance?" Zhang Ze rubbed his fingers, looking at his master.
"Why don’t you ask yourself, aren’t you supposed to be a Heavenly Destiny Person?" Li Guanqi teased.
"Master, you’re joking, my family doesn’t even have a genealogy, and who would dare claim to be a Heavenly Destiny Person in our Sword Sect?"
Zhang Ze had already learned from his junior sister about the Sword Sect’s ancestor arguing in dreams with the legendary Heavenly Destiny Person.
Although it had nothing to do with him, throwing around the term ’Heavenly Destiny Person’ seed to be asking for trouble.
While these two straightforward, humble master and disciple intended to casually take a look inside, soone stealthily approached from behind.
